" Our Glamourous Time "
Episode 27
While you were gone,
I am scared that I might lose you for good.
I tried very hard to make myself finish the contest.
But all I can think about is you.
If anything happens or you face any danger again,
you must let me know.
I am not afraid of danger.
I am afraid of the world without you.
Do you remember what I told you before?
You are the comrade that will have my back.
Do you know the gravity of those words?
In my heart,
you are just as important.
That lousy Ning Wei Kai.
He actually brought himself an upswing from the contest.
What is Ning Wei Kai doing now?
Nothing for the time being.
Ning Wei Kai is a crafty man.
We need to be one step ahead of him.
Contact Miss Cai, I want to see her now.
Understood.
A nobody with some fame...
is still a nobody.
Ning Wei Kai.
Let's see how you turn the tide this time.
Miss Cai, this is the most famous green tea they have.
- Try it out. - Sure.
Mr. Ning.
You are now a celebrity of the fashion world.
You invited me for a cup of tea,
I am very surprised.
Please, Miss Cai.
I am no longer in Xin Bao Rui.
I am but a nobody.
What else can I possibly do aside from having a cup of tea?
Mr. Ning, the tea seems rather unusual for our tastes.
So Miss Cai, have you noticed anything unusual about the tea?
I can sense your great ambition to return to Xin Bao Rui.
Miss Cai.
We have known each other for so long.
- No password, thank you. - I will be honest with you.
I'll get straight to the point.
What ever Zhu Han Chong can offer you,
I will give you more.
I really hope you can help me out this time.
Mr. Ning, pardon my ignorance.
I am a mere reporter. I am not a businessman.
What I pursue is the truth in front of me.
I don't have a grand vision like you do.
Okay. Thank you for the tea.
I must take my leave now.
Very well, since you are too busy,
I won't make you stay.
I hope we can have a cup of tea together someday.
What does she mean?
It seems like our offer...
doesn't pick her interest.
What should we do now?
Tell me, any place you wish to go? I will bring you to have fun.
Brother, the girl from the karaoke is not bad.
Great idea. Let's go.
Sister?
Where are you now?
I am going to have some fun.
Come home now. Father has questions for you.
What's wrong, sister? What is going on?
How is father now?
Stop asking and come home now!
Let him be if he won't come back! Let him die out there!
Take it as I never had a son!
Father!
Father.
Calm down.
- Get off the car. - What's wrong?
I am giving you a day off.
Be nice later, okay? Don't make him mad.
I don't know what is going on.
Father.
Explain yourself.
Name a price.
Can you make all the scoops you have...
go viral?
That depends on how much you are paying.
You are a businessman. You get what you pay.
I don't think I need to explain any further.
Very well, I always like to make a deal with a classy person.
Father, where did you get these photos?
I must find this man. He is trying to frame me!
Do you think finding the man who exposed the truth...
will cut off all loose ends?
Then why is this still here?
But, this name list was...
How dare you mention the name list!
I have told you before.
They are those who fought along my side!
Without them, we wouldn't have come this far!
We cannot be ingrates!
You have grown arrogant! There is nothing you wouldn't do!
Why don't you write my name into it as well?
Why don't you chase me out of the company too?
Han Chong, you have made father mad again.
Apologize now.
I didn't do anything wrong.
You brazen kid!
To go against Ning Wei Kai,
you bought off the reporters and exposed his past!
With that done, you have ruined Xin Bao Rui!
- How foolish can you be? - Father, you are the foolish one.
Why should we let an outsider run our family business?
What if he takes Xin Bao Rui away from us one day?
You!
Han Chong, that's enough.
Fine, I will say no more.
But father, if you let Ning Wei Kai come back,
that would be a slap in the face of our family.
Do you want to make me a laughing stock?
Listen closely.
From now on, I want you to...
stop intervene with the business of Xin Bao Rui.
Come in.
- Chairman. - Wei Kai?
You are here.
Come in. Have a seat.
Help yourself.
Have a seat.
All these while,
I am sure what happened to Xin Bao Rui...
were passed to your ears as well.
I am old.
I can no longer run the company while attend to every little detail.
So,
I hope you can come back.
Thank you, Chairman.
Even until now,
you still see me as one of your own.
Whether in the past or the present,
I have never seen you as an outsider.
Right now in the company,
there are many works...
that we need you to get them done.
Han Chong may be my son,
but whatever he did...
was not my decision.
A young man with ambition.
That is not a problem.
Just as long as he doesn't bring any harm to the company.
Han Chong's wrong-doings...
had let you suffer quite a lot.
If this is the reason why...
you won't come back,
then my teachings for you were all in vain.
Chairman.
Your worry is unnecessary.
You value me so much.
