=Episode 27=

Zao,

you are his uncle.

You should know better.

Apologize.

No need. We are all family.

It's not that serious.

Zao, just apologize.

Yu.

Let's go.

Zhiming,

I have thought about it.

Things are complicated at my home

and I don't want to get you involved.

Wait for me outside.

Okay.

Call me if you need anything.

Don't worry.

I told you.

Your aunt and uncle raised you up.

They are almost like your parents.

We must be grateful.

You've grown up now.

It's time for you to repay the kindness.

Apologize.

Zao, what's wrong with apologizing?

Will you not listen?

Is it so difficult to apologize?

What's wrong now?

You want my brother to apologize again?

My friend has already told me.

Just two little kids

had a fight.

It is normal.

But indulging him too much isn't right.

If parents don't discipline their kids,

once they graduate,

others will do it for them.

Liu Wanyu,

now your son and daughter

are bullying us together, right?

Fang, don't add fuel to the fire.

Zao,

if you don't apologize today,

it would show
I haven't taught my children properly.

Alright, let me apologize for you, okay?

Sorry, everyone.

I am really sorry.

Mom, what are you doing?

You...

Don't act like we're obligated to them!

I remember the years

after Grandma passed away.

Is that what you call taking care of me?

Mom.

Why do you always subconsciously
think I am the one at fault?

You never gave me a chance to explain.

Do you know how much
I have suffered over these years?

In this family,

I'm just not important, right?

When I was young,

you sent me back to our hometown.

It was you who didn't want me!

Now,

I have no reason to stay
at this home any longer.

Zao.

Huan,

sorry.

Zao.

Dad, have you realized it yet?

Their family
has been putting on an act for us.

One a big boss, the other a top lawyer.

It's obvious that they look down on us.

If you look down on us, just say it.

Why make all those good speeches?

Fang Jie.

Fang Jie, could you please stop talking?

As an adult, can you behave like one?

You're so happy to see us fight?

You stole money when we were little,

and you made Zao take the blame.

Do you dare to tell everyone?

Do you admit you led everyone

to bully Zao when we were little?

Huan,

is all this true?

Mom,

Zao didn't tell you
because he is sensible

and considerate.

But that doesn't mean
he should always be bullied like that.

Zao, are you okay?

Zhiming, I'm fine.

Could you please tell my sister later

to not worry about me?

I want to be alone for a while.

You took care of Zao when we were young.

I'm very grateful to you.

So this time,

we're glad you came here.

And we've gone all out
to make you feel at home.

But don't go too far.

Although we are relatives,

you should respect us

and have a sense of propriety.

If you really feel

uncomfortable here and want to go home,

do as you please.

Mai Chenghuan!

How dare you talk to me like that?

Can you please calm down?

Liu Wanrong, be clear
about which family you belong to.

You have no say here!

Uncle,

can you please not talk
to my aunt like this?

Mai Chenghuan,

almost 30, right?

You're not married
and don't want children

but try to be a "strong woman"?

I think you're just mentally disturbed!

And you say you won't associate with us?

Let me be honest with you,

I'm concerned
that you'd be a bad influence

on our grandson!

You!

What's the matter with you today?

You can take your anger out on me.

Don't make it difficult
for my son and daughter.

I was just about to scold you.

Back in the day,
you came to Shanghai alone.

You had a child
and left him with us to raise.

Little did you know back then

that it was your sister and I
who took care of the old and the young.

How much money did we spend on him?

Do you know that?

Yu kept sending money to us.

You can't just deny it.

That's just a small amount of money.

Now they're wealthy,

and they turn their backs, disown us

and want us to leave.

Ready to abandon all family ties, right?

Fine.

The money, the time and the effort spent

all these years
on the old and the young.

You must reimburse me in full.

If you don't compensate,

I won't leave this place

and you'll have to support me
for the rest of my life!

What are you doing?

It is illegal to intrude
into a private home.

You want to be put into jail?

Wait, who are you?

None of us know you.

You're the one trespassing
into a residence.

Who am I? I'm the owner of this house.

What owner?

