[Episode 17]
If you dare to walk past me holding her hand
don't call me Dad anymore.
From now on, I'm not giving you another cent.
Don't live in my house or drive my car.
The perfect life I have given you is over.
Uncles and Aunties, I'm sorry.
This marriage alliance directed by my Dad will end here.
I hope you enjoyed the show. I can't stay any longer.
Zhi Wei, Zhi Wei.
Zhi Wei! Zhi Wei!
- Zhi Wei! - Stop right there!
Dad.
Wait, no.
Mr. Zhai Tao, goodbye.
Okay, okay. Don't be mad.
Okay, okay. Calm down.
Should I leave or not?
I think I should leave.
I forgot my bag.
Where are you taking me now?
To your place.
I only agreed to ruin your engagement party.
I didn't say I would take you in.
Where else can I go? I gave up everything for love.
This is not love, dear.
My goodness.
You were so adamant inside. I thought you had a plan for yourself.
I'm telling you. You are no longer my concern.
I'm really tired. I'm going home to sleep.
Don't follow me. If you do, I'll beat you up.
An Qing Huan.
What did I just say?
Hand. Let go.
Don't you dare follow me.
- An Qing Huan. An Qing Huan! - Go.
An Qing Huan! An Qing Huan!
- Hey. - How could you leave me here on my own?
CEO Zhai! Great, you haven't left yet.
I have to talk to you.
Do we have anything to talk about?
CEO Zhai, even though you are not my boss anymore.
I have to answer for this.
I have the complete version of Tang Enterprise's newest game.
We'll make a killing this time.
They hacked us, so I hacked them.
If legal action is taken, he and I will bear the blame.
You weren't a part of it.
If you act quickly, you might not lose.
- Do you know what I hate the most? - What?
Others wearing the same clothes or shoes that I'm wearing
or chasing after the same girl.
If others have the same things I have, I throw mine away. I don't want it.
Why would you throw it away? The money has been spent. Why let them profit?
New marketing, development, and release to market costs
all require enormous funding.
An intellectual property rights lawsuit also requires money.
Have you checked the stock market today?
After the press conference, New Power's stock has gone to shit!
Do you know what I'd do if I were Tang Xiao Gang?
I'd give that loser, Zhai Zhi Wei, a call
and acquire his company at the lowest possible cost.
CEO Zhai, you don't intend to sell the company to Tang Xiao Gang, do you?
Why wouldn't I do that?
I'm telling you that I hope he calls me.
I will meet with him and negotiate.
Oh, wait, not negotiate, but rather beg.
l would beg him to make me a good offer!
You are not one to kneel and beg others!
Of course I am!
My dad is the businessman in this house.
As his son, even I am a business to him. Of course, I know how to do business!
You can yield to anyone except Tang Xiao Gang!
- Shut up. - You can ask your dad for money.
- Shut up! - Say you were wrong and apologize!
- I said shut up. - Ask him to write you a check!
I'll shut you up!
Why don't you keep talking?
Who's calling?
Ding Ren Jian, give me back my phone.
I said give it back!
You can't answer his call.
Unless you catch me!
I'm not giving it to you!
- Give it to me! - No!
Stop, Ding Ren Jian!
The plan can officially begin.
I'm going to meet that person right now. Make arrangements immediately.
He's so heartless, so I can't be blamed for being disloyal.
It has already been arranged. We'll meet at his clubhouse.
Send Jia Xin home first, and then we'll go straight to the clubhouse.
Mom, who are you meeting? What are you planning?
You'll find out later.
Are you restart your rivalry with the Zhai family?
Wasn't there an agreement back then that our families would never fight again?
Back then?
That's because Madam Zhai and I were both pregnant at the same time.
It was a moment of compassion.
I had even hoped our families could one day become one big family.
I've regretted it all these years.
Now a great opportunity has presented itself.
They broke the agreement first. Why would I have any qualms now?
Besides, I built up Zen Corporation, bit by bit, from a small restaurant.
In the past, Zhai Tao was merely a peddler of imported wines.
What right did he have to be in control all these years?
You want to force Uncle Zhai to step down, so you can become chairwoman?
Why not?
With my abilities, am I not capable of being chairwoman?
But if you do this, you'll be officially declaring war against the Zhai family.
How will I face Zhi Wei from now on?
You sure are absurd.
Are you still my daughter?
That punk took another woman's hand right before your eyes
and strutted out of there with everyone watching.
As my daughter, you should want to make him suffer the same humiliation
instead of abasing yourself in front of me.
