[Negotiator]
[Episode 16]
Chairman Fei.
I bought citron tea for you.
Did you need something, Chairman Fei?
I can't catch up with you if I don't need something?
Let me go.
And if I don't?
All right, then I'll stay here with you.
I don't have anything else to do besides write a letter of suspension anyway.
Actually, I came to say farewell.
My dad is really angry that I made such a big mess of everything
so he wants me to return to New York immediately.
This might be our last time meeting.
That's great.
Nobody will cause me so much trouble anymore.
Regardless of what I've done, we still got to know each other.
So...
Can you come see me off tomorrow?
I know.
I caused a lot of trouble for you in these two short months.
But we were in love.
So...
Please don't turn me down, all right?
- What time tomorrow? - 3 p.m.
I understand.
You see that man drinking alone over there?
What about him?
He looks familiar.
He's Qin Tian Yu of Fu Tong Law Firm.
Isn't that the one who spied on his girlfriend for a big Ke Wan case?
In the end, the project fell through and he lost his girlfriend?
He's so shameless.
Listen, this guy is just lucky.
It's not easy to get to the position he has at Fu Tong.
People like him are the most dreadful.
They're always scheming.
Let's not talk about him. Let's drink.
Did you tell your wife we're out drinking?
No, you'd better not tell her.
If she calls my wife, it'll be so annoying.
Hey. Who were you talking about?
So what if I was talking about you?
Say it again if you dare!
Don't push me! I'm going to beat up that guy!
I'm calling the police if you cause trouble again!
Mr. Qin? How come you're here?
Get up. The ground is cold.
What happened?
Where's your house? I'll help you home.
Leave me alone!
Slow down.
Mr. Qin, what's wrong?
Your lip is bleeding!
Go away! I said leave me alone.
If you're like this, I'll be worried.
Like this? Like what?
Like what? Say it!
You're afraid to say it? I'll say it for you!
Like a failure!
In my mind, you're always incredible.
Incredible?
Right.
I am your superior.
No matter how you look at me, there'll always be a halo above my head.
But I'll tell you this.
One day, you will be just like Tong Wei and fall in love with another man.
I won't.
I only like you.
Forget it.
I won't fall for that lie again.
I've never lied to you. It's true.
Come with me.
Take your time.
What did you bring me here for?
Welcome to my house. You are my first guest.
This is your place?
Mr. Qin, you don't have to take off your shoes.
Come in.
Okay.
Hey, you're back.
He's my housemate.
Mr. Qin, please come in.
Mr. Qin, this is my bedroom.
It's tiny, isn’t it?
It's all right.
Mr. Qin, sit here.
Thank you.
I work in a high-end office during the day
and come back to sleep in a tiny apartment like this.
But even a shared apartment like this costs 3,000 yuan a month in rent.
My monthly salary is only 5,000 yuan.
Other than this, I have transportation costs, money for food...
and utility bills.
It's sad, isn't it?
Thank you.
This reminds me of when I first joined Fu Tong after graduating.
The compensation was even worse.
Interns back then weren't paid.
But you're a man. I'm a woman. It's different.
In order to get out of my small town and into a school in Shanghai
I studied as if my life depended on it.
I finally graduated from law school.
I didn't know that to get into a law firm like Fu Tong
I would also be vying against thousands for just a few spots.
But so what if I got in?
My mom knows about my current living situation
and is dead set on making me come home.
She often calls and tells me...
"Chen Chen, you're turning 25 next year."
In our town, when you're still unmarried at 25"
"you'll be considered an old, unwanted woman."
I don't want to go back.
My mom nearly disowned me for that.
You don't need to be so pessimistic.
I'm not.
I'm no longer pessimistic after meeting you.
Me?
When I was most lost and helpless
you appeared in front of me like a knight in shining armor.
You consoled, encouraged, and helped me.
You even treated me to a meal and gave me a ride home.
Because of you, I have the courage to stay in this city.
I hope that in three years...
five years...
or 10 years, I will have my own home in Shanghai.
Bi Chen.
You think too highly of me.
No, no! You don't know how good you are.
You're such a fool.
Mr. Qin, I didn't tell you this so you would misunderstand.
I like and admire you
but I don't have any intention of gaining anything from that.
When you're feeling sad or upset, I just want you to know
I will always view you as magnificent and extraordinary.
Thank you.
