[Almost Lover]

[Episode 9]

Well... Then... You...

The perpetrator will be guilty.

That's why this little rat will make you nervous.

I'll have my resignation for you tomorrow.

You can sue me, but can you let me make arrangements for Tai Yang first?

Zhao Mingxuan is only helping you because he can take advantage of your weakness to benefit himself.

You think you're repaying a favor, but it really is just a deferred payment.

It's clear...what kind of person he is, right?

I can overlook this.

All of Jifeng rely on you as if you're the older brother.

Mr. Ling,

next time, have a clear understanding before making decisions.

You may leave.

Hello everyone, you're listening to Wusu's traffic radio station, FM 78.8.

Everyone helping each other.

There's an update on the Jifeng health violation incident that was posted about online not too long ago.

After careful investigation, it is confirmed that the person who snuck into Jifeng's kitchen was their former head chef, Mr. Hu.

He admitted it.

He fabricated the fake video to seek revenge for getting fired.

He is now in police custody and under investigation.

The inspection results from the departments concerned state that

Jifeng Hotel completely adheres to food safety and sanitation standards.

Of course, allowing a criminal to sneak into their kitchen

reveals their flaws in management.

Due to this, they developed a series of measures.

For example, hiring a third-party company for supervision,

setting open house dates every months for guests to visit,

and livestreaming in the kitchen.

This is Jifeng's situation after the settlement.

Although we had an unpleasant interruption, we're getting more attention.

Jifeng isn't perfect in every aspect,

but they look promising in finding the right direction

and enhancing their advantages.

Mingxuan.

The focus on our partnership is to manage five-star wide-scale chain hotels.

However, Jifeng is a special case.

You can let us manage

your unique hotels.

Uncle Xiao.

Yunlai doesn't have that many employees. Will you be able to handle?

I'm getting old and may not be as capable as I was,

but as Xiao Qi just said,

Jifeng's operational model will shift to electronic management.

That way we can save on manpower and a lot of effort.

I'll consider it.

Director Xiao, your coffee.

Thank you.

You're in a good mood.

Tell Deputy General Manager Lin

to pay more attention to Jifeng's situation for the next couple of days. I have other things to attend to.

Okay. Is there anything else pressing that I can help with?

Moving.

Coming.

Done packing?

Are you ready?

It's a lucky today so it's good to move today.

Let's go.

Starting from today, Xiao Shangqi and I have a home in Wusu.

We now share a home with just the two of us, having our three meals a day and experiencing the four seasons together,

passing the days as we do everything together.

The person you love is right next to you.

Regardless of whether it's sunny or rainy, the temperature in our home belongs to the two of us.

This kind of life is worth smiling about when you wake up in the middle of the night.

What's the matter?

It's nothing.

Have a seat.

Here.

Xiaoran, welcome home.

Come in.

How's unpacking?

I'm almost done.

Why did you roll up all your clothes?

It saves space.

I heard that girls have a lot of stuff. Why do you only have one suitcase?

We're just renting this place. Who knows when we'll be moving again.

This way, I can leave whenever I want.

Xiaoran. From today on, you won't need to worry about anything.

Just pick your favorite.

Let's go.

What's on your mind?

Which one should I choose out of these four?

Take all of them.

You go pay the bill.

Okay.

- This one with a marble pattern is so nice.
- You definitely have a very good taste.

These electric toothbrushes with black and white marbel pattern are designed for couples.

And they're very popular among young people today.

I'll take both. We'll use matching toothbrushes.

Great. And we have a sales event going on now.

If you pay another 99 yuan, you can enjoy warranty for one year.

If you pay another 188 yuan, you can enjoy warrenty for two years.

Then we'll have the two-year one.

Okay.

We need a plan for keeping things organized.

I might need this box sometimes.

If you put it there, I won't be able to reach it.

Well, I'll always be there when you need it.

I'll carry you.

Okay, okay. I've reached it! I've reached it!

That was cunning.

Wait a moment.

Damn.

-Ranran.
- Mom. Dad.

Did you finish moving?

Why is your face so red?

Oh. I was organizing my stuff. I'm feeling a bit hot.

Show us around your new place.

Behind me is the living room.

It's pretty big. And there's plenty of sunshine here.

This side is where my bedroom is.

