"It is fate... - ..." " Which makes me, an ordinary man encounter three extraordinary women" "Their faith, righteousness and beauty shine brightly like the sun, the moon and stars in the sky forever and ever" "Looking at the stars make me think of A-Lan" "She is like an orchid in the valley or sometimes a Lonely twinkling star" "However, in the moonlight the star becomes dim and dismal" "The moon reminds me of my cousin Qiuming" "She is so solemn and bright but when the morning comes we are bathed in bright and resplendent sunlight" "Nothing could be more appropriate to symbolize Yanan with the sun" "She's brave and full of energy of life" "Where are they now?" "In the past, present and future nothing stops changing except true love, which resides deeply in heart for thousands, thousands of years forever and ever just like the stars, the moon and the sun" "What are you doing here?" "Watching the stars" "Watching stars or missing someone?" "Missing whom?" "You know better." "Sister A-Lan" "Won't you miss her this time you are away?" "Why not marry her and make her my sister in law" "You... " "Father" "Stop!" "Don't run around" "Behave yourself" "Where is my brother?" "He went back" "He went back... - ...- to pack for tomorrow's trip" "Grandma, I'm here" "The date cake is for your trip" "You'd take good care of yourself when living alone" "I got it" "Time to go to bed." "You have to get up early" "A-Lan, what's wrong?" "You are ignoring me because I'm late?" "Are you crying?" "Are you sick again?" "Why don't go to see a doctor as I told you to?" "My uncle and auntie just don't like... - ...- having me for all these years" "They would curse me... - ...- if I make them spend money on a doctor" "For seeing a doctor?" "You wash their clothes and cook for them" "Isn't that enough?" "Forget about it." "I'm not sick, really" "Then why are you weeping?" "I'm not" "You can't fool me." "Did you auntie beat you again" "No" "Did your uncle bully you?" "No, not him either" "What on earth are you weeping for?" "Nothing." "Don't make a blind guess" "Is it because I am leaving for school tomorrow?" "Who said so?" "I'll be back during the winter vacation" "It's only three months" "We are lucky comparing to the Cowherd and the Girl Weaver" "They meet only once a year" "Do you know which one is Vega?" "Is it that one?" "Whenever you see Vega you should think of me" "I will watch it every night" "Remember... - ..." " I'll be back when plum trees are in blossom" "Grandma" "I've been waiting for so long" "Look at you, you are so skinny" "Go to kowtow before Buddha... - ...- for your safe return" "A-Lan, A-Lan" "Why are you so late?" "I couldn't sneak out" "My Dad was chatting with my Mum" "Grandma kept asking all sorts of questions" "I had to creep from the window" "How long have you been waiting?" "I came before it is dark" "You know how much I miss you" "I don't know" "When I cannot see you one semester is like several years" "Your braid grows much longer" "Would you like me to cut it off and give it to you" "It looks better on you" "Why not promise me one thing?" "What is it?" "Meet me every night to watch the stars" "Promise" "Fine" "Why are you so quiet tonight?" "Do you realize how long it's been... - ...- since we meet and watch the stars each day?" "Of course." "The winter vacation is almost over" "I have to leave home again" "A-Lan, why don't you go to school with me?" "Don't be so childish" "Go." "Go quickly" "Why?" "Don't ask" "It is Wang San" "No good if he sees us" "What are you afraid of?" "They always think in bad terms" "I'm not afraid." "How about you?" "Me?" "I'm afraid of seeing my uncle and aunt's expression" "Besides... " "Besides what?" "My uncle made an arranged marriage for me" "What?" "You" "My uncle also accepted their betrothal gift" "It is brother Li living in the village behind" "The platoon leader in the military?" "How about yourself?" "Jianbai" "What?" "How can you ask me something like this?" "You know where my heart belongs" "If it is not your will, why don't you oppose it" "I am not scared." "I'll do it if you cannot" "Really?" "Jianbai" "Are you scared?" "With you, I am feared of nothing" "If a single girl stays with a man... - ...- at mid-light in the wildness what will people say?" "The Li's family would never accept a daughter in law ...- who has illicit relations before marriage?" "The engagement must be withdrawn" "Take it easy." "Come in and let's talk it over" "You must return the betrothal gifts to us" "No problem" "What evidence do you have... - ...- if you say A-Lan is secretly seeing someone?" "What do you get to prove it?" "Someone saw them" "Who?" "Me, Wang San" "I saw her with the eldest son of the Xu's family" "I knew it was you" "I caught you cheating for money" "Now you are spreading rumors to damage my reputation ...- because you hate me" "Rumor?" "Dare you call your niece out to verify it?" "Why not?" "Say something." "You fool" "I'm doing all these for you" "Are you going to just take it?" "Call her out" "Go to get A-Lan." "Go" "I'll go" "A-Lan." "You shameless girl" "Wang San said... - ...- you were dating the son of the Xu's family" "Is it true?" "Now the Li's family are here to break off the engagement and Wang San is asking you to verify it" "No matter what just don't admit anything." "Got it?" "A-Lan, come here" "Wang San said you were seeing someone" "I'll tear his mouth off... - ...- if there is no such thing" "If it is true... - ...- the Zhu's family will tolerate nothing... - ...- that brings shame to the family" "You will not be our niece any more" "I would rather you be dead" "A-Lan, tell us the truth" "The other night were you seeing Xu in the garden?" "Yes" "What?" "What did you say?" "You are so shameless" "Stop it." "Let go of her" "I met Xu Jianbai every night but we did nothing wrong" "Things are very clear now" "Everything is going to work out" "Let's go now" "Xu Jianbai seduces our girl" "I will make him pay for it" "I've never expected anything like this" "You are so useless" "Let me talk to him" "Were you seeing A-Lan at midnight?" "She is always busy... - ...- washing clothes, cooking, cleaning... - ...- and sewing all day" "We only have time... - ...- to meet and chat at midnight" "Was it you asking her out?" "Yes" "How dare you?" "Zhu Lan is already engaged" "The man, Li, is in the military" "Don't you know anything about it?" "A-Lan did not approve it" "So it doesn't count" "What are you talking about?" "You are insane" "I don't think we did anything wrong" "What?" "Let me teach him a lesson" "It is none of your business" "Enough." "He knew he was wrong" "Go away" "Stop it" "If you want to hit him you'd better hit me first" "Beat me to death before him" "Mother, I am disciplining him for his own good" "I cannot bear what you just said" "If you cannot bear my words how can he bear your whip?" "Think it over" "Did I ever do anything like this to you?" "You are right" "You are also useless" "Why didn't you stop him?" "Go away" "Jianbai" "Grandma" "Xiaomei, Xiaomei" "Want something to eat?" "No" "Still not in bed yet?" "I can deliver a message for you" "Anything to tell him?" "Just this" "What is it?" "I will go right away" "Be careful" "Don't worry about it" "Who's there?" "It's me" "How is A-Lan" "She is locked inside and couldn't come out" "Xiaomei asked me to bring this to you" "Any words from her?" "No" "Xiaomei said A-Lan would write you... - ...