[Episode 23]

I'm childish?

You're the one who's childish.

Besides, I recorded the video

to protect both of us.

I know.

So, once we've established

a new brand,

I'll find

a very good photographer

to take a very nice portrait of you.

Okay, then,

please.

But it depends on

what Mr. Shen would decide.

I'm wondering

if now

is a good time

to talk to them.

Because last time

I mentioned it to Chiyu,

she was quite against it.

So if Mr. Shen knows

that I want to poach you,

will he raise the price?

There is always the possibility.

How about this?

You talk to Mr. Shen alone first

and see what he feels about it.

Okay.

Hello.

Is this Lijia United?

Yes.

But we're closed.

I'm not here for surgery.

I just want to ask

if this is Ms. Lin Qianyu's company?

Yes.

You are?

I'm her friend.

We should go to an art exhibition together.

But in the end,

she didn't show up.

I don't have her contact information either.

I only know this place.

So I came to see.

I was worried

that something would happen to her.

How about I call her for you?

Okay.

She didn't answer her phone.

Have you contacted her recently?

No.

It's a little strange.

Do you know where she lives?

Should we come check up on her?

It's a bit concerning.

How about this, Ziyou?

You go find Lin Qianyu,

and I'll wait here.

When Mr. Shen comes,

I can talk to him.

How about I go with you?

No need.

Why don't you

give me your number?

I'll tell you if anything happens.

Okay.

OK

Qianyu.

I need to talk to you.

You didn't answer my call.

So I'm now coming to your house.

Is anyone home?

I'm coming in.

Lin Qianyu.

Are you home?

Lin Qianyu.

Why are you here?

What happened to your face?

Did someone hit you?

Don't cry.

It's okay.

Did... Let me see.

Let me see.

It's okay.

Did Shen Chengfeng do this to you?

Did he hit you?

No.

We had a quarrel and...

And I fell.

You fell, Lin Qianyu?

Your mouth is bleeding!

Go! Go to see a doctor with me!

Don't...

Don't move!

You can hurt your arm like this in a fall?

You fell on your own?

Wait.

I'll call the police.

Are you crazy?

It's a family matter.

What's the use of calling the police?

It's the domestic violence.

If there is a first time, there will be a second time.

And it will get more and more violent.

You didn't know?

What should I do?

You haven't thought through this. OK.

Can we go to the hospital first?

We need to identify your injury.

You have to have this identification.

Listen to me！

If you two come to that point

in the future,

it may help you

gain custody of Shen Xin.

Do you understand?

Come to what point?

Get divorced like you?

I'm not as independent

and capable as you.

If I got divorced and had a child with me,

what should I do?

What should I do!

You always say,

"What should I do?"

You always run away every time

you have trouble!

Whether it's at home or work!

Didn't you notice?

Running away

will only make things worse.

You know what? Let me tell you.

If he's in a bad mood

or you have a fight,

don't fuel his anger.

Remember what I told you.

Leave here as soon as possible.

You can come to my place anytime.

My phone

is always on.

Did you hear me, Lin Qianyu?

Dr. Nie.

You asked to meet me

in such a hurry today.

I can guess

the reason.

Lijia United

has indeed come to

the most difficult time

in its development phase.

Right now,

we don't have the strength

to keep

such an excellent talent like you.

Yes, since you've guessed it,

I'll cut to the chase.

Go ahead.

I've decided

to leave Lijia United.

But don't worry.

I will pay

the breach of contract damages.

Thank you, Mr. Nie.

I'd...

Dr. Nie,

did someone

called Deng Weiwei come to you?

No.

It's not Deng Weiwei.

Could it be...

I see.

No matter who it is,

you must have

found a new job.

But for this matter,

I don't think we can just

settle this

so easily with a penalty.

We're in the contract period.

And you've already started

to contact other hospitals.

The contract can't restrict you from doing this.

But morally speaking,

what you did

is not ethical.

What do you think?

Yes.

But I

haven't talked

with any hospitals.

No matter which hospital it is,

it doesn't matter.

Anyway, the friend behind you

must have paid

a higher price

to poach you away.

Otherwise, why would you be willing to

break the contract and give me

a large sum of compensation.

Shen Chengfeng,

if you dare

hurt Lin Qianyu again,

I will try my best

to make you pay for this.

What...

What do you mean?

