(My True Friend)
(Episode 17)
- Here. - Drink.
- Here. Here. - I want...
Here.
Slowly. Slowly. Slowly.
- I want to drink. - Lie down.
I want to drink.
Fu Xiao Ning.
Lie down here.
I'm not done drinking.
Fu Xiao Ning.
I still want to drink.
Fu Xiao Ning.
Don't go.
Drink with me.
All right. I won't go.
I'll get you the wine.
Bring me the wine.
I want to drink.
- All right. Let's drink. - Let's drink.
I haven't finished drinking.
Xi Shan.
You must be worried sick waiting for me.
It's my fault.
After accompanying the client to check out a house,
she made calculate the tax and payment method with her.
I can't help it.
This client is in a hurry to go on a business trip.
That's why I have to work overtime.
I wasn't able to catch the last train.
And I didn't want to spend the money on a cab.
So, I walked back here.
Hey.
How about this?
Let's have our own party and stay up late tonight.
We'll eat lobsters and watch movies, all right?
Don't be mad. Come on.
I just bought it. It's still hot. Hurry.
Come on.
Get up.
It's hot.
What are you doing?
All right, Fu Xiao Ning.
We've known each other for seven to eight years.
I know you very well.
Each time you tell a lie,
you'll tell a very long story.
You'll go around in circles, and it's very detailed.
Just like how you were earlier.
Unfortunately, Ms. Luo's expensive perfume would tell no lies.
You haven't even stepped into the house,
yet the scent came flooding in.
The scent is so strong.
I know what you did even if you don't tell me about it.
No, I didn't do anything.
Xi Shan.
Listen to my explanation.
There's really nothing between Luo Zu Er and me.
It's true.
She said she's in a bad mood because she just broke up.
She asked me to accompany her.
But before I went out,
I didn't know it was about this.
There really is nothing between us.
Can you trust me in this?
You said there's nothing between you and her.
Why didn’t you tell me that Luo Zu Er,
was looking for you before you went out?
If there's nothing going on between the two of you,
why did you lie to me?
I didn't tell you,
because I didn't want you to be over sensitive.
You know you can trust me.
Your boyfriend only sells properties, not his body.
Fu Xiao Ning, you already lied to me once.
And for sure, you'll do it again next time.
How should I trust you?
There'll be no next time.
Let me go.
Xi Shan, I swear.
There's really nothing between Luo Zu Er and me.
I merely drank with her.
But you need to understand.
I need to work and make a living.
I have to work for our future.
I don't want you to eat cheap food...
and live in a rented house with me for a lifetime.
You clearly spent the night fooling around,
with a young and rich girl.
Your whole body is covered with the scent of perfume.
And you said you did it for me?
I didn't fool around.
If I was out there fooling around,
I didn't have to rush back.
I admit it.
It was my fault that I met with Ms. Luo.
I lied.
I didn't want to spend the money for the cab.
But I was afraid that you would be worried.
I ran all the way back. That's the truth.
Can you not be mad?
Please understand. All right?
You're yelling at me,
how could I understand you?
Fu Xiao Ning.
You kept saying that it was for our sake.
Let me ask you.
If the word "us" no longer exist,
what does the future hold?
- Where are you going? - I can't stay here anymore.
It's late at night. It's not safe out there.
Jing Ran.
Why did you come so early?
I brought you some breakfast.
We still have three hours before we set out.
I want to spend more time with you.
- Come in then. - All right.
You have so many things.
Is a suitcase enough for you?
I'm feeling troubled because of this too. What should I do?
I still have to fit them in even if I can't.
Come on.
Leave it to me.
Eat breakfast first.
I can do it myself.
Don't worry. Just leave it to me.
- Thank you. - Quickly eat up.
Thank you.
I will go and help you pack your luggage.
Can you be my girlfriend?
Wait for me to return to the country.
Mom.
Don't cry.
Excuse me.
- Hi, sir. - Well.
Well, I want an upgrade.
You want an upgrade, sir?
We have extra first-class seats.
Well.
I was just kidding.
- Sorry. - All right.
Well.
Can you please get me a paper and a pen?
- All right. - Thanks.
- Sir, please hold on. - Okay.
- All right. Thanks. - Sir, your pen and paper.
