Episode 2
come! come! come! come in quick! come in quick!
my place here, it's kind of small.
but two of us men living together here.
anything is fine. sit.
sorry.
sit. sit. sit. sit anywhere. sit anywhere.
here you go.
oh yeah. you're really delaying two years of your studies?
if your parents know, what will happen.
what is there to be afraid of?
I'm still young, and Xiao Mu's medication cannot wait.
Just happen that i have not paid for my school fees.
The money can be paid for Xiao Mu's medication.
It's hard to earn money nowadays.
Don't talk like we're dying.
What can knock me down?
I don't believe it.
Like father, like son.
Your father has been receiving scolding from your mother for years
yet still being able to be positive and cheerful.
From what i see, you've inherited his genes.
What do you mean getting scolded by her everyday
You don't see my parents sweet and loving together
Me staying at your house while taking gap year.
Don't tell my mother, even Xiao Hui.
We're brothers, small matter.
Don't worry.
But, since i did you a favour.
You help me out too.
Help you with what?
It's like this, I have an arranged date the day after tomorrow, but lack of one man.
The one who agreed before has something up, and i couldn't find anyone.
You're letting me be a wedding partner.
This is not fine, this is a scam.
How is this a scam?
Since you already have a girlfriend, you won't be paired up with that person anyway.
It's just for attendance, the point is that you earn money.
Impossible. I dont't earn money by unethical ways.
As the saying goes, “A man with honour makes money in a lawful way".
I don't do these kind of things.
You don't even help me out with this small matter.
If you have any problems next time, I won't help you out.
Talk it out next time.
Hello?
Wait a bit, I'll be there soon.
I have something up, we'll eat at night.
The scooter keys are here.
Bye bye.
What is going on.
This wrecked car.
Hello, Auntie.
Li Ren, where are you?
I'm on my way, will be there soon.
You have to be there, don't be late.
If you don't believe me, let the person who is going on the blind date to contact you.
Hello? Hello?
Hello?
No battery at the crucial time.
Hello, Director Hao.
Why are you here?
You have problems with your car right.
Do you need me to give you a ride?
None of your business, I can get a taxi myself.
It's hard to get a taxi at this time.
I never sit on things that are dangerous.
Directo Hao, aren't you in a hurry?
Let me send you there.
I can get a ride from you, but don't think you can get rid of your debt.
Women like to be calculative.
I'm not one to simply be on anyone's ride.
I'm only giving you a chance to perform.
Ok, thank you Director Hao for giving me this chance.
Finish talking. Get in.
Slow down.
You're leaving just like that?
I owe you one, if you have needs, just ask.
Besides letting you taking photos for out company and the debt for the camera.
Everything is negotiable.
Besides these two, what mutual benefits would we have.
You can owe me this, it's more valuable than the debt I owe you.
Ok, then.
Anyway, you're not urgent, so i don't have to rush, just don't regret till then.
Director Hao, actually I've always wanted to talk to you.
We'll talk when you have time.
Looking at your life and mine's
we both still have mutual benefits.
Not mutual benefits, it's your own benefits.
I think as long as it's not personal gain while others suffer it would be fine.
Not even a thank you!
You're really a calculative woman devil!
Hao Li Ren.
You really came?
I thought such a high classed woman like you wouldn't come for a blind date like this.
What's wrong with blind dates.
Of course we have to do things arranged by elderlies.
Let alone things arranged by Auntie.
I'll tell my mother that you accomplished her orders with full responsibility.
What are you here for?
I'm representing my mother to keep an eye on you.
DaZi.
You...aren't you...
Everyone's here?
Is it here? Why isn't anyone here?
You're all so obedient to my mother's orders.
What are you doing?
Ten people's blind dates, three from our home, what kind of group is this?
I believe in you that's why I chose your company.
How did you tell me at first?
Our three kids, you should at least pair one up.
None of the three of them have a pairing, you even made three of them dates.
What good are you, even if you slack you shouldn't slack like this.
