[There's a story behind the story? Part 1]
I have a good friend who works for a huge talent agency in Hong Kong.
They just happen to be coming to Taiwan.
I want to collaborate with them
and use this opportunity to boost Eason into the international spotlight.
What do you think?
I don't know anything about that;
but as long as it benefits Eason, I support it.
Remember you said that.
Then when you're with Eason,
be supportive of me and put in a good word for me.
Just say that Mommy Qiong Zhi has been working this whole time
to find him many great opportunities.
But the most important part is that later in front of the outsider,
you have to speak up for me; so that everyone knows
that I, Mommy Qiong Zhi,
am Eason's official manager.
Okay.
Hold on.
You just said,
"later in front of the outsider. "
What do you mean?
Mandy.
Come. This way.
Sit. Sit.
Teacher Ming Ming, let me introduce you.
Who are you?
Today, I ordered some stuff by home delivery.
I was worried the delivery guy would recognize me,
so I disguised myself.
You're pretty impressive.
You dug out the old stuff Henry used at a Halloween party at my place.
I didn't even recognize you.
I was too ugly to recognize, huh?
Please forget that ugly image right away.
Then I have a lot of things to forget.
The way you looked crying and wailing in the dressing room...
Also yesterday when you almost destroyed my bathroom
and you looked like a wet dog...
Then you're very lucky.
In two days, you saw the Shen Pei Ni whom no one ever sees...
weak, stupid, and ugly.
You've practically seen all of me.
Then, as people in historical times would say,
if you've seen all of a woman, then you have to marry her.
No... Actually I came today...
I came back to bring you take-out.
I have to return to the set after I drop this off.
The director changed the schedule today.
I might have to film all night, so I'm going to leave.
Changing the schedule and filming all night,
is that just so you can avoid me?
It's not good for the two of us to share an apartment.
If the paparazzi catches a photo of us
that would cause more problems for you.
You're a good man.
Thanks for taking me in for the past two days.
Don't worry.
I'll leave tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
Yes.
I got hurt from a mess I made myself,
so I have to face it myself.
I can't hide from it forever, right?
Anyway, thank you.
Okay.
I accept your thanks.
In fact, I need to apologize to you
for making you stay at such a crummy place.
If I make enough money later and move to a new place
and this happens to you again...
I have such a big mouth.
How could there be another time?
I'm talking nonsense.
You want to move to a new place?
Yes.
I can't live in this tiny place forever.
Plus the landlady isn't particularly nice to me.
Do you want to switch to a new and nicer landlady?
I have a rental apartment that's empty.
I can rent it to you for cheap.
There's no need.
Though we're friends,
we should keep personal and business matters separate.
I can't take advantage of you.
You're not taking advantage of me;
you're helping me.
Since that apartment is empty anyway.
I should actually thank you for paying me rent.
All right, just say yes.
If not for you these past two days lending me a hideout place
so I could escape from all disturbances and pull myself together,
I really don't know what I would have done.
I'm sure a lot of people are willing to help you.
It's just that it all happened so suddenly
and you didn't have a chance to contact them.
Like... Zhou Bao Kang...
I didn't contact him
and he didn't contact me,
right?
Pei Ni, don't be sad.
- Maybe... - I'm not sad.
In fact, it's clearer to me now.
What's clearer?
I've finally figured out,
the second before you fall off a cliff,
the person who reaches out his hand to grasp you tightly
is the one you should cherish most.
Could you allow
the loathsome Shen Pei Ni
to reset in your heart, too?
I've never hated you...
Your nose is growing longer.
Don't lie.
After all, back then, I was the one who insisted that you be written to die.
But, I...
Okay.
A great man forgives a petty man's wrongdoings.
Reset.
Congratulations on returning to being the Shen Pei Ni that I know.
Jie.
- It's time to eat. - Okay.
Hey.
Did you stay up all night writing again without sleeping?
Didn't I tell you already that old people shouldn't pull all-nighters?