What do you mean

I hurt Lin Qianyu?

What are you talking about?

Do you think I'm blind?

I can't see

her wounds, right?

You mean her wounds?

Ziyou,

I know you and Lin Qianyu

are good friends,

best friends.

I've always wanted to

talk about this with you.

I hope you can

spend more time with her.

She has been

very edgy recently.

She's so stubborn.

It's already

getting out of hand.

Do you know?

So you mean her injuries

were caused by her psychological problem?

Yes.

It's all because of Xia Ling.

She always talks nonsense at home

and smashes things.

Last time,

she accidentally knocked herself down.

You can't just listen to

her words.

You have to listen to me.

You can't frame me.

Right?

Anyway,

she has become

very moody recently.

It has begun

since you resigned.

After your

famous speech,

her condition

became worse.

I think you are the one

who put her in such a state.

Is it because of you

that hundreds of people in Lijia United

have lost their jobs?

Also,

it is you who want to poach Nie Yunze

away from me,

right?

You don't leave me any leeway.

Listen, Kang Ziyou.

Everything you and Lin Qianyu have

is from me.

Kang Ziyou.

Don't act like you're crazy.

Listen.

Don't you dare touch her again!

Try it!

I dare you!

Don't go crazy.

Let go of me!

Why are you stopping me?

Shouldn't that bastard be beaten up?

Calm down.

Can you save Lin Qianyu

even if you beat him?

Calm down.

Should I just stand back

and let him bully Lin Qianyu?

Calm down, OK?

Kang Ziyou.

You're only venting your anger

when you're acting like this.

You can't help Lin Qianyu like this.

And you may goad Mr. Shen

to vent more of his anger on Lin Qianyu.

What we should do now

is think of a way

to

help Lin Qianyu leave him.

In this way,

she wouldn't have to be bullied

by Mr. Shen.

Mr. Chen wants to invest in the cosmetic medicine business.

So Lijia United

is a choice, right?

Yes.

At least this is the right direction

to solve the problem.

All right.

Don't be angry.

Calm down.

Calm down.

Hello, Ms. Zhong.

Where are you and Xinxin?

No need. I'll pick you up.

Sister.

Your face...

What happened to your face?

Why are you here?

You didn't show up

in the gallery.

I am worried about you.

So

I followed behind your friend's car

and came here.

I'm fine.

You should go back now.

How did you get hurt?

Why did you hurt your hand too?

Where else did you get hurt?

I'm really fine.

I just accidentally bumped into something.

Impossible.

How could it be?

How could you bump yourself like this?

Did something happen to you?

Tell me.

I'll help you.

I'm fine.

Did your husband

hurt you?

Should we call the police?

Let me take you to the hospital.

Don't

bother me again, okay?

This is my family matter.

It has nothing to do with you.

Yes!

Your family has nothing to do with me!

But please

protect yourself.

Only by protecting yourself

can you protect the one you love.

Wang Meng,

this position

should be yours.

Why did Meng Yushan get it?

Is it Meng?

Dr. Meng.

Congratulations, Dr. Meng.

We should call you Professor Meng from now on.

The professorship

is really yours!

Let me tell you.

All of us

have been very supportive of you.

The young doctors

should learn from you.

When are you free?

So our department

can celebrate for you.

Professor Meng.

Professor Meng.

Dr. Meng has been

under a lot of pressure lately.

If I were you, I would be under a lot of pressure too.

Because I'm not capable enough.

It's still in the announcement period.

You're already drawing a line

with low-ranking people like us.

Dr. Meng.

What did you say back then?

You said you published your paper

through your own study,

and became the attending physician

through your hard work.

Now,

in front of so many people,

why don't you say that again?

You used to talk a lot.

Didn't you say

I threw myself at him?

So you are the old hand

pulling the strings.

What makes you think

you can trample on

other people's efforts with impunity?

She is the shameless one!

And I can't say it!

Forget it.

-Don't make it worse. -Meng Yushan.

Don't let me find something on you.

Forget it.

Vice Director Han,

this

was all because of me.

I don't deserve this position.

Please withdraw

your appointment

and leave it to someone more competent.

Dr. Meng,

Your appointment

was decided after investigation and discussion

by the hospital leaders.

To be honest,

according to your conditions,

you should have been promoted last year.

If that's the reason

you want to back out,,

that's not

the Meng Yushan I know.

