EPISODE 6

If it's the case, do you think

it is Mom who has lost her passion or Dad?

Hurry up and eat. We have to go.

I'm not hungry. You guys help yourselves.

But Wei En, even loving couples bicker sometimes.

Really? I don't think so.

I've never seen you two quarrel.

You'll understand when you have a boyfriend.

Brother-in-law, can I ask you a question?

How many relationships have you had before you were married?

Tell me.

Wei En,

I think I know the answer to your question.

Keep it to yourself.

Come on, tell me.

I heard he had a girlfriend back in college.

Really?

-Was she pretty? -I heard she was.

She had a great body and long flowing hair just like a model.

What happened?

Well...

-they broke up. -Oh?

Why?

According to Rui Xuan, that girl was brutal.

When she dumped Rui Fan,

she even wrote a letter to him,

saying she didn't wish him farewell

-because it'd be hypocritical. -Hey,

how did you know that?

Before I married you, your sister and I were best friends.

Of course I'd know.

Besides that, he had two other girlfriends,

-both at the same time. -What?

You mean Brother-in-law was a two-timer?

Of course not!

He'd never do such things.

Those two girls fell in love with him at the same time.

He was quite the dreamboat.

Enough already. Stop telling these stories to a little kid.

Come on, it's been over ten years.

I should stop now. Someone's getting angry.

-But An Zhen, -Yes?

I heard it's very difficult to find a guy who doesn't cheat.

The odds are lower than 5%.

-Really? -Yes.

Besides, from a biological standpoint, men are born to cheat.

What?

Cheating again, are you?

I'll show you!

What are you talking about? I told you I didn't cheat!

How dare you lie!

-Hey, Wei En, check my vase, quickly. -Okay.

Is it damaged?

-It's fine. -Gosh!

What a relief!

I'm going to settle this once and for all. Who's the woman?

-What woman? -Tell me now!

Just admit you're cheating!

-You're too much! -Who says I'm cheating? You shrew!

Stop it, you're making a scene!

I saw that woman with my own eyes!

-Aren't you going to tell me? -You're embarrassing yourself.

Let's go.

Come on.

See?

So all men like to cheat?

Don't listen to them. I'm going to be late. Hurry up.

-Pick me up at 11:30 a.m. -Okay.

-Sure. -Drive carefully.

-All right, do your best, honey! -All right.

Wei En, you too!

-Thanks, An Zhen. Bye-bye. -Bye-bye.

Wei En,

it was an accident last night.

Please forge it.

Why are you laughing?

You're so funny, Brother-in-law.

If you didn't tell me, I'd have forgotten about it.

Look kid, you don't have to speak so harshly.

Hey, I'm not a kid, okay?

I'm not a kid.

I've been in a relationship before.

I know

what it feels like to be dumped.

It was on that day,

that I went to the animal shelter

and picked up Oliver.

Brother-in-law,

don't worry too much.

We must show the people who hurt us before

what we're made of.

Rui Fan, do your best!

Do your best!

Sorry, the number you dialed is not available.

Please call again later. Thank you.

Sorry, the number you dialed is not--

Mr. Lan, why aren't you picking up my calls?

Excuse me.

How long will it take?

Half an hour for sure.

Half an hour?

Can you make it quicker? I need to pick up my husband at 11:30 a.m.

No problem. I can make it.

Thank you.

Sorry, the number you dialed is not--

Mr. Lan is so unprofessional!

How can a salesman not answer a call?

How can I sleep at night with such an expensive vase on my hands?

XIE AN ZHEN

Hi, Xie An Zhen.

Why are you calling me so early in the morning?

What's wrong? You sound out of breath.

Oh, because I'm running

to catch the bus.

Thanks to you, I missed it.

Oh no.

Never mind. Forget the bus.

Just give me your address and I'll send the vase to you.

Didn't you say you'll give it to me a few days later?

No, no.

I want to return it now. Just give me your address quickly.