Then . . . on this side

there's a really big courtyard outside.

And there's plenty of flowers and plants here.

And this is where my flatmate's room is.

Why is your camera so shaky?

Oh, nothing.

This apartment looks really nice.

Ranran, you and your previous colleague were living together just fine.

Why'd you move again so suddenly?

How is your new flatmate?

My flatmate is very nice, and easy to get along with.

Very neat.

Is he male or female?

Of course it's a girl. There aren't many neat guys out there.

Oh, right. Dad, mom, I'll send you my new address.

If you send me package, please send it here.

Didn't you say that we should ship all the packages to the radio station?

You said that the apartment you rented wasn't safe

and it wasn't a stable place to stay, either.

It should be pretty stable this time.

I got to go. I still have the stuff to organize. Bye bye!

Oh, okay, you're busy. Go on.

Ok, bye bye.

Why didn't you tell your parents that you're dating me?

You know when I first came to Wusu,

my parents weren't so supportive.

And I insisted on coming here.

Although they don't know what happened between us,

but they assumed that we cut off.

I think I'll need to explain it to them in person,

- so they can accept it.
- I see.

When I visited your parents last time, they were very indifferent to me. And they asked me to not contact you anymore.

So I'm thinking that next time when we're on holiday,

we can go to Hupu and explain to them in person.

Today is only the first day that we are moving house.

In the future, let's be good, okay?

Okay.

[It's your moving in gift. Rest up with birdie.]

It's your moving in gift. Rest up with birdie.

This is a radio station exculsive for Xiao Shangqi.

I'm Host Xiao He.

The first day of moving house,

perhaps you might not be able to sleep in a bed other than your own.

I'll play a song that I like for you.

If you have any content that you'll like to share with the host,

please call the hotline.

♫ Looking at the people around that are unfamiliar yet familiar ♫

♫ How I want to admit/i> ♫

♫ today's innocence ♫

♫ The tone of voice that is tender like water ♫

♫ I'm here ♫

♫ Slowly getting close to you, how touching ♫

He has really slept.

That's reasonable. He always stays in a hotel. He should be able to sleep on any bed.

Who said that?

Why haven't you sleep?

I'm thirsty.

I came out to get something to drink

- Do you want to drink?
- I'm not drinking.

Once you finish drinking, sleep early.

I'll get another can for you.

You're up.

Why do I have the feeling that I'm been abandoned?

I missed Director Zhou's call yesterday.

Now I quickly go to the station.

- I'll send you.
- No need. I won't make it in time.

I've called a taxi.

I thought I can eat breakfast with you.

I'm sorry. I'm really in a rush.

I'm leaving.

Take care.

I'll cut to the chase. There's a colleague in our Group A who resigned.

There's a vacancy. Are you interested?

Why did you suddenly think of me?

Last time, I always think you are a master of bargaining.

But from the missing person live stream to the Jifeng Restaurant incident,

I think your performance not bad.

So I looked at your resume.

I found out that you've always worked hard towards being a reporter.

But I want to remind you that doing news,

your handphone needs to be turned on 24 hours.

You have to be mentally prepared.

I want to ask Old He first.

He agreed.

[Yunlan Jifeng Hotel]

My dad gave me this. I can't give it to you.

- I want it!
- Baby, what's wrong?

It's just a book. I'll buy it for you. Return it.

This child, why would you hit someone?!

No discipline at all.

- This is your son?
- What's the matter?

He's my son.

Just now you saw it. Your son hit another person.

Quickly apologize to us!

This lady, who needs to apologize to whom exactly?

If you want to talk it over, we'll find a place to reason it out.

- What's wrong?
- Are you his leader?

Your employee condoned his son to hit other people.

- Are you dealing with it or not?
- Hello, Guest.

It's normal for kids to have conflicts.

If adults don't care, it's definitely the adults' responsibility.

How about this? Do you need me to call the police to pull the CCTV footage?

Let's see who hit first and make clear who is responsible.

You're bullying. What kind of damn hotel is this?

Baby, let's go.

Let's go.

How is he?

He's good.

Quickly bring him to rest.

What's up? Feeling upset?

Is it because I'm not by Mum's side,

so Mum is also ridiculed by others?

Are you missing Mom?

Mom's just going

on a different path than where we're going.

But it's also a happy path.

