=Episode 11=

(Ran, have you noticed)

(that you can't seem to stop talking about Lu Cenyang?)

How could I possibly fall for a mean guy

who can upset me for quite some time with just a few words?

He just rejected cooperating with Mr. Liu for my sake

and exposed Taylor's crimes.

In front of my grandma,

he defended me.

He showed compassion for the children in the orphanage.

Could that really make me fall for him?

(He has a girlfriend.)

(It's just a secret affair.)

If I did anything wrong, at most,

I saw your romantic

relationship with Ms. Yao.

I'm not blind.

The way you rushed to the hospital just now,

doesn't that explain it?

Let me reiterate.

I am not dating Ms. Yao.

We are purely business partners.

Do you understand?

I don't need your explanation.

Boss, who you like is none of my business.

Could it be

that I am jealous?

Now the meeting starts.

Please open the files we sorted out yesterday.

(To Bu Ran: The account number for the rent penalty is...)

(To Lu Cenyang: The account number for the rent penalty is...)

Bu Ran,

we're in a meeting. Be serious.

(Lu Cenyang)

Thanks to you on that day.

But you have to keep my health condition a secret.

Normally, I don't gossip

with my colleagues.

You're really funny.

Are you free tonight?

Shall we grab a drink?

(Ms. Yao has been overseeing)

(internal operations of the company.)

(Maintain a certain distance from her.)

When you're in good shape,

we can have a drink by then.

You refused my invitation.

Did the boss say something?

This is really useful.

I like it very much.

Come on, let's have a drink.

The boss can't interfere with our friendship.

Alright then.

You are not asking me out

just to thank me, right?

It's also because I discovered

your relationship with Mr. Lu, right?

What kind of relationship did you find I have with Mr. Lu?

Office romance doesn't usually go public,

let alone relationship between a boss and a secretary.

I understand that you don't want to go public with it.

Why do you think

that Mr. Lu and I are secretly dating?

You fainted.

I didn't tell him.

But he rushed there right away

and was very anxious.

He even warned me fiercely

as if I violated some sacred law.

A domineering boss

always has some strange reasons

for not wanting it to go public.

I understand that.

I promise to keep my mouth shut.

I don't want to lose my job.

My headache is an old problem.

Dr. Ma is my attending physician.

He must have informed the boss.

If I were to be hospitalized,

it would definitely affect many things at the company.

How could the boss not be worried?

I'm just Mr. Lu's subordinate.

Is that so?

Don't worry.

Whatever you say goes.

I'll take your word for it.

Why don't you believe me?

I can't wait for Mrs. Lu to appear

to marry him.

So I won't be the one pushed out to take the hits.

Mr. Lu has been single for so many years.

I even suspect there might be an issue with his sexual orientation.

Could it be?

Which type do you think he likes?

Masculine or feminine?

I think it should be...

Isn't this the famous designer Bu Ran?

You secured the Welfare Center Project at such a young age.

You truly have a promising future.

Who is this beauty?

Aren't you going to introduce her?

She is my friend,

not someone you can flirt with.

I'm not saying I want to flirt with her.

A toast, shall we?

Come on.

Bu Ran,

who do you think you are?

Dare to splatter me in public?

Are you going crazy?

Mr. Yi,

Pinshang dealt with you a few times.

You don't even know me,

Mr. Lu's secretary.

Your intelligence work is so poor, isn't it?

You are just Lu Cenyang's secretary.

I can't see what's so special.

You really think highly of yourself, don't you?

Mr. Yi, I've heard quite a lot of gossips

about you.

You are the most talked-about man in the industry.

All the women you are interested in

will get taken care of by the Meng Family.

One must be quite blind

to try to become your companion.

Bu Ran,

he just called me a beauty.

Should I hurry up and buy an amulet

to ward off evil for myself?

Let's go.

Stop! Make yourself clear.

Let go.

Believe it or not,

I'll have a colleague from the Legal Department talk to you

and help you become even more famous.

Let's go.

I didn't expect you to be so good at confronting people.

I just drank some wine.

Such a killjoy.

I haven't had enough.

In that case,

let's continue at my place.

Okay.

Let's go.

Cheers.

Your house is really beautiful.

You've arranged the inconspicuous old things

so elegantly.

Beautiful, isn't it?

When I studied abroad,

I designed for some friends who couldn't afford

to decorate houses.

They didn't know how to express their gratitude.

So I would accept these things they didn't want.

Small stools,

picture frames,

and some old flowerpots.

These things

bear the imprint of life

as well as the friendship between us.

It took quite an effort to bring them back.

I can see you really like designing.

That's why you decorated

your house so carefully.

No matter how much I love designing,

it's just as hard to find a job back home.

There's actually a little trick to this renovation.

I want to hear it.

I got rejected at the interview with Pinshang.

I was quite unconvinced.

I found out the apartment opposite Mr. Lu's was vacant.