Auntie Hao, listen to me.
Talk! Talk! Talk! Talk about what?
Youngsters shouldn't work with their mouths without showing actions.
Say what you want to say.
Auntie Hao, your Fang Tian Na, eagerly wanted to join the friend meeting.
I can't not think about my client's can't I?
And that Hao Cheng Bing, you only gave me his information yesterday.
How would I know he's your family member.
Then you should've ask, are there many whose surname is Hao
who go to your company of blind dates?
This is your work ethic problems, you're irresponsible.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry Auntie Hao, blame it on me.
I should've called and asked if those whose surnames are Hao are your family members.
I'm puzzled, how are three of your kids single.
Our children have good taste, they don't look up to ordinary people.
Yes, I know.
Auntie Hao, to your family members, we'll give personalised services.
It should've been like this earlier.
The outstanding one you mentioned last time, has she returned yet?
Hello Miss.
The main function of our mask is for safe whitening.
Miss, your skin is good, white and tender, and there's no wrinkles.
Really?
Being in an air-conditioned room, skin becomes dry.
Just right that this mask is for whitening and moisturising purposes.
Aren't you the director of
You should know silk protein, skin whitening and smoothing contents right?
You know me?
Of course I know you, I've seen you on magazines.
Aren't you the director of that fashion magazine?
The famous fashion woman.
I'll take two boxes, just to try them out.
Ok.
Hello sir, your dishes are all served.
Boss, bill!
-How much?-40 bucks.
Why is this season making people so depressed?
Depressed about what?
Us men, where comes motivation if there is no pressure?
Sunshine soldier me cannot be defeated.
I surrender to you, you're the only optimistic one.
If you were me, you wouldn't say that for sure.
Talk it out, let sunshine soldier help you with your problems.
Ultraman won't even be able to help me out.
Talk it out, I'm more ferocious than Ultraman.
I met an old leftover woman.
She's not ok with everything.
And I don't even know where she finds her confidence. She thinks she's Athena?
I don't understand.
With her age, she can marry anyone she finds.
There's a reason to why other people aren't leftovers but she is.
Ignore her then. Let her be alone until she's old.
Business isn't doing good now.
Or, you can help me out.
You're letting me be that wedding partner again?
No way.
If Xiao Hui knows, there would be no good outcome.
You can't just ignore my wellbeing just because you feel bad for Xiao Hui.
You have no justice.
Brother.
You can't just drag me to die with you.
I've helped you blocked the knife twice. (helped you out twice).
Are you gonna hold a knife today
and pierce it into your brother twice? (making me die twice)
Save me. Save me.
Please save me!
You're exaggerating too much.
Ok, I'll talk serious business with you. 500 bucks per hour.
If you don't do this business, who would?
How many bowls of noodles would your father have to sell?
Wouldn't you want to earn some money for Xiao Mu's medication?
I only help you this once, there's no next time.
Auntie, I'm already here.
I know, don't worry.
But this will be the last one I'll meet.
If it doesn't work out this time, I won't meet any next time. Just like this.
Okay. Bye bye.
Hello sir. How many guests?
-I'm looking for someone.-Could it be that lady?
-Thank you.-Your're welcome.
I'm sorry I'm late. Are you...
-It's you. -It's you.
Don't you have a girlfriend? What are you doing here?
Why can't I come?
According to the law, I'm single.
What are you doing here?
You're here for blind dating right?
You are getting older, no wonder you came here so early.
Who says I'm here for blind dating.
I...I am accompanying my friend.
She hasn't reached here yet.
Don't be shy.
I understand your feelings.
Actually the person you're waiting for is me.
Don't talk rubbish. Your one-sided love...
There's only the camera incident between us. There's nothing for us to talk about other than that.
Yes, the camera. That...
I wanted to talk to you about it, Director Hao.
Give me one more month.
Just one more month.
How is it you?
What are you doing here?
Were talking about some matter.
Blind dating?
He's quite good. But he looks younger than you.