- if anything happens" "You have to catch the train tomorrow morning" "Better go to bed now" "Have you packed everything?" "Mum." "Why don't you go to sleep?" "I have something to talk to you" "What is it?" "The marriage I mentioned before" "With your cousin, Qiuming" "Mum, not this again" "Your auntie wrote me" "She asked you to visit their place... - ...- and see Qiuming this semester" "We haven't seen each other for so many years" "How can I?" "Don't compel him" "Grandma, you are not feeling well" "Why did you get up again?" "I come to see you." "Take this" "Dates cake" "He is already startled because of the affair with A-Lan" "Don't talk about Qiuming with him" "It's nothing serious" "His auntie wrote and said... - ...- that Qiuming is accepted by the same school and is now his schoolmate" "That's why" "It's so cold here." "Come to my room" "Your father provoked all my illness" "Take this with you" "Grandma, I wouldn't need it" "We aren't in peaceful times" "Better bring extra money with you" "This is saved for buying myself a coffin" "Now I keep half, the other half is for you" "I really don't need it" "Take it." "I don't know... - if I could live to see you again this time you leave home" "Please don't say anything like that, Grandma" "For aged people, you never know" "You will be all right" "The ball is on top of the tree" "Hurry up." "What can we do?" "It's so high up there" "Let me get it" "Watch out" "Qiuming, be careful" "Qiuming" "Yang Ziyun, come here" "Don't be afraid." "Step on me and get down" "Cousin?" "I'm coming down" "You don't remember me?" "I... - oh yes, yes" "Cousin?" "Is he your cousin?" "Yes." "We were together when we were kids but haven't seen each other for many years" "Cousin" "Thank you" "Why thank me?" "I should thank you" "My mum told me to look for you at school" "I didn't expect to meet you here" "Mum wants to invite you to our home" "OK." "See you" "See you" "Who is he?" "He is Xu Jianbai from grade three a classmate of Yang Ziyun" "No wonder you know him" "Don't make fun of me" "Where is the ball?" "I'll go and get it" "Wait" "They are acting like cousins gathering... - ...- at the back garden" "No, I'm not" "What are you arguing about?" "Nothing" "Even the old "Nun" wants a man now let alone Qiuming" "What happened to the old "Nun"?" "Someone saw her with Mr. Lin in the garden" "Yang Ziyun" "What's the matter?" "I need your advice" "Advice?" "I have a lot" "If your family choose a girl for you but you don't like it done this way" "Now the girl invites you for dinner at her home" "Will you go?" "Sure, let me tell you what to do" "Tell them you are hungry the moment you arrive" "Eat like a pig and simply wipe your mouth afterwards" "Ask her parents to lend you money before you leave" "If they still want you to be their son-in-law come to me" "It's a good idea" "What is the girl like anyway?" "Very good, pretty good" "A girl from a wealthy family... - ...- whom did indulgent parents bring up" "All she knows is singing and dancing" "I think she and I make a good match" "Let me go for you" "It would be nice if you could go for me" "I have had this terrible headache in these two days" "I'm afraid I will fall sick tomorrow" "Tomorrow?" "I've no time" "Dating Little Rain?" "You came already" "Why didn't Wang Ma tell me?" "I told her not to disturb you" "You play so well" "Please take a seat" "This is the young master of the Xu's family" "Tea please" "Yes" "Let's go" "He is my cousin." "Say "cousin"." "Don't" "It is OK." "Go on playing." "I like to hear more" "I played piano because I was bored" "Now you are here, we can chat" "Has the young master arrived?" "Yes" "Mom, Dad, why are you back so late?" "Our guest has been here for a while" "Jianbai is not a guest" "He's a member of our family" "Uncle, Auntie" "You have grown up" "How long haven't we seen you?" "Many years" "Have a seat." "Make yourself at home" "God, anything burned?" "Oh, my goodness." "It must be the roast beef" "How could the cook so careless?" "It's our daughter who wouldn't allow the cook" "Our Miss wants to cook for the young Master herself" "Wang Ma" "No more, no more" "It's all Mum's fault" "You came back so late" "I have to accompany my cousin that's why I couldn't go to the kitchen and save the roast beef" "Jianbai, help yourself" "It tastes worse than poison" "It's the masterpiece of our daughter" "It's really bad." "All burned" "No, it tastes good, really." "I like it" "Jianbai, you are so brave" "It's special, really special" "What's the matter?" "I have this terrible stomachache" "You are probably having a fever" "Let's go to see the school doctor" "No, I can't move" "I'll try to get the doctor here" "What happened to me?" "You had high fever" "The school doctor said it is typhoid... - ...- and you are not allowed to stay at school" "My father examined you" "He said you need special care" "That's why you are here" "Is this your room?" "Yes, it is more comfortable here" "How about yourself?" "I moved into my Mum's room" "Don't talk too much." "Take a good sleep" "Feeling better?" "Why did you eat so much roast beef?" "Be careful next time" "It isn't because of the beef" "I had headache that morning" "I'll be all right after some rest" "How's it?" "He's sleeping well" "Not Jianbai." "I am asking about our daughter" "She?" "Strange" "So many classmates are after her... - ...