[Here to Heart]
[Episode 3]
- Xintong. - Hey, Director.
CEO Leng has been satisfied with everything up to now.
- Especially your tea snacks. - Really?
You certainly put in a lot of effort this time around.
It's what I'm supposed to do. I just did my homework and taste-tested at a few bakeries.
There's a type of cake that is extremely famous in this one shop. It has to be pre-ordered a few days in advance,
especially because of the unique peanut butter inside—
Peanut butter?
What's wrong?
CEO Leng is allergic to peanuts. He might go into anaphylactic shock from eating it!
Director Chi. Manager Du.
- Everything's already been eaten? - Xiaodai,
did CEO Leng have any reaction after eating the snacks?
Not at all, CEO Leng said they were delicious and he ate quite a few.
I'm doomed.
CEO Leng definitely ate the peanut butter. What should we do?
- Notify CEO Zhan immediately! - Where is CEO Zhan?
There were no peanuts in them, Sis Wen Nuan instructed the chef
to replace the snacks that had peanut butter inside them with something else.
Wen Nuan?
That's great.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
Thank you for your warm reception.
I feel that I have a deeper understanding of you and your company now.
I hope that this will be a good start.
Then I'll be looking forward to our next meeting
CEO Leng, I'll walk you out.
Good-bye.
He's really charismatic.
What did he say to you?
Manager Du, how did you make such a serious error?
If Wen Nuan hadn't discovered the peanut snacks and gotten them replaced...
Didn't you know that CEO Leng was allergic to peanuts?
Didn't you take note of the client's information?
CEO Zhan asked us to be totally prepared for CEO Leng's arrival.
How could you make such a low-class mistake?
If anything had actually happened, there would've been serious consequences, do you understand?
Director, please don't be angry.
I only followed Assistant Wen's instructions.
She didn't tell me about CEO Leng's allergies.
Sis Wen Nuan had printed it all out beforehand,
including a list of all of CEO Leng's preferences and the things that he must avoid. She gave it to you.
What print out? I never received any such information.
I saw it with my own eyes. Sis Wen Nuan handed the document to Manager Du.
CEO Zhan.
Assistant Wen, do you have anything to say?
I was the one in charge this time.
I should be responsible for everything that's happened.
Director Chi, the reception was outstanding.
I suggest taking this month's director bonus
and sharing it with each person from the Administration Department who was involved with this event.
Our style is to reward those who perform well,
but those who under-perform must bear the appropriate consequences.
I hope you can investigate this matter completely and provide me with a clear outcome.
Yes, CEO Zhan.
[Research and Development Center]
- Is this the R&D Department? - Yes.
CEO Leng, our Sales Department is further along back there.
This way, please.
Please.
I already told you that CEO Leng was coming.
Where did Ling Hong go? Where is he?
Linlu, the R&D Center is the core department of the company.
How can you just casually let anyone in?
I don't think it's suitable.
The Alpha bidding session is tomorrow.
- Wen Nuan, explain the schedule and the details to everyone. - Yes.
Leng Shi has initiated a new procedure for the bidding this time.
Every company has ten minutes to do a briefing on their proposal.
After that will be a Q&A round.
If we are unable to answer the questions within ten seconds,
we'll be considered eliminated.
[Edward Smith]
The following is information on the senior consultants in Leng Shi.
Based on past experience, Leng Rufeng will seek their opinions
and they will then focus on what each company specializes in.
Boss, she's awesome.
It's like knowing what's on the exam before taking it.
It's not easy to think at this level. I'll bet that you didn't know.
You are still working overtime during the weekend. So hardworking.
The bidding for Alpha is next week. There are still many things that are not completed yet.
These are the five senior consultants of Leng Shi.
I'll have to trouble you to research and organize all pertinent data on them. I need it done by the end of the day.
[Consultant List]
This...?
You don't understand?
Didn't you tell me that you're an industrial spy for Dai Zhong?
What you are holding now,
is highly confidential information obtained by our company.
I was only kidding when I said that I was a industrial spy.
