This bed is so soft.
It's so comfortable!
Jiang Meili, you can't!
Did you forget you're not Wang Xuan's daughter?
This all doesn't belong to you.

Good morning aunty.
Miss, you're here.
You can leave this to me.
-Ok. -You guys go back and rest up.
Honey, we're leaving now,
we'll come back tomorrow.
Let's go.
Good bye!
I'll leave here to you.
Don't worry, just go back.
I'll leave it to you.
Thank you for your trouble!
It is fortunate that Auntie Wang found a nurse to take care of Mom.
She's so nice to us.
Even if she is, it's not for long.
We have to return Wang Xuan's favors.
I should find another job.
Dad, why're you saying that?
Wang Xuan is grateful you raised sis.
You'll be regarded as an outsider if you keep saying things like that.
Her family name is Wang, we're Jiang,
we're originally not a family so of course we're outsiders.
Besides, the reason your mom and I raised Meili
wasn't for this.
We shouldn't take what's ours.
Dad, are you ok?
Did that car accident give you brain damage?
A little.
It let me realized something.
Don't think taking advantage of something is a good thing.
If we take too much, we'll have to pay a bigger price.
Meiyan, listen to dad.
Your sister has alot of pressure on her right now,
we can't make any more trouble for her.
We should earn our own living and have self reliance.
So in case one day, no one is giving us anything,
we can still live based on our power.
Do you understand?
Dad, you've changed!
I'm so proud of you!
If mom wakes up and hears about this, she'll be so happy she'll cry!
Don't worry, I, Jiang Meiyan, isn't a weakling.
I won't just depend on others.
For the sake of tis family, I'll strive for self-improvement!
My good daughter.
Meili used to support this family.
Now, it's our turn.
So we must defend it.
When your mom wakes up, and Meili comes back,
our family can reunite again!
-Let's go home. -Ok
From now one, I'll cook, you do laundry.
I don't want to do laundry!
-Did you forget what dad just said? -I hate laundry!
These are life drawings from when I was Beijing.
This is the Summer Palace (in Beijing).
Teacher Wang,
Excuse me, I'll go over there for a bit.
Hello Teacher Wang,
-Hello Old Chen, -Hello
-I'm happy that you came to my art exhibition. -Of course I would.
Meili, come.
This is my daughter, Jiang Meili.
This is Mr. Chen.
Hello Mr. Chen.
You've grown so big.
Thank you Mr. Chen.
Old Chen,
can you show me the drawing from last time?
Sure.
Meili, go look around for a bit ok?
I'll be back after some business.
Let's go Mr. Chen.
This is my new drawing,
it's called [Light].
This is the one you were talking about.
I borrowed alot of western art for this one.
Weird, why isn't dad picking up?
Ms. Wang? Ms. Wang!
I'm sorry, please continue.
I haven't done this type of work for so long.
What? You can't handle it?
My waist is going to break soon.
Old Jiang, I have medicine,
do you want some?
Sure. Put it on.
This is very effective.
Here, right here.
I don't understand you Old Jiang.
Isn't your daughter Meili, Wang Xuan's daughter?
Their family is rich!
Even if she isn't willing to give you a big sum,
she should give you some money
for you do live well right?
Look at you, coming all the way here,
and working the same job as us. -Right?
What do you know?
That's their money, why would I want it.
I just want to do my own job.
Live peacefully as a small town man.
It's honest work.
Old Jiang,
you look like you have difficulties.
Tell me the truth,
your daughter found out about her rich mother and forgot about you right?
I'm telling you,
don't you spout nonsense about out Meili.
She's not that type of person.
Then I find it weird.
You say it's right and proper for a daughter to support her parents.
Right.
Well she has money now,
she's living a rich life,
and putting you in this harsh situation.
How can that be?
I have my principles.
From now on, don't ask about this anymore.
Um, this week has overtime.
-Who wants to do it? -Me!
-Ok, Old Jiang it is. -This guy.
I'm going to Chen Yi (the company) to find Director Guan in a bit.
Do you want to come with me?
Meili.
Meili?
I'm sorry.
What's wrong.
My dad won't take my calls or call back,
I'm worried that something might happen.
Do you want to go home first?
Mr. Li, take a turn up front.
-Take Meili home first. -Ok.
Then tonight,
go eat dinner with your adopted father and sister.
