That night a year ago, why did you just run away?
It's really taken me a lot of courage to stand in front of you again.
But you only had the accident because you wanted to go back to see him.
If sympathy is all that's left in a relationship
then it's worse than being unloved.
The fact that life can be so unpredictable
has taught me to treasure things that are most important to me.
You're so worried about A-Da and Xiao Ling
but there's nothing I can do to share your burden.
Since you two were busy chatting with each other
I thought I'd better go.
You're starting to get jealous over me.
From now on, we'll just get on with our own lives.
Are you treating me as a book holder?
It's just a business trip.
Just go, don't worry about me.
Why don't I look after Polo while you're away?
Okay, you might as well just move in for the week.
How could she lie on my bed while I'm not home?
If you can't fall asleep
you can go and sit by the sea.
Both Polo and I would love to sit by the sea as well.
- Hello? - Still lying on my bed?
No, I'm not.
Listen, I bumped into Zhi Yu at the hotel that I'm staying at today.
Put your hand on your head.
I'll be home soon, don't worry.
Please look after Guan Xiao Tong for me.
I think I'm beginning to miss you.

[Murphy's Law Of Love]
Episode 11
We have to get our members to sign here as confirmation.
Boss is very particular about that right now.
That's weird.
I thought it would be him.
Guan Xiao Tong.
Come here.
- Come and look at this. - I want to see, too.
Take care of this for me.
Is Ji Jia Wei also staying at this hotel?
Yeah.
How dare him.
How can he stay at the same hotel as his ex-girlfriend?
Don't you think that's a bit ridiculous?
He already told me yesterday.
Don't worry, trust is the foundation of a good relationship.
No wonder she's Dr. Love.
She doesn't feel threatened by his ex-girlfriend at all.
- Not bad. - Guan Xiao Tong.
If your enemy starts using dirty tricks
you're not just going to stand there and watch, are you?
'Seeing an old friend in an old place.'
'The person whom I miss most is right beside me.'
Guan Xiao Tong, she's obviously trying to aggravate you.
- Do you think they're staying in... - That's enough.
The number you dialed is being transferred to a...
Polo.
It's just an SMS ad.
I thought it was Ji Jia Wei.
That's weird, I haven't heard from him all day.
Forget it.
If he's really busy with work
I shouldn't call and disturb him.
Trust, trust, trust.
Let's cut these up.
Be careful, don't cut yourself.
Okay.
You know what?
Guan Xiao Tong is such a terrible cook.
Luckily you're here, or else I'll have to have instant noodle everyday.
That's not true.
Although I can't cook very well
I can still buy takeout.
Also, I've never let you have instant noodle before.
What is she talking about?
It feels great to hold you like this.
You've got the perfect height.
Let me tell you something.
This is what happened last time.
I ended up having a sore back.
That's not true.
You were the one who put your head on my shoulder.
Also, I was already standing on a step.
Poor baby...
Let's keep cooking.
Oh my god, what is happening to me?
I shouldn't keep scaring myself.
Hello?
I'm sorry, Xiao Tong.
The reason this is so sudden is because I really need your advice.
Don't say that.
It's great to be able to catch up with everyone again.
I miss you all very much.
Since you've asked me to come so urgently
this must be quite a difficult case, right?
It's post-traumatic stress syndrome.
This patient has been having serious sleeping and anxiety disorders.
Look.
She hasn't had much improvement despite doing a series of treatment.
So I would like her to try the treatment method that you've done before.
I can lend you her treatment record
so you can read it at home.
But as for her personal information, I'm afraid I can't disclose it.
That's okay, your detailed notes should be enough.
Why don't you come back and work here?
We're really short of psychologists.
Since you had such good grades, don't you think it's such a shame?
That's okay, I really like my job right now.
All right then.
Oh yeah, there's another reason why I asked you to come here.
Somebody wants to see you.
Who?
Hi.
I never thought you would leave your family's beauty clinic
to come work at a hospital.
I also never thought you would give up being a doctor
so that you can go work in a matchmaking agency.
