The Starry Night, The Starry Sea
- Episode 32 -
I will tell Regulus your final wish.
If it has to do with his life,
I will not allow there to be any losses!
Even if there's only a slight risk!
I'm sorry!
Please tell Wu Julan for me,
"Forget me, and live on well."
Regulus!
I'm sorry.
What are you apologizing for?
You're sorry you chose to love me? Or you're sorry for letting me live on?
Wu Julan, I finally understand
what the words you said on the beach that day meant.
Is this your choice?
It's my decision.
Even if you regret it in the future?
Even if we end up hurting in the future.
Actually, this is pretty good, too.
This way, you can only remember the most beautiful me.
Love and life are the same.
Fresh flowers and thorns will always be together.
If my love is a flower, I am willing to embrace it's beauty.
If my love is a thorn,
I'll also embrace the prick and pain without hesitation.
Even if the thorns were to prick through my skin, and penetrate into my heart,
it's fine just as long as I can be a little nearer, a little closer to you...
Granny,
I'm sorry. I went against your wish.
Now... what use is saying those things now?
It's too late now.
We've lost the only chance to save Regulus.
I betrayed you, but I don't think I was wrong.
I understand how Regulus feels, and I chose to respect him.
So--
So, you spoiled him?
You let him give up his precious life?
To go fulfill his love?
You're all people controlled by magic!
This isn't magic. This is the most powerful feeling in this world.
You don't have to understand it, you just have to believe in it. It exceeds materialism,
exceeds desire, and exceeds societal norms.
In front of him, flesh and life are just like drops in an ocean.
It isn't worth mentioning at all.
Regulus, I've done an unforgivable crime.
According to the rules, I am willing to accept your punishment.
Please go ahead.
Violet, I know that you did all this for me.
But I hope that you can understand that the meaning of life
is to protect the one you love. Love... is more important than life.
I only have one day left.
Ever since 1865, when I first made acquaintance with the first witch from your family,
all of you had already worked for me for a hundred and fifty years.
For these hundred and fifty years, I want to thank you for all you've done for me.
Starting from today, you don't need to listen to my orders any more.
You-- You're throwing us away?
No. No!
Please punish me alone.
I am willing to accept all your punishments.
It's not throwing away. It's an eternal goodbye.
There's nothing that goes on forever in this world.
There is a day when the fate between us will end.
I will forever remember what you've done for me.
Regulus!
Goodbye forever, Violet.
Regulus. Regulus!
Regulus! Regulus!
Liangliang, I'll leave Regulus to you.
I don't have the bravery...
I don't have the bravery to see him leave.
I hope you can continue to watch over him until the end.
Don't worry, I will.
Also, you must take good care of Shen Luo.
I'm afraid, this is the last thing we can do for Regulus.
After you go back to New York, do you have any plans?
Regulus's wish is to take his foreign assets
and donate them to charity under Shen Luo's name.
He hopes to be able to discontinue the research projects on merpeople.
He also hopes to share the current findings free of charge.
I also have to
announce Regulus' decision to the entire family.
This is a difficult task. I will have to put much work into it
and comfort them all well.
There are many things waiting for me.
However, after I'm done with all of this,
I can probably spend the rest of my life in peace as Regulus wished.
You really intend to stay?
I found love and the most important person in my life here.
I think... I will stay here forever.
Love isn't magic.
Even the most powerful witch cannot break it.
I wish that you will be happy, child, forever.
I thought!
I thought Buyan would be together with me after Da Tou was caught!
I didn't think that Buyan would cruelly leave me here all alone!
Where does it hurt?
- Did your wound break open?- No, no, no!
My heart hurts!
Even my physical wounds cannot compare to the pain in my heart!
Should I go see a doctor?
What doctor? You should take a look at who is standing in front of you!
Aren't you a psychologist?
What psychologist? What do you know?
Besides treating mental illnesses, I can treat many other illnesses, too!
I can also treat lovesickness,
and love wounds!
Don't forget!
I have retired for a long time,
but thinking of years gone by, I was undoubtedly the renowned Casanova on the island.
Yes, your specialty was flirting with young girls.
What do you know? Wu Julan was my disciple!
Look! Xiao Luo didn't believe in love before, right?
Under my teaching, now
they are so in love, they're like the same person! Right?
Teacher! Please allow me to bow to you!
Rise!
Let me teach you.
First, you have to change.
- This flowery shirt. Change it. Change it!-Okay. I'll change it.
And your gold chain! Get rid of it!
