[Our Glamorous Time]
[Episdoe 31]
Hey! Give you an inch and you want a foot!
Sister Qian, come and have a look!
These pieces are stitched together.
With chiffon on the front, she would use knitting on the back?
And all the tassels?
Whoever wears it will have all the weight of the shirt on the back and nothing on the front. How awesome!
How could she have missed such an obvious mismatch? This is stupid!
Well done, Yayi! You are learning.
If someone without any experience like me can see it, how can a veteran designer not? Is she a fool?
And
if we take this up to Amanda, she will say we're trying to pick a fight. And her assistant!
I'm sure she will go into an all-out war with us.
But if we don't bring it up,
we will have more to worry about if this design goes to the factory.
Tell you what, print it all out for me. I will notify them myself.
Alright.
Remove all this embellishment. I want a minimalist design.
- I'll have it changed right away. - This is fine.
- These two lines look fine. Leave them. - Okay.
Amanda, there is something urgent I need you know. Can we talk in private?
We can talk here. I'm busy.
- This line... - Look at this design.
We have to stop it before it goes to the factory.
Come to my office.
Amanda, you wanted to see me?
Have you never been a designer's assistant?
Sorry, Amanda. Did I do anything wrong?
Your design has been rejected. How did it end up in the final copy?
Sorry, I messed up.
Put it here so everybody can see.
Let everybody have a look at your design.
Look. You have a super light fabric
on the front, but all these layers and add-ons on the back?
Everything you add on the back will weigh it down and there is nothing to balance it out on the front.
Is this how you work as an assistant? And you want to be a designer?
Amanda, I talked to you about this.
What I wanted was...I...
Maybe it's a communication issue.
And that would have been the worst of all issues.
If you need someone else to point out your mistakes, then I'm sorry, my team isn't the right place for you.
Amanda, please give me another chance. I was wrong.
If I gave you another chance, who would give me one? Would Aida have a chance if we produced your design?
Luckily, Director Lin caught it. It would have been a nightmare.
- She is trying to hurt me for having her write up the... - Watch your words!
Forgetting your place? Director Lin's doing what's best for the company.
What I demand of you is for the company. Don't you see?
Actually, stitching is a good idea.
All we have to do is some changes to the fabric and cutting. Time is running out. I can do the tweaking.
Director Lin, I can correct my own design.
You stay away from any design.
Director Lin, thank you for offering to help.
Not a problem.
- Amanda... - Out!
Where were we? These buttons?
Yayi. Here.
Give me a hand.
Director Lin, this is my original draft.
Thanks.
Look here.
Director Lin, this is my design.
If you have issues, you can talk to me.
Why did you have to take it to my boss?
Please make sure you know what you are talking about. It was I who caught your mistake.
And only Amanda can stop a design.
Talking to you wouldn't have helped anything. If this design goes to the factory and we incur huge damages,
Will you be able to fix it all?
- I can't outshout you. I'm talking to Director Lin. - It's because you were wrong and you know it.
Think about it. Amanda yelled at you in front of everyone to let people see she is impartial.
We couldn't have stopped her.
Enough. We are running out of time.
We have to get the final design ready for the factory by tomorrow. We can discuss this later. Okay?
You are way past the line!
- Who are past the line? - That's enough.
Back to work.
What a bitch!
What's the matter? You look upset?
Don't beat yourself up. Things happen in life or work
and not in the way you wanted.
But you did your best for her.
So no guilt.
Actually I didn't come to talk about Lin Qian.
Aida is rejoining Wenda.
I thought Aida was just getting back on track?
Wenda needs someone strong at the helm
or it will fall apart.
Many seniors are still at Wenda and they play long games.
If you go back like this, you don't even know who is your friends and who is your enemy.
I thought about waiting longer.
But there is no time. I have to do it now.
Because of your father?
And I will bring Y Fancy with me.
Y Fancy wouldn't have been where it is without you.
But H Group would never step into Wenda's mess.
I know. I will repurchase your shares
in Aida, at a higher price.
Ok, I shall thank you on behalf of H Corp.
What are you still doing here?
Shouldn't you leave a good comment for sending you home?
4 stars. One less because you talk too much.
Jin Yuan!
I like you.
Jin Yuan,
even though we barely talked when we were in high school,
I have a special feeling towards you.
Do you know that every time you pass me by,
I would look at your back,
until it disapperar.
What you like to wear,
how you like your hair to be done, how many times you smiled, even how many time you have talked to other guys,
I remember all of them. Especially when you were talking to guys.
