[Speed and Love]

[Episode 21]

Did you see the Luminous Pearl

that night?

Yes, I did.

So

when the explosion happened,

you didn't...

I'm not a god.

I'm just an ordinary person too.

What do you mean?

You saved me.

Were you hurt?

Let me see.

I'm fine.

How is your mother?

Chris has arranged
a second surgery for her.

It went fairly well,

but I'll have to go

and see her in person to know for sure.

You should go back soon.

When people are sick,

they need their family by their side.

I'm sorry.

I even asked you before

if you wanted to go to Nanjing together.

I never thought I'd be the one
who couldn't make it.

We'll have plenty of time in the future.

But your mom can't wait.

After major surgery,

a patient's mood is
the most important thing.

If you stay with her,

she'll feel better.

It's good for her recovery.

Are you...

breaking up with me?

You're awake.

Officer Lu just left.

He left when I arrived.

My phone.

I'm planning to leave Manshi.

Maybe I'll go somewhere far away
to try my luck.

I won't be using this phone number
and this WeChat account anymore.

Once I've settled down in a new place,

I'll contact you again.

Sanlai.

Tomorrow...

help me cancel my phone number.

Brandy,

isn't this too cruel to Jiang Mu?

Cancel it.

Happy birthday,

Zhao.

Mu's presence lingers everywhere here.

Her laughter

still seems to ring in my ears.

But I have to say goodbye to all of this.

I...

I can't become a burden to her.

As long as she's happy,

that's all that matters.

You've really decided to go back to China?

I'll go back to school first,

then see what I can build from there.

Can you really bear to
leave the garage behind?

I said back then,

once the matter with Wan's was settled,

I'd close it down.

I know.

By that time, you were already planning to
take Jiang Mu with you.

Once you leave,

our brotherhood will really be over.

It won't be over.

You two will come visit me
in China, won't you?

Alright.

Make something of yourself.

When you're successful,

we'll come leech off you.

It's a deal, then.

Pick up the pace.

Mu will be here soon.

Don't rush me,

or I'll cut my hand.

You have a comeback for everything I say.

Hurry up and think.

When Mu comes later,

if she asks about Zhao,

what should we tell her?

Just say Jin Zhao went away
to look for better opportunities

and never came back.

Fine, fine, say it like that!

What if she asks about

his address or phone number?

What then?

Just say we don't have them either,

and that he hasn't contacted us.

Do you even have a brain?

That obviously won't work.

Mom.

You think she'd buy that...

I bought Mu's favorite

strawberry milkshake.

Good.

Xin,

when Mu comes,

be careful what you say.

If she asks about Zhao,

just say,

"I don't know.

I don't know anything."

Okay?

That's lying.

You're just a child. What do you know?

Take this over there.

I know everything.

You and Dad are just being cruel.

Did you hear that? Even our child says so.

Tell me—are we being

cruel here?

Isn't it all for their own good?

Mrs. Zhao, did Jin Zhao
ever come back later?

No.

Before heading out to make his own way,

he came back home for a meal.

At that time, he told your dad that

if

he managed to settle down over there,

he might never come back.

"Settled down?"

What do you mean?

Is he abandoning this family?

Well...

Mu,

he's not your father's
biological son, after all.

All these years he's lived alone outside,

precisely because he didn't want us to...

didn't want us to
worry too much about him.

So,

whatever ideas he has,
or whatever decisions he makes,

we...

have no position to influence him.

Mrs. Zhao, I'm going out for a while.

Don't wait for me for dinner.

Sanlai,

you closed your pet shop?

Jiang Mu,

weren't you studying in Canada?

You're back in Manshi now?

Do you have any news about Jin Zhao?

Brandy?

I haven't been in contact with him
for a long time either.

That rascal.
Who knows where he ran off to?

Not even a word to his own buddy!

Stop looking for him. That rascal.

Just forget about him already.

Aren't there many

handsome blonde, blue-eyed guys in Canada?

You should get to know some.

They're definitely better than
that rascal, Brandy.

[Three years later]

You live in Beijing, right?

Yeah, I live in Beijing.

It's cold there.

Come on.

Come on, welcome.

Thank you very much.

-Merry Christmas.
-Here comes the fish!

Merry Christmas.

Cheers.

Mu.

This is wonderful.

Thank you so much for all of this, Mu.

This Christmas feels especially nice.

Thank you for joining us,

and I'm thankful that your mom

has recovered well.

I'll go get her.

Eat more later,

okay?

Come on, Nick.

Keep her company, will you?

Okay.

Mu, did you make
all these dishes yourself?

Did you cook often before?

Would you believe me if I said

I'd never cooked a complete meal
before coming here?

This is incredibly delicious.

People,

they never stay the same.

You should get her number.

Hey, I would like to say, like...

Sorry.

I'd like... I want to...

Can I have your number or some...

Bro, no.

Bro.

Mu,

I ground this coffee myself.

Would you like to try some?

No, thanks.

Why do you never drink

the coffee I make for you?

I'm just afraid that
if I drink too much coffee,

I won't be able to sleep at night.

