" Our Glamourous Time "
Episode 8
This restaurant is quite famous around here.
And the environment is good too.
I used to eat here often.
Brother, what happened? Why did you ask me out today?
Nothing happened. I just want to eat with you.
How's father?
He's doing quite well. Ever since you came back,
his state of mind has improved a lot.
And he goes to the company every day.
Come.
Why did you look so tired recently?
I'm quite busy these few days.
I've been working through the night to complete my design.
Suddenly, I feel like I've gone back to my university time.
I still remember that during my university time,
we squeezed inside a small room...
and designed every day.
But now that I thought of it, it was quite a happy time.
Design is to be made with like-minded people.
Or else, it's quite frustrating if they can't understand you.
But senior, you are different now.
You are not a designer. Now, you are a big boss.
A lot of students from our school admire you so.
Don't call me big boss.
I'll always be your senior.
Your best partner once upon a time.
I hope that this will never change.
Chen Zheng is your friend?
He's my classmate.
Actually, he's quite good.
Don't get fooled by his outer appearance.
You need to be careful while making friends.
Brother.
In your eyes, Chen Zheng is a Casanova.
Look at me.
I'm just a spoiled brat too.
If not, why wouldn't you let me be involved with the company?
I am your sister.
I'm responsible for the company too.
There are some things that I don't wish to drag you into.
So you drew a circle.
And I can only move within this circle.
Brother. I hope that you won't be like father.
I don't want you to make decision for my life.
Thank you for your lunch.
But I think Li Zhi Cheng is quite cunning.
- You are working in his company. - Senior.
Let's not talk about work.
He is my boss right now.
I know nothing about your business.
And it's inappropriate for me to give any comments.
I can only focus on designing.
You are right.
Actually, I have always wanted too focus only on designing.
But ever since I stepped out from the Alma mater,
everything changed.
Let me tell you something interesting.
What kind of interesting things?
Our company is doing an army training right now.
Army training?
Li Zhi Cheng was a soldier, right? The workers in our company...
are dragged out to have a morning run with him every day.
I've been avoiding it.
Interesting.
I try to avoid it in any way that I can.
Director Li.
Lin Qian is mine for the time being.
Please stay away from her.
Director Li, we are not done with the food yet.
Don't tell me that your workers don't have any rest time.
It's already two o'clock. It's Lin Qian's working hour now.
Let's go.
Senior, I'll be leaving then.
You can't be like this, Director Li.
Can't I have a meal my senior?
I just know that during the contract period,
all of your working time is bought by me.
Director Li, I'm a designer.
I work at night. And I rest in the morning.
We signed a contract.
Not a slave contract.
Just put it here.
Alright.
Director Gu, this is...
This is the workers' welfare.
What is it? You want to recline the chair?
Go back earlier and have a good rest.
This development is too fast.
This is a good thing.
How close is he with you?
This close?
Or...
This close.
So close?
Don't tell me you believe that. It's just an accident.
Accident?
All of these accidents are arranged by God.
Nobody but you has this kind of experience.
Why didn't I get to...
experience this kind of workers' welfare?
Why didn't I get to experience...
that kind of accident where the overbearing CEO fell in love with me?
If you don't finish your noodles and start working soon,
you are going to be fired by an overbearing CEO.
Aren't you attracted to Li Zhi Cheng even just a little bit?
A little bit?
No.
You are cold-blooded and heartless.
You are cold-blooded, heartless and troublesome.
I am a principled person.
Office love is a big fat cross.
But for me, to be able to stick to your husband for 24 hours a day...
is exceptionally sweet.
Stick together for 24 hours a day...
sounds scary.
It's not scary.
Being able to stick together for 24 hours a day...
is so sweet, happy and exciting.
Sweet?
It sounds...
so cheesy.
But this is the kind of happy life that I want.
That's what I think and I can say whatever I like.
Let's just eat and shit together.
So annoying.
Lin Qian, the seam-sealing rubber sample is here.
Thank you.
Finish your noodles first before you look. Later the oil drops on it.