How about this? Go to the mansion where we last met.

and give me a call, okay?

-Honey. -Honey.

Is everything settled?

Changing departments is such a hassle. No one knows what to expect.

Why don't you just stay here?

-I can return it myself. -No way.

I can't let you go by yourself.

I need to go with you, and meet the guy in person.

-I'll also buy him lunch. -You're going to buy him lunch?

After all, he lent us an antique worth tens and thousands of dollars.

I have no idea why he did this.

Anyway, I still need to thank him.

All right. But are you sure you have time?

Sure, if there's anything, Ah Tang will call me.

-All right. -Let's go.

Okay.

Honey,

if he says there's a scratch on the vase and asks you for compensation,

what will you do?

-Would he? -Why not?

He won't.

He doesn't seem like that type of guy.

How many times have I told you not to be so naive?

You think everyone's a good person.

Mr. Lan!

Mr. Lan, this is my husband.

Nice to meet you. I'm Wen Rui Fan.

Nice to meet you. I'm Lan Tien Wei.

You're younger than I expected.

Youngsters who are kind like you are

a rare breed these days.

And I rarely come across a wife who's as supportive as An Zhen.

-It's nothing, I was just-- -So I decided to do her a small favor.

Don't worry, I wasn't up to anything.

I'm quite blunt. I hope you don't mind.

Of course not.

Lending such an expensive item is no small favor, am I right?

Expensive? It's all right. No big deal.

How about this? Have you had lunch?

If not, we would like to take you out for lunch

-as a token of our appreciation. -Yeah.

I don't think it's necessary. I was only offering to help.

Oh.

Excuse me, I have a phone call.

Mr. Lan, why don't you join us?

Otherwise, we'd never be able to thank you.

-Please. -Oh, all right.

How did this happen?

Mr. Zhuang is calling for an emergency meeting?

I'll get back to the office. Okay. Bye.

Sorry, something just came up at work.

Go ahead then. We'll have lunch some other time.

An Zhen, why don't you take him to lunch?

I need to go back to the office. Sorry.

I'm sorry, please give me a minute.

Honey!

why don't we have lunch with him some other day?

It's too late for us to back out now. Besides, he doesn't seem like a bad guy.

Most importantly, he doesn't seem like he knows how much it's worth.

You're right.

He's not trying to sell insurance, either.

-All right, I have to go now. -Okay, good luck with your meeting.

-Thanks. -Bye.

What do you think? My husband is handsome, isn't he?

Yes, he is.

But his heart is even more appealing than his looks.

I think someone up there is looking out for me.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have married him.

To me, you're not his wife.

You're more like his fan.

But I am. I'm his number one fan.

Hey, don't you want to check your vase?

-No need. It's nothing. -Oh.

Hey, what do you mean "nothing"?

How can you call ten-thousand-dollars "nothing"?

When I found out its value,

I was so shocked I almost cut my finger off. See?

And you call that "nothing"?

Can you please speak calmly and gracefully?

I hate it when women prattle on like that.

Hey, you're the one

who lent a ten-thousand-dollar vase to a complete stranger!

Are you crazy?

Who told you that vase is worth that much?

It was my husband's boss.

Mr. Zhuang is an expert in these things.

Mr. Zhuang? More like Mr. Know-it-all.

Everyone's calling themselves an expert these days.

Really?

Really.

Why would I lend a ten-thousand-dollar item to anyone?

Especially you?

You think I'm nuts?

What do you mean, "especially me"?

I would wonder what would happen if I broke it.

Don't believe me?

-Let me show you. -Hey,

don't do it.

That thing may not be expensive, but it's still worth something.

Besides, if you put this vase at a...

What's the matter?

Hey,

I didn't notice this before,

but your house is really big.

Is selling insurance that lucrative?

Of course not.

This is my classmate's house.

He went abroad for business, so he let me stay here.

In return, I take care of the house for him and collect his mail.

