Miss, sorry we are about to close.
Are the operating hours over?
That means your chef finally has time to see me right?
He can't, our chef already left.
Then can you pay for your check please.
You look so cute, why are you so realistic.
I am forced to be.
This price really lacks humanity.
- Hello, boss. - Jia Ming.
In these times, it's really the villains who get to have success.
Such a popular restaurant has such a cold-hearted boss.
Bullying others for profit, covering the truth.
What use is talent and good looks
when he is empty on the inside?
From what I can tell, his character is about to be fried
and his soul is about to be marinated by salt.
Restaurants like this are only temporarily popular,
After a while it will close for the greater good!
They only know how to stack up some expensive ingredients,
they don't even know what the chinese common people wishes to eat.
Does he think his restaurant is a museum?
How can normal people appreciate it?
Silver spoon, using his dad's money to achieve his dreams.
He thinks he is all that,
but he really is not.
Hello? Jia Ming?
Hello?
What happened?
Hello?
Taking care of the consequences.
Chef Li, I was talking about my friend earlier,
a good friend.
I am not your friend yet.
To be frank,
although your restaurant lack some humanity, it has good taste.
Restaurants with good taste does not welcome tasteless people.
Are you trying to say restaurants rich people open don't welcome poor people?
In the eyes of people like you, being rich means everything right?
What coming from abroad?
You clearly are a local rich tyrant.
I'm telling you, if it weren't for the television program I wouldn't come find people like you even if I died.
Mr.Li. Miss Song.
What brings you here?
I'm here to thank Mr. Li.
He got me a lawyer for the incident that happened that day,
and explained my situation to the police, asking to lighten the punishment as much as possible.
The firing incident too, he helped me to receive compensation money.
He also helped me find a new job.
It won't be soon until I can earn money again.
Miss Song, you really misunderstood Mr. Li that day.
Why didn't you explain to me before?
I understand, you can return first.
Thank you Mr. Li.
What's our relationship?
Why should I explain to you?
I'm sorry.
I misunderstood you.
about the television show...
If you weren't forced to,
you would never come beg someone like me.
So, I will not appear in this television show.
I hope you will not appear in my field of vision ever again.
Also, my restaurant's style does not match with yours,
It's not matched to serve you.
Who is it?
Who?
Why are you dressed like this?
It's my home, I have the freedom to decide how I should dress.
Chef Li, I hope you can overlook our misunderstanding.
Our program is actually really good,
I just need some of your time so I can introduce it to you.
I have no time to waste with you.
Do you know when to stop?
I can do anything for you.
I am going to shower, can you do that for me?
Then, you can go shower, I wait for you here.
You can wait if you want to,
but the program, I'll definitely not attend.
Let's pretend my skin is made of bullet-proof clothing.
There's got to be a way.
How is that!
I cleaned your room for you, and changed your sheets.
These are the things I can do for you,
and it represents the sincerity of the program team.
First of all, I detest other people touching my things.
Second of all, I detest strangers crossing the line even more.
and no matter what you do for me, I will have no interest in your program.
I'm really sorry!
What's rare about it?
Didn't I just have one look?
You're really magnanimous!
Head Chef Li!
Just you wait. I surely will come back!
Our company currently has four building projects on-going.
We are currently tight on funding.
Your loan credit limit is higher.
Just help a brother on his urgent needs, okay?
Jeez, really so sorry. I also can't help you even if I want to.
Sorry.
Hello.
Husband, Yuxi and I are going back to Shanghai tomorrow.
We will arrive at the airport by 330 pm. Come fetch us.
The company is a bit busy lately.
Just ride a taxi back home.
After separating for so long, don't you want to see and your daughter immediately?
I'm really in a terrible fix lately.
Stop adding to the trouble already, okay?
Hey, I'm hanging up. I need to attend to something.
Chairman Li, I want to ask if I could be absent tomorrow.
My grandmother is coming back tomorrow. Our whole family is going to fetch her.
Do you still need to ask my permission to be absent?
You're saying that Miss Jiang Xiuyun is coming back to the country already?
Yes, her plane will be landing by 330 pm.
Don't worry. I will finish all my work first in the morning before going to the airport.
No need. No need.
The Charwoman of Gooben Corporation, Jiang Xiuyun, is coming back to the country already. That is a huge news in the investment industry.
No need to come to work tomorrow.
