[The Little Match Girl]
[Once upon a time]
on a very, very cold
and snowing Christmas Eve,
the little match girl had no family to reunite with
and had to stand in the streets to sell matches as it snowed.
However, no matter how much the little girl asked,
everyone ignored her and no one was willing to help her, who was so pitiful.
At this time, a rough passerby
bumped into her without seeing her.
The little girl fell down on the snowy ground.
How tragic. How pitiful.
The little girl had no mother, only a bad father.
She didn't dare return home if she didn't sell all of the matches.
Dejected, the little girl lit a match for warmth.
She then saw her mother's silhouette in the flame.
The little girl smiled happily.
But when the flame went out,
her mother's silhouette disappeared with it.
The little girl became very upset,
so she lit another match.
This time she saw that her mother had prepared an extravagant Christmas feast
and she was extremely happy by her mother's side.
But before she could enjoy it,
the feast disappeared.
The little girl lit each match one-by-one
and saw the silhouettes of all her dreams.
She wants to go to a faraway place.
She wants to find her mother.
She wants to never be bullied by others again.
In the end, the snow continued to heavily fall.
The little girl was about to freeze to death.
However, she suddenly had an idea!
If there was something that could give off heat,
and can be carried around at any time,
wouldn't that be more useful than a match?
"Mister! Mister! Please buy a box of matches from me."
"Take the money and keep the matches to keep warm."
Then, the little match girl
used this money to invent something that people could carry around with them to keep warm,
which is the heat pack! [Heat Pack]
And then she became very rich!
Hey, that's not how The Little Match Girl ends.
She freezes to death.
She already doesn't have a mother, why does she have to be that pitiful?
I just want her to invent the heat pack and earn a lot of money.
This is a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale. It's known across the world.
No one can change it. She froze to death!
Give me back the book! The little girl became rich and very happy!
Don't tell them nonsense! She froze to death!
No! She became...

Are we really going to Taipei? How are we getting there?
Everyone, look at this. The brightest area is Taipei.
As long as we keep going north, we'll get there.
It's not that simple! If it was, then why did they invent maps?
You're so annoying. If you don't want to go to Taipei with us, then go back to sleep. Let's go.
Ugh! So annoying...
Where are we going?
We're going north.
Are you kidding me? We're going to be walking through a field soon.
But we can't keep going north if we stay on the road.
I don't want to go to Taipei anymore! My feet hurt and I can't keep walking!
Don't cry. Yuanyuan said that if we walk just a bit more, we'll be in Taipei.
We can play video games for free.
- I don't want to play games! I want to go home! - Zhao Yuanyuan, where are you going?!
We've reached Taipei. Taipei's over there!
Taipei! We're in Taipei!
Wuxian, Zicheng, Meixin, we reached Taipei!
- Taipei! - Hou Zicheng, wait a minute!
It's over there!
Stinky monkey, wait for us! (T/N: 'Hou zi' in 'Hou Zicheng' name sounds like 'monkey')
Wait for us!
This is... Taipei?
The video games, where are the video games?
What are you doing?
Let go of me!
Another one? Don't you move either!
You little rascals, what are you doing in my flower farm in the middle of the night?
You want to steal my flowers?
We came to Taipei to play games, not to steal flowers.
Taipei? This is Changhua.
We walked all night, but we only went from Yunlin to Changhua?
Hey. Don't joke around with me.
Yunlin to Taipei? Just you two kids,
even if you walked for another day and night, you wouldn't make it there!
Here, come with me!
Sir, sorry about this.
I'm the dean of Compassion Orphanage. These are my kids.
- These kids are yours? - Yes, yes, yes. - They came to steal my flowers.
in the middle of the night. You need to keep an eye on them.
- I know. Kids love playing around, right? - Yeah.
Sorry about all this. Thank you.
You kids, aren't you too mischievous? What are you doing out so late?
Quick, quick. Let's go home.
Wuxian? Yuanyuan?
If you two don't come out now, I'll just leave you guys here.
What's wrong? What's wrong?
Don't cry, don't cry. What's wrong?
Mom lied to me.
Taipei's actually very far away. Why did she lie to me?
It's so far away and she still left me here all by myself. Why?
Your mom must have been mistaken.
Don't worry. I'll make sure that you're never alone again.
