Are your hands itching?

I told you these shoes were very expensive.

Are these shoes for you to doodle on?

Stretch out your hand.

I'll teach you a lesson.

Quick, give me your hand.

Xinyu, go back to the classroom and wait for me.

- I'll be there soon. - Spread your hand.

Quick.

What's the matter with you?

Give me your hand.

Stretch out your hand.

Spread your hand. Quick.

Ms. Bu.

Sorry, I accidentally hurt you.

This child is disobedient.

My shoes have been drawn on like this.

I'm teaching him a lesson.

The watercolor pen marks should be washable.

I've read about it online.

Let's add each other on WeChat.

Okay.

Thank you, Ms. Bu.

I'll send it to you later.

Okay.

Thank you, Ms. Bu. Let's go.

(Chanel sneakers,11,999 yuan)

What's wrong?

Any findings?

The TA's salary at the orphanage isn't high.

But she is wearing a pair of sneakers that cost over 10,000 yuan.

I've dealt with this female TA before.

She's usually very frugal

and is reluctant to buy expensive things.

The TA is naive.

She is most likely to be deceived by Yi Zihe.

Before I expose Yi Zihe as a womanizer,

please keep an eye on her.

Mr. Zhang always refused to meet us.

(Mr. Li)

This girl is pretty good.

Mr. Wang will surely like her.

(I miss you. See you at the usual place.)

Mr. Qin,

I've noticed that you have been following me for a while.

Let me tell you,

I already have a boyfriend.

Your boyfriend is Yi Zihe, right?

I saw you were unable to reach him just now.

He's very busy.

Busy with what?

Busy ditching you to have fun?

Nonsense!

Zihe won't do that.

Don't be anxious.

(I've been waiting for you for ages.)

(You haven't visited me for such a long time.)

(I've missed you so much.)

But here I am, aren't I?

That clingy woman is so annoying.

I bought her a pair of sneakers

and she thinks I'm her entire world.

(She messages me whenever she's free.)

I didn't reply to her.

Then she blamed me for being too busy and not taking care of my health.

It's none of her business.

(That woman hasn't seen much of the world.)

How about it?

Now do you believe what I said?

How could that be?

Let's go.

Mr. Wang has been waiting for a long time.

Go.

I know you.

Don't bring trouble Mr. Yi.

Yi Zihe didn't book the place exclusively.

Why can he enter but not me?

What's going on?

Mr. Yi.

If you're planning to sneak a photo,

my bodyguard isn't a pushover.

You...

I won't fall for the same trick again.

Keep an eye on her

until she leaves.

Okay, Mr. Yi.

Okay, Mr. Yi.

Let's go.

I can walk by myself.

Hurry up. Go.

Move quickly.

I really can walk.

Could you please not be so nervous?

Hurry up.

I'll go right away.

Why are you here?

I found Yi Zihe

was in a relationship with the female TA from the orphanage.

They caught me when I was following them.

Yi Zihe is also here.

It seems he has made a move on the client I had an appointment with.

No wonder you showed up here.

Seize the opportunity and slip away.

With so many people here, how can we slip away?

I've called the police.

It's not too late for you to run away.

Let's go.

You're injured.

It's nothing.

Yi Zihe has got a step ahead of us.

We need to hurry.

Let's go to the hospital first.

The matter at hand is urgent.

You go back first. Let's go.

Okay.

Come on, cheers.

Mr. Lu, Ms. Yao,

Mr. Yi arrived earlier than you.

He is very straightforward.

He bought my goods at a higher price.

Mr. Wang,

you promised to negotiate with us first.

It doesn't matter

to whom I sell the goods.

Mr. Yi already paid in full.

I think you'd better go to someone else.

Mr. Wang,

my bodyguard was negligent,

allowing uninvited guests to spoil the mood.

Let's go somewhere else.

Alright.

It's all at your disposal.

Okay.

You lost this time.

Do you realize because of the minutes you delayed,

Mr. Wang, whom I struggled to get in contact with,

was intercepted by Yi Zihe?

You did it on purpose, right?

