[Only Side by Side with You]
[Episode 2]
- What's inside the case? - It's just a camera drone.
Shi Yue, you brought a cop? I'm going to kill you!
- Stop the car! - Don't vomit, don't vomit!
We're almost there. Don't vomit!
That was fast.
- Who am I? - A mafia boss?
A bartender. A driver!
I'm the victim.
Why does she have this?
Interior hovering technique... Beyond line of sight flying...
The only thing I'm good for is making drones.
We worked really hard on our plan. I've said it already, you guys just...
Today is a big day for you and for Future Up.
Future Up is your dream. I'm going to fulfill this dream with you.
As for the ring... I don't need an answer right away.
- Let me just get this call, okay? - No!
- I'll be quick. - Hurry up then.
Hey, Xiao Qiao.
I just left the office. I'm with a colleague.
I know.
I'll probably be late tonight. I have to meet with some clients.
Don't stay too long at the office. Remember to take care of yourself.
Zhou Ran...
let's break up.
What did you say?
You can constantly reproduce business after business...
can you do the same with love?
Where are you?
Nan Qiao, where are you?
- Zhou Ran! - Stand there and don't move!
Listen to me. All of that was just for show.
You know that men have to engage in these things.
Don't overthink it. She really planned the whole thing.
I really had no idea.
All right, she planned it all.
What about the kiss then?
Xiao Qiao, I barely know her. This is a business relationship.
It's really not what you think. Let me explain, okay?
Nan Qiao, what are you doing?
The stuff I have in your apartment, you can toss them. I don't need them.
Nan Qiao.
I know you're angry right now. And really upset. You can let it out.
But don't treat our marriage so lightly.
The wedding is next month, isn't it?
- I won't be there. - Nan Qiao, aren't you being selfish?
What's the big deal about a man getting some?
The business world is filled with things of this nature.
Is it necessary for you to cancel the wedding without giving me a chance?
What about the invitations we sent out?
- Aren't you afraid... - I'm not.
You're the one who's afraid.
Tell your father I'm sorry. I won't be participating in the wedding.
- Nan Qiao. - Don't push me around!
Can't you be more straightforward?
Ask your own conscience if I really treated you so horribly.
You like drones, I did everything to help you.
You wanted your own company, I invested in Future Up!
What else do you want me to do?
Your investment in Future Up...
was for you to buy my feelings, was that it?
So asking you to invest in Future Up was a mistake.
As expected, Nan Qiao.
You only react when I mention Future Up.
Our engagement isn't even as important as a stupid company?
A stupid company? Say that again!
Do you know what Future Up means to me?
That drones are the only thing you care about.
That you spend every holiday in the office...
and you can't even have a meal with my parents without being on your computer!
Nan Qiao.
We were a mistake from the start, is that what you think?
Well, it's not too late to fix things.
I want to withdraw my shares.
All right.
I hold 30 percent of the company's shares.
I want it converted to cash and paid within a week.
Okay.
Breaking up is the right decision.
Why aren't you getting mad?
Why aren't you getting angry and throwing a fit like other women?
Listen, I despise this kind of self-righteous attitude the most.
You're not mad? Do you even care?
Don't you want to hit me?
It's Zhou Ran, right?
I'm Chang Jian Xiong.
I've got orders to bring Xiao Qiao home.
Nan Qiao, I'm not done yet!
It's been three years.
Yeah, three years.
What a great reunion gift you've given me.
You're right.
I intentionally asked you to come out here.
I don't want you to rush blindly into marriage.
I want you to see what you're getting into before making a decision.
Three years, and I couldn't see him for who he was.
What a failure.
He's the one who took you for granted.
You give him freedom and he goes to find other women.
Three years...
If he was ever sincere towards you
he wouldn't be using Future Up against you.
I'm going to return everything that was his back to him.
I want us to have nothing to do with each other.
Will your company be in trouble if he withdraws his shares?
Yes.
How much is it converted into cash?
Not a small number.
- I can... - You can't.
