[Game of Hunting]
[Episode 31]
Who's the idiot in the hallway?
My ex-ex-boyfriend. I can't even remember his name.
Open up!
What's he here for?
He blew money gambling and came demanding I pay him.
I cannot go outside. He knows martial arts!
I have nothing to do with him anymore! Why is coming to me for money?
He thinks I'm easy to bully.
You really cut ties with him?
I really did.
You don't owe him money?
No! I swear!
He owes me over 4,000 yuan. He's a real hooligan.
Open up!
Open the door!
Okay, I'll handle him.
Shao Shao, call Li and all the guys and girls.
They can't just eat, drink, and play cards.
When there's trouble, everybody has to come together.
What are you going to do to him?
Make him scram.
Open up! Open up! Open up!
What are you guys going to do?
Shao Shao.
The elevator.
I was good to you.
You were being good to me by forcing me to sleep with your father's cousin?
I don't have any money! Help! I won't gamble anymore!
I won't gamble again! I really won't!
- Yi Mei, the elevator is here. - I won't gamble again!
Throw him out.
I'll stop gambling! I'll stop!
I won't gamble again! I won't gamble!
- Stop moving! - I won't gamble again!
He has a herniated disc. Is he going to be all right?
Peng Cun Cun, you're a wretch!
No, I...
Don't say anything else.
Forget it! Let's go!
Yi Mei.
When do you think women like us
can become successful in a big city like this?
First, work diligently and become someone useful.
Everyone can use a useful person.
Second, treat others sincerely.
Only those who like you will help you.
Third.
Marry a reliable man.
We aren't capable enough, so we need their help.
Am I someone who treats others sincerely?
Of course.
Yi Mei.
I've done something to betray you.
- I-- - Mi Na.
Don't continue.
Let me ask you.
Was what you did to betray me...
beneficial for you?
Did you benefit a lot?
It might be a lot.
It will be greatly beneficial for my superior and my company.
- I lost reason in the moment-- - Don't say anything else.
Never tell me what you did.
Or we won't be able to be friends anymore.
Mi Na, remember this.
As long as it benefits you...
you haven't done anything wrong.
We are friends.
Vice Chairman Yuan, what can I do for you?
Qiu Dong, did Lin Bai contact you today?
- No. - It's like this.
I've been thinking all day and have come to a decision.
I hope you will understand.
What is it?
I saw you meeting with Chen Xiu Feng at the hospital
and this is after you received my files.
I have no choice but to think the worst.
I've decided to remove you from my team.
Can you understand?
Vice Chairman Yuan, you got the wrong idea.
I already knew Chen Xiu Feng.
It was my mistake, then.
If I had known you two were already acquainted
I wouldn't have involved you.
Let's rewind and not think too much about this.
Qiu Dong, can you understand?
I do.
But I still want to explain.
It's late. You should get some rest.
Explaining will increase the misunderstandings.
Dissolving our partnership doesn't mean I doubt you.
Rather, it is a procedural measure.
All right.
I won't explain further.
I believe in your honest character.
After leaving my team, you won't headhunt Chen Xiu Feng.
Goodbye.
How come you came alone?
Hello, Mr. Chen!
I'm not here for work.
Look, I came to give you some coffee recommendations.
I bought four different coffees for you.
The difference will be in who I drink it with.
You're dressed so attractively today.
Vice Chairman Yuan didn't send you to set a honey trap, did he?
Mr. Chen, people don't compliment others like that.
This is how I usually dress.
I delivered a blow to Vice Chairman Yuan. He didn't tell you?
No.
If you really did...
Then I hope he doesn't find out I came to see you.
Is that appropriate?
Come, this way.
It's bitter enough but not quite acidic.
This probably isn't the most authentic Blue Mountain coffee
but it was definitely sourced from Jamaica.
Remember this. The best Blue Mountain isn't in Jamaica, but in your memories.
I've been to Jamaica.
The photos in the dining room were taken at a Blue Mountain coffee plantation.
You have an acute sense of taste.
This must have to do with your family business.
A sensitive palate is also crucial when it comes to wine.
Smart.
Here.
Thank you.
Oh, right.
I have a client who heads a provincial hospital.
Do you need any help with your father's illness?
No, thank you.
God says that's unnecessary.
Do you have dinner plans?
If you don't mind
would you do me the honor of roasting lamb chops and drinking wine here?
I think I can only say yes.
