An Xi, you're the reason why my heart beats.
This is the purchase contract of your old house at Pu Lang Village.
Why did you tell Yong Qing to buy my old house at Pu Lang Village?
She wants you.
As her older brother, I think I need to help her.
Help me to look after Yan Ze's recent activities.
You're still waiting for your mom, right?
Why not let me try to help you find her?
In order for me to believe you, you must present to me your official marriage document with Yong Qing.
I'm not going to participate in this Russian project.
That girl An Xi, really won't do.
She's the complete opposite of Yong Qing!
Not interacting with someone else's girlfriend alone, and getting her drunk is basic respect, isn't it?
Let go of me!
Wifey, come home with me, quickly.
I already said you are a hindrance.
Tonight is the night of making wishes come true.
You want Unibrow, I'll give you Unibrow.
Dad... I'm in love.
Just stay here and reminisce about your dad on your own.
My dad said that those who want to leave will not stay.
And those who want to stay, will not leave.

When I See You AgainEpisode 15
It's so cold.
Has You Qian's CEO always been that cold towards people?
Or is it just towards me?
Godmother, who were you talking to earlier?
That person looks like...
You Qian's girlfriend.
So, what did you say to her?
You are only acting with Xia You Qian,
and aren't serious about him, right?
If you aren't serious about him, then let him go, as early as possible, here.
Godmother.
Yong Qing, I also really want you to have Xia You Qian.
But...
In order for me to believe you, I must have a signed contract from you.
Your signed official marriage with Yong Qing.
Xia You Qian rejected my proposal.
Yong Qing, with your qualifications,
you can find so many people who can replace Xia You Qian.
But, for some qualified girls,
Xia You Qian is the only good guy that they can find.
Just take it as the last favor I'll do for him.
The last favor?
Godmother, you can't possibly be allowing You Qian to be with An Xi, right?
Is it because you want to abandon You Qian now?
Godmother, you can't possibly still be doubting You Qian's loyalty, right?
You Qian's always been working hard at work!
Yong Qing,
doubt is like a seed.
When it has been planted in your heart, it's immensely hard to uproot it.
No matter how hard he works, it will be useless.
Not to mention, I've already doubted him so much.
Yet he is still willing to stay.
And so, this makes me doubt him more.
Since I no longer believe him, then...
from here on out I'll cut off ties with him.
In order to commemorate the 7th anniversary of Boss venturing out to sea,
this year we're especially holding a Hawaiian party.
There's beach volleyball, refreshing drinks, and Hawaiian pizza.
Most importantly, there are pretty girls ready to party with you.
That's so old-fashioned.
Who came up with this idea?
This year we have floral shirts and sexy legs.
This is a new idea! I practiced for a long time, okay?
Okay, let's have fun!
Ya Lu, you and I are a team.
An Xi, you and Zhi Lin are a team.
Ya En will keep score.
Zhi Lin.
Zhi An Team. Jin Lu Team.Give me another chance!
Okay.
Zhi Lin, you better get this.
Mei Wen Jie, quickly!
Yay!
This ball is yours!
Yay!
We got a point!
Didn't you say you were going to get it?
Who strikes like that?
Team Jin Lu: 3 points("Jin Lu" refers to Jin Mei Wen and Ya Lu)
Team Jin Lu: 8 points("Jin Lu" refers to Jin Mei Wen and Ya Lu)
Ya En, right now it's time to have fun.
Don't think about other things. Come and play with us.
But I...
How about this?
Why don't you help Mei Wen's team serve?
There's a first for everything anyway.
Even if you fail, it's okay.
The most important thing is...
- Being happy during the process!- Give this to me.
Go.
Fighting!
- Here.- Stand here and serve.
- Fighting!- Get ready.
Ya En, be careful.
Hit in my direction.
- Here she comes.- She's going to serve.
Yay!
Wow!
An Xi, what did Director Xia feed you?
How did you hit it that hard?
Mei Wen Jie, why are you making stuff up?
I'm jealous.
I also want to take those love pills.
You want to take love pills?
I'll feed you my fists.
Come back here!
Save me, Boss!
Do you see your daughter bullying others?
