Mr. Huo,

Yunfeng Hotel

has become

one of the three candidates

for Fujiade Auction's partner selection.

Our meeting today

will mainly discuss

the latest bidding tender.

Winning the tender

is a good opportunity

for Yunfeng's publicity.

Yes.

(I've told you.)

(It's the peak season now.)

(I told you to keep)

(all the rooms vacant.)

(Why did you accept outbound reservations?)

(I was scared)

(it might be too suspicious)

(if the whole floor doesn't have any outbound reservation.)

(I'm in charge of this matter.)

(Do you know how much we can make)

(for each room during peak season?)

(I understand.)

(What should we do now?)

(Go back now.)

(Destroy all correspondence)

(and relevant documents.)

(Okay.)

It's...

It's rubbish.

It's all rubbish!

Turn it off now!

Turn it off!

Enough!

Wait.

I'm sorry, Mr. Huo.

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

I deserve to die!

Enough.

In my office now.

Su Xie Yi.

(Interviewer) A University of Hannover graduate

majoring in hotel management.

You have good results.

You did very well in every subject.

Fluent in German

and Italian?

Yes.

Tell me,

which

is your favorite hotel?

The Surrey Hotel in Auckland.

It has a British style

and is similar to a bed and breakfast hotel.

Any reason why?

The founder of the hotel

is the descendant of a survivor

of the Titanic accident.

Maybe because

the family had experienced life and death,

they cherish the present

and the memory of old acquaintances more.

And they have more faith in the beauty of life.

What is

a hotel to you?

As we all know,

there's a saying

in our hotel industry

that a hotel is people's second home.

But I have to disagree

because there's only one home,

which is irreplaceable.

I told you to keep an eye on Li!

I never asked you to cause any trouble!

Mr. Huo,

we were very cautious.

Someone must be

behind this.

Could it be

Li who did it?

This happened

when he had just come here.

Yes,

it must be him.

We'll know if it's him

after we look into it.

(Control Center, No Admittance)

Uncle Bai.

Miss Yi.

Uncle Bai, no need to get up.

Okay.

Well,

I need to check

the monitors in the control room.

I need recordings for the last 12 hours.

Okay.

Do you like Ocean Hotel?

Of course.

Ocean Hotel

is my goal.

(Job Preference. General Manager's office) I can see from your resume

that your job preference

is the General Manager's office?

Mr. Li,

the board of directors has decided

to dismiss Lin Tai officially.

Here are some new resumes

submitted by the HR Department

to you.

(I major in hotel management.)

Ocean Hotel is the hotel

that I want to work for the most.

Number one.

What's wrong?

Why are you panting from sending the resume?

It is the hardest to serve

the prince.

Have you watched the drama?

The most difficult task in the palace

is to accompany the prince to study.

(Zhu Zhen Zhen)

Come in.

Mr. Li,

I've gotten the medicine

from Dr. Wu.

Why are you looking at all these?

Anyone sent by the HR Department

must have been arranged by Huo Jian.

One of the moles has just left.

Huo Jian is so anxious

that he's trying to send some more here.

Even if

we can't find a trustworthy one,

we can at least reject them, right?

The problem is,

this happened to Mr. Lin

as soon as you came to work.

Huo Jian will definitely

suspect you.

(General Manager's Office, Ocean Hotel) (Miss Su Xie Yi,)

(congratulations)

(for passing your interview)

(and becoming part of Ocean Hotel.)

(You're welcome to join us officially tomorrow.)

(General Manager's Office, Ocean Hotel.)

Hello,

I'm Su Xie Yi, reporting for duty.

Welcome.

This is the employee handbook

and your desk.

Work hard.

Thank you.

Hello there.

I'm Gong Ming Yue.

Hello.

I'm Su Xie Yi.

Did you see

that Lin Tai just now?

Have you heard of it?

About what happened.

I'm new, so I'm not too sure.

What happened?

How could you not know about it?

You missed out on the whole drama.

Let me tell you...

It's about giving private discounts on the hotel rooms.

Mr. Lin

and Chen Shan, the manager of the Housekeeping Department,

were behind all that.

We just don't know

who exposed this matter.

Two people were fired at the same time.

So ruthless.

That person did well.

That person did

what I didn't dare to do.

If I know

who that person is,

I'm going to reward him with bravery awards.

They completely disregarded the prince.

The prince is still here.

You're going to make

the prince come out here.

Get back to work.

Quickly now.

She came as expected.

Please stop

what you're doing now.

Listen to me first.

Everyone knows

that Lin Tai was fired, right?

The job of the secretary of the Deputy General Manager

is important.

It can't be delayed even by a day.

Anyone who's free for these few days

can temporarily fill in

as the Deputy General Manager's assistant.

I can't.

I'm currently preparing a plan

that needs to be completed next week.

