The first 200 lines.
Don't sleep.
The anesthesia will wear off in an hour.
Hang in there.
I can't take it anymore.
Still feel dopey?
If you fall asleep again,
I'll pinch your hand.
What's wrong? Too shocked to speak?
If I feel dopey,
I'll pinch you.
I'm not dopey. Why would you pinch me?
Has the drug made you silly?
Try this.
-Thank you, Mrs. He. -You're welcome.
Keeping two dogs is the same as keeping one.
It was no bother.
I think so too.
Braised Meat has put on weight under your care.
Of course!
I purposely prepare healthy food for them.
We have Australian T-bone steaks in the fridge.
We can't eat those. They are for the dogs.
Other people have grandchildren. Well, so do I.
Is there anything wrong with that?
Not a thing.
Yuan Song, here. Try this.
It's too far.
-Help yourself. -Mom.
Yes? I'll cook for you tomorrow.
Here you go.
Aren't you old enough to share?
Even if they turn 50, they're still kids to me.
Keep spoiling her.
Keep it up until she's 50.
I'll be happy to.
Just eat.
Fanxing.
Didn't you say that you went to view houses with Luming?
How was it?
Right. I haven't asked you. Do tell.
What's there to tell?
He's the one viewing the house, not me.
Each was over tens of millions.
He won't decide so soon.
Tens of millions?
The houses must be quite big.
Yes.
Where are they located?
One is by the river.
One is in the suburbs.
Jeez.
The suburbs are really far.
Is it a school district?
I don't know.
See that?
Just a few questions is enough to get under her skin.
All right. I'll stop asking.
I'll ask Luming myself.
Mom.
Why would you do that?
It would seem as though I've said something,
and you have issues on his decision about his own house.
I won't ask.
I was just saying.
Fanxing is right.
He sees you as his future mother-in-law.
Your questions are too sensitive.
-I-- -Mrs. He.
Have some fish. It's really good.
It's good, right? Eat some more then.
Look, there are no bones here.
Here, have some.
Need help?
Sure.
Here you go.
Mosquito bite?
That's right.
Don't you want to know about the dinner with my dad?
How did it go?
I took your advice and talked things out with him.
I won't eat with him again for the next few months.
Why?
My dad's ears are filled with concrete.
He won't listen to me.
I'm thinking of moving.
It's that serious?
Yes, I felt more secure when he didn't know where I lived.
Guess what he got me?
What?
He sent me a Harvard encyclopedia on business management.
And he will get more.
Such a stubborn man is hard to come by.
He's so stubborn that not even air
can get through to him.
Even rich kids have troubles too.
What a relief.
What the heck? Stop it!
Stop it!
-Hey! -Stop it!
Are you two getting back together?
Say one more word and I'll have you killed!
Look how vicious you are.
I wonder what those guys see in you.
Do you have a death wish?
-Come here! -Fanxing.
Fanxing, I'm sorry.
Fanxing.
Where are you going?
Mom!
You two are so annoying.
-Fight outside. I'm watching TV. -Mom, he always bags on me!
-Enough, Fanxing. -Stop!
-Help me, Dad! -You'll yank off his hair!
Will you do it again? Tell me!
Knock it off!
He Fanxing is really too violent.
Seriously, I've never seen her so mad.
I grew up being beaten by her.
I didn't tell you because I'm your lecturer.
It's embarrassing. Secondly, she's your boss.
I can't ruin her image.
She never hit you?
I bet she never did.
You wouldn't forget if she did.
It's so exciting.
Like instance dungeons in games that's beyond my level.
Do you still have feelings for her?
You might be mad at me,
but the fact is...
Why would I be mad?
I have no right to be mad.
What do you mean?
My current situation
is like the scene in Théodore Gudin's painting,
Loss of The East Indiaman Kent.
Is it going to capsize?
That's right, Mom!
I never knew working as a waitress was so tough.
I almost broke my arms!
That's right.
My legs hurt even more!
All that smiling almost gave me wrinkles!
Got it. I won't be a baby about it.
Uncle, my mom is asking for you.
Hello.
How did the house viewing with Fanxing go?
Well...
I think I shouldn't have brought her.
She's sensitive. She'll overthink.
Come on. That's the point!
You want not only her, but also her family to overthink.
Show them how sincere you are.
The world will be on your side.
We'll see.
It threw me off balance now.
Don't be.
Stay steady.
I don't think you should get a loan.
Buy a nicer house with full payment.
If money's an issue, I can lend some to you.
All right. That's great.
I'm working out.
I've got to go. Talk to Minmin.
All right.
I won't give Uncle trouble.
Good night, Mom.
Uncle.
Did you have a fight with Fanxing?
Why? You want us to fight?
No.
But I heard it's not good if a couple never fights.
You're like an old couple who has been together for decades.
There's no youthful passion at all.
What's wrong?
Is there only one type of relationship?
There are platonic and sexual ones.
Apparently, there are also those
who likes playing house like you.
What do you mean by playing house?
Your boyfriend only takes you out to play claw machines,
play video games, or have dinner.
On second thought,
it's not playing house,
but more like keeping a pet.
You...
Now, I'm pissed!
If you're mad, there's still hope.
Just break up with your useless boyfriend.
Wait tables at the Italian place.
Pick it up.
Or go back home.
When you're old, and you drop your chopsticks, I won't pick them up!
Buckle up.
What's wrong?
Tell me.
Are you hungry?
We can eat before hiking.
You always take me to eat. Are you feeding a pig?
Am I not?
You always eat so much.
