[ The Golden Eyes ]
[ Episode 16 ]
Leaving the pawnshop was indeed a good opportunity for you.
I didn't even let you pay for that jade eye.
Jade eye?
Right. Those robbers not only hurt you that time,
they also destroyed the jade eye displayed on our glass counter.
That was a jade eye from the Qin Dynasty Era.
As they say, after extreme misfortunes is successive good fortunes.
If those troublesome events didn't happen,
how could you have this good luck now? Right?
No, not good luck, but ability.
What's that again? The heaven bestows great duties on the capable ones.
- You must first...what's that again? - You must first leave the pawnshop business.
Manager Liu, Uncle De,
you two just chat about your official matters first. I'll just go there to make a phone call.
Uncle De, I still have one thing to ask your help with.
- Hello. - Hello, Feifei.
Was there a jade eye that got shattered during the night of the pawnshop robbery?
Right.
There was indeed a jade eye that got destroyed that time.
Why are you asking this?
Can I see it?
As the victim, why do you want to look at it?
I work in the antique jade business.
Maybe, I can help you with solving the case and provide you with some clues.
Cut it out. I've already let Grandfather Gu check it.
He wasn't able to see anything special about it, so what could you see?
Grandfather Gu has seen it?
He said that it probably was a pair.
But based on the quality, it's a bit substandard.
Feifei,
can I see it?
I'll give a try and submit a report.
However, I can't make a guarantee.
Okay. Thanks.
What thanks? The important thing is you should do your best to help me solve this case.
A pair of jade eyes.
Xiao Rui, you are now considered a boy wonder.
You've become wealthy. You now need a bulldozer when you buy objects, right?
How many good stuff have you bought? Did you?
Just some small items. It's rare that you're in the mood today,
so I'm asking you to go to my house and take a look around.
I'm also thinking about that. I want to take a look.
Oh, right, don't put too much importance on what that Manager Liu said earlier.
We all know that you tried to protect the antiques in that store that night of the robbery,
that's why, you got hurt.
But that Manager Liu didn't even discern right from wrong and just fired you.
Now, good. You have established your own business form scratch.
You've opened Ruiyun Room and became its boss.
Don't know if Manager Liu can sleep well tonight.
It's fine.
If now because of the ¥2,000 separation pay from Manager Liu back then,
I couldn't even afford that Sanhe Liu gourd.
I still have to show my gratitude to him.
Okay. You said it well.
Xiao Rui, you've suddenly matured.
You taught me well.
Capable people tend use their surrounding to stay aloof from worldly matters, but the most capable ones are able to hide within the temptations of a city.
Uncle De, you are a legend in the antique world.
I've always wanted to get a chance to visit you.
Never thought that I'll bump into you here in Xiao Rui's house.
It's really an honor.
No such thing.
You're being too courteous.
I'm just a decaying old man.
Uncle De, you're being too humble.
The phoenix headdress of a Tang Dynasty royalty,
a kassaya (Buddhist monk clothing) found in a Mongolian tomb,
and the Five Horses Painting being kept in a museum,
their restoration has been a legend in the antique world.
I've always felt puzzled
why Xiao Rui has such great eyesight.
So, he's your disciple.
No. No.
Xiao Rui is naturally smart and very hardworking.
It's expected for him to have his achievements now. I dare not claim any credit for it.
Xiao Rui, that...
For Mr. Qin to especially visit you today, you two must have some important business to discuss.
I won't disturb you two anymore.
Don't.
Uncle De, it's not something very important.
I just came today to visit Xiao Rui.
I've always wanted to meet you.
If you are free, let me treat you to dinner tonight.
Not anymore. You two just talk about your business.
Let's just gather next time when everyone has a free time.
I'll go back now.
Okay then. I'll have my car take you home.
Not anymore. I'm used to wandering around by myself.
Goodbye. Goodbye.
Uncle De, goodbye.
Before, I've heard a lot of antique businessmen mention him.
It's such a pity that Uncle De is old and has retired.
Or else, how many precious antiques
can he still restore?
But looking at him today, he seems still very healthy.
Mr. Qin, please sit down.
Actually, there were a lot of people these past years asking Uncle De to come out from retirement.
But Uncle De said that restoring antiques,
restoring ancient curio is an extremely exhausting and time consuming thing.
He's afraid that with his age,
if his hand just trembles a little, it might damage a lot of items.
Hence, he now only focuses all his energy to things that he loves the most.
What about you?
Do you like that jade business?