- but she didn't like any of them" "To my surprise she is only interested in Jianbai" "You don't understand." "Girls are always like this" "Again, this secret meeting in the back garden" "We caught you this time" "Why didn't you give us a shout before you came in" "The sound of magnificent singing filled our ears from a distance" "We were afraid of disturbing your rendezvous" "Qiuming, why don't you let everyone in?" "What's wrong with you?" "Why did you disappear completely when Xu Jianbai was ill" "You don't want us any more once you have your cousin" "Yang Ziyun bring Xu Jianbai back to school immediately and see what she is going to do?" "Stop joking" "You won't let him go?" "Seriously, Jianbai" "The old "Nun" told me... - you shouldn't miss too many classes before graduation" "When are you coming back to school?" "Me?" "After couple of more days of rest" "Uncle, auntie" "Xu Jianbai recovered so quickly" "Of course, it is because of a good doctor" "Of course, and a good nurse as well" "No, you are all wrong" "It is because you have such a good patient" "Have you forgotten all about me?" "No" "You have your cousin now" "No." "No" "You are in love with her" "No, No" "You are lying" "No" "You are lying" "No" "No." "Don't." "A-Lan" "Is he sleeping?" "Yes." "Mum?" "What's the matter?" "What is it?" "Who is A-Lan?" "A-Lan?" "He talked in his dream, and cry out A-Lan" "Oh" "Who is she?" "A girl in the countryside" "Girls just cannot be cheap" "Never learn from your sister A-Lan" "She is completely carried away by man" "It would be fine if Xu would like to marry her" "The problem is he never took her seriously" "Now the Xu's family said... - ..." " Xu Jianbai is engaged with his cousin a girl who is pretty and intelligent" "Mum, could you stop please?" "It is no good if A-Lan hears it" "I am afraid of nobody." "Not even her" "This is exactly what I want her to know" "We were dying to be engaged with the Li's family" "Look at now they are asking for the betrothal gift back" "Your father has no money to return" "How could A-Lan be such a cheap, cursed wretch ...- who can never tell good from bad" "Jianbai, it's been months since you left" "I'm fine" "However, there's one I want to tell you" "I met someone and plan to be engaged with him" "Jianbai, please forget all about me" "We shouldn't see each other any more" "I saw letter for you at school and bring it back to you" "Hope you can see it sooner" "A love letter has more power than ten bottles of medicine" "Qiuming" "You are reading a love letter" "I shouldn't be here" "Qiuming" "What?" "I want to tell you something" "Tell me then" "I knew a girl before" "A-Lan?" "How do you know?" "Mum told me" "Your mum told her about A-Lan" "It's good that you knew" "A-Lan suffered so much because of me" "I owe her a lot" "After being away from home" "I never heard from her again" "Now, the letter arrived" "She wrote to let me forget her... - ...- because she has a new lover" "We knew each other since we were kids" "I thought I loved her and she loved me" "Now I know it wasn't true" "It seems normal to me" "Some people give their heart completely to love ...- while others are never dependable" "Who can tell?" "You have doubts in my love to you, right?" "You should know how happy I am... - ...- when I am with you" "Besides, you saved my life" "Speak no more please" "All right." "Please let go of the past" "That's enough" "Auntie, you wanted me?" "Yes" "Where is Qiuming?" "She wouldn't see you today" "Why?" "You'll understand soon" "You were seriously ill this semester" "How are you doing now?" "Can you catch up at school?" "I'm preparing for the final exam" "It should be OK" "What are you planning to do after graduation?" "Go to the north for tertiary studies" "Your parents are concerned with one thing though" "I know." "They are worried I might fail" "What a bookworm" "They are worried about you and Qiuming" "Qiuming and me?" "I heard from your Mother yesterday" "She was discussing with me... - ...- about you two's marriage after graduation" "Your grandma is in poor health" "She wants to see her granddaughter-in-law... - ...- great grandson sooner" "Has Qiuming known about it?" "I told her already" "What did she say?" "Girls are too shy to speak out" "We must consult her no matter what" "She is hiding in her room and wouldn't see anyone especially you" "I'll call her" "Qiuming, Qiuming" "What?" "Come down" "I will leave it to you" "Mum, don't go" "Don't be shy." "He is your cousin" "Qiuming" "I just want to ask you, are you willing to" "How about yourself?" "Of course I am." "You?" "Qiuming" "Last night, she's already decided on... - ...- what kind of wedding dress to wear" "Mum" "Qiuming, you are decided then" "That's good" "Now he can concentrate on his exams" "We'll hold the wedding after Jianbai's graduation" "Xu Jianbai, you got a telegram" "Let's go back" "Who's there?" "A-Lan, what are you doing here?" "I am just passing by, and want to see you" "We'd better not meet" "I don't want to break your lucky marriage" "Please don't hate me" "Brother, why are doing this?" "You have no idea" "I know everything" "You shouldn't treat her this way" "Brother, what she told you is not true" "She isn't engaged with anyone" "What?" "Let me tell you" "Who's it?" "It's me, Jianbai" "Why are you here?" "I want to see you." "Come out, A-Lan" "Leave now" "I won't leave if you don't meet me" "I can't talk to you" "Why?" "Not here" "Meet me at the old place" "No" "I will creep in if you don't come" "OK." "You go first." "I'm coming" "I'll be waiting for you" "These are Jianbai books and clothes" "He left in a hurry" "Qiuming packed everything and brought them back" "How nice of you Qiuming" "Jianbai is coming back" "I've asked Jianzhong to go and get him" "Why didn't he tell us where he was going" "Now we have no idea" "A-Lan, why did you deceive me in your letter?" "I did it for you" "For me?" "For you and your cousin" "You mean Qiuming?" "Yes, for you two." "I'm not suitable for you" "She is nice and was born in a wealthy family" "I have nothing to compare with her" "Don't say that" "You don't know... - ...- how miserable I felt reading the letter" "What should I say?" "A-Lan, it's my fault" "I hurt you" "I should take the responsibility" "Come with me" "We'll go somewhere else" "We will leave secretly without anyone knowing" "Do you have someone else?" "No" "Then come and go with me" "We'll take the train that leaves at nine-thirty" "What?" "He is still seeing the girl from the Zhu's family" "It is ridiculous he is flirting with her... - ...- while still in mourning of his grandmother" "Why didn't you call him back... - ...- when you saw them?" "I lost them later on" "I'll scold him myself" "I will break his legs... - ...- unless he never returns" "Leave this to tomorrow." "You go inside first" "You may not know me" "I am Qiuming, Jianbai's cousin" "Are you leaving?" "No" "I know all about it" "That's why I came to see you" "I am surprised that on one hand he agreed to marry me" "But on the other he was planning to elope with you" "You shouldn't blame him" "You told him to do this, didn't you?" "Didn't you?" "His father flared up... - ...- knowing you are still together" "If he knows your plan he will never forgive Jianbai" "His grandma just passed away and he is still in mourning" "If he goes like this all his relatives and friends will look down upon him" "Don't you understand?" "I know" "Then why are you eloping with him?" "This is not love." "You are destroying him" "I know it is wrong" "But I'm dying" "I couldn't care less" "What are you talking about?" "I am sick" "I only have one or two more years to live" "Does Jianbai know?" "No." "Don't tell him" "You have parents" "You don't understand... - ...