[Between]
Are you really planning on selling La'Favz?
The only reason why I came to La'Favz was to sell it.
I'm happy at La'Favz.
And with this group of noisy colleagues,
La'Favz feels like home.
So, you all feel it's better to stay?
Of course!
About all of this,
I'm only a helper, too.
I'm not the final decision maker.
The people that you should've protected
are the employees who can lose their jobs any moment, not that high up and powerful Luo Chengkai!
If it's the you from before, you would have blown the whistle. Now that you're in love,
you've lost your principles.
We have a problem.
The company's being sold, and we're being notified through the news!
It's over now. With a new boss, will we all get fired?
I'll surely be the first to be laid off!
Wheel of fortune means you will have a new start.
Maybe your work or relationship will experience new development.
After listening to Anna's analysis, it doesn't seem that bad.
Everyone, cheer up. Stop sulking.
Oh! I don't want to live anymore. I need to buy two packs of beer,
otherwise I'll have insomnia tonight.
All right, regardless of what happens, get home safely.
Bye-bye.
See you tomorrow. Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye. - Bye-bye.
Xiaoqing.
Is everyone okay?
No.
Didn't you say that nothing will change?
Why is it that even though the company hasn't been sold yet,
everything feels different?
Were you the one that released the news about La'Favz being sold?
Yes.
Why did you do that?
You've been strict on me since the day you entered the company,
but I want to thank you.
Your strictness allowed me to quickly become a better supervisor.
I know now that
to be a good supervisor, I have to protect my employees.
I'm sorry.
I choose to stand with my colleagues.
This is my way of protecting them.
Even if the news is released, it won't affect the sale.
La'Favz will still be sold.
I can't decide if the company will be sold or not.
The only thing I can decide is whether I should let the employees know about it sooner or later.
They've contributed so much to the company. If they were kept in the dark
and were the last to know, it'd be very hurtful.
Did you know that Charlie's mom keeps pestering him about changing jobs?
But Charlie said that a lower salary is fine.
He wants to continue at La'Favz
because he's happy at the company.
You know that if Mibao doesn't stay
and she doesn't find a new job within three months,
she won't be able to repay her school loans.
I've already told you.
The employees' rights will receive the most complete protection.
Everyone will be able to remain in their current positions. Nothing will change.
It has changed. It really has changed!
We all trusted you,
yet you've betrayed all of our trust.
We originally thought that you'd be able to manage La'Favz better than before.
We never imagined that you came with the intent to sell from the very first day you step foot into the company.
We've worked hard and stayed up late to come up with proposals, raise sales, and shoot catalogues.
We're tired like dogs every day.
We've done so much,
but in the end, we are just tools to raise the value of La'Favz.
You used us like pawns.
We were never in your future plans.
I've already said that
I came to La'Favz just to sell it.
I only followed through with my original plans to complete my multi-phased mission.
I'm not at fault.
Then, what did the employees do wrong?
Why are we being sold along with the company?
We spent every day with each other.
Did you not develop any feelings for your colleagues?
We've experienced so much together.
Don't you feel any reluctance?
We are your partners.
If I was this emotional,
I wouldn't be the Luo Chengkai I am today.
You know what the biggest problem is?
It isn't you selling the company.
It's that, after all of this, I've realized that
you're still choosing to face this problem with the same coldness as before.
No matter how hard I work,
it seems that I can't change you.
Even a slight change isn't possible.
Aren't you tired and annoyed from working all the time?
Are you happy treating everyone like chess pieces?
Li Lian sells sandwiches. Older Sister Zhixin designs clothes.
Qu Zijun takes photos. What about you?
Besides raising sales, what else have you accomplished?
Nothing. Nothing at all!
That's right. I'm this type of person.
My apologies for disappointing you.
But I also have to remind you,
that you're the one that thought I was a good person.
Why is it that because I didn't meet the expectations you had of me in your mind,
you're questioning me?
I've never changed from the beginning to the end.
I didn't in the past,
I won't now, and I won't in the future either!
Do you understand now?
Su Xiaoqing.
♫ I remember you said you loved me ♫
♫ Happiness has no end ♫
♫ Never thought about how long love will last ♫
♫ Thought there will always be a future ♫
♫ A pair of tender hands ♫
♫ That wiped tears for me but has now let me go ♫
Hello?
