[Never-Ending Summer]

[Episode 20]

Hello?

Why haven't I heard from you

all afternoon?

I fell asleep.

I'll be discharged tomorrow.

I know.

Come pick me up.

Okay.

[Inpatient Building]

Can you do it?

Of course I can.

I always trim

my own hair.

Don't worry.

I can definitely do it.

Your hair is too long.

Don't you find it annoying that it's covering your eyes?

It's bit annoying indeed.

I think

you'd look good with long hair, too.

I don't want that.

It's too much trouble.

Don't blow your bangs.

Come on.

I'll sweep the hair away

later.

How is it?

Does it look good?

These are your little hair clippings.

What are they for?

Keeping them as souvenirs?

Let's go downstairs and sunbathe.

Okay.

Let me untie it for you.

After I'm discharged tomorrow,

you can be

with your boyfriend every day.

Are you happy?

Are you happy?

There's a more

beautiful place ahead.

You haven't been here before, right?

I really haven't been here before.

It's so beautiful.

It's fine.

I can do this.

I told you we should come out for a walk.

Lu Xixiao.

Let's...

play hide and seek.

Okay?

You want to play hide and seek?

Why do you suddenly want to play

hide and seek?

Do you remember

what I told you before?

[Welcome to Grammy Music Bar]

Drink slowly.

Thank you!

Don't drink too much. Okay?

Drink slowly.

Well...

I understand you're in a bad mood.

You've just recovered.

Can you drink less?

In a relationship,

having an argument is quite normal.

Just butter her up a bit.

Wait a few days

till you both calm down,

and then just go butter her up.

Gu Meng and I are like this, too.

Good evening, everyone.

My name is Lin Na.

I'd like to sing a song

and dedicate it to someone.

He happens to be here today.

And tonight

happens to be a Sunday night.

-Are you alright? -So I'd like to sing a song called...

"A Date on Sunday Night."

[Welcome to Grammy Music Bar]

It's dedicated to

Lu Xixiao.

Do you know her?

She seems to be from Yangming, too.

Lu Xixiao.

I know you don't know me.

[Lu Xixiao, this is the money you lent me. I don't think it's enough.]

[But this is all I have now.]

However...

[I'll return the rest to you later.]

I've had a crush on you for a long time.

So,

would you like to go on a date with me?

A date! A date! A date!

A date! A date! A date!

A date! A date! A date!

No, no. Thanks, thanks.

No need.

Thank you. Thanks.

Sure.

Come on. Let's go.

Let's go home.

You're drunk.

Come on.

Let's go home.

[Slow down, Xiaoliu.]

[From now on, I'm your sister. Call me Sister.]

[Don't try to establish a relationship with it.]

[You're so handsome.]

[I thought it'd be fun to date you.]

[This is so boring.]

[The end.]

So you can't endure it already?

I think he's even more interesting now.

[Big Ocean Motorcycle Workshop]

There's also a cardboard box

that has arrived with Xiaoliu.

Why did you carry it over here?

This parcel is for you.

You have to deal with

your own stuff by yourself.

Xiaoliu.

What's wrong? Are you thirsty?

Let's go.

A package from Yicheng?

Did you go traveling?

I went out for a trip

some time ago

and left something in the guesthouse.

The owner insisted on sending it to me.

I'm going to throw it away.

[Lu Xixiao's Review Key Points and Compilation of Past Exam Questions]

Notes for reviewing?

Are you going to review lessons?

[This kind of question is very tricky. Read the questions carefully.]

Your handwriting is so delicate.

It looks like a girl's.

[Big Ocean Motorcycle Workshop]

Don't touch things that aren't yours.

Okay?

I'm sorry.

Are you angry?

You may go first.

Then I'm leaving now.

Let me see you off.

If you have something to say, just say it.

Let's stop seeing each other.

Give me a reason.

I'm just a bit tired.

You know what?

You're nothing special.

-that have the least amount. -So what?

