The first time I met Qiyue,

was when I was thirteen years old.

A distant future

To their people,

the friendship between them

was a result of choice.

This is a serial novel on the Internet right now.

It's not finished yet.

Our company bought the rights.
I'd like to turn it into a play.

I can't get ahold of the writer.

I'd like to ask you for some help.

I don't know what you want from me.

An Internet novel.

This is your best friend.
It's written about Qiyue.

That's who we're talking about.

From age 13 to 26.

You're the one who's name's in here.

That's my name, sure enough.

But this isn't my life.

I don't know Qiyue.

But the places are real.

There are two separate personalities.
I went to my hometown and found out.

I found a small forest
that was in the novel.

Also, I found a teacher at the time.

He said,

She'd written well when she was young.

Qiyue ..

That name is very special.

Qiyue and Ansheng (Soul Mate)

Ansheng.

Long time no see.

Excuse me.

Take a seat.

No, it's all right.

How long have you been in Shanghai?

What have you been doing?

It's been a few years since I came here.

I work for an e-commerce company right now.

Didn't you get married and live abroad?

I broke up with him a while ago.

But how do you know that?

In a novel written by Qiyue.

It's serialised on the Internet.

I got it from there.

I didn't even look at it.

Is Qiyue doing all right?

I don 't know.

- We lost contact a long time ago.
- I thought you got along fine.

There's no such thing as someone
who doesn't break up forever.

And anyway,

out of the three of us,
didn't you run away first?

Ansheng!

That year, she was thirteen years old.

The first time Qiyue met Ansheng.

One, two

Attention!

One, two

Right turn.

Right turn.

On the spot, march.

One two

What is this?

Don't you know you shouldn't let your
hair out during military training?

Come on. Tie your hair up.

Oh no.

Hey.

What are you guys doing?

Attention!

One.

One.

Don't lower it.

You two went out of line,

so the whole group is being punished.

Don't lower your hand

I'll see.

No way!

Come on, let's go!

All right, water's ready.

What are you guys still
doing in your clothes?

Mum, you gotta go out first.

Okay. Wash up right away.

You have one of those?

You look relieved.

Don't talk like boys in the class, that's
the same thing they would say.

I'll help you.

Your bra is so bulky.

Mum bought it.

Don't you feel trapped in it?

It's painful, isn't it?

A little bit. Mum says I
needs to get used to it.

Girls say they should get used to a
lot of uncomfortable things later.

Qiyue.

Yes?

Can you show me your boobs?

What?

Show me your boobs.

Now you.

You're starting to grow up, too?

Your mum hasn't gotten you a bra?

She doesn't know.

Then you should talk to her.

I don't even want to let you know.

I'd rather die than wear one.

The rice is ready.
Dinner is served.

This is yours.

Come on, let's eat.

Slow down.

Look at that.

Dig in.

Qiyue.

We know how to take care of people.

Leaving the most delicious part of the meat

You'll get left behind.

I'm afraid we won't be able to eat enough of this.

I can't even eat one.

You know, people just love what they're doing.
If I can eat it, I love it.

Grab it, others can be selfish.

Actually, I don't really want
to eat dumplings.

It's oily inside.

You're gonna have to come eat
at my house every day.

Eat everything up.

When you're finished with your clothes, I'll
take you back to your house.

I've already said we could hang out.

What are you talking about?

Her mum and dad will be waiting for her.

Right.

My dad died a while ago.

Mum, she's always on business. She's not home.

Come on, let's eat.

Eat up.

- You too.
- Plenty to go round.

Let's go back home again today.

OK.

I don't know what you're gonna do today,

Ansheng!

Keys?

I don't want to go home.

Im not going home!

Her bag.

From thirteen to fifteen years old

For three years, neither the sun
nor the flesh fell apart.

In some cases, Qiyue was the shadow of Ansheng.

In some cases, Ansheng was the shadow of Qiyue.

In some stories, it says

If you can step on someone's shadow,

you would never be separated the rest of your life.

Ansheng said life was too long.

And just wanted to live 27 years.

After graduating from middle school,

Qiyue went to a prestigious school.

Ansheng went to vocational school.

To borrow an expression from life,

After nine years' absence.

I don't need to write any more compositions.

No marks for behaviour,
I am able to go to school.

Her tastes simply caught her fancy.