I was very angry.
I've been feeling it.
But I can't hide it today. I don't want to hold it anymore.
Jinyuan, I want to tell you that
I lie you.
(music)
-What are you doing? You on drugs or something? -No.
I am very sober.
Do you know that, Jinyuan? No other women can enter my heart except for you.
Starting today,
I am officially courting you.
(music)
What is your problem? You should go get it fixed.
(music)
I don't care if you believe me or not. I want to show you how I feel.
I don't care how you feel about me either, because I know that
I will move you
with my actions some day.
Jinyuan,
I said what I wanted to say.
You should go think about it.
(music)
♫Hide in your wind coat♫
♫Feeling the way you spoiling me♫
♫No matter what others say about us♫
♫Your kiss cures it all♫
It was raining really hard outside.
I thought you are not going to show up.
How could I not show up when you are the one asking?
♫Stay at your house♫
♫No matter where I go♫
♫As long as I'm seeing you♫
Cheers.
♫Wearing a white dress♫
♫And have my drawing in your book♫
What? Still worrying about Aida?
♫The most familiar night scene♫
Such chagrin for you to work with him.
From the perspective of a businessman,
he is not a very good partner.
But from a lover's perspective, I think many girls
would love to meet someone like him.
♫With my suitcase♫
♫Staying at your house♫
♫No matter where I go♫
I actually think that having goals of each own and work towards it
make better relationships.
And also loves each other.
Wouldn't that be too ideal?
I think relationships like that would be very rare.
♫The most familiar night scene♫
♫But there is a new mood♫
♫fliping through memories that are worth remembering♫
You are such a jerk.
What are you doing to Jinyuan?
Don't you feel disgusting about what you just said to her?
Jinyuan is single and so am I. Single guy going after single girl.
What do you have to do with it?
People like you who never come through and always up to no good,
and you all of the sudden start going after Jinyuan. You must have a purpose.
Look at you, always look at people with prejudice.
I know that you like Jinyuan.
But you should know that,
a small role with nothing special, going after the princess everyday,
is that nice?
It doesn't matter who qualifies or not. To Jinyuan,
whoever is good or is real to her,
is the most important thing.
You think to be real can make her be with you?
Let me tell you, Gu Yanzhi.
In front of Li Zhicheng, you are forever a servant.
No matter what the servant does, people take him or granted.
So Li Zhicheng wouldn't let his sister to be with you.
Mind your own business.
No matter what is the purpose of you trying to be with her,
I wouldn't let you.
Stay away from her, or I will go after you.
Then let's compete fair and square.
A friendly reminder: I act fast.
Qian Qian, can we go now?
More powerful, yes.
Switch.
Let's take a break. We will shoot the last set later.
Sorry everyone, I am a friend of Miss Jinyuan.
Good work today. I brought you some baked goods.
Here.
-Thank you so much -Enjoy.
Grab whatever you like.
Enjoy.
Be careful. There are people here.
Jinyuan, this tastes so good! It's like a chef made it.
You friend is so nice.
-Have more if you enjoy it. -Thanks.
Thanks.
What are you doing here?
How much longer do you have? I can drive you home.
I have the last set.
Principle Chen is here to visit Miss Jinyuan. Here are some snacks and yogurt.
Just a little something. Good work everyone.
Some expensive yogurt.
Wow, this is nice.
What are you doing here?
To visit you.
This yogurt is very filling.
You should be generous when you visit Jinyuan.
It looks like you don't get paid well as an assist manager.
Chen Zheng, does your tongue turn to a knot when you don't speak?
It's cool.
Excuse me.
It tastes so good!
Ok, got it. I will be back soon.
Jinyuan, I am needed at work. I probably need to be back now.
Go do your thing.
Pick you up tonight?
It's ok.
Don't bother. I have a date with her tonight.
Since you are needed at work, you should go do your thing.
I will call you later.
Your jacket.
Why are you everywhere?
Let's go.
Amanda.
What happened?
Keep calm before you know what's really going on.
She sent out my design draft. How do I keep calm?
What are you talking about?
Qian has been helping your assistant with your draft all night.
How was it leaked?
Not admitting?
Look, this is the proof.
You are really something. On one side you said you were helping me with the draft,
on the other side, sent my design
on the forum of international designers.
I never thought you would be so lack of work ethic.
I didn't do it.
How did this happen?
You sent my design to the international fashion designer forum,
and you tell me you are seeking a way to solve problems? Are you really doing it?
