[Best Choice Ever]

[Episode 18]

Grandma.

Do you still feel unwell?

Grandma.

Grandma, are you okay?

You scared me.

Doctor.

How is my grandma?

She experienced heart failure.

She needs to maintain a good lifestyle

and rise and rest early.

Try to avoid any form of shock.

I don't think there is

any serious problem this time.

She should be fine

after a few days of observation.

Thank you.

Grandma, it's all my fault.

I shouldn't have kept you up

late in the night with our chat yesterday.

Being old

is the same as having an old house.

It's normal to experience

small problems.

Don't blame yourself.

Who can get the test report from me?

Let me do it.

I'll go get the report.

Grandma,

take a rest.

I'll stay with you.

Zhiming,

let me ask you something.

Was Ms. Zhang

from Botticelli

telling the truth?

Yes.

I am working with her.

To be honest,

I came back this time

for the sake of Xing'an Li too.

What if I

disapprove of it?

I'll change the plan

until you're satisfied.

What if I'm never satisfied?

Grandma,

I think I can do it the best.

You won't be dissatisfied.

But

if I have to trade your health

for everything else,

I'll give up.

Because it's not worth it.

How did you

come to that conclusion?

When it comes to interests,

you become a pro mathematician.

Because I was really afraid just now.

I don't want to

experience this feeling again.

So take a good rest.

Nothing else matters.

I seem to smell

something.

I've never smelled it before.

What smell?

Warmth and kindness.

Mom. Dad.

This way to the second floor.

Dad.

Chenghuan.

How is Grandma?

She's fine.

She's awake now.

The doctor said

it was heart failure,

a basic disease.

She'll be fine after some rest.

That's good.

Let me take you upstairs.

Okay.

Ask her about her foot.

Why don't you ask?

Just ask.

Okay.

Huan.

Your mum asked me to ask you

about your foot.

It's fine. I just sprained my ankle.

You sprained it?

Dad, you must not have brought anything

since you came here in a hurry.

I'll go buy some fruit.

Huan.

I'll go.

Take Mum and Dad

to see Grandma first.

Here.

Let me help you.

Carry her.

No need.

It's right ahead. We're almost there.

[Today's target]

Grandma.

My parents are here.

Madam.

Mr. Yao.

Madam.

Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

We came in a hurry.

We didn't bring you anything.

I'm fine.

Don't worry.

Have you settled

your house matters?

It's alright.

Pretty good.

Dad,

how is the fridge

I bought you?

The fridge?

Not bad.

I heard that the renovation team

was turned away.

It's not a good idea

for you to stay there like this.

Dad,

let me find you a rental somewhere.

You see, a few days ago,

your mother...

[Communication Board]

Didn't sleep well.

Right?

So,

we haven't figured out

the plan yet.

Who said I didn't sleep well?

Haven't figured it out, you said.

I slept well.

I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

[Communication Board]

Grandma,

I went to buy you some fruit.

-Thank you, Zao.
-Put it over there.

I'll put it here.

Liu.

The demolition is no more,

but we still have to live.

[Communication Board]

The earlier you renovate your house,

the sooner life can get back to normal.

It can't get back to normal, Madam.

Now,

the home is not like home anymore.

My daughter for 30 years

wants to cut ties with me.

My home

is gone.

I can't live anymore.

Who cares about the house?

Just making do is fine.

You can make do.

Can Zao make do?

He has graduated and started working.

But he doesn't even have a bedroom.

Do you want him to sleep on a

foldable bed forever?

Grandma is right.

Zao.

Let's go find

a temporary rental tomorrow.

No need.

I won't move anyway.

After all, you are my family too.

Although I told you

not to rely on others,

[Communication Board]

given the current situation,

people will gossip

if I don't do something.

I have

an old villa.

It's enough for the four of you.

An old villa?

An old villa?

In Shanghai?

[Communication Board]

That's amazing.

Of course.

Madam.

Well...

Grandma.

There's no need.

We don't need it.

Madam.

You've helped us

a lot before.

How can we

trouble you again?

You can't say it that way.

Right?

We should accept help when we need it.