Fang Tian Na. Do you have things to do? Do what you have to do.
I have nothing to do. I invited my friend but she's not here yet. I'll stay here for a while first.
Don't stay here. Aren't you the editor in chief at BoZi?
Shouldn't you write your script? What are you idling about here?
Why is your aren't your sources up-to-date?
It's because I write my scripts too good, that's why I'm out here to pastime.
Hello. I'm Fang Tian Na.
I'm BoZi's editor in chief. She's my elder sister.
I'll give you my name card.
It's not like I haven't seen that crappy article of yours.
You made last year's outdated fashion into this year's trend.
Don't embarrass yourself here. Go home now.
What do you know. I'm bringing retro back.
Are you leaving or not?
The person I made plans with isn't here yet. I'll sit here first.
If you don't leave, I will.
Sis! Sis! Sis!
My sister has bad temper. Don't put it by heart. Follows my uncle's temper.
What's your name? Let's get to know each other.
I'm sorry, I'll leave first.
We're not exchanging name cards?
Subtitles brought to you by team Love's Relativity at Viki Join us and subtitle your favorite dramas.
Hello, DaZi. I'll be at the company later.
I went to the hospital
for a checkup.
Ok, see you later.
Auntie, your arm is bleeding.
Call me big sister.
Big sister, your arm is bleeding.
I'll lend it to you.
Thank you, kid.
I'll remember to return it to you.
You're welcome.
What?
Leave your contact number. I'll contact you to return me the money when it is convenient.
How much is a band-aid. So young yet so calculative.
These kinds of cartoon designs costs 50 cents. Cash is acceptable.
Ok. Ok. Ok. I'll give it to you.
I'm just joking, auntie. Don't get angry easily.
You're sick!
I don't know. Maybe I'm sick. What about you?
I'm ill. I heard my brother said it's heart disease.
Auntie, would heart disease make one die faster?
Call me big sister.
Big sister, would having a heart disease make one die faster?
You have to think for yourself then. If you think you're healthy, then you will get well soon.
If you think you're seriously ill, how would you get better?
There is this saying that goes you get your wish.
It's this reason.
Little kid, I'm giving you this in exchange for the band-aid.
So beautiful. Thank you big sister.
Such bad luck!
What were you talking to my sister about?
She...she's your sister?
Yes. She's my sister.
What are you doing here?
None of your business.
Really is enemies on a narrow road (idiom).
Big brother, how is that beautiful auntie your rival?
You don't know adult matters, don't be a busybody.
Xiao Mu is back, go do your homework.
Come here.
Xiao Mu is back! Here.
I'll go cook.
I'll go help out.
Dad and mom, drink water.
Xiao Mu is so well-behaved.
Have you finished your homework?
Go do it.
Go. Go. Go.
So well-behaved.
You've grown up, you've become more sensible.
Old man, if this kid knows we're not her birth parents, what would happen?
Her parents died in an earthquake.
She's our birth daughter.
Don't ever let her know now. She's still young, she won't be able to accept it.
Pity this child's health.
I am even willing to sell off my blood if it means for her to recover.
Don't you think our business is getting better? Don't worry.
What getting better?
This is daughter. We still have a son.
Our son is getting married.
"When the car arrives in front of a mountain, there is bound to be a road." (there is always a way around)
Your surname should be "Chang" (Often), and your name "Chang You Li" (Often Rational).
Mum you don't need to worry, there will be a solution.
If not, there's still me.
Here spend this on Xiao Mu's medication.
Where did you get that much money?
It's extra income I made from helping my friend take pictures.
You guys stop asking, take it.
The Taste of LaoDiZi MuMu's Noodle Shop
New York. New York (Store name)
Director Hao.
This is the front cover of this period's magazine. Take a look.
Did you match (pick) the models' jewelry?
DaZi let me match the models' accessories.
What we want is the Western style's bling bling feeling.
do you understand?
Why was the matching so plain?
If you really don't understand then
you can search online or on Baidu.
