[Only Side by Side with You]
[Episode 37]
If you want a woman's heart, you have to satisfy her stomach.
Let me see what you plan on using to satisfy my stomach.
I hate bitter melon.
Here's the thing.
Future Up has been through so much.
Now, it's finally being recognized by the Asia Technology Conference.
Thus, bitterness is usually followed by sweetness.
I said to make Future Up a laughingstock within the industry.
Yet why does it still have the right to attend the technology conference?
Tai is about to send the shipment out.
It's been so many years. What haven't I been through?
Have I not led us all through every kind of situation?
When have I ever hidden?
Now there's just a few people and things that weren't in the plans
and you're telling me to go hide? Are you crazy?
The technology conference can be a shining moment for Future Up...
But it can also be a scandal.
Why leak everything today of all times?
You're saying they're targeting the conference.
Exactly. Leaking everything now puts Xiao Qiao under attack all around.
No one is going to care what you're saying on stage.
They'll only press you on how Future Up is going to keep their foothold
with the codes leaked.
They're just waiting for you to be humiliated
so they can use it as an eye-catching news headline.
It's what you think. An Ning's behind it.
Hao Jie found key evidence suggesting that what we guessed before was accurate.
Are you going alone?
There are some things I have to settle on my own.
I'll be listening to your speech.
Thank An Ning for me.
She pushed me to make a decision I always wanted to make but was afraid to.
Be careful.
I'm going to release Phoenix's source code into the world.
All drone enthusiasts and specialists are free to develop their own machines.
Everyone can try achieving their dreams, and create their own Future Up.
Don't look at me!
Your explosion of creativity is making my eyes hurt.
- Can you come here and take a look? - At what?
At this.
Eight propellers, four arms.
And a passenger seat.
What mysterious idea is this?
This is the passenger drone I've always wanted to make.
Smart transportation of the future.
Jäger doesn't satisfy your ambitions?
Didn't you say I had to make a drone the world has never seen before?
I think that flying should be a lifestyle.
So I want to build an ecosystem for the sky that covers everything.
Transportation, travel, logistics, medical services...
are all key components of this ecosystem.
It's a grand concept and the technology is there.
But have you thought objectively about other limitations?
- You're saying... - Parking.
Where do you place the tarmac?
Will your flight routes affect other commercial aircrafts?
How does something so big become part of everyone's daily lives?
That's why I was wondering
if we could use vertical takeoffs and landings
and upside down U-shaped flight routes.
That way you don't need the traditional airport runway facilities.
If we can design it so that it folds up...
then we can minimize the amount of space it takes up.
- What are you laughing at? - Nothing.
I've noticed that our brains are structured differently.
How so?
Yours is filled with intelligence and science.
Mine is filled with...
the two of us riding drone taxis to our dates.
I wonder when that will become a reality.
I know what you're thinking.
Don't project your imaginations of me onto other men.
Listen, other men aren't as great as flying planes as yours is.
Your narcissism has led me to the key problem of my plane.
The main thing about my drone is that its flying has to be automated.
One day, it will be as common as a car.
But you do make a good point.
Anyone who uses my 184 will be a pilot.
What is your 184?
One passenger, eight propellers, four legs.
What's so funny now?
I'm a bit worried.
About what? That we won't have funds, or that the concept is too far-fetched?
No, no.
I'm worried that our future children will be under a lot of pressure
with such a technologically savvy mother.
You mean you'll be under a lot of pressure.
Pressure is motivation.
I'm imagining how perfect our future children will be.
First of all, they'll inherit your intelligence.
- Secondly, they'll inherit my... - What?
Looks.
I'll stop distracting you.
This got awkward.
- Take your time making your 18... what? - 4.
184.
Bye!
You guys won't be able to guess who Jäger is servicing first.
President Wen, you're... using the word "service"?
- So it must be a big VIP! - Who is it then?
Xiao Qiao's introduction of Jäger at the conference
caught the eye of the government.
They've labeled it a project they'd like to focus on.
They're going to be funding our research and development.
For a single woman like me...
being successful at work is the only thing that gives me happiness.
Being single is so great though.
You get so much freedom!
With another person, you always have to compromise when you go out.
Right, yes.
You can't say it like that!
For example, the great news we just got. I should definitely give you all a break.
- Definitely. - So you can go on dates, see family...
- Yes. - Right.
But what about me?
I'm all alone. Going on leave to me is such a waste of time.
Because I have nothing to do outside of work.
- A waste, a waste. - Yes, a waste.
