=Episode 5= (A Surprise Love Rival)

Lu Fangqi, come in. Over.

Come in. Over.

Jin Shichuan!

Jin Shichuan!

What are you doing here?

I'm here to save you. Hurry!

(Calling Captain Jin.)

(The aerial ladder truck is in place.)

Got it. Balcony on the fourth floor.

We'll get onto the ladder from here.

Are you scared?

No. So long as you're here,

I'm not scared of anything.

Get ready.

♪I love you, I miss you, I need you♪

♪A person chasing the light has to stop some time♪

♪Embracing, the heart beating fast, I continue waiting♪

♪Behind you♪

♪I am illuminated by your gaze♪

♪I love you, I miss you, I need you♪

♪Memory forgot that time has never gone too far♪

♪The reason for guarding remains to be you♪

Are you okay?

I'm good. Very good.

Couldn't be any better.

Captain Jin.

You two...

Looks like you two are fine.

The fire is under control.

It didn't spread to the next block.

We also found Erhu.

Where?

Look at you.

Goodness.

The puppy is hungry.

Look, it must be hungry.

Check over there.

Which one of you is blind

and knocked my car?

He parked his car on the emergency route

and now he's blaming us?

Unbelievable.

Get out here. Get down.

I said, get out here.

Sir.

Your car

was parked at the emergency route.

That's illegal.

We couldn't get a hold of you at the time,

and it was an emergency, so...

What do you mean emergency?

Don't move. Don't you move!

Step aside!

What are you guys doing?

You bunch of firemen.

I dare you to bully me,

a helpless citizen.

Go ahead and beat me up.

I'm not scared.

I have my rights.

No one is leaving this place if I don't get compensated.

And you...

What's happening? What are you people doing?

Firemen are beating people up!

Take photos.

Step back.

The firemen are beating people up.

I knew you wouldn't dare touch me.

Get lost.

Sir.

If you're not happy

with us firemen,

you could call 12345

to make a complaint.

What 12345?

I don't know what 12345 is.

They don't dare to beat you up? Then I will.

You dare hit me, you crazy woman!

Are you all right?

Don't you touch me.

I'll report you.

I'll make you all lose your jobs.

Just try me.

People are all taking pictures.

See that?

This is how firemen act.

Zhou, did you catch that?

Yes, the whole thing.

What are you recording? Delete it!

The Fire Services Act states that

no unit or person

may use, seal

or block an emergency route.

Firefighters have no obligation to compensate you.

You're deliberately picking a fight.

We've caught your antics

on tape.

If you report this,

you'll be the one detained.

I dare you to threaten my men.

If you don't walk away now,

the police will be here.

Fine.

You win.

I...

I won't quarrel with you today.

Are you alright? Are you hurt?

No, I'm fine.

Are you okay?

- Thanks, Ms. Xu. - Thanks, Ms. Xu.

Thanks, Ms. Xu!

Move out.

Thanks, Ms. Xu.

All hail Ms. Xu!

What's wrong? Is your back hurting again?

I'm okay. Just the usual.

Captain Jin.

An old problem.

Even so, you should get it checked.

Take the day off tomorrow.

Get all the necessary check-ups done.

Aren't you hurt too, Captain Jin?

Why don't you go with me?

Yeah, your shoulder.

I'm fine. Help him.

Let's go.

Slowly.

Bring the footage back first.

Your shoulder is injured.

I'll go to the hospital with you.

I'm fine.

No, right here.

You're hurt here.

Who allowed you to go into the fire?

How did you

get your hands on the fire suit?

Do you know how dangerous it is

if your oxygen tank

was not full?

I checked it.

The tank

had more than 25 MPa.

It was all good.

What if you got burned?

Did you think about that?

I told you.

I did search and rescue training.

I participated in similar drills.

I didn't do it on a whim.

Besides,

all the stuff I learned over the years

was because of you.

In order to get closer to you,

I became a dog trainer.

And I joined the civilian rescue team.

I know I shouldn't have done it.

But,

don't you think

that being able to use what I've learned

to save you from the fire

is all destined?

I don't need you to save me.

What you did

was against the rule.

There cannot be a next time.

I cannot be worrying about you

when I'm on a rescue mission.

You're worried about me?

You're worried about me.

You said you were worried about me.

Jin Shichuan, you care about me.

I can't talk to you.

