Wait for me.

I'll put down the luggage.

(Board Chairman)

Your seat

is so comfortable.

Do you like it?

You can have this office

if you like it.

(Chairman)

I'll take the office upstairs.

I don't think this is suitable.

Why not?

I'm the current chairman.

And you're my executive secretary.

It's perfectly reasonable

for you to have your own office.

People will think

that you're giving me special treatment.

I am giving you special treatment.

So what?

Do you think they can do something about it?

I appreciate your intention.

I still like

my original position better.

If not,

you won't be able to see me when you raise your head.

I can look downwards.

You...

Enough.

I'm here

to talk about business.

I came back

to join the Lantian Bay project.

Chu Chu is

in charge of the Lantian Bay project.

That's great.

I can learn more

from Ms. Shi.

Really?

Come in.

Miss Su, you're back.

Ms. Shi,

it's been a while.

I'll leave the room if you need

to speak with Mr. Li.

Have a seat.

What's the matter?

It's like this.

The Lantian Bay project

is progressing at full speed.

We need to purchase some construction materials urgently.

Please take a look.

I'll leave that

to you.

I believe in you.

By the way,

the commercial dispute

that Huo Jian had left for the company,

is Mr. Xie handling it right now?

Of course.

He's our corporate lawyer.

It's like this.

For these cases,

I wish to deal with them myself.

You don't need to pass them to Mr. Xie.

What do you mean by this?

I think these cases

are pretty important.

That's precisely why

I need to handle them myself.

It's better this way.

By the way, Chu Chu,

Xie Yi wishes to join

the Lantian Bay project.

Please lead her

and help her out.

She does intend

to learn from you.

Since Miss Su wants to learn,

I will oblige.

But Chairman Li,

please don't blame me for being too strict on her.

See you.

Come in.

Ms. Shi,

I've read the details

of the Lantian Bay project.

Just tell me

if you need me to do anything.

It's the end of the year now.

We haven't decided the kind of gift

we should give to our partners.

You can go and pick several kinds of gifts.

But...

The gifts represent

Chairman Li's image to his partners.

You're his girlfriend.

It's most suitable

for you to complete this task.

You know this as well.

I wish to contribute

to the Lantian Bay project.

Miss Su, since you're

truly interested

in the Lantian Bay project,

you should learn from me.

Take it one step at a time.

Is there anything else?

Ms. Shi,

I've always admired you

and respected you.

I believe that you're

a fair person.

Maybe it's my misconception,

but I think

you always had a grudge against me.

You can tell me if there's anything on your mind.

You're the daughter of Shen Zhi Hong, right?

That's right.

So you admit

that you hid your identity on purpose,

approached Ze Liang and infiltrated Ocean Hotel

for Zhiwei Corporation

and your father's sake, right?

I admit it,

that was the case at the start.

But this is over.

Huo Jian has been arrested.

And now,

I'm staying in Ocean Hotel

for a simple reason.

It's because I love the hotel industry.

And I wish to help Yan.

Is that it?

That's it.

You can ask Yan if you don't believe me.

He knows about it as well.

I did ask Ze Liang about it before.

But love makes people blind.

So I wish to give you

some reminders.

I don't care

what you're thinking,

but if you dare to hurt Ze Liang

and Ocean Hotel,

I will never let you off.

Ms. Shi,

I know you detested

my relationship with Yan.

Indeed.

Hengye Bank, which belongs to your father,

has always been an important financial support for Ocean Hotel.

You're very capable as well.

As for me,

I know I lose to you

in many aspects.

But Yan and I

have too many similar life experiences.

That's why

we understand each other better.

That's why

we're deeply in love.

Very good.

Love

is more than just fancy words.

You better perform in work.

(Su Xie Yi,)

(Ocean Hotel is everything to Ze Liang.)

(I can't let you ruin it for him.)

(I will reveal your true colors,)

(no matter what I have to do.)

Xie Qing,

time to take your medicine.

Where am I?

I'm very scared.

I wish to go home.

Where do you want to go?

I wish to go home,

my own home.

Don't you like staying here

together with me?

From today onward,

this will be your new home.

Only by staying here

and staying by my side

will you be safe.

Xie Qing,

did you remember anything?

For example,

the bank account?

I don't know.

I don't know!

I don't know!

I don't know!

It's fine.

It's fine.

You can stop thinking.

You should take your medicine first.

I don't want to.

Be a good girl.

