(My True Friend)
(Episode 25)
Let me die.
Don't do that.
- Let me die. - Dr. Li, Dr. Li!
- Dr. Li. - Be careful of the knife.
Let go of me.
Let go of me! Let go!
Let go of me.
Let go of me!
- Dr. Li, don't act rashly! - Let go of me!
- Zhen Zhen, are you all right? - I'm fine.
- Are you hurt? - Get up.
- Let go of me! - Don't be so irrational.
- Are you hurt? - Let go of me!
Let's go to the hospital quickly. Go!
Let go of me!
I'll take you to the hospital as well.
What's wrong with your arm?
It's fine.
- Here, let's go out first. - Let's go.
Slow down.
Be careful.
Ms. Wu.
My dear.
- Ms. Wu. - My dear.
Wu Qing, I was wrong.
Don't leave me. I can't live without you.
My dear.
I won't ever part with you again.
Let's go to the hospital quickly.
Here, Zhen Zhen. Let me look at you.
Are you hurt?
I'm fine. Don't worry.
- I'm sorry, Zhen Zhen. - I should have been here sooner.
I'm really fine.
Jing Ran, give me a minute.
You're badly injured.
We should bring you to the hospital first.
I'm fine.
Zhen Zhen, isn't Mr. Mu here?
Why don't we have him send Shao Peng Cheng to the hospital?
You've had such a huge shock today.
It's best to leave with me first.
That's right. Don't worry about me.
I can head home myself.
Shao Peng Cheng.
Thank you for what you did today.
I only did what I had to do.
Shao Peng Cheng, you...
Zhen Zhen, are you all right?
I'm fine. Thank you, Ms. Zeng.
It's good that you're all right.
Why didn't you answer your phone?
You have no idea how worried the three of us are looking for you.
I'm sorry.
It's all right.
All right, Mr. Jing.
Zhen Zhen is okay anyway.
It's also getting late.
Escort her home quickly to get some rest.
Sure.
I'll drop you off back at your place on the way.
- Let's go. - Thanks.
Hey!
Peng Cheng was slightly injured in the arm.
I'll take him to the hospital now so you don't have to worry.
What's wrong with Peng Cheng? What happened?
Don't panic. Here's what happened.
There's a bit of a conflict at the house Mr. Jing bought.
The owner broke down and tried to commit suicide.
In order to save Zhen Zhen,
Peng Cheng had hurt his arm.
- Who did he save? Cheng Zhen Zhen? - Yes.
I see.
Take Peng Cheng home and call a doctor to our place.
Drive slowly and be careful.
Yes.
Peng Cheng.
Your father already knows you are injured.
He wants you to come home quickly.
He already called a doctor to go to your place.
- All right. - Let's go. I'll take you home.
Have you calmed down?
You're really not hurt today, are you?
I'm not. You're so...
I'll take the sofa and you can have the bedroom.
Just call me if you need anything.
Thank you.
Zhen Zhen.
Do you know how anxious and worried I am...
when I can't get a hold of you today?
I'm sorry, Jing Ran.
I didn't mean to.
I've been handling Dr. Li's issue all day.
I didn't check my cell phone much.
I also didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Fortunately, Shao Peng Cheng was there today.
Otherwise, I don't even know what will happen to Dr. Li.
I'm also quite grateful to him.
How about this?
When I get some free time in the next few days,
I'll go and visit him.
I used to think that...
Shao Peng Cheng is like a child who never grew up.
I didn't expect that...
he would save me from that dangerous situation today.
I think he's quite responsible.
Zhen Zhen.
I want you to promise me.
Whatever happens, you must never lose contact with me. All right?
I understand. I'm sorry.
Zhen Zhen.
I know that you're a kind...
and pure-minded girl with aspirations.
But the environment you now work in is really complicated.
You interact with different kinds of people every day.
Just like today.
If anything really happens to you, what am I going to do?
Can't you quit this job?
Jing Ran.
What happened today was an unforeseen accident.
Do you want me to stop working because of that?
I'm not saying you can't work.
What I mean is...
maybe you can just get another job.
For example, work at my office.
That way, I can see you every day and look after you.
Jing Ran.
Not that I don't want to work in your office...
but...
I really like working at the Hua Yuan Store.
I also have many clients.
I haven't found suitable houses for them yet.
Jing Ran.
I have responsibilities that I wish to fulfill.
I've been thinking about this lately.
Actually, I've already prepared this a long time ago.
I got it when I was in Italy.
I wanted to wait until your parents visit...
but I really want to propose to you officially.
I can't wait any longer.
Zhen Zhen.
Give me a chance.
Let me be the one to look after you and protect you.