Thank you for spending the afternoon with me.
You're welcome to come again.
I learn a lot from you.
There's even a table full of delicious food. It's enjoyable for me.
I will come by often.
I hope you won't find me a bother.
A gentle breeze, light clouds, and a beauty in the moonlight.
Even fairies won't find that a bother.
I've already called a car for you.
It's waiting for you out front. Take care.
Goodbye, Mr. Chen.
You've been drinking. You should go straight home.
Goodbye.
You're kidding. You're still not up yet?
I didn't fall asleep until morning.
Why the heck are you video calling me?
Did Yuan Kun call you last night?
Yes.
What do you think?
I was very upset last night.
You know I'm most afraid of others looking down on me.
I was twisting and turning in bed all night.
I feel much better now. I can understand.
Yuan Kun knows you're also headhunting Chen Xiu Feng.
He's just throwing out guesses.
No, he explicitly mentioned a Hong Kong offshore company.
He even knows that?
I haven't been taking this seriously, then.
I actually think this is a good thing in the long run.
This avoids adding more misunderstandings and ending up a dead knot situation.
Yes, I agree with you.
Anybody would have been suspicious.
I'm not a saint.
Even though you've withdrawn from the team
you can't headhunt Chen Xiu Feng.
I know.
I respect Yuan Kun.
I'll look for someone else for the offshore company.
Do you have any recommendations?
I do.
I'm your Song Jiang, the Timely Rain.
After Orient Investments moved to investment entities
they made adjustments to their senior management.
This Bian Chong was left out.
He seems to lack experience in offshore finance.
Dong Wei Lian wants someone capable of controlling domestic investments
not someone who handles currency and needs immunity.
Having operational experience is sufficient.
Manager Lin.
Chairman Zheng.
What are you staring at?
Is there anything else you need, Chairman Zheng?
I already told Manager Lin about us.
Dared to seduce the boss?
You have guts.
I can't help it. My boss is charming.
My wife is coming in a few days.
Let's have dinner together.
You'll have to officially introduce Jia to us.
Definitely.
How come your wife is visiting again? Isn't it exhausting to go back and forth?
She won't be leaving this time.
I really might be getting old.
I really want to have a real family life now.
You're not getting old. You just see the big picture now.
You two carry on. Call me if you need anything.
It seems she isn't official yet.
She seems to be stuck between the role of subordinate and girlfriend.
Of course, she's not to blame. If anyone's to blame, it's you.
You're still keeping it secret?
I can't say anything.
I'm the one who created the rule of no romances in the office.
I can't undermine my own authority.
Then wait a bit before telling.
Let's talk about Chen Xiu Feng.
I keep feeling I was humiliated by Yuan Kun.
Humiliated?
That's too extreme.
Do you know Yuan Kun likely won't be able to recruit Chen Xiu Feng?
His assistant says he's making an amended report.
He was turned down?
Don't try to use me for inside information.
Regardless of whether I end up with Bian Chong or Chen Xiu Feng
I have to thank you.
I'm extremely interested in Chen Xiu Feng.
You're limited on time.
Chen Xiu Feng is an uncertainty.
This Bian Chong is in great demand.
Someone else will snatch him right up if you loosen your grip.
Offshore finance is rather unique.
I need to be responsible to the client.
What if you arrange an interview?
It'd be a good idea to let them decide.
We'll go with what you said.
Am I an irresponsible person?
You're genuinely hypocritical.
Notify Dong Wei Lian that a new candidate has passed review
and an interview can be arranged.
The CEO of Ninth Sky Technologies says
they can outsource their campus recruitment to us.
Of course we'll accept that.
Pu Jian, you're most familiar with campus recruitment.
Help Manager Tian with Ninth Sky Technologies.
Okay.
Chairman Zheng, I'm leaving.
- You're still here? - Yes, I'm going now.
Don't forget I'll treat you and Jia to dinner in a few days.
Jia, remember to remind him. His mind right now...
I'm taking off now.
This tastes good.
No need to walk me out. Bye!
I was just thinking about telling you.
You may not have clearly understood what Manager Lin just said.
I'll make an official announcement.
Jia Yi Mei and I are now dating.
The left side a bit lower, just a bit.
Okay, that's good.
[Financial Affairs Office]
Look at you. You're grinning from ear to ear.
Isn't that good?
How did you get here?
I took a taxi.
But I can't come up with any other candidates.
