Zhengzheng.
You don't look well. You didn't sleep the whole night?
I called her all night and she didn't picked up.
Didn't I tell you before?
You can't explain reasonably when you are arguing with a woman.
Women never use their brains!
If I can't explain reasonably to her, how can I keep arguing with her?
No way, bro.
You don't know how to argue with a woman?
You should fake a quarrel but then give her a real compliment.
You have to be like this.
You think you're all that just because you're beautiful?
You think you can yell at me just because you have long legs?
You think you can bully me just because you have white skin?
You don't think I'll "bi dong" you? (T/N: 'bi dong' originates from 'kabedon' in Japanese; internet slang for when a guy pushes a girl against a wall)
I will love you forever! I will hold you forever!
I will kiss you forever.
Did you brush your teeth?
Get away!
Are you kidding!
You need to make sense of this logic.
When a woman begins to argue with you, from her first sentence,
she's already forgotten why she started arguing with you.
She only cares about one question: do you really love her?
Follow me and learn.
You make me so mad!
Why are you so beautiful?
Come on! Repeat after me.
I'm so angry!
Why are you so beautiful?!
That's good, just keep relaxed! Do it again.
I'm so angry!
Why are you so beautiful?
I know I'm beautiful.
I was born beautiful.
It didn't cost me anything.
You were still playing me, right?
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Please enjoy.
Sister Linda, thank you!
Thank me for what?
Thank you for what you said to me before.
I hoped my frankness didn't hurt you that day.
Those questions you asked me that day...
I really considered them carefully.
Who am I?
I'm just Tan Zhengzheng.
A normal girl who grew up in Beijing.
When I was a kid, I followed my father to Beijing.
All that I know came from this city.
The soil here, the air here...
The food I eat and even the architecture.
These have all contributed to my development.
The most important is the people here.
And those feelings.
You also asked me where I want to go?
Before, I really wanted to go out of the country
to learn design.
But that day, after you asked me.
I think I don't want to go anymore.
Because I can't leave here. In this city, I have the people I want to be with.
I can't give them up.
It looks like you're starting to understand.
But you still haven't answered me.
Why do you want to design?
That day, the designer named Sheng Xia that you talked about.
I grew up with her in the same compound.
We are childhood friends.
Actually, last time what you said,
indeed struck me.
Because I loved design ever since I was a little girl because of Sheng Xia.
What do I know? I don't understand anything.
When I was a child, I would just follow her around everywhere.
Whatever Sheng Xia liked, I also liked!
In the end, she moved out of the compound.
Our distance grew further and further.
Later she left the country, we were no longer in contact with each other.
So from then on
I always compared myself to her.
I also hoped my design could surpass hers.
But slowly
I couldn't find my original intention.
Sometimes when things got difficult, I considered giving up.
I asked myself
shouldn't I give up?
If I say that you should give up,
would you really give up?
Isn't that the answer?
Even a top designer in the world will always feel confused.
They'll turn around to find their original intent, be confused again, and search again.
But this confusion never hinders great designers from creating their best work!
Have you heard this sentence before, "keep in mind constantly, there will surely be a response".
You will be able to find it.
Can I?
I have a piece of kind advice, do you want to hear it?
The source of inspiration can be intuitive.
But your reasoning can't.
Your reasoning must be clear.
That's why when we draw a picture, we have to draw a profile first.
Designing is like this! Career is like this! Love is also like this!
For every step you take, think three steps ahead.
When I saw your works in the past,
I think the biggest problem is how chaotic it seemed.
It was very messy.
And I think your personality has the same problem.
I knew you would come back to visit me. What do you want to drink?
- I'm not drinking. - Did something happen?
I'm going back to Beijing.
What happened between you and Shen Kai?
I...
Then something has happened.
Well, that's great!
Can you please be more reliable?
There are many kinds of love in this world and there's no right or wrong.
Have you ever watched "The Bridges of Madison County"?
There was a cheating housewife in it.
The pure love between her and a photographer is so touching! Seriously.
Whatever. I'm leaving!
Don't leave. You two really can't be considered as having an affair.
Shen Kai and Sheng Xia already broke up.
I just want to tell you that I'm going back to Beijing.
Take care of Kaven. He can't continue drinking!
I hope he can be happy with Sheng Xia.
