It is said that
casual connections are unreliable.

Sure enough, it's short-lasting.

Zhuang Jie,

my skills won't
stand a chance against you.

So,

just let it be.

=Will Love In Spring=

(Adapted from the original work
"Lover" by She Mu Si)

=Episode 16=

Grandma.

Remember to unplug the charger
once it's fully charged.

I've also placed a box of nuts
under your bed.

Got it.

I have a gathering tonight.
I won't be back for dinner.

Go order something nice
from that food court.

Have something freshly cooked.

I hear you, now go.

How naggy can you be?

Who's there?

Grandma. It's me.

Why didn't you come inside?
You scared me.

Grandma. I brought you
some local produce.

We have shredded beef jerky,

cold rice cakes, and shelled peanuts.

These peanut candies are delicious.

They're all snacks,

be careful not to
let them ruin your appetite.

Dong said you were working.

He didn't even tell me where you went.

Look at you.

You still buy so many things for me
despite your busy schedule.

Grandma, don't need to play host.

I'll go back
after leaving this stuff with you.

Apart from telling you
that I'm working, did Chen Maidong

tell you anything else?

No.

He said you're quite busy lately
and didn't have time to see me.

Here.

Thanks.

Grandma.

Don't sit too close. I'm having a cold.

No wonder your face looks so skinny.

I think you've worked too hard.

Why are you still working
on New Year's Day?

You must be exhausted.

All right.

Grandma, I really have to go now.

I wouldn't want you to catch it.

I'll let you clean this up.

Visit you again when I get better.

Okay. Get some rest.

Bye.

One has unbearable nagging,

and the other one always
has someplace to go.

How I wish they could
balance each other out.

I've been looking forward to

our annual class reunion
since last year.

And we have a special guest today.

It's her first time joining us.

Really? I can't wait to find out.

Relax. Someone's not here yet.

There she is.

Hey, there.

Showing up late just like a superstar.

Oh, Zhuang Jie,
you've completely transformed.

Exactly.

I couldn't recognize her
on the streets.

Don't exaggerate.

You all looked pretty good, too.

Look at your radiant faces.

Why don't you sit here?

I'd rather not. I'm having a cold.

I don't want Chen Maidong to catch it.

Sit here with me.

If you sit here,
I might catch it, right?

Come on, you're healthy.

Stop flattering yourself.

Do you think Zhuang Jie's targeting you?

She's targeting Li Pei.

They're both business elites,
handsome and beautiful.

Perhaps, they could even

spark an interesting conversation
among themselves.

If I remember correctly,
you must be Liang Wei.

You used to love
picking up on conversations.

Unsurprisingly,
you haven't changed at all.

I'm so sorry, guys.

I can't drink alcohol,
so I'll substitute it with tea.

Here's a toast to you. Come on.

Come on, guys.

Cheers.

Cheers! Cheers!

It's been so long.

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

Come on, let's eat.

You know me.

We've been drinking for three rounds.

Remember, we must drink
until we are thoroughly drunk.

Li Pei.

The refinancing optimization policy
will soon be implemented.

Its regulatory arrangements

that were implemented last year

saw a direct polarization between
blue chip stocks and junk stocks.

As soon as this policy was launched,

the number of backdoor listings
started to decrease.

Don't you think that it's senseless?

Different trades but worlds apart.

I've learned much.

They're whispering to each other again.

Like I said just now,
whenever they get together,

things will surely get interesting.

Liang, enough of that nonsense.

Let's drink.

Why don't you ask Chen Maidong

to drink with you instead?

He hasn't even taken a sip yet.
What is this all about?

I can't drink with you
due to my profession.

Speaking of your profession,

I'm here today to tell you this.

Your dad's company
is currently our biggest supplier.

Indeed, his dad runs
a huge and successful business.

I'm so envious of you
for having a good father.

Here.

I really can't.

However, you chose to disregard

your family's fortune
by not inheriting your dad's business.

Everyone has their own ambition.

What about your ambition?

All I know is poverty stunts ambition.

That's you.

Chen Maidong. Listen to my advice.

Stop working with dead people.
There's no future in it.

Liang Wei, keep your mouth shut
if you're drunk.

Woman, keep quiet
when a man is speaking.

Liang.

I've had enough of this conversation.
Enough is enough.