Is it all right?

Breastbone.

Stop talking rubbish, okay?

I told you.

Even the best foreign models,

they're not all dressed up like me.

I can't do that.

How about you don't wear it?

Why don't you feel what freedom is?

The gate's closed.

All because of you.

You're gonna have to talk straight.

Who's been dragging their feet in the lingerie store.

Yeah, well, I think playing around, you
can find exactly what you're looking for.

Take it slow.

I'll work magic for you.

Ansheng.

Stop playing about, I'm nervous.

Not pretty enough.

- Is this right?
- No, no, no.

Does that look similar?

Let's go

Put these in too, it's gonna
cost a bit more.

Did you get it?

Ready to eat.

Come on. Let's go.

Try to parboil it lightly.

Cook the meat a little more.

Try a little.

Ansheng.

You seem to have lost weight these days?

All I need is another one who sounds ironic.

Auntie, my genes are naturally thin.

Unlike other people.

What do you mean by that?

Mum, she's always making fun of me.

Bon appetit.

Ansheng, have a bit more.

Girls need to know how to
take care of themselves.

Now I often come home and eat rice, too.

The environment outside isn't good,
and the food isn't clean either.

Mum, what about mine?

It's in the kitchen.

Oh, there's a potato.I know
you like them.

- Slice it up.
- All right.

Now help yourself.

Ansheng, I'm a little concerned.

Come home and talk to your aunt.

There's more than just Qiyue.

People bring joy.

It's no trouble at all.

Auntie, here's a present for you.

I've never had earrings from Qiyue.

Thank you.

I've gotta try them on.

Qiyue gave these to me.

She's much older than you.

Stop putting it on.

You don't think this is stealing?

I didn't pay, if you call that stealing.

Did I ever tell you I took the money?

You can pay it back in a few days.

At the bar, people drink first, pay later.

They're so beautiful.

Help yourself.

Mum, we're gonna go out.

Where are you going at this hour?

Where is it?

Only ten minutes more.

When your mother sees you, don't
put things in my youse.

Like male celebrity nude photos
or love letters from men.

Where am I?

Are you following me?

Come on.

Where are we?

Hurry up.

Let's go. Be careful.

This is just a light bulb. It won't pop.

What do you think?

Is everything okay?

Here, I'll help.

- Calm down.
- This is awesome!

You always have your closet,
I told you I don't like it.

I'm gonna buy a gigantic wardrobe
and put it over there.

Foreign-made, European furniture.

That's too expensive.

You can put a few pads over there.

I'll be rich later.

I'll put a big bookcase her,

We should put all kinds of books
in it, the ones you like best.

You're gonna have to spend money

After paying rent and eating rice ...

How much do you have to earn?

I'm gonna be really successful later on!

I know.

Where's the bathroom? I gotta go.

Oh, that's a joke.

I'm going to kill you an inch at a time.

I can handle it.

Qiyue, you don't know.

I've finally got a chance to welcome you.

Still, I'm not gonna stay here.

Then where are you going?

If you really had a lot of money,

where do you want to go?

Where do you want to go?

My Mum said,

women have nowhere to go.

Just a home. I'm going to another home.

You believe that?

I've already thought about it.

I think I'm destined to wander
around the world

But for now,

my home will always be your home.

Come on, take my sturdy arm and lay down.

You're not a man.

Is there a man?

Are you sure?

Really?

I think he likes me a lot.

He's handsome.

He likes listening to music.

He's also the captain of the track team.

The most important thing is ...

In the mid-term tests,

he was just one grade higher
than me in all of them.

Don't you think it's destiny?

You really want to have a romance?

I told you that I used to be in that story before.

Unless you love him very much,

men are so hard to bear.

But that's exactly what's happening.
You really don't need to love him.

Because you need to love yourself anyway.

What's his name?

Jiameng

Isn't that a nice sound?

Good

Su Jiameng

Ansheng heard the name of
Jiameng for the first time.

I never meant to say anything, but ...

in fact, the first time she met Jiameng,

was not when Qiyue introduced them.

Hi, do you know Su Jiameng?

Do you know Su Jiameng?

Hey, do you know Su Jiameng?

Looks like she's looking for Jiameng.

Got anything else to say?

Back there

Right there, over there.

- Is your name Su Jiameng?
- Yeah.

Are you dating?

