[Beautiful Secret]
[Episode 16]
Come in.
CEO. Miss Jiang is here.
Hi Meili, please have a seat.
Please.
Sit, sit.
Do you want some water?
It's okay.
Can I know what do you want me here for?
Meili, from now on, you can call me Uncle Xu.
You don't have to be so uncomfortable with me.
How is your family doing lately?
If there is anything that you need help with, do let me know immediately.
We are doing well.
It's just my mom.
Someone put a box in her hospital room.
There was a scary-looking doll inside the box.
How can that be?
This is way too improper.
Did you call the police?
-I did. -That's good.
Let the police handle these kinds of matters.
Also, I will immediately arrange a nursing aid for your adoptive mother,
-to prevent this type of thing from happening again. -You don't need to.
This is how it's supposed to be so you don't have to be polite.
The safety of your adoptive mother is the most important.
Thank you Uncle Xu.
Meili, actually your mother,
I'm saying your birth mother, worries about you a lot.
She's also very apologetic to your family.
But you know
those people are watching over us.
She can't publicly show that she cares for you.
I hope you understand.
I know. I understand.
When you two met each other before,
had caused some inconvenience to your family.
Now that the identity is exposed,
has also caused some trouble.
Your family members' safety have been threatened.
We've made a mistake,
we should deal with the aftermath.
Don't say that.
No one can predict it. We can't blame it on anyone.
But the problem is that there should be a solution.
I think very throughly.
There is only one way
to solve all these disputes.
Meili. Why don't you and your family leave?
Look! Everyone is talking about it out there.
Those, who have a hidden agenda, are not letting me and your biological mother go.
And those unreasonable fans,
you never know what kind of crazy things they will do later?
So, in my opinion, the only way is to have you guys leaving this place.
So they have no way to make it worse.
This way, both families,
can go back to our quiet lives.
Meili. What do you think?
But... My family has no where to go.
Don't worry about that.
I have an empty house in Canada.
I can arrange you guys to live over there.
Canada?
And I can take care of everything else.
Once the chaos is over, if you guys want to come back,
you can come back any time.
No. My Mom...
I mean my adoptive Mother is still at the hospital.
We can't leave her behind.
I heard there is a hospital in Canada.
Its specialty is to treat
someone like your mom.
A lot of people were cured over there.
We will send your Mother on a special medical airplane
after you guys get there. What do you think?
So you mean my Mom's illness can be cured?
Meili.
All the troubles happened because of us.
You should at least give us a chance to make it up for you.
Your biological mother might be guilty for the rest of her life.
So you mean...
Your mom won't go with us this time.
Chairman Xu said. They need to check Mom first.
Then they can apply with the proper department.
So it might take awhile before she can leave.
But if we wait until then,
something might happen to us.
How can we do that?
Recently, because we are trying to hide,
The nursing aid has taken care of your Mom most of the time.
I am already not feeling at ease.
Now we will leave your Mom behind and leave the country first.
No. No. There is no way no matter what you say.
Dad! Chairman Xu already stated.
He will hire someone to take care of Mom 24 hours.
What are you worrying about? There is no problem, right?
Because you want to go to Canada, you are going to leave your Mom behind?
What are you thinking?
Why don't you think about this?
Those people have already threaten us all the way here.
What if something happens to your Mom? Those hired nursing aids,
would they protect us like we are their family?
No wonder your Mom said you
never think for others.
Seriously! You are really a heartless person.
How can you portray me in such a bad way?
I was thinking for Mom.
Think about it. There are doctors who can take care of Mom in Canada.
Do you want Mom lying on a bed for the rest of her life?
Watch what you are saying! Pah! Pah!
Enough! Stop fighting!
It's such a big deal. Let's think it over a bit.
Please come in.
You are here.
I can take it from here.
In case, someone saw.
We will leave it to you then. We will leave.
- It's fine. - We are counting on you.
Hurry!
Okay. Let's go quick!
Finally we got through.
