and also thank everyone that has come to participate
in the Red Make Up Ball.
I hope everyone has a beautiful
evening
where is Rong Jin xiu? i dont know
We've sent someone to look for her
Coming. coming, take a look
Who is that?
That is Ying Mingzhu
I don't know. It doesn't look like her
That is Ying Mingzhu
But shouldn't she be with Mr. Xiang?
I also don't know. How could it be Zuo Er Ye
Is that not Ying Mingzhu?
Doesn't look like
Ying Mingzhu is here
Then that's not Ying Mingzhu
It's not? Then who is she?
Is it that way?
I would like to thank everyone that has come to participate, the one time in the year,
Meihua's Red Make-up Ball.
The next person here to speak is
the essence of our MeiHua Company's Research department.
Miss Rong Jinxiu
Today, she is the representative of our Meihua Company
to open the dance
Good. Very good
hello everybody
this is my first time as being as CEO
to attend Mei Hua's classy party
i really hope
WIth CEO Ling and my efforts are able
to bring our Meihua Company
a better future
Of course, how unfortunately
We cannot open the dance floor
But I promise everyone, next year, next year, you definitely can
This bracelet is made out of crystals
It's called "Perfection"
This will be used as a good luck
and given to the person who will open the dance floor
Next, I would like to invite the staff, Rong Jin Xiu
Come. - Yes - I will put this on you
I hope Rong Jin Xiu will be continue to make the effort
And I hope everyone in Mei Hua
Can achieve Perfection.
I want to think our new CEO, Miss Ying Ming Zhu
For welcoming everyone and our future
Next, I want to announce
Miss Rong Jin Xiu
Will lead our first dance
Oh no... Ying Shao didn't come
How can I dance with only a person?
Still remember what I taught you
Keep focusing...
Follow my lead
Who would have know that Zuo Zhen could dance
Ah Jie, didn't you prepare this dance party
How did Rong Jin Xiu steal the stage away?
Who know that the famous Zuo Zhen
Could dance and he dance so well.
He is really making Jin Xiu honorable
The person Zuo Zhen is
Is someone who is unguessable
No one can guess what he knows
and what he doesn't know
That is right
I wonder who he is doing it for
Excuse me, excuse me
Invite me for a dance
what?are you afraid of me?
Good. Good
my pleasure
Jing Xiu. Can I ask you for a dance?
Actually, I can't really dance
Also, I'm quite tired, I want to rest
then it's ok. lets go to lutain huatai
There are lots of good food to eat
Come, I'll take you there
For this woman, you have schemed a lot
Was it worth it?
Only I know what is worth it.
Don't you think having this kind of a lady
is quite wonderful to have a happy woman?
aiyo Wang madam. Your ring is so beautiful
Did you go buy it Bao Ling Store?
Last month I went, I saw it and it was expensive
Yes. You have great taste
Your ring is nothing. Have you seen Ying Ming Zhu
That diamond accessories
I recognize it
It's the supreme collection that was auctioned off
The price equates to a bungalow
So what. That isn't really hers.
She can't be shown off
Haven't you heard, that Ying Ming Zhu
When she was on stage at Da Fu Hao,
She stripped dance on the stage
She was pretty and alluring
So what? She is still a kept woman
Who is willing to marry her.
She is just something new now
A couple years later, when he is sick of her,
she will still be thrown out
She is just a leech that clings onto men
Even if she is covered with the most expensive jewellery,
that low-class slutty bone of hers can never be covered
Of course.
If I didn't hear it personally,
I wouldn't have believe that
People can be so poisonous
Let me ask, which one of you actually know Ying Ming Zhu?
Whether Ying Ming Zhu really loves Mr. Xiang
is none of your business
Regarding to Miss Ying's marriage
That will be her own matters to decide
You should take care of your own businesses
Hey, Rong Jin Xiu, are you crazy?
If we can all choose, we would want to be rich and respected
But you guys going behind her back and talking about her
Do you think it can bring you up?
Let me tell you, everything you have said
has only brought you guys lower
What are you trying say...
If I am correct, you are a staff in Mei Hua
Let me remind you. From today onward
I am Mei Hua's new CEO
I'm letting you know that you should pack your things
and find a new job.
Don't ever try finding a dancing escort job.
Because, looking at you
All of the companies in Shanghai
Will not hire you.
Mrs. Huang, it's been a long time since we have met
I remember when I was a dancing escort
Your husband was one of my customers
He often told me when he was sweet with you
Is like chewing a pile of old and hard white paper.
Very very bland, can't wait to throw it down the trash.
