So you waited by the door the whole night?

Almost!

What're doing out here, creep?

Me? A creep?

I knocked the door so hard for hours,

I yelled like hell and

you couldn't hear me?

Are you toying with me?

I was in the bathroom

and didn't hear anything.

Why didn't you ring the doorbell?

I did. It didn't Work!

Since when? Did you break it?

I'm not talking to you. I'm going to bed.

Wait...

You went out without your

keys. Where did you go?

Oh I see...

You sleepwalked?

I went for a jogging. OK?

Take your keys with you

when you go out. Like me.

You're not a kid. It's tired

to teach you everything.

Lock you out. See what your keys can do?

Why are you scaring me again at midnight?

Who are you?

Why are you here?

I'm the new tenant.

I remember. You're that...

Slay!

Yes, I'm very gay...

absolutely!

Remember!

Don't bring any woman...

...man home!

How dare I bring anyone?

Good night

I can't hold in anymore!

Did you pass out?

I'm in a hurry to work!

When did you come in? What did you see?

Nothing spectacular!

You are so gross!

You peed in the sink?

Poor personal hygiene!

If you're not holding up

the bathroom all morning,

I wouldn't pee here! I'm in a rush! Missy!

Well, I can't use this kitchen anyway.

You'd better clean it with

the strongest cleanser today!

Or else, you'll have

to pee here from now on.

You eat out of the toilet bowl then.

Stinky man!

So gross!

These are my clothes...

These are mine...

The woman upstairs gave me!

How did you get them?

Don't burn it! These are my clothes!

Are you insane?

I'm burning everything that's his.

Those are yours. These

are mine. You're so wrong!

What's wrong with me?

Tell me, what did I do wrong?

I did nothing wrong!

Tell me, what did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?

Hui

Hui

You're back at last. Don't be mad at me.

I don't need getting married.

Everything stays the

same old, we're so happy.

Hui...

Are you hungry?

Don't leave me, I'd do whatever you say.

Really? You'd do whatever I say?

Good! Go back to your bedroom and sleep.

Should we get married tomorrow?

Yes, of course!

Set the alarm and get up at 6

Take a bath, wash your hair.

Clean yourself very well.

Then we'd get married.

Good. Go back to your room.

See you tomorrow.

See you.

Bye. See you tomorrow.

Bye .

Xiao-min used to be

gentle and intelligent.

It's sad to see her like this, so pitiful.

You'd be tolerate. Just bite

the bullet and it's over.

Tolerate? She pulls a

different prank every day.

Mr. Lam!

Is this the new car you rented?

Awesome. When can I borrow it for a ride?

I want to move.

Find me another flat asap.

No, no, no. Mr. Lam.

Listen.

Now, you move, then you're

breaking the contract unilaterally.

Those 3 months of rent and

deposit will be forfeited.

That's all you're telling me?

What else can I say?

Say it in French?

Chung

I'll pack my stuff and go.

Be it a hotel or a street.

I won't live there anymore.

You'd be fined for

street-sleeping in Paris!

My cell phone?

What're you doing?

You don't have to kill

yourself for a breakup.

L---

Don't move. Calm down.

You calm down first.

Leave me alone!

Calm down.

I'm getting my painting back!

The wind will blow it away.

Sorry.

Give it to me.

Look! This is the negative space here.

This is Hui.

Does it look like it?

I don't know anything about art

Hui is a very talented artist,

5 yrs ago, Hui and I got

recommended by our school...

to study in Paris University of Fine Ads

(Beijing University of Fine Ads)

Though we only had limited savings...

it felt great to study and live abroad...

with the love of our lives.

(Paris University of Fine Ads)

I studied painting, he studied sculpture.

The first year was the

happiest time of our life.

Hui prefers abstraction.

It's hard for him to earn

recognition against mainstream,

but I believed he'll be a

brilliant sculptor one day.

The cost of living in Paris was too high.

So, I took a year off to work full time...

before my final year.

If there could only be...

one artist between the two of us,

I want it to be Hui.

He promised, after graduation,

he'd apply for residence

permit as a freelance artist...

and put on a solo exhibition as required.

Then he'd marry me.

3 months ago,

Hui opened his solo exhibition.

It wasn't a huge one,

but his works were commended

by a famous gallery owner...

who invited him for a bigger show.

Hui was famous overnight!

This is the piece I love most,

dedicated to the most important person...

in my life.

This...

This goddess is you.

The negative space is me.

We'll bond together...

forever and ever.

We started planning our wedding...

after the exhibition as planned.

But,

Hui turned less and less interested,

like a different person altogether.

One day he took me back to university.

He said, even we're holding hands,

revisiting our romantic dating spots,

he'd felt nothing.

He had no feelings for me anymore...

and feelings are

indispensable to a artist.

He broke up with me...

because he needed new

romance and passion...

to fuel his creativity.

He left the place we

spent 5 years together...

without turning back.

I've tried my best...

and worked hard for our future.

And before I realized...

the man I loved was already gone.

I used to love his

artistic temperament most.

Finally, it's his artistic temperament...

that hurt me most.

Most artists are crazy.

Look at yourself. How artistic!

Though I felt heartbroken

after the breakup,

I haven't even shed a tear.

It's important to learn

to enjoy hardship in life.

In the most painful time,

give yourself a vacation.

Take a break first.

Let me enjoy the pain

for a while longer then.

No. No. No.

I thought you don't want these.

I keep it for you.

Thank you.

God bless you.

Thank you.

You know how to fix a doorbell?

Really?

And changing a lock too?

And this too?

You're horrible!

Not as horrifying as you.

Lend me money.

No.

You don't have it?

Yes I do. But I won't lend you any.

I'll take it myself...

No means no!

You'd just spend it on

cigarettes, alcohol and pizzas.

You dump the pizzas after

a few bites. How wasteful!

I bought you drinks...

and will make all your meals.

But money? No way!

Eat this first. Will let

you know when dinner's ready.

I'm not eating anything

you make. Save the trouble!

Hello?

I'm coming back. Tell

her don't leave there.

Just keep her waiting for me.

(Breakfast 5 Euros)

Relationships must end if

they don't mean to last.

People you can't hold on to

must be forgotten one day.

There's no pain that lasts forever.

Time will heal even the deepest pain.

That badass chick is here again...

Nicole?

You're the new guy Lam?

Stamp here.

I'm in a rush.

Boss, I told her not to smoke here,

but she won't listen.

It's OK.

Come. Let's talk inside.

You couldn't find a job last

year or didn't care to work?

You couldn't even make

minimum wage for tax paying.

Take a seat.

I won't chitchat with you.