Let your sister out.
Over there!
- Who? - Who are you?
- What are you guys doing? - Help!
- Hurry and come help!
What are you guys doing?
- Run! - Stop! Don't run!
So stinky!
Essential oil candle for stinky socks.
It should work.
Let's bring some home first.
Lighter, sister. It hurts.
Why didn't you get away?
You knew those people were coming for me.
You just stood there and let them splash you.
We are family.
We can't let you stand in the front all the time.
Today... see it as shift work.
It's Dad's and my turn. You are off today.
Jiang Meiyan. Can you make light of something like this?
You are too reckless.
Because I knew they were coming for you,
that's why I couldn't dodge away.
What if they wanted your life?
Even so, you couldn't do that.
But I wanted to do something for you.
Every time... It is always me causing the trouble.
I make more mistakes when I want to do better.
Like this time,
I was so angry with Zhang Quan,
so I accidentally leaked the news of you being Wang Xuan's daughter.
But I didn't do it on purpose, Sis.
I didn't think it would become so serious.
I am sorry.
Silly. Have you ever thought that
if something happened to you when you did that,
I would be even more sad.
You!
So stinky!
- It is so stinky. - Throw it away!
Who fell into a manure pit?
Sorry.
Something happened to us at the hospital today.
My Dad and my sister were splashed with something dirty.
Those clothes were splashed with poop.
Dad!
Splashing manure, threatening with a doll.
Besides that note,
what else did the scoundrel say?
Nothing. Why did you ask?
What is wrong?
I just think that
they do this is more like a warning.
It's different from the crazy fans,
who just want to vent because their dreams are broken.
During these days,
what kind of crazy people that we don't have?
For their own idols,
there are people who would do ten times crazier than this.
Good thing today they only splashed us with poop. If they used something else instead,
we might have lost our lives.
I guess we can only say yes to them.
Say yes to what?
Uncle Xu said,
he is arranging us to move overseas so we can escape from this.
They will send my Mom to an overseas hospital later too.
He wants us three to go first.
This way, no one will be in danger.
But we couldn't leave our Mom behind.
Dad. What about this?
You and Meiyan go first. I will stay behind and take care of Mom.
Jiang Meili. Are you scared to stupidity?
Those crazy people are aiming at you.
If you stay behind, you are only causing more danger.
Yes. Director Guan is right.
- Let me... - That's worse.
With Uncle's personality,
besides attracting danger, you will create more problems.
In fact, Chairman Xu's idea is correct.
Only if you three leave completely,
those people won't have a target to scold and attack.
So they won't go to hospital to make more trouble.
When you guys are away,
you can ask Chairman Xu
to send more people to watch over Auntie.
I believe with their financial background.
there shouldn't be a problem to protect a patient.
You should think carefully.
If they really want to hurt Auntie,
They would have already done it.
They don't need all these threatening tricks.
To be honest, your existence
only puts your mother in danger.
Since you guys have already decided,
then I will arrange it as soon as possible.
Tianhao, Tianhao.
Something happened to Meili.
I just saw it online. Someone at the hospital was a witness.
Meili and her family were attacked.
Wang Xuan, Wang Xuan wait up.
Wang Xuan, what do you want to do?
I want to go find Meili. I need to protect her.
I can't allow anyone else to bully her.
Wang Xuan, what can you do if you go?
Shield her from those things that was thrown at her?
Or yell at those waiting to gossip?
You can't do anything. You will only make the problem bigger.
When people ask you those embarrassing questions, how are you going to answer?
I'm telling you, no matter how you answer,
Meili will still end up getting hurt.
But at least I can be next to her.
And let her know that me, as her mother,
didn't leave and not care about her.
Wang Xuan,
do you know what caused all of these today?
It's you.
It's your stubbornness, your perseverance.
So we got caught in this messy, ugly situation.
20 years,
these 20 years I have supported you.
Even though Ruolin doesn't understand,
even though I lost money because you were looking for your daughter,
Did I, Xu Tianhao, ever complained to you?