No.

What girls like you?
Or are you different?

No.

So who's your type?
Or is someone after you?

I don't think so.

So it's like this.

You must be pretty popular.

Do you usually look at yourself
in the mirror?

Anyway, what I'm saying is,

some girl likes you.

I'll leave you to it. You'd
better straighten it out.

I told you, it's sorted out.

What are you doing chasing me?

Who the hell are you?

Don't ask me philosophical questions.

If I see you again,

don't say that you've met me before.

Thanks for buying me a practice exam book.

Thank you.

I just need to get one more thing.

Oh! That's right.
Did you find all the references you said?

No, most of them have already been taken out.

The students here are really fast.

I've just returned one. I'll find it for you.

I'll do it.

My friend said,

If you like someone, you have to be aggressive.

Jiameng

I like you.

Let's read the text from here.

Jiameng.

Ansheng.

Cut it out.

You go ahead.

Why do you want me to go ahead?

Well, uh ... where did I see it?

If you catch someone's shadow,
he doesn't go far.

I'll come to your side by myself.

Oh, my dear!

- I ...
- Here we are.

Hi

Do you know me?

What are you staring at?

No.

Because you're Qiyue's best friend,

I thought I should take a good look at you.

I didn't even ask if you were coming.

You've got a boyfriend. He's here.

Anyway, we're here.

This is Jiameng.
This is Ansheng.

I'm going to the bathroom.

Wait for me at the bar.

Sit down.

I'd like some water.

And a glass

And some ice

And a drink.

Thank you.

This is exactly what I wanted.

I didn't give this a second thought, given
that her friend is so unique.

I didn't know if this would be so much
fun for Qiyue's boyfriend, either.

- When is Qiyue's birthday?
- Qiyue's birthday. When is it?

- What does she see in you?
- What do you like about her?

I like everything about her.

Everything about Qiyue, I like.

Well, then, if we both do,
that's something in common.

You don't like me that much, do you?

How did you end up with Qiyue?

Show me your hand.

I don't think so. I don't really like it.

What are you staring at?

Go sit over there.

The next song is the last one tonight.

This one's for you, Ansheng.

What did that guy on stage say to you?

What's going on here?

It's the fifth day. He's giving me a song.

I'm calling him out, I follow him.

I always figured I'd live to be 27
years old, he said he was gonna die.

Why?

His idol died when he was 27.

Isn't my friend super funny?

I was afraid you wouldn't like her.

How's that?

I really want to live my life.

I like how you look right now.

Cheer up

Go!

You took away my painting,
give it back to me if I win.

Go for it!

Come on.

Careful, watch out.

I'll go ahead and wait.

I can't keep up.

How much longer?

It's not half done yet.

My favourite people are here with me.

I'm gonna climb up.
Should I make a wish?

Who's going to stay with you?

I'll go ahead and find the way.

Don't go, there's ghosts there.

I can't go any farther.

Come with me, I'll help you.

Catch up with her.
I'm gonna rest here.

- Then I won't go up either.
- You're gonna need to watch out for her.

She's crazy about what she does.

Why have you come to this place?

Come on, stop that. Get out here.

Yes, well, uh ... I need
learn more about it.

Actually, I don't really believe in it.

But I still need to respect it.

Come to think of it, that doesn't sound right.

You say you don't believe it,

but always have a Buddha symbol around your neck.

How do you know that?

I know everything.

I was seriously ill when I was young.

My mother went to the Hall of Fame.

It prevents bad auras.

The disease was treated in a hospital.

I didn't get ill, so I didn't get rid of it.

Can I see it for a second?

So, if not for your mother,

you wouldn't have met me or Qiyue.

What's wrong?

You have low physical strength, like me.
Are you surprised that I came up here?

Let's go.

You two go by bus.

I'll ride the bike.

It's a done deal, I like riding.

Are you really going to visit that guitarist?

Why?

This town is too small.

I'm fed up with it.

And apart from you,

he's the only one who loves me.

Are you sure?

He sang songs for me,

We eat together.

We share alike.

The only thing that's worse

Is that he doesn't wash with me, like you did.

Do you love him?

He suits me well.

All aboard. Everybody aboard.

What if he doesn't love you?

But I still have you.

Look at this. This is the coat
we went shopping in.

These are the clothes you gave me
that were too small.