- I'll drive you, then. - No need to.
Can you tell me specifically what you are dissatisfied with?
- Bye. - Bye.
I can't say specifically.
I just feel this person...
isn't a solid choice.
Excuse me.
- What's going on? - It's a complete mess.
Mi Na and Chen Xiu Feng are secretly together.
Seduction.
Mi Na told me herself.
Could it have been her one-sided fantasy?
White collar women carry a lot of worries.
They're liable to have delusions when they encounter a charming man
and often fool themselves.
Yi Mei, everything happened so suddenly.
It started with a cup of coffee.
If you want something to happen
even just a drop of water would be enough.
This Chen Xiu Feng has a wife.
That's why it was unexpected.
I originally only felt respect for him.
But after spending more time with him...
He exudes a sort of premium hormone....
A degree of premium hormones.
There's warmth and desire.
If you hit on a married man
you need to leave a way to look out for yourself.
Has he promised you anything?
This sort of thing never comes with promises.
It's a mutual understanding.
The complete opposite of dating.
What has he said?
He said...
Meeting me felt like being lost.
That's so fake.
Meeting you
gave me mixed feelings.
It's like when I was young and lost my way in my hometown in Dry Valley.
I was afraid but didn't want to call out for help.
I just continued on in a daze.
Before long, in an unexpected place
I'd see the way home.
You old-school intellectuals all thrive under pressure.
In the end, you'll still find the way home
not daring to stick to the course.
Yes, I don't dare.
When I was in my twenties
I teased those in their forties and fifties in the same way.
A day like this will come for you too.
I don't want to see you frown.
I don't want to see you in a difficult position.
Nor do I want to affect your family.
As long as I have memories with you
I will be content enough.
When humans know they are doing the wrong thing...
why do they still continue doing it?
In secret, taking chances...
and risking life and limb to do it?
I feel it.
I can't explain.
Why do you think?
Because...
Because we can't help it.
So he and you-- Look at me.
How far have you two gone?
I knew you'd be concerned about that.
Give me a break. I'm worried on your behalf.
Keep in mind that this is all that men will do with mistresses.
I'm not a mistress.
He and I have checked all the boxes.
I don't mean a baby.
By the way, let me tell you.
I resemble his wife when she was younger.
He said that? Line and hook phrase.
Men all use this to test the waters with young women.
Stereotypical move.
No, I've seen a photo of his wife when she was younger.
I really do look like her.
Did you come to see me to tell me this?
In the moment I felt feelings for him
the first thing I thought of doing was to tell you.
I wanted my best friend to know.
Does Vice Chairman Yuan know about this?
No.
Do you think I should let him know?
Do you think Yuan Kun couldn't accept being rejected by Chen Xiu Feng
so he used Mi Na to seduce him?
Do you think he planned this?
My first thought isn't that it's love. It happened too quickly.
There's something else even more scary.
It seems it was Mi Na
who stole Chen Xiu Feng's information from my computer.
How do you know?
She seemed to regret it and wanted to confess to me.
This makes it more horrible.
Yuan Kun recruited me into his team and then kicked me out.
This was all planned.
Now I can't touch Chen Xiu Feng.
A conspiracy.
To go to such great lengths...
Someone on Yuan Kun's level is unlikely to go so far.
When it comes to one's interests, there are no limits.
In the end, Mi Na still didn't admit to stealing the data?
She nearly did. I stopped her from saying it.
It's not easy for young women to survive in the workplace.
Even if she resorts to every trick in her book
it's because she had no other choice.
It's not her fault.
I'm to blame for having poor confidentiality awareness.
Let her off. This is on me. There won't be a next time.
Yi Mei, that's not my intention.
Chen Xiu Feng was also my headhunting target.
Yuan Kun beat me to the chase but was mercilessly rejected.
It's a six million yuan case. Would he give up?
Now Mi Na says she and Chen Xiu Feng are together.
This is worth suspecting.
If there is someone pushing her to get close to Chen Xiu Feng
then it must be Yuan Kun.
It's seduction.
So what if it is?
So what if Yuan Kun is using her for coercion?
Chen Xiu Feng wanted to cheat and Mi Na wanted to get a break.
In my opinion, it was a moment of weakness between a man and woman
What do you want to do? We have our own worries.
I don't want to meddle in other people's business.
But I'm very irritated that I was played by Yuan Kun.
There's also one more reason that makes me displeased.