I...
I especially came to visit you for two reasons. One is to thank you.
Second is for I cherish talents.
You have a unique kind of judgment. You never failed in stone gambling.
And you are a very upright, kind, and modest person.
You have helped our Qin family this time.
I want to give you a gift.
Xuanbing is my friend.
Hence, I only did something that I should do.
The gift I'm talking about is not an ordinary vulgar item.
I want to invite you come to Kiev with me.
Stone gambling is after all, just a small type of business.
If you want to do big,
you must have a huge amount of business resources.
I want to introduce to you
all my connections in Ukraine.
But I don't plan to do a huge business.
This is in preparation for the Myanmar Precious Stones Emporium.
The Myanmar Precious Stones Emporium
is of higher standard than the previous
Pingzhou Emporium
You can count with your fingers the number of clients joining it.
I want to invite you to be our jade consultant.
Our company will pay you 10% of the profit we'll obtain from the emporium
to show our sincerity.
Boss Qin, I'm just an owner of small curio shop.
I interact with porcelains and bronze wares every day.
It was just accidental that I got involved in the jade world.
Hence, I feel that I'm not qualified nor capable to be your consultant.
But, I still thank you for your invitation and praises.
Thank you.
It's fine.
Before Xuanbing left Beijing, she actually advised me
that even if I give you 50% shares in the profit, you also would refuse it.
Because you only love the curios and history.
You're not that interested in earning money.
Xuanbing has left Beijing? How come she didn't tell me?
She returned to Kiev.
She has to handle some business over there. Also,
she has to prepare for the Myanmar Emporium.
Xuanbing has always been a tough girl.
She was afraid that you'll blame yourself if she tell you this.
She won't force you to do things you don't want.
It's because I'm so thirsty for talents that I suddenly invited you like this.
No rush. Rest for a while and think about it.
I hope that we still will have a chance to see each other again.
Mr. Qin!
When will you be leaving?
♫ Feeling your palm and I know ♫
♫ Just how important you are ♫
♫ Rubbing my eyes and I know ♫
♫ Just how different you are ♫
♫ Holding your palm and I know ♫

♫ following your heartbeat ♫
♫ I show scissors, ♫

♫ I know you are ♫
♫ losing on purpose ♫
♫ If I were to show rock, ♫
♫ you would not show paper ♫
♫ I know you're deliberately ♫
- It's agreed then. - Sure.
Let's settle it like this then.
♫ breathing together; Na, na, na, na, ♫
♫ you and me ♫
Let's just keep in touch.
- Okay. - Okay then. I still have to attend to some things. Let's just see each other next time.
- Be careful on your way then. - Okay. - Bye.
♫ Connecting two hearts ♫
♫ Feeling your palm and I know ♫

♫ That would come here following your heartbeat ♫ Who was that earlier? He looks like a pervert.
- A client. - A client?
Is there a client like that? Throughout your walk, he was watching...watching that part!
When talking to you, he even blew on the back of your ear.
Can't he like me? He even asked me out for a meal.
I even invite you for dinner everyday.
- What you're doing is pestering. - Pestering?
I don't understand what pestering means. I just know that it's hard to make a reservation in that restaurant.
I reserved it a week ago, because Feifei said that you love the steak there.
You two have went their thrice, and in twice of that, you kept praising their steak.
But there was once, because that restaurant is out of steak,
you got so mad that you ate 6 scoops of ice cream.
- Is there a point in what you're doing? - There is.
You are just shameless.
Why must I have such a thing? As long as I like someone,
it's enough that you're happy.
This restaurant has steak delivery twice a day. If we go now,
we'll be able to catch the second delivery. How about we go now?
Let's go.
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Dragon Guardians @ Viki
I heard from Feifei that you love that seat.
But really weird. There are so few people today.
That's right. How come there are so few people?
Such grand move. You even booked the whole place?
Our world can't accommodate other things.
Just this one chance. Give me all the tricks you have.
For me, love and living are the same. When there's a chance,
then there's hope.
I'm allergic to fresh flowers. You didn't forget that, right?
Who buys fresh flowers? So corny.
Forget any singing or violin. I hate Western music.
What a coincidence! I also hate Western music.
Let's just eat. Why listen to any music?
There's no cake or something, right? I'm currently on a diet.
And mascots. That's the scariest thing. I hate all kinds of cartoon characters.
What are you doing?
I... My neck feels stiff.
I'm very hard to court. You don't need to waste time on me.