I don't want to look.
The smell is overpowering the fragrance of my noodles.
Are they tested?
These are just some data of the samples.
We haven't test whether or not they are up to our standard.
I think I need to personally check them.
Let me go.
The final draft for that new design has yet to be completed.
Let me go.
I'll call you when the test result is out.
Eat your noodles, I'm done eating. I've prepared it for you.
Bye.
Alright.
I'll inform you when it's done.
It's fine. I'll wait here.
If there is any changes, I'll know right away.
Still have 10 hours, a long away to go.
You can't sleep here too because it's too noisy.
Then, look, there's a chair here.
I'm a heavy sleeper. I can sleep on a chair.
I need to report the data to Qian Qian.
Continue with your work. I won't disturb you.
You are quite determined.
- Alright, stay here. - Thank you.
- Hello. - Hello, Qian Qian.
- Come in. - Director Li.
I've asked Ai Di to improve the caulking process.
Now, that sample has passed the water pressure test.
- What's the lab result? - Zero seepage in 10 hours.
- How did you test it? - Rain-room test.
We put the sample under flowing water for 10 hours.
The result is up to standard.
Alright.
Had someone worn it for a 10 hours experiment?
No, we did not conduct that kind of experiment.
I used to carry sandbag up a huge dam.
The few hours are fine.
But after that,
the water started to seep in with varying degrees.
You can't just do an experiment in a lab.
Then where should we do it?
Are you crazy? Why did you go to the riverside in this kind of weather?
Orange warning has lit up for today's rainstorm.
I'm not trying to get drenched. I'm testing out the sample.
Director Li said that he needs someone...
to test it out in real-life situation so that we can see the real flaw.
Director Li is too cruel.
Because of his one sentence, you went to the riverside to get wet.
How can he be so tough with a woman?
I still thought that he's a gentle overbearing CEO. I'll scold him.
I think he's right.
The results from the movements of real people...
are going to be more accurate than using dummy in the lab.
The rain is so heavy. Quickly go back.
What if you fall sick?
I have to hang up.
The thunder is coming. I'll hang up first.
- Director Li. - Why are you here?
You said that...
the results are more accurate...
if real people wear it and move around to test it?
That's not your job.
Your body is weak. Quickly go back to rest.
What if you catch a cold?
This is my design. I'll take the responsibility.
Have you ever seen any emergency workers that walk slowly like that?
Go back!
Wait for me, Director Li.
Director Li!
Quickly.
Quick.
Hold it tight.
Quick.
Boss, I've gotten it.
This is the pinned location.
Alright. I get it.
Why didn't you run today?
Director Li didn't check in today.
Why would we run if he's not here?
That's right. I hope that...
Director Li can be late every day.
So that I don't need...
to act like I have a bad leg.
You scared me. Director Gu, did you see Director Li?
I'm looking for him too.
He didn't answer my call. We have loads of documents for him to sign.
Then do you know whether or not he's in his house?
He's not staying with his father and sister.
Lin Qian, inform me immediately when you know his whereabouts.
Director Li.
What happened to you. You've laid here overnight?
Get up. You'll be sick.
After the run, there is seepage around the limb joints.
Seepage around the limb joints.
Looks like your experiment has it's benefits.
Lin Qian.
Where were you in 2006?
I was a secondary school student in 2006.
Form 2.
I just joined the army at that time. During the flood in summer,
our troops are stationed in the Yangtze River Basin of Linhai City.
The flood lasted for 38 days.
The clothes that we were wearing were drenched for 38 days.
Every day, we sat in the rain water and ate instant noodles.
We can sleep anywhere...
on that dam.
I have a comrade. His surname is Zhou.
We called him Old Man Zhou.
During the 38-days flood,
he caught a cold and had fever.
Our commander advise him to go back and rest.
But he always said that there are not enough front-liners.
Old Man Zhou, go and rest.
I'm not going to rest. We are short-handed.
Let's continue.
Three days later, a dangerous situation happened in the dam.
