♪There’s no need to wander anymore♪ [Memory of Encaustic Tile] [Adapted from Beifeng Sanbaili’s original novel “Memory of Encaustic Tile”] [Episode 24] [Absence Doesn’t Always Make the Heart Grow Fonder] Tang Ya. Hi. What brings you here? How can I help you? I… We’ll talk inside. Wu Huan, I’ll just stay here.
I just need to have a word with you. Okay. How did the interview go? It went well. Today is my first day at work. Congratulations. I knew you could do it. By the way, did you get the acceptance letter? Yes. What major are you taking? It’s a course about international logistic management.
International logistic… We’ll be working in the same field. Wu Huan! It’s been a while. Well? Did you have fun at work? Sure. You two carry on, I should get going. Bye. Bye. Why is she here? She… She came to ask something about work. Can you please keep your distance from her?
Shiyin, you got it all wrong. We are just friends. Just friends? If you two are friends, what does that make me? You… You’re different. I am your girlfriend. Say it. I am your girlfriend. You are my girlfriend. Whose girlfriend? My girlfriend. Say it in one go. Lin Shiyin is Wu Huan’s girlfriend.
Lin Shiyin is Wu Huan’s girlfriend. Louder. Lin Shiyin is Wu Huan’s girlfriend. Lin Shiyin is Wu Huan’s girlfriend. Lin Shiyin is Wu Huan’s girlfriend! Silly. The rooftop! There’s an enemy in the tunnel! I thought you weren’t coming back. I need to use your laptop. No, I’m having fun.
If you ever forget to take your keys, I won’t help you out again. Sorry. Please have a seat. “Why didn’t I receive the acceptance letter?” You didn’t make it. [China Post] Hello. Hello, how can I help you? There is an important letter I still haven’t received. So I came here to check.
There have been some issues with our system. [Acceptance Letter] We are shorthanded, so we have a backlog of work to do. Please come again tomorrow. Have you seen any acceptance letters? The recipient is Shao Xue. [Liuli Hutong Residents’ Committee] Tell Xue to stop waiting and come in for dinner. Xue! Stop standing there, come home for dinner. I don’t have the appetite. [Mailbox] Come home now. We’ll wait together after dinner. Okay? Come back inside. Come inside! Hello. Hello. Are you Shao Xue? There is an acceptance letter for you. An acceptance letter? Here.
Thank you. You’re welcome. [Acceptance Letter] Mom, Dad! -What is it? -I got in! You made it! Look! She made it! -She made it! -I’m accepted! This is great. You’ve finally made it! This is great! Yes! Wonderful! Great! Xue. Sunian, look! I got the acceptance letter! Magic is real! The magic wand works! Look!
Of course, it does. Let’s go. Lat’s have dinner. Come on! Mom, I’m back! Come in. Zhang Qi, Shiyin! Wu Huan! Sunian! That’s enough. We’ve seen it a million times. Look at it again. Fine. Let’s get back to my farewell party. This is a great feat for Xue, and you’re just leaving.
Don’t be so calculating. Who let her in? Get rid of her. Shiyin was just stating the fact. Huanhuan, what happened to you? Zhang Qi, when is your flight? You almost stole all the attention. My flight is tomorrow. I gathered all of you here to discuss something important. -What is it? -What is it?
I need you to make my wish come true. Students, we’ll be learning the ‘Discourse on Teacher’. “A teacher [“Discourse on Teacher” by Han Yu] passes on guidance, knowledge, and wisdom.” Tiezhu! Liu… Zhang Qi, what are you doing? This is outrageous! A student is openly shouting to a teacher in front of a crowd! Such insolence still exists in one of the best high schools even in the present day of the 21st Century. I bet you never thought after all those years
Of teaching, there would be a student that is as ruthless as me! I could have been a bad person and become shunned by society. But fortunately, I met you. Me too! I’m glad I met you. Thank you for not giving up so I could have a chance to study abroad, even though
I never left. Thank you! [Beijing Qiming High School] You confiscated my cosmetics, but you returned them to me. But they are all expired! Thank you for the donation. When you’re married, I’ll repay you in double! Tiezhu! We graduated! You are on your own now!
