1

Once upon a time, there was a planet far away in outer space.

2

The environment there was almost the same as Earth's.

3

So, of course, there were aliens living on it.

4

After a long process of evolution, those aliens

5

established their own civilization.

6

One day, their scientists predicted that their galaxy was going to collapse.

7

To escape, they immigrated to other planets in the universe by spaceship.

8

And one group of them came to Earth.

9

They called themselves the Fox Clan.

10

Ancient men on Earth were shocked when they saw them.

11

An ancient book reads that a huge ship-like object flew above the western sea.

12

The people in it wore crowns, had white feathers all over their bodies, and flew high in the sky with no wings.

13

That is the first impression the Fox Clan made on humans.

14

To adapt to the environment on Earth, the Fox Clan never stopped evolving.

15

Finally, they began to look like humans and gradually fit in with them.

16

Since ancient times, the conflicts between humans and the Fox Clan never ended.

17

There was a government proofreading official named Dai Fu,

18

who was especially interested in the love between foxes and humans.

19

He believed love could overcome everything.

20

After Dai Fu died, his son collected all of the stories he had written.

21

He called it "Guang Yi Ji" and had it published.

(The Great Book of Marvels)

22

It was quite popular among its readers.

23

After storytellers added more details, the stories spread even further.

24

But humans began to fear foxes, instead of just being curious.

25

Foxes noticed that humans were getting less and less friendly.

26

They had to hide their identity in this world.

[Letter of Recommendation]

34

Hello, Teacher.

35

Hello, Teacher.

36

Hello, hello.

37

Xiuxian. Teacher.

38

Do you really not like school?

39

Do you think I'm joking around with you?

40

I really couldn't find a more suitable job.

41

Forget it. It doesn't matter. Isn't it just being a gym teacher?

42

Alright. Then, I'll treat it like I'm training my body.

43

Then I'm going to class first. I'll come find you on the field once my class is over.

44

Alright. Fighting, Kuanyong.

45

[The 90s]

46

Helan. We are hiring you to be our special appraiser.

47

We don't have any fixed work hours.

48

Also, your eyes aren't that great.

49

You don't have to come to work during the day.

50

I don't want any special treatment.

51

This is my first time going to work. I want to come and get to know the other people earlier.

52

I've already prepared everything.

53

From today on, we'll have a car for your commute.

54

Don't do that, please. My friend can drop me off.

55

At night, I can drive myself home. Please don't be so courteous.

56

Everything has already been arranged. Don't refuse it.

57

Besides, I think you deserve a better job than this.

58

With your knowledge, you should at least work in the Provincial Museum.

59

What made you decide to come work in Xincheng's museum?

60

I have a friend, we grew up together.

61

Recently, he moved to Xincheng,

62

so I just moved here with him.

63

So it was like that.

64

Hello, everyone. I am your substitute teacher.

65

[Zhao]

66

[Zhao Kuanyong]

67

My name is Zhao Kuanyong.

68

You all know that your physics teacher, Teacher Zhang, and your physical education teacher, Teacher Li, have gotten married.

69

They've taken a month off, so the remainder of this class will be taught by me.

70

Teacher, how old are you this year?

71

A bit older than you.

72

Teacher, where are you from?

73

I'm a local.

74

Alright, students. We're going to start class now.

75

Who is the Physics Representative of our class?

76

That's me. My name is Li Yinhua.

77

When class ends, please collect the homework.

78

Please sit.

79

Students, please turn to page 34 in your books.

80

Let's talk about the principles of mechanical movement.

81

Do you know what mechanical movement is?

82

Today's class will end here. Class is over.

83

Mr. Zhao, our final is coming soon. Can you give us a hint about our test questions?

84

I can't do that because I won't be writing the test.

85

Alright, students. If you have any other questions, we talk during the next class.

86

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye, Teacher.

87

[Notebook]

88

Here.

89

What is this?

90

You were tuning out during class. I'll bet you didn't take any notes.

91

Take this and copy it.

92

Thank you.

93

Wait a second.

94

That... my birthday is the day after...

95

I want to invite a few classmates over to my house for a meal. You should come.

96

The day after... I...

97

Let's talk about this later.

98

- Catch it.

- Pass it!

99

Slowly, slowly. Don't rush.

100

Come on, come on.

101

Why do you hate school so much?

102

I never said that I hated school.

103

Then, do you hate kids?

104

Why would I hate kids?

