Episode 5
It's okay, it's okay.
- The wound isn't deep. Just don't let it touch water.- I know.
Save it.
I officially announce, starting from now,
stay away from all the knives and scissors used in the house.
Aw...
Look, Mom cares about you more than me.
I'm not worrying, I'm hurt.
I'm worried about my future grandson.
My future grandson's mom is so irresponsible.
Then how scared and worried will I be when the child is growing up
that he wouldn't get hurt.
Mom, that's enough.
Lala didn't cut her finger on purpose.
She is already really pitiful, stop condescending her.
Who's being condescended?
Aiyo, Honey, why is your face so pale?
Did you lose too much blood?
Mom, mom, you have to make some fish soup tomorrow.
Or make chicken soup.
Oh, make some soft-shelled turtle soup.
Why? Is she in postpartum confinement?
If she's really in her postpartum confinement, then I'm happy to make her any kind of soup.
The fruit is here.
You worked hard.
Wow, your knife work is excellent.
No, Teacher, you are exaggerating. It's nothing.
Nothing?
With this much skill, at restaurants
you can sell it for 48 dollars.
- No, 65 dollars.- Da Wei Ge, you're making fun of me again.
You don't need to be jealous or hate her.
She learned cooking with my mom for a few years.
That's why she cut it up so well.
Wait,
isn't Chen Li, Mom's student?
I remember mom taught health, but she also taught cooking?
This you don't know.
Qian Qian has a special relationship with our family.
Qian Qian lived at our house before.
Lived at your house?
I've never heard you talk about it.
That... Chen Chen's mom is my mom's friend.
At that time, she was always at work and worried about Qian Qian's safety,
so she asked my mom to take care of her.
But if her mom wasn't there, what about her dad?
Mom.
Teacher, no big deal.
This is all in the past, I've learned how to handle everything.
Actually,
when I was little my dad
had someone else,
so he left me and my mom.
When I was 15, my mom
got sick and passed away.
Sorry, I didn't know.
Don't worry, it's all in the past.
So in the future Da Wei Ge and Teacher Lu
are my family. I'll treat this place like home.
That's right, Qian Qian, this is our fate.
Look, I'm in Shanghai and you are also in Shanghai.
So you treat this place like your home, come over anytime.
Let Da Wei Ge take you to fun places.
Da Wei Ge, okay?
Okay.
Let's eat fruit.
Ok, here.
Wait, Qian Qian.
Let me ask you a question
This strawberry, what is its other name?
Strawberry.
But someone just don't know.
Mom, it's not because I don't know...
It is because I don't know.
Lala Jie doesn't know?
I don't know.
She doesn't know, so you have to teach her.
Eat fruit.
Here.
Mom don't eat that strawberry.
I'll eat it.
You eat too.
Here.
Thanks, Mom.
Can you handle all this?
Really?
It was so funny.
- Mom, it's late. - Let Qian Qian go home.
Look her eyes are so red.
Really?
Mom, he's right.
She sits across from me at work.
She works very hard everyday. She only has some free time on the weekend and you're not letting her go.
No worries, I'm young. I'm not afraid of being tired.
You're young, but you can't waste time like this, right?
Your face is so moist, but if your eye bags fall to the ground
it won't look good, you have to take care of it.
That's right.
Mom, let's talk again another time.
- Qian Qian, I don't want you to leave. - Me too.
If possible, I wish you could just stay at our house.
But sadly, we don't have that many guest rooms.
Okay, I won't keep you any longer. Let's go, it's getting late.
Xiao Wei, give Qian Qian a ride.
Okay.
Take her home safely.
Ok.
Da Wei Ge will definitely send me home safely.
Safely take her home.
Okay.
Ok I'm leaving. Give me a hug.
- Next time, I'll stay. - I'll be home fast.
Quickly, quickly.
Take her home safely.
Ok.
Take care.
Call me.
Be careful.
- Bye bye. - Bye bye.
Lala, your hand is injured, I'll do it.
