Water those flowers a bit more.

It's been long since I watered them.

Okay.

The weekend is finally here, so we can have a good meal together at last.

What did you just say?

I said let's have a good meal together.

Wait. What's going on?

I've got inspiration.

What inspiration? Inspiration to cook a good meal for me?

=Episode 10= (May What We Fear Never Happen)

If there's any problem at the factory tomorrow, look for Xu.

Tell him you're my apprentice. He wouldn't snub you.

Understood.

(Mr. Lin, you have an appointment for an ultrasonic checkup of muscles.)

(Please arrive on time for your checkup. If late, you have to re-schedule.)

Mr. Xu.

I'm not quite satisfied with this curvature.

It's not quite what I had in mind. Please take a look.

In that case, let me try to cut it and you can see if it's what you mean.

Okay, thank you, Mr. Xu.

It's okay.

Let me.

♪Ordinary leaves fall down ordinarily♪

♪Does anyone care♪

Still busy, I see.

Mr. Xu, we are in a rush to get the work done, no?

How can you work on this alone?

I can do it. I'm not tired yet, so I can work a bit longer.

Well done. I haven't seen someone at your age

going down to the factory to make samples for a long time.

Well done. You are competent and will have a bright future.

You flatter me.

Alright, I'll be heading back now.

Take care.

Okay.

♪Time is still kind, isn't it♪

♪Happiness means having someone to miss♪

♪How precious is that♪

♪I think even the wind has been happy before♪

♪Listen to the care it brought by♪

♪There's still time. What a beautiful phrase♪

♪But can the years ever stop♪

Tell me, were you making furniture or were you in a fight?

Look at your arm. How can it not be weak?

(HW Cafe) I finished, and Mr. Xu praised my work.

After assessing the cost, it'll go straight to the factory.

You keep talking about Mr. Xu.

Can he give you a massage or rub your hands?

Mr. Xu is the best carpenter in the factory.

People were lining up for him.

If it weren't for my leader, he wouldn't even take such a small order.

Fine. Go be with your leader and your Mr. Xu.

I need to go to the company now. We'll talk after work.

Wait. You stayed up all night.

Why are you still going to the company?

I'm not sleepy. They are waiting for me for a meeting.

Talk to you later.

All right.

Bye, be careful on the road.

Here, here, and this side too.

Our production here is all integrated with digital control.

All producing the table you designed.

Son, are you happy?

I am. It's all thanks to your help.

Oh, not at all! You have a promising future.

Alright, you take a look around here.

I'm going over there to check on them.

Alright, go ahead.

Okay.

- Go ahead. - Later.

- Lin Tuo? Where's Lin Tuo? - Lin Tuo?

The pantry.

Leader, you were looking for me?

They are out.

Finished products?

Of course. What are you waiting for? Hurry to the factory and take a look.

I'll go with you.

Xu, your craftsmanship is truly commendable.

It's made with meticulous precision and keen attention to detail.

Wei, I really can't take all the credit for this.

This kid really has a knack for this.

Look at the sample. It's made perfectly straight and even.

You can tell at a glance that it's the work of a trained apprentice.

His grandpa was a carpenter.

This isn't something learned in school.

One look and you can tell that his potential

comes from making things in workshops.

No wonder, Wei.

Congratulations, you've got yourself another excellent young carpenter.

Right, no problems with the finished products, I hope?

No problems, better than I expected.

Mr. Xu is the best we have here.

Xu, deliver the first batch to Pengyu,

and Ji Jia will take the second batch.

We'll need to clear some space over there.

Alright, I'll go make arrangements.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Xu.

I never went to university. I started working in the factory when I was 17.

Back then in my hometown,

my master used to make square tables. Everything is integrated

with digital control now,

but back then, it was particularly demanding of skill. Purely handcrafted.

If you didn't apply even force by hand, a board would be ruined.

If a board was wasted, we would get beaten.

Couldn't have meals that day.

Later on, my master told me that he was getting old.

But the craft of square tables had to be passed down.

Back then, I really didn't want to stay in my hometown.

I felt quite capable myself.

I want to try my luck, and fight for my dreams.

To do something big, to become a great designer and make money.

I didn't want to stay there.

Every day I couldn't even get enough to eat.

So I borrowed 2,000 and went to Shenzhen.

I joined a furniture factory.

Did you become a designer?

I wish. No, I was a salesperson.

Every day, I'd carry a bag and sell furniture.

For every deal, I got a 1% commission.

For that 1%, I had to drink heavily.

A bottle of liquor with each meal, until my stomach bled.

Later, I finally closed a big deal.

A commission of 60,000 yuan.

But my boss wouldn't pay up.

So I smashed his office and was detained for five days because of fighting.

Thinking about it now, all those years were wasted.

Afterward, I took the money I had saved and went to study design.

One must learn.

