[Return the World to You]
[Episode 29]
Director Lu, this is today's schedule.
Also, you need to reconfirm the order of the designers' works for the auction.
Director Shen, hello.
I am Deputy Editor-in-Chief Cen's assistant. My name is Bi Dong.
Hello. So you're Bi Dong.
I always hear about you from Wei Wei. Finally, we meet today.
She was the one who told me to come here and help.
Thank you, but where is she?
I just called her.
- She said she's on her way. She'll be here soon. - Okay.
Surprise!
Congratulations on YE Studio's Grand Opening.
- You did all of this? - Yes.
So you came back here so late last night...
in order to decorate all of this?
Does it look good?
Thank you, Wenxi.
If you really want to thank me, then when your company starts making a ton of money,
just give me a huge bonus.
Let's take this opportunity to take a picture together since no one's here yet.
Come over here.
Remember to refill the coffee as needed.
These pastries... add some more.
Afterward, the red wine and champagne need to be refilled as needed.
This tablecloth... fix up the tablecloth so it's neater.
Right, get someone to clean up over here.
Be sure to have them leave their names in the guest book. Also, remember to smile.
Yes.
The flowers must be lined up neatly. If there is time, please mist them with water.
Stop being so nervous.
Why does it feel like you're more nervous than I am?
Today is the Grand Opening of your studio.
I must make sure there isn't even a tiny little flaw.
Wenxi... thank you very much.
Stop it. Who told us to be good buddies.
Right, Boss sent over two bouquets of flowers. I put them over there. Aren't they pretty?
They're pretty, right?
Help me move this.
Welcome.
- Teacher Huo. - Teacher Huo.
You're so busy yet you came here personally.
It's the grand opening of your studio. No matter how busy I am, I must still come.
Teacher Huo, please come this way.
Not bad. It looks quite nice.
When you were in school, you were already very talented.
Now, you'll definitely have great success with the start of your own company.
Teacher Huo, thank you.
If it weren't for your support, YE wouldn't have been possible.
Why are you still being so courteous?
Wishing you... success.
This wine... keep it for now.
We'll wait until YE becomes the fashion industry's new star,
then we'll open it to celebrate.
Thank you, Teacher Huo.
Welcome, everyone.
However, I must say I'm sorry.
Everyone must find it strange.
Today's event space is not how auctions normally are.
It's overly simplistic.
There aren't any champagne or pastries.
There isn't even a single bottle of mineral water.
- Why is that? - [Tianqiao Young Designers Foundation, launching ceremony and auction.]
Tianqiao Young Designers Foundation is a charitable project.
We just want to help these new fashion designers;
or in other words, do something for the Chinese fashion industry.
Therefore, we eliminated all the unnecessary additions.
We just want every single penny from the foundation
to be used on these young fashion designers.
Also, I think everyone should remember
that when you accepted our invitation,
we stated that we didn't want any gifts.
We just ask that the flower you brought with you
is placed on our flower wall.
That's enough to express your sincerity.
We're doing this in the hopes that
everyone here will use the money they saved
on the following
auction of the works by these talented fashion designers. Thank you once again.
Next, let's welcome
the Vice-Chairman of the Tianqiao Designers Foundation
and also since the establishment of our foundation,
our largest sponsor,
Shen Yien. Ms. Shen, please come up on stage to say a few words.
Thank you to all our friends
for coming to participate in the Tianqiao Young Designers Foundation's auction event today.
I was very lucky to get invited by Chairman Lu
to participate in this project.
We will work together to help provide a platform for these new designers to achieve their dreams.
Helping these new fashion designers
has always been a dream for me and the love of my life.
I sincerely thank Chairman Lu
for providing us with such a great platform.
This will not only allow new designers to develop better,
but will also help us achieve our own dream.
Ms. Shen overpraised me.
Establishing the Tianqiao Young Designers Foundation is only the first step.
Moving forward, to sustain a healthy and lasting operation,
it will require tens of thousands of people
just like Ms. Shen.
Ones who feel a sense of responsibility, have dreams and are kind enough to participate.
Let us give them a round of applause.
Thank you.
Next, let's welcome the new fashion designers' representative,
Chen Boqian, to host the following auction event.
All right. Now, we will officially begin the auction.
Please take a look at the screen here.
This is our first piece.
Your speech was great.
I really feel happy for these new fashion designers.
and also feel happy to be able to take part in this.
