[Episode 36]

Something happened before, so I'm sorry that I stood you up.

Why are you being so courteous?

What kind of relationship do we have?

Also, we don't have to say too much as we have a mutual understanding.

That's right! No matter how much we understand each other, we should still be cautious when we prepare.

Oh right! Where is Xiaowo?

- How is her learning with Professor Wo Gerui? - It's quite good.

He gave her a vacation and she just came back.

Really? That's great! That means

the day you two perform together will arrive soon.

That's right! I guess so.

What's wrong? You look forced.

No, no, no. Oh right! we're tight on time.

Let's discuss this.

Here!

- Goodbye. - Take care!

[Set Meal of Team RS going to the concert hall]

Uncle Qin. Uncle Qin?

Qingshang!

Don't worry! Team RS will definitely get together again.

Good. Good!

What you want to do will always succeed.

- I will be your strong support. - With those words, I'm at ease.

- You're looking for Qin Fen? - That's right.

- He's upstairs now. I'll help call him down for you. - Don't!

Uncle, you don't know that he keeps avoiding me these past few days.

If you yell, then you will alert him and he'll run away.

I will go upstairs and look for him myself.

What are you doing? I only proposed!

Do you have to be this scared?

- Open the door! - I'm not opening it.

Okay, then stay in there.

Don't eat, drink water, or go to the bathroom.

I'm waiting right here today.

You bought the face masks.

Are you preparing to give them to me?

Speaking of it, this is like our witness of love.

This is the first present you gave me.

Then I was bewildered and fell in love with you,

a repeating childish Junior Brother.

I've already spoken for half a day. Hurry and open the door!

I said I'm not opening, then I'm not opening the door.

What's wrong with you? I know you like me.

I also understand that you aren't an irresponsible man.

Why are you scared like this?

Are you afraid that if we are together then more flaws will be exposed,

or are you afraid of marriage life?

- I'm not afraid! - Then what's wrong?

Why would you want to marry me when I'm at rock bottom?

I want to get married

because I think our relationship can be developed even further.

I don't know why you don't want to get married.

The day I said I wanted to get married, those words did slip out without me thinking too much,

but these past few days, I've thought about it carefully,

and I think what I did is right.

I think when dating, you should look for

a person who gives you excitement.

For marriage, you should look for

the person that you can see through each other and still want to be together.

You gave me these two feelings at the same time and I confirmed that I want to live with you.

I'm certain that I like you.

I already said what needs to be said.

Let me tell you once again. I'm proposing butI'm not forcing you to get married.

The decision to accept or reject it is in your hands.

Accept it or reject it! Just give me a response.

Then...

I'm leaving!

Qingshang, Qingshang!

There's something that must be done by a man.

Although you were bewildered and fell in love with me.

Even though we were bewildered and got together.

Can we be bewildered and be together forever?

Your parallelism there was pretty good.

Don't interrupt my emotions!

Qingshang, are you willing—

I will marry you.

[Let's Rock Meeting Point]

Come on!

Cheers!

Fang Xiaowo, you're considered a pianist right now.

I feel like this time when you came back, you haven't changed a bit.

Don't you think you're superior to us? This is called having the original intention, do you understand?

Oh right! Have you met Senior Brother after coming back this time?

Of course! I met him once I came back.

If it wasn't because of him, my lessons wouldn't be over that quickly.

- I missed it here when I was in Paris. - My goodness.

That's enough!

Oh, right! Did you see Song Ran in Paris?

Song Ran seems to be coming back to Shanghai for a recital.

- Song Ran is coming to Shanghai for a recital? - That's right!

When her mom came last time, I thought her mom didn't let her come.

Let's go watch Song Ran's recital during that time, okay?

Seeing Li Zhenyan, she will definitely be happy.

Why are we asking Senior Brother?

Isn't Senior Brother going to be with her that day?

What are you doing?

Senior Brother?

What happened with your senior brother?

You didn't know that Senior Brother is going to help Song Ran perform?

- Why are you kicking me? - Is your heart bigger than your brain?

He didn't tell me.

Perhaps he forgot.