105

I just think they're at the age of 17 or 18.

106

They're rebellious and never satisfied.

107

They think that they understand themselves and know what they want.

108

But they don't understand how hard and challenging life will be in the future.

109

I know that you're thinking about things from the past.

110

Perhaps so.

111

Tanfeng Manor is gone. Stop thinking about it.

112

It just that this reminds me of it.

113

When you see these kids, don't you have any feelings or thoughts?

114

I do. I also think of the past.

115

But, I have you to accompany me,

116

so I don't think it was too painful back then.

117

Why are you suddenly so mushy?

118

Look to the right!

119

Look forward!

120

Rest! Stand up straight!

121

Hello, students.

122

Hello, Teacher.

123

Okay, good.

124

My name is Xiuxian. I'm helping Teacher Li with the class.

125

Your class only has the 50 meter sprint left, right?

126

Yes, Teacher.

127

Alright. Let's test this today then.

128

Do some warm-ups first and I'll meet you at the starting line.

129

Dismissed.

130

- I'll go over there.

- Alright.

131

Guan Guodong.

132

Why are you being so strange today?

133

I'm probably nervous because I have to take this test.

134

Nervous for what? It's just a physical test.

135

Also, you didn't care when you failed it the last few semesters.

136

Maybe it's because it's the last semester and I want to pass at least once.

137

Then... good luck!

138

Student, why aren't you doing homework in the classroom?

139

I like to do my homework outside. I have clearer thoughts.

140

What a coincidence. I also like the outdoors.

141

What are you doing?

142

Physics.

143

If you don't understand anything, you can ask me. I'm the new physics teacher.

144

I don't need to.

145

May I ask you about the Aharonov-Bohm effect in physics?

146

Alright. 8:42 seconds.

147

Yinhua, you're really fast.

148

What is the time for boys to pass?

149

9,2 seconds.

150

The ones in the back, get ready!

151

Get ready!

152

Hurry up, hurry up. More speed.

153

Guan Guodong!

154

Hurry up, hurry up!

155

Guan Guodong, what's up with you?

156

You run slower than the girls!

157

9:06 seconds.

158

Guodong. Remember to do a retest the day after tomorrow.

159

- Are you alright?

- Yes.

160

It's okay. There's still an opportunity.

161

Let me introduce you. This is the designated driver for our museum, Old Zhao.

162

Hello, hello.

163

- Hello, hello.

- Hello.

164

He will come for you if you call us before you come to work in the morning.

165

Curator, I really don't need a car.

166

How about this? You just moved here and you're not familiar with the roads.

167

These next two days why not let Old Zhao pick you up first.

168

Let him first show you around Xincheng.

169

Okay then. Thank you.

170

See you tomorrow, Curator.

171

I won't see you out any further then. See you tomorrow.

172

Master Zhao, can you take me to the hospital first?

173

Of course. Mr. Helan, which hospital do you want to go to?

174

I'm not familiar with this area.

175

Which hospital do you usually go to around here?

176

There are many. There's the Hua Da Hospital.

177

There's the No.1 Hospital of Xincheng and the Army hospital.

178

Which one do you want to go to?

179

Let's start with the Hua Da Hospital.

180

Okay.

181

Guan Guodong!

182

The night study is starting soon. Come back to the classroom.

183

You go first. I'll continue to practice for a while.

184

What if you get hurt? Go back and rest.

185

Alright.

186

Thank you.

187

I don't have plans to enter college.

188

Why?

189

My dad thinks that entering college is useless.

190

He wants me to go to the factory and start working to earn money for the family.

191

Hey, it's alright.

192

I just think that after three hard years of high school and then not taking the college entrance exam

193

seems like these three years were just wasted.

194

Why would you care so much about a gym class then?

195

If I say it, don't laugh.

196

You can say it.

197

I've always wanted to get a "merit student" title, but I've never gotten one.

198

It's because I always fail in PE.

199

Just consider it as a memory for me.

200

Oh.

201

I'll go and practice some more.

202

Subbing and Timing brought to you by the Love Knot Team @viki.com

203

Master Zhao.

204

The map says we should take Renmin Avenue if we want to go to the Hua Da hospital.

205

Why are we on Red Flag Street?

206

Renmin Avenue's traffic is bad at night.

207

We can go around to the back of the hospital by taking Red Flag Street.

208

This road usually has no cars. Only old drivers like me know this road.

209

So it's like that.

210

Studying to the last minute?