Didn't we say we were going to eat?
I don't care about a single meal.
I want to find Director Guan about Ruolin's album.
It's probably boring for you to be there anyways.
I rather you go home and be with your family.
I'll tell Mr. Li to pick you up later.
Thank you.
Good morning Director.
What did you do now?
It's nothing, I'd just like to ask you for some help.
How should I put this,
-it's just. -If you can't say it, don't.
No, Director,
I want to borrow some money.
You bought too much with your card,
now you can't pay it back?
Yes.
I can help you.
Really? Thank you!
Give me your credit card.
Platinum? The quota is high.
That's why I accidentally over spent.
Director!
Using a credit card may be easy,
but it tests a person's self control.
You overusing your credit card means you have no self control.
I lend you money, you pay off your bill, then you use your card again.
That'll hurt not help you.
Your next paycheck is in two weeks.
Here's 3000 yuan (459USD).
Deducting your credit card bill,
it should still be enough to live.
Enjoy your life of money constraint,
and pay back your bill.
-What is it? -Director Guan, Teacher Wang Xuan is here.
She says that she has some matters she would like to talk to you about.
I understand.
Yiqiang,
At your age right now, you should be concerned about putting your thoughts on
how to improve your own ability.
And not just thinking about what to eat or drink every day.
At your age, I already became a producer.
You can't possibly think that you'll be my assistant forever, right?
Think well by yourself.
Teacher Wang.
Director Guan.
Sorry, I came here to see you without warning.
There is something I want to talk to you in person.
- Please sit.- Thanks!
What is it?
For Ruolin's album to release on time,
I really hope Director Guan
can arrange a special interview for Ruolin and I.
I want to explain everything to the public.
But doing a special interview right now,
it will focus on your private issue.
I know Teacher Wang has always been very private.
Are you sure you want to do that?
This is my aim.
Meili is not a public figure.
I am not in music business right now,
so we don't need to worry about the new report.
But Ruolin is different.
Any rumour can be a big damage to Ruolin's music career.
Teacher Wang.
I have an idea and want to see what you think.
Okay. Please tell me.
Meili's good voice shouldn't be overlooked.
I really wish she will sign with us, Cheng Yi in the future.
And let me tailor an album specially for her.
Thank you, Director Guan.
But I am really sorry.
I won't agree to let Meili to go into music business.
Ruolin might not have Meili's voice.
But Ruolin has the drive.
So she can success in music business.
But Meili is different.
Meili's personality
is too naive and kind.
This business is too complex.
I don't believe this career will suit her.
To Ruolin,
I really can't bare to let her face the difficulties on her own.
But for Meili,
I only want to be a selfish mother.
I want her life
to be very ordinary and happy.
Director Guan, I think you would understand
the different approach toward Ruolin and Meili, right?
So for going on the show, I will leave it to Director Guan.
Okay. I will arrange for the special interview soon.
This matter
drag it on for one more day mean more damage.
So could you please get it done as soon as possible?
Hello, I am the new girl who is here for the interview.
I am just wondering how long do I need to wait for the interview.
I need to go to work in a minute.
I don't know either. The manager is in the meeting right now.
Do you want to cancel your interview?
It's fine. I will wait for a bit longer.
Thanks.
Sorry. I was late because I had something to do.
- Sorry. - Look at it. What time is it?
Are you here to work, do you know?
If this happens again? I will ask the company to change you for someone else.
- Go!- Sorry! Sorry!
I am really sorry!
Once I got my interview for the new job,
I can leave this damn place.
- Waiter, beers, please.- Okay.
Thanks!
YOU!
Sorry, my movements were a bit to bid earlier.
I touched you by accident.
I am sorry.
So! What kind of face is that?
Are you going to get angry?
Dad, you should call back right away if you saw that I have called you.
I was worried for the entire afternoon.
Got it! Got it!
I only missed one call.
Look at you. Nagging none stop.
Why did you become like your Mom?
- Here.- Here, Dad.
Try and see if it teaste like Mom's cooking.
Try a little piece.
What do you think?
- It's the same.- I will try this.
You haven't wash your hands yet. Go wash up then eat.
Meili. Now your
cooking just like your Mom's.
You even talk and do things
just like your Mom like coming out from the same mold.
Who says only biological kids would be alike!
Kids been raised is the same as well.
As long as we as a family work together,
there is no difference.
