A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

Angie.

Angie.

Come down. Breakfast is ready.

Lin Gui, where is Angie?

Missy and I were talking and laughing in the room.

All of a sudden, out of nowhere,

she blindsided me with a kick.

You moron.

Boss,

that's not fair at all.

You yourself trained Missy to be this way.

She's as nasty as a raptor.

No one is capable of beating her.

Since the day I ordered you to serve and accompany Angie at her side,

I have had only one request.

What is it?

To keep her safe.

And where is she now?

I have no clue.

Then what are we going to do?

Boss, boss.

I've got an idea.

Since Missy escaped in such a hurry,

she must have checked into a hotel.

I have sent someone to look it up.

Inform me as soon as you find her.

Okay.

Gosh.

Even though I'm just an orphan,

he doesn't have to be so mean to me.

What the hell!

I agree to hiring you as a bodyguard,

but we need to be clear on certain terms.

First of all, other than me,

no one should know you're a triad member.

You must hide your identity.

No problem.

Secondly,

from now on,

unless Ling Yun stays at home,

wherever she goes, you go with her.

No problem.

Thirdly,

although you're being hired as a bodyguard,

you will also work as an assistant.

Being her assistant is your cover identity.

No problem.

Fourthly,

whether you're an assistant or bodyguard, you should stick to your job.

For anything outside of your job duties, stay out of it.

Are you listening to me?

Or do you think this job is just a pastime?

Remember, this is serious.

If you make even a tiny mistake,

my firm won't hesitate to fire you.

Stay vigilant, Angie.

Now, go and see my assistant Nana.

She will show you around.

Okay.

I'm Nana.

Take this.

Sophia is busy today, so she wants me to show you around.

This is a display of our collections. It's not important.

This is the restroom.

Don't hold your pee at work. It's bad for your health.

And over here is the recreation area.

Hi.

I bet you've lost interest now. Hurry up! This is the important part...

This is your desk.

Keep your things tidy and clean. Don't mess up the work environment.

These two are our top stars. I don't need to tell you more about them.

What are you doing?

Let's take a selfie together.

Accounting is on the seventh floor. I'll tell you the rest later.

This is Sophia's office.

A word of advice: stay away, unless you have urgent business.

It could get ugly.

We have a pretty good pantry with plenty of food and beverages.

Help yourself to anything. The mugs are there if you need them.

Most importantly,

there's one mug you shouldn't use.

Mine.

What's so funny?

Yi-Hang's and Ling Yun's mugs are also there. Try not to use them.

Not "try." Just don't use them.

Which mug belongs to Yi-Hang?

The one with the blue elephant. The one with stripes belongs to Ling Yun.

You know,

our firm cares a lot about tidiness.

A clean and tidy office plays a crucial role in the environment.

Working in an office like this...

Hey, what are you doing?

Why do you have Yi-Hang's mug?

Since you've decided to take this job,

I want to know a few things first.

Do you have a boyfriend?

Do you have pets?

Do cockroaches count?

Not all creatures at home count as pets, okay?

Do you live with your family?

Right now? No.

Good.

Since we need to be on call 24/7,

someone like you, with no boyfriend or pets,

and a loner who doesn't live with their family, would be perfect.

You're not the only loner. I'm also a loner.

Our firm is full of loners.

In our line of work,

there's no room for friends and family.

Now, to the matter at hand,

Sophia said that you'll be working with Ling Yun.

So, from now on,

you'll need to be clear on all of Ling Yun's habits.

I will list everything in a memo later. Keep it and read it carefully.

Nana.

Can you please give me a memo about Yi-Hang?

What do you need that for?

I'm a staffer of this firm.

Yi-Hang and Ling Yun are the anchors of this firm,

so if anything comes up that needs my immediate attention,

it would be best to know their habits first.

Right, I'll write one for you later.

Any more questions?

Nana.

Is Yi-Hang coming to the office today?

You seem to care a lot about him.

Are you a fan? Did you take the job to meet him?

No way.

Do I look like a fan?

Not really.

-You look like a gangster girl. -Gangster...

Nana.

A friend of mine is really into Yi-Hang. I want to get an autograph for him.

-So will he come to the office today? -No.

He said he fell into a river and has a cold right now.

GANSTER WORLD GENRE: ACTION ROMANCE

A-XIONG'S EYES LOOKED HELPLESS. HE SLIGHTLY SMILED AT XIAO-YA.