Really?
I promise.
You both came to this orphanage around the same time.
You both didn't know your own names or your parents' whereabouts.
When we did your family registration, you guys took on my surname, Zhao.
I even registered the same date of birth for you two.
You both had your names taken from the same phrase.
Why is there so much difference between you two when it comes to personality?
Wuxian,
in the future, you should become Yuanyuan's big brother.
If Yuanyuan does something wrong, you should reign her in. You understand?
No problem!
Dean Zhao, you've mistaken him for someone else! Zhao Wuxian isn't what you think.
He's actually very sly and pretentious.
It's all because he didn't head north when he was riding his bike. Otherwise, we'd already be in Taipei.
Do you really wish to leave this place?
I want to go to Taipei to earn lots of money.
All right, I'll give you an opportunity to earn money.
According to the rules, you can only stay here until you're eighteen.
If you calculate it, you still have eight years left.
That's a little over four-hundred weeks.
Every Sunday,
you have to draw a cross in a box, then I'll give you NT$50. (Note: about US$1,60)
Thank you, Dean Zhao!
Hey! That's not fair. She led us in running away, yet she still gets money?
Wuxian you're her big brother now. You have to go easy on your little sister
and make her happy, okay?

It's already Monday today. Why didn't you come to get your money?
It's nothing, I just...
Just...
♫ When I think of you ♫
Do your best.
Yuanyuan,
I didn't think that you'd be able to fill all the boxes.
Unexpectedly, you filled them all up completely.
Keep it.
Dean Zhao,
I wasn't obedient when I was little. I'm sorry for making you worry so much.
I can only worry until today.
Starting now, you'll have to rely on yourselves.
Wuxian, you're the big brother. You have to take care of your little sister, understood?
Dean Zhao, I thought that
I could get rid this fake brother if I leave this place.
If you dare, then end this friendship.
You're so childish. I don't want to play right now.
Dean, if any child misbehaves, let me know.
I will come back to help you teach them a lesson.
Do you really like to fight? Look at him, Dean Zhao, Stinky Monkey is going to Taipei to be a thug.
Don't let him go! He'll end up in jail.
Older Bro Ah Ming, let me tell you, you really have to be careful of Meixin.
- The reason why she married you is probably because of your money. - Hey!
Don't speak nonsense to my husband!
All right, all right! Stop messing around. The train is here.
Yuanyuan...
Hey, let's take a picture, okay? I brought a camera.
Take a picture. Take a picture.
Here. Get closer together.
Here, get ready.
Is the little pig fat?
Fat!
- All right. - Okay.
Take care.
Dean.
Then, we're leaving. Take care of yourself.
You guys, too.
Dean, don't worry. I'll take good care of them both.
Dean.
- Dean, I'll never forget your great kindness! - What are you doing?
A drop of water shall be returned with a burst of spring! Every autumn, every lifetime, until forever!
- All right. - Dean, thank you! - Okay, that's enough!
I'm telling you the truth.
All right. Get on the train.
Let's get going! Our luggage is inside already.
- Go on. - Let's go.
- Good-bye, Dean. - Good-bye.
Meixin, good-bye! Ah Ming, good-bye!
- Fighting! - Bye!
Dean.
Bye, Meixin! Bye, Dean!
You have to come back and visit!
We're going!
What are you doing? Are you an idiot?
Stop pretending. Take this and cry.
Go away.
Good-bye...
The hometown that may or may not be my hometown...
The first expense when arriving in Taipei...
"Cell phone"? Hey.
You're going to slaughter your piggybank just for a phone?
Of course not! Did you forget that I have a NT$3600 coupon to spend?
I think that we can buy a pretty decent cell phone with NT$3600, right?
Then, what are all these stores listed here?
It's a list of restaurants we have to go to when we get Taipei. I'll show you. Take a look.
There's Yuanhuan's oyster omelet and this fried taro.
There's also traditional tofu pudding and jelly tapioca pearls. We definitely have to go.
How about it? Is there anything you want to eat in Taipei?
Oh, last time I heard that Taipei has that, what was it?
The Ningxia Night Market. I heard the Yunlin duck potage tastes super good. We definitely have to go there to try it.
Yunlin duck potage? Why are you going to Taipei to eat Yunlin duck potage?