When I was working at the hospital
I had to attend to numerous cases everyday
so I couldn't identify and solve the root of my patients' problems.
So as time passed
I lost my original purpose for becoming a doctor.
Coffee without sugar.
It's always been your favorite.
Actually, I never really liked drinking coffee before.
I only forced myself to get used to what you liked
try your favorite coffee
and get used to your habits.
Then why didn't you tell me before?
So we can be honest with each other now that we're friends, right?
So... are you married?
No.
Actually, I've spent the past year overseas.
Since I suddenly had a lot more time I've been doing a lot of thinking.
I've decided to take charge of my own life and relationships
instead of listening to my parents.
As for what happened before
I'm very sorry about how I treated you and breaking up with you.
That was really immature of me.
Did you know that in psychology, we have something called Hedgehog's Law?
During a cold winter two hedgehogs cuddled up against one another to keep warm.
However, since they kept poking each other with their spikes
it's only after they got badly hurt
did they discover the right distance to keep warm without getting hurt.
I think the relationship we're in now
is probably the most suitable distance for us.
It's so relaxing and comfortable.
Whatever it is that changed you
I think I'm actually a bit jealous.
Because the person sitting in front of me right now
is totally different from before.
Actually, if you hadn't told me about it
I probably wouldn't have found out for the rest of my life.
I think that's how you've always been.
When it comes to things or people that you care about
you'd always put them before yourself.
So if we had just kept quiet about it
even if we didn't fight at all
I think we still had quite a lot of problems, right?
Come to think of it now
I guess the fact that I revolved my life around yours
was probably one of the reasons for our breakup.
Excuse me.
Hello?
I'll be right there.
Okay.
You better go now, don't keep your patient waiting.
Okay.
Kevin.
Thank you so much for today.
Thanks for point out the problems that I've never thought about.
That's okay.
I'm really glad that we've finally had this talk.
- I better go now. - Bye.
- Then I'll leave it with you. - Thank you, Director Gao.
We'll start working on it soon.
We hope these meaningful divorce stories will help promote your exhibition.
Okay, thank you.
Goodbye.
That's great, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
I told you.
That's because Jia Wei is in charge of this project.
Let's go back to the hotel and have a spa treatment.
You're so efficient, aren't you?
What spa treatment?
You can come straight to my room
and amend the proposal.
Why?
According to our schedule
we'll amend it tomorrow before our meeting two days later.
I've changed our schedule.
If we do it tomorrow morning, then we can have the meeting in the afternoon.
- Why? - What do you mean?
Why should we drag on like this if we can finish it sooner?
- But you said... - I said...
I know what I said before.
We should be flexible and adaptable to different situations
when it comes to doing business.
That is how we stay competitive, right?
The problem is there aren't any problems right now.
Everything is going just fine for us.
As for competitors, we don't have any competitors whatsoever.
Nonsense.
We shouldn't be arrogant.
The two golden rules for every business is to be efficient and competitive.
The reason I'm doing this is for the sake of your annual bonuses.
Yeah, right.
It's just because you miss Guan Xiao Tong.
That's why you want to go back and see her, right?
Things must be going too well for you two at work.
You've become arrogant lately.
That's not so good, is it?
Listen, you should be a role model for the other staff.
But...
I've already called for a cab.
It's waiting outside, let's go.
But...
Forget about the spa treatment.
The cab's already here.
No.
Just pack up.
- You do it. - I'm going.
Hi, Kevin.
What happened?
Doctor Li said you didn't go for your consultation today.
I had a full schedule today so I forgot.
You forgot?
I thought I've asked Amy to remind you.
She probably forgot as well.
Don't worry about it.
I'll make sure that I remind you myself next time.
If you want to get out of it again like you did this time
you better give me a better reason, okay?
All right, bye.
Is it Dr. Du?
Zhi Yu, I already reminded you this morning.
We're starting to get busy, so our schedule is quite full.
What's so bad about that?
I'll just go for my consultations when I have time.