Just stay at home and take good care of your grandmother.
Okay then. Thank you, uncle.
I'll go back now.
With a Jiang Xiuyun from Gooben, why must I still beg a bank president Liu?
Please.
How come others can come in except me?
Miss Song, our head chef has instructed that our restaurant has the right to reject guests we don't want to entertain.
Don't make it hard on me already.
With you treating your customers like this, aren't you afraid that I'll post some bad critics about your restaurant?
Head chef said that you won't dare.
I?
I really can't dare to do it.
You're really ruthless.
I am ruthless?
Tell your head chef to see me!
Mister, may I ask what is it that you need?
It's fine for me to spend as much money as needed
as long as the food I eat is delicious.
Yet you guys are just giving me garbage like these to fool me?
Mister, let me just serve you another one.
You go first.
Sorry, Mister, I'll now call our head chef to explain things to you.
- Quickly go. - Okay.
What nonsense is this?!
Miss Song!
Hello, I am the show writer and director of 'A Moment of Delicious Flavors', Song Jiaming.
This is my work ID.
If it is convenient for you, I want to taste the problem with this dish of yours, is that okay?
Reporter, right? Okay. Okay. Hurry.
Take a picture of this thing.
This mister, for this cream of black truffle soup, did you especially request for more black truffles earlier?
Right.
Truffles are expensive so we should add more.
This is not ingredients that have gone bad. It's a taste from too much truffles.
It's too thick that's why it tasted rotten.
Western cuisines are not like hotchpotch where you just put in what you want to eat.
The amount of ingredients in Western cuisines must be exquisitely measured for it to taste good.
It's the fault of their waiters for not explaining this to you. I'll go scold them.
Right...lecture them well. And also, their service attitude.
- Okay. Okay. - Don't be mad anymore. Let's eat.
Miss Song, thank you.
Never thought that you are even half a food expert.
What do you meant by half an expert?
I clearly am a whole expert, okay?
This Li Yuzhe, he didn't even hurry and come out here to thank me for saving his restaurant.
Hey, Miss Song, you cannot go in!
Sorry, Miss Song. Our head chef has already left through the back door earlier.
Someone in your restaurant also like Lucy?
There is. Me.
Everyone quite likes her.
We finally got released.
That's right, mom. So scary.
Brother!
Hey! Yu...
Brother, I just knew that you will always appear in the right time and place.
Oh, my, Yuxi, are you not caring about your mother anymore?
- These are so heavy. - Let me. Let me.
My precious son, mother is back.
I miss you so much.
Really so obedient.
Mom, Yuxi,
No matter how addicted you two are in shopping, you should still leave yourself some leeway.
I know already.
Director Ye!
Hey, Chairman Li, you--
Chairman Li, why are you here?
I am here to express my sincerity towards your grandmother.
For an event like this, it seems to be better if it's just us around.
Grandma!
Mom!
Grandma! You're finally back!
Let me look at you.
You really have become more beautiful.
- I miss you so much. - I also miss you.
Let's go.
Miss Jiang, hello.
Isn't this Jianguo?
How long have we last seen each other?
What a coincidence.
Are you here in the airport to fetch someone or to send someone off?
I especially came to welcome you.
Welcome me?
Yilan is currently working in our company.
My precious granddaughter is in your company?
This is my honor.
What's going on here?
The head of a company fetching the grandmother of his employee?
You are my senior. I should do this.
So thank you.
Such beautiful flowers.
Too bad, I am allergic to flower pollen.
Thank you, Chairman Li.
Let us go then.
Mom, I was afraid that it would be cold here in the airport. Put this on.
Shoal?
The color of this shoal seems to be a bit old-fashioned.
Come, it's fine. It's enough that you have expressed your care.
Don't overthink.
Hey, isn't that husband?!
Such beautiful flowers!
Husband, are those flowers for me?
Hand them to me.
Didn't you say that you won't be coming to fetch me?
So you just wanted to surprise me?
Hey, dad, you really know to be romantic.
- Dad. - Ha?
I remember that you have never fetched mother and little sister before.
What? No need to do overtime in the company today?
There is always a first time for everything.
You're two are back. It's good that you have safely come back.
Let's go.
- Let's go. Let's go home. - Mom, let's go.
Shanghai, I'm here!
Mom, don't worry.
I surely will find father.
