Here.
Have the medicine.
I want some apples.
Try and be a little more arrogant.
Here.
I was fighting for you.
Where else can you find such a loyal friend?
I'm a rare animal, okay?
You should cherish it.
You know you're a rare animal. You should be more law-abiding.
You're lucky that Mi Te won't sue you.
The reason isn't on their side to sue.
But...this isn't Mi Te's style.
Why aren't they suing me?
I told them that if they sue you for assault,
I will sue them for slander.
That restaurant has CCTV,
plus Mi Te has a lot of things that can't be brought to light.
Not bad, using this trick.
Well done.
That's why I'm begging you to not be so impulsive next time.
There's no choice.
No one can bully my brother.
Right, your allergy seems pretty serious.
They just barely touched you and you fainted.
Yes. You don't know that your brother is that weak.
Shouldn't you let me stay here and take care of me?
Don't even think about it.
All I know is I treat you like a treasure,
and you treat me like ice.
My life's hard.
Can you get my phone?
Who's Xiu Xiu?
It says there's a notification from her fan page.
- Is it a new notification? - Yeah.
Open it for me.
Here.
Who is she?
You don't know who she is?
She's my idol!
Every stylist has a goddess.
My goddess is Tao Xiu Qiong.
Tao Xiu Qiong?
- Do you know her now? Ah, yeah.
She was the person whom I most wanted to work with when I first entered the industry.
But unfortunately she already left the entertainment circle.
It says she's preparing for something.
Could it be a fan sign event?
Then I will tell her that I want to be her stylist.
You should treat your allergy.
Otherwise people will look down on you as a stylist.
That's humorous.
Whoa.
This waist...is short 0.5 inches.
Even though I'm not satisfied, it's still acceptable.
It's better than that Lin Man Man 100 times.
No, it should be 1000 times.
She's really too exaggerated.
When I stand next to her,
I don't know if people think that she's my mom.
I really don't understand, there was nothing going on, why marry?
Now every time she opens or closes her mouth it's about her son.
Now she's in the kitchen everyday.
It's strange if she doesn't get old and ugly.
Like me,
I'm free.
Really beautiful.
Oh my god.
1,2,3,4, it's okay.
Thank goodness for my fast reaction.
Otherwise if I actually fell to my death, no one would know.
What am I thinking?
No. I need to get myself together.
I can't be like Lin Man Man.
Spend my life on someone else. Becoming a old grandmother is bad enough,
I don't want to be a great old grandmother.
No. I need to get myself together.
Ow, my leg.
Wei Wei, you're amazing.
Really amazing.
Wei Wei,
your mom and dad just got off work.
They will be coming home soon. You can only play for five minutes.
Ten minutes.
You can't bargain.
We pinky promised.
Didn't you say that you wouldn't let your parents know that I let you play video games?
If they know they will be mad.
Okay.
Wei Wei, you're so obedient.
You listen to me very well.
After five minutes I will take it away.
I'll cut some fruits for you to eat now, okay?
Mhm.
Wei Wei, you're really obedient, you've put it away already.
Wei Wei listens the best.
Here, have some fruit.
You have a fork.
How could you use your hands?
Your hands are cold.
Are you cold?
Here, here.
Wear this.
- I don't want to wear it, it's hot. - What do you mean it's hot?
Your hands are cold.
- Wear it. - I don't want to!
How can I help you wear it if you're like this?
Please, wear it.
I don't want to wear it! - Mom!
What are you doing?
I'm helping Wei Wei wear a sweater.
I don't want to wear it.
If he doesn't feel cold, don't force him to wear it.
Can you please not force people to do what you want?
It's really not good.
I...I held his hand and it was very cold. I was afraid he would catch a cold.
If he feels cold he will wear it himself.
Ting Yu taught him like that.
We want him to learn how to be independent.
You really don't need to care about so much.
Oh.
Okay, I understand.
If he doesn't want to wear it then let it be.
Right, I just cut these fruits.
Remember to eat them with Wei Wei.
- Okay? - Okay.
Wei Wei, good boy. If you don't feel cold then don't wear it.
There's a serious flu that's spreading around.
What if Wei Wei catches it and needs to get quarantined or hospitalized?
That's why I told Wei Wei to wear an extra layer.
I'm just worried, not that I care too much.
I also know that we should let children be more independent.
But Wei Wei...he's still young.
He's such a young child. How independent can he be?
Is it that once someone gets older, their words have less meaning?