So what if I am? Love is to humble yourself before the one you love!
You know my temper.
I'll let you off for what happened today, for now.
Go home. I don't want to see you.
If I ever find out that you have interfered in my business again
you'll have a far worse fate than what Zhai Zhi Wei experienced yesterday.
Stop the car. Get out.
- Mom! - Get out!
Give me the phone! Don't make me hit you!
- Tang Xiao Gang. - Give it to me!
Damn you, bastard!
What exactly do you want?
I want...
I want you to not give up.
You're still so young.
You're so smart and have such a powerful family.
If even you can't defeat him, then what chance would I have?
So? I should fight him for you?
I should give up on my last chance to get money?
With that money, I could build up another company!
I could make a comeback!
Am I supposed to give that up for you?
- Not for me. - Then for what?
For...
For reverence and honor.
Isn't that what we originally aspired to when we created the game?
Hello, Chairman Tang. Sorry to keep you waiting.
I'm so sorry for making you come out so late at night.
It's all right as long as this trip turns out to be worthwhile.
Chairman Tang, we've been in contact before
but I will officially introduce myself this time.
Here is my business card.
Chairman Pan.
This is Vice President Qin of Zen Corporation.
Vice President Qin?
I've heard so much about you. You have a solid reputation.
- I could say the same about you. - I wouldn't dare make that claim.
You are a legend in the culinary world.
I'm merely a player who dabbles in everything.
I know you couldn't have noticed me.
There's nothing better than perfect timing.
I watched the New Power press conference.
A small, sordid act.
It doesn't matter if your means to an end is noble or sordid.
The motive is more important.
The motive was not entirely noble either.
It seems we really have picked the right person.
You're already worthy and deserve admiration for acknowledging this.
I like shameless, straightforward people.
Then, let's get straight to the point today.
I'm sorry, Vice President Qin and Chairman Pan.
I've been busy with some personal matters lately.
I might not have much time. Let's keep things brief.
Okay, I'll be direct, then.
What do you plan to do next? Acquire New Power?
Of course. As a senior, do you have any suggestions?
You two aren't here to tell me to stop, are you?
I know Vice President Qin has a tight-knit relationship with the Zhais.
Tell me. How much money do you need?
If you can complete this acquisition in a short amount of time
I will provide support at no cost to you.
No cost?
This doesn't sound like the attitude of a businessperson, Vice President Qin.
Perhaps I'm looking forward to cashing in on an even greater return from you.
I'm really looking forward to it.
You mean you need me to be the middleman
to acquire Zen Corporation's 15 percent shares overseas?
That's correct.
Even though I have my hands in many things
I have never had much interest in the food and beverage industry.
You will be interested.
Chairman Tang and Vice President Qin, I have to go. Take your time.
Goodbye, Chairman Pan.
Cheers...
Thank you, everybody!
Don't mention it.
Why are you acting like a good girl?
Nobody comes here not wanting to be touched.
Hey, don't go. You don't have a boyfriend, right?
We can be your boyfriends for a while. Let your boyfriend give you a kiss.
Don't be shy!
- Don't go. - Let go of me! What are you doing?
Hey!
Before hitting on her, did you ask me, her boyfriend, for permission?
Beat it!
What the f---?
Why don't you mind your own business?
Let's go.
Get back here!
What?
Put it on. Look at how you're dressed!
Where are you going?
Taking you home. Where else do you want to go, Miss?
Or would you rather go back there and play with those brutes?
They took advantage of me. Why are you yelling at me?
Why are all you men the same?
Don't group me in with those friends of yours.
You and I are not the same kind of people!
Seriously! Why was I so softhearted as to help you?
I brought this trouble on myself.
Or, did I ruin your plans for tonight? I really thought you were a good girl.
All right, go wherever you want.
Leave! All of you, leave!
None of you want me! Leave!
Go away!
I understand now.
So you want to take over Zen Corporation and force the old man to step down.
I knew you were a smart person.
But, there's still something I don't understand.
You could say that this is an undeclared war.
So, why would you pull me into this?
Wouldn't it better if you took
direct possession of that 15 percent of shares?
The shareholder won't sell them to me.
- Because back then-- - You don't need to explain.
I just needed to know why.
How can you guarantee that they will yield these equity shares to me?
I'm sure the old man won't just sit by and watch.
You don't need to worry about the old man.
As long as you're willing to help, I will propose a vote for his dismissal.
Then, he will have to make a choice and choose between
protecting his chairman position or the shares.
As for the shareholder, I will clear the way for you.
I trust in your ability to deliver.
