Forever and Ever
Episode 12
Just now in the hall,
I didn't see you offer incense.
I am an atheist.
But I believe in Buddhism, what should we do?
You have my full respect.
So, in your eyes,
what's Buddha like?
Benevolent, I guess.
The reason Buddha left his wife and children behind and pursued Buddhism
is because
he cares about everything on earth.
Is there any difference
with how you perceive him?
There are some differences.
Like what?
I think he likes me.
That's why he's always smiling at me.
What are you laughing about?
The eye sees what the mind wants to see.
I always see things
from the positive side.
Which means I am living a happy
and positive life.
Makes sense.
Am I wrong?
There is no right and wrong.
Only the different perspectives.
Let's go to the villa
and wait for them there.
Did you finish?
Old Madam.
The guests we invited today are all sitting next door.
They all finished eating, right?
They are now having tea.
Mr. Feng heard that
the eldest son of Mr. Zhousheng Wen
is here with his fiancée.
So he wrote a piece of calligraphy
and was hoping to present it to Miss Shi Yi.
He's one of my father's friends.
This is hard to come by.
Mr. Feng's works are priceless.
Only his best friends
could enjoy his works.
The guests here today have been
friends of our family for generations.
We should all go and say hello.
Let's go.
My strokes are not as good after years of idling.
Your calligraphy is getting better and better.
Feng.
Mrs. Zhou, how are you?
I am fine.
Is he the eldest son of Zhousheng Wen?
Chen?
Yeah.
This is Shi Yi,
his wife.
Nice to meet you, Mr. Feng.
Is she his wife already?
Wait.
When was the wedding ceremony?
Why were we not invited?
Young people are impatient
so they registered their marriage first.
The ceremony is yet to happen.
Oh, that explains it.
Mrs. Zhou,
I haven't taken up my brush for a long time.
It only occurred to me
when I heard about your marriage.
Thus, I wrote a few characters.
Here, come and have a look.
Come and have a look.
Gentle breeze blowing softly, what a perfect match.
I first wrote “what a perfect match”
indicating your marriage.
After thinking for a bit,
I felt that these four characters
Gentle breeze blowing softly
were the most suitable words in a study.
That's why I wrote both of them down.
Thank you, Feng.
Mrs. Zhou,
Let's sit down and have a chat.
Okay, after you.
I don't have anything with me
to return as a gift.
What should I do?
It's okay.
Mr. Feng also
did this on the spot.
If you really want to give him something,
it will be okay if I sent him something
I had picked out
from the library.
Do you take your family library as a treasure-house?
Having everything you want in it.
Grandpa Feng.
I heard from aunty
that your calligraphy works are priceless.
My drawings are not as good as yours
but I still want to draw something for you.
I was wondering if Mr. Feng would mind.
Sounds great! I would be lucky to have a newlywed
gift me a piece of drawing.
Miss Shi, please.
Call me Shi Yi.
Shi Yi.
What a beautiful name.
Please.
Let me help you.
Mr. Feng. I am done.
Please.
Okay, let's have a look.
Check it out.
Great.
Good drawing.
You have found your treasure.
By the way,
where are you holding your wedding ceremony?
Zhenjiang.
Zhenjiang?
Then I will be
expecting your invitation.
- Okay, we will definitely invite you. - Okay, great.
Yes indeed.
Where did you learn how to draw?
I used to copy the works from masters
when I was little at home.
I would often
lock myself in the room
just because I liked this hobby.
I noticed it was a good way to kill time.
Then I guess
you're just talented.
I loved drawing the lotus flower when I was young.
I also practiced figure painting.
However,
my painting of people was never good.
Maybe I'm just bad at it.
Right, I recall telling you that story,
at the Guangzhou airport.
The heroin in the story was also the same.
She followed the male lead and learned how to draw,
yet she never drew any human figure.
And she was best at drawing the lotus flower.
She was actually drawing the lotus flower
to represent the male lead.
It's not that she couldn't draw him,
but she didn't dare to.
She was afraid of others finding out
that she has a crush on the male lead.
It that the reason why
you are such a big fan of
the story of the Junior Prince of Nanchen?
