It's late at night.

What are you lost in thought?

Didn't you notice me?

I've been here

going back and forth.

What's bothering you?

I'm fine.

Is there something going wrong

with the show?

Nothing.

Then why are you

looking troubled?

I'm really good.

Go back and get some sleep.

Don't stay up too late.

Alright.

(Borman Counseling Center) Mr. Yang.

What brings you here so late?

Ms. Li mentioned that

this year's industry benchmark

was again given to our company.

Really?

So I got it out first.

That's great.

By the way, Mr. Yang.

I received a package today,

and it's addressed to you.

However,

there's no sender's address listed on it.

Please take a look.

Well, Mr. Yang.

If you need anything, just let me know.

Okay.

(My name is Xu Xihang.)

(I do business in Su City.)

(Here's my real-name whistleblowing.)

(Regarding the online controversy)

(over the recorded conversation)

(of psychological counselor Liu Xia,)

(it's all the result of cherry-picking.)

(Everything)

(was instructed by)

(Mr. Yang Youli)

(of Borman Center.)

(He gave me the recordings)

(and handed me 10,000 yuan.)

(He asked me to edit the recordings)

(according to his instructions)

(and promised me another 10,000 once it was done.)

Spill it.

How much do you want?

Liu Xia is taping a TV show.

(If you don't want)

(this video to go public,)

clarify the misunderstanding

about Liu Xia during the show.

Do you understand clearly?

I'm really curious.

Who are you?

I'm someone not to be messed with.

That makes me even more interested.

How about meeting face-to-face?

If I had known you were annoying,

I would've trampled you to death.

Never mind.

You've got one shot.

If you do anything

to harm Liu Xia again,

I won't hold back.

Alright.

Don't tell Grandpa

about this matter.

Don't worry.

Even if we tell Chairman, he won't believe it.

You two

aren't the people

from the same world.

In my opinion,

let's confront him directly next time.

He's running a counseling center.

We can open a bar next door,

with live music and dance daily.

If he relocates,

we'll move along with him.

After a while,

he'll surely be traumatized.

Mom.

Can you guess what I'm drawing?

Come on, bro.

Don't wait for tomorrow.

Let's do it today,

okay?

I'm really stuck.

I couldn't write

a single word yesterday.

I'll wait for you at the studio.

Hey, bro.

Xia.

I've already uploaded

the footage to the cloud drive.

Make sure you check it out.

I'm watching it right now.

Alright.

(Angie)

Hey there.

Miss Liu.

Are you free at the moment?

Yes, I'm available.

I'd like to have a chat with you.

Alright. See you in a minute.

Hey! You're not paying attention while driving.

It's my brand-new car.

I'm sorry about that.

Apologizing won't help!

I tell you.

Either file an insurance claim,

or I'll report it to the police.

What should we do?

How about handling it privately?

You wish.

I won't settle it privately with you.

What are you talking about?

This is my new car.

Bro.

What are you doing here?

This is the taxi I took.

What's going on with you?

Why are you

driving this car today?

Is it newly purchased?

No.

It's Wang Yang's car.

I borrowed it

to discuss business with someone.

I borrowed my friend's car,

and you just crashed it.

How am I supposed to explain this to him?

I apologize.

But apologies won't fix anything, will they?

I...

Well,

I won't claim insurance.

I can't afford any delays.

You need to

compensate me

2,000 yuan right away.

Make it 500.

Or else let's go through insurance.

It doesn't matter to me.

What?

Well...

I'm having a bad day.

What kind of taxi did you take?

Come on.

Transfer 500 yuan to me.

Hurry up!

I've transferred the money, bro.

Please be more careful when you drive.

Alright.

Shanshan.

Thanks, bro.

Don't ride his car.

It's not safe.

Get in my car. I'll take you away.

Hurry.

Alright.

Driver.

I'll pay for this ride now.

Why pay him any money?

Get in.

Forget about him.

What a lousy driver.

Reverse.

Don't mess up the gears.

Go slower.

Bro.

Did Wang Yang hit the jackpot?

He got himself a Range Rover.

Yeah.

What a stroke of bad luck.

I borrowed his car,

trying to save face.

But it was crashed.

