Far Away Love Episode 24
What is it?
President, Chairman wants to see you tomorrow.
It seems like there are some shareholders that are not pleased with the Qingdao restaurant project.
President, are you listening?
Okay. I know already.
Shen An, we never doubted your capability to handle affairs.
But regarding the Qingdao project, we're a little puzzled.
Yesterday, we learned that the person-in-charge you sent to Qingdao used different means
to make sure to seal the deal on the seaside project,
regardless of the expenses. President,
can the Shen Group presently
still disregard expenses?
Let's not talk about anymore regarding the tea refreshment project in the past which completely failed.
The main project about the new coffee flavor that you personally are leading will have a market dry run soon.
You know better than other how strained our capital is right now.
Wasting manpower and resources for just one Qingdao project, is it worth it?
Regarding the restaurant, I have my own concept andI will never give way.
Hope fellow uncles can also stop being the chairman's lobbyist.
Shen An, business is business, private matters are private matters.
This has nothing to do with the Chairman.
All of us in the board have always been very supportive of you
because you are cool-headed, decisive, and bold.
But on the Qingdao project, we feel that you're not cool-headed.
If you obstinately cling to your belief and used a high price to get this project,
don't blame the board if we will not approve of this project.
Anyway, there's no rush to proceed with this project.
Since the opinion of everyone is in a deadlock,
why not delay it first and let's discuss it more.
I believe that Shen An has already understood
the discontentment and opinions of his uncles about this.
He will definitely make the appropriate changes.
Okay. then we'll leave now.
Shen An...
the displeased of those share holders regarding the restaurant project
is not because of me.
I know.
But regardless, you still won't stand on my side, isn't it?
Shen An,
aren't you married already?
Didn't you say that through this marriage, your past regrets have already been made up for?
Then how come you're still going to a lot of trouble
to build that restaurant for that girl?
Meng Chu Xia...does she know the story between you and that girl?
Yes, I previously told her but she doesn't mind.
Why? Now you want to use Meng Chu Xia to have me give up on this restaurant?
Chairman, I can explicitly tell you that
I will never give up on both the restaurant and Meng Chu Xia.
Shen An,
we should watch more closely the US coffee maker M Corporation.
They recently kept aiming at our US market.
Continuously pressuring and displacing us.
We must guard against them a bit more.
I know. I already arranged appropriate countermeasures.
Do you still have something else? If none, I'll be leaving already.
Between us mother and child,
there's seem to be no other things that we can talk about other than work.
Auntie, I can see that you don't look good these past few days. Are you sick?
I know a very good doctor.
Do you want me to let him come here and take a look at you?
Marvin, o Marvin...
Why can't you open your eyes and see that you have such a great girl by your side?
But instead chose to sink into that Meng girl's vortex and can't free himself anymore.
Auntie, actually...
I feel that Sister Chu Xia
is not grabbing hold of Brother Shen that tightly as you think she is.
These past days, I frequently had things to bother Brother Shen.
Sister Chu Xia not only didn't get jealous
but instead kept pushing him out.
Really?
Then do you think that this is just her 'letting loose in order to capture' tactics
or they really are not that intimate?
Little Shadow, tell me the truth.
If I create a chance for you and Marvin,
can you grab hold of it?
Auntie, Brother Shen and I, we are actually--
Fine. Fine. Stop saying brother and sister already.
These so many years, you think I don't understand your feelings towards our Marvin?
The reason why you won't let go of the brother-sister status
is because you're afraid that if you don't do that,
your Brother Marvin will not let you stay by his side.
No matter what the inside story about Marvin's marriage,
but I can see that
Marvin is not faking in safeguarding Meng Chu Xia.
Don't you feel that this thing
has already reached an irremediable point?
Auntie...the chance that you were talking about earlier...
is what?
I already told you.
If it can be settled, increase the price offer. You must suppress the other party.
The opinions of the Chairman and the board is not something that you should be minding.
Just that. Report to me anytime.
What is it?
President, do you still remember Qingdao's Zhong Ji Realty?
That time, the land that was owned by them was the one you liked the most.
But too bad, our people has difficulty getting it.
But just earlier, they called
and said that they are willing to reconsider working with us.
And they are also willing to accept the price that we previously offered.