You can do it, Ms. Xu!

Go get him!

(Anti-chemical decontamination vehicle)

Go, Ms. Xu!

Did you not hear me?

I said stop following me.

My feet made me follow me.

I can't control them.

What do you want?

I want to follow you and be with you.

Xu Lai.

I'm thankful

for what you've done.

- But... - Don't worry.

These are all

done willingly by me.

You need not feel pressured.

Also, I'm not going

to guilt trip you with my feelings.

What I want

is for you to be attracted to me,

and not feel grateful or touched.

Xu Lai.

Huo, why are you still here?

I was worried about you

being here alone.

So I stayed to wait.

I thought you might need a ride.

Perfect. He's injured.

Take us to the hospital.

No need.

I can go by myself.

No, I'm going with you.

I can manage alone.

No!

It's not easy to get a ride here.

I'll drive you guys there.

Thanks. Let's go.

Does it hurt?

No.

Xu Lai.

You haven't introduced us.

Who is he?

I almost forgot.

He is the captain of Huaigang Fire Department

1st Brigade.

The fireman who saved me years ago.

Jin Shichuan.

Hello.

Hello.

(Emergency)

Stop following me.

He's waiting for you.

Xu Lai.

Let me take you home.

It's okay. I have something to do.

Is it

related to Captain Jin?

So you found him.

Why didn't you tell me?

How far along is your relationship?

There's no relationship yet.

He turned me down.

I was going

to wait for him to say yes

before informing you guys.

Since he already rejected you,

you should give up on him.

Xu Lai, actually I...

How could I?

I've been looking for him for so long.

Now I finally met him.

How can I give up?

Enough talking. Bye.

Miss.

Can you be more gentle?

I will.

Are you going to take the shot or not?

Yes.

No, wait.

I'm not ready.

Let me take a breath.

Okay, stop fidgeting.

I wouldn't want to poke wrongly.

A grownup like you is scared of injections?

It's you.

Do you remember me?

The fireman

who had a blind date with you

at the restaurant.

Aren't you getting an injection?

Yes, I am.

See,

we are acquaintances.

Right?

Fancy meeting you here.

It must be fate.

Tell the nurse.

Ask her to be

more gentle.

I'm a doctor.

I don't give injections.

Long time no see.

How have you been?

Not too bad.

You've been avoiding me

since that incident.

I tried to look for you.

Your work address, house address,

even your phone number had been changed.

A friendly reminder.

You scared me!

That woman employs cruel tactics.

She's heartless.

A formidable opponent.

Mind your own business.

I'll go pay my bill then.

I know

it had a huge impact on you.

I'm sorry.

I accept

that you hate me.

But I'm still hoping

you'd give me a chance

to make it up to you.

I don't want to talk about

what happened before.

And I've told you.

I won't forgive you.

Hold it.

Why are you here again?

There are so many scars on your back.

Do they hurt?

Let me help you.

No, I can do it myself.

I'll help you.

I'll do it myself.

I'll help you.

Give it to me. I'll do it.

I'll help you.

I can do it myself.

Cap...

I'll leave.

Get back here.

Take her away.

Okay.

I haven't put on the shirt for you.

Go.

What a weirdo.

Captain's order.

I can't say no.

Lu Fangqi.

Do me a favor.

What?

From what

I've observed with Jin Shichuan,

I doubt he's ever been in a relationship.

I need to find out

what exactly he and the doctor's connection is.

But it's a little hard

if I were to do it myself.

So the only suitable candidate

is you.

Me?

No. No can do.

That doctor and I don't get along.

We're nemeses.

Lu Fangqi.

Please help me out.

I'm not suitable.

I'll treat you to a nice meal.

Okay?

Get this straight.

If one day

I really become

your sister-in-law,

- then I... - Fine.

I'll do it.

What's up with you today?

Something happened at work?

You're drinking like there's no tomorrow.

I met him.

Who?

Jin Shichuan.

I knew you'd overthink it.

So I kept it from you.

But don't worry.

Jin Shichuan is 100 percent

not interested in Xu Lai.

But Xu Lai is serious about him.

See?

I told you before

to confess your feelings but you didn't.

Shame on me for being too confident.

At first, I thought

I'd find a good time

after Xu Lai returned from overseas

to tell her my feelings.

But today,

when I saw the way Xu Lai looked at him,

I knew it was game over for me.

