One and a Half Summer ( 一又二分之一的夏天 )

Episode 23

Why are you looking at me and not studying your phrases?

If I keep looking at these English vocabulary, I feel like I won't be able to love anymore.

Don't try to find excuses.

If you don't memorize your vocab words, then you won't be able to finish level four of your class.

If you don't finish level four of your class, then you won't graduate. If you don't graduate, then you can't find work.

If you can't find work, you won't be able to take care of me. Those were your words.

I know.

Why do you think there's up to level four of English vocabulary?

Ting Ting, I really can't memorize anymore. Give me some motivation.

Okay, okay. Once you finish memorizing, I'll take you to eat barbecue meat.

- That's not enough. - Not enough?

Then what motivation do you want?

Memorize 10 and you give me a kiss.

In your dreams.

50.

You're the one that said it. You can't back out.

Hi!

Luo Man, Xiu Qi, you guys are back?

Yeah.

I brought drinks.

Jun Cai, you're so concentrated on memorizing. Take a break.

Don't bother him.

Xiu Qi, how's your dad?

Not fully recovered but he should be fine.

That's good. Luo Man must have helped a lot by going there.

I'm so clumsy. It'll be good if I didn't add trouble.

Who said? My dad was able to recover this fast because of you.

These few days, you didn't get much rest keeping my mom and I company at the hospital.

You must be tired after that long trip. Go back to the dorm and rest.

That's right Brother Luo. I'll go to work for you. Go rest for today.

It's okay. I'm not tired. I'll go to work.

- You can't. - You can't.

I'm going back to the dorm anyways.

Come with me Luo Man?

Okay.

Finally memorized it all. Ting Ting-

Where's Ting Ting? She already left?

What about what she promised me?

What did Ting Ting promise you?

I don't think I'll be able to love anymore.

Hello?

I wasn't in the office this afternoon.

You have a meeting later? I didn't bother you right?

Why are you here?

I can't come find you if I don't have a reason?

Didn't we already say it clearly? You shouldn't have a reason to see me.

Then do you need a reason too when you waited for me everyday outside the school?

We were still engaged then.

It doesn't look like the engagement is canceled either.

If you came because of that, I understand.

I'll handle it soon.

Okay, then.

This is the concert ticket you gave me before.

It's tonight.

We said we would go together.

I'm busy. Get someone else to go with you.

Are you really busy or do you not even want to be friends with me?

Shu Qing.

This world doesn't revolve around you.

Secretary Zhang, get the car ready.

Okay, then.

I won't bother you working.

Rest more.

Shu Qing.

I'll take you.

How was it? Happy?

- Yeah. My dad finally- - Not your dad.

I meant Brother Luo.

I shouldn't call her Brother Luo now. It feels unhonourable.

I should change it to sister-in-law.

I meant Luo Man coming to see you. Are you happy?

What? She was just worried about my dad. Don't think too much.

Why is she not worried about my dad?

I don't want to explain it to you. Even if I did, you wouldn't get it anyways.

You're obviously so happy yet you're still denying.

Wang Min Qiang.

Clean? I didn't have any socks to wear anyways. Thanks.

Our Confidant Dage also has a time he doesn't want to explain.

But that's right. Sometimes love doesn't need an explanation at all.

I think it's almost set.

Xiu Qi.

Tell me. What did you and Luo Man do these days?

Nothing.

That's impossible. Tell me.

Keep kicking.

Reveal a bit. What did you guys do?

Luo Man, what did you do with Li Xiu Qi these days?

What do you want me to say?

A heart moving moment.

Something like hugging, holding hands, or supporting each other with love.

How is that possible?

You love to imagine too much.

Ting Ting, I beg you, I am really tired.

How is it possible that nothing happened?

- I'm asleep. - Luo Man, if you don't say it, I won't be able to sleep tonight.

Hurry and tell me!

Song Qing, I won't be quiet today.

Okay.

Don't be so boring.

I'm asking because I'm worried about you and Xiu Qi's relationship.

There's no change in Li Xiu Qi and my relationship. It's still the same as before.

But ever since he confessed,

our interactions has been awkward.

How can that be? I think your interactions are good, maybe even better than before.

Think about how long we've known each other.

Being friends with each other is already a habit.

Then you don't have any feelings for him at all?

I don't know.

Maybe it's because we know each other too well.

I can't tell whether my feelings for him

is those for a friend or someone I like.

It should be more for a friend.

Who said friends can't become lovers?

Look at Jun Cai and I. Aren't we doing fine? You're thinking too much.

I think Xiu Qi likes me because he's been with me for a long time.

The feelings he has for me is more like those for a friend or family.

That's not true. He liked you since he was 7.

How do you know?

Don't leave!

Ting Ting!

7?

He's here.

Hurry and look.

I stole it when Confidant Ge was showering.

Go away.

Okay. Look at it by yourself. We'll keep a lookout.

Let's go.

The Big Master, Luo Man Drawing Collection

You bought me bread. Treat this work as me repaying you.

Does Qiqi likes to eat bread?

I forgot to do the Math paper! Teacher will kill me if she finds out! Help a brother out. Thanks. Love you! Hurry.

I forgot to do the Math paper! Teacher will kill me if she finds out! Help a brother out. Thanks. Love you! Hurry.

Time's up. Students, pass your tests towards the front.

Luo Man.

Li Xiu Qi.

Sorry Classmate, can you send it up?

You're really stingy.

You got a scholarship and you treat me to a movie.

So you have to keep this a secret.

Don't worry, repay is a must for those who have been nice to me.

Just treat me to a meal.

No problem.

Xiu Qi collected all these things. Looks like he really likes you.

Look. I told you Xiu Qi likes Luo Man.

Why else would someone put all these useless things together?

You guys still look when I told you not to.

We didn't look.

Okay. Hurry and pack up, I have to go back.

Okay. Here, let me cover it.

Jun Cai, who's bed sheet is this? It has a smell.

Wang Min Qiang's.

Believe me now?

I never thought

that Xiu Qi always-

That's true.

It's rare that someone as outstanding as Xiu Qi would be so faithful.

There's too much pressure.

How can you have pressure? You should be happy.

I am happy that Xiu Qi likes me

but other than happiness, there's also a bit of unease.

It's fine to be not at ease. When liking someone,

you will not be at ease. That means you care about him.

Love relies on impulse.

If you're too calm, then you're not respectful of your love.

- Is that so? - Of course.

Actually, you've always liked Xiu Qi in your heart.

For Zhang Hao, you like him only because he doesn't like you.

Things you can't obtain will always be the best.

Really?

Of course.

So you should try to interact more with Xiu Qi.

Never thought he would suddenly be so cold. Not even going to the concert with you.

But he brought me here. It's okay.

Okay, let's not talk about him.

Today's concert was really spectacular.

I haven't heard rock music in so long.

Made me remember my time in highschool.

You listened to rock music back then?

I was young once.

What was the band I liked back then?

I'm a bit hungry. Let's go eat something.

Okay. I'll take you to a special place today.

What band did I like?

Rock music.

How is it? Never been to a place like this before right?

Why did you suddenly bring me here?

You ate here before?

Have a change. Life is about experiencing.

Don't look at how dirty this place is. The food here is great.

Boss, what good things do you have today? Recommend some.

Skewers.

Take a look.

How is it? Good right?

I never tried it before.

I'm surprised. It takes good.

Of course. I recommended it.

Here, cheers.

Cheers!

I'm very happy today. Thank you Ding Ling Jie
