You--
I--
Hey, Jia-wei Ji!
Are you all right?
Are you okay?
What?
You think it's funny?
I didn't have to get hurt.
Why did you push me away?
I told you, don't come within 18 inches of me.
You got too close.
I was trying to help you.
- Help me? It's all your fault. - My fault?
Of course, who else?
You thought you were being empathetic,
consoling your client by wearing a wedding ring.
Then what? She tried to kill herself.
Then the two of us--
Hey, it's totally your fault.
It's you. All right?
Otherwise, out of all of your fingers,
why did you end up breaking the ring finger?
Hey! That hurts!
It's divine justice.
I did that because--
I know how difficult it is to heal a broken heart alone.
That's why I try to be empathetic,
and help those whose marriages have failed.
Also, I put on a wedding ring
to avoid women from getting attached to me.
I was trying to make it easier for myself.
Little did I know--
I caused trouble for others.
But I sincerely believe,
if you can help someone walk away from a relationship,
then she can forget the unpleasant past,
and embrace her life anew.
Do you really think making a perfect exit
can really make you forget everything?
This isn't all your fault, actually.
If I hadn't butt in between you and your client,
we wouldn't have seen each other, and you wouldn't have gotten hurt.
If it weren't for you--
Perhaps that day would've ended in tragedy.
Xiao-tong!
There's only two days until the Mr. Popularity event.
Boss asked me and Allen for an update.
So I told her the truth. I'm sorry.
It's fine. I had to face it sooner or later.
Let's go.
Only two days left.
Where are your shoes?
It's a long story. Let's just go.
Is your ankle all right?
I think it's gotten worse.
It's fine. Don't worry.
Let me take that for you.
If you want to find
a pair of nice shoes that can last a long time,
you would need to spend time to look and to try.
If you can't face the fact that you still love her,
it's hard for me to help you find the courage to love again.
Maybe I'm still in love with her.
I still remember her phone number.
But with courage alone, how can you be sure the next relationship
can last a lifetime?
There's only two days until the Mr. Popularity event.
Boss asked me and Allen for an update.
So I told her the truth. I'm sorry.
Have a bite of noodles. May you live to be 100 years old.
Come on. Open up.
Very good.
Eat some ham hock to get rid of bad luck.
Very good. That's it.
Your life starts anew today.
- Better than yesterday. - That's right.
What are you doing? I didn't get out of prison.
It's roughly the same.
It's here. Just step over it.
It's for getting rid of bad luck. Do it.
Just do it.
- Come on. - Hurry up.
- Go on. - Careful.
- You can do it. - Yes.
- Step over it. - Very good.
Xiao-tong Guan, have another bite of ham hock.
- Your ankle will get better. - It's fine.
Boss.
How did it go yesterday?
Is your ankle all right?
It's fine. I'm good.
Xiao-tong, I know you've been working really hard
on this Mr. Popular case.
But you know what?
Our function is basically the same as good luck crystals.
We're here to help people find true love and significant others.
If the color on the crystal fades
and loses its power,
would you still want to wear it?
Boss, I understand. I'll try to convince him again.
You two,
if you have time to play with rituals,
you should spend it on recruiting new members
and be effective good luck crystals.
- Can you do that? Can you? Can you? - Yes.
Very good.
- She said it three times again. - Yeah.
What was she talking about anyway? I don't get it.
You don't get it?
What she's saying is,
if I can't get Mr. Popularity to participate, we'll all be fired!
Why bother with the ham hock?
Nothing good ever comes to you and that guy together.
Do you guys have conflicting vibes?
Not just that.
I think they have repelling vibes for each other.
It's not that bad.
At least this time, it was him who got hurt and not me.
Yes, thankfully.
Otherwise I'd run over there and rip him a new one.
It's a shame he's so cute.
He's only got the looks and no soul.
He's so cold, like a piece of frozen pork chop.
The kind that's buy-one-get-one-free and almost expired.
That's right.
I did that because--
I know how difficult it is to heal a broken heart alone.
That's why I try to be empathetic,
and help those whose marriages have failed.
The thing is, he's not as terrible as you think.
Maybe it's because he's been hurt,
that's why he masks himself with aloofness.