I will never forget your kindness.
I also know Xin Bao Rui is part of Zhu Corporation.
I never forgot about this.
So,
I just want to do my job. As for other matters,
they never even crossed my mind.
I think President Zhu...
has some misconceptions about me.
Don't worry about that.
If you come back,
I will grant you the greatest degree of freedom.
Mr. Li, it's been a while.
Have a seat.
Mr. Ning, you asked me here...
just for some formalities?
We have been fighting for so long.
I will be frank with you.
I ask you here today...
to talk about the bet we had that day.
You fulfilled you promise and withdrew from the fashion business.
Yes. I lost and I quitted.
But I am sure you know very well...
that Ai Da won that day because of the bad weather.
If it wasn't for the rain that day,
I believe the outcome...
would have been different.
Victor cares only for the outcome.
Only a loser will cling onto the process.
Mr. Ning, I am sure you know how the business world works.
But I was curious.
Why was the warehouse of Xin Bao Rui...
suddenly flooded by water?
As for the cause,
I think you know better than anyone.
Mr. Ning,
are you threatening me?
Don't worry.
I am not here to threaten you.
Just like what I told you,
I came for the bet we had.
Ever since I came to Xin Bao Rui,
I lead all my comrades through so many battles.
But after I left,
I witness Xin Bao Rui turned for the worse.
I simply can't swallow this down.
Besides, Chairman Zhu wishes for me to come back.
He is my benefactor.
I have no reason to refuse his offer.
As for the incident of the warehouse,
I will just let it pass.
I hope you can take back the bet for the time being.
We are rivals on the fashion business for such a long time.
Without me,
you wouldn't have any fun at all.
Okay.
I will do it.
Rest assured,
I will owe you for this favour.
If there is a chance one day,
I will repay you.
This way.
Come.
Thank you.
Why did you act all serious and ask me out for dinner?
If there is no reason, I am leaving.
No, there is a reason.
This dinner is mainly to celebrate...
your great performance at the contest.
That is a sound reason.
Dig in.
You are not eating?
Sure.
Jin Yuan.
About what happened at the back stage,
it was my mistake to choose the wrong time.
But I really do like you.
I can wait.
You still want me to say it out loud.
I hope you can stop waiting for me.
Why?
You are waiting for a decision from someone who can't decide.
Aren't you tired of this?
Jin Yuan,
how long do you plan to run away?
I am...
I am not running away, I just wanted...
to start a job properly.
If I get into a relationship,
you know I won't be able to...
focus on the career.
Okay.
I won't force you anymore.
Dig in.
Hello?
There is a celebration party. Lin Qian and I will be there. Are you coming?
I forgot to tell you. I am not feeling well.
I want to rest for a couple of days.
Jin Yuan didn't pay you a visit?
Now that I think about it,
perhaps I was being too hasty this time.
It will be awkward if she sees me.
Very well, take care of yourself.
You are a gentleman on the outside,
but you are full of vile tricks.
I got the influence from you.
What?
You said I gave you the influence.
I am giving you something else. You look dashing.
Next, turn your attention to the screen.
Let us have a recap of the greatest moments in this contest.
Very well, a round of applause to welcome...
the winner of the Fashion Star Contest,
Mr. Ning Wei Kai to the stage.
Thank you.
Mr. Ning, is there anything you wish to tell us?
I am grateful for your support.
It is also my honour to have won this contest.
Never forget why you started out on this path.
This is something everyone has heard of.
But to actually do it,
it can prove to be very hard.
I was once a designer too.
But I changed my career to become a businessman.
I often forgot about the dream I started out for.
Until one day,
someone wore the dress I designed,
yet she had no idea that was my design at all.
So, she said to me with pride that...
the dress she was wearing...
came from someone with great skills, someone that is unique.
And a designer born with boundless creativity...
and a man who only runs business...
are two completely different people.
After hearing what she said,
I was totally speechless.
Her words are very motivational.
She made me realize that no matter what it is,
never forget why we started out on this path.
He won the contest because you left.
The result doesn't matter.
Compared to this, I got something even more precious.
The dress designed by Miss Lin Qian is outstanding.
After the discussion from organizers and judges,
they will make an exception and feature it...
in the collection magazine along with Mr. Ning Wei Kai's design.
You deserve this.
Congratulation.
- Thank you. - You are not eating?
I don't really like these things.
I am restraining myself.
Sometimes, I will have a sneak bite for myself.
Excuse me, can I borrow her for a few minutes?
Sure.
- Excuse me. - It's okay.
If you are here to to thank me,
that won't be necessary.
You won the contest because all the judges voted for you.
It was not my decision alone.
I do want to thank you. But not because of this.
I am here about Miss Cai.
What's wrong?