A news channel?

Yeah.

I didn't expect that live-streaming a missing persons search and refuting rumors for Jifeng would open up such opportunities.

But Helping Each Other is just starting to see some success.

I'm a bit reluctant to leave now.

Silly girl.

Like you said, you'll just be a few floors away. You can see them whenever you'd like.

Good luck, Reporter He.

Sounds nice. By the way,

they're nagging me about a house-warming.

I was thinking we could have everyone over for a meal.

What do you think?

Of course we can. What the girlfriend says goes.

Xiaoran.

What is that?

Here, here.

Careful.

It's so big.

A house-warming gift.

I told you to buy a smaller one. It was exhausting to get this here.

Director Xiao gave us a huge jar of pickled vegetables.

He did the most, too.

I have to make my presence known.

It sure is known. It's such a large plant people might think you have other intentions for it.

Why didn't you mention that idea earlier? I wouldn't gotten a few more.

Enough, stop messing around.

Didn't you guys buy a lot of new furniture?

He asked the florist for the most formaldehyde-removing one

and got such a large one. It was such an exhausting task.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You guys made this place look like it's your newlywed home.

- Xiaoran, we're here!
- We're here.

- Old He.
- Congratulations.

- Thank you.
- Congratulations.

Everyone's here now. Change your shoes and let's eat.

- Thank you! Come on.
- Come on. Come with me.

Come on in.

Congratulations again on your new home.

Thank you.

- Congratulations, Sister Xiao He, for getting a job at the news station.
- Director Xiao.

Director Xiao? I'm sure you don't know

that Helping Each Other has a nickname.

We're called the radio station recycle bin. We only take in people that other teams don't want.

Li Hui has a fierce personality.

She got into an argument with someone at the music station three times and it ended up in a physical fight.

Sui Mingwei is the station bully and a walking gun.

He will do anything that's out of line.

I voluntarily transferred here. Brother Sui stood up for me once.

Good boy.

You're the most honest one here.

The person who brings bad luck to us. Our Xiaoran.

She finally graduated from our Helping Each Other.

I don't have this sense of achievement for many years.

- Old He.
- Why are you sad?

I'm not sad. I'm thinking following the pulling out of Helping Each Other,

I'll also retire honorably.

I didn't expect

I move about with your guys again.

What move about with us? When you tortured us...

I still remember when I first came,

you chased after me every day to find those shitty materials.

And when we were striving for ratings,

we were submerged in the vulgar forum every day.

When it comes to the reporting of topics, we compared who's threshold is lower.

Do you still remember we acted the voice-changing recording?

I remember. That was a nightmare.

But honestly speaking, our Helping Each Other can be revived is all thanks to Director Xiao's call.

You're right.

Director Xiao.

I, Old He, toast to you.

I don't deserve it.

- Thank you.
- Quick, sit.

- Sit, sit.
- Pour it.

You to Hupu people make here look like a new house.

You are really planning to set up camp here in Wusu?

I know.

It's definitely because Hupu's vibe is not suitable for you two.

Otherwise, why would you two only got together after so long?

We like Wusu.

What's wrong with setting up camp here? We still want to live here for a long time.

When the time comes, we get the pension together.

Pension?

Find Zhou Lili for pension.

You can't even get ¥1 from me.

What's wrong with you give me half of yours? Cheapskate.

Come, come.

Drink, drink. Come Director Xiao. Come.

- Congratulations again. Congratulations to you two.
- Thank you.
- Come, come.

The pot is boiling. Quick, eat.

Come, come.

Don't just talk.

- Old He, slowly.
- Let's drink some more.

- Slowly.
- Leave him to me.

- Drink some more.
- I'm leaving.

- Okay.
- Thanks, thanks.

- We're not sending you off.
- We're leaving.

- Be careful on the road. Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.

Quick, let's go in.

You drank quite a lot today.

Happy.

Slowly.

Is it okay?

Just now chatting with everyone made me think of

that that chaotic self when I first came to Wusu.

But ever since I reunited with you,

I feel that good things keep happening.

It makes me have a lot of drive.

Xiao Shangqi.

I really like Wusu very much.

Even though here is not as bustling as Hupu,

it has the joy of a small city.

The distance between people is also not so far.

For example, when buying things,

after going there more than 4 to 5 times, the owner will know you.

