(Ms. Hua,)

(Do other projects of Yihua)

(also have such problems?)

(On behalf of Yihua Group,)

(I first want to apologize to everyone.)

(We did not in the first instance)

(understand Taylor's illegal acts.)

Thank you.

(But we can responsibly tell everyone)

(our Yihua Group has not formally)

(signed a contract with Taylor.)

(So)

we will not work with him in the future.

Ms. Hua, say a few more words, please.

Stop filming.

Ms. Hua, don't go.

Stop filming.

Please say something.

Don't go.

Answer directly please, Ms. Hua.

Say a few words, Ms. Hua.

♪Should they intersect or remain parallel without meeting♪

The deposit from Yihua is here for you to handle.

I, I want to thank you all.

Thank you for telling me the truth.

Telling me what has happened to my brother all these years.

He has always had me impersonate him and take his place

to prevent him from being harmed and arrested.

So all along

he has needed me to negotiate on his behalf.

I am like a puppet

while he is in control behind the scenes.

This is really to my disadvantage.

So you really saved me.

Thank you all.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Goodbye

Kerry,

I have to thank you for your help.

It allowed Mr. Ethan

to switch sides from Yi Mincai to my camp.

(Thank you for giving me this chance to reform.)

Ethan has already agreed.

You didn't mind that I drugged your drink

and were willing to give me a chance to do something for you.

I should be the one thanking you.

Everyone makes wrong choices at times.

This time, I choose to stay by your side and learn from you.

Would you despise it?

Pinshang's Marketing Department has an opening.

Talents like you who understand both marketing and networking...

Chairman.

What is this?

Due to Mr. Taylor's scandal,

we were disqualified from bidding on this project for the Welfare Center.

Because Lu Cenyang exposed Taylor's affair, he was commended.

The upper management directly awarded the project to Pinshang.

They made a name for themselves in one battle in Hai Shi this time.

Yi Mincai, this idiot.

Hello.

Ms. Hua,

Did you receive the gift I sent you?

I want to see if the blade you sent is sharp enough.

I will definitely get to the bottom of Taylor's scandal.

I've known about your son using a fake Taylor to deceive me

for a long time.

Since you have already reaped what you sowed,

I won't pursue it relentlessly anymore.

Mr. Yi's deposit to bribe the fake Taylor was fully returned.

Hope you're in a good mood today.

Mom.

You signed a contract with a fake behind my back,

giving people a handle.

Not a penny less of the deposit you gave the fake Taylor.

But my old face was slapped too hard by Lu Cenyang.

Kneel down and reflect

until you know where you went wrong.

Mom,

this is the company.

Mom,

I'm already this old.

Can you let go completely for once

and let me take full responsibility?

Watch how I deal with that Lu Cenyang.

Dealing with Lu Cenyang is your responsibility, not something to show me.

For saying this,

it shows you've lived your years in vain.

If you had half the careful thought your brother once had,

I would have trusted you completely a long time ago.

My brother now only drinks and sunbathes.

I am useless,

but I can still help the company grow and become stronger.

Mom.

Mom.

It's justified for you to teach your son a lesson.

But once a man loses his credibility,

what else can people expect from him?

Thank you for speaking up for me.

You...

It's destined that you would slip up.

Putting aside your identity,

you're lacking in every aspect.

You...

What are you talking about?

Kerry had it all planned out from the start,

trying to cling to Lu Cenyang.

You actually believe you're very charming.

Boss, vegetable meat noodles, please.

Okay, just a moment.

The noodles would taste better with the beef.

This bowl of noodles is on me.

Don't play the victim.

Your "thank you" is really stingy.

Thank you.

It's not just for you that I do this.

I know.

It's for the children of the Welfare Center.

I've carefully reviewed your design for the Welfare Center.

It's a thoughtful and cost-effective plan.

It has its merits.

But I disagree

to using a cheap renovation plan.

Low cost doesn't mean it feels cheap.

In my plan,

indeed, there is very little budgeted for construction materials.