Let her have it!
Dad, are you happy?
Every year we always burst out laughing for you.
I'm really happy with everyone by my side.
Mei Wen wants some too!
An Xi went back to Pu Lang Village?
This is Director Hu's most recent schedule that I've found so far.
It includes people he's contacted and places he's been to.
I haven't found anything special.
Director Hu and you are actually opposites.
People who have investigated him say that Director Hu is very good at being secretive.
While you, Director, are good at observing.
Step out for a bit.
I have something to tell You Qian.
What's wrong with you and Godmother?
Why did she personally go and investigate Pu Lang Village?
She even told me to just give up on you.
CEO went to Pu Lang Village today?
She said she went to investigate and brought me to Pu Lang Village's beach.
Beach?
The purification zone
isn't established near the beach.
She was really unusual today.
She exchanged a few words with An Xi near the beach.
She even touched a surfboard, which she usually thinks are dirty things.
After she saw me, she told me to give you up.
She said that you are the only best man that An Xi can find
and to let you guys just be together.
That's not right. That's not unusual.
Godmother is already starting to cut ties with you.
Just like with those who left her before.
CEO met An Xi at the beach.
I am discussing work with you, and all you care about is your An Xi.
I know you, and I know Godmother.
You will not bow down to anyone, but Godmother could destroy you!
So at least leave her when she's not being hostile towards you.
Or else she will find ways to make you leave this industry—
Yong Qing.
Thank you.
But if you're willing to sell my old house to me,
I will be more grateful.
Do you think my concern for you is a joke right now?!
Or do you think I'm just making an excuse to come and find you and be nice to you?!
You must think I'm ridiculous now, right?
I'm not thinking that.
Whatever!
It doesn't matter how things go with you and Godmother.
It doesn't matter if things go good or bad. It's none of my business!
Right now isn't even the time to investigate this case.
But CEO actually went to Pulang Village personally.
It's weird, right?
She said that since she was cold towards me when I came to the office last time
she's treating me to a meal and going to apologize.
CEO who never apologizes has the thought of saying sorry to An Xi?
Her dad... how did he pass away?
I only said he left, but I didn't say he passed away.
She avoided my gaze
and asked about An Xi's father.
Yes, my birthday is on the 1st of April.
Yong Qing was also born on the 1st of April.
So your dad built a hostel in Pulang
and believed that one day, your mother will come back?[Lunar Maria]
Lunar... Lunar Maria.
Why didn't I think of it?
CEO, are you okay?
Ever since she was born, I've decided not to care about her.
Even now... there's no reason for me to do so.
CEO, I'm Jennifer.
Come in.
Hold on. Wait outside first.
You went to Pu Lang Village today?
Yong Qing has indeed went to inform you.
No wonder people say love is the hardest obstacle for a woman to overcome.
When a woman takes a step back, she's defeated.
An Xi is your daughter, right?
I indeed gave birth to her 28 years ago.
When did you know about this?
After Yan Ze went to Pulang Village.
Then why are you not acknowledging her?
She doesn't have that value.
I didn't know she was of that standard.
Her appearance, speech, and education. None of them are up to standard.
I don't need a daughter like her.
Your daughter doesn't exist just because you need her.
You were the one who made her exist.
I've always respected CEO all this time.
You're a very assertive person.
You're very sharp and agile, and you never do things slovenly.
But now, I came to know that you can actually treat anything
beneath you as sandbags, and throw them away.
But a sandbag has weight.
No matter how high you climb, one day, it will come back to pull you down.
Sandbag?
Then let me tell you who will be the first to get abandoned by me.
The acquisition of Izumo Construction, you no longer need to interfere!
Get Jennifer to come in.
CEO.
Director.
CEO.
Tell me. How is the meeting with the Russian funding company progressing?
The Russian funding company...
I'm here to borrow the statute book (book of laws).
Didn't I tell you not to enter my office whenever you like?
What should I do?
I just came from the CEO's office.
I have the latest progress with the Russian funding company.
Don't you want to know?
Grandpa.
Daddy always lied to me saying that you work at the Asian Youth Society.
That means that you're such a nice person in his heart.