Really? Then it means that there's a chance that we can close the deal with a price that the board will accept?
But they hope that
they can discuss things face to face with a higher official of the company.
Book the plane tickets. I'll go to Qingdao tomorrow.
Okay.
Hey, Meng Xiang, why didn't you even took a sip? I cooked this the whole afternoon.
I don't want to drink that. This thing has a weird taste.
A thing this expensive, how can you not drink it just like that?
And also, all tonics usually taste like this.
Come, just one gulp. Hold your breath. Drink it at one go.
- I'm not drinking it.- It's good for your health.- I won't drink it. I won't drink it.- Come, come, come.
- Hurry. Hurry.- You let him drink. You let him drink.
Meng Chu Xia, is this a tonic? It's more of water where you washed your socks with.
If you let Meng Xiang drink this, let's not talk about his exam tomorrow,
but just tonight, he won't be able to keep going already.
Just spoil this child.
Such an expensive thing, it's so wasteful to just throw it.
If the two of you won't drink it, then I'll drink it.
Isn't that just okay?
Hey, Meng Xiang, have you already prepared the stuffs that you're bringing tomorrow?
Pencil, eraser,
- ruler--- Okay already. I've already prepared them.
Then how about your clothes?
How about you wear that very red one?
Then pair it with that red jersey shorts, so cheerful and comfortable.
Do you want me to take my exam dressed up like a red child?
A red child is great.
You don't need to pay too much attention to others' gaze, do you know that?
What do you want to eat tomorrow morning? Soy milk? Fried dough stick?
Fried egg? Fried sausage?
Forget about it. Tomorrow morning, I'll just get up early to boil you a chicken soup.
Don't forget. Put the water you'll be bringing tomorrow in your bag later so as not to forget it.
But you shouldn't drink too much too.
What if you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of exam?
- That will affect your way of thinking.- Enough. Enough. Can you stop nagging already?
How can this be nagging?
All these are very important.
If you still treat them as nagging, then it means that you still haven't absorb them.
I'll repeat them to you. Listen well.
Pencil, eraser, water...
I initially plan to give this to you as a gift after your exam.
But I feel that you urgently need it now.
Mom, just continue talking.
Shen An, why do you keep undermining me in front of Meng Xiang?
Meng Xiang, take that off. I haven't finished yet.
I don't want to take it off.
- Take that off.- I don't want to.
Take that off.
Meng Xiang, don't let her get that.
This is an important life tool that you'll be using from now on.
What did you say?
Meng Xiang...
I haven't finished talking yet.
Give it to me.
Meng Xiang!
Give it to me!
Come!
This is just one small test in your life.
I believe that you can bravely and calmly accomplish it.
Don't worry.
She's still in the bathroom. Don't wait for her anymore.
Don't be late on your flight.
Meng Xiang...
You're not eating?
I'm not hungry.
Uncle Shen is gone so you don't even have an appetite anymore. Is that it?
This kid, what are you saying?
What's wrong with you?
You don't look good. Not feeling well?
Maybe because I've been having diarrhea since last night. It's no big deal.
Finish your meal first.
I'll check again later the stuffs we are bringing then we'll set out.
How about...I'll just ride a taxi on my own. You just stay here at home and rest.
How can I allow you to do that? It's not easy to get a taxis at this time.
What if you're not able to get one?
Don't say those useless things anymore. Hurry and eat.
I'll go to bathroom again and we'll leave afterwards.
Mom, I told you not to go with me anymore.
I'll just go the exam site by my own. You being like this now--
What's wrong with me now? I'm vigorous and lively.
You're already starting to break into cold sweats.
I'm just being excited. Let's not be late.
I'll just go on my own, okay?
Shen An...
Why are you back?
Meng Xiang, there's a mountain bike in the back of my car. You go to the exam site on your own.
I'll take your Mom to the hospital now.
M-m-meng Xiang! You shouldn't go on your own.
What if something happens?
You're High School Entrance Exam is just this once.
Chu Xia, he's already not a child. He should learn to take responsibility with his own life.
And now, I must take responsibility for you on behalf of Meng Xiang. Understand?
I...
Thank you for you trust.
In addition...Mom,
other than being at ease and recuperating for the next few days,
the thing that you must do is...wait for the notice of admission from No. 1 High School.
