The Pursuit of Happiness on VIKI

I'm really sorry

to have made you feel so troubled.

I've troubled you for even longer right?

It's been 15 years.

The best time of your life, those 15 years, were wasted on me.

It wasn't a waste.

All these years,

you were always my pillar, spiritually and emotionally.

Subtitles by the Happiness Hunters on VIKI.

Every day, every night the crossroads of time and space

Every minute, every second awaiting with unease

What to say, what to do, how to exhaust all my clues

Let you understand, let you hear my cry for help

Many words can’t be said,

words mystify people

I beg the lord to help me,

Just a hug is enough

How I hope that the one beside you is me,

holding on to you is my hand

In front of me is your smile,

How I hope, beside you, in front of me

How I hope that the one beside you is me

How I hope that the one beside you is me

holding on to you is my hand

In front of me is your smile,

how I hope, beside you, in front of me

How I hope that the one beside you is me

Episode 7

All these years,

you've always been my pillar, spiritually and emotionally.

Even during the days of our breakup, we never once ceased contact.

You made me feel

that I deserved to be loved.

That you needed me.

Know that this is very important to me.

Because...

Holding one to the hope of reconciling with you made me feel

I could convince myself that haven't lost the ability to love.

But my existence got in the way

of many other possibilities.

It was my choice for you to continue staying in my life.

Deeply unwilling to let go of you.

But Hai Lun appeared.

This is your life moving on to the next chapter.

It was me acting like a childish kid who never grew up.

Selfishly hoping

that nothing had changed, like the past 10 years.

How could this be possible?

How could this be possible?

Lei Lei.

All this time, freely wandering...

To have an address I could send postcards to,

this made me feel that in my hometown,

there was someone who still valued me.

This made me feel at ease.

Because of your presence, so...

no matter how far away I went, I would always...

I would always not feel alone.

What a pity.

I wasn't the motivation for your willingness to settle down.

I really love Hai Lun very much.

Looks like

our best chance,

our best times, have truly passed.

He Wei Ting,

the love I have for you

comes to an end here.

You'll always be my good friend.

Because the medley of loneliness

Lets us rely on each other

Embracing each others' sorrow

Even if possession is not possible

We are a medley of loneliness

Thus coming together

Those feelings that undulated for you

Come, let's go for a spin.

We're leaving.

If I were a flower,

who would I bloom for

If I were a bird,

where should I fly towards

The sparkle from a star,

can’t concoct an astrological symphony

The medley of a tree,

composes a single weight

Turns out Sister Lei Lei has never stopped loving you.

Between me and her, we're just friends.

Wei Ting. Turns out you really do love me.

Why couldn't I be as brave as you?

Why must we obtain my father's approval to be together?

Hai Lun.

I can't let you, because of me,

become estranged from your family and loved ones.

Give me some time.

I will definitely show some results

to let your father acknowledge me.

For my sake,

can you not change the way you live?

For your sake, I can leave my family.

Whatever you want to do, I will do it with you.

Wherever you go, I will go.

Whatever you want to do, I'll do it with you.

Hai Lun, listen to me.

I haven't failed yet.

I have just started to gain the acknowledgement from your father and to get his consent for us.

How could I run away from this battle now?

Even though I don't like what your father has arranged for me,

but I will definitely use my own methods

to make him feel secure and willing to hand over his baby to me.

Okay.

After putting away your fragility, you still need to move forward

A disguise is like protection

Broken balloons still flying in the blue sky

I still can't find my dream's remains

Silent world, let go of my hand

Silent indifference, who will take me away?

In your eyes,

I can't see myself.

Everyone hates me.

Other than finding myself, I don't have any other needs.

Where am I now?

Frankly, I confessed to Hai Lun yesterday too.

But she was sleeping.

Why was it so sudden?

You gave me the courage.

Seeing how brave you were in facing your own love,

I was thinking,

I should put my crush to an end too.

If I'm rejected by Hai Lun and I give up later,

I can make a clean break this way.

We are really losers.

At the least, we can overcome the pain and loneliness in one night.

Anyways, we can always start over.

You still can't let go?

Should we give up?

A 15 year old love...

Wow.

How much more time are you going to spend before moving on?

I think that confessing is another matter

but being rejected for love needs more courage.

Ji An Lei. Frankly,

I think you are much braver than me.

How cowardly did you think I was?

Alright, as punishment for mistaking your appearance,

I've decided that I'll be your plumber for two months.

Today, the sun is still the sun.

And you're still the same person. You are still you.

But I don't know why,

when the sun is shining on you, you look...

Really pretty.

So...

have you said farewell to your love for Hai Lun?

I don't know.

Hai Lun.

She is my little sun.

Just like the sunlight that we are getting now.

When we're enjoying this kind of warmth,

can we just decide

to smile and say "Sorry, I don't want you anymore".

When you talked about pig trotters the other day,

from excitement to missing...

it was probably yearning.

I was here for a period of time, hence I...

Hence, last night, I specially cooked some for you.

I was afraid that they would not be tender enough,

hence, I stewed it till 3 am.

See if this suits the taste that you're missing.

See if this is the taste you missed.

This is for you to eat.

Don't let them find out or they will snatch it from you.

I really like her smile and laugh.

But, I think that now

the only one who can make Hai Lun smile

is He Wei Ting.

What you mean is that

you have decided to give up?

I'm helping her find what she wants.

Helping doesn't mean letting go, it's about fortune.

Huang Yi Kang, you really know how to comfort yourself.

At the least, this was an experience to be had.

Did you know that in my room, I grew some seeds in a pot?

I don't even know what kind of seeds they are.

Regardless of what they will grow up into,

I would accept that.

If it were me, I wouldn't be able to be patient,

I would want to establish clearly what I have planted.

And what they will grew into.

But doesn't that take away all the anticipation and surprise?

Yes but it will also cut down on many

misunderstandings and disappointments.

But it's correct too.

Why should one establish everything so clearly?

To spend so much effort to decide what's right and wrong.

It will only cause pain to ourselves.

Do you know that those seeds that I was taking about?

No matter what they grow into, I'll accept it.

I will happily accept it.

Just like He Wei Ting and Hai Lun now.

But you can can smile and face it too.