Who would've thought

that brief encounter from ten years ago

could make Xu Lai so invested.

You know it yourself.

It's been ten years.

Can it survive on memories alone?

Once she hits a dead end,

she'll naturally give up.

If I hadn't

missed the bus back then...

If I had been able

to go to her in time...

If I had been the one to save Xu Lai

and not Jin Shichuan...

Could things

have been different then?

Sir, how long will this traffic take?

Who can say?

It could take the whole night.

(Sorry.)

(The number you have dialed is not...)

I'll get off here.

Okay.

(Dong'ao Community Park)

(We interrupt the program with breaking news.)

(According to the National Center)

(of Seismology,)

(this morning)

(at 00:30:18 a.m.)

(a 7.8 earthquake happened)

(in Huining, Di'an Province.)

(The focal depth is 20 kilometers.)

(The earthquake was clearly felt in areas)

(around Huining.)

(Esteemed passengers.)

(All buses)

(heading to Huining will be halted)

(for the time being.)

(We apologize for)

(any inconveniences caused.)

(We will continue to keep you updated)

(with news of the earthquake.)

Hello, Han Fang.

(It's dangerous in Huining right now.)

(Are you really going there?)

It's because it's dangerous

that I must go.

Xu Lai is there.

I have to make sure she's safe.

Got to go.

Drive, please.

Where to?

Huining.

Don't you know what happened?

Everyone's trying to leave.

But you're trying to get in?

Sir.

I'm going there to look

for someone important.

Sorry. Can't do it.

The situation there is bad.

The roads have been sealed.

Is there any other way?

I can pay you more, sir.

However much you want.

It's not about money.

You're asking me to put my life at risk.

Is this enough?

Please take me there.

(China Red Cross Relief Supplies)

Xu Lai!

Huo Yanzong.

How did you know I am here?

Xu Lai.

I finally found you.

I won't let you get hurt again.

I'm never leaving you.

In the past,

I treated her like a little sister.

Until that earthquake happened.

I realized then

how scared I was of losing her.

So what are you going to do?

Are you giving up?

I can lose everything

I have right now.

But not Xu Lai.

I'll never let anyone

take her from me.

Chef.

Captain Jin, I'm so sorry.

I just started working here.

I'm still familiarizing.

The dishes aren't ready.

It's not all on you.

We never know when we'd get dispatched.

Yes, right. It will be ready soon.

No need to apologize.

I'll help cook, okay?

You help too.

Captain Jin is cooking!

Where's the knife?

Here.

Time to eat!

Thanks, Captain Jin!

Thanks, Captain Jin.

Cabbage.

Thanks, bro.

Thanks.

Steamed buns.

Delicious.

Gosh.

It's so good.

- So good. - Incredible!

The best!

This is what I'm talking about.

The carrots.

This is what I'm talking about.

(Inpatient Department)

Ouch.

My leg hurts.

How is it?

Is your eye feeling okay?

It's a goner.

Ouch.

I can't.

What's wrong?

My leg hurts.

Isn't your old injury on the back?

What happened to your leg?

My back.

My back.

It hurts even worse.

I'm done for.

I'll get you another shot

later then.

No need.

I just want it checked again.

Okay.

I'll arrange for an X-ray.

We'll see

aside from your ligament,

if there's anything wrong with the bones.

Okay.

Thanks, doctor.

I'll do as you say.

Good work.

The pharmacy is on the first floor.

Thanks.

Can we chat?

Chat about what?

I'd like to chat with you

about Doctor Zang.

How is she like?

Doctor Zang?

Doctor Zang is famous at the hospital

for her amazing surgical skills.

Great techniques, professional.

Very talented.

Any other traits

outside of work?

Outside of work?

She's quite the drinker.

At our last gathering,

she out drank

all the male doctors

in the department.

Is being a good drinker a trait?

Does she have something

like a boyfriend

or an ex-boyfriend?

Boyfriend?

Doctor Zang just transferred here.

I've not seen

anyone like a boyfriend.

But,

I heard that her former partner

was a fireman.

He won

first place in the National

Fire Fighting Competition.

Captain Jin?

Thank you.

Captain Jin.

Xiaohan.

Give me the records for bed 15.

Thanks.

Doctor Zang.

Congrats.

Congrats for what?

Is that fireman

going after you?

