Shanshan, what are you up to?

Come to the studio to celebrate the holiday.

(Who else is coming?)

(If it gets too crowded, count me out.)

Just you, me, and Jia Zhen.

The three of us.

I snagged some movie tickets.

Let's catch a movie tonight.

(In that case, I'll pass.)

(You guys enjoy the movie.)

(I've got work to catch up on at home.)

Today is a holiday. Take a break.

Being alone at home is so dull.

(I finally got into the groove.)

(You guys go ahead.)

(Alright, I'll talk to you later.)

Shanshan said he got some work to finish.

That's good to hear.

It's nice having something important to focus on.

Then let's celebrate together, just the two of us.

Okay.

I'm telling you, let's forget about that.

Things we haven't set up,

let's pack them away for next year.

Just the two of us, right?

The vibe is already amazing.

So vibrant and colorful.

Happy New Year!

I should lie down for a bit.

Feeling a bit dizzy.

(I'm sorry, my dear.)

(I couldn't be with you)

(on New Year's Eve again.)

Are you going to be busy again?

(As the holidays roll around,)

(we get insanely hectic.)

New Year, Chinese New Year, or Valentine's Day,

I celebrated none of them in years.

I had already finished work for the day,

but my boss called me back in.

No worries.

(Jin Ran, the boss wants to see you.)

(Yes, coming.)

I'm going to hang up the phone.

My boss wants to see me.

Go on. Happy New Year.

Hey, Ran.

This one's for you.

Courier from the front desk.

A courier?

Open it quickly.

Where's the packaging?

I already unwrapped it.

Come back here.

Who sent it?

I have no idea.

Who's the mystery gift-giver?

It's me.

The color is so outdated.

This style just

doesn't work for me.

I have absolutely no clue who sent it.

I wonder what he was thinking.

What's got you so thrilled, huh?

I had a feeling

you would come to congratulate me.

Of course, I had to drop by and congratulate you.

Now, the whole of Su City

knows about Borman.

They all know you're the best.

Now

is just the beginning.

I'm going to reach

the top of the world, no doubt about it.

When that time comes,

I will ensure

the whole world knows that

I love you.

Why have you yet to come back?

Do you know

what today's date is?

You, as a father, never spend time with your kid.

How could you say this?

How can I be there for him?

Chenchen is your own son,

not a kid you found on the street.

Chenchen, you're drawing?

You're getting really good at drawing.

Today's your birthday.

Here's some cash for you.

You can buy whatever you want.

Grandpa will head to a meeting

at the company in a while.

Can't be with you today.

Happy birthday.

(Welcome to my party)

Hey, little bear.

When it's your birthday,

will your mom and dad

be there to celebrate with you?

Will they join you to cut the cake?

Will they join you to have cake or make a wish?

I'm feeling really sad.

Today is my birthday.

But no one came to celebrate with me.

I'm so devastated.

Chenchen.

Where are you?

I heard it's your birthday today.

I brought you a present.

And a cake too.

Can you guess who I am?

Little bear.

Chenchen.

Give my nose a little touch.

Mommy.

Let's light the candles.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Make a wish.

Okay.

-Done. -Let's do it together.

Okay.

Let me go!

Chenchen.

Chenchen.

Chenchen.

Let me go!

Release my mother!

Chenchen.

Chenchen.

Let go of my mother!

Let me go.

Chenchen.

Release my mother!

Chenchen.

Let me go.

Let go.

Come back with me.

Release my mother.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday.

Grandma.

Today will be tomatoes and scrambled eggs.

Tomatoes and scrambled eggs again?

Why do you always make tomatoes and scrambled eggs?

Let's try something different today.

What do you suggest?

Chinese cabbage.

Just a simple stir-fry.

After you cut it,

put it in the pan and add a little vinegar.

Stir it on one side.

Be careful not to spill onto the vegetable.

Okay.

Then,

let's have stir-fried greens with sliced pork.

Go to the third store over there.

Buy a piece of pork

and ask them to slice it for you.

They'll give you some lard

for free, you know.

Got it, Grandma.

Alright, here you go.

Okay.

Thank you.

Then I'll be going.

I've cooked it just for you.

Cooked especially for me?

No need for all this trouble, Grandma.

Grandma, I meant it.

It's a perk for members.

It's hot. Be careful.

Watch out.

Thanks.

It smells so good!

Of course.

I started cooking when I set up my stall

in the early morning.

All the nutrients are in the broth.

Give it a try, will you?