Mommy, if you're that nice, can you take care of me for a while?
Just a little while.
After that, I found out that she wasn't any noble volunteer.
She's just a mother who doesn't want me.
That hostel is the only connection between my mother and me.
I'm afraid that if I leave,
if she comes back one day, she wouldn't be able to find me.
Then why are you not acknowledging her?
She doesn't have that value.
I didn't know she's of that standard.
Her appearance, speech, and education. None of them are up to standard.
I don't need a daughter like her.
Should I tell An Xi?
CEO...
CEO is her mother.
An Xi set this alarm ringtone for me.
She was afraid that I would forget to take my medicines.
Grandpa, water.
What's the matter?
Could it be that you haven't seen An Xi for a day,
and you're feeling like three years have passed?
No.
Then what's the matter?
Grandpa.
Did you know that since she was young, An Xi only had a father,
and she doesn't have a mother?
I know.
Although the hope was small, An Xi didn't give up.
She hopes that one day she will be able to find her mother.
Today...
Today I accidentally found out who her mother is.
But her mother doesn't want to acknowledge her at all.
Oh...
Who is her mother then?
CEO.
Well... she's so unlike An Xi!
An Xi wouldn't be able to handle someone like her.
I don't know if I should tell her the truth.
Although I know that she wants to find her mother,
I'm afraid that she would know that her mom doesn't want to acknowledge her at all.
She will be deeply hurt.
No, you can't tell her.
You mustn't tell her.
The greater the anticipation, the greater the disappointment.
An Xi is so excited in wanting to acknowledge her mother.
What if she gets shot down with a cold rebuke after showing her warm feelings?
Wouldn't An Xi be even more upset?
But An Xi wants me to stop lying to her.
You're not lying to her, but rather, you are protecting her.
The reason why you are hesitating is because you know better than me.
You know what kind of a person your boss is.
I really don't wish to see An Xi get hurt.
It's so comfy!
I'm alive again.
There's no place like home!
Mei Wen Jie?
Come in.
You Qian? What are you doing here?
I missed you.
You're exaggerating too much.
It hasn't even been a day since I've come back here.
Wait, wait!Don't come up.
I really hate that corner.
Why?
Come here, sit over here.
Sit over here.
You look tired.
Why did you come over? I could've just gone back.
How was your talk with Uncle today?
Uncle?
My dad doesn't like to be so formal.
No wonder when I told him that I had a boyfriend,
he hit me with a wave.
Didn't you say any good words about me?
My dad doesn't have time to listen to things like that.
Every time I say to him, "Dad!"
He just says, "Oh, the water's nice today. I'm heading out."
Also, he didn't even wait until I graduated college.
He always ended up disappearing.
The words "sense of responsibility" just aren't in his dictionary.
Was that the reason my mom left him?
An Xi, let me tell you a bedtime story.
What?
A bedtime story.
You changed the subject pretty fast, didn't you?
Lie down.
You Qian.
Hurry up and lie down.
Here.
Once upon a time, there was a very rich man. His family had many treasures.
This man was very ugly and had a blue beard covering his face. No one wanted to get near him.
Wait, are you seriously going to tell me a bedtime story?
Yeah.
How old am I already?
Alright, continue.
Bluebeard wanted to marry the daughter of the village widow, but the girl was unwilling.
Bluebeard sent many treasures to the widow, and in the end,
the girl ended up marrying him.One day, Bluebeard went out,
and gave his wife a ring of keys, and said, "You can open any door you'd like,"
"except for the door to the room at the end of the hall. Otherwise, my anger will be unimaginable."
Wait!
This isn't how you tell a story.
It's too anti-climatic.You have to know how to build the tension.
"You can open any door you'd like."
"Except for...!"
"...the door to the room at the end of the hall."
"You cannot open that one."
"Otherwise, my anger will be unimaginable."
W-wait.
The bedtime story has become a ghost story.
Bedtime stories should be warm and cozy.
You chose Bluebeard for something warm and cozy?
The wife couldn't contain her curiosity and used the key to open the door,
and realized that the floor was covered in bloodstains.
Hanging on the walls were the corpses of his former brides.