In Shanghai, there really are so many rich people.
Wallet?
Wal...
Missing?!
- Brother, mother and I brought a lot this time. - My wallet!
- Look at this. - I lost my stuff!
What's going on? Why is it so messy here?
I lost my stuff!
I lost my wallet. It's gone.
It was still with me when I went down from the plane.
What kind of person is that immoral? Stealing from foreigners.
He surely must be a swindler. Can foreigners speak Chinese?
I...
I am not a swindler.
Good person.
I came to Shanghai to look for my father.
If you don't believe me...
If you don't believe me, let me show you the photos.
Swindlers are exactly like this. Look, he even has props.
He is here today. He surely will still be here tomorrow.
Hey, husband, let me tell you. Doing good is stocking up on good karma.
Our family don't really lack money.
Don't panic.
I'll give you some money.
Forget it. I won't count them anymore.
- Keep them for urgent need. - Stop meddling with other people's business.
I really am not a swindler! This...
- Look at these pictures! - I'm not looking anymore. I believe in you.
Goodbye! Goodbye! We're going now!
Let's go!
Thank you!
Auntie, you are my angel!
No need to thank me. Goodbye! Goodbye!
Angelic auntie, goodbye!
Than you. Goodbye!
Shanghai really has so many rich people.
This is Lucy's last autographed photo!
- Who wants it? - I do! I do!
Bro, just give it to me.
It's fine. It's fine.
Lucy and I see each other everyday. I'll just ask her for more next time.
Hey, right, do you all know why Lucy can still maintain her figure
despite eating a lot everyday?
Why?
Because she...didn't really eat anything. All were just pretend.
My place is not a gossip tea house.
Head chef, the show of Song Jiaming actually is a very good one.
Our restaurant can still benefit from some promotions.
After all, an aromatic wine is still afraid of a deep cellar.
A person who really knows how to appreciate wine scents can smell it no matter how deep the cellar is.
Stop wasting everyone's time.
Must you really push people away from you?
I am not pushing people away.
I am pushing you away.
Aren't you just angry that I saw you naked?!
Must you...
Even if you won't give me a chance, at least give me a reason.
First, I am a head chef that creates cuisnes and not some artists that do shows.
Second, what my restaurant does is high class cuisine.
And your show is totally incompatible with the style of our restaurant.
Thirdly,
you are the endorser of all kinds of trouble.
That's why, stop disturbing my work.
Is that okay?
First, our show is not some pageant. We introduce cuisines to people.
Second, you haven't watched our show so make rash conclusions.
Third, as long as you agree to appear in our show, I guarantee that I will not disturb you again.
Is that okay?!
No way.
A person who doesn't understand cuisines has no right to discuss such topic with me.
How did you know that I don't understand cuisines?
What are you doing?
Whether you know cuisines or not, we will know just by testing it.
Stay here. Don't move.
Don't worry.
It surely has no poison.
It has the three aspects of color, aroma, and taste. The fire intensity and the cooking time is also just right.
So you're not just pretending.
You better make clear of things. The one who needs to prove that he is not just pretending is not me. It's you.
This lobster soup is a recipe that I just came up with a few days ago.
If you are able to identify the 10 ingredients of this lobster soup dish within 24 hours, then it proves that you are a person that knows cuisines.
I will reconsider our collaboration.
Okay. It's a deal.
Hey, wait!
You should at least give me one more bowl to taste it.
One also needs some raw material in drawing.
I will provide you as many bowls as you want.
But remember, lobsters are very expensive.
I don't plan to just casually waste them.
No matter how many you drink, please pay for it later.
Yixuan.
Yixuan!
Mom, I still haven't saved it!
Save? What are you saving?
I think you are doing this deliberately.
Playing games everyday.
Okay already. Take this.
Didn't your grandma come home today?
Later, bring this gift to see her.
Grandma is family. Why must I still give her gifts?
So fake.
Say, can you bit more sensible?
Don't you know how to amuse her?
Okay already. Just treat it as acting.
Mom, acting is very tiring.
And also, my acting skills are bad. I am unable to focus.
Doing what is not tiring?
Let me tell you. This is a ginseng that I especially asked someone to buy.
Later, just say that you bought it yourself.
Whether you can enter the company or not depends on your grandma's mood.
Be good.
You are not allowed to play games anymore!
Clean up your room.