But now I have to tell you,
you have to listen to me.
You can't just do whatever you want.
Any of your irrational moves
will only bring us more disasters.
But
I can't watch my child
take the blow for me. I can't do it.
Tian Hao!
I know, I know Wang Xuan.
I was not just a spectator either.
I've already arranged Meili and her family to go to Canada.
I've discussed it with her,
I was just on the phone with her.
She already agreed.
Canada.
Such a far place.
Wang Xuan, if you really want what's best for your daughter,
you must listen to me.
Otherwise,
one day she might actually hate you.
If you like her, then go and chase her! Loudly declare that you like her!
Whether you succeed or not relies on this. Don't be like a dry-fried yellow fish,
being tortured with that emotion.
Say what, she's leaving the country.
You're still not sleeping?
Same to you.
Suddenly think about living outside the country,
makes me uncomfortable, so I can't sleep.
Director Guan,
I have something to tell you.
Sure, tell me.
Thank you so much for your care these days.
You not only helped take care of the contract,
but also took us in.
Also,
I took your money yet I didn't sing.
I'm really sorry about that.
That's all you wanted to say?
Don't worry!
I'll definitely find a way to pay you back.
It just might take a while.
Jiang Meili.
Is your brain only filled with money?
Don't worry, I've thought of it as money thrown away.
I wasn't planning to ask it back.
Why're you suddenly mad?
I won't bother you anymore. Good night.
I am 20 years old.
I am a girl.
This boy- -You're still reading that?
Didn't you say you were getting some water? Why did you take so long?
I bumped into Director Guan in the kitchen
and chatted a bit.
I've finally managed to get close with Director Guan
and we have to be separated.
I can't bear it.
Do you think we're always going to be welcome here?
That's weird.
Why hasn't Director Guan confessed to me yet?
Don't tell me he's going to wait until we're on the plane?
How are we supposed to work on our relationship like that?
Should I take the initiative?
Ok! It's late, stop reading.
Go sleep.
You should sleep early too.
It's so fun~
Besides, you didn't like me right?
You know inside that I don't feel that way to you.
That's right, I'm just overthinking.
The news that Wang Xuan has a biological daughter,
is now blowing up in the media.
Director Xu,
I'm not the one who leaked this.
I know, did I blame you?
Th-then why aren't you letting me leave?
And you took back the money you gave me.
Sun Jinsheng don't worry.
Money that's supposed to be yours is yours.
Moreover, you have information that can be held against me.
If I pressure you too much, you might one day tell Wang Xuan what happened.
I would lose more than now.
Director Xu, don't beat around the bush.
The reason I'm keeping you here
is because I need you to do one more thing for me.
Send Jiang Meili and her family
out of the country.
Director Xu, your secretary can do that.
You don't need me.
No. I need to send them to Hong Kong
before they get their passports.
This way we can lose those people who won't go away.
Sun Jinsheng, you're familiar with Hong Kong.
I'll rest assure knowing that you'll accompany them.
But Director Xu,
this Jiang Meili isn't Rourou.
She's not Wang Xuan's real daughter!
She's just someone you hired to play a role.
You don't need to go through so much trouble.
Sun Jinsheng!
The main thing is not if she's real or not.
Wang Xuan believes that she's real.
As long as she believes that she's real,
we have to see her as Wang Xuan's biological daughter.
This way we can comfort Wang Xuan.
After all, isn't this the reason we hired the girl?
Ok. When the deed is done,
I'll give you extra money.
Thank you Director Xu.
I'll do it.
Hey, sis! You're washing the dishes?
You're working hard~
Let me tell you,
this new flavor is delicious!
Meiyan!
Give me another beer.
Why can't you get it yourself? Geez. Excuse me.
Time for cookies~
Amazing.
Let me repeat this for you guys,
This isn't our house. -This isn't our house.
You say it every day, we can memorize it.
Yea!
