[Once We Get Married]

[Episode 15 | May I Kiss You?]

I need a ride! Take me home! Take me home now!

I'm sleepy.

- Xixi... - Take me home!

Your ride is on the way.

Why don't you take a nap now?

I like you.

I like you, Yin Sichen.

You're a jerk!

Do you like me back?

Do you?

Yes or no?

Do you like me?

I do.

I like you a lot.

[Alex Gives Marry Me to Owner of CICI Gu Xixi]

[VStudio interviewed Gu Xixi, the owner of CICI, ]

[who already declined Alex's offer of taking charge of Marry Me]

[and terminated the cooperation for her own brand...]

"Who is she to say no to Alex?"

"Who does she think she is?"

"Anything for exposure!"

"Ugly chick!" Who are you calling ugly?

Your whole family is ugly! You aren't half as pretty as my toe!

I'm so pissed! Here's another one.

What...? What's the matter with them?

"Please! Just admit you're a copycat!

Save the salute-the-classic crap!"

We didn't copy anyone!

Damn it! My blood is boiling!

How did this happen?

Did you read her article about me?

I did. I thought Ran Xiwei would bad-mouth us,

but the whole thing was like an ode.

Who are those trolls to spew nonsense on us, saying our reputation is undeserved?

She spoke for us in the comment area, which only led to more controversies.

One last question.

One of the recent trending topics is that Alex asked you to be in charge of Marry Me,

but you declined the offer.

May I ask why you turned him down?

Let me be clear. I'm a huge fan of Alex

and his design, and I appreciate his kind offer.

But it's always been my dream to have my own brand.

So, there are some tough decisions to make.

You said it yourself that you're Alex's fan.

Is it safe to say that your design is inspired by his?

I guess you could say that because I'm familiar with all his works.

Still, my design remains independent, and it represents my own idea.

I do hope I can be a great designer like him.

Thank you for your time, Miss Gu.

What's on your mind?

I'm thinking it can't be a coincidence

that every argument and question match those in Ran Xiwei's interview.

What's more, this article is elevating CICI to an international brand,

and emphasizing my refusal in every letter

without even a word about my explanation.

Yeah. And let's not forget, this is Ran Xiwei's Official Account.

She can say whatever she wants.

Maybe she paid them to say bad things about us.

But what's in it for her?

Wake up, silly!

Right now, you're Yin Sichen's wife.

She's probably getting back at you for him.

What a witch!

Okay. Stop. Enough about her. My head is exploding.

Our top priority is to clear CICI's name

and reduce the damage to the minimum.

I agree.

[You call that design? It's crap!]

[Who are you to challenge Alex? You're nowhere near his level!]

[Please! Save the salute-the-classic crap!]

[It's almost the same as the original. You're good!]

I heard about what happened.

Why didn't you tell me?

Gu Xixi, arguing with them is a pure waste of time.

The public doesn't need your defense.

So I should sit and do nothing while they accuse me of things I didn't do?

I did nothing wrong. And they need to know the truth.

Yes.

You're innocent, but the more you speak, the stronger the backlash gets.

It's better that you wait for it to blow over,

and then post a short and sweet clarification.

Yin Sichen, if you were in my shoe, would you do the same?

Of course I would.

It's the best solution.

Don't let your emotions cloud your judgment. Think rationally.

Like I said

we're never on the same page.

Gu Xixi, can't you see I'm here to help?

- That day at the masquerade... - I know what happened.

I already did.

I'm busy. Could you leave me alone?

Aren't I here to explain to her?

Now, she needs to rest.

[Yin Sichen's Moments]

[Contacts Gu Xixi]

[CICI]

Is she still replying?

[Jeez! So "salute" equals "copy", huh?]

[Ugly chick!]

[Shut it down! Stop embarrassing yourself!]

You can't abuse my woman!

Yin Sichen is probably right. They can't be reasoned with.

I gotta calm down.

Iced Americano.

Who's that?

He argued with so many of them.

Why would he defend me?

Could he be my hardcore fan?

Hi, thanks for speaking up for me.

[Hi, thanks for speaking up for me.]

Gu Xixi, how dare you!

You stayed out all night again!

What are you doing here?

I should ask you the same.

Gu Xixi,

where were you the whole night? You're married, aren't you?

Mr. Yin, nice to meet you again.

Don't you have work to do, Mr. Mo?

Why are you always here?

It's not what you think.

Xixi and I are working on a counterplan.

