Episode 29
Jia Rui
I'm at the shopping center.
The weather is getting hot.
I'm here looking around to get your dad, you
and your brother
something suitable.
Alright, you should get back to work.
Excuse me
I really don't know what his size is
because I've never
bought clothes for my son before.
He's about 180 cm (5'10")
and his shoulders are about
this wide.
Standard size.
This size should be OK.
It should fit.
What size is this?
This is XL.
Because he's tall--
Excuse me, madam.
Your description of your son's size
is about the size my son's.
I think it should the size should be 42.
I'm really thankful to you
I wouldn't even know
which size to buy.
Don't be so polite.
Coincidentally, my son's figure
is almost the same with your description.
Only then was I able to help.
Do you want to get a cup of coffee?
That'd be great.
Come, this way.
The clothes my son worn from young
as always been prepared by me.
You know how boys are.
They don't pay any attention to this kind of things.
You are the same.
As mothers
which one of us
doesn't always worry and think about our kids?
Actually,
I've only recently met my son.
For kids his age,
what they like, and what they need,
I don't really know.
I'm a little lost
as to how I should act as a mother.
It's ok. Take your time.
Every parent
learns and does things as they go.
There isn't one person
who's can start right away.
Take me for example.
I've been a mother for more than 20 years.
I still think
there's a lot I need to learn.
And
it's not
You don't have to live together
to be able to understand each other.
Would you like to add more water?
Yes
Excuse me, miss
Please add more water
OK
Thank you
My oldest son,
isn't my biological son.
Maybe that's why.
Even though I brought him up
but between him and I,
there's always been a distance.
No matter what, we don't really get close to each other.
No matter how much I do,
there's still no reciprocation.
In this era, there's growing numbers of
these so called patchwork family.
Divorce, remarry.
Or separation due to other reasons
and reestablishing different families.
There are a lot of problem that needs resolving.
Especially the link between feelings is the hardest.
It needs a really long time make that connection.
You're right.
You're able to treat that child
as your own,
to care for and love him.
You're really great.
Not every woman is capable of that.
I believe, there'll be a day
that child will understand
the grace of upbringing compared to giving birth
is more precious.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
Miss Hao.
I've lost my composure.
It's OK.
Usually I
Wouldn't just randomly tell people these things.
But I don't know why
when I see you, I feel like
you're very familiar.
It's like, since a long time ago
we've met and knew each other.
Me too.
To have someone you can talk heart to heart with is nice.
That's right.
I just remembered.
If you don't know
what to talk about with your son,
you can start from sports.
Sports?
Boys,
they like to talk about
exercise related topics.
For example, my eldest son likes watching NBA.
Wasn't there a very popular
basketball star recently?
Yeah.
Otherwise, baseball is fine too.
For example, my youngest son
likes to watch Major League.
In short, just talk about
exercise related topics.
That way
you can develop a
closer relationship with your son.
Thank you, Mrs. Fang.
You're welcome.
My car is here.
I'll send you.
It's fine, I'll just take the taxi.
Then...
Then I'll be leaving first.
It was nice meeting you.
I hope we have another chance to
drink tea together.
Okay.
Keep in touch.
Bye Bye.
See you.
We must meet up again.
Ok
Bye bye
A good mother like her
Mi>is able to establish
a happy family.
If Hua Ren Corp.
did not have a financial crisis,
would Pei Long, Jia Hua and I
have a different life?
Unfortunately life is a one-way street.
There's no way to do things again.
This is our Ti Amo Chocolate's
newest product.
Don't underestimate the white chocolate.
Although it is a white chocolate,
but when eaten,
it won't be too sweet.
It also has a very strong milk taste.
Think about it first. Wait for me.
I'll be back to help you in a moment.
Thank you.
Miss,
taking photos alone?
That's right.
Why not have two people take pictures rather than one?
I'll take a prettier picture of you if you'd like.
Okay.