Jessica,

I'm busy with the report forms,

so count me out.

Lately, I...

Gong Ming Yue,

if you have time to watch palace drama,

I'm sure you have the time

to be the assistant.

I wasn't watching it for fun.

I'm

studying their attires.

We're going to hold

a palace theme event later, right?

You and your excuses.

I can go.

Come in.

Mr. Li,

this is your temporary assistant,

Su Xie Yi.

Hello, Mr. Li.

Before the new secretary

is confirmed,

she'll temporarily take over Lin Tai's work

for these few days.

All right.

You can leave now.

I want to talk to Miss Su.

Okay.

This is the access card of the office.

Do your best.

Okay.

You said he hired a new employee

as his assistant?

Yes.

Let him be.

By the way,

how did it go at the control center?

I've watched the footage

a day before the incident.

There wasn't anything unusual.

You mean

no one unrelated went in?

I even checked those

from the broadcasting room.

He had no idea at all.

How can

there be no trace at all?

The timestamp is a little odd.

But in terms of motive,

Li Ze Liang is the most suspicious.

Do you think

he's just pretending to be weak?

He already knew we sent Mr. Lin

to watch him.

So he appears not working

but sent someone to look into Mr. Lin.

I guess I underestimated

this nephew of mine.

Uncle Bai,

can you copy this for me?

Okay.

Also...

Don't worry.

I'll clean it up

without any trace.

You were the one who exposed Mr. Lin.

Yes.

Why?

As a newcomer

who came for an interview,

I happened to record

such filthy affairs.

My sense of justice does not allow

such a person to exist.

Moreover,

I already said

Ocean Hotel is my number one.

So I won't allow

anything like this to happen.

Is that all?

No.

Thank you for letting me

be your assistant.

You can say

we're even now.

In the future,

I'll need your guidance on work.

All right. I'm done.

If there's nothing else,

I'll get back to work.

Hello, Ying Song.

I want you to look into someone.

What are you snapping?

I was snapping at the beautiful view.

Oh,

you said

you returned from overseas.

Were you studying abroad?

Yes.

Which country?

Germany.

Germany?

I came back

from studying in Germany too.

I studied hotel management.

Really?

Which university are you studying at?

I've already graduated.

The University of Hannover.

What a coincidence.

So you're my senior.

Really?

Hello, junior.

Senior,

you're very fortunate today.

I'm going to let you eat

the most delicious crab roe noodles in the world.

Okay.

If you stir

the crab roe like this,

it's only going to be

the world's number two.

It lacks some soul in it.

That's impossible.

This is handed down from my ancestors.

Besides, how do you know

when you haven't even tried it?

Listen.

Crab roe itself smells fishy.

So it will smell fishy.

Moreover, this crab roe of yours

was under the sun for a long time.

We've already passed

the best time to eat it.

If you want to get rid of the smell,

you should add...

Vinegar.

Vinegar won't help.

What should I add, then?

(Plum Wine)

Give it to me.

Actually,

it's best to add Shaoxing wine when cooking crab roe.

Crab roe cooked with Shaoxing wine

is fragrant, delicious, and not greasy.

However,

using plum wine is okay too.

Why are you smiling?

I wasn't.

You were looking at that side...

What is it? Let's talk inside.

You asked me

to look into your temporary assistant, right?

What did you find out?

Based on her resume,

Miss Su

used to live in Germany.

So I sent someone to dig more

and found that she had been hospitalized

for some time two years ago.

Hospitalized?

Did you find out

what she was treated for?

The medical database system is different.

Besides, it concerns the privacy of a person.

So it's difficult to get more info.

You can stop investigating.

I'll do it myself.

Hello, Mr. Li.

Hello.

Mr. Li, it's this way.

I'm used to walking this way.

Mr. Li, hello.

Hello.

Hello, Mr. Li.

(Where's the contract?)

Li Ze Liang,

are you this childish?

(Is it sweet?)

(Yes.)

Don't tell your mom about this.

Let's make a pinky swear.

Hello?

Miss Su,

did you work overtime on your first day at work?

Don't look around.

I'm not that free to be following you around.

On your first day at work,

I'll treat you to dinner

as your superior.

I'll send the address

to you later.

(Jiu Si)

Mr. Li,

you've brought your friend with you today.

Do you come here often, Mr. Li?

Every time I think

about crab roe noodles,

I'll come and eat here.

That's right.

Our crab roe noodle is the best

and the most authentic.

Miss, please take a look.

I'll have crab roe noodles as well then.

All right.

Two bowls of crab roe noodles, right?

Only one.

Give us two empty bowls.

We'll be sharing.

(I only prepared one serving.)

Let's share.

Let me do it.

Having too much of a delicacy like this

can be overkill.

