[Episode 19]

If you don't want to talk, I won't push.

Do you really think your current situation could be the reason Cherry can't be with you?

It's the reason

I can't be with Cherry.

You feel trapped in this situation with no way out.

That's why you can't be with Cherry.

But how long should Cherry wait? Ten years? Twenty?

Until you finally think you're ready to go to her?

What if Cherry gets married? Has children?

Will you just watch from afar, wish her happiness,

and silently tell her in your heart that you've always loved her?

Jiang Qiao Xi, don't you realize the script you're writing for yourself

is arrogant and utterly boring?

Yu Qiao.

Sometimes I really envy you.

You should envy me.

Because, unlike you, I believe in Cherry,

and I know what kind of person she truly is.

Yeah.

Please don't tell Cherry I'm here.

Why would I tell her? What's in it for me?

Then why did you come looking for me?

I came because you're my friend and someone Cherry loves.

I was worried when you disappeared without a word.

But seeing you're okay now gives me peace.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for making you worry.

But I... I genuinely don't know what else I can do.

Your apology is accepted.

But when we return, I'll confess my feelings to Cherry.

♫ You lock up your heart ♫

♫ The key is in the clouds ♫

♫ Passing through dreams ♫

♫ Leaving no trace ♫

♫ Little us ♫

♫ Can't fly beyond fingertips ♫

♫ But I want to ♫

♫ Forget the glimmer as starlight ♫

♫ For you ♫

♫ In the gentle night ♫

♫ You pretend to walk away ♫

♫ Palms not yet warm ♫

♫ Breath left behind ♫

♫ We advance and retreat like tides ♫

♫ Loop till the end ♫

♫ Go with you ♫

♫ You are the reason I stop burning ♫

♫ Memory ♫

♫ Breaking into the unknown forbidden zone ♫

You know what? The patient in the next bed...

He was taken home by his son after running out of money.

Miss, don't worry. We won't shortchange you.

You've misunderstood me, young man. That's not what I meant.

She's not doing well.

Even though she seems no different on the surface,

she tutors every day to save money, working extremely hard.

She says no matter where you are, she'll definitely find you.

Do you really think your current situation could be the reason Cherry can't be with you?

How long will you make Cherry wait? Ten years? Twenty years?

What if Cherry gets married? Has children?

Will you just watch from afar, wish her happiness,

and silently tell her in your heart that you've always loved her?

Qiao Xi, you must be tired. Go home and rest.

Is there something bothering you?

No.

I just think you're amazing,

taking care of my brother for so long.

There's nothing amazing about it. Anyone would do this in such circumstances.

Haven't you been by your cousin's side too?

I'm his brother. It's only natural for me to do this.

Not all relationships depend on blood ties. Go home and rest.

Alright.

Hurry home and get some rest.

I'll take my leave then.

Ruo Cheng, sit up. Let me feed you.

I made your favorite fish congee and picked out all the bones.

No need to be so formal.

This is bad. You've been cooking such delicious meals for me these years.

I'm afraid I won't adjust well once I recover.

Are you really not studying, Senior?

As your senior, I'm here to supervise your studies, so study hard now.

I've barely seen you study these years.

Then why did you get the only grad school recommendation spot in your class?

Do you really want to know why?

I'm too smart to bother studying.

Seriously. Why doesn't anyone believe me?

It's Sunday. Why hasn't our Flight Academy hunk shown up yet?

Did you two have a fight?

Why would we fight? He's probably busy.

Besides, I've been busy with tutoring lately.

It's not like we have to meet every week.

That won't do. You need to do something.

Do what? It's totally fine that we all mind our own business.

Oh my dear junior, what should we do with you?

Your last backup is slipping away. I'm worried for you.

Senior, I know why you got that recommendation.

They ranked you by how savage your tongue is.

Hit a nerve, huh? Look at you, getting all defensive.

Don't be mad. Here, have some coffee.

I'm just looking out for you.

Who is it?

Why are you peeking at my phone?

Well, a genius needs some amusement.