I'm just worried for my grandson and yet I get scolded for it.
Fried fritters, quiche,
onigiri and soya bean drink.
I got it. Please be rest assured.
Please, what have you done to make me feel rest assured?
That's true.
Come back as soon as possible.
Okay.
Good morning.
Both of you are awake now?
These are the biscuits I made this morning. Please take care of me.
You made these this morning? It's 8 now. What time did you wake up?
I woke up before the sun rose. I made a lot.
I wanted to be friendly with the neighbors.
You don't like biscuits?
No. I can eat it for breakfast.
- I made coffee, would you like a cup? - Okay.
Hey, wait.
What country eats biscuits for breakfast? What about my fritters?
Okay, okay. Biscuits are the best for breakfast!
Coffee is good too.
Let's go inside.
Here, coffee.
It's good! Miss, your skills aren't bad.
Thank you.
Is something bothering you?
How did you know?
I've known you for a long time.
When you're not in a good mood, you would bake biscuits.
It's because of Living Happy #1.
Up until now, no one has interviewed us.
I'm really afraid of disappointing Mr. Xu.
Also, my husband was really rooting for me,
I really don't want to disappoint him.
Then did you try
to do some PR or advertisements?
I have. I made a fan club.
But other than Yi Qing and I,
no one else has joined.
Don't be so disappointed right now.
You can find a model. It's really popular to do that now.
- Isn't that right Xiao Quan? - Yeah.
If you have a model to represent you, it's much more effective.
Really?
It's best to find a popular person. Someone really famous.
Someone who fits in with Living Happy #1's image.
An idol-like person like
the single Tao Xiu Qiong.
She's really famous.
She has a story and appeal.
If you really decide to use her, she fits in well.
She can represent Living Happy #1 well.
It's true. If you use Tao Xiu Qiong,
I will give you a discount of 50% for styling her.
That's great! Then I'll discuss this with Mr. Xu right away.
Thank you for the coffee.
What Miss Xia said should be right.
Excuse me, who are you looking for?
I...
He Xiao Quan.
What's your problem? We, Mi Te, are the ones who got the case.
You helped Gao Ding Ya steal the case
and used a dirty trick.
You made us lose the contract.
Is competing fairly for a case a dirty trick?
Is using your own skill a dirty trick?
The case was originally Gao Ding Ya's.
You were the ones who lowered the price to steal it from him.
- You- - Go back and tell your boss
that securing a case is a skill.
Lowering the price is what you call a dirty trick.
You...Be careful, I won't let you off that easily.
Instead of wasting your time fighting me,
why don't you think about how to work harder?
Jerk! Watch it!
Excuse me, you are...
I...
Uh...I've mistaken this.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Mr. Xu, thank you for coming so quickly.
These are the biscuits I made.
It's good.
It's also not to sweet, it's great for the elderly like me.
These are the healthy biscuits I made,
no sugar and less oil.
It's great not only for the elderly, but for kids too.
I'm thinking that this could be added to our Living Happy #1's cafe.
Oh right! What is it that you urgently wanted to talk to me about?
Oh...I was thinking
that other than posters and advertisements,
shouldn't we try to add something more?
What does that mean?
I think that we should find someone to represent us as a model.
Someone who's famous.
Oh.
Do you have someone in mind?
Tao Xiu Qiong. What do you think?
Is it that one who's beautiful,
really famous
and I think... the one who has won a lot of awards... That Tao Xiu Qiong?
That's right. Do you think she's okay?
Are you laughing at me?
I don't dare.
Why wouldn't you? If you want to laugh then laugh.
In a while don't call me old boss.
It will scare people.
- Call me President. - Yes, old boss.
Yes, President.
I don't do performances. Find someone else.
Miss Tao, listen to me.
I don't do performances!
Hey! What are you doing!
Let go!
♫ I just want to be in love, I don't want to not be dazed, Weird spirits please get away from me ♫
Please have some tea.
I'm sorry.
But you can't blame me.
You all were dressed like you were in the mafia. It's understandable to misunderstand you.
Of course I don't blame you.
It's my fault.
I've scared you, I should be the one to apologize.
Are you okay?
Yes.
You said you had something to discuss with me?
We want to invite you to represent us.
If you agree,
money isn't a problem.
Do you think I'm someone who's very fond of money?
Of course not.
Everyone knows that you
are beautiful and kind.
You always take the time out to shoot social issues,
and I heard you also donate to charity.
You are also clear about that.
When I take an advertisement, I have my own values.