Two people taking photos, then why not have everyone join.
Leave a wonderful memory, what do you think?
Okay.
Miss.
Can you come and take photos with us?
Sure.
Next time come with this photo
and look for me.
I'll give you 15% off.
Come, get closer.
Faces closer.
One... two... three.
What are you doing??
Your body is mine.
Your heart is also mine.
Your portrait rights are of course also mine.
If you want to take pictures with him, you have to have my permission.
Understand??
Go!
Sorry.
Come again!
What are you doing?
One less seductive woman makes a difference.
Wei Li.
You already have me.
Why are you still taking pictures with other girls?
I'm begging you.
You... I...are not a couple!
What are you still being embarrassed about?
Everyone knows
and acknowledges we are a coup--
a couple.
Wei Li!
This is our newest product.
This is my phone number.
Thanks.
I will keep it safe.
Trying to mess with me again?
You think I'll be jealous?
Okay.
Let's see who's afraid of who.
I'm back.
It's so hot outside.
Why are you sweating so much?
So hardworking.
What are you doing?
Here, too hardworking.
Zi Yi!
Don't you have hands?
I have hands.
Come here
Come over here What?
What's this?
This is my sister, Hong Xi Hui's number.
When I had the time, I've thought over and considered
to maybe give you her number
if you go along with me.
09
3
35
Ok.
So tired.
You had to work so hard.
Why are you in such a pitiful state?
What about this?
It's cooler there, we'll go rest over there. Ok.
Let's go
Let's go.
Everyone's free to love.
What's up?
Why are you looking at me with that kind of expression?
Because of a pretty girl, you disobey me.
What's up with that?
Because of pretty girl?
Who?
Hong Xi En!
How is she pretty?
You.
Right now you don't think she's pretty,
then why did you listen to her
and let her wipe your sweat off for you?
Young Master.
You like Hong Xi En?
Are you two slacking off?
No.
That Chocolate says that
there's a girl he likes.
You already have
a girl you like?
Who is that?
Could it be
the girl who just gave you her number?
Not her.
Not that female customer.
It's someone else.
And she's related to Chocolate.
Phobia of choosing between love
Everytime between love
and chocolate
I have to choose one.
And every time I make the wrong choice,
I end up hurting the other party.
The most regrettable thing is
when I wanted to say sorry to her,
she's already left.
Could it be, his ex-girlfriend is back?
Are they planning to reconcile?
Who Chocolate likes
can't you guys see?
Chocolate, let me ask you.
Are you straight?
Of course.
Then do you like me?
Of course.
Ok, since it's not me,
Then everyone think about it.
In this chocolate store
aside from me, this young
and pretty lady here,
the only one left Is HER!
Chocolate, let me ask you.
Are you straight?
Of course.
Then, do you like me?
Of course not.
Okay, since it's not me, then everyone think about it.
At this chocolate shop, the only young and pretty girl
besides me is HER!
It's not me!
Don't say nonsense.
Chocolate, doesn't like me.
You got to be kidding me.
We can see that "this Chocolate has erupted".
Chocolate what's wrong?
It's ok, please, please.
Sooo painful.
Those two
have so much love.
Love, your head! I didn't do that! Stop it.
I...
Okay, okay. Chocolate is mad, look what you guys did.
Stop fooling around. If the Head Chef sees this, we are all dead.
That's right!!
Hong Xi En, you're busy right?
I'm really busy.
Actually, a while ago, we weren't speaking seriously.
I'm okay.
There‘s nothing between Chocolate and I.
Hong Xi En, what I really want to tell you is...two...
I recently figured out something.
Love
doesn't really have any benefits
because 90% of the relationships end up failing.
So it's not reliable.
That's not right. Like Wei Li and I--
Let's use you and Wei Li as an example.
You're right. Both of you, right now, are in love.
It's possible that you guys are part of the 10% of the couples that will succeed.
You guys will be happily in love, get married, and become a couple living together.
