[Beautiful Secret]
[Episode 12]
Wang Xuan, today I brought your daughter here to see you.
Rourou.
Rourou, I'm sorry.
Mom was wrong. I'm sorry.
Do you know how long I have been searching for you?
I finally found you.
I longed for you day and night.
I even dreamed of this moment.
Mom made a wish to God, if I can see you once more,
I am willing to lose ten years of my life.
Today, He finally granted my wish.
Wang Xuan, mother-daughter reunion should be warm and touching.
Don't say these depressing words.
You are frightening her.
Miss.
Please don't feel awkward after this.
This is Mr. Xu.
Hello.
Hi.
Let's not stand here.
Come in.
Your tea.
Wang Xuan, did you notice that this child,
has some traits like you?
Child, is your name still Rourou?
My name is Jiang Meili.
Jiang Meili?
Have we met before?
You look familiar.
What a coincidence. You guys know each other?
I have met her twice before.
This must be fate.
Otherwise, God wouldn't have arranged Meili to appear in front of her again and again.
True.
But I didn't recognize her,
and had to go through such a wild goose chase.
See if you still have anything you want to say.
Seems like this mother-daughter reunion is destined.
Child, are you living well?
What about your adoptive parents? Are they good to you?
We are living happily. They treat me well.
Good.
That's great.
I heard from Uncle Sun that you don't remember anything from childhood.
Yes, I don't remember at all.
Then when did you find out that you are adopted?
They never told you?
Was it because of us that they finally told you?
Wang Xuan, this means that they really treated Rourou as their own child.
You should be grateful.
Yes,
Tianhao is right.
At least you were loved.
This way I feel better.
Every time I think about this,
I feel really bad.
Rourou, I really regret what I did.
I shouldn't have left your that day no matter what.
I swear that if you can come back to me,
I will tell the whole world that I have a daughter like you.
I won't let you down again.
We'll never be separated.
I understand how you feel,
but I love my family and I like my current life.
I only wanted to see you and to let you know that my life is good.
You don't need to worry about me anymore.
I don't want anything to change.
Rourou,
do you know
how hard it was for me to find you?
I really want you to come back to me.
Wang Xuan, don't be anxious.
I know you've been wanting this for 20 years,
but it's too much for Rourou to take in.
You should think in Rourou's shoes.
Give her more time to get used to this.
Nevertheless, right now you have to respect her decision.
Yes.
Rourou has her adoptive family.
No matter what, you can't be too selfish. You can't just take away someone's daughter whom they've raised for 20 years.
After all, they have helped Meili a lot.
If you can, I hope you won't let other people know that I'm your daughter.
I don't want anyone to know about this.
Rourou...
I'm sorry.
I just want to be Jiang Meili.
I don't want to hurt my adoptive parents. I don't want them to think that I want to abandon them.
You're right, I was too greedy.
Being able to find you was already a gift from God.
I shouldn't have asked too much.
I understand.
Sorry.
We Chat (Chinese Whatsapp)
What's the matter?
It's nothing.
Can you stay with me a little longer?
Why isn't she texting back?
Is it because what I wrote isn't polite enough?
What happened to Xu Ruolin yesterday is just like a pot of badly-cooked rice.
Both were accidents.
Don't care about it too much. Don't misunderstand.
I wasn't saying that you have poor qualifications.
That's right, it's all very clear.
What's the problem then?
The signal's bad.
I have it. I have it. Full bars, full bars.
Did you receive it?
Have you read it?
At least give me a smiley face!
Does Jiang Meili know her manners?
When you were little,
you always followed me everywhere.
and wouldn't let go of me.
You also loved it when I sang to you.
Especially that song, "My Dear Child".
You wouldn't go to bed before hearing it for a few times.
I'm sorry, I can't recall any of that.
It's fine.
As long as I remember.
It's all good.
For the last 20 years, there wasn't a day that I wasn't suffering from my guilt.
That's why, I decided to retire from the stage and never sing again.
It's a relief that you grew up well.
If anything happened to you,
I would blame myself for life.
Mr. Sun was right.
Good thing she didn't know that her daughter died at birth.
Rourou... Meili.
Do you hate me?
I don't.
But since we've met,
you still act like a stranger to me.
It's not like that.