But we can replace the cheap materials

with durable, special environmental materials.

So now, what do you think of my plan?

It can be accepted by Pinshang.

What?

Do you still want to join Pinshang?

Mr. Lu.

(Lucky)

I need to take a call. I'll be right back.

Please wait a moment.

Grandma.

(Ran,)

(This time, Lu Cenyang used the Taylor incident)

(to deal a heavy blow to Yihua.)

(It's time for you to fulfill your promise.)

(If you have already gained Lu Cenyang's trust,)

(come over tonight and tell me)

(about the specific details of Pinshang's Welfare Center project.)

I won't come over today.

Grandma, the Welfare Center is not a tool for your games.

I hope after I refuse you this time,

if you have any resentment, just come to me.

Don't target my mother.

(I see.)

Hey.

I can finally go to Pinshang.

It was because of a promise I made with Grandma.

But this time,

I can finally take control of my own destiny.

You think I'm a loser?

Yes.

I'm a bit of a loser.

Even though I had refused him before,

as soon as my neighbor invited me, I immediately agreed to take the job.

I was looking for you. Let's talk inside.

No need to go in. Let's just talk here for a moment.

How about it? Do you want to join Pinshang?

Of course I do.

Can you answer a question for me first?

The reason you suddenly invited me to join Pinshang.

Of course, it's because you are valuable to Pinshang.

That's so like you.

Sounds just like you haven't said anything.

Could it be that you want to compensate me because of a misunderstanding?

So much nonsense.

What do you say? Make a statement.

If you want me to agree, fine.

But you have to apologize to me.

I hate it most when others wrong me.

I need this job, but I need respect even more.

I...

I'm not in the habit of apologizing to subordinates.

Don't you really want this job?

Why beg for a job when you lose face?

Oh right,

should I WeChat transfer you next month's rent?

Whatever.

WeChat might have a transfer limit.

I'll transfer it from my bank account.

That works.

Almost forgot something important.

I didn't fulfill my promise with Douhua.

I want to go apologize to her.

But I promised you

I wouldn't go to the Welfare Center again.

I'm just going to apologize. It's not going back on my word, is it?

You've said before only scum would use

scum that Taylor designed.

So you indirectly insulted me.

Can this offset the misunderstanding?

You said it.

It's not impossible.

If you join us, you can go to the Welfare Center whenever you like.

Sorry, it's offset.

Don't be late on Monday.

Mr. Lu,

will you make me become

a better designer than Taylor?

As long as you work together with Pinshang

and let the world see that China's spatial design is the best,

you will definitely hear Taylor

say sorry to you.

♪I will give my all♪

♪We roam the interwoven constellations♪

♪We sleep under the most beautiful sky♪

♪We hold hands and save each other♪

Onboard Bu Ran next Monday.

(Boss, have you thought it through?)

(She is Yi Minde's daughter.)

I know.

(I understand now.)

(You want to keep Bu Ran by your side)

(as a trump card against Yihua.)

That's a good idea.

But I didn't think that way.

(So...)

It's simple.

There is no problem with her now,

but her personality, frankly, is not commendable.

Let her join Pinshang and gain some good experience.

Consider it as compensation for her efforts

at the Welfare Center.

(Understood, Boss.)

You've been running back and forth recently.

You must be exhausted, right?

I'm not tired, Mom.

I just like being with you.

Family member of Bu Huiyun,

this is Bu Huiyun's settlement list.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Ran,

the living expenses you gave me are spent.

No need to rush.

I've found a job.

I can start working next week.

Which company is it? Are you going to be a designer?

Don't worry, Mom.

I know the boss of this company.

He values my design work very much.

This time, I am going to realize my dream.

Which careless company is it?

Could you please not talk nonsense?

Pinshang is considered a leader in the industry.

Pinshang?

Is it the Pinshang owned by Lu Cenyang?

Ran,

I heard

Pinshang had some conflicts with Yihua.

I know.

I know the relationship between Lu Cenyang and grandma.

