[Beautiful Secret]
[Episode 03]
I made 11 hundred ($170 USD) today. Yeah!
How many times have I told you,
in this job, we can't rely too much on the elevator. You just won't listen to me.
Go home and train harder. Go! Go! Go!
I'm telling you, Jiang Meili, don't be arrogant.
You are only lucky.
Right, you only barely made it.
Seeing you guys in this state is making me sad.
Alright. I'll be nice and give you guys good news.
- What is this? - Let me take a look.
Jiang Meili! You played us.
All's fair in war.
Hello, Teacher Wang.
- Has Mr. Sun been back yet? - No.
Okay. Thanks.
No problem. I'll be off, then.
Rourou, Mommy loves you very much.
Rourou loves Mommy very, very much.
Mommy also loves your very much.
Rourou also loves Mommy very, very much.
Rourou.
Mommy misses you so much.
I am so lucky today. Little Red, you have worked hard.
Later, I will fill you up with gas
to add some energy.
- Auntie Zhang! - Meili.
- Here. - Red bean milk tea.
Batteries and lighter.
You have worked hard, Meili.
Only you are willing to bring me my supplies.
The other suppliers think I order too little,
so they drag it on and on.
It's on my way between deliveries anyway.
Besides, Auntie Zhang gives me extra spending money.
30 dollars (4 USD) a month! Does that even count as making money?
You can't look at it that way.
There is also water.
See, I'm always out running around every day,
so I oftentimes couldn't drink much water. If it wasn't for Auntie supplying me with water,
I would have to spend my own money to buy water.
This child,
always thinking of others.
Your mom must have done something very good in her last life
to be able to have such a mature and obedient daughter.
I'm the one with luck from my past life to be able to be my mom's daughter.
Look, Meili! It's Wang Xuan.
Those other singers - none of them can compete with her!
The songs she sings are excellent.
True, no matter how much you listen, you don't get tired of it.
Teacher Wang! Teacher Wang!
Teacher Wang.
Your necklace.
Thank you, thank you.
Teacher Wang. I have been your fan since I was little.
I grew up listening to your songs.
My mom told me that I had a lot of nightmares when I was little,
but after listening to your songs, I slept very well.
I don't mean to imply you are old.
I'm saying that you are as pretty as you used to be.
Thanks.
I really didn't think I could have a fan as young as you.
I am not young anymore! I'm 25 years old.
25? What a coincident!
Same age as Rourou.
Teacher Wang. Could I ask you to give me an autograph?
Of course.
Could you sign on my bag?
That way, I can see you everyday with it.
Okay.
Pen.
It's broken. It can't write anymore.
Don't worry.
Although I didn't bring a pen, I have this.
But... your lipstick will be ruined.
That lipstick looks like its very high quality and expensive.
That necklace is more important than my life,
so consider this my thank you.
The color is so pretty.
Alright, then I will gift you this as well.
Thanks!
You are welcome.
Rourou, Mommy loves you very much.
Auntie Zhang. Don't you think I am very lucky today?
I have seen Wang Xuan and also got to talk to her.
I didn't know she was so nice, polite,
and also generous. She even gifted me her lipstick.
Really?
It smells so nice.
I bought your favorite lotus cakes. Have some later.
Okay. Did you go to Sun Jinsheng's place again?
Starting next month,
stop renting the room from Sun Jinsheng.
Why?
I don't care about the money. I just feel very sorry for you.
Look, after each time you go there,
you always return with red eyes (from crying).
You have blamed yourself for 20 years.
It's time to let go.
But my daughter...
is missing because of me.
How do you expect me to let go?
I don't mean you should give up.
All these years,
haven't we worked hard on searching?
I only want you to take it easy.
Don't be so unhappy everyday, I -
No matter what,
we still have Ruolin, our daughter.
Back then, you married me and gave up on your career,
putting all your effort on Ruolin.
Ruolin didn't fall short either and took on your talent.
