Since Ms. Cheng's boyfriend has requested for it,

I need to show him some respect somehow.

But, you better listen up.

Don't let Zheng Qian do anything

even if he wants to do so.

You need to find a reason to reject him,

understood?

Understood.

Continue with your work.

(Zheng Qian)

Xiao Zheng, are you free right now?

Can you come to my office?

Alright, I'll be there immediately.

Xiao Zheng, please come in.

Have a seat.

I heard you made a PowerPoint presentation

for Xiao Sun, am I right?

Yeah.

I've reviewed your slides.

You did a perfect job.

Here's a thumbs up for you.

Thank you.

But, I didn't have enough time.

I could've done better

if I had more time.

This is good enough.

Xiao Zheng, you're new to our company.

I think you're not familiar with how our company operates.

Let me introduce our company to you.

Most of the sales within the company are fixed.

HQ will assign the sales to us.

We just need to hand in our proposals

according to the most basic standards.

We don't need to do a perfect job

in order to be admired by our clients.

There's no need for that.

I don't really understand what you mean.

How do I explain this to you?

Let me put it like this.

You don't need to show off your ability in our company.

Look.

You did such a good job for the presentation slides.

But, if we hand this to our client,

should we follow your current standard

or should we follow our past standard?

If we follow our past standard,

the client will blame us

for treating them frivolously.

They'll say that we're not doing a good job even though we could do so.

But, if we follow your standard,

everyone in the company has to work extra hard because of you.

It's tough for our employees, you know?

(Accurate, efficient, elite)

Xiao Zheng, do you have any questions?

No, I understand everything.

The company's slogan is actually telling us to do the opposite.

We put them on the wall

because we want to remind everyone to never follow the slogan.

I understand now.

Is there anything else?

You're hilarious.

That's all for now. You may leave.

(Brief Introduction)

(Exhibition)

Zheng Qian,

(Huaye Media) How do you feel on your first day?

Not bad.

Great attitude.

You're new to the company.

It's common for you to face challenges.

You should familiarise yourself with the enterprise

and its related tasks as soon as possible.

I'm sure you can get used

to the company soon.

It's better if I never get used to it.

What did you say?

Nothing.

Hey.

You want to drink this?

No thanks.

I can make one for myself later.

Alright, you can take it then.

I'll make another cup for myself.

What a weird day it has been.

Alright, that's all for now.

Does anyone have any questions?

I have a question.

Please tell me.

Yesterday,

when I was reading the details of our organisation,

I found some flaws within

our organisational framework.

I have some suggestions.

Tell us about it.

Alright.

Look, he even made notes.

He's so serious.

I'll get straight to the point then.

Actually, these aren't just minor flaws,

these are major problems.

The company is operating at a snail's pace due to these problems.

We need to go through several processes

in order to apply for a minor thing.

Our human resource management isn't balanced as well.

That's why it's...

Xiao Zheng, it's like this.

Although you're new to the company,

you managed to come up with such great suggestions.

Firstly, I appreciate your effort and ability.

Here's a thumbs up for you.

But, the problems you've mentioned are too big for us to handle.

I guess we can't finish our discussion by today.

How about this?

Next time, we'll hold a special meeting.

We'll do a comprehensive discussion

regarding the problems

you've mentioned to us just now.

What do you think?

Alright.

Meeting dismissed.

Alright.

That's basically it for this month's report.

Look,

this is the list of the best employees of the month.

You just need to sign here.

(List of best employees for Huaye Media)

Change the list. You can only choose one employee.

Just one?

Who should I choose?

Zheng Qian.

I'm afraid someone else would be upset about that.

Just change it.

Do it quickly.

Fine.

What did you say?

What gives him the right to win?

It's because he's his son-in-law.

I'm done for.

I thought this was a stable job.

It's fine even if I don't earn much from it.

This is great.

I can't even afford to consume meat now.

This won't do. I need to confront him.

Aren't you guys following me?

I wasn't included in the first place. I'll stay here.

So, the bonus was yours?

You should pray for your safety.

Go back to your own seat. Go to work. Hurry.

Hurry, continue with your work.

Where's Xiao Li?

I think she's at the sales department.

Fine.