Also, based on this analysis
15,827 people have said that
women are more likely to remain upset.
So even if they remarry
they still have a high possibility of having heart disease.
The research team that...
You got it wrong again.
Do it again.
Please bring us another espresso.
Don't forget to give us sugar and milk.
Thank you.
Jia Wei.
Careful.
Thank you.
Do you know what I have in my hand?
Come on, here's your dinner.
Enjoy your dinner.
Should I call and tell him that I saw Kevin today?
No, he's such a jealous guy.
If I tell him now
he might rush home straight away.
That would be so...
Polo, do you agree with me?
All right, then let's not tell him just yet.
Hey, Shao Qiang.
I was so busy that I forgot to call her.
If I call her now
I'll probably wake her up.
Forget it.
Polo and I would love to sit by the sea, too.
I heard that
someone wants to sit by the sea...
Morning.
You're up early.
I've got a morning shoot.
So I'll have to get changed soon.
Have you been staying up for the past few nights?
I'm fine.
I've got to go now.
Finally, it's all confirmed.
Jia Wei, you want to see a doctor?
That's okay, it's just a cold.
What are you doing?
You're burning, you should see a doctor before it gets serious.
What?
My body is just heating up to kill off the flu virus.
Why would I need to see a doctor?
No.
Look, luckily, my wife prepared this for me.
You should at least put on a cold patch.
- Otherwise it'll get worse. - No.
- Just put it on... - What are you doing?
Hello?
Shao Qiang, is Jia Wei sick?
How did you know?
Whenever he had a fever before
he wouldn't see a doctor or take any medicine.
He would only drink the hot cola with ginger and lemon drink I make.
Do you want to talk to him yourself?
No, don't tell him that I called.
Just keep an eye on him.
Stop it, these patches are for babies.
No, they're not.
Look at this.
Just like those cartoon ninjas.
In that case, you can leave it on.
- See, you're coughing... - No, Xi Men.
Hey...
Quickly go and pack up.
We're going back to Taipei.
What?
- Taipei? - What's going on?
Xiao Tong...
Didn't you hear me call you?
You...
Come with me.
I already reminded you
that we'll be going on a radio show next week.
Have you finished the draft yet?
Not yet, but it's almost done.
What is the matter with you?
It's the first time for me to feel that you're not focusing on your work.
You don't have to tell me about your personal problems.
But please don't let anything affect your professional attitude at work.
Make sure you finish whatever it is that needs to be done.
Understand?
Okay.
Did she yell at you?
Since Boss hasn't been in love for a long time
she doesn't realize it's normal for people
to put love as their first priority.
Only those who're not in love would put work as their first priority.
It's all Ji Jia Wei's fault.
Since he used to hang around me all the time before
now that he's not here
I'm suddenly finding it really hard to get used to
and feeling so uneasy.
- It's raining, run! - Why is it suddenly pouring?
They're back.
Where is Ji Jia Wei?
Why didn't he come back with them?
Did he tell you when he's coming back?
That's weird, why am I feeling so hot?
I hope my fever isn't getting worse.
Why am I still feeling so dizzy?
It's still early.
I can take a nap before I pick her up.
What is going on?
Why am I still getting his voicemail when he's already back?
I wonder where he's gone.
Polo, you tell me.
Can Ji Jia Wei really be so busy that he's totally forgotten about us?
'Guts, Giver, Gentle, Guarantee.'
'I can do all that as long as I want to do it.'
Yeah, right.
Come on.
Polo.
Come on.
Wait.
Okay.
He's back.
Why didn't he tell me?
How dare you.
I can forgive you for not telling me you came back early.
But how can you go straight to bed like this?
Ji Jia Wei.
Wake up, hey.
How dare you.
I can forgive you for not telling me you came back early.
But how can you go straight to bed like this?
Ji Jia Wei.
Wake up, hey.
He's burning.
Hey, Ji Jia Wei.
Wake up, I'll take you to the doctor.
Hey...
Ji Jia Wei...
He's burning, what should I do?