If I need help, you're the first person I'll ask.
- But if I don't... - Even if I give it to you...
you won't take it.
Nan Qiao, why don't you bring me to your office?
It's been three years. I wonder how everyone is doing?
Sure.
Chang! Chang!
Qin's going to be so happy to see you back!
Qin! Qin!
Chang! You're back!
Geez, stop bothering me! The boss is getting married next month
and the company is going to be Zhou Ran's.
If we can't complete this new product, we're all screwed.
- I'm leaving then. - Go away!
Chang! Oh my goodness!
You're finally back!
It's been three years! I've missed you so much!
- You're our savior! - That's the rumored Chang?
- Yup. - Future Up's savior!
- You're so fit now! - He's like a protective deity.
My latest apparatus. What do you think?
- Not bad! - Isn't it?
- Is it okay? - Yeah.
Come on, let's go over there.
- Such a perfect man, and he's so... - Hey!
He's the boss's childhood lover. Give up.
Check it out!
Nice!
You guys won that many awards in three years?
Are you planning to leave again?
Nope.
Welcome back.
- He's so much sturdier, right? - Yeah. How about you?
I can't even compare.
I called the wedding off.
Why?
We're not a good fit.
He cheated?
If you ask me, who cares if you don't marry him?
I don't think this is a bad thing.
Having a fiancé who's also your investor doesn't work.
One kind of relationship is based on profit
and the other should absolutely not be.
He's not an investor now either.
Is that what you want?
Are you afraid he'll use that as an excuse to make our lives difficult?
We can't just let him withdraw. We can get the law to protect us.
He brought it up, and it's what I want.
I can't believe it... you were together for so long.
I can't believe that asshole is so resolute.
I keep thinking...
We were together for three years but I don't know him at all.
Men who cheat have a million excuses.
If he does it once, he'll do it again.
Loving one person already takes so much energy...
how does anyone have the energy to love a second person?
Qiao, someone like that isn't worth your time.
Give yourself some time. You'll get over him soon.
Zhou Ran wants his 30 percent of the company's shares
- all liquidated... - Let's not discuss money today.
Let's talk about your decision. Are you going to regret it?
I've never made a decision I regretted.
All right then.
Since you don't regret it, just leave the rest to me.
But have you told your family yet?
Your dad and your sister still think you're getting married.
When she wanted to get married, she asked you to inform me.
I don't need to hear about its cancellation from her.
I don't care what hardships she's gone through
and I don't want to.
She hasn't come home in the three years since she started her company.
She no longer needs to come back.
Dad!
Xiao Qiao has her own struggles.
Besides, it's not like she's the one who didn't want to come back.
Her business is not my concern. I don't want to hear about any of it!
- Xiao Qiao! - Nan Qin.
Zhou Ran's dad came over. He was all apologetic
but he was criticizing you with every word.
He complained that you spent all your time in your lab
and was never present and never went home.
He said his son never had the opportunity to see you in person.
Apparently he withdrew his investment to get you to stay.
Get me to stay?
So I should shut down Future Up, is that right?
We broke up because Zhou Ran was having an affair.
Xiao Qiao. Dad didn't say anything about you in front of them.
He just had one thing to say.
"Neither of my daughters are cowards."
Come and greet him.
Nan Qin, take care of Dad.
- Xiao Qiao! - I'll take her back.
- Take care of her. - Don't worry.
- Chang Jian Xiong! - Yes!
You're not allowed to help.
Understood.
I want you to take me somewhere.
Where?
The usual.
This was where you sent me off three years ago
when I decided to join the military.
Three years passed so fast.
You've returned, and yet I've still accomplished nothing.
How so?
Future Up was just established three years ago.
How can it be compared to what it is now?
Do you think what happened between Zhou Ran and I was my fault?
Xiao Qiao, listen to me.
You don't need to blame yourself. If there's anyone at fault, it's him.
I know that I'm better at lab research than relationships.
He finds me boring. I can understand that.
He doesn't have taste.
My best friend since childhood is back!