I've always felt respect for Kui Huang.
For some reason, the first time I met her, I felt a sense of closeness.
I don't wish to see her family destroyed by Yuan Kun.
You don't have to explain. She's Luo Yi Ren's friend, right?
That's enough, Yi Mei.
There's no controlling a wild imagination.
I shouldn't have kept rambling.
Luo Yi Ren today, Xiong Qing Chun tomorrow.
- Is there any point? - There is.
Let's not talk about Mi Na. Tell me.
The ones in your past were merely passersby.
I'm your true love.
Say it.
Those in the past weren't even passersby.
They weren't anything. You're my true love.
Satisfying. That one works.
It may not have been heartfelt, but it's quite pleasing to hear.
I really do think so.
Think what?
We're each other's true love.
Each other's.
Help me keep tabs on Mi Na and Chen Xiu Feng.
I'm not kidding.
I have an ominous feeling this is a big conspiracy.
- Is it? - It's intuition.
We'll wait and see.
It's precisely because we have a strategic partnership with Te Hui
with mutual trust
that we haven't issued an ultimatum.
We have received your reply and am currently making individual analyses.
No need for analysis.
I'll simplify things.
Of the three candidates, we have set our mind on the one named Chen.
We have passed on the other two.
Good. That makes things simple.
I will focus on securing Chen.
Rest assured. You will be satisfied with the outcome.
I look forward to it.
Since you two chairmen are here today, I'd like to give you a reminder.
We don't have a strategic partnership only with Te Hui.
There are people lined up outside Hong Shen
ready to swoop in and take your place.
I'd like to give you a kind reminder we have a contract in effect.
There are terms to the contract.
There is an allotted time to these terms.
How can you speak like this when the deadline has not been reached?
I'm pleased you mentioned the deadline.
We'll be waiting for that day to come.
Goodbye.
The executive director emailed to say
he has confidence in you and will wait for results.
Your case is Te Hui's biggest case of the year in the Greater China region.
I've also looked into Chen Xiu Feng.
He is indeed the ideal candidate for foreign private equity investment.
A child?
Are you pregnant?
Why are you looking at me?
Are you going to raise the child yourselves?
She'll be staying for good this time.
I envy you so much, Sister!
Why do you need to be envious?
If you act quickly and have the deed done with all none the wiser
maybe you might even beat me in this race.
Right, Qiu Dong?
Lin Bai, dark soy sauce shouldn't be added to this dish.
It's heavy on color.
It's heavily favoring lovers over friends. It's what I'm good at.
Did you just say that in front of your wife? You're very gutsy.
She knows she's the only one in my eyes.
Good enough.
Who would've thought he would have such dispirited times?
Those in finance are the most realistic.
He has the rare chance to feel emotion like a poet does.
This is only temporary.
After his father passes away, he will return to the world of economics.
Will he be like a story of a legend
with his wings clipped and powers crippled?
Let me set your mind at ease.
Despite being in this state
he and his partner are still managing a wine private equity fund.
The fund is on the scope of 1.3 billion yuan.
Last year's economy can't be considered good
but he still saw a 14 percent return.
A moneymaking genius.
Mi Na admitted they're together?
She's holding back, but yes.
I'm afraid it is a honey trap Yuan Kun set.
He and Mi Na have been mysterious lately.
Yuan Kun is under a lot of pressure.
Toby and Emma, his other two researchers, have been sent out of town for training.
Honey trap?
Seduction?
It sounds like a spy game.
If this turns out to be true, it would be so despicable.
It sounds exaggerated.
It's not impossible.
Why are you telling me this?
Yuan Kun and I are on the same side.
You two are in the same company.
It's not like you're family.
Don't tell me you want to fish for information about them through me.
I don't dare to get my hopes up.
But if I can, all the better.
Even if it can be proved Yuan Kun told the temptress to seduce Chen Xiu Feng
they've already hooked up.
Does that mean Yuan Kun will definitely be able to have Chen Xiu Feng?
Not necessarily so.
Anyhow, even if Yuan Kun secures Chen Xiu Feng
nobody will know what happened behind closed doors.
Just by looking at the outcome
it would still be the most successful case in the industry.
Who knows what happens behind the scenes of success?
But if it's confirmed Yuan Kun used a woman as bait
I can't just stand by and watch.
I am involved in this.
He played you.
You feel aggrieved?
But what can you do?
I'm going to throw a wrench in the works.
