[Episode 4]

Why are you acting so sneaky?

Brother Xiu Zhe.

You're so early. Come in and have a cup of coffee.

Okay.

Are you all right? I'm going to call for a nurse for you.

Being obsessed with a man? Can you face Brother Xiu Zhe like this?

Come on.

Thank you.

Brother Xiu Zhe, since my sister is safe now,

I still want to go and visit my Mom in Chuantian City first.

Will you... go back to the branch store in Chuantian City?

What's wrong? Are you worried that you won't be able to find work once you go back?

Are you thinking of working in my store delivering orders?

Stop joking, I'm serious.

This...I was thinking that you'd be able to help me out if you were back in Chuantian City.

Do you still need someone to help you?

I think your boyfriend is quite capable.

He's capable? He's just...

He's not my boyfriend!

Then who's your boyfriend?

My boyfriend...

I'll tell you once the issue with my sister is solved.

All right. I've been keeping an eye on your sister's matters.

I'll let you know once there is news.

Sorry.

It's you?

Are you that unwilling to see me?

- Not really. - Why?

Just because you slept with me last night

and you're feeling embarrassed?

You...I...what do I have to be embarrassed about?

I'm the one who slept with you, okay?

What are you thinking about?

I was saying that you nearly killed me last night.

Do you not have any remorse?

Well...I can see that you're healthy and active right now.

Okay, okay. I won't bicker with you.

Let's go. Come with me.

Where are we going?

The thing that I promised you in the morning has been arranged.

I've said, that I won't owe you any favors.

You don't need to, I didn't take good care of you.

Why are you being polite with me? I'm leaving first.

Do you not want to earn money anymore?

I don't want to. Money is a materialistic item external to the body.

Young people need to have dreams, we shouldn't be blinded by money.

So I'm going to pursue my dreams now.

You're thinking quite optimistically now.

That's because Master taught me well.

Goodbye, Master.

Why are you following me?

I think that you're a talented person. Our company needs someone like you.

Me?

Talented person? Is your company closing down?

When are you going to stop following me?

Until you agree to work at our company.

My goodness. Why are you like this?

Hey, just go and have a look.

Maybe you'll change your mind after you go.

[W+S Corporation]

You're not really going to bring me here to work, are you?

How is it? It's your fiancé's company, do you not want to go in and take a look?

I remember now. You're working for him.

It's just that, would he agree with me coming here to work?

Do you have that kind of authority?

I am...the manager here.

Squeezing a small fry like you in is as easy as moving the tip of my finger.

Earning his money and then paying it back to him.

How did he exploit you

for you to do this to him?

Isn't it interesting?

Why do I think that your brain is a bit out of it?

All right, get in the car. I'll buy you lunch.

You'll start working officially tomorrow.

You've really arranged such a clear plan.

Do you really think I'm that obedient?

You're buying me lunch? At my house?

How bold of you!

Once a mistake is made, every step after that is wrong.

So I'll leave it that way.

No way. Even if you don't want to live anymore, I still do.

Please, I'm really hungry.

There's no use even if you say "please".

Listen to that, listen to that. I haven't eaten anything all day to find work for you.

He's not at home anyway.

I almost got killed by you.

We've known each other for such a long time now after all.

This can be our farewell meal.

Gui Yi won't tell on me for bringing another man home, will he?

This way.

Gui Yi. Gui Yi.

Sit here. Don't walk around, don't talk. Just sit down.

I'm going to go and cook. You're not allowed to move.

He had to come to my house to eat.

If we are found out, we both have to die.

I must hurry up and think of a way to get rid of him.

What should I cook?

This is too much trouble!

Professional at making instant noodles for twenty years.

Is there something missing?

Just because we're acquainted with each other, I'll add an egg to you.

How about add a side dish?

Look how nice I am to you.

Where did I put my mustard pickles from yesterday?

Mustard pickles, mustard pickles...

Where are my mustard pickles?

Where are my mustard pickles?

Here they are!

You scared me to death!

What's the relationship between you two?

