[Beautiful Secret]
[Episode 5]
Yi Qiang. It's me. Go tell -
- Tell who? - Shasha jie!
Go tell Shasha, just say I said it.
Change the delivery company we have now back to the one we had before.
Why does it concern me if President Li is mad?
Just say -
Just say I don't like the new company's logo, okay?
Is that good enough?
Director Guan is such a fast-acting person, so I won't waste any more time.
My bike broke down.
So?
I was going to continue delivering things after I sold the figurine to you,
but you just wasted all my time.
So you'll have to wait.
What exactly do you want?
Well, you know my bike broke down...
Don't even think about it.
Then you can only wait for me.
Get on the car.
Wait.
What now? Didn't I already agree to your request?
Then what about my Little Red?
I can't leave it alone on the side of the road.
Your crappy bike.
Even if you left the key in and put it on the side of the road, no one would want it.
How can you say that?
Let me tell you, my Little Red has self-esteem too.
Forget it, forget it, forget it. I'll just walk it around while making deliveries.
I'm not selling the figurine to you!
You win. Get on the car.
Yi Qiang. It's me. Come to my location.
There's a crappy red bike on the side of the road.
Get it fixed for me.
This car is so pretty.
Let me take a selfie.
This is my first time riding such a nice car while making deliveries.
- Oh! Make a left turn in front. - I know. I have a GPS.
GPS?
Can you listen to music in here?
No. Don't touch it.
Do you usually drive alone? Doesn't it get stuffy?
There's no one talking, and you don't listen to music.
The speed limit is 40.
I know. I have ears.
Aren't you a music producer? Why don't you listen to music?
I don't need noise in my car. Shhhh.
Isn't it really boring then?
What are your hobbies and interests then? It's hard to imagine
a music producer that doesn't listen to music.
I can't imagine that a woman with a long tongue (talkative) is sitting next to me in the car.
It's not very long.
Careful, careful, careful. Go right a little, go right a little, go right a little.
A little, a little, a little.
It's alright, it's alright. It's straight.
You're good at driving!
Uncle, can you let us pass first? We are doing an urgent delivery.
You're using a nice car like this to make a delivery?
Sorry, can you let us pass first?
Thank you, thank you!
What the heck are they doing
doing a delivery with a car like this...
Don't be in a hurry.
What are you doing?
Yes, your GPS is nice and new,
but I pass by this road everyday.
When we have to avoid cars, when there aren't lot of people... I know it all!
You just have to follow what I say, okay? Listen to me!
Turn right up there.
Your tires are worn out. Your brakes are worn out too.
There's also a problem with the hub.
Change everything you have to change, and also make the appearance nicer.
You don't have to make it cheap, okay?
Hello? Ms. Wang, it's me.
I found some clues.
Really?
Someone from Sun Jinsheng's town saw him in Hong Kong.
He was selling toys.
Sun ge is in Hong Kong?
Is the information reliable?
It was few years ago,
but I will use this clue to continue my research.
If I have any new information, I'll inform you immediately.
Okay. Thank you! I'll wait for your good news
Sun ge... Where are you?
Hello, it's for a delivery. Here is your package.
Please sign here.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thanks.
This person... Have I met him before?
You're really ignoring me?
You don't even want to say a single word?
Hurry up!
I get it! Why are you pushing me? What a bad temper!
Let's go.
- Please sign here. - Okay.
There isn't ink.
Oh, sorry, I'll give you another one.
I remember I should still have a lot in there...
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Give me a moment to find another one.
- What are you doing? - Sign.
Next time, don't use this type of pen that's hard to use.
Yes, I got it. I'm really sorry. Thank you.
The pen I used to sign thousands contracts
is used to sign for a delivery and even disliked?
Here, don't be mad, okay?
Let's get in the car. Be good.
I'll get in the car first.
Yes? I'm already here!
Sorry, sorry, I am going to deliver it immediately!
The client is pushing us. How about you deliver it with me?
Don't abuse me! It's already enough for me to take you here and there,
and now you're asking me to help you deliver?
You can think of it this way: you're not helping me,
but you're helping yourself!
Here, there are three clients asking for a delivery.
Running by myself, how long would it take?
And don't forget we have another delivery to do.
Of course, if you like waiting and are willing to wait,
and won't complain that being with me is very hard,
- I have nothing to say. - That's enough.
Your last sentence persuaded me
that it's true, it really is hard to be with you
I'll deliver!
Here!
