(Follow your heart.

Don't limit yourself.)

Perfect.

Cen Jin.

Once this ad goes live,

you'll win awards again.

All that matters

is that you're satisfied.

Can I take a few days off?

You haven't wrapped up

the follow-up work,

and you want to apply for leave already?

That's not like you at all.

My brother's NCEE is coming soon.

I need to make some preparations too.

Alright, got it.

Leave the rest to me.

Go take care of your stuff.

Thanks, Boss.

He's been at school the whole time?

He can study at home too.

He's really hardworking.

These past few months,

his grades have kept improving.

He comes home less and less.

I think

he's pushing himself.

Mr. Qi said

students like him

won't settle for mediocrity.

He's always ranked

around Top 10 in school.

He's probably

in seclusion,

trying to get better.

I don't want to disturb him.

I can only praise

and encourage him.

Who said you couldn't praise people?

You're getting pretty familiar with it.

Practice makes perfect.

Besides,

Li Wu is indeed outstanding.

Yes.

He's impressive.

How about this pen?

It feels very clean.

This color.

But I think this one

suits him better.

True.

But if Li Wu

finds out about the price,

will he feel pressured?

Since it's a NCEE gift,

I want it to last

and mean something.

Just don't tell him.

Excuse me.

Hello.

How can I help you?

I like to buy this pen.

Alright.

I'll get you a new one.

Sure, thanks.

Alright.

(Walking Through Campus)

(Give it your all

and may you pass with flying colors.)

(NCEE Candidates, Parents' Waiting Area)

How do you feel right

after finishing NCEE?

I think I did okay.

Look at that smile.

You must've done well.

How was it?

Are you confident?

Not bad.

Not bad again?

When the results come out,

you'll be pretty busy.

Busy with what?

No idea.

It went pretty well.

Li Wu.

Excuse me.

Hi, Sister.

I'm Cheng Rui.

This is my childhood friend, Tao Wanwen.

We're Li Wu's friends.

Hello, Sister.

Hi.

Sister.

You're really gorgeous

and eye-catching.

I spotted you

in the crowd right away.

Otherwise,

I wouldn't even have seen Li Wu.

Thanks.

You're handsome too.

No.

How did you do?

I did

Let me borrow

some of your good exam luck.

I'll do well and guess right.

- Enough.

- Wanwen.

Over here!

My family's here.

I got to go.

Bye, Sister.

What's the rush?

Hold on.

I'll go with you.

I'm going.

Cheng Rui.

The car's over there.

You go back first.

Wen and I still have stuff to do.

I'll take her car.

Bye.

Wen!

Over here!

Tao Wanwen

got a top-student face.

A top-student face?

The kind

that looks like she gets great grades

and always stays on the right track.

Both your temperaments

are kind of similar.

But she's probably

way more outgoing than you.

Her grades are indeed good.

She's my classmate in Rocket Class.

During class,

she helped me a lot.

Then you should thank her.

Let's go.

My car's parked up front.

Cheng Rui looks like the kind

who's easy to get along with.

So am I easy to get along with?

You?

The most difficult person

I've ever dealt with.

Really?

You don't remember?

You were so awkward

when you first came.

Every time I talked to you,

I would get a headache.

And now?

Any better?

Now you're tall, handsome, obedient,

and you get good grades.

You're my perfect,

100-point little brother.

Come on.

Let's go home.

(Wishing all students

success in their exams.)

It's only nine?

(Are you awake?)

(I bought you some food.)

(It's in the fridge.)

(Remember to eat breakfast.)

(Start living healthier.)

The core

of our theme

is using love as the bond.

Through our unique fragrance,

we build a link

between consumers and the brand.

(Thank you.)

(I slept really well last night.)

(And the cake was great.)

We've launched

(What are you doing?)

Scented Memories micro-film series.

Each micro-film

tells a story

(I'm in a meeting.)

(Why don't you take today off)

(and rest at home?)

(The new system's on a trial run,)

(so the schedule's tight.)

Falling in love and staying together.

But sometimes

it's because

a couple

has a conflict.

(Good luck.)

That's it

for today's livestream.

To thank

all the darlings who've supported me

and followed me all this time,

I've prepared

a few small gifts.

Next,

I'll contact

the top five fans

on our ranking.

I'll leave you a message.

Send me your address.

See you next time.

(Livestream Ended)

This ID

I thought it was a random passerby.

I didn't expect them

to be a die-hard fan.

(Thanks for your support.)

(Remember to send me your address.)

(Thanks for your support.

Remember to send me your address.)

Uncle.

I really didn't expect

you'd be into this stuff in private.

You're even her top supporter.

How could you

nag me not to use my phone every day?

None of your business.

Are you a monkey?

If you're done cleaning up,

hurry back to your office.

My place isn't a hotel room.

Your place is close to the office.

It's just more convenient to stay here.

You don't even know

how much Li Wu's

been making me work overtime.

They're giving you a gift

and even asking for your address.

Give it back.

I'm almost done typing.

If you don't want it, give it to me.