♫ The heart that hides love is searching ♫
Meng Xiang...
♫ The heart that has been hurt is doubtful ♫
♫ The ripple that once happened is the unforgettable loss ♫
♫ The heart that wants to love is determined ♫
♫ There's a touching ending ♫
♫ The surprise that once happened has been returned to zero ♫
President Shen, she had nitrite poisoning.
Mrs. Shen probably took in a lot of expired products yesterday.
But there's no big problem.
As long as she timely takes the medicines and take a rest for a few days, she will be fine.
I just know that it's that weird-smelling tonic that's the cause of this.
- Thank you, doctor.- You're welcome.
Will be well by this afternoon?
This afternoon? You might not even still be well by next week.
What are you doing?
I need to fetch Meng Xiang after his exam.
You also have heard his call earlier before he went inside the exam venue. He's very safe.
If he was able to go there smoothly, he can also go home smoothly.
Why must you insist to fetch him?
I really don't have the strength to argue with you.
No matter what, I must go and fetch him.
Fine. I'll give you 30 seconds.
Tell me the reason why you must go and convince me. Or else, you're not going anywhere.
I am his mother.
You still have 20 seconds.
Prince Shen, you studied in the US.
You don't understand the importance of the High School Entrance Exam to us.
10 seconds...
Shen An, Meng Xiang don't have a dad since he was born.
Afterwards, he was then abandoned by his biological mother.
You also know about these things.
He actually is very afraid to face this world alone.
A 15-year old child...
no matter how much he acts cool, this exam for him can't be just that plain and simple.
Even though he doesn't say it,
but deep inside he actually really wanted someone to accompany him.
I don't have much capability.
The things he usually eat, wear, and use are always inferior to his classmates.
Can't you at least let me accompany him at a time like this?
Time's up.
I've decided.
You must lie here for the next few days.
You can't leave this room by even one step.
Shen An!
Doesn't Meng Xiang still have me?
Hey, Meng Xiang, what's your answer on the last item?
Don't think about the answers after an exam.
Your mood will go sour.
You seemed to have come today on your own.
How come not one person was here to send you off? Where's your mom?
She's not feeling a little well today.
Is that for real?
Hey, Meng Xiang, is that your family's car?
So cool!
Is that your dad?
So young.
This car...
is not ours.
Kid, I especially drove here to fetch you. Why won't you get in the car?
That is your car.
Using the stuffs of others to brag is too childish.
Hey, kid, wait!
Chu Xia...
Wake up and take your medicines first before going back to sleep.
How come it's medicine time again?
It's every 3 hours for the first day.
Come, take your medicines.
How's M-m-meng Xiang?
Meng Xiang is sleeping soundly at home.
I already went home and checked on him once. Don't worry already.
Tomorrow morning, I'll drive him to the exam venue.
Still working?
Because I delayed the meeting time, the other party is a little unhappy.
Why are your lips so dry? Drink more water.
Mr. Jan? Why are you here?
You're awake.
These are easily digestable and stomach-friendly breakfast
that our President instructed Lontano Restaurant to especially prepare for you.
What is it? Do you want me to wake him up for you?
Don't.
He just sent Meng Xiang early this morning to school and has just came back not long ago.
Let him sleep for a more while.
Then okay. Ms. Meng, just do as you wish. Take a good rest.
Thank you.
Come, put it here.
It's still one's home that's best.
These two days, letting me just lie down in the hospital, so hard to bear.
If not because someone here
insisted on eating that weird tasting tonic,
how can she have a home that she can't go back to?
Causing Shen An
to take care of her nonstop for so many days.
Don't even have time to take a nap
and have to ride the plane already for a business trip.
Did you say thank you already?
What?
I'm asking if you have thanked Shen An already.
Today, what will we eat?
I'll go the refrigerator to take a look.
Don't look anymore. I never bought anything to start with.
Isn't this full?
Let me see.
Looks like Uncle Winkle Mollusc (a type of snail) came to our house.
Meng Chu Xia, first, congratulations for being discharged from the hospital.
Initially, I thought of asking the doctor to also do a brain check-up on you.
But after thinking about it well, this thing about your brain being bad
is better to stay a secret of this house.
