♪There’s no need to wander anymore♪ [Memory of Encaustic Tile] [Adapted from Beifeng Sanbaili’s original novel “Memory of Encaustic Tile”] [Episode 29] [You Caught Me Off Guard with Your Choice] It’s getting late. I haven’t packed for tomorrow’s trip yet. Let’s go back. Let’s go. Are you stretching your neck? Mr. Shao. I wonder
When Xue will arrive. 8:45 in the evening. You know everything. Mr. Shao. Have you thought about who you want Xue to marry? I’ve never… I never really thought about who she will marry. But I think someone like you is not bad. Really? You silly boy. Do you think I will joke around
With my own daughter? Mr. Zheng Jr. Someone is looking for you. Coming. I’ll be going there first. Go. Can’t you see me? What’s that expression? So that’s your reaction after all this time apart? Come out again. Fine. Can’t you see me? Zhang Qi. I missed you! That’s more like it.
I missed you too. Not bad. You finally look decent. You too. Let’s go. To your place. Please come in. Not bad at all. You already have a place of your own. Why did you come back this time? I’m going to take the postgraduate admission test soon. I came back to visit everyone.
It’s lonely to be here alone. Are you still single? What’s wrong with being single? Why don’t you find a girlfriend? No one is good enough for me perhaps. You’re still the same. You still like to run that mouth of yours. Are you planning to ask Xue to move in with you?
I haven’t told her yet. How do you plan to tell her? Just tell her directly. How can you do that? Girls always want something special. If you simply do it, there will be arguments in the future. Did you study crosstalk abroad? Who am I? The friend of all women. Just trust me.
Why are you staring at me? You have never been in a relationship before. How did you get all this experience? If you don’t believe me, ask Lin Shiyin. She had many relationships. You want Xue to move in with you? Don’t you know… Don’t I know what? Nothing.
How do you want me to help you? Just tell me whether Xue likes to do things in a special way. No. That’s great. But that doesn’t mean you don’t need to do it. It’s something real. It will become memories that you look back to in the future.
Zhang Qi is really the friend of all women. Do you know what kind of special things Xue likes? You’ve asked the right person. When I was young, I asked Xue a question about whether she wants her lover to appear riding the rainbow clouds or come by helicopter.
What do you think her answer was? Riding a broomstick. She also wants the Nimbus 2000. Don’t doubt it. I’m sure you know how much she loves Harry Potter. Keep going. So, I have a perfect idea. [Liuli Hutong Residents’ Committee] Are you willing to come home with me? Our home. Yes. Isn’t it romantic?
Can you change to something else? Do you want to win her heart? You just have to agree to it. I’ll help you with the costume, makeup, and props. I have friends in the production crew. Are you texting Sunian? Why didn’t he pick you up today? He said he is busy. Check everything.
Safety first. Don’t worry. It’s definitely safe. Okay. Are you ready, Harry Potter? Don’t worry. Sunian. Do you want to give it a try? There’s no need. You better reconsider it. It’s over if your face hits the ground. I’m confident in my abilities. She’s on her way here. Okay. Everyone! The female lead
Will arrive in 30 minutes. Stay focused! This is related to their happiness. It’s all down to this! Let’s go. Fly, Harry Potter! Ready! Pull! Xue. How do you feel about the interview? I’m not sure. You shouldn’t worry about giving me a blow. Although I failed to join Huanyu, there are other companies
That want to hire me too. Their benefits are not bad. You have decided to go abroad? Yes. Doing that will make me closer to her so I’ll have a better chance. You haven’t given up after all these years? Think about it. If we work together in the same city in the future,
We can take care of each other too. Besides, I’m not good at chasing girls. You can give me some ideas. Well… I still need to consider it. Sure. Just think about it. But if Huanyu wants to hire you, you must never let the chance slip by. [Postbox] She’s here. Attention, everyone.
The female lead’s car will arrive soon. Attention, everyone. Three, two, one, release. Are you willing to… Hello, Harry Potter. Sunian. Who is he? He is Xue’s senior. Sunian’s love rival. What are you doing? [Beijing Taxi] Shiyin and Zhang Qi? What are you two doing here? We… Sending a letter. -Yes. -Sending a letter.
Where’s your letter? -Where’s your letter? -I didn’t bring a letter. How do we send it then? What are you doing here? Are you sweeping the floor while wearing this? You’re also tied to a rope. Are you playing? Why is he wearing that? That’s someone else’s broom. Is everyone just looking on? Go back!