In a few days, Ruolin will be back from America.
I believe she can replace Rourou
and be filial to you.
Tianhao, I know you are just looking out for me,
but you could never understand how I feel.
Rourou and Ruolin are the same age,
but I wouldn't be able to recognize her even if she were standing right in front of me.
For a mother,
it is a great pain and torment.
Wang Xuan.
Hi, Wang Xuan. I am your fan.
A lover who is full of happiness
Tears allow my heart to be more complete
Having you by my side forever
I bet I sang pretty well.
Let's take a look.
I already sang my heart out, why didn't I get a single flower?
I guess... I need to dress up a little.
This should work.
That was so tiring.
Who knew being a dynamic female singer would be so much work.
There are responses so soon!
Savior for breast.
No matter how big or small it is. Indent or sticking or not even.
If you don't have it, we will give it to you.
Little steam beans upgraded to peaches.
Wow! You have gone too far.
I have the capability, too.
I'm back.
Jiang Meiyan.
What are you doing?
Why are you dressing like that? You're also acting suspicious.
Nothing.
Your exams are coming up.
Study hard. If Mom sees you like this,
she will skin you.
Worry about your own pocket.
Don't you try to cheat when I do well in my exams.
It wouldn't be too late to wait until you actually do well in your exams to say this.
Alright.
Weifang wants me to give you this whiten facial mask cream.
He said if it does work, he will give you more.
This kind of cream needs to be used everyday - who knows how long it will take.
It'd be better to just get skin whitening injections..
You! Taking advantage of others all the time and daring to say something like that.
Who told Weifang to like me and court me?
Giving a few gifts isn't much, right?
Alright, alright. Let's stop talking about Weifang.
You must be tired from working the whole day. You should go back and sleep.
- Hurry and go! - Why are you suddenly so nice?
I have exams tomorrow, so I need my energy. Go!
- Hurry and go. - You!
You only know how to blackmail your sis.
You really need to study hard.
I got it. You say the same thing so many times everyday.
From what I see, Weifang should court you instead.
You are more suitable to be the boss's wife at a Chinese medicine store than me.
From what I see, Weifang should court you instead.
You are more suitable to be the boss's wife at a Chinese medicine store than me.
I am suitable for him?
What does it matter if he doesn't like me?
Never mind.
Anyways, I still have Wang Xuan's autograph.
Little child,
did you cry today?
Did all your friends already go,
leaving you with a loneliness that can't be taken away?
Little child...
Let the past be the past.
Luckily, the previous MV hits have been practically zero.
This way, I can create a new account, and no one should be able to find out.
That's right! The horoscope predicted that my lucky color today is pink.
With sister's voice and my beautiful face,
when the talent scout sees it, they won't be able to turn their eyes away!
Now, it's time to put my lip-syncing to test.
Little child,
did you cry today?
Did all your friends already go,
leaving you with a loneliness that can't be taken away?
- Meili! - Jiang Meili.
Have you gone crazy? You scared me.
What are you doing?
What?
Your bag? Didn't you get it dirty?
It took me the whole night to scrub it off.
There was lipstick on it.
I saw Mom scrubbing it last night. She was working really hard to scrub it off,
and she even used a lot of soap.
Meili, speak clearly!
- This kid! - Wang Xuan!
The autograph was washed off, and there was traffic on the way.
- She's here. - Jiang Meili, just try to be even more unlucky.
Here.
What are you guys doing? Why are you looking at me like that?
So... do you guys want to bet again?
Of course. Why not?
We have to bet.
Okay. What are we betting on?
Let's bet you will be very unlucky today.
That's right. Bet you'll get very unlucky.
Let's go!
Meili! Meili, come over here.
What's wrong?
Cheng Yi is going to cancel their contract with us.
Cheng Yi is going to cancel their contract with us? Why?
Manager wants to ask you what is going on.
He was so angry and said that he was going to deduct a half month's pay.
