A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
EPISODE 47
I can't believe what I saw last night. What era are we in now?
How could this happen?
Si's mom...
Is she crazy?
Maybe his mom has gone crazy.
Crazy with what? Money?
The Daoming family has loads of it.
Do they really need to merge the companies now?
What if it is very urgent?
Why?
Why is it so urgent?
Maybe Daoming Group is doomed.
Lei, why do you say that?
The employee who stabbed Si
said that he was treated poorly by the Daoming Group hotel.
That's why he took revenge on Si.
Maybe all the hotels are doing poorly.
If that's the case,
then they have a huge problem.
Can we do anything to help?
The most urgent thing now
is to keep Si from doing anything he'll regret because of this.
How do we do that?
Find Shancai.
Shancai, have you eaten?
You don't have to comfort me.
Just tell me.
How is Si doing right now?
Tell me.
I'm prepared.
Didn't you come to tell me the bad news?
I can tell from your eyes.
Shancai.
According to Mrs. Daoming's plans,
Xiaozi and Si are going to get married soon.
Shancai.
You know that this isn't what I want.
Then...
What do you want me to say?
Congratulations?
Xiaozi.
I can't say that.
I know.
I know you won't believe anything I say.
But Shancai,
can I ask you a favor?
Please, let go of Si.
Xiaozi...
We all know that this wedding is going to happen.
When Si found out,
he didn't eat or drink.
I see what's happening to him.
He's getting worse and worse.
We all tried to talk sense into him. We all did.
But he wouldn't listen to us.
If this continues,
he will die.
Please.
I beg you. Just...
Just talk to him
and tell him to stop hurting himself.
He'll listen to you.
But his mom would never let me see him.
If you're willing to give up,
his mom will let you see him.
Lei.
Even you're trying to make me give up on him?
No. We know Si too well.
Once he makes a decision, he'll do anything to make it happen.
If you don't go, he'll fight with his mother to the end.
Maybe his willpower can beat his mom,
but his body can't.
Shancai, please forgive us for being selfish.
We want you to see him
not to get your boyfriend back,
but to save him from dying.
Shancai,
do you know
that you're the only person who can save Si?
Because...
he doesn't listen to any of us. He only listens to you.
I know this is unfair to you, but...
I'm begging you.
Xiaozi.
Promise me one thing.
When you and Si get married,
don't invite me to the wedding.
Because...
I've already given him to you.
Let's go, Xiaozi.
If you're there,
his mom will let me see him.
I'm not alone.
I have everyone's support and encouragement.
I'm not fighting alone.
Xiaozi.
You're about to become a part of our family.
So you have to follow our family rules.
In the future, don't make friends with lowly people.
It'll affect your image.
Do you understand?
Straighten your back. Stand firmly.
I won't be defeated by those cold eyes.
I'm here to see Si.
Where is he? Please let me see him.
Mrs. Daoming,
I brought Shancai here so that she can talk some sense into Si.
No need.
Mrs. Daoming, please consider it.
Maybe Shancai could talk to him and he would start eating.
This might be our last resort. Why can't we try it?
I can't let her seduce my son again.
Shancai has given up on him.
She said so herself. She'll make it clear to Si.
Mrs. Daoming, please let them meet.
I won't let them meet.
Fine. That's okay. Let them talk through the door.
Mrs. Daoming, think about it.
I'm marrying Si next week.
Unless I'm sure that they've cut it off,
I'll worry about marrying him.
Please let me talk to him. I'll leave after that.
You go with her.
They can only talk through the door.
After she's done, send her out.
Thank you, ma'am.
Let's go.
What is it?
I want to see him on my own.
Can I?
I'll only talk through the door.
Don't worry.
Sure.
Daoming Si.
It's Shancai.
Shancai?
Can you hear me?
Shancai.
You idiot.
Why aren't you eating?
Why are you doing something so stupid?
Is it because of me?
You always say I'm an idiot,
but you're the idiot.
Maybe...
You should just listen to your mom
and marry Xiaozi.
That would be nice
because Xiaozi really likes you.
But...
I never really liked you.
I'm an ordinary girl.
I wanted to marry you
just for the fame and money.
For the glamour.
Did you hear that?
I did.
Go on.
When we first started dating,
it was pretty fun.
But towards the end,
it started getting complicated.
I couldn't take it anymore.
If only we had never started dating.
That would make things easier, right?
I thought about it for a long time.
And I want to tell you that
ever since the beginning,
I never really liked you.
Daoming Si,
do you know how ridiculous you were?
Dong Shancai.
You're...
so cute.
How can you
be so stupid and cute?
I'm really...
happy.
What's this nonsense?
Do you even know
what's going on right now?
Shut up.
Use your stupid little head
and try to think about
everything I've ever said to you.
Si...
Calm down
and think about it.
Think about those bad times we went through.
And how my love never wavered.
I haven't forgotten.
I believe
that you haven't forgotten about it either.
Dong Shancai!
I like you.
I don't know why.
Even I'm surprised by how much I like you.
No matter where I go, you're the only person that I see.
Shancai.
I know I'm annoying.
If you want to run away, I'll chase after you.
If you run to Mars,
I'll go there too.
You stupid boy!
Why didn't you fight back?
If I fought back,
then I would really lose.
Can you stop crying?
Just the few of them...
They...
They could never beat me.
But seeing you cry
makes me worried.
