[When I Meet The Moon]

[Episode 17]

[Steal A Moment To Sip Wine Guesthouse]

Have one.

I just can't get over it.

If he has plans with someone else,

why did he wait for me to get off work?

Didn't they say there's a pervert around?

He was worried about you,

so he wanted to walk you home.

Who asked for his concern?

I finally

strengthened my emotional armor.

But he...

As soon as I saw him,

it... it collapsed.

If he'd just ignored me

from beginning to end,

I might've moved on long ago.

That's not how it works.

If he didn't come to you,

you'd be moping again.

Ugh, I don't know what to do with him.

You see,

he dressed up so nicely

and even ordered flowers.

After work,

he should've just gone on his date.

Why did he wait for me?

Does he pity me?

Am I,

Yun Li, someone

at his beck and call?

You are.

Tang Lin,

whose side are you on?

Alright, Lili.

I'm 100% on your side,

of course.

But seriously,

haven't you considered

you might be the one he wanted to ask out?

How's that possible?

They said that woman

has known him for years.

How could it be me?

Huh?

That was what others said.

You have to ask him in person.

I've been chasing him for so long,

and he kept rejecting me.

He refused every time I asked him out.

Besides, he hasn't reached out to me

for so long.

I bet he doesn't even know

I deleted him on WeChat.

You even deleted him on WeChat?

You two still

work in the same company.

Interactions are inevitable.

Isn't it awkward?

Actually, I regret it a little bit.

Should I add him back?

He probably didn't even notice.

But what if he did?

Wouldn't that be more awkward?

Forget it.

Actually, for you two,

having clear boundaries isn't a bad thing.

There are plenty of good men around.

There's no need

to pine away for one guy.

In that case, are you still

going to that hot spring hotel?

What hot spring hotel?

The year-end party Xia invited us to.

I wonder if

Fu Shize will go.

But if you don't want to go...

I didn't say I wouldn't go.

Am I that petty?

You said it yourself—

it's just normal interaction between colleagues.

What's wrong with colleagues going on

a team-building event?

It's fine.

I'll just ask Xia

to invite two single

colleagues to join us...

No!

If you bring them, I won't go.

Yun Ye,

I'm so done with you.

Report to me as soon as class is over.

Hey, Li.

Don't tell me

you just saw my text.

I've been busy.

I had consecutive exams in Chinese, English,

and Physics just days ago.

I barely have any brain cells left.

You're so busy,

yet you still have time to send postcards?

Wait, how do you know?

Her brother came to me

just to ask if

you were the one sending his sister

postcards.

Sending them every week,

you're quite persistent, huh?

Wait,

how did her brother know

it was me?

Ten postcards,

all with the exact same handwriting.

What were you thinking?

Her brother read my letters?

I also think

he read your letters.

No way, that's too shameless.

It is, a little.

But Yun Ye,

what if

this

affects the girl's grades?

You still need to, you know,

tone it down a bit.

No, no, no.

Yun Li,

your brother's letters were read,

and you won't stand up for me?

Yun Ye,

prolonged one-sided giving

is a recipe for hurt and heartbreak.

You need to love yourself more, you know?

Wait,

how am I hurt?

She tutored me in math,

so my grades even improved.

Li,

why are you suddenly saying this?

It's just advice

from someone who's been there.

That guy doesn't like you?

Let's go back to talking about you.

I think her family doesn't plan to interfere,

as long as it doesn't affect her studies.

He just

came to me to confirm it.

Does that mean I can

keep sending postcards?

I don't support teenage dating.

If there's nothing else, I'll hang up.

Bye.

Let me do it, Lili.

Thanks.

Yesterday, I saw a drone

in your video.

Is it for my uncle?

Yes,

but I'm not giving it to him anymore.

Did you have a fight?

No.

I just don't want to anymore.

Did Uncle do something

to upset you?

Yun Li.

Qingsong, hang on.

I still

have something to say to Lili.

Fu Zhengchu,

is there a woman who your uncle has

known for a long time

and is very close to?

Lili,

do you think Uncle

likes someone else?

I'm just asking.

The only girls and women around him

are blood-related

relatives.

And don't worry.

There's no way

he likes anyone else.

Are you sure?

Of course.

Uncle!

Uncle.

What drinks did you get?

I want one.

Get in.

Do you have to be so stingy?

Let's get in, Lili.

Chocolate milk.

No thanks. I'll just have water.

Is everyone here?

Let's set off then.

What's wrong, Yun Li?

Mr. Xu, your clothes

are quite fancy.

Are they?

They look good on you.

I've always thought

Shize dresses too plainly.

I tried giving him some clothes,

but he refused them all.

Why?

Because Uncle thinks they're ugly.

Will it kill you to stay quiet?

Just drive.

We're off.

This place looks nice.

Yeah? Does it meet your standards?

