Episode 19
Don't tell me there is...
Yes, do you know where I can buy beer?
Like convenient store?
Do you know Taiwanese beer?
No, I don't drink beer.
Okay, thanks.
How much?
S$60.
Pardon?
S$60.
- S$60? - Yes, S$60.
Four for S$60? Why so expensive?
It's too expensive.
No, that's the normal price.
So, okay, I'll just take one can.
It's okay.
It costs NT$200 something. Oh my god.
Hello?
Da Ren.
Why didn't you turn on the computer?
I just settled and haven't turned it on.
Why are you still up?
We are the elderly. You don't understand.
I can't sleep.
Tell me.
Is the place you live good?
It's good.
It's just...
It seems I am lost.
You are lost now?
Then what can you do?
Ask people for directions.
Don't worry.
I can find the directions.
Dear Cheng You Qing
I have a great night view here.
Do you want to have a drink?
Therefore
during my exploration
I started my new life.
Therefore
I continue repeating the life I am used to.
Older sister You Qing. Come here...
Why?
What's wrong?
Big news.
What big news?
The general manager seems to have promoted Grace to manager.
I thought it should be you.
What?
It should be.
Hello? This is Cheng You Qing.
Called out without notice in advance?
The stock you ordered hasn't arrived?
How is it possible?
Okay , don't panic.
Text me with the product number of the stock you ordered.
I will figure it out. Okay?
Colleagues, please gather around.
I have an announcement to make.
I think you all know
I was in a bad mood a while ago.
So I ate a lot of chocolate and gummies.
So I gained two kilograms.
No, you still look slim.
Thank you.
I think you all also know
why I was in a bad mood.
It was because of Manager Feng's resignation.
But luckily, it has been solved
because from today, we have
a new Brand Manager
and she is Grace from the design department.
Grace, do you want to say something for your promotion?
Actually, I am a little bit nervous
and I am pretty excited as well.
Thank you for promoting me.
And also thanks to you guys for stepping aside from this chance.
I hope you will be happy to give me some advice in the future.
Although I have been doing shoe design for ten years
and have worked from an assistant to supervisor.
But I am new to product management.
So, I hope in the future when there is something I don't know, you...
General Manager, I am actually in a rush.
There is a sales representative calling out without notice in advance.
And, there is a lot of stock that hasn't arrived.
So...
Congratulations, Grace.
So, General Manager I have to run.
Okay, okay, okay...
Grace.
Go on.
Anyway
I hope you can totally support me.
It is said a prince called Sang Nila Utama came here to hunt.
He found a lion-like monster with a red body.
So, the prince named here by using the word lion--
Do you know the meaning of the name of Singapore?
The company wanted me to take you here as the first stop of the whole trip.
So that tourists can understand how Singapore was named.
After coming to Taichung
I feel much more relaxed.
What happened?
Is it because of Grace?
You are so well-informed.
She is no longer 17.
Of course she wouldn't know how a young lady feels.
Hi, welcome. Take your time to take a look.
It doesn't matter who else is promoted.
But why her?
- Okay, have a seat here please. - No.
I have to quit chatting with him.
I have to.
[Dear You Qing, how are you? I...]
I want the Iberian pork
the eye rib steak
and then the New Zealand lamb chop.
It's enough, isn't it?
Is it enough for both of you?
And the scallop with caviar.
Oh, okay.
What happened?
Nothing. It's just... I want to eat many things.
You just ordered a portion that we can never finish.
What do you want to let go?
It's not about letting something go, but celebration.
I decided not to go to Singapore.
What happened?
What what happened?
Then why are you wearing the wig
and deciding not to go to Singapore so abruptly?
You didn't want me to go, didn't you?
Didn't you insist on going?
It is also fine not to go.
So, what exactly happened?
Nothing.
Yes, there must be.
There absolutely is.
There is really nothing.
After the farewell party for Li Da Ren that day
you have been weird.
You are overthinking.
Why are you dodging my questions?
The thing is there is no problem. What do you want me to say?
Is it because you truly have some secrets and that's why you are pissed?
Excuse me.
I don't want to eat when you are aggressively interrogating me.
What are you doing? Cheng You Qing.
What are you doing?
I am sorry. Excuse me.
Cheng You Qing...
Come have a seat.
I'll give you a beer first.
Damn.
