[Unexpected]

Lu Zixing is in trouble, right?

We searched through the city's refrigeration plants, we haven't found Miss Lu.

Lu Zixing, after you wake up,

whether you forgive me or not, I promise you.

I will always believe you.

But if you ask me whether I can stay in this world,

I really don't know.

But every time the relationship between Gong Cheng and Pei Encai gets better,

I can't help but think

that the day I'll leave this world is getting closer and closer.

In a love story, usually when the boy has to make the girl happy,

there are certain moves.

Pei Encai! I'm sorry!

You tricked me! You played me for a fool!

Then... are we okay now?

I've actually liked you for a long time.

- Sorry, Brother Su.- You don't need to apologize to me.

Actually, I've already found my happiness.

No matter how many lows you encounter in life, I will not separate from you.

I'm planning to stay in this world. I'm not leaving.

[Episode 15: This is how they tell you they love you.]

He Jie, why did you draw my new character dead?

Because, in my opinion, this character's design should be just like that.

He was betrayed and deserted by all. His girlfriend left him when he was at the lowest point of life.

Of course, he'd think that this world isn't wonderful.

Even if he chose to commit suicide and end his life, it would be normal.

Who said that? Who said that he thinks the world isn't wonderful.

He would struggle bravely and even counterattack.

By then, he will certainly think that this world is–

Yes, what you said is just right.

He should just die. He should just think that this world is not beautiful.

I will draw it again, okay?

You have a split personality? Just openly admitted the world is wonderful.

Say you enjoy your current blessed and joyful life. Is it really that hard?

Right now, you and I are not even on the same wavelength.

Here.

Rest a little.

I'll draw it.

Give me the pen.

Who'd have thought I'd really get this life. I'm actually here doing the work for you.

That'll teach you to mess up my character's ending.

Right, right. You're completely correct.

I'm just like that. I dig my holes and I have to fill them.

The pride of the nation in comics is doing your work for you, and also being your assistant.

Lu Zixing,

for a rookie comic author, you have a huge honor.

The pride of the nation in comics? Really?

More or less... around there.

Lu Zixing, your female lead has a mustache now.

He Jie!

Life is truly a marvelous thing. Sometimes accidents suddenly strike you in the most unexpected way.

Just like in the real world, I was pushed into this comic book world by Lu Zixing; dropping from the sky.

While now, as I keep hesitating whether I actually want to leave or not,

the door to the real world is sadly opening for me.

This ring is so beautiful.

Ah Cai, wait for me here a moment. I'll be right back.

Okay.

What is it?

It seems the moment I'll go back to the real world is getting closer and closer.

He Jie!

Lu Zixing,

from now on,

mind what you say.

And that door that has already closed on you,

in the life that's going to pass by an by in the days to come,

will once again throw new challenges at you.

[Countdown to the Engagement: 7 days]

What is this?

Sugar pills.

You're putting sugar pills into a pill bottle?

I put sugar pills into a pill bottle... to make it more convenient to put them in my bag.

My teacher said that the patient, in this case, should have died three months ago.

If you can still be alive now, it's just a miracle for medicine.

And your medicine. I've already found someone to investigate. It isn't a medicine that treats cancer at all.

Can you explain this to me?

I actually am hiding a lot from you.

What?

I have an excuse to be like this.

Why are you being like this?

Say it.

Xiao Xing,

I think something is wrong with Gong Cheng.

What do you mean?

What's wrong with him?

Billy!

Gong Cheng, don't you think this room's air conditioning is too cold?

Huh? Yeah, it's a little cold.

Turned it off, it won't be cold anymore.

If you're too scared, don't watch it.

- What a scare. What a scare.- Do you understand what I mean?

I roughly understand.

So, do you think he doesn't know how to be in love or does he just not like me?

I'm so obvious. Why can't he get the message?

I think Gong Cheng is a little slow-witted.

Then, what do I do?

Have you both ever kissed?

Then let's do this, I'll help you.

We'll start with trying for a kiss.

[The first move: The lure of ice cream]

[The second move: The attraction of big eyes]

Gong Cheng, it seems like something went into my eye.

Can you help me blow into it?

Ah Cai, there was something in your eye, but I pulled it out for you. Do you feel better?

