Episode 14
Mom, if you don't say anything how would I know?
What happened between you and Sister Xiu Xiu?
Wait a minute.
What did you say?
Sister Xiu Xiu?
She's the same age as me,
so call her Auntie.
The difference between you two...
Difference? Is there a big difference?
Better think before you speak.
The difference is about the same.
Mom, I'm working with her right now.
I need to give her a good impression so we can work together.
Also, this is a big case.
If it is successful, my fame would... jump 3 levels higher.
But don't shout it in front of me at the very least.
Fine. Then tell me what happened between you and Xiu Xiu-
Xiu Xiu what?
What exactly happened between you two?
Children shouldn't ask so many things.
We just don't get along.
There's no way we can live together.
Let me tell you.
If she's at Living Happiness #1, then I won't be there.
But she is the spokesperson for Living Happiness #1.
You can't tell the spokesperson to move out, can you?
Then I won't move in there.
Mom... you're making it difficult for me.
Why is it difficult for you?
Didn't I just tell you?
I took her case and I'm doing her styling for her.
If she knows that I'm your son, and gets angry at me, what do I do?
That's right. What you said is correct.
You really do know her well.
She is just like that.
She's arrogant, prideful, and likes to hold grudges.
She really will pick on you.
But. No, that's not right.
You can't tell me to please her for that reason.
I'm telling you, if you ask me to please her. I only have 3 words for you.
There's no way.
Mom, you don't need to please her.
You just need to move in first and live with her peacefully.
Peacefully live together, that's all.
This way, perhaps she won't be angry with me.
Really?
I am suspicious though.
Alright, let's not talk about this.
Then what do you think of Living Happiness #1?
Other than Tao Xiu Qiong, everything is pretty good.
That's right.
Also, the caretaker there makes very good tasting food.
Look. In such a short period of time, we found such a nice place.
That's not very easy.
This is because I used my connections to get this place.
Mom, I would like to live with you.
And I want you to live a little better.
Let me take care of you okay?
Please.
What is the problem here?
Why does Miss Tao suddenly want to leave?
Miss Tao, she...
I suddenly want to leave the country.
Let's talk about my moving after I come back.
Let's not. You've already moved in.
I can just move back home.
Don't be like that.
You just moved here and got settled in. It would be trouble for you to move again.
I suddenly want leave the country to try international cuisine.
You want to leave the country? That's good.
Have a safe trip.
Older Sister?!
You're that gang... Hello, Boss.
So the other house guest is you?
Older Sister, we are destined to cross paths.
I was saying that last time. This is the second time we meet.
Doesn't that mean we are even more destined?
So hearing you talk, you must be the owner for Living Happiness #1 that my son had mentioned.
That's me.
Mom, you also know President Xu?
Yes. We talked...
Talked about some things.
That's right. We talked about some things.
But, your mom and I really hit it off.
We had a happy talk.
So Gao Mama also knows President Xu.
They really are destined.
Gao Mama, it must be fate that you're here at Living Happiness #1.
It is fate!
Older Sister, I whole heartedly welcome you to Living Happiness #1. Hope you have a wonderful stay.
Gao Mama, just be at ease and stay here.
That way, Ding Ya can be close by to take of you.
Then will you come visit me often?
Of course I will come often.
What are you looking at?
Nothing.
Gao Mama, then it's settled. You'll stay here.
Yes, I'll stay.
Mr. Xu, in the future, please take care of me.
We will take care of each other.
So you have decided to stay?
- Today?- Today.
Alright, then I'll stay too.
So Miss Tao, you won't be leaving the country then?
Because I no longer feel like leaving the country,
so I'll be staying.
That's right.
Water is sweet at home.
Why would you leave the country?
Xiao Qian's cooking skills are the best.
Whatever style cuisine you'd like to eat,
she can cook it all.
Just leave it to me, no problem.
But I'm very picky.
Xiao Qian can do it.
And, you want to see the wonders of the world? No problem!
I will prepare an entire set of DVDs on the World's Wonders for you.