Mom, when is the interview for the pharmaceutical company you mentioned last time?
Right. I'll go.
Boss, two chicken drumsticks.
Nevermind, just one.
Hey! The bigger one.
And give me a king oyster mushroom.
Hello?
Mom, the news isn't real. Nowadays, all the screenwriters
are unemployed and have gone on to become reporters. It's all nonsense.
The company's in good condition. Don't worry.
I'm bringing back some midnight snacks.
Wait for me. I'll be home in a bit.
Okay. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
My mom keeps telling me to come home to go on blind dates.
I've always played dead.
Seems like I'll really have to make a trip back home this time.
If there's anyone as handsome as Zijun, remember to pass them to me.
Please, how can there be any handsome men in the countryside?
Okay, fine.
Are you trying to start a war between the north and south?
I think I'll just go on a friend-meeting site and write a post to make friends.
I haven't been in a relationship for a long time.
Everyone I've met hasn't been for me.
Women have it better.
If you're unemployed, you can just marry a rich guy.
Men have a tough life.
What is it now? After starting a fight between the north and south, you want to start a fight between men and women?
Let me tell you. It's two against one. You have no chance of winning.
When Xiaoqing comes back, you better properly apologize to her. Do you hear?
Do you hear?
I know that I was really mean to her yesterday,
- but— - But? But what?
But I'm not mentally ready to apologize yet.
- Do you need to be mentally prepared to apologize? Tch! - Tch!
Hey, Xiaoqing. You're back?
Hey, Xiaoqing.
Hurry up and apologize. Show your chivalry. Do you hear?
Do you hear?
Do you want some?
Are you angry?
I don't have any right to be angry.
But you're right. As a supervisor,
I should've protected my employees.
If you didn't give me that push,
I probably wouldn't have had the courage to do it.
You were the one who released the news of La'Favz being sold?
Uh... Did Luo Chengkai get angry?
I'm tired. I'm going to sleep. Good night.
Su Xiaoqing!
I'm sorry.
Hello?
Director Wan. You're back in Taiwan?
Our savior is back!
Didn't you say you were going to rest for a month?
[Resignation Letter]
You're switching to another company?
If I said I'm retiring, would you believe it?
You have such high ambition for your career,
can you bear to retire so early?
Before, I thought that I would be reluctant,
but after going to Europe,
I've realized that there's nothing that I can't let go of.
I got back the family that I valued the most.
I realized that, whether it's love
or family, they all need to be cared for.
And you have to take care of it for all of your life.
You haven't signed the contract yet, right?
It's not too late to turn back. Press on the brakes.
This isn't something that I can decide on alone.
I know. Before I came, I already spoke with the chairman.
I also know why Leyan wanted to do this.
I don't think that she's at fault.
But you're different.
Me? What's wrong with me?
You clearly had other choices.
How can the smart Luo Chengkai
not think of it?
What do you mean?
Having come to La'Favz for some period of time, what do you feel?
When I first came,
I really thought they were a bunch of low-rated, inferior troops.
My boss often uses me as a shield.
My underlings don't treat me as their supervisor.
I don't want to be a supervisor anymore!
How did this happen?
I don't know either. Maybe its because we published the statement.
You published the statement?!
Even if you couldn't contain the situations with the statement,
you shouldn't have added fuel to the fire. You call this a statement?
Is this your crisis management SOP?
So, the CEO thinks that I'm the problem?
Does the Marketing Department not have any responsibility in this?
We sell every designer's clothes the same way.
You lost to Summer today. Why aren't you reflecting on yourself?
The Marketing Department will not carry this responsibility!
You guys all think that this isn't your problem
and that the final result has nothing to do with you.
This world doesn't revolve around a single person.
Work that's done by one person is definitely not the best proposal.
But with time, everyone has improved.
Especially Su Xiaoqing.
She's now able to take charge and even contend against me.
She's not the only one who's improved. You have, too.
Me?
Unbeknownst to yourself, you've also
become the real CEO of La'Favz.
The old you
wouldn't have cared this much about employees' rights when transferring ownership of the company.
You've changed them,
but they have also changed you a bit.
Before, I didn't concede, but now I think
that La'Favz's CEO position truly does belong to you.
No one is more suitable for this position than you.
I never thought
that I would hear those words from you.
To me, that's the greatest assurance.
Really,
Boss.
Wow, haven't heard you call me that in so long.