My bro does have good taste.

I... I can do it myself.

Tangy, Xia.

Lili, why are you so late?

I...

Where are the rest?

They're right behind.

Lili,

you're so fast!

Lili,

let me introduce you.

This is Chen Renran,

my college classmate.

He works in semiconductors.

Hello, Yun Li.

Hello.

This is Lu Yu.

He works in AI;

also my college classmate.

Hello.

This is my brother,

Fu Zhengchu,

currently studying at NUST.

Wow,

an elite student!

No, not at all.

Don't praise him.

It'll go straight to his head.

Lili's the amazing one.

She's a content creator on EAW,

with tons of followers.

Tangy, stop it.

Really?

I'm on EAW a lot.

What's your username?

I'll follow you.

I... um...

Excuse me.

Let's go.

I'll help you with your luggage.

I'll see you later.

This is my brother, Xu Qingsong.

Hello.

Let's go too.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Go!

Thanks.

Lili!

Lili.

Why didn't you tell me there were other people?

Those are Xia's friends.

They happen to be returning to Nanwu,

so we just... came together.

On their own,

they're nice, clean-cut guys.

But compared to the three

you came with,

they do fall a bit short.

But...

While good looks are a gift,

good character is a choice.

Don't just judge them

by their appearance.

What did you

tell them?

I only said you were single.

I...

Lili,

I'm doing this for your own good.

You can't

put all your eggs in one basket.

You should get out there

and meet other guys.

It might

help you move on from

the whole situation with Fu Shize.

Lili!

Am I right?

Yes.

What year

of college did we play this game?

Sophomore year?

End of sophomore year.

Right.

He even missed his assignment deadline.

Yun Li!

Sit here.

You're here.

It's okay. I'll sit here.

I'm asking Uncle

when he's coming over.

-Tangy. -Hi.

I saved you a seat.

Sit here.

Have a drink.

Why are you sitting there?

I sit wherever I want.

It's none of your business.

Uncle.

Looking good.

Qingsong's clothes actually

suit you so well.

I don't have a change of clothes.

Stop staring.

Lili,

this sofa is huge.

Why are you suddenly so close to me?

I feel more at ease next to you.

So?

Any idea what we should play?

I just unboxed a new game:

Halli Galli.

This is fun.

It tests your reflexes. Super exciting.

What are the rules?

The rules are simple.

Everyone takes turns flipping a card.

Once there are

five of the same fruit on the table,

you have to ring the bell.

The last to ring the bell

has to give everyone else a card.

In the end,

the one with the most cards wins.

Wait!

I want to sit here.

Why did you suddenly change seats?

I'm... afraid you'll cheat.

I'll watch you.

Are you serious?

How can you cheat in this game?

I don't care.

Let's start.

Yun Li,

did you understand the rules?

Or should I repeat them for you?

Actually...

Let's start.

Ready?

I'll start.

Uncle,

how are you so fast?

Come on, continue.

Strawberries!

Hey, Chen,

you're pretty good too.

What do you mean, "Chen"?

Are you that close?

Oh, shut up.

Flip your card.

Continue.

Ouch! Fu Zhengchu!

Do you have to hit so hard?

Are you born stubborn?

It hurts.

What are you two doing?

It doesn't hurt.

I feel nothing.

Is this the famous fight to be the alpha?

Come on.

Again, again.

Go.

Lili,

you don't have many cards left.

You have to step up.

Uncle,

there aren't five fruits.

It's a foul to ring the bell.

Take the penalty.

My bad.

Let's continue.

Whose turn is it?

Uncle,

why are you

suddenly so slow to react?

Why don't we...

play another game?

What?

I'm finally

not the loser.

Let's play a bit more.

I...

Let's switch. Enough of this.

Then let's switch.

What should we play?

Let's play High Card Draw.

The person with the highest card

can ask

anyone here a question.

It's simple and thrilling.

Well, I brought a bottle of red wine.

I'll bring it over

to spice things up.

Sure.

Okay.

Put this away.

No thanks.

I-I'll drink orange juice.

It's fine.

Hold onto it. You can have a taste later.

None for me, thanks.

Okay.

Then let's start.

-Come on. -Okay.

No need to look.

I'm winning this round.

I have the highest card, don't I?

I lost.

Go on and ask someone a question.

Chen,

are you single?

Yes.

Oh, single!

Come on.

Continue.

Another round.

Three, two, one!

-Ten. -Eight.

I got a Q.

Then you ask.

Yun Li,

among

everyone here,

who are you most interested in?

No one.

If you have to name one?

You can only ask one question.

Come on.

Another round.

Come on.

Next round.

Come on.

Jackpot!

Q!

He got a K.

Finally won a round.

Then I'll ask Yun Li too.

Among everyone here, who do you think is

the best looking?

Fu Zhengchu!

Me?

I'm the best looking?

