[Episode 3]
What are you being so mysterious for?
This is the situation.
I saw the building has another unit upstairs.
The configuration, structure, and orientation
are the exact same as the one you want.
It's just a bit bigger and a bit more expensive.
One room.
The manager said if we settle on it, he can give us an extra discount.
What happened to the one I wanted?
I'm telling you there's another one that's even better.
The one you wanted was stolen by someone else.
Honey, don't be like this. The two are practically identical.
This new one is just a little bigger than the one from before.
Bigger is better. Didn't you want to have friends over?
They'll all fit even standing in a row.
It's just a little more expensive.
That's not important. My wife likes it. Cost is no issue, then.
The only downside is that the windows are a little smaller.
That's not a complete flaw though.
There are so many perverts who have super telephoto lenses. How amoral.
Honey, don't be like this. I know I didn't do what you wanted me to do.
You can hit me. Don't be mad at me. Don't ignore me.
Ding Ren Jian, when have you ever done something right?
I heard you lost your job too.
Another company wants to hire me.
I'm still considering whether or not I should accept.
You're still considering?
Then hurry up and decide.
It's not that I haven't looked at the unit with smaller windows.
Of course I like it.
But we don't have enough money.
Just the down payment is an extra 200,000 yuan. Do you have that?
I can get it, I think.
I'll have my dad pay that.
Your dad?
All right, your dad will pay the extra 200,000 yuan.
You'll pay the monthly payment.
That's settled then. Are you okay with that?
No, no, don't.
I'll make my dad pay the down payment!
I'll pay the monthly payments.
- We owe it to you. - Okay.
I'll trust you one last time.
Ding Ren Jian, don't disappoint me again.
So, my Human Resources manager will wait here for you for 24 hours.
He won't wait any longer.
Let him play me, then.
Morning.
What's your name?
- Zhai. - Good morning, CEO Zhai.
CEO Zhai, is yesterday's offer still on the table?
You said you'd give me 24 hours to consider.
You weren't messing with me, were you?
Hey.
Do you want me or not? Can you say something?
I really don't understand you young kids.
Come on. I'll show you around the office.
Hello, CEO Zhai.
- Morning, CEO Zhai. - Every time, you lose!
Who brought their kid to work?
I can't win.
Thanks, Boss.
Okay, the tour's over. Any questions?
I have three questions.
Okay. Employees with questions are good employees.
The first question. Why do you want to hire me?
Good question.
I like to play games in hard mode.
I also like to collect antiques.
Second question.
Second question. Does our company allow employees to bring their kids?
Bring kids to work?
- Because I have a kid-- - Good question.
He is our special consultant.
He began making programs for Blizzard, Microsoft, and Apple at the age of eight.
Eight...
Third question.
The third question... Do you have work for me today?
If possible, can you start counting my wages starting today?
Sure, no problem.
I have three tasks for you.
First, make a cup of hot chocolate for our special consultant.
Extra milk and sugar.
Second, pick up my suit jacket.
You can ask my secretary for the location of the dry cleaner.
Lastly, book a restaurant for me for tomorrow.
The room has to be big enough for 20 people.
I'm inviting my high school classmates to dinner.
You can decide the style and cuisine. I hope you can surprise me.
- Understand? - Understood.
Wait. Didn't I apply to be a programmer?
Why am I doing these things?
Ding Ren Jian, this is your business card.
You are the boss's personal assistant
mainly in charge of managing the office's and his life's...
various odds and ends.
I'm the Human Resources director, Qi Qi. I'm mainly in charge of hiring.
I'm Kitty, a clerk, mainly in charge of filing and documentation.
I'm the boss's secretary, Zhen Zhen.
I'm in charge of making coffee and tea for the boss.
Oh, and peeling nuts for him to replenish his energy jar.
However, she's not in charge of beverages for clients.
You'll be in charge of that from now on.
Actually, you don't have many duties.
The boss will arrange some odds and ends for you sometimes.
As for the rest of the time...
- Oh, right. There's a tree on his desk. - A tree?
It's a money tree. You'll take care of it from now on.
Remember to water it once every Tuesday.
Water the amount of 1.5 bottles of a 1.5 liter bottle. Water thoroughly.
Rotate it once a week, 90 degrees clockwise.
- Don't rotate the wrong way. - Got it?
Good luck!
So I'm an assistant?
Good luck?
- Here. - Oh, just this one? Thanks.
Take care.
What kind of food do you have?
Oh, you have everything?
Yes. A 20-person room for tomorrow night.
You don't have it? Okay. Thanks.
It does feel different.
Hello, Shu Fen.
I want to reserve a 20-person private room for tomorrow.
No room available?
Okay. Thank you.
You win!
Yes, I passed!
Hi.
- What's up? - Nothing.
- What are you hiding? - I'm not hiding anything.
Why are you being sneaky in CEO Zhai's office?