New Power Company is the best example.
You've shown me your true shamelessness and baseness.
Vice President Qin, I don't like hearing that.
That doesn't sound like a compliment.
Sometimes, shamelessness and baseness are the best armor.
I am sincerely complimenting you.
Okay, okay, I understand.
So, since you understand
do you still want to discuss this business with me?
It's like this, Vice President Qin.
Even though you are more experienced than me in business
and you have been doing this longer than me
I'm still respected in the business industry
and have a lot of experience.
All these years, I've had a rule when I do business.
That is, I don't touch a business opportunity that is overly profitable
because there is most likely a problem with it.
From the start
you said, you would financially support my acquisition of New Power
and you want me to have 15 percent of Zen Corporation's equity shares.
Why would I believe
that such good fortune would just suddenly fall into my lap?
I really never imagined...
you would be so conservative.
Someone who doesn't believe in good fortune like that
isn't qualified to work with me.
I'm very sorry to say that, Chairman Tang.
I make certain that sudden good fortune is really good.
You didn't tell me your real motive for doing all of this.
Those who hold things back from me
are similarly unqualified to do business with me.
I'm also very sorry to say that, Vice President Qin.
Please see yourself out.
Let me borrow your phone.
Did a dog eat your memory? Didn't you smash my phone to pieces?
What about money? You at least have some money, right?
You only have 10 yuan on you?
An Qing Huan asked me to buy her food, and she said she would reimburse me.
I have to remember to ask her to pay me back tomorrow.
What the hell is this?
So what now?
We only have 10 yuan! I can't even take a cab!
What cab?
It'll be morning soon, and the buses will be running.
I can lend you five yuan.
Forget it. I'll treat you to a bus ride, all right--
What? What do you want me to ride a bus?
Don't tell me you've never taken the bus.
What's this for?
Yogurt is good for sobering up. You drank a lot.
So tell me. Why aren't you going home?
Today was supposed to be my engagement day.
So, you're going to be a married woman. You should be going home.
I was dumped.
- By your fiancé? - Yes.
Pull up the corners of your mouth and smile already.
A wanton woman like me was dumped.
And, I was dumped twice in one day.
Wait, how many fiancés do you have?
My mom is the one who dumped me later.
Speaking of which, it was for you guys.
For us? What does that mean?
What do you mean by that?
What do I mean?
I get the feeling my mom is planning something big
that affects more than just the Zhai family.
It's also related to your project.
The old building reconstruction project?
Can you even understand those?
Let me tell you. Your mom's proposal is very unreliable.
It should have been turned down long ago.
What's the matter?
I know what my mom is going to do.
Don't tell me you don't even know how to buy a ticket.
Shut up. I'm studying it right now.
What's there to study? Just insert two yuan.
Did I ask you?
Get the receipt, so you can be reimbursed later.
What reimbursement? Doesn't it all come out of my own pocket?
CEO Zhai, you just need to catch the 104 line here
and ride eight stops to the Xibahe stop to reach our office.
Do I need you to make arrangements for me?
Where are you going if not the office?
Of course, I have places I could go.
I'm Zhai Zhi Wei.
Do you think I don't know any other rich people other than Zhai Tao?
I have friends who own hotels and others who own clubhouses.
It wouldn't be a big deal for them to buy me a house
much less let me crash for a few days.
If you hadn't thrown away my phone
I would have already received numerous calls offering to take me in.
No, begging me to stay with them.
Okay, okay, you're cool.
You have many friends and a vast network of contacts.
Enjoy it, then.
Wait, Boss. Which friend are you going to?
Shut up.
Don't forget what we talked about yesterday!
- Reverence and honor! - Bye!
Ren Jian, you're early today.
Good morning. I went to buy breakfast at Ms. Li's.
Oh, okay. Busy morning.
Tang Xiao Gang! What are you doing?
Where are you taking them?
Tang Xiao Gang, get out!
Where are you taking them?
Ding, calm down. We're just taking Man Yi to apply for a visa.
I can take my son to get a visa!
Get out! Let my wife out!
You--
Tang!
Let my son out!
Tang Xiao Gang, let them out!
Listen up!
If you want to take them away today, you'll have to run me over first!
Unlock the doors. I'll get out and talk to him.
Talk about what? You don't need to discuss the divorce anymore.
I will get a lawyer to do it.
We've been married for so many years.
It's normal that Ding wouldn't agree to a divorce.
People are watching. It will be worse if others gossip.
- Then let them gossip! - What are you saying?
- Ding Man Yi is here! - So what if Man Yi is here?