I almost forgot,
you told me
that you knew the story as well.
Where did you hear about his story?
He is in our family tree.
I am also named after him.
Does your family have that recorded? I want to have a look.
Sure. I'll look for it at home.
Wenchuan followed your instruction
and married Jiaren,
so you were happy about it.
Chen, however,
did not do what you wanted.
But you should have calmed down after a few days.
Why do you have to make it such a big deal?
Well, Tang Xiaofu is still in a coma.
Was I wrong to call off the banquet?
No, what you did was perfectly fine.
But your refusal to meet with Shi Yi's parents
is wrong.
At the end of the day,
you just don't want
Shi Yi to be your daughter-in-law.
I just don't want her to marry Chen.
Marriage is
all about affection.
There's no point in talking about influences.
Then what about you and Zhousheng Xing?
Well,
at... at that...
Mother.
You just can't let go
what happened between me and Zhousheng Xing.
Do you know how much I have done
so many years
to protect what Chen's father
had left for us.
Besides,
Zhousheng Xing has been running the family business for 20 years.
Do you think
he's gonna just simply hand over the whole thing
back to Chen?
I still have some capability
to protect Chen.
But what if I get tired one day
and could no longer help?
What if his second uncle turned against him?
Who's gonna help him then?
Let's be real for a minute.
Chen and I are not blood related.
In this family,
he doesn't have any real family.
Neither are you.
True, I am not.
His wife could be considered his family.
After we're gone, his wife would be
the person that takes care of him
and help him wholeheartedly in the future.
I am helping him
by introducing him to a girl with a powerful family.
Am I wrong for doing that?
Zhousheng Chen
I can't believe it's there.
Why me?
What do you mean why?
At the Baiyun Airport.
Why did you want to know me？
I have been thinking about this
many times afterwards,
but I still find it unbelievable.
With only a story,
and the same name?
Those don't sound like good reasons.
Not just one name that's the same,
but two.
Shiyi.
But,
I don't mind you seeing this
as love at first sight.
I really wanted to know you that day.
♫ In the memory ♫
♫ The snow-covered city tower ♫
You don't buy it?
You want to hear the truth?
♫ When your name rings out ♫
Between you and I,
your appearance would more likely
make someone fall for you at first sight.
♫ Finally blooming again ♫
But I...
I think you are very attractive.
♫ Like a flower of the soul ♫
♫ The dreams that have accompanied me through the light years ♫
What a pity
♫ I know that with just one look ♫
you didn't have feelings for me when you first saw me.
♫ I can be sure it's the end ♫
Yeah.
I don't know why.
Maybe I'm not very sensitive
♫ Not afraid of falling ♫
about these things.
♫ Running to the world with you ♫
Nevertheless,
I like it that
our love for each other is growing over time.
In other words,
it makes a relationship stronger.
♫ The poem I'll continue to write ♫
♫ With your name in each line ♫
For example,
The Theory of the Gene
♫ If it started all over again ♫
at first, our lives
are like these two books.
♫ I'd still remember our love ♫
The Origin of Spieces
They have different content,
and aren't they related.
♫ It took ♫
However,
♫ Hundreds of centuries ♫
each part
of our lives
♫ For our love to begin ♫
are overlapping one another.
As our time together
gets longer and longer,
♫ There's no way it'd end ♫
there are more and more overlapping parts.
Which means we are getting along much better.
In the end, no matter how much external force is exerted,
nothing would separate us.
That's why I think it's good
for love to grow over time
to make a strong relationship.
Isn't that just friction?
Mr. scientist.
You saw through it.
How long will you be there this time?
About two months.
That long?
What are you working on
at that German lab?
To put it simply,
I am researching the possibility
of human beings living on Venus.
Is Venus even habitable?
Not now.
The surface temperature of Venus
has now reached
around 480 degrees Celsius.
Its atmospheric pressure on the surface
is also 90 times that of Earth.
But in terms of its volume
and mass,
it is very similar to Earth.
Maybe in the future
humans could
live on Venus.
Do you find it boring
listening to me talking about this?
No, I don't.
Here's some cake.
Your mother asked you to go over.
Please excuse me.
Go ahead.