- He and I? We— - Jin Chen asked me to tell you before that

h-he has no real feelings for you.

If you meet a good person, he will bless you.

I think that master is a good guy. Look, he is handsome

and nice. It's just like a treasure at home.

Even men would take a moment to appreciate him. And women would simply jump him without thinking!

- He is such a superb that you need to seize the opportunity. - No.

Gui Yi, you've served the Wen family for fifteen years, a gold medal steward.

You defected just like that?

Is it you who fell in love with my master?

How would that be possible?

I have Xiao Meng. I hit it off with you right from the start,

that's why I really want you to be well. Look at you.

Okay, thank you. I appreciate your good intentions.

- Just go back and rest and pretend you didn't see anything that happened today. - No.

- It's okay. - Go back. Go back.

Go, go. Go.

Jin Chen.

I talked to Xiao Yuan.

How was it? Did it work?

I've been digging through romance novels

and I've noticed a pattern.

Everyone around the female lead

has one thing in common.

They assist.

They assist?

They assist the main couple in advancing their affection.

From now on, I’m that role.

It's an elementary operation.

- Come to eat! - Coming!

Miss Xiao Yuan, let me help you. It's hot, be careful.

Look at this egg. It's full of love.

I've been cooking for years

and never made anything so soulful.

Eat.

So our friendship is only worth a bowl of instant noodles?

And a dish of mustard pickles. No more.

I won't eat it.

You're not hungry, right?

That's great. Gui Yi, see our guest out.

You want to kick me out of your house this much?

Are you afraid of being seen by the old man?

Gui Yi. Last night, this lady and I—

What are you trying to do?

Eat a meal and be full.

Okay.

I'll go cook you a meal

to fill you up!

Stuff yourself. Don't leave until you've finished eating.

You can't leave a bite.

Miss Xiao Yuan, you worked hard.

Calm down. Here, sit down.

I always thought you could only run fast, but I didn't expect your cooking to be fast too.

It's tasty. You're really strong in every area.

You have good taste.

Who did you learn cooking from?

My mom used to run a restaurant.

I learned by watching and listening.

So you don’t want to work in a company because you want to be a chef?

Exactly. My dream is to open a restaurant.

People take food as their heaven. This way, I'll have time to research delicacies.

I can even feed myself along the way.

I think feeding yourself is the key.

Right, didn't you invest in a lot of companies?

Why don't you invest in your own restaurant?

It's so boring to invest in that.

You have to do everything yourself.

How can you entrust your dream to someone else? Right, Gui Yi?

It makes sense.

What about you? What's your dream?

Same as yours.

- It's perfunctory. - It's true.

Whenever I'm very busy, I think about it.

If I could do what I like, it would be great.

Don't you like your current job?

Then you should quit.

- It's not as easy as you think. - Well,

I'll have to have a good talk with you then.

Listen, people only live for a few decades.

What if something happened to you one day and you got sick?

You must have fun while you can, got it?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I didn't mean to curse you, sorry.

I didn’t expect your outlook on life

to be quite consistent with mine.

Is it?

What kind of restaurant do you want to open?

I want to open a very, very small one.

A restaurant where guests can only eat what I want to serve.

Do you like to force others so much?

Hey.

How many chilies did you put in this dish?

Try it. It's my specialty. It's delicious.

I'd rather not try it.

What's the matter? Are you looking down on my cooking?

Miss Xiao Yuan, he may not be able to eat too much spicy food.

You can't eat spicy food?

Who says I can't eat spicy food? I love eating hot peppers.

How is it? Is it delicious?

It's not spicy at all.

Hurry up and serve the rice.

- Don't think that just because you're a guest, you can doing nothing. - I'll do it.

No, I can serve it.

- Hello? - Boss,

- I have something to report to you. - Say it.

I found out that your wife had booked a ticket for the high-speed train.

- Where is she going? - Chuantian City.

Why do you take so long to serve the rice?

You're not upset that I asked you to serve the rice, are you?

Could it be that you don't know how to open the rice cooker?

