You mean I posted this on Weibo?
Your wife manages your Weibo account.
Now you've upset Ling.
That makes regaining his affection
pretty much impossible.
What are you doing?
I don't want to waste time on this.
If you want to know my size, go ask Wen Li.
The way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
EPISODE 9
MISSED CALL FROM NAN
Sorry. I forgot to let you know that I've arrived home safely.
Did you get in trouble for getting home so late?
Don't underestimate my acting skills.
Before he could say anything, I put on a pitiful show.
He actually fell for it.
What if he detects something?
Truth becomes fiction when the fiction is true.
Plus,
I have the greatest female weapon.
He softened up the moment I cried.
His attitude towards me is a lot better.
Why are you back?
Great acting.
I didn't mean to act drunk last night.
Yes, I exaggerated my emotions a little,
but I meant every word I said.
No...
I don't even believe myself.
What should I do?
Ms. Huang.
Let me do it.
Yes, ma'am.
An Ran, when did you get here?
I didn't see you come in.
I got here before you woke up.
Linlin, do you usually get up so late?
I had insomnia last night and didn't sleep well.
Come with me.
He doesn't like having people around when he's working.
I still have some things to consult Yizhou about.
You can go do your thing. Don't worry about me.
An Ran, I'll be direct with you.
This is my house. I don't want to see you here every day.
I don't want you alone with my husband.
But I'm worried about Yizhou, too.
I just want to help you take care of him.
Are you done? Get out.
Did you hear that? He only needs me.
-No need to trouble yourself. -I meant you.
You want me to leave?
If you still want to be Mrs. Ling,
stop all these little tricks and act appropriately.
Get out. Close the door for me.
I'M SORRY
What's wrong?
Nothing.
I have to get rid of her.
Hey, why didn't you book a private room?
Looks like we're having an affair.
Having an affair with my husband's best friend? I'm not that crazy.
Oh?
-What kind of affair do you like? -Don't interrupt me.
It's fine that Ling Yizhou lost his memory.
But his whole temperament changed, too.
He wasn't super affectionate before,
but at least he wasn't this mean.
Only you think it's strange.
This is the normal Ling Yizhou.
The doting Ling Yizhou was abnormal.
Are you on my side or not?
Don't try to lure me to your side.
I'd never betray Ling.
Helping me is helping Ling Yizhou.
When his memory recovers,
you'll be the hero who helped save our marriage.
How so?
Do you want to marry An Ran?
Who would want to marry her?
I thought she was betrothed to you.
You'll eventually have to marry someone.
Might as well marry someone you know, skip the break-in period.
So, basically,
you want to use me to get An Ran away from Ling Yizhou.
It's a win-win solution. What do you think?
No way!
No way. I have no interest in being someone's backup.
I knew you'd turn me down.
How stupid of me to ask you for help.
Fine.
You know what your biggest problem is?
What?
As a woman,
you're not physically attractive at all.
That's why even though you're married,
An Ran hasn't given up yet.
Superficial advantages are the most vulnerable.
Only smart people appreciate my advantages.
It's normal that someone as pompous as you
can't understand what I mean.
Who are you calling pompous?
-Whoever responded. -How am I pompous?
I'm very low-key! I'm wearing black today. How am I pompous?
You know it best.
I dare you to say that again.
Think about it.
You can't eat this.
That's mine.
You said I was pompous!
Sir.
We found Chu Yan. Have a look.
Ms. Huang. What are you making? It smells really good.
Ma'am.
Miss An made this healthy herbal soup for Mr. Ling.
She didn't even allow me to touch it.
Big deal.
It's not like Ling Yizhou hasn't had soup before. What's the point?
-Ms. Huang. -Yes?
Bring me some salt, vinegar, and sugar.
But Ma'am, you--
Just do it. I'll take full responsibility.
OK.
Wait.
Ruining this soup would be such a waste.
I'm so full.
Pidan, you're good.
You've been eating non-stop.
Is it that good?
One last chicken wing.
For you!
What are you doing?
Linlin, how could you mess around with my soup?
You made this soup?
I thought Ms. Huang had messed up. Even Pidan didn't like it.
That's OK.
It means that your cooking still has room for improvement.
Pidan, let's go find yummier food elsewhere.
What's going on?
Nothing.
The dog finished the soup that I spent all morning making.
I'm a little upset.
Don't be. I'm kind of sick of soup anyway.
Yizhou.
I have something going on this afternoon.
I won't be able to join you for lunch.
Ma'am, if you don't feel well, you should stay at home.
I slept too much yesterday, so my body is aching.
Call me if you feel unwell.
OK.
Yizhou.
Can't you knock before you come in?
I forgot.
We're close. Do you care about that?
An Ran, if Xia Lin was here with me in this room,
what you just did would be disrespectful.