Otherwise, I would have been a nobody, a drink-pourer.

The past was really too harsh.

That's why I want to have something sweet every day now.

When we founded Ji Jia, there were only three of us.

We worked from Shenzhen to Guangzhou and then to Chongqing.

We made money, but almost lost our crafts.

Seeing you reminds me of the time

when I wholeheartedly wanted to be a designer.

When I was earnestly making things in the factory.

The original aspiration can't be retained anymore.

Now I always think of my master.

The old man passed away in the workshop.

He was 76, passed away holding a square table.

I let my master down.

I can no longer make the square table.

Leader, let me treat you to HW Coffee.

Luxurious afternoon tea, as much and as sweet as you like.

I'll take your word for it. Let's go.

How is it?

The lighting is good. Let's shoot once he's here.

This must be the youngest and cutest designer poster of Ji Jia.

Quick, take a few more.

Okay.

Good, look here.

Very good. Lift your head a bit higher.

Not bad at all. Come on, let's continue.

♪Every day, every moment feels like something new♪

(Lin Tuo)

You look so good.

You look like a movie star.

This is my boyfriend.

Keep it down.

I'm embarrassed.

Hanging this up is for others to see, isn't it?

Look at the product.

Oh, I'll go check out my little table.

It looks really nice, but isn't it a bit small?

Small?

A little.

Just wait.

How is it?

Not bad, this is a Transformer.

There's even a demonstration video.

♪I wanna know what's on your mind♪

♪Cause I think of you and I♪

♪I'm wondering all night♪

♪Oh how the time flies♪

♪You're my melatonin♪

Well done, Lin Tuo.

What's wrong? What happened?

Would you be like this every time you have a new product?

I'm happy, you know?

Verbal praise isn't enough.

I need to prove it with some action.

I'll buy four sets.

Why would you buy so many?

One set for our house, one for yours.

One set for He Xindi's place, and another set for the store.

Are you that rich now?

I'm quite rich now. I'm going to buy them right away.

Wait for me, the boss is going to spend some money.

You just wait for me.

(Enjoy a cup of coffee here)

Hello, everyone.

Today, I will recommend a dining table to everyone.

This isn't something I sell in my livestream,

but I strongly recommend it.

This is not an advertisement. Please rest assured.

Let me show you this dining table. It opens like this.

Is she promoting the table on her own initiative?

It transforms from a small table into a big one.

See? One table, two people, three meals, four seasons.

This is the warmth of returning home that is missing nowadays, friends.

She's really good at boasting.

In this case, give her a microphone in a salesroom,

and selling 100 sets wouldn't be a problem.

Is she getting a commission?

What commission?

When I bought it, there was only a staff discount of 15% off.

You bought it?

Yeah.

As the designer, doesn't Lin Tuo get one for free?

No.

Why is Ji Jia so stingy?

So, Mr. Chen, do you want to buy one?

Didn't you give it to us?

Right, then why not buy another set for your parents?

Isn't your family relationship a bit tense now?

Or do you really want to cut all ties with them?

No, I won't.

Our family has such a big business, and I am the only child.

If I sever ties, who will inherit it?

Exactly, so hurry up and buy a set.

It might make your parents happy and fix your relationship.

It makes sense.

Yes, indeed.

It's not expensive either, so I can buy it.

Alright, I'll go buy it in a bit.

Help me ask her for leave, or she'll deduct my pay again.

No problem, hurry up and go.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Chen.

It's at the Ji Jia's store. You have to go get one.

Surprise your beloved home with a beloved dining table.

And have a meal with your loved ones.

Doctor,

(Rheumatology Specialist, Dr. Zhang Yucheng) my condition is getting worse.

My right-hand fingers are already inflexible.

My arm is not as strong as it used to be.

Sometimes I can't lift it.

Its height is limited.

For now, it's just the right hand and arm, right?

Right, my left hand and legs are not much affected.

I'm afraid that there might be an issue with the neurons.

You can go to the neurology department and look for Director Zhou Fumeng.

He is an authority in this field.

Neurology department.

Lift your arm up.

Okay, put some strength into it. It's weak on this side.

Some strength here.

Good, now touch the tip of your nose, back and forth.

Okay, relax.

Alright, stand up and walk a bit.

Good, turn around.

Walk on your tiptoes, come on.

Try walking with your heels, like this.

Can't lift your right foot?

A little.

Alright.

It's been several months. Why didn't you come earlier?

I didn't think it was serious before.

I thought I spent too much time painting, and hurt my wrist.

Plus, I've always been playing soccer all along.

I often have leg injuries as well.

You young people

are so neglectful of your health.

What do you do?

Furniture designer.

Are you exposed to any special substances?

Heavy metals like lead and mercury?

No, I haven't.

In that case, you need to be hospitalized for further examination.

Do I have to be hospitalized now?