Earlier...
I shouldn't have spoken to you like that earlier.
I'm sorry.
No, it's okay. I didn't take it to heart.
Good.
It's late. I should get going.
Thank you for the honey tea.
Mr. Qin!
Uh...
You should finish the honey tea. It is sobering.
It''s good for the stomach and health.
Thank you.
I caused a lot of trouble for you in these two short months.
But we were in love.
So, please don't turn me down, all right?
Xiao Fei, since this pen witnessed our beginning
then let it also witness our end.
Hello, Ms. Tong.
Where is Chairman Fei?
He is waiting for you at the airport. He sent me to pick you up. Get in.
Ms. Tong, are you all right? Are you feeling unwell?
No.
There's still some time. Have a drink of water.
Xie Xiao Fei.
Who are you calling?
You--
Don't you know it's common knowledge to turn off your phone on the plane?
What's going on?
Let me think.
Li Xiang Zhong picked me up to take me to see you.
Where is Chairman Fei?
He's waiting for you at the airport. He sent me to pick you up.
- There's still time. - Then I was dragged onto the plane.
You arranged all this, didn't you?
How do you have my passport?
If I didn't have it, I could find a way.
Luckily, I found out you have a U.S. visa.
I won't betray my comrade.
Tian Tian?
You guessed it yourself. I didn't betray her.
Relax, will you?
Since you're already on the plane, you should enjoy this surprise vacation.
Xie Xiao Fei, will you stop messing around?
I'm not. You're suspended anyway.
You have nothing to do in your free time.
Wouldn't it be nice to take a fun vacation with me?
What do you want?
Nothing. Put on your seatbelt first.
This is kidnapping, you know?
Either way, you have to put on your seatbelt.
If an accident happens, it'll become homicide.
I don't care.
Once we land, you are booking a return flight for me.
I won't.
Fine. Here's what.
We don't have anything to do anyway.
Why don't we chat?
Let's talk about what kind of man you'll get after I leave.
Or what kind of woman I'll get after I leave you.
Okay, tell me.
- I just want to chat. - Don't talk to me.
Isn't this your father's pen?
I know now. This is the farewell present you're giving me.
- I'm so touched. - Give it back.
You-- What are you doing?
I learned it from you.
Don't talk to me. I'm sleeping.
You really don't want to talk?
Let go! Let go! He kidnapped me!
Sorry, I'm having a fight with my girlfriend.
Who's your girlfriend?
Where are you going?
How many times have I told you women should walk on the inside?
What is your brain for?
- Tong Wei, hurry up. - You...
I want to go home!
You don't even have your passport. How are you going home?
I'm not giving you back your passport.
Let go!
Stop following me!
Come on!
I told you to be careful. Where did you think you were going?
What are you doing?
I'm booking a flight home.
Who said you could?
Give me my phone.
You don't even have your passport.
What's the use in turning around in a circle?
You'll still have to keep walking.
Get in.
What are you up to?
I'll tell you when we get there.
I'll get on after you tell me.
Do you want your passport?
This song isn't exciting at all. Change it.
I want to listen to this.
How could you like the blues? It sounds terrible.
That's the distinction between us.
You're still a kid.
What did you say, Wei Wei?
What did you call me?
You're not being nice so I'm calling you Wei Wei.
Call me Sis.
You're a baby. You want me to call you Sis?
Nuisance.
You're pretty when you smile.
- Can I discuss something with you? - Shoot.
Give me back my passport and then take me to the airport.
Sorry.
You...
What?
If you're mean to me again, I'll throw your passport so you can't go home.
- Look ahead. - What?
We're going to chase the sun!
Tong Wei.
Be my girlfriend for three days.
Just three days.
After three days, I'll set you free.
I don't understand.
From the moment I met you
I haven't had you completely to myself.
Before you leave me once and for all, I want you to give me three days.
What happens after three days?
I return to Shanghai, you return to New York
and we never see each other again?
At the least, you'll be completely mine during these three days.
You can openly be my girlfriend.
All my life, I have had my fun many times.
This is the only time I have experienced unforgettable love.
So give me a chance.
Let us be a normal couple for three days.
What are you afraid of?
I'm scared.
I'm afraid that after these three days...
My heart will hurt for the rest of my life.
Since we have to split up sooner or later
why did you come back to bother me?
What do you want?
I want us to love without holding anything back.