So that you can watch it all at once.
You can see the world's wonders sitting at home.
Alright, then you need to do what you say.
Here... pinky promise.
Promise to do what you say.
A gentleman's promise, I will wholehearted do it for you.
Xiao Qian, Older Sister and Miss Tao are our company's very important guests.
You must take care of them well. Do you understand?
I understand.
Then, please take care of me, roommate.
I don't dare.
Let's take care of each other in the future.
That's right. Care for each other.
It's very rare that we live together in the same house.
I'll take you back to the clinic.
What happened to you? Did you hurt your foot?
Does it hurt?
It's okay, I just stepped on it. I'm okay.
I'm sorry. I was walking too fast.
Actually, you really don't need to take me back.
It's Gao Mama's first day at Living Happiness #1.
You should go back up and spend some time with her.
I'm not just taking you back.
I also have some work to do.
This work was planned before.
If I don't go, everyone will have to stop.
Is it because you don't know what to do about your mom and your goddess,
so you're using this opportunity to escape?
There's nothing that escapes your eyes.
If it was just two women, I could sweet talk a bit,
but if it's two angry women...
I'll only get blown up.
I'm in trouble.
But they both live across from you.
You can hide for a little while but you still need to face them when you go home.
That's right.
Don't worry, Xiao Qian is there.
She has an altruistic personality.
She always views other people's business as more important than her own.
She's patient, understanding, and thoughtful.
She will be able to settle the issue between Gao Mama and Miss Tao.
That's right.
Come to think of it, President Xu has a good eye for selecting people.
Finding Xiao Qian to manage Living Happiness #1 was a wise decision.
But there are times that Xiao Qian will go home.
If during those times, Gao Mama and Miss Tao start to fight again...
I think you should be firm.
How can you be like this?
On one hand you encourage me, and on the other take a stab at me.
Do we have to have second thoughts?
Isn't having second thoughts a woman's privilege?
I think you just don't want to see me happy.
Dinner is ready.
You can come eat now.
Alright.
Thank you.
Today is your first day here at Living Happiness #1.
So I made some dishes to welcome
I hope you both will like them.
It's very good.
You're so skillful.
Look. The plating is so pretty!
Really? I just don't know if it suits your taste.
It will definitely suit her taste.
Look at this hock, it looks
like their mother and daughter.
So that's how a mother cow eats grass.
You guys just started living together, so you might not be used to it.
I think if you live together longer, you'll understand more of each other's positive traits.
Then, you'll get along very happily!
With her?
Very happy?
- Impossible!- Impossible!
Dad is particularly happy today.
You came home to eat dinner with me.
Actually, a family should be like this.
When eating dinner together, we should talk and tell each other what happened that day.
Everyone can share.
This way, feelings towards each other will get better.
Are you going through male menopause?
Huh?
For the past couple of mornings, you randomly were only eating garlic bread and corn chowder.
Now you have a table full of food.
How can the two of us finish all this?
If it's not male menopause, then what is it?
I'm not going through male menopause.
It's because you are having dinner with me tonight.
And someone moved into Living Happiness #1.
And coincidentally, one of them is Gao Ding Ya, the stylist who helped you when you made the mini-film.
His mom.
- What a coincidence. -That's right.
Fate is really destined by the heavens.
Whether it is family or close friends,
it all has been arranged.
Friends?
Could it be that me and him were an arrangement?
Who are you thinking of?
It's nothing.
Then why are you smiling?
It's just that... I'm happy for you.
If you are happy, then I am happy.
If I'm happy, I'll smile.
Tong Tong, come to the company with dad to look around one day.
You're already at the age to become the successor.
I need you to understand what dad has planned for the company's future.
Dad, this is really good.
Do you want some?
It's so good.
Tong Tong, I only have you as a daughter.
If I dodn't give this company to you, then who would I give it to?
If you're not interested, then I'll give it to your future husband.
Then that means that your future husband will be chosen by me, right?
