In everyone's group of friends, there is probably that one couple
who never fight, rarely blush, and interact well.
And at times, they even tell you how to resolve problems between husband and wife.
Basically, they are an example of a beautiful marriage.
For example my friend, Sun Qing Qing and her husband Lao Meng.
They never fight. Their eyes are filled with fireworks of love.
Every morning, they take care of one another's breakfast.
Every weekend, each will feed the other cookies.
Sometimes when one of them is tired, the other will massage him/her.
This kind of couple is the example among examples.

Never Give Up, Dodo Episode 6
Dodo, this is fresh, eat more.
Eat more.
Lao Xu, here, let's drink a glass.
Cheers.
You made an appointment to go taste-testing next week at the hotel, right? I'll accompany you.
Oh, okay...huh?
No... didn't you say you were busy that day since you had to go visit Lao Meng's family?
- I'm not going. I'll accompany you. - Oh... okay.
Oh yeah, tell the hotel that they don't need to prepare a wedding cake. I'll give you a twelve-layer cake.
That cake is really expensive!
What flavor do you want?
You choose.
Tiramisu, what do you think?
Hey Lao Xu, did you prepare your wedding wine yet?
Not yet.
I just so happen to know someone! Your wine menu
I'll take care of it all.
How can we let you do that? You're too polite.
But if you're okay with it, we're also okay with it.
Small case.
Hey...did you guys fight?
- No. - No.
What do I have to argue with him about? A face full of fake smiles... I feel nauseous just looking at him.
We have guests, please mind your appearance, okay?
Your secretary's nice, go find her.
What does this have to do with my secretary?!
All I did was not buy your dad a car. I didn't even say that I wasn't going to buy it! I just said to wait a bit!
When your brother needed to borrow money, why didn't you wait a bit?
- That 1,000,000 RMB was needed urgently then! - Do you even want to live together?! If you don't, then scram!
Either way, the house is mine.
Hey, if you say it like this, then that's no fun. Then the furniture, lights,
and your clothes are all bought by me!
You want to fight with me? Didn't I buy your shirt?! Didn't I buy your shorts?!
Big deal! I'll take it off. I don't want it!
Shorts!
Don't play this, I won't fall into your trap.
Oh no!
I can't live like this anymore! Meng, the two of us need to talk!
- Fine! Who's scared of who? - In front of everyone...
Hurry and eat.
Get that, that's good. No, that one.
Don't eat this, you'll get fat.
I'm so full.
Juice.
Enough.
Do you think we will be like Qing Qing and Lao Meng in the future?
Of course not.
I thought they are the most loving couple on this world.
Right! Let me tell you, when they dated, they dated for five years.
Married till now, it's been six years. Yet they fight like this.
Let me tell you, foreigners take care of this better.
They seem to have this written contract before marriage.
So before marriage, they have their shared possessions
and personal possessions all written down clearly.
So when they divorce, they won't have arguments of splitting things up.
So you think that we should make a prenuptial agreement?
I'm just randomly saying this.
Dodo,
you being at ease is more important than anything else.
Drink juice.
- Baby, here, milk. - Thanks.
Dodo, this is the prenuptial agreement I wrote last night.
Take a look at it.
Okay.
Remember, I love you, so we will never divorce.
I also love you.
- Then okay, I'll check it over later. - I'll get going now.
Hey, then come back early.
So many pages, huh?
Dodo, go shopping with me later, okay?
What's up? Today, you're fine.
- Everything is fine. - No way, that fast?
Whenever I fight with Lao Meng,
Lao Meng's small lips when he's fighting
are so sexy.
It's so sexy that I have to just press him down on the bed.
Stop... I don't need to hear any more.
But even so, I was still upset.
So to repay me, he is letting me buy whatever I want and he's paying.
Sun Qing Qing, just appreciate it. You are a very blessed woman.
- Look at me. - What's wrong?
Tell me.
If you were presented with a prenuptial agreement after waking up in the morning,
would you be happy?
Xu Fei suggested this?
I suggested it. I was just joking around about it.
How could he be so serious?
He wrote it this thick...aiya.
The female party cannot take diet pills without permission.
The female party cannot fight the male party for the television remote.
On the weekends, do not wake the male party up early to buy groceries...
Xu Fei is such a girly man. He sure is so specific with his conditions.
It's all because of you and Lao Meng.
- What does it have to do with us? - If you guys didn't argue like that,
how could we get scared?
Maybe this is good too. At least you know what Xu Fei is thinking now.
Since he's letting you change things, then change it confidently.
Marriage... it's basically just bargaining and interacting.
- What day is this? We even have steak. - I feel happy today.
Feeling happy?
Then the marriage contract I gave you this morning, did you check it over?
Yeah.
Don't force yourself.
It's not forcing me.
I... just made some
small little changes to your suggestions.
- Little changes? - Yeah.
Then, can I see it?
Okay.
This is called "little changes"?
Since we are going to write it, then we must write it carefully and clearly.
So, I read over your suggestions carefully
and made a little bit of my requests and changes.
