Love 'til the End of Summer (Rush to the Dead Summer / Xia Zhi Wei Zhi / 夏至未至)

You loved to cry when you were young.

You cried when you were sick, cried when you took medicine

and you still cried in kindergarten.

You cried at every little thing.

You were like a little dragon king.

If I hadn't cried back then

you wouldn't have given up your own dreams.

Silly child, is there any dream better than being a mother?

I put together a love fund for you.

In the future, when you get a girlfriend and am going to get married

you can use it.

Mom, when I get married, I'll take your hand and tell my wife

"Do you see? This is the woman I love the most."

"You can only be second."

Nonsense.

Are you tired? Why don't you rest?

I'm not tired.

Where's your father?

He's taking a nap next door.

- Should I get him? - No, no.

He doesn't get much time to rest.

Ang Ang.

Get along well with your dad in the future.

He only seems unreasonable and unyielding on the surface.

But in reality, he is softer on the inside than I am.

I know. Our star signs are probably just incompatible.

That's why I'm most worried about the two of you.

You'll have to keep an eye on us so we don't fight.

I can't be with you two forever. I'll get old one day.

In my mind, you'll never age.

You're such a sweet talker.

I suddenly want to eat the stir-fried chicken with chili peppers

from the store on the side street by our house.

Mom, the doctor said you can't have spicy food.

I really want to eat it.

Just a bite.

Just a small bite.

All right.

I'll buy it for you. Don't tell Dad.

I'll keep it secret for you.

Okay, I'll go now.

I once thought... I still had many chances.

At the very least, she would see me get married and have kids.

And just like how she held my hand when I was young

she would hold my child's hand and skate across the ice.

However, this is all impossible now.

In the twinkling of an eye, everything has changed.

I...

no longer have a mother.

From now on, I can no longer be

willful, sentimental, and clueless.

Lu Zhi Ang is so strong. I didn't see him cry.

The more he's like this, the more worried I am.

How could this have happened?

I was only gone for exams for a few days.

This was so sudden.

Yes, it wasn't even a month in total.

It seems humans are very fragile.

Li Xia.

I haven't contacted you in a month. Don't be mad at me.

Of course I'm mad.

You didn't tell me you were taking exams.

Stop pretending. You're terrible at acting.

I thought about it seriously.

I behaved terribly a while back.

I was in a very bad mood back then so I had a poor attitude towards you.

I'm sorry.

You smile when you're happy and am sour-faced when you're unhappy.

That's Cheng Qi Qi. I know you. You don't have to apologize to me.

Of course I have to.

I still felt awful today at the funeral.

Life is unpredictable. Who knows what will happen tomorrow?

We should treasure the people around us.

We shouldn't quarrel over inconsequential things.

It's not worth it, right?

I agree.

Mom?

How come you're calling again?

I know, I know. I already said it hundreds of times.

I'm not the kind of boarding student who only goes back twice a year.

Approaching Qianchuan First High School.

Passengers, please exit from the back.

What's on your mind? We should be getting off.

Mom, you're so tired because you worry about everything on your own.

I also want to leave everything be. I know it would be relaxing that way.

But how can I just drop everything?

Zhi Ang's mother left just like that.

No matter how old a child is, it is still pitiful to lose a mother.

Who knows how hard his life will be now?

Mom, I'm grown up now.

From now on, you won't have to take on everything by yourself.

Dad is always at work.

That's why you had to be strong.

However, I don't want to see you like this.

I'm not going abroad...

partly because I don't want you to be so lonely at home by yourself.

Xiao Si.

It's already enough that you think that.

Mom, this is so hard.

You're so clumsy.

There's no more fruit at home. I'm going out to buy some.

I'll go with you.

Come on.

There are often moments in life when we can see ourselves

through the lives and deaths of other people.

As a result, we have the chance to have another look at

the truly important things that have been neglected.

Qing Tian.

I've decided I'm going to be really, really good to you!

What about you?

What about me?

When I'm 20, will you marry me?

Okay!

You'll support me in anything I do, right?

Yes!

What if I'm a singer?

Aren't you already a singer?

This is a very rare and precious opportunity.

It doesn't happen all the time.

Give me a reply when you're ready.

Qing Tian!

Things will get better and better for us!

Everything's done.

I'm fine.

Thank you for your concern.

It's me.

Yes.

It was late when we discovered it.

Yes.

She was hospitalized for over a month.

She wasn't in much pain when she passed.

Okay.

Don't worry, I'm okay.

Where is Lu Zhi Ang? His phone has been off.

Hello, who is it?

Hello, Uncle Lu? It's Xiao Si.

Is Zhi Ang at home?

His phone has been off. I couldn't reach him.

School starts today.

School is starting?

Hold on a moment. I'll go get him.

Okay, I'll wait for him outside.

Okay.

Zhi Ang?

Zhi Ang?

Lu Zhi Ang, get up!

Look at how you are right now.

You're even drinking?

Can you leave me alone?

Leave you alone?

Do you know school is starting today?

Get to school!

I'm not going.

You've let yourself go so much that you don't even look like yourself.

If your mom saw you like this, she would be so upset!

You're mentioning Mom?

If not because you wouldn't agree to surgery

would Mom have died so soon?

Lu Zhi Ang.

Zhi Ang, what's wrong?

I'll be reading aloud yesterday's main vocabulary words.

Just write down the word in Chinese.

Number one, abandon.

Abandon.

Number two, accompany.

Accompany.

Young man, drinking?

Here, let's drink!

To you.

Here, drink.

Hello, the number you are dialing is turned off.

How is it?

Is it still not going through?

His phone has been off. Uncle Lu can't reach him either.

We can't wait until we have to call the police.

He's in such a bad mental state. Is he going to do something crazy?

This won't do.

We need to gather some people to look for him.

Hello, Uncle Lu?

Xiao Si.

Has Zhi Ang been to school the past two days?

He hasn't been coming since yesterday. I thought he was at home.

He didn't go home?

I haven't seen him for nearly two days.

The police say

they can file a case only after 48 hours has passed.

I'd like you to help, Xiao Si.

Help find him.

See if he's somewhere you guys usually frequent.

Okay.
