We'll be brothers again in our next life!!
Why does my marriage always end in failure?
For 20 years, I have suffered living without you every day.
If one day, we can no longer find each other,
then let's come here to meet.
He hides his emotions. When he works, he is very organized.
My first impression was not wrong.
Song Jie has pushed me to the very edge.
We can't be together in this life, but I will look forward to the next life.
I hope that we will really last forever.
I know in this lifetime you have only Zhang Hao Tian in your heart.
I don't love you. That's the only reason.
I have always hoped that I could hold you like this one day.

The Ladder of Love
Episode 38
Hao Tian, don't get impulsive yet, listen to her first.
Le Mei is already really upset now.
She is upset, but my heart hurts more!
Le Mei, you know since young,
how our family have loved you, how we've protected you,
how stressed we become when you've suffered even a bit.
But why couldn't you protect yourself well?
I will not agree for you two to be together.
- I will go find him now!- Brother, don't!- Hao Tian!
Lu Feng said already, he loves me truly.
He just doesn't know how to express his feelings for me.
That's why he would do something like that.
You're still speaking for him now?!
What kind of person he is, I am clearer on that than you are!
Hao Tian, say a few words less! This is the office.
Fine, then tell me, he loves you so much,
why didn't he place you on a higher status?
He...he...
Say it.
You can't say anything, right? From today on,
I won't allow you to see him again!
Le Mei! Hao Tian, hurry and go to her!
I won't go!
You're back?
Mum, you don't care about father's injuries at all?
I've already separated with him.
Whether he's alive or dead,
it doesn't relate to me.
Dad is not here, is there use for you to say that?
We just went to see Dad, his injuries are very serious this time.
His leg is broken too.
The doctor said, he might have to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
How could he have become a crippled already?
Mum, you love Dad so much, why won't you let him know what you think?
Even if a woman is any stronger,
she still needs a man's reliance.
You like him so much, you never let him know your feelings
and keep going against him.
What use is there to say these now?
I've already kicked him out.
He must hate me to death.
Mum, how could Dad hate you?
Right now is Dad's weakest moment.
He especially needs his family's care.
If you don't want Sun Hui Fang to steal Dad away,
then you should go visit him even more.
I got it.
Jerk!
Lu Feng, I'm telling you, from today on, I won't allow you to come into contact with Le Mei!
Zhang Hao Tian, don't come here out of the blue to interfere with my and Le Mei's business, alright?!
Le Mei is my little sister, I need to interfere when she has been picked on!
I'm telling you, I will not allow for Le Mei to be in a relationship with you!
Looks like Le Mei has told you everything.
Le Mei was willing, why are you blaming me?!
We're both in love with each other, what is not allowed?!
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to get Le Mei back.
If my parents from beyond the grave
knew how I treated Zhang Ming Shan's daughter,
how happy they would be! How consoled they would be!
Lu Feng!
I don't want to say anymore of this with you.
Do you know?
I know there are a lot of grudges between our two families.
Our family has always treated you two brothers sincerely, we have always been doing that, we've never haggled over anything!
We've given so much for you two!
You've broken my biological father's leg.
He didn't fuss anything, he did it to repent!
And you? Could you not use your parents' suicide as an excuse
to hurt others anymore?!
If you continue like this, you will get what you deserve.
I've said already, my parents' suicide was forced by Song Tian Cheng!
Yes, sure. For these many years,
I was eating the Zhang family's meals,
using the Zhang family's money, been through the Zhang family's kindness. But so what?!
- Then do we owe you?!- None of these matters!
Le Mei has been with you for so long.
She loves you so much, I don't believe that you don't have a tiny bit of feelings for her!
If you don't love her, then let go of her.
Let her live in a free life.
If you still love her, then please let go of the hatred in your heart
and love her well. Let her be the happiest woman in this world,
please?
I don't need you to interfere.
Tian Cheng, why are you not lying down?
I've been lying for so many days, I want to sit up.
Alright, then I'll help you.
What are you two doing?
He Min, you've finally come visit.
Song Tian Cheng, I thought you were in a serious condition.
I was so worried, I lost my appetite and couldn't sleep.
But I didn't ever think,
that you would use you injuries to enjoy your time with you ex-lover.