Guan Xiao Tong, you're a doctor.
A patient with a fever can't be that hard to handle.
The first step is put it under cold running water...
No, he's got a fever.
I must ease his fever first.
Rest, okay?
I'll be right back.
39 degrees Celsius?
I'll switch your phone to vibrate
so you can rest soundly.
It's out of battery.
Don't come in.
Hi, Xin Xin.
Guan Xiao Tong, is Ji Jia Wei sick?
How did you know?
Shao Qiang told me, don't worry about that for now.
He said Ji Jia Wei never sees a doctor or takes medicine.
He told you to look up hot cola with ginger and lemon online
and make it for him because he'll drink it.
Okay, I'll do that.
Hot cola with ginger and lemon?
Come on.
How long have I been sleeping?
I wonder if Guan Xiao Tong got off work yet.
Nine-thirty?
How could I sleep for that long?
Fried eggs turned into scrambled eggs?
That's funny.
Hang on.
Has she left already?
Why didn't she wait until I wake up to make sure that I'm okay?
How could she just leave me and go to work?
She could have left a note or something.
Polo.
Where did you go?
You're awake.
Do you feel better now?
Let's have breakfast.
Off you go.
I tried to cook you some congee.
Although it got a little burnt
I definitely won't let you have instant noodle.
I also bought some breakfast, and...
The soy milk's gone cold.
I better warm it up for you.
Finally...
I'm home.
Welcome home.
Hey, while I was away
what have you been doing?
I went to work, played with Polo
and I...
I...
What else?
I waited for you to call
and felt that time passed by really slowly.
It's all Xi Men and Shao Qiang's fault.
If they hadn't been so lazy
I could have come back earlier.
Really?
Since I missed Polo
I did my best to finish seven days' work in just four days.
I know you must have been very busy
because you didn't even have time to go and see a doctor.
Poor you.
But...
it's all worth it.
When I got up and saw a pot cooking on my stove
a table full of hot breakfast
and someone else in the house
it feels...
it feels really comforting.
So have you always been by yourself
when you were sick before?
Since my dad is always busy at work
I didn't want to make him worried.
As for my mom
she...
How come your face is so red?
Have you got a fever again?
I thought your fever already eased when I took your temperature this morning.
Really? How's that possible?
I'm burning, I think I've got the fever again.
That's why
you'll have to take care of me
or else I might pass out.
I know, that's why I took the morning off to look after you.
All right, let's eat.
You can rest after you finish breakfast.
I'll have to go back to work in the afternoon.
Ji Jia Wei.
Well..
I saw Kevin a few days ago.
Why didn't you tell me earlier?
I really...
I'll tell them that I won't be going on any trips for over three days.
They can go themselves.
Looks like I really can't go anywhere.
I knew this is how you would react.
It's okay.
What do you mean it's okay?
How can it be okay?
You must report your schedule to me from now on, okay?
That's not a problem.
Okay, from now on
you must let me take you to the doctor when you get sick.
I don't care.
Deal.
Hi.
Drink this.
Tell me.
What do you think about my bed?
Did you...
reach under my blanket last night?
No.
Since you kept sweating
I just wanted to...
I'll go and prepare lunch for you.
Make sure you eat it, okay?
I'll go and prepare lunch for you.
Make sure you eat it, okay?
Don't worry about lunch.
You've done more than enough.
I heard that
someone also wants to sit by the sea.
What is this?
Sitting here in front of the sea
I now feel very calm
and relaxed.
Looking at the sea has healed all my wounds.
It's just like having you by my side.
Come here.
Guan Xiao Tong.
We're now... at the beach.
It's something that I've taught Polo.
While you were away
I found out that he really likes the sound of this bracelet.
- Dad, I'm home. - Xiao Tong, why did you come back?
I thought you're staying at your friend's place for a week.
He came back early.
Xiao Tong.
You know that both Mom and I are very understanding, right?
So it's totally your own choice when it comes to choosing your friends.
Since you're a love doctor yourself
I guess... well...
I mean...