Look. Your President Wen is a career-driven independent woman.
She spends all her time working.
Don't be disheartened, I think you're doing great.
But working every day is really tough.
Sometimes you need to take a break, right?
- Switch between work and break. - Yes, you have to relax. Relax!
Last time we went to the arcade. It was pretty fun.
Maybe we should go again?
To tell you the truth...
If you really want to go, find a weekend and I'll get Zheng Hao to take you.
He's better than me. Playing with me is boring.
Hold on.
What you meant just now was...
you're going to give everyone a break today?
Yup. A break.
You hear that? President Wen is giving everyone the day off.
If you all have nothing to do, you're all free to go!
President Wen, I'm off then! Kui, aren't you leaving?
- I'll wait for Qin. - All right. Bye!
- Thanks President Wen! - Come on.
Thanks Chang!
Thanks President Wen.
President Wen, um...
President Wen, if you really want to ask him out...
you have to find somewhere with no people and tell him directly.
His brain...
How can the girl be the one asking the guy out?
Who do you think Chang Jian Xiong is?
If you tell him, he doesn't get it. If you don't tell him, he doesn't get it.
His intuition when it comes to love is practically nonexistent.
He's like the definition of a brick wall--
Do you still want your salary and leave?
I can't talk with you guys that aren't capable of understanding women.
It seems that a woman's greatest enemy isn't aging, or younger women.
Rather, it's a dense man's brain.
- Bye, President Wen. - See you.
What is it that you just had to speak to me in person about?
Jäger has received the support of the government and they'll be funding it.
When are we meeting to discuss it?
There's no rush. Probably next week.
Is there anything else? If not, I'll be leaving.
Hey, Nan Qiao!
I need to be comforted right now. You're just going to leave?
What happened?
I mean... I can't help you with anything sales related.
And we're not starting starting the new project until next week.
Can I have some personal time for a couple days?
You're happy now, but we're still suffering here.
Ouyang Qi and Hao Jie are running around in circles on purpose.
They're dating.
And you... your career is stable, and you have no relationship problems.
So what's going on?
My relationship problems are serious.
She fell in love with someone she wasn't supposed to fall in love with.
- Who? - Chang Jian Xiong.
- Since when? - Probably since he came back.
I used to diss him a lot in front of her, didn't I?
You always say he's more brawn than brains.
He's dependable and doesn't manipulate you.
And you'd say he lacks humor and is obstinate.
He doesn't get emotions or love, but that means he's secure.
You see? Your criticisms, to Wendy, are all--
In my eyes, they're all qualities that make him special.
My gosh, Wendy.
Blind, bottomless devotion totally doesn't suit your personality.
But the issue right now is he isn't getting the hint.
Things that other people get when you say it once...
he doesn't get even when I say it a hundred different ways.
Well, I can't let you complain about him like that.
Didn't you just say?
- These are all Chang Jian Xiong's... - Qualities that make him special.
Yup.
Qiao...
Can I date Chang Jian Xiong?
It's not like he's mine.
You shouldn't ask me. You should ask...
Ask who?
Yourself.
You should go after him if you like him.
You're the most independent one out of all of us.
Has your problem been resolved?
Will you let me go now?
I really have very important things to prepare.
I'm busy too.
I have to go home and pack.
Where are you going?
Hao Jie and I are going on a road trip.
Damn.
Will you two stop with all the showing off?
It's too much of us, here, I'll eat some before I go.
Do you not find two men sitting together at a coffee shop awkward and strange?
It is weird, but you wouldn't go to the shooting range with me.
- How about-- - Baby, I'm almost there. Wait for me.
I'm sorry, what were you saying?
How about we go rock climbing?
I can't, I'm going with Nan Qiao. If...
You can ask Wendy.
She's with Nan Qiao because she has nothing to do.
You can pair up with her and come with us.
Hold on.
Don't tell Wendy I'm with you.
Why not?
I turned down her request to hang out to come find you.
Why would you turn her down?
First she asks me to play in the arcade with her...
Then she gets me to teach her how to work the self-balancing scooter.
I taught her once. After half a day, she could barely go five meters.
And she made me fall with her so many times.
This woman... is a genius.
She found the perfect excuse to touch you all the time.
She's probably better at riding one of those than either of us.
Hold up, what are you saying? That she's doing this on purpose?
It's so obvious that it's on purpose.
That way she has more chances to fall into your arms.
Look at how much effort she's putting into this.
Are you an idiot?
You can't tell?