I'm meeting a few friends later.

Would you like to join?

Alright.

Actually, there aren't any friends.

It's just me.

Why do you reject me

every time I ask you out?

Can't you give me a chance?

Nick, I've noticed your Chinese

has gotten really good.

But I'm sorry,

I have to turn you down again.

Mu, you're so heartless.

Fine then,

I'll drink it myself.

You know that, uh,
Character A in the game?

My proficiency is through the roof.

Do you want a go?

I can give you a hand
and show you how it's done.

And you know what?

Now they've got so many competitions
with a lot of prize money as well.

So, you never know. I could be rich.

At the riverbank,
I caught the biggest fish, really.

I was around there every morning,

from six to four to six, all clock.

From four to six, I am...

I was waiting and waiting.

I'm telling you,

that basketball game the other day

almost gave me a heart attack.

First, we were up by so many points,

but then, towards the middle of the game,
ultimately, I chucked a three-pointer.

Causing us to win!
Putting a victory for our team!

Have a sip of coffee if you want.

Is this coffee good?

It's probably not as good as
the one I make, right?

The taste of my coffee...

Do you still remember it?

Why is it sweet?

I won't let you have bitter things.

I remember.

By the way, I've got a basketball game
tomorrow. Do you want to come?

Sorry.

I'm tired.

You should go out
and see more of the world.

Maybe you'll find

there are many men out there
better than me.

See?

I'm already 26 years old.

After all these years

of drifting and crossing paths

with countless people,

I still can't forget you.

By the way, I'm from Nanjing.

I did my undergraduate studies

at Nanjing University
of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

NUAA?

I once wanted to study at NUAA too.

But somehow, one thing led to another,

and I ended up in Canada.

Really?

We have quite a connection then.

We're even in the same field
for graduate studies.

We should talk more about our research.

Hey there.

You're so dedicated.

The pride of our nation.

Thank you.

May I take a look?

Are you into fountain pens?

A little bit.

A gift from a friend?

From my ex-boyfriend.

You must've dated for quite a while.

A week.

A week, and he gave you a pen like this?

An 18K gold nib,

and the barrel and cap

are pure silver with engravings.

This is quite a nice pen.

Your ex must've been pretty rich.

He didn't have money.

He just gave me the best thing he had

when he was at his lowest point.

That house was quite magical.

The appliances were always breaking down,

one after another,

as if they'd planned it together.

Jin Zhao always had no choice
but to go back and fix them.

Your dad is good at driving

but not much else.

Being with him

is exhausting.

That's not true.
His cooking is actually very good.

At least better than Jin Zhao's cooking.

Jin Zhao can cook too?

Yes.

Not only can he cook,

but he can also box, drive,

and fix cars.

And repair home appliances too.

Yes,

he can do just about anything.

Although he was constantly framed
by Wan's,

he never gave up

or felt sorry for himself.

In my opinion,

he's a person
with a strong sense of justice.

What is he doing now?

I don't know.

We haven't been in touch for a long time.

The weather is so cool today.

So after school, do you have any plans?

Maybe we can take a walk.

Fine.

That sounds good.

Jiang Mu.

What are you doing here?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I'm here for work,

on assignment for a collaborative project.

After graduation,

you really did go to Nanjing.

Now you're at a branch of
the Chinese Academy of Sciences?

I've been to many places,

but I still think

our hometown is the best.

I spend most of my time
at the Purple Mountain Observatory now.

That's where the asteroid "China"
was discovered.

They've achieved outstanding
research results in recent years.

That's great.

I'm really envious.

I haven't had a chance

to visit the old observatory site
on the mountain to see the gnomon,

armillary sphere, and other ancient
astronomical instruments.

When do you graduate?

Soon, just a few more months.

I happen to have

a research assistant position open.

Are you interested?

I could save it for you.

I...

No rush.

You still have several months
until graduation.

Think about it carefully.

By the way,

there's a small gathering here tomorrow.

It's with colleagues who came with me

and some local peers.

Why don't

you come too?

I can introduce you around.

Okay.

Sorry, everyone, I'm late.

Jiang Mu.

Zhijie, aren't you going to introduce us?

Allow me to introduce you all.

This is my junior, Jiang Mu.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

This is my supervisor,

Professor Gan.

Nice to meet you, Professor.

And these two are my colleagues
from the CAS.

Those over there are my classmates
from Melbourne.

Come on, have a seat.

Hurry.

Sit here.

Come on, cheers.

Mu, welcome to this gathering.

Thank you, Professor.

What's your field of study?

I'm studying astronomy.

Not many girls
study this field these days.

That is...

an exquisite die with a red bean heart?

The agate within the jade die is

carved into the shape
of red beans—love beans.

This kind of hollow carving
with a red bean

inserted inside

makes all six sides appear red—

that's what we call
"an exquisite die with a red bean heart."

A symbol of deep longing.

In ancient times, it was a token of love.

It was popular for a while back then.

Rarely seen nowadays.

Very special.

You're giving it to me?