- the helpless feeling of being an orphan" "When Jianbai asked me to go with him" "I was thinking, why not?" "After so many years of suffering why not enjoy life before I die?" "I didn't know you are sick" "Whatever you want me to do, just tell me" "I was wrong" "You did nothing wrong." "You should go with him" "Pack your luggage." "Don't miss the train" "I misunderstood you" "No, it wasn't your fault" "Please stay." "I have something to say to you" "A-Lan, A-Lan" "Cousin" "Qiuming, why are you here?" "My Mum and I got off train and went to your home" "We waited for so long but you didn't come back" "There is nothing" "She isn't coming" "How do you know?" "Your family know about it" "What?" "I went to see her" "You ruined us" "Are you blaming me?" "You kept on fooling, hurting and cheating me" "I know I disappointed you" "I'm not blaming you." "I am afraid... " "A-Lan understands everything" "She is so pathetic." "I don't blame her" "But how could you have no emotions to me?" "I have emotions to you" "however, I also have responsibility to A-Lan" "I wanted to just go... - ...- and leave you two together but A-Lan stopped me and talked a lot to me" "I tried to persuade her to do as you planned but she refused" "Why?" "She told me about this place" "Did she ask you to come here?" "She asked me to tell you... - ...- to forget about her" "Now I'm going back" "Now, the most critical moment has come" "Our government is planning to lead a nationwide protest ...- against the Japanese invasion" "I believe... - the students are very enthusiastic on saving our country" "However, a lot of us still have worries" "I just discussed with the girls... - ...- about our work" "What shall we do in case a war breaks out?" "Some of us cannot give up on school some cannot leave their home behind and some cannot give up a love relationship" "Sounds funny?" "You got to know what kind of moment it is" "Our nation is facing a critical juncture" "Personnel intimacy is so insignificant at this moment" "But there are still people... - ...- who chose to hide in the ivory tower moaning and groaning for no cause and stay away from gunfire of the war" "Yanan, here you are" "I went through two carriages looking for you" "Come and sit together" "Teacher Gu" "You are also here?" "Why did you leave school in a hurry?" "I rushed back home because my grandma passed away" "And you?" "I resigned" "I want to go to the north to see if I can teach there" "I want to go to university" "Great." "Do you know each other?" "He is my student, Xu Jianbai he is my young schoolmate, Su Yanan" "Look, she is taller than me now" "Teacher Gu." "Please sit here" "No thanks." "I'll be back in a few minutes" "All my stuff is back over there" "Yanan" "Sorry for taking your seat" "It doesn't matter." "I'm looking for a book" "This one?" "I know it is yours" "How do you know?" "What you just said is all in there" "Really?" "Our nation is facing a critical juncture" "Personnel intimacy is so insignificant" "However" "Exactly the same." "Strange?" "I wrote this article" "Oh, sorry" "Where are you going?" "Go to university in the North" "Or I can also say, run away from home" "Run away?" "Why?" "No freedom in marriage?" "Failed in love?" "I've been there" "All these are actually normal" "Teacher Gu and Teacher Lin come to sit here please" "Xu Jianbai" "An old schoolmate of yours came to register just now" "He discussed with our dormitory officer... - ...- about moving in to be with you" "Who is it?" "How would I know?" "It's your schoolmate" "I'm moving away" "Jianbai, Yang Ziyun is here" "Why didn't you come to welcome me?" "It was you" "I stayed with Jianbai in the same room in high school" "I want to stay with him in university too" "Sorry for the hustle" "No worries" "Let me help you" "Sorry again" "Are you hiding here writing love letters?" "Read this yourself." "You call this a love letter?" "Jianbai, how is everything going" "How is your cousin" "We don't write to each other" "Did you break up?" "I don't know what it is called" "Did you go back to the country girl?" "No." "Where is your Little Rain?" "She is also here" "Where?" "In her dormitory" "Great." "The old schoolmates are together again" "It would be so wonderful if Qiuming were here" "Xu Jianbai" "Please go to the Students Autonomous Association" "We are preparing to set up the Students Rescue Association" "Our Chief Secretary wants to talk to you" "The Chief Secretary wants me?" "She respects you a lot... - ...- after reading your articles posted on the wall" "I'll be right there" "What a surprise you can write... - ...- and someone respects you for that" "Go now" "I'll clean up everything... - ...- and talk to you when you return" "Is the Chief Secretary here?" "Wait a moment" "Are you a freshman?" "Will you join the Students Rescue Association" "I'm planning to" "Hurry up" "Ms. Su, do you remember me?" "You are?" "Oh" "You are so busy" "Yes, lately vey" "We have tons of work to do after class" "Ms. Su, may I ask you something?" "What is it?" "Who is the Chief Secretary here?" "What for?" "She asked me to come here" "Are you Xu Jianbai?" "Yes, we met before on the train" "Let's go inside and talk" "I am busy." "I... " "I am the Chief Secretary" "It's you" "Yes." "I read your articles... - ...- and appreciate your style very much" "I hope you can join us... - ...- to work on documents" "Su Yanan, our request is approved" "We'll have military training twice a week" "They also assigned a military instructor for us" "Look" "That's great." "Let's talk about it outside" "Come here." "Look at this." "It is so Great" "I've here for so long but nobody cared" "That's not the right attitude for a student association" "You are right." "Every one here is so busy" "That's why I want you here" "Like I said, I hope that you... " "Work on documents" "You accepted?" "Great" "On behalf of the Students' Autonomous Association ...- and the Students' Rescue Association, welcome" "Are you free after classes every day?" "Yes, I am" "Can you come here to do some work?" "Of course I can" "Good." "Let me show you around first" "This is our plan" "Too much work for you, isn't it?" "I'm fine" "I can see our young master is so used to a comfortable life" "No" "It's very late now... - ...- and you have a class tomorrow morning" "Why don't you go back and rest" "I can manage" "You always attend class at day time... - ...- and work through the night" "Why cannot I?" "All this writing is nothing" "I can still run ten more miles... - ...- after finish writing" "Sure?" "Of course." "Too bad it's so late now" "Otherwise you can test it on me" "Are you afraid it is too late?" "Me?" "No" "Why don't we go hiking?" "You mean now?" "We'll go to see the sunrise at the peak" "All right." "Let's go" "The sunlight is so beautiful in the morning" "Are your tired?" "No." "I am in high spirit at daybreak" "Right" "Let's go" "How about sitting here for a little longer?" "What?" "Are you tired?" "No" "In that case, let's go to paddle a boat" "Good" "Go on" "Soon after my mother passed away" "I was forced to marry someone I didn't even know" "I run away from home... - ...