Don't tell me I forgot my purse in the office again.
Excuse me, stop preparing the food.
I...
You forgot your purse again?
It's okay.
Your boyfriend thought of it already.
Before he headed for Singapore, he left NT$2,000 here.
Don't worry. Just eat.
He is not my boyfriend.
He is my...
best friend.
Best friend.
I am back.
Mr. Cheng. It's time to sleep.
It's not over yet.
I want to know how ridiculous this drama can be.
Watch the rerun tomorrow.
Go to sleep.
Here, okay, okay...
Be careful.
Let me hold your hand.
Thank you.
- Be careful. - Take it slow.
- Okay, I am fine, I am fine... - You two go back to chat.
Uncle Cheng, Auntie Cheng, good night.
- Good night. - Good night.
You should have carried me.
Carry you? Carry you up?
If so, there will be four limbs in the cast.
Don't bullshit.
- You keep bullshiting. - Okay, okay, okay...
I was giving you a chance to show yourself.
Why did you come here?
Are you still pissed?
Where did you go?
You drank?
Just one beer.
She always needs to talk.
Sometimes just one beer
can make her talkative.
I am sorry.
I am too narrow-minded.
I am the one who should apologize.
I am really in a bad mood
because of my work.
Can you tell me so that I can understand?
My general manager
she promoted a colleague from the design department, who I don't get along with
to brand manager.
Is it because you refused the transfer?
Yes, I did decide to give up.
But I still feel a little bit pissed.
If you are not happy about your work
just quit.
You can't sell the shoes in that alright position for all your life anyway.
So selling shoes means an alright job?
They really don't know you.
You actually work more diligently and harder than others.
You don't really need to work that hard.
I mean
if you can't find a job you like after quitting
then you just take some rest for a while.
I'll pay you the salary.
But you have your own work philosophy.
Don't you get a sense of achievement at this job as well?
Right?
- But I-- - Always remember
you don't need to cater to others
or take everything for this job.
Because you have me.
I will always support you.
So, don't be unhappy about this. It's not worth it.
Stay strong.
Don't worry.
I swear I will be good tomorrow.
That's the you I know.
I am finally relieved.
Or, I would have kept worrying.
I thought you are unhappy because you miss Li Da Ren.
Even if I can deceive the whole world
I can never deceive myself.
I am really unhappy
because I feel bad about losing my best friend.
If you have something in mind, just say it.
Why is this answer important to you?
Because I was drunk that day
I am not sure if I misunderstood.
I don't want a misunderstanding
to make my relationship with Da Ren full of embarrassment
or...
nothing left between us but embarrassment.
If you don't want to be embarrassed
then just take it as a misunderstanding.
What do you mean?
If so, you won't feel embarrassed.
Maggie.
You must know how important Da Ren is to me as a friend.
So, I hope you don't joke
but answer me seriously.
Please tell me
why should I answer a fool seriously
who is never serious about this problem?
I don't care if you are embarrassed, worried, suffering
or thinking about how to dump your boyfriend
so that you can run to Li Da Ren now.
You deserve all of these.
You know?
I hate people like you.
You actually have something going on between you two.
And you just call each other good friends
so that you think you can do whatever you like?
You have me as the experiment
to prove how matched, how close, how special you two are.
And then if we are jealous, envious
that means we are not open-minded
and we are narrow-minded, shallow
and don't know how to respect your sublime friendship.
It's all bullshit.
So I have been waiting for this day to come.
Because I will punish you for your hypocrisy on behalf of the moon.
Bye bye. Miss Cheng.
They are good friends.
They are lovers.
They are friends who will become lovers.
This is my number in Singapore. Da Ren.
How about us?
What exactly are we?
Hello? This is Cheng You Qing. What's up?
Xio... Oh yes. I...
I scheduled a meeting with older sister Xio Hui about her being the sales...
Can you help me take care of her for a second?
Tell her I'll be right there.
Yes, yes, yes...
Where is Xio Hui? Is she still here?
She is in the meeting room.
Okay. Thanks.
Xio Hui, I am sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.
It's okay.
Your manager treated me with some cookies.
Excuse me, Manager. I...
I was stuck at the store, so...
It's okay.
Xio Hui and I are almost done.
Then...
as for the specific date for you to start working
you two keep on discussing.
I have to run.
Thank you, Manager.