I know that, for the chairman,
Leyan must sell La'Favz.
But I don't understand
why the person who buys it can't be you.
I think that the person you are now
would be the perfect owner for La'Favz.
Please, come in.
Does it still hurt?
Hurts like hell. You can't do that next time.
I don't have another company for you to sell anyway.
So, do you forgive your dad?
Then, have you forgiven me?
What do you think?
Enmity between a father and daughter doesn't carry to the next day.
But...
I've worked hard for La'Favz my entire life.
It's easier said than done to let go of it.
Dad,
the hard work you put into it will never disappear.
Even if the owner changes, you'll always be listed as the founder on Wikipedia.
Just like when people mention Apple, they always think of Steve Jobs.
I think that I still need some time.
But after chatting with your mom all night,
she thinks that you're right. All these years,
we've neglected you and ourselves.
I only found out yesterday
that when your mom was young,
she was into French movies. She's always wanted to learn French.
So, I was thinking, in a few days,
we'll both go look at schools
and live in France for a while.
- Really? - Yeah.
That's great!
Hey, Jackson.
Oh, okay.
Okay, see you. Bye.
What happened?
The buyer just called saying he has to leave the country tomorrow,
so the signing of the contract will be today instead.
You go.
Dad.
Thank you for always supporting my decisions.
I love you.

Meiyun, hurry up and help me calculate
how much I still need with all of my assets in order to buy La'Favz.
You want to buy La'Favz?!
That's right.
If my savings,
real estate, and stocks are all sold, how much do I still need?
- Okay. I got it. Wait for my call. - Okay.
I spoke with Leyan.
I understand her filial piety.
Just let her be.
Leyan told me that when the company is sold,
she'll find time to take me and her mother to Africa for a vacation.
You guys reconciled? That's great.
If that's the case, then there's something that I want to discuss with the chairman.
Tell me.
Since La'Favz will be sold anyway,
can you consider selling it to me?
You want to buy La'Favz?

Hello? Meiyun, what is it?
Jackson's going abroad, so Leyan's signing the contract earlier.
La'Favz has been sold already.
I already know.
Hey, Xiaoqing. I'm making a midnight snack. Do you want some?
No, thanks.
What's wrong?
So that's what happened. No wonder you're this depressed.
CEO knows that I was the one who told Director Wan to come back
and the one who released the news of La'Favz being sold.
I can tell he is really disappointed.
But you were also disappointed that he was secretly selling the company.
Both of you guys were wrong. You each get a yellow card.
So, you guys are even.
You can't cancel out in this situation.
Then, what? Do you guys want to break up?
Come, we have to match our receipts. (T/N: In Taiwan, receipts are also lottery tickets)
Oh, right! We have to match our receipts. We're recently in need of money.
Let's first put this out there. If we get jackpot, we're splitting the prize evenly between the three of us.
That way we won't fight about who bought the Yakult and the rice balls.
You dare to say that? You're the one that has a private stash.
Sign the pledge.
- Sign. - Sign.
Hey, Su Xiaoqing. Are you afraid of signing?
Sign.
We didn't get it.
Ones, tens, thousands, ten thousands.
NT$97,600?! Who was this wasteful? Be honest!
Wang Ziren, it was you. Right?
Do you want me to cut off your finger?
I'm not that rich.
La'Favz?
Who bought NT$97,600 worth of clothes at La'Favz?
Is this for me?
You saw the decimal point wrongly, right?
Yeah, it should be NT$976.
Let me double check.
Do you think I'm that easy to fool?
It's from May. Wasn't that the Mother's Day sale?
And it was at Aunt Liu's store.
I know!
Li Lian, it must've been you! You wanted to help my sales, right?
That's not right. If you spent that much money, how come I didn't see you wear any new clothes?
You were afraid I'd find out, so you hid the clothes
and were afraid to wear them.
Li Lian, I'm so touched!
No, it's not what you think!
You don't have to lie anymore. You're a good friend.
Where did you hide the clothes? In your room, right? Let's go look!
No, it really wasn't me, Xiaoqing.
Stop pretending. If you keep this act up, it'll be really fake.
It really wasn't.
It wasn't?
Then, who was it?
What are you guys doing?
The situation has been revealed.
I didn't kill the person.
I didn't think he'd understand us.
You have a facial nerve disorder?
