[Falling Before Fireworks]

[Episode 12]

Wait.

What is it this time?

The down jacket.

You did it on purpose.

I think

my period came.

[Laughing]

[Laughing]

Come in.

I made you brown sugar water.

Have some.

Okay.

I put it in the master bedroom.

Hug.

Can't sleep?

There seems to be a child crying outside.

No.

Really, listen carefully.

It's cats meowing.

Spring is here.

Does your stomach still hurt?

Not bad.

I'm used to it.

Go to sleep.

[Things you stole in winter] [will be returned in spring.]

[Now, spring is here.] [It's not only spring that's here.]

[Flying Mode] [Location Service]

[What is lithromanticism?]

So it's not sexual apathy.

♫Back in the early days♫

♫I used to play those games♫

♫Until I realized that none of them was true♫

♫I knew I'd work it out, I never had no doubt♫

♫I didn't think that I would meet someone like you♫

♫Everything about you makes me feel so right♫

[Jing Garden]

♫All of my life, I have been searching for you♫

♫Someone to change that whole world that I know♫

♫Open my eyes, and I know I can finally feel what I love♫

Morning.

Morning.

So many?

I'll go get a cup of coffee.

I'm so sleepy.

Don't drink coffee during your period.

I'll be crippled if I don't drink it today.

Let's have breakfast first.

Don't drink on an empty stomach.

When did you get up?

Usually at 6:30.

I got up late today.

Is it because you can't sleep well

because there's another person in bed?

Last night, I couldn't sleep too.

No.

Do you want to try

my melatonin?

Although

it's useless to me,

but it should suit you.

Have some porridge.

Have some dumplings.

[East Eight Ward] [West Eight Ward]

[West Eight Ward]

Yun, your results are out.

You need to show the doctor.

Who picked these?

Don't fool me with these machine-made sculptures.

[West Eight Ward]

They look similar to me.

I can't tell if it's handmade or made by a machine.

Well,

patterns carved by machines are shallow

and lack a sense of dimension.

It's not vivid enough

and lacks vitality.

And good piece of wood

can't be carved by machines.

It can only be carved by hand.

Well,

I'm sorry.

I talked too much.

I happen to need

a handmade table screen.

Will you take the job?

The price is negotiable.

Okay.

Well,

please add my assistant's WeChat.

We'll tell you the specific requirements later.

Here, sir.

Let me add you on WeChat.

Master Zhong,

I'll be there in half an hour.

What do you think I need to bring?

Why are you calling me?

Talk to me when you arrive.

Okay.

Chen, school is over?

Chen, school is over.

Chen.

Come to grandpa's for soy milk tomorrow morning.

Thank you, grandpa.

Chen, come here.

Take these snacks back later.

You're growing bigger.

Don't just eat preserved vegetables with your grandpa.

Thank you, granny.

Good.

Chen, come here.

Thread a needle for me.

You're back.

Jing Chen is back.

You have nothing to do.

You're wasting my time again.

Eat while it's hot.

Don't listen to Zhong.

Thank you, grandma.

He heard that

Jin lent you his golden crown and became afraid

that you won't see him again.

He talks about your exhibition every day.

He likes it.

He was going to take you to the mountain to cut bamboo.

Young people nowadays

are living a good life.

You're too idle,

that's why you made that exhibition.

It's not a proper exhibition.

We just put some art pieces there

so that young people can see it.

I asked the elderly in the village

and they all said you're the best craftsman.

So I kept disturbing you.

Please take it.

What's the use of collecting this?

It's not an antique.

It's not worth much.

I advise you not to waste your energy.

My bamboo weaving skills,

just how many youths know about it?

Even if someone knows about this bamboo bag

and bamboo mat,

they wouldn't want to buy handmade ones.

To be honest,

I've been in this business

for decades.

Even when I was starving a few years ago,

I never thought about changing professions.

I admit

the times have changed.

It's the same.

Valuable and meaningful things

will be noticed by the public again sooner or later.

Thank you, Manager Si.

Well,

this client is very generous.

Although she's a bit demanding,

the price is not low.

When I finish this screen,

I'll be able to pay off all my debts to the bank.

Really.

In a few days,

I can return some of the money.

Well,

the client said

as long as my design

has no problems,

she can pay the deposit first.

Master Teng, you have good skills.

Once you get introduced to more clients,

your business will get better.

Thank you, Manager Si.

I’m so sorry.

In my life,

I've never done anything bad.

But in the end,

I still

lied to you for money.

Let's forget about the past.

How is it going with the design

you just mentioned?

I'm uneducated.

I'm good at wood carving

but not that good at drawing.

[Recruitment]

Look at this.

I'm going to find a student good at drawing

in front of the art school.

[Recruitment]

I heard their price is cheap.

Are you talking about the Academy of Art?

[Recruitment]

I think so.

How about this?

Wait for a night.

I'll go home and ask my husband.

Maybe he can help.

Really?

That's great. Thank you.

You're back.

Did you make all these?

Let's go eat.

What did you cook today?

You'll know when you see it.

He's the wooden carving master you mentioned last night,

who lied to you

and nearly made you lose your career?

That's him.

But it's understandable

that I got tricked.

He

really looks like

a very simple and kind man.

And his skills

are on a master level.

Let me show you a photo I took of his work.

Especially the roots he carved.

Look.

Let me see.

Isn't that the roots carved by a master?

It's very intricate.

Aren't you afraid he'll lie to you again?