- I'm working. - Let me see!
You...
You broke off a leaf from CEO Zhai's money tree.
Ding Ren Jian, you're dead meat.
What were you doing?
Look, all you do is play games! Oh no, this is bad!
You just wait and see how CEO Zhai will deal with you.
- You're done for. - You're done for.
What's the big deal? It's just a damn leaf.
I'm going to play games!
You use too much slang.
I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe.
The patient needs to rest. Don't make her too excited.
Okay, I know.
Breathe, breathe.
Son, I heard you have a girlfriend.
I've always had one.
Your dad told me she works at our company.
Why is Dad such a gossip, telling you everything?
Of course. I don't care about anything else but this.
All right.
Son, tell me.
How old is this woman?
Where is she from? What does she do at our company?
- How long have you been together? - Stop, Mom.
You're interrogating a talented young millennial.
You're outdated.
Look, you're not even in any hurry.
You're not, but I am.
With my health, I'm counting down my days.
I only hope you can get married and have children soon.
Then I'll be able to leave in peace.
Mom, should I bow to you? Or maybe kowtow?
Why are you bringing this up again?
Hasn't your illness stabilized now?
Can you not tug at my heartstrings like Chiung Yao? (author)
If you find me annoying, then bring your girlfriend to visit me.
Then I'll stop bothering you.
You said so. Anybody will do?
Wait, no. She can't be a foreigner.
Mom.
She can't be a rich family's daughter. They're spoiled and can't do anything.
- You'll be the one tired out. - Mom.
She can't be too fat or else she won't match with you.
She can't be too skinny either or else she'll have a hard time having kids.
She can't be too pretty or else that's like inviting trouble.
She can't be too ugly or else the DNA of my grandchildren will be ruined.
I won't accept that.
Mom, are you done?
Most importantly, she needs to have a good temper.
Look at your terrible temper.
I just hope she can be the type who is meek and docile.
Mom, are you done now?
I'm done.
I'll bring someone over in two days who fits all your demands.
Really? You're not lying to me?
If I'm lying, I'll be a monk for life.
What are you saying? Knock on that wood.
Why would you be a monk?
If my son becomes a monk, all the women in the world would cry.
Son, it's a deal.
The train is taking off.
- Mom, you're back? - I'm back.
Dad, I brought some walnut milk. Here. It's good for your memory and health..
- That's so much trouble for you. - Not at all.
- Dad, do you have time tonight? - I do.
I have something I want to talk to you about.
What is it? Just say it now.
Are you back, Honey? Dinner will be ready in a minute.
Man Yi, come help.
We'll talk later.
Get ready for dinner!
Just missing a propeller.
I have an announcement. My place of work will be changing starting today.
My previous place wasn't bad, but there was no room for advancement.
The new place isn't great, but they need me.
I originally didn't want to go.
My previous place was nice, not busy or exhausting.
I don't know where my new company found out about me.
They kept coming to me and saying
"Come work for us! We're a new company"
"but we need an experienced and competent man like you."
It was hard to refuse, so I went.
When I arrived, all the executives put down their work and came to me.
I just let them talk.
It felt a bit embarrassing.
Yes, I have experience, but don't sell it like that.
I scolded the boss and told him not to speak so highly of me.
It could get to my head.
How much is your salary?
Salary... Today was the first day. I forgot to ask.
I'll ask my secretary tomorrow.
- Dad, you even have a secretary? - Of course.
Is she more beautiful than my mom?
Your mother is the world's most beautiful woman.
Ask how much your salary is tomorrow.
And ask about a year-end bonus. That's very important.
I got it.
Is money that important?
A man should look at two things in his career.
The first is whether he's passionate about his job
and whether it's something he wants to do.
The second is whether he can contribute to
the country, the people, and this society.
Always placing such importance on money is a shortsighted view.
Dad, that's not what Lin Yue meant. Eat vegetables.
That is exactly what I meant.
I do like money.
Ding Ren Jian, have you told your dad about the apartment?
- I... - You can say it now then.
What apartment? What is there to talk about?
I'm done eating. I'm going to do homework.
This drink is mine.
I'm done eating too.
Ren Jian, come to my room.
I'm going in.
Dad, I was about to tell you.
Man Yi is not young anymore.
Isn't it not that appropriate to keep living in the same room as you?
So, I'm thinking...
The two of us are living perfectly fine in this room.
Don't worry about it.
I just want to talk about moving.
You want to move?
What are you thinking?
How much money do you have?
How much can the two of you earn in a month?
How much do houses cost now?
Moreover, Man Yi will be going to middle school in a few years.
Have you thought about
which school he'll go to and how much it'll cost?
I have. It's not much.
You just need to give us 200,000 yuan.
You still need to ask me for money!
Fine, fine. Go out.
Dad! Mr. Ding.
Your grandson is here. Watch your attitude.