Doctor, what exactly is wrong with me?

It's hard to say right now.

The main purpose of hospitalization

is to investigate the cause of your symptoms.

Only by identifying the cause can an accurate diagnosis

and appropriate treatment be possible.

Right away?

Do you want to delay it further?

This is the hospital admission notice.

Wait for a phone call within three days to process the admission.

You'll probably need to stay for about a week.

Does your family know about your condition?

No, they don't.

Alright. Get hospitalized for the examination first.

Try not to be too nervous about it.

Maintain a positive mindset, okay?

Okay, then I'll take a leave.

One week off?

What are you up to?

I need to go back home.

You've just made some progress, and now you're asking for a leave?

No, there's something at home.

Personal matters, and I must go back.

Make sure to hand over the Pengyu project well.

I'll approve your annual leave.

But it's only three days since you've been on the job less than a year.

So take another two days.

Okay, thank you, Leader. I'll come back as soon as I'm done.

(Open For Business)

Does it take one week to be a best man?

My classmate has been abroad.

He's come back for his wedding and will stay for just a week.

So we thought we'd hang out together.

Who knows when we'll meet again?

Which classmate is it?

Xu Tianhai. You haven't met him. He's been studying abroad.

Freshly baked.

How about I go with you?

I can also visit Grandpa while I'm there.

He's getting married on Wednesday.

The shop is busy, so you should stay.

Alright.

I'll grab the broom.

(HW Cafe)

Why are you using hands? Put it here.

Don't get hurt. Leave it there.

Have you been too tired lately?

Maybe I didn't rest well.

I won't be staying home this time.

If my parents knew, I'd have to stay home.

Then I couldn't hang out with them.

I'll just go quietly without telling my grandfather.

I'm afraid I won't have time to visit him and he'd have to wait.

So where will you stay?

At Xu's place, and then we'll go have fun at an Airbnb.

I'll come straight back.

Really?

Or what? Why would I lie to you?

Don't tell Grandpa.

Otherwise, I won't be able to explain it.

I know. I'm not stupid.

How much do you plan to give him?

Oh, the gift money.

Right.

Two thousand.

Two thousand would be fine.

Why don't you ask how much they are all giving?

Don't give too little or too much. It's a delicate matter.

Okay.

I'll take out the trash.

Que.

Finish work early today, okay?

Okay, what's up?

I've been too busy recently to spend time with you.

Let's go on a date today.

Have a meal, go shopping, watch a movie, and buy you some new clothes.

Sounds good.

Didn't you say a couple of days ago that you wanted to sing karaoke?

Let's go tonight then.

Why not invite those two as well?

Okay, let's invite them along.

I'll take out the trash.

♪They always ask me♪

♪About what I love♪

This is my mouth.

What are you drinking today? It's all on me.

Red, white, beer, foreign drinks. Drink whatever you like.

I'm not drinking today.

What's going on?

Why come to the karaoke bar and not drink alcohol? Watermelon juice?

No, I'm leaving early in the morning.

So what? A few bottles won't hurt.

Besides, you're not the one getting married.

My stomach hurts. I'm really not drinking.

Your stomach hurts, and my heart hurts. Have a drink to ease it, will you?

That's disgusting. You heard him.

If you make him drink today, I'll knock you down.

Does your stomach hurt? I'll go buy you some medicine.

It's okay. I'll be fine.

Alright, don't force him.

Chen Guangpu, I want the special Little Bear mix.

No way, too expensive. Let's have beer.

Agreed, one bottle of Little Bear each.

Let's go, let's go.

I want to drink now. Buy it now.

- Hurry. - Fruit-flavored tea?

Guangpu.

I'm going home tomorrow. Please take good care of Que for me.

You're going back to be the best man, not the groom.

Aren't you coming back?

I am, but I'm leaving for a week.

Is there something going on?

What?

You've been acting strange all day.

You're not drinking, like a wilted cucumber.

Is something up? Did Gao Xinyao come back?

Are you crazy? That's been over for so long.

Anyway, suddenly going home for a week is not normal.

Is there something up?

If there is something,

you'll be the first to know.

Of course. Let's go.

(D2 Admission and Discharge Office)

Hi, I'd like to check in for hospitalization.

(Inpatient Department: Floors 5-16 Please take the C-D area elevator)

(I've arrived. Don't worry, I'll call you later.)

(Alright, have fun!)

(Patient Name: Lin Tuo)

(Mom, what are you doing?)

(My dear old baby)

Grandpa, what are you doing?

I'm fine, just missing you, that's all.

(HW Cafe)

(Have a meal with your beloved at home Enjoy a cup of coffee here)

Senior, what are you doing here?

I was just nearby for a meeting, so I came over for a piece of cake.

There's a new product. I'll let you try it.

Take your time.