Facial nerve paralysis.
I am...
the young talent.
Height.
I'm 184cm tall.
He's surely shorter than me.
I'll assume you're 180cm tall.
He's 30 years old.
I'm 25 years old this year.
I win in this aspect.
I'm younger than him, right?
He's a designer.
My profession...
I might have a huge business in the future.
Right? Leave it pending first.
Income.
For a year.
He can earn four million.
Let's put it three million, all right?
As for me...
I'll earn a lot in the future.
Let's leave this pending for now too.
My hobbies.
The one on the left is surely better.
How so?
No. Can't you see?
He's already 30 years old.
Thirties is the golden age for men.
In terms of character, he'll be more mature.
His career will be more stable too.
No, that's not called being mature.
It's called uncompassionate.
Got it?
A tall, cool, and handsome 30-year-old designer.
Isn't that the standard of a man in the love novel?
What do you mean standard of a man?
No, tell me about it.
Why is it the one on the right isn't good?
Tell me properly. Why is the one on the right not good?
Look. The profession is pending.
The income is also pending.
He wouldn't even dare to write it.
What does that prove?
It must mean that both his income and profession are not presentable.
No.
That's enough. Just put the child to sleep.
Zhen Zhen, wait for me.
I am going to push a luggage cart.
All right.
Zhen Zhen, wait for me.
What do you mean "wait for you"?
Did he text the wrong person?
Hi.
The number you dialled is unavailable.
Two points. Three points.
Open the door by yourself. Didn't bring the key again.
Bomb.
This kid.
Son, you didn't bring the key again?
Jeez.
Quickly come in.
Ms. Bai.
Xiao Shao.
Let me look at you. How are you?
I'm doing fine. How are you?
- I'm fine. - You look great.
Just got off the plane?
I just got off the plane.
- You look well. - That's right.
Did you miss me?
Yes.
Xiao Shao, look.
I'm playing the Fight the Landlord that you taught me.
- Did you win? - By one point.
One point?
I was wondering.
Zhen Zhen came but why didn't you come along?
You're here today. Come over.
You're here today because your superior asked you to?
Or did you come here on your own?
On my own.
I'm worried about her.
Ms. Bai, you know how she is.
I'm afraid that she would ruin the transaction...
and couldn't answer to the superior. So, I came to help her.
You should know that Zhen Zhen is a little foolish at times.
I'm worried.
- Well, Ms. Bai. - Yes?
Are you home alone?
Zhen Zhen isn't around?
I was watching a movie using my phone on the plane.
My phone ran out of battery.
I don't know where she went.
Well, Shao.
You're too late.
I'm afraid you can't catch up to Zhen Zhen.
No.
What do you mean I'm too late, and I can't catch up to her?
What does that mean?
Zhen Zhen went back to China.
Jing Ran sent her.
I suppose they're serving drinks on the plane now.
Right, Xiao Shao.
Let me tell you.
I need to share with you the joyous occasion.
Do you know about Jing Ran and Zhen Zhen?
Let me tell you.
The thought of it makes me happy.
Jing Ran is dating Zhen Zhen.
Xiao Shao, let me tell you.
Throughout this period of time,
after Jing Ran has taken care of the things in Italy,
he'll return to China to propose to Zhen Zhen.
Aren't you happy for us?
You must be tired.
Take a seat first. I'll cook for you.
Beef dumpling is your favourite, right?
I'll wrap it for you.
Also, your favourite beef steak on a sizzling iron plate.
That's right. I still remember.
The steamed crab.
Hold on. Take a rest first.
I'll get to it right away.
It's about time.
Go in now.
I'll get going then.
Okay.
Look after Ms. Bai.
Also, take care of yourself.
You need to take care of yourself too.
All right. Go on.
Sorry.
Zhen Zhen is already on the plane.
Had I known she could return from the wolf's lair on her own,
I wouldn't have travelled this far.
Shao Peng Cheng.
Cheng Zhen Zhen is my girlfriend now.
Both of you aren't suitable together.
We aren't suitable together? What does it have to do with you?
You don't know what she wants.
Does a child of a rich man who idles about,
know what she needs?
As for love,
Zhen Zhen is still immersed in a fantasy of a little girl.
One day, she will grow up.
When she grows up, she'll know what she wants.