Are you alone?
Your mother went for a walk with the old madam.
Your mother signed them all.
From now on,
all the assets left by your father
have been officially transferred to your name.
You now own the Zhou family.
She said
Industrial Property Transfer Agreement
this is all conducted according to
your father's will.
You don't have to thank her.
She was still very cross though.
No sign of cooling down.
This is
the general power of attorney form.
After signing this
from today on,
I will be your representative.
You are not afraid that I would sell you out?
Will you?
You can't be too careful.
But you shouldn't suspect someone whom you trust, right?
Done.
Even though you're the one who signed this,
I feel like I've become a slave.
When are you going to set off?
Soon.
I will fly to Bremen this afternoon.
I was planning to let you
meet Shi Yi.
We have time in the future.
Well, see you in Bremen.
I will be staying there for 2 months.
Okay.
Yu Jin.
I got some good news for you.
What good news?
Did your mother call you back
for another blind date?
What are you talking about?
Our teacher sent us
and his colleagues at Bremen an email,
saying that he's married.
He is married?
Who would send out mass email to colleagues
after getting married these days?
He's probably living in the last century.
Maybe his wife is someone formidable.
No.
I think our teacher is doing this on purpose
to show his wife.
Perhaps as a gesture of loyalty?
Very possible.
My mother asked me
when will we go home?
I am busy these days.
I am about to go back to Bremen.
I am only free this month.
It's better we do it this week.
We just got married
so we should go back for a few days.
My brother just left,
but you are already so eager to join him?
This has nothing to do with him.
My laboratory is also in Bremen
and you knew that.
You are my wife,
I thought I should clarify this.
We talked about this before our marriage
and you had no problem with
me working in Bremen.
We just got married.
Isn't it too soon for you to leave right now?
We should have a baby.
To make my mother happy.
I am not ready yet.
The reason why I married you
is because my mother believed
that my family owed your family a favor.
And you married me
to spite my brother.
Between you and I,
there is no need to put up an act.
If you don't want to get married.
Then why did you propose to me?
Because my mother liked you.
I thought after marrying you,
I could receive my mother's support.
But it looks like I was overthinking it.
My mother only cares about being fair.
She never cared about me.
Have a good journey.
I hope you can
win my brother's heart in Bremen.
If you succeed,
we can get a divorce.
How did you get in here?
Like usual.
You're already a grown-up
but you still climbed over the wall?
If my brother caught you
he would have broken your legs.
He does not care
if you're the second eldest son of the Zhou family.
I don't mind my legs breaking
if it means seeing you.
Why did we break up?
I didn't want to get married so soon.
My father's will says
that only after marriage could we inherit the family wealth.
You said it before.
My mother signed
all the documents today.
Zhou family is now in my brother's hands.
He seems like a nice guy.
Although I don't know him very well.
But it looks like,
even if he controlled the Zhou family,
he is not going to give you a hard time.
You don't understand the situation.
You are merely a tailor.
What would you know?
Yeah, I don't understand the situation.
So, would the second eldest son of the Zhou family
please climb over the wall to get out?
Quietly
and discreetly,
okay?
Little tailor,
would you still love me
if I get a divorce?
Zhousheng Chen.
I will keep this here.
It's not convenient for you to travel with.
I will put it in the bedside cupboard.
In case of emergency
and I am out on a business trip,
you can get it yourself.
Here, the house key.
Hong Xiaoyu still lives here.
It's not appropriate if I took the key, right?
She locks her room.
I am giving you the key to the front door
and my bedroom.
Let's go, I will walk you downstairs.
You'll walk me downstairs?
I just walked you up though.
And now you want to walk me down?
I will take out the trash on the way.
Take care.
Wait for my call.
I will.
Wait.
Calling each other three times a day
would be too troublesome.
Is it interfering with your work?
I can adjust the time
to make the phone call.
We are married now,
let's make it easier.
If you want to talk to me,
let me know in advance.
If I am available,
then we'll call each other.
Okay.
Bye.
Miss Shi.
The trash collection
is not here yet
at this time.
You got the time wrong.
The garbage bin will only be here at 6 o'clock.
Yes, I got the time wrong.
