[Only Side by Side with You]
[Episode 38]
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.
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.
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.
- 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...
- What are you doing here? - Aunt!
What are you doing?
Dad! What are you doing here?
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.
- Come on. - Grandpa, he hasn't even said yes.
That's not what I meant. There's free food here.
We haven't eaten yet, so let's eat first. His cooking is really good!
When did you try it?
Why German shepherds?
Military dogs are loyal.
Let me get the door for you.
- Let's go! - Behave!
- Let's go, this way! - I'm going.
What do we do?
You're worried about the dogs?
I'm worried about you!
Why are you worried about me?
Once my dad makes a move, there's nowhere for you to run.
Why do I feel like your dad is a really just person?
The first time we meet, he takes the dogs for us.
I think in the future, our communication will go smoothly.
And we can be friends.
- Thick-skinned. You just wait. - Good friends.
- Just wait! - Do you think I'm like your dad?
I'm kind of like your dad.
It was definitely supposed to be the scene of a bloodbath.
Why did it become a warm, congratulatory, cultured scene?
Grandpa, were you afraid?
You don't get it.
We didn't come here to protest, we came to intimidate.
What's the difference?
Protesting is speaking with your fists. Intimidation involves intelligence.
Besides, your aunt was present.
No matter what you asked, they'd answer with a lie.
Genius. Really.
- So these dogs are hostages? - Animal hostages.
Yup. Dog hostages.
- Let's go! - Come on.
Wendy, it's not fair.
Why didn't you bring me to Mr. Shi's birthday?
Everyone there was taken, why would you want to go?
Every guy at Lucid Dream is taken?
There wasn't anyone else. Just the four of us.
Then Chang is taken too?
If Chang Jian Xiong was capable of dating women...
then pigs would be able to fly.
Zheng Hao said before that taking advantage is the best way to get a guy.
Chang is single and lonely right now, it's perfect.
Chang Jian Xiong is seriously... not only slow...
but also a scaredy cat during crucial moments.
He's clearly very well-built.
The more muscular a guy is, the tinier his brain is.
- I mean last night was the perfect-- - Last night?
Did something happen between you two?
What happened? Tell me!
Xiao An, let me give you some advice.
Don't get caught up in a guy's physical appearance.
But he doesn't only have good looks. He also has a great dad.
What does that have to do with anything?
His dad might end up being his weakness.
If he has money, he lacks feelings. If he has power, he lacks righteousness.
You know that "fuerdai" isn't a positive label, right?
Is everything going well on your end?
I think I have some trouble here.
Listen, I--
I'll call you back. Later.
Excuse me, please wait.
Is Chang Jian Xiong really that bad?
You're...
I'm that weakness of his that you said.
Yeah, his great dad.
Sir, I wasn't speaking badly about you just now.
I mean, I was talking badly about Chang Jian Xiong
But you know...
Sometimes it's because you like someone that you...
Don't be nervous.
I'm on your side.
Guess what? Chang Jian Xiong's dad came to find me.
For what?
You guys aren't even together yet and the parents are already protesting?
His dad is like a godsend.
His style is totally different than your dad's.
And you know what? He offered to be my secret agent
and to help me get his slow son at the quickest speed.
I'm jealous.
What's going on on your end?
Has your dad made any moves after taking the dogs?
Nope.
It's been so many days and nothing. It's getting terrifying.
I think this is the first step to accepting a son-in-law.
No, no, no. You don't understand my dad.
I think this is the calm before the storm.
I've got everything I need, I'm just missing Chang Jian Xiong.
You have the guy, you've just got a dad to deal with.
Hao Jie and Ouyang Qi have so much freedom.
They've been on vacation for so long.
Should I take a page from Hao Jie's book and go all out?
I support you. You have to use methods like this with slow ones like him.
Dad.
What's going on?
My dad wants to see Shi Yue.
That's good! Your dad is taking initiative.
What do you plan on doing?
I can't go all out.
I... have to try outsmarting him.
You've already dropped dog food off for three days.