I managed to rent it

so that Mr. Lu could see my talent.

He couldn't afford to miss

a designer with much sentiment.

You succeeded, didn't you?

Not at all.

Mr. Lu told me to take the opportunity of living in a high-end community

to scope out more high-net-worth clients downstairs.

He wished me prosperity.

Mr. Lu trusts you a lot now.

He's entrusted you with the most valued projects of the company.

I believe you'll definitely make your mark in the future.

I hope so.

I just hope

he won't stand by me one moment

and turn his back the next.

Being fickle, changing like the weather.

Ms. Yao,

you just said his orientation was questionable.

I was just kidding.

Mr. Lu's orientation is normal.

He just doesn't fall for someone easily.

Why?

Because once he has someone he likes,

he gains a vulnerability that adversaries can exploit.

That's why he doesn't easily show his feelings.

I see.

He has it tough too.

You two live next door.

Has he extended any neighborly courtesy?

Don't mention it.

The first time I went to work, I had a flat tire.

I hoped to hitch a ride.

He told me to take a taxi by myself

and quickly drove off by himself.

It sounds like something he would do.

Next time his car breaks down, you should also tell him to take a taxi.

I will have him run behind my car.

Come on.

Cheers.

(Industry Competition: Data, Trends, Competitor Analysis)

As soon as I got back,

the female client got very angry.

I just kept apologizing.

I kept apologizing.

That made me so mad.

I really was...

When I went back, I wanted to...

Bu Ran.

Ms. Yao, let's continue to drink.

Get up. It's cold on the ground.

My drink...

My drink.

Get up.

My drink.

(Yao Lefei)

(Are you home yet?)

(Voice call)

What took you so long?

Come in.

I just wanted to test

Bu Ran's depth of character,

I didn't expect she got drunk so easily.

Wait for a sec.

I will take you home in a while.

No need.

Hello, Sir.

I'm coming down.

The car I called for is here.

Carry her to the bed. Don't let her catch a cold.

I'm leaving.

Take care.

I'm off.

Ms. Yao,

we had a great chat today.

It was satisfying to vent about Mr. Lu.

You may think Mr. Lu is good at business,

but he has a stupid side.

Not just one side,

but many sides.

Like a wooden fish that only makes noise when knocked.

Ms. Yao,

thank you for being willing to be my friend.

All these years,

I just

went all out to pursue a goal alone.

No wonder Mr. Lu wants me to cooperate with everyone on the team.

I simply don't know how to make friends

or how to cooperate with everyone.

Although...

But...

If I can't make it to the groundbreaking ceremony,

I would feel very regretful.

I also want to make friends properly.

I also want to put my heart into it.

But what should I do?

♪Too late to become warm wings♪

♪Soothing your sorrow♪

♪Clearing the clouds away for you♪

Good morning, Boss.

It's not very early now.

Remember, you have to reduce the rent as promised.

Do your ears work intermittently?

You heard very clearly when it comes to rent reduction.

Why is it so little today?

I had a little alcohol last night.

I overcooked the porridge.

You can't drink much, right?

Who are you looking down on?

I can drink a bit.

It's just that I'm not used to drinking.

You have the talent to tell bare-faced lies.

You're cut out for marketing.

Keep working out in the Marketing Department.

Today is the groundbreaking ceremony for renovation of the Welfare Center.

There'll be many distinguished guests.

Don't embarrass me today.

Can I go there?

Go change into something more formal.

We'll head out together.

Okay, Boss.

♪This very second's pause is just right♪

♪We've all passed by this street corner♪

♪The anxious heart pounds erratically♪

Thank you very much

for the wonderful speeches by Charity Federation and all the leaders.

And thanks to Mr. Lu of Pinshang

and Ms. Hua of Yihua.

I believe

with their strong support and help,

the children at the orphanage

will surely grow up healthier and happier.

The future of the Welfare Center will be even brighter.

- Bravo! - Bravo!

♪I hope you don't easily reject my invitation♪

The foundation-laying ceremony now officially begins.

- Bravo! - Bravo!

- Bravo! - Bravo!

- Bravo! - Bravo!

♪I hope you don't easily reject my invitation♪

♪Without any other disturbances, the heart-flutter continues every second♪

Let me introduce her.

This is

Bu Ran, the chief architect of the new Welfare Center.

To fulfill

the dreams of the children at the Welfare Center,

she has put in a lot of effort.

She is good-looking and kind-hearted.

Really nice.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Well done.

Thank you, Director.

I've seen your design.

Mr. Lu truly has an eye for talent.

Keep up the good work

not only to make your boss proud

but also to bring honor to your family.

Thank you. I will.

Ms. Hua.

Bu Ran,

you'll inevitably interact with Ms. Hua.

If Ms. Hua lifts a finger, the construction will be affected.

You have to listen to her instructions.

If you want to finish on schedule with good quality,

you must remember her admonitions.

