Does it imply that they want to repress me with talismans?
Hey, how come Xiao Qian isn't here yet?
She sent a message saying she'll be late since something's going on at home.
Let's make breakfast by ourselves.
Why don't I make breakfast for you all?
No, that's fine.
A good person should follow rules and not go over the limit.
Go over the limit...
Thank you for your correction.
What I mean is that... if I want to eat, I should make it myself.
Let's not bother others and take advantage of them.
How about this? You help me make my breakfast.
Okay.
Don't be so unloyal. How can you eat the breakfast she makes?
Hey, you normally are smart.
Please, you don't know how to accept opportunities.
Aren't we suppose to get revenge for Xiao Qian? So let her do it.
Then we can make it hard for her after.
Oh.
You're indeed smart.
You set her up for this.
Let's see how good she is.
This is a Spanish quiche.
There's a lot of protein in here.
Also there's a lot of vegetables like spinach, tomatoes,
and very fine starch, potatoes.
Because I know Gao Mama,
you like meat right? So I added in some turkey.
Miss Tao, please have a piece as well.
The main point is that it is not high in calories.
My God. Just for this one, she has won against Xiao Qian.
Don't care about whether she wins or loses. Didn't you say to cause her trouble?
Hurry up and give her a hard time. Cause her trouble.
How do I mess with her when she's made it so perfectly?
It doesn't have much flavour! It's too bland!
I knew that's what you would say. Thus, I made this tartar sauce.
Here's some ketchup and salt too.
But to be honest, it's not good for older people to eat such strong flavors.
I know you all want to revenge for Xiao Qian,
but we are all women. Why give each other a hard time, right?
Since you don't want to give each other hard time, why do you go to tempt her husband?
That's right. You obviously knew that he was married,
but you still became his mistress. You obviously did it on purpose.
That's why I say monogamy doesn't match human nature.
That's marriage. That's getting married. It was supposed to be two people coming together.
What do you mean that it doesn't match human nature?
Among so many people in this world, how would you know the person you marry is the one that matches you the most?
That's why a couple needs to live together after they get married.
They need to adjust to one another to live well.
What if I get married and I find someone who is better for me?
Should I choose to give up then? If I were at a restaurant,
and the dish isn't good,
then can I not go to a different restaurant?
What are you talking about? What does marriage have to do with a restaurant?
Life is full of choices.
We live to face situations. Just like Gao Mama.
You can keep choosing too. It's just that you keep choosing not to marry again.
Hey! Say something!
She just said marriage, doesn't match human nature, and is like eating in a unsuitable restaurant.
It's your turn. Say something. She's wrong, right?
I think...
what she said...
is not wrong.
This time I finally brought back Mom's pickled plums. Brother must be happy.
I should separate them into different containers, or else he will finish them all at once.
Hey! Hey! Wait!
I know who sent you. I'll walk myself.
Hurry up! I have to hurry home.
Hey, I said I can walk myself.
Fine.
Be careful with my pinky!
I've already told you I know who it is.
President Xu.
Oh no. I thought it was Xu Tong trying to show off again.
What's in your hands?
This? These are the plums my mom pickled herself.
Your mom made it?
Very good. Put it down.
Hey careful!
May I ask why President Xu specifically called me here today?
Congratulations, you have received the ticket for a top qualifications competition.
What you'll have to face is a test of strength, endurance,
and intelligence.
A qualifications competition?
Doubtful? You should quickly thank President Xu for giving you the opportunity to enter this competition.
Say thank you!
Thank you, President Xu.
I am Director Li. He's President Xu.
Thank you, President Xu.
I'm announcing that... the competition officially starts now.
Hey, hey!
Where are we going?
Boss, actually I also want to enter this top qualifications competition.
Pretend I didn't say that. I'm going to go make the preparations.
First round, start! Let's start, go!
Faster, faster, faster.