Half a month?
Meili, what exactly happened? Were you late?
Of course not. I delivered it right on time.
Then what happened?
This won't do. I have to go and figure it out.
Meili! Meili!
Director.
- Fire? - No.
The company is closing down?
How is that even possible?
Then what exactly happened that made you forget to knock on the door before entering?
I discovered a beautiful voice. Listen, Director.
Last night, I found this by accident on a website.
At that moment, I felt like my whole body had been electrified,
and the hairs on my skin stood up.
I can only say that this voice makes people anticipate more.
Sit tight, Director.
- Sorry, sorry! - Song Yuqiang, my hairs did stand up.
Sorry! Sorry! The next one is the one.
It had better be good.
If my hairs do stand up, you don't need to work for me any longer.
No, no. You definitely won't.
Little child,
did you cry today?
Pretty good, right?
Did all your friends already go,
leaving you with a loneliness that can't be taken away?
It will be ready right away!
What kind of stupid website?
What's up, Tony?
Sure! I will be there immediately.
Song Yiqiang. I'm going to drop by the Emperor International Kindergarten.
If you don't find that voice,
you can open the window and directly jump off from here.
Director Guan. You are heading out?
Hello, Director Guan.
Shasha.
Meili. I don't want to say this to you,
but you were only making a delivery.
Why did you have to criticize someone else's work?
See what happened now.
You have offended someone high up in our company.
Director Li has personally instructed
to exchange your service with another company's.
How can I be blamed for this?
It was your Emperor Guan whole told me to speak.
I saw him looking just like Santa Claus,
so kind and cordial.
Who knew he had dug a hole for me to jump into?
What should I do now, Shasha?
The company said they are deducting my pay. I can only rely on you now.
Shasha!
You are my life teacher. You are my iron rod.
Please tell me what to do!
Okay, okay! Stop touching me. So itchy.
Then.. if you save me,
I will send your dog to have a bath for free.
3 times.
Let the mischief-maker undo the mischief.
Now, within the entire company,
the only person who can save you is Emperor Guan.
Guan Yi is only called the skilled Emperor Guan
because any songs or albums that are referred by him
become very popular and sell very well.
That's why our company's senior management
regards him as a God and worships him.
It's only short of using incense sticks to pray to him.
If the God passes down the decree,
would the commoners dare to disobey?
You are right.
Where is his office? I'm going to find him.
It's no use. He just went out.
Then it's no use.
How could I let you be like that?
Let me tell you. There is someone in our company
who knows his schedule like the back of his hand.
Who?
I'm really sorry. The meeting is cancelled.
You should know too that once our Director encounters matters regarding the dolls,
he loses sanity.
What else can I do?
Do you want to go personally to the Emperor International Kindergarten to find him?
Emperor International Kindergarten?
Why did you just arrive?
Quick, come with me.
Tony said that you have the doll I want.
I really don't have time to talk to you about this now.
Come with me.
Tony, this brat, is too much.
He agreed to perform with me in Snow White and the Poisoned Apple,
but he stood me up. Go and change your clothes now.
The children are waiting.
Don't even dream about this.
Are you going to disappoint the children?
They have been looking forward to this for a long time.
Fine, if you won't change into the costume, I won't sell the doll to you.
You!
Also, Guan Yi is famous for being ruthless.
If you meet him, don't ever pull his clothes and cry miserably.
He doesn't take any hardships.
You must find a way to create an opportunity.
Opportunity?
I will pay you triple the price. Sell the doll to me.
I will triple the price. Change into the costume.
Forget it if you don't want to sell it. I will find someone else.
Go then. There are only three of this in the world.
Even if you have the money, you won't be able to buy it.
It's okay.
If he doesn't want to, I will.
It doesn't matter who as long as someone does it, right?
Fat Princess, you must keep your word.
After I change into the costume and go onstage with you, you should sell the doll to him.
I can even give it to him for free.