I want you never able to forget me the rest of your life.
I want to become the man you love the most.
Even if we can't be together
I still want to dominate your heart.
You are so selfish!
I'm a jerk.
I'm selfish.
Admit it.
You want me to give you a future, don't you?
I just want you to leave.
Stop hiding it.
You're afraid you'll love me too deeply and can't pull yourself out of it.
Director Zhou told me at the club.
She didn't know what she was saying.
Tong Wei.
I want to give you a home.
I want to give you a future.
But I can't.
I can't give it to you.
Because I am not just Xie Xiao Fei.
I am also the only successor to X-Group.
I have never coveted your family's assets.
You're mistaken.
My family is a mud pit.
I don't want to drag you into it.
Do you remember that day at the hospital?
The one lying in the hospital bed
is my mother.
She's sick?
When my dad got together with my mother
he met with the family's disapproval.
My dad was born into a prestigious family
but my mother was just a poor foreign exchange student.
My dad loved her so much though.
Regardless of everything, he married her.
My mother thought she would live a blissful life from then on.
But what she didn't know was...
marrying my dad...
was just the start of her tragic life.
Mama, Mama. Come out to play with me.
Mama, Mama!
Xiao Fei, don't bother Madam. Let's go outside.
You're so lucky.
The house there is so beautiful.
The other women in the family gave her the cold shoulder and ridiculed her.
Mama told Dad many times she wanted to go out and find a job
but he wouldn't allow it.
The reason was that Xie family's madam could not go out and work.
Cheers.
Mama drank too much at a family gathering.
She asked once again in front of everyone to be allowed to work.
In order to protect his reputation, he told her in a burst of anger that
if she wanted to work, she'll have to break off all ties to the Xie family.
Wan Qing, don't be like this.
- Tian You, listen to me! - Calm down.
Mama wanted to endure this inhumane life but she just couldn't.
Not long after she left, we received a call from the police.
She was in a car accident.
From as far back as I can remember, Mama had been extremely depressed.
Later on, she received an outcome even worse than death.
She settled into a vegetative state.
She has been sleeping for over a decade.
The year after, Auntie Hui Zhu came into our family.
She's different from Mama.
She is the first wife to receive unanimous approval from our family.
She is also the heir of a hotel enterprise.
She has a meek temperament
and willing to act the part of the good wife supporting my father.
My dad still loved my mother
but he still slowly accepted Auntie Hui Zhu.
Are you afraid your family will destroy me
like they did to your mother if I am with you?
I love you.
That's why I don't want my love to destroy you.
That's why I can't give you any promises.
I don't dare to either.
Xiao Fei, you underestimate me.
I'm not that easily destroyed.
You say that because you don't know
how dreadful the power of a family can be.
To deal with a woman who came from an ordinary family...
they will use neglect and ridicule to slowly torment you.
They'll turn you from an elite professional
into a worthless and dispensable person.
Your confidence will be completely crushed.
My family is like a black hole.
You can't see it
but when you pass by, it will swallow you whole.
I watched how my mother got to the state she is in now.
I don't want you to repeat that disaster.
Why didn't you tell me this earlier?
You are a proud woman.
I don't want you to become someone like that.
I don't want to see you become like that either.
Letting go is also a form of love.
I can't give you a future.
So, promise me.
Be my rightful girlfriend for three days.
Give our love a beautiful ending here.
Afterwards...
we will have nothing to do with each other.
All right?
Xiao Fei went to Hawaii?
According to Li Xiang Zhong, Ms. Tong went with him.
What is he thinking?
He publicly humiliated Chen Xi at the negotiating table
and now he's gone off with Tong Wei!
He said he'd break into the China market.
Now, he's pushed that all to the back of his mind for a woman!
To be honest, we are a bit puzzled over Xiao Fei's relationship with Tong Wei.
They've already broken up. Why did they return together?
Find Xiao Fei by any means necessary.
Then march him to Chen Xi to apologize to her!
The problem is Xiao Fei has cut off all communications.
We can't reach him.
Use all our connections and find him!
What the heck?
Where are we?
What's going on?
Is the GPS not working?
Why did you make me take the right turn?
It's all your fault.
We almost drove into the ocean!
You're blaming me? Aren't you the one who told me to turn this way?
Why did you choose a homestay instead of a nice hotel?
Where's the homestay?