So what?

How could you only offer 10 yuan?

That's ridiculous.

How could you only offer 10 yuan?

100 yuan.

Today, I'm going to

buy this wind turbine system.

Which of you will sell it?

How dare you offer that?

I-I-I need to take a call.

I need to take a call.

I'll be right back.

Yeah.

It's a bit of a buzzkill when we're out here for fun.

Exactly.

Who wants it?

I want it.

20 yuan.

I'll pay 100 yuan.

I've told you I'll pay 100 yuan.

Hello, Mom.

Yan.

When will you come back?

Mom, what did you say?

It's too noisy.

I didn't hear you clearly just now.

When will you come back for the National Day holiday?

Mom.

I won't go back

during the holiday.

How about I buy you the train ticket?

Have you bought your train ticket?

Mom.

Just let me live alone from now on.

Exactly.

It's a bit of a buzzkill when we're out here for fun.

Who wants it?

I want it.

Morning, Coach.

Morning.

Mr. Niu.

Ms. Zhou Wan has said that

although the rival company

is not as famous as our Boxing,

they've handled quite a few large projects.

We can't underestimate them.

What? Didn't they just handle

two pastoral-town projects?

What are you nervous about?

You look as if you've never experienced such big occasions.

But Ms. Zhou Wan has also said that

the rival company operates with

e-commerce platforms and brand marketing

simultaneously.

They are very competitive.

Alright.

That's just to reduce costs

indirectly.

What do you know?

You always make a fuss about nothing.

Ms. Zhou Wan has also said...

Zhou Wan, Zhou Wan...

Don't always talk about Zhou Wan.

Is she the manager or am I?

I wonder

whether Zhou Wan has fed you any potions.

You always trust and listen to her blindly.

Besides...

Let me tell you.

I've been in this industry

longer than Zhou Wan has been alive.

The Bid Presentation Meeting is about to start.

Where is Zhou Wan?

I'll call her right now.

Hurry up.

How dare she even be late for the Bid Presentation Meeting?

That top student

is really putting on airs.

What are you nervous about?

What are you nervous about?

Why are you nervous?

Hurry up! Keep looking for her!

I'm old now.

I'm no match for you guys anymore.

Good shot!

I still can't get in touch with her.

From today onwards,

Zhou Wan is no longer

our Boxing's employee.

Mr. Zhang Jr. is here.

Later,

this proposal presentation...

[Boxing Construction]

well, w-will be entrusted to you.

I...

-I really can't do it. -That's it.

Mr. Niu.

-You can definitely do it. -Mr. Niu.

Hurry up.

Mr. Niu, you've been in this industry

much longer than I have.

I'll give you a promotion and a pay raise.

[Xingrong Construction]

[Wantuo Real Estate]

[Project Cooperation Proposal Presentation and Communication Seminar]

Shall we begin?

Let's begin.

Wantuo Group's

[Boxing Construction]

Bid Presentation Meeting for the West Coast Town Project

begins now.

[Xingrong Construction]

Wantuo Group.

We're from Boxing Construction.

Miss,

you play really well.

As for that shot of yours just now,

even if the opponent could catch it,

he probably wouldn't be able to hit it back.

Thank you.

I've long heard that

you are the real master, Mr. Zhang.

You can surely see through

these small tricks of mine.

You know me?

How about

we play a round together?

I'm here to look for you indeed.

We can have a tennis match anytime.

But Wantuo Group's

West Coast Town Project

will fail at the last stage

after today.

[Xingrong Construction]

[Boxing Construction]

[Evaluator, Wantuo Real Estate]

[Wantuo Real Estate]

[Project Cooperation Proposal Presentation and Communication Seminar]

[Result of the Comparison]

Now I announce that

our Wantuo Group's

[Evaluator, Wantuo Real Estate]

[Xingrong Construction]

West Coast Town Project

will ultimately be entrusted to

[Boxing Construction]

[Evaluator, Wantuo Real Estate]

Xingrong...

