I'll already be in another world.

1055

01:
29:08,009 -- 01:29:08,885

It's too bad.

1056

01:
29:10,178 -- 01:29:11,885

I haven't left,

1057

01:
29:13,014 -- 01:29:15,016

But I'm missing you already.

1058

01:
29:17,185 -- 01:29:18,061

Mom,

1059

01:
29:19,153 -- 01:29:20,723

I know, all these years,

1060

01:
29:21,756 -- 01:29:23,997

you've kept a smile on your face for me.

1061

01:
29:25,693 -- 01:29:27,730

Now, I'm on another planet, with dad.

1062

01:
29:29,197 -- 01:29:32,178

Now, you can finally stop worrying

about me and relax.

1063

01:
29:35,069 -- 01:29:37,379

I already planned your trip on a map,

1064

01:
29:38,239 -- 01:29:39,946

so I want you to pack your bags

1065

01:
29:40,875 -- 01:29:42,752

and go see mountains you've never seen

1066

01:
29:43,478 -- 01:29:45,151

and travel rivers you've never traveled.

1067

01:
29:47,014 -- 01:29:48,391

When you miss me,

1068

01:
29:49,150 -- 01:29:50,458

look up at the sky.

1069

01:
29:52,053 -- 01:29:56,001

Your alien and I will be up there,

looking down,

1070

01:
29:57,458 -- 01:29:58,994

watching you, always.

1071

01:
30:08,269 -- 01:30:13,184

"The hand that plucks

the strings lacks your warmth,

1072

01:
30:13,841 -- 01:30:18,051

and I can't play happiness on them anymore

1073

01:
30:18,279 -- 01:30:23,490

I can't stop retracing

the steps of your dance

1074

01:
30:23,918 -- 01:30:29,425

as my eyes blur...

1075

01:
30:30,324 -- 01:30:35,205

I don't fix the broken lights in this room

1076

01:
30:35,863 -- 01:30:40,209

because I'm not brave enough

to illuminate my loneliness

1077

01:
30:40,435 -- 01:30:45,851

The sudden silences are

when I think of your smile

1078

01:
30:46,073 -- 01:30:51,887

How long has it been since you've been gone?

1079

01:
30:54,415 -- 01:30:59,091

I cry like a child

1080

01:
30:59,320 -- 01:31:03,962

thinking you'll come back,

1081

01:
31:04,192 -- 01:31:06,866

just to fill the space in my mind

1082

01:
31:07,094 -- 01:31:10,166

that you left empty

1083

01:
31:10,431 -- 01:31:15,403

I can't leave the warmth of my memories

1084

01:
31:15,937 -- 01:31:21,148

All I can do is cry like a child,

1085

01:
31:21,409 -- 01:31:26,085

because you'll never come back

1086

01:
31:26,280 -- 01:31:28,886

In another time and place

1087

01:
31:29,116 -- 01:31:32,325

it might have worked,

1088

01:
31:32,520 -- 01:31:37,367

we could have frozen love at the start

1089

01:
31:49,403 -- 01:31:52,247

People who leave don't always

just hurt others, right?

1090

01:
31:53,241 -- 01:31:55,585

Like you, Gong Ning.

1091

01:
31:57,445 -- 01:32:00,915

After you left, you gave me the hope

to keep living.

1092

01:
32:01,949 -- 01:32:05,487

And now, that hope became reality.

1093

01:
32:06,387 -- 01:32:07,365

Didn't it, Lv Xia?

1094

01:
32:08,923 -- 01:32:10,266

Can I call you Lv Xia?

1095

01:
32:10,892 -- 01:32:11,302

My...

1096

01:
32:13,628 -- 01:32:15,107

Can I call you Lv Xia?

1097

01:
32:15,596 -- 01:32:16,939

My bad boy.

1098

01:
32:24,305 -- 01:32:25,875

Can I call you Lv Xia?

1099

01:
32:26,440 -- 01:32:27,578

You bad boy.

1100

01:
32:29,310 -- 01:32:32,985

The truth is, the first time I saw you,

1101

01:
32:34,081 -- 01:32:35,458

I knew you weren't Gong Ning.

1102

01:
32:37,184 -- 01:32:39,460

When my mom was making this plan,

1103

01:
32:39,987 -- 01:32:41,261

she underestimated my memory.

1104

01:
32:42,390 -- 01:32:44,563

It's not as bad as she thought.