Come on! Let's drink, Xiaowo.

- Congrats. - Okay.

Congrats, Xiaowo.

- I— - I—

You say it first.

I have something to ask you.

How come you always walk so fast?

I'm always behind you watching your back.

I always wanted to catch up to you,

but it always seems like there's a distance between us.

It's a distance that I can't get through.

- Fang Xiaowo. - Look!

We're already so close right now,

why is there still a big crack between us?

There's no crack right now, isn't it?

Xiaowo, after meeting you,

I have become more indecisive.

Because I care about you so I hesitate again and again.

It was my fault for hiding this recital from you,

but performing with Song Ran,

it's a work responsibility that I have to do as an adult.

I hope you can understand.

I want to tell you that we have no cracks between us,

because you're the closest person to me.

What is your dream?

My dream?

I told you last time

that I want to go to kindergarten and teach the kids to play the piano.

I want to be a kindergarten teacher, and then let them

grow up with beautiful music when they are young.

Then be together with Li Zhenyan everyday!

Always be together with Li Zhenyan?

It won't be done.

Look at them! They work hard on this road every day.

As for you,

you can't ensure that you won't fall behind them.

Li Zhenyan just got on a true stage

and he will go even further, but what about you?

If it keeps going on like this, then one day,

you won't be able to reach him.

[Fang Xiaowo's Nest]

I hope that when I stand on the stage next time, it will be with you.

Can I?

[Fang Xiaowo's Nest]

Li Zhenyan!

When are we leaving?

I'm not leaving.

I will keep you company.

- Li Zhenyan, where are you? - I'm sorry.

La citrouille: pumpkin.

La chou: cabbage. Piano: piano.

According to the study plan, I checked them off one by one.

- Xiaowo, I... - I know that "amour" is foolish,

but this "amour" is working hard to learn.

Can you not leave me behind?

Brother Zhenyan, how come you really left?

- We still have the encore to perform. - Encore?

They're waiting for us.

- Xiao Ran, I think today— - We can. Let's go, hurry!

Stop overthinking. Let's go!

Why is it this song? Why is it the same song?

Li Zhenyan, I have a song right now that I really like.

- I must play this song with you. - Okay, what song is it?

I can't tell you. If I do, then it wouldn't come true.

You're not telling me what song it is, then how will I know

when I collaborate with you, so which song it is?

Okay, I'll tell you! It's Schumann's Piano Concerto in A Minor.

- Why is it this one? - Because I heard someone's recital of it,

and I fell in love with it right away.

Since the time we played the Mozart piano duet together,

this is the first song that made me feel moved.

Do you still remember that I told you not to give up halfway?

I remember, so I won't this time.

I will definitely play this song well.

So, will it be the same even if I'm not there?

What do you mean?

Are you regretting?

Are you leaving?

Xiaowo, this piece, Schumann's A Minor Concerto,

has all the words that I want to tell you.

Do you know

that before I met you, I was arrogant and indifferent,

a performer who only focused on techniques.

Ever since you entered into my life,

everything changed.

There were accidents and surprises everywhere.

You can activate my passion every time I play with you.

Gradually, in my life, you became

the light that I could not lose.

You melted my coldness,

healed my pain,

and you made me have a deeper understanding of music.

Perhaps, when I first heard the sound of your piano,

I already couldn't leave you.

Xiaowo, do you hear me?

Xiaowo, I'm sorry.

My hesitation harmed you.

Xiaowo,

it's so cold, so why didn't you go inside the house but sat here?

You performed well today.

Song Ran, too.

Thank you.

Actually, I collaborated with her today...

it's just because the performance needed it.

I originally wanted to tell you before, but I...

Do you really like me?

Will we be together forever?

I like you.

We will always be together forever.

What are you daydreaming about? Time to eat!

I've arranged to meet with Gu Sheng later, to talk about recruiting new members for the orchestra.

I will get going first.

Li Zhenyan, I kept forgetting to ask you.

Were you happy when you performed yesterday?

I was happy but I would be happier if I can perform with you in the future.

Eat! I'll get going.