Madam said it herself.

The purpose is

to let the four of us

live together.

[Communication Board]

Then...

Thank you, Madam.

Huan.

Well,

we'll wait for you to move together.

I won't move in.

Chenghuan.

It's been a long time

since you met your mother.

If you don't want to live there,

at least take them there.

The key

is in my drawer at the nursing home.

Lane 1100.

This is the one.

To have a house here...

How impressive.

It must be so expensive.

Is Grandma that rich?

I don't know.

Lane 1100.

That's right.

Number 9 should be inside.

Let me tell you.

This place

used to house Shanghai's celebrities.

Did your father leave one for you?

Nonsense.

If my father left me such a house,

I wouldn't be working as a driver.

Gosh.

This...

Madam is so generous.

I would never have thought

that we could own

such a house.

This house belongs to Grandma,

not us.

Dad.

If you decide

to move in,

I'll ask the renovation team

to work on our house immediately.

Okay.

That's good.

What's good

about that?

We have such a big house here,

why bother renovating that house?

Isn't that a waste of money?

Huan already said it.

Madam is only lending it to us.

She's helping us overcome the difficulties.

Yes, Mom.

It's temporary.

We're only staying here for a while.

I know.

Only you are smart.

Only I don't know.

Don't just stand here.

Let's go in and have a look.

Okay, let's go.

Go in.

Dad, I'm not going.

You guys go in.

Grandma is still in the hospital.

I have to go back to accompany her.

Go to the hospital now.

Huan.

If you need anything

or feel like eating anything,

remember to call me.

Got it, Dad.

Zao, let's go.

Tell you if she needs anything?

It would be nice if she did.

Zao.

Go check the kitchen

and see if it needs anything else.

We'll take what we need from our house.

Okay.

Come on.

Honey.

Come, sit down.

Why are you standing here?

Come, sit down.

She ignores me easily,

but I just can't ignore her.

She's my daughter after all.

Poor thing.

Poor thing.

This is probably

what they call

a familial debt.

Right?

What do you mean by debt?

What do you want me to do?

Look at her with puppy eyes

and ask her to come back?

I'm not asking you to beg.

But I think

whatever we do,

we still need to use

the right methods.

I found that

Huan has lost weight too.

Of course.

You can't eat well

or sleep well

outside.

Yes.

How can anywhere

compare to home?

She has her mother at home.

Honey,

I have a good idea.

Say it. Hurry up.

Let's invite Madam here

for a few meals.

If Madam comes here,

well,

Huan

must follow her.

By then,

after two meals,

she'll be back.

I won't do it.

Not only do I have to beg,

I have to beat around the bush.

You don't have to beg her.

Let me do it.

I'll invite her.

Zhiming,

don't you have anything to ask me?

To be honest,

I'm a little surprised.

But you said before that

you can make

your own decisions.

I know what I'm doing.

Grandma.

I'm back.

Yao Zhiming.

You've had a long day.

Go back and rest.

I'll take over.

So,

how are they?

They're fine.

My mom should be satisfied.

Grandma.

I'll let Chenghuan keep you company.

Don't worry.

I'm here.

Your coat.

Chenghuan.

That old villa

was my wedding house with Zhiming's grandpa.

Many sad things happened there.

I don't want to bring it up.

Don't blame me for hiding it from you.

Grandma,

the house belongs to you.

You have the right to deal with it.

I have no reason to blame you.

But since

my relationship with my mom

needs your house to mediate,

I feel

a little bad.

All right.

I paid you the rent for six months.

Later,

when the renovation is complete,

I'll ask my parents to move out.

Huan.

You're independent.

It is a good quality.

But you always use your strength

to face everything.

Over time,

your strength will become a weakness.

Grandma.

They all say 30 is the age of independence.

First,

I have to be independent.

I hope you can remember

not to act tough in front of your family.

Family

should share

each other's troubles and woes.

There are many times

in life

when one needs to accept help.

Otherwise,

how can people

get close to each other?

Being independent is important,

but if you make yourself

exhausted

and secluded from others,

what's the good about that?

Grandma,

I'll remember your words.