I have to go in now.
The is a perfect song
for this moment.
♫ The day we met ♫
♫ Time froze ♫
♫ It's your smiling eyes ♫
♫ That made the hustle and bustle of the world gone ♫
♫ Every moment ♫
I should've given her a hug.
♫ Drives away the weariness of the past ♫
♫ Love spreads ♫
A hug would be perfect.
♫ I'm glad you're here ♫
♫ One more day with you ♫
She would also want me to hug her.
♫ Love gets deeper ♫
♫ Making it a poem ♫
♫ Kissing through the long years ♫
Why didn't I see him off
at the airport?
♫ Wrapping love around my fingertips ♫
I should've changed the flight.
♫ Make a vow in silence ♫
At least I could have had a meal with her.
♫ Embrace again ♫
♫ A few forever ♫
I could at least stay with him a little longer.
♫ Nothing will change ♫
♫ With the same warm sunny day ♫
♫ Give you my true love ♫
♫ Thank you for being there ♫
Chen.
I gotta tell you something.
Shi Yi has an admirer
called Wang Yingdong.
He is supposedly pretty talented and famous.
As someone experienced.
I need to warn you,
long-term long-distance relationship
is not ideal for marital stability.
You should get back as soon as possible.
You wouldn't want your wife's heart stolen by others.
You never got married.
So what experience do you have?
I was better than you
when I was young.
I had experience dating.
You, are merely luckier than me
to have met Shi Yi.
Otherwise,
I don't think anyone would've wanted you.
Am I wrong?
You're right.
My personality
is indeed not ideal for marriage.
No, no, no.
You are not a perfect date,
but perfect for marriage.
I hope that's what she thinks.
With the presence of a rival,
you can never take it lightly.
Did you eat them all?
Are you upset?
What happened?
The engagement banquet didn't go as planned?
Your family and their family
had a fight?
Or was his mother mean to you again?
The engagement banquet was cancelled.
Don't be sad, don't be sad, don't be sad.
We're okay.
That dumb chemistry professor?
You are a pretty girl,
we can easily find someone like him.
Seriously.
What?
You fooled me.
I am married.
To be more specific, we got our marriage certificate.
No wonder that day.
Yes, on that day.
Not bad, not bad.
You two are good.
I am still confused.
I haven't told my parents yet.
You haven't?
Zhousheng Chen said
he would go to visit them with me
after he comes back from his business trip.
That would be more formal.
True.
It would be better
if you two went back together.
I seriously want to know
what on earth
did he do
to persuade you to get registered with him.
Nothing special.
It's exactly because of that,
and even seeming somewhat stupid,
that it shows his sincerity.
My thoughts were in a mess at that time.
But I had a strong feeling
at that time.
If I didn't say yes.
I would definitely regret it
for the rest of my life.
Congrats, congrats.
A married girl.
I will tell you more about the story tonight.
Let's go to the supermarket first.
I just saw that the fridge was empty.
How did you manage to survive these days?
No matter how I lived through the past few days,
it was nowhere as exciting as yours.
Let me have a look.
What a big yellow diamond.
You're a married girl now.
You guys are raising that crab
like your child.
Even the crab eats better food than I do.
If you won't eat it,
then what's the point of keeping it?
Do crabs drink yogurt?
Are you talking to me?
I thought you were my friend.
I am sorry.
It's okay.
Why didn't you tell me you had left?
You caused me to embarrass myself.
I called you, you didn't respond.
I took that guy
was you.
I even asked a super embarrassing question.
Damn it.
I thought about it carefully.
I don't think crabs can drink yogurt.
That man has been following us
since we walked out of the supermarket.
Yeah.
Back at the supermarket,
what on earth did you say to him?
I simply asked him
if crabs drink yogurt?
I didn't even know what I was doing.
What a coincidence.
You guys live here as well?
Don't get me wrong.
I am not stalking you.
I rent an apartment here.
Bye.
Does he really live here?
Let's go.
Seriously.
After receiving your marriage message from someone,
we moved away
and there is a surprise in the bedroom,
I wish you a happy wedding.
