[Guess Who I Am]

[Adapted from Yi Jin's original novel, "Please! Please Don't Be Friends with Me!"]

The plumber?

He's here.

- What are you doing here? - What are you doing here?

I've long known about the contractual marriage.

So what if you do?

We have the official certificate.

Aside from seeking pleasure and leeching off others, what can you do?

[Episode 13]

Shen Shuangshuang, Gu Zijun.

Don't tell me that the pipe burst itself.

Let's turn off the main pump.

They did escape quickly.

Do you have a wrench?

I'll go and get it.

Here.

Okay.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I never expected an elite like you to know how to fix pipes.

It's inconvenient when you live abroad.

We have to rely on our own hands for many things.

Answer it for me.

Hello?

All right, got it.

All done.

Senior, I've made some progress

regarding the investigation of Song Yao. [Song Lingren]

Senior, I've made some progress regarding the investigation of Song Yao.

Your assumption was correct.

There's something fishy about her past.

Okay.

[Qin Hao]

Why did Sheng Silin come to the flower shop today?

I don't know.

I think he found out about our contract.

Don't worry.

No matter what he's up to, I can deal with him.

Just keep your distance from him.

Got it.

What's wrong?

Qin Hao.

Do you truly trust me?

Of course. What's with that question?

It's nothing.

I was reminded of the past.

You always had the goods on me at critical junctures.

I never won against you.

Of course, I trust you.

Right now, we're a model couple who trusts each other.

♫ It has been a long time ♫

♫ Since we started the war ♫

♫ Come on ♫

♫ We both know it's love ♫

Qin Hao, can I truly trust you?

You can.

What's the matter?

Nothing much, I just feel sleepy. I'll head to bed first.

I thought our relationship had changed.

Song Yao, what were you thinking?

Why would he treat a small fry like you sincerely?

We forged this relationship for mutual benefit.

What are you expecting?

You just need to do your own part.

Senior.

There is something dodgy about the accident that Song Yao's mother was caught in.

Was it him?

It might be possible.

I read the details.

The driver who caused the car accident had a birthmark on his arm as well.

I've already sent the picture to you.

Take a look and see if you recognize him.

Senior?

This is a grave matter. We should call the cops.

Even if we do call the cops,

the case was closed 15 years ago.

Now, we don't have any evidence either.

If so, let's search for clues and gather evidence first.

Big Brother.

I want to work.

What did you say?

I... I want to work.

Really?

But I have one condition.

You must put me in charge of the purchase of Riyue Bay Wetland Resort.

Give me a reason.

I need to become someone who surpasses Ji Chengchuan.

- President Sheng. - Tell the HR Department to meet me.

All right.

Ji Chengchuan, I'll let you know he consequences of provoking me!

So, a good rival does make one strive to improve oneself.

I should thank Mr. Ji for this.

Thanks. [Sheng Siqi]

[Ji Chengchuan]

How's the scald?

It's much better now. Thanks.

I'm full. You can enjoy your meal.

- Where are you going? - The flower shop.

Let me drive you there.

No need for that. You can get on with your day.

General Manager Ji.

The chairman assigned three of us to assist you in completing the bid.

All the projects we're handling

were verified by the chairman himself. Do you not trust us at all?

General Manager Ji, please don't mind Old Bai's short temper.

Sorry about that.

I was busy with the department. That's why I'm late.

How's the discussion going?

Redo it.

What do you mean? Why should we redo it?

Old Bai, stop talking.

Which part of the bid proposal are you unsatisfied with?

What is the occupancy rate of the resort?

We did the calculations.

The annual occupancy rate is about 54 percent.

Have you taken the pandemic into account?

Due to the pandemic,

the high-end domestic tourism sector experienced an explosive increase in profit.

I don't think you wrote that down within your bid proposal.

Director Bai,

I doubt you can justify the chairman's acknowledgment with such negligence.

General Manager Ji, back then, the chairman and I...

General Manager Ji,

we're sorry.

It's all our fault. We'll rectify it immediately.

Yeah, sure.

Please.

Chairman.

Chairman.

I heard that you didn't give Old Bai and the rest an out for their error.

Is that the reason you called me here?

All of them are prominent elders of the group.

Sometimes, it's not a good thing for you to show off too much.

It's been some time since I had a gathering with my friends.

I'm holding a gathering with them today.

You should join me.

You've seen many of the youngsters when you were young.

You know that I'm uninterested in such affairs.

Chairman Wang, the owner of Riyue Bay, will be there, too. [The Highest Virtue Likened to Water]

You can decide

whether you want to go or not.

Okay, I got it.

The last stroke for "Water" is too heavy.

After all, it's not good to show off too much, right?

Senior, most of the people here knew Ji Chengchuan when he was young.

You're heading there alone.

What should we do if they question your identity?

Call Song Yao over, too.

[Yao Yao: Sorry, I'm not free.]

No need for that.

Over here, please.

Chengchuan? We've been waiting for you.