I'll show you

my achievements these days

to lighten up the mood.

Look.

I took this short promo video

for Mao.

Hello, everyone.

I'm an independent jewelry designer,

Mao Yongxin.

Today I'm going to introduce

some new products I'm about to launch.

The first one is very unique

and my personal favorite.

Not bad, right?

This small ball

is made of a special material I used.

It can be recycled.

So I made the color

very brilliant.

It suits the summer season.

The design concept

expresses the idea that,

as women,

we have to play

many different roles in life.

But no matter when

and what difficulties we encounter,

we have to be loyal to ourselves.

You taught me that.

We should live for ourselves.

In exchange,

teach these new things

to me.

I also practiced it myself.

But

what I took

is not as good as yours.

No problem.

However,

Ms. Chen Shuzhen,

you need to sleep now.

It's too late.

I'll teach you tomorrow.

Okay.

You are

learning to make fun of me.

Go to sleep.

The doctor said

you can't stay up late because your heart is weak.

Okay. Come on.

Okay.

Alright.

Go to sleep.

Boss.

I've been wondering.

Madam has suddenly decided

to let the Mai family

live in her house while she's hospitalized.

Do you think she might be

planning her wealth distribution?

Did she mention

about Xing'an Li to you?

Grandma asked me

if I was confident

about handling Xing'an Li.

Of course you are.

Have you shown your loyalty?

Why are you looking at me like that?

You came back

for Xing'an Li, right?

Complete the task quickly,

get promoted, and return to headquarters.

You said it yourself.

Grandma is my only family

in this world.

She's sick and hospitalized.

If all I think about is Xing'an Li,

do you think that's appropriate?

Would I still be considered human?

No.

No, I mean.

I didn't mean that.

I mean...

Grandma hasn't said anything yet.

Don't give up already.

Right?

Take care of Grandma first.

[Jiahui International Hospital]

Butterfly pastry.

It's freshly made.

Grandma.

You look good today.

Mr. Yao, you're here.

Uncle Cui.

[Communication Board]

Chenghuan is doing a livestream

with her friends.

She'll be back in the afternoon.

I'm not looking for her.

I was talking to Cui.

Yes.

I haven't seen Chenghuan

for a while.

I miss her.

Madam,

everything you want is ready.

I'll go back first.

Tell me

if you need anything else.

[Communication Board]

Thank you, Cui.

Grandma.

I've told you many times

not to eat such sweet desserts.

And this crab.

It's a cooling food.

What happened to taking care of your health?

I'm in charge

of my body.

I'm your guardian.

I'm also in charge.

How about this?

You can have either the crab

or the dessert.

Well,

I choose the crabs.

You can only have one.

Yao Zhiming.

One crab

is far from enough.

I don't care.

Okay.

Just one.

I almost forgot.

Zhiming,

I took a look

at the proposal

Ms. Zhang brought me last time.

It wasn't completely nonsensical.

But one of the lines

states that

Xing'an Li

will be under Botticelli's name

as chain management.

It plans to hire a whole new crew.

I can't agree with that.

Do you have a compromise plan?

Grandma, here's the thing.

As an

international hotel group,

they have

their own standards for employees.

I know you care a lot

about your career.

Since young, family changes have made you

not trust in relations,

but the sense of security

that money brings you.

But I have to remind you.

Xing'an Li

is my home.

At my most difficult time,

Cui and the others

helped me survive the days.

All of Xing'an Li's employees

are not outsiders.

Just like you,

they are my family.

I understand.

Grandma, I understand what you mean.

How about this?

For the employees,

I'll try my best

to keep all of them.

Can I trust you?

I promise you.

I'll invite

Mai Chenghuan

to supervise me.

Then you can rest assured.

You've learned well from Chenghuan.

When you get to my age,

you will find it a joy

in life to be surrounded

by people who are genuine to you.

Okay.

One crab.

This crab

is really too small.

Why don't I

eat this one too?

No.

I may not be able to agree to this.

But I promise

I'll fulfill any of your

other conditions.

How about this?

Get me a new cheongsam

so I can look pretty when I'm discharged.