I've figured out who sold the drawings.

I'll find a way to make her come forward.

As long as the public knows it was Yihua playing dirty,

we still have a chance to turn things around.

Yi Zihe has discovered you.

You don't stand a chance.

Go back and rest.

I had Qin Xun keep an eye on the witness.

We still have a chance.

No need for you to make matters worse.

I'll take you to the hospital first.

Where are you?

I'll come over right away.

Where is the female TA?

Before you came,

Yi Zihe gave her

a large sum of break-up fee.

Minde made a strong comeback.

To embarrass the Yi family,

I thought there would be a very big move.

But it turned out that he just went for a drink with Mr. Liu.

Minde has never been one to do anything ruthless.

After seven years of influence,

he just played the drunkard to disgust us

and was truly useless against outsiders.

You are a son who defies me in everything.

Back then, you insisted on marrying

this woman of no value to the Yi family.

You even went so far as to give up on the Yi family

to help Lu Mingyu.

Seven years have passed,

and now you're helping outsiders undermine Yihua.

You're truly incorrigible!

Now leave with nothing but yourself.

Let's go.

It's still not too late to sacrifice Bu Ran.

As long as it's revealed that she's from the Yi family,

the tables could turn in no time.

I wanted to catch you before you leave

to say thank you.

Thanks for protecting me.

You were harsh with me because of Mr. Liu.

I understand it all now.

I won't be a burden to you anymore.

I promise.

You'd better keep your word.

Or I'll drive you out from next door.

I will do it.

How is your hand?

Wish you recover soon.

Same here.

We haven't lost yet, have we?

What nonsense are you talking about?

You're not awake yet? I'm leaving.

Wait a second.

For you.

Keep it up!

(No way.)

Dad.

Ran,

you should be at work at this hour.

You have time to call me.

Is it because the plan didn't go well?

Yi Zihe is one step ahead of me.

I lost my key witness to the leak of the drawings.

And still, no one is willing to provide the building materials.

I want to give Mr. Lu a helping hand.

Can you give me some advice?

Based on my understanding of Lu Cenyang,

he must have a backup plan.

You've already done what you should.

Now it's better to just watch quietly.

Dad,

what I need now is a way to turn things around.

Maybe I can only...

You know, it's not that there is no way.

But you need to be calm enough

to come up with a story for your grandma

that Lu Cenyang is full of schemes.

Grandma,

you're still in the mood to take photos?

The last time I wanted to see you,

you refused.

Why are you coming to me today?

Yi Zihe has fallen for Lu Cenyang's scheme.

Grandma, think carefully about it.

How did Lu Cenyang use Taylor to plot

against Uncle and the others?

Can he be defeated

so easily?

Last night,

Mr. Wang, whom Lu Cenyang desperately curried favor with,

was intercepted by Zihe.

He's doomed to lose.

Are you here to tell me it was all intentional?

Exactly.

The renovation of the orphanage is using my proposal.

I chose to use second-hand building materials

because the budget for the orphanage renovation is tight.

But Lu Cenyang deliberately switched

to the expensive eco-friendly building materials.

Everything is the most expensive and the most eco-friendly.

He just figured Yihua would make a move

so that Yihua and the suppliers

would take in the most expensive goods.

But he wanted to use this tactic

to make you feel financially strained due to stockpiling.

It's really ridiculous.

Yihua has so many residential projects

geared for high-end fine decoration in the future.

How could we not be able to make use of them?

Yihua uses the top-tier fine decoration,

so the price will inevitably rise.

At this time,

Lu Cenyang will utilize Pinshang's design advantages

to engage in a price war with Yihua in the future housing projects

with high cost-performance ratio

and defeat Yihua with their original pricing advantage.

This is his plan.

I never place my bets on only one possibility.

If your information is incorrect,

think about the consequences for yourself.

If Uncle and Zihe

truly possess exceptional abilities,

you would not have allowed me

to stay by Lu Cenyang's side after I rejected you.

Grandma,

Lu Cenyang is doing all this

to confuse our Yi family

so that Zihe will foolishly

take in the goods

from the suppliers.