- Zhaolin, long time no see. - It's been a while.

Old Ji, I heard that Chengchuan is in charge of the Riyue Bay project.

It's nothing noteworthy.

Old Wang, you have to keep an eye on him.

Chengchuan, Riyue Bay is my life's work.

You have to show me your sincerity.

Definitely.

Uncle Wang, I won't disappoint you during the bid.

Here, Chengchuan. Have a seat.

Chengchuan, I was overseas when you got married.

I couldn't attend your wedding.

Why didn't you bring your wife here and introduce her to us?

She's feeling unwell today, so I didn't bring her along.

I watched the live stream.

Your wife is protective of you indeed.

Jingyi, I still remember that you followed Chengchuan everywhere as a child.

You kept saying that you wanted to get married to Chengchuan.

I remember that Chengchuan loved Dou Dou.

But you stole it from him while sobbing.

That's not true. Chengchuan gave it to me.

Chengchuan, do you still remember Dou Dou?

Of course.

I remember that you loved it back then.

You took pictures with it in your arms.

Pictures?

Was I wrong?

Dear, did you forget?

Dou Dou didn't allow anyone to hold it except for you.

Cats dislike strangers.

Miss Liang, how was Dou Dou after that?

Nothing worse that great.

I can rest at ease, then.

Why are you everywhere?

You haunt me to no end.

Hello, everyone. I'm Song Yao. I'm Chengchuan's wife.

Sorry about that.

Didn't you say you were busy? Why are you here?

Jiang Nanxuan texted me.

If so, your eyes...

Don't worry.

I know the context of the situation.

I wore contact lenses today.

Thank you for coming to my rescue.

Don't mention it. It's my duty.

Let's go back. Time to eat.

Uncle Wang.

I heard that the project at Riyue Bay is undergoing an upgrade.

You don't mind if I visit the site, do you?

Kid, you're pretty resourceful, aren't you?

You phrase your survey so nicely, don't you?

Making necessary preparations is a part of my duty as well.

Uncle Wang, let me offer you a toast.

Uncle Wang, it's been so long since I visited your resort.

- Why don't Chengchuan and I... - Uncle Wang.

My wife is very interested in your resort, too.

You won't mind if I bring her along for the survey, right?

Of course not.

Great, you guys can take a breather at my resort.

Okay.

I'll thank you in advance, then.

But Uncle...

I guess one can never escape from misfortunes when they happen.

Chengchuan, I hope that your project will proceed smoothly.

Look at how careless I am.

Here.

Sorry about that.

Chengchuan, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Chengchuan, I remember that you had a scar here when you were young.

Crap, Qin Hao's scar is located on his left arm.

Will the cat be out of the bag?

Uncle, what are you suspecting?

Perhaps...

Dad, are you suspecting me as well?

Chengchuan, I do remember the scar you had as a child.

Chairman, you remembered incorrectly.

My scar is located on my left arm.

The scar I had as a child has been covered by this one.

You can ask Ji Cheng'an if you don't believe me.

I believe that he remembers the details.

Enough.

You guys should be satisfied after seeing his scar.

Let's go.

Ji Chengchuan's scar? It's on his left arm. [Ji Cheng'an]

I got him hurt as a kid. Uncle, what's the matter?

Do they treat you like this at Chengtian Group?

Do you feel heartbroken?

Why should I? I'm just asking.

Follow me to the resort.

Nope. I'm busy.

What should I do if this happens again when you aren't around?

I won't be as lucky next time.

You resolved the conflict fabulously. You don't need me.

Going.

Not going.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.

Should I go? Or should I not?

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.

Catch a tiger by the toe.

If he hollers, let him go.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.

Are we leaving?

Wait a little longer.

Dude, it's been half an hour.

Song Yao won't be coming. Let's just go.

She'll come.

Hao Hao, I've told you many times.

Even if a woman says yes, it might not happen.

If she says no, that means it definitely won't happen.

Look at you. You don't know women at all.

You don't know Song Yao.

I don't know Song Yao, huh? But she...

Let me make myself clear. I'm only doing this to uphold the contract.

Let's go.

♫ Hiding on the rooftop nearest to the night sky ♫

♫ Do you think we're deserters? ♫

♫ Drinking neon-toned whiskey ♫

What's with that?

♫ Is it the moonlight or our blurry visions? ♫

♫ Is it the moonlight or our blurry visions? ♫

Turn off the music.

♫ Drink to my long-hidden care ♫

You guys can proceed with the check-in. I'll talk to the manager.

Okay.

What are you two up to again?

Life is tough. This is just a side gig.

Let me introduce him.

The global Chinese trendsetter, the top-ranking guy in Asia

for the Top 100 Beautiful Faces in the World,

Vogue's Best Male Abs, the top-ranking youth

for Forbes' Most Charismatic Youth three years in a row,

the Guinness record holder for having the most female fans as an Asian man.

And he's even the favored winning bidder of the Riyue Bay Wetland Resort bid.

He's Sheng Silin, CEO of Shengshi Group cum project manager.

