A Mobile Love Story / Ai Qing Zhan Xian

I’m a bit of a sucker for romantic films/series…. And although last night, I was so crazily tired – I had to watch the last episodes of my latest addiction!!!

When the mainland series aired on TV late at night and only once a week, I was a bit sceptical…. Cos mainland films are generally quite “slow”! Another bad thing for me was that it was spoken in mandarin (with english subtitles), I didn’t have a clue who any of the actors/actresses were cos it’s a mainland production with actors/actresses from China/Singapore (I generally only watch TVB HK drama series). However, after the first episode, I was addicted!!! The plus points were that there were really beautiful actors/actresses! The storyline was different from your average love story and the finale was just fabulous!!! The film ended perfectly – the way it should if life was fair but you were in suspense right up until the last scene of the the last episode!! How I love endings like these!!!

Story Summary:
Yun Fei (Wallace Huo) is a famous advertisement director. During his wedding, his fiancé Su Fei (Yvonne Lim) left him without saying a word (she has brain cancer and didn’t want to burden him), leaving him depressed and down in the dumps.

On the first day of the New Year, Yun Fei sends a sms to Su Fei, telling her about his thoughts and pain. Bei Bei (Han Xue) who was at the subway station picks up Su Fei’s handphone, and this starts a romance with Yun Fei – with the two of them sms-ing for a year without realising who each other are.

Bei Bei is a tour guide. In the beginning of the series, she accidentally mistakes someone as a tourist and gets to know Lizhong (Christopher Lee). The two of them get along very well, and Lizhong falls for Bei Bei. However, after Bei Bei discovers that Lizhong is a rich man’s son, she rejects him. Lizhong does not mind about the rejection and perseveres, and even consoles Bei Bei at any first chance when she is upset. This touches Bei Bei’s heart.

Because of an accident, Bei Bei realises that she loves Yun Fei. But at this moment, Bei Bei meets Su Fei. It turns out that Su Fei was stricken with cancer but did not want to burden her sister You Li (Luo Shan Shan), thus she left home. Bei Bei takes Su Fei in, but debates with herself whether to tell this to Yun Fei.

Later, You Li mistakes that Yun Fei dumped Su Fei because of her illness, and takes revenge on him. She lets Yun Fei meet Su Fei. Yun Fei knows that during that year when he was about to get married with Su Fei, she had the cancer and it couldn’t be controlled, thus Su Fei chose to leave behind the man she loves. To make it up to Su Fei, Yun Fei chooses to accompany Su Fei, neglecting Bei Bei.

Bei Bei decides to leave with Lizhong to Singapore, and when she was bidding her farewell to Yun Fei, she uses Su Fei’s phone to send a chain message sms to an unknown random number and told Yun Fei that if this sms goes back to Su Fei’s phone withing 2 years, it will prove that they have an affinity with each other and will then be reunited.

2 years later, Bei Bei returns back to China. Lizhong continues to wait patiently. Will this sms go back to Bei Bei’s handphone in the end or do Bei Bei and Lizhong get together?!!