No, it's okay I can do it.
I'll dry it.
Lala, you should learn from Qian Qian.
She's younger than you,
but her abilities aren't far from yours.
And you should listen to what I have to say.
You should have a good relationship with Qian Qian.
In the modern days, if you want a good life you just need three things.
Relationships, relationships, and relationships.
Isn't that right?
Look,
my student Qian Qian is your colleague right now.
That's fate.
You must take advantage of this relationship, okay?
Right, you and Xiao Wei should pay attention.
See if there's any good houses.
Qian Qian is still staying in a hotel, such a waste.
You two take a look, near our community,
if there's any suitable houses, it would be great if it's in our community.
Then that's great, we'll be neighbors and can take care of each other.
Mom, our compound is really popular.
Usually it's for sale not for rent.
That's why I wanted you two to pay attention.
Look around, maybe one day someone wants to rent.
- Right?- Okay, okay.
Okay, it's done.
Just finish this up and rest early.
- Okay, I'll take care of this. - I'm going to take a shower.
She's everywhere.
Sorry, Da Wei Ge.
- Making you drive me home. - It's no problem.
You worked hard.
You stuck in the middle, must be hard.
Teacher's strong personality is still the same, haven't changed.
LaLa... even though I don't know her for that long,
but I can feel she also has a strong personality.
So it must be hard for you.
It's not bad.
I just need to act like their middle-man during times like these.
My existence is to reduce friction between them,
make sure all parts function properly.
Such great function.
LaLa is so lucky.
She has such a great husband.
Oh no.
I think people can be together is simply because
of fate. If you think she's lucky then I think I'm
luckier than her to find a good girl like her.
I'm curious, for someone as great as you.
What do you like about LaLa?
Lala is innocent.
Also she's passionate, hard working, and full of positive energy.
Also one other thing, she...
always look forward do not dwell in the past.
That's great. What's most important is that you feel happy.
How about you?
These years you haven't found a guy you liked?
Haven't met the right person yet?
Let's not talk about it. It's full of tears if we talk about it.
You are a good girl, why do you have such high standards?
It's not about high standards, you don't understand.
Du Lala, you are asking for trouble.
No, no, you are being trapped by two wolves.
It's not as exaggerated as you say.
How am I exaggerating? I have seen her.
She smiles like a flower, but you don't know what evil plan she has for you.
Now that she knows where you live, she is going to join forces with your mother-in-law soon.
Du Lala, you poor soul.
But seriously though,
ever since she came to the company, even though she's always smiling,
I just feel like something's not right. It's weird.
Do you think it's because I'm overthinking this?
Du Lala, you are so late to know.
Kathy just looks like trouble.
She is a so two-faced.
Do you still remember at the mall the other day, she said you should shop at the elder woman section?
Wasn't it obvious she's declaring war?
She's close to my husband and mother-in-law.
But she was so well-behaved when she came to our house today.
The nicer and well mannered she is, the more suspicious.
What era are we in? Even aggressors first use cultural output now,
and then engage in a sudden attack with nuclear weapons.
You said she's close to Wang Wei.
Be careful.
- What should I be careful of? - Be careful she might be eyeing your husband.
Even if you're not afraid of having him stolen away, be wary that she's eyeing him.
Why would she be eyeing my husband?
I'm already married to him. She wouldn't dare to seduce a married man.
Want to take a bet with me?
She definitely has a past.
Her eyes look very flirty.
You must protect Wang Wei, make sure he's not alone with Kathy.
If they are alone together,
then she would definitely try to act cute and call him Ge!
Do you understand? You have to remind your husband about this.
Alright, I got it. Don't you go scaring me.
Seeing you freak out over this.
This is just playing defense.
Trying to stay fireproof, theft-proof, and mistress-proof.
Nothing has happened yet. How can you call her a mistress?
You can tell who is a mistress right from the get-go.
Make sure to protect Wang Wei.
Limit their contact.
I get it, I get it! It's late, go to sleep.
