Marriage proposal
Search
Look, which one is prettier?
This?
Which guy are you going to see now?
Mr X.
You are going to see him?
We arranged to meet this weekend.
Aren't you afraid that he might be a baldie?
How can he be?
Then what if he's only 5 feet tall?
It won't happen.
Let me tell you.
According to online statistics,
70% are false identities. Did you know that?
You-
You are obviously jealous of me.
2 Ferraris, 8 maids.
Who cares if he's a baldie?
No matter if he's too fat, or too skinny, I can accept it.
I almost forgot.
Your ambition since young,
was to marry into a wealthy family, and squeeze to the top of the society.
Quick, pick one for me.
You can choose yourself, why are you making me choose for you?
Your opinion is very important to me.
Then this one.
Then I will pick the other one.
You don't even want to listen to me, why bother asking?
You are so bad with guys,
of course I will choose the one that you don't like.
Come in
Hey bro,
My shaver broke. Please help me to repair it.
A grown man doesn't even know how to do this..
In future, when you are married,
your husband's shaver breaks, what then?
Don't worry,
I'm afraid I won't be getting married in this life.
Hey, when are you going to take down these photos?
I think they are just fine.
Why take them down?
All right then,
quickly help me repair it.
Ok Thanks
Good night.
Hello, I am Xia HongGuo.
Yes, General Manager.
All right.
I'll go to your office at once.
General Manager.
Do you have something for me?
Come in.
This- Take your time to chat.
I'll go out first.
So you are Xia Hong Guo?
Yes.
Please seat.
Let me introduce myself.
I'm Fei Fan's mother.
Madam, nice to meet you.
Please sit down.
I looked for you
because of the matter relating to Fei Fan.
I thought, instead of looking at the newspaper,
I might as well come and look at the person herself.
You look rather cute.
I'm really sorry.
I didn't do it purposely.
I didn't know this will cause us to appear on the newspaper.
I'm truly sorry.
It's alright.
The incident has already passed.
China is so big, there is so many news everyday.
The public attention will shift somewhere else very soon.
As long as you leave Fei Fan,
there won't be anymore problems from now on.
Actually, you should already know that the difference
between your family background and Fei Fan's
is too wide.
Excuse me,
if our family backgrounds are too different,
then we can't be together?
Miss Xia,
pardon me for the offensive things I am going to say.
The successor of Xiang Xie Corporation
can never be together with a girl
from a common background.
Is family background so important?
Must I give up the person I love just because of this?
If a man wants to succeed in his career,
then the woman behind him,
must play an important role
as his capable assistant.
But I am Fei Fan's assistant now.
Looks like you really don't understand.
The woman Fei Fan needs,
is a strong partner.
In terms of her career, financial status and personality.
Simply put, a girl who can help
him in his business.
Even better if she's a wealthy lady from another corporation.
If not, she should be from a rich family background
like his.
Someone like Alayna.
Rest assured, Madam.
For Fei Fan, I will do my best.
There will be a day,
when I'll be a girl worthy enough for him.
If there's nothing else, I need to get back to work.
Rest assured. For Lei Zhen,
I will do my best.
There will be a day,
when I'll be the woman who can help him in everyway.
I'm not trying to humiliate you
by giving you all this money.
I hope this can be a compensation
for the relationship between Lei Zhen and you.
This is something I must do for him.
After all,
I am his fiancée in name only.
So your purpose for meeting me today, is to tell me
how you can be of help to Lei Zhen?
It doesn't matter what you say.
Even if you think badly of me, it's okay.
You have the right to do so.
Because you fell in love with Lei Zhen first.
But if you really love him,
I hope that you can help
Don't affect his future prospects and career.
The rich family really likes to
use money to solve problems that much?
This is Lei Zhen's intention or yours?
Lei Zhen says that it is inconvenient for him to do this.
It's me who did this out of my own will.
Help him pass his message.
I don't believe!