If the public is satisfied, I will take it.
You know that us as celebrities have a social responsibility right?
Of course.
I really respect
your determination.
That's why we want you to represent us no matter what.
Then, what am I representing?
We recently made a major investment in a retirement home.
- It's called Living Happy #1. - Wait.
It wouldn't be that you want me to represent a retirement home?
That's right.
Are you blind!?
Is it your astigmatism that's acting up?
Take a good look! I'm quite young!
You want me to represent a retirement home?!
No, no. Miss Tao, listen to me.
Get out!
No,
the retirement home you're thinking of isn't the one we have.
- It's called Living Happy #1. - Get out!
Miss Tao, it's not that I want you to represent a retirement home,
I want you to represent living happily.
Living happily?
Yes, living happily. Wasn't there something very popular called living slowly?
It was to promote people to live slowly.
I think that
using foreign people to promote slower living isn't meaningful.
That's why we thought to use living happily
to live a happy life.
So you want me to represent Living Happy
and promote happy living?
That's correct. It's Living Happy.
Right now, people are living in hard circumstances.
Especially those who are adults,
they use most of their life to work. The result?
That's why we think
that living happily is something they should think about first.
Once I thought about living happily,
the first person I thought about was you.
Look at your life. This quality of life, this taste,
this kind of living is happily living.
That's why we want to invite you to represent us.
Because I think that you are capable
of succeeding to promote Living Happy.
You can make it a trend.
Okay.
Leave the details here and I'll think about it.
Oh, that's great!
Here, this is our information.
This is my business card.
After you've decided,
call me anytime.
I will receive your call at anytime.
Okay, then I'll see you out.
Oh, okay.
Can I take a picture with you?
Also an autograph?
It's not me who wants it. It's my daughter.
She's your fan.
She asked me to take a picture with you.
- No problem. - That's great.
Do you both want to take one as well?
No, it's fine.
Can I get your autograph?
Of course, but how can I sign on your phone?
It's no problem.
Where is he going?
I have a printer in my car.
In today's time, moving offices are popular.
That's why everywhere can be my office.
Oh.
This one.
This, this.
This red one just came in. It's also the best selling style.
Isn't this black one easier to pair clothes with?
But the red one is a limited edition, after a few days you won't be able to buy it.
Then I want both of them.
Okay, I'll package it for you right away. Please wait a moment.
Miss Xu, we now offer a service to deliver to your house.
Since you are our VIP,
you can have a cup of tea and our employee will take your things for you.
Thank you.
If you're apologizing, shouldn't you have some sincerity?
- Apologize? - Yes.
I think you've misunderstood me. I'm not here to apologize.
What?
This is my one month's salary I'm paying you in advance and the pay I got today.
I know it's not enough, but take it for now.
I don't want to owe you another day.
This is your one month's salary?
It's also in advance?
That's right, in advance.
Don't worry, I'll return the rest in payments.
I need to inconvenience you to give me your account number.
You're not taking it?
This amount of money isn't enough to buy me a wallet. Just spend it yourself.
Hey! What do you mean?
Your entire month's salary is gone. What are you going to eat and sleep with?
Think of it as an act of kindness.
Hey!
He Xiao Kang, what are you doing?
That's right, I am poor.
But let me tell you,
there's nothing wrong with not having money.
There are a lot of things on this planet that money can't buy!
Like my pride.
Also, I apologize.
I'm afraid I can't help you hold these bags today.
Hey!
He Xiao Kang! What's with you?
All you have is that horrible temper.
Looking down on people.
Okay. You don't think I can do better?
Look at me. A noble taking revenge,
10 years is never too late.
Watch it.
Despicable!
Tong Tong,
what are you taking out on this doll?
I heard you didn't eat.
I'm not hungry.
That's a shame.
You don't want to eat this?
Then I'll take it away.
I knew it.
When you're not in a good mood, you'd want to eat something sweet.
You're really not in a good mood?
Who angered you? Tell dad.
It's that He Xiao Kang.
He Xiao Kang?
Oh, Director He's younger brother?
Weren't you cooperating nicely with him?
Who's cooperating nicely with him?
We've been fighting ages ago.
Ages ago? Oh, you knew him before?
Do you remember when I had a performance during university?
I remember. You came home crying that you wouldn't act anymore.
That's right. The one who put me in such a horrible mood
was He Xiao Kang.
After so many years he still hasn't changed.
He's still so determined to do things his own way.
Then why don't you tell dad how determined is he to do things his own way?