Let me taste it.

It's delicious.

Isn't it tasty?

Absolutely.

When you go back, get a mature hen

and learn how to stew it.

If you're busy, just stew it for the broth.

It's not a hassle, and it's nutritious.

Did you hear me?

I heard you, Grandma.

Now, my mind is occupied with this broth.

It's so delicious.

Get you a drumstick.

I don't want a drumstick.

Just a small portion.

Just a tiny bit.

I've already had

enough of this broth.

Come by often, then.

Come over whenever you want some soup.

So, will there be chicken soup every time I come?

Of course.

Let me get this straight.

You and Liu Xia had a brief encounter.

And you were still a kid back then.

No, I'm talking about maturity level.

We all have dreams that make us feel alive.

A beautiful dream?

De.

You've been talking a lot lately.

I'm not implying anything.

I'm genuinely worried about you.

I'm afraid your expectations

might not match the reality.

If you ask me,

you should listen to the chairman.

Find a good psychological counselor

and talk to them.

She is the only one

who can cure my illness.

No.

Your condition had improved

before you returned here, hadn't it?

I've read the reports.

It's likely you're dealing with

mental health problems.

Remember when you first returned?

You were full of energy.

Look at yourself now.

You're isolating yourself again.

You really need to talk to a psychological counselor.

It is not necessary to be Liu Xia.

You find her yet refuse to see her.

You're deliberately making things difficult for yourself.

I don't really understand you anymore.

I don't want to maintain

a doctor-patient relationship with her this time.

I'm looking for a different approach.

I'm not a kid anymore.

I've grown up.

In the past,

she gave me the courage and strength

to fight against my illness.

During my treatment abroad,

she sent me three emails.

I believe she hasn't forgotten about me.

De.

She's not doing well right now.

I can lend her a hand.

Just like she once helped me.

Can you relate to what I'm saying?

Do you have feelings for her?

Xing.

You have no idea.

Psychological counselor is

a niche but popular profession these days.

Everybody, whether they're sick or not,

likes to seek out a psychological counselor and have a little chat.

It's pretty interesting.

Jingyun.

You brought this up with me...

Alright.

I won't beat around the bush.

Can we have an episode

on psychological counseling

for the show you guys sponsor?

Isn't it up to the TV station to decide

the guests and the shows?

You guys are the sponsors.

The station will definitely consider your opinions carefully.

Don't give me an official response.

I'm asking you.

Are we friends?

Of course.

Well, I'll be straight with you.

My sister's a psychological counselor.

I see.

So I am thinking to

give her a boost.

Can you lend a hand?

Alright.

I'll head back first and reporting it.

But,

I can't make any promises.

What's there to report anyway?

It is not a big deal.

You can handle it.

I wouldn't dare to speak for the company without thinking.

Look, there's nothing to worry about.

Trust me.

I'll keep this in mind.

Really?

Of course.

Alright then.

I'll message you the details on WeChat later.

Got to go.

I'll treat you to a meal sometime.

Goodbye.

This flower...

Sorry. My bad.

You scared the crap out of me.

Why are you being so sneaky?

I didn't know you were busy.

I am so sorry.

You saw I was busy.

And yet, you walked in.

How could you...

I came to chat with you.

Isn't this a perfect balance of work and leisure?

Don't bother me.

Don't worry about it.

It's alright.

No, thanks.

What's on your mind? Just spill it.

Nothing.

I just swung by to have a chat.

Look at you.

You sure it's nothing?

Yeah, of course.

Just get out of here then.

Look at you.

Well...

I bumped into Secretary Xing

in the hallway just now.

And we were talking about Profession Reality.

We both think that this show

is incredibly well-made.

It's absolutely fantastic.

You truly deserve your reputation

as a seasoned TV professional.

You really know what the audience wants.

The grasp is truly spot-on.

It's...

Enough with the flattery.

What's the matter? Just spit it out.

It's not flattery.

It's genuine.

Really?

Yeah.

Spill it.

Mr. Xing

wants to recommend someone.

A psychological counselor.

What do you think about that?

I'll give my opinion first.

I think it's brilliant.

Why is that so?

First of all, this profession is very mysterious.

The audience must be very...

The audience must be very interested

and want to know more about it, right？

Furthermore, nowadays, the stress on people can be overwhelming.

Some people are not aware of their mental health problems.

And others...

And others

do not know where to seek help when they face those problems.

Through this program,

we can give the audience an insight of this industry.

What do you think?