Isn't that good?

No problem.

Okay.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Mao Yongxin, a jewelry designer,

the supervisor of Nuages Jewelry,

and the ex-wife of Song Huaimin,

the popular designer.

This livestream today

is to clarify on

Song Huaimin's slander towards me

and reveal the truth.

Because the truth is usually the opposite.

Since we got married,

he used marriage to threaten me

to let him use my work as his.

And then?

Evidence.

Evidence?

Let's get to the juicy part.

We are all here

for Song Huaimin's gossip anyway.

Do you want to know

how Song Huaimin

manipulates his students

to be his free labor first,

or do you want to know

how he stole

my design drafts?

Just look at the materials.

This is the first video.

How dare she sue me?

I copied her.

I copied her

because I think her work is good enough.

No matter what it takes,

shut her up.

Okay.

Next.

Honey.

I got two new projects.

Help me draw the design draft.

Okay?

When our kids go to school,

I will help you

open your own independent brand in the circle.

The third part.

Don't show the third video.

You wouldn't dare to say that

when the livestream starts.

But I have to show them everything at once

and hammer him to death.

You have too many deets on him.

It's a pity to show it all in one day.

You have to reveal a bit of it

at the same time every day.

It's like

running a drama series.

That's right.

And remember,

Song Huaimin is

a big public figure

with 1.6 million fans.

If he can get the masses

to spam you with 1-star ratings,

he can ask the masses

to make trouble in your livestream chatroom

and make you look bad before you can start.

Go ahead, I'll fight them head-on.

I...

I'm the victim.

Why would they attack me?

No, no.

It's fun to quarrel head-on, yes.

But it will confuse the highlights of the livestream.

Don't forget.

The important thing is to announce your brand.

Make good use of the exposure.

Yes, yes.

But

livestreaming is too hard.

Mao, we're not in a hurry.

Do it again from the beginning to the end.

Okay?

You can do it.

Alright, let me run through it again.

Again.

Here.

Come on.

Come on.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Mao Yongxin, a jewelry designer,

the supervisor of Nuages Jewelry,

and the ex-wife of Song Huaimin,

the popular designer.

Song Huaimin.

You said I would be nothing

if I left you.

[Jewelry designer Mao Yongxin]

Look.

Not only did I

create my own brand,

I also designed

so many accessories.

They are all beautiful

and unique.

Can you do it?

Okay.

[Jewelry designer Mao Yongxin]

If you still want to know

more gossip about Song Huaimin,

come to my livestream tomorrow.

More hot gossips

are waiting

for you.

Chenghuan's friend

is quite interesting.

Zhiming,

teach me

how to send them gifts.

Click on this.

[Jewelry designer Mao Yongxin]

Which one do you want to give?

Let's give them an expensive gift.

Okay.

How about this one?

[Jewelry designer Mao Yongxin]

Not bad.

Hundreds of people tuned in

to your first livestream.

[Livestream stats platform]

It's amazing.

It's not that impressive.

It's her first time.

Hundreds of people is a lot.

Yes.

You're right.

I think it's great.

At least someone placed an order, right?

Really.

Thank you for today.

If it weren't for you two,

I wouldn't have known how to do it.

What should we have for lunch?

My treat.

Hurry up.

Think about it.

I'm good with anything.

Huan can decide.

I'm not eating.

I have to go back and eat with Grandma.

But you have to

treat me to something too.

The latest product of the season.

Let me wear it for a while.

Mai Chenghuan.

Take whatever you like.

Hurry up.

Take them away.

Oh, quit bragging.

You only sold

a few orders during the livestream.

You spent more than you earned.

Your efforts will be in vain this way.

I'm just spending a little bit.

Earnings can be accumulated over time.

I'm leaving.

Zao, do you have time?

If you're free,

eat with Mao.

I'm leaving.

Take care.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

How was the livestream?

Why are you here?

The livestream went well.

You came all the way here

just to

ask me that?

I'd like to ask you

to do me a favor.

This is the place.

Will this shop do?

How about the shop Grandma frequents?

You can ask Grandma then.

Why did you come to me?