He's grown up. He should know about this!
It's better if he's exposed to it now.
Ding Man Yi, from now on, I am your father!
What did you say? Open the door!
You're not my dad! I want Dad! I want Dad!
Tang, open the doors. Unlock the doors!
Dad! I want to get out!
- Tang! Open the doors! - I want Dad!
- Tang! - I want to get out! I want Dad!
- Tang, open the doors! - I want Dad!
- Enough!
Ding Ren Jian, listen up.
I am taking Ding Man Yi and Lin Yue away today!
Over my dead body.
Then die!
- Well done! - Thank you.
It was meant to be yours. Nobody could steal it!
Manager An, the pistachios you like have been peeled and are on your desk.
Thank you.
Yes! Yes!
Who's the queen? Tell me. Who's the queen?
It's me! I'm the queen!
Manager An.
Already peeled!
Coffee made by someone else just tastes so good.
What are you doing?
What? Are you here to see my mom?
You're here to show off your victory, aren't you?
And if I am. So what?
Fine.
However, I suggest you don't celebrate so soon.
You won't be in this position for long.
After all, a change of sovereign brings a change of ministers.
Do you think this seat will still be yours, then?
It's nothing serious.
Don't worry. It's just a minor concussion.
I'll prescribe some antibiotics for you later.
- Doctor. - Yes?
Are my wife and son here?
What?
A woman who is quite pretty
and a little boy who is quite handsome and looks like me.
You mean the three of them?
They left once they knew you weren't in critical condition.
That was your wife and son?
I thought the three of them were a family.
All right, get some rest. I'll get you the antibiotics.
Hello?
What?
Uncle should be here soon. Don't panic.
- Uncle, you're finally here. - What's the matter?
You didn't see the newspaper's finance section this morning?
I was busy this morning. I didn't see it.
Come here. Uncle, look.
Tang Enterprise is buying out our company.
Is this true?
Where's CEO Zhai?
We can't reach him. Calls aren't going through to his phone, either.
Of course, you can't reach him. I threw his phone into the river.
Yesterday, he told me he was going to a friend's house.
Do you have a way to contact his closest friends?
Give them a call.
We don't know anything about CEO Zhai's personal life.
There has to be someone who drops by the office often.
A friend he's close with like I am with Tang Xiao Gang.
What's going on with all of them?
Uncle, there's actually another reason we asked you here today.
What do you mean?
Look, you have a special relationship with the owner of Tang Enterprise.
If the buyout rumor is true
we're hoping you can put in a good word for all of us.
We all want to keep our jobs
even if our salaries are lowered.
You all have been working for Zhai Zhi Wei longer than I have.
The first thing you think about when the company is in trouble
is getting a new boss?
That's not it.
Uncle, look. I'm just a young girl. I'm not highly educated.
It's not that easy for me to find a good job.
Besides, nobody wants to be unemployed.
That's right. Who wants that?
Exactly.
I now know why Zhai Zhi Wei didn't want to come to the office.
I'll give you a word of advice.
If you really want to work for Tang Xiao Gang
it's best if you don't mention me.
That would give you much better chances.
Uncle!
- Chairman Tang. - Is she inside?
She has been in there for some time now.
Alone.
Vice President Qin, sorry to keep you waiting.
Congratulations. I heard the acquisition has begun.
This is only the start.
I have a very important meeting soon. I can only give you 10 minutes.
That's plenty. I can say what I have to say in three minutes.
I'm listening.
Last time, you said I was holding back on you.
Yes, I admit to that.
I didn't tell you at the time because I felt the timing wasn't right.
Since it is so important to you, I'll reveal everything today.
Take a look at this.
Old Town District?
You have the land?
Not yet.
But, I currently have 80 percent certainty that I can have it.
If you help me rise to the chairman position of Zen Corporation
I will have a 90 percent chance of success.
- That is completely reasonable. - So...
So, I'll cancel my upcoming meetings
to have a nice talk with you without any interruption.
Manager An, there is a man who wants to see you.
- Who is it? - I don't know who he is.
But, he says it is urgent. It seems someone is missing.
What?
He didn't come to see you?
I told him I would beat him up if he dared to come see me.
He's already down on his luck. You women are so cruel.
Then, why didn't you take him in?
I'm even more down on my luck than he is!
Where should we look for him first?
I was his secretary before. I have a list of places he frequents.
[Golf course, clubhouse, nightclub, gym...]
What a rich boy.
The places he goes are
golf courses, high-end nightclubs, or race tracks.
