Who?!
We're almost there.
What happened?
Zhengzheng passed the interview for the design project. We drank quite a bit to celebrate.
Old Tan, I didn't embarrass you.
Send her to her room. I can't understand what she's saying.
I didn't embarrass you.
Your alcohol tolerance is so bad. Nothing like me.
Shao Lin, once you've taken her to the room, come out quickly.
Okay.
Uncle. Zhengzheng slept. I'm leaving now.
What do you mean you're leaving. I found a glass for you.
Here. Drink some with me.
I...
What? What I say is no use to you?
It is.
Still hesitating? Punish yourself with a drink.
Pour it yourself.
I'll pour some for you.
Here. Fill it up.
Still hesitating. I ask you to share a drink and you're still hesitating.
Do you think you and Zhengzheng suit one another?
No...not suitable.
You do. Suit one another very well.
You and her are like a turtle who sees a mung bean. She's the mung bean.
You're that... (T/N: 'turtle' can also mean a pimp/being cheated on/bastard)
No, no...that's not right.
How do I say this? Zhengzheng
has a heart with high ambitions, but a destiny that is ordinary.
She wants everything. But...
But I can't give her anything.
This...doesn't that mean it falls to you?
Tell me. Who's to blame for that?
Blame me.
Back at that time, her mother came down with acute pneumonia.
I couldn't keep her here.
That left Zhengzheng suffering without a mother ever since she was young.
Me? I was a children's book editor. I didn't have any special skills.
Not like that person who started a company, started a factory.
They have discussions in English with foreigners.
Long sleeves help you in anything. (T/N: Money and power helps you in any occupation)
I really don't have anything to offer.
It's like she says.
She says, "You can only mess around in the kitchen."
- Just be a low level children's book editor. - Not true.
Uncle, I think what you do is really good.
What good is that? What good is that?
From beginning to end, we can't measure up to them.
From Zhengzheng's perspective, she loves competing with Sheng Xia.
Speaking of genes...even though my girl's genes aren't bad; they aren't like theirs.
Speaking of family income,
this house is theirs; plus they have a factory. We can't compete.
Speaking of EQ and IQ, we can't compare with them either.
Zhengzheng? She's like me.
She can't compete with them in anything.
Here.
Uncle, but I think what you said isn't correct.
Zhengzheng isn't so inferior.
How am I wrong?
Tell me. If Zhengzheng is Ms. Perfect, (T/N: fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful)
would she still have fallen for you?
You can say that about me. But not about Zhengzheng.
She truly is outstanding.
She's kind, adorable, ambitious, has character.
I don't need for her to compare herself with others.
I just want her to be herself. I like her as herself.
Fine. You don't understand.
Uncle, what era are we in?
Quit being concerned about whether her genes are good or not.
And don't worry about whether she has a good family background or whether she has money or not.
Even if she isn't as good as that family, you can't be ashamed.
You...no matter if it's being a yourself or dating,
you should advance forward, if you want to pursue someone, do it.
Who knows what the result will be? Don't you think so?
You don't have to discuss whether or not you'll succeed or not,
the most important thing is that try.
I think if you don't want to lose is just three words: you can't cower.
You're so right.
Right.
You can't cower. Your uncle here...shouldn't cower either.
Here, let's drink. I'll pour.
Still drinking?
You can't cower.
Here.
You can't cower.
- One more. - Huh? - You can't cower.
Alright, alright.
Young man, I never dreamed you could say what you've said today.
This is our reception.
Hello.
And here
is our bar.
You can have a cup of coffee when you have your break.
Come. I'll show you more.
So, and this is our show room.
You can see a lot of beautiful dresses here.
And that one is our workshop.
Okay. Is that the meeting room?
And this is our chief designer, Coco.
Could you tell me he's thinking?
But be careful. She's very special.
Are you serious?
I'm going to show you your desk upstairs.
- I'm going to show you upstairs. Your desk is over there. - Okay.
And this is our showroom.
And this...is our workshop.
Is this the dressing room?
Yeah. Exactly.
And here is our working shop.
Hey Donald.
Ivy, your success rate is getting higher and higher.
Thank you.
By the way, what about that old lady who fell?
Anna?
Yes, the Anna who fell down on the Shengda construction site?
Has her case been settled?
Yes. We won.
Did Anna and her lawyer say anything else?
Rest assured Donald.
Xu Tian and Anna are just some nobodies from the slum.
They won't know anything.
Good.
Who asked you to come over here now?
When should I come then?
Do you see it? It was raining that much that night.
Do you remember? And it was at night that day.
Do you remember?
I remember. I remember.