Why didn't you just stay in Yulin to go to college?
Hey, a university in Taipei gave me a scholarship. It's not like I got to choose.
You're lucky! I have to work for my tuition once we get to Taipei.
No kidding. You think three times two is nine. Who would give you a scholarship?
It equals six! Annoying!
You also could've chose to stay in Yulin, then you wouldn't need to spend so much money.
I don't want to.
Why don't you? Don't other cities have what Taipei has?
Only Taipei has winners.
What?
Think about it! HBL (high school basketball league), professional baseball,
taekwondo, and the Math Olympiad all have their finals held in Taipei.
Therefore, the final victors are all in Taipei.
So... you want to go to Taipei to compete in the otokonoko finals? (T/N: a Japanese word for men who cross-dress as women)
You're so annoying!
What are you doing? I was joking! Why'd you hit so hard?
I have to conquer Taipei before her.
Auntie, have you seen my mom? My mom said that she's taking me to the children's amusement park.
There's no transportation going to the children's amusement park from here, only to Taipei.
She said that she was taking me to the children's amusement park. How can she go to Taipei by herself?
She abandoned me for Taipei.
She didn't even leave me a name.
I have to conquer Taipei before her and make her regret abandoning her daughter.
Also, if it weren't for Meixin ratting us out to the dean when we were running away to Taipei,
I'd probably already be a boss in Taipei by now.
Attention commuters, we are approaching Banqiao Station.
Banqiao? Then aren't we almost at Taipei?
Midnight Taipei's Yuguang said on the way to Taipei, you'll definitely see
a big hotel that looks like a palace.
He also said that the AC in the hotel is super strong.
The lobby has huge sofas that are very comfortable. We definitely have to try them out!
Hey! Why's it dark suddenly?
And you call yourself well-informed about Taipei.
Don't you know that Taipei's subway system has gone underground?
Really?
Hey, Houzi, look at her.
♫ Oh... ♫
And she says that she knows Taipei so well.
♫ Not afraid of anything ♫
♫ Oh... walk forward ♫
♫ Oh... Not afraid of anything ♫
Wow!
Woah, it really is much bigger than Douliu station.
No kidding! This is Taipei!
This place reminds me of that song.
- ♪ We grew up here ♪ - ♪ grew up here ♪
- ♪ We're learning here ♪ - ♪ We're learning here ♪
♪ Compassion Orphanage ♪
Shut your mouth! Do you want everyone to know that we're orphans? So embarrassing!
It's okay. We always sang songs from the orphanage when we had field trips. I think it fits well.
That's right, and we are orphans, okay?
Please, how old are we? Why don't you go back to the orphanage then?
Coming to Taipei, of course you have to sing:
♪ Ooooh, not afraid of anything ♪
♪ Wo-ah... walk forward ♪
♫ Oh... not afraid of anything ♫
- Anyway, we're here right now. We probably have to go this way. - Hey!
Hey, what are you guys doing? Stop looking. You guys look like bumpkins.
If we don't read the map, we won't know where to go.
I know the way. Let's go.
Hurry up! Hurry up!
♫ Walk forward ♫
Hey, look! That's the Shinkong Mitsukoshi Department Store!
The National Taiwan Museum is below.
When you make a turn, you end up in Ximending.
Oh, you really did do your homework.
No kidding! I've studied Taipei for a long time, okay?
Wow! There's a thick smell of scooters!
This is what Taipei smells like. Smells so refreshing!
F*** Taipei!
You like Taipei?
You can have it. I don't want it.
He really did leave everything here. What if there's something important in here?
Let's hold onto it for him.
Wow! It's Taipei 101. So pretty.
What is this?
Let's clean up.
There's one more thing that we have to do in Taipei.
♫ Oh... Not afraid of anything ♫
To adjust to life in Taipei, I've already prepared an EasyCard.
The bike just became available this March. So cool!
♫ Oh... Not afraid of anything ♫
Oh.
Great, great, great.
♫ Oh... walk forward ♫ [Taipei Hyatt Grand Hotel]
Here comes the princess!
Don't you think that Zhao Yuanman turned crazy the second we arrived in Taipei?
Hey, Zhao Boba! Do you want to help Zicheng find a house or not? (T/N: fen yuan = boba/tapioca pearls, a play on Yuanman's name)
If we don't find one today, you're paying for the hotel!