I did stay up all night writing,
but I'm super energized right now and my creativity is flowing freely.
Please stop trying to act tough, okay?
I know it's really hard to have to finish up the ending of this drama on your own,
but I beg you to watch out for your health.
You won't last long relying on your meager store of adrenaline.
Pei Ni replied to me.
- Are you for real? - Yeah.
She thanked me for the encouragement.
Also, she just posted a new entry on her blog.
The storm this time feels like an irresponsible commotion.
It has surrounded me in an earth-shattering way,
but it has also made me stronger.
With this newfound strength,
I'm not afraid of everything returning to its point of origin.
I'm certain that I have the courage to reset and start over again.
Eason.
Zhuo jie, are you looking for me?
Yes, sit.
You've worked hard filming the last few days.
Eason, have you reached a decision regarding the contract?
Zhuo jie, regarding the contract,
I thought I already rejected your offer last time?
I was on the set all night last night. I filmed all night without sleeping.
I'm a little tired.
Please don't mention the contract again.
If there's nothing else, I'll go home to rest.
Even if Qiong Zhi sells you off, you'd still have no regrets?
What are you talking about?
I have a friend from Hong Kong who came to Taiwan.
Qiong Zhi contacted her about the two of them managing you together.
My friend from Hong Kong is skeptical about Qiong Zhi's abilities,
so she called to ask me about it.
I'm guessing Qiong Zhi never imagined that this person
would turn out to be my friend?
Zhuo jie, Mommy Qiong Zhi has worked hard with me for many years.
I know what kind of person she is.
- There's no way she would... - No way?
Take a look at what this is.
This is the draft for the contract that my Hong Kong friend
faxed over for me to look at.
Look right here.
Isn't this Qiong Zhi's signature?
Look at this.
The Hong Kong agency wants a cut and Qiong Zhi also wants a cut.
In other words, you're losing a double cut.
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether or not you sign with me.
But you need to be wary of every single person around you.
Right now, everyone wants a slice of the cake
and get a share of your success.
That's great.
Do you remember Mandy from yesterday, from the advertising agency?
The one who said she wants to hire Eason for a commercial?
She called to say she wants to drop off the business plan and contract at the set.
Yes.
But I remembered that I left Eason's performance documents at home
so I have to go back to get it first.
If she arrives before I return, greet her for me.
Oh, right. Yesterday you pretended to be my assistant.
Don't forget.
That's all, okay?
Okay.
Ming Ming, you're Qiong Zhi jie's assistant, right?
- You're here? - Yes.
I have an appointment with Qiong Zhi jie here.
Where is she?
She went to pick up some documents.
She'll be here shortly.
I can see that is Eason's dressing room.
I'll go inside and wait for her.
Thank you.
The big star is here.
Hello. Hello.
I'm Mandy from Ji De Advertising Company.
I'm actually an old friend of Qiong Zhi jie's.
I don't know if you already know that we're here to offer you an ad contract?
An ad?
Isn't Ming Ming your manager's assistant?
She didn't tell you?
Did you just say she's my manager's assistant?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Have I gotten mixed up?
But she must work for your agency?
When we discussed the commercial yesterday she was present the entire time.
Also, we've decided to ask Pei Ni to be a joint spokesperson.
In fact, I don't think that the news about her being 30 is a big deal at all.
It actually works out perfectly because our target customers are mature women.
You might have to ask Mommy Qiong Zhi about this.
I can't make that decision.
Fine. Then I'll leave the business plan and contract here with you.
If Eason has any issues with the contract fees...
I have no opinion.
As long as this manager of mine approves,
I'll do as she commands.
All right, please leave the documents.
I'll look it over at my leisure.
I need to discuss it with my manager here.
Okay, take your time talking it over.
I'll be leaving.
When did you turn into my manager?
It really was just a misunderstanding.
When I was with Mommy Qiong Zhi,
I happened to run into that person
and she mistook me for Mommy Qiong Zhi's assistant.
Why didn't you deny it right then and there?