Why do you keep following me?
Your condition told me
not only did something happened between you and Shen Kai,
it's also very serious.
You love Shen Kai very deeply.
Actually, he also loves you.
It's just that he hasn't realized it yet.
He is currently caught in the midst of
an erroneous love zone that he wants to get, but actually can't get.
He also hasn't realized that
the one he truly loves is you, a girl that is silently investing in him.
I don't know what you are talking about.
What's your name?
Why should I tell you?
You may get a surprise by telling me.
Anyways, no matter what, I hope
you can help Kaven quit drinking.
Since I'm going back to Beijing and Sheng Xia is too busy to take care of him.
I'll trouble you in the future.
My name is Jia Xiaoduo.
Jia Xiaoduo.
I'll make a bet with you, you and Kaven will eventually get married.
If I win, can you introduce a boyfriend to me?
Height, age, and career all don't matter.
As long as him and I can get along and have good conversations.
Oh right. I know you will come back to see me.
You won't leave here.
See you later!
Dispute comes from having different standpoints.
Wanting to have different endings.
So we continue to wrestle.
Until one side loses the motivation to persevere
or finally realize that rather than expending energy to argue,
it's better to manage the relationship we both have.
It's so cold outside.
Xu Tian already has a cold.
So, don't let him go tonight.
This is his retribution.
Yes, you're right. This stubborn donkey freezing is his retribution!
Even if he slept outside for ten days, he would not give in to me.
Ten more days?
Do you understand my meaning?
I understand it!
Well, do I need to move back his mattress tonight?
Let me call Xu Tian.
Hello, Xu Tian.
Salina said you don't need to sleep on the street tonight.
Sleep.
Why not? Of course, I have to.
The weather forecast says it will rain tonight.
- Don't freeze– - I like the rain.
If there's no rain, I don't sleep. The harder it rains, the better.
Okay. Do whatever you want!
Then take care of yourself.
That's bad, he's already dumb from the cold. He insists on sleeping outside.
It's his choice, I'm not going to accompany you two tonight and endure that hardship.
Yes madam! I understand!
Understand what?
Drink with me.
I have to drive.
Then goodbye.
Salina said she will not come. Hurry up and get in the car, I'll take you to a hotel.
I'm not going to a hotel.
I want to stay outside.
I can feel the breeze, it lets me calm down.
It can let me think about things carefully.
Ok, the weather forecast says there's a 70% chance of rain.
At least be prepared!
Why did you get on?
Can I ask you something? Are there any cases recently related to water sources in the south slum district?
Cases about water source?
No.
Think carefully about it. Has anyone made a complaint or called the cops?
For example diarrhea or poisoning that kind of thing.
Diarrhea?
That's happened. A few months ago, a few officers in our precinct,
had to go to the hospital because of diarrhea.
Some residents around also went to the hospital due to diarrhea.
That means it's definitely not food poisoning but a problem with the water.
What happened after?
After that, there were no casualties, so the case was resolved.
Do you remember when it happened?
I think it was the day Salina and her artist boyfriend
broke up, April 3rd.
April 3rd?
- Are you sure? - Of course.
That day Salina asked me to go burn all the drawings her artist boyfriend had given her.
I had diarrhea. So I was late. She yelled at me.
Tomorrow, you need to go to the Department of Water Quality
and do everything you can think of to get all of their reports.
You have a clue? A big case?
You guessed right. My instinct tells me that this really is a big case.
Dig up all of the water quality test reports from March and April.
Big brother, I'm only a small police officer.
But you have money.
Go back into the back and feel the breezes. That money...
Where is that hotel you just told me about? Let's go.
What's going on? What happened?
Even if I die today, I won't let you touch a drop of alcohol.
- Why? - Because
a young lady came to see me. She gave me special orders not to let you drink alcohol.
- Girl? - You know who it is.
Never mind.
I didn't come here to drink anyway.
I came here to see you and take a look at that.
At the same time...here.
It's a donation for the living expenses of the slum children?
I'll accept it.
But this Jia Xiaoduo
really is a great girl. She's worth appreciating.
You know that my instinct is very on-point.
But this time you are wrong. I love Sheng Xia.
Stop refusing to see sense.
What did Xiaoduo tell you?