- Bye-bye! - Bye-bye.

Xiaowo, it's me! How did you know I came back?

Did you come to welcome me?

Xiaowowo?

What's wrong with you?

Did Li Zhenyan bully you again?

Li Zhenyan!

You... what's wrong with you?

Do you want a lollipop?

Don't cry!

What's wrong?

Go ahead, cry it out. Cry!

So strange!

This child will always turn in her homework on time.

Why can't I contact her today?

Could it be that something happened?

What do you think about this person?

Not bad!

Some people will only fight once they've come to grief.

What do you mean?

I understand now.

Because Li Zhenyan and Song Ran

performed the song that you wanted to collaborate with Li Zhenyan...

So you're...

Not like that!

There's something more precious that was taken from me.

To me,

it's very special and valuable.

Do you hate Song Ran?

Then do you truly think that performance was amazing?

Yes, every person who loves music

will feel their blood rushing when hearing that amazing performance.

And every person who studies music hopes that one day,

she will be more amazing than those on the stage, right?

Xiaowo, do you want to try it yourself for once?

Yes!

Our Xiaowo, when she was at Mario Paci Conservatory of Music,

other people said we were the worst

and could only go to the orchestra to be a lucky charm.

However, after that, we went to Paris! What place is Paris?

A brilliant capital of classical music. Right?

What happens at the end?

Is she still the worst student?

Can she only be a lucky charm?

What's wrong with being the worst student? Who cares?

I'm not the worst student!

I used all my efforts to learn during this time!

Even though I hate studying,

I still endured it.

I know that my past self had a lot of problems,

but I faced them all and changed them all.

In the end, I'm still the same.

Song Ran,

I know it's not easy for her.

It's not easy for everyone who learns the piano, but

she didn't give up learning the piano since she was young.

It's the same with Li Zhenyan.

Both of them are amazing.

I know...

this is the truth that I can't surpass them, no matter how hard I work.

I really do know

Li Zhenyan and Song Ran

are people who are born to be on stage.

I'm too far from it.

Xiaowo.

Come! Play the piano for me once more.

I haven't heard you playing piano in a long time.

I'm afraid.

Afraid of what?

If you really long for the stage,

then you have to invest all your passion into it.

Only when you truly perform on stage, then you'll know

how dazzling your light is.

Xiaowo,

only if you crash and face it,

will you be happier than you think.

Trust me!

You won't regret.

Get rid of all those distracting thoughts and all the unhappiness.

Use your heart

to perform the song you want on stage

and let the entire world hear it.

I already finished what you told me to do.

Oh, right! The preparations for the orchestra, you must do it well.

Don't drop the ball!

Is that so? Thank you so much.

I will prepare it well.

Goodbye.

Auntie, what did I say? I knew that your investment will be paid back.

Bei Shaofen just called me to let me know that she's already made some contacts for paid commercial performances.

Whether it's a horse or a donkey, you have to ride it to know.

I have my eyes, I will see it for myself.

Manage your time or we'll have to pull an all-nighter today.

Hello, Qingshang.

Really? That's great!

Okay, let me take care of things here. Don't worry!

I will wait for your news. Bye-bye.

Cousin!

Cousin, where is Senior Brother?

He went to discuss recruiting new members and just told me on the phone.

- There's some good news that I have to tell you. - What is it?

Bei Shaofen has already sent out some advertisements for us.

There are commercial performances for us.

- Senior Brother is so amazing but we have to recruit new members first. - That's right!

- I bought breakfast. - Thank you! Put it here and I'll eat it later.

Go and make twenty copies of these music sheets.

Lin Qingshang, why did you block me?

Lin Qingshang, why on earth did you block me?

Did you hear me, Lin Qingshang?

Why did you block me?

Why are you like this?

It was you who proposed to me.

How can you go back on your words?

Do you hear me talking?

What? Do you not want me now?

Do you think that I'm too annoying?

Do you know people need to have integrity?

- What's going on? - Qin Fen asked for it himself.

He left a comment on every post of my cousin.

"Hahaha, Qingshang proposed to me."