Your stomach is still weak.
I've already placed several ingredients in the refrigerator
and left a cookbook.
During my business trip, I hope you can follow the cookbook in planning your meals.
Don't eat randomly.
Looks like Uncle Winkle Mollusc was really very thoughtful.
Not like some people
who doesn't even cared to ask where he'll be going for his business trip.
I...why must I be concern about him?
Mom...
Could it be that you really are not noticing how good Shen An is?
Meng Xiang...
you are completely showing signs of Stockholm Syndrome.
You're right. He indeed has looked after us all along.
But don't forget, that all of these are built upon the foundation of him forcing himself into our lives.
Discussing about this is totally meaningless. Anyway, you have already finished with your high school entrance exam.
We will be moving out soon.
It's okay to move out but I have one request.
Can I stay and live with Shen An?
If you stay, how about me?
This...
You kid...
You are going to abandon me for Shen An now. Is that it?
President, for Meng Chu Xia,
you delayed your Qingdao schedule.
Is she already that important to you?
She's my wife.
President, is it because--
Oh, right, have you already found out the reason why Qingdao Zhongji Realty suddenly decided
to reconsider our offer?
Brother Shen.
Ms. Qiao.
Little Shadow? Why are you here?
The reason why the Qingdao project this time was able to move forward
is totally due to the Qiao Family's connections in Qingdao.
That's why, this time, we have to ask Ms. Qiao to appear personally
and help us in our talks with our Qingdao counterparts.
I also just suddenly heard James mentioned it and then called my Dad afterwards.
Never thought that he really was able to help.
So that's what happened. Really thank you for this.
Brother Shen, your thing is my thing.
Being able to help you solve some worries makes me very happy.
Let's go then.
Let's go.
Please.
Uncle Wu, hello. This is the president of Shen Group Corporation, President Shen.
This is Uncle Wu.
Hello.
This is our corporation's Director Zhang.
This is Director Wang.
This is our corporations's Director Li.
- So pleased to meet you.- Then let's go in.
Mom, how many times must you eat this white pill? There's no instructions at all.
I don't know. It was Shen An who gave me those medicines while I was at the hospital.
Always relying everything to that Shen An.
Look. At this side, you can walk about 3-5 minutes and you'll arrived there.
Beside it, there's a very big shopping mall.
This shopping mall is very near this place.
That's why, look, this location is very good.
If we are able to closed this deal,
this place, for both us, is so perfect. Isn't it, Director Li?
- That's right.- Take a look at these too.
This position is so good. Everyone, please look.
Hello, Sister-in-law.
Auntie Qiao?
Oh, Little Meng Xiang.
Right. I'm your Sister Jia Ying.
Auntie Qiao, why is Shen An's cellphone with you?
This I also don't have a way. Brother Shen doesn't want to go to Qingdao alone.
He insisted that I accompany him.
We are currently in a business meeting.
That's why, he asked me to first answer the phone for him.
Do you need anything?
It's really not a big thing.
I just want to ask him when he'll be back?
This, I can't be sure yet.
Maybe after we closed this deal, we might tour around Qingdao for 2 more days.
Oh, right, your Mom doesn't know yet that I'm went with Brother Shen to Qingdao, right?
Then have to trouble you to relay it to her.
Tell her not to worry. I will take good care of Brother Shen.
Okay. I will definitely tell her.
Then good. Just that for now.
Meng Xiang...
Qingdao...
What is it that you're going to tell me?
Eavesdropping has become a habit of yours already?
It's an insurance broker. You like to hear it?
No. Let's eat.
I forgot to tell you
that Liu Bing invited me for lunch. I'll leave now.
Remember to eat your medicines.
Hey, Meng Xiang, how many of those pills should I take? Did you ask already?
The condition is like this.
If both parties reached a common inclination, then we can sign.
One period of validity is 10 years.
One period of validity is already enough.
Hey, why did you look for me here on your own?
Now that your finished with your high school entrance exam, you want me to take you out behind Chu Xia's back?
What's wrong? Did something happened?
Qingdao trip for two? Your company's so great!
An anniversary raffle will have this kind of prize?
Why are you frowning?
Isn't this just right for you and Mr. Wei to go on a trip?
The problem indeed lies with Wei Zheng De.