How nice.

No wonder you can make your sale in a mansion like this.

Other salesmen aren't allowed here, right?

Right.

So are you happy now?

I'm so relieved that I returned the vase. I couldn't sleep last night.

Good for you.

-Are we still having lunch? -Yes.

My husband asked me to.

Forget it then. You can go back now.

It wasn't my idea.

I guess I should be polite and pretend it was mine.

All right.

To show you my gratitude,

how about I treat you to a nice roast pork and rice?

-Roast pork and rice? -Yes.

Hey, I went through so much trouble for you,

and all I get is roast pork and rice?

Okay, why don't you tell me what you want?

Lunch is on you, right?

-Yes. -So I get to choose the place?

Sure. I'll buy you anything you want. All right?

We must show the people who hurt us before

what we're made of.

Brother-in-law, do your best.

We need to settle the handover this week.

Qi Qi, familiarize yourself with the sales department.

Ah Tang, brief the sales team on the project we're working on,

and get them up to speed.

Let me handle the sales team. I want to give them a hard time.

Don't forget.

The three of us will be joining the sales department.

And remember what goes around comes around.

I really admire your character.

But I don't think the people from sales would share your attitude.

Even if they want to sabotage us, we have Kang De on our side.

He'll tell us all their schemes.

Kang De might not know what their real plan is.

The sales department is an important part of the company.

Its politics are complicated.

We worked so hard to come up with the ideas.

All He Ai Lin did was execute it and reap its rewards.

It's so unfair.

To be honest, I'm not happy about it, either.

But what's the use in complaining about it?

Since the company has made this arrangement,

we should accept the challenge.

-I'll do my best to be the VP. -Okay.

I hope we can work together

and show everyone at the company how good we are.

Don't worry Rui Fan, we'll do our best!

Yes, I will!

Since we just joined sales, let's not focus on results first.

We must familiarize ourselves with the way things work here

in order to lead it.

I believe if we do things by the book, and maintain a healthy profit,

our company will

-treat us fairly as well. -I agree!

That's the spirit!

-Do your best! -Do your best!

Mr. Lan!

Why are we coming here for lunch?

Is it too expensive for you?

-I really regret helping you. -No, don't!

I'm telling you, big restaurants like this are

just tourist traps. Their food is no good.

Didn't we just pass by a grill restaurant?

That looked pretty good and there were lots of people.

-All you can eat for ten dollars! -Okay. Wait.

Hello?

-Tien Wei. -Uncle.

I've already reserved a table for you.

Walnut Raisin Bread

Five dollars?

-Thanks. -Don't mention it.

This restaurant belongs to your grandfather anyway.

Don't be shy. I've informed the manager.

All right.

Hurry. I've booked a table.

If you haven't decided, I have a recommendation.

The Catalonian seafood soup here is delicious.

How would you know? You've had it?

My rich friend brought me here before.

Okay. I'll just have the seafood soup, thanks.

Is that enough?

Yeah, I had a big breakfast.

I didn't.

I was chasing the bus all morning. I'm starving.

Then order away.

-I appreciate it. -You're welcome.

I'd like to have the boneless American beef ribs,

a smoked salmon salad,

and a cognac lobster bisque.

And this one,

wild mushrooms with cream sauce.

For dessert...

Ma'am, are you done with the soup?

Not yet. Thank you.

Want to try some?

It's okay. I'm good.

Take my advice Mr. Lan.

Don't eat at pricey restaurants all the time.

I think you've been influenced by your rich friend.

You should work hard while you're young. How can you indulge like this?

-At this rate, you won't have any savings. -Yeah.

Besides, you don't earn much.

Haven't you heard of the saying,

"willful waste makes woeful want"?

-So we must-- -An Zhen,

take my advice. Order more food.

-Eat while you can. -Hey,

what do you mean? You think we don't have to pay?

Why, yes.

Are you trying to dine and dash?

That's right.