Then...
then after marriage does it mean
you two will stay together for a long time and never break up?
Then, how do you explain the high divorce rates?
Dating, marrying, and then divorcing. You go in a circle and it's still a failure. Isn't this a waste of time?
So I say, "Friendships are more important. Friendship lasts longer."
What you're saying,
makes sense.
Love is only a very emotional thing.
After the emotion fades, there's nothing left.
It's not practical and not realistic, very deceiving.
Okay. Today me as a girl can guarantee that I'll love a guy for along time. But I can't guarantee he'll do the same.
So, this not guaranteed love,
isn't worth any effort. It's just really tiring.
It's really tiring.
Being an individual is great; you're free. At least, I won't hurt myself.
At least I won't hurt my feelings, make myself feel miserable.
What she's doing?
Why is she refuting?
Wait, but I think what Hong Xi En is saying makes sense.
It's because female's have belief that the birth rate is so low.
If everyone holds the idea of being single, then humans will go extinct.
Yea, at Head Chef's age,
the way he acts, I think he will end up as a lonely, old man.
He'll be lonely forever.
Human race is the biggest problem. As long as human beings are gone, the world will survive.
Hey, that saying is also very good.
Master.
Oh! Master.
I didn't clear that table over there. I will go right now.
I'll help him wipe the table or else he can't clear the table.
So how is it? How is the idea for the confession chocolate coming along?
Hmmm... Now...
Right now, it's really confusing.
Then take out the confusing part and clear it up.
But...what if the flavor loses its identity?
It's like.. love and friendship are good flavors, but they can't coexist. It's impossible to choose, so how can I make a choice?
It's not easy. Fully understand every flavor and find the key flavor of each one.
Find every additives, it's flavor's uniqueness and how it affects the taste.
The most important thing when making a worldly chocolate
is finding a suitable way.
Master I know.
Ge Jia Yi.
You shouldn't have come find me.
I couldn't have not come. The things you said yesterday
what disease do you have?
Science and technology now is so advanced, can it not be cured?
And...
to continue to treat Jia Hua like this...
Back then, it's because I never took the responsibility of a mother,
so I didn't feel like I had the right to know him.
Now...
he's actually right next to me.
Thank you God.
This is an opportunity given to me by God.
But...this is also torture.
He stands right in front of me but I cannot let him know.
If I can cure my disease,
I would not refuse to let him know.
I don't believe that your disease can't be cured.
Tell me what disease you have and I can find the best way to cure your disease.
Thank you.
But you don't need to care about me anymore.
We are the past.
Our story...
is like an old movie.
Even if you don't like it, you can't change it.
A play is a play.
They are all memories.
I really want to know
why you wanted to leave.
Since it's all the past,
what's the point of pursuing this?
Thank you.
And your wife.
Thank you for taking care of Jia Hua so well.
We...
And...
I want to ask you to do something,
please don't find me anymore.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Please don't look for me again.
I don't want Jia Hua to know about our relationship
and also don't want to affect your family.
I just hope to use the identity as Hao Si Jia
in Ti Amo Chocolate
to spend a period of time with Jia Hua.
Don't be like this.
Try some chocolates.
I hope that your mood will improve.
Jia Yi.
Just take it...
as accepting help from an old friend.
Allow me to find you a good doctor.
I really don't need it.
I'm doing well now.
Really.
Fang Pei Long.
Take care.
What are you doing this? It's very suffocating.
Do you have something to say?
Master just told me
how to make the chocolates of different levels.
Friendship and love can coexist together.
Kinship and love are not conflicting at all.
We just need to use a method
to find a balance.
Then we will be able to make different levels
and also tastes that doesn't conflict.
What are you saying?
To put it simply,
we can, for the time being,
be friends,
family,
And can also,
I'm back.
Come, everyone.
I bought presents for everyone.
Sister Hao.
Presents?
Yes.
What presents, Sister Hao?
Everyone, look.