If you keep talking, then I'll go act as a tree
and I won't talk or eat with you.
Act as a tree?
That kid still wants you to act as a tree?
Didn't I have him...
You... What did you make him do?
You went to threaten him?
How could I do such a thing?
I'm too busy dealing with Living Happiness #1.
Why would I bother myself with your affairs?
Really? You're not lying?
Have you ever seen me at your theater troupe?
No...
That's right.
Why would I lie to you?
Why would I go to the theatre to threaten him?
I just went to the pizza restaurant to remind him.

Let me help you.
Thank you.
It's so late, why haven't you gone home yet?
Today Gao Mama and Sister Xiu Xiu moved in.
I was busy all day long.
And just now Sister Xiu Xiu asked me to buy some things.
Famous stars are really different.
She wanted a lot of things and they were very expensive.
I came back early. I want to surprise Xiao Qian.
Ah, found it.
Alright, I can't talk now.
Sister Xiu Xiu is waiting for these things.
Bye.
Xiao Qian, go home.
No, things from today should be finished today.
I'll go home once I'm done.
What else do you need to do? I'll do it for you.
It's okay. This is my job.
Hurry and go home.
But, Sister Xiu Qiong and Gao Mama haven't settled in yet.
It's okay. I'll take care of it.
Quickly go home, okay?
Yes, going home earlier is good.
Why are you rushing me to go home?
Don't ask so much.
Just go home, okay?
I promise that you'll thank me later.
Thank you? Why would I?
Tomorrow... Anyway, once you're home you will know.
Lin Man Man, why do you have to stay here?
Do you think that if you stay here, I can live happily?
I also don't want to be here.
If it isn't for my precious filial son,
I wouldn't wrong myself. Having to live here, the two of us seeing each other and hating each other.
You've been wronged?
Yes.
The one whose wronged should be me.
If you move back, you wouldn't be wronged.
My god, what kind of joke are you making?
As the spokesperson, I have a responsibility for the product.
I cannot let any demons, ghost or goblins affect the Living Happiness feeling.
You speak so venomously.
Demons, ghosts, and goblins...
You've always been like this.
You've always tried to make things hard for me, right?
- Make things hard for you? - Yes.
Please, you're the one whose made things hard for me.
You've never been able to accept that I'm better than you.
You're the one opposing me.
No.
It was you who kept competing with me.
Since we were born.
You haven't let go.
Fortunately, I'm a girl...
even if the adults want an arranged marriage,
I don't have to marry you.
Or else I would be too unfortunate.
I would be the unfortunate one!
We were in the same class in elementary school and in high school.
When we went to college and studied the same thing.
We still were in the same class.
What kind of fate is this?
We always got compared.
Lin Man Man was always getting 100s.
I,Tao Xiu Qiong, was always getting 0s.
What about it?
What's so amazing about being good a school?
I can't take it.
You even dare to say it.
The one who couldn't take it was me.
You flirt.
You're bad at school, so you like to trick others.
Even though you knew I was going to deliver a love letter to the male class,
you invited me to eat seaweed. You saw that there was food stuck in my teeth, and you didn't tell me.
You even had me smile at the guys!
You caused me so much embarrassment.
Gosh, it's been so long but still funny.
You...
Don't talk about me, okay?
Aren't you the same?
You're sly as a fox.
We agreed that we wouldn't participate in the talent show.
In the end, we still participated.
Are you the same?
You always break your promises!
Stop saying what I'm saying!
I'm the spokesperson, so I should choose first!
You bit me!
I bit you, so what?
You better listen closely. You are only trying out this place.
I pay to live here.
So it doesn't matter, I should be the first to choose.
You...
Let go!
I'm picking first!
I already said I'm picking first!
- Let go! - I won't let go!
- Why do you always pick what I pick? You're being unreasonable.- No, you're being unreasonable.
Don't be like this!
Come and take her away!
Get her to leave! I want to choose a room.
Calm down. Let's talk this over , okay?
I have no way of talking to her!
I also have no way of talking to her!