Xiao-tong Guan, how can you defend him when he's been so terrible to you?
What are you thinking?
Don't forget, we only got in trouble with Boss
because of him.
Please pick the right side, all right?
Fine.
My Mr. Popular.
Xiao-tong Guan, Jia-wei Ji owes you a big one.
You helped him solve a huge problem.
We can use this opportunity to ask him to return the favor.
That's right!
You can also treat him with your Dr. Love expertise.
Make this frozen pork chop thaw, lower his guard,
embrace people and give back to society.
It's a good deed.
You--
Come outside with me.
Not you. Her!
Why do you want to see me?
What's this?
This is--
It's Linda.
The client who tried to kill herself.
She feels terribly sorry for causing you so much trouble.
So she asked me to give you this.
Take it.
Wait.
What now?
I just realized I'm not done yet.
I want to emphasize again,
the objects in the box are from Linda.
From Linda, not me.
Open it.
What's this?
It's a gift from me. Might as well, since she got you one.
Might as well.
"Might as well"? Then I might as well open it.
"I say yes."
What are you talking about? Yes to what?
Aren't you a psychologist?
You can figure it out.
Must I say it out loud?
I'm a psychologist, not a mind reader.
How should I know what you mean?
I mean, it's a yes.
I'll do that stupid meet-and-greet.
All right?
Xiao-tong Guan, I say yes.
Me too.
I now pronounce you to be legally married.
You shall never be apart.
Quit messing around.
Xiao-tong Guan,
where did he get the courage to propose to you in front of the office?
Tell me, honestly, what did you do
to warm the heart of this frozen pork chop?
Look.
This is such an old fashioned way to send a love letter.
Which century is he from?
That's not the point.
The point is, he's finally agreed to do it.
Now we can tell Boss, mission accomplished.
Do you guys think we should thank him, too?
Yeah, now I'm reluctantly feeling a little better...
about this frozen pork chop.
By the way, he has one condition.
He says this has to be low-key and confidential.
We finally got this Mr. Popular.
You can't tell anyone.
If anything goes wrong,
you know how terrible it'll be for us.
Don't worry.
I'm on mute mode. The secret is safe with me.
You still haven't booked the venue, right?
I haven't.
But after getting Mr. Popular on board,
everything else is a piece of cake.
I actually found a venue that's pretty suitable for the event.
Already?
Are you Doraemon?
You're so magical!
You've got back-up plans. And you got the venue.
What other magical gadgets do you have?
Eat your food.
Don't try to find her pocket. We didn't find it last time.
All right.
MR. POPULARITY MEET-AND-GREET EVENT PROPOSAL
How come this event's budget is so low?
Did you make a mistake on the budget?
No, the budget is right.
We got a restaurant to sponsor us with the free venue.
Really?
Don't worry, Boss.
This place is beautifully decorated.
It's got great views, too.
Look, the next page has pictures and the floor plan.
This restaurant has fine-dining decoration,
and it is also very artful.
It's delicious and tasteful.
More importantly, it has a great view of Taipei 101.
I'm sure our members will be impressed.
I know this restaurant.
They don't usually advertise.
Its reputation is built by customer recommendation.
I have many friends who love this restaurant.
They think highly of it.
Who's responsible for finding this venue?
Me.
Excellent.
I'm very pleased with this venue.
You have great taste. Very good.
You all did an excellent job this time.
Thank you, Boss.
Xiao-tong, you've finally gotten rid of the nickname, Queen of Back-up Plans.
What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
Keep up the good work.
Yes, Ma'am.
Get to work.
Boss, your all-purpose amulet,
the ring, seems to have turned into a tiny hot dog.
I don't think it works anymore.
Boss, what I mean is,
with the increase of clients,
what happened with Linda could happen again.
Shouldn't we talk about what to do in case it happens again?
The thing is,
what you need the most right now is not pity.
You need to learn how to love yourself.
Never be with someone who's not right for you.
You're right.
What happened with Linda gave me a new idea.
It's not enough to offer sincere and friendly company
to care for people who have lost their marriage and relationship.
I think it's missing something.
Not just something.
It's missing a great deal.
Boss, although our firm
caters to both men and women,
our clients are still mostly women.