Da Wei Ge, thank you for coming out with me today.
It's nothing. We're here.
Aye, What's that?
Disgusting!
So disgusting!
Da Wei Ge, thank you for sending me home today and accompanying me for groceries.
It's nothing.
Hurry home.
Oh, okay. I will get going.
Good night.
Da Wei Ge take care on the way back.
Bye.
So late...
Yeah, why are you still up so late?
You tell me. I'm waiting for you to apologize.
She said she wanted to grab some groceries, so it took so long.
Groceries? For that long?
She said her fridge was empty, so it took her a while to shop.
Don't you have a conference call tomorrow? Hurry and get some rest.
Huh?
How did you-
It's probably Qian Qian who told you.
Great. Work and home problems are mixed together.
You don't need to be so sensitive.
It's not bad to have someone you know at work.
Someone I know? You need to pick who you are friends with.
You think you be friends with just anyone?
What did I always tell you? I feel like Qian Qian...
well, I just don't have good feelings towards her.
I can understand when you guys have difference of opinion about work. She's also a strong competitor at work.
Anyways, since you have such a strong enemy,
it's not a bad thing. You can prove your skills this way.
It's fine if you don't want to help me, but don't belittle me.
How am I belittling you? I'm trying to look at this in a positive way.
I feel like you are this competition way too seriously.
I am taking this way too seriously?
I don't know. You seem conceited now. And for what? A parking spot?
Honey, I think it's good to be ambitious, but don't be too harsh are yourself.
You think I want to? I wanted the director position so I can earn more money.
I am paying for all the family bills right now.
Are you complaining about me right now?
You could have said you don't support me opening my own company in the beginning.
You supported me in the beginning, so I invested in it.
Now that cash-flow is slightly tight in my company,
you start complaining about paying all the bills alone. Is this how it should be?
Then what do you mean?
Your work is to build your company, while my work is full of conceit, right?
How are you so unreasonable?
I'm very reasonable.
In the future I won't ask about your work. Will that work?
- Are you going to bed? Hurry and sleep. - Yes, I'm going to bed.
You're sleeping on my side. How am I suppose to sleep?
I don't want you to sleep with me.
Mom, it's getting late. I'm going to work first.
- Okay, okay.- It's okay. Keep eating.
What's wrong with her?
Is she mad at you or me?
Nothing. She's just in a bad mood because she needs to work overtime on the weekend.
Don't fool me. Why did you sleep in the living room last night?
I know everything.
I fell asleep while watching TV.
Stop blindly guessing.
Just because you fell asleep while watching TV Lala got mad?
Mom, I'm leaving. Bye.
Bye bye.
- Be careful on the road.- Okay.
Be honest. There must be something going on between you two.
Don't worry over nothing. We are fine. Nothing's wrong.
When is my sister coming back?
It has been days since I came to Shanghai. She still hasn't come by.
Does she not want to come back from Suzhou?
There must be something going on.
Hold on beautiful miss.
- What are you doing?- Please wait a moment.
Everyone take a look. Did anyone lose anything? Look carefully.
My wallet is gone.
- Is this your wallet? - Yes, it's mine.
Security!
- Sir, is there something we can help with? - This guy stole a wallet.
I did not!
You didn't? Consider changing your career. You don't have a future in doing this.
I really didn't do it.
Thank you!
♫ Believe me, the blissfulness you wanted will never be late ♫
♫ It will be be revealed to you in the next second ♫
♫ Promise me, you have to keep smiling even on a cloudy day ♫
♫ The bad weather will be gone too (will be gone too)♫
Sir!
Thank you so much.
I'm sorry. If I wasn't in a hurry to meet a client I would treat you to a meal.
It's nothing don't worry about it.
I didn't even ask for his phone number.
There's no use even if I got it.
The Cafe Kacao

Ethan Chen?
Are you SH's Miss Wang?
Eh?
It's you? Ethan Chen?
Miss Wang, looks like you have to treat me to that meal now.