Grandma said she would like

whatever I buy.

Then I'm leaving.

Grandma made a decision

that has greatly affected me today.

I want to give her

a cheongsam that she likes.

I know

you know Grandma better than I do.

So I'll listen to you.

Alright.

I'll help

for the sake of your sincerity,

Follow me.

This tailor shop

has been around for decades.

It was opened by an old tailor in Shanghai.

Usually, people in this area

will bring expensive fabric

here for tailoring.

Grandma will like

the custom-made clothes here.

That had better be the case.

If not,

I'll tell Grandma that

you misled me.

Got it, Mr. Yao.

You'll be satisfied.

Uncle Xu.

Uncle Xu.

You're here.

We're here.

Is he your boyfriend?

He's so handsome.

I've made clothes all my life.

I've never seen

someone with such a great

shoulder-to-head proportion.

As your mother said,

such a son-in-law

is perfect.

Uncle Xu.

The one my mother mentioned...

Is not this one.

Hello.

I want to make a custom cheongsam.

I want the best and most expensive fabric.

Here.

Come in and have a look.

You were so picky just now.

You changed so quickly.

Uncle Xu has good taste.

I believe he will do well.

Chenghuan,

the new Chinese style

set

is also suitable for young people nowadays.

It doesn't have to be a cheongsam.

No, Uncle Xu.

I'm not making it for myself this time,

but for my grandma.

I'll give you the measurements later.

Okay.

Let's pick out the fabric first.

Okay.

The quality of the fabric is

according to the price.

Currently, we have satin in stock.

Satin.

Let's go with that.

Just ordinary real silk will do.

Who should I listen to?

Grandma is a practical person.

She always says that

comfortable clothes are the most important.

So the silk is fine.

We'll take the silk.

Okay.

What style do you want?

A flat cut.

Simple, comfortable,

with a smooth outline.

Grandma will like it.

And

this one.

Here are the placket patterns.

Which one would you like?

I know about this one.

Double round placket.

For people with status.

let's go for the rectangular placket.

Okay.

You guys continue.

I'll sort it out.

Okay.

[Cheongsam Selection]

Mr. Yao.

Although Grandma

is usually delicate

and likes to pursue a good quality of life,

she has had a hard life.

She has a temper too.

Mai Chenghuan.

Do we know

the same grandma?

Of course.

My grandma and my grandpa

met each other when they were old.

But before she met my grandpa,

she was single for decades.

One time she was sick and almost died.

She signed the operation papers

for herself

and survived it.

You didn't know that, did you?

Grandma only told me

about that when we

became very close.

That's why the rectangular placket fits her best.

Chenghuan.

Well...

Making clothes is like being a human.

After hearing what you said,

although I've never met

your grandma before,

she must be

a charming

and sophisticated

old madam.

Thank you, Uncle Xu.

I'll tell Grandma

your words later.

It'll make her very happy.

Okay.

Tell me your grandma's

basic information.

Okay.

Grandma is 1.62 meters tall.

Her shoulder width is 37 cm.

37.

Her waist measurement is 75.

75.

Okay, the rest of the measurements

are all here.

Uncle Xu, have a look.

Okay.

Alright.

Why are you looking at me?

Pay the deposit.

No hurry.

Uncle Xu.

Mr. Yao is

very picky.

When you're done

with the cheongsam,

wrap it nicely.

I got it.

It hurts.

I'm not doing anything yet.

No.

Well...

I can do it myself.

Don't move.

Leave it to me.

I can do it.

It hurts.

Are you feeling better?

Much better.

What happened?

Are you allergic to

the earring's material?

No.

I just tried on too many

earrings for the customers.

I kept putting them on and taking them off.

So now my ears are inflamed.

Next time when the traffic is high,

ask my sister

to share the risk.

If your sister hears you say that,

she'll beat you up.

I'm not done yet.

I'll pierce my ears too.

When I'm done,

we'll have 6 usable ears.

No.

I don't want you to pierce your ears.

You should be just the way you are.

It's refreshing this way.

Well,

would you like something to drink?

I'll get it for you.

I'll go by myself.