I believe I am capable of that.
I won't...
I won't lose to anyone else.
Please give me the right to do so. Please?
Zhen Zhen...
I know that proposing like this seems too sudden and brusque.
But I...
I've thought this over long and hard.
My feelings for you are real.
I'm serious about you.
Jing Ran, I'm sorry.
I wish to go home alone.
I want time to myself.
Don't worry. I'm really all right.
Thank you.
Dad.
I've asked the doctor.
The wound on your arm isn't serious.
It will heal in a few days after applying the medication.
Have a glass of hot milk before going to bed.
I heard from Yun Ping that...
you haven't recovered from your cold.
Don't forget to take your medicine before bed.
You'll recover sooner.
When your mom was alive,
she would make you a glass of hot milk every night...
before you went to bed.
Whenever you were ill, you would only tell her.
Fortunately, I never told you.
How can you have medicine with milk?
If you take it with milk,
it will affect the effect of the medicine.
Besides, Mom used to bring me...
a full glass of milk.
This is just half a glass.
I overheated the milk.
Half of it boiled over.
I heard from Yun Ping that today...
you protected that partner of yours,
Cheng Zhen Zhen and got injured?
It's actually not that dramatic.
When in danger,
isn't it right to protect a female comrade?
I know that girl.
She has a good character.
Jing Ran asked for her to negotiate the deal in Italy.
By the way,
I heard that today's accident happened...
because of the house Jing Ran bought.
She's just too kind.
She never wants to hurt anyone so she always ends up deceived.
As for being partners,
two people should complement each other.
Only then will they have a greater potential...
and make progress together.
By the way, Dad, speaking of which,
I've actually conducted a market survey and analysis lately.
Actually, I have some new ideas about the rental business.
Can we talk about it?
It's quite late now.
What's more, you're injured. You should rest.
Another day. We'll make time for it some other day.
I'll be sure to listen to your ideas.
All right.
Why delay it for another day?
My injury isn't serious. It's just...
All right now, behave.
Get some rest.
Don't forget to take your medicine.
Good night.
Actually, I've already prepared this a long time ago.
I got it when I was in Italy.
I wanted to wait until your parents visit...
but I really want to propose to you officially.
I can't wait any longer.
Give me a chance.
I believe I am capable of that.
I won't...
I won't lose to anyone else.
Please give me the right to do so. Please?
I think being a real estate agent...
is tough and a lot of work.
And people look down on you.
You don't get paid much either,
and there are not many opportunities.
Why don't you just quit the job?
Shao Peng Cheng, are you all right?
Is your wound dressed?
Are you in bed?
Zhen Zhen.
Please come in.
- Mr. Jing, this way. - Thank you.
Chairman, Mr. Jing has arrived.
- Mr. Jing. - Chairman.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
It's Love and Family's honour that you accepted our invitation.
Here, have a seat.
- Sure. Thank you. - Yun Ping, make some tea.
Here, please have a seat.
Chairman, thank you for your kindness.
I'm also happy to develop my career here in my home country.
Indeed, indeed.
Chairman, I have something...
Cheng Peng, good timing.
I have good news.
Mr. Jing has accepted our invitation...
to be the interior designer for our company's building.
I heard that you two had some misunderstanding.
Quickly, apologize to Mr. Jing.
Chairman, an apology isn't necessary.
Chairman.
I'm here today to talk to you about my new idea.
Here's the proposal.
I've conducted many market surveys lately.
I discovered that it's not wise to blindly invest in new real estate.
However, the first and second-hand housing rental market is infinite.
Therefore, I think that Love and Family...
should start-up a new business module called,
"Youth Apartment."
You just started training as a rank-and-file employee.
Do you already know all about the real estate market?
You have ideas and thoughts.
That's good.
We should pick another time if you wish to report this to me.
I have official matters to discuss with Mr. Jing now.
Get back to work.
Exactly, Peng Cheng.
In the company,
the plan to develop new buildings has been assessed cautiously.
The board already approved of it.
You don't have to worry about it.
That sounds problematic.
The board approved it?
Does it mean it's right just because the board approved it?
Our country has dished out so many...
new policies to curb housing prices. Why?
It's because the cost of real estate development...
is at its limit.
We are well aware of that.
Why are we walking right into such a cruel battle? Right?
Besides, the infinite business potential I spoke of,
I didn't make that up. It's not sheer nonsense.
I had written a detailed explanation of it in my proposal.
Take a look at it first.
I've already told you.
If you have any ideas, report it to me another day.
I have matters to discuss with Mr. Jing now.
Why don't you have any manners at all?
I was just...
We'll talk later.