You can't! You can't even open a rice cooker, you!

- I help you. - Where are you going? - I–

I'll get you a spoon to serve rice.

Without my permission,

you can't go anywhere.

Master.

Will you allow me to serve the rice?

Go on.

Right.

- There is a firework show at night. Let's go together. - I can't. I have something tonight.

[Your train ticket has been canceled. Your money has been successfully refunded.]

- How did that happen? - Miss Xiao Yuan, what's the matter?

M-My online high-speed train ticket has been canceled for no reason!

Miss Xiao Yuan, that kind of thing isn't a big deal to him.

Why is he being so unreasonable?!

Didn't he tell me that he would give me his blessing? Why wouldn't he let me go?

That...

Money!

You still haven't paid him back yet, how could he let you go?

Didn't he give me his card?

- Don't you have so much integrity, that you were going to earn– - Can you not speak?

This chili chicken might be a bit too spicy. My stomach is suddenly–

Keep talking, I...I can't hold it in.

From what I think, just listen to some advice of mine.

We should earn his money at his company first,

then we can quickly leave.

You don't understand then.

If I really go to work for him,

what should I do if he becomes attracted to my good looks?

What should I do if he develops real feelings for me?

You're quite confident in yourself.

I am afraid that he would stop me.

Say, he's such an uncertain and hard to understand person.

If he suddenly breaks the agreement again,

I...what should I do then?

You're thinking too much. W+S is such a big company,

do you really think every person who enters needs to report to him?

Besides, he's not at the company often.

It seems if I don't sort this out, I really won't be able to leave then.

Stop thinking so much.

This is your quickest way to break the agreement so far.

[W+S Corporation]

[Manager Wen]

[CEO's Office]

[Manager's Office]

Did CEO Wen get demoted?

What are you blabbering about? Go to work.

All right, your work here is done. You can leave first.

Okay.

CEO Wen, hello.

Once we go upstairs later, don't ask anything and don't say anything.

Just mention your requests. I've already made arrangements for you.

Do managers have that much power?

I don't dare to speak about other places, but I still have some power in the personnel department.

Amazing.

- I'm heading in first then. - Work hard.

Let other people see how brilliant you are, genius girl.

[Personnel Department]

Okay, don't worry.

I will definitely satisfy all of her requests.

Okay, goodbye.

- Are you Manager Zhang? - Yes.

Hello, Manager Zhang. My name is–

Yuan Si Ya!

Yes. I came here today to interview for–

The manager's assistant.

I've been waiting for you for so long. I've already prepared the contract.

Here. Sign on this.

Later, when you go out, turn left at the reception desk and go upstairs,

you'll be at the Manager's office.

You've misunderstood.

I think I was interviewing for a receptionist job.

Is that so?

- Do you know how to type then? - Yes.

- Do you know how to make PowerPoint? - Yes.

- Do you know how to make meeting minutes? - Yes...a bit.

That's settled then. Such a brilliant talent!

If you work at the reception, you'll be letting down your talents.

Our Manager's assistant position needs a talent like you.

Here, here, here, stop thinking so much.

Hold the pen.

Here. Sign here.

No way. I don't have enough experience.

I should start from working at reception.

The salary of manager's assistant is much higher than a receptionist's.

That's fine. Let's go one step at a time.

That way, other people won't think I'm getting in by backdoor connections.

Take a look, that's what I was saying!

- I didn't expect this young lady to have such a realization. - What? Who is it?

The youth is to be regarded with respect.

All right then. Since you've made your mind up, I'll agree to it.

Thank you, Manager.

That...I have a small request.

I don't know if I should say it or not.

Say it. Say it, say it. Say whatever you have to say.

- Can my salary be paid daily? - Da–

No problem.

Don't mention daily payment, if your daily performance has a full score,

you can have extra bonuses.

That's great!

- Thank you, Manager. - Welcome.

Wait a slight moment. I'm going to swap out the contract.

Okay, okay. Thank you.

Don't people say that it's hard to land a job these days?

Is work this easy to find?

