♬ That night, sand got into my feelings ♬
Instructor.
♬ My eyes couldn't contain anything ♬
♬ My ears could only hear the rain ♬
Thank you.
♬ How come you can't find any reason? ♬
♬ It is simply just a little, beautiful excuse ♬
♬ You threw a warm, soft, sturdy rope towards me, ♬
♬ The me that was in the valley ♬
♬ Loss, longing, jealousy have all come from your mouth ♬

What's wrong?
Nothing. I'm just curious as to why Auntie Rui has a violin.
It's not mine.
My husband left it behind.
- Your husband can play the violin? - Yes.
He studied music. I studied dance.
We met while studying abroad.
May I take a look?
Sure.
This violin has been maintained really well.
This is my husband's most valued possession.
So I want to help him maintain this violin in its best state.
You really love your husband.
He also really loves me.
Our relationship is like music and dance.
Interdependent and inseparable.
Music and dance are like a couple in love.
As long as you find the most compatible person, you'll be able to blossom the most beautiful flower.
But, no matter how perfect a love is, it can not outrun fate.
The sound of him playing the violin can only stop and remain in my memory.
Can I try?
Sure.
You know how to play the violin?
Actually, my mother was a music teacher,
so I learned a little when I was young.
Ever since he left, this violin has not made a sound.
I always thought I would only be able to hear its sound
and remember him in my memories.
But now, it's as if he has returned to my side,
happily talking to me and playing the violin for me.
Auntie Rui, may I have this dance?
I haven't danced in a long while, I'm afraid I won't dance well.
The sound of a violin, without dance to accompany it, will be lonely.
Please wait.
What is wrong with this Dumb Pig Yang? Is he doing this on purpose?
Mr. CEO, I will report today's schedule to you.
At 10 a.m., the Sales Department will give a report regarding the sales performance review they submitted yesterday.
And at noon, you have an appointment with Xiang Fa Group's Director Liao. I've already booked the restaurant.
I got it. Anything else?
There's nothing else. If there's nothing else you require of me, I'll get back to work.
Wait.
Is there something else you need me to do?
No.
Don't you have anything else to say to me?
No.
No?
No.
Are you sure? Do you want to think about it again?
You know, yesterday?
Yesterday?
Are you talking about the caterpillar?
Mr. CEO, don't worry, I'm not taking that too hard anymore.
Who's talking to you about caterpillars? I'm talking about last night. Last. Night.
Did something happen last night?
You—
How can you do that to me and not feel even a single ounce of guilt?
And the main thing is, you dare to forget?
Mr. CEO, if you have anything to say, you can just say it.
Did something happen last night?
Forget it. Leave.
Mr. CEO...
I said there's nothing. You can leave now.
Okay.
Fine, Yao You Zhen. Not showing a care in the world after doing that to me.
Fine, I won't care either. Whoever cares first, loses.
It's just a kiss!
Last night?
I didn't do anything to provoke him last night.
What on Earth is he talking about?
Hey, Mei Yu, let me ask you: Did the CEO contact you last night?
No.
So, the CEO couldn't possibly have known that
we both went to the KTV to sing and drink, right?
Of course, he doesn't know. No one told him.
Exactly, so the CEO couldn't possibly have gone to the KTV last night.
No way.
Did anyone else come last night?
No.
That's weird.
I remember, I remember!
You Zhen, did your boyfriend pick you up last night?
My boyfriend?
What boyfriend? I don't have a boyfriend.
But when you answered the phone last night,
your voice became totally cutesy. If it wasn't your boyfriend, then who was it?
And I saw you that you drank so much, so I helped you text him
and told him to take you home.
[I'm in room 5 at the KTV on Fu Xing Nan Road. Hurry and pick me up. Love you. XOXO.]
No way. So last night the CEO might have gone to the KTV?
♬ Yeah, is it possible for us to meet again? ♬
♬ Have you already found someone else to protect you? ♬
So the CEO might have gone to the KTV last night?
It's Yang Zhen Kai.
Oh? Then you must be very dumb! (The "Kai" in Yang Zhen Kai's name is part of a slang term that refers to a simple-minded and dumb rich male who gets swindled out of his money by females.)
