True Colours

Episode 9

No matter where it is...

I don't assume
you'll be my side - Goodbye, Ni-chome

Password.
"The Sky King covers the ground tiger."

"Jia Jia is tigress."

-How dare you shut me outside.
-Be gentle.

-Enough.
-Dare you do that again.

My bad, my bad

What're you doing? Okay, okay.

-Will you do that again?
-No, no.

Xiao Hui?

What brought you here?

You said to show me something,
so I came after shopping.

Xiao Hui, I happen to be cooking today.

Have a taste of my cooking.

It'd be a trouble for you.

No, you're important to Meng Yu.

Therefore, to me too.

We can be friends.

We are friends.

Well, let's forget the cooking...

and eat outside.

Should I not have come this early?

Not at all.

No, don't be stupid.

Meng Yu must have
wanted you to stay longer.

Come on, let's eat outside.

I don't think I'm going.

I don't want to emit light around you.

You have to eat too.

I can just cook chives dumpling.

Da Zhi has been craving for it.

And the tadpoles,
I need to find a place for them.

I'm busy. You guys get going.

Let's go then.

This is the richest
neighbourhood near the campus.

See if you like it.

Why did you suddenly rent me a house?

Didn't you wish to move out from the dorm?

Did I say that?

You said it
when we were eating the other day.

How thoughtful.

I wasn't sure about your preference.

I just tried looking here.

It looks quiet and peaceful.

Sorry to trouble you.
Actually, it was just a whim back then.

I got it. Just take a look.

If you don't like it,
I'll find another one.

-Never mind, that's too troublesome.
-Don't stand on ceremony with me.

Here we are.

What a nice house.

I'll rent the house now if you like it.

You can move in anytime.

Let me know what else you need,

I'll have it ready soon.

It has two bedrooms.

I thought if your family visits Nanjing,
they can stay here too.

If you think it's unnecessary,

or you want it to be bigger,
we can find another one.

-This is fine.
-I'll pay the deposit then.

When you're in a relationship,
let her know how you feel.

Make your relationship
clear when it's time.

Don't keep it vague,
that makes you look stupid.

Xiao Hui.

Please make do with this for now.

When we're getting married,

and you wish to stay in Nanjing,

we'll buy a house here.

If you'd return to Beijing with me,

we'll return together.

Anywhere you're going,

we'll live there.

Hello.

Are you sleeping?

No, why?

My mum said to help me unpacking.

Your mum's coming? When?

I'll pick her up.

Tomorrow morning, by bus.

At which station and what time?

Are you the reincarnation of exploitative
landlord? Not letting me sleep on weekend.

Are you really awake?
Giving me money early in the morning.

Get a cleaner to clean up my house.

I've sent you the address.

The key.
Make sure it's done before 12.

Having a deal with Bill Gates?

Why the rush?

You drama king.
The dorm is too lousy...

so, you rented a nice house?

Winter bamboo shoots! Fresh winter shoots!

Who wants some fresh winter shoots?

Fresh winter bamboo shoots!

Mr. Winter Shoots.

Miss, have some winter shoots.

RMB 6 per catty.
Buy 10 catties and get 10 catties free.

Really?

Take a look.

-I'll have 20 catties.
-Okay.

The neighbourhood has
such a nice environment.

Nian, good choice.

As long as you like it.

The house is well-furnished.

The owner was transferred abroad
right after it's done.

It's a new house, then?

-Pretty new.
-Good.

Please come in.

You're back? I bought
your favourite winter bamboo shoots.

You can eat as many as you want.

Ma'am, I'm sorry.

The house has been cleaned,
except the living room.

This must be the cleaner, right?

Since you're here,

please clean the floor.

How do we enter if it's this dirty?

Ma'am, this is my sister, Lu Jia Jia.

She, Xiao Hui and I...

are all course mates.

-Jia Jia, this is Xiao Hui's mum.
-Hi, Ma'am.

These are the ingredients for staff meal.
It's sent to the wrong place.

-Jia Jia, make tea for Ma'am.
-Okay.