Did you not develop hands or did you not develop a brain?
You're so young, is learning a few more things not good?
It's beneficial for you future.
Don't just think about dating the entire day.
What does me dating have got to do with you?
You can't even get married and won't even let people date.
Xiao Hui what nonsense are you talking about?
Da Zi sister
I just gave the front cover draft to Director Hao to look over.
It's not bad
Just that the feeling given from the accessories is a bit off.
Add something that glistens. That way, the effect would be better when it comes out.
But, Director Hao has already censured me.
It's no problem. Take it slowly.
Do you think she is tired from keeping a straight face all day?
Spend less time studying her. Working hard is what is proper.
Whether or not I take notice, she still yells at me.
Typical old women mentality.
Do you have to make it so that you get on her nerves?
If she were really to get angry, you'll really be in serious trouble.
It's not easy for young people like you to find a job, and you still don't treasure it well.
Actually, I don't have that wild of an ambition.
I do not want to become an overly strong woman like HaoLiRen.
I only hope that I can marry well. Shouldn't all women be like this?
Isn't your Li Ang good enough?
He is good. But it's "three missing one."
Are you playing Mahjong? What does "three missing one" mean?
Isn't it popular now to marry someone who's tall, rich, and handsome?
Li Ang is both tall and handsome...but it's just that he doesn't have money.
Are you trying to say that you're a "Bai fu mei"?(A term used in China meaning women who are white, rich and beautiful)
Yes, I am indeed "Bai fu mei."
The template layout this time is as such...
Big sister I have something to tell you.
You have nothing to do all day. What are you at my office for?
How many times have I told you to not call me "sister" here?
I know. I know.
Wealthy miss, what can I help you with this time?
-Have you thought about it yet? -What?
The classmate reunion.
I see that you are really bored to the point where you have nothing to do.
Is it so easy to dawdle around in the company? The editor-in-chief has nothing to do, right?
Aren't you competing against me on distribution numbers?
Why don't you hurry up and go back to work hard? Lest you'll come here again in the future and act shamelessly because you lost.
You're the type of person who does not receive rewards even with a good heart.
I'm just afraid that there is no one to accompany you to the classmate reunion and you'll be embarrassed if Yu Wei sees you.
Since you don't need it, then I also won't mind your business anymore.
Also, the bet that you and uncle are having has nothing to do with me of course.
But I think that you should show some filial piety.
So, why don't you reluctantly lose to me once?
No need to discuss.
I'm just dawdling around at BoZi.
Please help. You also can't let uncle be left in an embarrassing situation, right?
I'll tell you for the last time, no.
How do you think Hao Chairman would be if he found out that his victory came from this request of yours?
Then how about you give me an incredible special topic?
Trade secrets cannot be leaked.
If you give me a special topic, I'll give you a handsome guy.
Don't start talking conditions with me. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving.
If you don't change your bad temper, you won't be able to find a boyfriend.
You don't need to worry about my matters.
Is her hot-temper related to the seasons?
Main topic?
What is this?
Put item back in its original place. (idiom)
Cappuccino Cafe
The deadline for your compensation payment is almost here.
You are pretty brave.
I haven't asked to meet yet, but you have come to find me instead.
Then let's discuss a bit.
Director Hao, I will definitely return the money
but I hope that you can give me a bit more time.
How much longer do you want?
One month, I can definitely return it by then.
That is so strange,
you're a grown up man yet can't pay for the camera.
If you don't have the money, then go earn it. Don't come to find me all the time.
I just graduated.
Don't you know how hard it is to find a job?
Money can't be earned easily.
Truthfully there is something that I can't understand.
What is it?
From an objective standpoint, your qualifications aren't that bad.
For a handsome young man like you, there shouldn't be a problem earning a couple hundred/thousand Yuan everyday.
Plus, you're dating and yet you're still being a wedding partner?
I've met many hypocritical men like you.
Why are you such an odd person, always thinking of the bad sides of people.