If you have something to say, just say it. I can't read your minds.
What the heck?
What is this?
That's what I want to ask you. What is this?
Those two big-mouths, they're in charge of revealing secrets.
I forced them to tell me.
Why did you spend so much money?
That time, you even threw a wet blanket on me, calling me bird brain.
And you even said that the B&M stores would get closed in two weeks anyway, that it wouldn't make a difference,
but in the end, you helped my sales behind my back.
What for? You look mean but have a kind heart. You even pretend to be a villain.
Hey, what do you mean, "look mean"? Do you know how to have a conversation?
Don't change the subject.
Don't you know that I'll feel bad?
So now you know of Brother Zijun's goodness, huh?
Shouldn't you treat me better from now on?
I've always treated you well.
Do you want some midnight snacks?
Do you want salty crispy chicken, salted chicken, or fried chicken? I'll go buy it.
Brother Zijun, order me around as much as you like. No problem.
I was fixing photos all day, so I don't really have an appetite.
But... my back's a bit sore.
My neck's a bit stiff.
Your back hurts? Let me take care of it.
Boss Qu, how's the pressure? Does it need to be harder?
Tch! Are you trying to tickle me?
Then, I'll use more strength. Is this okay?
Okay, okay! That's enough for today.
You're as skinny as floss. If people didn't know, they'd think I'm abusing child labor laws.
Come, sit here.
What's wrong?
I didn't help you so that you'd feel indebted.
So, once you step outside this room, forget about this. Okay?
Su Xiaoqing, I didn't do this so you'd repay me.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked Wang Ziren and Li Lian to help me keep this a secret.
Just remember the person that truly treats you well.
That'll be enough. Got it?
Got it. Brother Zijun treats me the best.
All right, it's late. Go sleep.
Also, when you go outside, tell the two being punished with kneeling to get up.
I threatened them to make them keep it a secret. They were victims in this, too.
Okay. Whatever Brother Zijun says today counts.
I'm going. Good night.
I'm sure that each of you knows very well that I gathered everyone here today
to announce some very important news.
La'Favz's ownership has officially been transferred to MJ Corporation.
Once the transferring process is complete, I'll be leaving La'Favz.
I'm very fortunate to have worked along with a group of talented colleagues.
I'll never forget this period of time.
Stop pretending. If you really feel any reluctance,
then why did you choose to sell the company behind our backs?
Did you not know that selling the company equates to betraying all of the employees?
I'm very sorry.
I don't accept.
Chengkai, something's wrong.
What happened?
I just heard that Jackson sold the company to K&D Group.

I'm innately allergic to pretense. I'm taking sick leave.
Regretfully, our fate will end here.
If you run into me one day on the streets,
you're welcome to say hi to me.
Of course, if you want to pretend that you don't know me, I'll understand.
Chengkai, something's wrong.
What happened?
I just heard that Jackson sold La'Favz to K&D Group.
Let's adjourn this meeting.
MJ bought La'Favz
and immediately sold it.
Why?
What exactly happened?
We're still trying to understand the situation.
I made several calls to Jackson, but he didn't pick up.
Keep calling. When you have something, immediately contact me.
Why did MJ Corporation resell La'Favz to K&D Group?
K&D has always been La'Favz's main rival.
They've always wanted to buy La'Favz.
What I'm most afraid of right now is that
this entire thing had been planned.
What do you mean? I don't understand.
If Jackson buying La'Favz wasn't accidental, but was inevitable,
then the employee rights and other additional signing conditions,
then I'm afraid that... it's all become a bounced check.
How did this happen?
The more I think about it, the more fishy it is.
This entire situation is weird.
Perhaps signing the contract in advance
was also part of his plan.
I hope that I've overthought this.
Try contacting Jackson again.
The phone you dialed is not turned on.
His phone is off.
Why would K&D spend big money and buy La'Favz from MJ Corporation?
Their past two years of sales greatly surpass ours.
Hey, you're such a rookie.
Let me, the manager, tell you why.
Because they couldn't gain any more market shares,
they changed their method. That is, they're directly consuming their rival.
K&D must've been planning this.
Damn, they're sparing no one. Too cruel.
La'Favz has a contract with Xinzhou.
Of the top ten worldwide best-selling brands for last year,
Xinzhou has the distribution rights to six of those brands.
Even if you think with your knees, you know that they came just for the distribution rights.