- Little changes... - There aren't any problems, right?
Must fulfill married couple duties at least five times a week.
- It was originally two times. - Two times are too little! You must trust your ability.
The male party is responsible for knowing the female party's interests
and satisfying her requests.
This is something that a husband should do. It's not overboard.
If the male party doesn't come home to sleep, every day, he will have to pay an empty bed fee of 300 RMB.
I already took an 80% discount on that, it's good enough.
Dodo...this is really what you want?
This isn't important.
Didn't you say that you loved me? And I love you.
Either way, we won't divorce, right?
Miss, this way.
Miss, this is the small-chested girl you wanted to find.
Who's small-chested?
Is there anyone here with a smaller chest than you?
Is there? Is there? IS THERE?
Hey, there are only us two women here at the moment.
Um...who are you? Do you have something you need to talk to me about?
Are you stupid? If she doesn't, why would she come find you?
- Excuse me, do you need anything? - Coffee.
- Okay. Then what about you? - Sandwich...shove it in your mouth.
Thank you, I just happened to be quite hungry.
I'm sorry, you are...
I'm Wu Xiu, Xu Fei's college classmate.
I remember. Did we meet at Xu Fei's classmate reunion?
Probably. I heard that Miss Qian will be marrying Xu Fei soon. Congratulations.
Thank you. Just call me Dodo.
- Excuse me... are you here waiting for someone? - I came to find you.
- Find me? - I work for a prominent law firm, where I take care of marriage cases.
- I am a lawyer. Xu Fei asked me to come. - Lawyer...
- Then where is Xu Fei? - He didn't come.
Dodo, don't worry.
This is your prenuptial agreement.
For the majority, Mr. Xu thinks there are no problems.
There are just a few small parts that I need to talk to you about.
I think you should just call me Miss Qian.
I don't like to act very close to you while bargaining.
- Okay, I don't care. - Okay.
Miss Qian, then let's continue.
Okay.
Let's talk about condition number 5 first.
Miss Qian indicated that after marriage, there must be sex at least 5 times each month.
Mr. Xu thinks that it's too little, so now it's changed to
before pregnancy, it must happen at least 10 times a month, and after pregnancy, it must happen at least 6 times.
During pregnancy, it is up to you.
- Your coffee. - Thank you.
Also, I think it's better to not have a week with 2 days rest.
What do you understand?
It's alright. Next condition.
For number 11, you suggested that if you divorce,
Mr. Xu will have to give you 5000 RMB every month for alimony
and increase that amount by 5% every year. Mr. Xu can't accept this.
Why can't he accept? He says we're not going to divorce.
So, if we write this on, so what?
Your sandwich.
Love is love; law is law.
And I want to tell you that those who love you will hurt you the most.
Here, I'll give you a sandwich to shove in your mouth.
It's alright, how about we add in another condition?
If you do divorce,
within 5 years, you cannot remarry,
or else you will have to give Mr. Xu an alimony fee that is ten times more.
What do you think?
Why should I?
Didn't you just say that you two are both very loving and won't divorce?
Then why are you scared of adding this condition?
Number 20, the husband cannot forget about the wife due to work issues. Wife and family are the most important.
I want to keep that condition.
110: The wife should know the husband's likes and work to satisfy his requests.
I am against it.
Next condition: the husband can't do any harm to the wife including emotional and physical harm.
Shouldn't that be the case?
No matter who it is or what relationship you have, the wife must act accordingly to not embarrass the husband.
I don't agree to acting fake.
Number 45, the wife must respect the husband and cannot force him to do anything against his will.
I won't.
- I hope you will be able to do so. - Of course.
55: the wife cannot have a temper tantrum and you cannot fight in front of children.
- Who wrote that? - Me.
- You? - Mhm.
- It needs to be deleted. - Rejected.
Wife cannot overreact towards the husband. You cannot hit him or yell harshly at him.
- If the wife does anything to provoke the husband, she must kneel on a washboard. - Washboard?
Husband cannot violate the prenuptial agreements; if he does, the wife will determine to what degree he is to be punished.
Wow, your lips are sexy.
Thank you.
Condition 360, the husband has to love the wife and help the wife deal with stress but is not allowed to mention his own stress.
Do you think that is reasonable?
- What do you think? - Want to consider deleting that?
No, if you erase one, I'll add in another one.
If you add in one condition, I'll add in two more.
Then I'll add in three more.
You learned math well. If the couple has any problems or disagreements, the husband has the right to make the final decision.
You can say no and you can say yes.
No, no, no, no, no.
Yes, yes, yes.
No.
Condition 150, everything has to center around the husband's work.
- Patriarchal ideas, I object. - Can't do.
When the husband is on break, the wife must cooperate completely to make sure that he is feeling happy and relaxed.
I will object once more. If you say no again I will add three more.
Save.
Then everything you are saying are Xu Fei's actual wishes?
Mr. Xu allowed me to take care of it completely.
If you don't believe it,
this is his power of attorney.