Mr. Lu,

as the representative of the contractor,

please say a few words to everyone.

Director, I grew up here.

I'm about to say goodbye to my old home.

It's hard to part with it.

I really don't know what to say.

Bu Ran,

please make a speech on my behalf

from a designer's perspective.

Tell everyone our intentions and will.

Bu Ran, please say a few words.

Yes, Bu Ran.

Bu Ran, please say a few words.

Thank you for your encouragement.

Actually, when I first came to measure this place,

I came with a naive mindset

to work

on an awesome project.

But when I stepped into the orphanage,

I didn't see an opportunity

but the innocent smiles of the children.

I felt ashamed.

On their faces,

you can always see positivity and optimism.

They help each other and love each other.

They used magical lollipops

to inspire me to return to my original aspiration in learning spatial design.

For me,

this is an opportunity

filled with endless possibilities and challenges.

For the children,

this is their home,

carrying the future and warmth.

I realized

that good spatial design

could make its users

find the missing pieces of happiness.

I hope you can continue to support the renovation of the Welfare Center.

Let's give this place a new life together.

- Bravo! - Bravo!

(Rainbow Welfare Center Foundation-Laying Ceremony)

Morning.

Your porridge.

(Caution: Construction in Progress)

It's so big.

Bu Ran, the magic has worked.

I really like the new classroom.

Do you like it?

Yes.

Uncle Lu is quite amazing.

He used the best materials for us.

We won't have to worry about the moldy walls

staining our clothes.

Uncle Lu, Bu Ran,

we want to play games in the classroom.

Can you play with us?

- Will you play with us? - Will you play with us?

If someone gets caught by me,

they have to give me a kiss, okay?

- Okay. - Okay.

Are you ready?

Yes.

Play the music.

Give me a kiss.

So good.

Continue.

Let's see who is next.

♪A group of ducks swam by♪

Uncle Lu got caught.

Uncle Lu.

Uncle Lu can perform a frog jump.

Do you want to see it?

- Yes. - Yes.

- Yes. - Yes.

Okay.

Uncle Lu is so awesome.

So Uncle Lu is the Frog Prince.

It's time to take photos.

Come on.

Is the watermelon sweet?

Sweet.

Once more, is the watermelon sweet?

Sweet.

Look, these kids have the brightest smiles.

The kids are so adorable.

It seems they really like

the new orphanage you designed.

When I have children in the future,

I'd want that design too.

Bu Ran,

you must come and help then.

No problem.

Okay.

We should also take a look then.

We can also learn something.

Alright.

Isn't this Mr. Lu?

I didn't expect

Mr. Lu could be so childlike.

Indeed.

Really, Mr. Lu.

Alright, that's all for now.

Time to get off work.

Bu Ran, you'll have to take more pictures next time.

You...

Shall we have dinner together?

You are here.

Look,

how cute these children are.

Why do I feel your face

looks bigger in this photo?

Take a look.

No way.

I was in the front.

Let me see.

When you are not in a photo,

your face is quite big in reality too.

You're talking nonsense.

I have a very important proposal to review.

Go to the company and find it.

Then bring it to my house.

What are you needed for?

I have a very important proposal to review.

Go to the company and find it.

Then bring it to my house.

What's the matter?

Going back to the company.

Why are you going back to the company at this hour?

The boss is ruthless. No choice.

Being a boss is really something.

You have to make me get the proposal.

You opened the door way too quickly.

If you complained a bit louder,

I could wait for you downstairs.

I was just rapping to kill the time.

Are you making tea?

The fragrance of your tea can even be smelled downstairs.

Well, I shouldn't let your effort be in vain.

You've had your fill at the Old Pal's.

You should come back for some tea to freshen up.

You might as well say

that you felt bad about sending me to get the proposal.

How did you know I went to Old Pal's?

Well...

Your daily routine is so predictable.

Want some tea?

Nice tea set.

Finely crafted.

And the patina is quite thick.

I'm too lazy to use them when I have tea alone.

I feel a bit guilty to them.

If you like them, I'll give them to you.

Tea sets need to be maintained.

You're too lazy to use them, so you want me to maintain them for you.

Is that how you see me? Always looking to take advantage of others?

A gift is a gift.

When you run errands for me,

just do it willingly.

No gains without pains.

How can I simply accept such valuable

tea sets without a reason?

(Am I being too obviously nice to her?)

If you think it's too valuable,

take a look at these design drawings

and find faults.

Give me a report before you get off work tomorrow.

I was wondering.

Something's behind it.

You want me to offend the colleagues in the Design Dept.?

I won't do it.

Good night.

(I wanted to give her something.)

(How come it made her angry?)

Only I will read the report.

If the suggestion is satisfactory to me,

I'll transfer you to Design Dept.

Boss,

I don't think the good tea from your house should be wasted.

I happen to have nice tea snacks.

So I brought them over.

We can eat and drink while talking about work.