What's wrong with your cabinet?

Nothing's wrong with it.

I just made an excuse for you to visit me.

Hey, don't you think everyone

is staring at me in a weird way?

Is that so?

I think it's pretty normal.

Was it because I mentioned

the problem with our organisational framework during the meeting?

Is that why they dislike me?

No, this has nothing to do with the meeting at all.

(Income, 30,000 yuan)

Why is there so much money in my payroll card?

It's your bonus.

Why would I have a bonus when I was only here for a few days?

Are you serious? Or are you just pretending?

Fine, I'll tell you the truth.

Lucas gave you three person's worth of bonus.

That won't do. I need to see him.

You mustn't see him!

Why are you acting like this?

Why are you rejecting money?

I wish someone could've given me three person's worth of bonus.

Are you afraid that you might burn your hands?

If the bonus belongs to me, I'll get every cent.

If it doesn't belong to me, I won't take one cent.

Brother, you're the son-in-law of Cheng's Group, you know?

If you don't accept the bonus,

they won't be able to lick your boots, you know?

I didn't say anything, right?

I didn't say anything.

(Queen of Cheng Family, Xin Xin)

What's wrong? You looked so puzzled.

I'm the

best employee of the month.

Even the way you speak has changed.

What did I say again?

You'll shine no matter where you go.

That Lucas,

he gave me three person's worth of bonus.

I've only been here for a few days, you know?

Maybe it's because you performed well.

Cheng Xin,

did you tell Lucas

to do something without my knowledge?

Please stop this.

I just want to work normally.

I want to prove my value through my effort.

I don't want them

to give me special treatments.

You're accusing me again.

I really didn't tell them to do anything this time.

Are you serious?

I'm serious.

I think the current situation is great.

I'm pretty satisfied with it.

You have ample time to accompany me.

You're getting on the right track as well.

Unlike the past you,

you were busy with anything and everything.

I don't even know why you were that busy.

It was harder for me to meet you compared with my father.

That was because you were too free.

How was I free?

You think enjoying life is the only thing I do?

Did you do anything else then?

What have you been up to for the past two days?

Don't think I don't know

how you guys think of me.

I'm the daughter of a rich man.

I spend my father's fortune without a care in the world.

Who said enjoying life is the only thing I know how to do?

I just

haven't found the things I want to do.

Fine.

You can wait for your favourite job

to fall from the sky.

Fine.

When I've accomplished

the things I want to do,

I'll return to you

and make you feel ashamed.

Please do so.

Is browsing your phone the only thing you know how to do?

Put down your phone.

I need to talk to you.

Dad, what's wrong?

What are we talking about?

What future plans do you have?

You have graduated for such a long time.

Don't tell me you plan to stay at home and do nothing?

I just plan to

rest at home for some time.

I'll depart once I'm fully prepared.

Half the work, twice the effect, you know?

But I think

you've been resting at home for too long.

Father, you should stop beating around the bush.

We've been battling each other for over 20 years.

I think you're going to release your ultimate technique soon.

Just tell me. What silly ideas do you...

No.

I meant good ideas.

What good ideas do you have for me?

Go and register for the civil service exam next week.

Don't complain about it, okay?

I've told our neighbour, Uncle Chen, about it.

He'll ask his son to come and teach you.

Look at yourself,

and look at other people's son.

He got into a government department after he got his Master's Degree.

He's a deputy section chief now.

A deputy section chief, you know?

Dad, I do know you inside out, right?

But, can you stop mentioning

Uncle Chen's son in front of me?

You'll remind me of my childhood trauma.

You!

My son.

Mum.

Don't blame me for siding with your father this time.

Your father is right.

You only play video games when you're at home.

Isn't that boring?

You should go for it.

You should go for the civil service exam.

Mum, a person like me won't be able to make it.

What are you saying?

My son is the best.

You got into a university without any problem even though it was tough.

I'm sure the civil service exam is a piece of cake.

It's just an exam.

You want me to be a government servant? Fine.

But,

you guys need to agree to my condition.

What condition?

If I do pass the civil service exam,

Mum, you're not allowed to arrange blind dates for me anymore.

I have my own freedom to pursue my true love.

Look at what you're saying. You're making it as if

I'm a stick-in-the-mud.