- and went to school in the mainland" "I can't imagine how hard life is... - ...- for a girl like you" "As long as the sun and the earth exist we can always survive" "You are amazing" "We all are" "Will you go back home during the holidays?" "I have so much to do in the holidays" "How would I be able to go?" "How about you?" "Me, of course not" "Great" "The more students stay at school... - ...- the better" "A-Lan, my father wrote us again... - ...- urging my Mum and I to return home" "You cannot always stay here and be with me" "I'm thinking of taking you back home" "You asked for leave from school to accompany me" "I already feel sorry for that" "How could I go to stay at your home?" "My mother likes you so much so will my father" "After Jianbai left you have nobody to talk with" "You are not in good health" "Even if you are you will be bored and become ill" "Remember, my father is a doctor" "He can take care of you" "No." "I can't be cured anyway" "No need to bother your father" "Why are you always so pessimistic?" "Is it because of Jianbai?" "Do you want to be Lonely and helpless for the rest of your life" "I'm so useless" "I've been thinking about this for you" "You can become a nurse" "You'll have no problem getting into the school for nurses with your junior high-school certificate" "Isn't it better... - looking after patients instead of your uncle and auntie" "A-Lan, I need you as well" "You are the only one who can understand me" "Not even my Mum" "After Jianbai left you and I were left alone in this world" "You still have your schoolmates, friends and... " "No." "I can speak out only when I'm with you" "In fact, I need you more than you need me" "Promise me, A-Lan, promise" "Qiuming." "Why are you not practicing piano?" "I am busy" "What are you doing?" "I am reading a letter" "Do you know whom it's from" "From whom?" "Little Rain, my classmate" "Did she mention Jianbai?" "I'll read to you." "Don't be so nervous" "I am not" "I'm completely changed after leaving home" "Why would I miss him?" "Jianbai is busier this semester" "He was elected to be secretary of the SAA" "He changed into another person... - ...- just like you" "It's said here Jianbai is the most active student in his school" "Does he know anything about us?" "So what?" "Nothing" "Maybe he never thinks about us" "Little Rain also mentioned that... - ...- at school... - ...- a teacher nicknamed old "Nun"...- ...- is in love now" "On the contrary" "Jianbai who used to be a great lover now turns into a monk" "La-la-la-la" "I thought it was Yang Ziyun and Little Rain" "Do they know you worked here overnight?" "They've nothing else to do during this vacation" "They asked me to go to the Western Mountain with them" "Yanan, come with us" "I'm occupied." "Enjoy" "Yanan." "I have something to tell you" "What?" "I... " "Come on" "I feel... if you are not going to" "the Western Mountain" "I don't want to go either" "Fight against the Japanese" "The War at Lugou Bridge broke" "Yanan." "Jianbai." "We are fighting against Japanese" "Where is Yang?" "Where is Yang?" "Yang, Yang" "I am here" "Attention, everyone" "We should be organized and take care of everyone" "Those who want to join, please come with me" "Little Rain, are you all right?" "Are you OK?" "Is everyone here?" "Oh, look" "Master Gu, Master Gu" "We are going to stay in the bigger room at the back" "Have the people sent to contact the army returned?" "Are you planning to go to the battlefront?" "We should all contribute to our country" "It is too dangerous." "You shouldn't go" "You'd better retreat to the rear" "Let's stay here first and discuss later" "Fine." "Let's go" "This place is too small" "No complaints at times like this" "We will help ourselves" "Come here and have a seat" "Xu Chao, Xu Chao" "It's too dangerous here" "The enemy might attack us anytime" "We should strike into the enemy's ranks before they attack us" "Go to discuss with Yanan... - ...- and see if we will join them" "Of course we are joining" "I think she is carried away by her emotions" "She is planning to follow Xu Jianbai" "She will never go to the battlefront" "Yanan, Yanan" "What's the matter?" "I am going to get married" "That's great" "The sooner the better" "Yang Ziyun almost drowned the other day" "If he had died" "I would have regretted it for the rest of my life" "He's proposed many times to me... - ...- but I never approved before" "Great." "I will prepare the wedding for you" "I knew you would approve it" "Let's go and discuss about it inside" "We will tell them tomorrow" "I am so busy now." "It is easy to say but what's a wedding ceremony like after all?" "What kind of ceremony do you know?" "I don't know." "I never paid attention" "Hey, why don't you ask me?" "You know?" "We saw so many weddings when we were kids" "I well be in command in a while" "Now I am in trouble" "Hey, don't speak nonsense" "OK, we can start now" "Will the bride and the bridegroom be seated please" "We have been waiting here already" "No, that's not right" "We must first decide who represents the bride's family" "Of course sister Yanan" "You are the bride today and can't just talk as you like" "Shame on you" "Yanan now represents the bride's family" "How about the bridegroom?" "Me, me" "I fit the role better than anyone else" "Objection" "If it is him, he will make fun of me for the rest of my life" "You are the bridegroom" "You cannot talk as you like either" "Shame on you" "You start fighting already even before you get married" "OK." "Now the wedding starts" "Now will the bride and the bridegroom kowtow to each other" "Bow for the first time" "Bow for the second time" "Bow for the third time" "Now send the two to the nuptial chamber" "How could they stay here?" "Is this the nuptial chamber?" "Where are they going to stay?" "I have an idea." "Come on" "Now into the nuptial chamber" "OK." "Now here we are" "Where is the wedding drink?" "Already here" "This is the wedding drink" "You have to bring your own glass" "We also have a wedding cake" "Here, a toast to you two" "Hey, this is plain water" "A toast to the bride and the bridegroom" "We didn't even give them a wedding gift" "At times of escaping, we have to skip that" "Yanan, I've made up my mind to be with you for the rest of my life... " "...- just like Yang Ziyun and Little Rain" "They got married today, we will tomorrow" "We will work together, live together take hardships together, and enjoy happiness together" "We will do everything together" "Promise me, Yanan" "You promise" "Oh, no, Little Rain is crying" "Let's go in and take a look" "What is the problem?" "Did you bully her?" "No, no" "Speak out, say sorry to her" "It isn't him" "What is it?" "When I was a little my mother said that... - ...- a wedding should be solemn and august where a feast with a hundred tables would be served... - ...