211

Hi. I want to ask where Director Liu Minghui's office is.

212

Walk to the end of this aisle.

213

Thank you.

214

Come in.

215

Are you Director Liu Minghui?

216

I am. You are...?

217

My surname is Helan. Sorry to disturb you.

218

I have an extremely important problem that I want to ask you about.

219

Alright. What problem? Sit down and tell me.

220

From 9 pm to early morning, the day after tomorrow,

221

I hope you can arrange your most experienced doctor to be at work here.

222

Why?

223

I have a pregnant friend who is going to be in labor that night.

224

I hope an experienced doctor will be there to make sure she and the baby are both safe.

225

All the doctors from our hospital are talented.

226

The work roster was made at the beginning of this month. We normally don't change it.

227

Was there any problem with the pre-labor check-ups?

228

Not really. I just hope everything goes well this time.

229

Then, for you to directly request something like that, isn't it a bit...

230

I can understand what you're thinking, so...

231

I prepared this for you.

232

[ Donation Agreement ]

233

- What is this?

- This is a donation agreement.

234

I will donate 1 million yuan to your hospital under my name.

235

You can confirm the details with any related lawyers.

236

I know this looks

237

arrogant and rude. But this is

238

really important to me. So I hope you can do me this favor.

239

We have always wanted to get an imported machine.

240

But our budget is limited. Mr. Helan,

241

thank you for your donation. You have really helped us.

242

The night after tomorrow,

243

I will arrange an experienced doctor to be on duty. Does that work?

244

Thank you so much.

245

One more thing, I am still not sure if she will check in on the day after tomorrow.

246

So if she doesn't show up,

247

this agreement still stands. Please be reassured.

248

I still need to visit more hospitals. I will take off now.

249

- Thank you, Director Liu.

- Goodbye.

250

Help me out.

251

Aren't you done yet?

252

- Almost. Wait for me.

- Hurry up.

253

This kid is really stubborn.

254

What's wrong?

255

- Teacher Xian.

- Yes.

256

Is there something?

257

Our PE Representative has asked for leave.

258

I can help you keep the records for the makeup 50m sprint test tomorrow.

259

Oh, okay. No problem.

260

Goodbye, Teacher Xian!

261

The doctor told me the child looks healthy.

262

I feel much calmer now.

263

Rest assured, our baby

264

will be great.

265

Do you think it's a boy or a girl?

266

I love both.

267

Hey, let's go there and get some food.

268

Don't. I'm a bit tired, let's just go home.

269

Okay, I will make you a delicious meal.

270

What are you going to make?

271

Whatever you want.

272

Come, have some water.

273

Help me get up.

274

- What is it?

- The baby just gave me a kick.

275

Oh, I got a kick too.

276

Let's go home.

277

[Respect]

278

9 minutes 40 seconds.

279

Teacher, here is the score sheet.

280

Oh, okay.

281

Okay, thanks. Good work today.

282

How do you feel today?

283

Did the baby kick you yesterday?

284

Baby, when will you come out?

285

What do you want for dinner? I'll go buy it.

286

Nothing, let's eat leftovers.

287

That's not going to work.

288

It's only days before the birth, you have to eat better.

289

Then... buy some fish.

290

I want fish.

291

Wait here, I'll go buy it.

292

Be right back.

293

What?

294

- What?

- I'll tell you something.

295

What?

296

- It's—

- Guan Guodong, Li Yinhua.

297

You two come to the office with me.

298

- Do you need my help?

- I need to go to the hospital.

299

- Right now.

- Don't panic, I will take you.

300

Thank you.

301

Come, be careful.

302

Here, who can explain this to me?

303

How did the result change from fail to pass?

304

Score Sheet

305

Teacher, I—

306

You think because I'm just a substitute teacher, I can't recognize your faces?

307

What a coincidence, I only know one person from your class

308

and his name is Guan Guodong, which is him.

309

- Teacher—

- Teacher.

310

It was me, he didn't do anything.

311

Don't panic, the hospital is very close.

312

Here, wipe the sweat.

313

Renmin Avenue is having a traffic jam.

314

Why is there a traffic jam? What should I do?

315

It's okay, I know a shortcut.

316

It's going to be all right.

317

Then explain it to me, why did you change his score?

318

Yes, why did you change my score?

319

Aren't you the one who wanted to pass? Aren't you the one who wanted to be the Merit Student?

320

Aren't you... aren't you the one who wanted the memory?