Keep dreaming!

Dine and dash...

Mom.

Didn't you say I'm taking my life too seriously?

Luckily, I found a fool to have some fun with,

so I...

All right. This will be the last time.

I'll leave her alone after I had my fun, okay?

-Are you full? -Yeah.

I'll get the bill then.

Wait.

Did you think I was joking?

What I told you wasn't a joke.

I found out

if you walk out without looking too suspicious,

no one will ask you to pay.

You're talking nonsense again.

You don't believe me? Follow me.

Wait, hey!

Hey! Stop fooling around. What if they call the police?

Stop talking and keep your head up. Let's go.

Sir.

See? I knew it!

I'm sorry, this is a misunderstanding. We're just pulling a little prank.

No worries, here's a gift from our restaurant.

Please come again.

Thank you.

If you don't hurry, police might come.

Police?

Hurry.

Well, what did I tell you? We're safe now.

I can't believe it.

This restaurant must be losing money.

Not really.

How many people have the guts and the wits to pull this off?

You're a strange man. But Mr. Lan, please listen to me--

Please, An Zhen. Stop preaching to me.

It's funny. You look young,

but you sound like an old woman.

Okay, I won't nag you anymore.

Hey, where are you going?

I'm going to pay.

To pay?

We ran all the way here to save you some money,

-and you-- -Have you ever thought

about the staff in the restaurant? What if they have to pay for it?

What if they lose their job because of us?

I don't want that to happen to them. Of course I want to save money.

It's just that...

I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

I'll pass.

My party was a success, I treated you with a nice meal,

and I had a lot of fun just now. Thank you, Mr. Lan.

Don't forget to work hard, and improve yourself.

I'm sure you'll make it one day.

Think about what you've done. Don't dine and dash anymore.

That's funny.

Why do I feel like I got fooled by her instead?

This morning, I saw Mrs. Fan sending Rui Fan and you to work.

Not bad.

An Zhen was sending off her husband. I was just there for the ride.

An Zhen must be itching to become Mrs. Vice President.

She's just an innocent housewife, okay?

She's not that shrewd.

Who do you think will become the vice president?

I'm just an assistant. How would I know?

Just take a guess.

If I have to choose,

I'd honestly say

that Brother-in-law would be a good fit.

Therefore, I hope he'll become the vice president.

You're going to say "but", aren't you?

But, the business world is just like the ocean.

Sharks will always dominate in the end.

Do you think Ai Lin is a shark?

Some things are better left unsaid.

What if I get bitten by a shark?

What if a little shark gives

a mermaid a little token?

Would the mermaid trust the little shark?

Sorry, I can't accept your gift.

When I first saw you,

I knew this would be your perfume.

I can't give it to anyone else. If you don't take it,

it'll be such a waste.

You've only known me a few days. How do you know that perfume is for me?

Trust me. You'll know after you use it.

Hey, can the little shark ask the mermaid out to play?

We'll see.

I don't really like the smell of blood.

Just put this on, and you won't smell any blood.

No one gets to decide my scent

but me.

Kang De, you wanted to see me?

-Wei En! -Yes?

Come here quickly. Listen.

The situation here is as bad as global warming.

Even the polar bears are having saunas.

Birds like us better migrate somewhere else.

Help me pack up.

O... Okay.

After toiling away for so many years,

I finally get to enjoy the fruits of my labor.

Just when I was about to get my reward,

that scheming bitch, He Ai Lin decided to transfer me.

I'm done for!

If she becomes the vice president,

everything Rui Fan has worked for will be ruined.

Is it that bad?

Yes.

When Rui Fan joins our department,

I'll become his guide dog, no...

his tour guide. You understand?

I understand.

But you can still help Brother-in-law secretly, can't you?

Some secret locations can only be reached with the help of a tour guide.

If I take Rui Fan to those locations,

He Ai Lin would know it was me who guided him.

She'd kill me for sure.