Let me tell you, the dining tables designed by Lin Tuo are selling great.

The big boss even asked about it today.

Really?

Of course.

Now even the big boss knows Lin Tuo?

There's such an outstanding young designer in the company.

It would be hard for the big boss to not know.

So, has he officially become a designer now?

I didn't have the nerve to ask him before.

I was worried it would be sensitive.

Of course, he's a designer now.

Although he is still the design assistant to Director Wei.

But he should soon be able to become a designer.

Alright, that puts my mind at ease.

Lin Tuo's path as a designer is getting smoother.

Your little shop is doing quite well.

When are you getting married?

He's already told you?

Sorry, when I first sent in my resume,

I was afraid the company wouldn't allow office romance, so I didn't tell you.

You could have told me.

The two of us haven't even discussed marriage yet.

Anyway, there's no hurry. We'll strive for a few more years.

Sorry for taking up your time. I'll get you a cake.

It's okay.

Please, have a seat.

- Chen Guangpu, hurry up. - Coming.

- I told you to come early. - Walking up the stairs is tiring.

Senior? What are you doing here?

Why didn't you give me a heads-up?

I almost couldn't make it today.

I was in the area.

Wake up, He Xindi. He came to see me.

Sorry about that, Senior.

She's like this when she sees an exceptional young man.

Chen Guangpu, really?

I'm talking to him. Mind your own business.

Then let me kindly remind you that you're not wearing makeup today.

No, Senior, don't look at me. This is not the real me right now.

Just give me ten minutes and I'll be right out. Wait.

My apologies. Senior. Please sit.

Please roll up your sleeve a bit.

Okay.

Let's proceed with a checkup.

Alright, relax.

Push against my hand.

This finger, push against my hand. Good, that's it.

Now we'll do the electric test.

Alright, we've completed the nerve conduction test.

Okay, let's continue.

Que.

Why is there such a big echo? Where you are?

They're inside drinking, and it's noisy.

I'm in the stairwell.

Drink less. Don't be hungover tomorrow.

I know. I won't drink. I'm going to sleep soon.

I must get up at five tomorrow.

Isn't the wedding in the afternoon?

I mean the morning ceremony, the ritual at the bride's home.

Are there any pretty bridesmaids?

Don't worry, not a single one.

Moreover, they all have boyfriends. None are single.

You've asked about it, huh?

Why would I ask about that? They told me.

I don't know any of them.

I can't talk now. They're calling me.

Okay, go ahead.

Rest early. Love you.

What are you doing. Smoking?

No, I was on the phone. I don't smoke.

You have tests tomorrow. Hurry back to the ward.

(Chongqing Baihui Hospital Outpatient Department)

Is your family in Chongqing?

No, they're not. If there's anything, you can tell me directly. It's fine.

Really, it's okay.

Then I'll tell you directly. From the current examination results,

your diagnosis might be Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

This disease often starts with muscle weakness and atrophy.

It gradually spreads to other areas.

It is popularly known as 'ALS'.

But if we are considering this possibility,

we'll further confirm whether it is genuine or not.

The cause of genuine ALS cannot be found.

False ALS is due to other reasons,

including tumors, endocrine, or immune causes.

So, there are still some results,

especially some regarding tumors that haven't come back yet.

We need to wait a bit longer.

But overall, you need to be mentally prepared.

Son.

Could I trouble you? You see, I want to take a taxi.

I've been trying to hail one for ages, but no luck.

Can you help me call one?

Alright.

Thank you.

Where to?

Xingfu Sanli Community, North Gate. The inexpensive type.

Alright.

(Chongqing Baihui Hospital EMG Report)

Son, you're not suffering from ALS, are you?

Possibly.

You're so young. That shouldn't be the case.

Is it confirmed?

The doctor said more tests are needed to rule out

the possibility of a tumor.

Well, it's not yet confirmed, right?

Diagnosing this disease is quite troublesome.

I've seen a few misdiagnosed cases.

Among them, there were actually cases of tumors.

What if it turns out to be a tumor?

Nowadays, the medical care is so advanced.

Tumors can be treated, so don't frighten yourself.

But what if it is confirmed?

Even then, it's not a problem.

Look at me. I've been diagnosed with this illness for over a year.

I can walk and do everything else without any issues now.

You asked for Director Zhou, right?

I was also diagnosed by Director Zhou.

Director Zhou is an authoritative expert in this field.

As you can see, except for the fact that I can't move this hand,

walking and such is not a problem.

This illness is mainly about one's mindset.

With a good mindset, you're halfway to recovery.

Let's add each other on WeChat.

Add me on WeChat. My name is Yang Qiuguo.

Everyone calls me Uncle Guo.

Son, it really doesn't matter even if it is confirmed.

If there's anything you don't know, just message me on WeChat.

I've learned everything. Long illness makes a good doctor.

It's nothing.
