[Dear Little Mermaid]

[Episode 12]

It's late. Why are you still working?

You're back.

Yes.

It's late. You should go to bed now.

I can't. I have a very tricky problem to handle today.

I might need you to excuse me tonight.

Let me have a look.

The core competency of the Not In Vain Plan.

[Su Mu, Chairman of Qian Ye Film and TV]

It's information on Su Mu.

Don't worry.

There is always a solution.

Don't stress yourself out. Let me give you a massage.

Don't worry. I'm the undefeatable Guru Bai Qi.

Here. This side.

Thank you.

- Don't move.
- Don't move.

We just want to talk to you.

Let's not alert the security guards.

She's right. You look like a playboy.

Don't let your scandals implicate us weak girls!

Are you two women mad?

Are you trying to hold me hostage because our deal didn't work out?

Stop your wishful thinking.

I won't give in.

Mr. Su, we know that you're lying.

From where did you hear this rumor?

It's utter nonsense.

I also know that you tried to sign an unfair deal with Qin Ge

because you had been dismissed from your duties in the company by your brother.

Mr. Su, you're really something.

It's intellectual property worth tens of millions,

yet you want to capture the wolf empty-handed.
(T/N: Derogatory term for a scam done by cheating and not investing)

You don't have to be that mean.

To be honest, I'm still trying to convince my brother,

but he's still angry with me and won't listen to anything I say.

I have no idea what to do now.

I really want to be the one handling your project,

but there's nothing I can do about it.

It's our chance.

We have an idea.

- Would you like to work with us?
- What is it?

It's really simple.

You'll be our stepping stone, and we'll execute the plan.

What will I be?

- You'll be the stepping stone.
- You'll be the stepping stone.

You spent so much time walking with Lin Xue Zhou and this is the only information you got.

How disappointing.

You're not exactly right.

I know what is the challenge they're facing now.

They've got all the information they need,

but they just don't have the chance to meet the person in charge.

That's all they told me.

[Su Mu, Chairman of Qian Ye Film and TV]

I guess they were talking about Su Mu from Qianye Yingshi.

Su Mu from Qianye Yingshi?

I recall something.

A few years ago, Su Mu's father had stent surgery at the hospital my father worked at.

Su Mu even came to visit him.

He and my dad are pretty close.

Even now, they still meet for tea quite often.

Lu Tian, do you think President Lu can help me ask Su Mu out?

Why do you want to ask him out?

Are you really going to quit medicine to become an artist

and make money using your pretty face?

Of course, it is Qin Ge and Lin Xue Zhou who want to meet him,

and the meeting is going to be a coincidence.

I got it.

We are truly the men secretly

behind the successful women!

It's done.

I told them they would be doing this to help his future daughter-in-law.

They immediately got everything arranged.

I've sent you the time and location.

[Time: Noon the day after tomorrow
Venue: I'll send a location pin later]

Su Mu has really expensive hobbies.

How do I get close to him?

Are you still reading the documents?

By the way, there's a new tea room on Old Street.

Do you have time tomorrow afternoon?

Let's try it out tomorrow.

But...

It's been a while since we last went out together.

Fine. It won't take much time.

Besides, it's hard to turn him down when he's staring at me like this!

All right.

I'll give you the opportunity to treat me.

That's great.

There might be a surprise for you tomorrow afternoon.

[Qing Chuan City People's Hospital: Outpatient Clinic]

- Dr. Lu.
- That way. You need to go that way.

- Dr. Lu.
- Thank you.

Dr. Lu, you seem to be in a good mood today.

Are you going on a date?

I guess so. Dawdler Bai and I are going to do something big today.

- Something big?
- Something big?

What are you going to do?

Can you share it with us?

Tell us.

I can't.

After all, this is a secret operation.

- A secret?
- A secret?

It's about time.

My parents are waiting for us.

The two of them...

Your heart is palpitating. Have you been sleeping well?

I've been sleeping quite well.

I'm just nervous to meet Dr. Bai.

Let's run a blood test tomorrow.