-Don’t miss us too much! -Don’t miss us too much! -We are not going to miss you anyway! -We are not going to miss you anyway! ♪Slowly emerges from the sea♪ As of now, Class 1 of Grade 12 has officially graduated! We must tell you from the bottom of our hearts, Mr. Liu,
-you did a great job! -You did a great job! -Thank you! -Thank you! ♪Staggering to take adventures♪ -Great! -Great! ♪Walking step by step♪ If you don’t find success, don’t bother coming back here! ♪Like a breeze♪ Just let it all out! We can hear you! ♪Waving doesn’t mean goodbye♪ ♪Like a gust of wind♪
♪Blowing gently♪ Alright, Mr. Liu. ♪Those troubles that we never told each other♪ [Teachers’ Office] [Knowledge is a teacher’s backbone, virtue is a teacher’s essence] [Honorary Credentials] [“Discourse on Teacher” by Han Yu] What are you looking at? Sunian, When is Zhang Qi’s flight going to pass from above? We can’t see it from here.
How did Zhang Qi’s plan for the teacher go? It went well. I’ve never seen Mr. Liu crying so hard. Zhang Qi always seemed like he didn’t care, but he’s quite thoughtful when he needs to. Actually, he cherishes his bonds with everyone. Hello? Yes. Okay. Yunsheng is drunk. I’ll pick him up. Stay safe on the way. Hello. I’m here. Where are you now? Okay. You must be Mr. Bai’s friend. Yes. He threw up all over me in there. Go inside and check on him. I’m sorry for the trouble. Sunian. My good friend.
How much did you drink? Let’s go. Sunian. Why are you here? Your friend called me. Friend? I have no friends in there. No friends? And you still drank so much? We got a project. The manager wanted me to keep the client company. You’re a designer. You aren’t a salesman.
Why should you have to drink with clients? The client wanted me to come. How could I turn them down? You can always make more money. But what will you do if your health fails you? Why would I still want this body if I don’t have money? Yunsheng. Why are you outside?
We were looking for you. Your briefcase. Okay. Thanks. Let’s go. I’ll send you home. It’s okay. My friend is here. Why did you call him here? I said I would drive you back, didn’t I? Mr. Xue would definitely be worried if you drove a man home.
Oh, he can’t tell me what to do. I’ll be leaving then. Text me when you get home. Okay. Bye. Drive safely. Okay. Didn’t you use to ignore her? Her father is in the fabric business. I’m off then. One of the top distributors in Jiangsu. Fashion and jewelry. A perfect match.
But you have a girlfriend. You should be more mindful. She’s a rich young lady. It was just on a whim. She wants to keep up appearances. I want connections. It’s the perfect deal for both of us. All right. The dorms have an earlier curfew during the holidays. Let’s hurry up and go back.
Okay. Look over there. What is it? I want to buy an apartment there. Are you out of your mind? This is 3rd Ring Road. Do you know how much it costs per square meter? Three years. Within three years, I’ll buy it. I’ve seen the household type. Yunjin would love it. I will
Bring her here to Beijing. All right. Buy it. In the meantime, let’s go back to our dorm for the night, all right? Come on. Let’s go. You have to come and visit after I buy that apartment. Yunjin… I’ll buy you an apartment… Hello? Hello. Is Bai Yunsheng around? Yes. What’s the matter?
I’m sorry. I’ve been calling him, but he didn’t pick up. I was a little worried. He… He is asleep. That’s good. Thank you. May I ask if you are Zheng Sunian? Yes. You… know me? Yunsheng often talks about you and Pei Shu. After hearing the way you talk,
I figured you must be Sunian. You’re sharp. It’s late. I shouldn’t bother you, but can I ask you one more thing? Has Yunsheng… been going out drinking a lot lately? I haven’t been able to reach him lately. I’m worried about him. Before he went to Beijing, he was a simple guy.