Isn't this house owned by Liu Wanyu?

You're fooling us?

Mai Chenghuan, whose house is this?

He is the landlord of this house.

We're just staying temporarily.

I'll give you three minutes
and call the police if you don't leave.

Fine, we'll leave. It's no big deal.

Let's go.

Liu Wanrong, go.

Yu,

I'm really sorry this time.

No, my bad.

Auntie.

Didn't I tell you to wait outside?

Why did you come in?

I just saw Zao a bit unhappy.

I was worried something was wrong.

So I came in to check.

Yes, Zao had a fight
with my mom and ran away.

Did he tell you where he was going?

He said he wanted some peace

and that you need not worry about him.

It's good that you came in today.

Who knows what might have happened
if you hadn't come?

But my uncle finally left.

Now he's gone,

and our home is finally peaceful.

But I think your aunt

might end up caught
in the middle and have a hard time.

My aunt

is a good person.

For decades, day in and day out,

she's sacrificed herself
to take care of her family.

But in the end,

the beneficiaries don't even say
a word of thanks,

and they even yell at her.

As well as my mom, which is the thing.

To tell you the truth,

I'm very angry. How can they?

It's the same with the older generation.

Most people

sacrifice everything for their families.

My mom is like this too.

Used to self-sacrifice

and giving out unconditionally.

But the key is,
she would turn this resentment

onto her family members.

Take Zao for example.

She's used to forgiving others
and blaming her family.

Actually, when I walked in the door

and heard her saying
those things to Zao,

I was pretty angry.

But later, when I saw her
being scolded by my uncle,

I felt sorry for her.

I wanted to speak up
for her and protect her.

But I just felt

that she somehow created this situation

by herself.

It's just a feeling
of helplessness, you know?

And I think, for 29 years,

I have been guilt-tripping,

which makes me quite uncomfortable.

I understand it all.

It's like parents

waiting for their children
to be grateful,

while the children are waiting
for them to apologize.

To tell you the truth,

I just hope my mom
can live her own life.

I don't want her to get trapped
in the unnecessary mess anymore.

Why don't we go back
and have a chat with your mom?

No.

I just don't know how to face her later.

My mom values relationships and family

and cares about her pride.

Because of this matter,

her relationship
with my aunt will become worse.

I don't know how to talk
to her when I go back.

Because I'm afraid

that we'll start arguing about values

and get into an endless loop.

Honestly, I'm quite scared.

Besides, my uncle

must have left a mess in Xing'anli.

I want to go back and check.

Okay.

I'll go back and soothe her.

Leave it to me.

You're quite experienced
in dealing with these things now.

Actually,

I think Mrs. Mai is quite adorable.

I quite enjoy talking to her.

Alright, let's not talk about it.

I'll walk you there.

No need.

I want to walk and calm down by myself.

You go back.

Okay.

I'm leaving.

Hello, Huan.

Mao,

Zao had a fierce quarrel with my mom.

What happened?

It's nothing. Anyway, if he...

If he comes to you,
please comfort him for me.

Okay, I got it. Leave it to me.

Okay.

Mao, where's Dingding?

I bought him a cake.

He's tired from playing
and is sleeping upstairs.

You eat first.

I'll help you clean up here.

How is business today?
Were there many people?

Not bad.

Dingding didn't have much fun today.

We'll go again another day.

Zao, did anything happen today?

It's nothing.

You don't have to hide it from me.

What exactly happened? Tell me.

It's nothing.

It's just...

I had a fight with my mom.

Here, sit down.

Come on.

Was it because of Dingding?

No, it was not related to him.

It was my mom.

She asked me to apologize

before figuring things out.

I wanted to explain to her,
but she wouldn't listen.

She has always been like this.

Always disregarding my thoughts.

Let me tell you.

No mother wouldn't care

about her child's thoughts.

Besides, you know

your mother.

She gets more anxious than anyone
when something happens.

Moreover, she's not a bad person.

She is just

somewhat prideful.

Anyway, I won't be going home.

What are you doing,
throwing a temper tantrum?

Okay.