- and the bride would be presented in a red dress" "Look at what I am wearing now" "You have to compromise a little now" "Wait, I have the right dress" "You?" "How could you have something like that?" "We don't have much good stuff at home" "My mother gave me her only decent dress" "In case I run out of money on the way" "I can sell it" "I am already married and can make no use of it" "Yanan, you and Jianbai should also take care of the big thing in life" "This dress is for you now" "OK" "Yanan" "Where did they go?" "They left before dawn" "What?" "Yanan, the view is not bad here" "but we will have to go before dawn" "In the past months" "I don' t know how many times we have been relocated and how many places we've been to" "Your eyebrows have been knitted these days" "Anything bothering you?" "It is nothing" "Is it because the harsh life in the army?" "You don't think I can take the hardship here?" "You are wrong" "I hate it... - ...- that we have never been in a real battle" "It took so much to be a soldier" "If we cannot have a good fight it would be such a regret" "We will encounter the enemy anytime and sacrifice anytime." "Aren't you scared?" "I wouldn't have been here if I am scared" "Yanan, you know I admire you all this time" "Thank you" "Yanan, for all this time there is one thing I dare not to say" "But one gains more courage in a battle field" "Now I have the courage to tell you" "What is it?" "I, I" "Just say it" "I love you" "This is not the right place talking about love" "I know" "I don't want to fall in love either" "I know that as well" "It is good that you know" "I know you are still thinking about Xu Jianbai" "Between love and country" "I already made a choice" "So you make up your mind giving him up?" "I will wait until the war is over" "I just don't get it" "What's so good about Xu Jianbai?" "He is not faithful to love" "He was in love with two girls in the past" "How did you know?" "He told me himself" "However, those girls were probably too ordinary" "Maybe, unlike you they have no knowledge on democracy... - ...- and country" "Miss, Miss Zhu" "A-Lan" "Qiuming, you?" "I've joined the battle front hospital" "I had thought... - ...- you could stay in my family for the holidays" "I came to say good-bye to you" "Good-bye?" "When are you leaving?" "Early tomorrow morning" "To the battlefront?" "Qiuqiu" "Aren't you afraid of the danger?" "No" "You've changed a lot" "I remember when you were in the countryside" "You encouraged me back then" "Now, you have more courage than I do" "I am no longer better than you" "What am I going to do after you leave?" "How about you coming with me?" "A good idea indeed but I must consult with my mother and father" "You have to talk to Qiuming" "A-Lan joined the battle front hospital" "Qiuming is also think about going" "All right" "Uncle, auntie" "Tomorrow, she" "I know." "She is leaving tomorrow" "I hope you come back soon" "Mother" "I've talked to your Dad" "It is not bad... - ...- that you are willing to work at the battlefront but I think it is a pity... - ...- if you give up the musical school" "At times like this how am I suppose to enjoy playing piano and singing?" "Your teacher is going abroad soon" "You should take this opportunity... - ...- to learn more and serve the country in the future" "Why don't you all go to bed early?" "A-Lan has to leave early in the morning" "We are all going to see her off" "She will be my soul companion after you leave" "Qiuming, your father was right" "You'll have a lot of opportunities in the future" "Write me wherever you go" "Of course." "You are the only relative I have" "This has been mine since I was a little" "I want to give it to you" "You put it on me" "They are leaving" "Yes" "Have you talk to the captain about my request?" "Not yet" "Hey, little brother, the war is not a game" "You'd better" "I am not afraid of sacrificing myself" "OK" "Could you please do me a favor and talk to the captain?" "Excuse me, captain" "Come in" "Excuse me, captain" "The student who was ordered to garrison... - ...- insists on going to the battlefront" "Who is it?" "His name is Xu Jianbai" "Xu what?" "Xu Jianbai." "He wants to look for his fiance at the battlefront" "Fiance?" "A soldier named Su Yanan" "Su?" "Could it be A-Lan?" "Let him in" "Captain" "Have a seat" "Xu Jianbai, you are requesting to go to the battlefront but you don't seem to have the right motive" "Captain, I" "Squad leader Zhang has told me" "You join the army... - ...- for looking for your fiance?" "A girl named Su Yanan" "Captain, do you know where she is?" "No, but I want to ask you about someone else" "Who?" "A-Lan" "Is her last name Zhu?" "A girl from the countryside" "You don't know me, but I know you" "My last name is Li." "I am Li Zhizhong" "So you are A-Lan's?" "Right" "Captain" "So you didn't take her with you" "Her family opposed it" "So now you have another fiance?" "Captain, not a fiance" "She is a friend, a classmate" "Captain, let's talk about the personal matter sometime later" "As long as you allow me to go to the battlefront" "I will be your man" "If this was three years ago" "I would have beaten you up badly, but now" "Captain, everyone is assembled" "All right" "Please deliver a spiritual speech" "I will be right there" "Captain, I will do my best for you" "All right, you can join us" "Thank you captain" "Captain, I can't go to the battlefront empty handed" "You cannot bring any luggage to the battlefront ei" "I mean I want to have a gun" "OK." "I'll give you one" "Squad leader Zhang." "Squad leader Zhang" "Dash to the front battle." "Go" "Squad leader Zhang." "Squad leader Zhang" "Yanan, Yanan" "Lay down" "It is great we are together again" "The wounded from the battlefront need to be regist" "Staring from today the field hospital will take care of registration" "Captain, you've been so enthusiastic" "We feel very grateful" "I will tell soldiers at the battlefront all about your work" "Miss Huang Peiying" "No need to be so polite" "You are in charge of registration from now on" "Yes, captain, but I am afraid that... - ...- it might affect us saving the wounded" "We may not have excessive manpower but should still be OK" "I am thinking about asking Zhu Lan... - ...- to substitute me for this job" "Because she is not in good health but still very enthusiastic about her work" "She hasn't taken any sleep for couple of days" "I am afraid she will be sick" "Better arrange her to handle some easy work" "All right." "Why don't you go and tell her" "Our captain wants me to tell you... - ...- you are now assigned to take care of registration" "Did I do anything wrong?" "No, you've been too tired... - ...- and should work on something easy" "Give first aid to the severely wounded... - ...