She's got some ideas, and we're exchanging point of views.

She already has me.

We don't wanna trouble you.

I'm her friend and shareholder

which makes this store my business, too.

Gu Xixi, this should be our store.

It belongs to me.

But I'm your husband!

You...

Sorry to interrupt,

but here isn't Why Mall, and we aren't discussing family matters.

Please respect the owner of CICI.

I'm sorry.

You still haven't patched things up?

You must be hungry.

Breakfast is on me.

President.

How could Mo Zixin be her shareholder but not me?

Aren't I hotter, richer and a better investor than him?

She chose the wrong guy.

I understand perfectly how bad you feel,

but I strongly advise you

not to argue with her over that, especially now.

Given that your misunderstanding still stands

and her business is in crisis, the best way to help her

is to focus on her biggest issue.

I know.

That attack is organized in an attempt to destroy Gu Xixi.

I thought she knew where the line was,

but she didn't, and crossed it way too far!

Who's she?

What a surprise visit!

I called you several times, but you didn't pick up.

I heard you're being cyber-bullied

because of that article.

Oh, that. Don't worry.

I'm fine. It's nothing.

I can handle it.

My point being,

as that article is featuring Gu Xixi,

she's abused and attacked, too,

over the past few days.

So you're concerned about her.

I didn't expect any of that.

I meant to help promote her brand

but somehow, it backfired.

I know.

Some people could be scarier than we thought.

Xiwei, I also read that article.

It twisted facts about CICI in a subtle way

that was oblivious to Xixi, but you should've picked that up.

I'm sorry for my negligence,

but I was way too busy at the time, so I had my people review it.

They were too careless.

But I promise that I'll handle it.

If Xixi needs anything, she can always ask me.

That's unnecessary.

I got her back.

Xiwei, we're friends.

If you're in trouble, I'll do my best to help you out

and protect all that you've worked so hard for.

That said,

I'm letting certain things slide, not because I'm not seeing them.

Gu Xixi is my wife.

I'll never allow anyone to hurt her for any purpose!

What's that supposed to mean?

Are you implying that I plotted the whole thing?

Why would I do that?

You saw what happened.

I've made it clear that I'm on Gu Xixi's side from the very beginning.

I'm not implying anything

or thinking the worst of anyone.

But I do hope this mess stops here and now.

Sichen,

you've never given me this attitude before.

Did Gu Xixi say anything to you?

We grew up together.

Don't you know me?

I cherish our friendship

for old times' sake

and I hate to see we ruin it.

Quit it before it's too late.

I got work to do. Have a nice day.

Enjoy your drink.

[Granny] Xixi is home! Come back now!

Yeah?

Sichen, it's me.

Come to the pub. It's urgent!

I just had a meeting and got a break.

It's not me. It's Xiwei. Come quickly!

Xiwei? What about her?

I don't know what happened, but she asked me to drink with her

and she's hitting the bottle too hard.

We really need you!

Why didn't you stop her?

Would I call you if I could? Just come over!

I can't. I'm needed elsewhere.

I don't care!

We're old friends.

If anything happens to her, I won't be easy on you!

It's your call. We're waiting.

This way.

We're here.

She's already wasted.

Take care of her.

Gotta go. See you.

Xiwei.

Sichen?

Why are you so cold to me?

We've been friends for like forever.

We know each other so well.

Does all that mean nothing to you?

Do I mean nothing to you?

You mean a lot to me, Xiwei,

as much as Shang Ke does.

Both of you are my indispensable friends.

Just friends?

After so many years, I'm used to having you around.

All our friends believe we'll be together eventually.

But why?

Why are you turning a blind eye to all my efforts?

Can't you see all that I've done?

I'm always seeing you as my friend.

Maybe you're right.

We're used to each other's company, but that's not affections or love.

Love is the moment you see someone,

you never wanna let her go.

So, is that "someone" Gu Xixi?

Are you already in love with her?

I don't want her to get hurt in any way.

Shang Ke will take you home.

Get more rest.

Sichen...

Xiaoya.

Yeah?

Come here.

- What? - Come here and look.

See if this statement is good enough.

Read it.

It's well-written. Accurate and clear with enough evidence.

I'll post it on Weibo now.

In your face, trolls!

Hold it for a few days.

Why?

Weren't you the one fighting against them earlier?

Here's the thing.

Yin Sichen said the public is still too hot-headed to think calmly.

Our response should better wait until they cool down.

