[Go Single Lady] Episode 1

Can you tell the difference between us?

Although we're both bleary-eyed and sporting bed hairs

we're indeed from two different worlds.

Dad!

Look.

Its flesh feels so fresh and juicy. It'll make a great stew.

We'll win for sure this year.

These two pigs are of the best breeds.

- Excellent! - Come on, let's feed them.

Bravo.

Although the summer of 2010 was as dry as the year before

it wasn't one of extreme heat.

It was also cooler at night.

The two downpours during the grape harvest early September

also prevented the grapes from being too dry.

The lower the tannin level

the better the wine quality.

The opening prices of red wine in Bordeaux in France back in May

further made sure that 2010 was a year which could measure up

to 1945 and 1961, two of the best years for red wine.

Therefore I'd recommend Bordeaux as a potential investment target.

Do you have a question?

Can you tell me if your father recommends the same wine?

When my father and I were selecting wines a few days ago

his recommendation was Burgundy.

Burgundy...

- I want Burgundy... - How much do I want to buy?

- That's right. - Burgundy...

Bordeaux is obviously better.

Gold prices are really coming back up.

Just as Dad expected.

I wonder how long the effect from the European debt crisis will last this time.

What a joke.

You must be kidding me.

Since the international prices for corn keep increasing

that means the price of pig feeds will also increase, right?

What are pigs suppose to eat if it becomes too expensive?

Cakes?

Cakes?

We never expected

that an invisible red thread actually exists between the two of us

tying us tightly together.

It all started at that wedding.

Don't you think the girl on the stage sounds terrible?

Can't you tell her to shut up?

Don't be like that, everyone's looking.

Come on.

The bride and groom are here to make a toast.

I've waited so long for your wedding.

If the groom doesn't kiss his bride then I won't drink with them.

That's right...

Kiss...

How much longer will this take?

It's getting late.

I have to go back and feed my pigs.

It won't be long. It'll be finished after they toast to us.

No.

Remember how I caught the bride's bouquet last time and the time before that?

How did she get married before me?

I was the one who caught it.

Next time.

- It'll be your turn next time. - Yeah, you'll be next.

Don't forget to invite us.

Come on, let's make a toast to Man Ling's upcoming wedding.

Come on, cheers!

Congratulations.

Did you hear that?

Let's drink first.

Congratulations...

Attention, all single ladies out there.

Please come forward to catch the bouquet.

It's been said that whoever catches the bride's bouquet

will become the next bride.

Although it's only a myth

for girls who are dying to get married

we're willing to believe anything.

- Who wants my bouquet? - Me...

Wang Man Ling, you've already caught the bouquet for the past three weddings.

When are you actually going to get married?

How are we supposed to get married if you get the bouquet every time?

Don't worry.

Do you think I like being beaten all the time?

I'll get married, just wait.

Come on, I've already got it.

Off you go...

Peter!

What are you doing?

Calm down.

Give me the microphone.

Give it.

You don't want to get punched on your wedding night, do you?

Give it to me.

Get off the stage.

Testing... one, two, three.

Dear family and friends.

I'd like to take up a bit of your time tonight.

Because my boyfriend, Peter, and I have been dating for exactly three months today.

Peter.

You should know I hate cowards.

Since we've been dating for a while now

are you serious about our relationship at all?

I want you to be brave and tell me today.

If you're not planning on a long term relationship

then you also tell me today.

Got it?

Good luck.

I wish you good health and longevity.

We wish you luck as well.

Oh god.

It's been the longest three months of my life.

If I marry her

based on her health condition

I'd probably have to put up with another thirty years before I can get her wealth.

Time's up, please come on to the stage.

Peter!

Go, Peter...

Go for it!

Peter...

Wang Man Ling.

I can't stand you anymore.

If it wasn't because of how filthy rich you are

I wouldn't want to put up with your bad temper for even an hour.

You want me to marry you?

There's no way that I'd marry a tigress like you

for the rest of my life or in my next life.

What's your problem?

Are you drunk?

Say it again if you dare.