You can have your mung bean cakes after taking your medicine.

Come.

Take your medicine.

Xie Qing,

you shouldn't have spoken without thinking.

If you do remember anything,

you must tell me first,

okay?

Come.

(Xie Yi)

Xie Yi?

Hello, Ming Hao.

How's Xie Qing?

Xie Qing's emotions are still unstable.

I plan to find her

a better sanatorium.

Is it that serious?

I'll visit her after work then.

No need for that.

She suffered a huge shock yesterday.

The doctor said

she needed to rest and recuperate for the time being.

No one should visit her.

How about this?

You can come and visit her after some time.

I don't want her to suffer another shock.

Alright.

You must contact me

if anything happens.

Don't worry.

Xie Yi,

are you done with your call?

Come and join us.

Coming.

Xie Yi,

what's on your mind? You look distracted.

Nothing.

By the way,

how were you guys doing

when I was on leave?

Let's drop the topic.

Our company wanted

to proceed with the Lantian Bay project.

We were busy every day.

Not only do we have to work overtime every day,

we had to attend meetings

from morning until night.

It must've been tough on you guys.

Eat up, okay?

It's my treat.

I was waiting for that,

lady boss.

Let's dig in.

I heard that you went for a tooth extraction.

Everyone said that extracting your tooth could make your face look smaller.

And your face...

I think it did become smaller.

I wish to extract my wisdom tooth as well.

But I have none.

Stop teasing me.

Isn't it great that you don't have one?

Hello?

Okay.

Stop eating.

Clean up the table.

Our higher-ups want us to attend another meeting.

Let's go.

Xie Yi,

please pack the food for us.

We haven't had our fill yet.

Understood.

Go now.

Okay, thank you.

Let's go.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Waiter,

please pack the food for me.

Excuse me, sir.

If you're not a customer,

you're not allowed to take pictures here.

Why haven't I heard of

that rule before?

Why can't I take pictures of the place?

Are you trying

to infringe my personal right?

This is the rule here.

Besides,

how did you know

that I'm not a customer?

Are you looking down on me?

Call your manager here.

I want to complain about you.

Hold this for me.

Excuse me, sir.

How should I address you?

My surname is He.

Are you the manager?

Hello, Mr. He.

I'm Su Xie Yi

from the chairman's office.

You did misunderstand

our employee just now.

This rule

was implemented not long ago.

But please listen to my explanation.

The dining environment here

is great.

At first,

it became popular

because people took pictures of it.

More and more influencers

and freeloaders

came all the way here to take pictures.

It has impacted our business seriously

and affected our customers' dining experience.

I'm sure you don't want

random people

to take pictures around you

when you're eating.

That's why this rule was implemented

to protect

our customers' rights.

Miss Su, I'm glad that you explained it

to me in that manner.

I'm not an unreasonable

person.

If you don't mind,

let me take the pictures for you.

Okay.

Sorry about that. I have rhinitis.

(No. 9 Steak House)

Mr. Li,

I've investigated the background of Yunxiao Fishery's owner.

His name is Tang Zheng.

He had never done any kind of business

before he established this company.

His hobby is fishing.

His past work experiences

have nothing to do with fisheries at all.

He sounds unreliable.

Where is he?

This person is as slippery as a catfish.

He went overseas

after his company went bankrupt.

I have no idea where he is.

Did you find any other clues?

Oh, yeah.

This is Qin.

He worked for

Yunxiao Fishery before.

Because of his love for fishing,

he was quite close to Tang Zheng.

Let's try

to find this Qin first.

Okay.

Mr. Dai!

Hurry! Please come in!

Let me introduce him. This is Mr. Xie.

Mr. Xie.

Hello.

This is

my secret trump card.

He's the chief editor of Hotel World,

Mr. He Jiang Hua.

Mr. He, today...

I did everything according to your plan.

I've met them

and I've taken pictures of them.

I knew we could rely on you.

Mr. Dai,

you'd made a great move.

Of course.

Come. How about this?

Let us have a toast

to prepare for the exciting show tomorrow.

Cheers!

- Come. - Cheers!

Come! Cheers!

(Shi Chu Chu)

Cheers!

Ms. Shi.

Mr. Xie.

I called you out at this late hour.

I'm not troubling you, am I?

Not at all.

Ms. Shi, it's my pleasure

for you to treat me to a drink.

So you just finished drinking?

I entertained several clients today.

Ms. Shi, your call

actually saved me.