♫ The day we met ♫
♫ Time froze ♫
Chen,
♫ It's your smiling eyes ♫
why don't you let Shi Yi
put that on for you?
I don't want to bother her
♫ That made the hustle and bustle of the world gone ♫
with this kind of task.
This is not a task, it's romance.
♫ Every moment ♫
♫ Drives away the weariness of the past ♫
Maybe someday,
when she sees me
wearing the wedding ring,
♫ Love spreads ♫
would it be romantic.
♫ I'm glad you're here ♫
♫ One more day with you ♫
You even engraved something on it.
The 7th day of April, lunar calendar
♫ Love gets deeper ♫
7th day of April, lunar calendar.
♫ Making it a poem ♫
♫ Kissing through the long years ♫
♫ Wrapping love around my fingertips ♫
♫ Make a vow in silence ♫
♫ Embrace again ♫
♫ A few forever ♫
♫ Nothing will change ♫
♫ With the same warm sunny day ♫
♫ Give you my true love ♫
♫ Thank you for being there ♫
Recording Studio
Wipe your sweat.
It's 40 degrees right now
and there's no air-conditioner.
Are you not afraid of getting a heat stroke?
The air-conditioner broke down a few days ago
and it produces a lot of noise.
That's why we had to switch it off to record.
In the past when there was no air-conditioner,
our predecessors made it through,
didn't they?
Your scientist fiancé.
Married.
Okay, married.
Is there any difference?
Living separately immediately after getting your marriage certificate.
Of course, there is, we are legally married now.
Are you legally occupying him?
From his heart to his body.
Keep it down!
All right.
Let me ask you something serious then.
What's he doing there for two months?
To do
microanalysis and semi-micro analysis
of Venus's surface.
You're bullying me because I'm not knowledgeable.
It's pretty normal if you don't understand what I said.
I made that up.
Honestly.
I never knew
that you fell in love with
a scientist
whose ambition is to work for the development of human beings.
This type of person
must regard the relation between men and women
as unimportant, right?
Maybe.
Is he interesting?
Yeah.
What do you guys talk about?
Everything.
Starting from
the origins of humans?
And the reason
homo erectus disappeared.
I admire that.
But,
he happens to be my
favorite type.
When I read
historical materials, I would always imagine,
if I were to live in the ancient times,
I would definitely fall in love
with someone who cares for the people.
As a man, you gotta do something
that has nothing to do with fame or love.
Talking about love day and night,
that's not my type.
I don't like
talking about love all the time, either.
However, I prefer
a man who has no ambition.
Instead, loves his family,
loves kids.
In other words,
he needs to be a househusband after marriage
and take care of my family
so that I can be free to do my business.
This type really works for you.
Miss Shi, the car has arrived.
I gotta go,
something just happened at home.
Is it your own family
or your husband's family?
Take a guess.
It must be your husband's family.
A girl in the relationship.
Uncle Lin.
You can wait in the car with the air-conditioner.
It's scorching outside.
I am too old to feel the heat.
Let's go.
Thank you.
What are you
gonna plant here?
Maybe mint.
This is close to the living room.
Mint can repel insects.
It would be pretty much it
after all the furniture has been moved in
this week.
This is from the old madam.
What is it?
Happy
She didn't want to buy them,
so, she made them.
I explained it to her
that we'll put it up after the house is done.
As it would be a waste if we put it up now.
But we won't be newly-weds
when we move in later, right?
It might be weird to put this up later.
Before the wedding ceremony,
you will remain as Miss Shi Yi.
You can admit that he is your husband
after the wedding banquet has been held
and the Xi character has been put up.
Okay.
Seeing him getting married
is the biggest wish of my life.
Thank you for accepting him.
You said it like
he is going to remain single
if he didn't meet me.
He's got
no sense of humor at all.
Only you could put up with that.
I think it's not bad.
Deep down in my heart,
he is like half a son to me.
You are likewise
to be my half-daughter-in-law.
I thought about
doing something for you
to make up for the time when he is not around.
What a coincidence.
I'll be busy for the next two months.
I am glad he won't be in Shanghai.
Or I would be the one feeling bad
if he had to be alone.
You are always so thoughtful.
I'll go check
on their progress.