She will also know that the world of fantasy,
is completely different from reality.
Be it in fantasy or in reality,
I have the confidence...
to give her the life that she wants.
I don't have to talk this much to you.
I just want to remind you.
When you get back,
I hope you can keep your distance from Zhen Zhen.
Do you understand when I put it that way?
Hey, son.
When did you come back?
I didn't hear you.
Xiao Shao, you...
What are you doing?
Ms. Bai, look after your health.
When I have the chance,
I'll eat the dumplings that you make.
No.
It's time to eat, Xiao Shao. Eat first...
This is...
Look.
What has it turned into?
Son.
I really think Xiao Shao is a good kid.
Jing Ran, let me tell you.
If it's not because you're my son,
I think Xiao Shao and Zhen Zhen are quite a good match.
Mom.
Whose side are you on?
I...
I'm just lamenting about it, okay?
Hey.
- Aren't you worried? - What about?
Quickly go back to China, and propose to Zhen Zhen.
I can only be at peace when both of you get married.
Mom, I believe in Zhen Zhen.
I believe that our relationship,
can stand any tests.
Yes, I believe that too. But...
But look at Xiao Shao.
He's at her heels. And he came all the way to Italy.
Don't take it lightly, all right?
Mom, don't worry.
I'm serious with Zhen Zhen.
I can sense that Zhen Zhen is serious with me as well.
So, I won't let others stand the chance to take advantage of it.
I promise you, in two months...
In two months, we'll return to China. All right?
That's more like it.
What time is it now? Why isn't he here yet?
It's very late.
Manager, Shao Peng Cheng's phone is still switched off.
Still switched off?
Shao Peng Cheng can't stay good for long.
Previously, he would at least apply for leave.
Now, he became worse and didn't apply for leave.
He just went absent without even informing me.
Is Mr. Shao going to arrive soon?
He's on his way. We called him just now.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Why don't you get inside, and have a drink?
He'll arrive soon. I'll get him here soon.
- All right. - I'm so sorry.
Manager Zeng.
Why don't I get it signed in his stead?
No, I'm not trying to snatch his client.
I just want to do Xiao Shao a favour.
What if he has something urgent,
and couldn't make it in time?
Regardless,
we should get the contract signed first.
All right.
Quickly prepare the details.
Morning, everyone.
Zhen Zhen, you're back.
Zhen Zhen.
The client for three rooms and two bathrooms is here.
Quickly get the deal signed.
Isn't that Shao Peng Cheng's client? Where is he?
I wanted to ask you where Shao Peng Cheng went to.
- Hao Mei Li, hurry up. - Pass the contract to Zhen Zhen.
Get it signed first.
Manager, hold on.
I haven't changed my clothes.
Look at the situation now. No need to get changed.
He's waiting for you.
Quickly get in there. He's waiting inside.
- The conference room - All right.
Hi, everyone.
Good morning, ma'am and sir. Hi, everyone.
I'm Cheng Zhen Zhen.
I'm Xiao Shao's colleague.
He has something to do. So, he couldn't make it.
I'll serve all of you on his behalf, to sign this real estate contract.
I'm very familiar with the details of your transactions.
So, don't worry.
It was Xiao Shao and me who made the arrangements,
for your home décor.
- All right. - Thanks.
Thank you.
Let me take a look.
This is the contract. It's the formal layout.
We have filled in all the information that is required.
Please take a look and verify it.
If there is nothing wrong with the information,
we can get it signed.
Thank you.
(Shanghai Real Estate Sale and Purchase Agreement)
All right. Take a look at this.
Give it to me.
Take a look.
No, Miss Cheng.
I think, here's the thing.
We're the girl's parents.
We paid the money as well.
But only Tian Gang's name is on it.
This isn't right.
Mrs. Yu, here's the thing.
Mr. Tian and Ms. Yu are a married couple.
So, no matter whose name is this house under,
this house is a community property that belongs to both of them.
It's legally protected.
Ms. Cheng, here's the thing.
Although Xiao Tian and your daughter,
has held the wedding reception in Shanghai,
and invited their colleagues and friends,
they haven't gotten the marriage certificate.
They plan to go back to the hometown to get the marriage certificate,
after buying a house in Shanghai.