Hotel? Aren't hotels the same everywhere?
I carefully selected this homestay.
A five-star hotel is comfortable but there's no love to it.
Where's the love?
We can't even find our way. Forget about talking about love.
Hold on.
You have a signal?
Let's go.
What is this lousy place?
I'm going home to sleep.
I called you here for a reason.
Look who's inside.
I can't believe he's not just good at basketball
he's even in a band.
Xuan Xuan, he's gorgeous.
Tong Wei, wipe off that drool, will you?
Go. Don't you like him?
Forget it.
Tian Tian, you usually throw caution to the wind
but why do you shrink back when it comes to Sun Hao?
Didn't Rebecca give out word that she's going after him?
What? Compared to Rebecca, are you missing a nose or a pair of eyes?
No, I don't want to chase after the same boy that Rebecca is.
It brings me down a level and is embarrassing.
I know you don't have confidence.
I'll tell you top secret information.
Come closer.
It's said Rebecca confessed to Sun Hao.
But she was rejected!
Really?
He really is my Mr. Perfect.
He has a sharp eye for girls.
That's why you can go on ahead without reservations.
Maybe he likes your type.
We'll see after his performance.
Let's go.
He's so handsome!
Then why are you letting him walk away?
Idiot, I brought you here for nothing.
Boss, what do the guys who just left usually order?
Those boys order a bowl of soymilk with Chinese crullers every day.
Okay, give me one of the same.
- Okay. - Make it two!
Aren't you on a diet? Aren't you afraid of getting fat?
Mr. Perfect's meal set isn't fattening.
Do you want to be his fangirl or his girlfriend?
I'm nervous!
Next time. I'll definitely confess next time.
Two orders will be 118 yuan total.
Is this it?
The GPS says it's here.
Let's go in.
This should be it. It feels right.
- Hi! - Hello.
Are you Xiao Fei and Wei?
Yes.
Aloha!
Welcome.
I'm so glad to see you both. I've been waiting for you all afternoon.
- Oh, kids, you must be so hungry. - Yes.
Come inside. I made you dinner.
How did you know we were so hungry?
We got plenty of food for you two.
Why don't we take a picture?
All righty, dinner's ready!
Okay.
Do you like them?
These are all pictures given to me by couples who've stayed here.
I hope you two will give me one when you're going home.
Come on in for some food. It's hot now. Come on.
Welcome to my home, you two.
Let's enjoy this beautiful night, shall we?
Thank you.
Wow, what a feast!
You're welcome, honey. How about a toast?
Cheers, cheers.
So where are you both from?
New York.
Shanghai.
New York, Shanghai? So you're long-distance lovers?
Yes.
Can you tell me your love story?
Our story's really simple.
I'll tell you.
So one day, she was jogging around in New York
and these guys who looked like trouble were walking her way.
I couldn't just stand by and watch, so I helped out.
Then she fell in love with me.
And why is that? Because I'm too charming.
So this is a story of the hero who rescues the beauty, right?
And then Wei fell in love with you.
No.
Here's what really happened. Did you forget?
I was staying at a hotel in New York and he was working as a doorman.
It was love at first sight for him.
So he got his friend to play a thief
in a well-thought out damsel in distress situation
in which he was the hero.
Sometimes, it's worth playing tricks for love, isn't it?
Well, then, did you know all along that it was nothing but an act?
Why did you play along, then?
Oh, I know why. Because you fell in love me at the first sight.
So, you were more than happy to keep it going.
- You were the one who fell for me. - I don't want to hear it.
You were obviously luring me with your eyes and made the first move.
And then... Yes, that's how it happened.
Okay, fine, it really doesn't matter who fell in love first.
Exactly.
You both love each other now and you get to be together.
Right? That's what matters.
You're such a sweet couple. I'm glad I'm getting to meet you both.
Rita, where's your husband?
Oh, my old man's away on a business trip.
That's probably him calling now.
He's so annoying. He calls every night and wants to talk and talk and talk.
Sometimes, I'm falling asleep, he's talking so much.
I better go get that. You two go on and eat. I'll be right back.
- See you later. - Yes.
Look, they're still so sweet even after being together for so many years.
How nice.
Now that's growing old together.
Why are you changing the subject?
Did you fall in love with me first? Speak.
Say that again.
You fell in love with me first.
- Say that again. - What? Want to fight?