Yizhou,
are you getting your memory back?
Are you worried about that?
Why would I be worried?
It would be wonderful if it happened.
Actually, Linlin and I used to be close.
I'm not sure why,
but ever since the accident, she has been very hostile towards me.
Although I haven't fully accepted it,
our marriage is a fact.
You are my friend, so you should accept it as well.
Fine. You've always liked to lecture me.
I brewed a pot of herbal tea for you. Try it.
I have no appetite. You can have it.
You said you were tired of soup, so I made you some tea instead.
Please don't turn me down.
What's that smell?
Mostly herbal ingredients.
It's best to drink it while it's hot.
An Ran.
I left my cell phone in the study. Can you get it for me?
Sure.
Drink it while it's still hot.
I'M SORRY
Sir, I can't seem to wake Mrs. Ling up.
I'm worried that she might be sick.
Has she ever been like this?
Never.
I find it strange because
Pidan has also been sleeping all afternoon.
Call Doctor Wang.
We found traces of hypnotics in Mrs. Ling's blood sample.
Thankfully, it wasn't enough to cause any real harm.
Yizhou, you finished it all?
Yeah. It's not bad, but I'm feeling really sleepy for some reason.
Why don't you lie down and take a nap?
Have I seen this necklace before?
No, Yizhou.
Close your eyes and relax. Go to sleep.
Starting now,
I want you to listen to me closely.
What are you doing?
Linlin, Yizhou is asleep.
I'm just about to leave.
An Ran, I know you like Ling Yizhou.
But he's married.
If he didn't love you in the past,
he won't fall in love with you now.
So, put away all of your useless thoughts.
And stop showing up at my house all the time.
Don't ever come over again.
Xia Lin, without those tricks of yours,
you would never have appeared in our lives.
I'll help Yizhou understand...
that you don't deserve him.
I love him the most.
You love him,
but you don't dare tell him.
That's because you're afraid of being rejected.
An Ran, even if I wasn't here, he still wouldn't love you.
But I'm the only one who's been by his side all these years.
You've only known him for a few months.
Relationships cannot be measured by length of time.
He didn't love you then,
and he won't love you now.
I'm going to rest with my husband.
Are you going to watch?
OK, you can stop pretending. She's gone.
Ling Yizhou.
Did you really fall asleep?
How dare you bring another woman into our bedroom?
You are way out of line.
You're not asleep. You tricked me.
It's too easy to fool you.
Hey.
Wen Li.
Director Ling, the tea you brought over also contained traces of hypnotics.
The dosage could knock a person out for 24 hours.
Doctor Wang, in addition to external injury,
are there any other possible causes of memory loss?
Speaking of hypnotics...
there is another possibility.
Sir.
We're here.
Look into An Ran's whereabouts before the car accident.
Yes, sir.
MRS. LING CALLING
It's Mrs. Ling.
Put it on speaker mode.
Hello, Mrs. Ling. How can I help you?
Did I interrupt your work?
No. What can I do for you, ma'am?
Is Ling Yizhou at the office?
He's in a meeting right now. Would you like to speak to him?
No, it's OK. Don't worry.
Alright.
Since when did you start working for her?
Please. I'd never betray you, Mr. Ling.
I've only caught people in bed when I was acting.
Now, I get the chance to do it in real life.
I don't think Mr. Ling is the cheating type.
My dear, you're still young.
Reality is always crueler than what we think.
I still bet he's faithful.
I think he'd never cheat on Mrs. Ling.
I give up my vote.
Men at the top of the pyramid have a mysterious power.
You never know what they're thinking.
That's also the main reason women like them.
I never said he would cheat.
I'm just testing his loyalty.
Want me to get information from Wen Li?
That works for small things.
But for this, he's not only useless,
he might even give us away.
That makes sense. I'll go home and think about
how he can be useful to us.
Isn't that Mr. Ling?
Wen Li, you hypocrite.
-Miss Xia? -You are?
My boss would like to invite you to his house.
Who's your boss?
Chu Yan's father.
Why does Chu Yan's father want to see you?
I don't know him, so I'm not coming with you.
-Excuse me. Sorry about the trouble. -Miss Xia, wait.
What are you doing? Trying to kidnap her in the middle of the day?
You've misunderstood, Miss Xia.
My boss is extending a sincere invitation.
If he wanted me to kidnap you, I wouldn't be asking you politely.
Call Ling Yizhou and Chu Yan.
Fine. I'll go with you.
Mrs. Ling, let me go with you, too.
I'm sorry. My boss only invited Miss Xia.
I'll be fine. You guys can go now.
Miss Xia, please.
Can't you leave me alone for one day?
Mr. Chu, Linlin is in trouble.
Sir, Miss Xia is here.