I CAN'T BLAME ANYONE. THIS IS THE LIFE OF A GANGSTER.

The motivation of the triad...

REMINISCENCE SCENE OLD HOUSE OF MALE PROTAGONIST

Check me into the best room in your hotel.

What type of room would you prefer?

Well, the most expensive one.

How long will you be staying?

What do you think?

Okay. I'll see what I can do.

Missy...

Relax. No one's following me.

Wow.

This is extravagant for a runaway.

-Did you tell on me to my dad? -No, of course not.

But he's sent out guys to look for you, so watch out.

As long as you keep your big mouth shut,

he won't find me.

Not a chance. Trust me.

Have some.

I knew it. You're the best.

Still caring for me while on the run... How touching!

You should remember my kindness well,

and return the favor soon.

Sure, tell me about it.

This dinner is on you.

What?

Do you have any money?

Missy,

it's too bad you weren't a robber in your previous life.

This is money, not just pieces of paper.

This is the last time I'll take your money.

I know...

What's wrong?

Stop pretending.

Hand me your shoe lifts.

-Why are you laughing? -You know about that?

Of course I know.

You're good, really good.

I saw you walk in here five centimeters taller than usual.

Do you think I'm blind?

Five centimeters...

Five centimeters...

Five centimeters...

I'll pay you back when I get my paycheck.

Missy, while you're counting all the money,

have you noticed my pockets are empty?

At least save some for me.

Good... This is good enough, good enough.

Two notes.

Waiter.

You're so kind.

-A fillet steak to go. -Just two notes?l

Stop whining.

-I'm not whining. I'm touched. -You can have the steak.

I'll have the side dish.

I'm touched as well.

What to do without...

Damn, I forgot how to turn on the keyboard

Who's getting bored and poking their nose around?

-Welcome! -Ding Ding.

Here is your late-night snack!

How nice of you!

Enjoy the steak!

You bought my steak,

so let me buy you a beer!

Thanks!

Hey, when is your dad getting you married?

I have no idea.

Are you going to become the first triad boss's daughter

that runs away from home due to a forced marriage?

If you keep pressing, you will be the first convenience store clerk

that gets killed and cut into pieces by a butterfly knife.

Please don't.

I want to write more songs.

I haven't released my album yet, and I still have a great future ahead,

unlike you.

But you don't really need to make a living.

Why become a bodyguard?

I want to be independent.

I haven't really examined my life.

But I know...

I have no more time to waste.

Being a bodyguard is the first step in my new life.

From now on,

I will be the master of my own life.

Angie Ni...

how long did you practice that speech?

In order to persuade Sophia, I practiced for a long time.

It was pretty sincere, right?

Not bad!

Hey, even if you're the triad boss's daughter...

isn't it dangerous

to wander around alone?

In here,

I've got money and a gun.

Look, I have a fourth-degree black belt in taekwondo,

and I'm an experienced boxer.

Who would dare try to harm me?

Besides...

the three scumbags out there keep following me.

They think I haven't noticed.

What scumbags?

Where?

Hey, is there something wrong with the food?

Oh, no!

Watch the store for me, please. Watch the store.

You've got a lot of shit going on!

Cheers!

The beer sucks!

But why are you so handsome?

-Welcome. -This is...

This is a robbery!

Guys, give me a minute!

Fuck. Only two hundred?

Here. Two extra packs of gum for you!

Only two hundred dollars?

Give us your money, too.

Point your knife somewhere else.

I'll personally sponsor you.

And there's this...

Thanks.

You're welcome.

What a pity!

According to the lunar calendar, it's a good day for a robbery.

We just hit the jackpot.

You guys hit the jackpot!

What a fortune!

Do I look familiar to you?

Dimwit!

It's not safe around here at night, all because of you.

Good job!

Missy!

Missy.

Come on!

Return it to the owner.

-Sorry! -Sorry!

Thanks.

You really don't want to hand it over?

I wasn't born yesterday.

So screwed up...

Fine, fine. You guys behave.

You can still have this.

-One pack each. -Thank you!

Miss, let me handle them!

They are still worth saving.

Okay, okay.

We'll show you a lesson worthy of grown-ups.

The lesson of grown-ups.

Hey, dude, what are you looking at?

Nothing. May I ask what you're doing?