Just one look is enough to show anyone you are a thug. A man depends on his style like a horse depends on the whip. Your taste in clothing has to be elevated.
Also! Um...
you have to send Zhou Buyan texts for no reason all the time.
You have to care about her everything!
You absolutely must not go online and plagiarize those cheesy love notes. You've to go with your heart.
Go with my heart, my heart.
Also! What is this trick called?
It's called "a thin stream flows forever" (work on something steadily over time). Even if Zhou Buyan is a rock,
you'll still have to "let the water drip till it penetrates the rock" (persistent efforts can overcome all difficulties).
Thank you, Teacher, for your lesson!
This is Wu Julan's final day.
I cannot look sad.
I must face Wu Julan happily.
Wu Julan?
Wu Julan! Wu Julan!
You couldn't have disappeared without a word, right?
Wu Julan! Wu Julan!
Does it hurt?
Where did you go so early without even saying hello?
I went to prepare for our honeymoon.
No wonder you were being so secretive.
Where are you taking me?
You'll know when we get there.
What do you want to do now?
There's nothing I want to do right now.
I just want to be like a regular couple.
Let's spend this day regularly, okay?
Liangliang! Liangliang!
I heard you've officially transferred to our hospital?
Then that means, you won't leave in the future!
What? You want me to leave?
Yay!
Of course, I don't want you to leave!
I just didn't think that this sort of good thing would happen to me!
This couldn't have... an important meaning, right?
What do you think?
Could it be?
Could it be what? Do you need me to say it?
I'll say it! I'll say it! Of course, I'll say it!
In that case, you'll have to let me ponder over it and think of what to say.
Who are you?
It's me, Zhu Yiyang!
Zhu Yiyang?
You changed quite thoroughly!
How is it? I'm making an extreme makeover to express my resolve for Buyan.
I've washed away any semblance of a local bully!
That's right. I acted as you taught me.
I sent her a text every hour.
But she didn't respond at first. But this morning, she responded without me asking!
What did she say?
"Please don't send me a text every hour. I couldn't sleep because of it."
Is she interested in me?
I guess it counts. She didn't sleep last night because of you after all.
I think so, too!
Why won't she let me text her?
You lack experience in this.
In this phase, a woman intentionally appears to be reserved.
She says she doesn't want it, but in her heart she really wants it!
You can't be reserved. You have to keep on pursuing her!
Okay! Change of plans!
Every half hour, I'll send her a text!
I'll send one right now!
"There's a painting exhibition in Qingzhou next week. Are you interested?"
Zhu Yiyang! You are--!
What does this mean? She's asking me out!
She's asking me out! Buyan is asking me out!
Liangliang will get jealous if she sees!
She won't!
That's right! I helped you out so much. Shouldn't you help me out?
No problem! Who am I?
Righteousness is way up as high as the sky!
- Thank you, Doctor.- Take your medicine on time.
- Okay.- Next!
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.- What are you doing?
Dr. Wu! This is bad!
The next patient fainted in the garden!
Yeah! Hurry, hurry! Hurry up!
Come, come, come! It's this way! Hurry, hurry!
There, there! Hurry!
Jiang Yisheng! You cannot die!
What am I supposed to do if you die?
We grew up together! We haven't played enough yet!
Dr. Wu! He said that only you can cure his illness!
Hurry and take a look!
He says this is lovesickness!
The symptoms of his illness...
I don't know how to continue the story-line!
I forgot the lines!
You continue to fill in on your own, okay?!
Fill in on my own? You're stupid!
Zhu Yiyang, you really match your name! You're as stupid as a pig!
You can't even memorize a few lines!
- Just tell her!- I--!
Say that for my illness, as long as she is willing to marry me,
then my illness will get better right away! Hurry and tell her!
I'm willing.
Whoa!
Wow!
Xiao Wu! Xiao Luo!
- Village Chief.- Village Chief.
Congratulations on your marriage.
Look at the two of you. A perfect pair.
It's really a beautiful scene on our island.
Looking at the two of you, it's so pleasing to the eyes, and also makes one feel pleased and relaxed.
Village Chief, you are exaggerating.
When do you intend to add a few babies to our island?
Village Chief, you're so nosy.
This depends on Wu Julan.
What does that mean?
Come, come, come. Listen to me. I have a second aunt.
She's a famous doctor of Chinese medicine!
She specializes in all kinds of fertility difficulties.
Do you want to come with me to pick up some medicine for you?
- Let's go!- No, no need.
Village Chief, Wu Julan is shy!
Wait for me!
Hurry and take a look! Shell crafts!