I really regret coming to visit.
Madame Song, you've misunderstood.
We didn't interact alone.
My husband also came to take care of Chairman Song everyday.
He went out to buy something,
he will come back soon.
Do you think I'm a three years-old child?
I have my own eyes, I can see, I can analyse!
On this earth, which husband
is willing to let his wife take care of her ex-lover?
He Min, can you not speak vile words the moment you come in?
The days when you haven't been here,
it was indeed Ming Shan and his wife taking care of me.
Can you distinguish the good and bad first?
Yes, I don't distinguish the good and bad,
that's why I would be blind and got married to you.
Alright, you two have met uneasily. Say what you have to say in good manners.
I'm going to leave first.
He Min, I've been thinking a lot for the past days.
We could come to this stage
was all because I've been too selfish in the past
and didn't treat you sincerely.
Right now, I'm already a crippled.
I can't ask for anything anymore.
But I really hope you could forgive everything I've done in the past.
You know you're in the wrong now.
Since our Tian Cheng has begun business,
it has been under constant trouble.
But every time I think of you,
think of our family, our children,
I'm willing to continue no matter how much harder it gets.
Normally, I always raised my voice towards you
because of my bad habit.
But I really don't have any bad intention towards you.
You yell at others when you get mad, lecture others when you're unhappy.
Who could take that?
For these twenty odd years, I've always supported this family with all I have.
About Hao Tian, I really am apologetic to you.
Butt that all happened before we got married.
He Min, I hope you could accept me,
trust me.
Hui Fang and I have our own limits,
I will never do any apologetic to both families.
Tian Cheng, don't you think it's too late for you to say these?
At the beginning, I advised you not to acknowledge Zhang Hao Tian as your son,
but you never listened.
Look at you, you destroyed your reputation and body.
These are all I deserve.
But don't worry, when the media meeting comes,
I will give Chu Zhen Hua something good to see.
I will do it for you.
He Min, you can't ever do that.
We don't have the abilities to make Chu Zhen Hua mad.
Whether we can or not, I will not let him off.
I have his weakness in my hands.
Lets see how long he can still be happy.
Lu Feng, my Brother knows about it.
I really am in pain.
I don't know what I should do, that's why I called you.
Zhang Le Mei, why did you have to tell everyone about us?
Must you have everyone blame it on me?
Lu Feng, how could you say such overboard words?
How is it possible that I would destroy my reputation?
I also don't hope for things to develop to what it is now.
Do you-you know? Since I've reconciled with you, it's as if I've been cursed.
I've had bad luck everyday! Everyday!
Why are you crying?! Are you complaining that I don't have enough bad luck?!
Lu Feng. Lu Feng, I didn't mean that.
Don't be mad, don't be mad. I didn't mean that!
I think it's over for us.
Lu Feng, what do you mean by that?
Le Mei, I must be honest with you.
I reconciled with you this time
was indeed for another intention.
But since we've reconciled,
I really think I am very happy.
I really am sincerely wanting to be with you.
But your family, do you know?
Your family keeps interfering, keeps stopping us from being together.
Today, your Brother ran to my office and fought with me.
Forcing me to break up with you, I have no choice.
So, let's break up.
Lu Feng, I don't wan to break up.
We reconciled with difficulty.
No, Lu Feng. I don't want to break up.
I don't want to break up.
Le Mei, if you really want to blame,
then blame it on my coldheartedness.
The hatred between our families runs too deep,
it's impossible for us to be together, this is an unarguable truth.
Perhaps this is our fate, admit to it.
♫My vision has become very blurry♫
♫Tears have slowly begun to drip♫
♫Why have our love become so foreign?♫
♫I thought we could return to the beginning♫
You're already twenty something years old, is it still an early relationship?
Does your dad want you to make you wait until you're thirty? By that time, nobody will want to love you.
Are you loathing my old age now?
- Are you? Are you? Are you?- No.
No!
- No way.- What's wrong?
My Mum is about to be back.
About to be back, that means she's not back yet, right?
- Hurry, just once.- Just once.
Just once.
♫We've loved to this stage, I'm willing to sacrifice for you♫
♫It's a sweet blindness♫
♫The whole heart has been put into love♫
♫Happiness that swallowed tears♫
Le Mei, if you really want to blame,
then blame it on my coldheartedness.