What a prodigal son. I'm not coming.
Are you his friend or not?
Are we friends?
If you say we're not, I'll leave right now.
I'm leaving.
Hey! Are you serious? I helped you out so much yesterday.
You still haven't paid me back for the takeout.
Fine.
There are so many places to check. Let's hurry up and find him.
Aren't you in a hurry to find him? Why are you on your phone?
Aren't you funny?
Were you going to go to every single place?
You wouldn't just call and ask?
That's right!
I scare myself sometimes.
Sorry for the inconvenience, Mike.
Why are you being so courteous to me?
Good thing you two are here.
I wouldn't have known what to do with him so drunk.
How much did he drink?
You'll see.
Oh my gosh.
Cash or credit?
I'll pay by card.
- Can you give me a receipt? - Yes.
Okay, thanks.
You penniless good-for-nothing! You just had to drink this much?
Why did you drink so much? Wake up, Zhai Zhi Wei!
Zhai Zhi Wei, wake up!
Wake up! You can't keep sleeping!
We're in big trouble!
Zhai Zhi Wei, get up!
Get up!
Why did you get ice?
Hey, hey, you can't!
- Move out of the way. - He'll catch a cold!
You're finally up.
We're in big trouble. The company is in a state of chaos.
Tang Xiao Gang released news that he's buying out your company.
Wake up!
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Oh, you're looking for Young Master A-Ben?
He's abroad and won't be back for a long time.
Hey, bro. I heard you had a falling out with your dad.
Are you crazy?
Place to crash?
My girlfriend is here. It's not a good time.
Come, come.
CEO Zhai, you want to borrow money from me?
You must be kidding.
Is this another game you wealthy guys are playing?
Stop messing with me.
I'm sorry, Mr. Zhai.
Your VIP card with us has been canceled.
So... you must pay a deposit before checking in to a room. I'm sorry.
What will you do now?
He can do what he wants.
He can take over the entire New Power company if he wants.
I have no objections.
Was I talking to a dog yesterday?
I am a dog now, a stray dog.
Zhai Zhi Wei.
You can't act like this!
Let him be a dog. He has quite the talent for it.
Hello?
Where are you?
I also have something to say to you.
Let's meet up at the new house. I'll be waiting.
All right.
You made it.
- Can I come in? - Please come in.
Wait, what am I saying? This is your home.
First, this was very sudden, so I didn't have enough time to prepare.
Second, I don't have the financial capacity yet
so I used these substitutes
to plan out what our future home would look like.
Uh... Let's take a look at the thermidistat.
You grew up in the south.
You have always said winter in Beijing is too dry.
With this thermidistat, it can feel like spring all year round.
We will all be hydrated.
You like to drink fruit juice. A juicer!
I'll make different juices with different fruits for you every day.
There's also this grind and brew coffee maker.
You like to drink coffee.
I'll make fresh coffee for you every day.
Come here.
Look at this. This one's amazing.
This is a real leather sofa, made from Italian leather.
It will be bigger than this.
The place will be bright and spacious when guests come over.
And over here in this spot
I'm going to buy a 100-percent wool rug.
Our bare feet will feel so comfortable in the winter.
This here will be awesome.
I'm going to get a 120-inch LCD television.
Don't you like to watch television, especially romance dramas?
Every scene will be close up.
Watching television from the sofa will feel like watching TV in a theater.
And over here.
Enough, Ding Ren Jian.
What's wrong?
Do you think the sofa is too close to the television?
It does seem a bit too close.
If Man Yi watches television from the sofa
it will be bad for his eyes, right?
Right, right. I'll move the sofa back.
I'll move the sofa back.
It's okay. It'll be fixed very soon.
Ding Ren Jian.
It's okay. I'll have this fixed quickly.
Give me some time.
Ding Ren Jian!
Come with me.
This is my new home. Take a look around.
It has everything I could ever need. Everything is high-end.
Do you see?
Do you think it's nice?
Yes.
There's a divorce agreement on the table.
Sign it later.
Everything at home will be yours.
I will raise our son.
When he turns 18, he will come back for you.
I will make him support you for the rest of your life.
And...
When you leave, close the door quietly.
I'm tired. I'm going to nap for a bit.
Ding Ren Jian.
I've had enough of making do with you, Man Yi, and your dad.
One more day, and I'm going to have a breakdown.
There are three rooms. How should I arrange them?
I endured it when your dad wrongfully accused me.
Don't you go walking all over me, too.
This is my new home. Take a look around.
It has everything I could ever need. Everything is high-end.