I know that he was missing payments for his practice room so I helped him cover it.
I was kind enough to give it back to him.
If he doesn't take my kindness, then fine.
But he scolded me.
That's a little too much.
Right? He looked so pitiful.
I called the rent owner to forget it
and let them use it as their practice room since I'm not using it anyway.
I knew that you don't say what you mean.
You're filled with empathy in your heart, right?
How about this? Dad
will call his director brother and tell him to scold him.
No. Then people will think I'm the petty one.
- We just don't let anyone know about it. - Is it possible?
Of course we can.
Didn't you already rent the practice room?
We just need to shift the direct force
to put forth our own strength.
Shift the direct force to put forth our own strength?
Eh?
♫ I just want to be in love, I want to be dazed ♫
♫ Weird spirits please get away from me, Away from Cloud 9 ♫
Oh.
This should be the right one.
It should be this one.
I...I haven't agreed yet.
If I find him myself, this kid
would he think that I already agreed to it?
Stay here.
That's not right.
If I just hang it there, then my son Ding Ya wouldn't know that I left it there.
Would he not eat it?
Aiya.
Ah, I can leave a note.
Right, where's my pen?
Mom.
Ahem.
I heard that...Miss Xia told me that you got an allergic reaction.
That you haven't returned home, so I came.
Then...since you're already here, want to come in?
Uh...
Okay.
Alright, I'll take these in for you.
Let me help you change into slippers.
Here.
Wow, all of these are the dishes I like.
Of course.
You're too careless. You know that you have an allergy
and can't reckless eat things but you don't even pay attention to it.
It's not just these, I have some more.
Mom has prepared it all for you.
When I heard you had an allergic reaction I was in such a panic.
These are the medicines I got from the doctor. This is the one you take orally.
This one you can apply to your skin.
The doctor said that if you don't feel well, you can use it.
Thank you, mom.
Eat, eat. Eat it while it's warm.
It's not good when it cools down.
Mom,
even if I anger you, you still care for me.
What are you saying? You're my son.
My precious son. If I don't care about you, who would I care about?
Hey, wait.
Let me clarify something.
This doesn't mean that I agree.
Mom,
don't persuade me. I've lived for a long time, I admit
that I'm a person who keeps up with the newest trends.
Especially that my son
likes men.
I can't take it that easily.
Mom,
let me finish talking.
I know that you youngsters have your own perspectives.
That each one would say they want to live their real self.
But...
you're not alone. You have family and you have me.
Can you understand your mom's heart?
Ding Ya, you're my precious son.
I've raised you.
I always thought, once my child is all grown up,
how handsome and skilled will he be?
That one day you would bring your girlfriend home.
Would you be shy?
Also I was thinking...
Thinking that one day you would get married,
would you be as handsome as the groom would be?
I would wait until your wife has a baby and you become a father.
Would you be like your father? That once you become a father your mind becomes blank?
I've thought about it for so long.
But everything is gone.
As parents, if we don't agree, we would object.
It's not that we don't love you.
It's that it's too much to take in.
You should at least give us time
to let us have some more time to think about it.
Mom, I'm sorry you had to feel this way.
I really feel bad.
Mom...
Mom.
It's my fault. I should have explained it to you.
I guarantee you, you must believe me.
I 100% like women.
You like women?
It's true.
Then how come before...that...
Before, I made a mistake.
I lied to some people, I'm at fault.
I should have explained it to you earlier so you wouldn't worry. I'm sorry.
Is it because
you're trying to comfort me that you're saying that?
I'm really not gay.
I like women. I swear on my life.
You like women?
Since you like women, you can't just be like this and say you like them and leave it at that.
You should at least prove it.
You should prove it.
How do I prove it?
Like...mom will immediately
find you a beautiful
and nice girl that you can meet.
I'll find a good partner for you to love.
Mom. Finding a girlfriend isn't like play house. Don't be so rushed.
What do you mean I can't rush? You already said you like women.
Right now I just want to focus on work.
I don't want to be distracted from work. There's so many days ahead of me.
I will definitely find a girlfriend.
I guarantee that once I find a girlfriend I'll take her home to you right away.
Okay.
Then that's that.
But don't make me wait too long.
Okay. I won't make you wait too long.
My obedient son.
Eh. Look. We've been chatting for long
that you haven't eaten yet. It's getting cold.
Okay. It's not good once it cools down.
Here, here.
Look, I've prepared it for you.
I paid attention to nutrition. I know what you can and can't eat.