However, our staff is mostly male.
The only female staff is a young woman without much dating experience.
So?
So I think we should hire Xiao-tong Guan as our consultant.
She-- I mean,
she's Dr. Love, right?
She can supplement our company, both in gender balance and expertise.
Boss, don't think of our two companies as enemies.
If they get more people to get married,
more people will get divorced in the future.
Enough. You're too off topic.
Go.
If you don't listen to the wise, it's your own loss.
MUST-ATTEND MEET-AND-GREET
Line them up.
- Straight lines. - Xin-xin Xia.
Where does this go?
Here. In the middle.
- Here's good. - Stop. Too much.
To the left. Too much.
- What-- - To the right. Stop.
- In front of the bar here. - Yes.
- So how many chairs. - More to the front.
- 18 chairs. - Then I need two more.
- Okay. - Thanks.
Xin-xin Xia, he's the one you guys said will get to 4G in one go,
the so-called 4G "oven-roasted steak"?
Yep, that's him.
Sweet and considerate "oven-roasted steak."
Hot!
Sound system, check.
Life-size cutout, check.
Everything outdoors, check.
Thank you so much for today.
Your boss is so kind to lend us this space,
even though it's so last minute.
And he didn't charge us anything.
Thank you so much for your help.
Don't mention it.
You're a very well-known company, too.
It's our pleasure to host your event here.
In addition to promoting our restaurant,
I think this is also a mutually beneficial collaboration.
I guess so.
So don't thank me.
I should take you out to dinner and thank you someday.
- It's fine. Don't worry about it. - Hi, friend.
Hi.
Thanks for your hard work.
I should get back to the restaurant.
- Sure. - Thank you.
- Thanks. - Bye-bye.
- Xin-xin Xia, you're too much. - Xiao-tong Guan, come.
What? Where are we going?
What is it?
- I want to show you something. - What?
What is your photo doing here?
That looks so much like you. It is you!
I told you so! He must be into you.
Why else would he put your photo out here on display?
You have a crazy imagination.
Look. Put up your hair. That looks like you, too.
Don't be silly.
The venue's not set up yet.
Get back to work.
- Do I look like the photo? - Not at all.
You said so earlier!
It's so late. Where is Jia-wei Ji?
Being alone is not my style. I want romance for two.
I like traveling and camping.
I like the you who's into me.
Where did Xi-men come up with this nonsense?
Happy birthday!
Xi-men, get the stuff ready.
Hi.
Boss, happy birthday!
Adorable.
Polo, come.
We have birthday cake!
Hey! What are you guys doing here?
Boss, have you forgotten?
Your birthday is a national holiday for us.
We must come here and celebrate.
We just have an extra person this year.
Who are you calling an extra?
As a faithful, loyal subordinate,
the boss's birthday should be remembered and celebrated.
Is that so wrong?
- Happy birthday. - Thank you.
I totally forgot it's my birthday today.
You don't have to do this.
It's too much trouble.
It's no trouble at all, Boss.
I can't pass up any opportunity to get wasted.
Let's drink.
I waited for a month for this champagne to get here from Canada.
Come on.
MURPHY'S LAW NUMBER SIX:
IF EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE GOING WELL
THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG
Why isn't he picking up?
This event can't happen without him.
- Is he coming or not? - I'm so sorry.
Did you find him?
I can't hold the floor anymore.
Please stay calm.
Mr. Popular should be here soon.
We will start as soon as he gets here.
If you can't find him,
not only will Boss be mad at us,
we'll have to face those angry women too.
If he doesn't get here soon, we'll leave.
One, two, three, happy bir--
Wait.
- Something's off. - What?
Jia-wei, where are you going in that dashing suit of yours?
Oh yeah, Boss. You got all dressed up.
Just to welcome us?
Of course not.
I mean, later.
I made plans with a friend.
Yeah, right!
You're always sulking and alone on your birthday.
I've got it!
Have you planned something special this year? Tell us!
Weren't you wishing me happy birthday?
Wish me happy birthday, then.
To good health and happiness for everyone.
That was fast.
Is there a cake? Candles?
Gifts? Let's just do everything at once.
Let's drink.
Happy birthday.