Well, without the marriage certificate, this house...
is still not their community property, right?
That's indeed an issue.
How about this?
In order to protect the legitimate rights...
and both of their interests,
I suggest the house to be registered in both Mr. Tian and Ms. Yu's names.
- All right. That's right. - That should be the way.
Ms. Cheng, may I ask,
if the house is registered in their names.
does it matter whose name comes first or later?
Don't worry. That doesn't matter at all.
Both of them share equal ownership of the house.
Look.
We paid more down payment compared to the girl's family.
Who are they to get equal rights?
In-law, I don't get it.
This is a professional organization.
If they said it's equal.
so it is.
Besides, they'll get the marriage certificate soon.
You raised such a weird question.
I feel worried about marrying my daughter into your family.
Hey!
We paid the down payment for our son.
That's all mine and his father's savings.
We've emptied out all our retirement funds.
The divorce rate of young couples is high now.
What if something goes wrong with the marriage in the future?
Our retirement funds would shrink.
You thought of this even before they get married.
- In-law. - No.
- In-law. - You want many things.
In-law.
- No. - I'm telling you.
I get what you mean.
We share the same concern.
That's right.
We paid for the down payment too.
We paid 100,000 Yuan lesser as compared to you.
But having said that,
my daughter has a higher income than your son, right?
In the amount that they paid out,
my daughter paid more.
If it's based on the conclusion you made,
when they repay the loan,
my daughter will be paying more.
You're afraid that we'll take advantage of you.
Look. Now, we are worried,
that our daughter will be at a disadvantage.
In-law, I don't like what you said.
You said that Xian Xian has higher income than Tian Gang,
in front of the outsider.
Are you trying to humiliate my son?
- You... - That's right.
I'm not wrong.
That's the truth.
It's not right.
- Calm down. - Was I wrong?
That's not right of you to do that.
How could you do that?
Calm down.
Listen to me.
Please sit down and talk.
Actually, I could tell that Mr. Tian and Ms. Yu,
love each other very much.
Since both families will become a family,
let's not say things that will hurt the feelings.
I also know that the four of you,
have shelled out your savings,
so that your children can buy a house in Shanghai.
I'm deeply moved by that.
I'm thinking if there's a way,
so that everyone can have a balance of mind,
and to protect the interests of each of you?
Ms. Yu, am I right?
Given our current situation,
is there any good solution to it?
Actually, there's a way.
We can get the house registered in the names of the six of you.
Also, we can list out the ratio of capital contribution.
- There's such a thing? - We can do that?
We can have the house registered in such a way?
Mrs. Yu, here's the thing.
Ms. Cheng.
If we have the house registered in such a way,
that's too cold and impersonal, isn't it?
That's right. We haven't gotten the marriage certificate,
yet it feels like we're preparing for a divorce.
That's right.
Actually, I think there's a benefit,
to have the house registered, under the names of six of you.
Think about it.
When you open up the premises permit,
you'll think of this moment.
The house is established,
and anticipated by the six of you together.
If you encounter any obstacles in your marriage,
open up this premises permit.
You'll think of your parents' expectation of you.
Then, you'll not easily rip up,
the marriage commitment that you now have.
Also, sir, and ma'am can keep this in mind.
Actually, both of them,
want to live their lives well better than anyone.
So, when it’s appropriate,
you need to let go.
Let me live their own happy lives.
That makes sense.
That's right. Ms. Cheng is right.
What should we do now?
Register all our names on it.
- That's right. The six of us. - Let's sign it.
All right.
If there's no problem,
let me guide you in signing it. All right?
All right.
Take a good look before you sign.
- Take a good look. - How should we sign this?
Look at the information here.
Where are you?
Why didn't you come to work?
Shao Peng Cheng, where did you go?
Manager Zeng got so pissed off by you.
She said if you don't show up tomorrow,
you'll be fired. It's not up for negotiation.
Well, you're back.
That's right. I just helped you,
to sign the contract of a group purchase of six people.
Jeez.
You made an appointment with them.
Why didn't you show up?
Did you go to the internet café to play games again?
I had things to do.
What was more important than signing the contract with the client?
Well.
All right. I don't care what was so important.
But you need to come to work at once.
Do you hear me?
Well, leave your work.