I don't believe that Lei Zhen will do this.
He knows my character
He knows that, even if we have broke up,
It is also impossible to use money to resolve it.
Lei Zhen, he indeed did not mention about money
This is out of my own intention.
Because I think that I'm really sorry to you
So I would like to compensate you a little.
I know
the one he loves is you
not me.
But
But if he were to choose you,
then he'll have to give up on this entire family.
He did this out of no choice too.
If you really understand him well,
you should then understand his feelings towards you
Stop saying it anymore.
I don't want to see you ever again.
And Lei Zhen too.
Don't tell me that this lifetime of mine
I must always battle for this family like this?
What did I say just now?
Obviously it is a one-sided love. Fei Fan has never said that he likes me.
Qin Tian is here.
Qin Tian!
Everyone is here already?
Ok, let's go up then.
Wait a moment.
What is this?
Thanks for your help.
You're one of the helpers of Greenhorn Nest.
Congratulations to you for getting the amateur nest's token
And also it's given by Shen Qiang.
Hello, who are you looking for?
I'm looking for Qin Lang
I'm sorry.
You guys can't meet GM Qin without an appointment.
Mister
Mister, I'm sorry.
You can't meet the GM without an appointment.
Qin Tian did not make an appointment with Qin Lang?
Mister, please listen to me.GM Qin is really busy.
WIthout an appointment really will not doWhat is the big fuss about?
GM QinThis mister wants to meet you
He didn't make an appointment
It's alright, you may go down now.Alright.
It's rare that you are actually willing to step foot here?
Why are you looking for me?
I need your help.
What help do you need?
I know
You normally don't do things which don't benefit you.
But this time,
You will definitely help.
Because in front of the outsiders, you'll have toMaintain that hypocritical image of yours.
So you can't reject me.
What help do you need with? I have the right to understand that first.
GM Qin
Our Xiang Yang TV would to make an interview with you
Hong Guo
Come here for awhile.
Director, what's the matter?
How long have you been in Fei Mi Na?
The time duration I not really clear about it
It's of no surprise.
Assistant editors are always in-charge of random things.
No wonder you can't remember.
Chief,
I don't feel that I'm doing random stuff.
I'm happy with my job and I've learnt many things.
Alright.
This time, I'll like you to interview someone.
Interview?
Me?
That's right.
Although you'll have to collaborate with the advertising department for this interview,
I feel that this will be a great learning opportunity for you.
I hope you can learn more from this.
Yes, thanks Chief!
I'll do my best. Thank you, thank you.
Okay. Off you go.
GM Qin, we all know that in the past few years,
Tian Le Music has grown to become a major force
in the nation's pop music industry. And also the company with the highest revenue.
The industry has given you a nickname,
"always looking for 50% more profit than others".
It can be said that you're at the peak of your career.
But what everyone is most curious about
is the rumor of your wife committing suicide a few years back.
This question doesn't seem to be within the limits of what you should be asking today.
This must be your real purpose for coming today.
Up till now, you still haven't settled Qin Lang's matter.
I'm giving you another chance now. If you still don't prove yourself,
I'm afraid I'll have to remove your desk tomorrow.
I don't need your reminder.
If I can't get an interview with him, I'll leave automatically.
GM Qin,
with your achievements and status,
you should have enough courage to face
whatever questions we have.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Afraid to face the consequences of your actions?
Shen Qiang, stop filming.
The truth is not complicated.
But it is cruel.
The dead has already passed away.
There's no need to hurt those who are still alive.
Are you afraid I will be the one who gets hurt?
If that's so,
please tell me the truth.
I'm not afraid to get hurt.
You don't understand.
I really don't understand.
For your own benefit,
you're willing to use music as a tool to earn profit.
For your own selfish desire,
you even stole the girl your brother loves.
If these are the things you are speaking about,
then I really don't understand.
I will never understand.
I was wrong.
I originally wanted to protect you.
