[Translated and captioned by ShibaSubs] [Translated by jackie] [Reviewed by hearthrose] Welcome back to Shanghai Share Life! This show is sponsored by the sports app Keep. Keep helps you burn fat and be happy. Ok, enough of that. Let's see what will happen this episode. Garbage. I can't do anything. You try. What, you're done? Taking a break. I'm about to leave. You got the ticket? I have to go back to work. Okay. -I'll send you off. -Okay. About yesterday.. I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean to reveal it. It's okay. I just think... You and that girl should be more sincere. What do you mean? Just..don't hide. Be open. She seems sincere. It's... She cares about our jobs, so I couldn't say it. I didn't mean to hide it from her. But... She cares about it, and you... Because that day she said we're in the growth period of our careers. Everyone's so busy with work. But after talking about career growth, I actually quit. I think it would have sounded pretty bad. I think if you explained it clearly, she would have understood. -Maybe. -Anyway, she knows now. Just be honest about it. Yeah. Now I have no choice but to talk about it. Now that you've quit, what are you planning to do? What am I planning... I used to think I had a sense of direction but not anymore. I think you should try new things. You should try all kinds of things. You don't know what you haven't tried. This process is just.. Somewhat difficult. It's okay. I think achieving your dreams is always going to be hard. So keep learning. It's okay, you can talk about this with Nana too. Nana... Or other friends of yours. Talking about it with people is helpful. You can absorb more around yourself. I can't stay here to take care of you. You take care of me? Chu Mengna (Nana) Student, 22 years old Chen Xiaowei (Binshen) Pro gamer, 23 years old Jin Yujie Model, 22 years old Liu Keli (Curry) Entrepreneur, 29 years old Wu Kawen (Carmon) Designer, 29 years old Wang Tianqi Salesperson, 26 years old Episode 10, Week 5 "Birthday Surprise!" Paw...paw...paw...paw He won't. He's ignoring you. -Paw. -Ignore him. Silly dog. -Not bad, right? -Pretty good. That big balcony is really nice. Wanna sit? - The second floor balcony? - Yeah. I'm leaving today. -You don't want to play more? -I have to get back for work. Then I'll call Yujie down to see you off. What do you think of the house? It's nice, there's even a basketball court. -It's nice to practice at home. -Yeah. -You're leaving? -Yeah, this afternoon. -Back to Beijing? -Yeah. Have to get back to work. I'll give this guy back to you. -We can't take him. -You can't? Look, they don't want me. Take care of yourself. You can always come back to Beijing. We'll see. Your family is pretty well off, just admit to your mom you were wrong. -Not now. -Why? It's been so long. Just... I'm waiting for my circumstances to improve before I go back. I haven't seen her in a long time. I think that's fine, you don't have to push him. He's a man, right? He has his own dreams. I don't think it's bad to work toward his goals... before seeing his mother again. Sure. It's up to you. Come back to Beijing when you have time. The guys are all there. Sure. Then I'll be going now. -We'll see you out. -No need. -I'll do it. -Let's all go. Come on, Erlang. Let's send him off. Let's go! I'll come again. -Come whenever! -We'll stay in touch. -Bye bye. -Safe travels. -Bye bye. -Bye bye! Erlang, come! Come here. [panelist] So cute! What's going on with Tianqi? I've heard him talk about it a little. His parents are divorced, so he's never contacted his father. Since childhood, his relationship with his mother has been strained. And before, when he was in Japan, he had a pretty big fight with his mom. So then he blocked her. Now he has no way of contacting his mother. If he's not talking to his mom, what does he do about money? When he was studying in Japan, she probably gave him an allowance. What about now? Now that they're not in touch, he works for himself. No wonder he had kind of an attitude about work. It seems like his situation is less than ideal. He probably hasn't adapted to it yet and still struggles with his mindset. That makes sense. Come in. - Can I come in? - Come in. - You're alone? - Yeah. What's up? That play was good. Yeah... what about it? Go see it again. The tickets were also pretty expensive. I guess a bit. Don't worry about it. Carmon told me... I shouldn't have told her. About my quitting my job.. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to... Lie to you or anything like that. Because after all, we'd just discussed it. Suddenly telling you I had quit... I couldn't admit it. You know? You're apologizing to me? Yeah. -Okay. Then I guess I forgive you. -So reluctant. -Thank you. -So we're good. Wait for me a minute. I'm getting some water. What? I got you something. What? Guess! How can I guess? Is it edible? No. I can't guess. Then close your eyes. Close them. They're closed? Open them. What is this? Oh my god. What? Do you like it? I really like it. -Really? -Really. I was so reluctant to sell them. You must have worked hard to find it. I searched for a long time when I bought them. It's true... It was a little time-consuming to find it. I'll cherish it. I hope so. I hope you don't sell it again. I won't no matter what. Thank you. -Why are you being so polite? -I really didn't expect... So formal. -It's like I'm just a stranger. -No. [I'm on the deck, can you come out?] Why did you leave so quickly yesterday? What's wrong? After you told me, I thought Carmon would be hurt. I didn't know what to say. But I know... what I want, so that's why I did it. I think... With what happened with Carmon and me, and how I feel about you, I needed to tell her clearly. What else could I do? I understand that. It's just... From a girl's perspective, it hurt Carmon a lot. And now it's awkward for both of us. Maybe you're right... my approach was a bit clumsy. Maybe I was... Too straightforward. But... I know what's in my heart. When I made my position clear to her, it was all to be able tell you... I like you. But it's all a mess now. Even if I like you too... This timing... I don't think it's a good time for us to be together. Because Carmon is really hurt. It's awkward now. I don't think I can be with you. Then what should I have done? What would have been right? I'm going back in. These kids... We can't hate them. First let me tell you about the emotional change that happened here. Throughout these episodes, these 3 women have really been hating on Binshen. They wanted to stab him on the forehead with their pens. But when Binshen leaned against the railing and said, I like you. My left and right side burst out, That noise. What happened? All it took was the guy saying "I like you" to forgive him? You know how hard it is to actually to use your mouth to say "I like you" to someone's face? Most young people now just type it into their phones. Besides, before, Binshen was so vague. Seeing him brave enough to say it so directly is such progress. If others say this line, it's not as powerful. But for him... So being a good person for a lifetime isn't as good as being the prodigal son. Good people just get bullied. But when the prodigal son returns, you immediately lower the butcher knife. Look at these three women saying all this now. "He's so..." It's because although his methods were clumsy, he really didn't know. He was genuinely clueless. A clueless person can't be guilty. I see. Now I know how to behave in the future. Then what about Yujie? Would you do that? Have you seen such a person in your life? -You mean Yujie? -It's so hard for two people to get there. It took so much effort. Carmon got hurt too. And you won't even date him? Carmon was hurt for nothing. Maybe they all came here to become Buddhists. Carmon is training her mind. Resisting the temptation in front of her. When you turn off the camera are they all like this? They're all floating in the air? -Floating! -I'm convinced. Binshen is standing there at the crossroads of his life values. He really doesn't know where to go. He's thinking, what is this group of girls doing? He's like, didn't you want me to do this? Do you think Yujie gave up love for the sake of sisterhood, or because it was too awkward? The latter. Her reasoning was off. - I think it was in character. - Yeah. She and Carmon have completely different personalities. Maybe she grew up in a different environment, so there are a lot of things in life she experiences differently from Carmon. She can easily express it when she feels uncomfortable. She feels it can't go on. I think Yujie definitely won't date Binshen. -I think Nana and that guy... -Tianqi. They have a chance. I think Tianqi and Nana have everything they need. All they're missing is a room without a camera. When Tianqi was with Nana on the sofa... If there was no camera, wouldn't they have hugged... or kissed? -I don't think it would be so fast. -Wouldn't it? -Wouldn't it?! -Wouldn't it?! I don't think so. They're already like that. Wouldn't they? I felt a little embarrassed to watch it! I wanted to close my eyes. -Too far! -I wanted to cover Teacher Chen's eyes. Don't look! I thought it was pretty cute. Don't you think they should at least kiss or something? No way. They like each other, but... they haven't punctured that shyness. The way they talk to each other is still ambiguous. -You call that shy? -Very shy! -In their eyes and smiles. -Yes, it's in their tone of voice. It feels like they're just one sentence away from becoming a couple. But Tianqi said it, and it still wasn't enough. I think they're going to officially get together. No, they just don't want to be together. I think they will! -Let's see what happens next. -Let's watch. Don't run! Our, um... The closet's door is broken. Fix it. Carmon! You're back. Wanna sit? Sit for a while? It's okay, I'll go up. Come on, sit and chat a little. - What's wrong? - Nothing, nothing. Work has been going well for me lately. It's been pretty relaxed. So I made a small decision. Also a surprise for you. I decided to take you guys camping tomorrow! We can bring outdoor equipment like tents. And we can bring the hot pot stove and ingredients. We can eat hot pot together, hang out together and take pictures. And stay there for a night. We can find a place with mountains, water, and grass. Ok. I'm in! How's it sound?! I can do it. Carmon, can you? We can all hang out together and relax. Yeah. Okay? So