They require a security deposit in the bank,

then you can go to the U.S.

Don't listen to him!

Focus on making money, punk. You know how to make money?

Show off when you have money, OK?

Finally! Here we go...

Goods from Hong Kong,

it's a hit in Hong Kong, probably in the whole world.

What is it?

Open it!

Be careful!

This is fun!

What the hell is it?

No...

What are you doing here?

The yo-yo that took Hong Kong by storm is here in Beijing.

A sensation!

How much? $5.

I wouldn't pay $1 for it, let alone $5.

Some tricks, let me show you!

Be careful!

Xiaojun...

Help Old Ji sell it.

Take a look

I'm doing fine selling socks.

What? I'm doing fine!

Your hair is messed up.

The socks are selling great.

What a big mouth!

Starting to get angry?

Fatty, why are you standing there?

You like it?

Take one home if you like it.

You have money?

No?

No? Go ask your Dad.

Dad...

Just give it to him.

Up to you.

Thanks sister.

Xiaojun, I'm not teasing you, can't you tell!

It's none of your business!

I slave myself for nothing!

Sister, sister

I want one.

Me too.

Xiaojun, they're popular!

One for each!

OK, line up.

Don't push!

Pay and take one.

This way.

So it's really you!

Anran!

Sun Yuejin!

Long time no see!

Long time no see!

Yongyuan, I really can't tell!

My treat!

Great!

Bottoms up! What about you'?

You said you don't drink?

You're quite a drinker.

Xiaojun!

What are you doing here?

Just a coincidence.

Join us. My old classmates.

Hello! Nice to meet you.

Ill get some drinks.

No, I'll do it.

You really look like a movie star.

The next song is for my buddy.

He wants to dedicate it

to a very special girl.

I pray for love without any pain

but I can't stop the tears

I pray that I can forget you

but I still sing the song you taught me

In the company of my shadow

I know it in my heart

and I know...

Anran, what are you doing here?

How did you know it's me?

I've followed you for so many years,

I recognize the sound of your footsteps.

I don't believe you.

Even if I close my eyes now

I can still tell your footsteps

in a crowd.

Why get such a thick blanket?

When I was little,

I made holes easily in my blanket

that made me feel cold at night.

From now on, you'll never be cold again,

things will get better.

I'm your family now.

You kept this?

One for each of us.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

The thought of Zhao Yongyuan

makes my heart beat faster.

I don't know how to deal with

the little changes between us.

Eat it while it's hot.

What's wrong?

You're sick?

Anything you wish to tell your dad?

The yo-yos are sold out.

Anran never showed up again.

I know she's going to leave sooner or later.