Nothing to see here! Don’t block the road! Go back soon. Don’t block the road. Let me take your luggage. Sunian. Are you upset? No. I just feel that I did so much for nothing. I didn’t act it well. What did all of you plan to do just now? Well,
We want to give you a surprise. It’s already a surprise for me just by looking at your outfit. I shouldn’t have listened to Lin Shiyin. That was Shiyin’s idea? I’ll go thank her tomorrow. All right. Let’s talk about something serious. Have you thought about where you’re going to work after you graduate?
Why did you ask this question suddenly? I’ll buy a house at the place you’ll be working at. You haven’t been working for a long time and you’re already thinking about buying a house? How much money do you have to make you say this? I’m feeling sleepy. Let’s go back to rest.
It’s my fault. You should rest after taking a flight. [Liuli Hutong] Why are you here now? We’ve finished long ago. I was busy working and I had to work overtime. Work again? Is work that important? Just date your work then. Why are you here to see me so late at night?
Hurry up if you want to apologize. I still have work tomorrow. Shiyin. What is it? Let’s break up. What do you mean? I wrote this for a long time. Why? Why are you breaking up with me? Did I hinder your work? It’s not related to work. What is it then? Shiyin.
I told you. You are a ray of light to me. I like to chase the light. But I understand now that I will never catch the light. There’s no need to hide from me. I won’t disturb you anymore. I won’t give you a hard time. I also won’t
Embarrass you in front of your friends anymore. I’m leaving. Wu Huan! Wu Huan! Come back! Wu Huan, come back! Wu Huan! Wu Huan. Wu Huan. How old are you? Why are you eating so late at night? Didn’t you come out to eat something too? Is something on your mind? Because of Sunian, right? How do you know? I am smart. He wants to be with you but you haven’t thought it through. That’s not it. Actually,
We are already together. You… Him… Both of you… Did he do something bad to you? What are you thinking of, Dad? I’m worried about something else. What is it? You’ve heard of Huanyu Investment, right? I’ve heard of it. I think they’ve invested in two watch factories. What’s wrong? Did they bully you? No.
They are hiring me as their translator. That’s great. But I need to stay abroad. Also, I heard it’s quite a busy job. I can only come back once a year in the future. I knew you wouldn’t stay here for long. Then… Do you think I should go? If you’re asking me,
The answer is no. Your mom will get so angry if she finds out. I don’t want you to leave either. I am almost 50 years old now. There’s a fierce woman in the family. I only have a cute and active daughter to make me happy. Do you think I want you to leave?
Speaking of which, the opportunity is yours. You will be responsible for your choice and its consequences. So you don’t need to listen to anyone about whether to go or not. Just follow your heart. Dad, why are you so nice? Your mother is the one who’s nice. She helped you with everything
Without any complaints. I dare not be responsible for everything. Because I’m very afraid that one day you’ll point at me and say it was all because of me. Tell me then. If I go, will my mom get sick from anger? Definitely. But it’s all right. She’ll be fine because parents are best
At compromising. Tell me. Can I really selfishly abandon the person I love for my dreams? How can you say that? Will you sever ties with us after you leave? Don’t feel so burdened. We have our own lives. Maybe both of us will become active again after you leave. So, ask yourself
Whether you want to go or not. If you want to go, I will help you with the rest. Sure. Dad, cheers! What? Sunian rented an apartment? Yes. He wants to live with you. He played Harry Potter yesterday to invite you. He can tell me that directly. Whose idea was it
That made him go through all that? Shiyin, what’s wrong? Why are you so quiet? It’s fine. But Xue, I think you need to tell Sunian as soon as possible. Tell him about what? I received a job offer from Huanyu’s headquarters. That’s good news. Why won’t you tell him?
You’re afraid that he won’t agree? I haven’t told him about my previous travel overseas for my interview. Xue. You gave up an opportunity of studying abroad during high school. That was such a waste. You can’t miss it this time. Talk to him.
[Xue: Sunian, are you getting off work? I’m going to find you.] Mr. Luo. We are leaving. [I’ll go and find you.] [Let me find you. I’ll bring you to a place tonight] Master. Help me deliver this to Mr. Sun later. Tell him I bought this especially for him.
Then, you can get off work. Has Xue decided to go abroad? Yes. She received an email from overseas, right? She went there for two weeks for that interview. If she didn’t want this opportunity, why did she go so far for an interview? Are you willing to let her go? Old Man. I’m not.
Working abroad is different from studying abroad. If she’s doing well, she will be staying there. Besides, she will feel sad if she can’t go. I want to ask you. Don’t you feel sad when Baiqing went abroad? There’s nothing to be sad about. Look at you. You are overthinking. Our children have grown up.