I went to the department store today
and chose a present for each of you.
This is for Xiao Xiao.
It's great.
Isn't it cute?
Where did Sister Hao go to buy such a large size?
4XL.
Even bigger than my curtains at home
It can't be. It's so cute.
There is even a matching set for this.
It really matches.
Isn't this cute?
Such an unique hair wear.
Xiao Xiao. Not like this.
This is for the neck.
It's very unique.
Wei Li.
This is a vest for you.
I think the vest is really suitable
for a cool personality like you.
Do you like it?
It really matches Xiao Xiao's.
It's so cool.
Thanks, Sister Hao.
I like it very much.
Really?
Then, Zi Yi.
I feel that you have the air of a prince.
So I have chosen a scarf for you.
I think that it really suits your aristocratic temperament.
Thanks, Sister Hao.
Silly
You are the silly one.
Xi En.
This whole bag is for you.
It's very unique.
Look.
A dress?
It's a dress.
Such a pretty thing,
it should be for a girl, right?
Xi En is a girl.
Right. That's why it's for her.
You guys look at this color and design.
Doesn't it really suit her?
There is also a pair of shoes in here.
I remember that you told me that
you wear size seven, right?
It's pretty. Thanks, Sister Hao.
Don't mention it.
Hong Xi En.
A dress.
Quickly give gratitude and then
show it to us after that.
Try it on?
Fine.
It's not suitable for me to wear this at work.
- It won't - Xi En.
Don't let down the good intentions of Sister Hao.
Go and change.
A girl, sometimes,
need to be more feminine.
Especially like you such an attentive
and also considerate girl.
Deep down inside you, there must be a
little princess who longs to taken care of
and then wait for her prince charming to appear.
Right.
If it doesn't fit you,
you can give it to your sister.
When she wears it,
she will look just as good as you.
But...
Don't but anymore,
How about this.
I will go with you to change.
I think Wei Li can't wait anymore.
He looks like he wants to see me in a new dress.
So, I should not disappoint Wei Li.
That's right.
He has been waiting.
Hong Xi En. Let's go.
Do I really need to change?
The shoes, too.
Put on the shoes too.
Thanks, Sister Hao.
Wait for me, darling.
Wei Li will wait for you.
Chocolate.
This is for you.
You can also try it on now.
Let me see if it's your right size, okay?
Thanks, Sister Hao.
Then... where is mine?
What?
Nothing.
Master must be envious of us.
So how?
You buttoned it wrongly.
Jia Hua.
To me,
this moment is just like a miracle.
I thought that I would never have the opportunity
to personally help you put on the clothes again.
Probably you will not pay attention to such
really normal act.
It's because since you were young, the mom that helped you to change clothes
was not me.
But I'm very happy now
and very satisfied.
And I'm really sorry towards you.
I have satisfied myself
yet I can't help you fulfill your wish.
I can only choose to run away from it.
Jia Hua.
please forgive me for not being able to acknowledge you
But I will use all of my ability
give you all the love I can give.
Just count that as making up for those you must lose.
Sorry.
Mom really loves you.
Chocolate. Do you like it?
I really like it.
Does it look good on me?
Yes.
Sister Hao really has good tastes.
Thank you, Sister Hao.
But
why did you buy clothes for us?
It's because Ti Amo Chocolate
is just like a family.
I'm just like everyone's mom.
If Sister Hao is the mother,
then, Master is
Ti Amo Chocolate's
everyone's
father.
It's really cute.
Wei Li.
Do you think that I have become prettier?
Right?
He said yes.
No. That...
didn't Xi En go to change with you?
Why isn't Xi En here yet?
Xiao Xiao.
Xi En who is next to you,
is really totally beautiful.
Do I really look good in this?
Yes.
Chocolate. What do you think?
She looks good.
Really good.
You are looking at me with a weird expression.
Ridiculous.
What I meant is
this dress really suits you.
You really look good in it.