Stop lying.
There is no way Qian would leak secrets.
Look closely,
this is your account on the forum.
Everyone sees it, right?
I remember something. I was sleeping here last night,
there was another person walking in here.
I heard mouse clicking.
I though it was you.
Who was it?
Stop acting, ok?
Whatever, I don't care who did it.
Principle Gu, I need an explanation.
Qian...
I also believe that Lin Qian wouldn't do such a thing.
But Amanda really escalated it.
You know, people talk in this company.
Even though I want to protect her, I can't do it under the day light.
When will you be back?
I have important things to deal with here. You deal with this.
Right, you need to ask what Lin Qian has to say.
She is your woman and you have me ask her.
I don't even know what my woman is thinking.
I am just going to say this,
I was the only person in the room when the drafts were sent.
If you want to punish anyone, punish me. Qian has nothing to do with it.
I really don't have to talk to a assistant.
Go find your boss.
My boss? My boss is Qian.
You are bullying her because she is nice.
What else do you do other than picking on her?
Why don't you pick on me?
Me picking on her? I am only doing the right thing.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say picking on.
To be precise, you are framing her!
Isn't it just because you think Qian's design is better than yours?
If it wasn't for her tolerating you all the time,
what else are you up to?
I am not leaving until it's clear!
What are you guys doing?
This is a workplace. See how loud you guys have been? You didn't see all these people watching you?
Grace, you are just here on time.
Don sent me here to work with them and to advise them,
not having an assistant here to mess with me.
Aida's employees
are really something else.
What actually happened?
Ok, as the art director, I really don't have to argue with an assistant.
My design was leaked and I didn't say much.
A little assistant comes here to yell at me.
I really want to know why.
That's because you frame people up, bullying others, and being a thief.
-Watch what you are saying! -Alright alright alright.
It's about the draft been leaked, right?
I will have Gu Yanzhi
investigate it and give you guys an explanation.
But Yayi, this is a workplace.
There is a hierarchy in this company.
Do you think it's proper to talk to your
art director like this?
That's it for now. Get back towork.
She is just a little girl. Don't mind her.
What happened today will be investigated.
Get back to work.

I know about the leak.
I didn't do it.
Stop talking. I believe you.
Just do your design. Don't be disturbed.
I will deal with the rest.
Ma Feng is on it. It will be done soon.
Aida can't do without you.
So can't I.
Ok.
Go do your thing.
I will be fine.
A designer with less than 5 lines on the resume
can be in your position is your luck.
Don't miss it and waste the opportunity.
We've seen many who made it through being with the boss.
I researched you before I came.
If wasn't for Aida's CEO's support,
as a designer, you are not qualified to argue to me.
Chinese elements being used in luxury brands is called fashion.
But it will only be a small part of the designs.
You think Chinese element will really become popular?
Nothing would left after it blows over.
Resignation
Principle Li,
Amanda and her people are framing Qian up,
saying she leaked the designs and was up for no good.
Will you do anything about it?
I know.
Then you have to do something.
You can't just watch her being wronged.
Do you have evidence that proves her innocence?
No.
What do you mean?
If there is no evidence, you are just going to leave it?
You should be on our side and believe us.
I always believe you guys and I never had a doubt.
The draft was leaked through Lin Qian's personal account.
There is no evidence shows that she didn't do it.
So I should fire Amanda
and all the people who are evil and shut them up?
That's not helping her, it's hurting her. Do you understand?
Talk this much and doesn't even help us.
Lin Qian is my girlfriend.
I love her more than anyone else. I already had Ma Feng to start the investigation.
What we are doing right now should be proving her innocence.
Not protecting her without an excuse.
Yes, she is your girlfriend, but she is also my best friend.
And you are just going to watch her being bullied?
Do you even deserve her love?
No evidence. Being framed up.
You are a designer. A small one.
Who do you think you are?
Stop being angry.
Others haven't done anything and you are going crazy.
How could I not be?
Seeing her wrong you like that makes me mad.
I don't want you to suffer.
And I hate to see them being happy about it.
Bad people. Bad people.
I am fine.
Yayi,
I have decided to quit.
Give this letter to Principle Li.
Quitting?
What are you doing?
It wasn't your fault. Why are you quitting?
Amanda should be the one leaving.
No one is right or wrong.
There is no use fighting over it.
If I stay at Y Fancy, I can only do small things.
That's not what I want.
Since I want to leave anyway, I don't need to care about other things.
Qian,
did you tell Li about it?
