(Actually, everyone has their own struggles.)

(Sometimes letting others go is how you free yourself.)

(I'm done with the pep talk.)

(I just want to know)

(she already had a boyfriend before she met me,)

(so why pretended to like me?)

(Two years together.)

(It hurts so much.)

♪We've walked through love's forbidden zones♪

You're here.

You got an eight.

Look!

Look familiar?

Isn't that the traffic cop who stopped us last time?

It really is him.

These days, anyone can just walk into a shooting club.

Who knows?

To the restroom. I'll be back.

Hey, man. Why'd you stop shooting?

Since you're here,

let's have a match.

No, thanks.

Hey, don't rush off.

If you're not good, I can teach you.

Really, no need.

So you've got the guts to fine us,

but you're too chicken to compete?

Are you chickening out?

Chicken!

If you can't afford it,

I'll pay for you.

Pick any gun.

I'll play with you.

Got things to do.

Let's play next time.

Talk to me.

What's bothering you?

What's going on?

You're not yourself today.

Some things just can't be controlled, no matter how hard you try.

Just like shooting.

Even if you aim, you might miss.

Business troubles?

I don't understand business,

but it feels a lot like relationships sometimes.

You chase someone forever, only to end up empty-handed.

So if something isn't meant for you,

would you let it go?

Yes. If I knew it was impossible,

and it was best for them,

I would.

You wouldn't shoot even it's targeted?

What's wrong with you today?

You're not like me.

What could you want that you can't have?

Is there someone you can't let go of?

One more round.

- To Xiaojue's smooth studies. - To Xiaojue's smooth studies.

Don't go changing your heart once you're in England.

Or I'll fly straight there and hunt you down.

Xiaojue,

Mengmeng must have been just joking.

We all know you'd never change.

But after you go to England,

you have to write to me.

Okay. And you have to take good care of yourself too.

Don't worry.

I'll miss you so much over there.

And I'll worry about you.

Tiehan, Mengmeng.

We're all classmates.

After I go abroad,

I leave Huan'er in your care.

Don't worry.

It's okay.

I can take care of myself.

No!

What I mean is,

I want you to keep an eye on her.

Don't let anyone steal you away.

How could I?

No one could.

If you don't eat the peanuts,

I'll take them.

Stop eating.

Eat the dishes first.

Xiaojue,

try this.

Have a taste.

I hear England doesn't have good food.

Eat as much as you can now.

We haven't parted yet,

and I already miss you.

Me too.

Not eating this? I'll take it.

You eat more too.

You Silly Goose! If I don't call you,

you won't call me, will you?

All you do is avoiding me every day.

Just avoid me!

(Incoming Call: Silly Goose)

Hello?

Hello? Mengmeng.

Are you free tomorrow?

Yes.

Good. Let's meet at school tomorrow.

Not back for a long time.

Let's go look around.

Okay.

Silly Goose, that's not what I meant.

You're the best, the sweetest.

Love you.

(Dear friend,)

(I'll be here 24/7 to solve your problems.)

(Yunsheng Tower)

Miss Lin, come with me.

Mr. Fang.

Mr. Gao, why are you here?

I'm here

mainly to invite Miss Lin

to oversee marketing for Letao's upcoming women's product line.

Letao and Yunsheng will continue collaborating.

We'll even add 3 percent to the commission.

Plus, Miss Lin will handle all liaisons for Letao.

No problem.

I've already had the contract drafted.

Could you perhaps ask the actual person involved?

Are you willing?

No.

Yes, absolutely!

She must be willing.

I'll remove Miss Lin's workstation now.

No!

You're burning bridges.

You're basically kidnapping, get it?

Did I?

I'm taking her.

Absolutely.

You did.

- Take her away right now. - You did.

Take her this instant!

No way.

Take her away now!

- What boss are you? - You must take her!

Pleasure doing business.

Don't worry about it.

I'll have someone move your workstation right away.

Pleasure working with you.

Hu Tiehan.

You arrived so early?

I'm on duty this afternoon.

Let's go.

Remember the first time we spoke?

Not really.

It hasn't even been that long.

But understandable.

All you cared about back then were sports.

No surprise you forgot.

Well, Hu...

My name is Hu Tiehan.

Hu Tiehan.