You shouldn't use the hospital's power socket for personal use.

Otherwise, it'll cause a lot of trouble during emergencies.

You shouldn't move around the public amenities without permission.

You're suffering from hyperlipidemia.

You should avoid greasy and fried food, or you might end up with a cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease.

I know. Coronary heart disease, right?

If I'm really diagnosed with coronary heart disease, I'll consult the cardiologist.

You don't have to worry about it.

The cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease will not only lead to coronary heart disease,

but also arteriosclerosis, cerebral embolism,

cerebral infarction, myocardial ischemia,

myocardial infarction, or heart failure.

There is a 60% to 90% chance that these diseases will cause death.

Besides, I'm the doctor in charge of your case. Your health is my responsibility.

Are you feeling any discomfort?

Dr. Bai, my shoulders

have been hurting really badly for the past two days. They're swollen.

Can you give me a massage?

It's just a normal symptom.

It can be solved by consuming more lean meat and protein, and controlling your salt intake.

Dawdler Bai, you're quite two-faced.

You're an expressionless doctor in front of your patients,

but a friendly and easygoing guy to Qin Ge.

- However, Qin Ge will definitely be moved...
- Dr. Bai, Dr. Lu.

After seeing what you've done for her.

Then, you'll get yourself a girlfriend.

If we're late it's because you keep talking.

That's only because you insisted on doing your ward rounds.

Let's go.

All right. I got it.

Sure. Get here as soon as possible.

Qin Ge said she will be here soon.

It's my fault.

I should have told her earlier.

Hopefully, there won't be any other issues with President Lu and Su Mu.

Your worry just came true.

Su Mu is leaving,

and my dad has a last-minute conference.

We don't have any excuse to make them stay.

Which room are they in?

The Taishan Room, on the second floor.

Qin Ge is not here yet. You can't do anything even if you go there now.

You'll stay here and wait for them.

I'll go upstairs and figure out a way to make them stay.

Xue Zhou.

- Where are you now?
- I'm on my way.

I need to confess something.

Go ahead.

In fact, I asked my dad for a favor

and told him to ask Su Mu out today.

I wanted to create a chance for you to run into him.

You?

Yes. I asked my dad and Su Mu out,

but they are leaving soon.

Dawdler Bai is trying to keep them around.

Sure. Thank you so much.

I'll hurry and pick Qin Ge up now.

Hopefully, Bai Qi Jia can make them stay a little longer.

I'll hang up now.

Hi, Chairman Su.

President Lu asked me out today,

but refused to tell what happened even when he was leaving.

It seems like someone wanted to take advantage

of their relationship with President Lu just so that they could meet me.

I'm quite impressed.

You've found out everything about my social circle.

Have a seat.

Thanks.

I'm so sorry, Chairman Su.

I only did this because I had no other option.

What do you want?

Chairman Su, the author of Not In Vain Plan is a good friend of mine.

She signed an option agreement with Qian Ye Film and TV for the adaptation of the comic into a movie.

However, she was recently informed about the termination of the agreement.

Not only that, it was Chairman Su's own decision to terminate the agreement.

I simply want Chairman Su to meet my friend this one time.

We've long informed the author about the termination of the option agreement.

The board has discussed this project during the meeting.

Someone else will be taking over this project.

I won't be able to do anything for you.

Chairman Su. I know this might come off offensive,

but I still hope that you can allow us some time

to prove to you that you made the right decision.

My friend is very passionate about manhua.

The world of manhuas is really bold, imaginative, and free.

It's like a parallel universe.

I really wish I could stay inside there and never leave!

It is hard being a manhua artist though.

Is there anything that's not hard?

Growing up is already very hard on its own.

If you have something you like,

it's like adding sugar to a bitter cup of coffee.

If you have someone you like, it's like mixing milk into the coffee.

There's also family, friends, people you like, and people who like you.

Mixing all of that makes milk foam.

That's how a fragrant and sweet latte is made.

Who would find drinking a latte hard?