I gave it a thought and found it reasonable.

Didn't someone call his names in front of me only a few days ago?

Why the sudden change of attitude?

There might be hidden treasure in a pile of trash, right?

He's unreliable per se,

but his idea isn't too bad.

Who are you trying to convince?

In that case, this isn't your paid poster, isn't it?

Iced Americano?

I thanked him in a private message.

I checked his profile page and found nothing.

That ID was recently registered.

So I assumed you hired him.

That tone is familiar.

What's wrong?

It's Yin Sichen!

Him?

I'm gonna give him a good talking-to.

Calm down. Don't get mad. He was defending us.

He asked me to stop, but he started a war online.

What was that?

I guess he tried to protect you.

All right. Forget about him.

Leave all that mess behind.

Even a computer can't work 24/7, much less you.

Look at yourself. Your dark circles are reaching your jaw.

It's time to take a break from work and all our problems.

Or your CPU will overheat.

I can't. I must focus on the work.

No, you're not.

You're gonna go shopping, have fun and relax yourself.

Don't exhaust yourself to death.

Xixi.

Hi. Hello.

I'm here.

[A new private message.]

[Gu Xixi] Don't interfere again.

And don't cross the line yourself.

I can explain.

[Message successfully sent but rejected by the receiver.]

She unfriended me?

Hey, uh... Mr. Mo, take a seat.

No, thanks. I won't stay for too long.

I thought long and hard at home

and realized this matter is bigger than we thought.

Given that neither of you have candled PR crisis before,

the longer we wait, the worse CICI looks in the public eye.

Exactly. They're still launching attacks online this morning with dozens of pages of catty comments.

So I'm thinking maybe it's time to bring in Wenye Group's PR team

to help CICI out.

I understand your concern.

But no worries.

Wenye Group won't be under the spotlight or connected to this matter.

The tricky part is that the public doesn't trust my capacity.

They think I'm not a qualified designer.

Having a PR team reverse their opinion might not be the best choice.

What we need is a chance to prove ourselves to everyone.

I like what you think.

Still, I don't know what to do.

But trust me. Give me some time, and I'll figure it out.

We'll figure it out.

I'm your shareholder, no?

I'll always stand behind you.

We should be dealing with this together.

That's right. We'll do it together!

- Xiaoxin, ask Miss Mu to come over. - Yes, Mr. Shang.

Is she gonna like this pose?

Wait. Or should I be like this?

What's up?

While we're here, please sign these files.

What would you like for dinner?

Can't you ask me that in a message?

I miss you!

Sign the files first.

You got it.

Who the hell is that?

[Dear Mother]

Hi, Mom. What's up?

Mrs. Zhao's daughter, Qing, is back from abroad.

Come home tonight. We're gonna have dinner together.

- I'm busy. - Go ahead.

I told them you'd be there.

Besides, you and Qing haven't seen each other for years.

You guys can catch up over dinner.

But, Mom, I'm already seeing someone.

Who is that?

- It's huge. - Are you nuts?

- Why didn't you say anything about it? - Stop it!

Mom, gotta go. Duty calls.

Can't talk.

Why did you tell her?

That's my mom.

We're in a relationship, aren't we?

There's nothing to hide. Why keep it secret?

I don't want everyone to know about our thing.

My mom isn't everyone. She needs to know.

Don't tell her yet.

But... Uh...

And dinner... What's for dinner?

Xixi. Xixi!

- Granny. - Look at me.

How do I look in this dress?

Isn't that from our brand, Granny?

- You look fabulous in it! - I picked it up from your store.

Granny, how about I put on something similar

and go to the mall with you?

Great idea!

That's fantastic!

We haven't gone shopping together in a while.

- Yeah! Let's go! - Let's go! Let's go!

Look.

Be careful, Granny.

She's old but stylish.

- I agree. She's got good taste! - Yeah.

Xixi, I look okay in this dress, right?

Better than okay!

Excuse me.

May I ask, where did you get that outfit?

My mom's birthday is coming.

I'd like to get one for her.

The Average's Makeover? [The Average's Makeover]

That's right. The Average's Makeover.

As the name suggests, we pick the average on the streets, [Pick the Average]

[Select Clothes Give Makeovers] and give them makeovers.

[Public Transparent Random] We go public, transparent and random.

That's the best way I could think of

to prove our ability to design.

Brilliant! What's your inspiration?

It's Granny, actually.