Dad.
Dad's hands are dirty. I will go wash my hands.
I will go wash my hands.
Pervert. Only knew how to groping.
I am cursing you to have that dirty hand of yours to be scald by hot water
and a car drives over that hand. Drive over.
Finally, it is time to go home.
So cold.
Jiang Meiyan.
Shouldn't you be in Canada living happily ever after?
Why are you here to with bottles
and drunk people?
Jiang Meiyan.
You are so unlucky!
Even though they won't give up right now.
And want to persuade me to work at the charity foundation.
But I won't agree no matter what.
According to you,
Wang Xuan is really nice to you.
The nicer she is to me, it only make me feel worse.
In face, several times,
I almost couldn't hold it back and tried to tell her the truth.
But when I imagine that I have to face her sad face,
I can only swallow the words almost spell out of my mouth.
When she let me coming back to see you and Meiyan,
in fact, I was very happy inside.
Finally, I can take off my mask for a little bit
and stop acting.
Meili.
I know this is very difficult for you.
But we have made the decision.
There is no way out.
You can only brace yourself and keep walking down the road (we choose).
I know.
It is very late. Why isn't Meiyan home yet?
She is working at the restaurant.
There is no hours with restaurant.
If they come across with a drunk, then it would have delay for a bit.
But Meiyan has become very grown up lately.
If your Mom can see what she is like now,
I know that she will wake up with a smile.
I am home.
Sis, you are back.
I miss you so much.
Look at you! You are so pretty.
Where did you get your cloth? So pretty.
I still like your sister's old get up.
Not at all. Sis is prettier now.
Look at it. So pretty.
You went buy clothes again?
No, sis.
Jiang Meiyan.
You dare to wear skirt so short!
No... I didn't buy it. This is company uniform.
Tell me, what kind of job
need to wear things like this.
Don't misunderstand.
It is just regular restaurant's regular sales person.
... It's for selling liquors.
And help out with opening the liquors. Those kind.
I remember. I have seen it.
One time, I ate with Old Chen at a hot pot restaurant.
Those are sale people.
They sell liquors.
No matter what. It is not safe to wear clothes like this.
What if someone is drunk and try to grope you?
Hurry and go quit your job.
Sis. If you are talking about dangerous,
isn't it more dangerous for you to be riding "Little Red" (the scooter) to do delivery before?
You work in windy day or rainy day and going in and out of the little streets.
Comparing to my current job, it is more dangerous.
That is not the same.
Sis.
Dad, trust me. I am all grown up now.
If I find other job,
I will quit this job right away.
I will take good care of myself.
Trust me.
Okay. Be careful, yourself.
Here. Come sit down.
You haven't told me where you bought your clothes.
Sis, your new clothes are so pretty, Why are you bringing your old clothes?
Even thought the clothes are pretty, I am very uncomfortable wearing them.
I am Jiang Meili for 20 years,
wearing pretty clothes
and moving into a big house won't make me become a different person.
I am still the same Jiang Meili. I am also your sister.
You will always be my beloved sister. You know?
Sis! I really love you very much.
I was worry if Auntie Wang took you home with her,
you might become distant with us.
I feel okay now hearing you saying this.
Silly! This is my real home.
Our relationship will never change.
I promise.
Morning, Mom.
Morning.
Did you come home a bit late last night?
Yes.
Finally I get to meet up with my Dad and sister, so we chat a bit.
You are making dumpling. I will help.
You know how to make dumpling?
My Dad's jobs were always shift work.
My Mom had to take care of both me and my sister so she can't do it on her own.
So I helped out at the kitchen since I was little.
Like washing veggies, cooking and making noodles kind of work.
Let along dumplings, it is piece of cake.
I didn't know you have such a hard time before.
I don't find it hard.
I am very happy that I can help my Mom.
Really.
Isn't a family like that?
Helping each other when it is needed.
Why didn't you wear the new clothes?
Those pretty clothes, what a waste if I get it dirty.
It is better if I wear my old clothes.
How is your Dad and sister?
They are doing fine.
I have talk to your uncle. You guys won't go to Canada now.
But your adopted Mother's illness can't just keep go on like that.
So we have decided to bring that expert doctor from Canada here.
And give your adopted mother an exam directly.
Really? That's great!
Thanks! -
Sorry, I got your clothes dirty.
What are you doing? It's fine.