Hey, to be honest, why did you come here today?
And then you suddenly started telling me a bedtime story?
I didn't tell you about my mom
when I got drunk that day, did I?
Oh my god, I really am the big-mouth of Pu Lang Village.
Is there anything left that I haven't said?
An Xi, it's okay if you can't find your mom.
You have me. Let me be your closest family member.
I won't ever let you feel lonely.
I promise.

Thank goodness he didn't wake up.
The Bible says that when someone kisses your right cheek,
you have to turn your left cheek to them.
Where in the Bible does it say that?
It's to preserve social equality and justice.
My left cheek...
What? Are you a freedom fighter?
I have a dream.
Okay, your left side's been kissed now too.
Now you can open your eyes and wake up, right?
Hey, wait!
Pu Lang Village's theater admission.
Tickets are NT$1000 a piece.
Come on.
- Wait a minute, missy. Are you 18 years old yet?- Yeah.
Quick, take a seat.
What are you guys trying to do? This is my room.
You come in to laugh at me in the morning. You didn't even knock.
It wasn't on purpose. We thought you were here by yourself.
Yeah, and I came to call you for breakfast. Who knew it was buy one, get one free?
Director Xia, An Xi's only been back for a day, and you're already so stuck to her?
I can't breathe...
You're being ridiculous.
But truth be told, you're too worried.
In Pu Lang Village, excluding Ya Ru,
the person with the highest social standing and income is Jiang Hai Kuo.
How can he be compared to you? Rest assured.
An Xi has nowhere to run to.
Wow, it smells great.
Here.
No sugar or milk.
Thanks.
Go make your own.
I'm drinking water. Too much coffee makes you age faster.
Sorry.
Here, You Qian, have some salad.
Thank you.
And this potato.
It's very soft and tasty.
Have some.
Eat something else.
Oh, be quiet.
And this!
Have some hot dog, it tastes really good.
Does it taste good?
It does.
Why aren't you guys eating?
Eat what? We're already full.
You haven't even eaten yet. How could you be full already?
A grown woman can't be kept at home.
In the past, just a mention of You Qian...Who was it?
I won't say who, but they would get so embarrassed.
But now, everything that's good to eat gets put on You Qian's plate.
What kind of friendship between women is this?
Dog-shit.
Why are you two so angry?
Look at Ya En. She doesn't have any issues.
That juice was originally mine.
See there? So fickle.
Sincerity has become heartlessness.
You even took away a sick person's juice.
My heart is aching.
That's enough nonsense.
I've decided. When You Qian drives back to Taipei, I won't follow.
I'm staying here to catch up with my sisters.
Then I'll come over after work.
No, no, no! Please don't stay here, you two.
Otherwise we're all going to go blind.
You can just be the boss who works from afar
and follow Director Xia back to Taipei.
Wait, this isn't right. I'm the boss.
Why have I been kicked out by my staff?
If they didn't, that would cause me distress.
You didn't happen to use something to bribe them, did you?
I could have bribed them?
Why didn't you mention that earlier?
This isn't the way out of Pu Lang Village.
Did you go the wrong way?
Nope.
I've always wanted to come back here with you again.
Because this is the first place you brought me to after we met.
I'm the world's most special man!
Those who bullied me, go die!
Hey!
I am the world's happiest girl!
Unibrow and Xia You Qian are actually the same person!
It feels like I've won the lottery!
There is also another reason why I came here.
Because the sky and the sea are very close to each other.
An Xi's dad, hello!
I'm Xia You Qian!
I really like your daughter very much!
Please be rest assured and hand over your daughter to me!
I will work hard and give her happiness!
The weather is so good.
The sea is so calm too.
I guess your dad agreed.
Thank you. I will work hard to give you happiness too.
Da Yu, cancel the meeting later. We are no longer in-charge of the Izumo Construction project.
Also, get our team members to hand over all the information, and pass them over to CEO's secretary.
Director. Are you okay?
There's nothing else. You came into my office so early. Do you have something to day?
Oh, yes. I found out something strange. It's regarding about Mr. Hu.
Tell me.