What was I thinking?

Honey.

I'm late.

I'm leaving.

I'll clean up for you

when I get back at night.

Isn't Mr. Yao's working hours

uncertain?

Why are you going

so early?

Madam is being discharged today.

Have you forgotten?

I have to go to the hospital to pick her up.

Besides, we're staying

in her house right now.

We have to do something to show our appreciation.

Madam is being discharged.

But Huan hasn't come home.

What kind of

father are you?

You don't look anxious at all.

I gave you an idea.

But you didn't listen.

You don't want to bow to your daughter.

Then, think about Madam.

She couldn't help you directly.

So she indirectly

lent you the house to help you and her.

Whether Huan comes back or not,

we have to remember

what Madam has done to help us.

Of course I remember

what she has done for us.

Madam is such a good person.

Do you remember?

When Huan was young, she fell sick.

Without Madam's help,

Huan would not have made

a full recovery.

Not just Huan.

When my dad was sick and paralyzed,

Madam

took good care of him

and kept him in good shape.

He didn't grow a single boil.

That's right.

Then why do you have a problem with her?

They fell in love at such an old age.

When two people

get together at such an old age,

people will talk.

Of course I couldn't stand it.

Forget about me.

Even my dad

wanted to give up.

Now that you mentioned it,

Madam

took on those gossips

all by herself.

I think Madam had

a really hard time.

Yes.

I'm thinking...

What?

Compared to living alone,

she should live with us,

right?

We can take much better care of her.

Since you're picking her up,

why don't you bring her

directly here?

We'll live together.

If she's here, I could even

cook for her

and take care of her.

If Huan knows she's here,

she'll definitely come home.

Yu.

You're so kind.

If Madam and Huan

can come back,

our family

will be reunited.

By then,

we can have dinner together at the table.

As the goddess of the stove,

you can show off your skills.

I'm leaving.

Don't forget.

If Madam really moves in,

cooking will be

such a stressful chore.

Hello?

Dad.

Did you receive the roses?

Yes.

Huan.

You're so thoughtful.

Luckily, you thought of it.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have known

what to give.

Roses suit

Grandma the most.

I'm sure she'll like it.

Huan.

I have good news for you.

Your mother plans to

invite Grandma to live with us at the old villa.

Then we can

live together.

Look.

Grandma has come home.

Shouldn't you think about

moving back home too?

Let me think about it.

Dad, I'll get back to work.

Okay.

Madam.

Mai.

[Today's target]

Hello.

This is...

This is my lawyer.

I was discussing something with him.

[Food, heart, healthy diet]

I won't bother you.

Okay, thank you.

Goodbye.

[Food, heart, healthy diet]

Goodbye.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Mai.

What brings you here?

I heard you were discharged today.

Chenghuan

told me to

give you these roses.

She said roses suit you.

Chenghuan has sharp eyes.

Roses

have thorns.

Just like me.

[Today's target]

Well...

A while back,

you lent us

your house to stay in.

Yu and I

are very grateful.

So when I came here,

Yu asked me

to take you home.

From now on,

we can live together as a family

and take care of each other.

Thank you, I appreciate the gesture.

But I'm used to living alone these years.

My lifestyle is different

from everyone else.

There's no need

for us to live together.

Okay.

I'll listen to you.

Should I

take you to

the nursing home first?

No need.

Zhiming will pick me up later.

Oh, okay.

Mai.

If you want to help,

tonight,

bring Liu and Chengzao

to Xing'an Li.

I ordered a table of dishes

and invited Chenghuan and Zhiming.

Our family

has never eaten together before.

Okay.

We will come tonight.

How about...

I leave first?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. Take care.

Goodbye.

Thank you for visiting me.

Chenghuan.

Thank you for the flowers.

I ordered a table of dishes

in Xing'an Li tonight,

including your favorite crab roe buns.

You must come.

Sure.

No problem, Grandma.

Grandma.

Did Dad pick you up?

I asked him to go back first.

Zhiming will pick me up later.

Okay, no problem.

At night,

I prepared

a mysterious gift for you.

Sure.

I'll wait for you.