The manager is pretty nice.
I am really so sorry. The whole thing is...
Don't be nervous. It's okay.
Then I'll go get you the catalog first.
Hey You Qing! It's fine.
The manager already gave it to me, and I already finished it.
Oh, okay.
Then as for the basic salary and the commission, I think--
Your manager has already come to the conclusion with me.
So generous. Nice.
I will definitely work my ass off. I am sure.
Thank you. I owe you one.
Don't say that.
By the way, check the guy's picture I sent you last time.
I think he is quite nice.
Okay. We will talk about that later. Next time...
Check it. Seriously.
I have checked those by myself.
- Okay. Bye bye. - Bye bye.
Hello? This is Cheng You Qing.
Okay, I'll be right there.
- Manager. - Have a seat.
Can I know what happened today?
I am sorry. Today...
Today, actually I just forgot I had a meeting with Xio Hui.
How about yesterday?
Yesterday?
Why did that sales representative call out without notice in advance?
Because her mom got sick.
Do you have any punishment for her behavior?
Punishment?
She...
Her mom being sick is not something she can control.
And also, being in her shoes
I don't think it is so serious that we need to punish her.
Okay, if there are two sales reps calling out without notice in advance
because their mothers are both sick all of sudden
and one is in Taichung and the other is in Chiayi, then what will you do?
Have you ever thought
it is because you didn't set up the reward and punishment system
so they do whatever they want?
Manager, I think you might not understand
that those sales reps are already at the senior level.
They have built up very strong relationships with me.
I don't think that they don't know what work ethics are.
Then can you help me understand
how did you build up the strong relationship with them?
I would check up with them at the store almost every day.
If they have any problems about their life or their work
I would give them advice and encourage them.
When it is either the huge sales or the anniversary of the department store
if they need help, I would definitely be there in person.
I would also communicate with the super for them
or argue for their rights, etc.
It sounds like
you are used to using your labor to manage the employees.
Basically, I think making the emotional attachment
is very important for the manager-employee relationship.
Are you sure making the emotional attachment
compared with a good reward and punishment system
is better management?
Yes.
Okay.
Then can you explain
why the sales in the north district decreased?
Manager, you must misunderstand it.
The sales this month are 15 percent higher than last month.
I mean comparing with the same month last year.
The first sales of the changing season
are three percent less than last year.
Didn't you notice that?
Also, in the beginning of this month
your sales representative had an argument
with the sales rep of another counter within the store.
Is it also the result of your emotional attachment making?
For the questions I just asked
I hope I can read your reflection report before I am off.
If there's nothing else I will write the report.
I will be off at six.
Li Da Ren.
Li Da Ren, it's all because of you.
Because of you, I have no one to talk to.
- Manager. - Hi.
Have you had breakfast yet?
I just had some.
Okay. Well, Manager...
There might be someone with us today.
She is familiar with this area, so she can lead the way.
Is it okay?
Of course.
With someone familiar with the area I can learn the local culture more.
Where is she?
Over there.
Chen Ping An. What are you doing?
Why are your legs open?
Get down here, hurry.
I'm wearing safety shorts.
Everyone is looking at your safety shorts.
There is no one looking.
Get down here, hurry. The manager is here.
Is he?
Let me introduce you.
She is my...
buddy.
- Nice to meet you, Manager. - Nice to meet you, too.
My name is Chen Ping An.
Lin Kai and I are the best friends.
I am Li Da Ren.
You are 'big person'? (Da Ren sounds like 'big person' in Mandarin)
Your name is 'big person,' so you are the manager.
So it seems like it is true
that your name can change your destiny.
The Ren of my name means kindness.
Oh, that Ren.
But I still think it is true
because you look like you are really kind.
Thank you for your compliment.
So where are we going today?
Let's go to Merlion Park first. Is that okay?
Merlion Park?
We have been there already.
Of course I know you brought him there.
You must have talked about boring history there.
I have other more interesting ways of seeing it.
Let's go.
Manager.
You shouldn't take pictures here.
Go over there. It is fun.
Here, about this spot. Yes.
Give me the camera.
Let me tell you this.
Now open your mouth as big as possible.
Like you are seeing the dentist.
Yes, and then your chin...
Hold on.
Okay, this is pretty close.
Ready? One, two, three.
Look.
It is like you're catching the water that the lion spits out.