As recommended by Secretary Xing?

Yes.

Then, why are you the one who came to tell me?

No, you see,

he's the sponsor of the show.

Telling you this directly

is like stuffing people into the show.

He just wants me to probe your intentions

and mention it to the director in advance.

I think they'll contact you in a few days.

Alright.

I know.

You may leave now.

So, do you agree or not?

- Alright, fine. - This idea is really good.

Okay, okay.

When you come in next time, don't forget to knock.

Take your time to consider it.

You shouldn't water the flowers too much.

Shanshan, you're doing great.

You've had a breakthrough.

What breakthrough?

I really like the plot

in this latest episode that you edited.

Especially the male lead,

he's simply a ray of light on campus.

A popular guy,

handsome and righteous,

with a hint of mischief.

In short, he's perfect.

It reminds me of

the most attractive guy in my high school days.

Back then,

I used to watch him play basketball every Friday.

The most attractive guy in your high school days.

Didn't you say Jia Zhen was your first love?

That's a different story.

It didn't stop me from admiring handsome guys.

However, this female lead's character

is a bit too perfect.

Not favorable,

and it can easily provoke jealousy.

You can make a change.

Someone who's more ordinary

or even a little foolish.

No.

Being too foolish won't work.

Someone who has a humble family background.

Is that all?

Although the female lead seems to be perfect now

with a popular girl image,

there will be a plot twist later on.

What's the plot twist?

Everyone will abandon her.

No one will care about her.

And I'll be the only one who stays by her side silently.

You?

No, I mean Gu Xuyang.

Gu Xuyang in the script.

Sounds like there's a lot of ups and downs.

The male lead also has a deep love for the female lead.

I'm just afraid it has a great opening, but the quality drops later.

If the story becomes too heavy,

the flow can be affected.

The flow won't be affected.

Rest assured.

There are still many elements

and plots that I haven't included yet.

What are the elements?

I can't tell you yet.

Is it necessary

to keep it a secret from me?

I've finished reading them in one go.

No, it's just that my ideas now are all over the place.

I haven't organized them properly yet.

When I'm done organizing them,

I'll write and show it to you again,

alright?

By the way,

has Jia Zhen read it?

How did he think after reading it?

Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?

Of course I want to know the truth.

What's the point of listening to lies?

Then you can't expose that it was me who told you.

I promise I won't expose it.

Jia Zhen

showed the outline to the client.

The client gave him

three thumbs up right away.

They even invited him for dinner tomorrow night.

He should be pretty happy now in his office.

Really?

- Amazing. - I'm heading back now.

I'll not chat with you anymore.

Let me ask him how he plans to celebrate tonight.

Hey,

do you mean that

you're not including me in the celebration?

Aren't you filled with inspiration now?

You'd better hurry and continue writing.

I'm leaving.

Hey, after all, I'm the author of the script.

You guys are taking me too lightly.

Tonight,

leave the time

for the two of us.

I'll treat you next time.

I'm leaving.

What? Next time?

Next time.

Yuan Yuan, Yuan Yuan!

- What's the matter? - Sis, come here.

Thank you, thank you.

You're too diligent.

How can you use this towel to wipe my bike?

You should use this one.

That one will scratch the paint.

Look, can you see it?

You've scratched it.

It's so dusty, so I wiped it for you.

It's okay for it to be dusty.

What's the matter of having a little dust on it?

When you're dealing with leather,

you'll have to use the specialized cleaning product.

You can't wipe it with just anything.

You care about it so much,

but I've never seen you ride it before.

I asked a friend to buy it for me.

This bike can't be ridden on the road.

Is this fake?

No, it's not. Definitely not.

This is a real bike.

It's cheap, around 70 to 80 thousand.

For the type that can be driven on road,

it costs several hundred thousand.

It's just a decoration and it costs 70 to 80 thousand?

Yuan Yuan, you don't understand.

I've bought this thing a long time ago.

It's been sitting in the warehouse.

That's why it's so dusty.

Now that we have a big place,

I definitely have to display it.

You know,

people who ride bikes have their own circle.

Buying this thing

is like a ticket to join them.

You know.

There are several group chats on my phone.

The members are all industry elites.

There are big shots, celebrities,

and also those famous producers and directors.

Everyone likes bikes.

If you're not part of it,

you don't have anything to talk about.

Do you understand?

Well, I haven't seen them inviting you for a ride either.

You have a narrow view.

Don't you know that we have all the time in the world?

All the time in the world.