He loved drawing. He loved designing. But now… I feel like he has changed. Yunjin. Yunjin… I’ll bring you here and give you the best life. Don’t worry. Yunsheng will never change. Thank you, Sunian. I won’t take up any more of your time then. Goodbye. Mom, Dad, I’m off!
I’m going to study in Beijing. Not the Arctic. Two suitcases? That’s right. Besides, her university is only 12 stops away from our house by bus. Just go and visit her when you miss her. Or you could have Xue take a taxi back home to see you too. Mom, what’s the matter?
Did you do something to her? You’ve never been apart from me since you were a child. You’ve always been around me. Now, all of a sudden, you’ll be living in a dorm. I feel empty inside. I… I don’t know what I’m going to do. I feel like I’m about to lose my job.
I’ll be back by the weekend. The weekend? Look. T… That’s… One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Seven days! Are you ready, Xue? The taxi is here. Sunian. Get her to the university safely. Stay safe on the road. Go, both of you. Don’t tell me you guys are leaving. Don’t cry.
I won’t cry. I’ll hold it in. Take care of yourself! Take your time on the road, Sunian. Don’t worry, Mr. Shao. [The School Of English Welcomes New Students] [A Warm Welcome to the New Students of 2005] ♪The bicycle bell rings and takes me back to the alley I saw in my dream♪
♪I invite the sunlight to traverse the morning fog and breeze with me♪ It’s so hot. [Registration] ♪Riding my bike, trying to catch up to the fleeting youth♪ ♪The Forbidden City made from red walls and encaustic tiles in my memory♪ Why are there so many people? Where is my department’s booth?
♪Unlike the hustle and bustle of everyday life♪ ♪It’s quaint and peaceful♪ ♪Throughout the ordinary and extraordinary four seasons♪ Over there. Follow me, Xue. Sorry. Excuse us. Excuse us. Excuse us. Excuse us. ♪Who can understand the silence in our hearts?♪ Excuse me. [Department of Italian] Is this the Italian Department’s booth? Yes.
Where is the person in charge? He went to the students’ union. I think he had something to do. He will be back in a bit. Thank you. Not at all. The sunlight is blinding. Wait somewhere out of the sun. I’ll stand in the line. We will do this together. Sunian,
You’re like a moving umbrella. Exactly! They’ve fallen in love during the orientation. Just enjoy the shade. Why care about others’ opinions? Alright, you can go for lunch first. I’ll sort out the rest. Okay. Wu Huan. Yes, sir? You’ve been busy the whole morning. Go have your lunch. There are only a few left. I’ll go after this. Okay.
Oh, right! Today… is Shiyin’s first day at college, right? Yes. I wanted to see her off, but she told me her parents would be there. So she asked me to meet her later this evening. You are so close with Shiyin. Last time, she told me [Shunda Express] both of you are merely classmates.
This girl. Right, we are just classmates. Don’t be so nervous. It’s not my place to control her. Furthermore, both of you are adults now. You can decide the relationship between you two. Right? I’ll go check at the back, hurry up and have your lunch. Don’t tire yourself out. Hey, my apologies.
Sorry for keeping you waiting. It’s okay. Did you fill in the form? Okay. Go upstairs to register for your accommodation. Okay. [School of Foreign Studies] Shiyin said the guys in our school look like dinosaurs. He looks handsome. Right? Handsome how? Hello. Hello. You are Shao Xue, right? How do you know? Only five students took our course this year. Four of them had registered and I remember you. I’m impressed. You scored high in the English exam. Here. Fill in the form. All these columns are required. How about this? This is optional.