And this is what we won in the market together.

Don't worry about it.
I won't forget you.

Don't cry. It's ugly.

Give me a little smile.

Then, when will you be back?

Do you really want to break up like this?

Are you gonna chase the train later?

I hate you!

Qiyue.

If you tell me not to go, I won't.

Let's go.

Qiyue cried for a long time.

I didn't tell Jiameng.

It's not sad that Ansheng left,

but that I was disappointed in myself.

As much as one likes, I'm disappointed
because I can't love you.

Everything in life, I'm disappointed
that I can't share it with anyone.

I never knew before.

This is what it's like to be an adult.

I settled in Beijing.

This place is too dry. I often
get nosebleeds at night.

But I'm adapting pretty quickly.

He performs every night.
I work part-time at the bar.

I made a lot of new friends, too.

The outside world is really big.

I want to see you.
Can you reply?

Say hello to Jiameng.

I've been waiting for your letter
a long time, Ansheng.

Soon it will be exams.

We plan to go to the same school.

He's a doctor and I'm a middle school physician.

But my parents say they want me to
change to the economics department.

It's easy to find a stable job in the future.

Suddenly, I feel very distant.

I always imagined I had you in the future.

Make sure you do what you like.

I almost died of inhalation.
Fortunately, we got out alive.

I figured out why. I still have
8 years left until I'm 27.

If I'd died already, don't you think
you would have lost too much?

Say hello to Jiameng.

I entered university.

Class is really boring.

I'm afraid I won't get good grades
at the end of the semester.

I had a lot of free time after classes.

Jiameng joined a running club.

I still don't know what I like.

Suddenly, I felt like I was
a boring human being.

I'm kinda sad.

There are many interesting people around,

and that's what I pretend to
be, and then he's fooled.

The guitarist.

From the outset, I started noticing he
was 27 years old, and he didn't even die.

I got a new boyfriend.

He's an indie photographer.
Everything in the world is amazing.

I decided to go around with him.

I don't have the address to get a postcard,
I'll keep you posted.

Say hello to Jiameng.

I bought a cell phone. I
want to make a call to you.

But I can't give you my phone number.

I feel so bad.

I thought about whether I
should study abroad or not.

But I'm afraid again.

I'm afraid to lose.

Ansheng.

I'm keen to go out into the world.
I think I've been following you.

If you go far away,

I don't want to go anywhere.

I think about it often.

You look like you're floating around.

How can anyone else be different from others?
Come on, there's no answer.

I'm kinda sad.

- I was right in that story.
- Take this.

Most guys are really hard to bear.

So I decided not to take it anymore.

Give my regards to Jiameng.

Where are you now?

There's nothing new here.

My parents urged me to make a plan.

Married at 26.

By 27, I should have a baby, and
I'm supposed to buy a house at 30.

Where am I now? Take a guess.

It's a luxurious cruise ship.

I came to see your favorite ocean.

I think boats and bars are very similar.
All those people passing by.

I woke up this morning,

Suddenly, I'm here and I realised
that Jinjiang was 720 km away.

I felt sad all of a sudden.

You've got to get along well.

- Say hello to Jiameng.
- Are you going away?

My life has become monotonous.

It seems so predictable.

I went to the bank here for an interview.

Fortunately, he liked me.

Jiameng! I passed.

We came ashore. However deep the sea may be,

I can't spend my whole life
on the boundless ocean

I've been doing side jobs like.
this, but not for long enough.

I spent all the money I earned on the boat,

I've been very poor lately.

Wherever in the world, I don't
know if you're feeling bored

I'm getting closer and closer to 27.

Say hello to Jiameng.

It's been 4 years, Ansheng.

Have you thought about the future?

I can't wander around forever.

Qiyue, I'm older now.

It doesn't hurt me to blend in
with people I don't know.

But you're still there. I'm glad to know
that there's always a place to write to.

Give my regards to Jiameng.

Didn't you finish the conversation?

I'll get married two years after graduation.
Did you have a baby and buy a house?

We're still young.

Don't you want to go out and
try to challenge yourself?

He wants to go to Beijing after graduating.

We had a big fight.

I didn't catch you before.

I can't hold him right now.

Qiyue.

Remember what we heard on the
radio when we were kids?

Let's cross all the mountains and rivers.

I think I've come all that way.

I'm so tired now.