My cousin thought he was too annoying, so she blocked him.

I have no time to talk to you about this.

So what?

- Weren't you the one who proposed to me? - That's right!

Then what do we do?

I'm going back on it!

Who let you go back on it?

Divorce! Divorce! Divorce! Divor—

If you say you're going to back out, then just in time,

I plan to officially propose to you, anyway.

Reject it! Reject it!

Cousin, reject it! Reject him!

Lin Qingshang, do you know that I like you the most?

I like that every time you scold me,

your face turns scarlet-red and your mouth pouts.

Even though there are times when I screw up,

with you here, I feel at ease.

Even though I don't have much money or achievements right now,

as long as you're here,

I feel like I have hope.

Even though I didn't prepare anything today,

I've already prepared to live my whole life with you.

Lin Qingshang,

are you willing to marry me?

I... officially decided

from now on,

you are my man! Get up!

That... let's practice.

I feel bad! I really feel bad!

I was wondering why you asked me to come over.

It's another absurd and unreliable matter.

Say, what do you want to do? You're not thinking about your illness!

Now, you're taking great pains over a girl!

Do you want me or you to die early?

Master Fei, what illness did you get?

Xiaowo,

I won't hide it from you.

I am indeed sick.

And, it's a rare disease.

They call it what? Reverse growth.

Don't worry! Sister Elise always exaggerates when she talks.

I'm fine now, am I not?

- Is it tasty? - Then you have take care of yourself.

Don't worry. Eat!

What on earth do you want to do?

Do you want the whole world to know? I already heard Fang Xiaowo playing the piano.

If she can't reach this level, I wouldn't have that idea.

However, you need to know! This means she'll make her debut performance on your tour.

- What's wrong? - What to do if she doesn't perform well?

What will the media think? They can make random speculations.

Then won't your reputation be ruined?

My goodness, I don't care!

Also, her teacher doesn't agree to the recital.

I'm not answering!

- I'm Fei She'er. - Old Fei, let me tell you!

Xiaowo is not suitable to debut through your recital.

She will be under a lot of pressure.

Yazhe, why aren't you confident toward your own student?

Moreover, okay you know.

Well, let her directly talk to you, okay?

Xiaowo, this is your teacher.

Hello, teacher.

My wish will come true with this recital,

so I hope you can support me.

However, if you don't support me,

I will still join.

Hurry and eat!

Old Fei, I think it's not time yet.

Yazhe,

you should be fully confident in your student.

This is the most important time for Xiaowo's breaking out.

But...

Listen to me!

When I first saw this child,

I really admired her talent.

Also, I especially admired her purity.

Of course, I know that if she wants to grow,

she still has a long way to go.

So when I left Mario Paci Conservatory of Music last time, I gave her some hints

to learn how to grow up herself.

When I met her again this time,

I realized that she's already a very mature pianist.

It's time for her to burst into bloom.

But her emotions are very bad right now.

Don't you think this could backfire?

Old Li,

let me tell you! I was against your strict teaching during that time, wasn't I?

I just think it's too extreme.

To these students, being too strict or over-protective is not good.

We should give them love,

and let them truly feel

sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy in life.

Okay, okay. Old Fei, I will listen to you.

We're already so close right now,

why is there still a big crack between us?

- What do you think? - It's all right.

I just think it's lacking a bit of passion when he's playing.

Why do you always walk so fast?

I'm always behind you watching your back.

I always wanted to catch up to you,

but it always seems like there's a distance between us.

It's a distance that I can't get through.

- Hello, Elise. - I remember that Fang Xiaowo is your girlfriend.

Her and Fei She'er are about to make a lot of trouble.

Are you going to side with them?

Fei She'er came back?

Also, Fei She'er plans to collaborate with Fang Xiaowo during his recital,

but if there's any mistake, then it will be a big problem!

Fang Xiaowo performing? Impossible, she didn't tell me.

There's nothing to be imppossible. The news is already out.

This lunatic can do anything.

I was already speechless when he accepted you as his own disciple.

Now, he wants to be a springboard for others.

Okay, I get it.