The hatred between our families runs too deep,
it's impossible for us to be together, this is an unarguable truth.
Perhaps this is our fate, admit to it.
Le Mei? Stop the car!
Le Mei!
Why do you not know how to love yourself?
♫...so hard to walk on♫
♫Too much deep feelings♫
♫The happiness that swallowed tears♫
Luo Shan, thank you for helping me this time.
Since I'm that useful, shouldn't you guys, as you've said,
from tomorrow on, let me go back to Lang Yue Corporation and be the Vice Manager?
Luo Shan, with you current status and reputation, asking you to be the Vice Manager of Lang Yue?
Won't it trouble you too much?
That's right, Luo Shan. Look, you're back now,
but a lot of workers still don't know.
Give us some time, I will help you construct your reputation.
Am I that scary?
Look at you guys, your faces change colour the moment you hear I want to come back.
Chairwoman, Zi Yang, Lu Feng once said,
I'm as gentle as a cat.
As long as you do as I say, I am very obedient.
But if someone makes me mad,
I will extend my claws,
and claw him until he's covered with scratches.
We still welcome you very much.
I was joking.
I said I wanted to go back to Lang Yue just to see if you guys would keep your word.
Letting me come back to this office table,
I am very uninterested in that.
My current target is Long Wei Corporation.
I need to gather my forces
and push Chu Zhen Hua down.
You're right. Chu Zhen Hua is cunning,
he should be our common enemy.
That's why, our cooperation will be very happy.
Luo Shan, how do you want to defeat Chu Zhen Hua?
I will support so very much so. That's right,
didn't you say you still have a handle on Chu Zhen Hua in your box?
Can you give it to me?
Chairwoman He, aren't you a bit too greedy?
The evidence in the box is my last talisman.
If I give it to you,
then what am using to play with Chu Zhen Hua?
Dad. Dad!
Chairman!
Dad! Are you alright, Dad?
Hao Tian, Qiu Yan.
I'm a cripple now.
Dad, don't say things like that anymore.
What kind of terrible trouble you haven't experienced?
You will definitely be able to get better. I'll help you up, come.
Hao Tian, I can get up by myself.
Dad.
- Dad!- Chairman!
Quickly take a seat.
Dad, you're inconvenient in moving.
Why didn't you tell us when you were dispatched from the hospital? We could have driven you home.
I owe your mother too, too much.
For taking care of me, there must have been misunderstandings with Ming Shan.
I can't create any more conflict between them.
So, I left the hospital in secret,
only because I don't want to add to everyone's troubles.
Dad, from today on,
let me and Qiu Yan take care of you.
Father knows you're a filial son.
Don't worry, father is fine.
Chairman, drink some tea.
Thank you, Qiu Yan.
Tian Cheng! Tian Cheng!
Tian Cheng, come. Get up.
Get up, slowly. Come, Tian Cheng.
Here, have some water.
Right, how did you find this place?
To let you see such an embarrassed side of me. Seriously...
How many people have sucked up to you in the past?
Right now, nobody is here to help you when you're in trouble.
That Sun Hui Fang is too.
How did you take care of you? How did she just left you alone here?
You don't need to worry about me. I can take care of myself. There's no problem.
You know how to speak for her too.
I think she could see how distressed you are and wanted to hide far away from you.
Don't speak so terribly about her.
They're both honest people.
I just don't want to trouble them anymore.
But you, how have you been? Still good?
Don't worry about me, I've been very good.
Recently, I've been contacting Luo Shan,
we're going to push Chu Zhen Hua over.
How could you be walking together with that woman?
She has a whole lot of hidden intentions, you can't fall into her hands.
I'm not as stupid as you think and I won't fall into her trap.
Only through her, could I defeat Chu Zhen Hua.
If you guys continue fighting like this,
both of you will be severely injured sooner or later.
Alright, alright. Just get well from your injuries.
Don't mind my business.
This.
What are you doing?
It was originally me who should be taking care of you and the children.
Take back these money, I don't need it.
Tian Cheng. Tian Cheng, we've already been husband and wife for twenty odd years.
Do you...do you really want to watch me be upset?
Keep this. Nurture your body well, I'm going.