Sometimes, people refuse a change of style

because they fear what others may think and if it will turn out well.

They're the targets who need our help.

We can demonstrate our strength and meanwhile, develop our brand.

- Two birds with one stone. - Indeed.

What do you need me to do?

- Send out the message. - Got it.

- Give me those. - Here.

Not good enough. Give her another one.

What do you think?

- Not bad. - What about this one?

- That one is better. - Okay.

- Doesn't she look good? - Yeah.

[CICI: The Average's Makeover wants you! Sign up now!]

[The Average's Makeover wants you! Sign up now to be a new you!]

Miss Ran, CICI is launching a program called The Average's Makeover.

They've got videos ready and reached out to the content farm to promote their program.

They must've racked their brain for it.

Inform them not to give CICI any exposure.

Okay. I'm on it.

It's late.

We should go back.

Maybe later.

I want to stay with her a bit longer.

Miss Gu's crisis won't end soon.

Her program, The Average's Makeover,

is hitting the wall.

Why?

I learned that all the Official Accounts shut the door to her.

At this point, your time should be put to better use.

There will be reporters from the TV station

tomorrow at the meeting.

If you spend too much time here and show up late,

it won't be worth it.

TV station?

[The Average's Makeover wants you! Sign up now to be a new you!]

Is this a dream?

Xixi! Xixi!

Xiaoya.

We're on the news!

Right behind us is a popular original brand, CICI.

To respond to the recent controversies, they're giving makeovers to the average people

and posting the videos online.

[Jiang Bei News] And how do they play out?

[Jiang Bei News] Let's ask random passersby.

[News Flash: CICI's Response] Have you watched the original brand,

[The Average's Makeover] CICI's makeover videos?

Yeah. We have.

Their design is amazing!

It's like magic!

Did the owner design every outfit in the store?

It's not as bad as they say online. Right?

The third outfit is my favorite. We came all the way to see for ourselves.

- That's true. - They all look pretty!

We did it!

What happened overnight?

It was no other than Yin Sichen.

Let me show you something.

Mr. Yin, your suit looks quite unique.

I heard your wife is a fashion designer.

Is it her work?

It's indeed her design.

[Jiang Bei News] She has her own signature

[Jiang Bei News] and whimsical ideas.

[Jiang Bei News] And she always incorporates them

[CICI's Response The Average's Makeover] into her life and work.

You two make a sweet couple.

I'm lucky to have her.

Other than that, Iced Americano has become his verified account.

Now, the whole world knows he fought for you against those trolls.

They call you two Couple of the Year.

Followers are flooding in to our account.

I can explain.

I didn't know it was you at the masquerade

and my words weren't addressed to you.

It was all a misunderstanding.

I never meant to draw a line between us.

Hell,

I even hoped there'd never be

such a thing between us.

I unfriended him

and didn't see all those messages.

Did he also not know I...?

Yin Sichen!

♫ Like a shooting star passing by, the night sky is lit up ♫

♫ I would never want you to fall like this ♫

You still keep this shirt?

I keep everything you made for me.

There's still coke on it, no?

So what? I got it covered.

That day at the masquerade...

♫ For you and me, love breaks the rule ♫

That day, I...

I know.

I just saw your messages.

♫ I protect you quietly, leave everything to me ♫

I just want you to know

there's no line between us whatsoever.

♫ Will never fall ♫

Let's have dinner together.

I'm going back to work.

See you tonight.

That's a date!

Stop it!

[You just paid 16,500 RMB with your credit card.]

Sorry, I can't make it. Something turned up last minute.

- I hope you can understand. - She canceled it?'

What could possibly trump our date?

Come in.

Hi, Sichen.

What brings you here?

Is everything okay?

I came to apologize.

What happened to Xixi was my fault.

I brought you your favorite, though.

Thanks.

Leave it to the side.

Aren't you going to taste it?

Rice noodles with clams!

Rice noodles with clams?

When we were abroad,

we'd go to that Chinese restaurant for your favorite rice noodles with clams

every time we finished the exercises for the final exam.

When you went to the men's room, I'd eat up

all the clams in your bowl.

One time, you caught me and said

you'd remember me for that forever.

That was a joke.

I had totally forgotten about it before you brought it up.

I still remember I was happy every day

because you were always with me.

Smells good.

You can't find it elsewhere.

It's custom-made.

Since when did you cook?

After you came back after graduation,

I still went to that place regularly

and made friends with their chef.

He taught me the skill.