Jennifer who was put in-charge of the Russian funding project by CEO,
a colleague saw her entering and leaving Mr. Hu's place.
- Call Jennifer over.- Yes.
Da Yu? Director Xia is looking for me?
Okay, I'm going over now
Thanks.
Director, you were looking for me? subtitles ripped by riri13
Did Yan Ze...
start dating with you after you were put in-charge with the Russia project?
But... he doesn't want to reveal his relationship with you.
We will reveal our relationship very soon.
The both of you will never reveal your relationship.
Hello, CEO.
Come in.
CEO.
Just now Director Xia was looking for you?
Yes.
What for?
He...
You already left his team.
He is no longer your supervisor. Just go ahead and tell me.
Why did CEO suddenly ask me about this?
No matter what, I mustn't let her suspect my relationship with Yan Ze.
Just now Director Xia asked me
about the company's progress with the Russian funding company.
Indeed, my suspicion was right.
At times, I'm not very smart ♫
♫ I can't find the right timing or the right tone ♫
Director, do you think that the relationship between Jennifer and Mr. Hu has got something to do with the Russian project?
Yan Ze is someone, in work or in love, that won't touch anything that isn't beneficial to him.
CEO gave all the legal files to him.
Although he did not take over any projects, he is able to clearly know every project's progress.
- Director, then...- Da Yu.
Help me check who is in-charge of the Russian funding project.
Also, did somebody already start to acquire the land in Pulang Village?
Okay.
Aiyo, this...
You Qian is back.
Grandpa.
Have you eaten yet? I'll make something for you. It'll be ready in a second.
Okay, I'll eat in the study room.
What are you looking at?
Oh, nothing. It's work related.
Is it frustrating?
Very frustrating.
If I got this right, our company is facing a small crisis.
But CEO will not believe me.
Why?
Doubting is her nature.
What if you show your weakness?
It won't work.
You guys are so weird. If you doubt everything, how are you supposed to have a successful deal?
If you went the market today, and the owner gave you a winter melon, they tell you the winter melon is good.
Usually, you can buy the winter melon and cook it to see if it's good or not.
Usually if the owner says the winter melon is tasty,
you would start to doubt. How would they know if the winter melon is good or not?
If at this point, the owner tells you, they can sell it to you for less
then you would be even more suspicious. Why would they sell it for cheaper?
That means there is definitely something wrong with the winter melon.
Why do problems reiterated from you sound so much simpler?
What's wrong?
If I were Ms. Hu,
I would think of ways to prove you are a good winter melon to the boss.
The bottom line is your boss doesn't like me.
I can't help you at all.
She is probably someone who can't like me at all in her entire life, right?
An Xi.
Don't think about this anymore.
It doesn't matter if it's a good melon or bad melon.
As long as you are living well.
I should be the one to comfort you, how did it become switched?
As long as you are happy everyday,
I will be happy too.
Grandpa.
Yeah?
Does You Qian like anything in particular?
He likes to read.
I'm not talking about hobbies.
I'm talking about things that could cheer him up.
There is. You Qian likes to eat douhua (tofu pudding).
Douhua?
In the past, we were poor. You Qian couldn't bear to spend any money.
Other than when he did badly on a test, or if he felt particularly down,
he would buy a bowl of douhua to eat.
He even needs to plan when he is going to eat douhua?
Later, we moved to Taipei
he found a store that had the familiar village taste.
But, it's a bit far.
It doesn't matter if it's a bit far. As long as You Qian likes it, it could be on an island, and I would even swim to go to buy it.
You have a new message.
Director, the funds for the Russian funding's purification zone has been binned into graphs, and mailed.
Director.
This was delivered by An Xi just now.
This is that renowned Tofu Pudding Store, that you have to line up for. I have a portion too.
Where's An Xi?
She just left. She said you were working and didn't want to just barge in.
Director!
I have a portion too.
Please.
The other things, I can't help.
But I hope that when You Qian eats it, he can be a little happier.
Sorry.
Yan Ze?
Yan Ze!
An Xi.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Hey, didn't I already say? If you're feeling down, come find me.
Okay. Then when I get off work, we can chat.
Okay.
