It's not working.

I understand... I really do.

We can't force it.

Let's end it right here,

OK?

The day I ran into you,

I told myself...

Press 1 to confirm; press 2 to cancel.

I thought you're spending a few days with Brenda.

I'm sorry.

If you can't let go, go back to him.

Don't worry about me.

I've been lying to you.

I'm sorry.

But... do you want to be with me?

Then let's forget the past

and start our own life together.

OK?

I'm so thrilled tonight. Thanks for coming.

Honey!

Baby!

Come meet all my friends.

Hi...

Hi, I'm Ben,

Brenda's fianc.

Which one of you is Cherie?

Hi!

Hi!

Be careful!

Thanks.

How are you?

I must thank you for not showing up that day,

or Baby and I wouldn't have met.

You're our Cupid.

We have this perfect ending...

all thanks to you.

If we have a son,

you have to be his godmother.

What do you say?

Of course.

My Baby's road to true love has been bumpy.

Her boyfriend vanished all of a sudden,

but it's OK now. I'll be guarding her forever.

She'll always feel my body temperature.

When you move in together,

you won't need a washer and dryer.

Why?

You won't need any clothes.

Don't say that!

Actually... she's right.

Let's have a toast!

Yes, a toast...

Congratulations...

"Your presence is etched on my mind"

"in my dreams, in my heart, even my songs"

"Jimmy:
Why didn't you pick up?"

"Cherie:
Can't. Am at a karaoke"

"Jimmy:
Where?"

You look lonely, sir.

Where are the girls?

Shall I call them?

Teachers, nurses or students?

I forgot! You're into air hostesses.

Sorry.

I'm sorry about last time.

Since we're such good friends, how about

I buy you a 6-pack of beer

and we're done?

I'm serious.

Don't you think we're repeating ourselves?

In what sense?

From Hong Kong to Beijing,

we're doing the same thing.

SMS, hook-ups, sex, lies to our other halves

karaokes...

It's OK to repeat,

but it's not working!

Since we met again, haven't you felt the problem?

We can't be as happy as before.

- Don't you get it?

- I do.

But it's all in your head.

You're still hung up about it.

It's all in your head.

You're always comparing.

For you, the past is always better.

Can you stop comparing?

Can you trust me, just this once?

Hello?

Baby, what time will you be done?

I'm in a meeting. I'll call you later.

What would you like to drink, sir?

Give him a 6-pack. He'll leave after that.

Sure, one moment please.

Hey...

Next time...

you want to be a two-timer,

turn down the phone.

"I never say I'm in love with whom"

"I never think about right or wrong"

"it's tiring to face myself"

"if it's not a crime to love,"

"why am I crying?"

"I go to sleep with loneliness each night"

"Don't ask me who I am. Just love me"

This is fun. I saw it on microblog.

It's already out.

You can't turn it over.

Says who? Give it here...

Just lock it.

You're so stupid.

Yesindeed.

What is it? I was kidding.

I still don't know...

how to lock the screen.

Let's eat out.

I did the same thing 2 years ago.

I sent I miss you

upside down to her.

If you can't forget her,

why are you with me?

I thought I was over her,

but when I saw her that day...

all the memories came back.

Sorry!

I don't want to hear that.

Don't say sorry to me.

I know I'm not good.

Tell me how I can change.

No. It's my problem.

You're very good already.

You dump me because I'm good?

What are you saying?

I've loved the spaghetti

from 7/11 since I was a kid.

People sometimes ask me why I like it.

It's too salty and doesn't have enough meat.

But I just like it.

I love her because...

I think she's perfect.

You won't even bother to lie to me any more?

I don't want to hold your hand and think of her.

We've been together for a year.

You can't even spare me a few seconds?

I asked you not to leave after my crash.

But I knew then

you had left since that time at the noodle shop.

Am I right?

I don't want to break up with someone

and leave things hanging every time.

It hurts too much.

You think I'll let you off that easily?

You think you can just wash your hands

and walk out?

Jimm...

I'm keeping a part of you

or you can't walk out this door.

Look at you. Did I scare you?

You think I'll kill you with this?

OK, I've kept

a part of you now.

She can have the rest.

You can go now.

I'm the manager here.

Hello.

Are you Linda Wong?

I really like your songs.

When you broke up with Kevin Cheng,

I cried my eyes out.

I always sing...

"Don't Ask Me Who I Am" at the karaoke.

Thank you.

It's really good.

You're looking for an eye shadow?

This color is too dark. It's not for you.

Try this one.

You can use it as a highlight,

or wear another color over it

to bring out the effect.

Looks good.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Mind if I ask you a question?

Go ahead.

When you quit the industry so suddenly,

did you have any regrets?

A woman...

must know when she needs to settle down.

When that moment comes,

it's OK to live a normal life.

I pay alimony each month

like I'm paying a penalty. $25,000...

Imagine paying 60 parking tickets a month!

Whatever happens,

we're brothers! Here's $5,000.

I must make it clear, I haven't worked in a while.

You expect me to pay for this alone, a**hole?

You know my situation...

I'm not asking for money.

I only want your help.

Hi

What are you doing here, a**hole?

Is Cherie around?

Leave her alone.

I want to take her to the movies.

She's not here.

Where is she?

She's transferred to Shanghai for 6 months.

When?

Today.

Why didn't she tell me?

Who are you?

She owes you nothing.

What time is her flight?

Thanks.

What kind of a man are you?

You're not getting her back?

She's gone.

Her train leaves at 9, it's only 8:30.

You can still make it to the South Station.

You drag your feet...

on everything!

She's my best friend.

I don't want to see her like this.

I know you're an a**hole,

but I know what she wants.

Get going, a**hole!

Eunuch? I'm heading to the South Station.

Send that clip to my email.

Yes, hurry!

Send that clip to my email, hurry!

Hurry!

"Jimmy calling."

Can you drive faster?

- Sure.

- Thanks.

Can you go away just like that?

It's OK, I haven't taken time off in 4 years.

Even my boss finds it strange.

You don't want to leave Beijing?

No, anywhere is just the same.

Hello? Did you send it?

Good! I have to go, bye!

Want some coffee?

OK.

Latte?

Thanks.

"Jimmy:
Even if you won't take my calls,"

"check your email."

Remember when we came home

from the Great Wall commune,

you said...

you two couldn't be together any more.

That's really what I thought.

I really thought we couldn't.

The day we met,

you stuck your hand in the toilet for me.

And him?

He likes to put dry ice in the toilet

and watch the smoke.

That day you told me

you loved me because I was lovable and cute.

But I can tell you now.

I got those off the wall ideas

from him.

Even I didn't know

when he started to have such an influence on me.