I was just trying to keep an eye out for you.

I'm fine with that.

Really? You must keep your words.

Let me see what I need to prepare for the civil service exam.

Yuan Yuan, seems like you're betting your all on this.

Are you really going to let him go?

Are you going to let him find his own girlfriend?

You think I'm dumb?

We'll let him take the exam for now.

Ms. Cheng? Why are you here?

You should've told me you were coming. I could have picked you up.

Please come in.

Do you want me to interrogate you? Or do you want to tell me the truth?

Ms. Cheng, what happened?

Please don't scare me.

Stop pretending to be ignorant.

I did nothing wrong.

Ms. Cheng, I didn't offend you.

Not only did you not offend me,

you even made Zheng Qian

the best employee of the month, huh?

Should I thank you for that?

I did make him

the best employee of the month.

I was thinking that Zheng Qian was new to our company.

I was trying to encourage him

with the award.

Lucas, I know

what's on your mind.

You just want to lick my boots, right?

You're sucking up to Zheng Qian in order to be on my good side.

But, listen up.

You made the wrong move this time.

You licked the wrong boots.

Ms. Cheng, how could you say that?

Let me ask you this.

Did you tell everyone about

my relationship with Zheng Qian

on his first day of work?

That was my fault indeed.

I will take note of it next time.

Let me apologise to you.

After that, you made him

the best employee of the month.

Because of that, everyone

is gossiping about Zheng Qian.

So, here's some advice for you.

You should stop making dumb moves

like those again.

I'm really sorry.

I'll surely take note of it next time.

I was too naive this time.

I'm really sorry.

You should reflect on your actions.

Take care.

What are you doing? You scared me.

Did you go to find Lucas?

How did you know?

Your high heels are so loud when you walk.

Of course I'll know about it.

What did you tell him?

I told him to use his brains next time

before he does something.

He licked the wrong boots.

That's why you were angry at me.

Xin Xin, what did I tell you before?

Now, everyone

will see me in a strange way.

What's wrong?

I didn't tell him to give you any special treatment.

There are so many people in the company.

All of them have their eyes on me, you know?

Just let them look at you then.

Since you're capable in the first place.

Cheng Xin.

What?

Are you treating me

like a plush toy in the claw machine?

You always try to

control my life.

But Lucas was the one who was at fault here.

What's wrong with me reminding him about his fault?

Why are you angry at me?

No matter what,

I'm still a newbie to the industry.

If I didn't come to your company,

I'm sure other companies would've ordered me around as well.

But, that process is a kind of training.

What I want to do is to prove my value

through my effort

instead of the current situation.

I don't want my girlfriend to do backdoor deals behind my back.

Why are you scolding me?

I did so because I didn't want you to be upset.

That's why I did that.

If you're unhappy with it,

I'll just stop doing it in the future, alright?

Xin Xin.

Xin Xin!

Enjoy your work!

(Huaye Media, suggestions for organisational framework)

Jia Jia?

I'm taking a shower.

Close the door.

I've prepared some food for you.

You can eat them first.

Alright.

Why are you so early today?

Because I want to see you.

You smell great today.

What are you doing?

Don't do this in broad daylight, okay?

I'm so troubled.

Troubled about what?

Gather your rosebuds

while ye may, you know?

Why are you reciting a poem all of a sudden?

That's not what I meant, okay?

Fine.

What's wrong with you then? Why were you troubled?

I was thinking about our future.

What did your mother say?

This time, my parents promised me that

if I pass the civil service exam,

I'll be able to

pursue my own happiness.

By then,

we'll meet our parents, get married to each other, give birth to a child,

we'll do everything.

Who said that I was going to give birth to a child for you?

Don't you know that

actresses shouldn't give birth that soon?

I was just saying.

I'm not in a rush.

That's fine.

I can finally see some hopes.

Listen,

your parents have very high expectations of your future wife.

This time, we need to work hard

so that we can achieve their expectations.

Alright, come.

Cheers.

Cheers.

I didn't expect

my husband to be that smart.

You!

But of course.

I think I should join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

I think that department suits me.

Sure, just go for it.

I'll support you as long as you're willing to work hard.

