01x24 - Episode 24

[bunniefuu]

Ruan, get up. Breakfast's ready.

Get up. Come eat.

Ruan, get up.

Get up. Breakfast's ready.

Didn't sleep well? Go wash up.

You up?

Go wash up and eat.

What's wrong?

Don't cry.

There's somewhere I want to take you.

[Episode 24]
[Landing on My Heart]

Actually, what you wore this morning
was quite nice.

That won't do.
It wasn't serious or formal enough.

Is it up ahead?

Yeah.

[Grave of Ruan Zheng Feng]

Dad. We're here to see you.
This is my boyfriend, Fu Ming Yu.

Hello, Uncle Ruan.
More precisely, I'm Si Xian's fiancé.

Unofficial fiancé.

Judging from his appearance, Uncle
Ruan doesn't seem like a Chinese teacher.

He served in the military before.

He was in the army?

Then what kind of person was he?

He was really warm-hearted.

Everyone in the neighborhood knew
how good-tempered he was.

Ever since I can remember,
I never saw him and my mom argue.

And he was an amazing cook.

My mom loved his Sweet-and-Sour Pork Ribs.

Even though his salary wasn't high,
we had ribs every Friday.

I can still remember that smell.

So Uncle really doted on you and your mom.

They say daughters are
closer to their dads. That's true.

But you know, in every family, parents
play "the good cop and the bad cop."

Was Auntie Dong the "bad cop"?

I used to think

my mom dumped my dad for money
and cheated on him.

But recently I realized
that man was actually her agent.

My dad was really kind.

He used to tutor the neighborhood kids.

A little troublemaker
broke my mom's plaster statue,

but he didn't say anything

because he felt he owed the neighbors

for helping out
during his years teaching in rural areas.

Then one day a kid tore
up my mom's painting.

My dad told her not to be angry.

"Kids are like that,
but you can paint a new one."

But that was actually the last straw.

Maybe that's when my mom realized

my dad only treated her with
the kindness you'd give a family member.

He could never understand her soul.

Yeah.

As kids, it's easy to see things
from your dad's side.

But what about your mother?

Who really understood her?

I only figured that out looking back.

But back then, how could I have understood?

Even though my dad told me
not to talk to my mom like that,

I still said so many hurtful things to her.

My dad loved my mom most.

Maybe those words hurt him too.

Then schedule everything for tomorrow.

I'm hanging up.

If you're busy, go ahead and do your work.

None of it matters.
There's somewhere I want to take you.

Come on.

Where is this?

The back entrance of an art gallery.

What are we doing here?

We're going to turn W.T. Airport
into an art landmark,

so I brought you here to pick some pieces.

Did you ever fantasize as a kid

about being locked inside
a department store after it closed?

- Can't say I did.
- I did.

And then I'd become the owner,

and eat every snack
my mom wouldn't let me have.

This one's interesting.

It's so expensive!

Oh, my.

Why didn't I inherit
any of my mom's artistic genes?

If I'd gone into art,
I'd probably be financially free by now.

Not every artist's
work sells for this price.

A lot of artists work incredibly hard
for most of their lives,

yet their work may never be accepted
by the world.

Some go abroad to study,

but most of them end up
living in basements and waiting tables.

True. Nothing comes
easy in any line of work.

Why do these paintings all
have a section left uncolored?

How about you give me one, and
I'll take it home and color it in for fun.

The artist would probably blow a fuse
if they heard that.

I don't think so.

Or, you can ask the artist herself.

Who?

When Ming Yu called me,
I didn't know you'd be here today.

This afternoon, I took him to see Dad.

Ruan,

I know you still hold it against me

for leaving your father and you.

Actually,

there were plenty of times
I wanted to sit down and explain,

but then I thought,

I made that choice back then,

so explaining wouldn't change anything.

I...

I know you've had a
hard time all these years

and been through a lot,

and all I could do was
watch from a distance

and say sorry to you
over and over in my head.

I'm sorry.

I don't know either.

I don't know how I got through it all.

Since the day you left,

I've missed you more every day.

The more I missed you, the weaker I got.

The more I hated you, the tougher I got.

I kept thinking,

why can't I be like other kids
and see my mom every day?

But then again,

maybe that's exactly
what made me this strong.

Mom, don't feel guilty anymore.

I've grown up.

Look.

I've got the career I wanted,
and I've got someone who loves me.

So, bravely be yourself.

Thank you, my dear. Thank you.

Mom.

I'll walk you home and stop by
the office to get you some time off.

But you can go now.

