Spring, 2009. Dai Daji finished reading Zhou Shui’s script, overwhelmed with excitement. In her eyes, Zhou Shui’s script was a masterpiece. If their story was turned into a film and seen by the world, Zhou Shui would definitely become famous! After they got off the bus, someone approached them, claiming to be a director as well. He suggested Zhou Shui participate in a directing competition, with a grand prize of three million yuan.

On the rooftop, Zhou Shui and Dai Daji were brainstorming names for the film when Dai Daji suddenly had unbearable stomach pain. Zhou Shui carried her to the hospital for tests. After running tests that cost over three thousand yuan, the doctor called Zhou Shui aside to tell him privately that Dai Daji might have gallbladder cancer. Leaving the hospital, Zhou Shui wanted to hail a taxi, but Dai Daji refused to waste money.

So Zhou Shui carried her onto the crowded subway, his heart filled with complex emotions. Dai Daji asked him what illness she had. Zhou Shui lied and said it was just a stomach ulcer, and that some medication would fix it. Dai Daji’s treatment would cost a lot. Zhou Shui went to Hun Xiang and begged her for help—he was willing to take on any kind of work. In private, Zhou Shui also asked others for help.

Everyone was struggling, but they still pitched in whatever small amounts they could. Wang Jingshu even borrowed ten thousand yuan from a friend—after all, to her, Dai Daji was her only friend in Beijing. Zhou Shui took Dai Daji for more checkups, but only family members could wait inside. Sitting next to her happened to be a cancer patient.

Seeing how young Zhou Shui was, the patient sighed, and it was then that Dai Daji realized her illness was more serious than she had thought. Dai Daji said she wanted to eat roasted sweet potatoes. Zhou Shui ran outside and finally found a street vendor. When he returned to the hospital, he found Dai Daji acting strangely. She forced a smile and praised the sweet potato’s taste, though in truth, she couldn’t even tell what it tasted like.

That night, she called her mother. Her mom was busy playing mahjong and didn’t want to talk. Dai Daji begged her not to hang up, saying just listening was enough. Dai Daji booked a train ticket back to her hometown. She wanted to face this alone and didn’t want Zhou Shui to suffer for her. The train was leaving the day after tomorrow. She and Zhou Shui had twenty-four hours of love left.

She bought Zhou Shui a new camcorder and playfully asked him to record something for her—consider it her will. Zhou Shui, eyes red, kept insisting it was just a stomach ulcer. But he still lifted the camera. Dai Daji’s eyes were already brimming with tears before she even spoke. She handed him her bank card and down jacket. She had one last wish—she wanted to eat roast duck.

She’d been in Beijing for over a year but had never tried it. But roast duck was too greasy; the doctor said she couldn’t have it. So Zhou Shui brought her old duck soup instead. After that, Dai Daji said goodbye to Lao Jiucai, Gangling, and the others, and reminded Wang Jingshu and Gangling to stay together. The final scene took them to Chunzhili.

Dai Daji told Zhou Shui that if he ever got to make a movie, he should film a scene there. But without Dai Daji, Zhou Shui might never even make a movie. Without Dai Daji, Zhou Shui was nothing. Everything they’d been through was worth it, including their love. Dai Daji suddenly had an idea—their film would be called Such a Good Love. A day passed. Early in the morning, Dai Daji left the rental house, dragging her suitcase to Shichahai.

She was still bitter about how Zhou Shui once claimed Shichahai was a sea. Zhou Shui caught up with her. Dai Daji told him she was going home—she knew what illness she had. The two of them lay on the frozen surface of Shichahai, filming the final shot of their movie. They heard the ice cracking, but they enjoyed the feeling of being in the sea. The sun came out. Hope rose with it.