Am I wrong?

She clearly lacks discipline. I don't
need her to teach me what to say.

Do you need me to teach you?

Come on, teach me.

Show me. Let me see what you have.

Come on.

Enough.

Liang, you're drunk.

Sit down. Waiter.

Bring us some peanuts
to let him sober up.

Dong.

Dong.

Dong!

Chen Maidong.

Wait for me, Chen Maidong.

Wait up.

Chen Maidong, I was wrong.

I was so wrong. Please forgive me.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I've said some hurtful things.

I shouldn't have said that to you.

Chen Maidong,
can you forgive me like a gentleman?

There were many gentlemen back there.

Go back.
Don't follow me, I'm just a rogue.

You finally paid attention to me.

Get angry at me all you want,

but don't give me the silent treatment.

No, don't run away.
My legs are very tired.

I didn't ask you to follow me.

But I want to follow you.

I'm already willing to lower my voice
and stifle my anger,

so stop making a fuss about nothing

and offer me a less
embarrassing way out.

That day, you could've told me nicely
if you were unwilling.

Why slander me with those words?

I'm a human being, I have dignity too.

I'm really sorry.

How can I make you cool off?

I can kneel.

Or you can slap me in the face.

Go on, slap me.

Stop it, Zhuang Jie.

I'm annoyed by your presence.

What do you mean?

Can you say that again?

Go on, say that again.

I said you're annoying.

Is this how you apologize to someone?

Whoever cares about you is a dog.

You're indeed a dog.

You're worse than a dog!

Niaoniao.

How's your sister doing?

Much better.

She fell asleep
after taking her medicine.

My mom said she was like this when
she was little due to poor immunity.

I feel less worried now.

You should've thought of
the consequences of your actions.

Did you make her angry?

I knew it. I was already angry at you.

If my brother
hadn't asked me to tell you

about my sister's condition,
I wouldn't care about you either.

I'm sorry.

I had no idea
her condition was that bad.

My sister has always been over-anxious,

but she manages to hide it well.

My brother and I knew a long time ago

that she's been forcing a smile lately.

Ever since her quarrel with Mom
on New Year's Eve,

she's never really recovered.

Forget it.

Dong, don't blame yourself too much.

She still has me and my brother.

I'll let you know again
if there's anything.

Thanks, Niaoniao.

You should get back inside.

What took you so long
just to lock the main gate?

So slow.

Mom.

We need to talk to you.

Mom, sit down here.

Talk about what?

It's late already.
Save it for tomorrow...

Mom.

I'm sure you can sense
that Jie is too anxious.

She got what she asked for,
isn't that right?

That temper of hers...

What's wrong with her temper?

Do you think she'd pass out
if she hadn't been holding things back?

I wonder who made her so angry.

She used to be madly in love
with Chen Maidong.

How could they end up like this
if no one's interfering?

Mom.

She's the most obedient
member of our family.

Since young, she has never been
disobedient to you.

You might not know this,

but she'd always remind us in secret

that although you've failed
to speak to us nicely,

you're still the most understanding one.

That's why we'd still listen to you.

When you said there's
a river ahead, we'd wade across it.

When you said there's
a ditch ahead, we'd go around it.

Because most of the time,
our parents will be right.

We can never have

the same amount of experience
and intuition as you.

But Mom, there's no guarantee that

you'll keep us safe
from harm our entire life, right?

Even when there's a net or a pit ahead,

if she insists on continuing that path,

just let her be

as she's rarely that persistent.

What are you looking at?

Are you happy now that it's my turn
to be lectured by them?

I won't interfere from now on.

The younger generations
will be fine on their own.

But here's the thing.

When we meet again in the future,

don't you dare say that I didn't
fulfill my responsibilities.

For a second,

I thought you were spraying pesticides.

I'm sure that's going
to make me sick eventually.

You are the largest vermin
in our family.

I'll disinfect here thoroughly

to protect your siblings.

Aren't you afraid?

I am your mother.

The virus should sit in awe of me.

Let me check.

The fever is gone.

I'm fine. I feel much better now.

I'm not that delicate.

Here.

Can this medicinal patch Xixia sent you

really treat nerve pains?

It won't treat it completely
but it's incredibly effective for me.

I've told you.

You should know more people

who care about your leg.