So Ms. Shi, what do you need from me?

Nothing.

The Lantian Bay project

is proceeding smoothly,

and I have to thank you for that.

That's why I wish to treat you to a drink.

Come.

Now that the project

is proceeding smoothly,

Su Xie Yi wishes to join the project.

Ze Liang wants me

to lead her as well.

Mr. Xie,

do you have any suggestions?

After all, you know her better.

Su Xie Yi?

She's not suitable for it.

But why?

Is it because of her ability and experience?

Su Xie Yi is very intelligent.

It isn't as simple as you think.

Why are you saying that?

No, you see,

the Lantian Bay project

is too important.

Mr. Xie,

there's no need for you to hide it any longer.

Actually,

I've asked Su Xie Yi about it before.

She admitted

that she first joined Ocean Hotel

in order

to investigate the incident with Zhiwei Corporation.

She said so herself?

That's right.

She even said

that she's working for Ocean Hotel right now

because of her passion for the industry.

At first, I was wondering

if I could

truly believe her words.

But your attitude

has given me the answer I needed.

Plus,

you don't suggest I use her.

Is this a friendly reminder?

Ms. Shi,

we're friends.

Can you not...

Can you not make things difficult for me?

We're friends indeed.

But I hope we can become

close friends.

I wish to know

if Su Xie Yi has any ulterior motives

for staying with Ocean Hotel?

When Su Xie Yi wants to do something,

she'll do it somehow.

Do you know

how she managed to become

the Deputy General Manager's Secretary back then?

Lin Tai?

She was the one behind that incident?

Sorry, Ms. Shi.

Miss Su.

Mr. He?

What a coincidence. Are you here to buy books as well?

That's right.

I often go on business trips.

That's why I visit

the bookstores near the hotel.

I can buy some books as well.

Miss Su,

what are you buying?

I've been learning how to make soups lately.

I wanted to buy some cookbooks.

Soup?

Taking soup before meals

works better than medicine.

Soups are great.

You see, Miss Su,

in Guangzhou, they have old fire soup.

In Fujian, they have Buddha's temptation.

In Jiangzhe, they have bamboo shoot and salted pork soup.

In this world,

there are plenty of great soups.

Miss Su, I wonder

what kind of soup you like?

Mr. He, seems like you're very knowledgeable when it comes to soup.

Do you have any recommendations?

Miss Su, it depends on

who the soup is meant for.

It's meant for my boyfriend.

I suggest old fire soup then.

Managing a relationship

is just like making old fire soup.

You need to cook it for a long time.

Because of that,

old fire soup is...

Please wait.

Let me jot it down.

Miss Su,

the word stew

means to cook slowly in liquid in a closed dish.

So,

the pot meant for making soups is very important.

It's best if you use an aged clay pot.

The soup you make

is not just food that can fill up your tummy,

it's also a way of expressing your affection.

So a soup

is more than just a soup.

Miss Su, it represents

your love as well.

Mr. He, your words

just gave more meaning to the soup making.

Making soup

is a type of attitude towards life.

Old fire soup

has the nutrition of a tonic

and the taste of a savory soup.

So you won't go wrong

if you follow my recommendations.

Thank you, Mr. He.

You've done me a great favor.

My hobby

is eating and playing.

Miss Su, if you don't mind,

why don't you add me as a friend?

It'll be more convenient for us to contact each other in the future.

Sure.

The soup you make

is not just food

that can fill up your tummy,

it's also a way of

expressing your affection.

So a soup is more than just a soup.

It represents your love as well.

So that's the case.

It smells nice.

Were you referring to the soup or me?

Both.

On account of your sweet words,

I'll let you have a try.

I mean the soup.

Why did you kiss me?

Xie Yi,

let me ask you.

If...

I'm saying if,

a person who's important

to you

has done something to hurt you,

what will you do?

Of course, I won't forgive him.

Didn't you hear of this before?

Love well, whip well.

Wait.

Li Ze Liang,

why did you ask me that?

Speak.

Did you do something bad

behind my back?

I didn't.

Really?

Really.

Come here.

Raise your arms.

I'm going to see if you're lying.

If you lie to me,

your heartbeat will betray you.

Ask me then.

Who's the woman you love the most?

Su Xie Yi.

In the future, no matter what it is,

you won't deceive me,

am I right?

As long as I know the truth behind them,

I won't deceive you.

So,

do you want a son

or a daughter?

I want both.

Strange.