Why did you learn to cook this dish in the first place?

Because you like it.

Back then, I thought

I'd make it for you every day once I was home,

but I probably came back too late.

That's fine.

I can still make it for you anytime you want.

- You don't have to... - Don't move!

Your vest went up.

[Lin Xiaoya] Gu Xixi's family is in trouble!

You know why I stole clams from your bowl?

Sichen, I haven't changed a bit.

I'm needed elsewhere. Gotta go.

I'll wait here for you.

No need. Enjoy the rice noodles.

I appreciate your work, but you can stop making them.

This way, please.

Excuse me.

Sorry, Miss, I called this beautician first.

What's going on? Is this how you treat your VIP?

Even VIPs got ranks.

I'll pay extra. I'll double it.

[Bank of China Private Banking] My husband gave me this secondary card

and put no limits on it.

You'll pay double? I'm intimidated.

Is that how much your face is worth? I'll pay triple.

- Quadruple. - Quintuple.

- Sextuple. - Deal!

She's all yours.

How dare you try to steal my beautician!

Are you new to salons?

How dare you steal someone else's husband and father!

Are you that cheap?

What did you say?

Are you... Are you Gu Jiaqiang's daughter?

That's right. I'm Gu Xixi.

Oh, that's you.

You look average.

What did Yin Sichen see in you?

Don't feel too good about yourself.

When you get old and gross, he'll dump you for sure!

I'm sorry, Miss Xu, but your card has been declined.

No way!

Your bill is 158,300 yuan.

Try again.

- Okay. - It'll still be declined.

That card got my name on it

and I've told the bank I had lost it.

You'll have to pay from your own pocket.

Gu Xixi, you set me up!

Yes, I did.

Or why would I take time to run into you?

Xu Qian, I'm warning you,

stay away from married men!

Aren't you ashamed of yourself calling my dad your husband?

He wanted it. He threw himself at me.

I know my dad is at fault,

but aren't you?

You're almost 50, but you said you're 30 online to scam married men.

You could be liable for fraud.

You're bluffing!

That's attempted assault.

You'll still be held responsible.

Are you okay?

You don't know Gu Xixi's true colors, do you?

She's an average and humble girl,

who must've tricked you into marrying her.

You really should look into her.

I bet your marriage is part of her plot.

You're right.

It is a plot.

I fell for Gu Xixi at first sight,

and then I deliberately plotted a plan to lead her right into my trap.

I went all out to win her heart and eventually, she had to marry me.

She's a homewrecker!

- She's having an affair with a married man. - Yeah!

How brazen she is!

I know. She doesn't look like one.

She'll be damned!

You...

Xu Qian, listen!

Your humiliation and embarrassment today

aren't even close to what my mom has suffered.

Fei'ang, you take it from here.

Read it or go to the police station.

Confession?

"I'm Xu Qian, female, 49 years old from Taiping District, Jiangbei Province.

I've divorced nine times and had 20 boyfriends.

I pretended to be single to seduce and scam married men.

I'm guilty. My sins are unforgivable."

Please don't turn me in to the police!

I'm begging you!

Read it 10,000 times.

Thanks.

Let's take Mom back to Meishan.

We owe you a big one.

Thank you.

It's the same as before.

- Mom. - Yeah?

Have a good night. I'll take care of the rest.

Well, if there's nothing else, I'm off.

It's too dark. You shouldn't be driving this late.

Just stay for the night.

- Mom. - Yeah?

Sichen still has work tomorrow.

That can wait.

Our house is too small for him.

Not at all. It's quite cozy.

As small as it is, there are still two bedrooms.

Mom, I'm sleeping with you tonight.

You can't! You're married.

I'm fine. Don't worry about me.

But Mom...!

All right, be good.

It's a long day. I'm going back to my room.

You kids don't stay up too late.

- Good night, Mom. - Good night.

Come on. Let's go to bed.

You...

Is this your old room?

You knew there's only one bed.

Why did you choose to stay?

What are you doing?

Going to sleep.

In my bed?

I can't sleep on the floor!

Wait, hold on. What now?

I can't sleep in my clothes.

I'll go get pajamas. Sit still.

These two are all I got.

This one is probably too small for you.

I've never worn this one because it's too big.

- You can have it. - You're messing with me, aren't you?

Take it or leave it.

Get changed. I'll go outside.

Hey, Gu Xixi...

Let me see.

That's it.

- Delete it. - I won't. Never!

You...