I might hold you back in the sports meet.

It's fine.

Need more practice.

Sorry about that.

No worries. Keep going.

We barely interacted before.

Worried we wouldn't sync well.

But we actually have good chemistry.

We must win this sports meet.

Is winning really that important?

Of course.

Either do it properly,

or don't do it at all.

These days,

let's keep practicing after class.

Okay.

By the way, Mengmeng.

How's Huan'er and Xiaojue lately?

What do you mean?

Hasn't Huan'er mentioned anything?

She rarely talks about Xiaojue now.

Probably swamped with work.

Leaves early, and comes home late.

Why ask?

Did Xiaojue contact you?

No.

Nothing. Just curious.

Hu Tiehan,

you didn't ask me out just for this, right?

Couldn't you have called instead?

No.

Mengmeng, you know.

Xiaojue asked me to look out for her before he left.

Okay.

I knew it. You only call when you need something.

Let's make the most of our time then.

Don't you have duty soon?

Mr. Gao arranged it.

This is your desk.

Thank you.

A new colleague Mr. Gao arranged?

Did you get wind of this?

No.

Hey.

Should we go say hello then?

Let's go.

Hello,

(Zhao Jia) I'm Zhao Jia.

(Qian Bing) Hello, I'm Qian Bing.

(Sun Yi) Hello, I'm Sun Yi.

Jia, Yi, Bing?

Your NPC names seem a bit random, don't they? How imaginative.

Miss Lin.

Yes.

Mr. Gao said the marketing plan you did earlier was excellent.

Just needs a few tweaks.

He's already noted them.

Got it. I'll revise it this afternoon.

Here's the related information and product samples.

Review it and provide a revised plan by the end of today.

Go, go, go!

Mr. Gao.

I'm done with today's work.

Need me to bring you some supper?

Sure.

The usual?

Wait.

Luo, I'll leave first.

Appreciate it.

Thanks.

But I've almost finished the tasks Mr. Gao assigned me.

Just a moment, I'll...

You're welcome.

Mr. Gao said the plan you made this afternoon is good.

But it needs a few adjustments.

He's marked them out.

Get it done tonight.

Good luck.

Wait.

Don't even ask.

I was absolutely slammed today.

My boss, I don't know what got into him today. He...

Can't talk now. I'm getting in the elevator.

You seemed very dissatisfied with me.

Not as much resentment as you harbor towards me.

Still, thanks for the wontons.

They taste a bit like the ones from that place

we ate at before.

Luo grabbed randomly.

No wonder.

The taste isn't quite the same.

Really?

Yes, it's perfectly normal.

Yesterday's wontons and today's wontons

can't possibly taste exactly identical.

Just like people.

Someone might be fine yesterday,

but suddenly start acting so harsh today.

What do you mean?

Mr. Gao, aren't you heading home?

What else would I be doing?

I thought you were waiting for someone.

You didn't press the button.

Got it.

Boss, let me press it for you.

(Huan'er, I bought supper.)

(Let's eat together at home.)

(No, thanks.)

(I already ate at the office.)

By the way, can I expense the cab fare?

You're back.

Listen.

This Gao Haiming...

He must have some weird fetish.

He just loves tormenting people.

What did he do?

He's tormenting me.

He tried so hard to transfer me to Letao,

right next to him,

just to make it easier to torment me.

He wants me to work myself to death.

Well, that's a relief.

Tiehan actually asked me about you and Xiaojue today.

What did he ask?

Just how you are doing lately,

and if you've been arguing.

I felt you've been getting a bit close to Gao Haiming recently.

But now, it seems

he's exploiting you so hard,

so I feel much better.

Have a drink.

Mengmeng,

why do you like Hu Tiehan so much?

He doesn't even treat you well.

He treats me very well.

You don't know.

Zhu Mengmeng.

What do you want?

I have money. Take it.

Don't.

It'll be endless then.

What do you mean?

Playing the hero, huh?

Maybe he sees that Zhu Mengmeng is rich and wants to borrow some too.

I'm warning you. Don't cause trouble.

We're doing it anyway.

What?

Mr. Zhang?

I won't let you off the hook!

Thank you.

It's okay. Glad you're safe.

Let me walk you home.

Will they cause trouble for you later?

I'm not afraid.

Let's go.