My... arms are too long,
and they don't have eyes.
It wasn't on purpose.
Are you a monkey? What do you mean your arms are too long?
You were always rude.
Sorry.
Gao Mama didn't do it on purpose.
Now you're like this... Does it hurt?
If it still hurts, I'll go get you a new bag.
It's okay, Gao Ma. I already have two bags.
Oh that's right. Sister Xiu Qiong, and Gao Ma...
Wait a minute.
Did you call her sister?
Even you call her sister?
Sister is just sister. What about it?
What are you going to do about it?
So, you're an older sister?
In this case, you and the kids are of the same generation.
Now if you are an older sister then, come, come...
You know what you should call me.
Come on, say it.
Lin Man Man.
What? Say it!
Why aren't you saying it?
It's getting late.
Do you want to decide on rooms?
I was just arguing with her about this.
Does arguing count as sorting it out?
What?
No... Nothing.
If it's that hard to decide, why don't we...
Since it's so hard to decide, why don't we use age to decide?
- I agree.- Okay.
Sister... you first.
Older sister?
That's right. Don't you call her older sister too?
I also call her older sister.
I am only older than you by 2 minutes.
Sister, what sister?
Have you looked at yourself? You look at least ten years older than me.
You look like my mom. How could even call me older sister?
Okay. Then... I'm like your mom, right?
Then call me "mom".
Say it.
- Say it! - Why are you picking on me?
So what if I pick on you?
Stop arguing.
Stop it...
Move out of the way.
If you're not happy, then move out.
I'm not moving out. I already paid.
Why would I move out? You're the one that wants to move.
Why would I move out?
- You're the same as before.- What?
Your personality hasn't changed at all.
Why was He Xiao Quan rushing me home?
And he even said I would thank him.
I return home, and I'm just talking to myself.
What's there to be thankful to him for?
I should not have listened to He Xiao Quan.
I wasn't even finish with my work.
How unsettling.
Gao Mama and Sister Xiu Qiong, can argue so much just over dinner.
Can He Xiao Quan handle them by himself?
I should call and check on them.
It's finally settled.
Now... It can finally be peaceful until tomorrow, right?
Jiang Xiao Qian.
- Hello.- Hello, Jiang Xiao Qian.
You're home now?
That's right, I'm home now.
That's good.
Don't worry, I'm here.
I am worried. That's why I called.
Can you do it by yourself?
I can.
Sister Xiu Qiong and Gao Mama have both settled down?
It's done. Don't worry.
You're that great?
Actually, I'm not.
When they were fighting over rooms just now, they almost lost their rationality
and they forgot I existed. I almost got...
What did they do to you?
Nothing, in the end they used rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets what room.
And Sister Xiu Qiong won.
Which room did she choose? Was it the one I picked out for her?
No, she chose the other one.
How did it turn out like that?
I looked at all information and reports regarding her.
Those are colors and styles that she's always liked.
Her house is like that too!
I was actually very surprised.
I thought that maybe she wanted to experience something different.
Yeah... But this outcome makes me...
Wife? I've come back.
Hubby! Why are you home a day early?
Surprise!
Xiao Qian, since you're husband is home, go spend time with him.
Then I'll leave it with you. Bye bye.
Bye
Your husband is home early to give you a surprise.
Now you should be happy.
Hubby, didn't you say that to prepare for this vacation you had lots to do?
How were you able to come home early?
Because I wanted to give my wife a surprise.
- Do you like it?- I like it.
- Hubby.- Yes?
Hubby, actually there are a lot of things I'd like to tell you.
Alright. We have all night anyway.
Actually, what I'd really like to talk about has to do with He Xiao Quan.
He Xiao Quan? What about him?
He used to be my ex-boyfriend.
Huh?
Oh.
But isn't he together with Gao Ding Ya?
It's a long story.
It was all a misunderstanding.
They both actually like women.
Oh, so they aren't gay?
So if they aren't gay, what does that have to do with us?
Why were you in such a rush to tell me?