She didn't tell me anything.
But I can tell that something happened between you two.
You can tell? Don't talk nonsense, okay?
As a man, you should be more responsible.
You shouldn't persist in something you can't achieve. Don't let down those who are sincere.
It's really hard to say more than ten sentences to you, do you know that?
Why? Because what I'm saying goes too deep? Does it hurt?
It hurts a lot. I'm going. Bye.
- Don't let Jia Xiaoduo down. - Yep.
Do you think that pouting face you're wearing is cute;
so then I'll forgive you?
I won't. I won't accept your apology.
You have been here for a while. Why aren't you coming in?
I...
I've already communicated with the fine arts specialist.
She will do her best to convert those silk sleeves into something as a remedy.
She'll also take away those peacock feathers.
- You two made up? - Yes.
I apologized to her and agreed to show her some clothing I made.
- That's it? - Yeah.
I also contacted the 3-D animation department.
From now on, every design has to be updated and synchronize with the latest news.
Only this way can we guarantee that each department can grasp the true intention of the designer.
Is...isn't that my work?
I could share some of the work you haven't thought about.
I familiarized myself with each department's work processes.
Then, I made a time table for each design.
Take a look and see if there's any problem with it.
Then you, as the leader, will notify everyone at the same time.
Awesome.
You thought all this up?
Afterwards, I was thinking about it in detail. Actually, all this
is very similar to the process we use to make our clothing.
It's no more than who goes after who and how to do it.
As long as you understand all this before you do them,
you've thought it all out before doing them, naturally, it can't go wrong.
This will work.
Oh, by the way, why did you come here?
I came to have an argument.
You...do you think you're all that just because you're beautiful?
Do you think your pouting face will make me forgive you?
Do you think you can dazzle me with your pitch-black hair?
You...you...argue with him. Here. Continue.
Just because you're so cute, you think you can stop anyone else from getting a word in?
Hey, come back here. I haven't finished.
What? You won't even let anyone else say anything because you're beautiful?
I still don't get it. Why would you want to settle with Xu Tian?
He's just some nobody. It's not like he is going to win the case.
No. If he takes us to court, we will lose the suit.
Impossible.
Think about it.
If we won the suit, what would Xu Tian do?
He would continue investigating until he discovered a secret we are trying to hide.
In order to get Xu Tian to stop
we have no choice but to put the matter to rest by losing the lawsuit.
Are you willing now to settle or lose the lawsuit?
I don't think he is going to find anything.
Ivy. The significance of a lawyer
is not just to solve problems.
But also to wisely avoid problems.
Remember, hot heads like Xu Tian
who are energetic and overambitious.
They are experts at creating problems.
I just...I hate feeling like we are pinned down by some no-name lawyer.
I told you before, Ivy.
Your biggest problem is your overwhelming desire to win.
A really top lawyer has to know
that the battlefield is not just in the court room.
Our goal is not to win Anna's personal injury lawsuit.
Our goal is to get Xu Tian to stop focusing on the Shengda construction site.
So I heard Yun Fei say that Donald would come and talk to you.
How much did they give you?
Anna, I wanted to ask you.
Why do you want to fight this case?
After my injury, they completely ignored me.
It's infuriating. I just want an apology from them.
Not for a compensation?
Of course I want compensation.
I had to stay in the hospital to recover.
And it cost me so much. I need the money for surviving.
Anna, I don't know if you've ever heard the phrase "retreat in order to advance."
I've heard about it.
You are not seeing that you are rejecting the compensation here.
That's right and that is our only option.
So you're telling me that I'm getting nothing at all here?
Anna, compensation is important.
But your dignity is even more important.
Let me tell you. If Yun Fei found out that you took the money and lost your dignity,
I can promise you that from now on,
he won't speak a single word to you.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
I get what you mean.
I'm going to class now.
I'm handing the case over to you.
There is absolutely no reason to rush. Take your time.
That's good.
I learned what you taught me.
And I can already understand a fair amount of Chinese now.
It's your turn to learn English.
What do you want to say to me?
Don't say bird's language. Say it in Chinese if you're capable.
For your sake, I didn't accept the money.
- What? - Money.
- Money? - Yes.
- Money? - Right, money.
I did not accept the compensation.
I don't want the compensation.
Why not?
