[Almost Lover]

[Episode 14]

Yunlan will surely be yours.

When that time comes, don't forget that I helped you out with the critical step.

Take care.

At Yunlan, I haven't been able to ask Director Lan out over the years.

But you did it easily.

All thanks to the invitation card.

When you said you wanted to look for another way out,

I thought it was impossible, but you pulled it off quickly.

It looks like you've grown a lot over the years.

I remember when I could still play soccer,

I was a defender.

I especially liked how it felt to take control of the whole field.

I couldn't play it anymore later on,

but in business competition,

I seem to have got that feeling again.

Quite good.

Brother,

just cut to the chase,

Let me follow up on Director Lan's order.

Is that okay?

Miss Chen, the bridesmaid hasn't come yet.

They want to finish by 9 o'clock, yet they won't come early.

Let's wait a little longer.

It's raining today, and traffic seems really bad.

I got it.

Today the city was unusually congested. The traffic index broke this year's record.

The whole city was shut down because of the concert. And it's raining now.

If you happen to be home at the moment, don't go out.

It's raining.

- Driver... - Hey!

How come you're here?

You were in such a deep sleep. You wouldn't even know if someone sells you off.

I asked why are you here?

The driver said the car broke down, so I came over. He's contacting someone for help.

Fei'er is still waiting for me.

I told her you can't go.

What did she say?

What could she say? I waited forever until you came back to Hupu.

You've given others all your time outside of training.

How sad of me to have seen you twice only.

I'm quite happy.

Want to go and eat something? I'll take you home to rest after that.

It's pouring.

I know where to go. Let's go!

Where are we going?

It's raining!

- Hurry up! - It's raining!

Xiaoran!

This is where you live?

The training department assigned the rooms out. I stay in the room over there with snacks inside.

I didn't go home the past few days since I was busy. I stay here. Fortunately, it's close to my training.

Don't get me wrong.

I just think that traffic is too terrible.

Since we can finally spend time together, let's not waste time.

So exhausting. Have you done your group assignment?

When we're being so sneaky, it's hard not to be misunderstood.

I just want to avoid gossips.

The card reader is getting old.

What?

Are you going to take a shower firstr?

I mean, you can't afford to catch a cold now, right?

Why do you look like a mess?

It's raining and the street outside has been congested for over an hour, so I got out of the car and walked back.

Fei'er

Sister Wang's anti-hangover tea is nowhere near as good as yours.

I followed every step, but–

Sister Wang, go back and rest. I'll take care of it.

I'll make the tea and prepare some fruit for you.

You know me the best.

Tomorrow I'll have the PR department arrange

follow shots of you doing charity work to build your image.

I made a lot of effort.

Now you...

don't look like a bride at Deju.

Okay, got it.

Then, I'll go and change first.

What were you doing last night?

Being your bridesmaid is tiring me out.

I fell asleep on the way.

Are you feeling energised

after a good rest?

Run faster! It's time to collect your presents, hurry!

Ok, you all go and play.

I don't think these photos are good enough.

- How about we take some photos of you teaching the children how to play the piano? - Okay.

Xiaoran, can you go and get some water for the photographer?

- He's been working very hard. - Ok

I'm tired just looking at him.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Children. Children, can we take a few photos?

Shall I teach you all how to play "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"?

I don't want to learn.

Do you want to try lowering your posture and meeting the children's eyes?

You are quite experienced.

Do you have a child too?

I'm friends with a 5 year old.

If he knows that you're thinking about him all the time,

he would be very happy.

Shangqi.

This is the person in-charge of my wedding and also my good friend, Xiao Shangqi.

I've heard of you.

- Hello. - Hello

I came to take a look since I was in the vicinity.

What is your relationship with her?

I'm her boyfriend.

That's not possible!

Concentrate.

One, two, three... Freeze!

Here. Look over here.

Why don't we play one more time?

I want to play with them.

One, two, three... Freeze!

You moved!

He Xiaoran? It's really you!

Xiaodiao?

It's been so long since we met after graduating university.

How come you're here?

Are you feeling better now?

- Hurry along. - I'm feeling fine.

Xiao Shangqi?

You both...

Yes.

Oh my god. You both are finally together.

That means... The rumours in the group chat are all false?

The group chat? What rumour?

They said that you had depression

and you went overseas with your parents, to receive therapy.

They also said that Xiao Shangqi went abroad with Chen Fei'er

- so you committed suicide out of heartbreak. - What?

They were making things up like that?

- Is it the class group chat? - Yes.

- Invite me into the group. - Sure.

Alright.

You shouldn't bother arguing with these people.

You were misunderstood because of me.