♫ At times, I'm not very smart ♫
♫ I can't find the right timing or the right tone ♫
Didn't I already say? If you're feeling down, come find me.
Okay. Then when I get off work, we can chat.
Okay.
Thank You.
You really look off today.
Really, I'm fine.
Then the time and place, I'll tell you later.
Hey, don't be too down, there's nothing you can't conquer, okay?
I'll enter first.
- Hey! Remember to tell me the time and place. - Okay.
Bye-bye!
The coffee place outside your company is really awesome. They even let you borrow this.
Aiyo, there's nothing big.
It was only because Yan Ze's feeling kind of down, so I want to spend some time with him.
Why are you being like this? Over here, I don't have any other friends.
I'm not forbidding you guys from being friends.
But for the moment, keep your distance from Yan Ze.
Why?
Is it because of the situation with your boss?
Do you think Yan Ze is the boss's good melon?
Not only that.
Yan Ze...
Yan Ze is weird lately.
If he's not feeling well, then obviously he is not himself.
Are you jealous?
Don't Worry. Yan Ze isn't my type.
I like the those unsmiling bookworms.
Some?
One. Okay. One. Why are you picking on people?
Here, eat this. I stood the entire morning for this.
-What? - Ah
You have hands.
Tofu Pudding. Ahh.
Tofu Pudding is surprisingly best when eaten with my girlfriend.
Quickly eat. You're really going off the boundaries.
- Is it delicious? - It's good. I want more.
Hey, I didn't say to let you eat.
Okay. You're full now, happy?
Happy!
I'll throw away the trash.
Didn't I say that I have backups?
Aren't you too overboard? Where is the kiss you promised?
Aiya, I was saying you didn't take your phone.
Really?
Yep.
That's right, You Qian. I feel lately Grandpa gets tired easily.
Do you want to take him for a check up?
Okay. I'll tell Da Yu to make an appointment.
The weather today is really nice! So comfortable.
Good weather is the calm before a storm.
Why do you have to think so pessimistically?
That way there's time for preparation.
Okay, I'm going to throw away the trash.
I'll help you.
No need.
Director.
Just like what you'd thought. Many lands in Pu Lang Village are no longer under Jang Hai Kuo.
It's registered under many different people.
I think those names were borrowed.
Looks like the Russian funding company is playing two techniques with us on this collaboration project.
On one side buying the land needed for construction,
and on the other side, selling the lands at higher prices to Ocean.
CEO was the one who made the decision to hold the purification zones at Pulang Village.
If the Russian funding company is buying lands in advance,
then that means there's a mole.
Could it be Jennifer? And even...
I hope it's not him.
I'm finally leaving this place.
This place is so far-off, and
too small.
Hey. What's up with that girl in the afternoon?
Didn't I say not to leisurely enter my office?
That's irrelevant. Everyone's off work, and besides, we should publicize it.
You will be bringing me along with you to the Russian funding company, right?
Aiyo. What does that mean?
This is the company. Don't be like this.
Hu Yan Ze. Are you playing with me?
How can you say something so weak?
I like confident women. Where's your confidence?
Or do you think you can't hold onto me?
I will let you know that you can't abandon me.
Don't forget, we're in the same boat.
How could I forget?
♫ At times, I'm not very smart ♫
♫ I can't find the right timing or the right tone ♫
Also, don't forget that we're in the same boat.
How could I forget?
Hello, flower shop.
I would like to order a bouquet of roses.
Yes.
This brat is sensible after all.
He even knows girls like flowers.
You Qian.
You're home?
Grandpa.
Earlier, An Xi got a call from Yan Ze and went out.
Where did she go?
San Min Preschool
Here, your drink.
Drink slowly. Drink slowly. Go and play.
- Be careful, be careful, be careful.- Why don't I have one?
Be careful, be careful.
Mine is over there.
- Yes.- Drink up.
Good boy.
You said you hated your dad's work,
but in the end you're just like him, visiting these children whenever you have a chance.
I don't really want to spend time with them.
I just want to see if I can discover the same feeling my father experienced.
I want to know for what reason he would abandon his biological child for these unrelated kids.