You haven't been able to find anything out.
What is going on?
I just got back from Uncle Nan's yesterday.
And?
I've never seen him so frazzled. Your dogs were running all over the place.
He trained soldiers his entire life and ends up losing to three dogs.
It's not a good sign.
That's perfect.
All it takes is three dogs for me to test my father-in-law's sincerity.
What do you mean? You know your dogs have turned the Nan house upside down?
Upside down...
But you know what the fact, that he hasn't returned them to me means?
Returning evil with good?
Love me, love my dog.
The dogs have already been accepted. How far behind do you think I am?
You're too naive.
[Dad: Come with me to your Uncle Nan's tomorrow.]
You know what I do know for sure?
If your dogs have already entered their home, he's inching closer to you.
Of course.
The first time we met was unexpected.
However, there are advantages to that.
It gives us some space, some time.
That way the next time we meet, we're better prepared mentally.
What are the results of your first investigation?
Wonderful. I really like this old man.
He's kind, a good person.
Sometimes I think we're quite similar, what do you think?
- Good luck then. I'm off. - Relax, it'll be definite be fine.
- Hold on! Hold on, hold on. - By the way...
I should still warn you. You better mentally prepare yourself.
Hold on, she just texted me...
Why does he suddenly want to see me? Did something happen?
I thought you were all about going to meet my dad.
But I haven't prepared myself. I hope...
My dad hates people who back out at the last minute.
He's actually really easy to make happy.
He always says...
Men have to say what they feel. They can't bend over backwards.
Keep going. Give me more advice.
He likes my brother-in-law a lot.
As for why... My brother-in-law is easy to control.
Easy, right?
What did he wear the first time he met your dad?
I already called and asked my sister.
- Won't it be too hot? - It'll definitely work.
Good luck. Go change.
- What if I sweat in front of him? - I'll wipe it for you.
Okay.
- Here, have some tea. - Dad.
- Uncle Chang, you're here too? - You're back.
Sir.
I brought gifts for you.
Have my dogs been behaving?
We meet again.
Do you know how to play Tractor?
A little.
Let's go.
Come on.
You know a little? I can't believe you said that.
- Old Chang, sit there. - Okay.
- You sit across from me. - Okay.
I don't care if you're sitting next to him.
I'm still going to yell at him if he plays bad cards.
You called us in such a hurry just to get us to come play cards with you?
Look at the cards and don't speak. Those are the rules.
Chang Jian Xiong, deal.
Sure.
Blood is thicker than water.
We have good chemistry.
It doesn't look too good for you guys considering your speeds.
Against Old Chang.
Draw... Draw your card.
Good chemistry.
Don't you know to play a card for me?
Old Chang.
The one who's laughing at the end is the actual victor.
Move faster!
How did you know my dad had two kings?
His face was really rigid, but you don't realize that his face glows.
Then how did you know he'd get rid of his diamonds?
That's the way he holds his cards.
Hearts, clubs, spades, diamonds from top to bottom.
He held the diamonds for the longest time so I gave them to him.
- You know what this is called? - What?
Knowledge can change your life.
Details can change your fate with your father-in-law.
You think you've passed?
Not just. I flew threw the test.
You didn't notice the way he looked at me.
One eye was filled with affection and the other with admiration.
You know what both eyes together means?
It's love.
Considering how well I did, shouldn't you give me a reward?
Drive! You keep talking...
Stop sulking by yourself.
Look at you.
All your children have found their person.
Now look at me.
Look at my idiot son.
No career, no thoughts of marriage.
And he's always hanging around those two!
I have no idea what goes on in his head.
Waiting helplessly here won't fix anything
and it'll raise your blood pressure.
If you keep saying that, I'm really going to get so mad I get sick.
Just learn from me!
- Take the initiative and attack. - Attack how?
Grasp the main point, attack the weak spots.
That was a test?
You've obviously already given that guy a place in your family.
I only have one requirement when it comes to son-in-laws.
What?
They have to know how to play cards.
You're not going to call all the guys here, are you?