Have your husband and your relationship improved lately?
Come with me.
Miss Ming Zhu
Before, those people we just talking
Please don't take their words personally
How much humiliation and degradation you can take
would mean how much praises you deserve
I've already overcame these rumors. If I wasn't able to,
I wouldn't be here today
Since you have already overcame it
Then you can just forget the past things then
Forget it?
Originally, I've already forgotten a lot of things
But because of your existance
You reminded me of all the saddness
Do you think my past,
Is extremely miserable?
I actually am starting to feel
Like maybe the life I'm living right now is fake.
Do you know? ShangHai Bund,
Almost every man wants me.
But, in fact, the look down upon me deep down inside.
Those women,
They are jealous of my jewels,
Jewelry, fame and power,
But once they turn, everyone of them say
Yin MingZhu, everything she's received
Is through using her body.
I know that these years, you've had a hard time.
A hard time?
In the past,
My mother and I were kicked out by you guys.
We escaped to ShangHai,
We were going to ask our uncle for help.
Who knew they went to Guan Dong to do business.
There were no message of them.
In order to survive,
We lived under bridges.
Became homeless and begged for money.
Fighting with other beggars.
After, to earn money for my mother's medicine.
I went to work in the laundry room.
Do you know?
That boss wanted to abuse me.
There's also something you could never think of,
You probably can't think of how my mother died.
Is it hard to listen to?
I'm sorry. I wasn't my intention.
Then what is your intention?
Then, I'll tell you another secret.
From the time my mother died,
I made a promise to myself,
I told myself, from today,
I, Yin MingZhu will never ever associate
with anyone of the Rong family.
Everything I've gained today,
Are all gained from my blood and tears. It's impossible for me to share it with you.
Your little kindness today,
would never be touching to me.
And about ZouZhen becoming your partner, I don't care.
You only have one choice. Leave here and go back to ZhenJiang.
I will give you about of money. You don't have to worry about your future life, understand?
I don't want your money.
I will leave, but not now.
I still have business I haven't finished,
I still haven't found the murderers responsible for Mom and Dad's deaths.
-You know... -Don't tell me things like that.
If you insist on not leaving,
I, Yin MingZhu, will definitely
use my own method to make you leave.
Believe me.
Zou Zhen. You actually know how to dance?
For JinXiu, that side of you came out! That's very unusual.
Actually, I already saw this coming. When you sent her to Lion Forest Hotel,
I thought it was unusual.
Since you know I treat her specially, keep your distance from her.
Make sure you separate playing a girl and being serious.
ZouZhen is treats this girl, Rong JinXiu, very special.
Why do you care about everything?
I am only being a friend to that girl, can't I do that?
Even if I can't to boss you around,
Will I even be able to right now?
During the times I was out, I heard that you were also out of ShangHai.
Where did you go?
Finishing up business with Chen JinRong.
I just wanted to let you know that you are not the only man of the Xiang family.
I can also bare a burden for Xiang family.
Give me two more days.
And I will proof that to you.
MeiHua.
Morning.
What?
LinYi, what are you doing this time?
Welcoming our princess, Rong JinXiu.
The is a royal etiquette. It shows how much we value you.
*sigh*
What's with today? When I came today, everyone looked at me strangely.
Even you two are different.
That's because you've become a celebrity in this company.
You don't know? During the ball, you were the light of it all.
The focus of the attention.
Yes, the most important is that you were standing in front of the brightest woman in ShangHai, Yin MingZhu.
And wasn't even a little defeated by her.
JinXiu, from now on, you are my idol.
I just danced a dance.
Danced a dance?
I'm afraid is not very easy.
So your partner is not actually Xiang Master.
But is HuanBu Group's famous Zou Master.
They also said that Zuo Er Ye has never danced with women before.
Jinxiu, I keep feeling you are mysterious woman
Mysterious?
That's right, I've investigated
There are quite a few men pursuing you.
Each one of them are not easy
But don't worry, I will never give up pursuing you
To prevent them from taking the lead,
Rong Jing Xiu, will you marry me
Stop messing with me.
Okay. I thought this would happen.
No worries
There's a proverb, as long as I have the skills and effort, I can grind the metal rod to a needle
A day will come, a day will come
The day, I'll make you say yes
Hurry up and go work
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team @ viki
You sit for awhile, I'll go make food
Oh ya, take care of your self.
You look at me, all clumsy, can't even make food
What are you doing? Don't worry, I can do it myself
What are you doing? You're going make dishes?
If I don't cook, you want me to witness the both of us getting food poisoning?