But I'm not.
[Wen Nuan, CEO's Executive Assistant ]
[Leng Shi Subsidiary Company Auction Meeting: Alpha Sale Meeting] [And if the golden sun should cease]
So many people...
There are more people here than I thought there would be.
Hello, CEO Leng.
CEO Leng.
Hey!
Mr. Li.
Mr. Wang.
- Both of them have already prepared for two months. - Ah...
They both are determined to win.
CEO Leng, our company is also very prepared.
Looks like CEO Leng has a better impression of you, compared to the other companies.
That includes Dai Zhong's Zhu Linlu.
Yesterday, Leng Rufeng went to Dai Zhong
and he was prevented from entering the R&D Center by Zhu Linlu's second uncle and his cousin.
I heard that it was an unhappy event.
Didn't he tell you about this?
I was working overtime last night, CEO Zhan.
How would I know?
Let's go.
On behalf of Leng Shi Corporation, welcome to the bidding session for Alpha.
The first company bidding is Jing Xing Technologies.
Can you briefly explain (your proposal)?
I didn't expect Zhong Linlu to be so optimistic while his company is having such a serious internal conflict.
Looks like he has a good mentality. I am impressed.
Maintaining as the industry leader...
But you better be careful in this case.
Give me a background check on the man sitting to the left of Leng Rufeng.
Just a moment.
After returning from the United States, he went to work for a technological research institution.
I remember that he wrote a thesis paper that discussed the brain's memory—
Does CEO Zhan still require further information?
Help me get in-depth details of that information.
Understood.
The next company bidding is Dai Zhong.
All right. Thank you, everyone, for participating in the bidding today.
The results will be out by this afternoon.
Not bad, Wen Nuan. Getting an understanding of the consultant sitting beside Leng Rufeng is like getting a preview of the question round.
Our CEO was the one who discovered that
CEO Leng was more inclined to heed the advice of the consultant to his left.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have had enough time to do a detailed search.
Actually, I'm not sure why, but I feel really reassured seeing the both of you together today.
Hey, Boss, could it be that I'll fall out of favor now?
Manager Guan, stop joking. Both you and Manager Gao are the left and right arms of the CEO.
How can I compete?
I don't mind getting another arm.
I like having three heads and six arms. (T/N: Idiom meaning a person has extraordinary abilities)
Hey.
What?
Let's go eat lunch.
I have to work.
No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat lunch, right?
- It's all set. I'll pick you up later. - Zu Linlu!
Let's go.
Let's have lunch.
Organize all the documents used for the bidding and bring them back to the company.
Don't miss a single one.
Remember your identity.
CEO Zhan.
CEO Leng has invited you for tea.
Let's go.
CEO Zhan performed greatly today.
Your proposal was straight to the point. I'm really impressed.
I can only say that we have the same values.
It would be an honor if Qian Yu could
officially work with Leng Shi.
I would like to invite CEO Zhan to London.
All right.
- Hello, CEO Leng. - Oh, hello!
You're on time. Sit down, please.
This is the red tea that my wife concocted in London.
Thank you.
CEO Zhan. General Manager Zhu. Both of your proposals today have put me in a difficult spot.
I really can't make a decision.
Let's do it this way.
After serious consideration, I would like to invite both of you to London as my guests.
Take a tour of Alpha, get a feel for the operations there.
At the same time, we can proceed on to the final bidding.
All of our core personnel will be present there, too.
We can then provide you with the most unbiased judgement and arrangements.
What do the both of you think?
Being able to go on a business trip and getting to tour London,
I can't think of anything better than that.
Didn't I just agree to that, CEO Leng?
Good. That's settled then.
Excuse me.
Little Manager Lu, you sure have impressed me.
It's not easy to hear that from you.
Then please, continue to be impressed.
I look forward to it.
[Qian Yu Science & Technology] [Shallow Cosmos]
[0-9-0-9]
Oh, Right, in regards to Alpha,
what is your opinion?
To be honest... I have no opinion.