Are you a dummy? (The "Kai" in Yang Zhen Kai's name is part of a slang term that refers to a simple-minded and dumb rich male who gets swindled out of his money by females.)
I didn't do anything to him that I shouldn't have... Right?
So you really did see Yang Zhen Kai there last night?
Your theatrical stage play of "The Daring Secretary's Hottie CEO: At Your Mercy"...
When did it start? Why didn't you tell us?
How disloyal!
Don't try to sneak attack me, I'm not Wu Yi An.
I told you, there's nothing between us. Always talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sew your mouth shut.
If there really wasn't anything between you, then why did you do that last night?
What did I do? What did I do with Yang Zhen Kai?
Did you lose your memory after drinking?
You better tell me quick.
Last night, you were like this. You grabbed Yang Zhen Kai's face and then...
No way! I kissed Yang Zhen Kai yesterday?
Oh, my God.
You didn't only kiss him, you kissed him longingly and lovingly.
Like you couldn't bear to part ways.
Who's talking about caterpillars? I'm talking about last night. Last. Night.
Did something happen last night?
Last night...
Oh, my God, Yao You Zhen.
Losing yourself after drinking? Fine. But losing yourself to the point of kissing a dumb pig?
What on Earth am I doing?
Calm down. You already kissed him.
Besides, Yang Zhen Kai isn't ugly. It's technically your gain.
What do you mean gain? Do you think I'm that desperate?
Also, Wu Yi Xin, such an embarrassing thing happened to me,
yet you didn't even tell me yesterday or today?
And when I called you this morning, you didn't answer.
My phone was dead.
And I was thinking maybe you wanted to have a secret office relationship.
Secretary and president, both in an office
alone as man and woman, caught in a moment of heated passion,
and then suddenly BAM!
Wu Yi Xin, can you stop your ridiculous little girl fantasies?
I told you, there won't be any relationship between that Yang Zhen Kai and I.
Th-That was a stain in my life.
A single mistake. And a... dark past!
Yao You Zhen, calm down, calm down.
Deep breaths.
I just remembered, my sister and the instructor
have been stuck in the mountains for 2 days.
The two of them won't possibly... alone as man an woman, caught in a moment of heated passion...
and then BAM!
Wu Yi Xin.
- Go take your medicine. - What?
Go take your medicine.
What?
It was just a kiss.
Don't be sad.
I'm screwed.
[CEO's Office]
Come in.
Mr. CEO, I have a personal matter I would like to discuss with you.
Personal matter? Do you want to talk about what happened that night?
Sure, let me see what you have to say.
Go ahead.
That night, I lost control of myself.
I apologize, Mr. CEO.
I knew you still remembered.
Yesterday, you pretended to play stupid. Now what?
Moved by your conscience?
I'm really sorry. This event caused you to be upset. It's all my fault.
Of course, it's your fault.
I admit it. So, Mr. CEO, no matter how much you want to resent or blame me,
I won't complain.
However, I hope, Mr. CEO, that you can understand that this matter was... purely an accident.
Accident? You're saying this was an accident?
Yes, it was an accident.
Yao You Zhen, let me tell you: An "accident" is something that happens unintentionally by mistake.
But this matter is clearly, you...
You forced yourself on me. You did it on purpose!
It really wasn't on purpose.
If, Mr. CEO, you really mind—
Who minds? Why would I possibly mind?
If you don't mind, then that is a relief.
Since we've come to a consensus that the kiss had nothing to do with love between a man and a woman,
and we are both adults,
let's use an adult-like method to take care of it.
Mr. CEO, please forget that kiss.
Easy for you to say.
How is one supposed to forget something like this? You tell me.
I can only say I'm extremely sorry.
Yao You Zhen, do you think that just a simple apology is enough to cover everything up and pretend like nothing happened?
Let me tell you: That's impossible.
If this matter has caused you, Mr. CEO, to feel very wronged and very uncomfortable,
then as long as it's within a reasonable limit, I am willing to compensate you in any way.
Compensate?
Excuse me, but the harm has already been done. How are you going to compensate for it?
Anything that will help your heart feel at ease, Mr. CEO.
As long as it's something I'm capable of doing, I will do my best.