My life has no meaning without you.
When I'm awake, you're all I think of.
When I close my eyes, you're in my dreams.
I can only think of one thing.
I can't live without you.
Shancai.
I've always done what I wanted to do before.
But I don't know what to do anymore.
Please tell me.
What should I do for me to continue loving you?
Shancai's mine.
I can't let her be with another guy.
I want to win her heart.
Regardless if it's my mom...
Even if the whole world wants me to give up on her,
I'd never leave Shancai.
I never thought about giving up.
Not in the past, not now,
not in the future.
Your visit today
has proven that it's worth it.
Because...
only the Shancai who loves me more than anything else,
who worries about me suddenly disappearing,
would say those hurtful words to me.
I was so weak that I couldn't move,
but now I feel so much energy inside me.
You're giving me strength.
In this whole wide world,
only you...
I need Shancai by my side.
Only then can I keep going.
Daoming Si.
I understand.
From now on, I won't lie to my heart anymore.
There's a wall between us,
but I'll always be on your side.
No matter what you do,
I won't let you be alone.
I'll always be by your side.
Didn't you say that
if I run away,
you'll chase after me?
Even if I run to Mars,
you'll still chase me down.
Hey.
Is he willing to stop acting like that? Is he willing to eat now?
He's not listening to you either?
If that's the case,
you can go now.
Hey, Shancai.
Shancai.
I'm sorry about that.
Xiaozi.
I don't feel bad.
I'm actually glad
because I've never been so sure about what I want.
I'm sorry. I couldn't convince him
because I understand what he's doing.
Maybe you don't understand,
but I do.
So I'll stand by him.
If he doesn't eat,
I won't eat too.
If he doesn't come out,
I'll keep waiting for him.
Shancai!
Don't be silly like Si.
Xiaozi, you know how I am.
Don't think that I'll pity you if you do that.
Mrs. Daoming.
I'm not the one who needs sympathy.
It's you.
Shancai.
You should eat something.
You've been here for so long.
Eat something.
At least drink some water. You can't go on like this.
Whatever Si does,
I'll do the same.
If he stops eating and drinking, I will too.
To the end of the world,
to hell or heaven,
I'll be with him.
Is this what we really want?
This is Si and Shancai's mutual decision.
You're in a rush to see me. What is it?
How can you be so cruel?
Your son is starving himself in the room.
The girl your son loves
is standing outside starving herself too.
Do you have a heart of stone?
Is this what you wanted to talk about?
If Mrs. Yu didn't tell me, you would've never told me, right?
Why would I tell you?
So that you can help your brother escape?
Did you forget that you wanted to elope with someone too?
What happened then?
The man who promised to be with you forever
ran away like a coward.
If I didn't show you what a wimp that man was,
I wouldn't know how your life would've turned out.
My situation was different from Si.
I can't see what's different.
No matter what threats or tortures you use,
you can't defeat Shancai.
She's braver than me.
Are you standing on her side just to get revenge on me?
No.
I just don't want to see you make the same mistake.
Don't forget.
Your brother is the only son of Daoming Group.
Daoming Group's future is his future.
I arranged the best path for him.
Would you want me to give your brother a company that has failed?
The path you arranged isn't his. It's your company's path.
Mom, why didn't you have more babies?
Whenever the company is in trouble, you could sell another one.
Are you done?
You're a great businesswoman.
But, you don't know how to be a mother.
You don't understand.
Let me tell you one more time.
I'm not just playing the role of a mother.
Si,
if you don't eat something,
your face which you think is handsome will turn into a skull.
I think I'll look good
even with a skull for my head.
That's not true.
Get up now. I'm taking you to dinner.
I don't want to see you like this.
And?
What do you mean?
Should I accept Mom's arrangments
just like you?
Will I marry Xiaozi
and forget about the girl I love?
Should I?
We'll find a way.
I know.
But, Zhuang,
I'm doing this to let Mom understand.
I'm not giving in.
I want her to know
how serious I take this relationship.
Do you understand?
Yes.
Zhuang,
stop persuading me.
I'm happy.
Because...
Shancai is on my side.
I'm really glad that you have someone
who makes you happy.
So? What did you find out?
I heard someone in the finance sector said that
Daoming Group was expanding too fast.
It can't keep up with new trends now.
That's why they lost so much money.
This is probably the reason those employees were unhappy.
She wants Xiaozi in the family
because Xiaozi's dad is trying to take advantage of their company
while they're in rough waters.
But he's worried that Daoming Feng will retaliate.
That's a strategy in the business world.
Who would've thought
that Si's family was in so much trouble?
No wonder Mrs. Daoming was forced to use such extreme measures.
But I don't understand.
Is that the only way to help Daoming Group get back on track?
Of course not.
I think Si's mom doesn't know what to do.
Because she's lost her direction.
A successful businesswoman like her?
She doesn't trust anyone.
Her company was going in the wrong direction,
and it couldn't find new goals for this era.
But, we can't find those goals for her.
Who said so?
Don't forget.
When I was 18, I made my first million in stock trading.
Actually, I already have a plan.
I'll marry Shancai first,
then I'll tell my mom the secret plan I've long prepared.
And turn the Daoming Group into a hotel group with a new concept.
What's your secret plan?
Who has Si's email address?
I think...
Si may have a good idea.
I do.
Stop delivering meals.
Si won't eat anything.
Stop preparing food for him.