How are you going to perform Romeo and Juliet like this? You have to have strength. You want to act in theater, don't you?
Here, here. The first one. Let's go back.
Faster. Did you not eat? He Xiao Kang,
are you a man? How are you going to pass our qualifications competition like this?
Hurry up, hurry up! Don't act like you're dead.
Go, go, go. The third one.
Yeah, go back, go back.
- I can't do this. - What do you mean you can't? Go, go, go!
I'm telling you, dropping me equals dropping Miss.
♫ I'm slowly getting sick of the scenery by the sides of the road ♫
♫ Thinking of how excited I was before starting, blood pumping ♫
♫ The wind outside is getting colder and colder ♫
♫ The world has become different ♫
♫ Are my friends persevering? ♫
♫ Are the people I love still finding the right person? ♫
♫ The direction of the wind has changed again ♫
Hey.
Sorry! Don't blame me for treating you badly.
Here. That's no good.
♫ Will you come with me to find, The only starry sky in the blackness? ♫
Ah!
♫ As time flies by like this ♫
♫ And you? And you? Would you remember the wind from the year? ♫
Not bad. As for becoming my son-in-law,
He Xiao Kang, you're considered eligible.
Son-in-law? Me?
♫ With a hesitant me ♫
Son-in-law Certificate. Strength, endurance and intelligence: Passing
Take it.
- This is? - This is what I, Xu Jian Chang, attested to.
A son-in-law certificate.
Wait a second. President Xu,
I admit that I indeed like your daughter,
but I haven't confirmed whether Xu Tong also likes me.
You're saying "son-in-law" right now. Isn't that too soon?
♫ Blue skies and green grass are a child's fairy tale ♫
This is the goal you have to pursue.
If you cannot pursue my daughter, I'll warn you right now.
I'm personally very, very, very,
annoyed by people who fail.
♫ Put down that stone ♫
♫ Just following the road ♫
Calling my son.
How come he's not picking up?
Annoying.
Not picking up? Then I'll keep calling.
It's ringing! If he's inside, then why isn't he picking up?
Gao Mama? What's wrong?
Oh! Xiao Quan!
It's nothing. I'm just calling Ding Ya.
I don't know what he's doing, but he's not answering my call.
Is it urgent? Do you need help?
There's nothing urgent.
It's just... my mood is a bit down. I want to talk to him.
Hey, you just came back.
You didn't... just get off work, did you?
Yes, I stayed up all night at the office.
Uh, Ding Ya might be still sleeping. Let's go inside.
Oh, okay, okay.
- Come in. - Thank you, thank you.
Please come in, Gao Mama.
Please get some slippers.
Wow, what happened here?
Why is the living room so messy? Is it a war?
Gao Mama please wear these.
Aiyo!
Who did this?
Or maybe he went out?
Went out?
He is so terrible, already grown up but still so messy.
It's all right. I'm sorry.
That person has no sense of propriety.
There's no need, Gao Mama. I'll clean it up.
Just sit there and wait for Ding Ya to come back.
- Just sit? - Yes, please sit. Don't worry.
That's good too.
I was just looking for a place to sit.
It's better than facing that witch at home.
I'm going to make coffee. Do you want anything to drink?
No need. It's not like we don't know each other.
You can take a nap if you want.
You worked overtime. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine sitting here alone.
I'm not sleepy. How about this?Let me change first and then I'll wait for him with you.
That's good.
- You can take your time. - Okay.
So you slept here? Gao Ding Ya.
Huh? You're back?
Not just me. Your mom-
Uh... Who's that sleeping beside you?
Beside me? It's just me.
You're sure?
Who is it? How noisy!
Xia Yi Qing!
Is someone killing a pig? What happened?
- No, no. It's nothing.- It's nothing?
Yi Qing?

♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫
How did it become like this?
How did we sleep together?
What happened yesterday? How did this happen?
Xia Yi Qing, how could you make a mistake like this?