Because I thought it would be bad for Mommy Qiong Zhi.
You either are or you aren't; why would it be bad for her?
What the heck are you two up to behind my back?
Aiya.
What happened...
What happened is that Mommy Qiong Zhi asked me as a favor
to pretend to be her assistant.
I figured it was no big deal, so I agreed to it.
So she dragged you into this.
It's not as serious as you make it sound.
Since Mommy Qiong Zhi has good intentions
and I thought it would help you out, that's why...
Why would you think that pretending to be my assistant would be helpful to me?
Do you understand how to do it?
Do you even know what a manager's duties are?
I'm sorry.
Ming Ming, I know you're naive,
but why are you unable to make even the simplest judgment call?
You're already 30 years old.
Please pull yourself out of those scripts and live in the real world, would you?
San, tell Zhuo jie that I'll be back on the set tomorrow.
Don't ask me where I am.
I'll take care of myself.
That's all. Bye.
Pei Ni?
Even if Qiong Zhi sells you off, you'd still have no regrets?
Do you still not realize how much you're currently worth?
It's exactly because Qiong Zhi went through so much with you over the years,
that's why she wants to get it all back in one go.
I bumped into Pei Ni.
How could you do such a thing?
What did I do?
Before you know what's going on, don't launch accusations at me.
Pei Ni had nowhere else to go.
She had nowhere else to go?
She had nowhere else to go, so that means you treat Ming Ming so badly?
Now you're talking about treating Ming Ming badly?
You're the one who told me to use her before.
What?
Now the two of you are on the same side?
- It's because... - It's because the two of you
have joined forces to become my manager, is that it?
I don't know what you're talking about.
If I hadn't run into that good friend of yours, Mandy from the advertising company,
I'm afraid I'd still be left in the dark right now.
You ran into Mandy?
Eason, listen to me.
That was just a tactic,
because that day, Ming Ming and I...
Could you conduct yourself as my manager in an honest and proper manner,
without resorting to tactics and without dragging Ming Ming into it?!
For my life, my personal life, and my love life,
if you don't have the abilities, then stay out of it!
What do you mean by saying this to me right now?
I know you're in a bad mood,
but everything I've done, I've done for you.
That commercial, I spent so much time and energy...
The ad fees are impressive, huh?
What?
I forgot.
We haven't officially signed a contract yet.
How big of a cut do you want?
50-50 or 60-40?
How could you say such a thing?
You're not that type of person at all.
Before, as long as you had a job,
as long as you were able to perform,
as long as you were in front of your fans,
you were satisfied.
You never haggled over money with me before.
I know.
Right.
It's because Zhuo jie wants to sign you now
so you're grabbing any little excuse you can find
to lay your cards out on the table.
You've grown some wings now,
and you want to dump the people who once stuck by your side through rough times.
You need to keep track of who is dumping whom!
You're the one putting self-profit above all else, not me.
I'm putting self-profit above all else?
If I were that kind of person
I would have dumped you back then when you were no longer famous!
Why would I stick with you when you were out on the streets
and why would I help you sell stuff on the streets?!
Mind your conscience when you speak!!
What's this?
What's this?!
Did you not sell me to the Hong Kong talent agency?
It's written right here plain as day that you want a cut and they want a cut!
What the hell do you take me for?
Yes,
I did seek them out,
but that's because they're a large-scale international agency.
Even though that's what it says on the contract,
I have no intention of taking a cut.
I figured we could work it out.
It was my hope that while your tide is high,
I could boost you up to the next level.
I wanted to sign the contract right away while they were still in Taiwan
and then talk to you about it later and reach a final decision.
That was my plan.
With a draft of the contract in front of us,
you can say still say whatever you want, huh?
How could you say such a thing?
Do you know how much I've done for you throughout all these years?
This is the contract for that commercial.
Whatever lump sum you think I owe you for all these years, take the full amount!
This job, let's consider it repayment to you in full.
In the upcoming days, I won't be troubling you any longer.