It's okay. I will do it. Cooking is too dangerous
No need. Go stand at one side. You are of a hindrance more than a help
Taste this
Is it bad?
I deceived you. It's delicious, very delicious
ah that's right. The dancing matter this time
Thank you
Want to thank me, then eat all these dishes on the table
Alright
All these years, I have never made food for a woman
This is the first time
You must cook often. Your cooking is so good
You want to keep eating the food I make?
I wanted to thank you all this time. You always help me, care for me
Everytime I face difficulty, feel very depressed
It's you that is by side, protecting me
I feel that
You are like a brother
She says that i'm like her brother
2nd master, this is a good thing
if it's delicious eat it more
ok
here you too
shen master, long time no see
You rascal
Your brother doesn't have the courage to come, so he sent you
I definitely want to talk to you about the land rental
but my brother didn't send me
If he didn't ask you here, then you have even no rights to talk to me
Please go back. I won't send you off
Then...
after looking at this,
I have the right to talk to you or not?
You dirty brat, you think if you bring a woman's underwear , that we'll talk?
I can not be doing the land rental business
if its meng meng's
master, master , miss is missing.
We searched the entire city and we still can't find her
So I hurried here
Auntie, don't worry. Meng meng is very safe now
You dare to touch my daughter. Do you believe I will shoot you in the head?
Of course you can
But you can be prepared not to ever see your daughter again
Ying Dong
Didn't I tell you to open the door only when you hear the code?
It's okay. I don't know anyone else in Shanghai
If it's not you looking for me, then who?
Mong Mong
You're not hurt right?
Dad..Dad...Why are you here?
What kind of place is this?
you dirty brat.
She doesn't even listen to me now
Mong Mong is an adult, if she wants to stay or leave, that's her decision
No one can change her mind
It's rare for your father to come over
Don't let him worry
Why don't you go back with him first?
Mong Mong
What do you want father to say?
There are so many con man outside
what if something happen to you. then what shall i do?
Father...I...alright alright
father doesn't blame you...doesn't blame you, it's all that liar's fault
Father, I know that I'm wrong
But it was not my intention to worry you
You haven't...you haven't.. be good
dad but i am already grown up. i came in shaghai myself for ying dong.
He is not a liar, he's the person I love most
Mong Mong, you're still very young
You don't know what is love
You know what kind of person he is?
i don't know who he is
But I know his name
He's called Ying Dong
Maybe it's not his real name
but it doesn't matter
what i love is. he as a person
He has a pair of eyes that loves to smile
He frowns when he is unhappy
He bites his lips when he is in a worry
He loves to drink when he is mad
but he never loses his temper
This is the person I love most
Is that not enough father?
Father! get up, get up
You gave brith to me and bred me
but I have done so many things that have caused you to be unhappy
i beg you please don't stop me
I genuinely like Ying Dong
I just want to love a person whole-heartedly
Regardless of rich and poor, I want to be with him
and,I want to love him as Shen Meng,
not as your daughter
I want to use my name to bear this love
Father, so I beg you
I beg you to let me love him, yes?
I know
He is not very happy when I am with him
but its ok
I will use the rest of the days to create happiness for him
I know I'm really silly.
I've brought you a lot of burden, let you worry.
But I will make effort,
I hope that there will be a time that I will let both of you happy.
ok ok my good mong mong stand up, stand up
don't cry dad will agree you.
My Mong Mong, she likes something
Father will also like it
Father
Don't cry
You brat! I really want to beat you up.
Whatever you Xiang family want, I will give. Satisfied?
Say, what will make you let go?
Mr. Shen, please calm down first.
I...I really don't know
i don't know your daughter will be like that. don't talk bullshit
i will tell you.
I won't allow you to hurt MengMeng.
I always thought
This Xiang HanChuan is at least a gentleman.
But the things you have done,
Is beyond cowardly.
I look down upon you.
I look down upon your Xiang family.
Does Xiang HanChuan know about this situation?
If Xiang HanChuan knows,
Then I'll tell you. From tonight on,
I have not even half a speck of respect for your Xiang family.
This is my own business. I will take responsibilities for my action. I won't hurt MengMeng.
I will handle this situation well.
I hope that you can act as you say.
*Contract*
Didn't think he was so fast.
You're proud?
You should be.
Our Xiang family's 2nd Master,
My most dear little brother
Seduced Shen JinRong, the precious daughter hidden in JiNan.
and the both you eloped to ShangHai
You used a father's love for a daughter, as a weakness
To threaten him, as a result, signing this
contract that looks extremely valuable to the Xiang Family
Being able to do something like this,
Shouldn't you be proud?