When taking the bus, if you don't have small change, there's still someone voluntarily help to pay.

Even though I stumbled into this place,

I really like it very much.

I want to always stay here.

Let's always stay here, okay?

Okay.

I still think something is off about the two of them.

I think there's something off with you.

They are already staying together and you're wondering without reason.

You didn't realized that when Hupu was mentioned today, something is off about the two of them?

Especially Xiao Shangqi. You say, they are running a hotel.

Their base is in Hupu.

He's not staying in Hupu. Why is he hiding here?

That plant is ¥360, right?

We pay our share. I'll transfer ¥180 to you.

I'm talking about relationships.

Why are you keep saying money?

You are wondering without reason because money worries got lesser.

I've transferred it to you.

Dad.

You haven't sleep?

What is your think about Jifeng's incident?

Business competition. Being framed will happen sooner or later.

Recently, your relationship with Zhao Mingxuan has gotten a lot better.

I don't think so. It's not considered to have gotten better.

This time, it's not good to let outsiders know that you two brothers are not getting along.

A'Xian, I'm not asking you two brothers to be very close.

But you're clear on who's on our side and who's on the other side.

Dad, I understand what you mean.

But you also saw. Xiao Qi is too high profile. He's totally not listening to opinions of the headquarters.

Yes.

This time is a close call. But the action of doing what he wishes without restraint will cause trouble sooner or later.

Then what do you think?

I want to make a trip to Wusu to understand what is the situation exactly.

There's no movement of staff in Jifeng. This is too dangerous.

Zhao Mingxuan manages Jifeng for so long. I don't believe his people are not here.

You said it.

The matter regarding running the business online, I hope Xiao Qi can come back as soon as possible to help.

Zhao Mingxuan

Director Xiao. Director Xiao. It's not good.

Someone broke into your office. This person...He...

Xi He, What's going on?

Jifeng came out the hands of Deju.

Since you want to have it for the long-term, shouldn't you keep tabs on the staff?

How would you know if I keep tabs on that or not?

I already know about the situation at the restaurant.

Lin Zong once worked under Zhao Minxuan.

Why haven't you fired him?

Were you not uncomfortable in Hupu, Older Brother?

What made you want to get involved with the company's issues?

No matter how small or far away the problem is, it's not yours.

Just because Dad and I let you do your own thing for a bit doesn't mean you can just leave Yunlan.

So as the CEO of headquarters

I want to fire someone, do you have an opinion on that?

Getting rid of Lin Zong is just like telling everyone in the company

-that me and all of Jifeng answer to you.
-No.

This isn't about answering to me, it's about Yunlan. Xiao Qi, I admit

You have done great work at Jifeng

but you should know that sooner or later you will have to leave and return to Hupu.

Hupu is your main battlefield.

It doesn't matter

I will be here for a few days to help you sort out the employee system.

Anyway, Jifeng's problem isn't solved.

Hupu also has its issues.

Alright, time to get busy.

Director Zhou

Oh, Xiaoran, you're here.

Everyone, please listen a minute, let me introduce you

This is our new coworker here in Group A, He Xiaoran.

Hello everyone

Our work pace is pretty fast, everyone is very straightforward. It's best to get used to that.

By the way, what do you get from this script?

The difficulties of settling down with young children

for migrant and part-time workers.

But?

Shouldn't we get the perspective of the kindergarten schools that accept these children

to uncover how they specifically operate?

Okay, this will be your first assignment. You can get busy with it. There's your desk.

Thank you , Director Zhou.

Don't call me Director Zhou, call me Lily.

-Good luck!
-Thank you

[Placement of Migrant Children]

Our migrant children childcare is a nonprofit in nature

but the government also gives us subsidies.

We also have lots of personalized care, mainly to help parents who need extra help

in order to lessen some of their child-raising needs.

What are they doing over there?

Those are the students in the middle class participating in a reward ceremony for the municipal painting competition.

Their prompt was to paint their home.

This painting is not bad, put on your medal.

Here is your prize.

My Daddy says that all happy things come from my

Mommy's love, so that's what I painted.

Good. Go on.

This student is in the Rabbit class.

This class is one with many personalized care plans.

Most of the kids in this class have parents who work through the weekend

Most of them stagger holidays or weekdays so that they can attend class over the weekend.