Look how messy it is when you live alone.
I'm just going to arrange this for you.
If you eat then just eat. Why do you place this beside you?
Mom, your eggplant is the best.
Oh right, mom. You said you wanted me to help you transform right? I have some time these day.
Once we find a day I'll take you out to buy clothes and fix your hair.
As long as I'm prettier than her,
I'm willing to get any makeover.
Prettier than her? Who?
Aiya, how come it keeps ringing?
Why did you set an alarm?
Time's up. Mom needs to go home and prepare dinner.
Wait, you don't need to leave so hurriedly.
It's fine if you miss one day making dinner. Older brother will deal with it.
It's not just your brother and sister-in-law, there's also Wei Wei.
Please. You just raised your son and now you're raising your grandson.
You youngsters don't understand.
Children, grandchildren, it's such a blessing.
Also, Wei Wei only like to eat what I make.
Your sister-in-law's cooking...
Aiyo, it's not edible.
But that can't just let that tie you down. You don't even have the time to eat with me.
Oh.
You're jealous.
That's right. I'm jealous.
I'm so happy that you are jealous.
Okay. Obedient and handsome son.
Another day. I didn't tell your brother or sister-in-law in advance.
I'm afraid that Wei Wei will starve.
- Another day. How about you come home? - But-
Why don't you come home to have dinner? If you don't come home,
I'll cook for you. It's best if you come home.
I'll come later. I'll call you.
Okay, okay.
Eat.
Eat and then take the medicine. Just because I left, it doesn't mean you should not eat and not take the medicine.
Okay, don't worry about me.
Bye bye!

Oh, you're going back?
What a coincidence.
Oh right, I have some good news for you.
Is the good news that Mr. Xu got Tao Xiu Qiong to be your model?
How did you know?
Compared to your worried-filled face earlier to your now smiling face.
But you wouldn't know why Mr.Xu was so willing to find Tao Xiu Qiong as our model right?
Since he was so willing,
it could be because he has a good opinion about her.
Or he's her fan.
You even guessed that Mr.Xu is Miss Tao's fan?
I didn't guess. I deduced it
from the clues you gave me.
It's okay. I'm on my way home to cook dinner.
You don't need to cook. I'll treat you to dinner.
Why?
To thank you for giving me advice this morning.
You want to cook? I rather not. The soup you made last time is still engraved in my head.
I didn't do it intentionally. I was the victim too, okay?
How about we go to the mart and buy dinner? I can also buy something to eat for Ding Ya.
- Okay. - Let's go.
In a while, whatever you want to eat, tell me. I'll treat you.
Okay, I will.

Aiyo, everyone's home. What time is it now? How late is it?
Oh no. I need to work faster.
Wei Wei, is the fried chicken good?
It's good. It's better than grandma's chicken 100 times.
Wei Wei, you can't say that.
What are you doing? Mom's not home, it's fine if the child wants to say what he wants.
We should be grateful that mom cooks three meals a day for us at her age.
This gratefulness is very tiring.
I told mom before that she doesn't need to cook everyday. But she doesn't listen.
Mom is doing it for our own good.
But her dishes don't suit our taste. We're tired of eating it.
If it doesn't suit your taste you could tell her. She can change it up.
I told her, but she said these dishes are the ones you like the most since you were a child. That it couldn't change.
Gao Ding Yu, honestly, aren't you tired of eating the same things everyday?
It is tiring eating it.
Once I've grown up, I don't really like eating those dishes anymore.
I just didn't want to hurt mom.
You don't want to hurt her, but don't you know that Wei Wei and I are suffering?
Can't you be honest and tell her straight up that we don't like her cooking?
We give her NT$20,000 a month. We could use that money to hire a chef
that will cook different things for us every meal, every day. Isn't that good?
What about mom? She makes the same things everyday.
Beef with spinach, pork bone soup and
that tomatoes with eggs, even I can recite it.
You're favourite is radish sparerib soup.
Winter is the best time to eat radish.
Before...one pound of radish was NT$20.
Now it's NT$80.
The spinach price has also increased.
You're favourite is spinach with beef.
There's also
there's also your favourite
this is also your favourite.
It was your favourite
but when did it not become your favourite?
It turns out
that you don't like it anymore.
It's not safe living alone.
I can find a couple of people to become my roommates.
Then I would have some insurance.
Your face doesn't have clues. Only I understand the feeling of sadness.

♫ Everywhere in this world is inspirational ♫
