I think it's about to rain. Wait for me here. I'll just get the car.
I told you, I don't need a ride home.
What's wrong?
Actually, I didn't like what you did today at all.
What do you mean?
Do you know how much time all of us spent on this project?
We made so many changes to it,
spent many hours late at night on the details
so our participants would find their true love through this event.
I know that.
I know you worked really hard.
But you bought all the spots.
It's as if you're telling us
that everything we did for this project was pointless.
Isn't charity the goal of auctions? It doesn't matter who buys them.
I bought them all so you would meet your sales quota.
More importantly, I did it so you could rest.
You didn't even think twice in buying out our efforts.
It makes me feel like you don't value my work.
I couldn't even see the result of all the hard work I put into it.
Why would you think that? I never meant for you to feel that way.
I know that wasn't your intention,
but the fact that you did it just means you don't know me well enough.
What do you mean?
I know you want to be a good partner to me, to protect me.
But what you did today
isn't what I wanted at all.
Well...
You should've told me.
And that's why I'm telling you how I feel about it now.
I've been very understanding of you.
However, after a while,
I realize it's making me unhappy as time goes by.
The distance between us
seems to be getting bigger.
I think...
that it's good we are able to talk about the problems in our relationship.
We can solve these problems together.
I don't get it. What's the matter?
I'm sorry for neglecting you and for hurting your feelings.
But when I'm being nice to you, you're telling me
this isn't what you want?
Xiao-tong Guan,
what do you want me to do?
This just proves we're really from different worlds.
No.
This proves you haven't been honest with me.
You think I don't know you're keeping something from me?
I care a great deal, but I don't push you
because I don't want you to feel pressured.
I'm also trying to be understanding.
Why can't you see that?
You're always like this,
keeping everything all bottled up.
When you do this,
you make me feel like I don't mean anything to you.
I've been doing everything to shorten the distance between us,
but I feel like you're pushing me away.
It turns out we've both been trying to accommodate each other.
That's not what I mean.
I just want you to believe in me.
The fireworks reminded me of myself from a year ago.
I realized I haven't grown at all.
In life and in relationships, I'm still at a total loss.
Even after a year, I'm still making the same mistakes.
What mistakes?
When I fall in love with someone, I give my all in the relationship.
In the end, I see nothing but the other person.
I lose myself.
Because I love you, I can't help but be influenced by you.
I can't help but center my whole life around you.
I can't even bring myself to just be myself when I'm around you.
Xiao-tong Guan...
I truly love you.
Is there anything I can do that would be right for you?
We should stop seeing each other.
Xiao-tong, you're back?
Are you hungry? I can make you some noodles.
Why are you drenched?
What's the matter?
Change out of your clothes. Take a hot bath.
I'll make you a cup of ginger tea.
Xiao-tong? What's wrong, Xiao-tong?
Did something happen at work? Did you have a fight with someone?
Mom, I broke up with Jia-wei Ji.
Hello?
Mr. Ji, this is the pet shop.
What's wrong?
We're about to close, but no one has come to pick Polo up.
I've been trying to call Ms. Guan but she isn't picking up.
I'm sorry but this is a hectic week for Ms. Guan.
She won't be coming today. I'll just pick him up later.
All right. Thank you.
Will you be picking Polo up from now on?
No. Next week...
Next week, Miss Guan will pick Polo up.
Thank you.
Everything's all right.
Xiao-tong Guan is probably just upset now.
It will be fine once she gets over it.
Everything will be okay.
Who is this Jia-wei Ji anyway?
He bought all the vouchers just to make Xiao-tong happy.
He's smart and decisive.
You can't possibly imagine how deep his pocket is.
Now let's drop that
and talk about the employees of our two companies instead.
The men are handsome and the women beautiful.
They're as attractive as any of our members.
If we post their photos on our website,
we will definitely have an increase in members.
Does that mean our bonus will also increase accordingly?
What are you guys talking about?
- Xiao-tong. - Xiao-tong.
The reason Zi-Yan Xiang isn't your boyfriend has finally dawned on me.
If I was a girl, I'd choose Jia-wei Ji too.
Wait, Xiao-tong Guan. Where's the bracelet he gave you?
Did you get something more valuable?
I know! A diamond ring!
He proposed to you last night, didn't he? Tell me.
Is the boss here? I have to talk to her.
She came in early.
Boss, my resignation letter.
I've already thought things through.
If you don't mind, I'll be staying until the end of the month.
I will make sure to make a proper turnover before I leave.
Why are you resigning again? Didn't we already agree last time?
You're needed in this collaboration with FooShion. And now you're quitting.
- What do you think we--? - I'm sorry.
I know it's a bit irresponsible, but--
If you do, then shred this letter right now.
Go back to your seat and work.
But...
I'm really not fit to be Dr. Love.
I realize that in my current state of mind,
I can't possibly give our members any sound advice on love.
Whether you're fit or not is for me to decide.
What are you guys doing?
- This is serious. - Xiao-tong is talking to the old lady.
- The old lady? - That's right.
If you've already set a plan for your future, I'd allow you to quit.
However, you still look like you're at a loss in life.
I don't think quitting now is the right decision for you.
I won't accept your resignation.
Go home and take the day off.
Sort your problems out,
whether they be about work or your love life.
Tomorrow, you must find and return our Dr. Love to us, is that clear?
What are you doing here?
I thought you were in Shanghai for business.
He's been there for days.
If he stayed any longer, his mother would protest.
Mommy, you exaggerate.
"Mommy"?
But boss is so young. How could you be her son?
That's because I work hard to look like this.
But that's not the point.
Zi-yan, you're just in time.