Have you ever been on a motorcycle?

Nope.

No, wait, you have.

In your hometown.

Those rickshaws.

Get lost.

How about taking you to have a feel of this cool guy?

Here.

What are you doing?

Equipping, of course.

Is that necessary?

Absolutely.

It's about the sense of occasion.

Gloves.

How about this pair?

What's the difference?

- What do you mean? - Put it back. Don't touch anything.

How long have you had it here?

Move aside.

These pants are a bit tight.

Come up.

I'm not going on it.

What if it falls over?

It won't.

Give me your hand.

Come on.

It won't fall, right?

It won't.

Even someone who's weighing over 100kg got on.

Hurry up, come on.

Step here, that's right.

- Come on, one, two, three. - One, two, three.

Sit properly.

Give me your hand. Hold onto my waist.

Hold onto my waist.

That's right. Cross your fingers.

Hold on tight.

You scared me.

Now it's starting.

Starting.

Are you ready?

Let's go.

Now we're on

the highway.

Over 200 miles per hour.

Over 200 miles per hour?

That's right.

Turn right.

Right, this way is right.

It's done.

Liu Xia.

Liu Xia.

She hasn't come back yet.

This is her best friend's house.

I know.

Are we going up?

Are you ready to meet her?

Let me tell you.

The one who did that was definitely a pro.

It was so fast. In just two hours,

all those negative news were deleted.

Also, for the account that first...

For the account that was first posted,

all its contents have been deleted.

Let me look it up for you.

The account has been banned!

It's banned!

Serves him right for criticizing you.

I'm more excited than you.

Cyberbullying. The problem has been solved.

It's a big deal!

It's such a big deal, and you don't have any reaction.

That's good.

You didn't do it yourself, right?

How is that possible?

I'm not that good.

That's true.

Ran, can you help me with something?

Eat faster.

This thing is giving me a headache from the smell.

It smells good.

Suddenly, I have this idea.

That is... I'm just saying.

Just like those romance dramas.

The rich beau or the bossy CEO

saw your photos on the internet.

And you're somewhat attractive, right?

Then, he looked at your photos online

and said, "Beautiful girl. I like it."

And then it's love at first sight.

He waited for you to get into trouble.

And when you're in trouble,

he stepped up

and helped you to solve your problems.

I think the story I made up

is pretty good.

It's not bad.

What do you think?

If there really was such a person,

I just want to slap him now.

Why?

Where were you earlier?

I was in such a difficult situation,

and he only show up now.

Maybe it's because

I think that you're not in big trouble,

thinking that you're doing fine.

The most important thing is

you're staying with Qi Lianshan.

How inconvenient

and awkward might he feel?

What if...

What if there's something between the two of you?

- Stop, stop, stop. - The two of you live together...

Stop.

I'm just cohabitating with Qi Lianshan.

Cohabitating?

Co-renting, co-renting.

Are you guys in a cohabitating relationship?

A co-renting relationship.

A cohabitating relationship?

Just co-renting.

I know, I know.

A co-renting relationship.

Not a cohabitating relationship.

Just co-renting, not cohabitating.

- Co-renting. - No problem at all.

I know.

Qi Lianshan

said he wanted to find a new place.

Did he find one? Ask him.

Ask.

Ask, ask.

No, he's been busy lately.

Busy with what?

He can still find a new place although he's busy.

And I also have my own troubles to worry about.

I don't have time to care about him.

That's true.

Anyway, our counseling center

hasn't been taking any new clients recently.

I'll let him off this time.

It's really delicious.

Can't you stand the smell?

I just have a headache today.

Go ahead and eat. It's okay.

Then, I'll stay away from you.

Liu Xia.

Where did you go?

It's so late.

What can she do?

Why are you worried about her?

After all, we live under the same roof.

We're neighbors too.

She's already a grown person.

What can happen to her at night?

Before this,

a guy was hounding her for debt.

What? Do you have money?

Can you help her to repay?

She must have her own reasons

why she didn't want to involve the police.

She's facing difficulties in her career now,

and she's being hounded for debt.

Will she have some bad thoughts?

Come on.

After all,

she's a psychological counselor herself.

Qi Lianshan.

You'd better focus on writing your script.

I'll stop thinking.

Why didn't you come for the exam?

It's boring. I went for training.

Don't you know how to do it?

Let me use the pen

that I gave you before.

- Don't you have your pencil case? - I want to use that one.

I didn't bring that pen.

How about using this one then?