This is strange. Miss Cai replied my message.
She agrees to help me.
Very well, I always like to make a deal with a classy person.
Send me the credit card number later.
Okay, it's a pleasure working with you.
Likewise. This way, please.
After you got the photos,
send them to Han Jing and Chairman at once.
Okay.
Miss Cai?
What does that mean?
Just admit you are nice to me.
Is it really so hard?
I heard you are very close with President Zhu.
We only meet because of work.
Why the sudden interest in this?
No secret can hide forever,
especially someone with our professions.
There are indeed many hidden rules,
but you must know the limits.
Not only will you not get a coin,
you might even be kicked aside.
That would be very awkward.
You are a smart girl. As for what I meant,
I think you will understand.
It's just a small favour.
I never thought Miss Cai is such a big-mouth.
You are wrong about her.
She didn't say anything.
You tricked me again.
I am not tricking you.
I am sure it was you.
When she told me not to mention to anyone,
I knew it was you.
Because,
the only person who won't admit she is nice to me...
is you.
Long time no see. You are getting prettier.
Foods!
I knew you would come for me tonight.
Boys!
My dress!
I am sorry! I didn't mean it!
Well, it's all over my dress.
How are you going to clean this up?
Well...
How about this? If you want to,
you can have my dress for the time being.
You are wearing a child's dress.
Let me see that.
- I am so sorry. - Don't touch me.
After the ball is over,
- I'll take it to a laundry shop. - Mr. Chen.
What's wrong, Chen Ya Yi? You made a mess again?
Mind you own business, get lost.
I am trying to help.
Look at you. You are so sloppy.
Your champagne spill on her and the colours are fading.
Mr. Chen, this dress is a premium.
Why would the colours fade?
Premium? If I remember correctly,
this dress is a limited edition world-wide.
Only one unit was sold in the whole China last month, right?
Coincidently, I bought the dress.
I don't remember giving it to you.
What? Don't cry! I hate to see a lady cry.
The make-up will melt if you cry. There is no camera here,
you can drop the act now.
- Miss, I am so... - Come back.
You were so mean!
She is a lady after all. Show some respect for her.
I was kind enough to help and you are complaining...
instead of thanking me?
Did I ask for you help?
Petty people and ladies are hard to care for.
Yes, I am petty. I am wearing a child's dress.
Besides, I didn't ask for you to care for me.
Big-headed fool!
Clean your nose!
Jin Yuan.
I didn't call you because I don't want to bother you.
But I know you can understand.
I am serious about my feelings for you.
I...
I think I should just leave this matter aside for now.
I know you have your own plans.
Very well.
I won't bother you again.
- Look. - What?
Have a guess. What will happen next?
Someone as vile as you would hope for him to fail.
I want him to succeed.
But he just can't make it.
Either the way, I think Mr. Gu is one of a kind.
When will someone like him...
finally come into my life?
It's not that he isn't here. You are just too blind to see.
The good man is closer than you think.
Is that so?
Where is he now?
Stop blocking my view.
I had a little drink just now.
My head is dizzy.
I must go back and get some rest.
Look, there are so many cities in this world,
and even more pubs in them,
but she went into his pub.
Sometimes, we can't help but believe that fate brought us together.
It's just like how I met you.
But she is right in front of her.
He let the chance slip by.
It's a pity he didn't hold onto her.
If I were him, I will never let my girl leave.
Can you tell me why did he leave?
I think Rick has his own business.
Just like the time I went to save my brothers, he had to leave.
Protecting my brothers is my responsibility.
I can relate to that.
If it were up to me, I would let you go too.
But here is the question.
Will you leave and never come back just like him?
No matter where I am or how long I've journeyed,
I will always come back.
You have a big hand.
Is it only big enough for me alone?
Actually, a fist is as big as a heart.
This is the size of my heart.
Do you think there is room for anyone else?
I read this from the internet.
It fits my current life perfectly.
Anyone can have my smile.
But my heart is only for you.
Let's go!
What?
Grace.
Everything is in place.
This is the collection information and the schedule.
The item with the highest price is the bridal robe.
It's made during early 20th century, mimicking the design of Ming Dynasty.
This robe uses Xue Yan Twill as well.
Yes, it's the same material Ning Wei Kai used in the contest.
It seems like we keep encountering Xue Yan Twill in our work.
Right, there is a Madam Geng who wishes to meet you.
She said the Xue Yan Twill is a craft passed down by her family.
Really? Bring her here.
Okay.
This way, please.
You must be Madam Geng. Hello, I am Grace.
Hello.
I am curious, how did you know about the item?
The craft of Xue Yan Twill is an heirloom in my family.
This very robe is one of the few robes that my ancestor made.
I have always wanted to find it again.