I just don't know what to do.
Yes,
I was too impatient.
I have never been a responsible mother to you.
How could I expect you to accept me?
It's not like that!
It's just that this is so sudden.
Even though you were not by my side,
but your singing has always accompanied me.
You have brought me a lot of happy memories.
Many times when I felt sad, it was your song that comforted me.
You were always trying to find me,
but I during that time I didn't feel lonely.
I have a loving family so I'm really happy.
Wait a moment.
Sorry, I have to pick this up.
Hello?
Sis, where are you?
Mom's surgery is done.
How is she?
It was successful. Hurry up and come.
Alright.
I'm sorry but I have stayed too long. I should go.
Let me take you.
It's ok.
Rourou, I just want to be with you for a little longer.
I don't have any other motives.
Please don't say no.
Let's go.
Didn't Chairman Xu said end it when it is still good?
You let Wang Xuan take her home.
Aren't you afraid a new branch will grow out of a knot? (having complications)
It's because I'm afraid of complications that I let Wang Xuan take her home.
If you don't let her, would she ever give up?
If there are any more mistakes,
the costs would outweigh the benefits.
You go and tell that girl.
If Wang Xuan goes to see her again, she needs to give Wang Xuan a hard time,
and also let Wang Xuan know clearly that she doesn't want to see Wang Xuan any more.
After a few times,
with Wang Xuan's personality, she will just give up.
You must have a boyfriend?
I don't.
No one would like someone like me.
Says who?
Look at you with a beautiful face.
You look nice when you smile.
It is very attractive.
I believe people who appreciate will like you for sure.
Only you will say that.
I heard you are working at a delivery company.
Yes.
It must be tiring.
Should I help you find a new job?
No, it's ok.
I like this job. Plus, I'm used to it.
But Mom can't bear it.
I think it's not that bad.
I am using my own ability to make a living.
You are such a good person.
Looks like they've raised you into a good person.
But you shouldn't forget,
you also have me as your mom now.
You might not be used to it yet.
But if you need anything, make sure to let me know. Okay?
I understand. I will.
Rourou, what's wrong with you?
You're okay right?
I'm fine.
Xiao Li. Be careful when you drive.
We are here. Please stop over there.
Stop.
You live here?
Around here.
The road at my house is very narrow. This car won't be able to get by.
I can walk with you.
Absolutely not!
What I meant is,
you are public figure. It won't be good for you to show up at our place.
Besides, it is troublesome if others see you.
Rourou,
you haven't called me Mom yet.
Can you call me Mom?
I'm sorry, I really have to go.
Rourou.
My Rourou is already a grown up.
She is no longer that little girl who liked to stick to me
and called me Mom.
She should be really gone now.
I really want to tell her the truth.
But when I think of her daughter's early death.
I can only swallow what I want to say.
It is not anyone who can lie.
Especially this kind of big lie.
This is so painful.
Meiyan!
Sis!
How is it? Is Mom awake?
I don't know. She is still in the ICU.
Meili, where did you go?
Didn't you know your mom was having her surgery today?
I had something important to do.
What is more important than your mom's surgery?
Dad.
Doctor.
Doctor, we are Chen Jingshu's family. How is she doing?
She is very stable after the surgery.
She will be transferred to a regular ward soon.
If nothing goes wrong, she'll wake up soon.
Thank you. Thank you, Doctor.
Thank you! Thank you, God. Mom is ok.
Yes.
Since your mom was admitted to the hospital, our family hasn't had a peaceful day.
We are always worrying.
Finally, it is fine now. Let's hope all the unlucky events in the past
will end along with this cut (surgery).
How are we going to afford the medical and hospital bill?
Come in.
Director, Teacher Wang has asked someone to call earlier.
She wants me to tell you...
What?
She said the deadline has passed.
But the director hasn't let her hear
the new voice.
Does that mean...
Just say it in one sentence.
Teacher Wang said it means Xu Ruolin and her will be singing the song "Can't Bear to Part" for sure.
Slower!
Are you afraid that people won't know you have good lung capacity?
Things change easily.
Call Teacher Wang and tell her that I got her message.
Yes.
Wait. Did Jiang Meili come?
Director had an appointment with Jiang Meili?
Didn't I ask you to get the delivery to pick up stuff?