Just one taste of it

could make this life worthwhile.

The view is beautiful.

The position of this tree

is too perfect.

Do you think

that someone moved

this tree here from somewhere else?

If that's the case,

it must be suffering.

Why?

Trees have memories too.

If you move a tree along with its roots

to a different ground,

they will suffer too.

Because

they can't forget their past.

Some trees slowly die

because they can't get used

to the new soil and environment.

Only the trees that can adapt

and forget their past completely

can survive.

It sounds pretty sad

when you put it like that.

But exchanging a new life with memories

seems to be worth it.

You may say so,

but humans

aren't objects, after all.

You've gone too far.

You cooked it with so much effort.

I must eat more to show my appreciation.

Hey!

I'm not a kid anymore.

There was no need to hit me when I dropped my chopsticks.

It has nothing to do with age.

You need to be hit three times if you drop your chopsticks.

It's my habit.

What kind of habit is that?

You have no idea, right?

There's an old saying

that you need to be hit three times if you drop your chopsticks.

The first hit

means you're a fool.

The second hit

means blessing.

It is to wish you happiness

as "chopsticks falling" and "happiness" sound similar in Chinese.

The third hit

indicates that you'll get hit

by someone very soon

for dropping your chopsticks.

People around you

will hit you symbolically.

That way,

we can prevent you

from getting beaten even worse.

(Petty tricks.)

(So you're trying to bring up the past)

(to test if I have lost my memories.)

(All right.)

(Bring it on.)

Miss Su, what are you thinking about?

I think

you must take care of your health.

You can't eat too little.

This is the first time

someone has said this to me.

As your temporary assistant,

it's my obligation to take care of your health.

Your easygoing personality

makes me feel close to you.

Close?

It's like we've met before.

Also,

we've eaten

noodles from the same bowl.

That's what we called deja vu.

Most people would have

experienced that before.

Things they've never done before

and people they've never met,

yet they feel familiar with them.

Then do you

feel familiar with me?

For someone like you,

anyone would want to know you earlier.

I wasn't that fortunate.

But it's not too late to know you now.

I'll give a toast to you

with noodles instead of alcohol.

I thought it was supposed to be three...

What?

(Oh, no.)

(I almost gave myself away.)

What did you say just now?

Fishy.

I said fishy.

This crab roe smells a little fishy.

Don't you think so?

Yeah, it's fishy.

We'll just add some vinegar.

It'll smell even fishier if you add vinegar.

What should we add, then?

We should add...

Shaoxing wine? Plum wine?

(Every step is a trap.)

We should

not waste time and just order another one.

Excuse me.

The crab roe smells fishy.

Can you make another bowl for us?

Miss,

you can't wrongly accuse us.

Our crab roe noodle

is the most authentic.

Just make another bowl.

But...

I'll pay for these two bowls.

(Su Xie Yi,)

(you should stop talking.)

What are you doing?

Don't be nervous.

I just find

the view opposite to where I was sitting

isn't good enough.

I wanted to change seats.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

I just want to sit here

so I can enjoy the same view

as you.

You don't think the view you just saw

looks beautiful?

It's beautiful.

(Shameless.)

(You didn't say that)

(two years ago.)

Are you free later?

I want to take you somewhere.

A place

where we can see the sunrise.

(Ming Hao)

Hello?

Xie Yi,

do you have time for a meal tomorrow?

What?

Now?

All right.

I'll be there right away. Wait for me.

Why are you in such a rush?

I said

I'll be there right away.

I'll leave now.

Mr. Li, I'm sorry.

Something came up.

What's the hurry?

Do you have another date?

My friend wants to see me urgently.

I'll drive you there, then.

It's okay.

I can go myself.

The entrance is that way.

(Haotian Law Firm) Mr. Xie, look.

If it weren't for you, our daughter

would have been

abused for nothing.

Please accept this.

It's okay.

Please.

It's a small token

of appreciation.

No, you don't have to give it to me.

Since

it's free legal aid,

we won't accept

any kind of payment.

But you've helped us.

You're our family's benefactor.

Yes.

The law helped you.

I'm serious.

Take it back.

I suggest your daughter

consider changing her job

after she recovers.

She has gone through so much.

I'm worried

that her previous job

will bring bad effects to her mental health.

We'll tell her that.

Thank you so much.

Then

we'll get going if there's nothing else.

Take care.

Okay.

Thank you.

Not bad, Mr. Xie.

It was a timely help.

You're the best talker in the family.

Thank you for the compliment.

You went for an interview at Ocean Hotel.

Mr. Xie.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

You just set up your law firm,

and you have to take care of your sister.

I was afraid you couldn't manage.

Besides,

if I fail the interview,

it'll be too humiliating.

I think

you thought I was too busy

to take care of you.

Ming Hao,

you know

I must get into Ocean Hotel.