Can I go back home?

Tell me to come back.

In fact, how do you say good-bye?
Don't you get sick?

You just grow up.

You gotta get used to parting.

Qiyue.

Go on, get in the carriage.

It's all right.

Jiameng left eventually.

He came back in the spring
to Qiyue two years later.

They promised to marry.

Qiyue learned how to separate
ourselves from birth.

I also learned longing and waiting.

She didn't want to learn these things forever.

Auntie, it tastes just the same.

It's delicious.

No matter what happened to Qiyue,
There was no reason to lose weight.

Eat slowly.

Come on in.

Bath soap is there.
Put your clothes here.

- Come here.
- Why?

Take off your clothes and wash with me.

I can wash myself, I'm 26 now.

I don't care if you don't want to wash.

Just take 'em off and show me your boobs.

I'm surprised you're still doing this.

Who's surprised?

This is really good.

I love it.

Back together again.

Excuse me, I'd like a room.

Sign here. How many days are you staying?

Why?

Why are you staying here?

It's the right price.

It's okay. I've got money.

I'm going to the bathroom.

Except for your house,.

I'm most comfortable here.
It's the best bed.

I'm glad you like it.

That hard earned money was not in vain.

Are you sleepy?

Don't wipe your mouth with this.

This is dirt cheap. I'd use
this to clean the bathroom.

Do you think everything in
a luxury hotel is spotless?

Surely.

Well, keep on wiping, then.

Wait, someone's calling me.

(Sender: Jiameng)

I'm going to the bathroom.

Hello.

I'm in Shanghai now.
I have a company event.

- Two.
- This way, please.

Let me know when you're ready to order.

Thank you.

What?

Check this out.

Surprise!

Welcome to New Face.

Go!

Go for it!

Last 5 seconds...5 4 3 2 1

Let's get a drink.

I got it for free.

What are you doing?

I just made a deal with the boss here.

If I sell ten bottles,

I get one free.

And then you go to those idiots,

If you down it in 20 seconds,

Then they buy a round.

You know?

Men are actually pretty simple.

We all try to save face.

How do you drink so fast?

I practiced a lot. You can do it too.

One time,

I was really hungry.

I didn't have a penny in my pocket.

I remember then,

I borrowed four or five yuan
from one person and another,

so I could buy a bowl of noodles.

But by the end of the day,
I'd collected 80 yuan.

- Isn't that crazy?
- All right, enough.

Hello, ladies.

We've been drinking, so let's keep drinking.

Okay, drink up.

How much can you drink?

I have a boyfriend.

- We have girlfriends.
- Don't make fun of her.

This is my friend.
She's not going to play.

I'll drink it. I can drink.

Good for you.

Didn't you just say she couldn't play this?

Your friend drinks very well, too.

I'll tell you what, if I
knew you could drink so fast,

I wouldn't have had to drink with these guys.

Wait a minute.

Go back where you were,
I'll be over later.

- I'll wait.
- Don't worry about it. Take a break.

Let's order something to eat.

What do you want?

I'm gonna have lobster.

I think this salad will be fine.

Come on. What salad?

Let's eat lobster. Let me live a little.

Here's what you want.

Come on, let's get some lobster.

Excuse me.

Two lobsters, please.

- Hold on a second.
- Thank you.

Okay, fine.

So how do I make money again?
I need to think a minute.

Qiyue, you don't know anything.

If you're gonna do this to me,

If you have no skill to eat and drink,

I would have starved to death by now.

Look at this, how well I've gotten along.

Meanwhile ...

Is this how you've survived all these years?

You're gonna have to have a drink with him.

He made friends.

Don't you think it's cheap?

Every day I have the sweetness and bitterness
of life. I'm just enjoying myself.

You don't know that, you lived on campus every day.

You don't understand.

Do you think I've lived easier than you?

No, everyone's life is hard.

So what I'm saying is, because
you paid such a fine hotel bill,

I'll pay for the food.

I've got money.

You don't need to calculate it.

Have we ever questioned it before?

What was yours, what was mine?

Over the past few years

didn't you come up with enough?

Is that right?

If I really cared
,

in every postcard I sent
over the past five years,

I wouldn't send a boyfriend regards

I really wish I had handled it.

You'd never have gone around with this before.

Look at this.

You've been saying you're right about everything.