321

That's true, but you didn't need to do this for me.

322

Right, it was all me thinking too much.

323

Sorry.

324

No, you don't have to apologize.

325

I wasn't blaming you.

326

I just don't think I'm worthy enough

327

for you to do this.

328

Guan Guodong, are you really this stupid?

329

Can't you tell that I like you?

330

I can tell.

331

You can? Then why don't you give me any response?

332

That's enough.

333

I will let you guys go for changing the score.

334

But you still failed the class.

335

Alright. Off you go now.

336

Thank you, Teacher.

337

You really won't punish them for this?

338

What for? And how?

339

She did this for love.

340

How nice!

341

Jealous?

342

Don't you want to know how it feels to love someone?

343

Are you hungry, Kuanyong?

344

It's lunch time. Let's go eat.

345

Can you please inform my husband?

346

His BB number is126857739.

347

- Please call him.

- Don't worry.

348

Hello, may I use the phone?

349

Hello, can you call 857739?

350

Yes, 857739, and tell him

351

to come to the Huada Hospital immediately. His wife went into labor.

352

May I ask, did the doctor on duty change today?

353

Yes, it changed to Deputy Zhang.

354

- Thank you.

- You are welcome.

355

You are...? Oh, I saw you on the street today.

356

- Thank you so much.

- It's alright. Go check on her first.

357

Is the patient's family here?

358

Yes, I'm her husband.

359

She is in danger and needs to get a C-section.

360

- What?

- Sign here please.

361

Who is in danger? The wife or the baby?

362

Both are.

363

- Please sign here.

- Wait, let me see her first.

364

No, please just sign this.

365

[Guan Guodong]

366

It's alright, relax. Sit here.

367

Everything will be fine.

368

Rest assured. The doctor today

369

is very experienced.

370

How do you know?

371

I know him.

372

School is over, everyone left.

373

Alright, we should go too.

374

I have something for you.

375

What?

376

Happy birthday.

377

I thought you forgot.

378

How could I forget?

379

You said you were going to invite classmates over for dinner.

380

Now they are all gone, is the dinner still on?

381

I was only going to invite you.

382

Then... let's go.

383

Lord Helan, you came after all.

384

I have been keeping this a secret for a long time, so don't tell Xiuxian on me this time.

385

We were just worried that you would get too involved and it would cause some problems.

386

I was just trying to make sure Huiyan's birth was alright.

387

If I missed it this time, who knows when my next chance would be.

388

- You worry too much.

- Huiyan's birth is destined.

389

Maybe my being here is also destined.

390

You all take a good rest.

391

Go. Take care.

392

Lord, our job here is done.

393

What if they recognize us in the future?

394

Qianhua has a way to wipe away their memories.

395

Don't worry.

396

[ Five years later ]

397

Lord Helan, the train will be leaving in an hour, don't be late.

398

Huiyan's parents bring her here every day.

399

I just want to take a look. It won't take too long.

400

- Will you be fine by yourself?

- No problem.

401

Look, that girl looks like she really loves animals.

402

Who doesn't like animals? I think the animals love her too.

403

Guan Guodong, stop right there!

404

Guan Guodong, can you please have some guts? Look at Tao Jialin's dad and look at yourself.

405

Shame on you.

406

I should be ashamed?

407

Mind your own business!

408

If I don't take care of our business, we're going to starve.

409

Pipi is going to primary school soon, don't you dare hold us back.

410

Do you understand?

411

How did I hold you back?

412

Who did she smile at?

413

Me.

414

Why would she smile at you? She definitely smiled at me.

415

You are pretty funny.

(A play on the word "smile")

416

She's so cute.

417

She will definitely be very pretty when she grows up.

418

Just wait a little longer. Don't be anxious. It'll get better.

419

- Can you change your job?

- I've been working for so long in the factory. I can't do anything else.

420

Why are you so stuck on doing one thing?

421

Don't be anxious. Let me think of something.

422

Without money, how can Pipi go to school?

423

Give me some time. I'll go borrow some.

424

Don't run. Let the child go and I'll let you go.

425

I'll help you find your dad and mom, okay?

426

- I'll sing for you, okay?

- Yes.

427

It will turn out well in the end. Let's not fight, alright?

428

Huiyan,

429

wait for me. I'll come and look for you in twenty years.

430

Alright?

431

Go to your dad and mom.

432

- Pipi, let's go home.

- Pipi.

433

Let's go home.