Weren't you already planning on going home?
.
Hey! I'm going home now.
I'm going home.
Huh?
I'll take you home.
So heavy!
This way. The door is that way.
The door is here.
You first.
Open the door. Why can't I open it?
Wait, let me put on my shoes.
Ah!
I remember seeing her out.
Then what happened?
How did we both get on the bed?
- Ugh! - Son.
Gao Ding Ya.
What happened?
Your expression looks like you've seen the apocalypse.
Aren't you two boyfriend and girlfriend?
Then a boyfriend and girlfriend being together
is very natural.
It was going to happen sooner or later. Oh, it's hot!
Have some tea.
I can't, I can't. I'll get internal injuries. I need to laugh!
You don't know. This is
the happiest thing that's happened to me since I woke up this morning.
You need to start saving money
to buy a house.
Why are you suddenly mentioning this?
You've already slept together.
I think you should just go all the way.
Then of course you need to buy a house and prepare to get married.
Be careful.
You should show Yi Qing some accountability.
What do you mean accountability?
Isn't it too early to get married?
It's not! How could marriage be too early? Getting married is taking responsibility.
This... This...
This, this. Okay, stop.
This situation will just
be done like this. What I say goes, okay?
Hey.
Come.
Sit over there.
Yi Qing.
Gao Mama's darling treasure.
Don't worry. For the situation with Ding Ya,
Gao Mama will help you make decisions.
Gao Mama, I think
that this has all happened so suddenly.
We still need to think about
what we should do for our next step.
The next step...
I'll take care of it.
Don't worry. Yi Qing,
actually I
already expected that this day would come.
I already planned ahead
and went to a very luxurious gold shop
and bought gold jewelry for you.
Yi Qing, then,
Gao Mama is going to that shop to ask the owner
if I can pick it up early.
Ah, Gao Mama, you don't need to do this.
- This-- Mom, this is too fast.
How is this fast? Don't be embarrassed.
It's not like you're getting married tomorrow. But that... Aiyo!
It's so bothersome. We'll have to do things one at a time. Slowly.
You don't need to be nervous. Come, come.
My darling treasure, here.
Drink this hangover tea.
Okay? I'm going.
I'll be back soon. Take care of your wife.
Gao Mama!
Son, be obedient!
I'll be back soon!
I'm getting the jewelry, bye!
Muah!
Why didn't you block her?
How am I supposed to block her?
Hey. Where did this white Java sparrow come from?
Why was it under my desk?
- Tent.- Tent.
T-Tent?
Yes, one of those fortune-telling tents.
You guys didn't bring back one of those divine, fortune-telling birds back, did you?
Uh...
Hey, hey! Where are you guys going?
To go figure out what really happened.
We meet again.
Hey, Xiao Kang.
Ge, these two...
Where are they going carrying that bird?
I have no idea.
What's going on?
Is there something you want to say to me?
Son-in-law CertificatePassed
Son-in-law certificate?
What is this?
President Xu gave this to me this morning.
He said he acknowledges me as his son-in-law.
However, he requires that I must make Xu Tong like me
and really love me.
If you sincerely like Xu Tong,
this certificate
can be seen as a type of encouragement.
You aren't opposed?
With feelings, you're the one who should be making decisions.
But as your older brother,
I still must remind you.
According to President Xu's logic, unless Xu Tong didn't want you,
you are already part of their family.
In other words, this relationship
is the first one in your life and the last one too.
You have to think about it clearly.
Hey, Ge!
Then for you,
was it because of this that you didn't want to only have one relationship, so you broke up with your first love?
Change the bed sheets.
Okay.
Ge, do you smell it?
It smells good. Xiao Qian Jie is making cake.
Oh, right!
Bring those pickled plums to Xiao Qian.
I don't want to.
Early this morning, I was taken away by President Xu the moment I got off the bus.
I'm so tired. I'm going to rest in my room.