I will never let anyone spread rumours about you.

Fei'er?

After so many years, you all are still so close.

Let me add you to the group chat too. Here!

Let's do it next time.

I left my phone charging in the car.

Look, they are wishing us happiness.

You both are finally together.

So happy!

Congratulations!

I have to say, I knew you both would be together.

Shangqi, do you have any hotel recommendations for my honeymoon?

The pillows at the previous hotel wasn't very comfortable.

Mingxuan is more picky when it comes to hotels.

You can just go along with where he decides to stay.

Coming, coming!

Fried seafood,

grilled fish maw,

- Thank you. - Enjoy the food.

- Thank you. - Alright.

Let me try this first.

Oh Fei'er, I hired an assistant for you.

You can ask her if you need anything.

Xiaoran actually came to Hupu for training.

Having to manage both sides is taking a toll on her health.

It's my fault, I wasn't thoughtful enough.

I didn't know that things would be this hectic on your end.

Xiaoran, are you not feeling well?

I've been feeling dizzy lately.

Since Shangqi mentioned,

then let's do as he said.

Here, try some of these.

-It's good. - I's good.

I thought you didn't like organ meat?

The grilled fish maw in Wusu changed him.

Sir,

Can we have 5 more sticks of grilled fish maw?

I'm so sorry, we are sold out for the day.

I'll compensate you with one.

It's delicious.

You should eat too.

What sound is that?

What song are you playing right now?

This song is quite popularly lately.

I think it's called “Can".

"Can."

Stop the music.

Li Hui, isn't this the song that you wrote for Tang Yan?

Why did he release it?

Is Li Hui alright?

Look at how angry she is.

- I'm going to find that jerk. - They've broken up, why is Tang Yan doing this?

You should worry about cheering Li Hui up.

What's wrong? You have no appetite?

I just feel that

food tastes better when you're fighting for a bite, like when I was young.

Fei'er, you don't have to go back to your old life.

You no longer need to fight for food with anyone.

Don't wait for me tonight.

I have to go out.

You're here.

Xiaoran.

Isn't your training just half a day? What took you so long?

Shangqi and I waited for quite a while.

You both...

Let's go. The lighting won't be good if it gets late.

Where are we going?

Don't tell her. Give her a surprise.

- Ok - Ok.

Look at the camera. 3, 2, 1.

Alright, stand closer.

Look at the camera.

Smile. Look happier.

3, 2, 1.

It seems like you're quite good at this.

This is for you.

"I had a crush on you willingly for the longest time."

He Xiaoran, your public confession is even more aggressive than the song dedication.

Xiao Shangqi is so frightened by you, he fled overseas overnight.

Not bad at all.

Why don't we rest for a while?

Mr. Xiao, have a look at the photos.

Let's see.

Hold this for me.

Thank you.

This one looks not too bad.

What a surprise, right. It's as if we went back in time.

We need some photos for the wedding. As you know,

we were in a hurry to leave the country, so we didn't have time for graduation photos back then.

I thought of going to a studio to just take some photos,

but it didn't feel right.

I discussed with Shangqi and we decided to bring you back to school too.

Isn't it just photos? You're quite the perfectionist.

It's not me, it's Shangqi.

Xiaoran, if that incident didn't happen back then,

we would have graduated like this, right?

What would we be like now?

I don't know.

You know, from a clumsy and naive boy,

Shangqi has grown up to become gentle and caring.

Don't I deserve some credit?

I never agreed to date him,

but if not for the time that he'd spent pursuing me,

he wouldn't be this skilful when it comes to doting on girls.

I remember, during university, I was locked out of my home on a weekend,

he brought me out to search for the noodles that I wanted to try late at night.

I finally found the restaurant.

They wouldn't make it, so he went into the kitchen to make me a bowl.

Honestly speaking, it tasted so bad.

Fei'er, I need to go to the washroom.

It was tiring taking pictures today.

You looked quite happy.

I thought Fei'er was making a mountain out of a molehill,

but it felt good after being back in school.

It brought back a lot of memories.

Does these dishes suit your taste?

The meat is overcooked and the vegetables taste a little salty.

The rest taste sweet.

You've only been here for a few days. Are you already missing the food in Wusu?

Wait a minute.

I'll be right back.

Here, here, here, here.

How can I let my girlfriend starve?

Try out your boyfriend's cooking.

This is Jifeng's signature Yang Chun Noodles.

I never agreed to date him, but if it wasn't for the time he'd spent pursuing me

he wouldn't be this skilful when it comes to doting on girls.

Actually, I don't really feel like eating noodles.

Then, what do you want to eat? I'll order for you.

No need. I'm actually not that hungry.