But I've hurt you even more instead.
Fine.
I will sort things out with you today.
That time, Xiao Chen did not commit suicide.
It was an accident.
You are lying!
Do you remember the day that Xiao Chen died?
Of course I remember.
2007, June 30.
Then, do you know the hour and min that she died?
How could I remember this?
I'll tell you.
She died on that day at 3:07pm
How could you remember so clearly?
First you tell me
all that you know about that day.
Okay.
I'll tell you.
That day, at 3.30pm,
I was going to meet Xiao Chen.
I wanted to
confess my feelings to her.
I waited for her till 4pm,
when I suddenly received a message,
saying that she got into an accident.
I rushed to the hospital.
But she already passed away.
I was crazed when I asked around,
wanting to know how she died.
But no one told me anything.
At last, I found a medical examination report in her belongings.
Only then did I know that
she was pregnant.
I knew that
she committed suicide
because the father of her baby abandoned her.
The funny thing is,
I saw you running to the hospital,
clinged on to Xiao Chen and cried.
At that moment, I realized that
you were the baby's father.
You were the one who caused her death.
I admit
I was the baby's father.
The day that you brought Xiao Chen home to play,
we fell in love at first sight.
Later,
we even had a baby.
On the same day that you asked her out,
she was going to the hospital for a check-up.
She hoped that I would accompany her.
And also hoped that I would go with her to see you.
To explain everything clearly.
But
I know that you dislike me very much.
I didn't have the courage to face you.
So I refused her.
I never thought...
I never thought that Xiao Chen
would get into an accident on her way there.
"Today is such an important day,but you wouldn't come with me."
"Is it because of Qin Tian?"
"If you keep on running away like this,
will I also have to face everything alone
on the day that I put on my bridal gown?"
"You cared so much about his feelings."
"But have you cared about-"
You're lying.
You don't have prove that Xiao Chen didn't commit suicide.
You're wrong.
I have it.
Look at this.
I have an unfinished message that Xiao Chen
sent me.
Therefore, I know the exact time she died.
Take a look.
"Today is such an important day, but you wouldn't come with me."
"Is it because of Qin Tian?"
"If you keep on running away like this,"
"will I also have to face everything alone
on the day that I put on my wedding gown?"
"You cared so much about his feelings."
"But have you cared about-"
Liar.
Liar!
Qin Tian!
I know that
what Xiao Chen didn't manage to say
before she died was
"Have you cared about how I feel?".
I didn't get to reply her.
She died with regrets.
Every year, on her death anniversary day,
I would abandon my work
to take a set of photos
with her wedding gown that she liked so much.
But I can't make up for what happened
even with this.
I loved her so much.
And wanted to marry her so badly.
But-
I'm sorry.
Qin Tian!
Can you calm down?
He's lying.
Xiao Chen killed herself in despair because of him.
How can he say it's an accident?
How can you prove that what he said isn't true?
I think your brother really loved her.
Or he wouldn't take out her wedding gown to take photos every year.
He couldn't forget her even up till today. Do you know that?
He was putting on a show for all of you.
A devoted man,
who can't forget his wife even after she has been dead for so many years.
The media loved this story.
I believe he wasn't putting on a show.
I can feel his love for Xiao Chen.
Why are you always speaking up for him?
Don't tell me you fell in love with him
like Xiao Chen did?
What nonsense are you saying?
Can you be more reasonable?
I've only seen your brother a few times.
Where are you going?
I haven't finished speaking.
Come back here.
Stop playing this kind of catching game like a kindergarten kid.
Yes,
I am childish.
Unlike my brother
who is successful in his career and mature.
I don't have the time to deal with your stubbornness.
Shen Qiang,
let me ask you.
What am I really to you?
A friend.
I treat you as my friend.
Then you can treat it as I am no longer your friend.
Go!
You better stay away from me.
Don't let me see you again.
Eventually, you still displayed your outstanding abilities.
What outstanding abilities?