That's right!
The rent is NT$10,000 per month.
Utilities are not included. The main switch is over there. The AC is newly installed.
You don't have to be afraid during the summer. What do you think? Are you satisfied?
Let us discuss it first.
This is too expensive.
It's NT$10,000.
You can rent a townhouse in Yunlin with NT$10,000.
Here, we can only rent...
I think we should check out some other places first.
Otherwise, the environment here isn't too bad.
Hey, it's Taipei 101! You can see Taipei 101 from here! Let's rent it!
Where?
There!
Why are we renting this place just for Taipei 101? It's smaller than your keychain from here. Stop joking around.
Are you guys talking about Taipei 101?
Everyone looking for places to rent in Taipei all want to see Taipei 101.
It's the tallest building in Taiwan. I can see it from my house. Saying that is like handing out a business card.
Everyone sees you in a different light.
But you guys are still young, don't take it seriously.
Mr. Landlord, we are pretty interested in renting this place,
but your rent is much higher than our budget allows.
Is there any chance you'd lower the rent?
Are the three of you living here?
No, the two of us came to Taipei for school.
He came to Taipei to look for work, so he's the one that will be renting.
But the two of us will come here pretty often when we have nothing to do.
Plus, our dorms don't open until tomorrow,
so both of us will be living here tonight if we do rent this place.
Also, our schools are in opposite directions. He'll be in between them, so it'd be easier for us to meet here.
Can I take a look at your ID?
Zhao Wuxian. Zhao Yuanman.
Your birthdays are on the same day. Are you guys twins?
No.
The three of us grew up in the same orphanage.
It's just that when we first got to the orphanage, we didn't know our names or our birth dates.
So we just took the dean's surname, Zhao.
That's right. Afterwards, the dean used the phrase "Seeing perfection, life is immaculate" to name them.
Oh.
How about this?
Pay me for the entire first season. Monthly rent will be NT$8,000. Plus a deposit of NT$40,000. Okay?
That's okay. We'll scout around first.
Hey, wait, hold on. Let us talk it over first.
What?
Hey, monkey. Don't you have NT$8,000?
I have NT$3,000. Plus, with Xinyi, Daan, and Zhongshan (names of her piggy banks), we'll have more than NT$30,000.
But we're still a few thousand short.
- Big Brother. - Don't call me "big brother."
You only call me big brother when you need a favor from me.
Big Brother, Yuanyuan wants to live here!
Aiyo...
Hey, Zhao Boba, these are all your memories from the past eight years.
That's fine. These past efforts were all for the sake of achieving a future.
Okay, the amount of money is correct. I'll go get you guys your keys, the contracts, and buy you some blankets.
Just wait for me here.
- Thank you, Mr. Landlord! - I should be the one thanking you.
Taipei 101, I will come here and watch you often. You're my goal.
One day, I will be as tall as you.
And I'll surpass you and be taller than you.
Mr. Landlord, thank you!
Welcome to Taipei!
Hey, what are you doing?
Huh?
We just rented this place.
Who did you guys rent it from?
The landlord, he went back home to get the keys.
Nonsense. I'm the landlord. I live right downstairs.
- Huh!? - Huh?
What was that grandpa doing?
Why did he keep the door unlocked and let a fake landlord trick us into giving him our money?
I don't even have money to buy a cell phone. If we have to spend the night in a hotel, we'll be spending even more money.
Am I going to starve to death before I even find a part-time job?
We're screwed! We'll have to live on the street tonight.
Huh? I don't want to! We'll look like non-local homeless people.
What do you mean non-local? We are from somewhere else.
Just because you wanted to become a Taipei person, all our money was swindled away.
Hey, what are you saying? You're pushing all the blame onto me?
Weren't you haggling with the fake landlord earlier?
Plus, what's wrong with wanting to be a Taipei person? If it weren't for the dean stopping us then, I'd already have conquered Taipei.
Are you still dreaming? If it weren't for me calling the dean and asking him to take us home,
you'd have become fertilizer in the chrysanthemum field.

So it was you who snitched to the dean?
Yeah, I was the one who called.
But reality proves that I was right. You should thank me.
Who wants to be grateful to you? Go eat poop!