We jumped into the river together. And then,
he was washed away by flood...
because he ran out of energy.
I'm the one who passed on the news of his death.
He has a five-year-old son.
When he knew that his father was sacrificed,
he didn't cry or acted out.
He just tugged on my shirt and asked me...
how long does his father need to sacrifice before he can come back.
Lin Qian.
The turnout jacket that I want...
is a jacket that can protect those who use their lives to protect others.
Understand?
I understand.
I'll solve the problem when I go back.
Let's go.
How long do we have to wait?
Three minutes.
Ya Yi.
Do you still remember the major flood...
that happened in Linhai city in 2006?
2006?
I just have a vague memory about it.
Why is it?
I remember it quite clearly.
During that time, I remember looking at those...
soldiers from the television.
Their skins became...
white and wrinkly because they were submerged in the water for too long.
While we were eating instant noodles...
and sitting comfortably inside our houses.
But those rescuers out there...
are eating noodles soaked with rainwater every day.
Aren't we considered very happy compared to them?
Stop. You must have been brainwashed by Director Li.
We are not soldiers.
Why would we compare ourselves with them?
Without them,
we wouldn't be sitting comfortably here with air conditioner...
while watching our idol dramas in our room.
Actually, there's no such thing as comfortable life.
It's just that somebody else has carried the burden for us.
It's quite poetic.
If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't notice it.
That's why...
I've specially designed a turnover jacket...
with huge hat brim. How is it?
So that from now on, they won't have to eat...
food that is soaked with rainwater.
So considerate.
Qian Qian.
How can you be so attuned to it?
I've immersed myself in Baidu every day...
and did a lot of research.
But I'm still not as detailed are you are.
Actually...
Actually,
this is not my idea wholly.
It's because of Director Li.
He used to fight against flood when he was a soldier.
Although he knows nothing about clothes, he knows...
the things that are needed most by those rescuers.
They risked their lives to protect us.
Then someone should fulfil their needs too.
Qian Qian.
If you something is troubling you,
you can tell me.
Just...
It's time to get off work. Why are you still here?
I have to look out for you.
You are so stressed.
Find something to do if you are free.
Don't just shop online.
The best way to release stress is to look at my shopping cart.
And when I see my shopping cart,
I feel like I need to work harder, right?
Look.
Is this dress nice?
Do I look good in a solid cut piece?
Solid cut.
Before this, in order to maintain the range of movement,
I've used a solid cut on the sutures of some key parts.
But seam-sealing rubber is two dimensional.
So, the seam-sealing rubber and the sutures...
are not attached closely hence the seepage.
Are you bewitched?
We can use a solid cut on the seam-sealing rubber too.
Eureka. That's the solution.
I have to start working.
Alright. I know you are going to work overtime again.
Lin Qian, the turnout jacket that I want...
is a jacket that can protect those who use their lives to protect others.
Understand?
Lin Qian.
Stop your work immediately.
Why do you always ask me to stop working?
Who is going to work then?
I still need to hand in the design draft.
You are the core of this Ai Da's project.
For Ai Da, you have to stop working immediately.
- I already have an idea. Tomorrow... - No.
Haven't you notice your serious panda eyes?
I have a pimple.
Director Li. I still feel like I should finish my work first.
You are too tense now.
You need to relax.
Working blindly might leads to counter-productive work.
It's really fragrance.
You are so good, Director Li. You can even cook a hotpot.
I was in the army.
Making food is basic survival skill.
I can't drink spirits.
I'm sorry. We always drink spirits when I was in the army.
I've gotten used to it.
Drink a bit. You are too tense.
You are too stressed. Relax.
No. It's better if I don't drink.
Are you afraid that if you drink too much,
you'll say something inappropriate to your boss?
Of course not.
Why did you hire me?
Is it because I graduated from renown university?
Although University of York is good,
you are not the only graduates.
Then is it because...
when that old man tried to jump off the building,
I've boldly stopped him?
If can handle it better if you weren't there.
You are so snobbish.