If it wasn't because Director Guan was afraid we'd get hurt and didn't let us leave,
who would want to stay inside and eat cookies?
Alright,
I saw that there're still beer bottles and wrappers in the living room,
after you guys finish eating, can you find a garbage bag
to clean up and recycle them?
Yes, understood.
That drawer has garbage bags.
I know. But the bags are kind of small.
Meili.
I know. I'll go open the door.
Can I...
I remember now!
You're Director Guan's father right? We met before.
Please come in.
It's ok.
I'll go after I leave this here.
Director Guan has left for work already.
Should I tell him to come back?
You don't need to.
I don't have anything important.
Miss,
you're here both times that I came.
Are you Guan Yi's girlfriend?
I'm not, you've misunderstood.
Actually, today is Guan Yi's Birthday.
Can you give this to him?
Since it's a Birthday present, do you want to give it to him in person?
He won't take it.
I originally wanted someone to bring it over.
If miss could do this favor for me, I'd be happy.
This trip wouldn't be a waste.
Don't worry, I'll give it to him.
Thank you, then I'll be leaving now.
Take care.
Happy Birthday to you~ Happy Birthday to you~
Happy Birthday to you!
Honey, are you happy on your Birthday?
Happy.
To be able to spend another Birthday with you,
mom is also very happy.
If it's possible,
mom wishes,
to spend a few more years with you.
You definitely will.
I just made a wish for mom to get better soon.
I've gotten old but not grown up,
how can I feel hurt because I'm lonely on my birthday?
These people, acting all secretive to give me a surprise.
I've seen through you.
The candles, the candles.
Who has a lighter? -I do, I do.
Plates, plates.
Be quiet, don't let anyone hear.
Did Xiuxiu trick the birthday star to come?
I did, I did. Rest assured.
These tricksters.
It's going to be noisy later.
She's here, she's here, hurry!
What? -Hurry!
Ms. Shasha, Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!
You guys! Geez,
I said I didn't want to celebrate my Birthday.
Alright, alright, time for cake!
Ms. Shasha your beer.
Wish Ms. Shasha to get younger and prettier as the years go by!
Treat us food! Treat us food!
Ok, I must!
Come in.
Director,
do you want to celebrate with us?
Today is Ms. Shasha's Birthday.
No need, you guys have fun.
Then I'll be leaving.
Yiqiang.
You guys remembered today is Ms. Shasha's Birthday?
Of course! How can we forget such an important birthday?
If you're Emperor Guan,
she's our Goddess of the Earth.
Every little and big things within Cheng Yi, she knows them all.
People only pay respect to Emperor Guan on the first and fifteen of each month.
But you have to pass by the God of the earth everyday.
Should I treat her well?
Fine. Go celebrate!
Okay.
[Ruolin -- Let's have lunch today?]
Enjoy!
I thought you the birthday boy would already have a date.
I didn't know that I would have a chance to celebrate it with you.
I know. You don't like birthday.
You think it is tacky, right?
So I didn't order a cake today.
I remember the year when we were dating. When it was your Birthday,
either you were busy with recording or I was busy promoting (my record).
We didn't have time to celebrate.
Who knew that the first time celebrating your Birthday,
is after we broke up.
I heard you already met with Director Zhao and Director Li in private.
Yes. I won't deny it. It is because I don't want to give up my album.
I know you are thinking for me.
You don't want to lose the focus.
But I've already thought it through.
This time, I want to seize the opportunity and get some browny point for myself because of the event.
Listen and I am sure you will agree.
Okay. Could we not discuss this?
I won't want to be used on my Birthday.
But the result won't be as good if I miss the chance.
Okay. what do you want to talk about? I will do it.
Let's talk about what I have felt.
When we were going out, I really treasured our relationship.
I also believe giving for relationship is a must.
But you seemed to see through that,
You always wanted me to do something for you.
Guan Yi, the way you judge me is not fair.
I have no purpose in getting close to you.
I really just loved you.