I'm tired. I want to go home.

Alright.

Let's go. I'll take you home.

Take your belongings.

Why are you here?

To have breakfast.

Hey!

I just finished exercising, I really need to have a good meal.

Go to the restaurant then.

Go to the restaurant?

it's I can only order black coffee and salad there. The wedding is almost here...

Everyone wants me to watch my weight. It's good that at your place, I can relax a little.

You have to keep my secret.

Oh right!

Yunduan's sandwiches and croissants are really good, have you tried them before?

You're going out?

You're afraid Xiaoran will misunderstand?

If your girlfriend was anyone else, I would be worried.

Since it's Xiaoran, I feel at ease.

Three of us have been friends for so many years. Xiaoran clearly knows that...

If there was something between you and me, it would have happened already.

Fei'er.

If you are actually Xiaoran's friend, then you would be worried.

It's called 'respect'.

Xiaoran, there's a place I need you go with me this afternoon.

[Remember to take one pill a day!]

What made you think of digging these up all of a sudden?

It's way past the time we decided on. I wanted Shangqi to come too...

But, he's too busy.

Oh right, Where's yours?

I already dug it out before.

Didn't we agree to share what we wrote when we dig it out?

25 years old Chen Fei'er. I only have two wishes.

One, to find a warm home for myself.

Two, for the iron trio to never be separated.

Looks like I am a winner in life.

I have always been achieving both of these.

Let's look at Shagqi's.

Why don't we let him...

I hope I can always stay by Fei'er's side and protect her.

I hope Xiaoran can fulfill her dream as a reporter as early as possible.

What if your wishes doesn't come true 7 years later? What are you going to do then?

Not possible. It will definitely come true.

What about you?

If it doesn't come true in 7 years, I still have a lifetime.

I'm sorry, Xiaoran. I should have thought about it earlier.

No problem, it's a thing of the past, and it's not a secret.

Right.

Xiaoran

Have you tried the lye bread at Yunduan? You should try it sometime, it's good.

Xiaoran, can you wait for me a little longer?

You do your work, no need to worry about me.

Oh right!

There is an afternoon tea buffet.

You should go and eat there. No need to pay as they know who you are.

I'm hanging up.

Hi, Miss He. Are you looking for lye bread?

The lye bread that you ordered yesterday in Mr. Xiao's room is over there.

I never ordered any.

Sorry, I'm mistaken. Pick whatever you want.

Have you tried the lye bread at Yunduan? You should try it sometime, it's good.

Xiaoran, something cropped up. I can't make it back in time. Come over to where I'm at.

Yes, a layer of cherry and a layer of sugar spread atop each other.

How long does it take to make a fruit wine like this?

Usually after three months, the color is very attractive

But if you want to make good wine, it's best to wait for a year.

Of course, during a year's time, there may be many variables.

At the end, whether this bottle will turn out to be fine wine, or bitter wine,

it all lies in the hands of time.

Xiaoran

Why you I feel like you are uneasy?

I'm not.

This is a place that supplies fruits specially to Yunduan.

This is the best season to make fruit wine.

I came here today to discuss some matters. That took up some time.

So I thought I should get you to come over for a breather.

How does it sound?

Has the training been tiring?

We're reaching the end, so there are many assignments.

Really?

Yesterday in the lobby I head a servers say...

- Sorry. - You should take the call first.

Hello Fei'er.

II'm outside

What do you need?

Many couples come here to make wine together.

It is also a continuation of a promise.

Next year at this time, when you guys come back here

and open this wine and taste fine wine, it's a very meaningful experience.

I have a car here, you can write something on it.

Next year you can open it and read it.

One year is too long. Who knows what will things be like a year later?

I'll go and get the car.

Xiao Shangqi, why are you in such a rush?

If you really are in a rush and can't wait to meet someone else. You should've just said so, I can find my own way home.

Xiaoran.

What are you thinking lately?

I'm not thinking anything.

Are you really not thinking anything?

Why are you acting so strange lately? You brush me off when I call you at night.

You're right. I am in a rush. I delayed 3 meetings this afternoon.

Just to be with you. What about you?

You're accompanying me, but you're also very reluctant about it.

Inside, you're blaming me for taking up your time. Right?

Do you know how distracted you've become after answering the call from Chen Fei'er?

I'm distracted?

I'm angry that you actually said you don't know how we will be like after a year.

What is the point of our relationship? Just seizing the day?

The reason why you're treating me like this,

is because you're tired?

Don't change the topic.

Has she been in your room or not?

Xiao Shangqi, if you are claiming to choose me

because you decided to settle for second best, then I'd rather my feelings stay as a crush.

I also don't want it to be like this.