What do you remember?
Every time it rains, I always think of this song.
At the bottom of our hearts, there's always someone who's worth treasuring.
They don't haggle over affections, gains and losses.
And don't care whether the other person loves them or not.
In order to bring smiles and happiness into their world.
We will use all the energy we have.
- Hi. - Hi.
I'm Sheng Xia.
Hello. I'm Luzano. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
How do you feel on your first day of work?
It's okay.
Did you meet Stephen?
Not yet.
The video you sent me this morning, what's that for?
I left you a note in the envelope. You didn't see it?
I think this video is going to help Anna's case. Take a look.
[Video 00:23 Water pipe on the ground of the construction site]
It was raining that much that night. Do you remember?
Sheng Xia, deliver these five documents and the gifts to those five places.
Be back before 3:00 o'clock. There are other things that need to be delivered to three other places.
- Hurry up! Stop dawdling! - Okay.
Thank you.
Good luck.
Xiaoduo, you suddenly said you wanted to have a date with me. You're probably just lonely.
Not for real, right?
They already became a pair, does that mean we can't date?
But... the person I like isn't you.
I know you like Salina.
But Salina likes Xu Tian. They already announced it yesterday.
Why are you still not willing to give up?
Then there's Kaven and Sheng Xia, they've been through so many things.
They finally reconciled. Everyone's doing well.
But Xu Tian likes Sheng Xia.
No. Kaven and Sheng Xia are most suited for each other.
Kaven is a perfect boyfriend and will be Sheng Xia's perfect husband in the future.
I'm guessing...the perfect significant other...you like
is like Shen Kai's type.
That's nonsense. You like Salina yourself. You're too scared to chase after her but you make up things about others.
If you like her, then you need to try hard.
Do you think Xu Tian and Salina and Kaven and Sheng Xia,
will they really get married?
Do you want them to get married?
Salina and Xu Tian was in a fight the whole night.
She really likes Xu Tian.
Can you be more manly? If you like Salina, then tell her.
Here. Cheers.
Cheers.
After we're done eating and drinking, why don't we go...
How about going to the movies?
Okay.
Then it's settled.
Third Uncle, what's wrong?
It's you, you jerk.
Here. Sit.
You sit. Let me tell you.
Your legs are fine?
My legs...
was found out by your Auntie Lan.
What you're saying is your legs actually recovered a while ago,
but you wanted to keep Auntie Lan at home so she wouldn't go out to buy egg tarts.
So you kept on pretending that your leg wasn't better?
In the end, she found out.
The issue is... she found out, but she hasn't said anything.
She's the same as before.
Every now and then, she would go and hang around where that Yun Fei is.
When she came back, she would do acupuncture needling on me. And she's more ruthless than before in doing that.
The older the ginger, the spicier it gets.
In a battle of wits, I'm no match for her.
Then have a showdown.
What's the use?
That old Yun Fei, I wish I could rip him up!
You're being unreasonable. He's just watching her from across the street.
He didn't even say a word. What makes you think you could rip him up?!
That's right! Nothing you can say or complain about.
You tell me, eating an egg tart for over ten years.
I'm...like a dumb man suffering in silence.
Don't laugh. I asked you to come here today to help me come up with an idea.
Okay.
Do you have a way to stop them once and for all?
Third Uncle, let me ask you a question.
Since Auntie Lan still likes Uncle Yun,
then why did she marry you?
What nonsense. How could she still like him? It's because Yun Fei still hasn't gotten married yet,
so she feels like... she owes him.
If she goes and hangs around every now and then, wouldn't it make it more difficult for him to let go?
Yes, yes. You're absolutely right, but she doesn't think that way.
As long as Yun Fei doesn't get married,
then Auntie Lan will never feel at ease.
Get married? Who would be willing to marry him?
That's right. Think of an idea.
Anna likes him.
Your landlord?
I thought of a way to kill two birds with one stone,
an idea that would let me go rent-free.
I knew it was right to come to you.
You must handle this well.
- Just this? - Yes, just this.
Okay.
Auntie Lan is back.
I'm leaving, Third Uncle.
This jerk.
- You're so funny. - Thanks.
- I really think you'll like it. - Yeah, it's so good.
Let's go.
For 2, please.
Thank you.
Buy tickets. Buy tickets.
Tickets for 2, please.
It's quite good, La La Land.
I also like musicals.
What are we going to do now?
Let's go eat.
Okay.
Then what should we eat?
Steak.
Steak? Okay.
My car is over there.
Okay.
- Xiaoduo– - Hank.
You have something to say as well?
Then you first.
I think we... should just be friends.