Looks like your company is destined to work with SH.
Let's talk business first.
Are you done? Let's go.
Sorry, Lala Jie.
Looks like Kathy gave me all this. I have to work overtime.
This much work?
I don't think I can accompany you.
It's okay, you work hard. I'll go by myself.
- Is that okay? - It's ok. Go home after you're done. Don't stay too late.
Be careful on the road.
I look forward to working with you, Miss Wang.
I look forward to working with you too, Mr.Chen.
You don't have to be so formal with me. Just call me Ethan from now on.
Ethan, I am heading back to Shanghai tomorrow morning.
Since I still have some time right now, I would like to go take a walk.
But I am not familiar with the Suzhou area. Do you have any suggestions?
I'm sorry.
I really love Suzhou, but I actually spent most of my time abroad.
So I am not very familiar with Suzhou either.
So, where do you live?
I think I will be living in Shanghai next.
Shanghai? That's great!
We can keep in contact then!
Sure.
This is my closing work for my company.
I am not familiar with the area, but I can still accompany you on your stroll.
Since you are not letting me be formal with you, you should stop calling me Miss Wang then.
You can call me Li Li, all my friends call me that.
Sure.
Li Li, I look forward to working with you.
As do I.
- Hello. - Da Wei Ge.
Are you here to pick Lala Jie up from work?
They didn't tell you that she's going to bars after work tonight?
Bars?
Yeah, she said she wanted to experience the life of the millennials.
- Be careful. - Thank you.
Let's go.
Ethan, thank you so much for today,
accompanying me around. Next time you go to Shanghai, let me bring you around.
Sure, I trust that you know Shanghai better than I know Suzhou.
- Here. - Thank you.
- Bye. - Bye.
Am I dreaming?
Li Li, a tall, rich, handsome man from abroad.
He's totally your type!
I must not let go of this chance. After this, there might not be another one.
Hello?
Xiao Zhang, the work went smoothly.
I am coming back tomorrow morning.
Hey, Xiao Zhang, is there any gossip in the company today?
Happy?
When am I not happy?
I'm exceptionally happy today?
Either way it's not because of you.
Xiao Zhang, you are also a man. Help me analyze something.
If a woman that you just met confessed to you, how would you react?
Don't do it, please don't do it.
Who did you meet recently?
Your are such a great person. Is it really necessary?
There is no such thing as free lunch.
You better think over this carefully.
Let me tell you, men who make the first move is called 'chasing after'.
Women who make the first move is called 'subsidizing'.
Are you serious?
It's only little men like you who are afraid of women making the first move, right?
What if it's a tall, rich, handsome man?
Li Li, haven't you heard that a bystander knows best?
Sure, times are changing now.
Men still like women who are weaker.
Huh? This is weird?
Which tall, rich, handsome man did you meet recently? How come I don't know about this?
Let me tell you, there are a lot of wolves out there today.
They target your innocent girls. Don't fall for it.
It's not me. It's a girlfriend of mine.
Alright, enough talk. Bye.
Li Li, don't hang up yet.
What, what do you want?
Speak up!
It's like this. You have been gone for a while...
I've been feeling uneasy.
I want-
Ah, sorry what?
I can't hear you.
Li Li.
My mom is calling me. I'm going to hang up.
Hello?
Kathy Jie, hold on.
This is the report that you asked for earlier.
Good job.
Go shred it.
Shred it?
It's useless anyways.
I already told you at the beginning when you asked me to do this that it was useless.
But you said that I had to do it, and now that I am done with it,
you tell me to just shred it without looking at it?
Yeah.
To show that this was a meaningless task
was the greatest lesson.
Okay, everyone.
Our projects for the Human Resource team are just these few at the moment.
Lala, are you done with the summary reports?
- I am done. - Oh, you are done, good.
How about you Kathy? How's the recruiting going?
Honestly speaking, Boss Huang, it's difficult.
Because this project requires someone who know the company's infrastructure well,
if it's possible, I would like to ask for some help. Lala Jie, could you lend me Xiao Qian for 10 more days?