No opinion at all?
That's right.
Regardless of looks, money,
and a status that matches yours, your boyfriend
also has a pretty decent job. You have everything.
Is there still anything... capable of moving this iron and stone heart of yours?
There's still something.
What's that?
Sleep.
Ever since I was promoted to the 66th floor,
I haven't woken up naturally.
I have been working.
Are you playing with me?
I'm not.
Xiao Nuan.
I went to Qian Yu to pick you up and left empty-handed.
I thought about you all the way here. Have you not thought of me?
You did that on purpose today, didn't you?
You sure are smart.
No wonder Zhan Nanxian assigns you to important tasks, huh?
Haven't you heard of getting punished by the gods if you destroy a person's rice bowl? (T/N: rice bowl refers to someone's livelihood)
I already have a golden rice bowl prepared for you.
Thank you. Even though my current rice bowl cannot be compared to the golden rice bowl of Dai Zhong,
I'm comfortable with it. I won't trouble you then, General Manager Lu.
Xiao Nuan, open the gate. Open the gate, Xiao Nuan. Xiao Nuan, open the gate.
Open the gate, Xiao Nuan!
- Xiao Nuan, Xiao Nuan. Open the gate. - The neighbors are all asleep. Tone it down!
You're going to be the death of me.
Thank you.
Lock the gate.
I already have so many things to worry about.
Zhu Linlu, please give me a break.
This is no good, you're too biased.
You're only concerned about Zhan Nanxian winning or losing. Aren't you going to congratulate me, too?
You—
Aren't you curious,
about what method I used to get back to the same starting point as Zhan Nanxian?
I really want to ask you this.
I thought that your company's Research and Development Department refused a visit from CEO Leng.
What exactly did you do to turn that around?
[ Three Days Earlier ] We neglected our honored guest today. So, I'm personally sending you back to your hotel
as a way of trying to make it up to you.
Looks like General Manager Zhu has something to say to me.
CEO Leng, you've found me out.
What happened today at Dai Zhong, I'm sure you've already evaluated us based on that.
As I said before,
every company has their own corporate culture
and their own unique way of doing things.
I understand and respect that.
Indeed. But you don't agree.
Speaking of this,
even as the general manager of Dai Zhong,
I don't agree with it either.
Dai Zhong needs to be restructured and it also needs to be further developed.
If Dai Zhong doesn't redevelop, then it's doomed.
The crucial part of this redevelopment
is the Alpha project.
Is Alpha really that important?
Alpha might not be that important to other companies.
They wait a couple of years and find better projects.
But for Dai Zhong, time is both critical and important.
That's why I am willing to sacrifice more compared to other companies
in order to get Alpha.
To be able to collaborate with you, CEO Leng,
I am talking about a long-term strategic partnership
to create an international technological park.
I hope that you will agree to it.
It's an ambitious plan.
So... look at how hard it was for me
to persuade Leng Rufeng.
I've used up all my reserve energy to make my girlfriend happy.
So the things that you are doing on the surface cover your real intentions?
On one hand, you're trying to get in the good graces of Leng Rufeng
and on the other, during the bidding,
you watched your competitors submit their proposals outwardly while treating it like a joke.
In the end, didn't you forget your old rival, Qian Yu?
You've done well. Your chess match sure is good.
You can't say that yet.
How can I persuade Leng Rufeng with just a few words?
I did so much,
just to be on the same playing field as Zhan Nanxian.
Am I right? In order to begin at same starting line,
I used my abilities
to win an opportunity to challenge him to another round.
It's just that simple.
To sum it up,
it's a wrestling match between you two bosses.
Why did you drag me into it?
I am still not finished with you regarding this.
Let me analyze it for you.
Think of it this way. First of all,
Zhan Nanxian is no longer the Zhan Nanxian you knew.
He's an expert in mind games.
You entered Qian Yu as his assistant.
How can this have nothing to do with you then?
That's to say,
look back and the shore is at hand (i.e. repent and be saved). Come back into my embrace.
It's the best choice under the circumstances.