Once he has really purchased them one by one,

Lu Cenyang will take action.

It will be too late for us to regret it.

It's not yet too late to make Zihe

pull back from the brink.

What's wrong, Grandma?

One's heartbeat quickens when they are nervous.

I came here by bike.

I want to know

how you

gained Lu Cenyang's trust in such a short time.

As soon as there was news

online that the drawings were leaked by a designer,

people in the company seriously

conducted an investigation on me.

But, Grandma, have you heard

the news of my dismissal?

Moreover,

Zihe's bodyguard gave me a hard time.

Lu Cenyang got injured trying to protect me.

If all these still do not clarify the issue,

Grandma, please think about it.

If Lu Cenyang wants to thoroughly investigate

the identity of Yi Zihe's subordinates,

isn't that a matter of minutes?

Why didn't he call the police?

Because he doesn't want to disrupt the plan.

Lu Cenyang has done a lot for you.

A young and promising boss doing all these for you.

You must be moved.

When a woman is moved,

she tends to be emotionally driven.

So that's why you came to me and said so much.

You want me to interrupt Zihe and their actions.

I wanted to be more cautious.

But you came to me.

It seems Lu Cenyang has run out of tricks

and has no power to fight back.

No, Grandma.

Well,

instead of worrying about Lu Cenyang and Pinshang,

you might as well be concerned about your parents.

I've driven them out of the Yi family.

I don't know where they are wandering now.

Find them

and give them some money.

Mom, where have you and Dad moved to?

Okay, I'll go to see you now.

Ms. Hua, shall we back to the company?

No.

(Lu Cenyang)

(Bu Ran fancied herself clever and has done you in.)

(Are you still going to be soft-hearted?)

(Bu Ran was self-sentimental and caused you harm. Are you still soft-hearted?)

(I will think about this.)

(Follow Bu Ran)

(and find the whereabouts of Yi Minde.)

Uncle Li, you've heard everything.

Do you think I should still be soft-hearted?

How did Bu Ran know

your scheme so clearly?

Could it be that she really installed listening devices?

It doesn't matter.

Fortunately, Ms. Hua doesn't believe her.

That's good.

This time,

let Yihua taste the pain the Lu family once endured.

If she passes the message, will Ms. Hua believe it?

This time, Yihua

has already stepped one foot into my trap.

If Ms. Hua believes what Kerry says

and asks Yi Zihe to stop,

Yihua is lucky to survive this time.

(I chose second-hand materials.)

(Lu Cenyang deliberately switched)

(to the expensive eco-friendly building materials.)

(So that Yihua and the suppliers)

(would take in the most expensive goods.)

Speak.

Ms. Hua,

I heard Mr. Lu and the gardener of their company

discussing their next move.

It seems his current passivity is all a pretense.

Mr. Lu will soon take his next step.

You must be careful.

Gardener? Pretense?

Is your information accurate?

Mr. Lu has an unusual relationship with this gardener.

I will send you some photos of the gardener.

Please take a look and see if you recognize this person.

(Isn't this Mr. Li,)

(Lu Mingyu's most trusted assistant?)

(There has been no news from him.)

(So he's been working as a counsellor for Lu Cenyang.)

What did that gardener say?

He said

they would let you taste

the pain the Lu family once endured.

Ms. Sun,

let's go back to the company now.

Okay.

Fortunately, I saved some money.

I've made all the necessary purchases.

It's enough for us to settle down here.

From now on,

you might

have to live through some tough times here with me.

Why would we live through tough times?

Do you think I liked living in a villa?

This place is so nice.

Ran will help us improve it further later.

It will become more and more enviable the longer we live here.

The sound insulation here is not good.

Keep your voices down when you talk about me next time.

It can be heard in the courtyard.

Do we need to whisper when we talk about you?

Come on, just in time to give your dad a hand.

Okay.

What happened to your hand?

It's nothing, just got a bit burned.

She's always so careless.

Come over here and help me move the shelf.

Be careful.

Turn the corner.

You didn't tell me my grandma kicked you out.