We can't take the elevator!
Why can't we take the elevator?
Don't you ignore the fact that we are going to the 8th floor.
Anyway, we can't!
Are you sick? Why don't you let me take the elevator?
I see that you have a good body! You often work out, right?
So what?
Mister Guan, you usually drive a nice car using the A/C,
and you even have a private gym to work out in.
However, poor people like us don't have the money,
so we can only walk and use the stairs.
You won't take away our chance to exercise, right?
Moreover, if we think about it,
using the stairs isn't that different from going to the gym.
Why don't you try it with me?
Economic, substantial, and ecological. What do you think?
What are you doing?
I can't take the elevator! I can't take the elevator!
Let me out! Let me out!
You can't go out anymore. I really don't understand what you're thinking about.
You'd rather waste your time using stairs. Time is money.
"Time is money!"
Let me out!
Let me out! Please, I beg you, let me out!
Very good acting,
without any flaw. You're really made to act.
I want to get out!
You can stop acting now. I won't fall into your trap.
What's wrong?
The doctor said I am claustrophobic.
I really can't ride elevators. I'm not lying.
I'm sorry. I didn't know you had this special condition.
It's okay.
It's nothing. Don't worry.
You should go down first. I can deliver them myself.
Give them to me.
I'm not helping you.
I only want to get my figurine quickly.
Thank you.
Do I have a name? My name is Jiang Meili.
Meili? How could there be such a vulgar name?
My mom named me. I think it's really good.
Why are you claustrophobic?
Forget it if you don't want to tell me.
It's not that I don't want to say it, but I just don't know how to explain it.
For as long as I can remember, I have always been afraid of riding elevators.
As soon as I saw light from the elevator,
I would just tremble all over and feel dizzy
as if I was going to die.
My parents have taken me to the doctor,
but the doctor couldn't figure anything out.
He just said it probably had to do with some experience I had when I was younger.
I don't remember anything from when I was younger.
My parents said there wasn't much that happened either.
Weird.
Why am I afraid of riding elevators?
I'm done talking. Your turn.
I don't have a sickness.
You have a sickness, and it's not a small one.
Your sickness is that as soon as you see a figurine,
your eyes light up and you lose all reasoning capabilities.
Why do you like figurines so much?
Say it. Come on, say it.
Let's race. If you win,
I will pay you double for your figurine.
Really?
You have to keep your word. You can't take it back.
But if you lose, you have to give me the figurine for free.
Deal.
We haven't started yet. You're cheating.
If you agree to bet, you must agree to accept a loss.
You thought I would lose, huh?
Stop right there.
Why did you suddenly stop?
It's locked.
Geez.
What's wrong with you again?
I sprained my ankle.
You wait here. Don't move.
The rest of the deliveries in the car were made by the Demon King himself.
He even went to the supermarket to buy me ice for my foot.
He isn't as cold as he looks on the outside.
Hey! Don't forget to get the signature!
There's one more!
Hey! Have a better attitude!
Hey! Hurry up! There's no more time!
Do you still want your figurine?
Want the figurine?
Here. Your figurine.
No need. We made a bet.
You won. You can have it.
It's my fault you got hurt. We're even. Take it.
Thank you.
Your foot - do you want me to take you to the doctor?
It's fine. If I had to see a doctor for this little thing,
then all of the deliveries I made would be for nothing.
Look. It's fine.
I know a clinic nearby. I'll take you there.
I really don't need to.
I don't want to wait until after you become limp
to pay for the medical bill.
- This person talks - - Get on the car.
I was just starting to have a good impression of you.
Okay. I'll go.
But let me tell you first, going to a clinic costs too much money.
Just go to the Chinese medicine shop I know.
The Chinese medicine shop is right there.
Don't worry. As long as you take your medication on time, it will heal quickly.
Bye.
Oh? So that's why.
You like him?
What's it to you?
Wait. If you see this Chinese medicine doctor and have problems, call me.
I can introduce you to a Western doctor.
No need. I like traditional Chinese doctors.
You admitted you like traditional Chinese doctors.
You -
Hey! Chinese medicine doctor. Come out for a second.
Come on. Come. Your friend's foot is hurt.
She needs you.
Look at it for her.
- Weifang. - Meili?
She can't walk. You'll have to support her.
Of course, to her,
bridal carry would be even better.
No need, no need. I can walk.
Guan Yi, you'd better remember this.
Don't worry. I will remember for sure.