[You have a new message]

It's sorted out. Thank you.

- CEO Wen. - Where is she?

She's working at reception.

Didn't I tell you to give her a manager's assistant position?

I-I was just doing as you asked.

You told me to satisfy all of her requests.

- Idiot. - Whatever she wants to do–

Did I do something wrong?

I didn't.

- Should I put this here? - Yes.

- All right. - Wow, you're so good. Are you new?

Yeah. I started today.

You're so small in stature but you have so much power. Here, have some water.

From now on, just let me do the heavy-lifting work.

- Okay, thank you. - Okay, no problem.

[W+S Corporation]

- Manager Zhang, hello. - Hello.

- Miss Xiao Yuan. - Manager Zhang.

Here, this is your salary for today. It's a total of ¥300. (T/N: approx. $46.26)

On top of that, there is an extra ¥100 for your working one hour overtime.

- It's all inside. - Thank you.

Oh, right. If you want to work full shifts on the weekend,

the salary and bonus will double.

You've been troubled to bring this over to me. I can go over and get it next time.

Why are you being courteous with me?

Think of me as your friend from now on, just tell me anything if there are any matters.

- Okay, okay. - All right, keep working.

- Bye-bye, Manager. - Bye-bye.

Don't people say that employees at corporations are all scheming against each other?

It seems everyone is filled with kindness.

How generous.

It seems Master has power in his words.

He really didn't lie to me.

I've finished work!

To thank you for your help, I've decided to use today's salary to treat you to dinner.

You know how to pick your time. I'm usually really busy during this time,

but I happen to have some free time today.

Wen Jun, go and get me another suit.

Are you going to meet a client? But there is nothing scheduled for tonight.

I told you to get it, so go get it.

Wait.

Look, is there anything else wrong?

Perfection.

Go quickly, go quickly.

Hi, I'm a student at the nearby university and I'm a freshman in the finance department,

I'm Yuan Si Ya.

I want to talk to you about a collaboration.

- What collaboration? - It's like this.

My classmates and I are organizing an online celebrity brokerage company.

There are already more than a hundred people.

We have a number of creations that have passed hundreds of thousands of likes.

Hello?

Please, continue.

[On graduation day, see you at our old place Cool Cigar & Whisky Bar. This was our three year promise, I've also waited three years to say it, I can finally say it now.]

Here are the security footage that we got.

On the 28th of last month,

Miss Yuan indeed appeared in Wenda City.

Who is the guy?

I didn't find out.

- See you tomorrow, bye-bye. - A big man is so slow,

it's been half an hour and he still hasn't come down.

- Hello, Brother Xiu Zhe? - Yue Yue,

what should I do?

What 'what should you do'?

Did you drink?

I feel terrible.

Why can't I do anything? Why?

I'm just useless!

Stop talking first, tell me where you are and I'll find you.

Sir, drive.

[Cigar & Whisky Bar]

Brother Xiu Zhe!

Why did you drink so much liquor?

Si Ya, you finally came!

You drank too much, I'm Yue Yue.

I'll send you home.

Right... I'm so stupid.

Why would she come?

What exactly is wrong?

Nothing. You came at the perfect time, let's drink another.

Let me send you back first. Let's drink when we get home, okay?

- Get up. - No, I'll drink here! - Brother Xiu Zhe.

This woman who takes public transport everywhere she goes, actually voluntarily took a taxi to this bar for this guy.

- Get up quickly! - Return home to drink?

Do you have other plans after drinking?

- Why did you come? - Didn't you say you were going to treat me to a meal?

I didn't say I wouldn't treat you, it's just...can we do another day?

- Si Ya, I won't allow you to eat a meal with another guy. - Don't move!

- Don't move around. - Brother Xiu Zhe!

Hey!

Let go of me! What are you doing?

Brother Xiu Zhe! Let go of me.

Let go of me!

Let go of me!

Can you stop being so overbearing?

I can be even more overbearing.

Today was my fault, I shouldn't have stood you up.

But can you stand in someone else's shoes a little?

He drank too much, what if something happens to him?