It is called 'catching the fortune,' and it means you'll make a big fortune.
In the future, if you have tourist groups, tell them this and they will be very happy.
It is hot. Time to eat the popsicles.
- Thanks. - Hey...
Why are there only two? How are we going to share?
This is a tourist spot.
Don't you know it is very expensive here?
Whether you eat or not--
I don't care. I am hot. I am going to eat it.
You robbed my popsicle.
You can't get it! You can't get it!
All right, all right, all right...
I'll let you have a bite. Just a bite.
Here.
It keeps dripping. One small bite.
You can't!
Why did you have such a big bite?
Why do you... that...
That's half of it.
Spit it out! Spit it out!
Give it back to me. Or, I will have nothing!
Li Da Ren?
Huang Hai Yan.
Long time no see.
Is the picture okay?
Yes.
What is the manager doing?
Come over here.
I caught you guys being so intimate.
Are you flirting with her?
Don't misunderstand. She...
She is just...
a woman who wanted date him but he refused.
You know
all the materials for the report were in the camera.
Without Director Li finding my camera
I would have been fired by the publisher.
But you totally don't look like a muddlehead.
It is just an illusion.
I always forgot glasses, train tickets and purse.
I forgot my purse.
Excuse me, I'll pay for her.
What are you laughing about?
Nothing.
I mean... so you did bring your purse today, didn't you?
It's okay even if I didn't.
I have you guys anyway.
Didn't someone say it's on her treat?
You can't do this.
Ping An is quite cute.
It is a shame that she is not a legit buddy.
When she cries
she is like a faucet you can't turn off.
Isn't she your girlfriend?
She isn't.
Just good friends. It is what it is.
If it is not clear, it will be horrible.
What are you laughing about this time?
About...
If the relationship with the good friend is not clear
it will surely be horrible.
Wow! It's so beautiful.
Quiet.
Why are you so not feminine?
Manager, I have something to ask you.
Do you also think that I am not feminine?
No, I think...
you are pretty adorable this way.
Am I?
Then do you have a girlfriend?
Maybe...
no, so far.
Maybe no, so far?
Then let me be your girlfriend.
I am just joking.
Why so nervous?
I already have a boyfriend.
His name is...
Jerry Yan.
I am really happy to be your colleague.
So from now on
whatever comments you have for me you are welcome to talk to me.
If you are embarrassed to talk in person
you can send me an email
write me a note
or text me.
If you want to scold me
please come to me, too
as long as you don't transfer your anger to the passengers.
- Tammy. - We are officially members of Sky Team.
So from now on, miles can be accumulated
as long as they are the members' miles.
It will be more convenient to book the flight among different the airlines.
Besides, our VIPs get access to
- [The new manager is very cute!] - 420 VIP rooms around the world.
Look at you.
It seems like you are worried about your work again.
No, I am not.
What emergencies do you have?
I am still busy.
Just to ask you out to relax.
I wanted to rescue you.
Rescue.
It's enough.
Do you like it here?
Not bad.
It was opened by my friend.
It is one of the best-organized galleries in Taipei.
The art works here
are mostly created by contemporary artists.
They integrate things in our lives with impression.
If you work here, you need to travel a lot
to Europe, and Japan.
I also always have to go on business trips, anyway.
Then, we will have more time to be together in the future.
They care about how well duties are done, not how many.
The boss here requires the employees take three days off a week
to see painting exhibitions and concerts
to cultivate themselves.
So...
So, they need a new art director
to help them with management.
The work is easy, and you can travel a lot
and go to the museums a lot.
Hi, Will.
Hi, Allen.
You forget one more thing.
Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you
the office is super pretty.
Allen, this is my girlfriend Jean.
Jean.
Hi, I am Allen.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
And you're welcome to join us.
Can we talk?
You mean
you want me to quit?
It's not what I want, but what you need.
- But-- - But you are tired every day.
And you always get upset with other people. I feel bad.
I am so touched.
Then just obediently accept it.
- But... - But what?
This job sounds truly exciting.
It's just...
Is it just because I recommended you?
It's not like that. But...
In the current work environment, who doesn't rely on their network?
Relying on the network doesn't mean any loss to your pride
because what matters is your performance in this position.
I believe you will surely be excellent.
But don't you think if I quit now
it means I surrender?
Victory is not just about this moment.
