A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

EPISODE 34

I shouldn't keep it from Daoming Si.

I should tell him.

Daoming Si.

-There's something I want to tell you.
-Wait.

I don't want to hear it.

Every time you talk to me seriously,
it's never good.

It's very important.

-It's--
-I don't care. I'm not listening.

-No. I'm not listening.
-Hey.

I'm not listening.

You graduated kindergarten 20 years ago.
Why are you acting like a three-year-old?

And you're acting like an old lady.

We're alone here.
But you just keep frowning.

There you go again.

Always making me nervous with those words.

Who?

There's only the two of us here.

Hey.

How did you become a good kisser?

Didn't you say
you haven't dated anyone before?

All right.

Let me be honest with you.

Back then,

I used to go out partying with Ximen.

But it was a long time ago.

Going out with Ximen and Meizuo
always involves lots of girls.

Those girls made a move on me.

I didn't mind.

Of course.

Those were the things I did in the past.

I've stopped doing them now.

Really?

What's wrong?

That was a long time ago.

Are you jealous?

Don't be so full of yourself.

I don't care how many girls
you've flirted with.

You're jealous.

-Yes!
-I told you I'm not.

It's good to be jealous.
What's wrong with that? Go ahead.

You're so childish.

You don't know what happened today.

I was followed by your bodyguards.

I was forced to hide,

and I couldn't go home.

Good thing Meizuo helped me.

I was terrified.

You wouldn't even listen to me.

-My bodyguards?
-Yes.

-Why didn't you immediately tell me?
-What's the point of telling you?

This is something we should face together.

Who would you tell if not me?

It would only complicate things
if I told you.

Your mom would find out even earlier.

Even Meizuo felt that you'd make it worse.

I didn't want to tell you.

But I don't want to keep it from you.

That's why I don't want to date in secret.

Because I'm not aware of the decisions
you make without me.

Hello?

Daoming Si.

Your bodyguards are looking for you.
I let them in.

Why did you turn off--

Nobody knows me better than my mom.
So I'm the only one who can protect you.

-But--
-Stop hesitating. Go to London with me.

How can we go to London now?

Maybe Qinghe and Xiaoyou's families
are already in trouble

before I could even leave.

I can't just leave them and run away.

This is the only door that's locked.
He should be in there.

What should we do?

We'll be exposed.
They'll get in here soon.

Are there any other exits?

If I'm not mistaken,
there's a window in the bathroom.

Let's go.

Hurry up!

Move faster.

The president said we're inefficient.
We can't even find Si.

Break down the door.

May I ask what you're doing?

Washing my hair.

Can't you see?

But why are you wearing your clothes?

I do it my way.

Do I need to explain to you
how I wash my hair?

You bunch of idiots.

How dare you interfere with my plans.

If this happens again,

I'll beat you up until you cry
to your mothers!

What happened?

Why are you so pissed?

Who made you angry?

She always treats her son like a criminal.

And I had to force Shancai
to run away without her shoes.

Were you doing naughty things?

Of course not.

What are you thinking, old woman?

As if my mom is not bad enough,
now you sound just like her.

My mom asked them to follow me.

They're on to Shancai too.

We almost got caught.

It seems

your mom is getting anxious.

She did the same things to Zhuang before.

I know.

But Mrs. Yu,

what happened to my sister's boyfriend?

He couldn't take your mom's threats
and ran away.

After that happened,

your mom locked Zhuang inside the house.

She refused to eat.

So I secretly let her go.

I hoped she could be happy from then on.

I never thought...

ONE MESSAGE RECEIVED

Sorry. I won't see you again.

Let's break up.

That person wasn't
where they agreed to meet up.

Instead, he contacted your mom

to take Zhuang home.

Ms. Zhuang, let's go home.

Where's that scum right now?

What a useless coward.

He doesn't deserve her!

What worries me the most

was that Zhuang acted normal
during the day,

but always cried herself to sleep.

She faked her smiles

and prepared for a wedding
that she didn't wish for.

She got married soon afterward.

And you already know

what happened next.

Yes.

Who could take

my mom's methods?

Good thing it's all over now.

Don't you think Zhuang is doing well now?

Is she?

Is it good to feel helpless?

Is it good to be

at the mercy of others?