Brother...I...I don't know
I...I really didn't know she was like that
I don't care what kind of person she was
This is the way you protect the Xiang Family?
Our Xiang family, laid our foundation for hundreds of years already.
All those years
Were all based on our own efforts,
I know I might not be very just and honorable,
But we have never done such a cowardly and dirty thing.
Xiang Ying Dong
You have humiliated our family.
This agreement that you are so proud of,
Our Xiang family can't afford to have it.
I have let down our ancestors.
I kept giving into you and have nurtured a brother like you
This is my failure.
All these years,
I tried my best to fight with Shen JinRong
But now that you've done such a thing,
What right would I have to even fight with him?
As for this,
Our family has failed
we failed terribly
I... I thought,
I thought this was the least damaging part.
You still don't understand
The fact that you would actually use this girl to muzzle Shen JinRong,
This proofs how important this girl is in his heart.
Now that you have cheated a person's emotions,
It's not only the business relations we have
between the Xiang family and the Shen family,
but we have resulted in a blood feud between the both families
Brother

Mei Hua.
Morning Yin Director.
M&H
Ming Zhu, why are you looking for me?
This chair of yours
sitting here feels quite good
This chair is very nice. It's just, if you sit for a long time, it becomes a little tiring.
Is that so?
Then I won't sit anymore. I, as a person, am specially terrified of fatigue
Oh that's right, today I came
There is a matter I want to discuss with you
These two days, I've observed a little and found that two of the employees are not very useful.
I feel that you should fire them.
Tell me, I'll listen
One is named Zhou Qian,
The one from Warehouse department. And the other one?
The other one, Rong Jin Xiu
What's the matter?
No matter what, I am still a director,
Do I not even have the power to fire a couple of employees?
This Zhou Qian doesn't aim for improvements in work
And likes to stir up chaos, ruining the mood of the company.
I already wanted to fire her.
Since you mentioned it today, let's just do that.
However,
I'm afraid we can't do that to Rong JinXiu.
Why is that?
Basic employees like Rong JinXiu, I can randomly find another one.
I feel that you can immediately fire her.
First, Rong JinXiu is in charge of MeiHua's new drugstore project.
This event was her idea first.
Without her, no one can replace her.
Second, every company has it' own company rules
Rong Jin Xiu has done nothing wrong at Mei Hua
At the contrary, she has always worked hard
MeiHua will not fire employees like her
The third reason, I don't know if you know
Zou Zhen has been helping Rong JinXiu secretly.
According to Zou Zhen and Mr. Xiang's relationship,
If you want to do something to her, things will get very complicated.
You probably won't be able to face Mr. Xiang, right?
You're threatening me.
Of course not
But I've always been curious, why are you so against Rong JinXiu?
Is it because she stole your light during the ball?
That's not a big problem
In fact, that event was my decision.
So, I also have some of the responsibilities.
That's too bad. In your heart, I
am such a shallow person.
Forget it. I just wanted to come here today to sicuss with you.
Since you have your opinion, I will naturally listen to you.
no matter what I say, you're still the director here
It great that you can realize that.
Zhou Qian, what happened to you?
Don't be so fake. I've been fired, are you happy?
You are an old employee of MeiHua?
I believe that you are very familiar with everything going on in MeiHua.
As for me, I just came to the company.
I don't know a lot, I was thinking,
If I can have an old employee, like you, help me.
A lot of what I do will be more convenient.
Yin Director,
The matter last time, you don't blame me?
The matter last time
I believe the matter that time, was absolutely not your fault
If we have to blame someone, Rong Jin Xiu
What do you think
yes yes yes
Yin Director, no worries. You are the one who allowed me to come back to MeiHua.
From now on, you want me to do something, I'll do it
It's not anything special, I want you to investigate a bit
MeiHua Company, other than cosmetics,
Are there other events and projects its associated with?
Zhuo Zhen
You're injured
I already don't feel accustomed to other doctors
Can you help me treat my injury?
I really don't understand you as a person
I never see you smile at anyone. So angry all the time.
But I see that you are so good to people around you, to your friends and brothers.
Actually, after knowing you more, I think you are a good and dependable man.
But speaking of which, who would dare to marry a man like you?
Being so bold everyday. Who knows if your come back every time you go out?
Can't you just do something less dangerous?
You're wrong.
I will make my woman stand at the top of ShangHai.
Make everyone admire her
Make her the most fortunate person in ShangHai Bund.
I don't understand the thoughts of men like you.
But I really wish you find a good woman that suits you