I'm just being honest.
Our Ms. Nan is perfect, what can I say?
What, you don't believe me? Want to ask God then?
How?
God! Do you think Xiao Qiao is to blame?
Did I do something wrong?
You see? Even God has nothing to say.
You've learned to be funny in the last three years.
I just say what I think is right.
Xiao Qiao.
- If Zhou Ran withdraws and you need... - I'll think of something.
- But right now we... - That's an order!
Yes ma'am.
- You haven't forgotten? - I wouldn't dare to.
What was the sky like at the border?
Blue.
Very blue.
Xiao An, why are you so slow? Give me some.
You start from that end, I'll start here.
Qiao, I'll first be going over our business development.
Next, Qin will aid you in a simulation of the formation flight system.
Xiao An, check the weather for two hours from now and confirm whether it's
- up to simulation standards. - Okay.
Kui, what are you wearing? What did I say?
Today is a crucial day for the company. Watch your appearance!
And didn't anyone think of preparing fruit or flowers or something
for our guests?
- I'm free, I'll do it. - Hurry up. Order urgent delivery.
I want it asap.
- Got it. - President Wen...
I had this specially made. It's a victory outfit, for good luck.
Just let him wear it, it's fine.
How else are researchers supposed to dress?
That's right, President Wen. It's filled with work vibes.
Turn around!
I get it now. I'm the only bad guy in this company.
The only person you people listen to is your boss.
Then let me repeat myself.
Thanks to Zhou Ran, no one is willing to work with us right now.
Yu Feng Capital is only here today not only thanks to my connections...
but also because your boss drank herself to death with them.
If any of you mess up this negotiation because of your individual issues...
forget salary bonuses. You won't earn another cent in your life!
Sir, about the delivery I just sent in, please hurry!
My future is in your hands!
- Let's go over the plan again. - Okay.
President He, Lucid Dream's President Qie is waiting to see you
but you should be heading to Future Up right now.
I'll see him since he's already here.
- President Qie. - Hello.
- What brings you here today? - I decided to stop by for a visit.
Shall we go to my office? Come on, let's go.
- Your office is huge. - Here, right this way.
Hi, I've got a delivery for you.
- Who is Ms. Xiao An? - Sir, that was fast! Our investors...
You can give that to me.
Our meeting was at ten, but now it's nearly eleven.
They're probably stuck in traffic. I'm going to go down to wait for them.
Hi, President He. I'm Wendy from Future Up.
Where are you right now? We can send someone to pick you up.
Rest assured, our company has a professional research team.
They've even...
No, but Yu Feng has always valued working with us.
I understand.
I look forward to working with you again.
Where are they?
- They're not coming anymore. - What reason did they give?
Just senseless excuses.
Not passing risk assessment tests and the like.
There's only one reason they would back out at the last minute.
Zhou Ran, right?
I'm not going to take this, whether it was because of him or not.
- Hello? - Zhou Ran, what's wrong with you?
What are you trying to do?
Hurting Xiao Qiao, hurting Future Up, did your conscience get eaten by a dog?
How did I hurt Xiao Qiao?
She's the one who wanted to break up.
And she's the one who decided to give me my shares.
I simply cooperated with her. Is that a problem?
Asshole!
Last time when I told you to hold off on Future Up...
Didn't you listen to me?
President Zhou, I've already put all the relevant paperwork in limbo.
I haven't rushed any of it.
How did Yu Feng Capital and Future Up's first round of negotiations go?
Neither President showed up.
That's odd.
Everyone rejected investing in Future Up for my sake.
But those two met Nan Qiao in person.
How come they backed out at such a crucial time?
I guess it works.
This way Nan Qiao will understand how difficult things are without me.
This is Future Up's new business partnership plan.
Take a look.
Who knows? You might need me one day.
Future Up, this is Nan Qiao speaking.
Xiao Qiao.
What do you want?
- Hello miss, what can I get for you? - Iced water, thanks.
Coming right up.
Xiao Qiao.
These past few days have been rough, haven't they?
