Lovestore at the Corner (Kang Nong Li De Na Jia Dian / 巷弄裡的那家書店)

During summer night

you can see the Milky Way and shooting stars.

The foolest between them

took an oath to do great things in the future.

And not live in vain.

Search his bag!

What are you doing?!

Let go!

I wish my dad would die!

No matter how lonely you feel and others don't understand you,

you will never be abandoned.

As for the question that you just asked me.

Don't take it to heart!

I wasn't in a good mood,

So I just said what was on my mind.

I throw tantrums.

It's alright. Don't worry about me.

You think I'm weird, right?

Bali

Should I reply back or not?

If you knew the me of before

you would forgive the me of now.

Zhang Ailing “ Love in a Fallen City".

Episode 9 - It must hurt.

You're a guest.

It's alright. I'll do it. I won't trouble you.

You should go to the hospital to wrap it.

Brother Qiang, don't worry. It will be fine with some medicine.

Brother Mo Cheng, I'm sorry.

I'm fine so no need to worry.

I'm just worried about you. Why were these troublemakers looking for you?

Ah Bi, this kid, you really don't know how to think

Thank God boss Yang stood up for you.

Or did you want to give your dad another heart attack? If you don't clear this up, you're being irresponsible to everyone.

Ah Bi, don't be afraid.

If you don't speak, the problem won't be solved.

Tell teacher what happened.

Yes, Ah Bi, don't be afraid. We'll be protecting you.

Don't worry and speak out.

Do you still remember the song we heard?

Don't forget. You won't be abandoned.

Now, you all know it.

They won't let go of me.

So are those bad boys the reason why you want to leave?

How could there be tyranny in such as small and simple place?

So you were the classmate standing beside that bicycle store the other day?

I'm sorry. I saw you guys fight from a distance away,

but when I ran into the bicycle shop, no one was there.

Ah Bi, why didn't you tell teacher

something so important like this ?

I wanted to tell teacher but . . .

Ah Bi, don't you trust teacher?

It's not that!

Chou Gui's family owns a temple. Their influence is very strong.

The people who are brought to their attention are unable to hide even if they wanted to.

If I told teacher, the whole situation would get worse.

And plus,

I was afraid my parents would be worried. So I thought, the best way,

would be to just act like this never happened.

These students don't misbehave in front of me.

It's my fault. I didn't notice the tyranny amongst the students.

Ah Bi, I'm sorry.

I will talk to the school about it and see if we can help you.

What do you mean by, 'how you are going to help?'

What see what to do?! We'll call the police! If it's not enough, we'll go to court!

Yes, I also want to call the police.

We're so many witnesses anyway.

What is to be afraid of?! I'm calling the police.

Hey, hey!

Ke Xin.

Don't worry. Mr. Chiang must have his worries too.

Ke Xin, it hasn't been that long since you came.

Owner Yang opened a bookstore to live off of and is so naiive.

The only people he sees are people who read a lot.

You don't understand the influence and power of this area.

In this place,

Stupid Gwae's father, Black Gwae

is the real leader.

Fine, now everyone is scared of him,

and even the police is scared of him. Does that mean Ah Bi has to continue getting bullied by them?

This incident

is related to Chou Gwae's family and their influence and power over this area.

We cannot be irrational. Instead, we have to come up with a plan.

We'll think of a way to solve Ah Bi's problem.

That's right, Owner Yang has already been injured this badly.

I think that we should rest for today and think of something tomorrow.

Old Liu's shop

Come, eat now that it's hot. Quickly!

Owner, I will change your medicine when you are done eating.

When you return, remember to not let your wounds touch water.

Ah, Bi, eat. Aren't you hungry?

Ah Bi, eat a bit more.

Everyone will think of a way to solve your problem.

What way do you guys have?

I can't eat. You eat.

What kind of world is this?

Why would someone hurt others like this?

How come the heart of a ten year old child is so black?

It angers me!

Is there really a period that we missed?