He'll be destroyed. I'm going to make some calls.
- Look, over here. - President Wen.
Our electronic speed regulator research has reached our predicted estimates.
And we'll complete 80 percent of the machine panels this week.
Qin, what about you?
I've given the brushless motor and propeller design schemes to the factory.
They said they'd send prototypes over by Friday at the latest.
Great. With this speed, Jäger should be able to enter the market soon.
Considering all our hard work...
our yearend bonus is basically guaranteed right?
Yearend bonus?
Let me give you a gold medal first. It comes with its own encouragement.
That's it?
Isn't health the most important reward?
What time is it?
11 a.m. on the dot.
- Why isn't Xiao Qiao here yet? - Miss me?
Just in time!
Come on, let's switch.
I can go deal with personal problems now that you're here.
What personal problems? I'll let you go if it has to do with marriage.
- It's Chang Jian Xiong's marriage. - Hurry up and go. Don't rush!
- Boss, let me give you an update. - Boss, look at mine first!
Uncle Chang.
Wendy, sit, sit.
You ordered this much food?
What do you think about my battle strategy?
Is there something special about this food?
Definitely.
This is my son.
This is the plan that's going to get you my son.
Look at this steak.
Medium well, which is like your relationship.
You know each other well, but there's more to get it to well done.
You're saying that the right time isn't here yet.
A medium well steak tastes the best.
Now is the best time to swallow it whole. It's a chance that mustn't go to waste.
If you want to go from friends to lovers when you're already at well done...
That would be too late.
Now look at this plate.
This is the breach in which you will launch your attack.
Penne pasta?
That's what he likes to eat?
His heart is empty.
But before, he was like this.
Genuine and honest.
Because at the time, Nan Qiao was the only one in his heart.
Although don't worry. From my observations, he's completely let her go.
Now, whoever fills his empty heart gets to eat him.
And that person is you.
I get it. I have to give him lots of warmth and time
so that I'm the only person in his eyes.
And slowly, I'll become the only person his heart too.
He has to turn back into this long and thin spaghetti.
It feels so great giving advice to someone with an IQ.
Uncle Chang, what about the salad then?
Well...
Your idea is to make Chang Jian Xiong jealous.
Yes. Exactly!
That's exactly what I mean!
If he's jealous, then wouldn't that mean you matter to him?
If he makes a move, then we can be sure that he likes you.
The plan is in place.
How shall we proceed?
Don't worry about that. Remember, public relations is my thing.
Just wait for me to catch Jian Xiong in my hands.
Great! I just have one more thing to add.
Show no mercy.
- Here. - Why yogurt with Western food?
It seems like they wouldn't match, but they actually really do.
Just like you and Chang Jian Xiong.
I like the sound of that.
Welcome!
How does it look?
Thanks.
What do you think about this one?
I don't think it's your style.
What's so bad about changing styles?
What about this?
This one is definitely your style.
Although the white pants don't match. I don't like them.
Have some juice.
- Thank you. - We have some dresses that suit you.
Hold on, let me find them for you.
You guys have really great service.
I guessed you drink a lot of juice because your skin is really amazing.
It glows and it has a healthy blush.
Here, this dress really matches your air.
It is really pretty, but it might be too long.
You'd look like a princess in this.
Any man who sees you would come running to help you do things.
What do you think?
I don't know.
I'm going to keep looking.
This dress was practically made for you!
Only your body could pull it off.
We have a changing room. You should try it on.
Here, this way.
- Thanks. - You're welcome.
It looks perfect!
What do you think?
This dress really does suit you.
But the back is too revealing. You might get cold.
This looks good too.
You can head on out.
Go.
- I'll pay. - This way.
- Thank you. - I think it really suits you...
so I'm giving it to you.
But covering up such an intricately designed dress...
Do you understand beauty at all?
Of course I do!
We've gained a full understanding of your skills and experiences.
- Is there anything else? - That's about it.
Then that's it for today. We'll notify you with results as soon as possible.
- Thanks. - Okay, thank you.
Someone else applied. He's here already.