Yes. It's been difficult since we've had to return your money.
You should let me know if you're struggling.
Xiao Qiao, you shouldn't lash out at me for the sake of it.
Aren't you just hurting yourself?
I've helped you come up with a new financing strategy.
It will help you cover for your 20 million yuan loss
and fund the research for your new product.
However...
the funds won't arrive until two months later.
Why two months?
Xiao Qiao.
Marry me in two months.
Thanks.
Where's your girlfriend?
Still jealous, are you?
Which means... you do care about me.
Don't worry. I've ended it with her.
Only people like you and me are well-matched.
Please sign this agreement if you don't see any issues with it.
- Nan Qiao, you know if I... - I'm aware.
There are only so many investment firms.
If you back out, all the other investors will believe
that our new prototype is a failure
and that the product has no future in the market.
This is beyond your control. I can understand that.
- Understand? - That's right.
So I will transfer your equity to you within the time frame of the agreement.
All 20 million yuan, as dictated by the current market value.
Please sign if you have no problem with the sum.
There are still procedures to follow.
Xiao Qiao, did you come see me just to talk about this?
You could have just been a stranger, but you insist on being an opponent.
Nan Qiao, get back here!
- Should I still give these? - Get out of here!
Miss, you can have this.
Zhou Ran! Didn't you say you broke up with her?
- What is this? You lied! - Who told you to show up here?
You shouldn't have said you loved me then.
I wanted to marry you. But you! How could you do this to me?
- How dare you? - Let me inform you...
Yesterday I liked you. I loved you.
I bought a few bags to make you happy.
But today, you're nothing to me.
- Where did you run off to? - To meet Zhou Ran.
He had the audacity to see you? What did he say this time?
He... Are you sure you want to clear his shares?
Best to get it over with. Dragging it on doesn't benefit anyone.
We're already short 20 million. Now you want to add another 20...
Where am I supposed to find 40 million yuan?
I plan to release the new product early.
How early? We're already on a tight schedule.
A week.
Has Zhou Ran made you lose it? That's completely impossible.
I've talked with the others. It's not absolutely impossible.
All the hardware is in post-production.
You're ready, but the vendors and suppliers aren't.
I sent Xiao An to the factory to press them into prioritizing our product.
I don't know what I'm going to do with you.
Why are you standing out here? Why don't you go in?
I'm fine. Not anyone can just enter the research lab.
I don't think she'll have time to see you today.
Is it still the money?
Weren't you guys meeting the investors this morning? No one came?
Didn't those people specifically ask to see her in person?
- Did they make things difficult? - Don't you dare ask her about it.
Mr. Chang, over here!
- Nice to meet you. - This is our President Ji.
- Hi. - Call me Ji Ming.
Here, have a seat.
When we heard Mr. Chang wanted to see us, we canceled all our appointments to come!
Help yourself!
It's not fun without baijiu. Should we go somewhere else?
No need! Waiter, I'm a VIP customer.
He's my VIP guest. We'll drink whatever we please.
- Let's get a bottle of baijiu! - Two boxes.
- Two boxes? - How can I express my sincerity
without treating the two of you properly?
Why are you standing there? Go on!
- I can't call the shots on this. - Then get someone who can.
- Please wait. - Hurry it up!
Mr. Chang, you must have great alcohol tolerance.
Shi Yue.
I got us a great deal.
These beauty products. They not only gifted us a bunch...
they've also promised to hold events at our place.
I think it's a good idea.
We'll give it to the girls later. Kill two birds with one stone.
Sleeping mask?
- So a girl's skin gets beauty sleep? - That's right.
Not bad! Your skin can rest but you can stay awake to drink.
Boss, the guests in A12 want to drink baijiu.
Don't we have vodka? Give them vodka.
I've explained, but they're insisting on baijiu.
- And they want two boxes. - All right, you can go for now.
I'll be right over.
I'm going to take a look.
Since that's what they want, we can go buy them some.
Don't forget the bowls.
Bowls?