If you're not going home, stay with me.

Anyway, where I am is your home.

Thank you.

I told you so.

Keep a low profile.

Keep a low profile.

Alright.

Take your medicine.

I don't want others to say
I'm heartless and ungrateful.

I don't want others to bad-mouth me.

What now?

They turned against you,

and your son ran off.

You're satisfied now.

- Okay.
- Mrs. Mai, it was also my fault.

It was a good thing
that your relatives came.

Look, I messed it up.

But Ming,

you were indeed a bit too much today.

Yeah.

So I'm here to apologize to you.

Please calm down.

If you're still angry,

just take it out on me.

No.

Look.

Look at him.

So good.

After all this,

a man without the surname Mai

understands me better
than everyone in this family.

Some family members have left.

Some scolded me.

I didn't scold you.

Mrs. Mai,

there's no frictionless relationship
among relatives.

Don't overthink it.

It will be fine after a while.

It will be fine after a while.

Yu, I've transferred
the room fee for Xing'anli to you.

I've troubled you this time.

See?

It's all good now?

They're distant from us.

All my effort for nothing.

Mai,

has our daughter not been doing well

at work and feeling upset recently?

Of course not.

Taking over such a big hotel
at such a young age.

Mrs. Mai, Chenghuan
has been under much pressure recently.

Last month, the working capital

for Xing'anli
was just barely sufficient.

Really?

Ming,

please don't compete
with her for business anymore.

Okay, I'll listen to you.

I'll go upstairs.

What has got into him?

What?

Recently, he's been always like,

"Alright, okay,"

no matter what it is.

Let me tell you.

You're really something.

"Don't compete with our daughter
for business anymore."

How could you say that?

I was telling the truth.

Enough. Yu, listen.

You should reflect on yourself.

Take Zao for example, right?

He's been introverted, sensitive

and careworn.

When you talk to him,

you really need to be careful.

I have a headache.

What's wrong?

Lie down for a bit.

Lie down for a bit.

I really didn't expect Zao to be treated
so badly in the countryside.

What kind of people?

The child is naughty
and but what were his parents thinking?

We may not finish the cleanup
by the end of the workday.

Bad luck!

Miss Mai.

Let me clean up with you guys.

This is the closest to the bridal suite.

Let's hurry up and clean up.

We have customers coming in
for an engagement.

Miss Mai, you don't need to.

Leave it to me.
Don't get your clothes dirty.

It's fine.

This was done by my relatives.

I should take responsibility.

We will get it done faster
if we do it together.

I will give you
your overtime pay as usual.

Let's all finish early
and leave work together.

Okay.

Come on.

Okay.

Okay, that's about it.

It's finished. Go home.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

What took you so long?

I just...

I was just working inside
on something with the staff.

You've been waiting here for me?

If something like that happens again,

just come to me for my help.

And I've taken care of your parents.

Thanks!

This is a reward for you.

You give the same thing every time.
There's no novelty at all.

You don't like it? Give it back to me.

Who says I don't like it?

I like it very much.

As long as it's from you,

I will like it.

We're at the hotel entrance. Be careful.

So what?

Let's go. I'll take you to have fun.

Where are you taking me?
Is it a ride again?

You'll know once we get there.

How do you know this place?

I used to come here often.

I've seen it on your WeChat Moments.

Are you spying on me?

It's public, man.

That was so long ago.

You did a background check on me?

I just want to know you better.

Yao Zhiming.

What are you looking at?

Don't you put your feet in?

Waiting for you. Ladies first.

Ladies first?

You're afraid, right?

How could that be?

Do it.

I'm waiting for you.

Do it.

I didn't expect you
to be afraid of fish!

Well...

Aren't the fish that nibble
on dead skin too big?

Big?

As big as the fish you catch?

When I fish, I eat the fish.

Now they're eating me.

Fine, scaredy-cat.

I'll show you how it's done.

See that?

Easy. You can even dance inside.

Do you want to give it a try?

Give it a try.

Don't dawdle. Hurry up.

Okay, I'll try it.

Come on.

I'll do it myself.