No need to be shy.

We've all heard.

He's been asking about you all over the hospital.

Our dear Captain Jin

has such a terrible taste.

He's interested in a tigress?

Shocking.

Nice.

Get out of the hospital now.

I think my back pain just got worse.

My leg feels numb now. Look.

I can't feel anything.

Don't feel anything?

How about this?

You're doing it too hard.

Do you want to test the other leg?

No, thanks.

You have three seconds.

If you don't leave,

I'll show you

what not feeling anything truly is.

Hey, wait.

Three.

Let me explain.

Two.

I'm the patient.

One.

I want this.

Basil chicken and garlic pasta,

with a grilled chicken thigh.

And this too.

That's enough.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Why are you out wearing that?

I just left

the hospital.

So you got

kicked out

by that Doctor Zang?

If I didn't leave,

my life would be in danger.

So,

did you find anything?

I asked everyone I could

in the hospital.

I learned that she's a workaholic.

Apart from work, it's still work.

She comes and goes by herself.

Very bland.

Stop. Just get to the point.

Her ex-boyfriend

was a fireman.

And he won first place

in the National Fire Fighting Competition.

A fireman?

Fire Fighting Competition?

Then...

That means it's Jin Shichuan.

No.

No.

Well, yeah.

It's true

that not many fire fighters

were champions

in the national competition.

I think,

Zang Qiu could very well be

Captain Jin's ex-girlfriend.

No way.

Moreover,

his feelings have not abated.

Captain Jin said it before

that Zang Qiu hates him.

People say the stronger you hate,

the stronger you love.

It's likely to be true.

Enough.

Eat your food.

I'll eat then.

Doctor Zang Qiu.

She can't

possibly be Jin Shichuan's ex, right?

Could it really be like what

Lu Fangqi said?

They still have feelings for each other?

Whatever.

Even if she's the ex,

that's in the past now.

Only those who have failed before know

how to cherish the right one.

What she had

was Jin Shichuan's past.

What I have

is Jin Shichuan's future.

Based on this alone, I've won.

I should focus

on Jin Shichuan instead.

I'm sure

I can make Jin Shichuan mine.

Captain Jin.

Can we chat?

What is it?

You came to talk right after your hospital visit.

I got chased out

from the hospital.

So I wanted to find some comfort

from you.

Who chased you out?

Who else but that fierce Doctor Zang.

Captain Jin.

Did you know

Doctor Zang from before?

I feel like she's particularly harsh on you.

Did you two

have some sort

of history?

It's almost lights out.

Go and sleep.

The lights are still on.

Your back is hurt, right?

Go and lie down.

I'll go sleep then.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

(Did you two)

(have some sort)

(of history?)

I told you I'm fine.

No, it might get infected.

You need a shot.

Shichuan.

Go outside and wait.

Shut the door.

Hello.

Hi.

Take a seat.

What's happened?

Nothing.

Just a scratch on my leg.

Where? Show me.

Right here.

Take off your pants.

I'll take a look over there.

Why haven't you changed yet?

I've done

your discharge procedure.

Get changed.

Wait a minute.

For what?

Morning.

Good morning.

I heard you're getting discharged today.

This is already the second time

I met you in the hospital.

I hope there won't be a third.

Do you dislike me so much?

It's not that.

I mean...

I hope that you'll be healthy and safe,

and not get hurt again.

Then you won't have to come to the hospital again.

This is for you.

Think of it as a farewell gift.

Thanks.

I like it.

Then...

Well.

I... I'll get going.

Wait. Hold on.

What is it?

But I

would still like

to see you more often.

But not

as a doctor and patient.

Can I?

(Civil Affairs Bureau Marriage Registration Office)

Congrats.

- We're married. - We're married!

Shichuan.

Take a photo of us.

Okay.

How should we pose?

I'll carry you.

Come on.

We are married!

Okay. Look here.

Fang Huai, look here.

Dear.

Dear.

Dear.

Dear.

Are you dizzy?

Shichuan.

What's the matter?

It's nothing.

Jealous?

Kid.

You'll find your happiness too.

Dear.

He's like the witness

to our relationship.

Why not ask him

to take a picture with us?

Sure.

Come on. Don't just stand there.

Ready.

Wait!

Here goes.

Fang Huai, let's go.

Retreat!

Everyone, get out, now!