Cherry, I'm waiting at your school's cruise ship snack bar. Come out.

Help me return this. I need to leave for something urgent.

Where are you going? I'll go with you.

Yu Qiao.

Why do you look so exhausted? Did you stay up all night?

Cherry, could you buy me a bottle of water?

Cherry, use my money.

It's just water. Why are you being so particular?

Wait.

Please buy it for me.

Fine. Wait here.

[Yi Jian Ru Gu]

Cher...

Cherry, I found Jiang Qiao Xi. I know where he is now.

He lives near the Fortune Building.

When you reach there, take the Tsuen Wan Line towards Central,

get off at Admiralty Station, then transfer to the Island Line heading to Chai Wan.

Exit at Tin Hau Station Exit A, then go to the bus stop on King's Road.

Take New World Bus Route 2 to reach Fortune Building.

He lives in Unit 1501.

Of course, if you can't remember all the routes, just take a taxi.

You went there?

Cherry.

I won't have time to have meals with you anymore.

Our Flight Academy juniors are going to Canada soon.

I need to prepare for IELTS and flight school interviews.

I won't have time to visit you anymore.

Take good care of yourself.

Yu Qiao! Yu Qiao!

Don't you want your wallet?

Keep it. Consider it sponsorship for your trip.

Trying to make me owe you? No way.

Cherry, do you know the worst thing I've ever done?

What?

When I heard about Jiang Qiao Xi, I didn't tell you immediately.

Yu Qiao.

Thank you.

Lin Cherry, have a safe trip.

When I go there, I'll buy you Ray-Ban sunglasses.

[Hong Kong Hoi Loon Hotel]

Hey boss, it's raining. Don't catch a cold.

Jiang Qiao Xi.

You think acting melancholic earns you money?

Yin, I'm getting used to viewing the city from this spot.

Right, you used to live in a Repulse Bay mansion.

Now you're in a place smaller than a rat's nest.

Don't give me that when you're the landlord of an entire building.

What? You've known I own buildings for ages.

You've known for more than a day that you need to pay me rent, right?

Vincent, what's the relationship with that friend of yours last time?

Since he came, you've been acting strangely.

He's someone very similar to me.

Similar how? Both tall and handsome or something?

We share the same expectations.

The difference is that he still has a chance while I don't.

Why would you say that?

What's really going on with you?

I used to think life was like a cage.

For my own freedom and for those I care about,

I've been searching for the key to unlock the cage.

Back then, I thought I was smart enough to open any cage.

But now I realize that besides the visible cages in this world,

there are countless invisible ones too.

Facing these cages, I feel utterly helpless.

I don't want those I love to be trapped in these cages with me.

You're usually so quiet,

and when you finally speak, it's all metaphorical.

I'm getting a headache listening to you.

Love shouldn't have cages or barriers.

With your good looks, you don't need to make it so tragic.

Maybe that girl will come looking for you tomorrow.

What? Don't you believe it?

It's not that I don't believe it.

I just think she shouldn't see me like this.

I don't want her to, either.

Relax, even when down on your luck, handsome guys like you have a unique charm,

like a drenched, adorable puppy.

There are plenty of rich women who like your type, you know.

You just got your pass, and you want to leave this afternoon?

In such a hurry?

If I don't go now,

he might suddenly go to California, London, Spain, or Cambodia next.

I'd need to save years' worth of plane tickets.

At least this is closer.

You think you're getting a bargain, huh?

Have you heard of this emotion called anger?

Why should I be angry?

Why? He suddenly vanished without a trace,

making you travel all that way to find him.

You should be confronting him, not being all excited about it.

Just finding him and seeing him again makes me happy enough.

We'll deal with the rest when we meet.

I really don't get it.

You've got princess luck, but insist on suffering unnecessary hardships.

I'm not the princess. He is.

Always trapped in some tower, needing me to rescue him.

Should I admire your loyalty or call you a glutton for punishment?

Let me do it. Let me.

Just wish me a smooth journey.