If your son weren't here, I'd have hit you already!
You're a man, being egged on by your wife to sell my house.
Don't you feel ashamed?
Man Yi, go play outside.
Dad needs to speak to Grandpa.
Dad, this has nothing to do with Lin Yue. It's my idea.
Can't I buy a house?
Do I not have the right to pursue a new life?
Think about it.
I work from early morning to late night.
I work like a dog and bottle up all my grievances.
I really wish I could come home and take a hot bath in a spacious bathtub.
But in reality, I can only use our leaky showerhead
and make do with taking a shower that has no hot water in the winter.
And what's that you said?
Taking cold showers is good for your health.
I really want to call the Chinese Academy of Sciences
and ask if there's any scientific evidence to back that.
And we used to have a lot of friends.
But we're drifting further apart.
Why is that?
When we get together, it's always at someone's house.
But every time it's my turn, I say it's inconvenient.
Why is that?
With our living room
we have to make arrangements just to fit six people.
It doesn't matter if we don't have gatherings at home.
Does it matter if we don't have friends?
It won't kill me to not have friends. Is it worthwhile to live this way?
Dad, I'm a man.
Is it wrong that I want to give my wife a bigger and brighter room
and give you a more comfortable place to live the rest of your years?
Shouldn't you put in an investment
for your son's ambitions that haven't been extinguished yet?
- Are you done? - Yes.
- Go play outside. - Wait.
- Dad, you're-- - Go play outside.
Go play outside.
Did you finish talking to your dad?
How did it go?
There isn't a major issue with principles.
What does that mean?
Is there an issue or not?
There's no problem.
Pay attention in class.
Drink this during lunch.
- Got it? - Got it, Dad.
- Okay, go in. Bye. - Bye.
- Good morning, Miss. - Good morning.
For my wife, for my child, for my most miserly father.
For a happy life! Got it!
I know. I'll get someone to handle it.
I can't.
I'm still in a meeting.
Boss, you wanted to see me?
Have you booked a restaurant?
Yes, a room for 20. Minimum purchase is 10,000 yuan.
I also told the restaurant you'll bring your own wine.
It'll be fusion cuisine.
There's everything from Manchurian hot pot to Japanese sashimi.
I also spoke with a Xinjiang skewers shop near the restaurant.
If you end up drinking a lot, you might buy a couple hundred skewers.
Boss, there's usually drinking at classmate reunions.
Drinking is bad for the stomach.
I went out just to buy yogurt for you.
Drink yogurt before drinking alcohol. It'll be better for the stomach.
Boss, have a try.
There are no preservatives.
It seems you've seriously put some thought into this, uncle.
Of course. I take my job seriously.
It's a bit different from what I expected
but since I'm here, I'll do a good job.
I'll strive to be a nail of New Power. I'll nail whatever you need me to do.
Consider the yogurt my treat. No need to claim it from the company.
Pretty good attitude. It's just that your wording is a bit old.
Wording? I have a large capacity for vocabulary. I can adjust.
Boss, is there anything else?
I have one more thing for you to do.
Buy a present that's respectable and generous. Figure it out yourself.
Is it for a man or a woman?
Is something wrong with your brain? Why would I give a gift to a man?
Girlfriend?
Not yet. Soon.
Send it to this address. It's to this person.
You can look her up online.
[An Qing Huan]
But--
I told you I don't pay you 10,000 yuan a month for you to tell me "but."
10,000 yuan a month?
10,000 yuan during probation. 15,000 yuan when you're official.
Problem?
No problem. Absolutely no problem.
This is personal business. No need to claim it with the company.
Special purpose funds. As long as she says she likes it, price is no issue.
The remainder will be yours.
Boss, I didn't hear the last part clearly.
Can you say it again?
I said buy a present to make this woman happy.
What you buy is up to you.
Bring out all the tricks you used to win your wife.
The remainder is your reward money. Get it?
Understood.
Don't worry. The mission will be accomplished.
Oh my gosh!
As long as she's satisfied, the rest is mine.
That's the logic, right?
Transaction complete. Please take your card.
That should be the logic.
Why aren't you at work today?
Who approved your time off?
If you're not here, who'll make my morning coffee?
Where did you say you are?
[Resignation Letter]
Is upstairs cleaned up? It should be tidied up.
And take a look at downstairs too.
You two go take care of it.
Xiao An, what do you think?
Is there a big difference from what you imagined?
It's much bigger and better than what I had imagined.
You can decide the decor and budget.
I hope you can give me a complete proposal as soon as you can.
I'll give you a budget in three days.
Three days is too soon. Don't rush it.
After all, this is important for Zhen Corporation.
You must be cautious.
I am very cautious.
I've thought about it for eight months
ever since the first day I came onto this project.
I gave you this project, so I trust you.
I'll be waiting for your proposal.