Huh?
Loan you for 10 days?
Lala, are you okay with loaning Xiao Qian to her for 10 days?
It's cool with me, but is Xiao Qian alone enough?
Yeah, it should be fine with just her.
The thing is, I worked on that project before
and it took me at most 7 days.
But right now, it seems like you have taken almost 2 weeks.
So did something happen?
If you need some other help, maybe I could help you out
because Xiao Qian is ultimately not as experienced.
Since I am already done with the summaries,
the next step with be the analysis, which cannot be delayed.
Lala is right, the analysis is important.
Kathy,
if you are not capable of handling your project alone you can ask Lala for help.
No problem, Lala Jie. If you need Xiao Qian,
I think I can handle this myself, no problem.
Alright then, Xiao Qian. Finish up what you have with Kathy Jie so that you can come back to helping me.
Alright, thanks, Lala Jie.
No, don't thank me. You should thank Kathy Jie.
She praised you in front of Boss Huang and the General Manager.
Hurry and thank her.
Thank you, Kathy Jie.
Alright, do you have anymore questions?
Hmm, no.
Alright, then that's it for today.
Let's go.
Home for rent
The lot above mine?
Has your lot been rented out already?
Yup, the internet is so convenient nowadays. I just put it up and I already have someone renting it.
I already received the deposit.
Who did you rent it out to? A young girl?
No, it's a 40 year old man. Family of 3 I think.
These kind of renters are more stable.
Right, right. This one is good, very stable.
- Alright, see you later. - Thank you.
This feels good!
Who is making so much noise in the morning?
Honey, go take a look.
Who is making so much noise?
Annoying neighbors.
Why is it still so loud?
Are they done yet?
- Is there anything else? - Put that there.
I feel like-
Put that one on that desk as well.
Da Wei Ge, watch out for your head.
So busy since the morning.
Hey, Lala Jie.
Oh, you woke up?
Oh, excuse me.
I'm having Da Wei Ge help me with my move.
No problem. I was just wondering what was taking him so long.
Do you want to come in or-
No, it's okay you guys go ahead.
I am just a hindrance. You guys do you.
You guys do you, Honey.
No, no, I was just coming up here to take a look.
Da Wei Ge, over there.
Help him out. He can't handle it himself.
Sorry, loan me him for a little.
No problem. I can loan him to you for another week.
Excuse me.
You guys are working hard.
So un-thoughtful.
You've fully moved in?
That's great.
Teacher Lu.
MuoMuoDa! (Kisses)
This is fate.
This is called... uh...
A neighbor near by is better than a relative far away.
A near neighbor is not as good as a neighbor next door.
Right!
You and I as neighbors can look out for each other!
It would have been even better if you lived across the hall.
Yeah.
Then I would go crazy.
Sorry?
Lala Jie, you are going crazy?
Why?
No.
I meant I am-
turning into a woman like wind.
- A woman like wind. - A wind (crazy) lady.
You see, Qian Qian sits across from me at work.
Now, she lives across from me after work.
I can't avoiding seeing you.
Our periods would probably match after a while.
Seriously, if your periods matched,
that would just make you guys sisters.
I still haven't asked you yet. How did you find this place?
I told them to keep an eye out for you
and see if there's anything around here for you, preferably within our own compound.
Th-This...
Actually, I asked my friends to look for places for me somewhere else.
I just wanted to find some place to settle down.
But there was nothing suitable, either bad location, or too expensive.
Then I realized that your compound is perfect.
So, I asked my friend to check it out for me, and there it is.
Right upstairs! Isn't this fate?
Yup, that lot was meant for her!
Are you done unpacking? Let me help you out.
No, I can figure it out on my own.
You can't do it on your own.
I know how hard it is to move.
How about this, Xiao Wei, Lala,
you two go help Qian Qian out upstairs.
I will cook down here.
Let's celebrate her arrival together,
and have a family dinner.