Why waste a freebie?

Leave.

Fine.

Top supporter.

Get lost.

(Super Speed Delivery)

How big is your parcel?

I'm not sure.

See if this is it.

(Chun Chang)

Yes.

Thank you.

Remember to write

your phone number next time.

You put my courier station's number.

How am I supposed to find you?

Got it.

Thanks.

Don't mention it.

(Stray Cat.)

(A hairbrush as a gift.)

(May it help you

smooth out a beautiful life.)

Why isn't Dad back yet?

Your dad's been helping students

with their theses. He's swamped.

Don't wait for him.

He's been busy lately.

I haven't seen Wu in a while.

If he's free,

invite him over someday for a meal.

He's all alone here.

It's lonely during the holidays.

Mom.

Are you sleeping better lately?

Still having insomnia or night sweats?

I feel much better.

I took Lu's medicine.

Basically,

I can sleep until morning now.

That's good.

But shouldn't you

still go back for a check-up?

No need.

I was chatting with Lu on WeChat

a few days ago.

I told him about my condition.

He said,

"No problem.

Just keep taking the medicine

to stabilize it."

Honestly, Lu's

a pretty good guy.

Thoughtful and considerate.

He would be

a very good

husband.

I know,

but we still need to get along first.

Look.

Even if you don't pick on him,

he might pick on your daughter.

True.

This is a big deal.

We can't be rash.

But after getting to know him,

what do you think?

He's alright.

Mom.

Just let us take things slowly.

Let's go with the flow, okay?

Sure.

Of course.

Go with the flow.

Lu, hello?

This weekend,

I'm going over to Jin's place.

Do you have time?

You're welcome to join if you do.

I'll cook something nice for you two.

Mom.

Didn't we agree to go with the flow?

I know.

I'm just giving you two a little push.

More interaction

gives a better understanding.

No problem.

Thank you, Mrs. Cen.

Remember.

Make sure you clean

your place.

Don't let him think

you're messy and unhygienic.

It's organized chaos.

Sure.

Drink the soup first.

It's good.

We did it!

We did it!

I told you we would.

How did it go?

The test passed?

The first internal test went great.

All that overtime

finally paid off.

What did I say?

This was bound to go well.

Everyone worked hard.

We've cracked

the hardest part.

Our new model

has officially passed

the initial AI training phase.

Next,

we'll just need to run AB tests

to replace the old model.

Let's refine everything

and deliver

to Mr. Guo on time.

I promise you.

This will be

our last overtime night this month.

Alright.

Shouldn't we

celebrate something like this?

How about the barbecue downstairs?

Everyone's

not in a hurry to go home, right?

- Yes.

- Yes.

Who'd leave when there's barbecue?

Barbecue is my favorite.

Yi.

I know that place.

A food blogger reviewed it before.

It's popular.

Right?

Then it's settled.

Du.

Call the place downstairs.

Book a bigger private room

and order all their signature dishes.

Okay.

Okay.

See you all downstairs.

- Sure.

- No problem.

What are you spacing out for?

If you're not excited about eating,

there's something wrong with you.

Yes.

Come on.

Let's go.

Where are you going? Join us.

I want to head home early today.

Help me treat everyone.

Order as you please.

It's on me.

Going solo?

Got a date?

Even stuffing your mouth with meat

can't shut you up.

In that case,

I'm ordering the expensive stuff.

I'll eat till you go broke.

I missed it again.

I'm too slow.

Mom, I'm heading home now.

Wait.

I missed it again.

You're not waiting for your dad?

No.

I've still got to work overtime.

The weather forecast said

it's going to rain.

You'd better

not get caught in it.

Got it.

Be careful on the way.

Okay.

Hold on.

I almost forgot.

- I prepared this for you.

- Mom.

Take a look.

Guess what it is.

Amethyst.

Mom.

Which group did you buy this from?

This is good stuff.

Really good stuff.

Be careful when you use it.

Don't drop it.

If the tips chip,

it'll stop working.

Mom.

How many times have I told you?

Stop buying stuff

from those

health chat groups.

What

yellow crystal and blue crystal?

Do you remember

the magnetic therapy bracelet

you bought?

It was exposed as a scam.

Okay?

This one's different.

It's scientifically proven.

Just like this one.

And this one.

They're all the same.

They said

this thing

can improve the house's magnetic field.

It contains trace minerals.

It can

improve sleep and ease fatigue.

Gosh.

It's scientifically proven?

Of course, they'll exaggerate

the effects.

How else

would you old folks buy it?

Look at me lately.

I'm not losing sleep, am I?

It's because we have these at home.

Of course.

It could also be

related to Lu's medicine.

It's exactly because of that!

I believe it, even if you don't.

- I don't.

- You have to take it.

I don't believe it.

- I don't want it.

- Take it.

You're always working overtime.

- It's bad to stay up late. Take it with you.

- I don't want it. Mom.

Keep it at home.

Does this thing even work?

Coming.

Li Wu.

My mom just bought these crystals.

She said it cures insomnia

and told me to bring them to you.