Before, go to Human Resources and get the transfer paperwork done quickly.
Chairman Zhai, about Vice President Qin that day...
In business, there are no gods or beasts. We're all human.
It's better to make friends than foes.
Would you like to have lunch with me?
Thank you, Chairman Zhai, but I really like this place.
Can I stay here for a while?
- Okay, I'm leaving, then. - Bye.
We did it! This is ours now.
Hello?
Did you cry?
Force your tears back in. Don't embarrass yourself.
When is the classmate reunion? Let's go together.
Okay, bye.
Honey, are you free to talk?
Go ahead.
I have something to ask you.
What kind of gift from a man would make a woman the happiest?
A house.
No, listen to the situation first.
The man and woman aren't a couple yet.
Which of my gifts way back when made you the happiest?
A house.
Oh, stop it.
When we first got together, I gave you a popsicle and you melted for me.
When did you get so materialistic?
It's because I wasn't materialistic back then, so I am now.
Ding Ren Jian, what's wrong with you?
If you have money, don't think about buying some present.
Put down your 200,000 yuan
and I'd melt for you any time.
200,000 yuan, 200,000 yuan, that's all I'm thinking about now!
I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you!
Hello?
What kind of attitude is that?
Aside from a house, what else do women like?
It's time to install this now.
Hello?
Dad, I don't have time to waste. I have something to ask.
Back then, when you were with my mom
is there any gift that was rather expensive and made her very happy?
Do you even have to ask? It was you, of course!
Thank you. Goodbye.
I can't depend on anybody. I'll have to depend on myself.
What gift would seem sincere to a woman?
Hello, welcome to I Do.
Is there anything I can introduce to you?
I'm just looking to buy a gift.
If you want to buy a gift, you can look at our diamond rings.
It's very appropriate
whether it is a present, for a confession, or proposal.
Okay, tell me about them.
We have an anniversary line right now.
I can go into detail.
- Is it for your girlfriend or wife? - Neither.
So it's for a confession?
I don't know if it's a confession.
Sir, you're really humorous.
Do you know what the woman likes?
She is a woman who thinks highly of herself.
Is there a ring for a woman like that?
This "I Do" tower ring series.
In the beginning of the last century
with his profound love and memory of his wife
Eiffel decided to construct an iron tower in remembrance of his love.
This series is based off of the shape of the Eiffel Tower.
It perfectly represents the loyalty of lovers.
Wow, that is such a touching story.
Two carats?
This... is outside of my budget.
Is there anything smaller?
Not bad, not bad.
Is there anything smaller?
This sparkles quite a lot even though it's a bit small.
You must have something even smaller.
This is 0.50 carats. It is the smallest in this series.
However, I'm sure there is no price to your love.
"There is no price to love." Very well said!
The size of the diamond has nothing to do with love, right?
You must have something smaller, right?
I'm sorry, sir. This is already the smallest in our series.
Looks like there is a bottom line to love.
It still needs to be bright and shiny.
Okay, that's the one, then. I'll have it. Wrap it up.
Charge the card.
Hello?
Still thinking of buying a gift?
No.
Let me tell you something.
Someone is putting down a down payment on the house you liked.
Tell them to step to the side. That's our house!
Stop going on about that. They're coming in tomorrow to pay.
Tomorrow? What time tomorrow? I'll pay five minutes before they do!
Ding Ren Jian, I'm being serious here.
Where are you going to get 200,000 yuan?
Why can't I have 200,000 yuan?
I have such a high position at such a big company. Can't I get advance pay?
Are you sure they spent 200,000 yuan to hire you as vice chairman?
You're that competent?
Why can't I be?
Think about how many years I supervised Building 6.
That building had 200 people, twice as many as my current company.
I can manage a building full of people.
You think I can't manage a tiny company?
Don't worry. Just think about what you promised me.
I still don't believe you.
If what you're saying is true, then bring your money and show me.
I have important business to attend to. I really can't come.
I'll show you the card tonight, okay?
- Are you serious? - I'm serious.
I'll show you my card. What will you show me?
Annoying. I'm hanging up now.
Miss, we're taking this house. I'll come pay the down payment tomorrow.
Congratulations, Ms. Lin.
Thank you, thank you.
I don't agree. She is mine.
Sorry, I've already resigned.
I haven't approved your resignation yet.
I did.
Chairman Zhai, you know I have a pile of things for her to deal with.
It won't be difficult to find a young girl to buy your breakfast
deliver your dry cleaning, and make appointments for facials.
Still, you can't make her manager of a flagship store.
Is she capable? She's only been with the corporation for three years.
None of our employees who have worked 10 years with us are like her
having done all low-level odd jobs
and have followed you and are familiar with the way all the executives work.
Besides, isn't the concept of our flagship store
a restaurant geared toward young people?
I think she is the best candidate.
Regardless of what you say, I don't approve.