Are you eager to get rid of me?

I'd rather walk you home before I leave.
Otherwise, I won't feel right.

Then leave me here.

Are you alright?

So this is how you win over your
business partners one by one?

I don't have to try this hard with them.

I feel like you came back with an upgrade.

Before, I was in it for your handsome face.

Now I'm actually catching feelings?

That's not good.

You think you got a good deal?

Not really.

You were fast-moving goods before.

I accepted that your
looks would depreciate.

But now you're emotional support,
and that comes with a premium.

If one day you stop selling to me,
I won't be able to handle it.

Stop right there. Ms. Ruan,
stop objectifying your boyfriend.

My sense of security
seems to be slipping away.

Could it be because the security
at the old house is bad?

Want to move back to Mingchen Residences?

No. I haven't had enough of living here.

Besides, I bought this
place with my own money.

It's my old family home.

It's the safest place, okay?

I'm going in. You should go.

Fu Ming Yu?

Why is it you again?

Does it still hurt?

This side.

Still hurt?

What do you think?

Serves you right for breaking in
with bad intentions.

I went easy on you.

You should be glad
I didn't have anything handy,

or that handsome face would've been wasted.

Bad intentions? Me?

Didn't you give me the key?

Besides, it's so windy tonight.

I saw you didn't even close the window,
and your blanket wasn't even on properly.

What if you catch a cold?

Why are you back?

I thought you went to the office.

I did.

Bai Yang booked a flight for tomorrow.
I'm going on a business trip.

You're leaving tomorrow?

You mean you want me to get out right now?

I didn't say that.

I wish you could stay for a few more days.

Really? You really mean that?

Then tell me, what are
you thinking right now?

Right now I'm thinking about
how to make a move on you.

What's this supposed to mean?

A slap and a sweet treat.

Just one?

Then how many do you want?

Then I'll have to do the math.

[Ma'ao]

I'm in Ma'ao. What are you up to?

Just finished simulator training.

Sure enough, you left,
and they lifted my grounding.

If nothing goes wrong, after refresher
training ends and I get a medical check,

I can fly again.

Congratulations in advance, "Captain" Ruan.

We haven't seen each other in years.
Let's drink until we drop!

- Come on, cheers!
- Cheers!

How about we find a KTV and sing?

- Sure!
- I know a pretty good KTV nearby.

Just around the corner.
Let's go for another round later.

What do you say? Compete?

Sure. How about we play
some more at KTV later?

I'll pass. You guys go ahead.

Hello?

Hello? You home yet?

I just got home.

How come you're so late tonight?

College reunion tonight.

How are you? Is your cold better?

I'm okay. Bai Yang's got it worse.

Even if it's not serious,
you should still take medicine.

You mentioned the reunion.

Did that senior who treated you to dinner
after the recruitment come?

- Never mind.
- He did.

Wait.

How did you know
the one who treated me was Xie Yu?

My head is aching. I'm going to rest.

Good night.

Wait, why did I hesitate just now?

Doesn't that make it harder to explain?

Fu Ming Yu, what kind of question was that?

Was he jealous?

He must be jealous.

Mr. Fu, still up?

Yes.

By the way, we rented the house
across from Ruan's.

You don't need to worry about her safety.

I'm going to rest.

Is your cold any better?

Much better.

I just got back from getting fluids.

How about you? Want some medicine?
Don't want to get you sick.

I'm fine. I'm in good health.

I get it. Ruan is your medicine.

Right, you're always asking why I wear
a different color of socks every week?

Because life is colorful.

I wish you two happiness. Good night.

You An, how's it going?
Want me to come in and help?

Just sit, Mom.
I have two people here helping me.

- Okay.
- What's the rush?

Come and sit for a while. Have some water.

Thanks.

How is it?

Not bad. Looks good.

I think so too.

But the train is really heavy.

Walking in this feels like cardio.

Mom, what do you think?

Beautiful. Really beautiful.

Mom, I'm not even married yet.

- It's just a fitting.
- I know.

Something's come over me.

Come on, you two.
Getting all sentimental already?

This is the first one.
There are plenty more to try.

Are you going to cry
after every single one?

I keep feeling like this is all a dream.

You two were just little girls,
and now you're getting married?

Of course I don't want you to end up alone.

I want to see you marry the right person.

Mom, Yan An's getting
more driven these days.

I trained him. He keeps getting better.

I know.

Yan An is a good boy.

But he's still not mature enough.

You need to go into
this with your eyes open.

You'll have to walk with him as he grows.

I have a fever.