You are a really beautiful woman.
What nonsense are you spouting?
Did Chocolate spout nonsense?
You are really very beautiful.
No.
Sister Hao really knows how to choose clothes.
Girls will dress up for the sake of the one they like.
Furthermore, a girl who is more feminine,
isn't that good?
Jia Rui.
We are going to eat soon.
Mom. I'm going out for a while.
We are going to eat soon. Where are you going?
I'm going to buy something.
Eat first. Don't wait for me.
I will be right back.
OK?
Jia Rui.
Brother.
Jia Rui. Over here.
Come here.
Brother.
It's hard for you to be here.
Why didn't you go in...
I have something to discuss with you.
Discuss?
What is it?
It can't be that
something happened to Granny and you dare not...
No.
It's...
about Xi En.
Xi En?
I...
You...
Xi En...
Brother. Tell me, quick.
I told mom that
I came out to buy something and will be back soon.
Okay.
Do you know if Xi En would like...
How do I confess? What?
Confess.
What?
Confess!
You are closer to her.
She would tell everything
to you.
So, you should know
what kind of confessions she wouldn't object to.
Brother. What you meant is
Towards Xi En, you are...
Are you giving me advice?
You know and you still ask?
Don't keep laughing at me, okay?
Help me to think of a way, quick.
Whichever method it is that won't fail.
Which method won't fail?
A meal.
A meal?
The last time I made a booking, she already climbed out through the window.
It would be strange if she doesn't jump down.
Then...
send her flowers.
Send her flowers?
If I send her flowers, she would only say...
it's a waste of money.
If not,
do you know if there is anything that
she wants now?
But of course, it's other than money.
Vacuum cleaner
She said that the one in her house is not working.
She was thinking of changing to a new one.
Vacuum cleaner confession
Stop laughing again.
What are you laughing at?
Is your teeth that white?
What are you looking at?
Brother.
Did you ever discover that lately,
you are becoming to be like Xi En?
I'm like Xi En?
Furthermore, you are beginning to be more and more like her.
Stop fooling around.
I'm being serious.
Okay. I know.
But
I have less experience.
It was always the girls who confessed to me.
The only one I did was
Are you trying to show off right now?
No.
Brother. You are the same too.
That's right.
Who told us to be brothers?
Are such heartthrobs.
What you are saying
doesn't count.
It better be.
When we were studying,
during Valentine's Day,
you brought home the most chocolates.
It was you who didn't want to accept them, okay?
Brother. I feel that regarding confession,
the method is not important.
Sincerity is then the vital part.
I believe that Xi En
doesn't really care much about the methods.
As long as you show your sincerity,
and let her feel it, that will be good enough.
Sincerity is not visible.
Brother.
This is the first time that I have seen you
facing a girl like this,
being so anxious.
Nonsense.
Who wouldn't be nervous facing the woman you like?
Quick, tell me a way.
Okay.
I'm thinking now.
Hurry up.
Okay.
Having a meal and sending flowers won't do?
Other than money,
Vacuum cleaner will not do as well.
What special day is this?
It can't be the day that he and his girl friend broke up?
Hong Xi Hui!
Chasing until the end and dig up people's privacy and scar
You are really happy about it, right?
Subtitles brought to you by the Ti Amo Chocolate Team @ Viki
Chocolate. Let me ask you.
Are you straight?
Of course.
Then... do you like me?
Of course, not.
Okay. Since it's not me.
Everyone, think about it then.
In this chocolate shop,
other than a young woman like me,
the only other person is her!
It's not me.
Don't spout nonsense.
The one whom Chocolate likes is not me.
Come on.
Previously when Chocolate exploded,
We could all see it.
Are you alright?!Are you burning?
It's okay. Clean your face first.
Really hot!
Looks like these two
are in love.
In love, your head!
When did I do that?
Stop fooling around.
Xi En, I...
Okay.
Chocolate is angry now.
Look at you both.