Our island's specials, personally hand-made by our island's number one good-looker.
It seems like ever since I married you, my attractiveness has been rapidly declining.
You're a married man now, what else do you want?
I like this one! This is pretty!
-This one is pretty!- Looks like your attractiveness can only attract kids now.
This is good, too!
- Yes, this is good.- Do you like it?
- Yes!- Yes!
Which one do you like?
I like this necklace!
I like this boat.
- I like this hair clip!- Really?
But this uncle with a serious face says these things are very expensive.
Children, if you like it, I'll give them all to you.
Really? We all get one?
Okay! Hurry and find your friends!
Okay!
Thank you!
- Thank you!- Hold on tight!
- This is for you.- Everyone gets one.
I want one, too!
This is yours.
Come!
Come, put this hair clip on.
How delicious! Wu Julan, how could you create good food out of the foods I don't like?
I heard you say before that you gained two pounds lately.
You know I gained weight, but you still made so much delicious food!
Is this your plan? What good is it to you to make me fat?
No matter what you become, you are still the most beautiful in my heart.
To be able to see the one you love grow fat,
and make good food for her, for me, this is happiness.
It's also a luxury.
Then I'll let you see what it means to bear the consequences for your own actions!
Wait!
Hm?
I didn't see anything! I saw nothing!
I didn't see a thing!
I'm sorry, we're done eating now. Come earlier if you want to eat.
What's up? In your eyes, am I only worth that much?
We came to tell you some good news.
I'll say it!
Liangliang has officially accepted my proposal!
Really? Alright, Jiang Yisheng! You do have some capability!
Of course!
Congratulations. Xiao Luo and I will definitely prepare a big gift for you.
But now that you mention it, it's thanks to you two that I can be with Liangliang.
The two of us have reached a happy ending now.
But you two--
Liangliang, you've come just in time. There's something I want to say to you.
Wu Julan said he's taking me on our honeymoon later.
But he's being very secretive, he won't say a thing.
Wu Julan, don't be fooled by his serious look.
Once he becomes romantic, he'll be pretty deadly. You have to prepare yourself well, okay?
Xiao Luo, after today, what do you intend to do?
I just want to spend today happily like this. I haven't thought about the future yet.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned your sad things.
It's okay!
Before Granny left, she told me to take care of you. If you have any requests, then tell me.
This is hard on Wu Julan and Xiao Luo.
They know that they'll separate forever tonight, but they still have to force themselves to smile.
Don't be too sad. No one can change Wu Julan's matters.
You've already done your best.
You don't understand.
Why don't I?
It's that Wu Julan can't make it past tonight, right?
They know he can't make it past tonight,
but they are still going on their honeymoon.
Isn't that making Xiao Luo watch Wu Julan die?
What kind of honeymoon is that?
Okay, okay, don't cry. Don't cry.
Don't cry. Don't cry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't talk about that.
Let's not talk about Wu Julan, okay?
Let's talk about happy things!
When should we get married?
Do you want an eastern style wedding or a western style?
Okay, don't cry.
♫ Once upon a time, I wished with all my heart ♫
Look. That is the door to our honeymoon.
Do you take this as the arbitrary door in an animated movie, where you can go anywhere you want?
♫ as long as I’m by your side, ♫
♫ even the most desolated days have romantic night skies ♫
Open it and take a look.
♫ I am strolling about the distant starlight ♫
♫ The light radiating at the moment we meet is brighter than the galaxy ♫
♫ I am strolling about the dazzling look in your eyes ♫
The ocean is my world.
For our honeymoon, I want to take you to see the place where I was born and grew up.
There's a lot of my memories there.
Can I, my wife?
Let's get going, my groom.

Look. Among the sea of stars,
many dazzling stars have actually fallen long ago.
Some died many thousands of years ago.
But our eyes are still able to capture their dazzle.
Even if it is many light years away,
our hearts can still feel their warmth.
In this world, sometimes it is very hard to differentiate between life and death.
But some people are fated to just be shooting stars.
But that light will stay within my sky and shine down on me.
Happy marriage, Wu Julan.
Happy marriage.
Before Granny left, she told me to take care of you.
If you have any requests, just tell me.
I need a vial of angel's trumpet poison.
You... want to save Wu Julan?
Xiao Luo!
I'm sorry.
I know. My love is selfish.
But I still wish for you to live on.
No matter if it's a hundred years, or two hundred.
I hope that you can forget me one day.
Xiao Luo! Xiao Luo! I've been waiting for you for a thousand years!