Next round.

You all go on.

I need to get some air.

I suddenly feel a bit tired.

I'll go to my room.

Have fun.

There's a hot spring in the room.

You can use it.

Lili, what about you?

I'll go with you.

Let's go.

Then I'll go back too.

I'll take a bath.

Bye.

Let's go.

Okay.

-Bye. -Bye.

I'll be going too.

Bye!

You're leaving too?

Bye.

See you.

The three of us can continue.

Let's go on.

You really know how to enjoy yourself.

What's wrong?

In a bad mood?

Didn't she always say...

I'm better looking than Fu Zhengchu?

Is this what's been bothering you?

Since when do you

care so much about what others think?

Do you really think

Fu Zhengchu's the best looking?

Can you not expose me?

I knew

your taste wasn't that bad.

Then choose again.

I choose...

Mr. Xu.

Think again.

I think that Chen guy

is decent.

Of course,

Fu Shize wore a floral shirt today.

He did look really good.

Don't tell me

you're obsessed with him again

just because

of a stupid floral shirt.

I'm not

that shallow!

That'd better be true!

Tang Lin!

Do you remember

that Fu Shize wanted to ask out

a girl he's known

for a long time?

I remember.

Why?

But Fu Zhengchu said that people

he's known for a long time

are all blood relatives.

So,

did... did I misunderstand him?

Even if it was a misunderstanding,

he's been rejecting you up until now.

Lili.

I think that Chen guy

is quite fond of you.

You need to know

that you're very popular.

Stop mentioning him.

Why don't you just ask him?

You're just torturing yourself

by dwelling on this.

But he's rejected me

so many times.

Wouldn't asking again

just make me look pathetic?

Lili,

I didn't know

you've been hiding such a great figure!

Tangy!

Who's that?

I...

Here, have a drink.

About the restaurant thing you mentioned...

Jiameng told Yun Li?

Well, didn't I help you fend off an unwanted suitor?

I'm going to die of embarrassment.

Oh my gosh, they heard everything.

I think you shouldn't overthink it.

Maybe they didn't

even hear anything.

T-They even knocked on the wall.

Even if they heard us,

it's no big deal.

It is a big deal!

Oh my gosh, just kill me!

I was embarrassing when I was chasing him,

and I'm still embarrassing when I'm not chasing him.

Gosh,

I'm just a huge embarrassment.

There, there.

Xia asked us to play cards.

I'm not going.

Then I won't go either.

But he's rejected me

so many times.

Wouldn't asking again

just make me look pathetic?

Just got up?

Wanna have breakfast with me?

They're wrapping up soon.

Thanks.

There's nothing much left.

Want some toast?

Oh, I can do it myself.

Thanks.

Take a seat.

I'll bring it over.

Okay, thanks.

What a coincidence.

Can I sit here?

Fu Shize... is toasting the bread.

Are you two in the talking stage?

You're late.

There's nothing much left.

How about

I take you out to eat?

Thanks.

I'll just have the toast.

Thanks.

I warmed it with boiling water,

so it took a while.

Just coffee for breakfast?

That won't do.

H-Here, have this.

And this.

I didn't touch it.

Thanks.

I... I forgot my bag.

I...

Where we just ate?

I'll go.

Yun Li.

Waiting for someone?

I just want to confirm this—

you're not dating anyone,

right?

Okay.

I'll be straightforward.

I'm interested in you.

But if you like someone else,

or if

you're in a relationship,

please tell me.

Let's not waste each other's time.

You and Congsheng's uncle

are clearly not just friends.

If you're flirting with him

just to

reject me,

it's completely unnecessary.

How are we

not just friends?

What kind of friends act like this?

Let's go.

What's on your mind?

I'm...

thinking about how friends should interact.

The grove's decorated with lights.

They turn it on during dinner.

Let's go.

Lili,

are you really going to stay in?

Yeah.

I must finish

editing this today.

I'll get going then.

Bye.

Go ahead.

Upload!

The grove's decorated with lights.

They turn it on during dinner.

Don't catch a cold.

You're here.

I'm going back to my room.

This is for you.

Can you wait two minutes before you leave?

I came out alone.

Yeah.

When you wake up tomorrow,

will what you just said still count?

It will.

Then can you stop drinking

the rest of your wine?

Mm.

I'm taking it.

Did... Didn't you say

you don't have a change of clothes?

You said...

Xu Qingsong dresses better.

You wore it for me?

Good night.

Not bad.

You only drank half a bottle today.

Where did you go?

To confess.

To confess?

To Yun Li?

No wonder you

insisted on wearing my clothes yesterday.

Then...

am I

interrupting you two?

Nope.

This is nice too.

Is that a token of love

in your hands?

Mm.

Let me see.

Take her to the aquarium tomorrow.

You can use my car.

Remember to bring a little gift.