Or perhaps see it with my own eyes again.
When I met the owner of the robe,
he said he donated to H Group for charity auction.
I understand how you feel.
How about this? Before the auction starts,
I will arrange for you to view the robe.
- I appreciate this. - It's the right thing to do.
Grace, have a look at these.
These are the photos from our workshop.
In the whole Mudu,
we are the only family that is still making it.
These photos are priceless.
Madam Geng, I never thought you are an expert in this field.
I have a request.
I hope you can be the guest of our auction.
Sure, gladly.
This is great. Cindy, arrange for this.
Madam Geng, this way please.
- It's Mr. Ning. - Mr. Ning is here.
- Good morning. - Mr. Ning!
Good morning.
Mr. Ning.
- Good morning. - You are back.
Yes.
Mr. Ning.
I think you should use another office instead.
What is wrong?
Your previous office is still...
being cleaned.
I have another office ready for you.
Okay.
Right, what are there so few of you?
Mr. Ning, while you are gone,
many of the workers resigned.
We lost a number of outstanding and elite workers.
President Zhu didn't care about it.
Mr. Ning!
Mr. Ning.
- It's better not to... - Open the door.
Mr. Ning.
The office is currently unusable.
It's okay. The works can't be delayed.
Let's not waste anymore time.
Right, pass me the documents that need my inspection.
Okay.
Mr. Ning.
The documents you requested.
Wei Kai?
Han Jing.
What happened?
- All thanks to President Zhu. - That's enough.
You may go now.
Stop walking around. The shards are everywhere.
Don't cut yourself.
All right, it's okay.
I can clean this place on my own.
This is nothing.
He is clearly messing with you.
Anyone can see that.
I am back now.
Don't worry, I will be fine.
Wei Kai,
ever since you failed to make the target during May 20,
Han Chong has been planning to get rid of you.
You came back so soon. He might do something worse.
Do you need a few more days?
Resting is to readjust the mind and keep on working.
But the opponents are still playing,
I can't leave the game so soon.
Actually, I have been thinking.
What edge does Li Zhi Cheng have?
I can finally see it now.
He always has friends by his side.
He is respected by all.
And me?
I always fight alone.
Getting prepared for love?
I am learning.
- Not bad. - The interview is over?
Yes, it's over.
How is the progress on the search for data on Xue Yan Twill?
Miss Lin the designer, ever since the contest is over,
you have mentioned it countless times.
Xue Yan Twill...
My ear are bleeding!
As an assistant of a designer, it would be embarrassing...
if you don't know about these.
I think you should be spending more time on your relationship.
If Mr. Li plays any weird tricks, you won't be able to stand it.
Him? Tricks?
Mr. Li seems like a honest person,
that is his greatest trick.
Innocent on the outside, crafty on the inside.
Ya Yi, I think you know this better than anyone.
I learned from the dramas.
Mr. Li, you are leading a sneak break...
to let your employee have a date with you?
Keep working in the office and you'll be a maniac.
Now that you are out here, leave the work for tomorrow.
You should give your boss a day off.
Let him spend some wonderful time with his girlfriend.
You smooth-talker.
Fine.
I'll follow your order.
Follow my order?
This mission poses a great risk.
Your missions come and goes,
get your life hanging on a thread and end with a rescue.
Well, if you think staying by my side is a great risk,
we will go to a place with great risk.
How about a trip around the world?
I will take you on a journey to different continents.
You are going slow?
Ever since we met our glamourous time,
I realized I can't take my eyes off you.
I swear I am not a skin-deep vagrant.
If I say I do,
can we finally be together?
Honey please stop with the tantrum...
so I can carry you up.
Every time the Earth finish another round,
I will love you even more.
Even in this ever changing world,
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
I never worked out so hard before.
You need to train more.
I knew...
I should have known.
When you ask me out for a date, there is no way...
you will go for a restaurant or a movie...
like a normal couple.
But I never thought you will bring me to a gym.
So, you mean you hate to work out with me?
No.
I like it.
But I am exhausted.
Then I will show you something. It will fire up your spirit.
What is this?
The H Group is having an auction.
There is an item that you might like.
Ming Dynasty design? Xue Yan Twill? Bridal robe?
Xue Yan Twill?
There will be a preview before the auction.
I have it arranged, we will go there together.
Okay, I shall forgive you.
When I saw my senior use this fabric during the contest,
I realized there is such a unique and well preserved craftsmanship...
here in Linhai City.
I planned to combine the traditional elements into my design.
But I overlooked such a precious local material.
Is this fabric really so special?
Fabric is the foundation.
Even a magnificent castle needs a strong foundation.
If you are so interested,
we'll two more rounds of plank exercise.
In your dream!