Ma'am, let's take a look...

-around the house.
-Sure.

Nice house.

You may leave now,
I'll handle things here.

Okay.

See, don't do needless things.

That's wrong.

Looks like you've reflected on yourself.

You're right.

Being extra is wrong.

But sincerity is better than hypocrisy.

You look tired, let me help.

Don't get it wrong.

I wasn't trying to take your money.

You see,
I know you better than the cleaners.

Mind you,
these are self-grown bamboo shoots.

Very fresh.

I just wanted to surprise you
with something new.

Surprise?
Hello, that was very shocking.

You didn't make things clear.

I was in a rush.

Fine, blame me for asking for your help.

Never mind, don't blame yourself.

I hate myself for being
your friend for so many years.

-Mum, do you not like the house?
-The house?

-No.
-I was thinking...

about how close Nian and Lu Jia Jia are.

Them? No way.

You're too naive and inexperienced.

There's no pure friendship
between a man and a woman.

If they always stick together,
something might happen.

Xiao Hui, if Nian's the one for you,

tell him to stay away from that girl...

as far as possible.

This is quite impossible.
They grew up together.

Their families know each other.

Jia Jia even helped
him built his business.

Quite capable for a petite girl.

She's just Meng Yu's accountant.

Accountant?

What is it?

Good. I wonder...

how much Nian loves you.

You have a way to test him?

If she doesn't do the account,

my idea may not be that useful.

What idea?

One's accountant is always
the person he believes strongly in.

We'll know for certain whether
Nian plans to marry you.

The store is quite spacious.

And the business is good.

Well, it'll be more crowded
during the weekend.

-Have a seat, Ma'am.
-Okay.

-Thanks.
-You're welcome.

Ma'am, Xiao Hui told me that...

you loved Longjing.

-Try this.
-Thank you.

I've packed one for you to bring home.

Nian, thanks a lot.

Stop bustling around.

Let Xiao Hui do this.

Nian, sit.

-I want to talk to you.
-Yes, Ma'am.

Who's doing the accounting for your shop?

Did you hire an accountant?

No, it's Jia Jia.

She's an accountant?
Aren't you in the same course?

Ma'am, since you bring this up,
is there something you want to say?

What a bright lad.

Indeed, I have a favour to ask.

Xiao Hui's aunt has a daughter
who graduated from an accounting school.

She's quite capable,

but is always having a hard time at work.

Working in her hometown
can't satisfy her.

So, she's hoping to get a job in a city.

But she's a lady.

Having her staying in a city alone...

makes Xiao Hui's aunt and uncle worry.

Meng Yu, can my cousin
be the accountant here?

Nian, that's what I'm thinking.

If Xiao Hui's cousin
works for someone from our family,

we won't have to worry.

Ma'am, you're right.

But you see.

Mine is just a small business.

We have low workload,
I don't need two accountants.

There's no need for two.
My cousin can do it alone.

I mean, accounting
is not Jia Jia's area of expertise.

My cousin is major in accounting.

-She even has a certificate.
-That's right.

Nian, this is what I'm thinking.

Letting Xiao Hui's cousin
handle the account...

is good for you too.

Accounting is error-prone.

When something goes wrong,

you're the one that'll be upset.

You're right.

Ma'am, I need to talk to Jia Jia first.

She's a shareholder, after all.

If that's the case, I got it.

When did Jia Jia become a shareholder?

You didn't tell me.

Hui Hui,

don't poke your nose
into others' business.

Nian is a smart lad.

He knows what he's doing.

Ma'am, it's okay.
Xiao Hui said that for my sake.

Excuse me, Nian.

I feel tired.

-I'll stop bothering you and go home.
-Okay.

Ma'am, the tea...

Never mind, forget it.

How's your mom?

-She's getting better after some rest.
-Go for a walk?

I don't have to remind
you why mum's here, do I?

I know.

She's not asking a lot.

My cousin is not an outsider,
rest assured.

I know, but Jia Jia
was there since the beginning.

I have to discuss with her.

Yes, Jia Jia is a shareholder now.