I’m Mo Hai, a sophomore. You can come to me if you have questions. Sure. After filling in the form, go upstairs to register for your accommodation. Okay. You can leave your luggage here. I’ll keep an eye on it. Okay, thanks. I’m looking after it. Are you a new student as well?
I don’t study here. I’ll settle this first then, Senior. Sunian, please keep an eye on my luggage. Bye. Boyfriend? No. Pursuer? No. Then… Brother? You don’t look alike. Xue is cute, but you… I’m her neighbor. Nowadays, even neighbors are so considerate. Senior, it’s all done. That’s quick. Yes. Look. Where is the accommodation?
I’ll bring you there later. It’s close to the students’ union. Students’ union? Yes. I heard that the members of the students’ union have many opportunities to enroll in cultural exchange programs. I wanted to be part of it too! Sure. After you settle down in your dorm, I can show you around. Okay!
Let’s go now. Okay. Sunian, you can leave first. I’ll go with my senior. -I… -Bye! Bye! Let’s go. Wait. [Liuli Hutong] Five, six, seven. I feel like you’re like Yiping recently. [*A character in a romance drama] “The twentieth day since she left”, “missing her”. “Missing her”. Look at you, acting all silly.
Our daughter is not home. Why bother to look serious? Hey. Let’s take a foot bath. Together? I’m disgusted by your smelly feet. No, thanks. Fine. You can take the foot bath first. I’ll do it later. That’s more like it. Disgusted? The water is warm. Is that Xue? Hello, love. Hello, Xue. Mom.
Your dad’s here too! Dad. Look at you. When’s the last time you called us? I am busy. I’m busy with the students’ union. My schedule is packed. Why are there noises over there? It’s noisy. I’m still busy here. I borrowed my classmate’s phone to call you. I’m afraid you’ll fall asleep later.
I want to ask if you’ve eaten the spiced beef I gave you last time. Yes. I even gave some to my classmates. Did you give some to Sunian? I forgot it. I haven’t seen him for a while. Well, you little brat. You shouldn’t forget your old friends
Even though you’ve got some new ones. By the way, Mom. Do you remember Mo Hai I once mentioned to you? Who? I remember. The excellent kid, right? Yes, that’s him. He’s the head of our school’s public relations department. He took me into the department, too. We receive foreign guests every day.
There are many practical opportunities. That’s great. You should practice more for English. The more you practice, the more fluent your English will become. Can you film yourself speaking English sometime? So I could show it to our neighbors. There’s nothing to be shown. Let’s not show off and keep a low profile.
You’re right. Okay. Right. Keep a low profile. Xue. Come over here. [Students’ Union] Take a look at tomorrow’s activity plan. Mom, I’ll talk to you later. I’m hanging up. Bye. Talk to your dad? Okay. I’ll pass it to him. Well, this girl. She hung up earlier than me. I didn’t expect it.
It’s not my fault. Soak your feet. Come on. Enjoy it yourself. Hey. Getting angry? I’ll enjoy it myself then. Three, two, one. It’s done. Hurry up. It’s hot. How annoying. I miss her. But she doesn’t miss me. My dear sister. Did you fall for someone else? Hey, my noodles. It serves you right.
Did you see it? Someone didn’t contact him. So he took it out on me. Because you were too mean. How long hasn’t your neighbor contacted you? How many times have you met her since school started? She’s busy studying. S-Sunian. Even I don’t believe what you said. You are meaner than me.
I’m afraid I’ll bother her. So I don’t contact her. Maybe she thinks I’m busy. Contact her then. See if you can still contact her. Did you get through? Hello. I’d like to talk to Shao Xue. What? It’s so late and she’s still outside? Students’ union? No. Thank you. Did you get in touch with her? She’s busy with the activities of the students’ union. Oh, no. What’s with that reaction? It’s the students’ union. That’s a big-scale blind date site. Take a look if you don’t believe it. Your neighbor is now staring at stars and the moon with her beloved senior
Just like Romeo and Julia. They talk about everything. It should be Romeo and Juliet. Come on, that’s not the point. Do you know what the point is? If the senior shows his affection, there’ll be no place for Sunian. Listen to me. It’s going to be too late if you don’t go now.