That's my double eyelid sticker.(T/N: makeup trick to make the eye look bigger)

[The third move: The flavor of lip balm]

Gong Cheng, this is an order. Immediately have a taste of my lip balm flavor?

You're so weird, why are you making me taste this thing?

The flavor isn't good at all!

- I finally believe that you really don't understand love.- What do you mean?

Haven't you realized that the female and male leads you drew don't know how to date?

That's impossible. How can the leads I drew not know how to date?

Besides, whether they know or not, what does it have to do with me?

Come over here.

What is it?

Why put on lipstick when you're eating cake?

Where are you going?

You'd better run and help your male lead!

He is the same as you. A block of wood.

Get up. Can't you put some more effort? Gain some credit? Put more heart into it?

Can you not understand a girl's hint?

What hint?

Let me put it like this.

Guys need to take more initiative when it comes to love.

Use your manliness to go and conquer her!

Get up.

Tonight, go find her. Knock on her door, go to her room, sleep!

Say that again?

I said... In a bit go to her home,

knock on her bedroom door and tell her you want to be with her.

Understand?!

Do I really need to do this?

For your lifetime happiness.

I'm coming.

Why did you come to my house wearing this?

- To sleep.- To sleep?

Yeah.

Why are you coming to sleep at my house?

You. Are you going insane? You want to sleep in my bed?

We're already engaged. Why can't we sleep together?

We also slept together before.

How is that the same? We haven't even...

not even kissed before!

Don't worry, we won't kiss.

Xiao Xing,

say, did I make my decision too carelessly?

I haven't even been in a relationship and all of a sudden, I'm getting engaged.

Journeying towards the marriage hall.

You say, is there still time to regret it?

If I give Gong Cheng the ring back, will my parents kick me out?

Yeah, maybe.

Then, what should I do?

I don't know what you should do, either.

I don't even know what I should do.

Do you think it's good news to me that you got engaged?

Wh-What do you mean?

I mean... you getting engaged with a mind full of doubts

does not count as good news to me.

Thank you. You're still the best to me.

President Gong, bad news!

Manager Xu, knock on the door.

The chairman and the chairman's lady are back.

What are you looking at?

You don't even see anything when you play Mahjong!

Dad? Mom?

Manager Xu!

We are tired. Prepare lunch for us.

All right, Madam.

I think my idea is pretty good.

Though... I'm thinking... Here is Ah Cai, there is Gong Cheng, and the middle, there's a heart.

- Then, I'll write "We're getting married!"- Let me see.

But... I drew you a... a little ugly.

Quick! Draw well. Draw it over again.

I really drew it well!

- Bai Lian, quick!- I really didn't do it on purpose.

I'm almost at the finishing touch!

I didn't do it on purpose.

It's really so ugly.

Ah Cai, what did you draw?

What I drew is more of a girly and sweet style.

But... it seems it's a little too dramatic?

It's not. It's pretty.

- Gong Cheng, what do you think?- It looks nice.

Then, what did you draw?

That can't be, Gong Cheng. This is you and Ah Cai's engagement celebration.

Like this, it really has no festive feeling at all!

No, I think this is abstract beauty.

Xiao Xing, what did you draw?

A withering rose. Is that how she feels?

It's pretty good. It's just a tiny bit ominous.

Really?

I may... not be good at drawing these things.

Don't worry, I'll make a new drawing.

Okay, I'll collect them.

Director Gong! Good news! The Chairman and the Chairman's lady are back!

What are you all busy with?

We... We're designing invitation cards for Gong Cheng and Ah Cai.

No need. We've already decided on a design with the wedding planner.

Are these pretty?

Pretty.

Bai Lian, don't we need to buy something?

Uncle and Auntie, we're going to go buy something. We're leaving now.

We're leaving now.

Uncle and Auntie, see you.

Wait for me!

Prepare for the meal.

All right.

I'll tidy up a little.

Xiao Xing, check here. Is my heart still beating?

Don't be so anxious.

But before, I've always called them aunt and uncle.

Now... everything is different.

Don't worry.

Since this occasion is so formal, it will be best if Xiao Xing and I just return home.

No need, Teacher He.

This is just our parents meeting and having a meal.

Mom, Dad, Uncle, Auntie.

Mom, Dad, Uncle, Auntie.

Auntie, arrange for the in-laws.

Okay, this way.

Please sit. Let's sit.

Okay.

Executive Assistant He, today is our family dinner for their engagement.