Oh, just making small talk.

This is a war zone!

It's dangerous out here.

Get home early and get some rest.

-Behave! -Thank you.

Don't you understand what I'm saying?

You really are hard to get rid of.

-Guys! -Yes!

I got it! Sorry! Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Dimwit! Get out of here.

What's going on?

Professional training and behavioral correction.

It's not important!

Put the money back,

and dump this.

I'm leaving now!

Hey, Angie.

Can you pass this on to Sophia to listen to?

SEPT-OCT 2019 DING DING'S GREATEST HITS

The Best of Ding Ding?

I worked hard on it. Please do me a favor!

Fine... if I get the chance.

Hey, where do you think those two will be taken to?

What do you think?

Yi-Hang.

Drink this. It's very effective. Your cold will be gone soon.

Thanks.

-Is Sophia in the office today? -Yes.

She has an appointment with Ling Yun.

It's probably about the blackmail letter.

-Here. -I don't know what they were thinking.

Where's my mug?

Right, where's your mug?

Sophia, I don't need protection.

The blackmail letter is just a practical joke by some anti-fans.

-Why are you taking it so seriously? -You don't need to, but I do.

I feel relieved when someone is with you.

I hate people following me around like a ghost!

I always go to the locations on my own without an assistant.

She's not a ghost. She's your bodyguard!

Who cares if she's a bodyguard or a ghost. I don't need her!

Ms. Ling Yun,

you have the habit of drinking siphon coffee every morning.

You like spicy food,

but avoid it on set because you don't want pimples.

Your favorite fruit is durian,

but you don't want people to know that.

When you film on location, people must wake you up one hour earlier,

because you don't sleep well and laze around in bed.

When you're not working, you barely leave your house,

except to go jogging.

Ms. Ling Yun, I know all of your habits.

-I know which toilet paper brand you use. -I use a Washlet now!

That's right!

You wipe with the toilet paper before using the strong water spray.

Enough! Are you a pervert? Why did you investigate me?

No, I didn't.

I just want to let you know

that other than being your bodyguard,

I can also be a very good assistant to you.

Okay,

I will accept her as my assistant,

but I definitely don't want to be followed 24 hours a day.

I knew you would say that.

I heard that you are such a--

What did you say?

So,

will you download this tracking app

and turn on your GPS so I can track your location?

This way, I'll know where you are, and you won't be followed all the time.

What do you think?

Let me think about it.

But know this:

you won't need to use this app.

Goodbye, Ms. Ling Yun!

-You did great back there. -Thanks!

-How did you know about the toilet paper? -Sophia, let me tell you...

It's because when I used the toilet, I found a really cool thing...

In the toilet...

I only love to sing

I only love to sing

You sing well.

Oh, my God. It's you!

I'm here to return your jacket. It's washed. Thank you.

I said you didn't need to return it. You're too kind.

It's yours, after all.

It would be a waste to not wear it.

A star like you worries about being wasteful?

Oh, by the way...

You know,

it's not safe around here at night, right?

What do you mean?

I saw a lot of men in black here the other day.

Oh, they are just regular customers.

They are triad members, right?

Well, triad members visit convenience stores, too.

When do they usually come here?

It depends! Sometime in the evening...

What do they usually buy?

Mostly booze and cigarettes.

Sometimes when it's hot, they get ice cream, too.

Wait, why are you asking me this?

I'm just taking some notes.

I must go now. I have work to do.

Oh.

-Thanks! -You're welcome.

Hey!

Do you really think

that my singing is good?

It's good! Very enjoyable to listen to.

Keep up the good work!

It's good!

Who can I sell it to?

What's up?

What?

Ling Yun is not at the studio yet.

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND

Where am I?

-Hey. -Director.

-Where's Ling Yun? -We're trying to reach her.

-She's not here yet. -That's absurd.

She's been working for years. She needs an assistant.

Assistant?

She's right over there. The girl who is eating cookies.

Hey, newbie...

where's your boss?

Go and find her now!

-Why are you still standing there? Go. -I'll get her.

Granny, can I rent this scooter from you?

Or can I just buy it?

Is this enough?

Thank you, Granny.

Granny,

do you have a helmet?

Target location detected.

Sorry, no cars are available.

Hi, Ling Yun.

Someone suggested recently that she wouldn't need this app!

Even without the app, I can figure out the way on my own.