While on the stage, there was something I didn't say.
I wanted to tell you when we were alone.
What is it?
Without your support, I wouldn't have been able to do all of this.
You had created this project even before I invested.
I only did a little part to express my intentions.
You really don't understand.
If it wasn't for you...
You really don't understand
how important your support is to me.
Teacher Huo.
I was overconfident.
Confidence is the prerequisite to success.
But overconfidence is like conceit.
I need to do some self-reflection.
I think you shouldn't overthink it too much.
You were just unlucky.
I don't believe in luck.
This so-called luck is actually an expression of one's ability.
I believe in your ability
because I believe in my own judgment.
Teacher Huo, don't worry. I won't let your investment fail.
Don't give yourself too much pressure.
I have something to do.
I'm leaving.
Time will prove itself.
I'll see you out.
Welcome to the YE studio.
Sister Cen Wei.
Deputy Editor-in-Chief Cen, hello.
Mr. Huo, hello.
I hope you will give us the opportunity to write an exclusive on you.
I'm already old.
Zhen Fashion Magazine should report more on young people like Qin Ye.
Don't worry. We will, we will.
You all chat together. I'll take my leave first.
Bye-bye.
- Take care, Teacher Hou. - Take care.
Sorry, I came late.
Don't worry. Having you come,
I'm already really happy.
[Congratulations to the YE Studio, from Shen Yien]
Yien stopped by already?
Uh... Boss didn't come. Someone else delivered the flowers.
You also know. Today, she...
I understand.
As long as you understand, that's good.
Well, I have to go see her soon. You won't blame me, right?
Of course not.
- I'll see you out. - No need.
No need. You carry on. I'm going.
I'm leaving now.
You are the main lead here today. Are you paying attention?
You know Qin Ye has his opening today as well.
I know. I just came from there.
How is it over there?
If you want to know, then just go and see.
What do you mean by just sending flowers?
I really want to go,
but things are so awkward between us right now.
Maybe it's best if I don't go.
You're here?
Yes. Today is such an important occasion. How could I not be here?
Director Lu, you're too handsome today.
Why don't we go on a date later?
Okay. Yien, let's all go together.
Me?
Yien needs to go to Qin Ye's opening later, right?
Qin Ye's opening is today as well?
Then, you really should go and congratulate him.
Since you want to go, why don't we all go together?
Let's wait a bit longer. More people will definitely show up later.
Do you really think more people will come today?
I'm afraid all of this will need to be thrown out.
Welcome to the YE studio!
It's even more deserted here than I imagined.
- Why are you here-- - Wenxi!
I'm here to congratulate you on your opening. Am I not welcome?
I don't think we invited you, right?
Everyone who comes today is our guest. Please come in.
Good. You really have improved a lot since before.
How come Shen Yien isn't here today on such an important day?
If you are here to congratulate me on my opening,
then I thank you.
However, if you're here to cause trouble, then you're no longer welcome here.
Did you hear that? You're not welcome here.
Welcome to the YE studio!
Boss!
Director Shen! It's been a while.
Why are you here?
I came to reminisce with Mr. Qin, isn't that right?
We've already said what needed to be said.
You can leave now.
What do you want?
I just wanted to say goodbye to Director Shen.
See you next time.
Such a bother. If I'd known, I would've have brought some salt
and sprinkled it around to get rid of the rotten luck.
Why did he come to see you?
It was nothing.
He knew I had an opening so he probably just wanted to see this for himself.
Sorry... Today, I...
I know you're really busy.
I originally wanted to change our date,
- but... - Lu Zhun is more important than me.
This had nothing to do with Lu Zhun.
Then, who does it have to do with?
Anyway, whoever else it may be related to,
it's still not related to me.
Are you here now... to laugh at me?
Can you not have this attitude with me?
I appreciate your thought. You've already seen the joke.
Now stop wasting your time.
Qin Ye, how can you speak to Boss like that?
If you ever need anything, let me know.
Wenxi, I'm leaving.
Boss...
Why are you still here? Hurry up and go after her.
Go!
And watch your attitude.
Little Qian, help your sister this one time.
I will double your travel expenses.
That's such a coincidence.
All right, then. We will speak another time.
Xiao Xi...
It's me. I have a friend who opened a fashion design studio.
Right, it's YE. So you've heard.
Can your magazine send some people over here for an interview?
Please, I'm begging you.
Just an interview, it won't take much of your time.
Hello? Hello?