Xu Tian said he doesn't want money, he wants self-esteem.
What did you say? Sel-what?
Self-esteem.
Can check it?
Wait a minute, let me check the dictionary.
This kid doesn't want money?
Doesn't want money.
This one.
Dignity?
Right.
It looks like he is beginning to do something normal.
Not wanting money but dignity.
- Pretty good. What did you just say? - Right.
With you...
Talk to me in English.
- Okay. - Say something in English.
Okay. Then I'll
learn
- English. - English.
You said it right.
Your pronounciation is so good.
- Really? - Really.
Drink tea.
Okay.
Hello?
I found the water quality report you need.
That's great, Hank!
Where are you? I'll go find you.
I'm in the water quality testing room, come over.
Everyone is working hard.
I know.
I tell you some Chinese magic words.
When you are afraid, just keep reading.
What is it?
Every enemy is a paper tiger.
"Zhi hu"? What?
Every enemy is a paper tiger.
"Zhi lao hu"?
She's here.
Luzano, what took you so long?
I'm sorry! It's difficult to hail a taxi.
Is that a reason?
Vladimir's show, remember?
Can Sheng Xia go with us? I heard that your old friend Olivia will take two assistants to the show.
I'm afraid that if you only take one, you will be laughed at by her.
Okay. Go.
Smile! Look at the camera!
Smile, yes! That's great.
Have a look.
Yeah.
Such a coincidence.
Hank is in the water testing room, I need him for something. I didn't expect to see you here too.
I came here with our Director to attend Vladimir's show.
Right. Thank you for introducing me to this job.
That's how I have the opportunity to attend such a top-notch show. Thank you.
No problem! We are friends!
How's the show?
Very good.
Vladimir's style had changed a little bit.
He gave up the use of strong colors and became more gentle.
He's also becoming more and more magnanimous so I'm liking him even more.
Just now he had a jumpsuit.
It was the same with a previous design of mine.
Sheng Xia.
Time to go.
- Bye-bye. - Bye.
Sheng Xia.
[Fashion Show] [October]
♫ Oh~ time stopped in the cooling September ♫
It's so great to see her smile like that.
Maybe this is the life she wants.
Good work and good love.
Work hard, Sheng Xia.
The expense for May is ¥7832.7...
Well, Uncle Tan.
You don't need to continue entering them, this is all the accountant's work.
People should do lifelong learning.
Then Uncle Tan, how about this. You stay here and keep going, I have other matters.
- I'll take off first. - Okay, okay.
President Li, can you please talk to Uncle Tan? He's been here messing around for a whole day.
Fengying, you're back.
I tell you, I'm almost familiar with this accounting software.
I can help you with the accounting in the future.
What's up?
President Li, the thing about the bank loan.
The bank loan was refused
Refused?!
It was refused...Fengying, worrying is useless.
There must be a way to resolve this issue.
Look, it's already so late. How about we go eat?
Let me pack up and we'll go eat.
Fengying, dinner is ready. Let's eat.
Qiming, thank you for taking care of the house for me. You did a great job.
It's my duty!
And it's still the same, nothing's changed.
Yeah, I didn't move anything. I can't just throw our your things.
This thing is almost a cultural relic now.
This sewing machine was a gift to me when I married Sheng Yinghong.
Back then, the three most useful things to get for a wedding are bicycles, watches, and sewing machines.
He took the watch and lost the bicycle.
Only the sewing machine is left.
Fengying, it's been so many years and you had such a heavy burden,
it must've been hard on you carrying it alone.
We're both not that young anymore, why don't...
Why don't... Why don't you... you let me shoulder it for you?
How could you help me?
I can help you...help you with your business.
Forget it! Just help me cook and send it to my factory every day. That's helping me.
Cook every day, really?
Of course it's true.
You are not good at doing business, but you are good at cooking.
That's good. Then it's settled.
I will cook two more dishes for you.
You're late.
Mr. Donald. How did you get in here?
The door was unlocked. Didn't you know?
You wrote it.
- Coffee? - Sure.
I wrote this book myself. When I was sitting here, reading it
I actually felt a little unfamiliar.
That proves what you believe now is different from the book you wrote.
I wrote this quite a few years ago.
I dealt with all of these cases when I was your age.