it's decided? Then let's depart after lunch tomorrow. -Ok? -Ok. Want a midnight snack? No, it's a little late. -Want to chat? -Sure. Um... I saw that you haven't been home for the past couple days... Is work really busy? Yeah, there's a lot of miscellaneous stuff to do. It's not to avoid Binshen? You know what happened with Binshen? -I heard a little. -Oh, Ok. No, he's fine. It's just that... it's still a bit awkward, to be honest. It's just... It will take a little time. Because I think Binshen might like someone else here. I'm guessing it's you. But I'm also worried that I'll burden you in my current state. Because that's not my intention. If you and Binshen really... do like each other, I'm really happy for you. But... right now, in this state... just give me a little time. Actually, I'm not sure what he said to you. But I think... I don't really want you to drift away from us because of this. Me or Binshen or this house... No, no. I understand you because not long ago, I also experienced a particularly bad relationship. Then, unexpectedly, I joined this big family. And I was healed by everyone. To me, you guys are like my family. So if you weren't here, it wouldn't have... the feeling of being a whole family. Being with you guys has given me a very precious experience and friendship. Actually, in my eyes, friendship is more important than love. I see, but I don't want you to misunderstand. I... I just want to deal with myself first. I want to be in a better place before I can be with everyone again. Because I really cherish this too. Ok, I understand what you mean. And I was quite surprised... I can talk about it with you openly, because I want us to get past it. Yes, it's better to talk openly. It's better to undo the knots in our hearts. Ok. I don't want to come here and gain such a good friendship, only to discover flaws in it. It's quite rare for six people to come together like this. Yeah, we've been together for so long. Wang Tianqi! Binshen! Come out to pack! Come on. Please write proudly on our blackboard, "Today is a rest day for everyone." -Let's go out and be happy, ok? -Ok. I'm coming. Come. Let's gather all of these. Ok? Put the drinks and snacks together. I'll pack these vegetables. Just in time! -Can you guys pack the cutlery? -Ok. -Ok, leave it here. -Got it. Whose coat is this? Yujie's. Yujie, even I can wear your coat! Yujie! Don't I look handsome in your coat? Not really. It looks better on me. Do you walk your shows like this? [panelist] Look at him! He's so cute! I'm not looking. I can really wear her clothes. It fits! Then we're ready to go? Let's go! -Great. -Thumbs up! Let's go. Finally going on an excursion! Finally here! That big tent in front is ours, the biggest one. -Which one, the pointy one? -Yeah. The big pointy one is ours. -The one with the balloon? -Yeah. I asked the people here to prepare it for us, to show that it's ours. Then run, quickly! Okay. Erlang, run! Come on! Erlang can't run anymore. Let's put things here first and tidy up a bit. Okay. Come, come! Let's set up our vendor's booth.. Erlang. You sell here, ok? Hang a sign around your neck. Erlang's Grocery Store. Erlang! What do you want to eat? I'll feed you. 100 yuan each bite. Erlang, 2,000 for this. No problem! Speed up a bit. All right. Erlang. -Why aren't you helping? -I'm watching the dog. Then peel this orange. -I'm petting him. -Oh, right. -Want come candy? -Sure, leave it there. -Can I? -Yeah, sit. Oh, um... To tell the truth, I might have been a bit down because since we went to the exhibit I haven't had a chance to talk to you. I talked to Curry and Yujie and I feel... Everyone's worrying about me right now, but I've completely let it go. I don't want you to feel pressured. I just wanted to say... Don't be stressed. And I hope things can go back to how they were before. I think we're okay, just... Don't hold unhappiness in your heart. Don't worry... I've been thinking a lot these days. I feel... I felt touched by everyone's concern. And I think I'm fine now. Then I'm relieved. Oh, I have something for you. -The logo we mentioned before. -You made it already? "From zero to one." It's.. To help with... Your vision can become a very real thing. I think at your age, you have so many new ideas, and the beginnings of new dreams. This is just a blessing and encouragement for you. - You can peel this off? - Yeah. You can also use it as a pin. Erlang! It's my first time seeing this logo! Feels so different. Just wanted you to be able to pin it on yourself, and express yourself with it. -And on the back there's.. -Yeah. I wanted to put our house on it. -This is our address. -Yeah. Thank you. You're welcome. I'm going to light the fire. Poor Curry. We're just sitting and he's working by himself. The Old Charcoal Seller. [reference to a classical poem] This didn't burn. Hallo! Who is it? Done with class? I'm here! I got you all snacks. Teacher Curry has already started working. I just started the fire. Should we do something? Everyone else is working, it doesn't seem good to do nothing. They've already divided up all the tasks. Then what should I do? You... How about this... Think about whether there's someone... who became one year older today? Is there? What? Can you