How am I supposed to explain this?

I am feeling so embarrassed

about it.

Well...

Where's the ignition?

It got me so flustered that I forgot.

Here it is.

Where's the gear?

Nope.

Bro.

Here.

Look at this.

Park, Reverse, Neutral,

Drive, and Sport.

I got it.

Is the seat belt fastened?

Yes.

Look, even the armrest...

Well, let's hit the road then.

Before I got married,

I had my own job,

and I was busy every day.

You know

I used to work as an actress

on various sets,

surrounded by many assistants.

So,

I'm not skilled at taking care of others.

I decided to get married

because I grew up alone

in an art school.

I yearned for someone to take care of me.

After meeting my husband,

he treated me exceptionally well,

and I felt secure with him.

Therefore,

I wholeheartedly

chose to marry him.

But after getting married,

everything changed.

I hope I can prioritize my family.

You know what?

Taking care of children is really tough,

much harder than acting.

I gave up all my work

and focused solely

on the child.

I hope I can do it well.

But the more I try to do it well,

the worse it becomes.

I see those moms

doing so well

and finding ways to prepare

nutritious meals for their children.

I'm always rushing and struggling.

Although my mother-in-law

and husband

don't say anything,

I can feel

their disapproval.

The more they do that,

the more inferior I become

and the worse my performance gets.

It turns into

a vicious cycle

that repeats over and over.

Why did we

get married?

What did we hope for?

Gradually,

I can no longer see love

in my husband's eyes.

There's no point being together.

What for?

I'm still young.

Even though

I'm not as famous as before,

I'm not afraid.

I'm capable of work.

At worst,

I will live alone with my child.

Divorce is no big deal.

In this world,

many emotions

can be dealt with.

Grievances are the only exception.

A minor grievance

in the heart

over time

would become

a major one.

It's not just about

doing laundry and cooking,

or taking care of the household.

We have a housekeeper.

I didn't ask her

to do everything herself.

These are just some examples

from our life.

To sum it up,

I feel that

ever since we had the child,

she has been

overly focused on the child.

Isn't it reasonable

to put all the focus on the child?

That's not a problem.

But do you know

what a family of three means?

It means three people.

But in this family,

I only see two people.

I'm like the air.

Whether I'm here or not, it's the same.

I have no sense of presence.

If you want to be seen,

why don't you take care

of the child with Angie?

You're right.

However, in our society,

there exist distinct gender roles.

As a married man,

the foremost priority

is to earn a higher income.

My days are filled with

busy schedules,

yet she shows no concern for me.

I haven't even experienced

the slightest warmth

from my wife.

Let me put it this way.

The attention I receive

in any external situation

surpasses that within this household.

Does it make sense?

Attention?

After Angie gave birth,

she didn't make any progress

while you've consistently

advanced in your career.

And you've encountered

superior women than Angie.

This is a conversation I had with Angie.

Take a look at it.

(Pursuit)

(Chasing the Wind)

(Pursuit)

(Chasing the Wind)

(Oh dear!)

Did I make the wrong choice?

After everything he's been through,

he needs some time.

And what about you?

They invited you,

why didn't you go?

You could have earned money.

I'm not going.

Your buddy won't return

to the circuit anymore.

Are you going to

give up your dream too?

Bro.

Honestly,

you're the most talented mechanic

I've ever seen.

You sound like

you know other mechanics.

I have faith in you.

Alright.

What do we do now?

We can only wait for Zhen Hai

to come to his senses and return to the arena.

But

can he come back?

Of course.

How do you know?

I've liked him since I was 14.

No one knows him better than I do.

Alright.

It's time for dinner.

I'm hungry.

Don't spend any money.

We're broke.

How can we starve?

Hurry up.

Excuse me.

Is the boss around?

The boss isn't here.

What can I help you with?

I'm looking to modify a car.

What kind of modifications?

I want to upgrade the engine.

You can't legally modify a car's engine

that's allowed on the road.

It's against the law.

It's for racing purposes.

Car racing.

No way.

Aren't you Zhen Hai, the racing legend?

Why can't you modify a car?

I heard about your last race.

I thought you

went into seclusion for training.

I never expected you

would be hiding in this rundown repair shop.