Ever since we were young, you've only ever known how to give me a hard time!
You think that I'll fail at everything! What right do you have to look down on me?
Ever since were young, whenever you didn't do your homework, I was the one who got punished.
Whenever you did something wrong, I was the one that had to go and apologize.
Do you know that having you as a little sister means I have to say "I'm sorry" an extra ten-thousand times?
- Hey, all right— - Do you really think you're my older brother!?
Thanks to you, I get compared to you in everything!
If you didn't exist, my life would be a hundred times better!
Fine! We don't have a fence or a door now.
No one's stopping you! Congratulations, you don't have to deal with me anymore.
I was waiting for this day to come!
Just keep riding north and see where you'll end up!
Yuanyuan! Hey!
Are you not going to chase after her?
Don't worry. She's just going to return the bike. She'll be back later.
Let's go and take the subway.
- Hey, hey, hey! - What!?

Are you guys all settled?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're all just about settled. Don't worry.
Oh.
Are Yuanyuan and Ah Cheng next to you?
Not right now, because I came out on my own to call you through the payphone.
So, uh... both of them are burnt out from playing on their first day in Taipei.
They're passed out at home.
Those two rascals. Let me tell you,
both of them come up with a lot of wicked ideas and are rowdy.
You have to look after them and stop them from doing ridiculous things. Got it?
All right. I know.
Dean, don't worry. I'll look after them properly.
All right, you must be tired, too. Go to bed early.
Okay, Dean, you have to take care of yourself, too.
Okay.
Good-bye.
Bye-bye.
Welcome, everyone, to Midnight Taipei.
After a busy day, Taipei has finally become calm again.
This is the best time to calm down,
write in your journal,
or not do anything. Let your old friend, Yuguang,
chat with you and play you songs. Listeners,
did you have a good day today?
Not good.
Later, I want to tell you guys about a topic.
Besides picking up a listener's phone call,
we will also play the song of a lucky listener through fax.
Let's see whose fax—
What did you say? I can't hear you.
I don't want to.
Okay. Go find Ah Zhong.
I have a construction project.
No need... Just say your own things.
Just do your own thing. I don't want to.
- We received all the cards you sent, they're all - I don't want to.
—beautiful. All of our coworkers really liked it.
Go find Ah Zhong, don't look for me.
Now let's listen to a—
Don't reduce my construction, okay?
Who do you want to speak to?
Hello, I'm Yunlin's— No.
I'm Taipei's Zhao Wuxian.
I want to tell my younger sister to stop being fussy.
Hurry up and come find me at my school. Don't wander around by yourself anymore.

You have dreams for Taipei, isn't that right?
You think that Taipei's your stage, isn't that right?
Yeah! I came to Taipei with a dream! So what?
Too bad. What Taipei the thing Taipei lacks the least is dreams.
Little girl, listen to me, just keep your dreams to yourself.
Later on, you'll become a civil servant and live a nine-to-five life.
Don't let other people stomp on your beautiful dream.

Yesterday, our band agreed to disband.
But it seems that we all couldn't bear it and came back.
Life's hard and Taipei is cruel.
But, why is that, when I'm on stage, it feels like nothing can get to me?
Because even though Taipei doesn't lack dreams,
what it has the most of is hope.
Give it back to me.
Don't give up.
Cheers.

Swipe your card when you get off.
- Huh? - Swipe your card when you get off.
Oh.
Ah, sorry. Sorry.
Uh, what the driver meant is that you swipe your card when you get off at a stop.
He didn't mean that you had to get off the bus to swipe your card.
I've taken the bus for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen someone do that.
What are you laughing for? If you keep opening your mouth so wide, your jaw will dislocate.
Hello? Yeah, it was so ridiculous!
She has so much stuff. Can it be she that she's going to the same school as me
and is also moving into the dorms today?
I beg you, please have her get off the bus.
God, she'll probably repeat what just happened earlier each time she sees someone.

Hello, I'm looking for a first-year new student named Zhao Yuanman.
May I have her phone number?
I'm sorry, because we want to protect our students,
we can't give out her contact information.
Do you want to leave a message? I can deliver it to her.
Oh, okay. Then... can I trouble you to give her my number?
Okay. I'll hand it to her.
Thanks.