Thanks.

I'll pack them up.

You want to come in?

No, I've got things to do.

(Yi City, Sea City)

Hello?

Chang?

Are you up?

It's so late already.

Who wouldn't be up?

Well

Did you head out yet?

What's wrong?

Mr. Zhang

booked flights to Cheng City

behind my back.

He wants to take me and Yuan

traveling.

The three of you?

Sure.

Then, the three of you go.

Or I can tell him

to just take Yuan.

I'll stay home and wait for you.

Don't.

I don't want people thinking

I went back just to break you three up.

That'd look bad.

Chang.

I

I'm kidding.

I haven't left yet.

Good timing.

The bar's been busy lately anyway.

Just have fun.

Take care of yourself then.

Happy birthday.

Alright, I'm hanging up.

Sir, turn around.

I'm not going to the airport.

Let's go back.

Okay.

Weren't you going home?

I missed my flight.

Weren't you

going camping with them?

Pretty much like you.

I finished late and missed it.

Xiao Jun and the rest already left.

I couldn't be bothered to go.

Upset?

Is it that obvious?

Your emotions

are written all over your face.

Why the sudden concern

for me?

Fell for me?

You're not denying it?

I'll take it seriously then.

Looks like you're fine now.

People are really weird.

Every time my expectations fall flat,

I tell myself

not to expect anything again.

No hopes, no disappointment.

But the next time,

I still can't help imagining

all sorts of things.

You probably don't get it.

It's fine. I'll be okay tomorrow.

I think

we don't need to be happy all the time.

Spacing out once in a while is good too.

Just like now.

Don't think about happy stuff.

Don't think about sad stuff either.

I think you're right.

If I'd known, I wouldn't have gone back.

I'd have gone camping with you guys.

I really wanted to see the stars.

You want to see stars?

Shen Yiyang.

From now on,

you'll be the one

watching the stars with me.

Okay?

Okay.

That should be about it.

Thanks, Yiyang.

Good thing you let me

use the lab tonight.

Or else I couldn't have

run the tests.

Don't be so polite with me.

So?

How's the new model coming along?

We passed the test.

Our next step

is to run AB tests

so that the new model

can replace the old one.

Good.

Let's grab a meal together.

I'll pass.

I had a meeting at noon.

By the time I finished lunch,

it was past three.

But I can do a drink.

Okay.

My friend opened a lounge bar.

It's pretty nice.

Want to go there?

Sure.

Then,

it's my treat.

You decide.

Alright.

(Chang Bar)

So

Li.

Yiyang, you came.

How did you two

end up coming together?

Mr. Shen?

- You two know each other?

- You two know each other?

I didn't expect

you and Chun Chang to be besties.

What a small world.

Why is that surprising?

Outstanding people always cross paths.

Yiyang said

a friend of his

opened a bar here.

I only realized after arriving

that it's Chun Chang's place.

"A friend"?

Alright then.

Stop standing there.

Sit and talk.

Since Li Wu is here today,

it's on me.

Since everyone's here,

I'll open a bottle

from my private stash.

Sure.

Sit.

Li.

Four glasses, please.

I'll help you get them.

No need.

Just sit first.

Li Wu.

The air conditioner's

pretty strong here.

Sit here.

Thanks.

Ice bucket.

Thanks.

Working overtime again?

I've been busy testing these days.

Thanks.

Mr. Shen.

Long time no see.

I keep hearing

Chun Chang mention you lately.

I even said we should meet up,

but she never gives me a chance.

I didn't expect

we'd run into each other today.

If there's a chance,

let's meet more often.

"Meet more often"?

Some people are so busy

that you can't even book them.

Here, I'll pour.

Thanks.

Cheers.

I didn't expect fate to tie us together.

I think so.

Who is it?

It's me.

I still can't sleep.

Can I stay over

at your place tonight?

I'll sleep on the couch.

I'll leave early.

I know

this is kind of abrupt.

But

When I was here last time,

I slept really well.

I mean

I sleep well here.

Once I went home,

I couldn't sleep again.

So maybe

I can only sleep here.

Forget it.

I'll just go back

and try again.

Sorry to bother you.

Come in.

This buckwheat pillow works better.

Use this.

Right.

Dr. Lu said

your last checkup went pretty well.

Since the medicine works,

take it on time.

Putting them like this

looks like a magic formation.

Am I going to

fall asleep for good?

Knock three times on the wood. Hurry.

Actually,

these days I've realized

what really helps me sleep

isn't these things.

What is it then?

It's all used up.

You should sleep.

What are you doing?

You're wearing slippers.

You're wearing slippers too.

Don't move. There's glass on the floor.

Put me down. You

Sit still.

You got nervous?

Men and women are different.

But I'm your younger brother.

Where's the broom?

Behind the bathroom door.

Do you have clear tape?

In the drawer over there.

Why are you staring at me?

Afraid I'll do something?

I think

we should keep some distance.

Didn't we agree

to let go and move on?

But all these years I've wondered

why we split back then.

You should sleep.