It was because he knew you could have a good living.
In this world, there are still a lot of kids who are fighting for a meal or a sip of water.
It makes our worries appear overthought.
Right?
Oh, right, Yan Ze.
Do you know if You Qian's doing okay at work lately?
He seems to be very stressed out about his work.
Does your CEO have problems with him?
If you want to help, you can try to win our CEO's favor.
Win her favor?
Do you think I haven't thought about doing that?
But if I go, it will probably have the opposite effect.
How would you know if you don't try?
People change.
You Qian wasn't like this before he met you.
As long as you're willing, I would be happy to create opportunities for you.
Okay, then you have no choice but to bear with You Qian's ill temper whenever things aren't going smoothly at work.
By then, you can come to me and rant.
You think I won't dare to?
Look who's here.
What's your problem?
Must you find another person's girlfriend to accompany you?
You Qian, what's wrong?
It's okay. I'm sorry.
There are some feelings that only people who have had similar experiences will understand.
However, if you mind, I'm fine being by myself.
I do mind.
It's okay, it's okay.
They're just talking about work.
Does anyone want a drink?
I do!
An Xi.
I'll be waiting for you outside.
Here you go.
Is he taking me for a bad guy?
You Qian is probably under a lot of pressure these days.
Please don't take it to heart.
Oh, right. I think I'll have some news of your mom soon.
It won't necessarily be good news,
so don't get your hopes up.
Whatever the case, I want to thank you.
Then, I'm going now.
- Me too.- Bye!
An Xi, hold on.
May I ask if you're Mr. Hu Yan Ze?
Yes.
- Thank you.- Thank you.
Hold it.
This is...
I originally wanted to give a rose to each child,
but the flower shop delivered it too late.
Help me take care of it at home.
When we come here again in a few days, bring all of it.
I don't want to spend more money.
Okay, no problem.
Why didn't you ask the flower shop to wrap the roses individually?
No, I just said I wanted to order flowers.
The flower shop must have thought that men who order flowers are most likely giving it to their girlfriends.
It was wrapped quite well.
Yes, it's very pretty.
An Xi, this isn't the time for you to echo me.
Okay, you guys should head back.
Your boyfriend is getting jealous.
Aiyo, You Qian.
Let's talk about it at home.
- Bye.- Bye.
Yan Ze, thank you for helping me look for my mom.
Don't mention it. We're...
Lonely buddies!
I'll help you take good care of the flowers. Bye!
Bye!
Let's go.
Clever Xia You Qian must have discovered something.
But how much has he discovered?
If I find my mom, what should I do with her?
Why is Yan Ze helping you look for your mom?
It's because I'm friends with him!
That's why he said he wants to do something for me.
Did you know that
Yan Ze has very, very, very many friends?
I know.
He doesn't lack a friend like you.
It's not the same.
Everyone has a side to themselves that they don't want to share with other people.
It's like how I didn't want to bring up Unibrow before.
He too has troubles that he doesn't want other people to know about.
What troubles?
His dad.
Did you know that when his parents got a divorce,
they didn't fight over custody of him at all?
I completely understand his feelings.
It's like how my mom left me right when I was born.
We were never given a choice; the choice was made for us.
This kind of feeling is really not okay.
A person should deal with his emotions on his own.
Look at you, look at you, look at you. I knew you would say that.
Not everyone has a state of mind as good as yours.
Because I have you, Sister Mei Wen, and the others,
I have somewhere to express myself whenever I'm in a bad mood, but Yan Ze doesn't.
Yan Ze has Yong Qing.
Miss Hu is another wound in Yan Ze's heart.
Yan Ze has a grievance against Miss Hu's dad.
How is Yan Ze supposed to tell Miss Hu that?
Then, his mom...
His mom just cares about her own quality of living.
Look at Miss Hu. How is she so close to your boss,
while Yan Ze is so lonely?
Look at you. You've known Yan Ze for a long time, but you don't know him nearly as well as I do.
If he wants someone to understand him, he'll open his heart,
but if he doesn't do so, that means he has his own reasons.
In that vein, because he opened his heart to you...
- You have to think about—- Ha!