Because I don't want to hide anything from you.
I want to tell you tell you every thing as soon as I can.
I don't want you to hear it from someone else.
Also, I didn't tell you before because...
I know. It's because you thought your ex-boyfriend was gay.
It's embarrassing.
You were embarrassed to tell me, right?
My first love, who pretend to like girls but failed to in the end.
Hearing it like that, I seem very tragic.
It's not. You're thinking too much.
Anyway, I don't want you to have any misunderstandings.
I won't misunderstand.
I believe you 100%.
Thank you.
Hubby.
I really love you.
Anything else? Anything else you want to tell me?
Yi Qing... She has a boyfriend.
Yi Qing has a boyfriend?
Ignore it. Keep talking.
Maybe work needs to find you.
Do you want to answer?
I don't want to answer. They probably want me to go back and work overtime.
I already said that tonight I'm spending time with you.
Alright, then don't answer.
Oh right, Yi Qing has a boyfriend?
That's right. And you won't be able to guess who it is. It's...
Who is it?
It's your boss.
He keeps calling you. It must be something important.
You better hurry and answer.
I'm not answering. Ignore him.
He must want me to work more.
I said already that I'm spending tonight with you.
He must have something important to say. That's why he keeps calling.
Just answer.
Then I'll answer.
Xiao Qian, spend some time with your husband.
Tomorrow, you don't need to come in to Living Happiness #1.
I'll take care of it.
Thank you, Fortune Master He.
Hi.
Could you please make me a glass of green juice?
No sugar. No milk.
Sure. No problem.
- Could you please...- Gao Mama.
Could you please make me one as well?
As long as it tastes good, you can you put anything in it.
Also, could you see if there are small cookies or treats?
Sure. Xiao Qian's are pretty good.
- Really? - Yes, she has some cookies here. I'll go prepare it.
- Okay, thank you. - Just wait a moment.
Do you know how old you are?
Do you know that your metabolism is slowing down?
And all you want to do is eat, eat, eat until you're full and then go to sleep, get up and eat some more.
Don't you know that you'll get fat and become stupid.
You don't need to worry about me so much.
Becoming fat and stupid, how do you know?
Good health is the most important.
If you're living in this world, but can't happily eat and drink,
then let me ask you, what is the point of living?
Don't be scared, people say there is always a way out.
How long you live is predetermined.
The more you're afraid, the more likely it will happen.
Huh.
Existence
What is existence?
In every person's heart, they have something they want to pursue...
and they also have their own unique loved treasures that exist.
It could be a trophy won from a childhood competition,
or it could be a photo.
♫ But missing someone to care for ♫
Or perhaps it could be a tool normally used for work.
It could even be a book,
or chasing your own dreams.
A Tree's Wish
But no matter what, all these valued things, whether it's something that brings happiness
makes you worry, or causes you trouble. It is an important part in one's sense of existence.
♫ Forcing myself to do it again and again ♫
What does Tao Xiu Qiong mean by existence?
Is it her place in society that gives meaning or value to existence?
Hmm, what does she want to film a documentary?
♫ I just want to be in love, I want to be dazed ♫
♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫

Wow.
Morning.
Morning, what's up?
Hey.
Brother, what are you doing?
There's something unusual going on. There must be a demon.
Gao Ding Ya made breakfast.
He either wants something from us, or something bad will happen.
You're not allowed to eat.
It's fine. I ate it last time.
So, that's why he refuses to leave.
Oh, that sounds about right.
What demon? Can't you speak nicely.
This is a gratitude breakfast.
Gratitude for what?
Last night I worked until midnight,
and I heard Xiao Qian left early yesterday
and you took care of everything at Living Happiness #1.
To thank you for taking care of my mom and my goddess.
I purposely woke up early to make this breakfast for you.
Is that right? Ok, let's eat.
Oh yes, what about Gao Mama and Sister Xiu Qiong's breakfast?
Right here. What do you think? Pretty good, right?
Aren't you treating us too differently?