What rubbish are you spouting again?
- I'm not— - Zhu Linlu,
go home. Go home. Go home.
And stop with the nonsense.
I am not forgiving you.
- Go home. - You're so anxious.
Go on. Good night!
Rest early!
Rest—
Are you playing with me?
I'm not.
♫ It’s the snowflakes that drift piece by piece into my eyes ♫
♫ It's the flames that glow and dim, never giving up ♫
♫ Exhaling on both hands ♫
Xiao Nuan, Xiao Nuan! Wait for me.
Stop being angry. I'll apologize, alright?
How were you wrong?
I—where I went wrong...
I shouldn't lose my temper with you and I shouldn't shout at you.
- I shouldn't let you get jealous— - Alright, alright. It's good that you know you're wrong.
Then you must guarantee that you'll never get angry with me.
I guarantee it.
Okay, then. I'll forgive you today. Treat me to something nice.
Okay, let's go.
♫ ...empathize that fate is like a willow tree ♫
♫ Once the wind blows, the leaves sways as it is ♫
♫ The feeling of missing you is the warmest sorrow, like a pair of wings ♫
♫ that makes me unable to stop and fly further, reminiscing in the past ♫

♫ Bliss will always be by your side, glowing like a sun ♫
♫ In the ocean full of people, we once bumped into each other ♫
♫ it's the waves that will keep crashing in our hearts ♫
Did you know
that Wen Nuan has called me at night during these past few years?
Xiao Nuan became very stressed when she was studying in London.
So she sleepwalks.
I'm sorry that she bothered you.
Xiao Nuan did it subconsciously.
♫ I held back my tears, walking forward yet looking back ♫
♫ Not being able to love is the furthest exile ♫
♫ Nevertheless, being unable to help but love is the happiest bind ♫
Xintong, do you know why I've asked to come here today?
Director, I really didn't receive any such documents.
Don't listen to their one-sided statements. That Ding Xiaodai and Wen Nuan are allies.
It has come to this and you're still trying to argue about it.
This time, if it hadn't been for Wen Nuan discovering your negligence in time and salvaging the situation,
you would have already been fired from the company.
You heard what CEO Zhan said that day.
He said that this matter had to be investigated thoroughly,
so that an innocent person isn't accused wrongly or a person that needs to be punished isn't let off.
I know,
based on your abilities, you wouldn't usually make such a low-class mistake.
But since the mistake was made, you should admit to it.
Don't add on another mistake.
Director, how will the company settle this?
This matter has already been investigated.
The company will follow its standard policy for such things.
I've worked in Qian Yu for so many years.
Even with no merits, I should be given credit for my hard work.
Director, you must help me. Without this job, I have nothing.
I can understand how you feel.
Before the company takes any action,
you should take this chance to think on your actions.
Do some self-reflection.
Maybe CEO Zhan will act after a full consideration of the actual situation.
After all, nothing serious happened.
Implement the plan soon.
I'll get going.
CEO Zhan.
May I speak with you?
By the way,
I've heard about the matter relating to Du Xintong.
It seems like the company has already investigated it thoroughly.
The company is waiting to deal with her.
I heard about it today too, but I'm not sure how she'll be dealt with.
Why are you worrying about her?
Did you forget?
Last time when CEO Leng nearly ate the peanut butter,
you were almost framed for it by her.
That's in the past now.
Besides, CEO Leng is fine and has returned home.
Sis Wen Nuan is indeed very gracious.
I like it a lot.
Come. Let me give you a hug of admiration.
- Ding Xiaodai, stop it! - Hey!
I won't put in any good words for you when I meet with Manager Guan.
Do you despise me? Why are you not letting me hug you?
I don't want to! Hey!
Stop it!
Nanxian... I'm sorry.
What did you call me just now?
You're at work, not on a playground.
I-I'm sorry, CEO Zhan.
I was the one who pushed Sis Wen Nuan, then she bumped into you.
It's okay.
Didn't you have something to say to me? Come to my office.