Actually, that's what I was thinking as well.
I think... you'll definitely find someone who will treat you well and who you will love.
Same with you.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Hank, where are you?
I'm going to work.
- Hurry back. - What's wrong? What happened?
Xu Tian is going to sleep on the streets. Hurry back and supervise him.
Sleep on the streets?
Now? It's about to rain.
Yes. Right now.
Okay, I'll come back immediately.
Wait for me for 10 minutes.
Where are you going?
Can't you tell?
This is where he first met Sheng Xia.
The fourth time.
What?
Did I say that aloud?
Anyone could hear it.
This is the fourth time you leaned on my shoulder.
The first time was when you first moved in. We drank with Xu Tian.
You drank too much and fell asleep while leaning on my shoulder.
That night,
I only drank 1 beer because I was scared that I would wake you up.
The second time was when you had a break up.
We went to the movies and you leaned on my shoulder like this.
You got half my sleeve wet with your tears.
The third time was when we cooked together.
You got flour all over your face. You scraped it back and forth on my shoulder.
Hank. Could it be that you like me?
What? Your face is red.
You really are such an innocent in love.
You must think I'm stupid and won't like someone like me, right?
Who said that? It's rare to find a man like you nowadays.
Even that brat, Xu Tian.
He's changed from that innocent young man back then into the cold brat that he is now.
Hank. Do you dare to kiss me?
Why are you looking at him?
I'm asking you. Do you dare kiss me?
♫ The leaves on the trees and sun in the breeze will dance with me ♫
♫ When you came along with the stars falling down surrounding me ♫
Drive.
♫ That is so fascinating. ♫
♫ Hard for me to imagine ♫
♫ To put in a word I guess it's fortune ♫
How does it feel trying to show off?
How does it feel to kiss a woman?
I know. She did it just to make you mad.
You are from a wealthy family, an international police officer,
why don't you have any confidence?
Mind your own business. The way you behaved that day...
If you get sick, Salina will be worried.
Relax.
I will give you guys enough space.
Tomorrow evening, I will be punctual to sleep on that soft and mobile mattress on that street.
I'd rather you stay here in this warm home with me
and play games.
Drink more water.
What's wrong now?
Are you planning to continue this cold war with her?
Can you two not fight? Go back to how it was before.
Why are you so long-winded?
Isn't it normal that me and Salina get into fights?
It will be fine after a couple days. Don't be so worried.
You and Salina will be fine after a couple of days.
What about Sheng Xia?
That day it looked like she wanted to tell you something.
But you wouldn't listen.
It's not important what she wants to say.
The important thing is that she already made a decision.
You don't want to hear what she has to say?
It might let you feel a little bit better,
or you can tell her you can't forget her.
Some things
if you don't make them clear, you can still be friends.
If you clear it up, then there's not even the chance to still be friends.
In the future, what kind of excuses can I still find
to send her a message, set a time to meet up?
Since she already made her choice,
I just hope she made the correct choice.
The person she met is the right one.
Then... you guys will be like this from now on?
[Starting from zero to Study] [Financial Management]
[Start Reading From Scratch] [Investment Finance]
Why isn't this the same as that one?
Different professions are really worlds apart. Trying to learn a new profession now really won't work.
I'm cowering.
I can't cower. I don't believe that I can't make sense of this. Come on, I must continue.
I know.
You think that at the company, I'm your girlfriend.
If you help me speak up, it will be embarrassing for you. Isn't that right?
I didn't!
You did!
You don't want to tell your colleagues. But for this project,
even if I'm your girlfriend, I still have to do as you say because you're the leader.
Enough. How can you think like that?
If she makes a mistake, fine. Can't we leave that behind us?
Why are you screaming?
I'm not the one at fault. Why are you yelling at me?
- Why are you yelling at me? - I...
I get it.
Do you like her?
Impossible.
Speak up. When did this start?
I swear to the heavens I could never like her. I don't.
I told you before that you shouldn't work with your girlfriend.
- Shut up. - Shut up.
I'm leaving.
Hey, you come here. Help me explain this.
You come here. You still haven't explained this clearly to me. Is there something between you two?
- There's no way there's something between us. - That's right.
There's nothing between you two.
There's no way there's nothing between us.
So there is something. Since when?
Where did you get such an idea?
I don't believe you. You're lying to me!
Then show me the evidence that you don't have something going on with her.
There's really nothing; you can believe it or not.
How can you be like this?!
I can't take it anymore!
Hello, may I help you?
I'm looking for Ivy.
Okay, follow me, sir.
We meet again.
Take a look.
You were born in the year of the monkey, a scorpio.