This is the first time a Demon King is pretending to be an angel.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
Are you okay?
- Does it hurt here? - A little.
What about here?
Here?
Don't worry. There's nothing wrong.
It's a good thing you iced it. You didn't hurt the bone.
The swelling just needs to go down.
That's good.
If I needed to take off work just because of this little thing, I would be distressed.
Oh yeah. That person a while ago - are you very familiar with him?
I don't know him too well.
He's just one of the delivery clients. I've met him a couple times.
He's famous, but very weird.
What he said just now, don't take it to heart.
Why would I take it to heart?
Oh, right, I will take you home in a bit.
Sorry for the trouble.
Why are you being so polite? You're Meiyan's sister.
Hold on tight. Don't fall.
Wait a little while longer. We're almost home.
You can go slower. I don't care how slow you go.
Doctor, hurry and save my mother.
Mommy, don't go. Mommy.
Mommy!
Mom can't stay with you anymore.
Don't blame dad.
You have to listen to your aunt.
Mom...
Mommy, wake up. Mommy, wake up!
- Take the child outside. - Mommy, wake up.
Let go of me, let go of me! I want my mom. Mommy!
Let go of me. Mommy!
Let go...
Let go, I need to throw it away.
This is Mommy's present.
- That's enough, enough, enough!. - I need to throw it away.
Let him take it.
Son, your mom isn't here anymore.
In the future, you will live with me and Auntie.
Do you hear me?
Go bring the car over here.
Don't be angry.
In a minute, grab it quickly and take care of it.
I'll lay it out for you clearly today.
I have already reached my limit by letting you live in our house.
You'd better be well-behaved.
I am talking to you! Do you understand me?
You'd better be well-behaved!
You're all finally reunited.
Little Red!
You've become so beautiful! Did you have some surgery done?
[I hope we won't get involved again]
Who'd want to keep getting involved with the Demon King?
Isn't that right, Little Red?
Okay! Let's continue with our deliveries and make some money!
Little Red, go!
This microphone seems pretty good.
Miss, I'd like this one. Please wrap it up.
Please wait a moment.
With my strength and the power of the microphone,
I think my road to becoming a superstar is being built little by little.
Afterwards, I just have to let the magic occur.
Hello?
Hello, is this Jiang Meiyan?
Yes, that's me.
This is Cheng Yi Records.
I'd like to ask
if you're interested in signing a contract with us.
Contract? Me?
Miss, I've wrapped up your microphone for you.
Sorry, I don't want this microphone anymore.
That's alright.
Sorry. I'll be there right away!
Okay, bye bye!
What's wrong with me?
Why would I bet with a lunatic?
- Song Yiqiang. - Director.
What are you doing?
I'm looking to see if the sticky note is in the drawer.
That's strange.
I definitely left the note on your computer yesterday.
What was written on the note?
Top secret.
Song Yiqiang, has someone squished your brain?
Haven't you ever heard the story about "there aren't silver taels hidden here"? (Revealing the very thing you were trying to hide.)
Director, look. I clearly left the note...
Even deliverymen know that they have to hand the goods directly to the receiver.
Don't you know?
Sir, where's the next frame?
That's when it happened.
The recording from 11 to 3 is messed up.
It was damaged.
Damaged? That's such a coincidence!
How unlikely is that?
Who else has been here to see the recordings in the past two days?
That's right. Yesterday afternoon, Zhang Quan's assistant came by.
Producer, hello.
You must know about our company.
Yes, of course.
Cheng Yi, one of the best music production companies in China.
In the beginning, there was Wang Xuan. Now, there's Ji Qing, Fang Kai,
and Xu Ruolin.
And there's also the famous producer, Guan Yi.
That's enough!
You just have to know that our company isn't one of those
shabby companies that don't have credible reputations.
The rest isn't important.
Okay.
I've heard the recordings you've posted online.
I believe you have the potential.
As long as you are willing to sign with our company and let me represent you,
I believe you will definitely become like those people you mentioned.
You'll become the musical star of tomorrow.
Really? Do you really think I can?
You need to believe in yourself. I think that your voice
is very unique and draws in people.
It's a diamond in the rough.
Oh yes, have you reached 20 years of age yet?
Yes, yes.
Do your family not support you following this path?
They won't. They would probably agree.
Since your family supports you to be in this line, this is good.
Prepare yourself and come with me to the recording studio to test out your singing.
Then, we can discuss the contract.
Right now?
Don't stress. Just perform it like you usually do.