You've inherited Su Yan's skills.
Dig out the private affairs of celebrities.
And completely destroy the carefully maintained pride of others.
Miss Wen.
I came to thank you.
I should be the one thanking you instead.
I'm terribly sorry about what happened.
No.
You gave me the chance to
spill everything in front of Qin Tian.
I've kept this matter to myself for too long.
Goodbye.
Alayna.
This name sounds familiar.
Isn't she the advertisement client who has been
close to the Assistant Publisher recently?
Yes, yes. That's her.
Hong Guo, Chief wants you to interview your love rival.
Isn't this a bit too cruel?
You should turn it down.
See if there's any other interview for you.
No. Work is work.
I cannot mix my personal feelings with work.
Hi,
I'm from the editorial department of Femina.
I'll like to book an appointment with GM Ai for interview.
Wow! Very big.
Sir, as per reported studies,
the bigger the diamond ring, the higher the success rate of the propsal.
Is it?
Ok, ok.
Do you have one that's slightly smaller?
Ok thanks.
A little smaller?
And smaller still?
Sir, will this do?
Yes, a little smaller.
Smaller.
a little bit smaller.
A bit smaller.
Can you have a bit smaller?
A bit smaller.
Sir... A bit smaller.
This is our cheapest ones.
Please pick one.
The cheapest?
This one. This one is the cheapest.
Er no, this one is the best looking one.
This is the one.
Sir, this way please.
Sir?
This way please.
Are you satisfied with our restaurant?
Of course, of course.
It's rather big.
Yes.
How much will it cost to rent this place for an entire night?
50,000yuan (7,800USD).
Sir, be careful. This piano is very expensive.
Fifty- Fifty thousand?
I'm only renting for 2 hours and it costs 50,000?
Yes. It's still 50,000 for 2 hours.
No. How can it cost 50,000 for 2 hours also?
Because this restaurant will only operate for that 2 hours.
About this, please try to understand.
I can't not understand. Right?
Then, is there any way to make it cheaper?
Well, there is.
But regarding the time, it will have to change.
Is it ok?
Time?
Ling Jie,
congratulations, you can continue to stay here.
And I found out that you have vast potential.
I've decided to create another segment for you.
To specially interview experienced entrepreneurs.
And dig out their private affairs.
I'm not capable enough.
This new segment should be given to someone with greater potential.
I have high expectations of you.
A few more years
and you will be able to take over my position.
GM Ai, nice to meet you.
These are the main points of today's interview.
This is all you're going to ask?
I refuse this interview.
May I ask,
what's wrong with the structure of this interview?
The questions lack depth.
"Why are the designs of my jewellery mainstream?"
May I ask you, what is mainstream?
Is going with the flow of the market considered mainstream?
How laughable.
Such an unprofessional editor like you
can actually stay at Femina?
I think you are not qualified
to stay in modern fashion industry.
You think that fashion is blindly chasing what's in trend
to satisfy what the general public wants,
am I right?
Ignorant.
Let me tell you,
I am me.
No matter if it's my brand or my person,
I don't need everyone's approval.
I only want
my own personal opinion.
If you can't even understand this,
then sorry,
please don't waste my time.
Sorry
for taking up your time.
"I am me."
"No matter if it's my brand or my person,"
"I don't need everyone's approval."
"I only want
my own personal opinion."
That's right. I am myself.
Why do I need the media, Madam or anyone else
to approve of my feelings for Fei Fan?
I should stay true to myself.
If I like him, then so be it.
Why do I need other people's approval?
Xia Hong Guo.
Fighting!
Please wait a moment.
Right now I formally announce that
no matter how other people think of me,
and it doesn't matter if you like me or not,
from today onwards, I will use my own way
there will come a day
I will make you like me.
I'm finished.
Did I say too much just now?
Enter
How is the editing coming along?
Can it be aired tonight?
We can't air it anymore.
The document is gone.