I'm a first-year new student, Liang Yiqing. I'm here to check in.
All right.
Someone earlier was looking for your class's Zhao Yuanman.
If you know her, can you give this message to her?
But I haven't met anyone from my class yet.
It's okay, it's okay. I'll get to know her later. Just give it to me.
Thanks.
Hello, how are you? My name is Han Mizhen, I'm studying chemistry. You can just call me... Xiao Mi.
Hello, Xiao Mi.
I'm Chen Shufang. I'm majoring in Chinese. You can call me Fangfang.
- Fangfang, hello. My name is— - "Get Off and Swipe Card."
Hi.
You're also living in this room, "Get Off and Swipe Card"?
♫ When I think of you ♫
Hello, how are you? My name is Han Mizhen, I'm studying chemistry. You can just call me... Xiao Mi.
Hello, Xiao Mi.
I'm Chen Shufang. I'm majoring in Chinese. You can call me Fangfang.
- Fangfang, hello. My name is— - "Get Off and Swipe Card."
Hi.
You're also living in this room, "Get off and Swipe Card"?
You can't be studying...
Tourism! Are you, too?
What a coincidence! We have the same major and are staying in the same room!
I'm Liang Yiqing. What about you?
Zhao Yuanman.
Zhao Yuanman? Zhao Yuanman...
Why does this name sound familiar? Where did I hear it from?
Wait for me. It's so painful that I can't remember it right now.
Let me think. Zhao...
You must not be from Taipei, right?
Huh?
Only nonlocals buy that Taipei 101 ornament.
Why did you call her "Get Off and Swipe Card" earlier?
Because I was on the same bus as her,
she wanted to swipe her card when she got on the bus...
Hello, how are you?
- My name's— - Zhao Wuxian. You're a first year studying Industrial design.
Hello, I'm Sun Zhihao. I'm also studying industrial design. We're classmates in the same grade.
Hello. How did you know my name?
- Because your name is all over the room. - Oh.
Did you just get discharged from the army
and haven't gotten rid of the habit yet?
No, I haven't enlisted in the army.
Or... did you come from a place with a lot of thieves?
Huh?
Hello?
Hello, students. Welcome to the Dongshan dormitory. Just a reminder, there will be a gas maintenance from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., so...
On the left. Left. Left!
They're attacking! Surround them! Surround them! Quickly!
See? You lost.
Hey.
Look.
Wow, where did you so many NT$50 coins from?
Didn't you always say that—? Hey, you missed!
Didn't you always say you don't have enough change? I especially went to the bank to exchange some for you.
You're being that nice? Thank you.
There's a cafe up front. Why not skip work for thirty minutes and have some coffee with me?
Okay.
Let's go.
Liar! Give me back my money!
Stupid liar! Stop running! You're still running?!
Keep running! Taking my money to hit on girls, you're so generous!
If you have the guts to swindle money, then don't run!
You only ran a couple streets, and you're this tired.
How do you expect to survive out here?
I'll take the rest of the money, plus interest. That shouldn't be unreasonable.
What's wrong with you?
Hello, I'm here for a job. My name is Zhao Yuanman.
I can start working anytime. If there's an open position, please contact me.
All right, okay. I'll contact you when our store has an open position.
Thanks.
Keep looking for it.
Get off and Swipe Card?
- It really is you. - Hey. Your friend?
This is Shasha. She's also in our class.
Hi, I'm Shasha.
Hello, I'm Zhao Yuanman.
Her nickname is Get Off and Swipe Card.
Why?
Because on registration day, I happened to be taking the same bus as well.
When she got on the bus, she wanted to swipe her card and the driver told her to swipe when getting off.
So she got off the bus and tried to swipe like this from outside of the bus.
Have you said enough?!
You keep talking about my story all day long. Are you a broadcast station?
Uh... didn't you say you wanted to take a look at the pop dance club?
We're going to go take a look at it and shop around.
Why was she being so mean?
Furthermore, this is a bookstore.
So embarrassing.
Is she usually like this?
[Student Dormitory]
Hello? This is the Industrial Design Department.
I want to ask...
for first-year new student Zhao Wuxian's dorm phone number.
I'm sorry. We are not allowed to give out student's contact information.
But, I'm his little sister.
Am I not even allowed to find my big brother?