Mr. Jing, I'm sorry.
It's fine, Chairman.
I'm here this time to talk...
about planning my schedules in the coming days.
I still have some work to wrap up in Italy at the moment...
I have to head back to handle them.
I have already planned to buy a house recently.
I also wish to discuss with my girlfriend about the renovation.
So it will take some time before I can confirm to you...
when I will be able to start this job.
Sure, Mr. Jing.
Get things settled down at home first.
I'll instruct my staff.
They will get everything ready first before you get started.
Thank you, Chairman.
If you run into any problems in Shanghai,
just come to me or Mr. Mu.
You are welcome to ask us anytime.
We'll be a family soon.
Then I won't take more of your time today.
I'll get going.
- It's a pleasure to have met you. - Thank you.
Well, Yun Ping.
- Walk Mr. Jing out. - Yes.
This way, Mr. Jing.
He didn't even have tea.
Answer me. What exactly are you trying to do?
What do you mean?
I finally managed to invite Mr. Jing...
to be our building's interior designer.
You suddenly barged in and said so much about...
the future decline of the real estate market.
Did you do that on purpose?
Why do you think I did it on purpose?
How is that any nonsense?
I'm just telling the truth.
No, you're just hiring Jing Ran...
as the interior designer, aren't you?
Do you have to like that?
Look at how subservient you were just now.
Did you have to?
What's more, do you really not understand...
the future prospect of real estate development?
I've conducted many market surveys recently.
I think that our company's current development strategy...
is highly risky.
Love and Family...
doesn't carry as much clout as those big real estate agencies.
Therefore we have to find...
a niche market that suits us.
I've studied that abroad.
It's called the niche market.
Niche whatever market or not, listen up.
Whatever the foreigners do won't work in China.
I sent you to train as a rank-and-file employee,
not to daydream all day long.
Can you not disregard all my effort?
I've worked hard to come up with this proposal.
You didn't even take a look at it.
You already denied me of my work before you even listened to me.
I'll leave it here for you.
Read it if you want.
If not, just throw it out. Do whatever you like.
Stop right there.
You're going to leave after messing things up?
I'll make it clear to you again.
Do your job as a rank-and-file employee.
Stop stirring up trouble for me again.
What do you mean I've stirred up trouble for you again?
In your eyes, I guess, I'll never amount to anything.
You told me to tell you about my ideas.
I've told you now but then you wouldn't listen.
Forget it if you won't listen.
If you have any good ideas,
you should also come to me at a good timing.
This...
That kid.
When will he grow up?
Guys, have you heard about what happened yesterday?
Xiao Shao came and rescued Zhen Zhen.
He risked his own safety. He's so cool!
We have a hero in our store.
Look at how she is. Look at her.
We have a hero in our store.
Acting bravely for a just cause is a virtue.
Everyone would do so.
That's not likely.
If it were you, would you?
Exactly. Would you?
Well, it depends on who I'm saving.
See?
But honestly, Peng Cheng is usually quite sharp-tongued and picky.
But at crucial times, he's really very manly.
He's made us very proud.
I think that Ms. Wu and Dr. Li...
should give Shao a huge banner.
Ms. Zeng, am I right?
I also think that Shao Peng Cheng should be commended this time.
I'll apply to the headquarters...
to see if he can get a reward for bravery.
That banner you just mentioned,
I can get it ordered. We'll hang it in our store.
Everyone can learn to act bravely for a just cause.
- Yes. - Right, it's true.
All right, don't just keep chatting.
Go and get things done.
- Yes. - Yes.
Listen, just hang it on this wall.
You. Learn well.
Take a look at it every day. Take a look at him.
I'll go and help other people, too.
The hero has returned. Quickly!
Speaking of the devil.
It still hurts. It hurts.
Don't hold back from giving him a big hand.
Make some noise quickly.
Be more enthusiastic. Make more noise!
Listen, Peng Cheng.
I even idolize you now. For real.
No, I...
- Back then, what did you feel? - No, I...
Shao Peng Cheng, how is your injury?
I'm all right.
I've bought you breakfast.
You should have lighter meals for now.
You're still injured.
Thanks.
- Zhen Zhen, are you all right? - I'm fine.
You're involved in it.
Tell us what happened then.
I heard Xiao Shao not only saved Dr. Li...
but also played Prince Charming. Am I right?
Tell us about it.
Yesterday, it's all thanks to Shao Peng Cheng.
- Zhen Zhen. - Yes?
Are you okay?
Did you rest well last night?
Look at the dark circles under your eyes.
You must be terrified by what happened yesterday?
I heard that Jing Ran...
took you to the hotel afterwards, didn't he?