What's up with you for the past few days?

It's nothing. I'm doing fine.

I didn't expect them to decorate the place like this.

I'll tell the manager to get us another room.

It's okay.

I need to look for Shuangshuang.

I'll be staying in her room tonight.

Song Yao.

If you don't want to share a bed with Ji Chengchuan,

I don't mind sacrificing my body tonight.

I mean, I'll sleep in the same room as him.

If so, I'll make a move first.

Song Yao.

You're welcome.

Please go ahead.

Roll off the bed.

Fine. I'll roll off the bed.

Mr. Ji, Mr. Sheng, everything is ready.

Should I come back later?

Should I?

Let's go.

Why did he ditch me here?

Guys, this is the resort's kitchen.

It was revamped not long ago.

Not only did we import professional kitchen utensils from Germany,

but we also hired Michelin three-star chefs.

The workspace has limited functionality.

It'll be hard to satisfy the various demands of our guests.

I think this workspace is pretty good.

It's perfectly designed for our ergonomics.

That's right.

We designed this living room for the top-tier guests of our resort.

It has excellent privacy.

It's the best venue for business discussions.

It took 20 minutes to get there from the activity zone.

Who would walk this far just to come here?

It's superfluous.

Superfluous? Who said so?

I love to talk walks when I'm free.

Mr. Ji, this is a kind reminder. Walks are good for health.

For this area, we hired top Japanese garden designers to create this garden.

We strive to achieve a magnificent view of water and peaks.

The greening is pretty good.

However, bugs and mosquitoes grow in large numbers during summer.

It'll affect our guests' experience.

Ji Chengchuan, are you even human?

This is what you call an ecosystem.

Humans aren't the only species on the planet, you know?

CEO Sheng, you do harbor humanistic love.

Sirs, over here, please.

Sirs, this is the resort's rock-climbing zone that's currently being built.

The main structure is basically done.

We predict that it can be used by the end of this year.

There's not enough safety equipment here.

You won't be able to deal with accidents.

It's a huge safety hazard.

Rock climbing is a thrilling activity, no? Why do you think people do it?

Got the guts for a competition?

Let's not put on any safety equipment.

Sheng Silin, I don't have time to fool around with you.

If you win against me, I'll leave the resort immediately.

Ji Chengchuan, are you scared?

Why did you two drag me here? What's going on?

Yao Yao, just bear with us. It'll be over soon.

Sheng Silin said he found out about your contract.

He said he wanted to save you.

You actually believe him?

Of course not. However...

Were you two bribed by him?

Bingo. You should've become a prophet.

Three, two, one, begin!

[For show! Dangerous! Please do not imitate!]

Come down! It's too dangerous!

Careful!

Loser. Bye-bye.

Watch out!

Loser.

Have you lost your mind? Do you have a death wish?

You think you're hella cool and a pro?

You think you're the Spiderman of Riyue Bay, huh?

If you're that capable, why don't you fly to the sky?

You think this is the Avengers?

This is life.

It is what it is.

You may look like you've won the match,

but you lost your relationship with her.

Don't go. Wait for me.

Excuse me, do you have a first-aid kit?

Yes. What medicine do you need?

My friend sprained his wrist.

Okay, I'll find something for you. Please wait a moment.

Slow down.

Say, this is truly unexpected.

This is my first loss in life, but I'm actually ecstatic about it.

You better keep your promise and leave the place.

I'll definitely leave.

But before that, I need to interview you.

Mr. Ji Chengchuan, you made a bet with Ji Honglin for Song Yao's sake.

Due to that, Song Yao told you off in public and humiliated you.

Also, you will lose to me in the upcoming bid and leave Chengtian Group after that.

How do you feel about losing both your career and relationship?

You don't need to tell me. I don't want to know.

A bet? What's going on?

I shouldn't have hidden the bet from you.

I should be the one apologizing to you.

What's wrong with you these past few days?

Have I done something wrong and made you upset?

That day,

I saw the text from Secretary Song by accident.

Seems like you're still investigating me.

May I know why?

Actually, I came back

to investigate the truth behind the fire that happened 15 years ago.

After your mother's surgery,

I read her medical records.

I found out by accident

that your mother was caught in a car accident

on the same day

as the fire incident involving Ji Chengchuan.

Therefore, I became suspicious.

I told Song Lingren to investigate.

That's how I found out

that the driver who crashed into your mother

was the culprit of the fire incident 15 years ago.

I hid it from you because I'm sure

that these incidents are related to Chengtian Group's executives.

The more one delves into it, the more dangerous it'll be.

I'm already involved in this with no way out

but I don't want to implicate you.

I was wrong to keep this from you.

However, it's too dangerous for you.

Don't forget. We're partners.

We should face these ordeals together.

Also, shouldn't we tell the cops all this?

The fire 15 years ago and your mother's case have already been closed.

We can't reopen the cases without any evidence.

We have to find conclusive evidence first.

All right, we'll do this together.