It seems that you have come down,

looking all devastated.

No problem.

I can offer you a job.

Listen.

If you help me modify the car

and become my training partner,

I'll pay you.

Assaulting someone is a crime.

Calm down, will you?

That's not what I meant.

I have a lot of admiration for you,

and I enjoy watching you race.

I even buy VIP tickets

for your races.

Let me tell you.

I don't hold you responsible for

Han Shuai's accident.

That guy seems suspicious.

What's your name?

I'm Lin Feichi.

Lin, like Lin Chong.

Feichi, like a galloping horse.

I only repair cars here.

So if you don't have any other business,

please don't bother me while I work.

You...

Can you help me?

It wasn't easy for me to come here.

I've been to several places.

They say only you

can handle this kind of car.

Well,

I might have been

a bit rude earlier,

but now I'm begging you.

What's wrong with the car?

I made some modifications recently.

Now once it accelerates,

the car becomes unstable.

Why don't you give it a try?

Where are the car keys?

It's inside.

Inside.

Thank you so much, legend.

I shall wait for you here.

How's it going?

The fuel cuts off at 7,000 RPM.

What?

What did you say?

The fuel cuts off at 7,000 RPM.

It couldn't be.

I'll turn off the engine first.

Bro, it's not working.

It's too unstable.

The intake pressure may be too low.

Who are you?

We're closed here.

I am Han Shuai's brother.

What do you want?

Let go.

Let me go!

Bro.

What do you want?

I heard you've been

following Zhen Hai for years

and are close to him.

He killed my brother.

How should I

deal with his brother?

The problem at the racetrack

should be resolved right on the racetrack.

Your brother messed with the car,

causing his own death,

and got Zhen Hai banned from racing.

Do you still have the nerve to come to find us?

Bro.

Just like you said,

let's settle things on the racetrack.

Get Zhen Hai to race against me

on the first of next month.

Or else I'll make you

pay the price.

What are you doing?

Let go of me.

Brother.

What are you up to?

(Leo Racing)

Let go of me.

Bro.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Come here.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

How about

we call the police?

We can't let Zhen Hai

participate in this race.

They must have ulterior motives.

Let's wait for him to come back.

And then we talk about this with him.

(I can't stand seeing a grown man)

(crying and whining)

(just because he can't win a trophy.)

You can't beat me, even with a one-lap lead.

(Zhen Hai.)

(The medical team says Han Shuai is seriously injured,)

(which may end)

(his professional career.)

(What do you think about this?)

(Champion racer Zhen Hai)

(intentionally broke the rules,)

(leading to injuries to individuals)

(during the race.)

(Zhen Hai's results for this year's competition)

(have been nullified,)

(his championship title was revoked,)

(and he's banned from racing for three years)

(based on the event's arbitration decision.)

If he's innocent,

why is he afraid of an investigation?

Let me tell you.

Zhen Hai's era

has already passed.

(We should think about)

(our future path.)

(Meng Feng.)

(I'm telling you I won't spare you.)

You've always been such an arrogant person.

Why are you hiding here now?

Let's race it out.

Just you and me.

I want you to meet the same fate

as my brother.

I won't

race ever again.

Captain.

Captain, listen to me.

Captain.

Just give me one more chance.

You have

a criminal record.

I can't help you.

Yes,

I have a criminal record.

But you can't judge me solely

- based on my past... - Enough.

The residents in the neighborhood

have already reported you.

I really can't do anything about it.

Go to the office now

and submit your resignation.

Liu Xia.

You're so ruthless.

Wait and see!

Hello, Miss Liu.

Were you the one

who visited the studio last time?

Yes.

I'm Li Bande,

an assistant of Mr. Bai

from Binhai Group.

Regarding the sponsorship

of Rendezvous,

Mr. Bai would like to speak with you.

He's waiting for you upstairs.

Sure.

This way, please.

This way. Miss Liu.

Hello. Miss Liu.

Hello.

I'm Bai Muchen from Binhai Group,

the sponsor of Rendezvous.

I heard from the director that

you've been supportive. Thank you.

You're welcome.

Please have a seat.

Thank you.

Miss Liu.