Stop fooling around.
If Master were to see us,
we will be doomed.
Hong Xi En!
Are you busy now?
I'm really busy.
Frankly, we didn't had any other intentions just now.
I'm fine.
Besides, Chocolate and I
don't have anything going on between us.
Hong Xi En.
What I just wanted to tell you was...
Recently, I have just thought through something.
Being in love is actually
tiring people and also losing money
it's not beneficial to anyone at all.
Because there's 90% of Love
in the end, it still fail.
So, we can't rely on it.
It won't.
Just like me and Wei Li, actually I
Just for example, you and Wei Li
The both of you are indeed in love right now.
It's probably the 10% that the both of you
that successful pair
You will be happy and in love.
When you are married,
and are living together as husband and wife.
What happens then?
After your marriage,
would that means
you would grow old together?
And never separate?
Then the super high divorce rates
How could you explain that?
Being in love, marriage
and then, divorce.
After going a full circle, it's still a failure.
Isn't that a waste of time?
So, I say,
friendship is still more important.
Friendship will last longer.
By saying this,
it seems logical.
Being in love is just a kind of feeling.
Once the love is gone,
there is nothing left.
It's not practical at all.
There is no guarantee at all.
Super imaginary
Alright, just take the me for today
A girl.
I can guarantee that I love the other party
for a long, long time.
But I can't guarantee that
he would feel this way about me too.
So, talking about this kind of
love that cannot be guaranteed,
there is no necessity to waste your time.
It's really tiring, right?
It's very tiring.
Being single is better.
Being single is so carefree
At least I won't hurt myself.
At least I won't let myself feel heartache.
I won't make myself sad.
Right?
What is Xiao Xiao doing?
Why isn't she objecting?
No, but I feel that what Hong Xi En said sounds logical.
It's because women have this view that
That's why the fertility rates nowadays are so low.
Everyone is holding the idea of being single.
Humans will probably extinct one day.
That's right.
Or else by the time we reached the age like Master,
from his situation,
definitely will be an old bachelor.
Alone for the rest of his life.
Humans are the biggest source of chaos
As long as the human go extinct,
we can save the world.
This saying is not bad.
Master.
The cutleries used by the customer just now I still haven't take it back yet.
I will clear the table.
I will help him to wipe the table.
So how?
The chocolate to express love
how is it going?
At the present,
Right now it's kind of confusing.
Then just take out the confusing part
and put it in order.
But what if the taste right now
caused me to lose the current if I care about the other, what should I do?
It's just...
love and friendship
They are both good tastes.
But they just can't coexist together.
Can't manage and make decision together.
By that time, how should I make the decision?
Isn't that simple?
Take every taste and clarify one by one
Find out the level between every taste
Find out every additive
and its taste specialty.
And then it's order of affecting the taste.
If you want to make chocolates of many levels
Most importantly
is to find out the method to mix them together.
Master, I know already.
Ge Jia Yi!
You shouldn't come here to look for me.
I can't not come.
What you told me yesterday,
what illness did you get?
The medical technology nowadays is really advanced Don't tell me that there's no solution to it?
Also,
If Jia Hua and you were to go on like this,
In the past, it is because I have not do my part as his Mother.
I think that I do not have the right to acknowledge him.
Now that he's by my side,
I thank heaven.
God is giving me this chance
But this is also a kind of torture.
When he was standing in front of me,
yet I can't acknowledge him.
If my illness can be cured,
I will absolutely not don't acknowledge him.
I don't believe that your illness can't be cured.
Tell me what your illness is.
I will use every method to cure your illness.
Thank you.
But you don't need to be concerned about me again.
We are already in the past.
Our story
is just like an out-of-popularity old movie
Even if we don't like it,
we also can't change it.
The end is the end.
Those are just memories.
I really want to know
why did you leave at that time.
Since it's already in the past,
what's the purpose of even looking into it?
Thank you.
And your wife, too.