Look what you're doing now.

Let me ask you something. When I
said I was going to find him,

Did you really mind?

Qiyue.

What kind of person are you?
Maybe you don't know Jiameng.

But don't you think I don't know that?

Don't cry.

Well, boo hoo.

Qiyue and Ansheng

parted in Shanghai and lost contact.

Ansheng didn't send any more postcards.

Two years later

The person who did meet Ansheng
again was Jiameng.

They had parted when
they were 18 years old.

It was seven years already.

What kind of business does Mr Wang do?

Cosmetics

- The beauty industry makes money.
- Its not like I'm selling a building like this.

It's hard to compare.

Still, the beauty industry is
looking forward to having you.

Because I think I have an office in Beijing.

One more thing.

We had a special reception in Hong Kong

The feng shui here is perfect for businessmen like you.

Sort of. People living in the world

Before the age of 25,

life is unsteady.

It's time to settle down.

I need to earn some money.

Waitress.

May I change this, please.

Still careful.

How've you been doing?

Are you asking about me? Or Qiyue?

Does it matter?

I'm asking about both of you.

Qiyue is fine.

Transferred from customer services
to a corporate loan department.

I went to see you last weekend.

Does she come to Beijing to see you?

I don't like to leave home.

I've always got to go back.

It's not that she doesn't like to leave the house.

She's just gonna come back whenever.
She wants you to stay together.

What do you mean?

It's not that big a deal.

I gotta go now.

My boyfriend is supposed to pick me up.

I think about the the time when
I was living in the basement.

Originally, I wanted to make money
and travel around the world.

Now I'm lucky. I met him.

He bought me a house.

He's divorcing his ex-wife.

I'm supposed to go to Canada with him.

Are you sure you're okay?

Don't ask me philosophical questions.

You'll get married soon.

Next spring

I don't think I can see you then.
I'll be in Canada.

I'll celebrate it in advance.
I'll have a good cup of tea.

Let go! Let go!

Wait!

Let go!

(Qiyue: Jiameng, my cell phone
broke. We can video chat.)

(Jiameng: I'm working overtime now.)

(Jiameng : Good man, good luck.)
(Qiyue: You work, I'll just watch.)

I left my cell phone at work yesterday.

I saw a message that your
cell phone wasnt working.

Is it fixed now?

I just fixed it.

Let me tell you something interesting.

Last night, you appeared in my dream.

In my dream, you told me

You'd get married soon, but didn't want to get married.

You'd have to spend every day
and night with one woman

I think it's a loss.

Nonsense.

Don't think about it.

You're just kidding.

Why would you do that?

Qiyue.

I know too.

You're good to me. I trust you.

Actually, I have something to say to you -

I have a customer.

Good-bye, bye. Bye bye. LET'S GO

Come on.

- Are you okay?
- It's okay.

I'm sorry.

Open the door.

Why did I say such a mean thing to you last time?

I didn't mean it.

I thought you'd never see me again.

I've got this.

A month ago.

My boyfriend died suddenly.

His wife suddenly showed up

She drove me out and kept my luggage.

I was able to live here because of Jiameng.

It's what you told me, Qiyue.

Everything your Mum said was right.

I guess I'm fated.

Come on, Qiyue, rescue me.

It's painful.

Save me.

You've got troubles?

I'm more troubled.

Who'll save me?

Ever since you first saw me, you
wanted to douse me with water?

- Wouldn't it feel cooler if I ripped my clothes off?
- Let go!

What do you mean by that?

What do you mean?

Didn't you always want to throw water on me?

Why pretend you don't? Are
you afraid Jiameng will go?

The door's locked now, he can't come in.

I'm exhausted because of you.

You're having trouble with me?

Don't pretend you don't.

What's this?

You wear one now? You said you wanted to be free.

How come you've changed so suddenly?

This is because of Jiameng, isn't it?

Ansheng, I thought you were wrong.

Jiameng doesn't like this.

Do you want to know what he likes?

He likes this.

He loves this.

Oh my god! He loves it!

Do you think you know Jiameng?

Do you think he loves you?

I've had too much to drink today.

Knock it off!

Do you think they all loved you?

Except for me, nobody loves you.

Nobody loves you!

Take Jiameng.

If it's you and Jiameng,if it
comes down to choosing one,

I will definitely choose you.