- and take the hopeless ones to the backyard" "This is the new list of the wounded" "You will be in charge of checking the list from no" "Yes" "These all need first aid" "Excuse me, where is Xu Jianbai?" "Who?" "I don't know any of their names" "These ten listed severely wounded are they all here?" "Some died on the way and wouldn't be sent here" "What?" "Some were brought over dead and buried at the back" "What are you doing?" "What is there to see about the dead?" "Jianbai" "Could you please leave here?" "Comrade" "What is there to see about the dead?" "Who said he is dead?" "Take him back quickly" "Doctor Zhang, if I am in the right blood group please take mine for transfusion" "How could we?" "You are suffering from anemia yourself" "What can we do then?" "Are you here to see Xu Jianbai?" "Could you tell me the name of that nurse?" "She is Zhu Lan" "Doctor Zhang, about the blood transfusion?" "Leave it to me" "Are you talking about Xu Jianbai?" "Yes, we are" "We've got it" "From whom?" "His captain." "He just came from the battlefront" "His blood type is O... - ...- and he is willing to make blood transfusion for Xu Jianbai" "Where?" "Captain" "brother Li" "Are you truly willing to make blood transfusion for Xu Jianbai?" "Of course" "We must save him now" "Captain, this way please" "Don't worry" "He still has hope after the transfusion" "Yanan, Yanan, where are you?" "I am here" "Yanan, I finally found you" "Look, I always carry your stuff with me" "Don't go." "Don't leave me." "Yanan" "A-Lan, is he all right?" "He hasn't recovered from coma yet" "The doctor said he had brain concussion" "This is his" "Su Yanan" "You know her?" "He mentioned once." "Now I know it is she" "She is a soldier." "She came back one day ahead of u" "Is she also here?" "They are leaving soon." "Maybe she is still here" "Look straight." "Look to your right" "Hi, are you leaving?" "Yes" "Yanan, are you Yanan?" "Where did you get this?" "You must know Xu Jianbai" "How is he?" "He is wounded, and is in the hospital" "What?" "Is it very bad?" "Very." "Could you come to see him?" "I am leaving now." "Who are you?" "Tell me what exactly happened to him?" "He mentioned to me about you before" "Now it is the best you two are together again" "But he wants you" "No, I am not going to see him" "Why not?" "Don't ever tell him you meet me" "Why?" "I am leaving" "Who knows what's going to happen tomorrow" "I do this for him" "Promise me you won't tell him that you found me" "Although we never met before, we are now acquainted" "Promise me please." "I appreciate it very much" "Yanan, when are you coming back?" "Maybe soon, or maybe after the war is over" "Could you also promise me something?" "Come to visit me in my hometown... - ...- when you come back" "I am an orphan you know" "I know" "So are you coming?" "I will definitely come to see you when I come back" "Mr. Xu, you are awake" "I am Zhu Lan's colleague" "Zhu Lan?" "She just went out." "She will be back soon" "Zhu Lan?" "This is" "This is the Third Battle Front Hospital" "You have been in coma for many days" "A-Lan, is she here?" "She has been beside you all day and night" "How could she be here?" "How about Yanan?" "Who?" "You must be very tired" "Why don't you take some more rest" "A-Lan." "Is it really you?" "How did you get here?" "There are just so many unexpected and unusual things aren't there?" "The other night" "Let's not talk about the past" "No, it was yesterday" "I heard your voice." "It was your voice" "Yes, I have been right beside you" "But?" "You just recovered from coma" "Don't talk too much" "A-Lan, for all these years, you?" "Close your eyes." "I will tell you everything" "Since you left... " "Captain" "Don't move." "Lay down" "A-Lan, this is?" "You forgot?" "We are... " "My brain just isn't working" "Don't worry." "You'll be all right soon" "Captain, there is someone wounded together with me" "Who was it?" "Su Yanan." "How is she?" "She?" "I don't know so well either" "Don't think too much" "Now you have A-Lan as companion" "What is the matter?" "It is nothing" "Oh, you are having a fever" "Doctor Zhang, she is sick" "She is too tired" "She doesn't eat nor sleep at all for taking care of Xu" "How is he related to her any way?" "I don't know either" "Captain, you must send her to the rear right away" "What is your diagnose?" "She needs to rest... - ...- and shouldn't stay here and work anymore" "All right." "I will send her away as soon as a vehicle is available" "You want me?" "Yes, brother Li." "I want you to do me a favor" "I will do anything for you" "No, it is about Jianbai" "I figured" "I am sick and have to leave here" "If Jianbai knows it, he will feel very sad" "I am thinking it would be better to make him hate me" "Could we tell him... - ...- that we are getting married?" "Of course it is a lie" "It is only for deceiving him" "Where is A-Lan?" "She is talking to the captain at the door place" "A-Lan" "Good morning" "Take a seat and have a rest before you go for more work" "What is wrong?" "Jianbai, there is something I have to tell you" "What is it?" "My wound won't recover soon?" "It is about me" "About you?" "I have to tell you about this sooner or later" "We are going to get married" "What?" "This is the good news I came to tell you" "But he is going back to the battlefront?" "That is why we want to have this done quickly when he is taking couple of days off" "We are all leaving" "It is very dangerous here" "The wounded soldiers are also retreating to Changsha" "I have more good news for you" "Qiuming has joined the team for cheering up the troops" "She is now in Changsha" "Talking about Changsha, we now arrived in Changsha" "The Chansha girls are as fresh as flowers... - ...- those attract the bees" "However, I just cannot forget... - ...- the female tiger at home" "She is so much like a tiger with a crooked mouth and a nose like the shape of a garlic her eyebrows pointing upwards her eyes are crossed and ears are just like big fans" "She talks loud" "However she is the best in producing babies" "Within three months of her marriage she already gave birth to a little monster" "Never try to calculate because you just cannot" "He could crawl at the age of one, walk at two and at three, he could cause a lot of troubles" "In eight or ten years he will be able to carry a gun and become a soldier" "Hey, you are swearing on us" "Don't be short tampered, my soldier brother" "You were like a pony twenty years ago" "Now the times have changed" "To be a soldier is the best choice" "Take off your Cheongsam and change into your army suit" "You are now equipped with great military skills" "You fight for neither fame nor money" "Stand still or march forward there is great significance in all that training" "As long as you are winning in the battle field" "Even me have to suck up to your ass" "Please have a seat inside" "Could you tell me... - ...- where the cheer team from the rear is performing?" "Which cheer team?" "We have cheer teams performing every night" "I am not thinking about watching any show" "I am looking for someone" "It doesn't hurt to have some fun... - ...