What should we do now?
Coming!
Qin Ye? Why are you here?
Wenxi is honestly... she's really a good girl.
She's done so much for you and is even mindful of your pride.
You must treat her well.
It's impossible between us.
She is probably...
treating me as a good friend.
Good friend?
Do you even believe that?
So for all these years, you've only treated Shen Yien like a good friend?
If a girl had no interest in you,
why would she treat you so well?
Do you really not feel it or are you just pretending not to?
If you aren't interested in her, then don't let her continue to misunderstand.
I suddenly understand
how Yien must've felt around me these past five years.
It's this feeling of... "I really can't love you,
but I don't want to lose you as a friend."
Hoping that this thin veil between us,
will never be opened up.
If that's the case, then you have to keep a distance from Wenxi.
Don't make the same mistake as Yien.
What do you plan on doing moving forward?
I haven't thought it through
about how to face Wenxi when I get back.
Let me stay here for a while.
Okay. Do as you please.
I'll get you a blanket.
Don't drink too much.
Then, why did you pour so much for me?
Just finish that glass.
[Wenxi]
You haven't said a single word.
Don't you think it's time for you to tell me what happened?
Nothing happened.
You were so happy coming out today. I can't let you go home looking sad.
Okay. I'll go ask Qin Ye myself.
Don't be like this. He's in a bad mood.
Today was his first day of opening and not many people went.
It's a bit awkward. Men are mindful of their pride.
No one came... to his opening?
You're not the one to blame for that.
Do I need to go sing him a song?
♪ What kind of man are you?
It's not easy for him to go out there and start his own business.
He is also a well-known fashion designer.
To open in such an atmosphere...
It seems like I must think of a way to help him.
How much longer do you want to help him?
All these years, the fame he's received from the fashion world
was all because of your support.
People eventually need to learn to grow up. You need to learn how to...
let go.
Let's not talk of this anymore. You've didn't eat much today,
Let's go to your home. I'll make something for you.
I'm tired today. I'd like to rest early.
You forgot you once told me I was a great chef?
Don't you want to try it?
Next time.
You're not sleeping yet?
I've been having insomnia the past 2 days.
Then how about I tell you a story. What do you think?
Okay.
Then listen carefully.
Once there was a mountain and on that mountain, there was a temple.
In the temple, there was a vat. In the vat, there was a pot. In the pot, there was a bowl. In the bowl, there was a spoon.
In the spoon, there was a pea. I ate that. I got hungry. My story is done now.
So silly.
How can you sleep when you're hungry?
You only have the energy to sleep after you're full.
Since you can't sleep anyway, I'll take you somewhere.
Why are we here?
- Guess. - So stupid.
What do you think I was going to do? Aren't you tired from being so tense?
Isn't it beautiful?
So beautiful.
When you're troubled, it's best to change your environment and your mood.
The last time that I was able to look at the stars in such a relaxed mood...
I don't even know how long ago that was.
You're stressing yourself out too much.
You could try dating someone.
When you're that free, you can enjoy the stars, enjoy the scenery, and watch some movies.
Wouldn't that be pleasant? Hmm?
I work so busily every day
that as soon as I step out of the building, I want to be completely mute.
When would I be in the mood for all of this?
However, you...
Can't you tell Wei Wei is interested in you?
Do you really want me to get together with Cen Wei?
Wei Wei is a good girl.
I don't deny that.
Listen to me. Wei Wei may normally seem very tough.
Wei Wei is the kind of person who once she starts dating,
she will become passionately infatuated.
She will also completely lose herself.
Is there more?
I'm not joking with you.
You two really are great friends.
Next time, when the two of us are alone together,
don't bring up other girls.
If you're in such a rush to be a matchmaker, why don't you suggest yourself first?
Thank you for your concern.
Vegetarian salad.
When did you buy this?
I made it, okay? And also yogurt.
Thank you.
If you really want to thank me,
eat all of it. Okay?
All right! Once you get inside, don't think about anything else.
Rest well and sleep.
- Thank you. - You don't need to thank me. You have to return the favor.
You saw such beautiful scenery and ate my salad.
Don't you know nothing is for free?
So... treat me to breakfast tomorrow morning. I'll come find you.
That's easily done.
All right. I will treat you to breakfast tomorrow morning. You pick the place.
You agree so easily. Maybe my request was too small.
Okay. Goodnight.
Goodnight.
I've told you many times if there's nothing on, don't come here.