She has more say than me and my mum.

Xiao Hui, don't be angry.

I can recommend your cousin
to my brother's company.

He has over ten restaurants in Nanjing.

Her future will be
promising if taught by his wife.

Her talent would be wasted at my place.

You just couldn't trust
having my cousin in your shop.

It's cold.

Let's go back now.

Xiao Hui, I can explain.

Jia Jia was with me
since I started the shop.

She has suffered a lot.

Without her, my business
couldn't have made it this far.

We're like real siblings.

She'd be disappointed if I sacked her.

You're like real siblings?

Then isn't my cousin real?

But order matters.

Are you suggesting that
I'm being unreasonable and pushy?

Meng Yu,
I've never asked anything from you.

I never expect my first demand
would put you in such a dilemma.

That's not what I meant.
I'm not saying I won't help.

But letting her work
for me isn't quite right.

Please understand.

She's a fresh graduate.

Can we let her work in
a big company at ease?

Have you thought about me and my mum?

After my parents divorced,

it was my aunt and her family
that had been taking care of us.

My mum told them confidently
before coming here...

that this is a piece of cake
for someone as capable as you.

How should my mum face
my aunt and her family now?

Fine, you can forget about
my family from now on.

Did she contact you?

Of course I called her first.

You're not even by your mum-in-law's side.

Something's wrong.

None of your business.

Why are you hesitating?

If I were you,
I'd have kicked you out.

If you like her, keep her close to you.

Trust me.

Don't try to act like an adult.

I'm not acting.

I've wanted to quit since long time ago.

I didn't get
the scholarship last semester...

and was scolded by Ms. Zhang.
This is it.

I have to thank Xiao Hui
for the great help.

I'm going to quit anyway.

Hire anyone you like.

Jia Jia.

I'll give you shares.

I've taken what I deserved.

And you've been giving me the
deducted money through other means.

I'm stingy, but not greedy.

I don't take what's not mine.

You're an old hand here.

Even if this doesn't happen, I should give
you shares and pay quarterly dividends.

You should've told me earlier
so I can resign.

How unworthy of it.

I'm going to cook something
to celebrate my promotion.

Save some for me.

-This is good.
-Nice.

Cooking for you is exhausting.

I finally see a light
at the end of the tunnel.

You're not cooking anymore?

He's keeping a woman in a house now.

If I keep making garlic and chives dishes,

will he be able to get
the taste of Yangzhou cuisine?

Mum, since you're here already,
why don't you stay longer?

I've finished my task.

How can I stay here long?

That's too shameless.

Meng Yu doesn't mind.

Nian comes from a rich family,

he is capable and good-looking.

My daughter has made a good choice.

You mean, he passed?

How nervous you are.

A girl must protect herself well.

If you want to climb up high,
you must care about your reputation.

For the sake of your long-term happiness,

you have to cherish yourself.

Listen, observe for a little longer.

Lu Jia Jia seems to me...

like a snake in the grass.

I didn't expect her to be a shareholder.

Starting a business is a hard task.
Meng Yu values friendship a lot.

He was just rewarding her.

Didn't he dismiss Jia Jia as
the accountant after we told him to?

But he didn't give his shares
to the shopkeeper.

It's not about the money.

What bugs me is their friendship.

They're so much closer than I expected.

As if Jia Jia possesses any threat to me.

You saw it too.

Meng Yu treats her like a maid.

By that logic,

is the woman who
seduced your dad back then...

any better than me?

Listen, women who look more ordinary...

are the bigger threats.

Dad found novelty in
the newly-known woman.

Jia Jia and Meng Yu
are friends for a decade.

-There's just no chemistry between them.
-No chemistry?

What if she starts being tricky?

I'm telling you,
their decade-long friendship...

will cause a hundred
times more damages to you.

Even so, I'm not afraid.

Meng Yu won't listen to her.

Why can't you understand?

Will I harm you?

It's always wise to play safe.

Anyway, you need to be careful
about Nian and that lady.

I got it.

Meng Yu must only be close with me,

or he can't pass.