Then, what will we do from now on?
You still have to ask? Forget what was going to happen if we were sold to MJ.
Nothing good will come out of being sold to K&D.
K&D's not a moral, life-saving organization.
Older Sister Xiaoqing, is this true?
Didn't CEO say we were just changing owners?
That the employees' rights wouldn't be affected?
Yeah. Didn't the CEO promise us before?
How did it turn out to this?
Seeing the CEO's reaction earlier,
I believe that he didn't know that the situation would turn out to this either.
I don't think those promises count anymore,
since K&D doesn't have any obligations to carry out the contract signed between the CEO and MJ.
Why is it like this?
What?
You're the first person to run with another job lined up
and you're pretending to be innocent?
You must've heard something, so you were planning on switching jobs. Right?
How can you do this? We are colleagues. You should have told us first.
That's fine. In this society nowadays,
as long as you have connections, every day will be fine. Right?
Mama's boy.
I didn't hear anything beforehand.
You're still in the mood to be rude to Charlie?
His new company might have open positions.
Shouldn't you switch to a new "leg" to suck up to? (T/N: "hug a leg" means to suck up to someone)
Brother Charlie, is your mother free for dinner tonight?
This won't do. I have to prepare my resume.
Luoya,
what did you say?
You and Summer switched companies?
Don't you know you have to notify a month in advance before you quit? Why did you—
Hello? Hello?
Are young people like this nowadays?
The golf club from the last time?
Okay. I'll go over with Leyan immediately.
Hello?
Okay. I got it.
♫ You'll never know I still love you ♫
♫ That love is still as clear as before ♫
♫ The furthest distance ♫
♫ Is that you are next to me ♫
♫ Yet I could only continue to embrace the view of your back ♫
Are you okay?
[Pear Coffee]
I don't know where to start. This situation is a bit complicated.
It's about you and CEO, right?
I know everything.
You know?
Makes sense. He's good friends with Director Gu.
It's natural for you to know.
I'm sure you're not the only person in distress.
Because CEO has come to my house several times, too.
He called Zhaoxuan out in the middle of the night.
Him coming to Zhaoxuan repeatedly,
I'm sure that he's just like you.
He's not sure how he should handle the situation.
He often says to separate work and personal life, but truth speaks for itself.
Our work and personal lives are intertwined. They can't be separated.
Older Sister Zhixin, did I do wrong?
Do you still remember the question that I asked you?
Why are people so contradicting?
- We knew that we'll regret, but we still chose to do it. - I remember.
Then, do you regret doing it?
If I were to start over,
I'd still choose to make that call to Director Wan
as a last-ditch effort.
Then that's it.
What you really want to ask isn't whether or not you should've made that call,
it's how you should face each other from now on.
You're right.
Because I don't feel at fault.
As a supervisor,
I want to use all my might to protect my coworkers.
But as Luo Chengkai's girlfriend,
I want to comfort him.
Even if he made decisions that I don't agree with,
I still love him.
I understand how you feel.
Because I was like this with Zhaoxuan.
We couldn't separate our personal and work matters.
So when we broke up, I removed all of the orders
just to quickly cut ties with him.
But now, I advise you to think it over thoroughly.
Give yourself and him some more buffer time.
Why?
The person that CEO doesn't want to hurt the most is you.
He knows that you revealed the matter,
so I'm sure he feels more self-condemnation than anger
because he was the one that put you in such a bind.
I've always thought he was disappointed with me,
but I never thought
that he might be even more disappointed with himself.
If you care about him, then hold onto him tightly.
Just like how Zhaoxuan held me tightly.
The beginning of love only needs a bit of luck,
but maintaining love requires a lot of stubbornness.
Jackson!
What do you guys want?
I want to ask him to explain
why, without our approval,
he decided to resell La'Favz to K&D Group.
This is our company's matter. We have no need to explain this to you.
Luo Chengkai, it was just business.
They named a good price. I didn't have any reasons to reject.
If it were you, you'd have made the same decision.
Then, what will happen to La'Favz's employees?
Didn't we already discuss this?
The selling conditions require that you don't fire employees within three years without reason.
I've informed K&D Group of this condition.
As for if they can accept that, it's no longer my responsibility.
[Official statement on K&D's buying over of La'favz: La'favz will become K&D's OEM!]
K&D officially released a statement. Did you guys see?