[Xingrong Construction]

[Boxing Construction]

Do you have any manners? Hey...

Mr. Zhang.

Dad, you...

Why are you here, Dad?

Zhou Wan.

Take a look.

And you guys, too.

How did you do the background checks?

After this is over,

all of you have to come to my office!

If you want to quit your job,

just tell me.

I'll write a report.

I announce that

the West Coast Town Project

will be entrusted to Boxing Construction.

[Xingrong Construction]

What?

How can that be?

Why?

Isn't it quite embarrassing?

Did you do something special,

Ms. Zhou Wan?

The rival company lost a lawsuit the day before yesterday.

Their building was rated as dangerous.

Why didn't you tell me

such an important matter?

Their company wasn't the primary defendant.

The construction quality was fine,

but the real estate developer added an unauthorized extension,

which implicated them.

That's not really a stain on their record.

[Boxing Construction]

If it were Mr. Zhang Jr.,

he would think the same as you.

But Mr. Zhang Sr. is different.

In the past few years,

he has been getting ready to retire.

He values reputations the most right now.

The rival company was afraid of being discovered,

so they concealed the case.

But Mr. Zhang Sr. just thought

[Boxing Construction]

they had lost basic integrity.

He feared there might be hidden dangers in their future cooperation.

You can always handle things properly,

Ms. Zhou Wan.

You should have told us earlier.

I only got the materials this morning,

so I went to see

Mr. Zhang Sr. at the last minute.

However, Mr. Niu,

with you being in charge here,

it was certainly not a big problem.

As your deputy,

I should solve problems for you

and add the finishing touch to your work.

[Boxing Construction]

Let me do it.

Well, over these years,

to some extent, you've learnt a lot

as my subordinate.

But after this,

the Lanyue

Resort Project

is the top priority. Just after this...

When it comes to rewards and punishments, I'm quite impartial.

Whatever happens by that time,

just work hard,

and everything can be discussed properly.

After you.

Thank you, Mr. Niu.

You're welcome.

I'll take a day off tomorrow.

Ms. Zhou Wan.

Since you joined the company,

you've never asked for a leave.

Why are you asking for a leave today?

I need to pick someone up at the airport.

Um?

Who's this person that makes you even

want to miss the celebration party?

Someone important.

I'm at the exit.

Have you gotten off the shuttle bus?

As soon as you come out,

you'll be able to see me right away.

[Int'l & Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan Arrivals]

I'm carrying my luggage

and walking out.

To celebrate my success in getting

Wantuo's project

and to celebrate your return,

you can pick whatever you want for dinner tonight.

It's so simple, huh?

Are you fobbing me off?

Then what do you want?

Aren't you tired after this whole flight?

Am I tired?

I'm a bit tired indeed.

But we still have to

handle the important stuff first,

right?

I can see you now.

I can see you, too.

Welcome back,

Senior.

You sound so distant calling me Senior.

Mr. Jiang.

[Int'l & Hong Kong/Macau/Taiwan Arrivals]

Let's go.

Let's go. What do you want to eat tonight?

My treat.

[Welcome Chinese Picasso Back to China with Glory!]

How is it?

Are you surprised?

-Is it unexpected? -What exactly are you doing?

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

What exactly are you doing?

I've been running around for you in China and abroad,

taking care of both your career and life.

So you just hit me as soon as we met?

Put it away. Put it away at once.

Eddie.

Hello.

Long time no see.

Long time no see.

I'm going to change my manager.

Do you even have any humanity?

-Carry the suitcase. -Lu Xixiao.

Thank you so much.

You came all the way from France.

Come on.

Don't mention it.

We've worked together so many times.

We're family now.

Well,

that's why I got to count on you this time for the exhibition.

Stop chatting.

What will we eat later?

What will we eat?

Didn't you say you would treat me to a big meal?

[Unchangeable Fate]