But I heard that the civil service exam is pretty difficult.

Don't worry, I'll help you out.

You can stay up and study for the exam

while I support you from the side.

Doesn't that make you my supervisor?

You should endure it.

It's all for the sake of our happiness.

Alright, for the sake of our happiness,

I'll give it my all.

What are you doing?

All of them are important.

Memorise them all.

(Cultivation of Ideological, Morality and Basic Law)

Focus on the book.

Why are you taking a peek again?

Why are you doing this?

Memorise them.

Hurry.

You can do it.

You actually fell asleep? Come on, you can do it.

My goodness.

If our cultural market

is full of

inferior and unpolished products,

what kind of value

will this kind of market

bring to our country?

C.

C? Are you dumb?

Who told you the answer was C?

Ouch!

Calm down.

Communicate with the people.

Listen to their questions.

What did the reporters

say before?

Fairness is the source of creation.

It's the scale that will tip the people into our favour.

So, the government should be advocates of fairness and justice.

What's wrong with him?

I don't know.

Xiao Zheng, please come in.

Is there anything wrong?

This is my resignation letter.

(Letter of resignation)

Why are you resigning?

You can tell me if you're unhappy about anything.

Why are you resigning?

I'm not unhappy.

I just feel that

this job doesn't suit me.

I've read the rules and regulations.

I need to hand in my resignation letter before I resign.

After that, I need to discuss it with my superior after handing over my work.

So,

I wish to discuss with you when I'll be leaving.

So, regarding Ms. Cheng...

Don't worry.

Cheng Xin won't create any trouble for you.

Alright then.

Since you've decided,

I won't force you to stay.

You may leave at any time.

Later, I'll tell the treasurer

to pay you the rest of your wage.

And, regarding the problems

with the organisational framework

and human resource management,

I've made a proposal for you.

It includes my view on the problems

and some suggestions as well.

I hope it can be of help to the company.

(Proposal for better organisational framework)

Xiao Zheng, you're still thinking about the company

even though you're resigning?

This is very touching.

I still don't know much

about the company's projects

and how it operates,

that's why I couldn't help out much.

But, I really wanted to do something for the company.

That's why I've written this report.

Your report is well-written.

Thank you for the report.

Xiao Zheng, you're a talented youngster.

Honestly speaking,

I couldn't bear to see you leave.

I suppose this is my last time working together with you.

This is very unfortunate.

I hope you do well in the future.

Thank you.

I'll leave now.

Xiao Zheng,

I have something to tell you as well.

Actually, it was pretty tough for me.

I have no say in numerous matters.

Every company

is an independent ecosystem.

All of them have their own conditions for survival.

It's hard for a fish to change the entire ecosystem.

Thank you for your advice.

But, how could you know without trying it in the first place?

Take care.

Where's Zheng Qian?

He resigned from his job?

He actually resigned from his job?

Where's Lucas?

He's in his office.

Ms. Cheng?

Why are you here? You didn't...

What? Do I need to report to you before I visit?

Not at all.

Why did Zheng Qian resign?

Why didn't you tell me beforehand?

Zheng Qian said he had discussed this with you.

Did you

or anyone else give him any special treatment again?

Ms. Cheng, that's a false claim.

No one dares to do so.

I'm serious.

Just forget about it.

Why is it so exhausting for me to speak with you?

See you.

Share them with the others.

(Huaye, Xiao Li)

(Your girlfriend)

(sent this to the company just now.)

(She left after she was done.)

(She looked pretty angry.)

I'm done for.

(Hao)

Hello, Zheng Qian?

Last time, didn't you mention that your friend

was going to a tuition class for the civil service exam?

Do you still remember where it is?

I don't know.

Did you had gunpowder for breakfast?

Can't you speak properly?

Stop bothering me.

I have no time for your nonsense.

I'm busy.

What's wrong?

I think I've made Cheng Xin angry.

Did you two argue again?

It's fine. It's common for you two to argue with each other.

Not this time. I think I've messed things up.

Tell me about it then.

I've been so tired lately.

Tell me about it so that I won't be that bored.

Make yourself scarce.

I'll hang up now.

Wait! Don't hang up!

Tell me about it.

Maybe I can find some solutions

to cover up for you.