I'm odd? You're saying that I'm odd?
Ok. return me the money.
Ok. Ok. I won't be able to beat you, Director Hao.
Let's talk. What are you so nervous for?
Here, drink a cup of coffee.
-What is it?-Waiter.
Do you have any needs?
Please pour me a glass of warm water.
How dangerous it is to take medicine with coffee.
The chemical reaction would be disastrous.
Do you know what is the molecular formula of caffein? What is the molecular formula of this medicine, do you know?
What is the molecular formula of the offspring of caffein and medicine?
Or maybe, it's just a retarded child.
I think you're the love product of the caffein and medicine.
If you have something to say, say it nicely. Don't drag my parents into this conversation as well.
You should pay more attention. It's your body.
Sir, your water.
For you. Please.
Hao Li Ren, don't blame me for not reminding you. Our classmates reunion is just around the corner.
How is it with you there? I'm telling you,
I have so many handsome guys here.
Or, I can give you some.
I have no interest in your harems, you can save them for yourself.
Listening to what you've just said, are you planning on finding the guy from the café?
Even if the male population on earth died, I wouldn't go for him.
Find a temporary actor, if you have to.
You better not embarrass the Hao family.
What is it with that handsome guy again? He's quite a good person.
I tell you, if he shows up, the whole place will be packed.
Have you considered? Do you want him or not?
I'm going for it.
Aren't you annoying?
I don't know whether he is reliable or not.
I'm a director, but I have fallen to this plight.
If I went by myself it isn't a big deal.
Just go ahead with it.
Director Hao, you were looking for me?
What did you need to say that we needed to meet? We saw each other yesterday.
Oh my god, how can I be doing such a thing?
If you need to say something, feel free to say it. As long as I have the ability to do it.
It's nothing you can go now.
I think there's something wrong with you.
I came all the way here, and you give me those seven words?
"It's nothing, you can leave now."
Is it you who's ill or is it me?
Earlier on I needed you but now I don't.
Then it's considered fine even though you haven't told me yet?
Then does it mean that I have helped or that I haven't helped?
Then are you appreciating what I did for you or not?
How can you be so inadequate?
Did I say it wrong?
I made the trip here and now you don't need anything.
This favor...If you are grateful, then let me feel it.
Then I thank you
Then you don't have to feel like you have gone through something troublesome. Just go to wherever you need to go, okay?
-Then I'm really going now.-Go, go, go.
He really left?
Wait, wait, wait, wait for a second.
Let's do some business together.
For 2 hours, I'll give you 2000 Yuan.
You want me to help you take pictures?
No. I have to attend a classmate reunion tomorrow.
Go with me, you don't need to do anything but just sit there.
I understand now,
you want me to act as your boyfriend.
That's right,
I want you to be a temporary actor.
Or you can say a human prop.
I only know how to take pictures. I don't know how to act.
Besides, my buddies and I have only done entertaining before.
I've never sold my body.
Do you not know how to appreciate favors from others?
If it weren't for Xiao Mu, I wouldn't even bother with you.
Also, there's only a couple of hours left before you have to repay for the camera.
Suit yourself.
How about this? I invite you to go grab a bite to eat. Let's eat while we talk.
Eh, don't think that I would say yes to all your requests just because you are paying for the meal.
When I go take portraits for others, they pay me for showing up.
Moreover, for being your temporary boyfriend?
Okay. Then you state a price. I want to see how much you are worth.
How much I'm worth?
What is this talk, Director Hao?
You are the one who is asking for my help right now, and you are still being fierce? This makes it difficult for me to help you.
You're a grown man. Make your words straightforward.
Are you helping or not helping?
Women who understand when they should compromise are the cutest.
That's the aspect you lack.
Since I've already told you about my situation
If it weren't for my heterosexual friends not being available on the weekend,
then I wouldn't have asked you to act as my boyfriend.
He really had something going on?
What are you trying to say?
Oh I didn't say anything, continue.
