What Song Did Shan Tsai's/Makino Tsukushi's Mother Sing In Meteor Garden?

It's time for a bit of nostalgia for #FlashbackFriday, isn't it? Here's one Chinese song that I learned to appreciate in the most bizarre way -- it's because this is the song that Shan Tsai's mother would occasionally sing in the first season of Meteor Garden. It's called "When Will You Return" which was a sung by the very much old school 30s songstress Zhou Xuan then it was popularized by yet another dead singer Teresa Teng. What is she singing?

Here's the real lyrics according to Peach Berries and the title is seldom spelled out as "When Will He Return":

Lovely flowers don't bloom very often
Beautiful scenes aren't always here to stay
Worries dissolve my smiles
Memories of love bring back tears
After you leave tonight
When will you come back again?
After this drink, please have a little side dish
We don't get drunk in life often
Why wait to have a wonderful time?
Come, come, come
We'll talk only after you finish this drink
After you leave tonight
When will you come back again?

Pause a little singing for now
Raise both our glasses again
Lovely chatting and sharing our sweet cares
Closely embrace our love together
After you leave tonight
When will you come back again?
After this drink, please have a little side dish
We don't get drunk in life often
Why wait to have a wonderful time?
Ah, let's finish this drink, bottoms up
After you leave tonight
When will you come back again?

I think Shan Tsai's mother is longing for Dao Ming Si's (Tsukasa Doumyoji) return. Remember the time when Dao Ming Si showed up in their home and had dinner with them? Well, Shan Tsai's mother was long desiring for her desired son-in-law to appear again even if they didn't have a drink at that home.

Is it me or maybe we need to rename the song as "He Ne Dao Ming Si Zai Lai" or "When Will Dao Ming Si" return?