Did that person send you
the previous medicinal patches?

Who?

Chen Maidong.

Why can't you say his name?
Does calling his name hurt?

It's none of your business.

It's awkward for both of us

because I've never talked to you
about my boyfriend.

Probably.

My first reaction was
no one deserves you.

No guy should
dream about stealing my daughter.

I understand.

Tell me.

What is the difference

between Chen Maidong
and the arrogant one?

My love for Ji Tong was one-sided.

Towards Chen Maidong, it's real love.

Fine. I can't listen anymore.

What is that? You disgust me.

How is that disgusting?

Have you never been a young girl?

I've never felt what you feel.

I don't get it.

Look at my goosebumps.

Nonsense.

We must deal with reality
regardless of the kind of love.

Just face it.

I couldn't accept
how you take it one day at a time.

If both of you are sincere,
you should plan it well.

There are many
long-distance relationship couples.

Why can't you solve
your own relationship problem?

It's not about what I want now.

He is ignoring me.

He's acting arrogant now?

Madam Wu said the ratio of

men to women in nearby towns

at a suitable age for marriage
is eight to one according to statistics.

There are many men left over
with not many women.

Even the ugly ones can get married.

I'll go talk to him later.

Don't do that.

You might scare him.

Besides, love cannot be forced.

I'll try my best.

Just wait. I'll see how long
he can keep doing this.

(Great Man: Feeling better?)

(Zhuang Jie: extremely bad.)

(I'm suffering. No one cares.)

(I'm outside your house.)

You...

What are you doing?

I... I'm looking for you.

What are you wearing?

Where's your jacket?
I can't wait to see you.

Do you want to die from illness?

Sorry. I'm ugly and smelly.

I don't think so.

You are just a good liar.
You were so active.

Do you think I'm so sick

that you need to see me in my bed?

Anyway, you are too conceited.

You always make people
play into your hands.

That's because you care about me.

That's so corny. I can't take it.

I'm glad that you are fine.

I'm leaving then.

Sure. Go on.

You are letting me go easily this time.

Although I want to kiss you,

I'm afraid
I might spread the illness to you.

Whatever. I want you
to owe me a big one.

Nonsense. Being sick is torturing.

I can't bear to see you suffer.

Enough with the sweet talk.

I'll give you a chance
to give me an explanation.

Chen Maidong.

I sincerely apologize to you.

That day, I ran my mouth because...

I dare not remove my prosthetics
in front of any men.

I was scared.

Sorry.

I understand.

I forgive you.

Go back.

When you've recovered,
I'll date you again.

Stay for a while longer.

(In the vast galaxies
and among so many people, )

(knowing each other and falling in love
is such an incredible feeling.)

(Why is God so good at creating people?)

(It gives people joy, rage, worry,
love, lust, and hatred.)

(It makes people suffer
and extremely happy.)

(Zhuang Jie tickled Great Man)

(Look at my Moments!)

(Why is God so good at creating people? It
gives people joy, rage, worry, love, lust, )

(and hatred. It makes people suffer
and extremely happy.)

(Like)

(Great Man liked your post)

I'm so tired. Has Mom gone mad?

It's just 6 am.

I wonder if she's getting revenge.

Don't talk behind someone's back.

I don't do petty things like that.

I'm so tired.

Coming.

Don't worry.

The eggs are not broken.
The porridge is not burnt.

The side dishes are my signature.

Take what you want.

Jie, have you recovered?

I've completely recovered.

I felt refreshed
when I woke up this morning.

Doing nothing felt like a torture.

Jie. You are the only one
who has enough sleep.

Go back to sleep
after you finish eating.

I'll do all the work today.

All of you have suffered
because of my illness.

Mom, why do you look so swollen?

Did you not sleep well last night?

None of us could sleep well.

Last night, in the yard,

there were two rats
talking the whole night.

I was afraid
that the male rat might sneak in.

I kept looking for rat poison.

If you hear any rats from now on,

just continue sleeping.

Cats and rats go their separate ways.

They won't come inside the house
no matter what.

Stop it!

You kicked me.

Wait.

What do you want?

Are you not working today?

Why are you alone?

Where are your siblings?

They are sleeping.

Apparently, they couldn't sleep well

because there were
two noisy rats outside last night.

Your whole family are good listeners.