Then why not this, I'll help you figure out
how to pursue Xu Tong. You just help me bring the pickled plums over.
Okay?
Ge, you've only had one relationship.
I don't have much confidence in the advice you give me.
I'm going to my room.
Go stand in the corner for half an hour. Upside down.
I don't want to. I didn't do anything wrong.
You're independent now? He Xiao Kang!
Oh!
Why is there a dinosaur in my room?
Huh?
Wow... What a big dinosaur.
That's not the point.
It's pretty cute.

Coming!
Here. An express delivery.
- Thank you. - Here.
Right now I'm testing a new cake flavor. Do you want to try it?
It's over.
I need to work out a lot after eating your cakes.
I've calculated the calories, or else Xiu Qiong Jie won't eat it at all.
On the topic of exercising, I've been thinking... Shouldn't I try to work on a new hobby?
Huh? You're interested in exercising?
What kind of tone is that? Before, I wanted to try the IRONMAN triathlon.
You? The IRONMAN triathlon is very hard.
I don't need to win any awards. I just want to try it
and see if I can do it.
Trying out new things is good.
That's why. Should I start with running?
Yes.
Sorry. Excuse me.
Oh, right! I discovered that the room has some weird talismans. Can you help me take care of it?
Okay.
It seems like they've already been discovered.
Using talismans... Since she's not holding back her criticisms, you shouldn't be offended.
I know. I just think I'm being a bit childish.
Xiao Qian, what I'm curious about is can you really live under the same roof as her?
I think so.
No, what I mean is... Don't you feel uncomfortable?
You know?
♫ Here, fluttering around in the air. Isn’t it great? ♫
♫ Sliding down the rainbow. Hang on tight! ♫
Why isn't there a tent? It was clearly here!
I also remember...
Yes, I remember now too. There was definitely a tent.
There was also a fortune teller.
Taxi! Why isn't there a taxi?
I'm looking! There's no taxi anywhere.
Hey! I see a yellow thing over there!
- Hey! Hey! - And wearing high heels...
Huh?
Okay. I'll carry you. I'll carry you!
Then are you going to charge me?
No. It's free for the pretty girl.
Alright, come on.
What did you eat?
I'm ready.
Let's go!
What?
Fortune teller.
What?
Do you know? Fortune telling is also a type of psychological consulting.
You come to me to get your fortune told. I look at you.
I'll just say what they want to hear.
So it's also a type of therapy.
♫ Let’s take one more step, shall we? ♫
What are you doing with that face?
He's competing with you. Come on, let's go challenge him.
- Challenge! - Hurry, hurry!
You walk so slowly! Hurry up and get on!
Alright!
Go inside.
Hmm. We want our fortune told.
Don't you see I'm already closed? Closed.
He admitted defeat.
You lost without a battle. You're not a man.
In my life I'm only annoyed by two sentences. One of them is that I'm not a man.
Alright. I'll help you guys tell your future.
Okay! Fortune telling!
Wow!
This symbol shows
the peach blossom ferry crossing.
What it means is
the course of your feelings for each other is rugged and is constantly in crisis.
But in the end, it will fulfill a long-cherished wish
and you'll come together as one.
Him and me, it's impossible.
You're saying nonsense! You're lying! Stealing jobs!
The second sentence that I hate most in my life is when people say I'm scamming them for money!
You two are drunk. Don't say nonsense. Don't come here to nitpick.
You're the one who's talking nonsense. Give us our money back!
You didn't give me any money. What am I supposed to give back?
I don't care! Give me back my money!
- Then give me money first! - Give me my money back!
- Give me my money back! - You didn't give me any money! How am I supposed to give it back?
- You're a swindler! Give me back my money! - Give me money first and then we'll talk!
So you took his bird?
No, to be correct, the me then wasn't me.
Then what do we do now?
We asked so many people. Everyone said they didn't see that tent.
Then what we saw was...