You didn't tell him

you were from the Yi family?

We didn't have the chance to talk about this.

If your boss finds out about your identity,

will it affect your work?

I am not the same as grandma and my second uncle.

I've helped him.

The discharge procedures have all been completed.

It's a day of double happiness.

Let's go celebrate at my bar.

Give it to me.

Let's go, to drink.

There's nothing a drink can't solve.

I'm going now, Mom.

Slow down.

We've investigated it.

Bu Ran did not come forward again,

but Qin Xun, who studied abroad with her,

is very familiar with Taylor's situation.

It was him who had been helping Lu Cenyang in secret.

I can't deal with Lu,

but I can deal with you.

Bu Ran, you go take uncle and aunt upstairs first.

I'll go park the car.

Okay.

Pretending not to know me?

You, Bu Ran's lackey.

Don't you know who I am?

Isn't this the little brother?

If you're here to support me, take a seat inside.

If you don't spend a six-figure sum today,

you'll let down your family name.

Knowing my surname,

you should be clear why I am looking for you.

Lu Cenyang is relentlessly pursuing Taylor.

You're the one backing him?

I've put in so much effort to get involved with Taylor,

but you've ruined it all.

I have something to do.

I don't have time to waste with you, move aside.

Let's see if you can make your way past.

Or crawl past.

Get him.

What a coincidence, Mr. Yi.

Bringing so many people here to cause trouble?

I want to talk to Qin Xun.

Not getting in your way.

Qin Xun.

Why did it take you so long?

Is that Zihe?

How did you get here?

You are here too.

Do you recognize this person before me?

Of course, I do.

You must be Mingyu's son, right?

Haven't seen you in years, you dress well.

You've made it big?

(Qin Xun)

Hello, you three went out for a private meal?

(This is bad.)

(Your dad, Lu Cenyang, and Yi Zihe)

(bumped right into each other.)

(Yi Zihe is fanning the flames and talking about you.)

(Lu Cenyang will find out you're from the Yi family.)

What?

(It's okay, leave it to me.)

(You mustn't show up.)

I...

Mr. Lu,

I heard that Mr. Yi was here to stand up for Taylor.

Can you two make it clear?

You don't remember the pain you suffered, do you?

Due to Taylor, Yihua has suffered a heavy blow.

If it gets out that you're picking a quarrel with Qin Xun because of Taylor,

that would be like giving me a huge gift.

How do you want to deal with Qin Xun?

Go ahead, I won't stop you.

Lu Cenyang, you...

What are you laughing at?

You can't always have the upper hand.

Back when my grandmother broke off your engagement,

you looked as pitiable as a stray dog.

If it weren't for Zihe mentioning it,

I would have been too embarrassed to speak up.

When Mingyu was alive,

we did bring it up

about matchmaking Mr. Lu with my daughter.

What's the harm in meeting?

But I was afraid that you guys

would dislike the whole arranged meeting thing and find it awkward.

You're just joking with Mr. Lu.

Why taking it seriously?

I'm not joking.

Mingyu and I

exchanged

the birth details of our children.

and set up a child betrothal.

The fortune teller said

Cenyang was a warm man.

The two are a good match.

When Ms. Hua came to my home to cancel the engagement, it was with your daughter?

Of course.

Why don't you meet?

Maybe you will hit it off now.

(Why didn't I think of it earlier?)

(Among the Yi family's grandchildren, Bu Ran is the only girl.)

Uncle, you really know how to improvise on the spot.

Mr. Lu has a chill about him.

An aura that could freeze things ten meters away.

That's nothing like a warm man.

Did you consult a blind fortune-teller?

You're not a woman.

Why would Cenyang act like a warm man towards you?

Lu Cenyang,

my sister is like a fighting cock. You can meet her.

Good to broaden your horizons.

Mr. Yi,

I don't care why you came here today.

But based on our relationship, I kindly advise you,

this is my friend Mr. Xu's bar.

If you come here to cause trouble again,

I will surely invite Ms. Hua to have coffee in the bar.