And I have the right to disapprove.
My husband has transferred all his shares to my name.
Just like you, I have the authority to make decisions.
The transfer of shares agreement hasn’t been signed yet, has it?
Xiao An, our contract has been signed.
The contract is effective immediately.
Thank you, Chairman Zhai.
An Qing Huan!
Please remove your hand.
Qing Huan, don't you remember how I helped you in the past?
The past two years of being ordered around by you
and days of being treated worse than a servant are finally over.
Fine, you gained wings now, have you?
You've decided to go your separate way?
I'd like to see how long you'll last as the flagship store manager.
Remember this.
As long as I am here, don't even dream of having any good days.
No matter how bad they are, they'll still be better than before.
Hi, I'd like to see An Qing Huan, Assistant An.
She's no longer an assistant. She's now Manager An.
Manager An? She was promoted? She must be in a good mood.
I'd like to see her.
- Do you have an appointment? - No.
Manager An was just promoted. Her schedule is full of meetings.
You should come again with an appointment.
No, my business is simple. I'll be done in 10 minutes.
Help me notify her.
I really can't without an appointment.
Just help me out. I must see her today.
This must be done today. It'll be too late tomorrow.
I'm really sorry. I can't help you without an appointment.
I'm really sorry.
- Please make an exception. - Ding Ren Jian.
Manager An!
See? I told you we know each other. We're old acquaintances.
Sir, would you like tea or coffee?
- Water is fine. - Please wait.
You even have a personal secretary? Way to go.
Did you come because you still can't let go of that house?
I'm not a sore loser.
I'm buying an even bigger unit upstairs from you.
So you came today to brag?
Do I have that much time on my hands?
I came to give you a present.
I stole your house and you're giving me a present?
It's not from me. It's from my boss.
Who is your boss?
Zhai Zhi Wei, CEO of New Power. You know him, right?
Oh, him?
Why?
Manager An, don't make me explain everything.
Why else? Because he likes you!
Congratulations.
Aren't you a little excited?
Don't you want to open this?
Don't you want to know what present he's giving you?
Guess what this is.
Ring.
Wow! How did you get such a difficult guess?
You two are so compatible.
Are you blinded by love's radiance?
Is there anything else you need to do?
I only have to deliver the ring today. I don't have anything else to do.
You can leave, then.
No, don't. You didn't say you accept the gift. How can I leave?
What are you doing?
What do you mean by this?
Front desk, this is Manager An. Send security in here.
- Right now. - Why are you calling security?
Can't we just talk this out?
Please leave with your ring.
How could you be like this? Aren't you happy someone likes you?
I've never seen someone unhappy to be given a ring.
- I don't believe you. - You'd best believe it.
Why should I be happy?
Look at how beautiful and expensive this ring is!
Wear it first before saying you don't like it.
- Wear it. What if you like it? - What are you doing?
There's no chance I'll like it! Let go!
Ever since the first day I met you, I've noticed
you're an inconsiderate and immature woman!
I'm going to pull out all the stops today and put this ring on your finger!
Get him out of here.
Sir, please leave with us.
No, don't touch me. I'll leave on my own.
Wait. Come back.
This. Take your ring with you and leave!
Fate is predestined.
If you can't take it off, just leave it. It's for you anyway.
No, I'm definitely taking it off and returning it to you.
Why bother? You can't take it off and I can't return it anyway.
I'm counting this gift as accepted.
Are you insane? I'll take it off and return it to you.
Get out of here for now.
Bye bye.
- Did you complete the task I gave you? - Yes.
Classmate reunion, 7:30 p.m. tonight. I reported this to you before.
- I'm talking about that other thing. - What thing?
That thing.
- It's done. - Did she like it?
Yes, she couldn't take her hands off it.
You sure have a few tricks.
Look again. It's not just a few.
You used all the money?
Good.
Honey, I'll come pick you up from work.
What? Classmate reunion?
I'd forgotten. No problem, I'll definitely go.
Okay, see you later.
Ding Ren Jian, how can you be so awesome?
Young Mistress An, what is going on?
You've had so much time and you're still not done?
I've been trying to pick for over half an hour.
Help me see which outfit I should wear.
It's just a classmate reunion. Do you have to dress up so formally?
Li Dong Ye, it's okay if other people don't understand. But how could you not?
I get it. Of course I do.
It's been so long since you've seen everybody.
You can finally show up in front of him in glory.
Of course you'll have to package yourself like a goddess out for revenge.
Stop there. I said you can talk, but I didn't say you can mention that person.
I'll shut up now.
Come on. Which one should I wear?
Let me help you pick.
That one's not good. It's seriously too tight.
This one's not bad!
You bought this during the VIP sale, right?
New style this year and an international brand. This is it.
You'll definitely be the star of the show. It's true.
And all men like white.
- Virgin complex. - Really?
- Yes. - Virgin complex?