Hey, don't say such scary things, okay?
Maybe he only shows up once a year. Isn't it like this in movies?
So then what do we do with this bird?
You took it, so you're responsible.
Besides, you don't like sleeping by yourself.
This is perfect. It counts as a life. With it accompanying you, you won't need to come to me anymore.
Now there's an answer to where this bird came from,
but it doesn't explain how we could get back home, and
ended up together.
Yeah. We already walked all the way here.
Dinosaur?
Star Wars!
I helped you defeat the enemy! I'm the strongest!
Without my help, you just escape...
You wouldn't be able to escape that fortune teller!
I can do it! I'm the strongest!
I'm a dinosaur slayer!
- Look at my lightsaber! - How strong! How strong!
No. I'll bite you! It hurts! I'll get you when I turn around!
Ahh! How scary!
I'll bite you! I'll squeeze you!
Argh!
Gao Ding Ya!
Come on!
Flying attack!
- You're done! - Bite!
Your sword is gone! Sword-master, your sword is gone!
Gao Ding Ya!
You've lost!
Actually, I really like Jedis.
The dinosaur is really cute.
So the situation...
Happened like this.
We're both adults.
That's right.
- This situation... - I agree.
Let's not drink that much in the future.
I promise.
I have things to do. I'll be leaving first.

This bird is still in my possession. How can I pretend nothing happened?
Xiao Qian, I didn't mean to make you feel awkward on purpose.
I just care about you and I'm worried about you.
I know that you would say that because you're worried about me.
I just never thought so many people knew about the situation between Shao Qi and me.
In the moment, I just didn't know how to react.
It's the same taste as back then. It's so good.
Has He Mama thought of selling them online? I'd be the first to order.
I know you like them, but since they're a salty product, you can't eat too much.
I know they're salty and you can't eat too much, but it's hard to stop.
Xiao Qian, I have some things that... I haven't told you.
What things?
Uh... Actually, that night when I was eating with Ding Ya and Yi Qing...
Yi Qing told me that you guys were eating.
That night when we were eating, we bumped into Shao Qi.
He was taking Liu Tian Ling into a hotel, and when he was getting the key at the desk...
I... I thought that he was betraying you, so I punched him very hard.
No wonder he had a bruise on his face that night. I asked him about it, but he said that he bumped into something accidentally.
Later, he explained that he was first escorting Liu Tian Ling back to her hotel
and then he was going to pick you up from work.
I thought I was being rash, so I apologized to him.
I never thought that those two really did something unforgivable towards you.
So that hit wasn't for nothing.
No wonder he thought that we had something between us.
If it was because of me, I'm sorry.
You don't need to apologize.
You were just venting your anger for a good friend.
The one who's imagining things and the person who did something wrong is him, so you don't need to apologize.
Let me borrow this and give it back as a gift. Thank you for caring about me.
Thanks.
It's good.
Oh, right. You want a divorce. It's not because of Liu Tian Ling, right?
Actually, Shao Qi's affair was a tipping point.
But what made me make up my mind was our recent interactions.
It was making both of us very tired.
Using an old phrase, you can say that
we separated because we understood each other.
I don't think you need to decide so quickly.
Give each other some time and space. Making a decision after considering everything isn't bad either.
Neither of us is the perfect one in this relationship.
It was just at the perfect time, so we got together.
This marriage was like the relationship of the couple you see in the furniture commercial.
Living in a picturesque and beautiful house, without any worries.
But commercials are only 30 seconds.
A person's real life is 24-hours.
Hearing me say all this, is this making you afraid to get married?
Of course. I don't even dare to fall in love now.
That's the best.
You've really grown up.
I guess people need to suffer a lot of pain and setbacks to grow up.
No. It should be said like this: After a person has suffered a lot of pain and setbacks,
being able to courageously face it and bravely continue on,
that is really growing up.
That's all that's left?