Quick, I will wait outside for you.
Okay.
Why did you help me?
Because I have a favor to ask of you.
Let me through. Excuse me.
Hello, children!
I'm Snow White.
Let's invite the Giant Apple next.
Hi!
Hello, children. I'm the poisoned apple.
Don't think that I'm only red and fragrant.
If you eat me, you will die a terrible death.
Stop running, don't run.
The Giant Apple fell down. I'm going to eat it now!
Don't!
I'm so happy. I can eat the apple.
I'm going to eat the apple!
You've worked hard, Giant Apple.
Don't mention it.
Let me speak first.
I won't do things like setting fires or killing people.
What do you mean?
You embarrassed yourself so that I could help you,
so I believe it's not an easy task.
To others, it may not be easy,
but to Director Guan, it's a good thing.
Do you still remember me?
Have we met before?
Yesterday.
At your company's office.
You are the new assistant?
I was there yesterday to do a courier delivery.
You found someone to play a song and let me guess it.
I'm that courier delivery girl.
You looked different yesterday,
but it can't be helped. The way you are, no one can remember you that easily.
Director Guan, I did you a big favor yesterday
but I ran into bad luck.
Your company is going to terminate its contract with us.
What do you mean by that?
You are the cause of it.
Furthermore, look at me. I'm being sincere in finding you.
Just be benevolent and help me out a little.
I can't help you.
Why?
Because I'm a music producer.
To interfere with matters like which courier firm to use is below my status.
But...
By saying this, aren't you a bit...
That's unfair! If you hadn't dug the pit that I jumped in -
Wrong!
This is the risk you should take responsibility for.
You wanted to earn the $1,000 (154 USD), I gave it to you.
When problems happened later, you looked for me to redress it. There are no good things like this on earth.
But...
Greed is a sin. Think of your own solution.
- You can't leave! - What are you doing?
What are you trying to do?
I'm going to cut you!
Stop running. Stop running!
Don't!
I'm begging you. Please.
This half month's salary is very important to me.
How about I return the $1,000 to you and you talk to your company?
Let go.
Please.
I'm telling you to let go!
No! If you don't agree, I won't let go.
You can't leave!
Be careful.
You can't leave.
Be careful.
You can't leave!
It's broken.
What should we do? It's completely broken into pieces.
I know! I have eyes! I can see!
This doll is so easily broken, so it must be a replica.
It's not!
This item is already out of production.
There are not that many left in the world. It's a rare treasure!
Because of an uncivilized person like you, it broke in front of me!
Because of people like you, humans will become extinct, and the earth will be destroyed!
Is it that serious?
You're even going to blame me for destroying the earth?
Okay, fine. I know that I was wrong.
- I will apologize to you, okay? - No need!
No need to apologize to me,
because I will never forgive you.
How could there be a man so unreasonable and difficult to get along with?
I should have sent him to Mars!
This makes me so mad!
Your buddy is home.
Welcome back.
Don't worry. I will definitely have you repaired.
Fly, fly!
I'm going to protect the Earth and protect Mommy!
Mommy, you should lie down and rest a bit.
I'll call Dad.
Dad is busy. Mommy's okay.
Baby, I'm sorry.
I promised to take you to the amusement park, but now I've disappointed you.
That's okay, when you get better, you can take me there.
How is it? Do you have any news?
I've been to Sun Jinsheng's old home in Sichuan.
All his neighbors said that he hasn't been back in over 20 years.
I even called some of his relatives,
but they've all lost contact with him.
Ms. Wang, from my years of experience in this business,
in such a situation, it's possible that he's no longer alive.
As long as there's still a thread of hope, I won't give up.
I heard from others that you're very good.
You've reunited many families who'd been separated for years.
No matter the cost, I'm willing to pay.
Please, you must help me find this person.
- Hello, Dad? - Are you on the way back?
Come home for lunch.
You can go ahead and eat. I have plans for this afternoon.