Anything that will make me feel like it's fair is okay, is that right?
Yes, that's right.
What are you doing?
Then let's make it fair.
♬ Yeah, is it possible for us to meet again? ♬
♬ Have you already found someone else to protect you? ♬
Then let's make it fair.
Mr. CEO, the Sales Department Manager—
It seems I forgot to bring some of the information. I'll come back later to give you the report, Mr. CEO.
Then...we'll take our leave first.
Then I'll get back to work.
Yang Zhen Kai, I kissed you because I was drunk.
What did you mean by kissing me?
I let you feel what it's like to be forced into a kiss. Weren't you the one who said you'd let me get even?
So the method that you wanted to use to make it even was this?
Yang Zhen Kai, you're really too much.
Yang Zhen Kai, what are you doing?
Why did you have to act on impulse and kiss her? Where did your rationality and cool-headedness go?
Why is it that every time I come across Yao You Zhen, I end up losing my cool?

If you really don't like Yi An,
then... think of a tactful way to tell her.
Wu Yi An, I have something to tell you.
Your intentions... I think—
What intentions?
It's nothing.
Auntie Rui, where's Yi An?
She went to use the restroom.
Were you trying to say something to me earlier?
Auntie Rui, I'm done!
Instructor, you're here, too?
- Here, give them to me. - Okay, thank you.
Then I'll leave this to you.
I'm a little tired, so I want to go rest.
For dinner tonight, I'll let you guys eat instant noodles. Is that okay?
Or what about... if I cook for dinner tonight?
But you're the guest! That's no good.
It's okay. We're staying and eating here for free, so it's only right for us to help out.
Leave dinner up to me!
Okay, then I won't argue. I'm heading in now.
Okay.
Wu Yi An—
Instructor, can you take this back to the room for me?
I have to prepare for dinner now.
This early?
Please, thank you!
Wu Yi An, you can do this. It's just a couple of dishes.
No problem.
First... turn on the fire!
And then... add oil!
I haven't cut the ginger yet.
- Wu Yi An. - Huh?
Instructor, h-h-hold on for a second.
Are you looking for me for something?
I have something to tell you.
About... the present...
Present?
That... I want to say...
What's that smell?
Ahh! It's burning!
Hey, turn off the fire first!
♬ The rim of my eyes are wet and hot; you caused this ♬
♬ My palms are empty and cold; you caused this ♬
♬ I heard that it was true that at the end, you left ♬
♬ Living without love ♬
♬ I was the choice that was forgotten; you caused all of this ♬
♬ How come it doesn't hurt when my heart breaks? ♬
♬ How come I'm not happy when I smile? ♬
♬ Clearly I was the person that was let down, but how come I am being wished well? ♬
♬ Yeah, is it possible for us to meet again? ♬
♬ Have you already found someone else to protect you? ♬
What did you bring with you?
Guinea pig.
What a cute guinea pig!
You Zhen, you like rodents?
Yeah! Don't you think he's cute?
Ugh! No, I don't.
Then why are you giving him to me?
The security guard said someone wanted to gift that to you.
That nice? Someone's giving me a present?
Don't know who it is. The person from the pet shop didn't say anything either.
But You Zhen, you really don't even know who it's from?
I don't know. I can't figure it out either.
Then it must be a secret admirer!
How considerate! They even figured out what you like!
Gifted presents... have to be gifted straight into the heart!
You Zhen, you can consider this one!
Stop guessing blindly, concentrate on your work.
Didn't you say that you were going to organize the information for the meeting?
Right! I have to go to the Sales Department to get the information.
[CEO Yang Zhen Kai]
Come in.
Did you gift me this guinea pig?
Yes, I'm the one who gifted it.
I've thought about it. That kiss earlier... was in fact impulsive of me.
So this is an apology?
It's just my intention to compensate you a little.
I hope this matter will end here, and that we'll never bring it up ever again, okay?
Of course, if you feel it is not enough, I can still give you something else to compensate.
There's no need. Since you had a sincere intention, I'll accept this apology gift.
It's not an apology gift, it's compensation!
Okay. If saying it like that will put you at ease, then we'll say it like that.