Boss, we don't have any soup anymore.
Say...
Then go cook some more.
Wait!
My whole stomach now has been cleansed.
I want to eat some other food.
One that can make me full.
We still have buns left in our employee meal for today.
- Sure! - Not good.
All other food can affect how one's tongue determine taste.
This is also to ensure that you can successfully fulfill this mission of yours.
Miss Song, you won't blame me, right?
I won't.
Boss, after the cleaning service cleaned up your room earlier,
they placed all those ingredients to the stockroom already.
Okay.
Isn't it just a recipe book?
As if it is some precious rare secret dish.
The electricity has stopped?
What you are doing is cheating.
You didn't say that I cannot use improper means.
I am just...using a curved method to save the country.
Looks like Miss Song not only lacks the ability,
even your character is poor.
This gambling bet ends here.
Hey, wait!
Be careful!
Sorry. Sorry.
What's wrong with you? Are you alright?
Stomach ache. This is already a chronic illness of mine.
It will be gone in a while.
Give me your hand.
Are you still afraid that I will take advantage of you?
Before, when my father would have stomach aches, he would tell me to press here.
This is connected with the stomach. It's very effective.
Boss, aren't you two being too intense?
Go home. Go home.
I'll continue drinking the soup then.
Jiaming, why did you come here?
Cheating?
Who said that she's cheating?
Actually, I saw that the stockroom is too messy.
That's why, I told her to come here to clean it up.
Then...must I continue to drink it?
No need.
Go back home first.
Just tell me about it tomorrow and let's see if your guesses will be right.
So great!
Master Head Chef, so conscientious.
Whether I have a conscience or not,
we better just wait for tomorrow first and see if you can guess them right.
A'Cong.
Where are the buns that you said earlier?
Look. This is a massage pillow that I especially bought for you.
It has an automatic memory function. It's very good for cervical spondylosis (neck spine pains).
Oh, my, my precious granddaughter, it's still you who is the most filial.
You still remember my chronic illness.
Mother, Yixuan also prepared a gift for you.
Yixuan.
He also graduated from college this year.
He is also an adult already.
He keeps saying that he wants to go to the company to help you.
Really?
You also prepared a gift for me?
- Grandma, some ginseng. - Thank you.
What is this?
This is also a gift?
Yixuan.
This is your gift, you kid.
Mom, Yixuan isn't usually like this.
He is very obedient.
Right, I know.
This is a very exquisite good ginseng.
He really is really such a good kid.
But you said earlier that he wants to enter the company?
Think for him first.
A child who doesn't follow rules and is very unreliable,
you want him to enter the company? If he enters the company, won't he destroy it?
Am I right?
How about...
Changhai, I remember that there are lot of rentals that we still have to collect.
Then give him this task then.
Mom! What kind of work is that?
Isn't that too--
If he is unable to handle such a small matter,
being unable to collect just some rentals,
do you plan to enter Gooben and just be its chairman?
Hurry and go.
Yes, grandma.
Okay already. Just leave it like this.
You two go down the basement and look for that chair.
Okay. We will go now.
Mom, sit here for a while.
Let's go.
I really am very worried.
Worried about that little brother of yours. He grew up to be so tall
but how come he is so unreliable when handling matters?
Grandma, don't be angry.
Actually, for so many years, mother also didn't had it easy.
She raised both me and Yixuan and she has always treated me very well.
Lanlan, don't easily trust your mother.
A stomach full of tricks and schemes.
Let me be frank with you.
If not because I considered the fact that she was already pregnant with Yixuan that time,
how could I have let her enter the doors of the Ye family?
Remember.
In this house, only your grandma and your father is your closest family.
You...are you a human or a ghost?!
I am not a beggar. My name is Kunjin, a Thai.
You're talking ghost language! From where did a ghost like you come from?!
I am not a ghost.
What I mean is so sorry.
Did I scare you?
You did!
Hello.
My name is Kunjin. I came from Thailand.
I came here to Shanghai to look for my father.
If you want to fool people, be more professional.
A Thai like you came here to China, to Shanghai to look for you father?!
My father is from Shanghai.
When I went down the plane today,
my wallet was gone. I lost it.
And then, I got on the wrong ride and ended up here.
I also have spent all the ¥500 that a goodhearted person gave me.
Right now, I am very hungry.
Can you spare me some food?