I remember you...

Let me put it another way.

You may not know.

I've been watching you

since you were in medical school.

From your undergrad program to your graduate program

to a clinic doctor,

I know

all of your difficulties,

and I've been through them too.

I think

you are not the one who will give up easily.

Thank you, Vice Director Han.

Thank you for your encouragement.

You're welcome.

I'm telling the truth.

You came to me today.

On the surface,

it's you who can't stand

the pressure of the public's opinion.

In fact,

you have met a bigger problem in reality.

I...

I'm not in trouble.

It's only because of me.

Meng.

I wrote down the teaching materials

about behaviors when you were in school.

Do you think I can't tell?

This is not like you.

You would never

make such a decision

if you hadn't encountered an intractable problem.

Giving up

is not in your behavioral mode.

Just like how we will treat patients.

If you don't tell me,

I can't help you.

How about this?

You haven't used up

all your annual leave yet, right?

Use it then.

Be with your family

and think about it.

If you're ready,

come to me.

Mr. Zheng, you came at the right time.

I was looking for you.

When are you free?

I would like to invite you

and Miss Kang Ziyou to dinner.

We'll be having a comic con soon.

We would like to invite Miss Kang

to be our spokesperson.

Why are you buying us dinner?

We don't deserve any reward.

Most importantly, Kang Ziyou has been...

She's quite popular.

Yes.

Many people want to invite her.

She may not have time.

Please, Mr. Zheng,

can you help us

talk to her?

I'll figure something out.

Okay.

The reason I'm here today

is to ask you

to do me a favor.

Go ahead.

[Emergency]

Honey,

it's my fault today.

When I came back today,

I saw you

going to leave me with our kid.

I was so scared.

I thought you and

Xinxin were going to abandon me.

That's why I acted on impulse

and hit you.

Why don't you come back first?

Okay?

Let's talk when you're back.

Xinxin and I are waiting for you

to come back for dinner.

Say something to Mom,

OK?

OK.

OK. Come on.

Mom, come back.

Dad has bought some delicious cake,

and we're waiting for you to come home.

Mom, don't be angry anymore.

I have punished Dad

for you

and beat him for you.

Dad and I miss you so much.

Mom, come back.

Yu Ao.

What's wrong?

I'm sorry.

What's wrong?

I don't want to do the injury identification.

Why?

Why?

He hurt you so badly.

When this happens for the first time,

it will happen again.

Don't be afraid of him.

After we've done the identification,

we'll call the police.

Then what?

Am I going to get a divorce?

I have a son.

I don't want to lose my current life.

And I don't want to lose my son either.

All of you are trying to

think of a way to help me.

Do you think

I haven't thought about these?

None of you

understand my current situation.

I don't want

to live like this either.

But what can I do?

Maybe

I am

a vain and cowardly woman.

I want to

live like this.

This is my family matter.

Please stay out of it.

I know

it's hard to make a decision.

I'm not you.

I'm not in your shoes and haven't

gone through what you've gone through.

But I know one thing clearly.

The one who drew my attention

in the gallery

is not a cowardly

or vain woman.

You're brave.

You just need a little time.

If you need me,

I'm always here.

I noticed that you've been

in a bad mood recently.

I just want you to be happy.

Do you remember?

Who are you?

When we first met,

you were on the phone,

and you fell into

my camera.

I wondered where

such a beautiful angel came from.

This is the first time

that we met.

Working and doing make up on the wedding car.

I think my wife

must be the first.

You're the only one in the world who does that.

Actually, I really like

this photo.

This one

is what you look like now.

I don't know

when

you stopped smiling.

I don't see

brilliant smiles on your face anymore.

Actually, Shan,

you really don't have to

put so much pressure on yourself.

I want you

to be joyful

and happy every day.

Shan,

I think

we're becoming more and more distant

from each other.

Sometimes when I look at your eyes,

I don't see myself

in your eyes.

I still hope that

I'm the person you can rely on

and you can trust.

I also hope

we can go back to

what we used to be.

Zheng Qiong.

I may not be

who you think I am.

Some people

can't always be perfect.

Even if someone is perfect,

maybe they're fake.

Maybe it was just an act

that suited your tastes.

What are you talking about?

I want to say...

I...

Shan.

Zheng.

Dad.

I thought

you wouldn't come today.

Of course I'd come.