What did you say?
The folder with the completed edits,
I don't know why
is gone.
What has happened?
How can the folder disappear by itself?
I deleted it.
Sorry.
I wrecked your exclusive gossip segment.
You'd better give me a good explaination.
Or else you'd have to give me...
I will leave immediately.
Ling Jie
Why did you do that?
You obviously didn't do it.
I did do it.
When I went into the editing room,
I already thought of doing it.
Perhaps my inner force is too strong, thus it disappeared.
Can you not joke about it?
Do you really not care about this job at all?
I just care about my freedom.
Then, what about me?
I don't want today's outcome to be like this.
Then what do you want?
Hey!
Don't forget
before you hit 30 years old,
you must become the country's best segment producer.
You are not like me.
Until now, I still don't know what I'm doing.
For a person like you who has a purpose,
just stay here and continue to strive.
I just realized that
the stuff that you've done these few days,
are all for my sake.
Thank you.

Hong Guo.
Hong Guo!
I'm dead.
He's going to scold me.
And warn me not to proclaim my love in the office.
Hong Guo.
Are you alright? I called you a few times already.
I didn't hear it just now.
I have something that I need your help with.
What's the matter?
It's related to the drafts conference.
People from Xiang Yang TV Station hope that
I can elaborate my understanding of Ling Lian's drafts
during the conference.
You know that I am not good at this.
Can you take some time to help me see?
Sure, sure.
No problem, no problem.
Okay.
Sha Sha,
will you marry me?
Too old-fashioned.
I need to be more lively.
Sha Sha,
marry me?
Marry me?
This won't do. Too frivolous.
I need to be more manly.
Sha Sha,
marry me.
Marry me!
She'll kill me if I do this.
What to do.
I'm about to propose to her. What should I do?
Alright.
Success!
I'm sure he prefers girls who are more innocent.
Innocent.
I better be more mature.
More mature.
Middle-aged man should like the sexy type.
Won't do, won't do.
Might as well give him something crazy.
Among Teacher Ling Lian's sketches,
I like this one the best.
Look, not only is the cutting unique,
the choice of colors is daring and original. Although this design has up to 8 colors,
they are well-blended. The sense of balance is indescribable.
It's like a toppled rainbow.
Are my random desciptions helpful to you?
Of course.
You know I have close to zero knowledge about fashion.
Asking me to give a speech seems like an exam to me.
Are you able to memorize what I said?
I recorded everything.
Furthermore, I'm a lawyer. I memorize things fast.
Then, let me continue.
Look at this one.
Love can make a woman become superwoman.
The second you truly fall in love,
your abilities will increase explosively.
No matter how difficult or tough it is,
as long as it is good for him,
you'll want to help him achieve it.
Even if it means sacrificing yourself.
Or suffering grievances.
As long as you give her a tiny bit of love,
she will willingly become a superwoman.
Actually,
the Chief likes you a lot.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll go talk to her,
and let you return.
Leaving Xiang Yang TV, I am indeed a bit upset.
But what I am more confused about is
what I am actually going after.
Life without a purpose is actually very scary.
Isn't there something that you really want?
Yes
But I don't dare to think about it.
As you know,
since small, I don't have a complete family.
But isn't there something that can compensate for it?
Probably.
It's just that I haven't found it yet.
You want a beer?
No.
I'll go get a cup of tea.
Ok.
That's about it.
You must be thirsty.
What would you like to drink?
Do you have juice?
I'll go get it.
Fei Fan, do you have a stapler?
It's in the drawer. Take it yourself.
Okay.
Is orange juice ok?
No need.
If not, something else?
I have something on, I need to leave.
I am leaving.
What's the hurry?
Hey, what are you doing?
Hey, slow!
Slowly
What is it?
I just discovered a big secret.
Let me tell you
but don't ever tell it to others
If you want to say it, done.
The person that Fei Fan likes
is Wen Xue.
Wen Xue?