Hurry up and get changed.
Let's all drink!
An Qing Huan, how long has it been? It must have been 10 years, right?
Exactly. You haven't come to any classmate reunions.
Honestly, if I ran into you on the street
I really wouldn't recognize you.
Who could? Look at her tiny face and her stylish outfit.
Ding Ren Jian!
Let me steal your wife.
Go ahead, take her.
Ding Ren Jian, why are you so late?
I was held up at a meeting.
Come, sit.
What have you been so busy with lately?
Have you expanded to the Far East yet?
Those crappy Silicon Valley projects?
The American economy isn't exactly flourishing.
There's not much point.
Bragging, are you? Silicon Valley? You sure can brag.
I heard you jumped ship from your original company.
What great company are you working at now?
A junior came begging me repeatedly. I really couldn't refuse him.
I heard this company was just established last year. Tell us about it.
How many shares can we get?
Money strains relationships. I'm just helping out a friend.
So should we be calling you Chairman Ding now?
Just call me Ding, like usual.
- Calling him Ding makes us more chummy. - Yes, chummy.
Come! A toast to our reunion after so long!
I'll drink first!
Qing Huan.
She downed it in one gulp?
Come on! What are you all waiting for?
- Let's drink! - Come on!
- Here. - Cheers, everyone.
Bottoms up.
Chairman Tang is here!
- Sorry, I'm late. - Chairman Tang!
It's been so long. You all look skinnier.
Lin Yue, your old lover has arrived! Do you want to talk to him?
What are you saying? My husband is over there.
- Are you guys serious? - But it's true.
It's been so many years. You're still bringing it up?
Tang Xiao Gang and I have nothing to do with each other.
Then introduce him to me.
I'm single too. Give him to me.
If you're sincere, introduce us right now.
Oh, quit it.
Ding, let's have a drink.
Is your husband angry?
We have so many classmates. Who booked this place?
How can we fit in such a small room?
It was Luo.
People don't RSVP but suddenly show up. We should ban them from now on.
They should foot the bill tonight.
Is there a bigger room? We can just move.
Tang! There is a bigger room. However, we couldn't reserve it.
- Who reserved it? - It's so in demand?
What do you say, Tang? Where should we go?
Why don't you come to my clubhouse?
- Okay! - Let's go, then.
Ding, I've invited you and Lin Yue to my place several times now.
Well? Why don't you all come along?
Why don't we go check out Tang's place?
I have a suggestion.
Let's not go anywhere tonight. We'll stay here.
What are we having tonight? A classmate reunion.
What is the goal of a classmate reunion?
Mutual benefits.
To put it plainly, no showing off, no flaunting wealth
no PDA, no talk about children.
Only talk about the good old days. Right, Tang?
- Get down first. - I'm not done yet.
Yes, Ding is right.
Ding, don't be so unreasonable.
- What did you say? - Calm down.
- Ding, calm down! - What are you doing?
It's just a joke!
Everyone will have more fun in a bigger room? There is one!
Get the waiter. Waiter!
Hello, Sir. What do you need?
Move us to your bigger room.
I'm sorry, Sir. Our big room has already been reserved.
Check if it's been booked by the number ending in 8863, Ding Ren Jian, Mr. Ding.
The deposit has already been paid.
You are Mr. Ding?
Sorry, Mr. Ding. We made a mistake.
I'm sorry. Please follow me.
Let's move. Honey, get my bag.
He had that hiding up his sleeve?
Ding Ren Jian! What is going on?
Mr. Ding, this way.
Please enter.
Zhi Wei, what kind of crap place is this?
There must be a mistake.
I'm sorry, we've made a mistake. Let me check what's going on.
When did you reserve this room?
I knew Luo is unreliable so I had a backup.
A reservation is fine but why'd you have to brag and say you'll foot the bill?
You're happy.
Didn't you say you were unhappy you couldn't have friends over at home?
I'm making you happy. Your smile is worth every cent.
Chairman Tang, same as usual. Order some food for us.
No, no. Ding booked the room. He gets to call the shots today.
Chairman Ding, then...
We don't go out to eat often. We don't know what to order.
You should order.
Honey, why are you being so modest with our old classmates?
We don't need to know how to order.
- Waiter! - Coming!
Hello.
We don't want any appetizers or sides.
Everything else, bring one of each.
We're watching our health nowadays. We can't eat such heavy foods.
Okay.
Let me see.
Tang, sorry for stealing your spotlight.
Not at all. Ding is the one in charge today. So long as you're happy.
- Can't you take it easy? - No.
Why?
It's just that the one you want to see hasn't come. Do you have to be like this?
Zhu Gan, it's okay if others don't know.
But you know how I survived over the years.
Come on. Is there anything I don't know about you?
If you two get back together, what then?
That bastard ran off with a rich woman.
I'm furious.