Let me tell you. The largest prize I every got from a raffle is a bag of washing detergent.
This time, it's not easy to finally be able to win a trip for two prize,
but in the end, just great, Mr. Wei Zheng De just called me a half an hour ago
to tell me has something to do. He stood me up!
Meal, lodging, and travel fees will all be paid by our company.
Such a good chance and it's all gone.
How much will this cost?
Such a pity.
Can't you ask your company if you can travel on a later date?
It's not allowed.
Mr. Wei Zheng De always say that he's busy with work.
He has already dragged this for a week.
The company said that the plane tickets these 2 days is so cheap and is discounted.
This is the last deadline. If I still don't go,
this chance will be terminated already.
That's too bad.
Chu Xia...
How about you go with me?
I really can't.
Shen An just left. If I also leave, who will take care of Meng Xiang?
Mom, grandpa and grandma called earlier and told me
to go live with them in the city outskirt for a few days.
I've already packed my things. I'm leaving now.
You child, why didn't you discuss it with me first?
What's to discuss about this? You won't allow me to go there?
No. Go. Go. Go.
I'm going then.
Too bad.
Meng Chu Xia,
just go with me then.
This is Heaven's will.
Shen An went on a business trip while Meng Xiang went back to your old home.
What a wonderful chance this is!
I can't go.
I've already booked you a flight.
Better to just drop it.
Meng...Chu...Xia... are you going or not?
Hello, Fei Fei. Where are you now?
How come it's taking you too long to go home and pack your things?
Hello, Chu Xia, I was just about to call you.
Do you know who came to my house?
Wei Zheng De's parents! My future in-laws.
Hey, Auntie, please have a seat first.
Chu Xia, with such an important moment, you think I can just leave?
Then what should we do?
The plane will be leaving in less than an hour. Will you be able to make it on time?
Aiya, what making it on time are you still talking about?
Look, they are already here. I must at least stay to accompany them these few days.
Then fine. I'll also just go home.
No. For what reasons?
Meng Chu Xia, how about this?
I'll first cancel my flight.
And then I'll go look for someone to be with you later.
You think...how about Senior Teddy?
I and Senior Teddy going together? How can that be? That totally won't do.
Aiya, Auntie, that...please sit for now.
I'll be there right away.
Aiya, Chu Xia, look, I'm quite busy here.
I'll call you later, okay?
Fei Fei, how about let's just forget about this trip?
No. No. No. You mustn't.
Meng Chu Xia!
If you dare go home now,
you're not my friend anymore.
Oh my god! You're just wasting my several thousands worth of plane ticket here.
Anyway, you decide on your own.
Flight no. CH9228 to Qingdao
will be leaving soon.
What to do?
Er Peng...
Hello, Chu Xia.
Er Peng, there's this thing.
Presently, there's an opportunity to travel to Qingdao
with lodging, meals, and tours all for free.
Do you have time to go with me?
G-go to Qingdao? All free?
Right. That...Fei Fei, it's a prize from their company.
But Fei Fei has something to do and can't go. Are you free?
That's free lodging and meals. Only a stupid person will not go.
Chu Xia, you go ahead first. Then tomorrow morning, Ouch!
What's going on? Hello? Hello?
We're done. We're done. We definitely have been found out.
From my understanding of Meng Chu Xia,
she still most likely don't have the intelligence to notice this.
That can't be. This is such a big loophole.
Chu Xia, I was not careful earlier and hit the table corner.
Then...then...you must come tomorrow, okay?
- See you tomorow. See you tomorrow.- That's great!
See you tomorrow. Bye bye.
Okay. Okay. See you tomorrow.
- I'm more at ease now.- Flight CH9228 to Qingdao
will be leaving soon.
So not easy. Mission accomplished.
- Yeah!- Yeah!- Yeah!
Yeah!
I already told you guys, with me stepping in,
what thing can't be done?
Hold it already. It was because you earlier that we almost got found out.
That's right.
From now on, don't accept Meng Chu Xia's calls.
Don't replay to her messages. Got it?
I have something I don't understand.
This Shen An is with Chu Xia everyday.
Then what's wrong with Qiao Jia Ying going there? Isn't it just for 2 or 3 days?
And also, she's just a sweet, little girl. She doesn't really have much damaging effect.