If that's the definition of good,
isn't that really sad?

At that time, my sister
lost the reason to hold on.

She was betrayed by the man she loved.

Si.

Your sister

doesn't blame that person.

So if someday

Shancai gives up on me too,

should I also just accept it?

There were many times

when I thought I'd really lose her.

What are you doing?

How irresponsible.

If Shancai leaves you,

it's definitely not because of your mom.

It's because you gave up so easily.

Stop talking nonsense.

Facing so much restriction and misery
is not easy, you know?

Then you should hold on even more.

I did.

But...

what if I'm the only one holding on?

No matter how much I care for her

and love her,

does she feel the same?

What if Shancai...

What if Shancai gives up on me?

Are you scared?

But this time,

I was really worried that you were scared.

Shancai's not confident

because you're not confident.

Shancai's not at peace because she feels
that you're not at peace.

People's feelings

influence each other.

Nobody knows

what would happen in the future.

But the harder it gets,

the more you should support Shancai.

As long as your hearts
are closely connected,

you'd surely be able
to overcome this together.

I hope the both of you

can be happy.

Did you get home safely?

DAOMING SI

YES

Did you get hurt?

Use voice message.
I want to hear your voice.

I'm not hurt.

I'm fine.

How about you?

Daoming Si.

Sorry.

I should've told you earlier.

If you don't reply, I'll come see you now.

If you don't reply, I'll come see you now.

I'm home. I didn't get hurt.

What are you doing?

I took care of what happened today.

Don't think about it anymore.

Is my shoe with you?

Yes.

Then remember to bring it tomorrow.

And...

Thank you.

TALENT'S TEA SHOP

-Shancai.
-Yes?

I really can't do it without you.

I'm Wonder Woman. I'm strong.

Shancai.

Sorry.

I almost forgot.

You, Ximen and Meizuo
planned to trick me yesterday.

It was all my fault.

I didn't know you'd care about me
so much that...

Sorry.

It's all right.

That's just how they are.

I couldn't say no to Ximen.

I told you it's all right.

Don't worry about it.

What's the matter?

Did something happen with Ximen yesterday?

What did he do to you?

Nothing. We just had some coffee.

-Just coffee?
-Yes.

All right.

But stay away from Ximen.
Don't let your guard down.

Why? I don't want to.

I want to get closer to him
and understand him better.

Wait.

Wait, Xiaoyou. Are you serious?

You really like Ximen?

He's a dangerous, frivolous,
and flirtatious guy.

Don't say that about him.

Sorry.

But are you serious?

Yes.

I never thought I'd have feelings for him.

But what can I do?

I feel like I'm liking him more and more.

I'm so shocked.

This is the first time
I'm seeing Xiaoyou with that expression.

While I'm busy worrying about my problems,

my best friend has fallen
for other F4 members.

I didn't even notice it.

Xiaoyou.

I'm happy that you like someone.

But it's Ximen.

You'll get hurt because of him.

I see him with different girls
every single day.

He's a playboy, you know?

-I know.
-You know...

You know, yet...

I'm not his type.

But I just happen to like him
and I can't even explain it.

I know I'll get hurt,

but I like being around him.

TALENT'S TEA SHOP

Why is it so hard?

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Two, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Three, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Four, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Hello?

-Well...
-What?

I...

Did you bring my shoe?

I did.

Okay. Thank you.

-That's it. Bye.
-Hold on.

How do I give it to you?

Right. How would you give it to me?

Look on your right side.

Right side, stupid girl!

The next time you call me,
can you not dance first?

Because you look so funny.

Why are you here?

To return your shoe.

That's just an excuse.
Actually, I want to see you.

I can't stop Xiaoyou.

Because I know better than anyone

that you can't control your feelings.

This is the power of love.

Thank you.

Hey, can you put your phone down now?

So you're off work already?

Yes. Xiaoyou just left.

Wait.

What if they found you here?

Don't worry.

I'm in disguise.

You call that a disguise?

Didn't you notice how much attention
you've attracted?

Stop talking nonsense. Where are we going?

So this is the place you said

we can talk quietly?

How would I know it'd turn out this way?

Or are you

hinting something?

Yeah, right! You think too much.

All right.

What a shame.