You're a bachelor. I'm a bachelorette.
Yun Fei, are you even listening?
I know it's hard to start learning English now,
but you can't be afraid.
We can actually learn from each other.
Come on. You can say it with me. Read with me.
You were born in the year of the monkey, a scorpio.
You're a bachelor. I'm a bachelorette.
Hello?!
Do you even want to learn English?
Enough of this.
- You want to learn a language, right? - I don't know what you're saying.
Wait here.
This... China.
Chinese characters. Learn all of this first.
Then we'll study English.
I have no idea what you just said.
What is this?
Are you stupid?
You can't understand, right?
Chinese characters.
Oh, it's a dictionary. It's a lot of words.
Do you see it? It was raining that much that night.
Do you remember? And it was at night that day.
What do you think?
You want me to watch a video of you and your defendant playing with water?
This is your surprise?
Look at this.
This is the real reason why Anna fell.
A very interesting inference.
This isn't an inference. It's the truth.
This video was shot seven days after Anna fell.
And the pictures with me were taken yesterday.
From the pictures, you can see the sewage pipes were already covered.
If I bring this video and these photos to court,
you will not only need to pay compensation,
you'll also have to face charges of tampering with evidence.
- So? - So settle with Anna.
Give her her compensation. Otherwise, I will file for an appeal.
I also hope that there won't be any little stain on your career's reputation.
Are you threatening me?
Look, Xu Tian. I have to deal with a lot of cases every day.
Every one is bigger than this one. I only sleep five hours every night.
However, as before, I don't mind meeting you again in court.
Do you want to know why?
Because I understand people like you.
In the eyes of people like you, there is only the compensation money.
Then I'll see you in court.
Hey Donald.
I heard that Anna's lawyer just went to find you.
Yeah.
What does he want?
Xu Tian has a video of the sewage pipe and he is planning on making an appeal.
I understand.
Send me his address and draw a compensation agreement
and give him a settlement for 20% more than what Anna asked.
But–
Xiaoduo.
I ordered your favorite coffee.
Why did you suddenly want to meet up around my company?
Didn't you say that you have a meeting in 20 minutes?
How was your date with Hank?
To be honest, I was just deceiving myself.
The two of us felt very uncomfortable.
I plan on going back to China.
Going back to China?
I think that this is better for you and Sheng Xia.
What about you?
Me?
I... It doesn't matter how I am.
Have you thought it through, Xiaoduo?
I really don't have the dignity to stay here any longer.
Don't say that. You saying that is like someone is stabbing me with a needle.
Kaven, I have told you before.
Everything happened with mutual consent.
You must treat Sheng Xia well.
You two are my only family here.
No matter where I am in the future, I will definitely wish you both the best.
As long as you guys are happy,
everything I did will be worth it.
If nothing else, then I'm leaving.
♫ It naturally became a habit ♫
♫ Falling in love looks easy ♫
♫ yet it is difficult for both of us ♫
- Xu Tian. - Anna.
Are you serious?
- Are we really going to win? - Yes.
All the evidence I found will for sure get your compensation.
Here. Sign this first.
What's the evidence?
I'll tell you about it later.
- Just wait for my good news. - Okay.
[Wash & Fold Self-Service]
Mr. Donald.
Nice to meet you.
You know me?
Who wouldn't? You're one of the best lawyers in the city.
Doland's law firm is one of the top firms in central avenue.
I've also read one of your books in college.
I know all of your earlier cases very well.
I think of you as my idol.
I'm honored to be idolized by such a... proud person.
Do I seem proud to you?
Otherwise, after losing Anna's case,
you wouldn't continue searching for evidence everywhere to overturn the verdict, would you?
When I was young, I took every loss as a judgment against myself.
Now I don't do that because I know that the real victory
is not determined by winning a lawsuit.
You couldn't have come all the way just to lecture me, am I right?
This is an agreement that I had Ivy draft.
We will pay the compensation that Anna asked for.
[Donald's Law Firm] [Settlement Agreement]
You sure are a big law firm here.
Since you have no objection, then the matter is settled.
I'll have Ivy stop by and discuss the details.
Although to you, I may seem like a nobody.
But I'm going to settle this affair in court myself.
And also receive my compensation.
In that case, all I can say is...more's the pity.
Pride? Actually, it's also a sort of test of oneself.
Because you don't want to achieve victory for no apparent reason,
so you choose to follow a more challenging path.
You don't hesitate because there is more meaning in the difficulty.
It causes us to dash ahead regardless of the dangers. Only then will we discover
that impulsive action not only allowed us to retain our pride.
It's also an opportunity to get closer to the truth.