Are you afraid I would cry?

Not at all.

You can escape

from the Yi family, a place like a cage.

I'm too happy to feel anything else.

Your dad

is worried about affecting your work.

As if I have anything left to be affected.

Dad,

I went to see my grandma.

But I didn't handle it well.

I actually made things worse.

I might even lose my job.

Mr. Lu,

after arriving at the location, go through the tea garden.

Then you'll reach Yi Minde's home.

My daughter,

regardless,

we still think very highly of you.

Leave no regrets.

Look on the bright side.

How could there be no regrets?

It's ending just as it was beginning.

I really want to contribute to Pinshang.

I also really want to build a dreamed house

for the children in the orphanage.

But now

it's all ruined because of me.

I...

(Director Chen)

Hello.

Please have some tea.

Director,

as soon as I heard Mr. Lu was concerned about building materials,

I came over immediately.

Yihua sincerely wants to help

renovate the orphanage.

To my knowledge,

Yihua has nearly invested all the cash flow

in purchasing building materials.

In order to show your charitable spirit,

you have been truly generous.

It's admirable indeed.

There have always been many rumors about Yihua.

Mr. Lu, you needn't take them seriously.

I can't do this for years at my age.

I want to do more good things

while I can.

Of course, I am willing to give you the opportunity.

You may kindly sponsor the building materials,

but you must not interfere with the construction.

If in the future,

Yihua wishes to advertise for itself

since it has provided new eco-friendly building materials

in the renovation of the orphanage,

you are free to do it.

Mr. Lu, you really have a careful scheme.

However we advertise,

it ultimately promotes Pinshang.

I'm too old to see everything clearly.

I don't like making "wedding dresses" for others.

Yihua provides building materials.

Naturally, supervision must be exercised.

Director,

the quality control

and schedule of the project can be ensured by our supervision.

Sorry, Ms. Hua.

The renovation has been authorized to Mr. Lu.

It's up to him to decide.

Mr. Lu,

the materials will be delivered to you.

If you don't want them and delay the start of work,

when the Charity Federation asks about it,

it will be a shame for you.

Mr. Yi

toyed with a TA at the Welfare Center.

I guess the Charity Federation won't mind

that we're just starting a few days late.

Young people date and break up on good terms.

She got a decent break-up fee.

What's there to fuss about?

It was my employee who stole the design

and framed the designer.

The facts are clear.

Even if I get fired because of this,

I must give the designer and Pinshang justice.

Director,

if there's any misunderstanding,

I am willing to fully cooperate with Mr. Lu

to express my apologies.

Mr. Lu, let's do as you wish.

Everything prioritizes starting on time.

Thank you for your cooperation, Ms. Hua.

(My grandma has come to the Welfare Center.)

(It seems...)

Why aren't you going in?

Did Yihua really win?

I'm sorry.

I really wanted to help do something.

I didn't listen to you.

I was presumptuous and made things worse.

I fancied myself clever and have harmed you.

I didn't expect things to come

to an uncontrollable point.

I'm too ashamed to see you.

Are you playing the distressed strategy with me?

I'm not.

I truly wanted to help.

I know whatever I say is useless.

However you punish me is fine.

Even if you have to fire me,

I accept it.

You said it.

As you wish.

Well, why are you crying?

I promised to perform magic for the children

and to build them a new home.

I can't do it now.

Your eyes are like a sprinkler truck.

Have you never cried before?

Every time I'm especially unlucky,

you get to see my awkward look.

I didn't come to show concern for you.

The director of the orphanage called me,

saying that Hua Lan from Yihua

was willing to provide building materials.

We met her at the orphanage.

Now, everything has been settled.

Really?

You're not just saying that to comfort me, are you?

Everything I said just now counts.

If you're truly in a difficult position,

don't worry about my face.

Put all the blame on me.

I'll take on even the biggest blame.

With that slender frame of yours, what blame can you take?

You have so little faith in my crisis management skills?

Believe it or not, I'll punish you to sweep the company floors for a year.

Do you mean

that I can continue to stay in the company?

When did I ever say I would fire you?