Let's go somewhere else.

Why? Do you have something to tell me?

I want to tell you

that I didn't keep anything
from you on purpose.

Initially, I didn't want to mention

that I was followed by your bodyguards
because I meant well.

You did? I'm not sure about that.

-You don't believe me?
-That's not the issue.

Then what's the issue?

I love you.

Why did you suddenly say that?

How about you?
I want to know how you really feel.

-I told you I want to be with you.
-That's not enough.

How is it not enough?

I want it to be clearer.

I don't want vague answers.

I want to clearly confirm
that you really want to be with me.

Why is it still vague to you?

Which part of it do you not understand?

I'm not sure what the fuss is about.

You never told me that you love me.

I feel very uncertain.

Like you'd leave me anytime.

I've been waiting all this time.

But it seems like
you don't plan to say it.

Do you really have to force me
to tell you this?

How stupid can you get?

Turns out Daoming Si wants me
to tell him clearly.

He thinks my answers are vague.

He wants everything to be clear.

That's really nice.

I admire you.

There you go again.

You get on my nerves
every time you speak nonsense.

Hello? What is it?

It's just a simple line.

"I love you."

Why do I always mess it up
when the timing is right?

Okay, no problem.

Shancai?

All right. Cut the crap.

Bye.

Who was it? Why did you mention my name?

Ximen said he'll throw
a National Tea Tasting Party

at his house.

You're invited.

National Tea Tasting Party?

Your friend is invited as well.

Xiaoyou?

Will Ximen be there?

The party is at his house.
What do you expect?

So? Are you going or not?

Of course!

But...

let's go separately.

Haven't we already agreed?

When did you two become familiar
with the Way of Tea?

We were exposed to it
since we were little.

I see.

What do you think about the tea culture?

Because of my good friend, Ximen,

I can call myself a tea expert.

Whether it's green tea, black tea,
semi-fermented tea, or dark tea,

I know them well.

What kind of tea do you personally like?

Assam black tea because it's quite unique.

It has a rich and strong taste.
Its aroma is very pure.

You can enjoy it with milk.

So I think

it's quite special to drink that at home.

-I think everyone should try it.
-Any other recommendations?

Shancai, you're here.

You're so late. We're all waiting for you.

Where are the others?

They changed into cheongsams.
Aren't you going to change too?

Cheongsam?

Is that necessary?
I've never worn one before.

Maybe because green tea is lighter?

The lightness is not the problem. It's...

If you don't know how to wear it,
ask the expert.

Expert?

He's inside.

I don't think I can do it.

It's all right. Leave it to me.

Don't move! Ximen, stop!

You're here.

What are you doing?

I was helping her put it on.

Did it look like
I'm unbuttoning her dress?

What do you think?

Anyone who sees this will think you're...

Shancai, you're really funny.

I'm serious.

Why did she need your help
to button her up?

The cheongsam requires a pair
of patient and skillful hands.

In tea ceremonies,
I'd help ladies in their preparations,

so that they'll look their best.

Shancai.

I don't look good
in this cheongsam, right?

Nonsense.

I prepared this cheongsam just for you.

It fits you well.

But isn't cheongsam usually worn
by women with very good figures?

My figure doesn't compliment
this cheongsam.

The only problem is your confidence.

Lack of confidence decreases your charm.

The cheongsam is not for just
one type of woman.

Every woman who wears it
has their own charms.

So you're the cheongsam expert
they were referring to?

Of course. Don't I look like it?

What?

You should go change too.

But experts can also make mistakes

since the cheongsam

cannot be worn by frogs.

You...

Ximen.

Do you usually hold such gatherings?

After graduation,
I rarely hold it like I used to.

However, your waist is really big.

What do you want me to do?
I'm a frog with a big waist. So what?

Don't worry. Si likes you no matter what.

Ximen.

Can you promise me one thing?

What is it?

I want to talk

-about you and Xiaoyou--
-If we're alone too long,

Si won't be happy about it.

Why would he be unhappy?

Hey.

Don't I look handsome?

You look like a waiter in Hengdian.

How could you say that?

You look like you sell pork buns
in tea houses.

Si, aren't you getting Shancai a drink?

Can't she get it herself?

Fine feathers make you look fine.

Fine feathers make fine birds.