[Commercial Spokesperson Contract]
Ming Ming, I know you're naive,
but why are you unable to make even the simplest judgment call?
You're already 30 years old.
Please pull yourself out of those scripts and live in the real world, would you?
[Eason]
[Call]
Hello?
Zhuo jie?
Pei Ni is coming back to film tomorrow.
Your blog message tactic really did work.
Remember to come to the set tomorrow
so you can explain to Pei Ni in person
the purpose behind your plan for the upcoming scenes.
Okay.
I got it.
Bye.
Yes,
I'm 30 years old,
but so what if I am?
So what if I'm old?
Is age a barrier to happiness?
My love for you
and my perseverance in life,
is all that worth nothing just because of my age?
Don't be like that.
Say no more.
I will show you
the courage that a 30 year old possesses
and the determination that a 30 year old possesses.
This time, I will not admit defeat.
Cut. Okay.
Please provide feedback.
How was it? How was it?
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - Please comment.
Please provide a response.
- Wait a moment, okay? - I'm sorry.
- Pei Ni. - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, everyone.
I was wrong.
I set a bad example.
I will reset my life and start over again.
I hope that everyone will give me one more chance.
In the future, I will demonstrate more professionalism
and a more truthful attitude in my acting career.
I'm sorry to bother you.
So...
Zhuo jie asked me to talk to you about the scenes that I changed.
I've been wanting to thank you in person.
Thank you for using the script to speak for me.
I've been arrogant all along,
always thinking that true ability would speak for itself.
I didn't want help from anyone and never thought about helping others.
I was immeasurably self-satisfied,
thinking that courage would carry me through.
This incident made me realize
that I actually have no friends.
Do you know?
When I read your script for this episode,
I discovered that you are very perceptive when it comes to emotions.
You were able to fully convey how I feel.
I would really like to become friends with you.
The fact that my abilities resonate with an actor
makes me very happy, too.
Do you know that we'll be making part 2?
Yes.
Will you continue to write the script?
I really hope to be able to film more dramas that you have written.
Though idol dramas inevitably revolve around romantic storylines,
I've always wanted to play a character like Rose,
a woman who reflects deeply on love and matures through love.
I understand what you mean.
If a woman doesn't mature through love then she'll be dragged down by that love.
Though love isn't everything in a woman's life,
but when love arrives...
It becomes her one and only.
You see?
Making friends isn't difficult at all.
I blame myself for always acting like a snob before.
What Eason said was completely true.
Eason?
Yes.
In fact, during the three days I was missing,
Eason took me in
and let me stay at his house.
Huh?
What's the matter?
The landlady says that the plumber is there
and wants me to go let him in.
You heard me right.
For the past couple of days, Eason took me in,
kept me company, and took care of me.
I never realized before how true that saying is,
" a friend in need is a friend indeed. "
Eason used his past difficult experience of being snubbed
to encourage me to face everything.
He told me to find the courage to reset my life.
Really?
I know what this taste is.
It's the taste of concern.
The taste of happiness...
You've written so many scripts before,
so you must know how I feel right now?
Teacher Ming Ming,
I think that I...
that I have fallen for Eason.
Did you not notice that a girl is trying hard to manage her career,
[Queen of Dramas, Shen Pei Ni, lies about her age and deceives the audience]
the serious attitude she has towards life,
and her high standards for herself?
Shao Tian said you ended up driving her away;
and after that, no one has been able to get in touch with her.
Where did she go then?
After I got her away from the studio,
I drove her to a deserted place and dropped her off.
She's not a little kid. There's no need to worry about her.
The landlady says that the plumber is there
and wants me to go let him in.
Landlady...
You're Ms. Wang, Eason's coworker?
Yes.
Thanks for unlocking the door for us that day.
Stop feigning politeness.
All of you folks from the entertainment industry are disloyal and ungrateful.
Look at this. Now that Eason is famous, he's moving out.
He should think about how well I treated him.
Eason is moving?
Yes. Look at this.
He moved out all this stuff and left this much trash,
without separating any of it.