Hello? Why aren't you
replying to my messages?

Because I'm using my hands. Can't type.

Ruan Si Xian, I have a fever.

Open the door.

- What?
- Did the fever make you go deaf?

Open the door. I'm on roaming. Hanging up.

What's with that attitude?

"Roaming"? "Open the door"?

Open the door!

Are you hiding some woman in there?

I'll give you five seconds.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Aren't you overjoyed?

Aren't you thrilled?
Aren't you happy and surprised?

You're not hiding a
woman in there, are you?

Hello, your ice cream is ready.

Okay, thanks.

Black truffle chocolate.

Yes, I want that one too.

Here you go. Sorry for the wait.

See which one you like.

This is my favorite.
Black truffle chocolate flavor.

But I'll let you have the first bite.

Really?

I must say, it's not that sweet.

Fu Ming Yu, you're really over your fever.

You almost finished my
whole scoop in one bite.

Look at you.
Where's the domineering vice president now?

There's still half left.

Not enough to fill a hollow tooth.

You're so annoying.

Here. It's all yours.

- Okay.
- Let's go to that shop.

Buy more.

Good.

It's really beautiful.

You've said that a lot already.

Not enough. Once in a lifetime.
I want to remember this moment forever.

Then how about we make this moment
even more romantic?

- How about it?
- You did this?

It's a bit strange.

Is it?

Well, fate can be a
strange thing sometimes.

But it's also wonderful.

We seem to have a special connection
with Ma'ao.

We met on a flight to Ma'ao.

Though back then I was being an idiot.

We've been through so much together,
and you've brought me so many surprises.

I have nothing else to repay you,
so I'm going to offer myself to you.

I don't know if I'd have the honor of
spending the rest of my life with Ms. Ruan.

Why are you just smiling
and not saying anything?

I'm seriously proposing to you.

I know. But... can you get up?

Not until you say yes.

I want to finish my F7 exam first.

With too much on my mind,
I'm afraid I'll get distracted.

So what you're saying
is I've been rejected?

No. It means you passed the assessment,

but you still have to go home
and wait for the notice.

Go home and wait for the notice?
What does that mean?

Bet you didn't see that coming, Fu Ming Yu.

My revenge has finally come full circle.

Well played, Ruan Si Xian.

Should I write a letter
too, to plead my case?

Don't rush. Look at me.
Sooner or later, I'll become a captain.

And you? Sooner or later,
you'll become my husband.

But you still need to work a little harder.

Being rejected really hurts.

You have to learn to accept it.

Uncertainty is the norm in life.

As expected of "Captain" Ruan.

How's it going? Tired?

Not many shifts lately. Not so tired.

How was your flight today?

Pretty good. Everything went well.
Weather's been nice too.

Everyone, check-in is just up ahead.

It's about a minute's walk.

And in about 10 minutes,
the screen over there will start the movie.

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

[The Echos World Tour - Jiang City]

Check your hairpins.

Tuck in any stray hairs later.

Is everyone here feeling unwell?

No.

It's probably a long shot.

Indeed. We have to get well prepared.

Good luck.

Ruan Si Xian, you've got this.

Hello?

Is anyone out there? The door won't open.

Hello? Anyone?

"Captain" Ruan? Is that you?

Fu Ming Yu?

Listen up in there. You're surrounded.

What are you doing? Let me out.

Don't bother resisting.

You've finished your exam
to move up from F6 to F7.

Time to fulfill your promise.

The results aren't out yet.

The results don't matter.
You'll pass for sure.

Just let me out, okay?

Say yes to my proposal first.

Are you sure you want the smell
of our proposal memory to be a restroom?

I never cared about the smell.

What I care about is
whether you'll say yes.

"Captain" Ruan?

Ruan?

I'm coming in then.

What, overwhelmed by the smell?

Get out! This is the ladies' restroom.

What are you doing?

So, will you say yes?

Are you sure you want to do it here?

Absolutely. Very sure.

Fine. I'll say yes.

Then can I put it on you?

It's beautiful.

I wonder if it's sturdy enough
to hit someone with.

What do you mean?

Just wanted to see if it's sturdy enough
to hit someone with.

Ruan Si Xian!

Honey, why do we have to take this flight?

This is the most efficient route I
could find, and it's the only flight left.

Just bear with it.

But they are doing
a meteor shower wedding sh**t.

Why are we going so early?

Taking the next flight would have been
so much easier.

I'm their photographer.

If I'm not there,
who's sh**ting their wedding photos?

Get some sleep.
You'll feel better once you're asleep.