Yeah, right!

Hop on.

The whole studio is waiting for you.

I don't ride on scooters.

Fine.

How about this?

You can wait for me here, and I'll go down and call a cab.

Hey.

-All right. -Huh?

All right.

Oh.

Hop on.

Are you kidding me?

Or do you wanna try this one with the rice scoop?

I'm really sorry.

Sorry that I'm late.

You're finally here.

It's all right. We were able to take a break.

Come on. Help Ling Yun with her makeup.

Okay, let's get ready to roll.

Move along.

-I'll never get on your scooter again. -Ms. Ling Yun, this way, please.

Some people

are born to be actors.

Okay. Cut.

Ling Yun,

great job.

-Thank you! -Okay, let's call it a day.

-Thank you, Director. -Well done.

-Remove her makeup first. -Okay.

-Let me get some rest. Thanks. -Okay.

Your longan jujube tea.

Ling Yun,

when you did this back there...

I thought you had actually done that before.

What are you talking about?

I would never do drugs.

Well, sure you don't do drugs.

You really know how to stay healthy by drinking longan jujube tea.

You would never do drugs.

What I meant was that you performed really well.

Excuse me. This is Ling Yun's contract.

Please give it to Sophia.

-Thanks. -Oh, sure. Thanks.

Make sure you secure the contract.

Give it to the legal department tomorrow.

Hmm.

Ling Yun,

let me drive you to work from now on, okay?

You would be safer with me around.

Oh, you're Xu Yi-Hang's girlfriend,

Ling Yun.

Mister...

Don't read the tabloids. They just contain gibberish.

-Spare yourself from that trash. -Hello, Sophia.

The tabloids said they spent nights together.

Mister,

mind your own business.

Stop chatting and gossiping. Watch where you're driving, okay?

Mister, to Hsinyi Road instead. Thanks.

Okay, Hsinyi Road.

Aren't you going home?

I'm going to my boyfriend's place.

What are you doing?

This feels so soft. The texture is amazing.

You said you wanted to use the restroom.

Relieve yourself and go home quickly.

Don't touch anything.

ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP AVOIDING ME?

DELETE

Oh, my God!

Hello. You're exactly the same as the one I have.

How are you? I'm Angie Ni.

Yes! I love this bed so much!

It feels so good!

Hey.

You.

Baby elephant!

Sorry!

-Hey! -Sorry!

-What's wrong? -Sorry!

-Wait... -What's wrong?

-Hey! -Sorry!

Sorry...

-Who is she? -The new assistant Sophia hired.

Are you all right?

Angie, will you be my bride?

In courtship, a male elephant

will fight with other male elephants.

If a female elephant ignores the pursuit of a male elephant,

another male elephant will be waiting on the sidelines.

The female elephant has only a few days of estrus every four years.

The male elephant will fight for his chance, even if it means getting killed.

Morning.

Morning.

Ling Yun,

did you say yesterday that the girl is your assistant?

That's right! I told you yesterday.

She saw my elephant pajamas. Do you think she would tell others?

So be it! It's not a big deal.

What's her name?

Angie Ni.

Where does she live?

She seems to be staying in a hotel.

Why do you ask?

I found out that something went missing yesterday.

She stole your stuff?

No, it's not stealing. It's not a big deal.

It's just that something went missing.

What was it? Was it expensive?

-Just... small stuff. -What kind of small stuff?

It's just something that really matters to me.

Yi-Hang, can you be more specific?

It's something personal to me. I don't want to say what it is.

It's my secret!

Hello, I'd like to inquire about a room number.

Ring, ring, ring!

A big rooster goes cock-a-doodle-doo...

Ring, ring, ring!

You've got a call!

I can't get through.

Boss, we have Missy's room number.

Yes, sir!

Ring, ring, ring!

You've got a call!

Ring, ring, ring!

-Hello. -Hello.

Your father's henchmen are coming to get you.

You should run. Run fast.

Damn it, Lin Gui. You sold me out!

I'm trying to inform you now. Can't you see that?

I had no choice. I did what I had to do. And I'm telling you now.

If I get caught, you're a dead man!

There's no one there.

Damn it.

Angie.

Angie!

It's time to come home.

Let's go home together.

No way!

-Go get her! -Don't let her get away!

Stop her!

Hey!

Angie Ni.

Hurry up. Step on it!