Before leaving, he's still making me do manual labor and cleaning up his trash.
He has no conscience.
Thanks for everything you've done for me.
Ming Ming,
I'm not worth you sacrificing so much.
I'm sorry.
I have to confess to you...
The reason I got close to you
was because I wanted to hang onto the Fang Meng character.
So continue on with your life.
I will always remember the time we shared together,
the brief "Season Rose Bloomed. "
Goodbye, Eason.
Welcome, my Rose lover, Shen Pei Ni.
Hello, everyone. I'm Rose Shen Pei Ni.
Thanks for your interest.
After weathering the storm, I've returned to my post.
The current me will be even more diligent and focused on my work.
I will not disappoint the audience's deep affection for " The Season Rose Blooms. "
Now I'll turn it over to Fang Meng, my drama love interest.
Eason, it's your turn to talk to everyone.
Hello, everyone. I'm Fang Meng Eason.
I'm thrilled about your support for " The Season Rose Blooms. "
Besides being able to watch me in " The Season Rose Blooms, "
that's right, HE's new song and new album will be released very soon!
You have to sing and you have to film,
no wonder the director has named you our drama's NG king.
Oh, please. The reason I NG is
this drama's leading lady's acting is so exquisite that it stuns me into immobility.
Do you believe it?
If not, then check out the video and judge if I'm right or wrong.
Please watch the video.
What do you think?
My BTS video is pretty good, right?
Is it that touching?
Hey.
Jie, what's wrong?
You're acting funny.
Nothing.
It's just that I've finally confirmed what the ending of this drama will be.
Confirming the ending makes your eyes redden with tears?
I think the ending with be a separation.
I understand.
After all, this is the first time you've finished a project on your own.
It's nearing the end,
so it's not a surprise that you feel sad about letting it go.
But based on your current emotional state,
this drama will have a sad ending, huh?
Fang Meng and Rose won't end up together, right?
Does not ending up together make it a sad drama?
Huh?
Being together doesn't necessarily make it a happy drama.
Hotshot scriptwriter, stop keeping me in suspense.
I'm on the edge of my seat. Tell me quickly.
Now that Rose has bloomed,
there's bound to be a day she'll wilt.
How did I forget that?
When the story started,
the lead naively thought she had happiness in her grasp
and that they'd be together forever.
But the flower season always ends.
There's nothing you can do about it.
How foolish...
Jie, are you okay?
You go get back to your work.
I have to concentrate too
and take responsibility for my ending.
Okay, I won't bother you then.
I look forward to your ending.
Good luck!
Rose, I am leaving.
Just think of me as a selfish person.
I don't want the trials of life to destroy or relationship.
Having you by my side up until this point, has been a great luxury already.
I will spend my entire life remembering and I'll cherish these memories.
The person who asked to break up
isn't necessarily the person who gave up on love.
Live your life well.
Remember, I love you.
[SIM card 2 message from Ming Ming]
Ming Ming.
Why did you suddenly ask to meet up with me?
Actually, I was planning to ask to meet up with you.
Originally, I wanted to come to the beach and dip my feet.
These red shoes are the first gift you gave me.
But only later did I discover
that lovers shouldn't give each other shoes.
I'm not a superstitious person.
These shoes don't count. Truth is, I...
I read that letter.
That letter...
I wrote that letter at that time because I thought I had no opportunity left.
That's why I wrote it. That's why...
That's why you wrote your true feelings, right?
Ming Ming...
I admit that when I first approached you, my motives weren't pure.
But that was only at the beginning.
I sincerely like you now.
What do you like about me?
I like that you're lovable.
I like that you're innocent.
Innocent or childish?
- Of course it's... - Lovable or laughable?
Why are you saying that about yourself?
Because I've already decided to be honest with myself.
Eason, if I can be this honest with myself,
then why can't you?
Don't be afraid that I'll be hurt.
I believe there will be many other women who are more suitable for you
and match you better than I do, right?
