[Forever and Ever]

[Episode 5]

[Bremen]

You’re on an extra tight schedule this time.

Why aren’t you staying a few more days?

Got plans at home?

Spending time with my Fiancee.

Fiancee?

We all thought you were married to science.

I heard afternoon tea, dinner, and midnight snacks

are served in the recording studio

every day.

There are too many scenes with crying in this drama.

It’s rough on my voice.

I want to take a week off to relax.

A week off to let your voice rest

or to give you time for a secret date?

Let’s say work for now.

It’s sorted.

You’re off next week.

You’ll only one bit of

dubbing work to do, for a commercial.

A fifteen-second version

and a thirty-second version.

Three hours at most.

We can talk about personal stuff now?

It’s the guy I told you about.

So it’s him after all.

When do I get to meet him?

I’m an old hand at this stuff.

Put him in front of me and I’ll size him up.

I’ll help you check if he’s sincere.

He’s not a smooth talker like you.

I’m sure you’ll be hard on him.

The general’s wife admits defeat for the general

before he has even gone into battle.

What general?

He’s a researcher.

I didn’t forget the story

of how you two met, you know.

Naming really is a big deal.

A good name

helped him meet his future wife.

I’m happy for you.

I wish you great success in both your career and love-life.

Career?

Miss Shi Yi.

Congratulations on the award.

To be precise, it’s a nomination.

But they all say

it’s a sure thing for you this time.

That’s not necessarily true.

There’s been a lot of good work this year.

[Alarm Clock]

I need to make a call.

What kind of call

is so important you set an alarm to remind you?

Hello?

It’s me.

What time did you start work today?

1 pm.

Do you like late snacking at night?

So, what time

will you finish today?

I’m already done.

I’ve called it a day.

Why didn’t you call me

today at noon?

I was too busy

around then to call.

Do you have a cold?

I’m fine.

I just caught a small cold last night.

Have you taken any medicine?

No, I haven’t.

Then hang up now. Go take your medicine.

Right now?

Yes.

There’s no medicine around me now.

You don’t have any

regular medicine with you?

How are you here?

I’m back.

Give me a minute!

♫ Time can’t steal memories ♫

♫ With all my strength ♫

♫ To find traces of you ♫

I’m gonna head off.

We’re not done talking about the award thing yet!

We’ll talk over the phone!

♫ Spring flowers and autumn moon ♫

There’s no need to rush,

♫ Hidden in my heart ♫

he’s not going to run away.

♫ Write words for you ♫

♫ Tenderly and carefully ♫

[Recording Studio]

♫ Rewrite the end of the past ♫

Why did you come back?

♫ Let the story continue ♫

And without telling me in advance!

♫ You’re in my dreams ♫

I wanted to surprise you.

♫ It’s getting clearer and clearer ♫

Are you still leaving tonight?

♫ When the heart beats, one, two, three, four ♫

Where to?

♫ It starts to tremble ♫

I mean, besides seeing me tonight,

♫ The rhythm of love is composed for you ♫

have you got anything else you need to do?

Tonight,

♫ Go to the end of the world with you ♫

I don’t have anything

besides seeing you.

My mission tonight is to

♫ And be your companion for a lifetime ♫

take you home.

♫ When every second of time ♫

♫ Becomes precious ♫

Let’s go then.

♫ Because of you ♫

I’ll carry it for you.

♫ I know what heartache feels like ♫

♫ Forever and ever is like a dream ♫

♫ I’ll still be with you ♫

Hello?

Shi Yi.

I just saw you

and your chemistry professor.

But

I didn’t get a good look at him.

Is he handsome?

I’ll talk to you later.

Good night.

You still have work to do this late?

No.

Meilin was just saying good night.

Uncle Lin.

We always see each other,

but I don’t know your name yet.

Zhou Lin.

Your last name is also Zhou.

Isn’t Uncle Lin’s nephew

called Lin Fei?

Lin Fei is actually Zhou Linfei.

In fact, the senior housekeepers

in our family

are all surnamed Zhou.

They are more or less our distant relatives.

But if the whole family

all uses the surname Zhou,

it might be confusing.

So we’re used to calling people

just by the characters in their given name.

Indeed.

There are a lot of people, so it helps us distinguish.

Why are you carrying a bag

in the car?

Give it to me.

Come on up.

Do you want to come to my house?

Is it too late?

I’d like to make you some medicinal tea to keep the cold away.

