Old Boy (Lao Nan Hai / 老男孩)

I know you lost your job entirely because of me.

I'll keep an eye out for openings at other airlines.

You can come to me if you run into any difficulties in the future.

If you have anything to say or want to vent, you can talk to me.

We're friends.

I know about Auntie Wen's problems now.

You can leave that to me. Don't worry about it anymore.

If you do anymore...

it'll be a burden on me.

I'm serious, Wen Li.

Find a man who understands and admires you.

Are we only friends?

I'm going to go now.

Have you seen my phone?

It's right here.

Your girlfriend called last night.

When?

Around midnight.

You were sleeping so I didn't wake you.

All right. Take care.

Ms. Lin.

Were you waiting here?

If I weren't laying in wait here, how could I find you?

Calm down. Let me explain.

You've been gone all night.

You should explain.

Fei Wen Li was feeling down because she lost her job so she took to drinking.

She got alcohol poisoning and was sent to the hospital. You know all that.

Auntie Wen and I took her home from the hospital.

Auntie Wen had to leave.

Someone needed to stay to keep an eye on Wen Li.

So, I stayed and couldn't leave. That's it.

Is she so important that you had to stay all night?

She needs you. Don't I need you?

I know you need me. I know.

It really is my fault that I failed to meet your parents.

Can we not argue about this right now?

I have a flight later today. I'll be gone for three to four days.

Pilots need to go into flight in a good mood.

You don't want your mood to be affected.

I have class to teach later.

My job isn't as important as yours, is it?

It's important. Very important.

They're both important.

It's my fault. Don't be mad anymore.

Don't be mad.

I don't want to fight with you either.

But do you know how worried I was last night?

I've been looking for you since last night.

I wanted to see that you and your ex-girlfriend have nothing to hide.

I wanted to hear you explain the relationship you two have.

- I know. - But what did I end up getting?

I called your phone. She picked up.

She's not my ex-girlfriend. I've explained to you.

It isn't considered an explanation.

Is there no trust between us?

I want to trust you.

Are you playing dumb or do you really not know?

People in love are very sensitive.

You spent a night with her. Who would believe nothing happened?

Do you know how many scenes went through my mind?

You have a very vivid imagination. You can't be like that.

Pilots often spend nights in foreign lands with the opposite sex

even if it's not considered alone in the same room.

As the family member of a pilot, you need to have a broad mind

trust, understanding, and tolerance.

This is the most basic.

Yes, I've already received enough lessons from her yesterday.

A pilot's wife? She needs to revolve around you.

She needs to lose her job for you and lose her sense of self.

I'm not your family member yet.

When I am, it won't be too late for you to brainwash me.

Can we both calm down?

Can you not be like an overly sensitive and paranoid housewife?

You're a chauvinist pig yourself. You're calling me a housewife?

You just want an obedient and beautiful accessory.

Lin Xiao Ou, I don't know how you were in previous relationships

but I can tell you we need to have mutual trust.

If you leave here today, I'll be standing right here. I won't chase after you.

Stop being so unreasonable.

I won't humble myself and crawl to you.

Which part of what you just said showed mutual trust?

Out of the way!

Were you going to run me over?

Well done.

Meeting the parents went so well that you stayed the night?

I'm flying to Australia in the afternoon. I'll be away for two days.

Don't anger your teacher again during this time.

Don't anger her again?

You must have screwed up big time.

You want me to clean up your mess for you?

Brush your teeth.

I need a nap.

Have you received the masks?

They're the latest anti-pollution masks.

Remember to share with Xiao Ou.

You haven't mentioned Xiao Ou in a long time.

Why are you suddenly concerned about her?

Kindness for no reason is a front for evil intentions. Talk.

Has something happened with you and Wang Shan?

Nothing's going on.

The problem is...

She's too good to me.

You can stop if you want to show off your happy life.

I'm going to hang up. I'm not interested in hearing it.

I'm not showing off.

You asked me how things are between us.

Wang Shan packs my lunch nearly every day.

She has an umbrella ready outside my lab before it's even raining.

She takes care of me very well

but she has been negligent with her studies.

She's been here for half a year now.

She can't even pass on language and is failing every subject.

I'm guessing she'll be sent back before the semester is over.

Isn't she known as a top student? She'd be kicked out of school?

Do you know what this is? Karma is served when the time is right.

I didn't think she'd be like this.

Her mom is very mad now.

She's ordered her to move back to the dorms

and said she'll cut off her financial resources

if she doesn't focus on her studies.

Isn't that great?

So you two aren't living together now.

What are your plans?

I think she isn't independent enough.

I can't live a life for two people.

That's why I'm looking for a chance...

to talk things through with her.

You said Lin Xiao Ou was too competitive and too independent

so you cheated on her.

Wang Shan makes you the center of her world and revolves around you.

Now you complain that she's not independent enough.

Ye Xin, don't you think there's a problem with you?

Aren't you too selfish?

I admit I'm selfish.

But nobody has the right to strip someone of their chance to turn over a new leaf.

I really regret breaking up with Xiao Ou.

- But next-- - Stop.

Don't repent to me. What are you thinking of doing?

I'm not thinking of doing anything.

Can't I just ask if Xiao Ou is doing well?

You're my sister. Why are you never on my side?

It's best if you stop thinking about her.

Whether she's doing well or not is no longer any of your concern.

Just tell me how she's doing.

Just tell me a little bit and I'll hang up. Okay?

No. People need to hold on to their dignity like trees need bark.

A tree will die without its bark. A man is invincible without his dignity.

You're invincible now.

How come I haven't seen Xiao Ou? Is she still sleeping?

Stop trying to find information from me. She and her boyfriend are doing great.

She didn't come home all night. She's staying with her boyfriend.

Then... that's great.

Xiao Ou? Is that you?

I can't talk. Xiao Ou is back.

Wait, don't hang up!

I won't talk. Can I just catch a glimpse of her? Please.

Just one glimpse.

Very nice. You stayed out all night.

Are you at the point where you have to worry about your belly?

What's wrong, Xiao Ou?

What's wrong? Don't cry.

We had a fight!

Why do I always pick the bad men?

It's okay. It's going to be okay. Don't cry.

What's wrong?

What happened?

Fei Wen Li was feeling unwell.

Wu Zheng went to take care of her.

I waited outside his house the whole night.

He only came back in the morning!

That means... he slept at her house for the night!

Don't... let your imagination run wild.

You didn't even ask what happened.

Maybe Wu Zheng really was sleepy

and slept through the night with nothing happening.

Don't jump to conclusions.

I'm mad at him for his attitude.

He... He didn't have any patience in explaining to me.

I really don't know what I like about him!

Wu Zheng has always been like this. You know that.

It wasn't easy for you to get together.

Don't break up because of this undetermined accusation.

But it's been some time since I left his place.

He hasn't called.

He wasn't worried that I didn't sleep well

and had to drive home this morning.

Yes, Wu Zheng has done wrong on this point.

When I see Shi Fei, I'll have him educate Wu Zheng.

It's okay. Don't cry.

Don't let your imagination run wild. It'll be okay.

What is it?

There's something I want to discuss with you.

I might have to be absent from today's individual study session after school.

Are you busy with something?

Are you thinking of ditching school when your dad is away on business?

I'm not.

Zhou Zhou is going abroad soon.

I thought we'd throw him a small farewell party

with our band's final practice.