Customers are our gods. Our service needs to be quality, no?
- Bowls. - Sure. I'll bring them some.
- Which ones? - Over there.
Mr. Chang, I heard that you didn't take your family business
after completing your military service.
Other people don't get it, but you two should, don't be modest.
As they say, it's easy to conquer a city, but difficult to conquer a kingdom.
It'd be difficult to keep expanding my family's industry.
If I had the funds, I'd like to get into something new.
- It's here. - Leave it here.
You may go.
Mr. Chang, is it?
I'm one of the owners. I'm Qie Hao.
Everybody comes to a bar to have fun, right?
Why drink like this? Enjoy.
- Cheers. - Likewise, likewise.
It's such a waste to drink such great liquor in a bowl.
- Certainly. - Here you go.
- Cheers. - Cheers!
Cheers.
Cheers!
- Top it off. - Let's slow down.
- Are you disrespecting me? - Fill it up, fill it up.
- Are you going to honor me? - Yes!
- Cheers. - Cheers!
Boss, my two friends have drank quite a bit.
Please call an ambulance in preparation.
Rest assured. We even have wheelchairs.
- Great liquor, isn't it? - Yes, yes it is.
- That's enough. - Enough, enough.
- There's no more. New bottle. - Really, it's enough.
We've only just begun!
I told Chang Jian Xiong about your meeting with Yu Feng Capital.
He asked for their numbers and made a reservation at Lucid Dream.
- I think something isn't right. - Of course it's not! Chang Jian Xiong...
Listen, he talks like that all the time.
Pardon me.
We've got ourselves a troublemaker.
He seems difficult. I think he's been in the army.
Call an ambulance. Just say someone hit their limit.
- They'll need to be carried out. - That serious?
Drink. Drink! Drink more!
What's the point of leftovers?
Listen up!
This is the first Sky Blades assembly!
What are your expectations?
Are we just testing the waters?
- Chang Jian Xiong. - Yessir!
- What do you think? - I just know I can't leave.
Who is that guy? He's interesting.
Chang Jian Xiong, your greatest opponent.
We've only just met, how is he my greatest opponent?
Bro, you're both at the top of the class.
You don't know yet which one of you will come out as the winner.
I heard he has no weaknesses.
He's good in combat, good with artillery, espionage, infiltration tactics...
He's achieved the highest level in all of them.
Also, he's no fun. He has no friends. All he does is train. He's formidable.
He's just a dense blockhead. How formidable could he be?
We all placed bets before we came, betting whether you or he would win.
What kind of gamble is that?
Why are you here?
I'm following orders!
What a small world.
What do we do?
I don't think they've damaged their stomachs yet.
- Let them keep drinking. - That's insane drinking.
Can those two weaklings handle it?
He knows what he's doing.
This guy is probably here for that Nan Qiao girl.
She's a complicated one. These are all VIP guests.
This is getting interesting.
Very interesting. I overheard just now.
This guy is Chang Shi Group's heir.
He just made a career switch.
Also, his relationship with Nan Qiao isn't simple.
Boss, your opponent this time is pretty formidable.
This woman... I've set my sights on her.
- Tai has brought his people here. - Go on.
Tai is here.
Tai has given his orders. He wants to ruin you.
If you don't let him sell, he's not going to make your life easy.
Let me go down to take a look.
If he wants to ruin me and toss me into the water...
let's open the doors and play with him.
You installed a dashboard camera?
Experience trumps everything. No wonder you're a pro.
An Ning...
Hey...
isn't that the drone girl?
She's walking towards your car.
Keep watch here. I'm going down.
He acts all high and mighty and refuses to let us sell...
He thinks he can cleanse himself by acting like that.
Yeah. I can't stand Shi Yue.
He always puts you on.
He just has An Ning backing him. Otherwise, he's nothing compared to you.
Shi Yue hasn't been doing this for long.
He's only climbed so high because of his women.
Tai, you're the one with actual skills.
Since he wants to keep us from earning our cash...
we're going to make it so he has nowhere to go.