Xiao-tong wants to quit. Talk to her for me.
Mommy, you know Xiao-tong better than I do.
She's not an irresponsible person.
Can I talk to her?
- Boss, thank you. - Don't thank me. Thank Zi-yan.
I was so shocked. I didn't know Boss was your mother.
I asked her to keep it a secret.
I didn't want you to feel pressured being my friend
all because my mom's your boss.
I'm sorry for keeping it from you.
That's all right. I understand.
So you've made up your mind?
Does it have anything to do with you and Jia-wei Ji?
I can't say it doesn't have anything to do with it.
So many things have happened recently.
I realized how I turn into someone else when I'm with him.
Someone Xiao-tong Guan doesn't know.
So I want to take some time off
to contemplate on my work, my future and my love life.
It's good to want change in your life. I support you on that.
I'll talk to my mom for you.
Thank you so much for helping me out.
That's what friends do.
Over the past year, while our cases have grown in number,
our profit margin has gone down.
The root of the problem lies in high business expenses.
That's the main issue here.
Refrain from unnecessary spending.
Don't write everything off as a business expense, all right?
My goodness! Xiao-tong and Jia-wei seem to have broken up!
Xiao-tong's not wearing the bracelet he gave her.
Do you know about this?
What's wrong?
Raise your hand if you want to speak. Don't just stand up.
All right. Let me think.
Also, the accountant sent back a lot of receipts,
many of which can't be written off.
Since your workload has increased, I'll help out.
Any questions?
Boss, I don't need for you to help out.
- You should take it easy after work. - I'm fine.
I don't believe you. You usually have the most problems.
Never mind. Forget it. And you, Shao-qiang?
I'm fine too. Jia-wei, working hard is good.
But if you want to use work as a distraction,
it won't do your health or work any good.
What are you talking about?
You told me we have more clients now. You can't cover all of them.
What about you, An-ting?
Boss, you never had to worry about me, right?
Then why are we having this meeting today?
If everything's fine with you guys, then I'm the one with a problem?
Never mind.
If there's nothing else, meeting adjourned.
Boss, I don't think you should work on the shopping project.
I have tickets to the Weeping Cinema.
Why don't you go and unwind after work?
That's a good idea. An-ting will go with you.
Me?
Okay, fine.
Let me say this, though. This counts as work internship.
What are you talking about? Why would I go to the Weeping Cinema?
Boss, rule number 4 in self-healing after getting dumped is,
don't be afraid to tell people about your situation.
Avoiding the problem won't solve it.
- Seeking help is not a sign of weakness. - Stop it!
You guys.
Did I say anything about getting dumped? Mind your own business.
If there's nothing special going on today, you may all go home.
What should we do?
You're here.
Yes.
Let me tell you now.
You can't leave me without my permission.
Come sit beside me.
Last time we were here,
you leaned on my shoulder.
Today, let me lean on you.
I don't think I ever asked you
the reason why you told me all about your problems
in the Dr. Love blog
when we didn't know each other well enough then.
Because...
you make me feel like I can tell you the truth without having to worry.
Slowly, you made me lower my guard and begin to trust you.
But lately, I've come to realize that I no longer have the confidence
to be a good psychologist on relationships.
Of course you're a good psychologist.
So many people believe in love again, thanks to you,
and that includes me.
So you believe me 100 percent?
Of course.
So that means you'll also trust my advice on the relationship problems
between Jia-wei Ji and Xiao-tong Guan.
It's normal for couples to have problems.
We can solve them together.
Over the past few days, I have managed to calm down and do a lot of thinking.
I finally saw that the problems we had in our relationship
were never truly solved.
It's always been like that.
Whether it's Zhi-yu or Mama Ji,
whenever you get upset,
out of habit,
you hide and deal with it on your own.
No matter how panicked or upset I was,
whenever I saw you,
I couldn't bring myself to ask about it.
When you realized you hurt me by accident,
you hurriedly tried to make it up to me.
Whenever you'd move me by your kind gestures,
I'd forgive you right away.
It's a vicious cycle that keeps repeating itself.
I know there are many wounds in your heart.
I'm worried you could get hurt again even before your wounds have healed.
That's why I've always been very careful around you.
However, after so many things that have happened,
I started to see
that, perhaps,
what you need is a psychologist on relationships,
not Xiao-tong Guan.
Everything I did for you,
I did because I thought it was what was best for you.
I may have not paid heed to your feelings
but believe me,
I will change all that. All right?
Don't change yourself too much for love's sake.
This is the biggest lesson I learned
from my past failed relationships.
How can you say these things so calmly?
You just said so yourself, you believe in my expertise.
So, based on my analysis,
if we continue to stay together,
we will only run into more problems.
Simply put...
what I'm trying to say
is I can't be with you anymore.
I already told you...
This hand
is one I will never let go of.
Jia-wei Ji,
despite the curse Murphy's Law brings, we still met,
even if we both
can't stay together anymore.
But at least while it lasted,
I was truly happy and pleased.
I consider myself very lucky.
So...
between just the two of us,
right here, right now,
we should bid each other a proper goodbye.
Why are you saying this?
I haven't agreed to anything.
You told me
that it's important to end things on good terms.
So please give me a smile.
You're a psychologist.
You should know that crying is the best way to release pent-up frustration.
So...
Go ahead and cry if you want to. I won't make fun of you.
It's cold in the cinema. Don't blame me if you catch a cold.
MURPHY'S LAW NUMBER 11:
EVEN IF YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER,
THERE IS STILL A GOOD REASON FOR NOT BEING TOGETHER.
DR. MY LOVE