Seems like their main intentions for buying La'Favz was indeed
for the distribution rights to the six brands under Xinzhou.
Melody guessed it right.
The main point is the ending.
La'Favz will become K&D's OEM.
"As for La'Favz's personal brands, production will come to a halt."
All right. All right.
You must be tired. Here's some black coffee.

It wasn't made for Luo Chengkai by Su Xiaoqing.

♫ wrong time ♫
I know that this wasn't your original intention,
but when I think of how upset my colleagues are,
I have no way to lie to myself that this matter isn't related to me.
Sorry. The person that I don't want to hurt the most
is you.
But you still got hurt.
From beginning to end, I didn't want to drag you into this.
You are the person who I want to protect the most.
But...
I messed up everything.
I don't blame you.
I blame myself
for hurting my colleagues that fought alongside me.
Hurting is hurting.
It won't disappear just because we didn't do it on purpose.
♫ A pair of tender hands ♫
♫ That once held me tight ♫
♫ and never let go ♫
♫ Oh, how I wanted to stay with you forever ♫
♫ We're right for each other, but we loved at the wrong time ♫
How is it? This tea isn't bad, right?
It's the Oriental Beauty Oolong tea.
The taste is smooth, with a deep and fragrant flavor. I like it.
- As long as you like it. - I was thinking...
it's rare that everyone is here today.
I think I should still quickly
let you guys know how I will split the inheritance.
I've thought about it.
My family home here and that land in the countryside,
you three brothers can split that up.
Then, Grandpa, what about the city house, the one rented to the sandwich shop?
That will be for Zijun.
Is that good? That's a prime location.
Zijun is so young. I'm afraid that he'll end up slacking off.
It'll do him harm.
How about this? Let's put the house in a trust first.
We can take care of the rest later.
There's no need to complicate things.
Zijun's a good kid.
He won't be a good for nothing when he gets the house.
So many years have passed, but I still can never tell what this kid is thinking.
I've always tried to treat him better,
but I feel like he's resisting.
What? What?
Why is there a baby? Aiya!
Don't cry, don't cry...
Such a little baby got beaten up black and blue everywhere.
How could his biological parents do that to him?
It's okay, Grandpa. You don't have to go on.
Every time you get to this point, you always want to cry.
It's all in the past.
That's true. It's been so many years.
Your youngest brother
was in a car accident that year
and passed away with your parents.
I found the baby not long after that.
When I saw him for the first time, I had a feeling.
It was like your little brother had came back again.
Fortunately, Zijun
has always been a good, obedient, and filial kid.
No matter what you ask him, he always says that it's fine.
And he always says "no need, no need" when you offer him anything.
- Isn't that good? - That's not good at all.
He is so polite with us.
Isn't it just like a bank teller speaking to a client?
Grandpa, I feel like you play favorites.
You only care about what Zijun likes and wants.
Then, what about us three brothers?
He's kidding, Grandpa.
Drink your tea. Drink your tea.
[Abba Cake - Handmade]
Dad, why did you turn off my alarm? I'm going to be late.
Wasn't your company sold already?
The company may be sold, but I didn't quit. I still have to work.
It doesn't matter. Your company can't last too long anyways.
You don't need to go to work anymore.
Because it feels like there's not much time left,
that's all the more reason for me to go.
Is it really so hard to work in the same company until I retire?
Water must have gotten in my brain when I chose this job. (T/N "water in the brain" also means "out of my mind.")
Now, those waters are turning into tears of regret.
Now that La'favz is turning into a contract manufacturer, what are you all planning to do?
I passed my interview. I'll probably just go to the pharmaceutical factory.
It's so nice to be a mama's boy.
How about you, Mibao?
My dad wants me to help out at our family's cake store.
It's so nice to rely on your dad.
- Aisha? - I'm probably going to go back home first.
My mom's already compiled a full list of arranged dates for me.
The schedule is already completely full for the one night and two days that I'll be home.
If there's any handsome, single, and straight guys...
It'd be even better if both of his parents are dead. Perfect!
Then introduce me, please.
But they have to be at least as handsome as Zijun and CEO.
They can't be uglier than them.
Dang! Please look in the mirror first before you speak.
Don't act like you just got out of prison. You like everyone you see.
You, the traitor who deserted us to go sell male enhancement drugs!
You still dare to bark?!
