Be with You (好想談戀愛)

Episode 25

I asked Man An to come over to chat today.

I wanted to give her some money to start a business to make her leave

but she wouldn't accept it.

As for my request that she leave you, she didn't outright reject it

and said she'd think about it.

Since she knows that she should back out, don't think about it any more.

Let's just end this like this.

Don't you have a lot of goals and dreams that you want to accomplish?

Just focus on those.

I will do my best to support you and help you.

Thank you, Dad.

Mama Xia, here's the cola you wanted.

Help me pour one third of it into the pig knuckle stew.

Okay.

Mama Xia, I've poured in the cola

and I've turned down the heat so that it slowly boils.

Do you want to...

Mama Xia?

You seem out of it today. Is something wrong?

It's nothing.

I'm just wondering how Madam is doing.

Who's cooking for them these days?

Don't worry too much.

Maybe they already found a new housekeeper.

That's true.

But will the new housekeeper's cooking be to their liking?

Madam drinks a specific juice everyday.

It's different from Monday to Saturday.

For example, Madam would like to drink kiwi juice today.

Tomorrow, she'll want carrot and celery juice.

And it has to be bought from that one vendor.

Because that grandma doesn't use any pesticides on her farm.

So every time I go to the market and see that vendor

I buy it quickly and bring them home.

No wonder I saw some carrots and celery in the fridge.

I was wondering which dish needed so many.

I bought them?

I've gotten used to it after so many years.

Mama Xia, if you're so worried about Madam just go visit her tomorrow.

Go visit her?

But Papa Xia...

I think it's okay.

You're just visiting her as a friend, not working for her.

Yeah! We can be considered friends.

Right!

Thank you for reminding me, Xin Ru. It's great to have you around.

Mommy, then shouldn't you thank me?

If your son wasn't so great how could he have brought Xin Ru home?

Take it easy.

Hello, everyone!

- Ying Qian! - Auntie Ping!

- Ying Qian! - Auntie Ping!

Why are you here?

Because I miss you.

Mom, he just misses your food.

No, I really did miss Auntie Ping!

I think about you before I fall asleep.

Have you been eating well these days?

Without you around, I have no appetite.

Look, I've gotten skinnier.

Yeah.

Zheng Ying Jian, how old are you?

Stop acting cute. She's my mom!

Okay, go sit in the living room. The food will be ready soon.

No, I have to be by your side because I missed you too much.

You just want to eat while I'm cooking.

- It smells so good - I'm making stewed pork knuckles.

Pork knuckles?

Man An.

I'll go help out.

Xin Ru, let's not disturb them.

When are you free?

Let's go out, okay?

Yeah, I've wanted go out with you before going back to work.

The more the merrier.

Okay, when do you guys want to go out?

- Whatever works for you. - Same.

How about this day?

I'm working the night shift and it's the day before Man Wu goes back to work.

- Okay? - Okay.

Let me write it down.

I think that Fatty Wang and I were born enemies.

I put everything on display the way he wants

and two minutes later, he changes his mind!

He said something about how the chandelier was no good

and the color of the rug was bad.

Oh please! He chose all of them!

What's with that Fatty Wang? He loves targeting you.

Yeah!

He's so picky all the time.

And he always wants you to take care of it.

Yeah.

I know!

Fatty Wang likes you!

Fang Hui Shan, let me tell you

although I occasionally like eating meat buns

I will never be able to swallow a fatty steamed pork bun like Fatty Wang.

Give me a break, okay!

Swallow it! Swallow it...

Stop it!

Manager. Why haven't you left yet?

We're going to the movies. Do you want to come?

I have something to do.

- But... - Hi.

- Hi. - Hi, Li Qi.

- Were you waiting for Man Li? - Yes.

Since Li Qi is taking you home we won't bother you.

Manager, bye bye.

We'll give you two space in the elevator.

We'll take the stairs.

I want to take the elevator.

Haven't you noticed that your butt has been sagging lately?

You should use the stairs to exercise.

- Really? - Really.

Look. You haven't been exercising enough.

You need to exercise.

- Bye bye. - Bye!

Do you remember that we're taking the same days off this month?

Of course I remember. Where do you want to go?

Since we the whole day, we can go somewhere far.

Where is your home?

Nearby.

Not where you're renting. Where's your real home?

Taichung. Why?

Can you bring me to visit your parents during our time off?

You're willing to go meet my parents?

Since you've had dinner with my family I should go see your parents too.

Or do you think it's too soon?

- It's okay, we can do it another time. - No, I'm really happy about it.

I'll make arrangements.

It's going up.

Man Wu, the car keys aren't on the table.

Where did you put them?

I put them on the table. Look around.

Man Wu is always putting things all over the place!

It's really not here.

I can't find it.

Then look to see if it's by the books.

What is this?

This? It's...

a box to hold paper clips.

A box to hold paper clips?

A box to hold paper clips?

See? I told you it's a box to hold paper clips.

Why didn't you believe me?

Did you think that I was going to propose to you?

You want to marry me that badly?

Stop being shameless.

Hurry up, where are the keys?

Keys?

The keys are right here.

Why did you hide them there?

Let's get ready. I have to go home.

- Okay. - Hurry.

It's okay. If you prepared it, I'll love eating it.

Good thing I put you away.

Thank you, Mama Xia. It's getting late.

I need to go home.

You're going home? Wait!

I've prepared some guava for you to bring home.

Wait.

Zheng Ying Qian, are you a pig? All you do is eat.

Here, this is all for you.

Such a big bag!

Look at how great Mom is to you.

Yeah, thank you, Mama Xia.

You always give me so much fruit.

You don't have to thank me.

You live alone, so you need to make sure you're getting enough nutrients.

Okay, get back early. Be careful on the road.

Good night.

- Ying Qian, good night. - Good night, bye bye.

Bye bye.

- Open it slowly. - Okay.

Eat.

Xin Ru, you're leaving?

Yes, good night.

- Good night, bye bye. - I'm taking her home.

Bye bye.

Mom, I'm back.

Come some eat fruit.

Hello.

Zheng Pig Qian, what are you doing here?

Eating fruit.

I know you're eating fruit. I'm asking why you came over.

Be more polite.

He came over because he misses me.

Mom!

And I asked Man An before coming over.

Really? Xia Man An!

Man An's not here.

Where did she go?

She went with your dad to buy food and beer.

Yeah, Papa Xia was really happy to see me.

He wanted to have a few drinks with me.

What?

You have my mom feeding you fruit

and my dad going out to buy food and beer for you?

Where do you think you are?
