(Episode 19: Magnolia Buds)
(Spicy in taste and warm in nature.)
(They are associated with
the lung and stomach meridians
and help treat colds and nasal congestion.)
What do you want to do tomorrow night?
I want to go eat something
delicious with you.
Alright, I'll pick you up after work.
No need.
I can come back on my own.
How?
I'll take the bus.
It's really convenient.
Alright then.
I'll wait for you at the bus stop.
Okay, see you at the bus stop tomorrow.
Here we are.
Here, take this.
What's wrong?
He Suye.
When I like someone,
I like them for a very, very long time.
What a coincidence.
Me too.
Good night.
Good night.
Bye.
He Suye.
I like you.
If you're still willing...
would you be my boyfriend?
Good morning.
Good morning.
It's so hot.
Manager Shen, you look great today.
You're grinning from ear to ear.
The treatment is working well.
Have him continue taking the
medicine for a few more days
to clear out the toxins in his body.
Dr. He,
something good happened?
Tell me.
Your papers turned
out pretty well this time.
Keep up the good work.
I'll get going now.
Goodbye.
I'd say my paper could use a rewrite.
What's good about it?
Senior He is in an
exceptionally good mood today.
Indeed.
Grandpa Yu,
something big happened!
He.
Let's go to the cafeteria.
I'll pass. I'm heading out for a bit.
Alright, take care.
Song Feng.
Good luck.
Good... luck?
Why would I need luck
to eat at the cafeteria?
Better confess now, or
you'll pay for the bubble tea.
Look at her...
glowing with happiness.
Well,
I'm no longer single.
I have a boyfriend now.
Out of the blue?
I just casually brought it up,
and he said yes.
You brought it up?
So you made the first move?
Nice, you've made progress.
Look at you, all smug.
Don't be so dramatic.
You two were the same
back then. So don't judge me.
(Grandpa)
Hello?
Hello.
I heard you're in a great mood today.
Come on, spill.
Li Jie told you?
You and Shen are together now?
When did it happen?
You were so upset
during the Spring Festival.
When did it happen?
Why would I tell you?
You sound so smug.
Listen.
You finally got yourself a girlfriend,
so treat her well.
Don't get too full of yourself.
Cherish her.
Got it?
Got it, got it.
I don't need you to tell me that.
That's it. I'm driving.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
I'm off work.
I'm on my way too.
Dr. He.
He Suye.
Right on time.
Not a minute late.
Wait a second.
What?
Look.
You bought it?
I brought you flowers too.
You know
that love poem?
"Riding on a red leopard,
accompanied by a striped lynx."
"With a magnolia-wood carriage
and banners adorned with osmanthus."
Red leopards and striped
lynxes are hard to find,
so I brought you magnolia flowers instead.
There's a poem behind it?
Well, I'm giving you this
simply because you like it,
so I want to give it to you.
Thank you.
They smell so good.
Do they?
Let's enjoy the fragrance at home.
Let's go.
Where are they going?
To Shen's place, of course.
Look, they're holding hands.
What an enviable couple!
Do you need any help?
Not here.
Can you scoop some rice out
and set the table for me?
Sure. Is the dinnerware over there?
Everything's there. Be careful.
I made this soup for your
granddaughter-in-law. Not bad, right?
Here's the soup.
Thank you.
We're having chestnut chicken soup today.
Looks good.
Try it.
Okay.
Let me ladle some for you.
Try it.
How is it?
It really has a chestnut flavor.
Of course.
I invited you before,
but you wouldn't come.
You brat.
It's your first date.
Why didn't you take
Shen out for a nice meal?
You should've at least made more dishes.
It's so stingy of you
to just make these few dishes.
Totally unacceptable!
Look, my grandpa is scolding me.
He thinks I'm not treating you
well enough.
Then…
Explain it to him.
You want me to explain?
What am I supposed to say?
Anything. No pressure.
Well,
should I call him Grandpa
or Professor Yu?
Professor Yu will do. Relax.
Professor Yu, hello.
I'm Shen.
I asked He Suye to cook at home
because I think his cooking is amazing,
better than anything from a restaurant.
Take your phone back.
Okay.
You heard that?
My cooking is amazing,
and I treat her very well.
That's just how my grandpa is.
I was so nervous.
What's there to be nervous about?
What did he say?
He feels bad
and thinks he might've left
a bad impression on you.
No way. Why would he think that?
That's just how he is...
tough on the outside
but soft on the inside.