I must come.

Your photos are so good.

Thank you, Dad.

Mr. Zheng.

I have some details

to discuss with you.

Are you free?

We...

Your work is more important.

Go ahead.

I'll ask Shan

to show me around.

Okay.

Go back to work.

Okay.

Dad, I...

I'll be right back.

Okay.

Dad.

What brings you here?

Is Uncle Zhao okay?

Uncle Zhao is fine.

He's quite stable.

I...

Zheng said

there's a photography exhibition today.

I'm here to take a look.

Shan.

I want to

say that,

a few days ago,

what I said

was too harsh.

Zheng kept telling me

that you just got promoted.

You're under a lot of pressure at work.

I shouldn't

put more pressure on you.

I feel

very sorry.

Dad.

There's no need for this.

Do you think I

haven't done enough?

I'm here to apologize to you.

If you think

I'm not sincere enough,

you can ask me to

write a self-reflection

Dad...

Or you can lock me up.

I'm really not

a good father.

I can't

be as patient

as your Uncle Zhao.

I'm a roughneck.

I've never been educated.

-I just want you to forgive me. -Dad.

Shan.

Dad.

It's okay.

You...

Go on.

Go on.

Dad.

Dad, you...

Let's have a meal together.

Well...

Dad...

What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

Let's go home.

What were you telling me

before Dad came?

Are you okay?

I feel...

-I'm a little nervous. -It's OK.

Just now,

I couldn't control my emotions.

Don't worry.

You know me.

I'll be fine soon.

If something happened to you,

tell me.

I'm fine.

I'll be fine soon.

Let's go home.

Come in.

Mr. Chen, Ms. Kang is here.

Okay, you may leave.

Ms. Kang, look.

I'm really sorry.

I have a last minute

guest.

It's okay.

We can make another appointment.

It's okay.

We're almost done talking.

Come in, please.

Okay.

You have a guest.

I'll get going.

Okay.

Miss Wan.

Ziyou?

Brother.

Why didn't you tell me

that you're meeting Ziyou?

Right.

You know each other, right?

I almost forgot.

Yes.

This is Wan Li,

my cousin.

She strongly

recommended you.

In that case,

don't leave.

Sit down and talk to Ms. Kang.

Have a seat.

Okay.

Ms. Kang, please take a seat.

Okay.

I heard about you.

Ziyou, here's the thing.

A friend of mine

introduced a doctor to me.

He said he could offer a 40% discount for a thread lift.

It happened that

your place was suspended too.

I went because I was greedy.

I didn't expect the doctor

to give me

non-absorbable non-protein threads.

My face is ruined now.

Can you take off your mask

and let me have a look?

Did you go for further consultations

at proper cosmetic medical centers?

I did.

But they all said

they might not be able to do it.

Your current situation

is quite complicated.

The operation is quite risky.

So I think

those doctors

don't want to take the risk.

But I can do it.

Ziyou,

you must help me.

If you don't save me,

I'll be ruined.

Let me think of a way.

Yes, don't worry.

You recommended her

to me too,

right?

You of all people should trust Ms. Kang.

Brother, Ziyou.

You two must have

other things to talk about.

I'll leave you to it.

You must call me.

Okay, don't worry.

Don't worry.

I’m leaving.

Rest assured.

Have a good rest.

Call me if anything happens.

Okay.

Sit.

Okay.

How is it?

Do you have an answer?

And I believe

it's not bad news.

Why are you so sure?

If you refuse me,

a call would suffice.

You don't have to come in person.

Since you came in person,

you must agree with my proposal,

right?

During this time,

I've thought about it.

I'm very honored

to accept your offer.

But

I have a request.

What is it?

Say it.

I hope

you can invest in Lijia United.

Lijia United

is the cosmetic medical center

you used to work at?

Yes.

In terms of scale,

it's not too bad.

But recently,

because of the thing with Xia Ling,

it was badly affected.

It's not easy

to revive it.

Mr. Chen,

please listen to my thoughts.

Go ahead.

the reputation of Lijia United was damaged.

So now,

it's in a critical situation.

But it's a good opportunity

to leave the past behind

and rebuild the future.

The experience it accumulated in the past

will not disappear.

This is something that

no large-scale cosmetic medical center

in the market

can do.

Go on.

I've been in Lijia United for ten years.

I saw it go from nothing to something,

from glory to disappointment.