He won't let you leave.
I was going to tell me.
But I can't say it in front of him.
I believe that
no matter what happened,
President Li will always believe you.
Can you really leave him?
Of course it will be hard.
But, President Li,
he has his goals, and I have my journey to go through.
Hand this letter to him.
I will follow you no matter wherever you go.
What are you doing here?
I came as soon as I received your resignation.
What, not inviting me in?
Come in.
I want you to take back your resignation.
I wrote what I needed to say. I will not take it back.
I am not reading it, nor would I accept it.
Zhicheng, I am not your employee anymore.
I have my right to choose.
If it is because of Y Fancy, I can solve everything.
It's not about problem-solving.
It's about me not wanting to change myself.
I can't face you anymore.
Since the first day I joined Aida,
I only wanted to do my own design. I didn't want it to have anything to do with you.
But we got together eventually.
I thought we can run away from this problem.
I thought we can run away from the consequences of office romance.
But I did think of that our personal relationship
will become the weapon turned against me.
I don't want to hear anyone saying that I got to my position because of you.
I don't want to live with it anymore.
Qian, I am sorry.
I've been busy and I ignored your feelings.
I wasn't been considerate. I'm sorry.
♫
I actually have been thinking about it for a while.
♫
Me staying at Aida was because of you.
I have been convincing myself.
I thought after everything,
I shouldn't give up easily.
♫
But now,
♫
I can't come through.
♫
I can't face it anymore.
♫
You don't have to care about what others think.
You also don't have to be hard on yourself because of others.
Qian, I know your dream.
But everything takes time.
Give me some time. Can we just wait for a bit longer?
But, I can't force myself to do what I don't want to do anymore.
Like now,
no matter how much I like you,
I can force you to leave Aida
and build a business with me.
Love is to never force.
Can you really leave?
I don't want to leave you.
But, I am afraid that
when work intervenes our love,
it will drive me further away.
♫
I will go back and hand over my work tomorrow.
If you really understand me, let me go.
♫
I want to take a break
once I leave the company.
I need time to think about
what to do in the future.
Little Qian.
Yayi?
I want to tell you something.
You guys talk. I think too much about it.
Have a good rest. I will visit you in a couple of days.
I am sorry. I was all my fault.
I am sorry.
Little Qian,
I made many mistakes. I feel like I've been causing you trouble.
Like me damaging the Luo Pao.
You have been cleaning up after me.
I don't even understand what's what and my design was a mess.
That's why Amanda can pick on you.
Also, I think I should be blamed for the leak.
I've been thinking that if I didn't fall asleep,
Amanda wouldn't be able to do it.
And now you have and suffer and quit.
Yayi, Amanda was targeted at me. You have nothing to do with it.
No, you took me with you when you opened the shop.
I don't have any motivation. I am lazy and
I watch too much tv shows.
And go online shopping. All I do is waiting for delivery and opening up the packages.
You told me to go learn things many times.
I was only pretending to.
I said I had stomachache and headache. I was lying. Who gets sick that much?
I know that you tolerate me.
Qian Qian, I have decided that
I am quitting tomorrow.
I will take some classes
to improve myself and learn more skills.
So I can be better.
After all, little Qian Qian's assistant can't be that bad.
Who says you are not good enough?
If you quit because you want to learn things, I fully support you.
Designers need to keep learning new stuff
in order to create new things.
You finally realize the importance of learning. I'm happy for you.
Actually, Qian, even though I am not detail-oriented,
I actually know stuff.
Look, there is no water in it.
-No water. -Let me listen to it.
Told you there is no water.
No there is not. It's all solid.
Don't worry, I will work hard and not embarrass you.
Go for it.
Don't cry.
I can't force myself to do what I don't want to do.
I am afraid that work will intervene our love
and drive me further away.
If you really understand me,
let me go.

Lin Qian.
Come, I need to talk to you.
Are you really quitting?
Yes.
That's not possible. Would Li Zhicheng ok with it?
We talked about it. He is ok with it.
Because of what?
Was it because of the leak? Or Amanda?
Let me tell you, you really don't have to quit.
Office politics is something everyone has to deal with.
I know, President Gu.
Actually, me quitting have nothing to do with Amanda.
It has nothing to do with anyone. I decided it myself.
We are so close to going back to Wenda. Li Zhicheng needs you the most right now.
Doesn't he have you guys to help him?
You guys are also his power force.
Although I will leave, it doesn't mean that I don't support him.
I will be on his side no matter what.