You...

It's been so many years since we last met.

Let me treat you to a drink.

Okay.

When the boss treats, I choose the expensive ones.

Let's go.

Auntie, let's go.

Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

Ran.

What's the situation?

How come I was engaged to him in childhood?

It's not something that can be explained in a short time.

After my dad passed away,

I know you have paid your price.

But that does not appease my resentment.

I owe Mr. Lu a debt I can never repay in this lifetime.

If my life can appease your resentment,

feel free to take it.

I don't want to dirty my hands.

Nor do I want to let you off so easily.

I've heard of your strength.

You can surely fulfill Mr. Lu's dying wishes.

Spare me the flattery.

You still remember my father's dying wishes?

I have never forgotten them.

I've been in prison for seven years to avoid it.

It's because I don't want to face my own weakness.

Okay.

Thank you for buying me a drink.

Why are you leaving?

I'm not used to the liquor here.

It's tasteless.

If it weren't for the free drinks I was treated to,

I would have to make you compensate me.

I'm leaving.

No need to see me out.

I actually have an old, fateful connection with Lu Cenyang.

I have no problem dating someone in his twenties.

Who want to marry a man nearly forty?

It's already cancelled, don't worry.

I'm worried that alcohol has fried my dad's brain.

He took advantage of the situation

and talked about us meeting.

I'm terrified that Mr. Lu would say okay.

That would be worse than having my identity revealed.

I would lose all dignity.

Your dad must have calculated he wouldn't agree to meet.

After my dad was released from prison, he was like a hopeless mess.

He could make such shrewd calculations?

Oh my god.

I can't believe I have a matchmaking arrangement with my future boss.

Good morning.

There's a new breakfast place near the office.

Do you want something?

No need, I've made some coffee.

From your voice, it seems you didn't sleep well last night.

Let's talk business.

(When Mr. Liu of Haohan Stars)

(saw that we got the Welfare Center project,)

he came specifically to ask us to design a matrimonial home for his son.

I think he just wants an excuse to side with Pinshang

and to dump Yihua for good.

It seems that the Welfare Center project has indeed dealt a heavy blow to Yihua.

Oh right.

Mr. Liu's son and his daughter-in-law were betrothed from childhood.

(Boss, what's wrong with you?)

Nothing.

No need to make a fuss.

There are lots of cases like this.

(When the young couple had a conflict before,)

the girl went to annul the marriage.

(But the two had no contact after meeting as children.)

(It is said that Mr. Liu's son, for the sake of free love,)

(went to a place Mr. Liu couldn't find.)

(But he ended up choosing his childhood betrothed among the many.)

(We can start the design from the point of the childhood betrothal.)

(It will definitely impress Mr. Liu.)

You go talk to Mr. Liu about this.

No need to tell me.

(Hello?)

(Hello, Boss.)

(Boss, are you still there?)

You have good energy.

You're full of energy after sleeping for such a short time.

I didn't sleep well all night.

My mind is full of the issue of quitting the childhood betrothal with my boss

being known by the whole company.

As a result, Mr. Lu fired me.

He probably doesn't know

you were the marriage partner.

You have to pretend you don't know and keep a good distance from him.

Now that you mention it, yes.

It made me lose sleep all night.

I have a sore back and aching waist.

Do you have time for dinner tonight?

Should have, let's meet after work.

Okay.

What image?

I'll exercise and get ready for the new job.

If you don't warm up, it's easy to get cramps.

Your waist might need some oiling.

Not exercising for a long time has indeed made me a bit out of shape.

What?

I didn't say you had deteriorated.

Stop talking about it.

I've said it, I don't like it.

Can't you just return it for me?

Then why buy it?

Why not treat it well?

Do you know

how embarrassing it is for a product to be returned?

Aren't you being too irresponsible?

It's just a tape measure. I don't like it, so I'll return it.

It's baffling.

Ouch.

Leg... cramp... cramping...

I've got a leg cramp, come help me quickly.