He's loved roasting me since I was little.
But honestly, he really likes you.
I've only
met him once.
Why does he like me already?
You two met
during your first follow-up visit.
He was covering for me at the clinic.
When he got back, he told me,
"Miss Shen is really pretty."
Why don't you two
have a meal together and
get to know each other?
Don't you think it's too soon for me
to meet your family?
It's nothing formal.
Well,
if it's just a casual meal, then sure.
I'm available anytime.
Tell Professor Yu for me
that I really like him too.
What a sweet talker.
No.
I need to reconsider.
If you meet my grandpa like this,
he's going to like you even more.
Then I'll fall out of favor.
I'll spoil you.
What are you watching?
"Twinkling Stars."
Teach me origami.
Origami?
Why are you suddenly interested in that?
I've always wanted to learn it
but never got the chance.
So,
what do you want to make?
A frog,
the kind that jumps when you press it.
Let me tell you.
Making a paper frog is hard.
You need to watch closely.
How hard can it be? Just show me.
Alright.
Look.
Take the paper,
fold it like this,
and then fold it again like this.
Like this.
After that,
unfold the paper
and fold it in half.
Fold it once more.
Like this.
Then…
After folding both sides,
fold these two corners.
Then fold it like this.
Right.
Then like this.
Done.
Someone
was so confident just now,
saying he could definitely get it right,
only to end up with this.
Did you mess up from the very first step?
How could that be?
That's an insult to my intelligence.
That's not what I mean!
He Suye.
Are you angry?
No.
Really?
I just realized something.
Every day I spend with you
makes me incredibly happy.
Alright then.
As long as you're happy,
you can say whatever you want about me.
I was just thinking…
Fortunately, I came to see you yesterday.
I know.
I saw you pacing outside the door.
You saw me?
I saw everything through the peephole.
I was so afraid you'd
leave the next second,
but at the same time,
I didn't want to startle you
by suddenly opening the door.
So,
I made up an excuse,
saying I needed to take out the trash.
I was afraid that you might reject me
if I said something wrong again.
I wouldn't. Why would I reject you?
Yesterday, you said
you had considered
the worst-case scenario...
waiting for me to return from abroad.
But what if, after I come back,
I still haven't figured things out?
Is this a trick question?
I'm being serious.
If one day
you make me feel miserable,
I won't hold onto you anymore.
A relationship
is about two people.
Happiness and joy
should go both ways.
For me
and for you,
it should be the same.
So,
if one day
I make you feel miserable
or
I make you feel unhappy,
you have to tell me.
I'll make changes.
If…
that's still not enough…
you can break up with me.
What are you saying?
Don't say things like that.
I'm saying this
because I truly want you…
to always be happy.
He Suye.
Fortunately, I came to see you yesterday.
Fortunately, you came to see me last night.
Fortunately, you opened the door yesterday.
Fortunately, I opened the door.
I'll tell you the code to my door.
Okay.
112167.
What are those numbers?
It's the ISSN of the English
edition of TCM Journal.
My first SCI paper
was published there.
That's so you.
Keep it in mind
so you can open the door
yourself when you come.
I'll try my best to remember those numbers.
Actually, if you had left
these flowers at my place,
you could still see them every day.
I'll come to see you every day.
A relationship
is about two people.
Happiness and joy should go both ways.
It's such a simple truth.
Why did I not understand it before?
You made it?
I searched for tutorials online.
Hard work makes up for clumsiness.
I made that paper frog! Suye threatened me.
He said if I couldn't do it,
he wouldn't help me check
the English version of my paper.
Keep it a secret.
Why did you expose him?
I'm too kind.
I couldn't stand to see you get fooled.
What do you need from me?
You got together with that TCM physician?
When?
The night before last.
He's just a lame TCM physician.
What do you see in him?
Yan Heng.
I didn't choose to be with him
because I saw something in him.
I chose him because when I'm with him,
I feel happy
and content.
That's something you could never give me.
Happiness should go both ways.
I wish
you could find the person
who makes you happy.
You're checking out today, right?
If you are satisfied
with our service,
we'd love to have you stay with us again.
As the front office manager,
I'll try to offer the best service.
I'll get back to work now.
Goodbye, Mr. Yan.
Please, don't come again.
(Shen Xifan)
What's wrong? Why are you calling me now?
I miss you.
What's wrong? Did something happen?
Nothing.
I just want to tell you
that I miss you.
Thank you for telling me.
I miss you too.
Bye-bye.