I'll treat all of you to mala soup for lunch.
Zhen Zhen, Mei Li, let's go together.
I'm not going.
I'm not going either. I'm feeling a little tired today.
Thank you.
It's so tiring.
She just got off the plane, carried a huge luggage,
and came to the office.
She even signed a huge deal.
How can she not be tired?
No one's going?
Fu Xiao Ning.
Ms. Luo.
You stood up for me last night.
All right. Let's go and have morning tea.
Then, we'll check out another few houses.
What's the matter? Not willing to?
No, of course. Well...
it's my job to show clients the houses.
Let's go.
Xi Shan.
Let me show you the new toy that I just bought.
What's the matter? Having a bad mood?
Why are you crying? Who upsets you?
You broke up?
With whom?
It's fine. It's just dating.
It's very normal.
Those long divided shall be united, those long united shall be divided..
Don't take it to heart.
Learn from me.
Don't pull a long face like a resentful woman.
Look. You look like a bitter gourd.
If not you, who will he dump, right?
A smart woman must learn to manage herself.
First, be independent.
Not just financially independent.
Be independent in terms of personality too.
Also, be pretty. Think about it.
You're rich and pretty.
Who dares to dump you, right?
By then, those people will be at your heels.
You'll even find them annoying.
Stop crying. Look.
Such beautiful eyes. Look what have they become.
There are wrinkles.
Look. Have you used this before?
Marubi eye cream. I've been using this.
It's very nice to use. Let me tell you.
It's very suitable for Asian women.
The skin is moisturised, smooth and tender after applying it.
It absorbs quickly.
What is the most important thing?
The effect is good and it really works.
Look at you.
The eyes of such a pretty girl.
The wrinkles emerge because you cry all day long.
I'll let you use it, all right?
Hey.
Why did she walk away?
(Seek to Purchase)
Are you satisfied?
Buying Rosewood International Apartment on behalf of the client.
One unit at Lilac Park. There's...
Love and Family's property purchase information.
- Please get to know about it. - All right. Thanks.
Thanks.
There'll be people selling houses when you wrote it like that?
You've always wanted to buy a house in this neighbourhood, right?
I took heed of what you said.
When I'm free, I'll give out flyers around here.
I have talked several times with the owners of the houses around here.
Then, I knocked from door to door,
asking who's interested to sell the house.
- Really? - Yes.
That's right. If not, who are you going to buy from?
- Xiao Fu. - Hi, ma'am.
- You're here to give out flyers? - That's right.
Ma'am, if you need help with your house,
just give me a call.
Don't look for the real estate company. They aren't as quick as me.
Thanks for the other time.
You did me a great favour.
I'm always on the lookout for you for those who want,
to sell their houses in this neighbourhood.
Thanks, ma'am.
All right. Do your work then.
- All right. - I'll leave first.
All right. See you, ma'am.
All right. See you.
You're good.
You're so close with the owners.
I went knocking from door to door.
I happened to meet that lady.
She was alone at home,
and her water pipe broke.
She called the estate management.
They didn't come.
I fixed the water pipe on my own.
You know how to fix the water pipe?
I always thought you have an outstanding achievement,
because you are able to connect with people easily.
But this time, I realized.
You're really very professional.
I must do something practical.
Come on, dedicated young man.
Let's take a photo.
Come on.
Three, two, one.
Let me see.
Is this all right?
Not bad. I think it looks good.
Share it on your social media account.
What?
I want someone to see it.
In this world,
what's so good about a handsome man with sharp tongue?
There are many handsome young men who can communicate well...
and who are professional, right?
Come on. Let's edit it.
That's right. Write this.
Nice scenery with a pretty lady.
All right. That will do.
I'm posting it.
Ms. Luo, are you satisfied?
Okay.
Did anyone contact you?
To be honest...
the home owners in this community aren't in need of money.
There's no one who wants to sell the house.
But don't worry.
I'll surely find you a house that you're satisfied with.
I'll wait for your good news.
- All right. - I think...
- Excuse me, sir. - Yes?
Do you want to sell your house?
Are you from Rosewood International Apartment?
- Are you a home owner? - Yes.
If you would like to sell your house,
you can contact our agent.
It’s less than two minutes.
Xi Shan probably didn't see it.