Upstarts like you

who're uneducated, uncultured, tasteless, and spoiled

will never be loved by anyone.

You!

How dare you say that about me!

I'm going to kill you today!

Who do you think you are? You loser.

I'm going to kill you!

Calm down...

- Let me tell you, I thought... - Let go of me!

Be quiet, let me talk!

Let me tell you.

I thought if I tolerated your temper and did what you said

then I'll become part of the upper class.

But the upper class actually despise vulgar upstarts like you.

Be it parties, grand openings, or charity functions

you were never invited to any of them.

If I really end up marrying you

I'd live in misery at home everyday.

It'd be a humiliation for me to take you out!

What's so good about the upper class?

What so hard about being part of it?

In your dreams! You'll never be part of it.

No one will ever love you either!

- What? - Let me tell you.

I'll definitely become part of the upper class

and find a man who's richer, better-looking

and more educated and cultured than you.

The point is he'll be even richer than I am and will love me to death!

No way.

Good, hang on.

- What are you doing? - What am I doing?

Do you have the guts to say that again?

Say it again!

Don't do it.

- I, Wang Man Ling, swear... - Calm down!

- Let go of me! - Say it!

If I don't find a man who's richer and better-looking than you in a year's time

then I'll shave off my hair and become a Buddhist nun!

As you can all see, it's all been recorded.

- Delete it! - God has heard you.

- Get away from me! - Delete it...

Calm down...

You idiot!

What did I say just then?

You're going to become a nun.

Uncle He.

Our pig has just given birth to some piglets, right?

How are they doing?

They're quite healthy.

I'll give them their vaccines in a few days.

- That's good to hear. - Don't worry.

Here you go.

I thought Wei Cheng came back from Australia.

Where is he?

I told him not to come back.

Since he just started working at the hospital

his job's still not stable yet.

I think you're just too shy.

- Look at you. - Eat slowly.

You should go and see a doctor.

Why do I need a doctor when I'm a vet myself?

A vet?

Human and animals are very different.

You must be scared of needles.

Why would an old man like you be scared of needles?

Should we leave some food for Man Ling?

No, it's okay.

Man Ling's gone out with Peter tonight.

- Peter? - They've gone to a wedding.

I don't feel like having dinner tonight.

- Try this bamboo shoot. - It's delicious.

Really? I cooked it myself.

It goes really well with the beef.

You bastard.

Creep.

Jerk.

Idiot.

Nerd.

Who said girls who catch the bouquet would get married soon?

Do you know how many bouquets I've caught?

Too many.

But it still didn't help.

I just want to find a good man.

Is it really that hard?

Have they all become extinct?

Where had all the good men gone?

I'm brave, I shouldn't cry.

I'm not crying.

Do you see me crying at all?

People often say you'll get use to it after a few times.

What's the big deal about breaking up?

I'll just have to look for another man.

Welcome...

- Share it around. - Let's have congee.

Look at all these dishes.

At times, when faced with life's joy and sorrows

I'm not the only one who's professional at it.

I've managed to train everyone in my family to become very mature about it.

- Let's eat. - Come on.

Let's eat.

It's bamboo shoot.

I heard there'll be a typhoon next week.

Since the demand for vegetables will increase

I guess the agricultural association's demand will also increase, right?

- It's always like that. - Exactly.

Don't you worry.

I've already asked Xiao Sa to go make two trips to Taipei today.

He'll settle it for you, okay?

- That's right. - Don't worry.

Okay.

Oh yeah, these flowers aren't recyclable.

You should throw it out separately.

Otherwise, we'll get fined.

Okay.

Actually, that P... what's his name again?

Peter.

He's not a good man.

From the first time I saw him, I knew he was wrong.

He's not the right guy.

Don't worry about it.

Yeah, you'll find someone better next time.

Okay?

We just broke up.

Let me take a break first.

Also, I've already got a bet with Peter.

I must find a rich and good-looking guy within one year.

He must be tall, handsome and tasteful.

A rich and perfect husband who's not after my money.

Aren't your standards a bit too high?

Of course not.