If you meet him,

you'll know Master Teng is not that kind of person.

He feels like grandpa.

He's like

the old craftsmen we often saw

when we were young.

No matter if it's windy or raining,

they stay in that corner every day

and focus on their craft.

They can't make much money,

but I'm just afraid that one day their regulars

won't be able to find them anymore.

Besides,

people with craftsmanship and evil intentions

won't be in such as bad situation like Master Teng.

If it's not troublesome,

just do me a favor

in case I get another bad loan.

Not at all.

You can ask him his schedule.

If possible, I'll go there tomorrow.

Why is my husband so versatile?

Who are you looking for?

Who is it?

What?

Why are you

dressed like a ghost at such an hour?

I'm wearing Ming Dynasty Chinese Hanfu.

I moved to Jing Garden.

We'll be neighbors from now on.

You act so fast.

Don't worry.

I won't do anything

despicable.

Otherwise,

I wouldn't have waited for you to come back

before saying hello.

Thank you so much.

Siqing,

don't be nervous.

I told you

I won't do anything despicable

while you're still married.

I'm worried about you.

We are newlyweds.

Wouldn't it be torturous when you

see and hear us?

Art comes from pain.

I'm willing to accept it.

All right.

I won't disturb you tonight.

See you tomorrow.

I didn't know you wore clothes like this at home.

No wonder you have hormonal...

Good night.

What are you making?

Wild ginger.

Eating ginger at night,

will make you die outright.

You want me to become Wu Dalang too?

This is for you to wash your hair and help with its growth.

So you think I'm bald

and hate that I have less hair than her!

Any update on the furniture design?

If Manager Si can’t deal with it,

I have to find another craftsman.

[Teng Liqun]

[Manager Si just sent me a message. Her husband agreed.]

He has a deep scar on his wrist.

You haven't seen it before?

Can't sleep?

I can't sleep.

I'm going to play on my phone.

[Yun Pian Above the Clouds]

It's almost dawn. Aren't you going to sleep?

I don't feel sleepy anymore.

I have insomnia.

You have to work tomorrow.

What's wrong?

Let's take a photo together.

Now?

You don't want to?

No, I've never taken a photo.

Never?

If you want to take one...

Who wants to take one?

I'm going to bed.

Morning.

Where are you?

Aren't you going to find Master Teng today?

So sly.

You even wore nude makeup for jogging.

You can only fool a straight male like Jing Chen.

Didn’t you always jog at night?

Why are you jogging in the morning today?

I always jog in the morning.

Don't forget to wake me up from now on.

In a few days,

I should exercise too.

Okay.

I'm equally available in the morning and evening.

I'll cooperate with you.

You don't have to drive me.

I often drove after staying up all night.

It's too dangerous.

You should sleep first.

I'll wake you when we arrive.

You can drive faster.

There's a speed limit.

There're no cameras here.

No need to rush for just ten minutes.

Please turn on the GPS.

What did you say?

GPS.

[My location]

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

[93m Enter Qixia Road]

[93m Enter Qixia Road]

You're not sleepy?

I'm sleepy.

But I can't sleep.

I should play a game.

We should arrive after that.

Is it distracting you?

Yes.

Okay, I'll turn the sound off.

Can you stop playing with your phone?

Why?

Playing with your phone in the car is bad for your eyes.

Normally, after 20,

myopia will stop getting worse.

Whatever.

Why did you stop?

Red light.

It was a yellow light.

You can just keep driving.

It's not illegal.

We just need to wait for 30 seconds.

That's right, these 30 seconds

will make me late for the first time in my career.

Safety is more important.

There was no car just now. How could it be dangerous?

Siqing,

I don't want to quarrel.

What do you mean?

Are you saying I'm picking a fight?

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

Morning, master.

What's wrong? Did you have a fight?

No.

Give it to your master.

No quarrel?

Then it's a cold war.

Let me deal with it.

Master Teng.

Come in.

Feel free to sit or look around.

I'm sorry.

This one is not for sale.

Hello, Master Teng.

I'm the husband of Siqing, the client manager of NCB,

Jing Chen.

I’m here to ask about your specific requirements for the design.

Hello.

Sorry.

Come, sit down.

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

Where is the lunch box from your husband?

Your honeymoon period is over so soon.

Of course not.

I already heated up the food.

[Nancheng Commercial Bank]

Master.

I haven't tried Chen's cooking for a long time.

Let me have a bite.

Sure.

Let's eat on the rooftop.

Okay.

She's staying next door?

This is too...

So you and Chen

quarreled because of this?

I wish he was willing to fight with me.

But I'm not qualified to affect his emotions.

No.

Master.

Don't get me wrong. This has nothing to do with you.

I've known Chen for so long

but never seen him lose his temper.

Really.

He has been like that since he was a kid.

Grandpa Jing taught him that.

He must have control of his emotions.

If he hadn't lost control of his emotions before,

how did he get the scar on his hand?

You knew?

We are husband and wife.

He shouldn't have kept it from me.

Don't blame him.

He didn't mean to hide it from you.

Men

don't like losing face.

This type of stuff

is not something glorious after all.

What about Yun Pian?

When did she know?

She was the first one to know.

At that time,

Chen was very dispirited.

He didn't care if his hand

could be crippled.

Later I realized

that physical pain

was nothing to Chen.

What really bothered him

was the barrier in his heart.

That means

he got

post-traumatic stress disorder from it, right?

They have such a close relationship.