There are things that might have happened, but bears no meaning.
We are both adults. Stop being so old-fashioned.
Because of a thing that happened for a day, you have to exchange it with the rest of your life.
Let's just quietly finish this separation meal
and then return to being the friends of two friends. That's enough.
I'm not lacking in friends, the more friends of friends.
Actually, it's really hard for me to like a girl.
Teacher Xiao Jia, I know that you're hard to court.
But, I will never give up. You said it right. We...
...are indeed not old-fashioned.
But I still believe in love.
I look forward in spending the rest of my life with one person.
I'm willing to exchange a lifetime for that one day we had.
Also, who says that you can't exchange the rest of your life for a day?
No matter how long a lifetime is, it's still accumulated by several one day.
A lifetime like that, as long as you spend it with the person you love,
I'm willing to.
Teacher Xiao Jia,
I will keep pursuing you. I will squeeze out all my brain juices to pursue you,
exhaust both my small and big brains,
wear out my lips, and spend all my credit card.
Until I finally get you.
70% cooked, black pepper sauce, right?
- So sorry. - It's okay. I'll just return after 10 minutes.
What 10 minutes? You're the 10 minutes.
Xiao Rui.
This ring...
- No... - No what?
Nothing at all. I'll be back after 15 minutes.
Xiao Rui!
Huangfu Yun said that this ring isn't his.
He was just showing me.
That ring indeed looks good, but the material isn't.
It's just an imitation.
Fake item?
It's of high quality imitation. Probably B + C level.
Huangfu Yun.
Keep your B + C!
Jia Jia! Jia Jia!
Huangfu Yun, so that's what's going on. Keep your B + C.
Zhuang Rui! I'm going to kill you!
Do you know how much effort I've put in this?!
Old Master Gu said that it's just an ordinary light greenish white jade after looking at it.
But what's strange is...
...Boss Yu and those robbers risked danger
to steal this.
Yes.
Did you find any clue?
What Grandfather Gu said is right.
This jade eye has quite ordinary color.
Based on quality and carvings,
it must have been done during the Qin Dynasty Era.
In history books, you won't be able to find this same shape.
Which means, you won't be able to know where it came from.
Whether you put them together or as a whole object,
you're unable to see anything special about it.
Why then did they try to steal this?
It should be me asking you.
You've been looking at it all day, unable to see anything, and even asked me back?
If you're not sure that you can find anything, why did you still let me bring this here?
He rushed you because we're going to Kiev tomorrow.
Kiev? Why?
Why? I also want to ask him that.
Isn't it all because of that Xiao Bing Bing?
If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Fei. Right, Xiao Fei?
It's enough if he wants to court some girl, but he just has to destroy me and Xiao Jia with it.
A beauty destroys an empire!
Zhuang Rui. Are you playing games with me?
I didn't. I indeed didn't see any clue after looking at the jade eye.
Moreover, in going to Kiev, why are you mad?
That's right. Why are you mad?
Can't a good citizen like me have any freedom?
That's right. How is your going to Kiev be any of my business?
Once you leave, no one's going to bring me trouble. That's quite good.
Right. Why are you mad then?
I'm not mad.
That's still not being mad?
I'm indeed not mad!
Oh, my!
How come all the girls leaving this house have to slam the door?
♫ Afraid that when I clean the room again ♫
♫ I will startle all of these ♫
♫ Your fingerprints are still very clear on the glass ♫
♫ Still hasn't changed ♫
♫ I never thought that the sky would change ♫
♫ That the world with you would have continuous dark rainy days ♫
♫ Naively, I thought ♫
♫ that as long as I foolishly wait ♫
♫ I would be able to wait for your foolish love ♫
Can you do something serious?
Everything that I do are serious stuff. Am I right, Xiao Bai?
Oh, my, still not done packing?
What is this?
So ugly!
Let me do it.
This one's cool. Right? Try it on.
Let me tell you that rich people like us must give importance to our overall style.
Not bad. It suits you.
Tell me, what else can you say about this. You weren't able to fulfill it at all.
How am I going vouch for you? You tell me how.
- Chief Ding, I... - You totally can't. You're making me...
I'm not going. I can't vouch for you anymore. You decide on your own. Go now.

That fast?
Xiao Rui Rui! I miss you!
Why did it take you so long to open the door?
Wow! My god!
The Qin family is this rich? Such a huge house!
Didn't we just separate for 10 minutes?
Look at that Qin family. They arranged a presidential suite for you, while the two of us are staying in a standard room.