I knew you were going to say that.
I thought it over.
And?
He can identify with me, and I can identify with him as well.
He understands my feelings, so he's willing to share his feelings with me.
I was so happy about being able to find my mom, and then you started talking about this with me.
You... are a master at killing the mood.
I know you are very open to trusting others. This is your strength, but it's also your weakness.
I don't have any intention of changing you,
but no matter when it is,
can you spend another two seconds thinking for yourself and protecting yourself?
Can you?
Yes.
I'll help you.
You're waiting for me?
When did you find out that An Xi is the CEO's daughter?
- So you know as well.- Even though I don't know why you're getting close to An Xi,
if you're trying to make an issue out of the CEO and An Xi,
I advise you to give up immediately.
The CEO has no intentions of acknowledging her daughter.
However, this is not just any daughter. This is An Xi.
Could it be that you don't believe An Xi can subdue the CEO?
The CEO would only accept a daughter who's exactly like herself.
Then, make An Xi become like the CEO.
How would you know if you don't try?
Perhaps An Xi will have an amazing performance.
You want the CEO to acknowledge An Xi.
And then? What do you want to do?
Then, make An Xi become like the CEO.
You want the CEO to acknowledge An Xi. And then? What do you want to do?
An Xi is An Xi. She doesn't need to change for anyone.
I don't want her to get hurt by those who do not care for her.
You as well. An Xi genuinely considers you her friend.
She won't play that two-faced trick with you.
What do you mean by two-faced?
If An Xi hadn't told me yesterday,
it really wouldn't have occurred to me.
Four Years Ago
It's your turn.
Yan Ze, if you don't want to play, then don't call me out.
I have a lot of work to do.
I originally wanted to go into business like you.
Then go into business.
However, my stepfather wanted me to study law.
Did you have to listen to him?
People under the same roof...
Put the pawn you just captured back on the board.
The move cannot be undone. Rules are rules.
I taught you how to play chess,
so I should have the right to establish the rules once.
Put it back.
Rules are rules.
Real life isn't like this.
Let me tell you, in real life, whoever gave you grace
has the right to establish the rules.
If he wants you to return the favor by being a slave forever,
then you have to be a slave forever!
Bro! Why are you still here?
Dad just left, and all the relatives came. Mom doesn't know what to do.
Bro, please come back and help, okay?
It's okay.
It turns out that you always cared about how differently you and Yong Qing were treated.
So you found out.
So, you never considered Yong Qing a true sister?
Yong Qing's dad...
That person called me to his bedside before he died.
I thought he was going to say something sentimental to me
or at least thank me for my twenty years of effort.
In the end, he didn't. There wasn't a word.
I remember him telling me,
"You have to remember who gave you this life,"
"so you had better take care of Yong Qing."
"Otherwise, even if I'm dead I can still make you lose everything."
It was obviously a type of oppression, but he talked like it was charity.
He took someone else's effort like it was a given.
When it came to good things, he wouldn't think of me.
When it came to sacrificing a life, I had a share in it.
He was like this even on his deathbed!
Let me ask you, if it were you, would you be able to?
Would you be able to interact with Yong Qing without any resentment?
At the very least,
I wouldn't hide my true feelings from Yong Qing.
You put it so nicely.
Do you think everyone can live as freely as you do?
Let me tell you,
everyone tolerates you only because you're capable.
Otherwise, who would be willing to put up with someone like you?
Even the CEO is giving you chance after chance!
If you think the world is treating you unfairly,
then find a way to fight for what you want.
However, An Xi and Yong Qing truly consider you a friend
and brother. You shouldn't use them.
Xia You Qian, don't say those things to me.
I don't believe that you've never thought about
making use of the fact that An Xi is the CEO's daughter.
The CEO will only hurt An Xi.
If you still consider An Xi a friend,
then don't tell An Xi about her relationship with the CEO.
Why shouldn't I?
Hu Yan Ze!
How could you use Ocean's loss to your advantage?
Between a heartbroken An Xi and Ocean's loss, which one's important?
Do you know what you're doing?
I want to be in love, and I want to run too.
There are a lot of things I want to try.
Give me a chance.