Your heartbeat is getting faster.

Speak.

Did you lie to me?

I'm sure you want a daughter.

Everyone wants

another little lover.

I did lie to you.

It's because I want more than just two children.

I want enough children

to form a football team.

You're so greedy.

- I'm not that free. - Sit properly.

We don't need to rush.

Let's take our time.

Let's start with

the goalkeeper.

After that, we can give birth

to the strikers,

the defensive midfielders,

and the left midfielders.

After that, we'll...

If not, a basketball team works as well.

(Ms. Shi,)

(this morning, someone published an article)

(anonymously.)

(It mentioned)

(Huo Jian selling fake wine and artwork)

(when he was)

(the chairman.)

(And in the article,)

(the Lantian Bay project was mentioned specifically.)

(He said he has)

(the project cost estimation list of the Lantian Bay project.)

(From the list,)

(it states)

(that our company plans to use artificial hot water)

(instead of hot spring water)

(to gain maximum profit.)

(And he condemns us)

(for deceiving the consumers.)

Xie Yi,

let's go.

Yan,

we're in trouble.

Currently, our industry

and the public have known about this.

The group's share price is plummeting.

Now, the shareholders

are debating whether

to acknowledge the news.

We have to acknowledge it.

If we tell one lie,

we need to create more lies

to compensate for them.

In the end, it'll only ruin

our company's image and trust.

That's what I thought as well.

Plenty of press is outside our company.

We need to come out

with a PR solution as soon as possible.

The best solution

is to prevent it

before it happens.

As for the fake wine,

we've corrected it internally.

As for the clients

(Fake Wine Client List) who had bought those fake wines,

I've listed them down

and contacted them.

Although we've only

compensated some of the clients just yet,

this is enough

to prove our sincerity.

With this compensation list,

I hope

it can at least produce some positive effects.

But the main point

isn't the fake wine and artwork.

It's the Lantian Bay project.

This project is vital

to Ocean Hotel.

I know that.

I will think of a way to clarify it.

Ms. Shi,

please arrange for a press conference.

Okay.

There's one more thing.

He Jiang Hua said

an anonymous person

leaked the news to him.

The information that was leaked was accurate and detailed.

Does that mean

we have a spy among us?

That's possible.

After the press conference,

I wish to hold an internal review.

I must find out

the identity of the person

who leaked the information.

Okay.

Let me assist you.

It's done.

Later, I'll ask the Housekeeping Department

to send you an air purifier.

I noticed

that your nose was irritated.

If I wish to provide him with clues,

first, I need to know who he is.

Speaking of which,

Miss Su,

you met He Jiang Hua

in the hotel, right?

I did meet him before.

But I only regarded

him as an ordinary customer.

And everything I did,

I did it to protect the company's image.

Ms. Shi, are you suspecting me?

I'm taking the matter on its merits.

I'm just analyzing the situation.

You don't need to be anxious and refute my statement.

Alright.

Chu Chu,

I believe

this is a misunderstanding.

Our current priority

is to hold a press conference

and clarify

that Huo Jian was behind the old proposal.

At the same time, we need to announce our new proposal.

Okay.

I'll go and prepare now.

Yan,

I really met him by pure coincidence

on that day.

I didn't know

his true identity.

Don't take it to heart.

People are talking about this.

Ms. Shi,

she's under huge pressure as well.

I believe in you.

I will resolve this.

(Hello, Mr. He.)

(I'm Su Xie Yi,)

(the friend you added in the bookstore last time.)

(Are you free to talk right now?)

(Mr. He,)

(I saw what you wrote online.)

(There are many misunderstandings.)

(I hope I have the chance)

(to explain the situation to you personally.)

(If you're too busy to meet up with me,)

(I hope)

(we can communicate through the phone for now.)

(He Jiang Hua)

This is amazing.

The press conference has produced immediate results.

The share price of Ocean Hotel has been stabilized.

But,

we just initiated

the Lantian Bay project,

and someone leaked this news to the press.

Don't you think

it's too much of a coincidence?

Precisely.

But that He Jiang Hua said

someone tipped him off

anonymously.

Who do you think that person is?

An anonymous tip-off?

Who cares?

If we find out his identity,

he'll be fired.

What an ingrate.

I can't understand why.

Very good.

Strike while the iron is hot,

we should publish the articles

that we had prepared before.

That's right.

We need to try our best

to reverse public opinion.

Alright, that's it.