Do you know when I started to miss you? It's when I saw that 1,2 meter bed
and that bathroom without a bathtub.
Is it that exaggerated?
Of course!
I'm fine with anything. I can sleep anywhere.
I'm not.
Let me tell you that Qin Xuanbing is judgmental.
Can you endure for her to bully us like this? Letting me sleep on a 1,2-meter bed
and not having an early bubble bath everyday?
What bath?
Bubble bath.
What do you want me to do?
I feel that you can invite us two to live with you.
I'll sleep on the couch.
I can act as if I didn't hear anything.
This trip was arranged in a hasty manner, hence, there were indeed lapses in our care.
How about I immediately ask them to change your rooms?
No need. As a rich person, one shouldn't advocate extravagance and wasteful spending.
I just have to stay with Xiao Rui in one room.
How come you... Are you planning to stay here too?
Our standard room has been canceled by him. Also, I find sleeping on the sofa comfortable.
I can also protect you two better.
Then, can I borrow Zhuang Rui for a day?
No way!
No, what is it?
What is this?
The organizer, Fang Zhenghua, is an old family friend of ours.
The Zheng family has been the shipping king for generations. It has deep resources and wide connections.
So, dad hopes that you can meet them too.
Didn't I already say that he can't?
Didn't the invitation state that it's 8 pm?
Why are we going now?
Is that place very far away?
The address is a mid-century manor in the suburb.
Actually, it is not that far.
But, we are not in a hurry. Let's prepare well for it.
Prepare? What do we need to prepare?
[ She & He ]
This way please.
Very handsome.
This is a shop I frequent a lot in Kiev.
The various special blends are very good. The food is not bad too.
The dishes in Kiev look rough and uninhibited,
but they taste okay. All are quite delicious.
Didn't I say I'll pay the bill?
We agreed that I will give you a treat, right?
You have to give me a chance to show off my skills as a local guide, isn't it?
Don't. Don't. You already had many opportunities to show off your skills. Let me settle it.
Okay.
So, you're here.
Feifei?
Why are you here?
What's wrong? Kiev is not your house. I can come anytime I want to.
You left in such a hurry for Kiev. I thought you had something important.
So, you came here to drink wine,
and shop.
This dishes look delicious.
Please eat some.
Miss Qin, the scent on your body is quite special. What brand is it?
Is it?
I don't use perfume.
Maybe it's left on me from the incense we lit at home.
I love to buy incense.
If you like, I can give some to you.
There's no need. Thank you.
I don't like things like that which can conceal a person's true colors.
You don't like it? Then, why are you asking about the brand?
Miss Qin, aren't you going to develop your family business locally within the country?
Why did you come back to Kiev suddenly?
Police Officer Miao, you are quite concern about me.
I have some social commitments in Kiev.
Just right, Zhuang Rui can attend with me.
At the same time, he can accumulate some connections and resources. There is a cocktail party later.
Why don't you attend with us?
There's no need. I don't like to drink wine.
Three bottles of vodka. A total of 90,000 rubles.
Is this lady going to swipe your card or pay cash?
What does she mean?
She said that Police Officer Miao bought 3 bottles of vodka.
Didn't you say that you don't like to drink?
Why are you buying so many bottles of vodka?
Zhuang Rui, you are too serious.
The vodka here is the best in the world.
Even if you don't like to drink, you might start liking it after coming here.
Why are these three bottles of vodka
so expensive?
Let's pay the bill together.
You just arrived in Kiev.
You must be on official business.
It is really okay for you to drink so much alcohol?
You don't have to be bothered about it.
That...I don't want this vodka anymore. I will put them back myself later.
What is wrong with you?
Has something happened?
It has nothing to do with you.
You...what are you doing? What is the matter with you?
I already told you not to be bothered about me. Don't be bothered about me.
I am no longer a police officer. There is no work relationship between us.
You are also not related to me in any way. We don't have a love relationship.
We are just ordinary strangers. Okay?
No...this...you lost your job?
How did this happen?
I'm unlucky.
I took evidence out of the police station privately. It was later stolen.
This is how it happened.
Didn't you tell me that you had already make a report?
Zhuang Rui, you are not responsible for this.
What she said is right.
This has nothing to do with you.
Don't. Don't. It is related to me. It is.
This matter...
How is it related to you?
Actually, it...is because of me that you lost your job.
Wait...I need to think about it.
Why not...before you find another job, you...
be my bodyguard first?