But, but I'm not prepared. Telling me to sing right now is a bit sudden,
not to mention I... I also have a bit of a cold.
Then fine, when your cold has been cured, come find me.
I'm sorry, I will contact you again.
Thank you, I'll leave now.
Although I didn't get to hear her voice,
her appearance is not bad.
If we give her a makeover, she will definitely be popular.
Then, I won't have to receive the brunt of Emperor Guan's anger anymore.
What a surprise, Director Guan.
I don't want to waste any time. Did you take Song Yiqiang's post-it note?
What post-it note? Do you have proof?
Interesting. You usually hate to plagiarize,
but you really do like to accuse others.
If I had the proof,
you'd already be at the police station by now.
Guan Yi.
Even though this is highly classified information,
I can't stop myself from sharing this with you.
I recently took notice of a really talented young girl.
I plan to tout her.
You plan to tout her as a plagiarizing sweetheart?
Guan Yi. I respect you as my senior. That's why I'm letting it go,
but don't take too much advantage of it.
Once I sign the contract with her, let's see how long you can last.
So you haven't signed her yet?
Immediately contact Jiang Meiyan. Once we meet her, get her to sign straightaway.
If I were to sing, I will be exposed once I open my mouth.
Seems like I can't get signed on.
Hello?
Where are you right now?
I'm still on the ground level of your building.
I've already prepared the contract. Can you come up and sign it?
There are two copies of the contract here.
If there's nothing wrong with the contents,
then please sign here.
But don't we need to test my singing?
No need.
Because I've already heard the song you uploaded online many times,
I have confidence.
Because your voice has stuck deeply into my mind.
You can sign.
But my parents are quite strict.
I think I'll have to take the contract home and discuss it with them.
Isn't your family very supportive of you following this path?
They are. But I...
Then you actually don't want to become a superstar?
You don't want to get the attention of all of the people?
Sign it!
Sign.
Whoever signs first, wins. With this contract,
even if it's Emperor Guan, he can't steal my people.
To tell you the truth,
you are our company's new discovery.
We plan to make you Xu Ruolin's successor.
Thus, we are going to arrange a lot of training sessions for you,
but regarding your school lessons...
It's not a problem! If I'm not able to attend,
I will drop out of school first.
Excuse me.
Hello?
Yes. I am.
Cheng Yi?
I'm here. Excuse me, who are you?
Song Yiqiang.
Go tell your director that Jiang Meiyan has already signed on with me.
Tell him he doesn't have to call again.
Director, Zhang Quan has beaten us to it.
Let's go.
To negotiate, right?
Director, don't worry! I will be merciless!
We're going to the recording studio.
Don't tell me that just because we have been robbed, we don't need to work on other matters.
Yes.
Cheng Yi Productions.
- I'm sorry. - Don't worry about it.
Oh my! Are you Xu Ruolin?
I really like you. I have every one of your albums!
Oh right, I just signed on. From now on, I'll be your junior!
Senior, please take care of me!
That's great.
Those rookies that the company has signed, what's wrong with their standards?
Where's Director Guan?
The director's gone to the recording studio.
Tell him that I'm waiting for him in his office.
This rookie is not bad.
She have a good appearance and her sense of coordination is also good.
What's more important is that her voice
has been personally acknowledged by Guan Yi.
President Li, don't worry. With this King's card,
I can guarantee that she can take over Xu Ruolin.
Take over Xu Ruolin? It won't be that easy, right?
Yes, Xu Ruolin was the queen in the past,
but this was two years ago.
I heard from her agency that many of her spokeswoman's contracts are expiring soon
but not many are renewing theirs.
Many of them are just observing first.
When she went to shoot a movie in the States, it was considered a great joke.
It took her a year just to shoot a two-second appearance.
If you accidentally blinked your eyes,
you might have even missed her lively performance.
With such an idol singer,
in the market, she is just a substitute product.
Waves push away waves;
fans will forget her little by little.
How should we say it?
This album has the possibility to make her a star again.
But if the response is mediocre,
she can't help but become a withered flower (a thing of the past).
I understand, Shasha jie.
Okay, thank you.
Take a break.
Director. I have two very important and conflicting matters
which require your knowledge and wisdom for analysis.
Which would you like to listen to first?
Song Yiqiang.
Your work is unreliable and your music is not accomplished enough,
but you sure are improving on making people impatient
Do you want to change your job? Go work at Arts Circle.
Director, don't hurt me.