Hurry up.

Do it.

How is it?

Not bad.

Isn't it pretty good?

Yao Zhiming,

these fish

are quite pitiful.

They can only eat dead skin every day.

Not really.

Don't think like that.

I find them quite cute, free and easy.

Your thoughts

really impressed me.

Huan,

would you like

to come back home with me today?

Did my mom send you?

No, I was just asking.

Yao Zhiming, I am already of age now.

I know how to handle

a lot of things myself.

So you don't need to worry.

Why do you act like my mom?

I just haven't figured out
how to face her.

So let's both cool down for a while.

Okay, I'll listen to you.

What species are these fish?

Don't you fish every day?

They must be called

dead-skin fish?

Come on. There is no fish
called dead-skin fish.

Yu.

It's already midnight.

Don't wait anymore.

I messaged her and sent voice calls
on WeChat, but no reply.

It's so late and she's still not back.

Where do you think she's staying?

Huan told me she was

probably staying at a friend's place.

Staying at a friend's?

What kind of friend?

A classmate?

I don't know more.

Alright.

Don't wait anymore. She'll be back
in a couple of days. Be good.

Is it...

- Is it a classmate or a colleague?
- Probably a colleague.

Let's go.

You should ask clearly.

You are

always like this,

never taking
important matters seriously.

Careless.

What's wrong with you?

I said I would be here in ten minutes.

Is it necessary to rush me like this?

What happened?

Just say it and don't act mysterious.

What's wrong?

(Butterfly Pastries)
The butterfly pastries from Xing'anli?

Did you get a personal shopper
to queue and buy it?

Are you blind?

Take a good look.

Xing'anli's boss customized

the butterfly pastries for me.

Boss,

you're making serious progress

in your relationship

with her.

What are you doing?

Give me a piece.

Can't you get a personal shopper?

What personal shopper?

Look. Come on. Stop it.

Enough.

(Ms. Zhang)

Oh, my God.

She is really annoying.

She keeps asking
about the acquisition over and over.

Come on.

Hello, Ms. Zhang.

Mr. Yao has gone to meet a client.

He forgot his phone,
and I'm about to take it to him.

What stage has the acquisition
of Xing'anli reached?

The head office set
a one-month deadline for Eric.

It won't be finished directly
without internal communication, right?

Ms. Zhang, please don't worry.

I'll convey this truthfully to Mr. Yao.

Have Eric talk to me.

Otherwise, I will not be lenient.

Ms. Zhang,

you might have misunderstood.

My direct supervisor
is Amber from the headquarters,

not you.

So there's no need for you
to worry about the acquisition.

Are you trying
to draw a clear line with me?

It's up to you how you
interpret my words.

What do we do when the time comes?

I'll figure something out.

Give me a piece. I'm really hungry.

I...

I'll buy it myself.

Fine.

Is everyone here?

I'm cooking your favorite dishes today.

My specialty dishes.

Can you come home for dinner?

The wedding season is coming up soon.

The marketing department
is quite impressive.

They've got many high-quality orders.

So there would be
a good result, I guess.

Whether we can be rated
as a specialty hotel at last

depends on the performance
of this quarter.

So we may

need you to pay some extra attention.

Rest assured.
We're all on the same side.

If your hotel does well,
I'll benefit from it too.

So you can be completely at ease.

I will definitely give it my all.

Thank you. That's great.

What's the matter, little one?

Sir, your girlfriend
is really beautiful.

Buy a bouquet for her.

Little one, he's not my boyfriend.

There's nothing between us.

But your flowers are very pretty.

I'll buy a few bouquets myself, okay?

- Let me do it.
- No, let me.

Little girl,

I will buy flowers for this pretty lady.

30 yuan per bouquet.

Okay.

Good.

I will buy all
the remaining flowers for you,

and you can call it a day.

Thank you. I wish you happiness.

I wish you happiness too.

Can you give all these flowers

to passersby on behalf of my girlfriend

and wish them happiness?

- Bye.
- Bye.

(Duo, for this social practice,
I'll give you full marks.)

(Let's go home.)