You being here is a little unsuitable.

Mom.

Ah Cai, since this is your family meal, He Jie and I will step back for now.

Auntie, we're leaving now. Bye-bye.

- Teacher He!- Cheng Cheng!

- Let's eat.- Auntie...

Actually, Teacher He is a good friend to me and Gong Cheng.

Look. He Jie helped a lot to make Gong Cheng and me get where we are today.

Ah Cai, he is our Cheng Cheng's executive assistant. If he did it, wasn't it just his duty?

Mom, Teacher He is not a stranger.

He isn't just a Gong Group staff member. He's also my best friend.

So disappointing!

Don't take what happened today to heart.

Though Gong Cheng's parents are fierce and stern,

Gong Cheng really thinks of you as his friend.

Don't let his parents affect your mood.

It's not because of that. I just thought of my parents.

Were they strict to you, too?

I never thought that Gong Cheng's mom and dad were strict to him.

On the contrary, I think they are very affectionate. They love Gong Cheng and care for him; always put him first.

If my parents had treated me like that, I would have actually been very happy.

Where did you ever see them affectionate?

They were so horrible to you and you are still defending them?

I saw something different than you. What you saw was their attitude towards me. But what I saw was—

In short, I think they're very kind.

Is it because your parents look like Gong Cheng's parents?

Just like Aunt Niu?

Living alone and away from home, even if your family isn't perfect,

you'll still miss it.

We will arrange for the place to be here, so that it can be done more elegantly.

Kids nowadays all like outdoor ceremonies.

Look how simple and crude this is.

Madam, the weather is so stuffy today, why don't you have a sip of water?

- Manager Xu.- Yeah?

You're carrying all that weight alone and no one is helping you.

Seems like some people haven't noticed. Go.

- Relax a little. Drink some water.- I'm fine. I'm not tired.

What are you saying?

Assistant He.

Okay.

- Drink.- Thank you.

Executive Assistant He, do you usually use this type of theatrics to attract people's attention?

Sorry. Sorry.

If we have tolerated you until now,

it is entirely because of Cheng Cheng. Do not remind us

of your presence over and over again.

- Okay- Dad. Mom. Don't you think these words are over the line?

We are the employers and he is an employee!

When I speak, can there be any line?

If you don't want me to be his friend just because he is an employee of Gong Group,

I can understand. But he is also my teacher.

He is also Crystal College's counselor.

So, I'll entreat you two to please show the most basic respect.

Crystal College is also under our Gong Group,

built under our investment. In the end, he is also one of our personnel.

How can you raise a staff worker to a friendly relationship with you?

Whom I make friends with is my free choice. Why have you always loved to organize everything for me since I was young?

Now, you are even interfering with my personal relationships. Why do you always like to meddle in my matters?

Cheng Cheng, because we're your parents and you're our son. Do you understand?

Whatever your parents provide for you is meant to be the best for you and be suitable for you.

So what if you are my parents?

All the time you two have spent with me added up isn't even as much as the time I spent with Teacher He alone.

In comparison, between what you say and what he says,

I trust him more.

I'm going there. Gong Cheng!

Chairman. Madam. He sometimes gets obsessed over splitting hairs.

- I'll go talk to him. - Assistant He!

What kind of spell did you put on him?

Since he was born, Gong Cheng has never talked back to me.

Just when will you be willing to give up?

This check. Fill out how much you want yourself.

- In-laws. In-laws. Don't get so angry. - So immature.

Let's go.

Here.

Actually, I can understand you. I know you want to rebel.

I know you have your own goals and dreams. However, you must know,

your parents really only want the best for you.

Including breaking off relations with you?

Drink less alcohol. I'll cook some noodles for you two.

Actually, I understand. Everyone envies the kind of family environment I have.

Having this kind of dad and mom, who have given me an inexhaustible amount of wealth.

When you look at it, it seems that they really dote on me.

Ever since I was young until now, I have had everything that other people could not attain.

Or you could say, ever since I was born, I have had everything that other people use their entire life to fight for,

but may not actually attain. Whether it is wealth or fame, or more learning opportunities,

compared to others I have always had more contact with these things; I have broader horizons, I benefit more.

Then, what else are you not satisfied with?

If I say I'm still not satisfied with this, I'm really too unreasonable.