Acting as my boyfriend is okay,
acting as my good friend is also okay.
In short, I want my friends to feel that there is something going on between us two.
My friends from college are all full of gossip.
If I went by myself they would all take behind my back.
I don't like having people making senseless remarks about me.
So it's like that.
So if I don't help you, then that would make you very embarrassed right?
Then are you helping or not helping?
I'll think about it.
Having talked all the way to this part,
What kind of attitude is that?! Is it that hard to help someone?
I remember someone saying that there wouldn't be any reciprocation between the two of us.
This time it is purely for your individual benefit. Isn't that right?
Okay. For mutual benefit right?
I promise you. If you help me then the money to pay for the camera I'll give you half price.
How much did you just say that the money to pay for the camera was?
Half of it.
"How much did you just say that the money to pay for the camera was?"
"Half of it."
Alright, but I also have a condition.
Don't let Lin Xiao Hui know, or else I'll be in big trouble.
I'm just standing next to you as a human prop.
I'm not going to drink or chat with you, and I also don't need to travel with you.
After the classmate reunion ends, my work ends immediately.
I won't prolong it even for one minute.
Don't worry. I don't want others to know. The sooner it is over the better.
Also
We are not doing any sort of body contact.
For instance, holding hands...kissing the cheeks...
embracing the waist...hugging...that type of stuff are all out of the question.
You're thinking too much.
-Mum-You're playing again.
Get ready to go sleep, drink your milk.
Take a look. Recently I have been staying up late and I have bags under my eyes.
I know.
Mummy I hope you sleep well, goodnight!
You think I can sleep well?
All of you guys haven't even married yet. How can I sleep well?
I'm telling you. Stop playing around like you are now.
When the children of other families are all settled, and you guys haven't even married yet,
Do you think it's embarrassing or not?
What is so embarrassing?
Since Dad passed away you haven't looked for a boyfriend.
Uncle hasn't said anything, so it's good.
That is because your uncle is nice, being willing to take care of the two of us. Otherwise, how would we be living so well?
You're at it again Mum.
I'm also for you.
If you don't look for a boyfriend I won't look for one either.
Stop saying nonsense.
How can a girl not get married?
What happens when you're by yourself?
My responsibility now is to have you and your sister marry well and be well-off.
Then my heart can be put at ease.
I'm telling you. Don't play around anymore.
Don't think that I'm always out playing around. If one day I'm really going to get married,
I am definitely not marrying someone who isn't distinguished, suave, and scholarly.
Gifted scholar?
Before I thought that you were in love with money.
How is it that you like people with talent/ability now?
Hao Li Ren, I can't beat her
but my future husband can beat her husband.
Then you should get married in order to compete with her.
It was still fine when we weren't talking about this. Now that we are, I feel stressed out.
Okay, go to sleep.
Good night mum.
Hurry up and come out!
Didn't we agree to meet at 3PM? What time is it now to start working?
Don't you think that you should buy a formal suit?
This is a banquet. If you dress like that, wouldn't it be very embarrassing for me?
I buy the clothes, you pick.
You're wearing this?
Why do you care about what I wear?
Of course I need to care.
In a bit, we'll be lovers. If you are so hideous, I'll lose a lot of face.
How about this, you help me buy it and I help you buy it. In half an hour meet here.
Why should I trust your taste?
You're not a stylist. What if it doesn't look good when I wear it?
If you aren't satisfied with my pick, I'll pay for it. If you are, then you pay.
Okay I trust you.
I want to see what you can come up with.
Then let's begin.
Subtitles by team Love's Relativity at VikiJoin us and subtitle your favorite dramas.
If you walk that way, there is a salon.
Let's meet there in an hour. It's exactly 1:30 PM right now.
Then we'll leave directly from there.
Does it really take an hour to get your hair done?
You've kept this hairstyle for many years already, right?
It shouldn't be easy to change it now.
Why are you going?
I need to change my clothes and also do my hair.
Then okay in a while we'll see each other.