repeat that? Is there anyone today, on this particular day... who grew older by a year? Today? -Today?...Is there? -Is there? Is there not? No one? Then forget it. It's fine. There is! Who is it? You mean you want a gift? I didn't say that! It's written all over your face! You want a gift? Of course it depends on you. But...you knew I had an exam today; so I didn't have time to prepare anything. Okay. It's ok. It's fine, I'll just silently make a note of it. Are you crying? I'll make it up to you. Next time I will. -Ok? -Ok. Pinky promise. I'll make it up to you. Have some pizza? Is it good? I want some too. Come here. Why? Wiping your butt. It's so pretty. -Right? -Take a photo. There are some beautiful things you really have to experience yourself. -Right? -Yeah. "Some beautiful things you have to experience for yourself." What kind of summary is that? -I'm.. -Such as wiping one's mouth. -Wiping one's butt! -She said wiping his butt. But he's not annoyed. At first, when Tianqi was sitting there not doing anything, and he said, "They divided up the tasks already, let them do it," I thought it was so annoying, why is he so inconsiderate. But then the two of them began to flirt and my opinion changed. You're sitting at sunset and falling in love: That's the most important work. Way more important than fanning the fire alone. He got implicated! Last section, we were arguing about whether if there were no cameras, if they would hold hands, or hug or something. Ziqi, what do you think after seeing this section? It happens step by step. They're just now starting with little touches when they feed each other. So if we think back to the scene in the play room, there's no way they would hug. It would be too fast, progress has to be slow. Do you think this would happen before they hugged? Yes, definitely. Come on, Daxun! -Do it! -Come on, come on. -I don't mind! -We're all friends here. Do you want it? This is harassment. She said I was harassing her! Turns out this is workplace sexual harassment. Perhaps. You got knocked down by Yang Li. This is really intimate behavior. They're already together! No! She would have fed him directly if they were official. This is the step before. Wait, I have to interview Ziqi. You don't think they're dating? This is the early stage. What on earth are your relationships like? Tell me. I'm so curious. What would it take for you to consider it official, if not this? No, this is... the last stage before making it official. It's almost there. But the best part is what Daxun said. Even after rejecting him, she's acting like this. I feel like I've been fooled. -Right? -I was so indignant! Now it feels like it's all for the sake of appearances. There are different kinds of personalities. Tianqi uses his hardship to win over Nana. He sold his model cars, he's out of work, And then her heart softened. -And it's his birthday. -Yeah. -He clutched his chest and said, -"I want a gift." "Someone is one year older today." So I think Tianqi is going to be in a relationship. -Maybe he won't even work anymore. -No, no. He really doesn't care about whether he works or not. He doesn't care about whether he makes money. The only thing that matters is if she likes him. I think that's impressive. Look at Carmon. Carmon had a scene that I thought was really touching. If anyone here has moved me, it's Carmon. -Yeah. -She got hurt badly. But she has the kind of personality where... the next day, she'll actively go to Binshen. She wants Binshen not to worry. -Her heart is really-- -Huge. A beautiful heart. But sadly I think... often this kind of especially selfless person... can't find love. Because you have to be selfish in love. When Carmon was talking to Binshen, I was reviewing myself. I think I'm very small-minded. Those things she did, I could never do in my entire life. I would never be generous enough to comfort someone who hurt me about hurting me. No way. I could never do it. But a lot of girls are like this. I really admire Carmon for it. Because most people, if you tell them they have to endure something like this, they'd say "Why? It's awkward for you?" Why should I care? Why should I make you feel better? "Teacher Chen, we're fine, there's no problem"... I wouldn't be able to say it. I think Curry and Carmon... really know how to look after other people. Look at Curry. He's being all cheerful to brighten the mood. He knows something's wrong, so he organizes this, he lights a fire. He really cares about how the others feel. Carmon, too. That's why she went to talk to Binshen. Because she cares so much about other people's feelings. I thought the conversation between Yujie and Carmon was pretty enlightening. Maybe Yujie used to be like Carmon. -Maybe. -Maybe after she got hurt once, she learned how to express her feelings. She learned how quickly to advance, how to retreat. Not like how Carmon kept pressing forward. I think Yujie is the type of person to side with the underdog. She goes to comfort the more vulnerable person. Look at how she began to develop feelings for Binshen, after she watched his match and he was really sad. And it's the same with Carmon. She got hurt, and Yujie went to stand with her. She's an empathetic person. I get it. To win over