After you two broke up, why did you work hard and throw yourself into work?
Isn't it just so you can become better and make him regret it?
Have I accomplished it?
Definitely. You're a beautiful woman that is loved by everyone.
And you have a successful career.
If he were to come today and looks you in the eye...
No, he doesn't even need to look you in the eye.
He'd just need to take a glimpse...
and his eyes would be blinded.
He'd be regretting the shit out of it.
But he didn't even show up.
How do you know he didn't?
Maybe he did come
came to the door, saw you, and left out of embarrassment.
Or, maybe he found his conscience.
He found his conscience?
Okay, okay.
Is that scumbag worth it?
Get over it.
I've worked so hard all these years.
I worked in the day and worked in the night.
What did I do that for?
I did it so I could make a name for myself. For this day!
In the end, he doesn't show up! Why! Why?
You can't get over this?
Classmates, who knows where our class leader is at this very moment?
- You guys don't know? - I don't either.
He's gone to Budapest.
He's getting married with a foreigner.
She's also in the restaurant industry, a wealthy woman.
Look, he even sent pictures. Here.
No, no, don't.
Here, here.
Qing Huan? Qing Huan? Qing Huan!
Qing Huan!
Chairman Ding, you're impressive!
Let me get this call.
Boss, are you looking for me?
What are you doing?
Where's that room you say is as classy as the Forbidden City
with food and entertainment?
Boss, I made some adjustments.
I was thinking you only have 10 people.
Isn't booking such a big room a bit of a waste?
You think? Who cares what you think?
Are you the boss or am I?
Yes, you're the boss.
You have 10 minutes to appear in front of me.
Otherwise, you don't need to come in tomorrow! You can piss off!
You can't even understand something so simple?
Handle it yourself!
Way to go, Chairman Ding.
I can't even have a peaceful dinner. The office stops running without me.
Who knew?
He's not the Ding we knew.
What the hell is wrong with you? You dropped my phone!
Sis?
Why are you being so fierce?
Haven't your parents taught you to speak nicely to women?
You knocked my phone onto the floor.
Oh, it's true. It's broken.
How can it be shattered so badly?
How could you be so careless?
I'm careless? You're the one who knocked it to the floor!
I did it. I'm sorry.
So... So what now?
What now? Pay for it!
This is a birthday present my mom gave me! A birthday present!
It's just a stupid phone! What are you shouting for?
I'll just pay!
Yours is old! I don't want it!
Your phone is old too.
Women are just trouble.
Who are you saying?
You can understand?
I dare you to say it to me again.
How dare you have that attitude with me?
Who do you think you are?
I am God!
Are you a psycho?
Are you an idiot?
I'm going to kill you.
What?
I'll kill you, kill you!
We're getting drunk tonight!
Nothing's the same as before!
If there's not enough food or drinks, order more.
We're no longer the same as before.
- Come, let's drink! - Here!
Drink this to sober up.
Thank you.
This is humiliating to the extreme.
Don't blame him. He's not having an easy time.
After all, he just lost his job.
He probably isn't satisfied with his new job either.
He told me he's the vice chairman at the new company.
Are you sure? I heard he's assistant to a new and young CEO.
Besides, you two are looking into buying a house. He's under a lot of pressure.
See? He knows we're buying a house.
He still wants to show off by paying the bill.
I've really had enough.
I've already paid the bill. Don't worry.
What? That won't do. I have to pay you back.
No, don't.
Why are you being so courteous? We're no strangers.
Still, you can't keep letting him have his way.
Look at him.
He's quite happy.
Ding, wake up. Time to go.
Let's keep drinking.
More drinking? Go home.
Where's my wife?
Your wife left a long time ago.
- Who did she leave with? - With Chairman Tang.
- All right, let's leave too. - Come on.
Waiter, bring the check!
Check? Tang already paid.
Who let Tang pay?
There's still so much food left! Pack it up! What a waste!
Immature.
What should I look at?
Low-class.
Gaudy.
Son, come open the door for me. Quick.
Mom said nobody is to open the door for you.
I don't want to defy her orders.
She's just playing around. Hurry up.
I have a lot of tasty food. Hurry and open the door.
Dad, just sleep elsewhere for the night.
If I open the door for you, I'll be guaranteed to have a tough time.
You didn't see the look on Mom's face when she came home.
Even Grandpa was so scared that he went into his room.
I can't talk anymore. Bye.
What? What's this for?
What's the meaning of this?
Dad, the yogurt is for you.
You can have a nutritious breakfast tomorrow.
Dad, that's all I can do for you. I can't talk anymore. Bye.
Hey!
How are you feeling? Better? Still want to vomit?
Zhu Gan, I'm never drinking again.
I'm telling you, I'm going to quit drinking.
Starting now. Right now.
Quit drinking? I've heard you say that thousands of times.
Zhu Gan, why do you think I can't find any good men?