Xie Yi,

listen to me.

You're

in a dangerous situation now.

If the perpetrator finds out

your identity and motive,

no one will know

what they will

do to you.

Don't worry.

My mom and I left the country early.

No one can recognize me

ten years ago.

Let alone now.

What about Li Ze Liang?

Him?

I've already worked out a plan.

But the police

had found that Uncle Shen's death

was due to suicide.

There was nothing suspicious about his death too.

Besides, he did leave a suicide note.

He wrote it clearly too.

But all of you didn't see

what I saw.

If you insist on looking into it,

you'll need

to find the poison contract.

Before signing the contract,

it was clearly written

that the penalty for the breach of contract

was five million yuan.

How did the penalty

increase more than tenfold

on the day of signing the contract?

Someone was obviously

up to no good.

So

do you know

where the contract is?

I've searched his office.

I didn't find anything.

Also, he didn't come to the office before.

If he's always at home,

could the contract be...

That's it.

It must be at his place.

What are you thinking about?

Let's see

if I can help.

Ming Hao,

you already did me a favor.

I'll get going now.

Where are you going?

I got it now.

No risk, no reward.

Ying Song,

fix this buckle.

Mr. Li,

you shouldn't rush it.

You could make your workout less intense.

I can't.

Huo Jian

would never have dreamed

that you're desperate to recover

after putting his guard up

all the time.

But judging from Lin Tai's incident,

he's still suspecting

and doubting you.

So no one else should know

about this place other than you.

Yes.

Uncle.

What?

Aren't you going to invite me in?

Uncle, please come in.

It's already late.

What brings you here suddenly?

It's been a while since I last visited you.

I happened to pass by today.

Are you alone at home?

Have you forgotten

that I've always lived alone?

Have a seat, Uncle.

Ze Liang,

why is your house so messy?

Does no one

help you clean?

How about this?

I'll ask Yi Fei to come

and clean the house for you.

I'll ask her to bring some plants.

You'll be in a better mood

looking at plants.

It's okay, Uncle.

I live alone.

It's actually more comfortable to be a bit messy.

All right.

Take a seat.

Don't just stand there.

Okay.

I don't have anything else to drink.

How about some beer?

No need.

No need to bother.

Come.

Have a seat.

Look at your clothes.

You look sloppy.

It's been so long since you last worked.

How did it go?

You've seen it yourself.

I can't even manage my subordinates.

I've let you down.

You've only returned to work for a few days.

You can't take all the blame for what Lin Tai did.

It's my fault

for overlooking it.

But

who do you think released

that video of Lin Tai?

It was very odd.

Indeed,

even you can't find out who did it.

It is quite odd.

Logically speaking,

if an outsider did it,

there would be some trace left.

Do you think this person

is working at Ocean Hotel?

Why don't I help you

look into this matter together?

It's a small matter.

No need to trouble you.

You should

focus on work.

I heard

the General Manager's Office

had arranged a newcomer

as your assistant.

What on earth

are they thinking?

Don't worry.

I'll arrange

a candidate for you myself.

You're always busy.

No need to waste time on this small matter.

The newcomer

is a woman.

Perhaps she's more meticulous.

I'll see how it goes first.

Okay.

Ze Liang,

you must not lose heart

that easily.

I feel assured

to have you at the company.

I still have many things

to learn from you.

Stop drinking all the time.

Ocean Hotel will be yours in the future.

I'm only managing it for you.

Your dad left the hotel to me

before he died

because you were too young, then.

He wanted you to gain more experience.

It's a shame

that my brother-in-law

passed away too soon.

He didn't see you

for one last time.

You were the one

my dad trusted the most.

It has always been that way.

You're right.

Your dad is not only my family.

He also discovered my talent.

I won't be where I am without him.

Mr. Li,

your climbing gears have been repaired.

Fancy seeing you here.

Hello, Mr. Huo.

Are you still practicing rock climbing?

That's perfect.

I want to know

about rock climbing too.

Let me see it.

Well,

why did you think of repairing your gears?

Didn't you tell me to exercise more?

You know

I like rock climbing.

So I told Ying Song

to bring out

all my rock climbing gears.

I didn't know many of my gears were damaged

because I hadn't been using them for so long.

So

I asked Ying Song to get me some new ones.

I'll be going to the club

to start climbing again.

I'm relieved to hear you say that.

This painting is really not bad.

If you like it,

I can give it to you.

Ying Song,

take down the painting

and wrap it for Uncle.

No need.

I'm your elder.

I can't take away what you like.

Moreover, even if I like it,

I have to hold back.

It's only a painting.

No big deal.

All right, then.

I'm glad

to see that you're okay.

It's getting late.

You should get some rest too.

I'll be heading back now.

Okay. Thank you, Uncle.