Cheng Xin introduced me to

a media company under Cheng's Group.

After a few days of working, I think the company doesn't suit me.

And I resigned from my job.

She doesn't know about it yet.

Zheng Qian, I'm sorry then.

I think you should hang up.

Don't!

Can you be serious for once?

You resigned before telling her?

The problem is it's too late.

She brought me some cakes just now.

And she realised that I had resigned from my job.

She left the cake in the office.

Let's forget about surviving, okay?

We should discuss how

you can die without your body ripped apart.

By the way, why did she bring you cakes?

What kind of cake is it?

Hey, can you focus on the main point here?

The main point isn't about the flavour of the cakes.

That main point is that I've resigned from my job.

But she didn't send me any messages

or call me either.

Zheng, you're in big trouble.

Judging from Cheng Xin's temper,

she would've confronted you long ago.

Do you know what she's doing right now?

This is what we call as the calm before the storm.

That's terrifying.

So, what should I do?

I think you should call her immediately.

Your pride isn't important right now.

Coaxing her is the most important thing.

Alright.

Goodbye.

(Queen of Cheng Family, Cheng Xin)

(Hello, the number you have dialled is currently busy.)

(Please try again later.)

(Hello, the number you have dialled is currently busy.)

(Hello, the number you have dialled is currently busy.)

Hello, Xiao Bao?

Hello, Sister Xin.

I called you because I have something to tell you.

I'm going to be married soon.

Alright. Congratulations.

Did you catch a flu?

It's nothing serious.

What's wrong? Do you need my help for anything?

It's fine.

You don't need to worry about our wedding.

Our wedding planner will deal with everything.

You just need to attend our wedding.

Call Brother Qian to come as well.

Alright, don't worry. I understand.

Not yet.

You were the first person I called.

Later, I'll send a message to our group.

I'll send the address to the group as well.

Rest well then.

Goodbye.

Xin Xin,

this is really rare.

I didn't expect you to stay at home.

Are you going out to entertain your clients again?

I've been very busy lately.

Xin Xin, remember to take the flu medicine.

Hurry and drink it.

What's wrong? Did you catch a flu?

It's nothing serious.

Take the flu medicine then.

Good girl.

By the way, Xin Xin,

have you seen your mother lately?

You should say hi to her for me if you see her.

Let's have dinner together when she's free,

okay?

Miss,

what's wrong with her?

I don't know.

There's something wrong with her lately.

She didn't even drink the chicken soup I cooked for her.

Heat up the chicken soup

and send it to her room.

Understood.

By the way, you should ask her to take her medicine on time.

Don't worry.

(The company's organisational framework)

(Huaye Media)

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls...

Just get straight to the point.

I still need to study for my exam.

I'll be married in two days.

Have you guys prepared my red packets for me?

Xiao Bao, how's the wedding preparation?

Look at him.

He still wants our red packets? My goodness.

I didn't prepare anything.

Xiao Bao, you'll get married soon.

Are you happy?

(Happy, and a little bit nervous)

(I'm happy and nervous at the same time.)

Xin Xin,

the four of us should attend his wedding together.

My dear lady, please don't put salt on her wound.

Hello?

Hello, Jia Jia?

Zheng Qian and Cheng Xin just had an argument.

You should stop making things worse.

It's different this time.

They had a heated argument.

Cheng Xin isn't confronting Zheng Qian anymore.

Don't you think that's abnormal?

I'm just reminding you

just in case you say the wrong thing.

Alright, I'll hang up now.

Jia Jia, let's meet up first.

I'll attend his wedding with you.

(Jia Jia, let's meet up first.)

(I'll attend his wedding with you.)

Guys,

I was cleaning the kitchen just now.

I only saw the news by now.

Congratulations, Xiao Bao.

I'll be there on time.

(Sha Sha)

(Xiao Bao, I've shopped for some things)

(we need for our wedding.)

(Hurry and pay for them, okay? It's an emergency.)

Why are you still buying things?

Sha Sha,

I thought we bought them before?

They're almost the same. Do we really need to buy them?

(Of course. Don't you want me)

(to be the most beautiful bride of all time?)

(Wedding is a huge matter, you know?)