Mr. Chu, why did you want to see me?
It seems that Miss Xia is quite straightforward.
I'll get to the point then.
I am Chu Yan's father.
I already have a potential daughter-in-law in mind.
I would not allow him to be entangled with any other woman
or be involved in any scandal.
Mr. Chu, I think you've misunderstood.
Chu Yan is my senior at the agency.
We're just friends.
That's good.
Chu Yan is my only son.
I won't allow his life to be ruined by anything or anyone.
Mr. Chu, rest assured.
I already have someone I like.
That person is not Chu Yan.
Shouldn't you be having tea with Miss Liang right now?
That was smart to make sure I wouldn't be here.
But, as one of the main characters, how could I miss out?
Mr. Chu invited me over as a guest.
As a guest?
Then why haven't you been offered a cup of tea?
Does the Chu family lack basic etiquette?
How dare you?
Since you had the nerve to come here, let me be clear about this.
Stay away from this woman in the future.
Or I'll make sure you never see her again.
Mr. Chu, there's nothing between us.
But even if there was, you have no right to control his life.
This is none of your business.
Remember what you promised me.
If you keep your word, you can keep enjoying the life you have now.
I can also promise you other things.
Whatever you offer, I can offer too. There are others who can as well.
You're not the only person with power in this world.
Are you done?
He's done. Let's go.
Don't you dare leave this house!
Yan, don't do this.
I'll take you to the doctor.
I'm fine. Thank you for coming.
We're even now.
Why did you take the blow for me? Are you stupid?
Mumu.
Are you hurt?
I'm fine.
Ling Yizhou.
What's going on?
Mr. Chu, I should be the one asking you.
You invited my wife to your house.
What do you want?
-Your wife? -Yes.
Xia Lin is my wife.
Didn't you investigate before you invited her?
Mr. Fu?
This is all my fault.
-So Miss Xia is Mrs. Ling. -I'm fine.
Chu Yan didn't even inform me of such wonderful news.
This was all a misunderstanding.
Misunderstanding?
Mr. Chu. Do you think saying that
could cancel out the pain that my wife has suffered?
Next time.
I'll visit you next time to apologize officially.
If you're still not willing to forgive me then,
-you should do so for Chu Yan's sake. -No need.
Living under your roof,
I've never been treated with respect anyway.
No need to come visit.
I'll have someone handle our business matters ASAP.
We'll let the past go,
but as for our unfinished deals,
I'll pay the penalty fees for breaching our contract.
From now on, we will only be competitors. We're never working together again.
Are you done hugging me?
I'm afraid once I let go,
you'll turn into the Ling Yizhou I don't know anymore.
How long did Chu Yan hold you?
Are you jealous?
Rest assured.
Next time, no matter how seriously injured,
I'll never let anyone else hold me.
There won't be a next time.
I should have showed up earlier today.
All that matters is that you showed up. Being late is OK.
Ling Yizhou. Even though you haven't got your memory back yet,
you don't hate me as much now, do you?
Never mind, don't answer.
The truth will probably make me sad.
I don't want you to lie to me.
Where is Mr. Wen?
He is busy with something else.
Ms. Huang, come rescue my back.
Why are you here?
Ms. Huang is asleep.
Let me help you.
You still whine like a baby?
No...
I...
You...
This is a bit awkward.
Why is it awkward?
You always say that you're Mrs. Ling, and I'm your husband.
Isn't it normal for a husband to help his wife?
Alright, take your clothes off.
No. That's too...
I don't really need medicine.
I guess you don't.
But if your back doesn't heal properly, you won't be able to wear bikinis
or show off your back anymore.
You'd only be able to wear ugly clothes for future events.
Fine.
-Ling Yizhou. -Yeah?
I like you.
I like you more than I thought I would.
Don't move.
If you look at me, I won't be able to tell you this.
If I miss out on this chance,
I don't know if you'll be nice to me again.
I regret it now.
I should have told you that I like you
when you still remembered me.
I'm afraid, too.
What if you never remember me and never like me again?
In my 22 years of life,
you're my first crush.
I can't give up on the love you once gave me.
If there's no one in your heart right now...
could you give yourself a chance...
to get to know me, like me,
or even fall in love with me?
You shouldn't have told me this.
I'm sorry. I won't bring it up again.
You...
Why did you kiss me?
We've kissed before.
What do you mean?
The Mr. Ling you know...
heard his wife's confession of love.
He wants me to tell you that
he's really happy.
A man should always confess his love first.
You remember everything now?
Mumu, I love you.
I love you more than I thought I would.
Mrs. Ling, would you please move into the master bedroom? Your Mr. Ling.
Yizhou.
Why are we meeting here?
I've been here before, haven't I?
Have you?
The day I had the car accident, you brought me here.