What the heck? It's cold medicine!
I don't care! I'm cutting my ties with you.
I guarantee it. Eventually, you'll miss the days when I heckled you.
Mibao, why are you taking a video?
I'm afraid I won't see Charlie and Melody fight anymore,
so I wanted to record it for memory sake.
But, Melody, are you sure you want to marry country folks?
My home is an hour car ride away from the train station.
Your home wouldn't be surrounded by farmland
and be half an hour on a scooter from the nearest convenience store, right?
There are no conveinience stores around my house,
but there's a general store. Ah!
The general store owner's grandson fits your criteria.
Handsome, single, straight, and his parents are both dead.
How about you come home with me?
Close to my house is a scallion pancake store that's the best.
The lady boss of a general store...
Sounds very embarrassing!
Never mind. It's not part of my life plans.
Everybody, just be friends and joke around. Okay?
Pretend like I didn't say anything.
Eason?
I haven't sent out my resume yet,
but recruiters have already contacted me.
I might go and talk with them.
Dang, even outsider IT homebodies like you are getting snatched by recruiters.
Looks like a homebody engineer is still more popular.
I shouldn't have chosen a Liberal Arts and Science major. Idiot!
But the new company doesn't have any of you. I don't want to go at all.
Aiyo! What's with you?
Why is a homebody engineer like you pretending to be an artistic intellectual?
Why did you toss a tear-gas grenade?
You're so mean!
Charlie.
Whether it's male enhancement medicine or cold medicine,
remember to pass a few to me.
I won't be polite.
Okay. If I have extra, I'll give you some.
Huh? Why are you so agreeable today?
Blame it on the hot weather. It's fried my brain.
♫ Using my heart to feel ♫
♫ In my every journey the various unpredictable encounters ♫
[Between] <♫ Using my heart to feel Day by day I'm getting nearer to achieving my insignificant dream ♫
This is the new CEO, Luo Chengkai.
I didn't endure all of this because I made a mistake.
I just can't bear to hurt others for my own sake.
Very good. Go ahead and be the sacrificial lamb.
You appear to be cold-hearted.
But you are very gentle, like a lava brownie, crispy on the outside, with soft insides.
You are the superman at work.
You are an idiot in life.
You are competitive and want to win. Even if you are misunderstood, you still don't want to explain things.
But your heart will also be hurt.
You seem... like that cactus.
I never thought the first person to leave La'favz
would be me.
In a bit, someone will come and take the cactus.
Keep an eye out for me.
Okay.
I cleaned up my office.
The ones that I can't take with me,
get a delivery company to send them to me.
Okay.
The chairman has spoken with K&D.
They won't lay off any employees now.
If anyone wants to change jobs, contact me.
If I can help out, I will try my best.
Charlie, good luck with your new job.
The company didn't want to give me a raise.
That's why my mom keeps urging me to find another job.
Since it is your last day, let me tell you truthfully.
I sneaked into your office every night
and spit on your computer keyboard.
That's so creative of you.
I was kidding!
Aisha, you're very capable,
but you're too eager to win.
Don't be so hot-headed, and it will help in your future career.
All right. I know.
My efforts in voting for you previously were not in vain.
Mibao, don't cry anymore.
You should grow up.
Hey, Mibao, enough.
Next person.
Jia Bosi.
Working and staying at the same position for fifteen years
is not easy.
I've been with La'favz for fifteen years.
Many bosses have come and go.
You're the only one that I can submit to and accept.
Oh my!
Jia Bosi, it's amazing that you can boot-lick through to the last moment.
I was being serious.
CEO, your actions have spoken louder than your words.
There's no doubt to how capable you are. Thank you.
Thanks.
You have worked hard.
CEO, honestly, it's been very tiring.
It's the last day, so I can tell you that.
Melody.
You are my capable assistant.
The E-commerce Department can't run without you.
Thank you for your contribution to the company.
Let's do away with these empty thank you words.
CEO, I will ask you one question.
Do you have any handsome, single, straight guys with dead parent who
coincidentally are also CEO, CFO, or CCO's as friends?
You can introduce them to me.
The most precious trait in a person is to know one's own limitations.
Isn't Xiaoqing the last and most important person?
Why didn't CEO say anything to her?
He's a man of few words. Maybe he's run out of things to say.
Strange. He hasn't been at the company long,
yet it's hard to see him go.