Dad, what are you trying to say?
I...
I just want to ask you something.
I'm just trying to find out
what kind of a friend you were referring to.
He's a friend that I'd like to introduce you to.
She must have left already.
Drink this when you wake up.
It took me a long time to prepare it, so make sure you finish it.
This...
How did she know about this drink?
[He Zhi Yu]
Hello?
Jia Wei.
What do you want?
Hello?
Jia Wei.
What do you want?
When I saw you last time...
you looked a bit sick.
So I was wondering if you're better now.
That's good.
I was worried that if you won't go see a doctor
you might get even worse.
I don't care how you managed
to tell Xiao Tong about the hot cola drink.
But I hope it's not going to happen again.
That's already in the past.
It's not fair for Guan Xiao Tong.
- I was just worried about you... - Please.
Don't try to say things to make me feel bad.
I wouldn't mind
leaving you out of my life
from now on.
- Ji Jia Wei. - Listen.
I don't want to hurt another person with our past.
That's my baseline.
If that's all you wanted to say
I've got to go now.
Polo.
Since I don't want Guan Xiao Tong to get hurt...
I have no choice but to be a selfish person.
He Zhi Yu.
So is this what you want?
You want to know what I want?
Whatever it is that I want
is not up to me to decide anymore.
When you wanted to give up a year ago
who finally had the courage
because she didn't want to submit to her destiny?
That was a year ago.
Apart from my career
nothing else is within my own control now.
I thought I would take it really easy.
Even if Jia Wei has changed
I still have my job and career.
But...
when I saw the strangeness...
and neglect in his eyes
as he looked at me
I finally realized
that losing him
is like losing all the effort I put into my recovery for the past year.
You're not the only person who had to struggle through that year.
So did I and everyone else around you.
We all stayed with you, watched you
and worked with you to strive towards your goal.
So after all that we've done for you
what did we get in the end?
Look at you.
You're no longer going to your consultations
and you put yourself down in front of him.
No, I'm not.
I've already made it clear to him
that I'll no longer interfere with his life.
Then what were you doing just then?
You obviously can't forget about him.
Hi, Xiao Tong, it's Kevin.
What's up?
I just want to ask you
about the patient that Yao Yao's asked you to help.
Have you got any ideas?
I'm looking through her information right now.
I think the biggest problem with this patient
is that she's refusing to reflect on her past accident
and wouldn't tell anyone about it.
Yeah, that's the part that Yao Yao's been having trouble with.
An idea just came to my mind.
You may want to give it a try.
What idea?
The first step of psychological rehabilitation
is to help the patient tell us the full story of her accident.
So perhaps you can ask her to write a letter to herself.
Write a letter to herself?
If she's willing to talk about her accident
then she'll be able to confront her past pain
and hopefully try to recover and put it behind her.
It certainly sounds like a good idea.
How come I feel as if you're especially concerned about this patient?
No, I guess it's because she's more like a friend to me.
After being her doctor for the past year, it's also changed me a lot.
When I saw her determination during her physiotherapy
I realized that I didn't really put a lot of effort into anything before.
So no matter how difficult it is
I really hope I can help her recover.
Okay, give me a few more days.
After I go through all her information
I'll see if there's any other way.
I'll put it into Yao Yao's notes
and bring it to the hospital for her.
Thanks, Xiao Tong.
You've really been a great help.
You're welcome.
Bye.
Guan Xiao Tong...
Listen, you're going to be famous.
You know that radio show called 'Tell Us Your Feelings?'
The show that invites famous celebrities to talk about relationships.
That's right.
In order to promote our agency
the Boss has given you the opportunity to go on that show.
I wonder how she did it.
This show usually only invites famous celebrities.
After you go on the show
everyone will know who Dr. Love is.
That's right.
But the biggest draw of this show is its 'True Love Mission' at the end.
It's a real test of the practicality of their guest's love advice.
That is so cruel.
Not only will it test out their guest
but also their guest's partner.