I thought Ivy would be the one who'd be coming.
Ivy is on another case right now.
I seemed to be the person in the office that has the most free time.
Of course. You are a big firm. Endless number of cases on your hands.
What case did you like in this book?
The food poisoning case.
You fought the biggest food corporation here.
And brought 30 victims justice and compensation.
Yeah, it's interesting.
The Donald law firm now represents that food company.
You mean...there's no absolute justice?
I like your cleverness.
I'm very sorry. I can't be signing this agreement.
That's exactly what I expected.
As was your liking the case about food poisoning.
This feeling of
the little fish catching the big fish...
so exciting and then you feel like a hero.
But the book that you read only had one aspect of that case
there was in fact another side.
A very worthwhile project of that food company was destroyed by the lawsuit.
What does that mean?
Young man.
I just want to tell you the world
is not black or white.
It is really the grey areas that make the world work efficiently.
And, even achieve great progress.
That sounds pretty deep.
Let me speak simply. We are in the same profession.
I'm a lot older.
Would you like to know my opinion of you?
Of course. Only if you don't charge a fee.
Every young man who comes here is eager for success.
Success is not difficult, provided that you have 4 things.
Talent, effort,
ambition, and a platform.
You already have the first three.
And they are excellent.
All you lack is a platform.
I can provide you with such platform.
Are you like offering me a job?
It's a big stage.
How so?
Would you believe me if I said because I like you?
Thank you.
Are you sure that you are leaving?
Yeah. I've decided. I have no regrets.
This place has allowed me to meet a lot of good people
and also see beautiful sceneries.
But for me, the best memories are
still your home. I left in a hurry this time.
I didn't have time to say goodbye to your dad.
If you have time, please tell your dad, I welcome him to visit Beijing.
If he wants to come here, I will treat him well.
I think that he won't ever go back.
Because of your mother?
Maybe.
Actually I think uncle loves her a lot.
Maybe because he loves her so much,
that's why he hates her for leaving you two so soon.
And I think uncle really loves you.
It's just the way he expresses it is a bit stiff.
I think you and Sheng Xia should care about him more.
Maybe he will slowly accept Sheng Xia.
Oh right, after a while, it's uncle's birthday.
I think you should go back to your home and prepare a birthday for him with Sheng Xia.
Uncle will be very happy.
And he said he likes pipes, so I bought one for him.
When you come over here in a bit, don't forget to give him.
Thank you, you always think about others, and are so thoughtful.
Ok, can you come here earlier?
Sheng Xia just started her job, so she must not be late.
She has many things to finish.
Alright. Bye.
I can't believe what Donald did.
He went and talked to Xu Tian and asked him to come work at our firm.
I thought I should tell you since you're head of Shengda Corporation.
Calm down, Ivy.
This idea originally came from my mind.
What?
I had dinner with Donald
and we talked about the case and Xu Tian
and we decided to give him a chance to stand by our side.
Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?
If you want to destroy your enemy
you have to make him your friend.
Look, Gary, I know this guy. All right?
He's going to bring trouble here.
Remember this day. I'm moving out.
The true threat is good at lurking below the surface.
It will use the pretense of a compromise
to hide the actual probe and attack.
Wait. Xiaoduo too.
You're taking her with you to work?
Don't you have to attend a party in a little bit?
There should be many directors there, you can pay attention
and try to find a good job for her.
The kind of job that can help her extend her visa.
Wait, she wants to find a job?
I think something going on with her lately. She keeps helping me clean up at home.
She's not looking for a job or going on dates.
I think she's going back to Beijing. That won't do.
Sheng Xia, everyone has their own choices.
If she really wants to go back to Beijing, aren't you being too overbearing if you stop her?
And you like this place doesn't mean that she will too.
You don't understand the situation, she will have a hard life if she goes back to Beijing.
I understand.
Her mother died, and her father is still in prison.
You know?
She told me about it when we were talking about you.
She said except her parents, you are the closest person in the world to her.
Why don't I help her contact some partners in China and see if there's any suitable jobs for her.
No, even if she's going back to Beijing, she can go to my place to help my mom.
She is also my closest sister in the world.
The most sincere apologies
sometimes can't be placed on the surface.
Because once exposed,
it might not be able to turn a page with just a sorry.