I don't want a relationship that will always be outshined by an old flame.

Xiaoran, I thought that there would be a certain trust between us

The longer we are together.

I trusted you too much.

Xiaoran.

Third Brother.

You're here, Xiao Qi. You're late. Grab a glass.

Ok.

Wow.

You're good at holding your liquor.

You're Director Xiao from Yunlan, right? You're cool.

Xiaoqi has been following me like a tail since he was young.

He always calls me "Third Brother" while picking up after me, right?

You're the one who manages Wusu Jifeng hotel?

You're doing a good job.

-Thank you. -Director Zhao

Isn't it a waste of Xiaoqi's abilities, asking him to plan your wedding?

Xiao Qi and Fei'er are high school classmates.

He even pursued Fei'er.

- Is it true? - I should be in the know.

Why are you talking about that now?

That's all in the past, I have a new girlfriend now.

That's a pity. Xiaoqi is good-looking.

My niece is still single.

Secretary Lee saw her once, right?

You should consider, Director Xiao.

Just looking at family background alone, she's much better than your current girlfriend.

Why shortchange yourself?

Third Brother.

Has your secretary been working with you for too long?

He's forgetting his own position.

Let's do this then...

Why don't you fire him? I'll find a better one for you.

There's no need to.

Three.

You always say that I'm like a younger brother to you.

Shouldn't you take better care of your younger brother?

Otherwise, I'll keep clear accounts even if you say we're brothers.

It was you who arranged the fake video of Jifeng, wasn't it?

And I heard that you bribed the head chef.

- Director Zhao. - Xiao Lee,

hand in your resignation to the HR department tomorrow.

If you offend Xiao Qi, that means you offend me as well.

Cheers.

- Come on. Cheers. - Cheers.

You've been coming home early lately.

How come you have time to take a walk with me? Aren't you dating someone?

Mom,

I have a question for you.

Before you and my dad got married,

did he fall in love with someone else?

Why are you asking me this?

I don't know why.

I just can't help

thinking that he's fallen in love with someone else before.

I can't help comparing myself with others.

Did he do the exact same thing to someone else

as he does to me?

Does he really like me? Or is he only used to having me by his side?

Xiaoran,

you've truly grown up now.

You're worried about this kind of thing.

Mom.

Actually, to be honest,

you and Xiao Qi have known each other for years.

You both are sometimes friends and sometimes a couple.

I'm not sure what you both have in mind.

Well, to be honest with you, I was pretty worried about you.

But not anymore recently.

Are you aware that you've changed significantly?

Really?

A good relationship will make you shine bright.

Look at you.

Look at my daughter. She's loved and cared about.

But let me tell you something.

The most important thing about a relationship is trust in each other.

Do you blindly trust someone no matter what happens?

How could you blindly trust someone? You need to communicate of course, right?

If you have any thoughts or feel uncomfortable,

you must tell him right away.

Look, if you keep it all to yourself and he can't figure it out,

even something simple will turn complicated.

Once there's some misunderstanding, you get upset or even fight over it.

Is it worth it?

[Can you come pick me up?]

Is it Xiao Qi?

Go ahead.

Go talk with him. Any misunderstandings will be resolved.

Don't overthink.

Chen Fei'er's exclusive anti-hangover fruit tea.

I'm good. Thanks.

Shangqi, what's going on?

Secretary Li has worked for Zhao Mingxuan for a long time. You usually show respect to them.

Tell him that I'm a light drinker. I have to go now.

So you were waiting for her to care about you.

Why did you drink so much?

Let's go.

Be careful.

I can walk.

Watch it.

Over here.

[Chen Fei'er] Someone mentioned just now that he liked me when we were students.

[Chen Fei'er] Maybe he didn't feel comfortable with it,

[Chen Fei'er] so he drank more than usual. Take care of him.

What are you doing? What do you want?

If anything upsets you, just beat me up.

You're drunk. Stand aside. Stand aside.

I learned that as a student, you would box when you felt unhappy.

It's pretty good now.

You keep everything from me and make me guess.

I don't want to guess anymore. Why don't you beat me up?

Sure. You said it.

Xiaoran,

I didn't know until I went to the school

that the grandstand where you used to watch me play soccer was scorching hot in the sunshine.

And the good window seat in the library that you saved for me,

you had to get up very early to grab it.

Was this all that crossed your mind when you went to the school?

What else could have crossed my mind?

How I wish

I'd realized who I truly liked sooner.

Don't you be so mean to me.

I've never been so serious about a relationship.

Forget it.

Since you've liked me for so long,

I'll return the favor.

How are you going to return it?

♫ It is but only a goodbye ♫