Then... What about Gao Mama and Xiu Qiong Jie?
I unknowingly ate so much. What do I do?
You're laughing?
This means that the real Jiang Xiao Qian has returned. How can I not be happy?
But being so selfish like this, wouldn't friends be annoyed?
If they're a real friend, they'll want to say "Good."
"I'll have my mom send some more so you can eat until you're scared of them, eat until you're fat."
Then it's a promise.
- Then I'm going to finish it. - Eat.
You eat too.
How sour!
- I'll save one for you. - Okay.
.
I probably ate about 20.
Yi Qing!
Zi Zi, you're finally here!
What's wrong? What happened? You rarely ask me to hurry.
Didn't you tell me that you're learning hypnosis?
Yes.
Then can you help me? From 9pm last night to 9:05am this morning...
That's not right. Until today at noon's memories, can you erase them all?
Huh? This... This is too difficult.
A person's brain isn't a computer hard drive. How can I just erase it just because you want me to?
What happened to you?
Help me think of an idea. See if there's any way to erase memories.
I don't know. Like an electric shock?
Or jumping into a river? I'll accept any method.
Hey! If there's something going on, just talk about it. Don't be so stubborn.
Aiyo. Not knowing what happened is better.
Why did we have to go find the truth? I remember it now.
Who else can help me?
Birdy... What do I do?
If we didn't find your fortune telling owner,
we wouldn't be depending on each other now, would we?
Hey. Why don't you snore when you sleep? Plus you sleep with your eyes open. How scary.
But then again, are you a male bird or a female bird?
I don't want to interact with a male bird all day. There's already too many men here.
How do you tell?
It's only been one night. Why does it feel like everything's been turned upside down?
Turned upside down? You're exaggerating.
We just gained a bird.
It's not just the fact that you suddenly have a bird.
Did you know that my room suddenly turned into Star Wars and there's now a lightsaber?
There's also suddenly a dinosaur.
What? We went to your room?
We?
Who's "we"?
Just me and...
Oh! I got it. That girl with the short hair who was hurrying out with you.
What did you do in my room?
Oh, sorry! Mr. Clean, please don't be angry. I really didn't mean to.
Because I don't even remember going to your room.
Ding Ya Ge, not everyone does cosplay at home.
Even if they did cosplay, who would want to be this kind of animal?
The point is you've done such a huge thing,
yet you've forgotten it all!
I really... I really don't remember it.
Okay.
Then let me ask you,
what were you guys doing, wearing a dinosaur costume?
It's better if you don't know.
- Ding Ya Ge... - I know. I know I shouldn't have gone into your area.
I promise I'll help you clean everything from top to bottom, okay?
I can clean up by myself,
but I want you to solve a very serious and critical problem.
What problem?
Let me ask you,
how do you get a girl to quickly fall in love with a guy?
Quickly?
Oh... Looks like your heart has been completely captured by that mob boss' daughter.
But do you really dare to be President Xu's son-in-law?I really don't get it. You don't want to reconsider?
It's complicated. Ding Ya Ge, no need to say any more. Hurry up and tell me the secret technique.
Okay. To quickly win a woman over,
the first important step is
humor. If you can get a girl to smile for you, then you are at least passing the minimum standard.
- Humor? It's just that simple?- Yes.
No, it's not easy at all.
Wanting to make someone laugh is already very difficult. Add on
not being vulgar, and being tactile. Being able to seamlessly incorporate it into a conversation
is the most difficult skill.
Humorous?
~Preview~Have a cup of coffee with me.
If it's just talking about work-
It has to do with Jiang Xiao Qian. Do you want to hear it?
Your face doesn't have clues. Only I understand the feeling of sadness.

♫ Let happy tears flow ♫
♫ Have sadness be completely removed ♫
♫ This world is waiting to be inspired by you ♫
♫ Everywhere in this world ♫
♫ is inspirational ♫
The Love Song