No one knows the potential

of this company better than me.

Xia Ling's case

has caused a serious blow.

But everyone in the industry knows

that the medical dispute

has nothing to do

with anything technical.

From another perspective,

because it was Xia Ling,

it also served as

advertising.

To be honest, many people

consulted me about

Xia Ling's treatment.

But they don't trust

the skills of other companies.

So I think this is really

a good chance

for Lijia United

to rise again

or even become better.

Have you heard of

ACMA, Mr. Chen?

ACMA,

it's the association that was set up

by the US Dermatology Association

and US Cosmetic Medicine Association, right?

When I attended was abroad

attending a forum,

I heard them talk about it.

It's the most authoritative association

in the US for cosmetic medicine.

Its youngest council member

is Nie Yunze.

Dr. Nie is also in Lijia United.

Ms. Kang.

What you said

is quite attractive.

But I still have

some reservations

about Lijia United's branding.

How about this?

Give me some time.

I'll think about it.

Okay, no problem.

Kang Ni.

Have some water.

Give it to him.

Yes.

Give it to him.

Why?

Excuse me.

Have some water.

No.

Thank you.

Forget it.

We are classmates.

It was a misunderstanding.

Don't be mad at each other, okay?

Chen Zhe,

there's a part that I keep misplaying.

Take a look.

Okay, let me see.

This is the part.

Ms. Zhao always says

my rhythm is wrong.

But when I reach this part,

I can't help it.

I don't notice it at all.

I really think it's fine.

There's a small problem.

But it's not a big problem.

Can you show us?

Yes, that's right.

Kang Ni.

Are you done practising?

Almost.

Let's go.

I'll take you to a fun place.

Where?

Shen Hang,

Let me tell you.

Ms. Zhao will teach you for three years at most.

But playing music is a lifetime endeavour.

Let's go.

Where are we going?

To play.

You practice first.

Hurry up.

It's here.

-Here? -Come here.

This is it.

Let's go in.

Here.

How is it? Isn't it awesome?

So many records.

Of course.

I picked this place.

Can I bring it back?

What are you thinking?

This one.

This looks good.

Look at this side.

Look at this.

Isn't this pretty?

It's like an oil painting.

-Wait for me. -There are many pretty ones.

You just didn't find them.

Second Aunt.

Well...

I'm sorry.

I was really afraid

I might say something wrong.

You didn't have to lie to me.

No, no.

It was subconscious.

After all,

my mom's last boyfriend

was dumped

by her because

he was unhappy

that I lived with her.

I'm really fine.

You can tell me directly.

If I didn't confirm it

and told you

and you really minded my presence,

I would feel very sad.

Because I would feel like

I'm a very unnecessary child.

Because of me,

my mom missed out on a lot.

I too hope that she can be with

someone who makes

her happy.

Don't think too much.

You're not unnecessary.

Really?

Of course.

It's okay.

Kid.

Don't mess around if you don't know how to play.

You'll have to pay if you break it.

Who says I don't know how to?

Can you play it?

I'll know if I try.

Go ahead.

This guitar is not tuned.

Uncle,

you know quite a lot about this.

Then why did you let the boss

put two out-of-tune guitars here?

You'll have to ask him.

Let me tune it for you.

Uncle Nie,

you’re pretty good.

Actually,

if you have time next time,

you can come here.

I'll help you rehearse.

Really?

Great.

Thank you, Uncle Nie.

Uncle.

Can we go play now?

Go.

Let's go.

Mom, what's wrong?

Mr. Chen has a cousin.

She's an old friend of mine,

an old client.

I don't know

where she went to do a treatment

and ruined her face.

She's disfigured.

It was so scary.

Now, she found me.

We are friends.

I can't leave her be.

But she...

No doctor

would be willing to do her surgery.

Uncle Nie can't do it either?

Of course he can.

He's so skilled.

But

this operation is quite risky.

No doctor dares to say

that it would definitely be a success.

That's why the doctors don't want to do it.

If they fail,

it will affect

their reputation.

I don't want him to take the risk.

You are so biased towards my little nephew.

After all, we used to be...

former colleagues,

and friends and whatnot.

But you didn't ask

him before

making a decision for him.

What if he's

very, very confident?

One more thing.

He said, every time I look for him,

it's for work.

I don't want him to think

I'm using him.