Yes.
- Sis, are you okay? - I'm fine, I'm fine.
Let's go back to work.
CEO Zhan, Director Chi has spoken to me.
I made a lowly mistake during the reception for CEO Leng.
I admit...
I panicked, that's why I tried to push the blame onto Assistant Wen.
I will apologize to her.
I really know that I was in the wrong.
Are you sure?
I have been with the company for over four years.
I started off as an entry level employee and worked my way up to where I am today.
I've really worked hard.
I hope that you can give me another chance,
a chance to rectify what I've done wrong.
Actually, in Qian Yu,
we consider you a senior employee.
You should know that I'm a person who's fair in administering rewards and punishments.
CEO Zhan.
The blunder that you've made,
indicates that the training our company gives to its managers is lacking.
How about this?
Put aside all the work you have on hand.
Go through retraining
alongside the new employees for three months.
After the training,
I'll arrange a new job for you.
Pass this on to Chi Biqia.
Just say that I personally arranged it.
Work hard.
I believe that with your spirit,
given time, you can definitely help Qian Yu generate more profits.
CEO Zhan...
You may leave now.
Oh, right. Help me by calling Wen Nuan in, please.
I'll leave first then, CEO Zhan.
CEO Zhan is asking for you.
Look at how shallow you behaved just now.
Is that how you should behave when you're on the 66th floor?
I really dislike young girls like you.
You act silly and cute just because you're young.
If you have so much time, you should try and increase your sales.
Manager Du.
Yes, what is it?
This is the 66th floor. If Xiaodai has made any mistakes,
you shouldn't be the one lecturing her.
Please apologize to her.
Older Sis Wen Nuan.
I knew that you were not a simple person when we were competing for the assistant spot.
What? You think you are so high and mighty now that you're in that seat?
Not at all, you're welcome to take that seat.
Are you okay?
I'm to blame. If it weren't for me messing around,
you wouldn't have been embarrassed, Older Sis Wen Nuan.
She's just jealous because you're young.
Older Sis Wen Nuan, that was a really cool move!
Carry on with your work, I'm going up.
Come in.
CEO Zhan.
Come over here.
You can tolerate things quite well.
I'm not that spoiled.
Du Xintong was being unreasonable. She bruised your arm,
yet you've tolerated her time after time. But when it comes to standing up for Ding Xiaodai,
you are quite daring.
Ding Xiaodai always looks happy and naive,
but she's very kind and innocent and has no bad intentions.
If I don't speak up for her,
she won't say a word.
Don't you think that Ding Xiaodai
resembles your younger self?
I was not that easily bullied.
Why did you ask for me?
Right.
You have to attend a dinner party with me.
Dinner party? I thought that Manager Gao was the one who always goes with you.
He went to Nanjing for work so he can't go.
You don't want to go?
No.
You have to go, even if you don't want to.
You are currently my assistant, this is your job.
Also, you can use this opportunity to get to know the rest of the bosses
to make contacting them more convenient.
Understood.
Xintong, where have you been?
I've been assigned to training with the newbies.
What? Training with the newbies? What happened?
Don't panic. I'll come and figure out the situation.
I am about to get off work. Let's talk after that.
Don't panic, don't panic.
Training?
Miss Yixin?
Manager Pan.
It's really you. I just sent off a client.
I turned back and saw a pretty, yet familiar silhouette.
I was just guessing...
May I sit here?
- Please. - Thank you.
Where's CEO Zhan? I don't see him with you.
He's been quite busy lately.
Qian Yu's work has always been complicated and busy.
But, I feel that it's wrong not to accompany his girlfriend, just because of work.
You must be going to the charity dinner with CEO Zhan tonight, right?
Of course.
- Are you Miss Wen? - Yes, I am.
This is a gown sent by Mr. Zhan.
- For me? - Yes.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
- Please close the gate after you. - Okay.
Thank you.

Sent from Qian Yu?
Sis, what do you think of this one?
This one? I think that the red one is better.
I think the red one is better, too.
Good.