It takes about 20 minutes.

Half an hour at most.

But I’ve never

entered

a girl’s house.

Didn’t you say

you like Wu Ge’s embroidery?

How come you’re so…

So unromantic?

A little.

I want to ask you a question.

Go ahead.

You said that the two of us

are one of your research areas.

What if this research is in the wrong area?

You’re making a

conceptual error.

What conceptual error?

The research area itself

can’t be right and wrong.

Only the method of experimentation can be wrong.

And what if the experimental method is wrong?

If the experimental method is wrong,

we can change the method.

But the research area itself

will not change.

That sounds very convincing.

For example, the fact that

we’re together

is not going to change.

If something goes wrong,

we can

change the way we get along.

Science and technology

are not only the greatest productive force.

They’re also the best language.

Let’s go.

Come on in.

This is the house I bought myself.

Xiaoyu and I share it.

She lives in that room.

Sit down first. I’ll make some medicine for you.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

I just think it’s cute.

It’s Xiaoyu’s.

You should wrap up in spring and wear less in autumn.

Don’t be in such a hurry to wear

your summer clothes in spring.

The weather has been changing a lot in the past ten days.

It’s easy to catch a cold.

I just have a mild cold.

I don’t need to drink medicine.

This is herbal medicine to dispel the cold.

If it’s a cold,

you’ll feel better within a day.

It works so well?

Of course it does.

You didn’t think

I deliberately made an excuse

to get you to come up, did you?

In fact, just now downstairs,

I didn’t mean to say no.

I just thought

I did the engagement thing

out of blue.

So I want to take things slowly.

But really I did want to come up.

He feels shy now.

You sounded calm

when you proposed.

Yet now you’re shy.

Next time you want to come up,

just say so.

You’re in a hurry to leave?

I have to go back to Zhenjiang

tonight.

I’ll have dinner with my family tomorrow morning.

You’re driving back overnight?

Then finish this and go.

I don’t mean to kick you out.

I just mean if you leave now,

you can at least get two hours of sleep at home.

Otherwise you won’t get any sleep at all.

Okay.

No need to...

You didn’t waste a drop, that’s good.

Let’s go. I’ll see you off.

I came back early this time

because you were

nominated for the award.

You found out so quickly!

My agent just told me.

Congratulations.

I may not win.

So

you’re back for the award presentation?

Kind of.

The rest of my time will be spent

preparing for the engagement ceremony.

I’ll head back, then.

I’ll come back on the day of the award presentation.

Okay.

Bye.

That room on the 12th floor is the bathroom.

It looks like the heating lamp is on.

She’s probably in the shower.

I’m back.

I went out for something to eat.

Smells like Chinese medicine.

You had some Chinese medicine?

Haven’t you always hated

this smell?

I didn’t want to disappoint her.

It’s just a cup of Chinese medicine.

It’s just a cup of Chinese medicine.

Chen.

Actually I really wanted to ask

the two of you…

You want to ask me

how we met?

Then tell me, in your own words.

At Guangzhou Baiyun Airport,

she caught up with me

and asked for my contact information.

A person who likes you

must be as weird as you.

I think I’m quite lucky.

I never thought

I would be liked by

a girl like her.

25 minutes.

So it takes her 25 minutes

to take a shower.

Uncle.

I’ve brought Chen’s clothes.

He came back sick.

He was so tired that he fell asleep.

Let him sleep a little longer.

He’ll change it later.

Why do you treat him

as if he were your own son?

In my heart,

he is my son.

Chen is back.

Really?

When?

Last night.

He went to Shanghai to see his fiancee first

and came back overnight.

He didn’t even sleep.

Just dozed in the car for a while.

They are so close.

Chen, a small farewell is better than a new marriage, right?

Just write something

so you don’t have to say too much to them.

What’s this?

What you have to study in college.

Chen.

How did you sleep last night?

I was in Shanghai all last night.

I didn’t have time to sleep yet.

I see.

Your mother and I

had a discussion.

We decided

to let your fiancee come to Zhenjiang.

In this way,

she can learn about the business

from your mother.

She doesn’t need to.

Since you’re getting married,

she needs to.

She’s not a good fit for it.

Neither are you.

But you have to take it over.

Since you don’t think it’s a good fit,

it’s not too late to rethink the whole thing.

I don’t have to.

She’s perfect for me.

Why are you eating my food again?

This is mine.

You just ate my food.

Don’t think I have to give in to you

just because you’re young.