Isn't playing the hero a bit cliché,

Mengmeng?

Huan'er!

Fine.

As long as you like it.

Mengmeng,

why is this hydrating mist here?

My friend brought it back from England.

England?

(He's targeting me like this.)

(Could it be because he's jealous?)

(Maybe I should test it.)

Do you want it? I can get you a new one.

No. Just lend me this one for a day.

Sure.

Morning, Mr. Gao.

Mr. Gao.

Morning.

Mr. Gao.

Morning.

Morning, Mr. Gao.

Morning.

Huan'er,

what's this?

Hydrating mist.

My friend from England gave it to me.

It works really well. Try it.

Isn't it just a hydrating mist?

It isn't necessarily that...

Did I talk to you?

Sir, call me if you need anything.

Is Mr. Huang coming back from Hong Kong, China today?

Yes.

Tell him to call me. Bring something for me.

Bring what?

Did I allow you to ask?

(Letao Tower)

It's for you.

From who?

Did I allow you to ask?

Scrap the old one.

(Bought so much? Planning to bathe in it?)

(Is he trying to charm me to death?)

Well, dear colleagues.

It's from my friend.

A whole box. Everyone gets one.

Here you go.

- Thanks, Huan'er. - Thanks, Huan'er.

- Nothing. - You're so generous.

It's high-end.

We rarely see it usually.

Take it.

Thank you, Huan'er.

Hello?

Starting tomorrow,

you'll replace Luo as my special assistant.

Pick me up for work at 7 AM.

Mr. Gao?

You know my home address very well.

One minute late, and I'll deduct a full day's pay.

Fine.

But it's already very late, so...

Hello?

Playing games, huh?

Alright then.

Miss Lin, you can wait inside.

I'll call Mr. Gao down.

It's okay.

Don't tell him.

He can come down anytime.

I'll wait here.

I'm not rushing him at all.

Okay, wait a moment.

Mr. Gao.

Miss Lin is waiting outside.

She seems rushed.

I see.

Morning, Mr. Gao.

Morning.

Let's go. Head out.

Wait.

This bowtie of yours

isn't tied very well.

Let me tie it again for you.

Okay.

I've tied you an Eldredge knot.

This knot might look a bit exaggerated.

But since your suit today is quite understated,

and the tie is bold,

it balances things out perfectly.

How did you know it?

I specifically studied this.

Why would you study that?

Well...

Of course, it was for a certain man.

Not going to the office today.

No need to drive me.

I learned it especially for you.

That won't do?

Are you crazy?

(Why would you study that?)

Of course, it was for a certain man.

You're here, Huan'er.

Huan'er, why are you so late today?

All thanks to a certain someone.

When did he get here?

Mr. Gao?

He arrived super early this morning. Before nine, I think.

Really?

(What appointment?)

(He's targeting me.)

(Playing games with me, huh?)

(Fine, I'm done putting up with this.)

Are you sure?

Absolutely sure.

So much work and the cold shoulder.

Of course, she's overwhelmed.

Luo,

do you think Mr. Gao and Lin Huan'er are...

But it is really too much.

What are you doing?

Get back to work!

Sir,

on Lin Huan'er, are we being too...

It's all her fault.

(Email) (Ou Xiaojue?)

(Right, what does he look like?)

Mr. Gao, do you have any instructions?

Come with me.

(Finally, you lose patience, huh?)

Tiehan.

Come on. Grab a meal.

We finally wrapped things up.

No, thanks. You guys go ahead.

Everyone's waiting there.

Got things to do. You go.

Okay.

I'll head over first then.

Take care.

Okay.

(Mengmeng, have time? We need to talk.)

The atmosphere here is really quiet.

The food tastes good too.

Take a look. See what you like.

Okay.

(Snow Velvet Moon Gazing, 66 yuan)

Snow Velvet Moon Gazing is delicious.

(Eel Claypot Rice, 88 yuan) This Eel Claypot Rice is also good.

What's wrong?

Nothing you like to eat?

Should we try another?

No, no need. This place is fine.

Excuse me.

One Snow Velvet Moon Gazing, please.

And one Eel Claypot Rice, thank you.

Make that two.

Thanks.

Okay, please wait a moment.

Hu?

Mengmeng?

Huan'er?