Make yourselves at home. Have fun.
Today's Boss's birthday. Let's have fun.
We'll drink until daybreak.
Let's!
Let me see if there's food in the fridge.
Drink.
This champagne is good, right?
- Happy birthday. - Xi-men!
Where is that frozen pork chop?
Is that frozen pork chop trying to get us hacked to pieces and buried alive?
Doesn't he know our boss is homicidal?
Boss.
Hello, Boss?
What are you guys doing?
I hear the event hasn't even started.
What's going on?
Boss, there is a slight problem right now,
but we're already trying our best to solve it.
You better start the event right this minute.
Get to work.
Yes, Boss.
Did you hear that? She said it three times.
Because it's important.
- We're really doomed this time. - Yeah.
Where is that Mr. Popular?
I have no idea where Mr. Popular is.
I think we have to cancel the event.
Cancel?
What should we do?
What now?
Ladies,
sorry to have kept you waiting,
but it seems that Mr. Popular can't make it today.
What? He can't make it?
We waited for such a long time.
Why didn't you tell us?
What the heck? We waited forever for him.
Sorry.
I'm really sorry.
What a waste of time.
Let's just go home.
An apology can't solve anything.
That's right. What in the world?
I thought he would be here.
Ladies, the reason why Mr. Popular can't be on time today
is because before he gets here,
we have prepared an extra activity for you.
We are offering you an opportunity to make your own special gift
for Mr. Popular.
Why does chocolate come to mind
when people think of love?
It's because chocolate triggers
a chemical in our brain
that makes us feel like we're in love.
So today we have a chocolate DIY session.
You can let Mr. Popular know how you feel about him.
Jia-wei, you should just relax
and enjoy the surprise birthday party.
Here.
It's your birthday. Drink up.
I got this champagne for you. Drink up.
Happy birthday.
The main show is coming.
Ready?
Come on!
Can you do it?
Come on.
All right.
Turn off the lights.
Jia-wei?
Where are you, Jia-wei? Quit messing around.
MISSED CALLS
Who is that?
That's an ill-boding name, Dr. Loser.
So many missed calls.
Does he owe someone money?
First, we cut the chocolate into pieces.
Then we put the chocolate into a pot.
Use the candle to melt the chocolate.
As you stir, remember to add a special ingredient,
the love you're sending to Mr. Popular.
Where's my cell phone?
No.
I don't even have my wallet?
Never mind.
He's really good.
He's holding the floor all by himself.
All eyes are on him.
He's amazing.
The chocolate you just made is ready.
Isn't it beautiful?
We will give you a beautiful box.
You can place your chocolate inside.
DIY chocolate session is almost done.
Where is that frozen pork chop?
Is that frozen pork chop trying to get us hacked to pieces and buried alive?
Doesn't he know our boss is homicidal?
- We're really doomed this time. - Yeah.
Where is that Mr. Popular?
I have no idea where Mr. Popular is.
I think we have to cancel the event.
All right, I know you guys can't do it.
I'll tell Boss.
Xiao-tong.
Make Jia-wei Ji appear right now!
Xiao-tong Guan.
What took you so long?
That's for later.
Is the event over?
Tie a blue ribbon.
- This way. - And it's ready for your Mr. Popular.
Are you all ready
to give your gifts to Mr. Popular?
Let's put your hands together
and welcome Mr. Popular!
Thank you for being willing to wait for me.
I'm so sorry to keep you waiting.
But since I promised to be here...
I am a man of my word.
I hope you all have a lovely,
pleasant evening.
It's good to meet you. Thanks.
The birthday boy is gone!
What a waste of champagne.
Never mind, we'll celebrate for him.
Come on.
Jia-wei, why didn't you shut the door?
Mr. Ji.
How come it's you guys?
Where's my son?
It's your chocolate.
Did you meet anyone you like today?
You really think I'm here to find a girlfriend?
Why else would you come?
I don't like owing anyone anything.
I don't want to owe you a favor
for the incident with Linda.
Anyway.
Why would you give me something that only girls like?
Don't be mean.
Where do you think the chocolate came from?
It's because you were late. Our members made the chocolate by hand.
It's from them.
You have to accept it, no matter what.