Yeah, last time when they invited
Taiwan's number one chef in French cuisine
her boyfriend had to perform a song with a ukulele.
But he was so nervous
that he went completely off tune.
That was so embarrassing.
Guan Xiao Tong, will Ji Jia Wei be up for it?
- I'm not... - I'm always up for anything.
It's just a simple lunch.
Why did we come all the way here?
I didn't want anyone to tag along with us.
Also, if I hadn't gone to your office
I wouldn't have known how hopeless they think I am.
That's not true.
They're just worried that you wouldn't want to go on the show.
Usually, I would never do something like that.
But if I don't go
what are you going to do?
All right, in order to thank you for breaking your rule for me
I'll treat you to a feast on Friday.
It'll be a homemade feast.
Homemade feast?
It's going to be at my place
and my mom's going to cook.
Hey.
What's the matter with you?
In order to thank you for breaking your rule for me
I'll treat you to a feast on Friday.
It'll be a homemade feast.
Homemade feast?
It's going to be at my place
and my mom's going to cook.
Hey.
What is the matter with you?
Shouldn't you have discussed it with me about it?
I'm discussing it with you now.
I can't.
I have to take Polo to his bath on Friday.
Polo's bath day is Thursday.
Well, Friday's our polo club's...
You usually play polo on Saturdays.
I've already checked that you're free on Friday.
Also, I thought you said
that apart from your working hours
you'd spare all your time for me, right?
You're not nervous, are you?
Nervous? Why would I be nervous?
I'm used to dealing with my clients' parents at my divorce agency.
This is nothing at all.
It's just that for some reason
I think it's quite likely that a sudden meeting might come up that day.
I see.
All right.
But I've already told me parents.
My mom said she would like to cook for you
and my dad wants to have a drink with you.
But if a meeting suddenly comes up then I guess there's nothing you can do.
I know work is important.
I'll just have to try and explain to them.
I didn't say I'm not going.
Then it's a date.
I'll put together the exhibition information
and give a copy to you all soon.
Out of the ten divorce stories
six of them were caused by problems with in-laws.
That's why people say love is between two people
whereas marriage is between two families.
A lot of marriage failures are actually caused by
giving the in-laws a bad impression when they first met.
Are you sure?
Meeting the parents is the same as a job interview.
The first impression is very important.
It'll decide whether they'll give you the green light.
Even if you love each other to death
it's still up to the parents to approve your marriage in the end.
That makes sense.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many stories like Romeo and Juliet.
You mean...
if things don't go that well when you meet the parents for the first time
then we might as well just break up?
- Meet your parents? - Meet your parents?
Lower your voices.
Are you serious?
So are you guys for real?
In that case, you must be extra careful.
Based on a research
here are the five biggest taboos for your first meeting with the parents.
Guan Xiao Tong, do you want to tell Ji Jia Wei about them?
What taboos?
Number one
don't look at your watch.
If you keep looking at your watch
then her parents would feel you're being impatient and distracted.
Points deducted.
Times have changed.
It should say don't play with your phone, right?
Number two, don't act lovey-dovey.
Isn't it a good thing to be romantic with one another?
Don't be so superficial.
Why put on a show?
It's not a show.
That's not the point.
Put yourselves into their shoes.
If you were her father would you want to see your daughter in another man's arms?
That makes sense.
But if he comes to my place I should keep him company, right?
Yeah, Papa Guan is not that jealous.
I'm sure they would love to see their daughter happy.
So this point doesn't apply.
Fine.
Number three, don't call her mom 'madam.'
- Then what should we call her? - Auntie.
Women hate to be treated as an old lady.
You should make her feel young.
What are you talking about?
The elderly are very particular about manners.
We can't just call her whatever we want.
What a ridiculous research.
Meeting dismissed.
An Ting, what are the rest of the taboos?
Number four, although presents are very important
but it shouldn't be too expensive or too cheap.
- Shouldn't presents be expensive? - That's just vulgar.
You know why?
If you give them an expensive present
they'd think you're trying to buy off their daughter.
But if it's too cheap