Right.
The delivery was here but it was not Jiang Meili.
Why? Why wasn't Jiang Meili here?
It is because the delivery company said Jiang Meili is on leave.
On leave...
Hello?
Meili, how are you?
I'm good.
I'm sorry but I am busy. I can't talk right now. Bye.
The past few days, Jiang Meili has reported to us
that Wang Xuan hasn't cut off her contact with her.
But she has done what we have asked her to,
and kept refusing Wang Xuan.
She said she could tell Wang Xuan sounded sad.
Also, she has asked
about the final installment we have promised her, and when it will be in her account.
As she needs it now.
Tell her.
When Wang Xuan totally gives up,
I will give it to her then.
Your 2 million dollars (USD 60,000)
is also the same (condition).
Thank you.
Xiao Li, wait in the car.
Rourou lives here?
But Brother Sun told me that the family he found was financially sound.
How come...
Sorry to bother you.
Is there a girl named Jiang Meili living here?
You are that singer,
Wang Xuan!
Why are you looking for her?
My friend asked me to see her.
May I ask what's your relationship with her?
I am her landlord.
So you knew her since she was little?
Yes, their family rented from me for over twenty years.
I watched Meili grow up.
Ever since she was little, Meili was always kind-hearted and obedient.
I remember that year when her mother got sick.
She was only five years old but went outside at midnight,
knocked on very single door to ask for help.
If it wasn't for Meili, Jingshu and the child in her tummy wouldn't have been here today.
That's why we all say that
Meili is the lucky star that God has given to the Jiang family.
Then Meili must also have siblings?
Yes, she has a younger sister named Meiyan.
She was born after Meili had came.
From what you are saying,
Meili isn't their biological child?
She was just being adopted by them right?
This...
Don't worry. I don't have any other intentions.
I really am just concerned.
If you asked me earlier, I wouldn't have admitted to you.
Because Meili's parents always warned me not to let Meili know about this.
But don't know why,
just a while ago, they told Meili themselves.
Her parents always treat her very well, especially her mom.
Even better than she treats her own daughter.
We all can witness that.
This child, Meili, knows she needs to make money to support her family.
She's responsible for half of the family expenses.
Her mom was severely sick and needed to have a surgery.
It is already a big expense for just the surgery itself.
At first, I wanted to talk to Meili about selling the house,
because my son also needed money as soon as possible.
A few days ago, a few realtors came over to look at the house.
But now, I am embarrassed to ask.
God, God, please watch over me and our family.
It has been a few days and she's still not awake.
Please watch over us.
Jingshu.
Dad, Mom's is getting older. Her recovery speed isn't what it used to be.
When she's done resting, I believe that she will wake up.
Jingshu, Jingshu. Please wake up. Wake up.
The doctor said that the surgery was very successful and you will wake up soon.
Jingshu, do you hate me very much? Do you want to curse at me?
I know that I am useless.
Dad, don't worry about the money.
I've already taken care of it.
Didn't you look after Mom without sleeping these few days? Go home first and rest.
Leave this to me.
Meili, in this family, you're the hardest worker.
All this time, we put so much burden on you.
It should be me supporting the family.
Not only didn't I support the family,
but I also burdened you.
That is all in the past now. We are a family, so we should help each other.
That woman looks like Wang Xuan.
She does.
Luckily, we have you to support us.
Dad doesn't have such good luck. I don't deserve such a good daughter like you.
Dad,
you said before that you picked me up from the streets.
Do you know why my parents left me?
I remember back then, I was driving a car and suddenly you came out from the side of the road.
And I was scared to death.
I thought someone must have abandoned you.
Meili.
You... Why are you here?
You... you are that famous singer Wang Xuan!
Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!
Dad, let's go talk inside.
Wait a second. There are something that I must tell your adoptive father.
You must be Meili's adoptive father.
I am so grateful to you.
You're welcome. What's there to thank for?
Why is she thanking me?
- Dad... - Thank you for helping me take care of Meili.
Actually all these years, I regret it so much. I missed her so much.
You said..
you abandoned Meili?
I got it.
This means you are her biological mother?
I thought Jinsheng already told you. Didn't he?
Wh-who is Jinsheng?
Dad!
Shouldn't it be the time for Mom to change her IV? Why isn't the nurse here yet?