Trying to find joy amidst of all the suffering?

You can say so,

but there's nothing wrong with doing that.

Chairman Su, I've read many interviews and articles of yours.

You appreciate it the most

when the creators are passionate and have perseverance with their own works,

and my friend is that pure creator.

The market has acknowledged her talent and potential.

He's there. Lu Tian!

Go to the second floor. The first room after a left turn.

It's up to you now.

- Sure.
- Let's go now.

Chairman Su. I hope you can reconsider this.

Chairman Su. She's the friend I mentioned just now.

Bai Qi, the author of the Not In Vain Plan.

- Nice to meet you.
- She's Lin Xue Zhou, the editor-in-chief.

Nice to meet you.

They'd like to take this opportunity to show you their perspective,

and find out what caused the failure of this project.

Hi, Chairman Su. I'm Bai Qi, the author of Not In Vain Plan.

I'm really not interested in who you are.

I think

there's no need to continue with the discussion of this project.

Chairman Su. I wonder why you dislike our project so much.

Our project obviously has a high market competency.

We have invested a lot of manpower and resources, and you just pulled out of the project without warning.

That is a fatal blow for us.

Okay. What has happened has happened,

but we need closure.

She's right, Chairman Su.

Young people.

You only saw the tip of the iceberg, but you thought you knew everything

and were capable of changing the scenario.

Since you won't give up easily,

I'll tell you what I think.

The main issue about this project

is the fact that the creators are made up of a bunch of young people.

You're very passionate, but you lack executive skills and creativity.

I'm a businessman.

I want all my investments to be profitable.

Do you still think it's necessary to show me your project?

Chairman Su, I don't agree with you.

Experience and skills are things we can earn over time.

Please, give us some time.

I promise you that we have the confidence to come up with an amended plan

that will satisfy both you and the market.

We won't change ourselves just to please the investors,

as that's not what creators do.

However, we'll take in everyone's opinions

when we're creating our work and try our best to strike a balance.

We'll never be the frog stuck in the well.
(T/N: A person with a limited outlook due to lack of experience)

I've met a lot of young people like you.

You put your enthusiasm and dreams before everything else.

I've given you enough time.

Let's end this here.

It's fine.

Chairman Su...

Let's go.

Chairman Su...

Don't pull a long face.

I saw Su Mu leaving with a sullen face.

Did you just blow the chance?

Yes. We're all done for.

I don't think so.

If Su Mu didn't take anything you said into consideration,

he wouldn't stay until now.

Yes. Chairman Su has made it very clear just now.

He simply hates it when people give empty promises.

Our success now depends on the man who affects him the most.

Are you talking about Su Lun?

Yes.

I've already sent a text to Su Lun.

He will show his brother his determination the moment his brother arrives at the office.

I think there's a very high chance that Chairman Su will change his mind.

Do you have a backup plan?

Of course. It's a series of stratagems.

Do you think you're the only one with a plan?

Xue Zhou, you're amazing!

Earlier my heart was like dead ashes.
(T/N: Hopeless)

I've even decided to take up all the responsibility in front of Xia Chu Yun.

I don't want to drag you into this.

Don't worry.

When we signed the contract, I told you

I'll bring you to the peak and show you the best landscape.

I gave you my words, and I'll fulfill my promises.

We'll do it together.

I won't be able to enjoy any of those without you by my side.

I need a hug too.

You have to do this, Su Lun.

Don't contradict Brother.

Don't upset him. Don't upset him.

Never upset him.

Brother.

What brought you here?

I was too bored at home, so I decided to drop by and pay you a visit.

Quit the act.

You were the one who sent the two girls from Fingertip Comics to me, right?

Did you think you could hide your intentions?

You told a few young people, who are of a similar age as you, to come to me.

Do you think they'll be able to convince me?

That's not true, Brother.

The comics market has been on the rise for the past few years.

People are exploring different genres and themes.

We can't always solve our problems the traditional way.

Besides, you've always approved of Bai Qi Studio's previous works.

You took back your words just because someone said something baseless to you.