Hope the media meeting goes well.From the Luo Shan who loves you.
Want to scare me?
Wen Jun, why are you calling me phone?
You don't need to mind my business.
I'm willing to take my revenge on Chu Zhen Hua, that's my business.
You're only a small assistant, I don't need you tell me how to do it.
Please don't ever disturb me again.
What to do? I can't let other people know I have Wen Jun's child.
Do I really have to abort this child?
No, this is my child. I can't do that.
What to do? What to do? My life can't be destroyed in this man's hands.
I need my child have an even more valuable future.
Lu Feng, I've waited for a long time for you.
Is there something you want from me?
Tell me, what is it?
I came today because I want to tell you some good news.
Good news?
I'm pregnant.
Why does your pregnancy relate to me?
Don't you want to know whose the child is?
Apart from Chu Zhen Hua, is there somebody else?
That's right. That's why I came to discuss cooperation with you today.
What do you mean?
My goal is very simple.
I want to let this child enter the Chu family with legitimacy.
I want all of the Chu family's property and wealth be under my name.
By then, I could divide one part of Long Wei's stocks for you.
What do you think about this idea?
Otherwise, why would there be an old saying that says "A woman's heart is the most poisoned."?
Looks like you women are crueler than us men.
Weren't it all forced by you men?
But back to the point, I quite like this idea.
Good, happy cooperation.
How could she be so careless?
Business is for making money, not enemies.
In the past, it is because I don't understand that logic,
that I would become like I am today.
Our Song family's grudges with Chu Zhen Hua,
when are they going to be able to end?
Chairman, your body just recovered, you must never get mad easily.
Hao Tian, Qiu Yan, hurry and think of a solution.
No matter what, you must stop her.
Yes.
Zi Han, what's wrong? You look so deflated.
Mum, do you think Chu Zhen Hua will let us go if we do this?
Enough, enough. Don't say that. Don't ruin my good mood.
Mum, I really have a terrible premonition.
How about we don't do it?
Chairwoman He is here! Chairman He!- Chairwoman He!
Chairwoman He, could you say a few words to us?- What are you planning to do? Could you expose some of it to us?
Chairwoman, are all the rumours true?
- Chairwoman He, could you tell us beforehand?- Let's go that way.
- Chairwoman He, say a bit!- Could you please say a bit? Say a bit, please?
Sorry, please get away. Please get away.
Chairwoman He! Chairwoman He! Chairwoman He!
Chairwoman He!
Mum, we must destroy that Chu Zhen Hua this time.
This is what he deserves, he dug his own grave.
Chu Zhen Hua,
aren't you so expectant of the media meeting in a few days?
How about this, I'll give you two choice.
One, hand over your stocks in Jun Hao Department Store.
Two,
expose all of your shames to every big media company.
I'll give you ten minutes for considering.
He Min,
don't get too cocky.
Be careful of burning yourself when you're playing with fire!
Fine, since that's the way it is,
don't blame me for being discourteous.
Seeing me here, is it very unexpected?
Why are you trembling? It's cold outside.
Luo Shan, seeing that you're scared to death, my heart is not willing to.
As long as you give it to me obediently,
I will not hurt you.
Don't do anything rash, I'm pregnant with your child right now.
Child? You're pregnant?
Luo Shan, don't be like those stupid woman.
Do you think that your pregnancy
could bind me and control me?
I have a pregnancy report here.
If you don't believe me, do you want to take a look?
Fine, if you give me all of the evidence,
I can overlook everything you've done in the past.
I can even let you return to my side,
and I will let you take responsibility for Long Wei.
Luo Shan, you know my feelings for you haven't changed.
Don't be petulant, hurry and give it to me.
- I've given the thing to He Min.- What?
Don't be impatient, I can take it back for you.
But you must promise me something.
Promise you what? Say it.
- I want you to find a lawyer and give me half of your stocks.- This...!
I can't stop the car!
What did you say? He Min got into a car crash?
Yes, when I got there with Hao Tian,
the medical workers are already there.
Chairwoman He has been sent to the hospital.
If it weren't Chu Zhen Hua, who could have done something like this?
How could things become like this?
Madame Chu, I came this time to ask you to tell Chairman Chu,
not to keep fighting with Chairwoman.