Did they forget? Why don't you go check?
No, you finally came here by yourself.
Don't blame me for talking impolitely.
Your songs aren't that bad, but as a person, you have problems.
How could you abandon your own daughter,
and marry a rich man to live and eat well?
You just didn't care about your daughter anymore?
Dad, you misunderstand.
I'm not mistaken. She said so herself!
If it weren't for us, would you still be able to meet Meili today?
- Dad! - Meili
Your dad is right.
You've taken such good care of her.
If there's a chance,
I really want to do something for your family.
Do what? It's too late now!
Dad, stop talking! Go get a nurse.
I...
The doctor is here.
- You are Chen Jingshu's... - I am her daughter.
The fee office wanted me to let you know that some fees aren't paid yet.
We have a guest right now, but we will pay the bill.
Miss Nurse, let me go with you. I'll pay the remaining fees.
Miss Wang, there's no need.
We will pay ourselves.
I'm sorry, please wait for me at the door.
Meili, don't be so polite with me now.
I really want to do something for you.
I am very thankful for your intentions, but this isn't a small amount.
We can't take it.
Child, your adoptive mother has put in so much effort to raise you for all these years.
Just for this,
I am already very grateful.
If I can do something for her, let me return the favor.
Do you understand me? Don't reject me anymore, alright?
We want the money.
Dad!
Can you think of a better idea? If so, tell me.
I'll come back.
Miss Wang.
Dad!
Let me ask you. How did she get here?
She said she is your birth mother herself. So what is really happening?
You don't even know what happened and you scolded her. You even want her money.
How did I scold her? She brought out a pot and I just put on a lid.
I just went along with what she said. Just answering her.
You first explain what is going on.
Before Mom got the surgery, I encountered Wang Xuan's ex-manager.
She said that Wang Xuan is looking for her daughter.
So you are the daughter that Wang Xuan's been searching for all these years?
I'm faking it!
I had no choice but to promise Mr. Sun because of Mom's hospital fee and pretend to be her daughter.
So you must not let this fall through.
You're pretending? Do you know how dangerous that is?
If your Mom wakes up and finds out, do you know how angry she would be?
If her real birth daughter comes back, she will sue you for fraud!
Her daughter died.
Died?
Anyways, it's easier for her to find out if this gets bigger.
Don't let anyone know about this. Not even Meiyan.
Alright, I know.
I must think of a way. I need to end this matter before this gets out of hand.
Isn't that Wang Xuan? I listened to her songs while growing up.
It is. It really is her.
Isn't it Wang Xuan? Isn't it her?
Wow! Isn't that the great superstar Wang Xuan?
She is my sister's idol! I have to quickly tell Sis.
Dad. Sis.
Do you know who I just saw?
I saw big superstar Wang Xuan!
Jie, isn't she your idol?
Don't you have classes in the afternoon? Why are you here now?
Yeah, why are you here? What about school?
Ah, the teacher took a day off.
Sis, quickly go and find her!
Your sister and I haven't eaten the whole day. Go buy us food.
What? I just got here. Let me first take a breath.
What? We're running out of time!
I don't want to go.
Wang... Wang... Wang...
You must be Meili's younger sister.
Wang... Wang...
Wang Wang Wang Wang what? You're not a puppy. ('Wang' sounds like 'woof' in Chinese)
I can see that Meili and you have a good relationship.
Auntie wants to thank you for letting Meili be your sister.
Wow, Wang Xuan called herself to be my auntie.
Is it a reality show? Where is it? Where's the camera?
My daughter, do you have a fever? What reality show?
You must have gone crazy, wanting to become a celebrity.
I don't believe it then. Why would Dad and Sis know Wang Xuan?
I...
Oh, you guys must be hiding something from me.
It's always like this. I'm always the last one to find out.
Just like that time when I found out Sis wasn't Mom's birth daughter.
Don't say anymore!
Let me tell you, Wang Xuan is your sister's birth mother.
Biological mother?
Wow! I'm having a headache! Sis, why didn't you tell me?
Okay, okay, stop talking now. Do I need to tell you these kinds of things?
- Of course you have to. - You are still a little kid. You don't need to know too much.
Your Sis can just talk to the adults.
- Just stop asking more questions. - It's getting late.