Considering your sense of awareness... no wonder you could never get Nan Qiao.
What now, are you trying to provoke me?
No.
I'm just saying, Wendy is a skilled and mature woman.
You two are hardly a match...
I have no idea why she'd fall for you.
What do you mean she's in love with me?
Seriously, can you focus when we're having a conversation?
I'm here, I'm here, okay? Do you still have any questions?
I'm coming, baby!
Relax, I'm almost there.
[Happy Birthday]
Lean closer... so your heartbeat can sooth my insomnia.
Your scent fills the night air.
It sparks an instantaneous passion inside me for you.
My whole world disintegrates around you but it's okay.
It turns out that innocent eyes are the most dangerous.
I fall in, little by little. I fall in love with you without you realizing.
I love you, I love everything about you.
Even if you act selfish and crazy, even if you avoid my gaze.
In the space between reality and dreams, let me give you some warmth
and keep you company.
I love you, I love everything about you, even if no one else understands.
I'll still be there at your side when the end of the story has arrived.
Every day, my heart beats faster.
I don't want to waste this love I feel.
I'm letting down my guard, you're the only one I want to see my heart.
Thank you.
Thank you for understanding me.
It's too late for me to participate in your past.
But I'll be there for your future.
From today, you can just be my own robber.
Welcome to our Lucid Dream.
What kind of trick is this supposed to be?
Every cocktail should have its own unique name.
You drink the kind of cocktail that reflects the woman you are.
This drink is the essence of you.
So... its name?
Exclusive Memory.
Exclusive Memory...
Tastes a little sour when it first goes down.
There's a bit of a bitter aftertaste.
Are you criticizing me with wine?
Although I guess the first time we met here, I had too much to drink.
I vomited all over your car.
And I was just going out for a jog in the morning...
but I accidentally broke your dog's leg.
You took me to the mountains to do flight tests and we ended up stranded there.
When you think about it, nothing good happens when we're together.
And the time I tore the wristband off here.
It was a bad memory for you.
I don't want to have to fix this wristband again.
So after you put it on this time...
don't take it off again.
Happy birthday.
Did you call us all the way out here to flaunt your romance?
Where else would they flaunt it then?
I came to celebrate Shi Yue's birthday. What are you guys doing here?
What is this? You're already thinking of us as outsiders?
They all say women's IQs drop when they get in a relationship
but I feel like your EQ has gone down too.
Why can't you two follow Hao Jie and Ouyang Qi's example?
Those two can take a hint.
They're in the middle of their road trip having the time of their lives.
That's what I'm saying! There are interesting places everywhere!
Why did you two have to come here?
We were officially invited here!
Yeah. I originally planned on inviting all of Future Up's employees.
But I thought about it.
I didn't want them to see you like this.
See me like what?
You're so busy dating now that you've forgotten about proper business.
Wrong!
I am her proper business.
You two are like... a young couple in the midst of passion...
I can't stand you guys. Let's drink, come on!
Let's drink one, to your passion.
You'll have to toast us every day then.
We're going to be passionate every day. That's troubling, isn't it?
- Here, cheers! - Happy birthday!
Shi Yue...
Playing guitar again pretending to be all that?
I remember back in training, with those female instructors--
Birthday cakes have to be eaten warm. If it's cold, it's not good for you.
Do you remember what you said to the female instructor
- to get us to run five kilometers less? - What female instructor? I didn't!
- I just know every night you followed-- - What female instructor?
No, you're my female instructor.
Say...
You're really not going to the military reunion this year?
Nope.
There's only a few of us left.
What's the point of reuniting?
All the more reason to reunite.
Until there's only one of us left.
Every reunion, it's either someone's passed or someone's gotten ill.
It's called a reunion but no one's ever all present.
If you're going to reunite but you can't actually reunite, what's the point?
The ones that are still alive just gossip about the ones that left.
It's pointless.
What does leaving mean?
When the doctor announces you've died?
When you've been carried out in a coffin and buried?
These don't count as leaving.
Then what do you call it?
When there's no one left to remember you and no one left to know you once came...
That's when you've truly left the world.
Leaving is that simple.
It just happens.
No warning, soundlessly.
Chang...
I think living is rather a wasteful extravagance.
Say...
Nan Si has been gone for so long.
How come every time you mention your son, look at you.
You're like a housewife that has it out for fate and everyone.
Can't you bring out that... heroic commander in you?
To them, I'm never a commander.
I'm a father. An inadequate one.
I know what you're going to say.