As a girl traveling to such a faraway place, you really need to be careful.

- Got it! - You're going there for the first time.

In an unfamiliar place, make sure not to lose anything!

Call me anytime if anything happens, got it?

Alright, I got it. Don't worry about me.

I'm running late. Bye Sis!

Stay safe and come back soon.

- Hello? - Who are you looking for?

I-I'm here to see a friend. Can I go in?

Thank you. Thank you.

Excuse me, is this the Fortune Building West Tower?

Do you know this person? Jiang Qiao Xi. He's in Unit 1501.

I need to find him.

I don't understand. Don't understand.

You can't go up. Wait here. Wait here.

Do you know Jiang Qiao Xi?

Miss, you can't sleep here. No sleeping allowed.

Young lady...

What are you doing? What are you doing?

Don't shout. Don't shout.

You'll attract police attention. They'll arrest you.

I mean no harm.

Hey! Why did you let a girl sleep out here?

You said no visitors allowed. So I made her leave.

What?

Are you here to see someone?

Answer him! He owns this building.

I'm talking to you! I own this building!

You own this building?

Here and here. The whole building's mine.

No one moves in without my approval.

Are you looking for someone?

Is any of your tenants a boy named...

Jiang Qiao Xi?

Yes! That's him. Jiang Qiao Xi. Do you know him?

I already told this gentleman.

So many girls come looking for Jiang Qiao Xi,

but I never let any of them in.

No. No. No.

But I...

Want to come in?

This way.

Watch your step. Careful.

Thank you.

This unit.

I rented it to him cheaply.

Actually... I've seen you before.

You'll know once you go inside.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Qing, you're going to kill someone by leaving all this stuff lying around!

Okay, okay, okay.

I brought it in, Mr. Han.

What are you doing here so late? I've already paid rent this month.

I'll pay you rent.

Mrs. Qing.

Mr. Han, what's going on?

I want to rent your place for a few hours to watch a show.

A show?

Vincent, you didn't chase the moon, so the moon came looking for you.

Cut back on those late-night TV dramas, will you?

What's wrong with you? Why let her into my room?

Why scold me in Cantonese? Afraid the girl would understand?

You little troublemaker.

I've shielded you from so many girls, and not even a thank you?

I just let one in, and you yell at me.

I didn't do it casually.

I've seen tons of this girl's photos in your room.

Enough. Shut it.

Guilty conscience. Definitely guilty.

So the little sister's here.

Vincent, you're such a lovesick fool.

Mr. Han, you didn't tell me.

- Shut up! - What's it to you?

- He's closed up. - He already closed.

He's already closed the door.

Jiang Qiao Xi?

Is that you?

The elevator's broken here.

You'll have to make do at my place tonight.

I'll stay at Han Yin's place. Let's have a meal tomorrow.

Then, you can book a flight and go back.

I didn't come here just for a meal with you.

Okay, stay longer. I'll book you a hotel.

Disneyland, Ocean Park... You'd probably like those places.

I don't want Disney or Ocean Park.

I came here because you're here.

Jiang Qiao Xi, you told me not to forget you.

I have a new life now, Cherry.

Does your "new life" mean cutting all ties with the past?

Does this past include me too?

Yes. I'm doing just fine now.

I'm living my life seriously now.

You should too, Cherry.

Then why did you talk to me about the future back then?

Why did you tell me not to forget you?

Then you left without a single word.

Because I don't need it. I don't need it, Cherry.

What don't you need? This whole place is filled with me.

Jiang Qiao Xi, do you think that's remotely convincing?

Why do you keep locking yourself away?

Every little problem makes you spiral into stubbornness.

So stubborn and narrow-minded.

You always make decisions alone, expecting everyone to follow.

I put in so much effort to come here. I won't leave.

Jiang Qiao Xi.

I've had so many dreams.

In them, it's like different parallel worlds with countless versions of you.

Each version of you has a different ending.

Those versions of you in the parallel worlds

probably never imagined I'd turn out like this.