I have no time to waste with you!
Don't steal my bed!
Don't take it!
Are you cursing me?!
What curse...
Don't take it...
This is my bed! Don't steal it!
Let go!
- My bed, don't steal it! - What's going on?
Bun?
How did you end up here?
My mother told me
that my father is actually from Shanghai.
His name is A'Guo.
My name is Kunjin.
In Thai, it means China.
Such a good name.
But if you are going to look for your father just using a photograph like this, it would be very hard.
And also, just wandering on the streets like this is also not good.
My mother got sick.
Before she left, she told me to come to Shanghai to look for my father.
In the airport, I lost my wallet.
I lost all my money.
I don't have any place to live in.
This kid is so pitiful.
He is not pitiful. You two are the ones that are pitiful.
You really are listening to his nonsense.
It's all because people like you indulge swindlers like him.
Auntie Wu, I feel that he doesn't look like a swindler.
He exactly has a liar's face.
Cold-blooded.
Auntie Wu, how much will you rent a room for him?
At the very least, ¥1,000,
one month deposit and one month advance.
We will never fold our hands and just watch when someone needs our help.
This is ¥3,000. We are paying 1 month deposit and 2 months advance.
Sure. If you dare to give it, I will dare to rent it out.
But this does not include water and electricity.
You must not use appliances or gadgets with high electrical requirement. You are not allowed to use the bathroom.
If you are going to use one, use the public bathroom.
Thank you! Thank you!
You are too open!
Two more stupid people got fooled.
I am too happy! So excited!
- I don't know how to thank you two. - Okay already. No need to thank us.
Eat. Eat.
Jiaming, you are also tired from working all day.
Eat some night snacks.
I cooked you soup.
I don't want it!
I don't want to drink one more drop of soup in this lifetime.
There is actually a person who dared to make you suffer like that?
That's right!
Isn't he just a guest? He treats himself like an emperor
or some overbearing CEO.
Just looking at his face and I already felt the need to wear a wool jacket.
No matter how good that guest is,
he won't be able to defeat my daughter. Am I right?
Have you already answered his question or not?
I am your daughter!
Will such a question even be hard for me?
I have more or less already guessed those 10 ingredients.
There is just one left that seems to be a kind of spices that I can't identify.
This Li Yuzhe thinks that the whole world must rotate around him.
As if everyone's taste is also like his.
Isn't it just a soup?
Whether it's delicious or not, it will all just get flushed down the toilet.
Is it really that important if you put in a banana or an apple?
That's not right anymore.
Soup is the leader among hundreds of tastes.
It can open the sense of taste of a person.
It can even increase the experience of the whole meal.
Each ingredient is very important.
Dad, which side are you really with?
Of course, with my daughter.
Drink some water. Drink some water.
Come.
Come. Come. Sit here.
Let me tell you about basic spices knowledge.
Actually, in China, we've already discovered about these spices since Shen Nong (Divine Farmer) tasted hundreds of plants.
Spices not only can protect against sickness and evil.
It can even be added to food.
In our life, there are a lot of things like ginger and pepper
which are all considered to be spices.
And the pairing of spices with other food ingredients is also a very particular matter.
For example, if you are going to make a meat dish,
you should put some nutmeg.
It can remove the stinky smell of the meat, improve one's appetite,
and can cure diarrhea and vomiting.
If you add a few pepper in it, it can help you cure body coldness.
If you add some fenel,
not only will it help improve digestion, it even has anti-cancer potential.
Each ingredient is very important.
Dad! You really are my luck star.
I finally have an inspiration.
Here, your reward.
What is it? Your stomach is aching again?
Isn't it you didn't have an attack for a long time already?
This is an occupational illness of chefs. We don't usually eat on time.
Dad, rest early first.
I'll try to study it further based on what you said.
Okay.
- You also should sleep early. - Okay.
What? Has it started?
Don't know if she would get it right.
Are you sure that you are ready?
Of course.
Start choosing.
The lobster as the main ingredient is surely part of it.
Other than that,
I also tasted lemon, avocado, and potato.
Other than the texture of pureed carrots, there is also the aromatic scent of white grape wine and the richness of butter.
And also textures of boiled mushroom and black pepper.
So great.
Boss, she has already chose nine of them.
She surely can win already, right?
Even if she just choose the last one wrongly, all her previous right answers won't count.