During that time period, the sky was more blue, the tears of people were more pure.

Are the same as the writer Gu Du?

Trying to remember the good memories of the past, and disappointed in the change of the society today.

I think I also think so too.

It feels as if we've missed a purer time period.

Is your trauma ok?

Besides hurting a bit, it should be fine. Ahh!

I'll take you to the hospital!

I'll take you to the hospital! It hurts a lot! Wait a bit!

I think I've remembered something.

You remember something?

What do you remember?

Just now... - If you're asking whether

I've recalled any of Xiang Shu Lei's memories...

Nope.

Hey! I was really worried about your trauma!

Is it fun tricking me?

You were worried about Ah Bi.

I wanted to make you laugh.

I'll think of a way to solve Ah Bi's problem.

Don't worry too much.

I suspect your trauma is fake!

It really hurt! Really?

Just eat already.

Didn't you want to eat to binge eat out of anger?

That's what I'm doing.

I'm sorry . . .

I really did my best. - Did your best?

At the time, you were the one that promised my mom she'd get better.

Because of that, my mom decided to go ahead with the surgery. And now she's dead on the operating table.

You just want to shirk responsibility by saying you did your best.

You murderer!

I'm sorry.

What good does your apology do me now!

Sir, please don't get agitated.

Sorry, sorry. Sir, please stay calm.

I'm the President of this hospital. I'll find someone to answer any follow-up questions.

We promise to be fully accountable to you.

Come with me!

Come!

Sir, please sit for now. Our President will solve things in a bit.

What's the success rate of brain tumor surgeries?

90%

Then that means a 10% failure rate.

What guarantees can you give?

I...

Is this your first day as a doctor?

You don't know what you can and cannot guarantee.

How can you guarantee the patient a full recovery?

I told the patient the procedure's success rate.

But didn't make promises for a full recovery.

I just said a few comforting words,

"Your surgery will definitely succeed"

Are you changing the story? You might as well go back to being an intern.

If I take care of patients, I'm wrong. If I don't take care of patients, I'm also wrong.

Don't look for excuses for your mistakes.

Your brother would never make excuses.

You're comparing me to Xiang Shu Lei?

I'm a doctor, he runs the hospital. I can save lives, can he save lives?

Do you understand how to run a hospital? Can you do it?

If I hand this hospital over to you right now, even with all your medical knowledge, the hospital would close down in a few days

If your brother had been here, this hospital probably would've expanded by now

And then we could be taking care of even more patients. Unlike you,

where patients die and people lose their trust in this hospital

If you feel that Xiang Shu Lei is that important, then go and find him!

Hey! Xiang Shu Hou!

What's wrong?

Go find Xiang Shu Lei. Dad thinks he's more capable, more important!

If he comes back, then I can be the one to leave.

Didn't you warn me

not to mention the hospital or your father in front of Xiang Shu Lei?

Why are you like this suddenly?

What's wrong with you?

I was wrong to vent my anger on you. I'm sorry.

I just had a quarrel with my father.

But it was the first time.

He was praising Shu Lei in front of me, saying he's more knowledgeable on how to run a hospital.

Even saying that our hospital would've expanded by now if he were here.

I have no way to accept this!

Why can't you accept it?

I don't think I'm worse than my brother.

Based on what do you think your brother is worse than you?

Have you really understood him?

What do you know?

I've been trying hard since I was llittle

but in my dad's eyes my brother is better.

I think that no matter how hard I try . . . - It's all for nothing, right?

Why haven't you considered that

Shu Lei needs your father's love as well.

You just claimed all of your parents' love.

Stepping over Shu Lei, thinking of yourself as high and mighty

You're really selfish.

I admit I'm selfish and haven't considered his feelings.

What about you? Aren't you selfish and haven't hurt anyone?

Stop the car here, I'll go by myself.

You're ditching work now just because you randomly want to do something else.

Moreover, to go to Danshui.

Plus... -You just don't understand.

I want to go anyway!