I just want to make my requirements clear and simple.

Don't worry.

Xiou Wen will help me.

All right, that's good.

They'll take care of it themselves.

But this is what I think.

Sometimes you don't need to look so far.

You might not realize how many great guys you have around you.

Perhaps they're just around the corner.

Haven't you noticed at all?

What do you mean?

Remember...

Wei Cheng?

Yeah, that's it.

Wei Cheng, the crybaby?

Come on, I've always bullied him.

Why would he like me?

Don't worry.

I'll definitely find my Mr. Right.

Is that what you call it?

That's right, let's just let them work out their own relationships.

Yeah, although he's a doctor, you still can't force him, right?

That's right.

One day

a friend of mine asked a millionaire

how he became so rich.

The millionaire said his father gave him an apple when he was young.

He sold the apple and bought a pineapple for a very cheap price.

He then sold the pineapple for a high price

and bought some bananas that were in season.

That was how the millionaire earned himself a huge amount of money.

Actually, the key to great wealth is simple.

Buy low and sell high.

Whether you want to choose cotton, wheat, or red wine

that's not the point at all.

The important thing is

to buy at the right time.

Everyone

if you want to get rich quickly, then it's simple.

You can either choose to trust yourselves

or to trust the biggest investment firm in Asia

Da Wu Xian Investment Company.

As long as you put your trust in us

Da Wu Xian will guarantee to bring wealth to your lives.

I haven't finished my story on the millionaire yet.

Actually

the reason why he got rich

was because he took over all of his father's wealth.

So the moral of the story

is not about the importance of investment.

It's all about being born into the right family.

My name's Fanjiang Yu.

But most people would call me Fanjiang Rong's son.

Many people would wonder exactly what my total wealth is.

Sorry, I don't know.

Actually, I've never bothered to calculate exactly how much money I have.

Because my wealth continues to increase

as I breathe every second.

A NT$3,600 speeding fine? I don't care.

When I'm in a rush, time is money.

Oh my god.

I told you our models can't be dressed too dully or too brightly.

We must attract the customer's curiosity

yet still making them feel they can wear it after they buy it.

Take them off and put on these two dresses instead.

Don't forget to change the shoes as well.

Hello?

Ya Zi, I'm at the door.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Wait for me.

Christine. I'll come back to check on it this afternoon.

Okay.

I've got the wrong dress on.

I should have worn my red dress instead.

I'd look like a car accessory if I sit in your car.

So what should we do?

Sorry.

I didn't mean to spoil our anniversary.

Don't worry, babe, that's not a problem.

Easy, leave it with me.

Let's go.

Please.

Mr. Fanjiang, this type of car goes from 0 to 100 in just 5.9 seconds.

So do you like it?

This car's color is a total contrast to my dress.

It's a perfect match.

Okay.

Okay, I'll take it.

I'm sorry, but Director Li's already ordered this particular car just then.

Okay, I understand.

I'm very sorry...

Don't worry.

Let me deal with the problem.

Hello, Uncle Li.

I'm Xiao Yu, Fanjiang Rong's son, long time no see.

- I heard you just bought that car. - That's right.

Actually, my dad's got the same taste as you

and wants to buy the same one as well...

[Cupido Matchmaking Agency]

I want to become a VIP.

You don't qualify in becoming a VIP.

Why not?

I'm single and I'm a billionaire.

Wang Man Ling, being a billionaire doesn't guarantee you a good man.

What did you say to Director Li just then?

Easy.

I just reminded him that my dad's birthday is coming up

and he really likes this car.

I wish I had an almighty dad like yours.

You do?

But sometimes I wish they'd have the guts to ask me

who Fanjiang Rong is.

You must be kidding.

You find that funny?

Of course.

Who would dare go against your dad?

Where are we going for lunch?

You choose.

The upper class is not what you think it is.

Apart from being rich

they also care about your background, family, networks, and reputation.

There are two types of people whom they'd refuse to hang around with.

The first type are people who're bankrupt.

The second type are upstarts who're tasteless and uncultured.