Miss, can you be a bit more quiet?
Small-chested women don't understand the pain of women with bigger chests. I have to breastfeed.
I don't believe this is Xu Fei's intention.
Now there are some companies who have their eyes on Mr. Xu's company,
and this contract will have to do with the company's shares.
- So... - But this is Xu Fei's and my prenuptial agreement.
I only care about Xu Fei's wishes.
Okay, looks like I'll have to let him talk to you himself.
Lawyer Wu... Mrs. Wu...
Wait a minute... I'm not married.
I thought of something.
It seems like you, Li Tong, and Xu Fei,
were very good friends when you were in college. Something like the solid 3, right?
For Xu Fei, you so eagerly came to find me... do you have an ulterior motive?
I'm scared you will be disappointed when I say this.
Although Xu Fei is a treasure in your eyes,
he really isn't my cup of tea.
Then you envy me.
Look at you, you're at this old age and you aren't even married.
Yet with my small chest, I'm getting married to a hottie like Xu Fei.
HA HA HA!
Do you want me to share a secret with you?
Eight words (characters).
I'm younger than you, (4 characters)
and you must love everything about a person - embrace all his flaws. (Chinese idiom that is 4 characters long)
You like Li Tong.
Hello? Qing Qing... I'M SO ANGRY.
YEAH!
I'm sleeping over at your place tonight.
Yeah, I'm not going home.
Psh, what kind of person is he?
Miss, can you be quiet?
I'm drinking milk right now. Drinking milk.
Here, coffee.
Did you contact him?
Contacted him, meeting him this afternoon.
Let me first say this, not that I don't want to accept you in my house,
but don't you think you should go home and talk this over with him in person or something like that?
This is what he said, alright.
He has to work overtime! Not only that, but he has to work all night!
I know.
He's probably thinking the same thing as us.
Lawyer Zhao, Lawyer Li, I beg for your help!
Don't worry, I defeated Wu Qiu once!
Defeated! As long as you are clear of what you want,
even if they are stars in the sky, we can pick them.
We'll pick them for you!
Really?
CHEERS! CHEERS!
Haha, I'll drink first.
Miss Qian suggests that if they divorce, no matter what, the child will be under the guardianship of Miss Qian.
This is unfair to Mr. Xu and the child.
You do know that whether it is education or living conditions,
Mr. Xu can provide better conditions for the child.
The addendum in the back says clearly that
if Miss Qian did something wrong that caused the divorce,
she is willing to give up certain parts of the shared possessions.
So, what you just said was all useless!
Talk after you brush your teeth.
If that's the case, wouldn't there be an even bigger financial gap between Mr. Xu and Miss Qian?
I can provide what my child wants.
But I do believe that my child won't want a stepmother.
This is a prenuptial agreement, not a divorce contract.
Then take a good look and see which one of your conditions doesn't point in the direction of divorce!
Don't get agitated!
- Let me take care of it. - WHY SHOULD YOU TAKE CARE OF IT?
- Shut up! - He finished brushing his teeth!
- Then I'll talk. - Talk.
Based on our investigation,
aside from our client, Mr. Xu from high school to now has had 16 girlfriends.
16! Including 2 in the United States when he went overseas to study.
The longest relationship is 1 year and 0.5 of a month.
Shortest, 3 months!
Every time, it is Mr. Xu initiating the break up!
What does this mean? It means that Mr. Xu is irresponsible!
Irresponsible!
Then Lawyer Gui, how much do you know about your client?
In middle school, in order to steal her classmate's boyfriend, Miss Qian
started a fight during a sports competition and was criticized by the whole school.
In college, to get rid of a classmate who was chasing after her, she pretended to be in love with the teacher.
In the end, she ended up fighting with the teacher and classmate.
After breaking up with ex-boyfriend, Li Dong, she constantly visited Li Dong's mother.
The most recent time was last Monday.
From what I see, Miss Qian doesn't really understand
how to take care of relationships with men.
CAN'T TAKE CARE OF RELATIONSHIPS WITH MEN!
- We cannot accept this! - We also can't accept!
- What can't you accept? - Her relationships with men!
- Your words are useless! - ENOUGH!
It's just that I think everyone has been arguing for too long and should rest.
Because I believe that everyone should let the two parties involved
calmly discuss this without outside interference.
Think about it carefully... what exactly do you guys want?
If you don't even plan to marry, what's the use of arguing for so long here?
Say something!
You say something too!
I regret it.
I shouldn't have suggested this prenuptial agreement.
I thought that it'd be a guarantee to our wedding.
But look at this... today, from meeting till now, we didn't say a single word to one another.
This fight makes me upset.
If our relationship really came to this point one day,
these papers...
will they make you have a change in heart and come back to me?
I will
let her decide all the conditions.
She is my wife.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Wu Qiu, you are still defeated by me!
You are defeated by us!
Waste of time.
Qian Dodo, you will never get married this lifetime.
No one will want you this lifetime.
Because you...are destined to be alone till death!
Did you have a nightmare?
Then did you dream of me?