I've suffered this one before.

I can't let the same tragedy...

happen to my precious daughter.

Summer of year 2000

-Piggy Nian.
-What is it?

I realized something wrong.

What is?
Five Maltesers if you got it right.

Did you have frozen shoulder?

What did you learn in class?
What frozen shoulder?

No? Every time I was writing note,
you kept flinging your arm.

My eyes hurt from it.

Was it because of my flinging arm?
It was this.

A brightly polished new watch.

Then give me your old watch.

You just won't stop trying
to take advantage of me.

What are you showing off for otherwise?

-Is it shiny?
-Did you apply polish?

The radiance of love.

But not the product of love.

Congratulations, you're wearing
a couple watch like a mortal now.

You've got me and Xiao Hui wrong.

We're not that low.

Did she give it to you?

The five Maltesers are yours.

Are you here to disgust me?

I'm sharing my joy with you.

What a rare gift.
Do you still remember your name?

-Happiness.
-Mind your attitude.

You didn't know that
Xiao Hui searched all the shops...

in Xinjiekou to buy me the watch.

As if you saw it yourself.

Good taste, right?

This must be very costly.

It's not about money, but the love.

Thank God.

Your fairy has finally sprinkled
some dews from her cuff.

And I, the demon,
I'm leaving to cultivate.

I'll bring you the note later.

You keep it first.
I'm studying at your video shop later.

All you do is protecting Sun Xiao Hui,

like I'm going to do
something to your precious.

But whatever I did,
it's for your own good.

I'm telling you,
Sun Xiao Hui is very manipulative.

Someone like you
is not her match.

I say, stay away from her.

She looks cunning to you too?

I'm worried if Piggy Nian
got used by her unknowingly.

But you said
you'd be relieved if they're together.

Keep your words.

Yes, but I didn't know
Sun Xiao Hui would do this.

Lousy character.

By your logic,

everyone with bad personality
will have to stay single?

Are you choosing a wife?

I pity Nian Meng Yu.

Having to serve
his previous Sun Xiao Hui...

and you, his "mum" at the same time.

Me? I'm just a "mum".

That's the thing.

I mean,

although Sun Xiao Hui was being tricky,

she didn't mistreat Nian Meng Yu.

Nian Meng Yu will be
the one living with her,

not you.

You're not even Nian Meng Yu's family.

Do you plan to break them up?

You're right.

I'm not qualified or capable of that.

Your ongoing dispute with
Sun Xiao Hui will only end in two ways.

Either you leave, or she does.

But I'm telling you,

as long as Sun Xiao Hui
doesn't violate his principle,

you're more likely to leave.

That'd be awkward.

You and Nian Meng Yu are just friends.

You have your life and he has his.

But they're couple.

I know.

Well, if I, Xiao Hui or Sha Sha...

met a guy with bad personality,

won't you let us know?

Like I said, not liking me...

doesn't mean
they can't be nice to you, isn't it?

I'll keep my distance. Everyone
gets to live happily and peacefully.

But if they ever treat you girls badly,

I'll beat him up.

Okay, I got it.

From today onwards,
out of sight, out of mind.

I'll keep a faraway distance.

That's right.

Listen, as a friend,

you can at most have
your shoulder prepared.

In case they break up,
let him lean on you and comfort him.

Maybe without you as the "mum",

they can live happily
and get to walk down the aisle.

You make me sound
like an evil mother-in-law.

Fine.

From now on, I wish them...

happiness and be blessed with children.

You finally come to senses.

Jia Jia, where are you going?

I'm studying with my roommates in a cafe.

Aren't we studying together at my shop?

I've promised them.
I'll get going now.

What about your note?

Bring it to tomorrow's class.

Meng Yu.

-Let's study together.
-Okay.

I spent RMB 10 to get it
out of the capsule machine.

Save me face, don't be angry.

I'm not.

I did wrong.

I shouldn't have tried to change you.

I'll talk to you first in the future.

It was me, really.

I...

wasn't good at judging people and things.

Well, everybody experiences the painful
transition from ideality into reality.