[Hao Jie]
Hi!
What are you doing here?
Since you're holding interviews, why don't you interview me?
I'm leaving this to you.
Bye!
Did you have fun?
I'm Hao Jie. Smart and good-looking as my name indicates.
You're so annoying! All right, height, weight, age, please.
Just perfect for annoying Ouyang Qi.
I can't give you the position you're applying for.
Nan Qiao, let's be fair. My body is great, right?
And my looks are up to standard, right?
My brain needs no words.
I'd be fought over in the marriage market.
How come when it comes to Ouyang Qi, I'm basically a defective product?
It's not as if I don't have experience. But I just can't get to her.
Why?
Because...
looks, body, and brain aren't the terms of the position.
If you want to be Ouyang Qi's fiancé...
you have to be prepared never to leave her.
I've already prepared for that!
I've practically already proposed to her!
You proposed?
Did she say yes?
Of course not. She thinks only a dog can be a lifelong companion.
And that humans should live in solitude.
I've lived so many years but I'm worth less than a dog.
She's completely rejecting me.
She's actually not rejecting you.
I can tell that you really like her.
I also want her to move on with her own life.
I think she likes you too.
She probably just... doesn't know how to put Nan Si down.
I can wait for her. No matter how long it takes, I have patience.
This isn't a matter of time.
All right, your interview is over.
As for whether you'll be accepted... I'll do my best.
Okay.
Thanks!
- Did you have fun? - Yes!
You're just in time. I got you a gift.
I was going to drop it off.
Want anything to drink?
Water.
- Here. - Thanks.
Xiao Qiao, what are you doing?
I dreamed of my brother last night.
He says these things have to go back home.
Impossible.
You know it's impossible.
You think because you think of him every day, it'll become possible?
You have to start thinking of yourself.
Without these things, how do I have evidence that he existed?
Don't take them. Leave them for me.
Let me take you somewhere.
Nothing here has changed.
Take a closer look. Everything has changed.
Was that tree that tall when you first came to our house?
Even the trashcans in this neighborhood have changed.
What are you trying to say?
Didn't you learn before? Stillness is relative.
Change is absolute.
Everything around us is always changing.
I know what you're worried about.
You've changed too.
It's only the part of you with Nan Si that is static.
I've already experienced it and I've hit the limits of my ability to endure.
Closing yourself in for your whole life because you're afraid of getting hurt...
Will that make you happy?
As opposed to living in fear for the rest of my life...
I'd rather do that.
The one you should be leaving behind now is my brother.
Come on in.
Nan Si.
I've still been writing to you out of habit these few years.
I sent all my letters to your army base.
But they were all returned because there was no recipient.
I knew that would happen, but I couldn't stop myself from sending them.
Because it allows me to believe... that you're still somewhere in the world.
I won't be writing you from now on.
I heard you went for an interview at Nan Qiao's.
Yeah...
What position were you applying for?
You know.
You say it.
Your fiancé.
Have you thought it through?
I have! I've thought it through very clearly!
I can accept a probationary period. And once I'm hired, I'll never leave.
If I go back on my word, you can punish me however you like.
And?
And...
And I'll take care of your cats and dogs and everything in your life!
Okay?
Fiancé... just that?
I mean... eventually I plan on getting promoted.
- Let's go. - Where? To celebrate?
To the store. You said you'd take care of the animals.
All right!
Hurry!
Is your helmet on?
The body of the drone... feels really great in your hands.
Now, President Wen, that body you speak of was designed by yours truly.
And these four... are so thin?
Don't underestimate it. Its power and durability will exceed your imagination.
My choice in carbon fibers was great, right?
Move it!
President Wen, the camera I created is fabulous. Look!
Look at how strong the lens looks, how mesmerizing that gaze is!
Listen, its perspective is basically as wide as a hawk's.
Hey, if Jäger were a person...
it would be the perfect male idol, right?
Are you mental?
Boss, you agree, right?
Of course she does. I can even guess which guy she's thinking of.
The inspiration for the design...