They have their own ideas. As a parent, we should support them whenever possible. Are you surprised? Yes. Xue. You are good at lying sometimes but sometimes, you’re not. I… I’m not lying. You got a job offer but you didn’t tell me. When are you planning to tell me? I… I came here today
To tell you about it. I didn’t tell you previously because I haven’t thought of how to tell you. Have you thought it through now? Not yet. But I don’t want to hide it from you anymore. When you went to the interview, you’ve already thought about everything. I went to the interview
Because I thought it was an important opportunity. I wanted to give it a try to see if I could get the job. I’ll decide later whether to go or not. You should have told me then. Am I that unimportant? No. It’s because you are too important. That is why
I’m not sure how to tell you. I’m afraid… I’m afraid you might not understand. If I don’t understand you, who does? Mo Hai? Why are you bringing him up again? Both of you went together. He is just my senior. He is your senior now. What about in the future? Are you trying
To deliberately start a quarrel again? I’m starting a quarrel? When you were planning your future with someone else, I was decorating our home! When did I plan my future with someone else? This is the home that you wanted. Not the home that I wanted. So, you don’t want me as well? No.
That’s… That’s not what I mean. I… I… I’m just very confused. I… Sunian. Sorry. I… Let’s talk about it next time. [Wenrentang Pharmacy] [Counter] Xue. Shao Xue. Why are you here? Mr. Qian asked me to take care of his shop. How’s your talk with Sunian? Zhang Qi. Tell me.
Can you only choose one between the person you like and the thing you like to do? Sunian doesn’t agree? I shouldn’t have gone for the interview and hidden it from him. Xue. You shouldn’t think that. -Actually… -Boss. Check out, please. Coming. Don’t mind me. I’m leaving. Sunian. Zheng Sunian. Open the door.
Zheng Sunian. What is it? What’s wrong? Am I not welcomed here? We are both adults. Drink with me. I saw Xue just now. Did you two have a quarrel? Because she lied to you about the interview abroad? There’s no need for her to lie to me. Didn’t she lie to you
Because she thought you wouldn’t let her go abroad? But it’s true that I don’t want her to go. Who are you to disagree with it? She already gave up once for you. Gave up on what? The exchange student opportunity in high school. Why do you think she didn’t go? She failed the interview.
And you believed her? She got 8.5 in her IELTS. Ms. Jin Ning just passed away at that time. You were so dejected. You skipped classes all the time. She was afraid no one would accompany you if she left. I’d rather she left then. If she left then,
How can you be who you are today? Sunian. It wasn’t easy for Xue to lie to you. But you should know that she’s always wanted to go abroad since she was young. This is a rare opportunity for her. She told me the things that are most important to her
Are to go abroad and you. She doesn’t know what to do either. Sometimes, you need to learn to let go. Even if you let her go abroad, she’ll still come back. Have a chat when you’re both free. Cheers. Mom. I haven’t visited you for some time. [Madam Jin Ning’s Grave]
You won’t blame me, right? You used to say that I’m quiet. I kept everything inside my heart. I have something to say now. But I don’t know who I should say it to. Mr. Zheng, you’re back? Xue. You bought so many things. [Beijing Instant Noodles] It’s my afternoon break.
I wanted to buy some things and bring them back. Let me help you. There’s no need. It’s fine. Come in. Mr. Zheng. Why did you buy so many instant noodles? Sunian is not here. I don’t want to cook alone. This is convenient. Come and eat at our house then.
It’s unhealthy to keep eating instant noodles. Put this over there. What else? Right. I need to take this to Sunian’s house. -Let me do it, Mr. Zheng. -Sure. Here. Many things happened recently. I quarreled with Xue. I know. She didn’t lie to me on purpose. She was afraid that I would be worried. It was partially your fault too. You told her
So many stories back then. You made her look forward to the outside world. You also liked going everywhere in the past. When Dad brought you back, did you complain about him? But both of you are so happy after that. Does it mean that even if I’m selfish for once, it’ll be okay?
As long as I treat her very well just like how Dad treated you, Xue will also be very happy. Right? [Me and Xue’s Room] Xue. I’m going back to work. When you leave later, just lock the door. Mr. Zheng. I’m going with you. You saw and heard about the outside world.
But she hasn’t been there yet. Her dream is within reach but she has to give up. And the reason for that every time is me. Now, she’s probably feeling quite sad, right? I can’t bear to see her feel sad. [For Sunian who’s the best in the world, Shao Xue] Sunian