Don't fool yourself, huh?

I've always given in to you.

You made concessions?

Do you have the right to make concessions?

Who could be friends
with you besides me?

If I hadn't brought you home,

would there have been anyone else
who could take care of you?

Everything you've got is everything I've got.

You take what's mine?

Can you do that?

What happened to us?

You made me like this.

You do it.

I can't.

I have too much work to prepare to get married.

I'll go first.

Wait a minute. We need to talk.

I've never been to Beijing.

It's not that I didn't want
to travel far away by train.

It's just that I waited for you to come back.

I could only believe in you if you came back.

You love me.

It's who you chose.

I'll wait a month.

Let's get married when we come home.

What do you think about when you run?

When I'm running, I feel calm.

Maybe you don't think about anything.

So how long have you been running?

It's been a couple of years.

I started when I got to know you
when you were 18 years old.

I mean, you can't run for your entire life.

Eventually, you're gonna stop.

We should've stopped earlier.

Ansheng.

We probably won't meet again, right?

I'm going.

You can have this.

See you again.

Don't ask me to see you again.

Because if you say so, I'll see you again.

Let's meet again.

I rented a house.

It's not big enough. It's just
right for me to live in.

I'm afraid I'm gonna lose my key.

Can I leave it with you?

The storage fee is expensive here.

How much are you going to leave behind?

All I've been saving for two years is here.

I'd like to leave it with you.

I wondered if you lack sincerity.

Then I'll take it.

If it's not enough, you can add to it.

Have some fruit.

Eat some fruit.

- Thank you.
- Congratulations.

Thanks guys!

- Are you ready?
- We're done.

Should I do this?

Here we go! Did you hide your shoes?

I hid them.

Come on. Come on!

- What's so urgent?
- Take out the envelope first.

Where the hell is the envelope?
Open the door! Come on!

Tell her to sing a song.

- Something's wrong! Get the door open.
- Just tell him to come in.

Big trouble. I can't find Jiameng.

I mean, he's really gone.

I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find him.

The groom ran away on the day of the wedding.

In a small town, rumours spread like wildfire.
Qiyue stopped working at the bank.

Finally, I left my hometown.

A bird that had been reared
in the nest suddenly soared.

But I didn't know where to go.

The life that my mum and dad wanted,

is completely gone now.

I'm sorry.

Just because you hit a bit of a curve
doesn't necessarily mean you're unhappy.

It's just a little hard.

But the truth is,

no matter what route a girl chooses,
she can be happy.

I know.

I just hope my daughter can be exceptional.

The first place for Qiyue

was an old inn where Ansheng used to stay.

She lay in a small bed

I imagined how life was after 18.

Ansheng had left for herself.

However, in that life

she left nothing behind her.

The steady lifestyle that Qiyue
had always believed in

was drifting away from her like land at sea.

She was actually living this transient life.

Sometimes she couldn't stop thinking about it.

Jiameng and Ansheng together.

Ansheng always wanted a family.

They would be very happy.

In Qiyue, I wanted to see a little bit of my parents.

I missed Jiameng.

The person I missed most was Ansheng.

Are you here?

Shrimp? How about today?

Today we smoked it.

- Hi.
- This is my boyfriend.

You two go and sit. It's
gonna be ready soon.

Talk to me.

We're thinking of getting married.

Soup's up.

I heard you were coming, Qiyue, so
I've added a few more dishes.

It's just something that Ansheng likes.

- Have a taste.
- All right.

- Give me a bowl.
- Try it.

If you weren't doing that ...

Wouldn't you feel empty?

I thought you and Jiameng were already married.

I thought he'd been looking for you in Beijing.

Actually ...

You look good wth your boyfriend.

But you're so 'nice'

I feel like I'm gonna get tired of you.

Qiyue ..

Don't go.

Ansheng.

Come with me.

Don't go.

I never looked back on that day with Qiyue.

I'm afraid I won't be able to stand on my own terms.

And I'm afraid that Ansheng is gonna be following me.

I knew her well.

From that moment on, I decided to
live a completely different life.

Ansheng had become stable

Qiyue was transformed in the wilderness.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Are you Jiameng?

- Who are you?
- I'm Li Ansheng's daughter.

Come to the entrance of Tianshan
Elementary School tomorrow.

I want to ask you something really important.

One, two, three, four.

