Do you believe in pure friendship between a man and woman?
你相信男女之間存在純潔的友情嗎？
Yes, that's a tacky question. But like "love at first sight", screenwriters, filmmakers and TV producers still have a lot to say about platonic friendship.
誠然，這是個有些俗套的問題。但就如同“一見鐘情”式的愛情一樣，這種柏拉圖式的純潔友誼仍被編劇，電影、電視制片人們所津津樂道。
The latest work of this type is the Taiwanese romantic drama In Time With You, which tells the story of Cheng Youqing (Ariel Lin) and Li Daren (Bolin Chen), who end up together after being each other's best friend for 14 years.
這一類型的最新代表作當數臺灣偶像劇《我可能不會愛你》。劇中講述了程又青（林依晨飾）和李大仁（陳柏霖飾）再做了14年好友后，最終攜手走到一起的故事。
They have very different personalities and sometimes you just don't see the attraction. Cheng's a tough, stubborn young woman; Li is a warm-hearted, soft kind of guy who often gives in to Cheng's bad temper and takes care of her.
兩人性格截然不同，有時你也不明白這兩個為什么會彼此來電。程又青是一個固執的姑娘，而李大仁是一個熱心，溫柔的小伙子，常常要忍讓程又青的壞脾氣，還要一直照顧她。
All his kindness to her is in terms of friendship of course, because Li has once said that he would never fall in love with a girlfriend like Cheng. The pair also swear that they would never be romantically attracted to each other.
當然，李大仁對程又青的百般呵護完全出自于友情，因為大仁曾說過他絕不會愛上程又青這樣的女生。他們還一同發誓永遠不會喜歡上對方。
During their search for potential lovers, Cheng often says the girlfriends Li finds don't suit him. Meanwhile, Li is not happy with the guy Cheng is going out with. As time goes by, Li can't deny his feelings for Cheng. Yet he's unwilling to accept the truth because he doesn't want to ruin their friendship.
在他們尋找可能牽手的戀人對象時，程又青常常認為李大仁交的女友配不上他。同時，李大仁也對程又青的交往對象感到不滿意。隨著時間推移，李大仁無法否認對程又青的感情，但他不愿接受這個事實，因為他不想破壞他們的友誼。
So, as "I would never fall in love with you" becomes "I might not love you", the series comes back to a simple point: to hide the true feelings in one's heart, or, to take a risk and tell the truth?
所以，“我絕不會愛上你”的誓言變成了“我可能不會愛你”。全劇回歸到最簡單的問題：是去隱藏心中的真實感受，還是冒險說出真相？
It's a hard decision either way–lying to ourselves is as painful as the risk of losing one of the most important people in our lives. But Li takes the risk anyway–fortunately , Cheng is there for him, like always.
無論選哪個，這都是個艱難的抉擇，因為欺騙自己的感情同可能會失去生活中最重要的人，兩者都讓人痛心。而李大仁決定無論如何也要冒這次險，幸運的是，程又青已經站在他身邊了，或者說她從未離開過。
The ending might make you believe less in platonic friendship between men and women, but it also seems to deliver a positive message: If you're lucky enough to have a soul mate like Cheng or Li, never let him or her go, because he or she might be "the one".
盡管故事結局或許會讓你對男女之間柏拉圖式的純潔友情更生疑問，但它似乎也傳達出積極的訊息，那就是：如果你足夠幸運，身邊有一位像程又青或李大仁這樣的精神伴侶，不要錯過，因為他／她可能就是你的真命天子。