Let me introduce myself.
I'm her boyfriend.

No wonder I sensed

something back then.

I was really too hurried
to make introductions.

Today I'll formally do it.

My boyfriend, Yao Zhiming.

Hello.

Yes, we shook hands last time.

Do you have plans in a bit?

We would like to treat you to a meal.

- And we'll talk more about work.
- No.

I will leave you two alone.

Chenghuan, I'll take my leave.

See you later.

Bye.

Bye, thanks for your work.

How come I smell on someone

a hint of jealousy?

It is indeed jealousy.

He can go into Xing'anli
while I can only wait outside.

I truly didn't know

that you were such a person.

You don't know me well enough.

You need to know me
better in the future.

Annoying.

Where are we going in a bit?

Let's go

to Zao later.

Go see him

with me

as his brother-in-law.

Let's go.

Yu.

Yu.

Sorry for coming back late.

Before getting off work,

Mr. Yao asked me to take
a client to the airport.

You know it was rush hour.

This round trip took almost three hours.

They haven't returned yet?

Do you think I should

give them a call one by one

and order them to come home
to eat immediately?

Sure, go ahead and call.

Show your skills then.

It's a test of your authority.

Anyway,

I sent voice messages and texts

to them,

and they ignored me.

You already sent them WeChat messages?

Then forget about it.

Where is your confidence now?

Aren't you going to command them?

Do it.

Braggart.

Blowhard.

I just wanted to make you happy.

It's alright. I'll eat with you.

Who needs you?

The ones who should come
to eat don't come.

The ones who should come
to eat don't come?

So I'm the one

who shouldn't come to eat?

What brings you two here?

We're together now.

Good. You're a real master, Mr. Yao.

You even won her over.

You're not bad, either.

Haven't you got him charmed as well?

Yes.

Then come on.

A toast from your future in-law.

But I must say,
you two are quite something.

Keeping it a secret from me for so long.

If I don't ask, you won't tell, right?

One is my own brother,
and the other, my best friend.

How could you keep it in for so long?

No, Huan, I was afraid
you guys wouldn't agree.

I'm going to beat you up.

Why would you think I wouldn't agree?

I'm over the moon
that you two are together.

Haven't I always been secretly
supporting you guys?

But Zao,

I think you made
a very responsible decision.

You're a mature man.

No, the mature man is right there.

Zao is still young.

Alright. Should we talk
about something serious?

I think you two

should pay some attention to Ms. Liu.

She sent a message in the group.

No one has replied yet.

Zao, the day after tomorrow
is your birthday.

Can you come home for dinner?

Should you two

have a good talk with Ms. Liu?

I really think she meant well.

After all, you are all family.

Just have it out with each other.

But it's just a suggestion
from an outsider.

Just have a listen.

I think

you're right.

And now,

you're no longer an outsider.

Zao, tomorrow I'll go back
and talk with Mom.

Spend your birthday with us.

Ever since you came
to Shanghai as a child,

we've celebrated your birthday
together every year.

Okay.

Go back and have
a good talk with your mom.

Come on. Live happily

with your family.

Cheers.

Be happy.

Ming, you're back.

Mrs. Mai, you're still up?

What happened to your feet?

It's nothing.

I'm a bit tired today,
so the old injury is acting up.

I called Huan, but she didn't answer.

I called Zao,
but he didn't answer, either.

Neither of them came home.

Mrs. Mai,

Huan is working overtime.

She definitely won't come back tonight.

Zao is a young man.

It's normal for him
to go out and hang out with friends.

There's nothing to worry about.

It's all my fault.

How about I cook some dishes
and go see her at Xing'anli tomorrow?

She needs to strengthen her nutrition.

She often gets so busy
and forgets to eat.

And I'll take the opportunity

to ask her to persuade Zao.

Do you think this is a good idea?

Mrs. Mai, take my advice.

Don't go to Xing'anli
while she's at work.

That's your daughter's battlefield.

Give her some space.

I'm worried about her.

She always forgets to eat.

If this continues,
her health will deteriorate.

It's getting cold.