Calm down, this is for our student's safety.
I'll leave him a message. Okay?
Then, you can tell him, who needs him as a big brother? I'm much happier without him!
What kind of big brother is he? I even had to take the initiative to call and look for him!
It's so annoying.
Let me tell you, I went to the Ningxia Night Market last night and the Peikang duck potage was so good.
Is there anything you want to eat at Taipei?
- Take a look. - Oh.
Last time I heard that Taipei has that, what was it?
The Ningxia Night Market.
I heard the Yunlin duck potage tastes super good.
We definitely have to go there to try it.
Hey, Classmate. Classmate.
May I ask how I can get to the Ningxia Night Market?
Hey, Uncle.
Do you know how to get to the Ningxia Night Market?
Make a right turn at the red sign up front and you'll get to the Ningxia Night Market.
Oh, thank you.
But, if you're going to eat oyster omelets, the stall isn't open today.
It's not like that. I'm just missing the taste of my hometown's food.
Peikang duck potage.
When I came to Taipei, I also missed eating Meinong's free-range chicken every day.
I would take public transport to Taipei and when I saw Grand Hotel Taipei,
I knew that I had arrived in Taipei City.
And then, I'd start missing Meinong.
Uncle,
the Grand Hotel Taipei you just mentioned,
does it look like a palace
and have a lot of people in the lobby for the strong air conditioning?
Hey, you also know about that?
Can you tell me how to get there?
I'm going to the Grand Hotel.
Boss, one duck potage.
- Okay. Have a seat inside. - Okay.
♫ You've never cared about the relationship between us ♫
Miss, you're done eating. ♫ I show off my independence, ♫
There will be a seat open soon. ♫ but I actually want your concern ♫
♫ A question, a hidden reminder, ♫
♫ you didn't realize it, but that would resolve the ambiguity ♫
♫ Am I out of my mind, or... ♫
Boss. ♫ did I overrate your cleverness? ♫
May I ask if you've recently seen a guy ♫ did I overrate your cleverness? ♫
who's about this tall, ♫ did I overrate your cleverness? ♫
looks very annoying,
and has a trashy mouth?
I have so many customers every day.
How would I remember?
Boss, please.
If you see him, can you give him my phone number?
Please, miss.
I sell meat potage.
I'm not a matchmaker that can help you find a boyfriend.
Do I not have to run my business?
It's not like that, Boss.
I lost my older brother while we were walking.
I'm not looking for a boyfriend.
Please.
How about this?
I'll buy an extra two bowls of duck potage.
I meant twenty bowls.
♫ When I think of you ♫
- Excuse me. - Hello.
I want to ask...
did you guys
see a girl in the lobby
with long hair
in a ponytail?
Her eyes are big.
She looks kind of weird.
And...
she'd be in the lobby
for its air conditioning.
No.
No?
Thank you.
Boss, NT$1,000 is just enough.
You have to keep an eye out for me.
Don't worry.
If your older brother passes by, he'll definitely see it. Here, take it, take it.
Okay, okay. Thank you.
Oh, it's so heavy. Boss, good-bye.
[ZHAO WUXIAN, your little sister's looking for you!! Phone: 22368221 ext. 2311. She's very angry] [Peikang Duck Potage is nice!]
Where did she go?
Zhao Yuanman,
Taipei really is great,
so great that you
forgot all about us.
[Shilin Night Market]
Miss.
Are you okay?
I spent so long looking for him,
I even spent my last NT$1000! It was my
food budget for a whole week!
And this was actually Shilin Night Market
not Ningxia Night Market!
Don't cry.
Are you playing a prank on me?
Zhao Wuxian, where exactly are you?
Don't cry anymore.
Yuanyuan!
Big Brother!
Where did you go!? I couldn't find you!
Where did you go? You're the one who ran away.
All right, don't cry.

- Do you know where Zicheng is now? - Don't worry.
He's like a cockroach that won't die. He can survive no matter where he goes.
Why don't you sleep in my dorm tonight then?
Plus, it's weekend, so all of my roommates have gone home.
Whose heart is beating so fast?
Hello, my name is Sun Zhihao.
We came to the networking event to make new friends anyway.
Are you okay?
Okay. Hope you have fun.
Is this what it feels like when you like someone?