Now you're willing to give it to me?

Before, no matter how I asked,
you wouldn't give it to me.

So stingy.

I really couldn't give it to you before.

But now...

Now why can you?

I'd have to start
with the origin of this thing.

I'll tell you about it slowly
in the future.

I've tried to see the world.

All these years,

I've met many excellent people.

But no one

can make me feel anything.

Because

none of them is you.

Mom,

I want to go back to China for my career.

Back to Nanjing.

Senior!

Jiang Mu.

What is it?

You mentioned yesterday
that you need a research assistant.

Is that true?

Of course it's true.

You've decided so quickly?

Yes.

I'll go back as soon as I graduate.

Didn't you say your family was here

and you weren't planning to go back?

I am going back.

I also want to contribute to
our country's aerospace program,

even if it's just a little.

Alright.

I'll contact them for you right away.

Dad.

Dad, Dad.

Look, I've finished my homework.

You promised

to take me to the concert.

Did I ever promise you that?

Yes, you did.

You can't break your promise.

Why don't I remember?

Your dad said he would,
so he won't break his promise.

Come on, sit down. Food's ready.

Mom,

you have to back me up.

I know. Now sit down.

Mu, come on.

Try my cooking

and see if I've improved.

Has there been any news

from Jin Zhao?

He sends money back,

but he himself has never come back.

We haven't heard much from him
in a long time.

Yes,

he hasn't come back for so many years.

Who knows,

maybe he's already
settled down somewhere else.

Right?

Eat up.

Have some more.

Have some more.

Thank you.

Seriously, how long did it take you
to pass the exam?

I got in the second year after you left.

I've already graduated

and returned home
to take over the family business.

I'm working as a purchasing manager
at my dad's factory.

I'm doing pretty well for myself.

I can see that.

What about you?

How have you been lately?

Oh, right!

I always thought

you and Brandy were related.

I kept quiet about it for years

and never dared to say anything.

It wasn't until last year,
when Brandy came back, that I realized

you two aren't actually related by blood.

He came back?

When?

Early last year.

There was a problem with a shipment
at my dad's factory.

I couldn't find a replacement anywhere.

Then I got a call from a stranger.

He said he had the goods

and quoted me a price

lower than the market average.

I thought it was a scam,

so I insisted on meeting in person.

To my surprise,

it was Brandy!

How is he doing?

I'm not really sure

how he's doing now.

I offered to take him out for a meal

to properly thank him that day.

But he said he was short on time

and that he could only stay for one day.

He helped us connect with new suppliers

and left the next day.

Oh, right.

I remember he brought someone
with him that day,

called him "Boss,"

and was very respectful toward him.

Then... how was

his health?

He looked worn out.

Probably tired from traveling.

But he was still as handsome as ever.

He hasn't lost his charm at all.

It was precisely because of the time

when Brandy helped me turn things around

that I was finally able

to establish my authority
at my dad's factory

and gain some real influence.

No one called me a nepotism hire anymore.

Later, I found out

why Brandy suddenly contacted me.

Why?

Do you remember

when you brought Brandy

to my dad's factory to fix the car?

At that time, Brandy told me

he owed me a favor

and would repay it someday.

I thought he was just being polite.

I had completely forgotten about it.

I never expected him to remember
after all these years!

I really respect him
for being a man of his word!

Cheers.

He even remembered the favor
he owed to Pan Kai,

so why did he promise to contact me

but never follow through?

Do you have his contact information?

Could you share it with me?

You don't have it?

I'll send it to you. I'll send it to you.

I've sent it to you.

He came back last year.

His family is here,

so there's no reason
he wouldn't go see Dad.

He's not a heartless person.

Back when things were so difficult,

he even risked breaking the law to
modify cars to help pay for Xin's surgery

and support the family.

There's no way
he would just disappear forever

after the case was over.

But why would Dad say

he hasn't come home for several years?

It's also possible

that he did come back,

but for some reason,

Dad chose to hide it from me.

But what reason could Dad possibly have

for doing that?

Dad, I'm already on the plane.

Take care of yourself and Mrs. Zhao.

When Xin's on holiday,

bring her to Nanjing for a visit.

Okay.

Have a safe journey.

Let me know when you land.

She's boarded the plane.

Do you think...

she's found out we lied to her?

Probably not.

Did she ask you about Zhao in private?

Mu is such a good girl.

Is it okay for us to lie to her like that?

This was Jin Zhao's decision.

I feel so uneasy...

But this is all we can do for now.

Brother, I want strawberries!

Zhao.

I'm back.

Do you remember?

This is where we grew up together.

I told you before—

when I was little,

I'd secretly come back to our old house

and leave my contact information,

hoping that one day, when you returned,

you could find me.

At that time, I had a hope

that as long as you came back,

maybe you'd use the same method

to leave me some messages.

So I could find you too.

But...

Zhao, look.

Everything here has changed.

Changed so much
I don't even recognize it anymore.

Zhao,

can I still find you?

Where are you really?

Are we really going to
miss each other like this?

Should I really...

let you go?