I know
I'm not doubting you.
I just wanted to say that you used your love to gain something.
At first, you hoped that I could help you become famous and reach a higher status,
but now, you hope that I can help you return to your glorious moment.
To be honest, when you decided to go to America without a word,
I kept waiting for you, waiting for you to call me and explain,
but after such a long time, I didn't receive anything.
That's because I was too afraid to call, and couldn't call.
I said that if I heard your voice, I would become weak
and would try to go back to you.
But I didn't want a moment of weakness to make me lose all of my patience and hard work.
But in this time,
because of anger and disappointment,
the love I had for you were all used up and gone bit by bit.
Sorry. I don't have any appetite.
You can eat by yourself.
Guan Yi.
There is no love in this world that is without purpose and intention.
Besides the love between men and women, even parents' love for their kids,
it is not totally giving without return.
You should know this very well.
So you shouldn't measure me with such a high standard.
Because there is no pure and selfless love around us.
Jiang Meili!
Jiang Meili?!
Where are they?
Didn't I tell them to not go anywhere?
♫ Happy Birthday to you! ♫
Happy Birthday!
How.. did you guys know it is my birthday?
Living under someone else' roof. We should play nice.
Hearing you saying that. It is like blaming me who is being mean to you and your daughters.
Not at all. Director Guan has saved us when we needed help.
You have been good to us.
He's not saving us,
Saving us when we need help is Guanyin (Chinese goddess).
Director Guan is Emperor Guan. He is brave and faithful!
What is this? Is this a cake?
There is nothing we can do.
We are afraid to go out and buy stuff.
So we can only look through your kitchen and find stuff.
We can only find these after looking high and low.
Director Guan. Make a wish and blow the candle.
Yay! Happy Birthday!
- Happy Birthday! - Having birthday this way. How uncreative is this?
We are not as creative as Director Guan.
But we are very sincere.
Yes. We are very sincere.
Here. Let's take the alcohol.
Thank you Director for your alcohol. Thank you for taking us in when we had nowhere to go.
Don't treat Director Guan as an outsider.
Here.
Okay. I will wish you living safely and happily everyday.
What's wrong?
Nothing. Only... it is our first time hearing Director Guan saying something like that.
It is a bit hard to get used to.
It gave me chills.
Do you want me to say, you three try do your best,
no one will clean up after you when you get out of here?
Yes. That sounds more like it.
We are more used to that.
Happy Birthday!
Thanks!
Here.
Cheers.
Did you get everything cleaned up?
Almost. Meiyan is doing the dishes.
We know today is your birthday because of this.
Why would you have this action figure?
Your Dad delivered it after you had left this morning.
Jiang Meili. You are meddling in other people's business too much.
How can you take this without my permission?
He thought I would forgive him if he did this?
Don't.
Did you know? Your Dad worked really hard to come here on his own with a cane today.
He only wanted to give you this.
I can tell he really loves you.
Love?
Then what was he doing in the past?
When I needed love, where was he?
He should have used this to prove his love for me before.
Not like now.
I think his "love" is only because he is afraid that I won't take care of him.
Your saying is too extreme.
But it is extremely true.
Someone told me today. Even parents' love for their kid won't be just giving and not asking for return.
In this world, there is no pure and selfless love.
I think this really makes sense.
Didn't your life just prove that?
You are not Jiang Family's real daughter.
Your love for them comes with repayment.
Just like Wang Xuan's love for you.
It is more like making it up to you.
You are making it too complicated.
I have never think too much of it.
To me, I do it for my family only because they are my father, mother and sister.
I only hope that they are happy everyday.
Of course. Their actions sometimes make me sad.
But I know they have me in their heart.
If I have any difficulty or if I am in danger,
they will help me and save me no matter what, just like what I do for them.
That is enough.
Anything else doesn't matter.
Because you should not calculate that much with your family.
This action figure... I will keep it for you right now.
I will give it back when you are calmer.