I think that you guys are just exaggerating this.
Oh, please.
Even Meng Xiang can see the motive of Qiao Jia Ying towards Shen An.
How come you instead got poisoned by that White Rabbit monster? (bewitched)
Business trip is the most effective mean in sealing relationships between a man and a woman.
Relationship is like war.
Don't say that it's just 1 or 2 days.
Even if it's just 1 night, it can let the enemy lay siege and plunder a town, not leaving anything untouched.
I already know ever since that you will join the Shen An-Meng Chu Xia love team camp.
I've waited for you so long already, little comrade.
If you say it like that, I understand now.
Your camp has always being suddenly siege by someone else.
Including this present Mr. Wei.
But Fei Fei...
even if I totally accept losing to Mr. Wei,
but I will still continue to look into your camp from a distance.
Will never leave you.
Don't. You are a nuclear weapon in relationship wars.
When you appear, the whole world will be in danger.
It's better that you spare me already.
Enough. Enough.
Auntie Fei Fei, what will be our next step?
I know! To feign under cover of a diversion.
To create something out of nothing.
The guest acting as the host.
What do you mean?
You don't understand?
It means...to listen to everything your Auntie Fei Fei says.
So happy that President Shen can travel from afar to come here.
Come, let's all have a toast. Come.
Okay. Here.
Let's eat. Let's eat.
Hello. The number you dialed is already powered off.
Brother Shen, you're worrying about Sister-in-law?
Didn't I already tell you earlier?
Meng Xiang already called earlier. He said there's nothing to worry.
Looks like Brother Shen is more and more inseparable to Sister-in-law already.
Your face has already changed just by thinking about her.
It's not because her. I just didn't sleep well for the past days.
Really? Why didn't you say so earlier?
If I know earlier that you're not feeling well, I wouldn't have let you come to this gathering anymore.
It's fine.
I should attend this for sentiment and reason.
President Shen
Really so happy today. I'll give you a toast.
President Wu, I'm the younger one. I should be the one to give you a toast.
Uncle Wu, so sorry.
Brother Shen didn't get to rest well these past days. He doesn't feel well.
I'll drink for him instead. Is that okay?
Little Jia Ying already know how to drink?
It's okay if you want to block it for him. The two of you have an intimate relationship to begin with.
Then, I'll drink this all first. You just drink as much as you can.
You're an elder and you already drank all of it, how can I just drink as much as I can?
- Here.- Okay.
Not bad. Not bad.
Make sure not tell my dad. Or else, he'll be angry again.
Of course not. Come. Sit.
Come. Fill it to full. Please pour some more wine.
Little Shadow, you don't need to block the alcohol for me.
I'm fine.
You're here because of me. It's just right that I block the alcohol for you.
It's fine.
Uncle Li, come.
Director Wang,
come. I'll give you a toast in behalf of Brother Shen.
Please sit down. Sit down.
Come, President Shen, let me give you a toast.
This, I'm sorry.
I'll drink for him. I can drink.
- Ms. Qiao is really so straightforward.- Come. Bottom's up.
Please drink. Please.
Thank you.
Please sit down.
- Please sit down.- Sit. Sit. Sit.
Auntie Fei Fei, it's more or less time already.
I've checked Meng Chu Xia's flight. She departed on time.
She should arrive at Qingdao after at least 10 minutes more.
Meng Xiang, do you have a feeling of
'planning in the seclusion of one's tent but able to determine the outcome of a distant battle'?
This is the command center for Meng Chu Xia's counterattack.
I hope that that Qiao Jia YIng will not disappoint my heavy expectation of her.
If the enemy is too weak, then there's no fun in playing too.
Hey, Fei Fei, then based on your analysis, what will this Qiao Jia Ying do?
Do you still need an analysis for that?
Don't you know that I am the ancestor of those 'White Rabbit (sweet/weak women) Pretenders'?
If I guessed it right, they will be doing business in the morning and having business socializing events at night.
During the drinking sessions, that white rabbit pretender
will pretend to be very magnanimous and acting fitting to the occasion, able to respond with ease.
She will then find a chance to make herself drunk and then...
You're not allowed to listen.
May I ask if there's any man that can resist
a young and beautiful drunk girl?