I'm afraid she'll catch a cold,
so I'll bring her some common medicine.

Time to sleep.

These are the next candidates' resumes.
Please have a look.

Miss Mai, I'm here again.

Since we've met,
I won't introduce myself again.

Have you thought
about the question I asked you?

The HR lady has told me

you are in an online competition.

Online marketing

is what I'm best at.

This is my answer.

You go ahead with your work.

Okay.

(Xing'anli Garden Hotel
Marketing Program)

Xing'anli is likened to settling down.

Coming to Xing'anli
has become a new way of urban living.

What do you think about it?

My first impression of Xing'anli

is a quaint and warm place.

It has a very homely feel.

In this increasingly modern city,

this kind of vibe is rare to see.

And considering the charm
of the old building,

I think we should
innovate on this basis.

It's not common to see people
who resonate so much with home.

My home

is just cold.

My mom has never cared about me.

In her eyes, I'm just like furniture.

So Xing'anli gives me
a strong sense of home.

I think Ms. Liu is very nice.

Why don't we switch places?

I really want to switch with you.

Every parent is the same.

They definitely love their children.

It's just that the methods differ.

Just like between me and my mom,

there are also many issues.

So you want to come to Xing'anli

in order to get Ms. Zhang to notice you?

I've thought it through.

I want to prove myself

and make her see me.

I really don't want
our relationship to remain like this.

Come to work next week.

Prove yourself.

Yes.

We're working on the evaluation
for the top ten specialty hotels.

Therefore, we need to strictly
implement standardization

to improve our service quality.

Miss Mai,

your relatives have made
the hotel a complete mess.

And now you're asking us
to standardize our services.

Is that appropriate?

Liao Gang, you know nothing.

We adhered to our hotel's policies

and procedures when accommodating
Miss Mai's relatives.

Miss Mai paid for it herself.

And no special treatment was provided.

They are my relatives.

But at the same time,

they are also our guests.

The reason for standardization

is because we can't determine

what kind of people come every day.

And this time,

it just exposed

significant problems
with our emergency measures.

The children were playing
with mud in the lobby.

Not a single staff member
stepped forward to remind them.

After the accident,

not a single staff member

approached to soothe the guests

or provide a reasonable explanation
or compensation,

which caused it

to escalate further.

I hope such a thing

will not happen again in the future.

Yao Zhiming,

I am now working in Xing'anli.

Just reporting to you.

Ziyu, you...

What's wrong?

Ms. Liu, what brings you here?

I brought her food.

Chenghuan is in a meeting.

A meeting?

Also...

It's time to eat.

Based on this current goal,

I sent you an email

on the new performance appraisal system

we will implement in the future.

I hope we can in all aspects

align with five-star hotels.

What is all this?

When Ms. Chen was alive,

she never made these demands of us.

Mr. Cui, you're the most senior here.
What do you think?

♪My sweetie♪

♪I don't know if I'm a good mother♪

♪It's my first time being a mother♪

♪Though the years
have turned my hair white♪

♪I'm too busy to have meals on time,
but that's not my fault♪

♪It will make me feel guilty
to let you know about it♪

♪I know you care about me♪

♪But it makes me feel like
I've never been trusted♪

♪Those carefree people can't be mothers♪

♪I know it all, but it breaks my heart♪

♪Please let me pursue the life
that belongs to me♪

♪I'm as brave and kind as you,
so I'm not afraid♪

♪One day, you will also become a mother♪

♪Will we embrace each other on that day♪

♪Like a stream traveling
around the world♪

♪And returning to where it came from♪

♪I hope you are loved♪

♪I hope you find happiness♪

♪I hope I can shelter you
from the storms♪

♪I know that we argue sometimes♪

♪I know that people will grow old♪

♪So we must say I love you out loud♪

- ♪My mother watched me out of sight♪
- ♪Are you nearly home♪

- ♪My memories became so intense♪
- ♪The door is open♪

♪Through the gentle times♪

♪Wherever you are is my home♪

♪Come back home♪

♪My sweetie♪

♪Please believe in yourself♪