I don't understand what you're saying.
I guess you're still afraid I'll be hurt.
What are you saying?
I can understand it.
You lied to me to protect Pei Ni.
The fact that you cared enough to lie to me
is already more than enough.
I can't bear to see you like this.
After parting with your girlfriend,
you had to run home as if nothing was going on and spend time with another girl.
I can't bear to see Eason like that.
So you cannot,
you absolutely cannot be tied down by a girl like me.
You haven't tied me down at all.
You don't need to feel guilty.
I'm very happy that I was able to participate in your success.
I believe
in the future, there will be many other better things waiting for you.
Actually, when I think about it,
you don't owe me anything.
At least during this time,
I experienced a really, really great relationship.
So that's enough already.
It's enough to ensure that in the upcoming days
I'll still feel happy when I think of you.
I have some lingering regret,
but I'll take that regret with me
and remain steadfast in remembering you
and I'll remember this Season Rose Bloomed.
Let's break up.
Ming Ming, don't be like this.
Didn't you once say you'd become my Fang Meng?
Fang Meng is never defeated by anything.
Let's both be brave
and say goodbye here.
- I don't want to. - Let go of me!
I won't!
I beg you to let me keep one final shred of self-respect.
Ming Ming, don't be like this. Please!
Don't make me hate myself, all right?!
Ming Ming.
It wasn't easy for me to regain the rationality of a 30 year old woman.
Don't make me turn into a laughable and childish person, okay?!
Ming Ming.
Please.
Let go of me.
Don't come looking for me again.
Seeing you again will just increase my pain.
In all this world, who else is a more perfect match than us?
I should love you and not squander an opportunity for happiness.
In the presence of love, we are both so humble and insignificant.
Empty...
In that moment, the entire world became empty.
All the sweetness, bitterness,
laughter, weeping,
all the memories that we shared...
Let's go together.
All became empty.
All that remained was a faint voice singing.
Let's go.
Don't let go of me anymore, okay?
That's right, love is blazing.
I really want to reach out and hold you.
The world is so small,
I can't bear to let go of such a warm Wang Ming Ming.
You said it yourself.
You better not regret it later.
Thinking of your coyness,
Seeing your smile,
I willingly fall head over heels for you.
No fear of being besieged by others...
Not listening to anyone's advice...
Escape into my embrace.
Ming Ming!
Stop! Stop!
Ming Ming!
Stop!
Ming Ming!
Stop!
Ming Ming!
Stop!
Ming Ming!
Stop!
Ming Ming!
I should love you. We'll become a couple that people envy.
Holding your hand, we come and go amidst a sea of people.
We'll face everything with a smile.
Hey, Jie.
I've washed all the dishes for you.
Hello, Mom?
An autographed photo of my boyfriend?
I don't have a boyfriend or anything like that.
There's no such thing.
I broke up with Eason.
I remember I said to you that I can accept you two dating
but you have to promise me that you won't hurt her!
Did you forget that?!
Feeling guilty, huh?
You think I'll let you off the hook because you didn't punch me?
It's true that I don't deserve to be let off the hook;
but who do you think you are?!
You think you have the ability to protect her?!
At least I'm better than you!!
You like her, don't you?
The pathetic part is you don't have the guts to admit it.
You don't even have what it takes to protect her!!

Why is it that in other people's dramas
the love story always lasts for all of eternity?
Hey, you're the scriptwriter,
what are you doing asking me that question?
But I never do a good job of writing the script for my love story.
I've failed again.
It doesn't matter. You still have me.
I'll lend you my little brother shoulder to lean on.
But this time is different.
I initiated the breakup this time.
What do you think?
Jie is brave and strong, huh?
But why is it
that the second the breakup becomes reality,
my courage disappears
and my strength disappears?
All that remains is pain.
A lot of pain...
It hurts a lot right here.
Feeling pain means that you once loved him a lot.
After the pain, after the tears,
you'll mature a little more.
Mature?
In fact, a breakup is the start of a new relationship.