The patient still needs to rest.
Meili, if you need any help, you must let me know.
I'm going.
I'll take you.
Dad, Wang Xuan!
What's good about Wang Xuan?
Dad, why can't I be her biological daughter?
Tell me, was it me that was picked up from the street?
You ungrateful little thing. Don't you dare to say it again.
Okay, I was just joking.
Is Sis really Wang Xuan's biological daughter?
That's enough. Don't say too much.
Let me tell you,
you must not tell anyone about this matter.
If you say anything, this will turn into a big problem.
Why? This is a good thing. Why can't I say anything about it?
You cannot tell anyone means you cannot tell anyone!
Okay, I know.
It's cool that Sis is Wang Xuan's birth daughter!
If Jiang Meili took a long leave of absence, it means that she must have gone to the hospital to visit her mom.
This is not right.
I sent her a message and she didn't reply.
Is she mad at me?
And what if I suddenly appear?
Forget it. Forget it.
But that's not right!
I came because I care. She can't be mad at me.
She should be grateful and thank me.
She should really think carefully.
I came all the way to visit Auntie.
What can she possibly say after that?
There's nothing wrong with that!
Why did you lie to me?
You said you were living well.
I didn't want you to be worried.
Then you shouldn't hide things from me.
Meili,
we are mother and daughter, not strangers.
I can help you. Please don't ever hide anything from me.
You will only make me more worried.
Thank you for paying a visit to my mom.
But I hope there won't be next time.
It's burdensome.
Right after I heard about this, I came straight to the hospital to find you.
I wasn't considerate of you.
I promise you, I won't be impulsive next time.
However, you also need to promise me.
Don't ever lie to me again. Ok?
No matter what, I should thank you.
Hearing you saying thank you,
my heart hurts.
In this world
where do you find a mother and daughter always saying thank you to each other?
Wang Xuan and Jiang Meili?
In the last 20 years, you've never given up to find me.
I believe that you must have your reason to leave me.
I don't blame you.
So don't blame yourself anymore.
♫ My dear child, ♫
♫ why didn't you let me know? ♫
♫ Did the wind blow out the candle, ♫
Thank you Meili ♫ so that you'd have to walk alone in the dark? ♫
Do you know how important your forgiveness is? ♫ Dear child, quickly wipe away your tears ♫
♫ I'm willing to walk with you, on this path back home ♫
I should be the thankful one.
I'm so glad you are able to help with the hospital bills.
Go back to the room. Take good care of your adoptive mother.
I can go by myself.
Miss Wang, I'm sorry for lying to you.
Even though your daughter is no longer in this world,
I believe that if she knew how much you had missed her,
she would've definitely forgiven you.
Jiang Meili.
How come you're here?
We should have a good chat.
Wang Xuan said she's your mom? What's your relationship with her?
What nonsense are you talking about? You must've heard it wrong.
Jiang Meili,
you know I'm very sensitive to sound.
My ears didn't hear it wrong.
I am certain that I heard Wang Xuan saying that she's your mother.
Are you certain that everything you heard was right?
The whole world knows that she has only one daughter, Xu Ruolin.
How can she be my mother?
If you had a celebrity mom,
would you still work as a courier if you could borrow money from her?
Fine. I guess I was wrong.
Nonetheless, I definitely saw Wang Xuan.
Why is she here? Why is she paying your mother's hospital fee?
Seems to me your relationship with her isn't ordinary.
I'm her fan.
She has a good heart. She knows that I'm going through a difficult time.
That's why she came and lent me some money.
Are you satisfied with my answer?
If there's nothing else, I'm going.
Jiang Meili.
Director Guan, I beg of you
stop following me!
I don't want Miss Xu to yell at me again because of you.
Sorry,
I'm not coming for you. I am here to see your mother.
Director Guan!
Director Guan,
I heard that my sis didn't sing well
and didn't sign the contract.
The $20,000 in the contract...
We'll talk about the contract when Auntie wakes up.
The money we owe you, I will pay it back.
Jiang Meiyan, listen carefully.
Don't do anything and just listen to whatever your sister says. Don't make any trouble.
Don't be concerned with adult's business.
Why do you always treat me like a kid?
I will think of a way to earn the money back.
I will return the money!