I've been following you

for quite some time.

I just haven't

found the right opportunity

to meet you.

I've had a passion for psychology

since I was young,

so I sponsored this show.

I see.

Miss Liu.

Can we be friends?

Of course.

Well,

can we exchange WeChat?

Let me scan yours.

Okay.

If you have any psychology-related questions

in the future,

feel free to ask me anytime.

Sure.

Then I'll save your contact as Mr. Bai.

Actually,

I'm pretty young.

You can call me Chen

or Muchen. Either is fine.

Then I'll call you Mr. Bai Jr.

Good.

By the way, Miss Liu.

This restaurant

is the best in Su City.

Since it's our first meal together,

I didn't know what you like to eat,

so I chose this place.

I've seen this restaurant online,

and I heard

it has high ratings.

Are the reservations quite difficult?

Yes.

Actually,

De recommended

this restaurant to me.

He said

in TV shows,

when a boy and a girl go on their first date,

if the boy

carefully selects the venue

and sets up the atmosphere,

it will

make the girl feel touched.

But,

it's quite awkward.

I don't know what to say.

Did I choose the wrong place, Miss Liu?

No. It's fine.

Have you been here before?

No.

It's my first time too.

Since we're already here,

and the reservations were so difficult,

let's ask them to serve the food quickly.

Sure.

Hello.

Please serve the food.

(Long and rich in history.)

Granny.

Shan.

What brings you here?

How did you manage to find this place?

I went to the market to locate you,

but you were not there.

So I inquired around,

and now I'm here.

Did you miss me?

Yes.

Please come in.

Granny.

This place

has such a pleasant environment.

In the past, my little courtyard

was truly remarkable.

Yes.

Do you like it?

Granny.

Are you preparing

something delicious?

I just finished

stewing some fish.

Any other dishes

besides fish?

There's nothing left.

Impossible.

I can smell the delicious braised pork.

A super smeller,

are you?

Let's go.

Give it a try.

I was right.

You see.

Why you brought so many things?

Let me take them.

Here we are.

- It's steaming hot. - Incredible smells.

The flavors are truly exceptional.

You should taste my cooking.

Alright.

I'll give it a try.

Try this one.

You seem so satisfied.

Granny.

This is incredibly delicious.

Have some more.

Sure, I'll eat more.

It's incredibly tasty.

You came at the perfect time today

just when I have food at home.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know

how to show my hospitality.

Granny.

Are you planning to

never sell at

that market again?

I'm here to

do some dried goods

and make some sausages.

I can grab a bite, make a sale

and give a little more.

I'm living a good life.

No more enduring hardship.

If that's the case,

you won't see me in the future.

Come to my place.

I have food and drinks for you.

I can't always

come to your place just to eat and drink.

Well,

I...

Maybe...

It's really hard to say.

Let's talk about this after the new year.

Give this a taste.

Alright.

Granny.

A couple of days ago,

when I went to the market,

I bumped into Old Li.

I noticed

something was off about him.

He seemed low-spirited.

What did he say to you?

He didn't say much.

He mentioned that

he upset you.

He also discussed

the issues at his home

and mentioned

how to resolve those matters.

I didn't inquire further.

Granny.

Your health is more important.

Don't get mad at him.

What's the point of getting mad at him, right?

I'm not getting mad.

Alright. Don't get mad.

Have some more.

Granny, do you want some?

Try this.

I'll eat it. Okay.

Shan.

Why did you

come here today?

Leave the bowls and chopsticks here after eating.

I'll clean up.

Go back early.

The bus is about to leave.

Granny, aren't you eating?

What's the situation?

I think

Granny probably figured out that

we planned this together.

I'm worried.

What did she say?

Old Li.

Your situation

is more complicated

than writing a campus love story.

No. You...

You're the one who deals with words.

Describe it for her.

Okay, I can have a try.

- Good. - The food is not bad.

Don't eat it.

Granny made it

especially for me.

Why are you eating it?

How can I not eat it?

Think about it carefully

how to solve the problems

you have right now.

Think about it carefully.

I asked you to think about

how to solve your problems.

Why are you going inside?

Sit here.

Think about it carefully.

Today...

Granny's cooking is excellent.