Oh please, one is my mother and the other is my goddess.
Of course it should be of the highest standard.
Yes, yes.
One, who is the mom of King Kong,
one is the ferocious fighting lady.
It can only describe it as spectacular.
Let me ask you. What is going on between your mom and Sister Xiu Qiong?
They are like two mountain goats who want to cross a bridge at the same time,
but neither want to let the other pass.
Instead they force the other into the river.
It's fine that their aggression is off the charts,
but now it impacts this fish in the river. (T/N: Referring to himself)
I'm not very sure either.
I asked my mom yesterday, but she wouldn't say anything.
Doesn't matter. Today you are on your own.
- What do you mean on my own? - You don't have to go work.
Yes, I finally get a day off.
Great, then you can wait on Gao Mama and your hostile goddess.
Huh?
Why is it me?
Because Xiao Qian's husband came back to spend time with her for White Valentine's Day.
So I gave her a day off to spend with her husband.
Oh, I know what you mean.
You want the couple to have time to be intimate with one another.
With her husband's love nourishing her
then she wouldn't be so easily angered, right?
Don't talk to loud, my brother is here.
Oh come on, how old is he? Look he even has facial hair.
The 18+ sensor, is long gone.
You!
You can't hit me.
Childish.
Ok, stop bickering with me.
I'm going to deliver breakfast to my mom and goddess
and to kindly wait on them.
Okay, Hurry up.
- Ok, bye. - See you.
What's wrong?
Hm? Nothing.
Did President Xu come to see you?
How did you-
Were you the one who told President Xu where I work?
President Xu is eager to protect his daughter.
He said that he wanted to talk to you.
So what happened?
He told me to change Xu Tong's character.
He won't allow me to have her portray a tree.
Portray a tree?
Weren't you modifying Romeo and Juliet?
Why portray trees?
I...
Are you using this fake practice to force out Xu Tong?
I originally wanted her to withdraw from the group.
Who knew...
Xiao Kang, you're a jerk.
I thought you were misunderstood, but it was true!
You are really abusing your power and picking on new members.
How dare you dodge!
I thought you were serious about theatre. I can't believe...
Brother, I am serious about theatre.
You have seen her acting.
No other theatre troupe would accept her.
It's just afterwards, her determination touched me.
I have seriously considered letting her join the troupe.
Then what do you plan on doing?
Have you thought about how Xu Tong would feel if she found out?
I'm trying to think of a plan right now.
- Brother! - Eating and drinking will affect your thoughts.
You need to think clearly about this.
Brother, I am doing this for the troupe.
You can not like her acting, but that doesn't give you the right to bully her.
Like you just said, her determination touched you.
Then will I need to retract my order for her to portray a tree.
But doesn't that mean I admit to bullying?
It's your own fault.
President Xu only wanted to talk to you.
It was a talk that had a feeling of oppression.
I believe that President Xu doesn't want to use bullying to influence you.
He just want you to understand the frame of mind of someone who cares deeply about their daughter.
Okay, I will think about it.
Then go face the wall and reflect, doing a handstand.
Brother!
You need to be punished for your mistakes.
Fine.
I'm going to head out first.
~ Preview ~Why would his boss urgently call him to return to work when he's on vacation?
Don't you think that's weird?
Your face doesn't have clues. Only I understand the feeling of sadness.

♫ Are you smiling? Are you crying? ♫
♫ I can't see ♫
♫ You want to break free, You want freedom ♫
♫ Aren't you tired? ♫
♫ Your expression, Can you just ♫
♫ let me find some clues? ♫
♫ Don't be afraid, Please hold my hand ♫
♫ Smiling with a mask on ♫
♫ Pretending you're strong, but you're actually more vulnerable ♫
♫ Don't let your face be filled with pain anymore ♫
♫ Just let it go ♫
♫ Let happy tears flow ♫
♫ Have sadness be completely removed ♫
♫ This world is waiting to be inspired by you ♫
♫ Everywhere in this world ♫
♫ is inspirational ♫