- after coming back from the battlefront" "Looking at the Yellow Goat Slope there are so many yellow goats on the slope" "With two antlers on each forehead why the goats don't say a word" "Coming to the Five Mile Cave... - ...- where the cold wind is blowing" "My girl's face is all red because of the wind" "Now Coming to the Ten Mile Mountain... - ...- where cucumbers were planted" "Let the cucumbers grow on their own... - ...- while I keep wishing you coming back soon" "Now here is the Clear Water River... - ...- where a pair of geese are resting" "When the soldiers are crossing the female geese keep yelling for love toward them" "When hearing the military bugle blowing and the drum beating my tear drops like the rain" "I just want to hold your hands tight" "Now putting down my hands... - ...- let me tie this flower on your clothes" "Don't ever forget... - to kill the enemy and return home" "Seeing this flower is like seeing her and it reminds me her words" "Don't be afraid" "Defeat the enemy" "How can face her again without victory" "Marching to the battlefield in high spirit" "I can hear all that gunfire" "For protecting our home, we must win" "How can I face my parents without victory" "Anchor, anchor" "Qiuming, Qiuming" "Please be quiet." "The alarm is on" "Please go and hide in the air-shelter" "Please keep in order." "No hurry" "Go in order." "Please no hurry" "Qiuming, Qiuming" "Excuse me" "Which room is Miss Ma Qiuming from the cheer team staying in?" "There isn't anyone with that name" "Oh, Miss Ma Li" "She left" "Where did she go?" "She went to take the train" "When did she leave?" "Just now, not long ago" "Come on." "This way" "Qiuming, Qiuming" "Cousin, is it you?" "Don't leave, could you?" "Or, I will come with you" "Just a moment" "Could you tell our regiment commander... - ..." " I am not leaving today?" "Why?" "I just met my cousin" "I have so much to talk to him" "Cousin, cousin" "Qiuming, I am here" "We almost forgot to pour tea" "We are together again" "I almost missed you" "When I heard the name Ma Li last night" "I turned around right away and was about to leave" "Who would have known you are also called Ma Li?" "It was my Christian name" "It didn't sound like you... - ...- when you sang on the stage either" "It is for comforting and cheering up the troops" "It is not a real concert... - ...- and you want me to sing like this... " "We almost forgot there are other people in this world" "My father wants me to go abroad... - ...- to do more study on music" "Do you think I should go?" "I, I don't know" "I will do whatever you want me to do" "About yourself you can continue your study in the rear" "I will wait for you" "There is one thing I must tell you" "Whatever it is, just tell me" "Remember that time I was affected with typhoid... - ...- and you saved me?" "Let's not talk about the past" "What I want to say is... - ..." " I almost lost my life in the battle once" "Fortunately, someone saved my life" "A girl named Su Yanan" "She was a classmate of mine, and is now a soldier" "I would have been dead if not because of her... - ...- and wouldn't be able to see you today" "I still don't know if she is still alive" "I really don't know what I should do" "The train is leaving." "I don't have time to eat" "Waiter, the bill" "Please be quick" "You are back" "Why are you back?" "Of course, I have to go with you guys" "Now, listen" "We strive to go forward" "Our health could be good or poor" "Let's count one two one, one two three" "There are gatherings and separations in life" "Don't feel sad for temporary departure... - ...- because the final victory is coming" "A-Lan, open the door" "She is sick." "Take it easy" "Is she deaf or dead?" "Are you trying to make us stand here for punishment?" "I couldn't hear you" "You couldn't hear us?" "There is something I have to tell you, A-Lan" "We heard people say... - ...- that the Li's family received a letter from thei" "Li Zhizhong was promoted to be a battalion command ...- and is coming back" "Old man Li passed the word saying... - ...- if we could not return their betrothal presents you would have to marry their son" "I have no way returning the betrothal presents" "It is your problem." "Think of something yourself" "Besides, they said... - ...- they would leave behind the shameful act of you and Xu" "They want you to marry Li Zhizhong... - ...- as soon as he returns" "But I already gave all the money I had to you... - ...- when I came back" "If you don't marry him, the Li's family will never let go" "A-Lan, ever since you parents passed away" "I've been feeding you till now" "You wouldn't be so pitiless to bring me trouble would you?" "A-Lan, say something" "I can't do this" "Are you still thinking about Xu?" "No, I am not" "What's on your mind after all?" "You want to be an old spinster... - ...- and make you uncle feed you all life long?" "Stop dreaming, damn it" "You are so shameless and just don't care about face" "A-Lan, it seems like... - ...- you have to marry him even though you don't want to" "Hey, what do you think you are doing?" "First of all, we are driving away the ghost of illness for A-Lan" "Secondly we are giving a warm welcome to a guest" "A-Lan" "Qiuming" "How did you become so skinny?" "Did anyone bully you?" "Tell me about it." "I'll fight for you" "Miss Ma, since you are here, let's talk about it" "She was fine... - ...- when you took her and left" "Now she came back being severely sick" "We are worried to death" "Don't worry." "I will take her away" "No, I can't go like this" "It will be all right" "We will go after you recover" "I will take care of you" "Go?" "What about the trouble with Li's family?" "Xiaomei has told me about it just now" "I thought you had married Li Zhizhong" "You fooled everyone" "I will pay for the betrothal presents from Li's family" "As long as you say so" "Don't take it to gamble again" "No, I won't" "From now on, A-Lan is mine" "Don't you dare to touch her" "A-Lan, this is for you" "Qiuming," "I want to go out and take a look on the street" "Now?" "You are still very sick" "I recovered a lot because you came" "Don't go outside." "It is a big chaos out there" "Everyone is so happy" "We should go and join the crowd of celebration" "A-Lan, A-Lan" "She came to disturb you so early in the morning" "I will go" "A-Lan." "Someone came to see you." "A soldier" "A soldier?" "Could it be Jianbai?" "Look at you." "You can't meet people like this" "You go out and take a look" "I came to see Miss Zhulan" "She is sick." "You are?" "My last name is Su" "Are you Su Yanan?" "Yes" "Please come in" "She is sick and can't take too much emotional stimulation" "If it is about Jianbai" "I mean bad news about him, better not tell her" "You can tell me." "I am Jianbai's cousin" "You are Ma Qiuming" "I came specially to see A-Lan" "Yanan is here" "Do you still remember me?" "You actually came?"