Also the police has recorded what happened this time.
If he keeps being so unrepentant like this,
you can imagine what will happen in the end.
Chairman Chu, if He Min has your evidence on her,
she would take taken it out already.
Why would she not let it go and make herself suffer?
I have nothing to say if you want to keep saying that this accident was caused by me.
Chairman Chu, please put yourself in perspective.
If it was Madame Chu who got into today's accident,
would you standby and watch? Although He Min strives to be the very best,
but she won't be ignorant in the current situation.
She must have calculations in undertaking issues.
Oh my. Song Tian Cheng,
don't come interrogate me when something happens to He Min. Don't forget,
she was the one who didn't take your marriage into consideration
and kicked you out.
Dad, we're here.
- Dad?- Chairman?
Dad?!
Hao Tian, there's a note here.
"I went out with Zi Han"?
Sorry, the number you have dialled is not in service.
It doesn't connect.
Why did you guys come?
Let's not say so much now. Dad got taken away by Zi Han.
His phone doesn't connect, we don't know where he is.
Zi Han? Where are you?
What?!
Let's go.
Chairman Chu, I, Song Tian Cheng, has never hung his head for anyone.
But I'll kneel down for you this time.
- Chairman.- Dad!
I beg you let go of He Min.
Chairman Chu, please consider it for the amount of years we've known each other.
Let's shake hands and resolve this.
I believe that after this time,
she will realise her wrongdoings.
I didn't think, I didn't think,
that the famous Chairman Song
would kneel in front of me and beg today.
Where's your mightiness?
Chairman Chu, as long as you're happy,
I'm willing to do whatever you want in He Min's place.
Please lift your expensive hand and let her go.
- I'll bow down to the floor to you.- Dad!
- Chairman! Chairman!- Dad!
- Dad, don't bow down to this kind of person!- Chairman!
The more you lay down, the more he looks down on you!
Song Tian Cheng, I really feel sad for you.
I also feel sad for myself.
You've always been my biggest enemy.
In the end? You become so weak now!
Where is your past daringness? Where is your mightiness?
- Where have they gone?!- Dad!
What mightiness, what brutality,
I don't care anymore.
I only want to protect my family well now.
Chu Zhen Hua! I'll fight you!
- Zi Yang! Zi Yang!- Brother! Brother!
- Chairman!- Zi Yang!- I'll fight you!
Zi Yang!
Zi Yang! Zi Yang!
Zi Yang, come. Get up.
What?! You all came to my office to make trouble, did you?!
Chu Zhen Hua, aren't you doing too much?
My Dad has already retreated to this step, you're still unwilling to have mercy!
That's right, Brother-in-law. Can't you let go of the Chu family?
That Luo Shan weren't a good person anyway.
For marrying you, she is willing to do anything.
You shut up! It doesn't matter if the Song family comes make trouble,
but you also think it was my fault?!
I'm telling you, Chu Zhen Hua, we don't have what you want.
I'm begging you, Chairman Chu, stop bothering the Song family.
Zhang Hao Tian, I really am impressed of you.
He Min sees you as a weed.
But you see her as your own mother.
Even her own children aren't saying anything!
Why are you standing up for her?
And you, stop pretending to be pitiful.
I'm telling you, I'm giving you face now.
Get out, all of you! Otherwise, I'll call the security to haul you out!
Chu Zhen Hua, have you said enough?!- Zi Yang! Zi Yang!- Brother!
Don't get impulsive. Dad's body is still very weak.
Let's send Dad back first. We'll continue discussing in the future.
Dad, let's go.
Chairman, let's go.
Come, slowly.- Zi Yang, let's go.
- Dad, slowly.- Dad!
Careful.
Zhang Hao Tian, Chen Qiu Yan! Stay here, I have something to say.
Fine, say whatever it is.
I don't want Jun Hao Department Store's stocks anymore.
From now on, I want to withdraw from Jun Hao Department Store.
My accountant has already calculated for me.
I've invested 1.2 billion in Jun Hao Department Store in total.
I'll give you three days to return everything to me.
Chu Zhen Hua, there are some issues with Jun Hao's operation right now.
You're adding misfortune to the unfortunate right now!