I'm sorry for disturbing you regarding personal matters. I'll get back to work now.
[CEO Yang Zhen Kai]
Then from now on, you'll keep me company at work, okay?
Who knew that such a fierce woman would like these kinds of cute little animals.
How are you so cute?
[Wolf in the Mountains: I heard your CEO is in a relationship with You Zhen?]
[How is it that even someone in the middle of nowhere like you is asking?]
[Wolf in the Mountains: Hey~ So does that mean the rumors are true?]
[Alright! Quit gossiping!]
Hello? This is Mei Yu.
What?! No, no, it's not what you think!
Oh, I'm not talking anymore. I'm hanging up!
- You Zhen. - - Hmm?
What's wrong?
Our fellow employees in the company are all talking about...
Talking about what?
About how you and the CEO are in a relationship. Is it true?
Where did you hear that ridiculous rumor from?
It's not what it looked like.
You're really... not in a relationship?
We're not.
The CEO and I are merely supervisor and employee.
100% guarantee there's nothing else going on.
You just stop running your imagination, and don't say any nonsense. Got it?
Okay, I understand.
But, You Zhen, aren't you worried?
Now it's already spread throughout the entire company!
An innocent person knows that they're innocent. Such a ridiculous rumor, there's no point in paying attention to it.
And you. Don't go around spreading false information with everyone else. Focus on doing your work.
Yes, Ma'am.
- Mr. CEO. - Hello, Mr. CEO.
Making that little rascal live in such a small house is simply animal cruelty.
Move him into a mansion.
And... it's about time. Are the materials for the meeting at the factory all ready?
They're all ready.
- Then... let's go. - Okay.
[Secretary's Office]
And she said that they're not in a relationship. They even bought a house!
A mansion!
Thank you.
- Here, it's ready now. - Okay, thank you.
Auntie Rui, I'm really sorry. I turned your kitchen into a mess...
It's not your fault.
I'm the one who put honey in the oil bottle and caused you to mistake it for oil.
Besides, it's okay that the kitchen is a mess.
As long as I get to eat food cooked by a good-looking chef, I'm very happy.
Since you're happy, then eat more!
It's been a long time since I've had company over, chatting, laughing, and eating dinner like this.
In the future when we get the chance, we can still come eat dinner with you like this, Auntie Rui.
- Really? - Uh-huh. - Don't lie to me.
We won't, Auntie Rui. We'll definitely come back again.
Oh, that's right! I contacted the village chief earlier.
The roads will be fixed by tomorrow. You'll be able to go home.
That's great!
To commemorate our rare fate, let's take a picture.
Okay.
Here, let me take one for the two of you first.
- Huh? We— - Yeah, you two go first.
Why are you making that face? Is something wrong?
Nothing... Let's take one.
Okay.
Okay, I'm taking it now.
Done.
Not bad. A lovely couple.
Just like a pair of real lovers.
Auntie Rui, we're not—
I know. Why are you so nervous?
I...
Okay, I'll stop messing with you.
Now, let's take one with the three of us together.
Okay.
- I'll do it. - Okay, Yi An, you take it.
Look here. 1, 2, 3.
- Okay. - Okay, let me see.
Take a look.
Not bad.
- After the signal comes back, I'll send you two the pictures, okay? - Okay.
Okay. This delicious meal must be accompanied by delicious wine.
I have this delicious wine that I've cherished and kept for many years to share with you. Here.
- I'll get the cups. - Okay.
Wow!
- It smells so good! - Really?
Here. Cheers to our rare fate and friendship.
Cheers!
- It's good! - It's good, right?
Heavy... so heavy... careful...
Come on. Stairs, stairs!
Okay, up, come on.
Oof.
This... foot... careful, there's a step.
It must be because I had some alcohol earlier, or else why would it be so hot?
Instructor! Careful...
Instructor, we're almost at the sofa. Quick...
Careful...
Come on!
Okay, okay, ahh!
Instructor. Instructor!
Instructor, get up!
Instructor!
Get... up...!
Oh, forget it. So tired.
Who would've thought... the instructor doesn't look so mean when he's asleep.
Isn't this really nice? Why does he have to make such a mean face all the time?
What am I doing?
She covered me with this sweater...