Who doesn't get clothes dirty when they cook?
Meili, I actually find
that I like this kind of feeling.
This is what mother and daugter are like.
I will answer a call.
Hello?
Teacher Wang, DIrector Guan has mentioned the idea of the special interview.
Because this program already gave a special interview,
doing same topic will give very limited program result.
Teacher Wang, would you consider to come to the show with both of your daughters?
Please give me a minute.
Chief Editor Zhang, I appreciate your suggestion.
But this special interview is for Ruolin which has nothing to do with Meili.
Besides, I really don't Meili's life is interfered.
So for the special interview, could you talk it with Director Guan?
Okay. Thanks!
What's wrong? Something happened?
Nothing. Let's continue making dumpling.
My mom is really good at making dumplings.
Look at your dumplings! They are better looking than mine
It will taste even better if you put some dried shrimp.
Really?
Jiang Meili, I really envy your ability.
This family needs to watch your face in order to get fed.
What do you mean by that?
Didn't you know?
Since you showed up, my Dad's company's stock has been going down.
My album release date is nowhere to be seen. Even Mom has been very careful around you.
You are really skillful.
The Cui Can Column specifically wanted you to also be there at the interview.
Jiang Meili, I have under estimated you.
Delayed release? For how long?
Delate to the point that everybody forgot about me? Or like my Mom
come back after 20 years?
To Guan Yi, you use your voice as bait and throw yourself at him.
Xu Ruolin!
To my Mom, you gain her sympathy by being a lost daughter being apart for 20 years.
Sander? Since you show up, my life has been a mess.
I can't take it any more.
Everyone can just be on her side.
Since I am the only bad guy, I will leave.
One day has past,
if I call now, would it be too much?
Fine. Since I am talking about calling, I should call.
Good thing I didn't call.
Hello.
Guan Yi, is it convenient for you?
You are the one that is inconvenient all the time.
So where do you want to start?
Was the exclusive interview with Cui Can canceled because of me?
It has nothing to do with you.
Teacher Wang has already explained that she doesn't want you to be bothered.
Besides, what they have offered, we can't accept.
This special interview, is it very important to my Mom and Ruolin?
Besides going on the program, is there anything I can do for them?
Meili you don't understand music business and you can't help anyway.
So you don't need to worry, I will fix it.
How are you going to fix it?
Guan Yi, be honest with me.
Can the problem solved as long as I agree to be on the program?
You are not saying anything so that is an yes then.
Since that is the only way to solve the problem,
then I want to ask you tell the other side.
Tell them that I agree to go on the show.
Meili, why do you always gather up all the trouble and bring them to yourself?
Did you know that once you go on the show,
Those nasty internet users will magnified everything you say and do under microscope.
Do you want to be eaten alive by others?
But didn't you want me to be a singer before?
That is not the same.
Before you become a singer, you will go through training and packaging.
You will learn how to enlarge your good side and hide your bad side.
Right now, you go on a show will be like
...like an unarmed solder going on the field.
You won't have the ability to protect yourself.
In the end, you won't even know how you die.
But...
If doing this is harmless, we will help you for sure.
But we all know the danger of you going on public.
So I also disagree you go on the show.
I know you all want to protect me.
But...
My mom has damage her image because of me.
Because of me, Ruolin's album was also effected.
Uncle Sun lost his life because of me.
I don't want anyone get misfortune because of me any more.
Do you understand?
Guan Yi, I can only ask you to help me.
Okay. I can help you.
But I have a condition.
What kind of condition?
You can't cry on your own in the future.
If you need help, you have to come to me.
If you can't solve it, feel bad
and want to cry, you can cry on my shoulder.
You can't keep me out, did you hear me?
♫ The second hand (of the clock) won't stop so the hour hand (of the clock) can only try to catch up ♫
Okay, I promise you.
Good night.
♫ Just for that little bit... of the happiness. ♫
♫ The second hand (of the clock) has stop but the hour hand (of the clock) can catch up ♫
♫ Love is right, however I am so wrong that I can't be right. ♫
♫ The people in the city, just for that little bit of happiness ♫
♫ All of a sudden, everything ♫
♫ Everything of everything ♫
Big Director Guan, going into studio this week.
You have rejected 3 mother-daughter interview yesterday.
I already found someone else. I already sent out the notice.
Only one night, you already have a new plan.