As a stockholder, I am only notifying you,
I am not discussing with you.
And you, Chen Qiu Yan, if you really see me as your Brother-in-law,
then hurry and cancel your engagement to this brat!
Brother-in-law, I know you love Tian Xin a lot.
But you can't destroy my happiness because of that.
Qiu Yan, don't say anything to him.
Chu Zhen Hua, our marriage will never cancel.
That's right, I forgot to tell you. Whether you give us your blessings,
we don't care.
Qiu Yan, let's go.
1.2 billion! Three days!
Luo Shan, hurry and give me the evidence!
My Mum is lying in the hospital, I need that thing to dissolve the grudge between the two families!
It's not that I'm not helping you, but I've already given all of the evidence to your mother.
I don't have the thing you want with me.
Luo Shan, you're still lying at this moment?
If something happens to my Mum, I will not let you go!
You let go! I don't think none of Chu family members speak logically.
- You, you...!- Luo Shan, you can't go!
You let go, let go!
Brother!
Hao Tian!
Tian Xin, let me see. What's wrong?
What happened that you're crying so much?
Hao Tian, I really can't continue on.
Apart from you, I really don't know who I can go to.
Come, don't get impatient. Let's speak slowly.
- Did Tian Xin come?- What happened?
Tian Xin, why are you crying?
Aunt, that Luo Shan is too evil.
She came to disturb me and my mother every once in a while.
A while ago, there was a dead mouse in the mail.
These few days, she keeps coming to my house.
But what's even worse, my Dad complains whenever my Mum brings it up.
This is indeed too much. But Tian Xin, listen to Aunt,
you can't lose your logic during this time.
Otherwise your Mum won't know who to speak to.
Also, during this key moment, it doesn't help to come.
Qiu Yan is right.
Luo Shan is like that, she never does anything with order.
- If you're really angry, then you would have fallen into her trap.- Exactly.
But watching her break apart my family,
I'm really about to be crazy with anger!
- Tian Xin, Tian Xin!- Sister!
Why did you come here?
Tian XIn, I'm sorry.
Mum have made you suffer.
But no matter what,
he's still your father, he's still our family.
Mum, why are you so weak?
She has already got above you, you're still keeping silent.
Tian Xin, how could you speak to your mother like this?
Do you think mum feels good about this?
Sister...
Which woman wants to see her husband
has another woman in his heart? But since things have happened,
we must accept it. No matter how your father
takes care of this relationship in the end, we must believe in him.
But Mum, this is unfair.
When have there ever been fairness in this world?
Mum.
Why is it you guys?
Lu Feng, we have some business we want to discuss with you.
What? You're not inviting us inside?
Lu Feng, let's get to the point.
Today, we came to ask you a favour.
We heard you're very close with Luo Shan,
we have heard about that a long time ago.
Luo Shan and I are only in a working relationship.
I was originally Long Wei's Manager and she was Tian Cheng's Vice Manager.
Our contact can't be counted as private, right?
If it's nothing serious, please go.
♫Once cried and once hated.♫
♫Shrinking in the cold wind♫
♫Once crid and once hated.♫
♫Oh, the tears are swallowed by the rain drops♫
♫ I really don't want you to cry. ♫
♫We've had too many misunderstandings. ♫
♫I watch your face. ♫
♫ It's stubborn yet beautifully heartbreaking. ♫
♫ I can't face it. ♫
♫So I act like it doesn't matter. ♫
♫But that has made you cry. ♫
♫There is no chance for me to explain ♫
♫The troubles in my heart, ♫
♫and the self-deprecating blame. ♫
♫Love will make people break each other's hearts. ♫
♫Why is it that only after breaking up, ♫
♫ do I feel the pain in my heart? ♫
♫These tears endlessly wet your face. ♫
♫ I force myself to say goodbye. ♫
♫ But when the words are on the tip of my tongue, it makes you cry, ♫
♫like your heart has been slowly ripped apart.♫
♫ Why is it that only after leaving you, ♫
♫do I want to return to the past? ♫
♫But love is already too far away from me. ♫
♫I'll just accept all of this. ♫
♫I force myself to say goodbye, but it makes you cry once again, ♫
♫like your heart has been slowly ripped apart. ♫
♫I am in debt to you. ♫