Is he that important to you?

Of course he's very important!

If something happened to your friend, would you not care about them?

I know you're not an annoying person,

but next time you do something,

if it has something to do with me, can you ask for my opinion first?

You think you're right, I also think I'm right,

we can't communicate if we're like this. We have to think from each others' perspectives!

- I– - Everybody are friends,

why don't we both send Brother Xiu Zhe home, okay?

Not okay, who's friends with him?

I just knew it's useless to talk reason with you.

I'll let Lin Wen Jun send him home.

- Where are you going? - I'm hungry so I'm going to find a place to eat, okay?

I'm hungry too.

Here's a toast!

You want to eat this? This place doesn't look hygienic at all.

Let's go. I'll treat you to something else.

No. The squid soaked in formalin tastes so good here. (T/N: a water solution used as antiseptic, disinfectant)

And the sour and spicy rice noodles cooked in slop oil. I can eat two bowls at a time.

And I think the lamb skewers are made of dead rat meat.

But they are especially fragrant and delicious!

You're also afraid of something.

Sir!

- Ten lamb skewers, and five cauliflower skewers. - Okay.

- And two bottles of beer. - Okay, coming right up.

Why did you order beer?

You said. The lamb skewers are made with dead rat meat.

Drink a glass of beer to kill germs. What?

Are you afraid of getting drunk and taking advantage of me?

Cheers!

Hey. When did you start behaving like a lady?

You're being so graceful.

I am a lady.

In your mind, what image do I have?

Stole a car, broke a lock, and jumped out a building.

Of all the people I know, no one can run faster than you,

including men. So what do you think your image is?

Well... A desperate dog will even jump over the wall.

I just... I'm not usually like this.

What? Behave like a lady in front of Xiu Zhe?

In front of me, you're an athlete?

What's wrong with an athlete?

Are you belittling athletes? Be careful or I'll teach you a lesson.

I'm sure you haven't been beaten by athletes.

Lin Wen Jun did. It's been two weeks and the bruises haven't disappeared.

Do you like Pei Xiu Zhe?

How's that your business?

What's so good about him?

- He's perfect. - Like what?

Gentle, attentive, handsome.

So you're saying I'm not as handsome as he is?

- Come. - What?

Take a good look and compare. Who do you think is more handsome?

How could you do this?! How could you sneak a picture?

- Delete it! Quickly! - Answer me first.

I'll delete it if I'm satisfied with your answer.

I wouldn't want to keep a picture of a loser on my phone either.

Tell me.

You're handsome. Delete it, okay?

That's right.

Good taste.

But he has a better physique than you.

Have you touched it?

Of course not!

You want to touch?

No. Don't think so much.

I'm referring to mine.

♫ Talking to the atmosphere ♫

♫ I thought you were still there ♫

♫ I'm the only one left in this empty room ♫

Miss Xiao Yuan, does it chafe your hand?

Yeah right, it's all soft.

♫ It started raining ♫

♫ I started missing you ♫

It's just so-so.

♫ I realized because I've possessed it before will I feel sad ♫

♫ The deeper it is, the more I am reluctant to let go ♫

♫ I acknowledge this result, your choice ♫

♫ But then what, love? I let go and you left ♫

♫ But then what, love? It seems like I lost you ♫

♫ But then what, love? Why did it pretend it was never here? ♫

♫ But then what, love? It turned into a whirlpool of memories ♫

♫ and swallowed me ♫

♫ If we get in touch again, what should we say? ♫

♫ What kind of role should we play? ♫

♫ To be honest, I cannot pretend to be so carefree ♫

♫ I don't want to hide anything ♫

♫ I just want you to live well ♫

♫ I imagine you've also endured a lot for me ♫

♫ Perhaps I don't have the right to apologize ♫

♫ When I close my eyes, images of us separating spiral in front of me ♫

♫ I didn't have time to say so many things ♫

♫ But what can I do now? ♫

♫ But then what, love? I let go and you left ♫

♫ But then what, love? It seems like I lost you ♫