I believe someday they will be very jealous of you.
Just quit.
Stop worrying.
I just want you to be well.
Older sister You Qing.
What's up?
Did you offend the 'bitch G' recently?
Who did this project?
There are problems with this data. So...
What do you mean?
Well, you will know when you check your mailbox.
Take this back and rewrite it.
Excuse me.
Why did you transfer me to the merchandise department?
We have our arrangement.
Then I would love to know the meaning of the arrangement.
We just hope you can do your job well.
Do you mean that
I can't succeed in the job as the district manager of the north district?
I think what you have to care about now
is how to do the job well in the merchandise department
and sort out the jobs ready to be taken over. Okay?
I got it.
Thank you
for making the decision for me.
By the way
I won't be defeated
because I am Sailor Moon.
Dear General Manager
For the past four years
I am confident that I have worked very diligently.
Although I didn't have weekends
and worked overtime all the time
I was never lazy about the duties of my job.
Therefore
I cannot accept my transfer without a clear reason
not to mention to obey it.
So
may the general manager accept my resignation.
Cheng You Qing.
Ultimately, all the efforts I made are just garbage.
Older sister You Qing.
Are you still working?
Yes
because I will be on vacation starting tomorrow to prepare for the wedding.
So, I was clearing up my projects.
Oh, yeah.
These are the seating charts for the wedding.
On Saturday, we will bother you with those.
Don't say that.
Are you still pissed at Grace?
Nothing to be pissed about.
Grace looks pretty intense recently.
Besides work
her son cannot adjust to the life at the elementary school, either.
And she is afraid
when her son is grown up
there are more things that cannot be hidden.
What are the things
that her son shouldn't know?
She always lies to her son
that his dad is working abroad.
And she always pretends his father is writing to her son.
She hasn't told her son
about her husband passing away.
Her husband passed away?
She is still so young. She...
How did her husband die? I never heard of it.
When he was driving
he had a stroke.
And Grace was sitting next to him
witnessing him passing away.
Grace always likes to pretend to be tough.
Actually, when I first joined the design department
I really hated her.
But later I realized
she is actually nice.
She just pretends to be tough on purpose
so as not to let herself break down.
This is the saffron seafood paella. I ordered this especially for you.
This is very delicious.
I am never tired of it.
Here, try it.
But the only downside to this dish is the high calories.
If you are not afraid of getting fat
you can have it as much as you want.
Here, try it.
Thank you, General Manager.
Actually
transferring you to the merchandising department was my idea.
Because I hope
in the shortest time
you can experience every department of our company.
In so doing, I can promote you to manager
in the shortest time.
Then... then Grace, she...
I want to transfer her to southeast Asia to expand the market.
I already planned everything well at first.
Grace is in charge of Taiwan.
And you are in charge of Southeast Asia.
After you refused me
my plan was ruined.
But luckily
Grace volunteered to exchange with you.
You and your boyfriend are so close.
If you have to leave him
you will be suffering.
As for her
she is alone and has no attachment.
She can start over anywhere with her kid.
You mean you plan not to quit?
So, I was just putting myself in my place. And everything is in vain.
It's not.
The job you recommended is really nice and great.
But I...
I am sorry.
Cheng You Qing.
Can you just listen to me once?
I want to keep on trying.
Do you know even my boss feels your toughness?
If I am not tough, it's not me.
Don't you like me this way?
If I didn't love you
I wouldn't have waited to eat dinner until now.
How about you?
Do you love me?
If I love you
I have to accept you being tough.
Then why can't you accept my expectation of you?
What is your expectation?
I expect you to be off on time
and have days off on the weekends like normal people.
At least... you could love me more than you love your job.
You and my job are totally two different things.
They cannot be compared.
Of course, they can.
If when you are busy at work
and meanwhile something happens to me suddenly
what will you choose?
Tell me.
Your silence makes me so disappointed.
No, it's just I never thought about this situation.
Or do you need to have a talk with Li Da Ren
so that you will know what to choose?
Why do you mention Li Da Ren again?
Because you...
Forget it.
It's enough for today.
If we keep on, it will just be a fight.
I am going to Malaysia tomorrow.
You can take the opportunity to think about it.
Class Leader
You really need to know the truth.
Li Da Ren.
Why did you do this to me?
How can I marry Ding Li Wei with this?