Chen.

I’m busy.

What’s wrong?

Want some grapes?

No, help yourself.

Chen.

They are too embarrassed to ask you.

About what?

It’s about your bed.

Do you want to get a new one?

Why do I need a new one?

Miss Shi Yi,

isn’t she going to

enter our home?

She has to stay here, right?

It’s a new bride entering the family home.

You at least have to

change the bed first, right?

No need to.

I think it’s fine.

Are you sure?

It’s sturdy enough?

I don’t see there being a problem.

I’ve been sleeping on it for so many years.

What could be wrong with it?

I’m going.

So,

you don’t want to change it, right?

Otherwise, we’ll change it.

Prepare to change the bed.

Change it to the biggest one, understand?

What are you talking about?

Why do you care about this?

Also, clean up

the guest room on the second floor too.

I’ll sleep there.

Sleeping in separate rooms?

It’s the first day.

He’s just pretending it.

Men are like this.

Men are like this?

[Recording Studio]

The Junior Prince of Nanchen had no wife or children in his life.

But frequent rumors had it he had secret affairs

with the crown princess.

After the death of the Junior Prince of Nanchen,

the crown princess soon passed away also.

There were rumors

she hanged herself from a 10-foot-tall building

in the royal mansion.

There were also rumors

she leapt from

the walls of the capital city.

There are many different stories

with no definitive conclusion.

The crown princess’ handwriting, reading

“The Shanglin Fugue” in the library of royal mansion,

is the only evidence,

which has been handed down to future generations

to make a beautiful story.

His life’s glory

has been buried deep in the world

in just a few words.

Congratulations, Miss Shi.

Another work done.

Thanks for the hard work.

You wrapped it up perfectly.

Thank you for your hard work, too.

You’ve been here for two days.

Meilin gave me special instructions.

She said

you were going to attend the award ceremony tomorrow,

you must finish early today.

What?

Are you going to celebrate in advance?

I need to borrow a dress.

Why do you need to borrow a dress?

Why don’t you just buy it?

I’ll just wear it once.

It’s a waste to buy it.

It’s true.

Shi Yi.

You’re supposed to borrow it from the brand

to attend this kind of activity.

It’s too much trouble.

Even if I get in touch with the brand,

they may not lend me one.

Meilin has a friend

who owns a shop.

Two dinner dresses have arrived.

She asked me to try them on.

I’ll be off then.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Director Wang.

Can I also

get off work?

Yes.

What do you think?

Let’s take this one.

I always feel that

my dress doesn’t deserve

your face and body.

In fact, you look classical and elegant.

You can try

a red dress instead.

I don’t like red.

Why?

Red looks good on people,

especially on a beauty like you.

I can’t explain.

Since I was a child, I have been unhappy

when my mother dressed me in red.

Maybe it’s too garish.

What about your wedding?

I can probably accept that once

for my wedding.

This side of the waistline

can be narrowed down.

I’ll try to fix it for you.

Thank you.

I’ll tell her.

Guess who’s looking for me?

Who is it?

Wang Yingdong.

He borrowed a dress for you,

let me take you to the store to try it on.

No need.

Haven’t we picked it out already?

Mr. Wang Yingdong

was shut out once again.

Pity him for three seconds.

Then I’ll have to trouble you for the dress.

Okay.

By the way,

does your boyfriend need a suit?

I have a few here.

No, he has his own suit.

Okay, then.

[Gather fortune]

Have some grapes.

I know you find them dirty

if they were washed by other people.

I washed them for you.

Grandma.

I have to go home.

I’ll see you next time.

Okay, okay.

Grandma, I’ll go see her off.

Go on, go on.

Man.

Man.

I’ll drive you home.

I don’t feel assured

to let you go home alone.

I can’t sit in

your car.

Man, can you stop this?

You’re here too.

She said she wanted to visit Grandma.

I’ll drive her.

The engagement gift you asked for

has been sent to Shanghai.

It will arrive today.

Thank you.

You’re welcome.

I’ll leave now.

Grandma is relaxing in the sun inside.

Tell her

I had to leave.

Grandma.

Chen?

Chuan and Man just left.

I ran into them

outside just now.

These two kids.

I think they’re in a good relationship.

Why aren’t they married yet?

You’re the older brother.

You have to think for your brothers.

Okay, okay, okay.

Well.

Uncle Lin.

You stay with Grandma for a while.

I’ll go to the room to check it out.