That doesn't make much sense, right?

Interesting.

Fine.

Since you look genuinely confident with their works,

let's make a bet.

If you're able to come up with a new proposal within a week,

while they submit an amended work

and allow a professional team to rate it.

If they can hit a score of 85 and above,

I will believe that you're capable of handling this project.

Really?

It's a deal, Brother!

You're the best, Su Mu!

Okay. It's a deal, Brother.

I'll head home now, Brother.

Bye-bye! Bye-bye!

[Su Lun]

- Hello?
- Bai Qi, I settled the matter.

I'm in charge of the project again.

I'll get someone to amend the proposal right away.

I'll send you the new content tonight.

That's great.

We'll be awaiting good news tonight.

Bye-bye.

That's great.

Bai Qi Jia, you're amazing.

You're not only a good doctor, but also a skillful negotiator.

I'll never call you the simple-minded but smart student again.

This is just one of the factors.

Most importantly, you moved Su Mu with your passion for comics.

Yes, I think Chairman Su is someone who actually cares a lot about content.

It was definitely your works that moved him.

All right. I'll talk to you later.

I need to go back to the office and report this to the president.

Xue Zhou, let me come with you.

We can have dinner together later.

Fine. I'll give you a chance.

Dawdler Bai, this is a good opportunity

for you to fish for some compliments. Take this opportunity to improve your relationship.

- I got it.
- I'll get going.

Xue Zhou, wait for me!

It feels like I've missed something.

I know what I missed. I haven't told Xiao Min about this.

Xiao Min, we've settled the issue with Su Mu.

All thanks to Bai Qi Jia and Lu Tian who asked him out.

When I get more information from Su Lun tonight, I'll share more with you.

All done!

What should we do next? Go home and get some sleep.

You're only going to start work later in the evening. Let's go somewhere.

Did I forget anything important again?

Brother Xiao Min. What's the matter? Are you okay?

I swear I wasn't taking a peek at you.

I just accidentally glanced at you.

Brother Xiao Min...

What's the matter? Did I say something wrong again?

They're too disgusting.

Yes. That's too disgusting.

- How could they do that?
- How could they?

- Exactly.
- I would've said it out if I were them.

- This is too disgusting.
- The drawings are clearly really ugly.

- Yes.
- Yes, that's exactly what I thought.

- How could they draw it like that?
- Miss. What was the disgusting thing you were talking about?

Of course, I'm talking about Mad Eye Comics. The way they handle their jobs is really disgusting.

They have significantly lowered the standard of local comics. Don't you agree?

Yes. I always think Mad Eye Comics has gone overboard.

You agree too, right?

We are good friends as long as we share the same views.

Good friends.

- They are too disgusting.
- Yes.

Am I right?

I've always said this.

Where are you taking me?

Are you giving me another surprise?

Are we going to get something to eat again?

No, don't worry.

Come here.

Open your eyes.

Where are we?

A place where you can do whatever you want.

Whatever I want?

Let's see what can I do here.

[Fantasy Light Art Museum]

[Picasso Art Museum]

♫ The light passes through a window before a mirror ♫

What do you think?

I like this.

♫ The incense smoke faintly turns into your appearance ♫

Let's go! Let's explore the ocean.

I'm going to be the pirate king!

The pirate queen!

The pirate.

♫ Everything about our future that I have imagined ♫

♫ All my paintings have you beside me ♫

♫ I think I've gone crazy ♫

♫ The entire world has blossomed flowers for you ♫

Is this the important thing you were talking about?

Bringing me here?

Yes. I've been really tired of working on my research papers.

I hope to come here to feed my artistic mind.

You happen to be an artist too, so I thought I should invite you along.

Doctors need to feed their artistic minds at an art museum too?

Of course.

We can also exchange ideas.

Qin Ge.

Do you think these look like diamonds?

Yes, I think so.

Diamonds are the symbol of love.

It symbolizes eternity.

Aren't we going to talk about arts? Why are we talking about love?