I'm very grateful that my parents gave me this kind of family environment.

But... in all of my memories, their figures are absent.

Why?

I don't know why they were never home.

When I needed them or wanted to talk to them,

I could never find them. They were always too busy with work.

After the company made some progress, I think that they finally had time to accompany me.

But instead they then went to travel around the world.

It seems they've always had all kinds of reasons to leave me.

I promise you, your parents definitely don't think like that.

Like when I was young, my parents did not care for the family at all. They always relied on me. Since I was a child, my wish,

my hope was that they would give me the freedom to do whatever I wanted to do:

when I was reading comics, not to make me mind the shop, not to make me go sell soy sauce.

Just that simple. So, your parents didn't mean to leave you, they wanted to give you independent space

to do everything you wanted to do.

But I feel like they don't really like me.

Yet they use all kinds of methods to give me what other kids want.

And they tell me that this is love.

- Maybe this is their way to love you. - Sometimes, I feel like I was custom-made.

I'm their art piece. Since I was born, they have just wanted me to take the shape they liked.

Therefore, I feel I have no freedom.

- Have some.- Thank you.

Okay, drink less alcohol and eat some noodles.

Bai Lian! How come you're so out of shape?

Here, receive my serve!

Bai Lian!

- Are you okay?- I'm okay.

Let's go to the school and see Doctor Su.

Let's not go to him.

But you've got a scrape here!

Why are you not coming to me?

Doctor Su, then you take care of Bai Lian.

You're not mad? Don't you blame me anymore?

How could I not be mad? I thought we loved each other.

In the end, you tell me that my world is a comic book, that I am a fictional character.

I think my life is a joke. It's a game.

I'm sorry, I tricked you. However, I genuinely love you.

From the moment I decided to stay,

all of this stopped being fake to me.

Although it is also painful for me... I've struggled with it, doubted it...

It suddenly occurred to me, that it's for me that you stayed in this fictional world.

Then, on what groundd... and why should I blame you?

So... what you mean is...

I was really mad before, but now I'm calm.

You have no disease, you're healthy. You are never going to leave me.

Correct. You gave me true love.

No matter whether this world is real or fake, I still have everything here.

And you... you only have me now.

Let's go home.

I'll dress this wound for you.

Since I was a child, I just wanted to grow up and be independent as soon as possible.

Leave that oppressive family as soon as possible. As a result, it was only natural

that I would design my male lead

as someone independent, who enjoyed being alone.

I hoped that he would grow up with no familial burdens,

no need to worry about money.

When he wanted freedom,

I'd let his parents give him the biggest space.

When he needed help,

I also designed it so that someone would help him arrange

the most... perfect path.

However, I didn't realize that when you put these all together,

it would actually have become Gong Cheng's biggest annoyance.

Was I really wrong in designing Gong Cheng on the basis of my own needs?

Actually, you shouldn't blame yourself over this matter.

Because everything you gave Gong Cheng was the best for him.

So your starting point was good.

But you've seen the result.

It's really terrible.

Actually, it seems that now I can understand a bit more

why in real life my family environment

would be so cold. Because I always complained about my parents

and how they would not create a warm family atmosphere for me.

However, when I saw the way Gong Cheng relates to his parents,

I finally understood a little.

What do you mean?

Between me and my family, our mode of interaction

lacked communication. I never thought

what sort of needs their spirit would have at their age.

Maybe I reached the age of 25 and I still can't grow up.

I'm still that...

that thirteen-year-old

immersed in his adolescent pain.

Sorry, Lu Zixing,

for talking to you about such a depressing topic.

Will it put you in a bad mood?

I'm going to get you some fruit.

It's quite hot here.

When the time comes, patch up the lawn a bit.

Make a good layout!

Cheng Cheng's mom, take a look at how you want to arrange it.

- Hello Chairman. - Hello Chairman!

Hello Chairman.

Over here. You must tie a ribbon on every chair.

Remember. They must be real silk.

- Do as the lady says. - Yes.

And the candlesticks, they must be all pure gold.

This row... This fence row, fill it with tied balloons for me.

- It has to be completely pink. - Yes.

These few trees are too dull. So lifeless.

Put up some of those Christmas lights. The sparkling will look pretty nice.

It will make for a better atmosphere.

And also on our banisters, we also want it to sparkle. Pretty!

Chairman!

What are you doing?