Okay, okay, go ahead.

Come on.

Lin, sit down.

Okay, okay, I’ll sit down.

How have you been these days?

I’m fine.

Have some grapes.

Grapes.

Have one.

I don’t…

I’m getting old.

My teeth can’t

take them.

It’s so sour.

Have one.

It’s sweet.

Okay.

Have one.

Eat up, eat up.

It’s fine, it’s fine.

Eat up.

Chen, you’re here.

You should take a break here.

Don’t get too busy.

Was this table

broken before?

A child that came last week

made a fuss and broke it.

I didn’t have time to fix it.

It’s already fixed.

I just thought

there’s something I haven’t done yet.

I’m used to being in the lab.

I always focus on details.

Don’t mind me, Auntie.

Not at all.

Of course not.

You are filial and attentive.

I can tell.

I’ll do it.

You go and rest.

I’ll go check on Grandma.

Grandma?

You’re sleepy?

I’m not sleepy, I’m not sleepy.

Chen

I have a lot

to talk to you about.

Grandma.

I’m not leaving tonight.

You’re not leaving?

Okay.

Go to Grandma’s room.

Grandma will give you something nice to eat.

Let’s go.

Something nice to eat.

Come on, come on.

Sit there. Sit there.

Grandma will get you something tasty.

Here it is.

Look at this.

I found it! I found it!

Look at this.

Look at this.

Isn’t this

your favorite food when you were a kid?

Yes, it was my favorite.

Open it up and eat.

I mean,

when will your wife

come and visit me?

Grandma.

I didn’t even tell you.

How did you know?

You’re not happy to tell Grandma?

No, I’m not.

Actually, I came here today

to tell you about it.

But I haven’t had the chance.

Okay.

Then...

How long have you been in a relationship?

We were engaged first and then fell in love.

What?

Is that the popular way among

young people now?

No, Grandma.

We’re not like other people.

The doorbell rang. Can’t you hear it?

I’m coming.

Hello.

It’s you.

What can I do for you?

Uncle Lin and our family

have ordered six engagement suits.

The address is here.

Two sets are ready first.

They asked us to deliver them today.

I’m sorry you had to send them here.

I’m so sorry.

Please come in.

You don’t feel at ease?

No, I’m not.

You’ve been having this habit since you were a kid.

Once you’ve got something on your mind,

you start rubbing things.

I’m afraid she wouldn’t like them.

But now it’s too late

to make a new one.

I really regret it now.

I should have taken her to buy them.

But in front of me,

she would only pick the cheap ones,

instead of picking the right ones.

Uncle Lin.

Am I thinking too much?

Yes, indeed.

Looking this way and that.

Hello?

Although you didn’t ask me,

I want to say

I like them all.

I have the tickets for tomorrow.

I left two for

you and Uncle Lin.

Where should I send them?

Uncle Lin doesn’t like crowds and all that excitement.

One is enough.

I’ll ask someone to pick it up.

Bye-bye.

These two

are both your favorite colors.

You told him?

Uncle Lin.

Come with me to the lake.

Now?

Yes, yes. Hurry up.

What on earth?

I haven’t driven in years

Uncle Lin.

You have to help me ease back into this.

It’s not your style to just

pick it up again on the fly.

But there are times in life

when you need to make some changes.

You still remember the rules of the road, right?

How can I not remember?

I remember everything.

Since you do…

let’s go.

I’m really leaving.

Okay.

I’m leaving right now.

What are you waiting for?

Let’s go.

Uncle Lin.

Do you remember all the rules of the road?

I’ve been a driver for decades.

How can I not remember?

Let’s go.

You’re not even wearing a seatbelt.

You remember every traffic rule?

I’ve never sat on the passenger side in my life.

I’m really not used to it.

Uncle Lin.

It’s time for you to retire.

Why are you saying I should retire?

Are you worried about me

watching you youngsters

in love?

[Gather fortune]

Grandma.

Chen.

Why are you up?

I’ve warmed up a glass of milk for you.

Drink it hot.

You’ll sleep better

with some hot milk.

You can focus better,

and you’ll be more attentive

when you study.

Grandma.

I don’t study anymore.

I teach people to study.

That’s right.

I’m so muddled.

I’m muddled.

Drink it hot.

Drink it hot.

Sit there and drink it.

Sit there and drink it.

You haven’t finished

what you wanted to say to me

from this afternoon.

I have been waiting until now.