I'm also trying to compensate for my mistakes.
It's called Dreamcoat.
You even brought up Dreamcoat... That's enough.
Speak. What is it?
Shasha jie just called.
She said that Xu Ruolin is currently waiting for you at your office.
I know you don't want to see her,
but now there is an important document concerning your lifetime career.
It's waiting for you to sign it.
Tell me what we should do now. Should we go back to the office?
If I have known it was from that Demon King, I would have asked someone else to deliver it.
It's even a two-way courier.
I must wait for him to sign this before I can leave.
It's you?
Here's your courier package.
Your leg is already fine? Seems like the prescription was effective.
It has healed very quickly.
If you're done joking around, please look at this document,
because Shasha jie has instructed that
once you have signed it, it must be delivered back immediately to the company.
Close the door.
Your garden is so big! It's even bigger than our local area!
You live here alone? Your family is not living with you?
That's because I like it peaceful and quiet.
But it's boring being alone. It's more fun when there are lots of people.
I know. Your family probably can't stand you because of your bad personality.
There are so many Gundam dolls!
Hi! Long time no see. Can you still recognize me?
You must be very happy to live in such a beautiful house now.
Hi! How are you?
Go back to what you were doing. I will answer the door for you.
Coming.
May I ask, you are...
Seems like he's willing to spend to hire a maid.
- I... - Move aside. We are here to see Guan Yi.
Guan Yi!
Guan Yi! Are you deaf?
Guan Yi!
What are you doing here?
What kind of attitude is that?
Forget it if you don't want to visit us.
Your parents came from such a long distance to visit you, yet you are still so cold.
Don't you know that it's a crime to be unfilial now?
Why are you still standing here? Get us some water.
The owner is so rude.
As the housekeeper, are you copying him too?
I already signed the document. Go in and collect it.
Is the money not enough?
Isn't that so?
What is the cost of commodity now? How could RMB$3,000 ($455 USD) per month be enough?
The rent for the house is already over RMB$1,000 ($152 USD).
Furthermore, the medicines for you father is getting more expensive.
Is the balance of the money enough for our food and drinks?
Fine, I will give you another RMB$30,000 ($4,554 USD).
Dear, did you hear that?
How could you bear to let this old man come here to seek money from his son?
Yet he only gave just a bit more.
Does he think we are beggars?
I told you in the first place that it would be better to raise a dog than him, but you didn't want to listen.
Can you see it now?
What exactly do you want?
RMM$300,000 ($45,537 USD). Give to me, and I will leave immediately.
If you don't hand it over,
we will sit here today.
In any case, this house is so big. There is no difference if we are here.
Not to mention, it's great for us as a family to live together.
We can even save on our house rental.
You also don't have to worry about those entertainment channels,
seeing a music and choreography maker like you
abandoning his parents and publishing this type of news, right?
RMB$20,000 ($3,036 USD). Take it or leave it.
You just said RMB$30,000.
Aunt, come here and mediate.
Look. Do you know how much he spent on those toys?
Yet, he is only giving us that small sum of money.
Does he still have us in his heart?
RMB$10,000 ($1,518 USD). If you talk again, you won't get a single cent.
Let me tell you.
When your biological mother passed away, i didn't want to raise you.
It was your father who insisted that we take you back, and I agreed.
If not, you would have grown up in an orphanage.
Now that you are successful,
you are only giving us this sum of money? Have you forgotten to repay our kindness?
I'm talking to you. Did you hear me?
Mrs. Guan, your memory is bad. Let me remind you.
When I was fifteen years old, you kicked me out of the house.
Moreover, this person whom I call father
simply stood on the side
and didn't say a single word.
So what? At least, I still raised you for seven years.
Yes. And thanks to those seven years,
was I able to understand what is called being independent,
what is called a warm human.
Do you know that
no matter what people from the outside do,
it can't hurt as much as
if it's coming from a person of your own family.
Who is your family?
Don't tell others how good and successful you are.
You are just a child by a divorced woman.
Are you so anxious for my love and care?
Shut up!
Guan Yi is my son.
You are not allowed to say that about him in the future.
Did you hear me?
You were already divorced. How do you even know if he's your son?
Good for you, Guan Yong. You are still protecting his mother now?
You can leave now that you have gotten the money. If you want to fight, go back and fight.
Mrs. Guan. You should remember this.
You can't use him to threaten me all the time.
If one day, I decide to be cruel, I will send him to the nursing home.
You can survive on your own then.