Did you purposely say it wrong?

I was complimenting you.

Stupid girl. Don't you get it?

I look hideous in cheongsam.
That's not funny at all.

Then you don't have a sense of humor.

Stop staring, or I'll kill you.

You two are so sweet.

I'm so jealous.

What? We're not.

Gotcha.

Hey, Li Zhen, you too...

Fight some more.

Don't be ridiculous.

It's fun to see Si and Shancai argue.

That's right. It's not any fun otherwise.

All right. We're all here.
Let's start the party!

Yes!

Yes!

Come on. Two, three.

Come on.

Drink.

All right.

-Okay. Again.
-Okay. Again.

Drink.

-Drink.
-No. Another round.

-Why do I always lose?
-Drink.

-You drank all these.
-Yes.

-You're not drinking?
-That's enough.

You drank too much.

Daoming Si.

-What should we do?
-About what?

Everyone's worried about us.

They're so sincere.

Yet I've been keeping things from them.

Sorry.

I'm too weak.

Daoming Si should know
that this relationship needs commitment.

I should have made it clear to him
long ago, but I never had the chance.

Should I do it now?

I...

All this time,

I...

I love you.

I didn't say that, right?

I know.

Ximen.

I love you.

Thank you.

I love you too.

Ximen is going to break Xiaoyou's heart.

I'm serious.

I know.

Girls who make serious confessions
are beautiful.

You were quite beautiful earlier.

What is he talking about?

Shut up.

But why

are you saying this?

What do you want?

To go out on a date,

hug, or kiss?

Xiaoyou.

I think you've misunderstood.

I'm a good person,

but not a good man.

You should find a good man to protect you.

All right?

Why do you always pretend to act
like a bad guy in front of me?

-Why do you live this way?
-Xiaoyou.

Self-righteous girls

are a turn-off.

That guy is really crazy this time.

Xiaoyou.

Sorry.

I overheard you earlier.

It's so embarrassing.
You saw what happened.

I slapped Ximen earlier.

Turns out hitting someone

also hurts your own hand.

I have to do better.

What are you trying to say?

I think I understand Ximen more now.

I'll do better next time.

But didn't you get rejected earlier?

Shancai.

I hope you'll cheer for me.

Please.

You can do it.

It's a good thing.
I think Ximen's very honest.

Says who?

I usually can't tell
whether he's telling the truth or not.

He can reject her all he wants,
but why say such outrageous things?

He didn't flirt or date that girl first.

He rejected her directly.

If I didn't see it for myself,
I wouldn't believe it.

So you mean I should even thank him?

Tell your friend to give up.

-Or else, she'll get hurt.
-Don't jinx it.

It's true.

It's not possible for her and Ximen.

She's going to be more upset.

Aren't you worried for the same reason?

Hey.

Don't just think about other people.

Think about us too.

How long will we go on like this?

How long do I have to wait

for you to tell me what you truly feel?

Just...

wait a bit more.

Are you still the same person?

Lately, I feel

that you're not the Shancai
I've always liked anymore.

-It's not that easy.
-It is!

No.

If we tell everyone
about our relationship,

the lives of people around us
would change.

You won't understand.

There you go again.

You're always like this.

I don't understand.

So you do?

Then protect them on your own.

He's right.

This is not like me at all.

I know that better than anyone.

But...

Si, where are you going?

-Home.
-Home?

What?

Home? Who's going home?

It's late. I should get going too.

It's too late. It might be dangerous.

Just stay here.

Yes, just stay here.

We can have a sleepover tonight.

A sleepover.

-Si, stay here tonight too.
-No.

What happened?

Why do you suddenly want to go home?

-Nothing happened.
-I'm sure something did.

Shancai, what's going on with you two?

Why are you two so confused?

Daoming Si.

I love you.

Listen, everyone.

Daoming Si and I

have been dating for a while now.

Sorry that we kept it from you.

It's not strange that you're dating,

but did you just confess your feelings?

Yes.

Si, why are you still standing there?
Shancai confessed her feelings.

Aren't you going to do anything?

I want to live like myself.

I finally said it.

Around the arms tightly holding me,

I can hear everyone's cheers.

This moment

is mine.

I cannot explain

how amazing it feels right now.