I love eating over at Teacher's.
MuoMuoDa! (Kisses)
Alright, don't just sit there.
Let's get going.
Everything else has been put away. These are the only ones left.
Qian Qian you really are a management major. Everything is labeled so clearly.
You know me so well. See, I even have pictures on those boxes.
Oh yeah, I kept looking at that just now.
Honey, we can learn this from her and it will be much easier for you to coordinate your clothes next time.
We have our own ways.
Da Wei Ge, can you help me move this over there?
- Sure. - Sure.
It's kind of heavy.
No, it's fine, thanks.
- Where do I put this? - Just put this right there, straight ahead.
Sorry.
It is a good idea.
Hey, Lala Jie.
Don't break my things. Just put it there.
Can you help me with something else?
- Sure. - Let's go.
I don't think it looks good vertical.
Make it horizontal.
- Horizontal? -Yeah.
Like this?
Actually, it looks better vertical.
Let's hang it vertical.
Do you know which way it's suppose to go?
I think it's whatever feels right.
Let me see...
It's better vertical.
A little more to the right.
A little bit more to the right.
I doesn't look good straight. It's better slanted.
Coming... This is the last dish.
Wow, chicken curry.
Yes.
Teacher, you still remember I liked chicken curry?
Of course I didn't forget that you loved to eat chicken curry.
Do you still remember
if you want to make good curry you must put
- coconut milk.- Coconut milk.
Mom, tonight you made it all curry flavored.
Curry Chicken, Curry Prawns, Curry Broccoli?
That's right.
I opened a packet of curry. I can't just put it in the fridge. I don't know when I'll eat it.
Um... Qian Qian likes eating it,
so I made a table of curry dishes.
Lala can't eat curry. She's allergic.
What? You can't eat curry?
Why didn't you tell me?
No, it's no problem, I can eat anything.
Ok.
Here's a solution.
You should have told me earlier you can't eat curry.
I would of made less dishes.
It's good that yesterday's meal has no curry in it.
Hurry heat it up and then you guys can eat it.
Sorry, Lala Jie, Teacher only made what I love to eat.
No, it's no problem. You're the guest.
Qian Qian, when I was free,
I went onto your classes Xiao Xiao Kai Xin site.
Do you remember Xiao Ding?
Yes, I know. Ding Jia Jia.
He's now a professor.
Such a big transformation.
When he was at school, he needed you to remind him three times before he handed in her homework.
Yes. Is he a professor now?
Wow. He use to say "I won't study again in my life."
Now he's studying his whole life.
I was saying back then that this child's ambitions need to be lured out.
When I was teacher I disagreed to the
split for liberal arts and sciences.
Side branches aren't good for a child's development.
Teacher, I always thought you were right.
It was very helpful. Foreign schools have a general system of education.
This is the tread.
Qian Qian, I was a good class teacher, no?
Of course.
Look how I've developed you all to have such talent.
You were the one most unexpected.
Why?
Intelligent, mature, and getting prettier.
When you were a kid you were like a monkey with a turtle-like hairstyle.
Turtle head.
Da Wei Ge, do you think I was like that?
When was I like a monkey and a turtle-like hairstyle.
That time I had short hair and Teacher said I didn't look like a girl, so I braided all my hair.
When you were little?
Every called you a little turtle.
Nonsense.
Come, come eat.
Sorry, you guys eat first. I have to answer a call.
Ok, come on.
Here.
Welcome back.
Hello, Xiao Qian. Yes, speak.
Okay, we'll talk at the meeting tomorrow.
See you tomorrow. Bye.

♫ Regrets are a part of life This is the best conclusion ♫
♫ The rest of the story will slowly move me ♫
♫ Our stubborn silence ♫
♫ Letting go with reddened eyes ♫
♫ Our story only lacks an ending I’m not afraid to try again ♫
♫ I will encounter what I want to encounter ♫
♫ Happiness, I wish for happiness ♫
♫ I will forget to remember the beautiful things we missed ♫