Besides the love between men and women, even parents' love for their kids,
are not always 100% giving and not asking for any return.
You should know, shouldn't you?
So, you shouldn't measure me with such a high standard.
Because there is no pure and selfless love around us.
Xu Ruolin, you're wrong.
There's one by my side.
Okay. I will go get the door. I will get it.
I am coming.
- It's Mr. Sun. - Hello, Old Jiang.
So... Your passports and visas are ready.
I brought them to you. Also, I want to let you know that we will be going to Hong Kong the morning after tomorrow.
So soon!
- We have brought you so much trouble. - Not at all.
It is my first time going over sea. I don't know anything.
Good thing you help us doing all those.
- Thanks! - Not at all.
Is Meili home?
Yes.
Meili and Director Guan are talking something important.
I will be leaving the place I have lived in the past two decades in 2 days.
It is time to drink with your friends and relatives to say goodbye.
I am going crazy by staying here.
Mr. Sun. Could you take me out to have a walk?
Go where?
I have stayed here for awhile now.
Take me out for a drink later.
As long as we are careful.
I crave for alcohol.
Finally, I meet someone who can drink with me.
You can see it as a farewell party for me.
Okay.
Thank you, Mr. Sun. I can't believe it happens so soon.
Look at me who is at this age now,
I have to leave my hometown and go to such a far away place.
I'm a little reluctant to leave.
You should view it as someone paying for your family to travel.
That's not necessarily a bad thing right?
- Yes. Yes. - Here. Have a drink.
Yes.
You see, Meili, that child. Ever since she was young,
she always say, "When I grow up, I'll bring you guys overseas to have fun."
It really is happening.
That kid, I can see that she is good to her parents and a very considerate kid.
By the way,
Why did you guys decide to adopt Meili back then?
It's fate.
That day, I just passed by an intersection in my car,
when she suddenly appeared!
I hit the breaks right away.
She scared me so bad I almost peed my pants.
That child was Meili.
Afterwards, my wife said this child would be called Jiang Meili.
It's been 20 years since.
She's been my daughter for 20 years.
From what you said, she wasn't originally called Jiang Meili.
I think she was called... called...
Rou Rou.
Mr. Jiang, Meili probably told you that name recently right?
Yea.
That's what Meili told me.
Your wife was pregnant at the time.
So why didn't you return Meili to her biological parents?
Why did you insist on raising her?
Do you think I wanted to?
I thought about it before.
At the time, she was this tall
and around 4, 5 years old.
I asked her.
I said, what's your dad's name?
She said she did not know.
I asked, what about your mom?
Guess what she told me?
Uncle said I couldn't say.
Since then, she went through a bad illness.
and forgot about everything.
I couldn't ask even if I wanted to.
Mr. Jiang.
What did you just say?
I couldn't ask even if I wanted to.
No, before that. Listen to me,
you just said, you asked who Meili's dad was and she didn't know.
Then you asked who her mom was,
and what did she say?
You didn't ask any further?
Good question.
How did I not ask any further?
I asked who her dad was,
she said "I didn't know".
So her mom should be "I didn't remember".
But what did she reply?
Uncle said, I couldn't say.
How could I ask any further?
Mr. Jiang? Mr. Jiang!
Did Meili tell you the name Rou Rou recently or before?
She said it-
Get up and tell me.
-Mr. Jiang! -She--
Mr. Jiang! Mr. Jiang!
Where did you pick up Rou Rou?
Ping Shan Elementary.
Which intersection at Ping Shan Elementary? Which one?
Which intersection?!

♫ Maybe we were just one step away from happiness ♫
♫ But If you and she are happy, ♫
♫ just forget how much I once loved you ♫
♫ Maybe we were just one step away from happiness ♫
♫ It's a pity that we only made it this far ♫
♫ And it's too late to say goodbye ♫
♫ Maybe we were just one step away from happiness ♫
♫ But If you and she are happy, ♫
♫ just forget how much I once loved you ♫