Yizhou, when I found you that day,
you were already unconscious.
Why would I bring you here instead of rushing you to the hospital?
It's so dark and eerie here.
-Let's head out. -Relax.
Let's listen to this first.
Your wife came to me.
She wanted you to forget a woman named Xia Lin.
She said she was trying to ruin your marriage.
This person is a well-known therapist in Gangdong.
She is also a hypnotherapist.
After I had the accident, you took me to see her, didn't you?
No, I didn't!
Yizhou. You have to trust me.
I wouldn't do anything to hurt you.
You put sleeping drugs in my food.
That's what you mean by not hurting me?
You lied to the hypnotherapist.
You had her erase my memory of the past two years. That's not hurting me?
An Ran...
What happened to you?
What happened to me?
You two did this to me.
Us two?
Yes.
I arranged all this.
If Xia Lin never appeared in your life,
even if you never fell in love with me,
at least we could be the way we were before.
But even when I forgot about her,
you still put sleeping drugs in my soup. Why?
Because I was afraid.
I was afraid that you'd remember her and fall in love with her again.
I had to take the risk.
I had to hypnotize you again
to make sure the memories stayed erased.
If she'd stay away from you,
if she'd stop pestering you,
I wouldn't have to do it.
An Ran...
You're like a little sister to me. We grew up together.
But now I barely recognize you.
I never wanted to be your little sister!
Then we can only be strangers.
No! Yizhou...
Yizhou...
I'll accept your marriage with Xia Lin.
Please just let me stay by your side.
I don't care if you accept it.
Are you really going to throw away...
our many years of friendship for her sake?
It's not for her sake.
An Ran, you made a mistake.
Because of our friendship,
I won't continue investigating the matter.
But if you keep making mistakes...
I can't guarantee I won't take action.
Yizhou. Don't leave me!
Let me ask you another question.
Did you have anything to do with the car accident?
What's the point of asking this now?
An Ran...
Don't destroy my last bit of affection for you.
Yizhou...
I didn't do it. It wasn't me.
You lost.
I don't need you to remind me.
You scared me!
What is there to be afraid of? This is our bedroom.
Nobody else can come in here.
Be honest with me. Where have you been?
How will I benefit from telling you?
Not enough.
Still not enough.
You're so greedy.
I'll find out on my own.
From Wen Li?
He's only loyal to you.
He reports the tiniest things to you.
He's my buddy, just like Chu Yan.
Would you be devastated if Mr. Wen chose to side with me one day?
You can try.
Mrs. Ling.
Hello, Mr. Wen.
Is Ling Yizhou at the office?
I can't get hold of him.
Mr. Ling is in a meeting.
Should I have him call you back?
It's alright. No worries.
WEN LI: MRS. LING IS LOOKING FOR YOU
If you have any questions in the future,
you should just come to me directly.
Did you two work together and lie to me yesterday?
He said you were in a meeting, but you weren't at the office.
We went to see a hypnotist.
To restore my memory.
A hypnotist?
The car accident didn't cause my amnesia.
It was caused by hypnosis.
Is An Ran behind this?
I confronted her.
Don't worry.
She'll never appear in our lives again.
I'm sorry.
Our relationship has cost you a friend.
It's not your fault.
She made the wrong decisions.
But you still have to make it up to me.
No, wait.
You got your memory back a while ago, didn't you?
Were you acting?
How else would Mumu confess her love for me?
Ling Yizhou, you liar!
Hello everyone. Welcome to The Amazing Idol.
Today, we've invited Yin Shuangshuang...
Chu Yan...
and Xia Lin as our guests.
In this episode, we'll be testing our guests' reactions.
I have three cards in my hand.
Each has a different task.
You have to complete the task on the card you pick.
Look at Linlin's expression.
Can you show us what your task is?
"Call someone of the opposite sex who is not on set
and make them say 'I love you.'"
Can someone bring Xia Lin's phone on stage?
Can I have a few minutes?
I need to think about who to call.
I have a suggestion.
You can call whoever is on your speed dial.
Or the last person you chatted with on WeChat.
I wouldn't dare expose my relationship with Ling Yizhou...
Can't you think of someone at the agency to call?
LING YIZHOU CALLING
You can't be serious.
Regardless of whether it's a man or woman calling,
as long as you complete your task, we'll let you pass.
Is it inconvenient for you?
Subtitle translation by Alice Hsing
So, the real reason Frosty Moon was cancelled
and Lu Yi was blacklisted
is all because of you?
He was blacklisted?
I didn't know about that.
He hit on my woman. Of course he had to pay.
Besides this, is there anything else you're hiding from me?
Nope.
If reporters get a photo of us,
we're going to be in the gossip column again.
I saw Chu Yan
and your girlfriend
walk into a hotel room.