It's on me.

Don't treat me as a child.

I asked you to meet me, so I pay for it.

Excuse me, I'd like a strawberry cheese cup

and a cup of coffee, please.

Just a moment.

Thank you.

Are you my dad?

Why are you asking me that?

Look at this.

It's on every postcard, it
says 'Say hello to Jiameng'.

This shows that Mum liked you.

Did your mum tell you about your dad?

Well, I guess it's been a long time
since I got to know her well enough.

Look, I need you to see if my dad's
story is written here.

I'm just first grade, so I
can't read all these characters.

I've seen this.

This is mum's writing.

I brought it here in secret.

Isn't this written by Qiyue?

Qiyue is my mother's writing name.

I saw what you wrote to her.

Get up!

Tongtong.

You go up first, okay?

She says that you wrote this novel.

Is she my child?

Yes.

You and Qiyue.

The novel was fake.

Where's Qiyue?

You're not married, are you?
Where is he?

I ran away on the wedding day.

I'll come and see you.

I ordered him to go.

Don't come to the wedding tomorrow.

I won't love a guy who doesn't love me
I can't live a whole life.

You shouldn't come to the wedding.

'Cause I'm gonna leave you fair and square.

Won't you feel empty if you don't do it?

I'm used to it.

This isn't true. Maybe it's been
a long time since we made it.

Look at what you've made of this.

I knew from that point on.

That you're gonna give us a name

But I still let you leave.

That was because I wanted to leave.

We're both good at pretending.

But you don't pretend to be anything like that.

You know, a really smart person

would never let others know you're smart.

You were so stupid.

Every day, I grab this, and take that
and can't feel myself anymore.

Do you hate me?

I did.

I hated you too.

Maybe

It must have begun that night.

I didn't even know myself.

But why did you come to find me?

After I knew I was pregnant,

You were the one I wanted to know first.

Another day and the baby grows older,

What matters?

Doesn't matter what matters.
It's getting clearer and clearer.

Ansheng.

You're my best friend.

I hated you.

But you're all I have.

Then why did you come here now?

Come here and lie down.

Qiyue.

Aren't you scared?

A little

Doctor, what's happened to Qiyue?

Both mother and daughter are fine. They're healthy.

Big eyes.

Big nose. Big mouth

And big boobs.

I'm not getting married.
Will we both grow up together?

You're gonna be a good Mum,
leaves me to be the bad mother.

Every day I decorate myself with makeup,

Tells me how many men I'm dealing with.

You're just a good student.

teaching me to get good grades.

Even if you keep growing up,

I'm gonna have to be a bad mother.

How do you like adulthood?

How do you pretend to be so good?

That's what I do best.

Excuse me, did you see the woman in 517?

- I haven't seen her.
- The baby's still there, can you take care of it?

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

Hello.

Don't be regretful.

What are you doing? Come back right now.

Didn't we agree

that we would switch lives.

I can't believe that.

Why don't you say good-bye to me personally?

I'm scared.

I'm afraid you're gonna make
our breakup so sad.

Don't worry about it.

It's just a baby.

You can go wherever you want,

for as long as you want.

I want to live free.

Just like you.

Did Qiyue just disappear?

Didn't you hear anything after that?

Can I come to see you again later?

- What happened to the patient?
- She's bleeding seriously. She's in surgery.

I'm terribly sorry. Her bleeding was too severe.

Her vital signs, heartbeat and
respiration, have terminated.

We tried our best, but ...
your family needs to prepare.

This is a notification of death.

If you don't see any problems, please sign it.

Rest in peace?

It sounds like she was an old lady.

Lin Qiyue.

She was 27.

I don't want to sign anything like this.

Dead, gone.

Who's your family?

(Epilogue: 27 Years Old, On The Road.)

Don't go, Qiyue.

I knew Qiyue well.

From that moment on,

I decided to live a completely different life

She had no idea where she would go next

How many more miles

I just thought that I wanted
to walk all the way freely.

In every place where we arrived,

I wrote down what I wanted to tell my aunt.

This time, she began to live a life like a novel.

Everything after 13 years, I decided
to write as a novel.

The story begins like this.

I knew about the world that she roamed.

One day when she looked back,

the person who stood on her own shadow
shadow must be alongside her.

It will be a happy life.

The End
(Author: Qiyue)