If you get found out, it'll be very problematic.
Lu Zhun, shouldn't you be explaining to me
what you were doing out so late with Shen Yien?
Why do I need to explain that to you?
This is part of the plan. I'm approaching her in order to find out the real truth.
I'm not stupid.
I can tell the difference between what's real and what's fake.
You already know what Shen Yien and Qin Ye did.
There are too many suspicious parts in the event from five years ago.
What other suspicious parts are there? Qin Ye already admitted
that he and Shen Yien had already slept together.
Have you forgotten all about what happened to Ye Qilei?
I haven't forgotten.
This matter doesn't only involve one person, so I must get to the bottom of it.
If you sleep there... you'll catch a cold.
Where did you go last night? I called you and you didn't pick up.
You should go to work; otherwise, you'll be late.
I can't. I made an appointment with a few reporters.
They will post a few influential articles about your YE Studio.
You should stop asking reporters to post articles. You're another CEO's assistant.
You should go back and do your job, okay?
Just leave YE to me.
Qin Ye... what's wrong?
Did I do something... wrong?
Stop worrying about nothing. I need to work on some designs, so I need it to be quiet.
You'll affect my work by being here.
Hurry up and go to work.
Wait a second. Let me grab my bag.
I received a text message.
Nothing.
Five years ago you wanted Shen Yien,
so that's why you killed Ye Qilei. Right?
You thought once you got Shen Yien's body, you could get her love.
Qin Ye, you said one thing right.
- You can't even compare to a dead person. - I didn't.
I do love Shen Yien. However, I won't kill someone in order to have her,
especially since he's like my real brother.
Like your real brother?
He's so like your brother you betrayed Ye Qilei
and slept with Shen Yien, right?
That was an accident.
Hello, Qin Ye.
Go to Teacher Huo's right now. I'll wait for you there.
Director Shen.
It seems like she heard the recording.
I've told you before
not to interfere in my business.
Since you can't see Shen Yien's true nature,
then I'll help you.
If she has nothing to hide, then why did she have such a big reaction?
You two being here today...
is it for personal or work-related issues?
Qin Ye... in front of Teacher Huo today,
I want to ask you something. Five years ago in Marseille,
the day Qilei had his accident, where were you?
Where were you on that day?
We...
What happened between us?
I thought we...
would never mention this matter again.
What does that mean?
You don't remember?
What do you mean by asking "you don't remember"?
Qin Ye, I never thought you were this kind of person.
You said five years ago, I...
Five years ago you and I...
slept together?
That day Teacher Huo and I were clearly discussing business matters.
Teacher Huo, tell him where I was that day.
Yien, regarding Qin Ye, do you have
some misunderstanding?
Your feelings for each other are so moving.
She trusts you. You protect her.
A relationship is really different after having slept together.
You didn't hear me clearly?
Then I'll repeat myself.
Five years ago, that night you and Shen Yien...
This...
Teacher Huo, tell him... where I was that day.
That day... that day the two of us
were at the Palais du Pharo discussing business matters.
Did you hear that? I was at the Palais du Pharo.
That day, I was really together with Yien.
In the middle of it, I received a call
and left for about two hours.
After two hours, Yien was still waiting for me there.
Do you know how serious it is for you to say such nonsense?
But that day, we clearly...
What else do you want to say?
Teacher Huo, I'm sorry.
I have something to do. I need to go.
Why did you lie to Mo Xu?
If you explain yourself clearly right now, I'll definitely forgive you.
Forgive me? Do I need to be forgiven?
Would I not know something I did myself!
If I did something, I wouldn't deny it either!
Today, I finally understand
that I, Qin Ye, mean absolutely nothing to you.
That there's absolutely no point to my existence.
Five years ago, nothing happened between us.
I just had a dream.
Okay?
Please don't ever use this kind of method to humiliate me
or to humiliate yourself.
Ms. Shen, Ye Zi is sleeping.
She's still sleeping? There's nothing wrong, right?
She's fine. She was up late painting last night so she's probably sleeping in.
Do you want to go in?
No. Let her sleep.
Why aren't you asking me
about the recording?
I've told you before
if you want to tell me something, then you'll naturally tell me.
I don't understand why Qin Ye lied.
You're saying... that Qin Ye is the one making stuff up?
I don't know why he told Mo Xu
that five years ago on the day of Qilei's car accident,
that he and I had that kind of relationship.