This is one of our classroom buildings. This is where the children play.

How about you take a look around. I will be right back.

Miss, what are you doing?

Miss Wang, that was really strange

-She said she was looking for Taiyang, but didn't explain her relationship with him.
-Where did she go?

[Yunlan Jifeng Hotel]

What is this "if you don't write the truth, you will bear the consequences"? It sounds scary.

We have to clarify the month and day of each job. Our industry is really unstable.

Also, who keeps specific records of how long we have been working at Jifeng?

What's the matter?

I don't want to talk about it. Yesterday headquarters suddenly sent a person over, someone more difficult than General Manager Xiao.

They said that all employees need a background investigation.

You are all resting out here.

Let's go.

General Manager Xiao, you are so majestic.

Who came?

My big brother.

Your brother came?

What are you doing here?

I was off-site, at Taiyang's Kindergarten

but I can across a woman who was asking about Taiyang.

I felt it was a bit weird. I wanted to talk to Deputy General Manager Lin, but he came back, so I just...

The woman you just mentioned, what did she look like?

That woman could have been Taiyang's mom. I even thought

she left a long letter that year and left resolutely. I never searched for her again.

That year, she had a person she liked

but they were on and off

And me? I persevered for four years

until she finally started to give me a chance.

Then, there was Taiyang.

But the day of Taiyang's 100 day feast, she suddenly disappeared again.

-Where did she go?
-She went to go find the man that she liked before.

The letter "I'm leaving 'the mistake' with you."

I looked at Taiyang, and I thought to myself

how could someone refer to such an adorable child as a mistake?

The child is clearly a gift.

Then, how did she know you both were here?

When we broke up, I wrote her a letter...

And told her I was taking Taiyang to Jifeng.

There are few kindergartens in the area.

So does the fact that she showed up mean that she regrets it? That she wants to take Taiyang?

I don't know.

She'll probably come again.

What do you think?

Things concerning Taiyang is our problem too. No matter what you decide, we'll support you.

I think that Taiyang has the right to see his mom.

If she really wants to return to Taiyang, then Taiyang also had a right to choose.

I will respect Taiyang's decision.

Also, I understand your brother's big move to initiate an investigation, General Manager Xiao.

If it's possible to delay the deadline by a few days

perhaps she will return to the kindergarten or Jifeng to find me.

So you're saying that the matter at the restaurant has to do with Deputy General Manager Lin?

It turns out that General Manager Lin is very sentimental.

At the core, I can understand his dilemma. I don't want to embarrass him either.

Then talk to your brother.

I originally wanted to go along with Xiao Xian

He came this time to fight for his right to speak.

As for Deputy General Manager Lin, I...

Jifeng is Deputy General Manager Lin and Taiyang's home.

Today when I went to interview Taiyang's kindergarten, I saw a painting that Taiyang made.

The home that he painted was Jifeng.

Look.

Anyway, no matter what you choose to do, I will watch over Taiyang.

Xiaoran, I'm coming in.

Xiaoran

This. What is this?
-Dawei.

Yes, Dawei. What about this?

What is this?

-Spider.
-Yes.

You're that journalist from yesterday, what's up?

Nothing. I'm just taking a look around.

Then if you need anything let me know.

Ok

I talked to HR.

In regard to the dismissal process, I need to talk to Lin Zong face-to-face.

Do you want to? Or do you want me to?

Let me.

But the reasons for Yunlan dismissing people is divided into different types.

Violation of company code. Major mistakes. Affecting the team.

What is the reason for dismissing Lin Zong?

Did the matter at the restaurant not affect us?

Where's the evidence?

Older Brother, firing someone is simple

but we can't break the rules, otherwise how will I manage

so many people?

I don't understand. Are you trying to protect him?

Or do you simply just not want to listen to me?

But no matter

It's not hard to find someone's mistake.

- Cake! Cake!
- This is for you.

Thank you.

Thank you, Deputy General Manager Lin.

Here.

-Tasty!
Does everyone have a fork?

-I think everyone does.
-You don't.

You eat this.

Is it good?
Very good.

General Manager Xiao.

This is?

The hotel is fully booked today, so I wanted to celebrate with the housekeeping department

and reward everyone.

Today you get cake, tomorrow you should get bonuses.