such a girl, you have to become vulnerable. Get hurt easily and need protection. Isn't Tianqi like that? She didn't try to protect Tianqi. -No, Nana is... -Nana's already doing it. Let's see who can protect who. Come, let's raise a glass! It's been so long since we've gotten together for dinner. It's been years! Our main purpose for today is to be happy, ok? -Let's empty our cups! -Sure, I'll follow you. -I'm doing it. -Okay. The reason why we organized this trip... Yesterday I said it was because work had reached a stopping point, and I was cheerful. But actually there was another reason. Want to guess? To celebrate success in my exam! -I know! Is it Tianqi's birthday? -Yes! And Binshen actually just celebrated his birthday. He's one day after him. You can't hold two birthdays together, that's too frugal! I thought it would be nice to all get together and celebrate their birthdays. I ordered a cake, it'll be here soon. -I'll go get it for you. -Run! It's a 100 meter sprint. -Yeah, we'll give you one minute. -Like this. Three, two, one. Why's Erlang ignoring him? Erlang's like, who's that idiot? Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you! Blow out the candles! Three, two, one. Happy birthday! -Should we take a picture? -Yeah! Nana, say something! -Say cheese! -Cheese! Let's eat! I suggest we all have some soup to warm up. -We can't catch cold, can we? -Everyone is drinking soup, Mr. Liu. So happy. Actually... I wanted to tell you all something. The Asia Cup is about to begin. For players like me, this is the most important competition. My teammates and my coach... Keep telling me that they really need me. They need me to go back. They need me to be with them to face this match. So we can work hard together. So... So I made a pretty big decision. I'm going back. I first came to this house... in part because I was at... a low point in my career. I didn't know... if I would continue playing professionally... or go home. So I came here. And... I met all of you. Being in the house... I had never experienced something like this before. -Hallo! -Hi! After I came here, it was my first time being with so many friends, living with so many strangers, sharing a life. -What is this? -Potato sticks. Soy sauce flavor. -What are you doing? -Gossiping. Isn't he cute? And everyone took care of each other... Sure, I can help you make a logo. It's okay, just tell me what to do. -Either way I only got an hour of sleep. -Me too. That's good. It's just one loss. There's losses and there's wins. You can't always win, right? I brought you coffee, it's going to get cold. -I can't open it. -So embarrassing! This experience is something... I will never forget in my life. Through this, I got all of you. We gained your friendship, too. It's okay. You still owe me a duck blood stew. Tianqi still owes me a toothpaste. I bought it, it's in the living room. Don't cry, don't cry... This decision was... I'm happy about it, because... I don't want to be so confused like I was before. I think I can continue to persevere on the road of e-sports. So I think... I found my direction here. Let's make a toast, okay? -You got this! -You got this. I'll work hard. Binshen's decision and everyone's tears... made us remember that he's only 22 years old. They're all so young. We can understand the mistakes he made before. And seeing those memories, how we first met him and the scenes of their interactions, you get the feeling that he's still a bit naive. -22 years old... -Just a kid. Still a child. Their relationship is so strong, to be crying like that. If you told me I couldn't live with my roommate, I wouldn't even feel anything. It reminds me of when we first went to college. Just crying at every turn, fighting, drinking. It was like that. When you're that age, your emotions are so intense. And you get hurt, and you grow. You're suffering together. How Binshen said he'll always remember this, it's really true. It's so valuable. Because after a certain age, you can't cry anymore. No matter what happens, you're like, No big deal. -Short of catastrophe. -Yeah. Nothing is a big deal, life is just like this. You still have to go to work tomorrow. It's rare to experience this kind of emotion. I actually feel jealous watching them cry. I'm not sad for them, I envy it. To be able to cry over something like this. -Why are they crying? -It's complicated. The person crying the hardest over Binshen's departure was Yujie. There must have been other reasons why she was crying so hard. I think in her heart, she really does have feelings for Binshen. Only when you really like someone... When everyone else is taking turns to speak, you can't say anything. You can only cry. You can't get the words out. Do you think Binshen can really leave like that? Will Yujie urge him to stay? -Even if she tries, it won't stop him. -I agree. He's determined to leave. Another possibility... He leaves, but could they still date? No. He's gone, why would they date? -But I think it's possible. -Yeah. Because Yujie will always miss him. I think this is the end of the road for them. It won't continue. Ok, we'll wait in suspense. See you in the next episode of Shanghai Share Life. Goodbye! [Translated by jackie] [Reviewed by hearthrose]