Did he comfort you?
No, Jing Ran surely was extremely gentle and sweet, right?
Tell us what happened.
Share it with us.
Give us the details.
Share the story with us.
Zhen Zhen, I'd like some coffee.
Come with me to get some?
Sure, let's go.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Xi Shan makes such a fuss.
Zhen Zhen.
There's something I wish to say to you.
Mr. Jing is young and successful. He's also very handsome.
He's the boyfriend that many girls dream of having.
And he's also very good to you.
But I always thought that...
you're particularly uneasy around him.
He wants me to quit my job...
and stay home as a housewife.
He wants to provide for you?
I just think that...
no one should become dependent on another person.
Even if we really get married and have children,
I think that I should also have my own job?
I should also have something I'm fond of doing.
Otherwise, life will be so boring.
Zhen Zhen, you're right.
Girls should be like you.
Brave and strong.
Only then will you be happy.
Since you have yet to decide,
you should just set that problem aside first.
Time will give you an answer.
I hope so.
But I always have this feeling...
that if I choose to be with Jing Ran,
I'll have to give up my work and life.
But if I choose my job,
I might lose Jing Ran forever.
If so,
doesn't that mean Xiao Shao stands a chance?
You see, he is quite good-looking as well.
And he really likes you.
No, he's really good to you.
Xi Shan, you mustn't say that so freely.
This...
The two of you.
Instead of working hard,
you're out here having ice cream?
Hey. Where's mine?
Your arm is injured. You can't have anything cold.
Then I want a hamburger.
- Come with me to get one. - What?
I'm also coming along.
I also want one.
Jing Ran dropped you off this morning?
What? I came to work on my own.
I even bought you breakfast.
When did you get home last night?
Last night...
A bit after midnight?
You got home after midnight?
What did you do all night?
Jing Ran bought me dinner last night.
What is it?
What did you do after having dinner?
I went home after having dinner.
You didn't go with Jing Ran to the hotel?
What are you talking about?
You definitely didn't wash your hair last night?
I did. Cut it out.
You keep saying every day that I don't wash my hair.
How is your arm recovering?
Does it still hurt?
What is it? Are you concerned about me?
- Stop teasing me. - Are you concerned about me?
I just think it was all my fault.
I always trust people so easily.
I'm sorry.
In this world,
there are two things you must not look directly at.
One, the sunlight.
Two, the human mind.
Therefore, don't think too slightly of people's kindness.
At the same time, don't underestimate their malice.
I made it sound so complicated. Can you understand what I mean?
- You're a fool to know. - Who's a fool?
Fine, you're the smartest in the world.
Don't buy too much.
Stop nagging. Go and pay for them.
I'm paying again?
Hello, welcome.
I'll get you a bag.
It's 15.63 dollars in total.
Hey. Let me look at your hands.
What is it with my hands?
- Aren't they pretty? - What is this?
It's a fried egg.
Why did you get me a fried egg?
Don't take it off.
I'll give you a fried egg.
It means I want to remind you...
to bring me breakfast every morning, okay?
Don't take it off. Keep it on.
How much is it?
Hello, it's 17.08 dollars in total.
- Okay, 17.08 dollars - A fried egg.
Do you have churros?
Ms. Bai, have some tea.
Thank you.
Ms. Bai.
Mr. Jing, Ms. Cheng.
I'm here today with my husband to apologize to you.
I hope you can forgive us.
It was me.
I've made an unforgivable mistake.
I shouldn't have swindled the deposit.
Moreover...
I shouldn't have tried to kill myself after losing all hope.
Thank you, Mr. Shao and Ms. Cheng.
You saved me at a critical time.
You made me want to live my life again.
I sincerely apologize to each of you.
Please forgive me.
Ms. Bai.
I'm really sorry.
As for the house, I've discussed it with my husband.
If you'd still like to buy it,
we're willing to sell it to you at a discounted price.
In addition, if you don't want to push through it,
we'll return the deposit to you in full.
Ms. Wu.
Let's sit and talk.
Thank you.
Ms. Bai, Mr. Jing, Zhen Zhen.
So much has happened during this transaction.
There's even a dangerous incident.
As the store manager, I also owe you an apology.
But since everyone is present today,
I'd like to express my opinion.
Just take it as a suggestion or a reference.
First of all, the house itself is fine.
It's not a haunted house either.
As for the requirements, it meets what Ms. Bai requested.
This kind of opportunity really is hard to come by.
Now that Dr. Li and Ms. Wu...
express their sincerity by lowering the price,
this discount is really worth it.
Although they are at fault in the first place,
it's commendable to turn over a new leaf.