♫ Everything about our future that I have imagined ♫

♫ All my paintings have you beside me ♫

♫ I think I've gone crazy ♫

♫ The entire world has blossomed flowers for you ♫

♫ Your attitude doesn't matter ♫
♫ Don't go thinking about what's true and false ♫

♫ With you, I'm not afraid of anything ♫

♫ I think I've gone crazy ♫

Sorry. Sorry.

Let's go.

Are you all right?

♫ Your attitude doesn't matter ♫
♫ Don't go thinking about what's true and false ♫

♫ With you, I'm not afraid of anything ♫

I'm fine.

I heard that Qian Ye Film and TV has agreed to keep working with you.

Congratulations, Editor-in-Chief Lin.

I should thank General Manager Xia for your guidance.

Don't worry.

I'll make sure situations like this won't happen again.

Lest the snake takes these opportunities to set us up again.

It seems like you've grown quite a lot in the past few years,

but it's still too early to celebrate.

There are still a lot of things you haven't gone through.

Xue Zhou. Xue Zhou, can we play something else?

Exercise keeps me motivated.

Although Chairman Su agreed to resume the collaboration, I shouldn't let my guard down yet!

I must do my best.

You're being too harsh on yourself. It's fine to take a break once in a while.

I always do my best.

Hit me. Come on, hit me!

Don't go easy on me just because I'm a pretty lady.

- Come at me!
- A real man doesn't hit women.

I can't beat you, but you can't catch me too.

You...

I...

Lu Tian.

Lu Tian, are you all right?

You didn't hit me.

Do you want to die?

You won't be able to hit me!

Eat slowly. We just finished exercising.

You'll have an upset stomach later.

Here.

I asked you along so that you can cheer me up.

I didn't ask for all this nagging.

I'm just worried about you.

You'll feel ill later if you gobble down your food.

About what happened to Su Mu, don't take it personally.

Isn't everything going well?

What if it isn't?

Life is unpredictable.

Nothing is unpredictable! I have faith in you.

If we work hard enough,

we can turn a bike into a motorbike!

I told you to eat slowly.

Boss, can I have a bottle of mineral water?

- Here's your water.
- Thanks!

Are you feeling better?

Look. I knew that would distract you.

Didn't the hiccup stop?

That... I think I'm a little drunk.

I need to use the washroom.

Let's go together.

Qin Ge.

I've something to tell you.

Qin Ge, you should be the one taking the initiative this time.

Let me go first.

Bai Qi Jia.

I hereby announce that from today on,

you'll officially be my boyfriend.

During your tenure,

reflect on yourself twice a day and stay away from all the scandals.

Make sure to keep your distance from other girls.

Do you agree with those terms?

I do.

Congratulations.

You can now give an official hug to your girlfriend.

Qin Ge, thanks... for making me your boyfriend.

Hello, Professor.

Sure.

I'll be right there.

What happened?

There's an emergency case in the hospital. They need me there now.

Go ahead. I can go home myself.

Stay at home and wait for me.

I said I would wait for him to come home.

Why are you standing here?

Didn't I tell you to go to bed first?

I was waiting for you to come home.

Have a seat.

It's almost dawn.

You need to go to bed early.

What happened?

Bai Qi Jia. You look bothered.

Nothing can bother me. I'm fine.

You don't look fine.

Tell me what happened.

Fine. I was invited to an inter-provincial meeting tomorrow,

but I turned down the offer.

Why?

Because I have to be away for a month,

and I don't want to leave you alone.

I'm not a girl who'll drag you down.

I'm 26 years old this year.

I've been taking good care of myself over the years.

Yes, you have. You just somehow ended up in a hospital.

Fine.

I made a mistake. I shouldn't have said that.

Don't be sad. Don't cry.

Don't be mad at me.

I'm not mad at you.

I think I'm dragging you down.

I don't want to be a burden to you.

You'll never be a burden to me.

You're my sunshine

that always lights up my life,

and gives me strength.

Trust me.

I can take care of myself.

You will do whatever you want to do.

You have my words.