I already ate a bit on the plane, so I'm not hungry.
What's more important than coming home to see your parents?
You've already been away for a year. You don't want to come home to see us?
Dad, even if we were to have lunch together,
I'm afraid that you'll be asked back to the office after just a few words.
That would be so disappointing.
Why don't the three of us have dinner together, without anyone to disrupt us.
I really miss Mom's food and her soup.
I've thought of it for an entire year.
Okay then, I'll have your mom prepare dinner. Let's eat dinner together.
- Don't come back too late. - Okay.
Let's go to the dance studio.
Then I'll ask for your help.
Don't worry, I'll keep searching.
Okay, thank you.
Is there any news of Sun Jinsheng?
It's okay.
I've said it before, I'll support you no matter what you do.
By the way, Ruolin just got off the plane,
but she won't be back until dinnertime.
She asked for your soup over the phone.
- Really? - Yes.
Okay, then I'll...
We don't have enough ham and pickled bamboo shoots at home. I'll go out first and buy some.
I'll also buy some crab.
You and Ruolin both love it.
- Okay. - Wait for me.
It's still early, not even 11 o'clock yet.
The Demon King won't be in yet.
♫ If it's love, don't put on an act ♫
♫ See through the feeling in your eyes ♫
♫ Do you feel it? ♫
♫ Do you feel it? ♫ ♫ If it's love, don't put on an act ♫
♫ Leave your cowardice outside the door ♫
♫ What are you looking at? ♫
♫ Quench the thirst ♫
♫ Melt away the awkwardness ♫
You just got off the plane, and you practiced for two hours.
How will your body handle it if you continue like this?
Do you want to rest a bit?
Only an unpopular artist will keep asking to rest.
Your opponent won't wait for you.
And neither will your fans.
How was my dance? Did I get all the steps right?
I think there were two parts that were different from the teacher's.
Bring the teacher's video over so I can take another look.
Okay.
Ms. Ruolin, you must be tired from practice.
Have some water.
I just finished dancing, so my body is warm.
If I drink cold water right away, my whole body will ache.
As expected of the Empress.
Professional.
Who are you?
I forgot to introduce myself.
I'm Cheng Yi's new director,
Zhang Quan.
Ruolin.
Excuse me, I still have things to do.
I hope that we'll be able to work together in the future.
Sorry, Director Zhang.
♫ The old, yellowing film ♫
♫ Has a beautiful nostalgia ♫
♫ Our whispers were inseparable ♫
♫ I don't remember who decided to let go first back then ♫
♫ All I remember were eyes full of tears ♫
♫ Just like shooting stars ♫
Director, the actresses are here.
Take your pick.
Where did you find them?
They're all recommended by Director Li.
The first is his daughter.
The second is his aunt's daughter.
The third is his driver's daughter.
And the fourth one...
Director Li said for you to pick one of them.
Ji Qing!
Ruolin! When did you get back?
I just got off the plane, and I came to see you and the director right away.
Aren't you touched?
You just keep getting prettier.
That's right!
Director, you still haven't chosen anyone.
Look, would Guan Yi accept any female leads that looked like that?
We're not filming!
We can't, Director! The company is pressing us!
So what?
If Guan Yi doesn't approve, there's no use.
Get over here.
Let me tell you, find someone who is more convincing.
Someone who is qualified to match up with our nation's idol, Ji Qing.
This...
If you don't mind, do you think I would be okay?
- Of course that's okay! - That's good.
If a Hollywood star isn't good enough, who is?
That's right!
Everyone, we're saved!
We're saved!
Let's welcome Ruolin!
♫ Loving yourself is like believing that the skies will clear after the storm ♫
♫ In the midst of the darkness, confident that you'll see your dreams tomorrow ♫
♫ Setbacks make you beautiful, the future you will be amazing ♫
♫ You have to work hard to love yourself, in order to get closer to happiness ♫