Lecture me for treating Nan Qiao unfairly.
Or say I've got a sharp tongue.
But this is all I can do.
Keep the doors open. Keep watch over the house.
Water all the grass and flowers that the children planted.
That home is filled with all of our family's memories.
I'm trying to figure out how to get closer to my son.
I think... we should just get together and move into a senior home.
A senior home is good.
When we're old, we have to be independent.
Take care of ourselves on our own.
Don't drag the kids down.
You were a commander your whole life, you got used to being taken care of.
Of course you don't want to drag anyone down.
But I spent half my life working hard building an enterprise.
I can't--
You know what are some signs that you're old?
What?
You're afraid of spending money, afraid of dying, afraid of sleeping.
All symptoms that you show.
You really just go on and on.
Although... one thing you said today is very accurate.
What?
The kids can take care of themselves.
You're acting so delicate. Why don't you just wash your face?
Sometimes I really worry for your dad.
Why?
For having such a dimwit for a son.
How is he supposed to pass his business down to you?
Here, take this.
Sometimes I really can't tell if you're really stupid, or not at all...
or faking stupid, or pretending to be stupid cute...
- Please speak human. - You wouldn't understand even if I did.
Let me ask you something.
What do you think about Wendy?
She's great.
I mean how?
Skin?
Personality?
Or body?
You're so shallow.
I haven't even brought up the shallow stuff.
Look at me.
Is she good?
What are you thinking?
That's that then.
Don't be crazy. Is she good?
When you drink too much tea, your stomach is just filled with water.
What do you expect it to be filled with? Gold?
Seriously... I was just saying! Coming out with you is so boring.
I called you out for tea just to get you to relax.
You have to be calm when facing work, and calm when facing your kids as well.
We're already so old. Young people's hearts are stronger than ours.
If we keep calming down, our hearts might actually just stop.
You have to be impudent when you're old and modest and steady when you're young.
Hey, I think you just unconsciously said something deep.
How about I take you to go do something new and thrilling?
Aside from drinking tea and reading newspapers...
fishing... we old people really don't do anything thrilling.
What do the kids do at night?
What are you looking at?
Horoscopes. Young people now are into this stuff.
Let's see...
August. August... is Leo.
Listen up.
Try something new.
Experience something you've never experienced before.
You might get good luck.
Seriously?
What's a Leo?
Never mind about that.
Why don't I take you to this new bar so you can see what nightlife is all about?
A bar?
A place to drink tea?
You're so simpleminded. Let's finish this and go.
Come on.
Hurry up! Can you?
Wendy, Wendy! Are you okay?
Isn't that them?
Who's the girl next to my rascal of a son?
- You two go on, don't mind us. - Okay, bye bye!
I think she's from Xiao Qiao's company.
This is a good girl.
I can tell from her face that she's a great girl.
Who's the guy with Xiao Qiao?
- Send her home safely! - I will, don't worry!
I have to check him out.
What bastard dares set his hands on my daughter?
Didn't you say they could take care of themselves?
Weren't you going to let them be?
I'm just checking, not controlling.
Look.
- That was some strong wine. - Why did you drink so much?
You can't throw up there!
Good girl.
I feel so awful... so dizzy...
I can't walk anymore, what do we do?
Put me down! Put me down...
It smells so good!
Thank you, Mr. Shi.
In the future, I'll be in charge of making money.
You can be in charge of looking pretty.
No!
Thank you.
Try it.
Is it good?
Grandpa, there's no recepti--
- Which door? - I don't know.
Hurry up!
This one, this one.
- What are you doing here? - Aunt!
What are you doing?
Dad! What are you doing here?
Don't bother hiding, I've already seen you.
Come on out.
What's your name?
Shi Yue.
Which "yue"?
"Yue" as in the shade of a tree. Sort of like Auntie's name.
Hello, sir.
What is the opponent of my daughter's company doing in her home?
I sent him to the opponent's company as a spy.
Right.
And I came to ask her to take care of these three cute dogs for me.
You came to ask her to watch your dogs but you look like you live here?
And you got a meal out of her too.
If you're begging someone, you have to look the part.
And I... cooked this meal for her.
Okay.
You guys eat.
My daughter's house is too small. It's too crowded for dogs.
It's not convenient for sleepovers either.
My house happens to have lots of space.
How about this? I'll watch them for a couple days.
What are their names?
This is Lao Da. Lao'er. Lao San.
Come on, Lao Da, up.
Let's go.
Give that to me.