1105

01:
32:47,194 -- 01:32:50,073

Now that you know I knew,

1106

01:
32:51,332 -- 01:32:54,506

you might be having doubts about my feelings

during this little game.

1107

01:
32:56,237 -- 01:32:59,116

Alright, go back to the warehouse.

1108

01:
33:00,041 -- 01:33:01,577

Let down the tapestry I made for you,

1109

01:
33:02,376 -- 01:33:03,582

and turn off the lights.

1110

01:
33:04,545 -- 01:33:06,183

The answer is there.

1111

01:
33:33,674 -- 01:33:35,347

Do you remember that fat music teacher

we used to have'?

1112

01:
33:35,610 -- 01:33:36,918

You mean the Latin fanatic?

1113

01:
33:37,244 -- 01:33:37,984

Yeah.

1114

01:
33:38,212 -- 01:33:39,054

Every time he put this song on

1115

01:
33:39,480 -- 01:33:40,686

he always got up and danced,

1116

01:
33:54,495 -- 01:33:56,065

Do you remember this flavor?

1117

01:
33:57,531 -- 01:34:01,035

I told you, it would always remind you

1118

01:
34:02,203 -- 01:34:04,547

that our love was real.

1119

01:
34:14,682 -- 01:34:17,253

Don't cry, you bad boy.

1120

01:
34:18,219 -- 01:34:21,132

You have to know I haven't gone very far.

1121

01:
34:22,423 -- 01:34:26,064

When you sing, I'll be the notes.

1122

01:
34:27,261 -- 01:34:31,038

When you play the guitar,

I'll be the strings.

1123

01:
34:32,166 -- 01:34:36,046

When you're frustrated,

I'll be a bottle of beer.

1124

01:
34:36,737 -- 01:34:41,652

When you're lonely, I'll be a record.

1125

01:
34:46,414 -- 01:34:47,256

I love you,

1126

01:
34:47,715 -- 01:34:50,161

Lv Xia, or Gong Ning.

1127

01:
34:51,719 -- 01:34:53,027

Whatever

1128

01:
35:34,695 -- 01:35:39,508

"The hand that plucks

the strings lacks your warmth,

1129

01:
35:40,234 -- 01:35:44,444

and I can't play happiness on them anymore

1130

01:
35:44,638 -- 01:35:50,054

I can't stop retracing the steps

of your dance

1131

01:
35:50,244 -- 01:35:55,250

as my eyes blur...

1132

01:
35:56,684 -- 01:36:01,633

When I look up on a street I know,

1133

01:
36:02,323 -- 01:36:06,601

all I see is a world without you

1134

01:
36:06,794 -- 01:36:12,142

The sudden silences are

when I think of your smile

1135

01:
36:12,366 -- 01:36:19,477

How long has it been since you've been gone?

1136

01:
36:20,841 -- 01:36:25,290

I cry like a child

1137

01:
36:25,746 -- 01:36:30,422

thinking you'll come back,

1138

01:
36:30,651 -- 01:36:33,188

just to fill the space in my mind.

1139

01:
36:33,420 -- 01:36:36,492

That you left empty

1140

01:
36:36,757 -- 01:36:41,228

I can't leave the warmth of my memories

1141

01:
36:44,265 -- 01:36:48,111

Wife, Let's son is singing.

1142

01:
36:50,237 -- 01:36:51,409

You just listen to

1143

01:
36:52,773 -- 01:36:55,344

In another time and place

1144

01:
36:55,576 -- 01:36:58,716

it might have worked,

1145

01:
36:58,913 -- 01:37:03,521

we could have frozen love at the start

1146

01:
37:05,619 -- 01:37:07,599

Remember me!"

1147

01:
37:28,709 -- 01:37:29,517

The education office reports

1148

01:
37:29,743 -- 01:37:31,814

that the weather channel has

just issued a typhoon warning...

1149

01:
37:32,279 -- 01:37:34,190

The child is named Gong Ning. What a pity.

1150

01:
37:34,481 -- 01:37:36,461

He was always getting into so much trouble.

1151

01:
37:37,251 -- 01:37:39,322

What surprised me was he was trying

to save someone.

1152

01:
37:39,620 -- 01:37:41,600

Yeah. I heard the police say

1153

01:
37:41,889 -- 01:37:42,924

the woman he was trying to save,

1154

01:
37:43,424 -- 01:37:44,698

and god only knows why,