You'll suddenly realize that
there's a difference...

between reality and ideality.
Then, you accept the fact.

Some accept it earlier, others...

a little late.

I might be the late one.

My first love in high school
was a school belle.

She was my secret crush for two years
before I confessed in freshman year.

Her personality is
quite like Sun Xiao Hui's.

I tried to give her
everything I had back then.

When we graduated,

she broke up with me.

Indeed, for a period of time,

I lost faith in love.

Do you mind that?

I...

I have no control over others.

I only mind my own world's business.

Don't you want to peep into
a bigger world occasionally?

What if the bigger world means World Cup?

China versus Brazil tomorrow,
streaming live in my lab.

What's the date today?

How could I...

forget something this big?

Which peanut flavour do you want?
It's on me.

How ungenerous.

Shouldn't you at least
buy a KFC's Family Bucket?

It's decided then, I'm going now.

Boss, why isn't Jia Jia here yet?

Try to call her.

-She's not coming.
-Not coming?

That's impossible.

We said to watch the soccer game
together and I'll buy her snack.

Wouldn't the snack go wasted?

We can watch it together
if she's not coming.

Have a seat.

Boss, now I remember.

Jia Jia told me to bring
the snack to her dorm.

I must've forgotten it.

I'll get going then.

Hello, Jia Jia, where are you?

Nice shot

Well played.

That's right!

Good.

Pass it now, now!

Pass it.

Pass the ball. Shoot!

Such a bad player.

There's still chance.

Get past him!

Our team is quite spirited.

Maybe they can score one goal.

Lull your nerves with some beer.

What's he doing?

The 3Rs are too awesome,
luckily he didn't score.

My heart is going to burst out.

Steady.

It's all right.

Advance.

To the center. Header.

-They should've used all four limbs.
-You're right.

What does center mean?

It means the offensive
team lofting the ball...

towards the opposing
team's penalty zone...

before he reaches their goal line
as he advances along the byline.

What about off-side?

-What?
-Off-side.

Off-side?

It means when the player of offensive team
passes the ball to a teammate before him,

the teammate is
in the opposing team's area...

with only the opposing
goal keeper in front of him.

That's off-side.

How complicated.

Not really,
watch more games and you'll know.

I don't think I'll get it my whole life.

It's okay, just enjoy the game.

What did you say corner kick is?

Corner kick? When the defending team...

has kicked the ball over the goal line,

the offensive player will
placekick from the corner flag post.

Corner flag post, placekick, goal line?

What are those?

Did I annoy you because I'm stupid?

No, Rivaldo just scored another goal.

Brazil scored another goal?

What a bad defeat.

No, thanks.

It was just three to zero.

There's another half.

Consider we win if we score one goal.

Yes, one single goal
can boost their confidence.

And for the coming game with Turkey,
we'll score two goals,

maybe we can have a tie.

But if the China team
can't score any goal,

his arm would be broken.

-Did I do that to you??
-It's okay.

Jia Jia, you're surrounded by evil people.

Such a manic habit,

but no one told her.

-You're annoying.
-Let's go.

All going in already?

Let me know when the second half starts.

-Actually...
-Did it start?

No, take your time.

I'm going to the toilet.

Da Zhi, where are you now?
Okay.

-What's the score now?
-Three to zero.

It's still three-nil.

What?

They can be
in the next game with one goal.

-You go and watch.
-You're not watching?

I'm going to the loo.

What took you so long?

The second half should've started.

Let's switch it back.

Never mind, the game isn't interesting.

-Let's watch this one.
-Okay.

Welcoming New Students of Year 2002

-Here you go.
-Thank you.

That's so heavy. What's it?

Pickles, from Liubiju.

I love it since I was a kid.

Ms. Zhang, I've got it.

No spilling, it was nicely wrapped.

Okay, I'm hanging up.

Hello, I've got the make-ups.

Whether I become prettier,
you'll know when you're back.

Did you miss me?

Don't worry, I've been waiting for you.

Okay.

Xiao Hui, baby, you miss me already?