What is it?

What’s the name of

your newly engaged girlfriend?

Her name is Shi Yi,

meaning the right time.

Shi Yi.

I won’t ask anything else.

You have better

taste than Grandma.

That’s for sure.

It’s a pity

that your mother couldn’t…

Your mother never had a proper wedding

before she passed away.

Chen.

You can’t do that to her.

You have to treat her well.

I will.

Good boy.

[The 34th Shanghai Huaxing Awards Ceremony Venue Entrance]

It’s okay.

Work is more important.

If I finish my work early,

I’ll wait for you backstage.

[Shi Yi]

It’s really okay.

I can’t make a phone call

on stage later.

I’ll send Meilin’s phone number

to you first.

If you need anything, you can call her.

[Shi Yi]

Why are you smiling?

It’s rare to see such a smile on your face.

Shi Yi?

Yes.

You’re in the right place.

Shi Yi’s someone.

Oh my God.

Are you having overwhelming happiness?

I really don’t understand.

Is the charm of a researcher so great?

My deepest impression of chemistry

is the concentrated sulfuric acid experiment.

That’s all you know.

You know a lot.

A little bit more than you do.

For example,

H SO.

What does it mean?

Bone-melting water?

Concentrated sulfuric acid.

Fine, I’m impressed.

Do I sound more educated

using the scientific name?

Yes.

I’ve learned it all before.

How come I forgot it all?

I gave it all back to the teacher.

We are also dedicated to finding potential

new stars with this attitude in the industry.

Why isn’t he here yet?

Should I go out to meet him?

No.

He was already on his way here.

Something came up in the lab.

So he went back.

Today, we have

not only invited all the award winners here,

but many senior experts

and big names in the industry

are also here to celebrate the event together.

First of all, let’s invite…

Miss Shi Yi, it’s our turn.

Next to be announced is

the Best Documentary Award

winning this year’s China Star Awards.

Please welcome the award-presenting guests,

young voice actress Shi Yi

and young actor Zhang Shuhong.

Please give them a warm welcome.

[The 34th Shanghai Huaxing Awards Ceremony]

[The 34th Shanghai Huaxing Awards Ceremony]

Hello, everyone.

I’m actor Zhang Shuhong.

Hello, everyone.

I’m voice actress Shi Yi.

What’s wrong with the car?

I don’t usually drive.

I’m afraid of parking it at the wrong place.

and cause trouble for others.

Just give the keys to the security guard

and let them park your car

in the VIP parking space.

It’s okay.

She’s already on stage?

She is.

What should I say about you?

I’ve been waiting so long.

Hurry up.

Miss Shi will be on stage twice today.

You already missed the first time.

She’s probably giving an award to someone on stage

at this moment.

You should hurry up and catch her.

Where are you going to sit?

She gave me a ticket in the middle row.

But I’m afraid it’d be rude

if I go in now.

That’s fine.

I’ll just

find a place for you

where you won’t disturb anyone.

What else do you want?

As long as I can see her clearly.

Sure.

Let’s go, let’s go. Hurry.

Shi Yi.

[The 34th Shanghai Huaxing Awards Ceremony]

Do you remember?

Although this is

our first time on stage together,

we’ve worked together

three times.

I remember.

The first time was in a drama you starred in.

I dubbed the lead actress.

That’s right.

The last two times

were when we dubbed

animated movies together.

This is it.

Yes, that’s right.

Although I’m a newcomer

in the world of voice acting,

I learned a lot from Miss Shi Yi.

I’ve learned a lot.

This place is pretty far away.

You can’t be caught on camera

and you can see Shi Yi clearly too.

Thank you.

You watch, I’ll do my thing.

Good.

The Best Documentary Winner

of 34th China Star Award.

The best documentary award goes to…

Congratulations to “As Always”.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

[The 34th Shanghai Huaxing Awards Ceremony]

Please.

Thank you all.

I’m very happy, truly delighted.

I’m very excited

to receive this award.

It’s a great honor.

Why are you sitting here?

I told them

I wanted to surprise you.

To just let me sit in a place

where I can see you clearly.

Do you know

what seat you’re sat in?

The first row

is for the organizers’ VIPs.

I more or less guessed that.

Shall we go?

You don’t have to wait until the end?

No, I don’t.

The award has already been given out.

It’ll cause trouble later

if the staff find out

we’re in other people’s seats.

Let’s go.

Your love and dedication

has completed this work.