(Vice-chairman)

(Jessica: Ms. Shi,)

(Who tipped off He Jiang Hua?) (check the post)

(RT tipped off He Jiang Hua) (on the forum.)

(This is huge.)

(These people are too free.)

(They have too much free time on their hands.)

(What has it got to do with me?)

(I'm just concerned about the validity)

(of the content.)

(Ocean Hotel has always been)

(my favorite hotel.)

(This is so disappointing.)

(I'm an avid reader)

(of Hotel World.)

(The chief editor, He Jiang Hua, is a man of great taste.)

(I've been following him on his social accounts.)

(That's right.)

(I saw him)

(in the bookstore last time.)

(Back then, he was chatting)

(with a beautiful girl.)

I did meet him before.

But I thought

he was just an ordinary customer.

And everything I did,

I did it to protect the company's image.

Ms. Shi, are you suspecting me?

Xie Yi.

Yan.

You're back?

How's the situation?

I had called the shareholders

just now.

Everyone is satisfied

with the result of the press conference.

That's good to hear.

Su Xie Yi,

when will you stop pretending?

Ms. Shi,

I can explain this.

Explain what?

Explain why you leaked our information

to He Jiang Hua?

Since there are pictures of you and him,

there's no way for you to deny it.

Calm down for now.

Let's return to our office.

We can clarify any misunderstandings

over there.

No need for that.

Let's make things clear

right now.

Fine.

Speak.

That day, I went to buy some soup cookbooks.

I did meet He Jiang Hua

coincidentally.

He is very knowledgeable when it comes to soup.

That's why

I asked him some questions.

You meet him by accident twice in a row?

What a coincidence indeed.

Why would you check your phone

if you only asked him questions?

Or, were you

trying to leak our secrets?

We were just adding each other on social media.

Fine then.

Call him right now

and ask him to prove your innocence.

(He Jiang Hua)

I have tried to contact him since this morning.

But he hasn't replied yet.

That means you have no witness to prove your innocence.

I think the so-called

"adding each other on social media"

is a story

you came up with.

Mr. Shi.

Chairman Li,

I, Shi Chu Chu,

do not mess around.

He Jiang Hua said

someone approached him and tipped him off

about our company.

That means the person

must exist.

Now, we have evidence

that Su Xie Yi had met him

in private.

And,

the proposal for the Lantian Bay project,

you left it at home, right?

That means

no one else has the chance

to make contact with it,

except for Su Xie Yi.

With those two points,

the truth has been proved.

Ms. Shi,

I've already explained it to you.

We just had an exchange

about soups.

I even made notes of his suggestions.

If you don't believe me,

I can show it to you.

Besides that,

we didn't talk about anything else.

Su Xie Yi,

do you even believe

in your own words?

Ms. Shi,

I believe in Xie Yi.

That night,

Xie Yi did buy some soup cookbooks

and studied them at home.

I've read her notes as well.

I can testify

for her.

What about the proposal for the Lantian Bay project?

Can you be sure that she hasn't seen it before?

Yes.

Although you didn't see it,

that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Now, there's no evidence

to prove her innocence.

But you have no evidence

to prove that it's Su Xie Yi.

Am I right?

Ze Liang,

both you and I know

why Su Xie Yi joined Ocean Hotel in the first place.

Ms. Shi!

Don't you think

there are many points of doubt

in this case?

Fine.

If you don't want me to say it here,

I'll keep quiet.

But I hope you can be sober.

This is not the time

for you to act emotionally.

I'm very sober.

Let me ask you this.

Why did He Jiang Hua

meet Su Xie Yi twice in a row?

And why did

he mention that someone tipped him off

deliberately?

And at this timing,

why would someone post pictures

of them seeing each other online?

And it was a clear shot as well.

When you add everything together,

don't you think

someone is trying to frame her?

You're just trying

to cover up for her.

Ms. Shi,

this is not the time for you to be emotional.

If this took place in the past,

I'm sure you could

reveal the truth

behind the points of doubt.

Now, it's my problem?

Fine.

I do need to calm down.

I've been too exhausted lately.

I need to take a long break.

You want evidence, right?

I'll find them eventually.

Yan.

Let's talk in the office.

Yan,

I did read the proposal

for the Lantian Bay project.

Why did you deny it just now?

It's because I trust you.

I don't want people

to slander or suspect you.

You don't suspect me at all?

Xie Yi.

If we can't even

trust each other on this matter,

how can we spend the rest of our life together?