You are right.

It's tough being a rat recently.

Stop standing here.
You are disturbing my work.

Is your mother not around as well?

I'm letting her take a break.

She is probably cleaning the house.

Go inside.
I'll manage the stall for you.

Can you do it?

Am I worse than
the two rats at your home?

Don't underestimate me.

One of them is pretty
and the other is good at shouting.

Sorry. I'm good at both.

Go in. It's cold out here.

Wait. What is this?

Zhuang Jie, let's have another date.

A proper and grand date.

Sure.

This time, it will be successful.

(Recently, cold air will
continue to move south.)

(Cold wave warnings
have been issued.)

(Temperatures in many areas
are decreasing.)

(Our area will experience a flash freeze
that hasn't been seen for decades)

(Experts say that the low temperature)

(will continue for a week.
It'll be damp.)

(The public is advised to
keep themselves warm when going out.)

How do you make this 10,000 times

better than us
with the same ingredients?

It's our first proper date after all.

I must use some of my unique skills.

Teach me.

No need.

I'll make it for you if you want.

Chen Maidong,
you are good at scheming.

You use this method
so I can't leave you.

What's wrong with that?

Everything needs to be managed.

I'm scheming so you know that.

I overestimated you previously.

I thought you were the type
to contribute silently.

That's a fool.

From now on, I will tell you

about everything I do for you.

I'll exaggerate everything.

Otherwise, someone ungrateful like you
won't remember anything in the future.

I agree.

I completely agree with this point.

I was so touched after reading
"Letter from an Unknown Woman"

when I was young.

However, I knew I couldn't do it.

Sacrificing your whole life
for love is too stupid.

One can only know how to love others

when he knows how to love himself first.

Moreover, even family ties bound
by blood are unreliable.

Gambling your life with love

is a burden for both people.

Both of us are so tacky.

Modern people are smart.
They are usually calculative.

It's not good as well.

They made love appear
to not be worth mentioning.

True love won't depreciate
no matter what.

Lovers, friends,
and beloved are just names.

The term I like most is sweetheart.

It's called sweetheart
in Western countries.

The brain is not required in love.

You just need your heart.

People who work in sales
like you are good at talking.

Come here.

I dare not.

Why?

I have a trauma.

Cut the nonsense.

Are you coming or not?

No. What will you do?

You won't come to me?

I'll go to you.

I'll say this first.

No matter what you do tonight,

I won't be fooled again.

Fine.

Let me think about what I can do.

You better be good.

If you do it again,

something bad might happen to me.

Zhuang Jie.

What?

It's snowing.

It's true.

It's actually snowing.

Zhuang Jie,

you are not ready.

I can wait.

What?

Are you missing me so soon?

Chen Maidong,

I'm not a frivolous person.

I know.

When I was in high school,

a matchmaker came to my house.

The guy had polio, but he was kind.

The matchmaker
asked my mother to be realistic.

She said a girl like me
shouldn't study too much.

Learning a life skill
and living a normal life

was better than anything.

I was almost persuaded back then.

However, my mother
scolded the matchmaker

and told me studying was the only thing

that could help change my fate.

It's as if everyone has agreed

that a girl like me should deserve

someone with a physical disability.

That's the reality.

However, my mother taught me

to teach reality a lesson.

If I am excellent enough,
my disability is no longer a problem.

So, I live harder than anyone else.

I want to take control of everything.

I want to choose someone

instead of
letting someone else choose me.

I thought I did it.

When I went to university,
I had a boyfriend.

He was good in all aspects.

However,

when we wanted to be intimate
for the first time,

he was obviously shocked by my leg.

When I first did
the amputation surgery,

my family was poor.

I was discharged
before my wounds were healed.

The socket didn't fit as well.

My wound was infected
and I had a high fever. I almost died.

So, the stump looked hideous.

Since that day,

I never showed anyone my prosthetic.

So, Chen Maidong,

I was only pretending in front of you.

I've never done
anything intimate with anyone else.

It's nothing humiliating.

After I started my current job,
I never got close to anyone.

Zhuang Jie, I've thought it through.

Friends, lovers, or sweetheart.

Anything is fine by me.

As long as we can be together,

I can be with you forever.

Because of you,

I can do it.

Chen Maidong,

do you

want to come back?