What upstarts?

Who's tasteless and uncultured?

Darling, it's for your own good.

They only look for respectable and graceful ladies.

You're really not their cup of tea.

I can pretend to be a lady.

It's not that hard.

Are you saying no to me, Gao Xiou Wen?

Wang Man Ling.

If you really insist

I can let you become our VIP and organize a matchmaking date for you.

But...

you must promise me one thing.

No matter how annoying they are

you must not get violent and flip tables.

I don't want to receive any complaints against you.

I promise that I won't get violent and flip tables.

Pigs aren't stupid.

You're much dumber than pigs, you fat blob!

How dare you ask me to go to a motel on our first date!

How despicable.

What's so good about Harvard?

You probably can't even tell an onion from a garlic!

Yes, I'm very sorry about that.

Absolutely...

We'll definitely screen our VIP members in future.

Okay, thank you...

- Miss... - All right, no need to apologize.

I didn't expect the upper class people to be so despicable.

Listen, you must screen your VIPs in future.

- They're so despicable. - You're the one who's despicable.

Remember you promised me that you wouldn't get violent?

You should have seen how arrogant they were.

That Harvard guy was so ridiculous.

He would have believed me if I'd told him that watermelons grow on trees.

Watermelons grow on trees.

- Watermelons grow on trees. - You're actually laughing?

I'm almost in tears after getting all your complaint calls.

What's the big deal?

We'll just find somebody else.

We should look ahead, right?

If we keep looking then we'll definitely find someone suitable.

Miss Wang, there isn't going to be a next one.

After news got out, you've already been blacklisted by all our VIP members.

Who was the big mouth?

I'll chop him up into pieces.

Wasn't it obvious enough?

All the restaurant guests helped to spread the word as soon as you turned the table.

So not only are you blacklisted by all other matchmaking agencies now

but you're not welcomed at any restaurants either.

So everyone's against me now?

Xiou Wen.

Can you bear to see me all alone for the rest of my life?

Maybe this can be your last hope.

Here's a guy who'll soon be coming back from Australia.

Since his mom's applied for him

so he still hasn't heard about you yet.

Listen, Wang Man Ling.

This is your last chance to try and get yourself into the upper class.

If you mess up again then nobody can help you.

I know, I'll make the most of it.

Give it to me, let go.

Are you kidding?

Who would use a baby photo for matchmaking?

His mom isn't exactly a computer whiz.

She spent a long time looking for this photo.

She sincerely wants to find a good daughter-in-law.

How am I suppose to meet him if I don't even know what he looks like?

Don't worry, I've already figured it out with his mom.

You two can use a red rose as your symbol.

A red rose?

That's so vulgar.

Vulgar?

Doesn't that exactly fit in with your character?

- Listen. - Honey.

Look at your ad.

You look great.

What kind of a retirement life do you want to have?

On a charming Greek island?

In a classical European castle?

As long as you trust in Da Wu Xian

we'll make your dream come true.

Get rich with Da Wu Xian.

Turn it off.

What's wrong?

Until today

I've always succeeded in every investment target that I've picked out.

My only investment failure is your precious son.

Don't say that about Xiao Yu.

What do you mean my precious son?

Don't forget you're also the other shareholder.

The fact that I can't sell off my shares has caused me huge losses.

All right, don't be mad, honey.

Here, you want to have some fruit?

You know what?

Your precious son has used my reputation to muck around again.

That's not mucking around.

Since your birthday's coming up

so he just wants to be a good son

and buy you a sports car as your birthday present.

Look at the cars in our garage.

We've got all kinds of cars.

Yet he's bought another one.

Did you know that ever since you gave him a Black Card

he's been spending even more money.

He's already spent 6.4 million dollars this month.

I don't care how much he spends.

The problem is he can't even earn a buck.

It's just a car, don't be so mad.

He's started to invest in artworks lately.

So he's trying to make a first step.

Artworks?

Please tell him not to do that.

If he does that, I don't know how much money I'm going to lose again.

Don't do it.

Xiao Yu's still a kid.

A kid?