What do you mean by that? Aren't I a good man?
You're a girlfriend. You don't count.
Fine, fine. Girlfriend.
Go to sleep after drinking the honey water. Don't think so much.
Okay.
My head hurts so much. I'm going to sleep.
Okay.
- Hand me my phone. - Okay.
Oh no, this is bad!
What?
I... I left my phone with that guy!
Which guy?
That Zhai Zhi Wei!
Why would you phone be with him?
I drank too much today!
So, I ran out to the restroom and encountered him in the hallway.
Forget it. It's a long story.
Call my phone.
Tell him to return my phone to me.
Agree to any terms he proposes.
Okay.
Hello, I am An Qing Huan's friend.
Okay, bye.
Why did the call end so quickly?
Is he returning it?
He will return it
but he's requesting you pick it up in person at his office tomorrow.
I knew it!
I knew he's a bad person!
Zhu Gan, give me a knife right now! I'm going to kill him!
How am I going to sleep now? It's the end of the world!
Just give me a bottle of wine.
Okay, I'll open a bottle of wine.
What?
See you tomorrow at 9 a.m. at the real estate office.
Love, your husband.
So escorted Lin Yue home?
I wanted to but she wouldn't let me. She took a cab home.
You paid the bill?
I said I'd pay.
I'll pay you tomorrow.
Okay.
Actually, in a few days.
I have to pay the down payment for the house tomorrow.
Okay.
Help me set an alarm for 8 a.m.
I'm meeting Lin Yue at 9 a.m. tomorrow
to pay the down payment at the real estate office.
Do you smell the scent of love?
I'm going to find the prettiest girl in here!
We'll walk you home.
What do you guys want?
Beautiful ladies, look at how sincere we are.
What do we want? We just want your numbers.
Which of you wants my number?
Me.
I don't have a phone.
The dorm phone number is fine too.
Sorry, our dorm room doesn't have a landline.
- Email? - No email either.
- Enough, stop bothering her. - Let's go.
QQ account. I don't believe you don't have a QQ account either.
Didn't she say she rarely logs in to QQ?
It's probably a fake address.
I'll know after I try.
Are you Lin Yue?
Yes. Which one are you from the dance today?
The one you will fall in love with.
You're still sleeping? Listen!
Lin Yue agreed to be my girlfriend!
- Come on. - I have a question for you.
If we like the same girl at the same time
what would you do?
Are you an idiot? She's not right for you. Give up.
8:45 a.m.?
Why didn't Tang set an alarm for me?
Sorry, I originally made an appointment to pay a down payment today.
However, because of an emergency
my husband might not be able to make it here.
Aren't you Ms. Lin?
I think your husband already paid.
Yes, look. Isn't he here already?
Tang? You paid?
We have such a close relationship. It doesn't matter who pays.
This is definitely not the same! If it were a meal, it would be fine.
It's not so embarrassing for us to freeload off you for food and drinks
but this is our family matter.
How can you pay for us?
What use is Ding Ren Jian my husband for?
No, this won't do. I firmly refuse.
Miss, return this man's money to him.
He's not your husband?
Unfortunately, the money has been deposited into our account.
- If I'm to-- - Miss, it's okay.
- Tang! - Don't make her job difficult.
It's just 200,000 yuan.
To be honest, Ding Ren Jian spent the night at my office.
It makes me uncomfortable that you two are fighting over this bit of money.
Did he beg you?
He asked you for money, didn't he?
This... This isn't a matter of money.
How is it not about money?
Honey, I'm here!
How come you're here?
I told you to wake me! Why didn't you?
I told you to set my alarm but you didn't!
Honey, I'm sorry.
Don't blame me for being late.
I told Tang to set an alarm but he didn't.
Explain.
Look at how I'm dressed. I was going out to play ball.
I was afraid you wouldn't wake up
so I came to inform Lin Yue in case she got mad.
Why didn't you set an alarm for me?
What is my wife supposed to think? We were to meet at 9 a.m.!
What time is it now?
Were you creating an opportunity for you to be alone with my wife?
I--
[In Life and Love]
After leaving the real estate office today
the pain started again for some reason.
The results don't come out until next week, right?
I know the director of a joint venture hospital.
Let's go right now.
Tang, don't tell Ding Ren Jian yet.
He's the type of person who panics once he encounters trouble.
Did you see something or did someone tell you gossip?
If you can't say it
take back those ill-intentioned words about your daughter-in-law!
I won't allow them!
I'm ill-intentioned?
It was right at the hospital across from our house!
Who was the man?
The one with the surname Tang! Your old classmate, the wealthy Tang!
You're buying a house.
He paid 200,000 yuan.
Have you thought about what he's buying with that 200,000 yuan?
I called your office at noon.
Your coworker said you weren't there.
Where were you?
Are you okay? After I left, I've been really worried about you.