Editor Zhang is really efficient.
We do have a lot of pressure.
If we make a little mistake, the other problem will surpass us.
If that is the case, I won't put Editor Zhang in the bad spot.
I hope Editor Zhang will be understanding.
Understanding what?
In Slam Dunk (Japanese manga),
Hanamichi Sakuragi once accidentally passed the basketball to the opposing team and then as a result lost the game.
Your competing show was only behind you by tiny bit last week.
I believe Editor Wong from the program will happily open both of his arms and welcome Wang Xuan and both of her daughters to his program.
If this time, your viewer rating were surpass by them,
Editor Zhang, your mistake won't be
as simple as Sakuragi Hanamichi's and only need to shave off your hairs.
I won't bother Editor Zhang any longer.
I need to give Editor Wong a call.
3. 2. 1.
Hello.
Go into the studio and record this week?
Okay, I got it.
I will wait for Editor Zhang's detail plan.
Bye.
Meili.
Meili?
Meili! Meili?
Are you looking for me?
Why're you sleeping here?
I probably fell down last night.
I always do that, I'm fine though.
Come.
Chief Editor Zhang just called me.
You said you want to go interview with us?
Why are you doing this?
I've received so much from you recently,
and I want to do something for this family.
I don't want you to touch the show business.
This business is very complex.
Don't worry mom. I have no interest in the show business.
I purely just want to help Ruolin.
Ever since we've met, you and uncle have been so good to me.
I've actually been feeling guilty.
Now I actually have the chance to do something for you guys,
I'm really willing to do this.
You can't.
Mom, just let me do this.
Let's solve this problem as a family this time ok?
Ok.
Thank you, Meili.
Can we talk?
If I said no, will you leave?
If you're actually a well mannered person, you wouldn't be here,
talking to me.
I want to talk to you about the interview.
If you want to take credit for someone else's achievement, no need.
I won't give you this opportunity.
Even if my career is in danger, I don't need your help.
Leave! I won't go on the show with you.
Looks like we were all wrong. You actually don't care about your career.
Jiang Meili, don't think I will fall for that trick.
I'm not tricking you, I'm telling the truth.
You fought to get your collaboration with mom
and yet stopping it because of me.
Now you finally have the chance to do it again, yet you reject because of me.
Who knew you would give up your career just to fight with me.
Jiang Meili, don't think you're all that.
What are you that I would do anything for you?
If it's not for me, then it's for your reputation.
Are all these added up not worth your career?
Mom told me that, especially now, no matter how depressed or upset you get,
you'll still go to dance practice on time. That you prepare yourself for an opportunity at any given time.
Now the chance is here, and the choice is up to you.
Of course, you can choose to reject.
But if you give up everything because of me, is it worth it?
Come in.
Director.
Xu Ruolin agreed to come onto the program.
The plan for her propaganda has been adjusted.
This is the information you wanted.
Alright, call Ruolin to come here and discuss this.
Ok.
Actually, you don't need to.
It'll be easier if I go to her house personally.
Sorry to ask you to come all the way over here.
I have to finish some business so I'll leave first.
Have a good chat.
What're you looking at? Didn't you need to speak with me?
Rather than taking our time to arrange an album,
we should make it an single.
Let it go onto the market and brew first, then have a follow up.
This is the image for the single.
As for the documents-
What?
I'm thinking, if Jiang Meili wasn't here, would we still be like before?
Even if she wasn't here, we still wouldn't go back to before.
-Even if Jiang-- -You're really resolute.
Who knew that not being loved by someone you used to be with was so devastating.
The only thing I can do for you right now is help you with your song.
And I believe this is our last collaboration.
Using [Can't bear to leave you] to end our relationship,
is rather interesting.
Fine, let's have a good last collaboration.
Let's leave on good terms.
I heard Guan Yi is here.
I haven't seen him since the call.
You!
You don't have any feelings?
No matter how hard I kiss you still don't feel anything?
Ok, I've confirmed we're actually done.
Xu Ruolin, I'm warnign you.
Don't use this method to test my patience.
If there's a next time-
Is there going to be a next time? Are you going to give me a next time?
You're not allowed to cry alone.
If you need help, find me.
If you really can't solve something, feel bad and want to cry, cry on my shoulder.
Don't see me as an outsider, you got that?
♫ But If you and she are happy, ♫