They also demonstrated it through their own actions now.
Apart from that, as realtors,
when handling such a situation,
Love and Family was also at fault for being careless.
Therefore, we'll transact without any commission for this deal.
Customers always come first to our company.
We still hope that we can assist all of you in sealing this deal.
Therefore, would the both of you...
seriously consider buying this house again?
Ms. Zeng, thank you.
As for the house,
I'll respect my mom's decision.
So much has happened recently.
I don't wish for my mother to feel uneasy living in that house.
I understand.
Ms. Bai, as for your concerns,
I can particularly empathize with you.
Don't we have this old saying?
"Good things never come easily."
Look, this house has undergone so many accidents...
and still, everything ended well.
What does that tell us?
It implies that the house is indeed a blessed one.
Xiao Hao.
Do you think I'm old and muddleheaded enough...
to believe what you said?
However, Ms. Zeng does have a point.
Turning over a new leaf is never too late.
Right? This is it.
Ms. Wu and Dr. Li also expressed their sincerity.
Besides, the both them have thought things through.
They wish to start over again.
I think this is also very good.
As for the house...
Both Xiao Shao and Zhen Zhen...
made a lot of effort for it.
Of course, now that Zhen Zhen is my future daughter-in-law,
I won't thank her.
The answer depends on Xiao Shao.
How is your arm?
It's all right.
Is it, really? That's good.
Honestly, I had a fright because of this house.
But both of them were in a dangerous situation then.
When that comes to my mind, I really feel...
So how should I say? This house...
What should I do about it?
Jing Ran, what's your opinion?
Mom, I know you well.
You're not considering the discount or the money, right?
As long as you feel comfortable...
and at ease with the situation,
why don't we just buy it?
Well...
How about this?
Since Zhen Zhen and Jing Ran like this house so much,
we will push through the purchase.
That's great, Ms. Bai.
It's right that you think so.
Besides, this house really is good.
In the future,
Mr. Jing and Zhen Zhen can get married and have kids in here.
Your family will be happy and harmonious, right?
Lead your life happily and blissfully.
How nice.
Xiao Hao.
I like what you just said.
Ms. Bai, thank you so much.
Dr. Li.
Be sure to treat Ms. Wu well for the rest of your life.
Yes.
Ms. Cheng, thank you so much.
You've trusted me, but I've only let you down.
Seeing you and Dr. Li overcome the past,
then, I think everything is worth it.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
In the past,
I used to think that I already have everything.
But then, I ended up with nothing.
However,
I now think that I've lived my life honestly.
People, house, money,
status, and reputation,
or even my appearance don't matter at all.
My family and the ones who love me are the ones who are truly precious.
Ms. Wu, what are your plans from now on?
I intend to take my husband to the states to have his face fixed.
After that, we'll stay there.
We'll start a new life.
Right, as for the house,
we'll try to repair it as soon as possible.
Mr. Jing and Ms. Bai need not to worry about it.
Thank you, Dr. Li. Thank you, Ms. Wu.
We'll meet again when we transfer ownership of the house.
Sure, goodbye.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Ms. Bai, for everything that happened because of the house,
I'm really very sorry about it.
Thank you for forgiving me.
Mom, this really isn't Zhen Zhen's fault.
I wasn't thoughtful enough.
I'm the one at fault.
All right, all right.
Stop trying to fight over who is at fault here.
It's all in the past now.
The outcome is pretty good.
Jing Ran, it seems that I was right to be worried in the past?
You're still young.
You still don't have enough experience.
How is it? Do you get it now?
It's still a lot more complicated out in the workforce.
You've learned that a fall in the pit, is a gain in your wit.
Moreover, whatever the both of you decide what to do from now on,
be sure to discuss with me.
I'm not going to make any decision for you...
but still, I'm more experienced than both of you, right?
Everything I do is for your best interests.
I understand, Ms. Bai.
I'll learn from my mistakes.
- Right. - All right, Mom.
Let's not talk about this, okay?
All right, let's not talk about it.
It's good that you know.
Anyway, this matter has concluded.
Nobody should mention it from now on.
Zhen Zhen, I have another matter to talk to you about.
I'd like to meet your parents soon...
and decide on a date for your wedding with Jing Ran.
Head home and discuss it with your parents.
Let's see if it's easier for your parents to come here...
or Jing Ran and I have to go and visit them?
Ms. Bai.
Isn't this too soon?
I haven't told my parents about this yet.
Silly girl.
All grown men and women must marry.
Since you and Jing Ran are in love,
I'm very happy about it.
It's just all up to your parents now.
All right, we'll talk and plan this matter very carefully, okay?
What do you think?