He's already twenty-nine years old.

You call that a kid?

What was I doing when I was twenty-nine? What's he doing now?

I really don't know how much longer he's going to rely on me.

When will he actually become a mature and responsible man?

David.

I think life is so tiring.

Ever since I was young

no matter what I wanted to do

my dad's always been so discouraging.

He never trusted me.

I really hate my life.

Boss, don't think about it too much.

You're destined to be successful the moment you were conceived.

You're the winner.

Everyone envy you.

Envy me? What's there to envy about?

No matter how hard I try, they only remember my dad's name.

Nobody ever remembers me.

But the fact is, you're the director's son.

That's right.

But do people call you so-and-so's son?

Yeah.

My dad's friends do.

Of course.

But what about your friends, colleagues, and people that you don't know?

Would they call you so-and-so's son and treat you as if you were invisible?

All they ever say to me is

say hello to your father...

or what has your dad been investing in lately.

What am I?

My dad's messenger?

Why don't they ask him themselves? Don't come and bother me.

Boss, don't think too much.

Think about it.

Look at your bank account, sports cars and everything else that they don't have.

Also, no one can ever break your record in swiping credit cards.

I really want to see if I can swipe myself bankrupt one day.

No way, Boss, no matter how hard you swipe

once you take a deep breath...

your life will be the same again.

But, Boss

your credit card statement this month does look a little over the top.

Who cares?

Cheers.

You know what?

I really want to become a useful person.

I really want to be like my dad

and succeed without having to rely on my father.

I want to make my dad proud.

Make my dad proud.

Mom?

Why did you call so early?

Xiao Yu.

Since you slept over at David's place last night

I'm a little worried about you.

I'll come pick you up now.

Let's have breakfast before we go to the Modern Art Gallery.

I thought you wanted to get an artwork for this weekend's charity auction.

I've chosen an artwork for you.

Okay.

Let's go and have breakfast at a hotel first.

Then we'll go to the exhibition.

Let's see what your taste is like.

All right, see you soon.

What's that?

I need a shower, I stink really bad.

This painting's not bad.

I wonder who the artist is.

She's an up-and-coming artist.

I don't think you've heard of her before.

But she's already received quite a few awards in Taiwan.

She's surely on the way up.

Really?

If we can use this painting for the auction

I'm sure a lot of people would be interested.

- You certainly have great taste, Mom. - Really?

Both your dad and I really like this artist's paintings.

Let's use this painting for this weekend's auction.

- So Dad also recommended this painting? - Of course.

Knowing your dad

he's just pretending that he doesn't care.

He actually spent so much time looking for an artwork for you.

It's a coincidence that the two of you fell in love

with the same painting out of so many artworks.

Since it's your first investment in artworks

you'll be fine with your dad's pick as your endorsement.

If Dad had not said it was a good painting

would you still have trusted my judgment?

Of course I would.

Anyway, you both like the same painting, right?

- Isn't that great? - No, it's not.

I don't want Dad to be my endorsement again.

I'll choose my own artwork for the auction.

But your dad is already going to meet with the artist to talk about the painting.

I'm also going to meet her at Ren Wen Cafe tomorrow afternoon.

Mom, you should know that the auction is a chance for me to prove my ability.

Of course you can still prove your ability.

Xiao Yu, this is your first step in artwork investment.

You can't afford to fail.

If your investment is successful...

Then it's because of Dad's great judgment, not mine.

Mom.

I really don't want people to call me a daddy's boy anymore.

What's wrong with being a daddy's boy?

Many people would die to be a daddy's boy.

Also...

the director really takes good care of you.

No, he just doesn't trust me.

Then, Boss

can't you let me go to sleep now?

You've already spent a whole night at my place.

My work hours have already ended a few hours ago.

I really miss my bed.

What's the big deal?

I'll pay you overtime, okay?

That's weird.

Why do they want to sign the contract so quickly?

If we suddenly withdraw from the deal now

then the whole industry would think it's our fault.

Yeah, but not if the artist decides to pull out herself.

What did you say just then?