How can I go there at this late hour? I’ll go tomorrow. That’s right. Let me tell you. You might make a fool yourself if you fight alone. Yunsheng. Go with him [To The Best Person in The World, From Shao Xue] tomorrow. What about you?
There will be an activity at the students’ union tomorrow. I need to take care of some girls. Dismiss. I asked. Shao Xue isn’t here. Her roommate asked you to look for her at the students’ union. Thank you. Don’t mention it. Sunian, why did you come here? I’ve been
Calling your dorm these two days. But you were away. We’ve been quite busy at the students’ union in the past two days. I went out early and came back late. So you were with him this entire time? Yes. An exchange student group came to our school. We planned a very big welcome party
And rehearsed a comedic version of “Titanic”. Don’t tell me that you’re playing Rose while he is playing Jack. Yes. That’s right. No way. Why not? You… You can’t swim. This is a play. There’s no need to swim. Continue the conversation without me. I’m going up to change. Why do you need to change?
I have to dress up. I can’t embarrass my senior. Why don’t I show you around? No need. Both of you haven’t eaten yet, right? Let me treat you. Not hungry. Let me buy you some drinks. -Not thirsty. -Not thirsty. Where’s your event today? I want to take a look as well. Sorry.
This is an internal activity. Well… It’s not right for an outsider to be there. Who is an outsider? Both of them are childhood friends. Know your place. [Girls’ Dorm] I’m done. So? How do I look? -Stunning! -Stunning! The weather is cold. You are wearing too little. I wore it for the event.
We’ll be leaving then. Xue. Let me pick you up when it’s over. No need. We will come back together in a group. Don’t worry. I will escort her to the dorm’s entrance safely. I’m going. Bye. Oh, Sunian. There’s a nice restaurant selling beef near the entrance. Go and try it. Bye. Sunian.
It’s over. Our experience in love is definitely not enough. We need Pei Shu’s help. Look at you guys. Can’t you do anything without me? Now that I’m here. Let’s go. Xue didn’t ask me to come. You won’t come because she didn’t ask you to come? They are both in the “Titanic” play.
The portrait scene will come later. Stop hesitating. The more you hesitate, the more she’ll be taken advantage of. -Let’s go. -Let’s go. What’s wrong? Well, I… I should… Come on. What are you afraid of? I’m here. Sunian, don’t worry. This Mo Hai is just a normal pervert at most. All his tricks
Are outdated. Hey… Stop pulling me. I’m very angry now. Sunian, don’t worry. I know all his tricks well. He pretends to be the nice guy and tries to approach her when they are close. Holding her hands, her waist, and even play a role in “Titanic” together. Nonsense! Sorry, bro.
Don’t you think I’m right? I’m talking to you two. What are you doing? Sunian, there’s no need to worry. Think about it. From past to present, all the beautiful love stories are made more touching due to the existence of a villain. Right? If you can see things that way,
You can think of Mo Hai as that guy. What… What’s his name? Fahai. Yes. Think of him as Fahai. If you think like that, your relationship with Shao Xue will reach a whole new level. What a soul-stirring story. Am I right? Hello. I’m the Fahai you speak of. Who? Fahai.
The three of you come all the way here just to badmouth people? Xue. I’m not sure if I should say this. Don’t say it then. A man who complains to girls definitely has a bad character. What about men who speak ill of others behind their backs? We said it in front of him.
Report. I told him that. He said more. But Sunian didn’t say a thing. I don’t want to talk to you. I want to hear it from him. Well… Have a good chat. Have a good chat. Speak up, Zheng Sunian! Why are you calling my full name?