I hire you because from the first time I saw you,
you are like a nine-five automatic rifle.
High precision, low cost and very lethal.
You are saying that I'm good but cheap...
and big impact?
Are you complimenting me?
Most importantly, it is very reliable.
I can rely on it and trust it in the battlefield.
Thank you for your high appraisal, Director Li.
I'll drink to you.
I need some sauce. The hotpot is so spicy.
Give me more.
It's done.
Keep it under running water for 5 minutes.
You are going to get drunk if you continue. Stop drinking.
I feel very comfortable after I drink it.
Have you read about a comic?
You never read it right? Let me tell you.
There is a designer...
standing at the edge of a cliff.
Below him stood a bunch of investors.
Group A is full of bosses.
They shouted to the designer from below.
Come down!
We swear that we won't make any changes anymore.
The designer shouted back to them.
You need to write a pledge.
Director Li.
So you want me to write a pledge?
You laughed.
Our Director Li...
who is always wearing a long face has laughed.
Actually, when you laugh, you look...
quite cute.
I think you are a very weird person.
You never think twice when you do something.
You never care about other people's feelings.
You never talk more than necessary.
You never explain yourself.
I think you have...
this kind of energy...
that does not exist on others.
What is it called?
Lone warrior.
Yes, lone warrior.
You are quite determined.
You'll go through with your decision.
And nobody can sway you.
This attitude is exceptionally cute.
But it's quite detestable too.
But it's quite admirable too.
Slowly.
I've reached my home.
What is it?
Why would we have this in our house?
Who are you?
Get out!
Or else I'll spray you with this.
Leave!
Pull back!
Are you sure you never offend anybody?
Or have conflicts with anybody?
I go to work just like any normal person.
I don't recall offending anybody.
Then are you sure you didn't lose any valuable things?
I think so.
Then did you see them...
carrying any weapons?
Yes.
They are carrying Tibetan daggers that are controlled weapons.
The angle of the tip is less than 60 degrees.
We are done collecting evidence.
Alright.
As long as nothing is lost and nobody is harmed.
Tomorrow, both of you have to come to our station to do a record.
Alright. We'll wait for your notice then.
- Alright, thank you. - Sure. Let's go.
Thank you.
Lin Qian.
Help me with something.
- What is it? - Send me back to the company.
You look pale. What happened?
I sustained a minor injury.
You are bleeding a lot. This is not minor injury.
Let me send you to the hospital.
I won't go the hospital. I'm fine.
Just send me back to the company.
Really no need to send him to the hospital?
No need. I can manage.
Why are you making a fuss over this kind of wound?
We can manage a minor wound like this by ourselves.
Enough. You stitches are crooked.
- Alright, you can rest. - Let me patch you up.
Alright, go and rest.
- Let me help. - It's alright, let me.
- Rest. - Alright.
Lin Qian, you too.
I...
I want to ask you something.
What is it?
The one who saved me in Yunnan,
is it you?
Let me ask you. You know it's me since the beginning?
Why don't you tell me earlier?
I'm also puzzled that you are so bad in recognising people.
You can't recognise me without the camouflage.
We were in a bone-rattling situation.
But you can't just hide the truth from me.
Look at my attitude towards you before this.
I...
Don't take it to heart.
How can I not take it to heart?
Most importantly,
I almost lost the chance to thank you properly.
I already said, don't take it to heart.
You've been staying here all along?
You don't have anybody to take care of you.
It's near to the company. Easier for me to go to work.
Lin Qian.
I'm sleepy. Quickly, go back.
By the way,
I've asked somebody to investigate about it.
Stay here today.
Don't go back. Safety first.
There's a spare room next door. Stay there for the moment.
Wasp, any signal?
Alright, I understand.
There are a lot of blind spots in your community.
And the three entrances...
are always without any security guards.
And the guarded entrance is broken.
That means, the security in your community is close to none.
Stay here until the police solved this case.
Wasp and Monkey can help you too.
The living condition is not that good.
But it's safe.
You won't mind, right?
I...