If she becomes the vice president,

all my hard work for the past ten years would go down the drain.

Besides, when that happens,

Rui Fan's life here would be hell.

Hey.

-Wait. -What?

If that she-devil becomes the vice president,

will she still bother Brother-in-law?

Becoming the vice president is one thing,

keeping that position is another.

Rui Fan is just like a grain of sand in He Ai Lin's eye.

If she doesn't get rid of him, will she ever feel comfortable?

This is a matter of life and death.

Either He Ai Lin will fall

or Wen Rui Fan will perish.

What's up, dog?

Come on, check this out.

These are the sales secrets I've acquired over the years.

Study them. Don't say I never taught you anything.

Thank you, Kang De.

-See this list of clients? -Yeah.

Just call them and ask them how they're doing.

-Do I have to call everyone? -Of course.

KAI WEN

-I have to call everyone? -Of course.

Hello?

Wei En, are you alone right now? This is Kai Wen.

Are you free this weekend? Let's go for a drink.

This is a matter of life and death.

Either He Ai Lin will fall,

or Wen Rui Fan will perish.

-Wei En? -What?

Oh, all right.

I'll talk to you later, bye.

Brother-in-law, these are all the data from the sales department.

You can check this chart for the link

of last quarter's total revenue and gross profits.

How come there's only one page for distribution and turnover?

Isn't there a cross-analysis report?

That's how I analyzed them.

I didn't know what else to include.

This shouldn't be all. It's too unprofessional.

You're right.

Don't you know I'm an unprofessional rookie?

I didn't say you're unprofessional. Why are you upset?

I'm just a rookie assistant.

These are the only things I'm capable of.

Okay.

I'm not blaming you. Don't be so sensitive.

I'm sensitive? You're the one who's sensitive.

-What did I do? -If you're not sensitive,

why are you keeping your distance from me?

You act all uncomfortable whenever I'm near you.

I'm just afraid you'll misunderstand.

Misunderstand what?

Are you afraid that I'll fall for you? Or are you afraid that you'll fall for me?

What's wrong? Are you guys fighting?

No, we are just discussing work.

All right, take a break. Have some apples.

I love apples. Thanks, An Zhen.

No problem. I didn't prepare a lot because I'm making something good tonight.

An Zhen, I forgot to tell you.

I'm going out with a friend tonight.

I won't be having dinner.

Okay, please don't stay out too late.

Okay.

Who are you going out with?

Kai Wen.

Where?

We're going to chat and drink at a bar near our office.

I heard he's a playboy. Be careful.

Cheers.

Two tequilas, please.

Wei En, are you sure you can drink?

Kai Wen, are you sure you can drink?

I'll show you what I got.

You're done for.

You'll fall for me for sure.

Two more, please.

There's something strange about you.

You get prettier every time I look at you.

Being pretty at this age is nothing to shout about.

I hope when I'm Ai Lin's age,

I'll be as pretty as she.

Why are you laughing?

There's a thing called technology.

There's only one way Ai Lin could be so beautiful

at her age, and that's technology.

You mean...

Here.

And...

there.

No way.

Hey, plastic surgery takes a lot of time.

Ai Lin doesn't have time for that.

Time is nothing.

I've done work for her many times before.

How can she afford it?

Money is easy.

I helped her take the company's...

What's the matter?

Why are you so interested? You don't need it anyway.

It's not for me. It's for my cousin.

I'm just doing it for her.

Hey, I'm telling you,

if you tell anyone

what I told you just now...

What?

I will...

...kill you.

Scared you, didn't I?

Cheers.

Sorry, the number you dialed is not available.

Honey.

What is it?

I'm going to find Wei En.

-She... she's not back yet? -No.

Honey, I'm sorry.

Why?

I'm so irresponsible, unlike you.

Wei En is staying with us, so she's our responsibility.

If anything happens to her,

how can I and my mom answer to her family?

Thank you so much.

She's been giving you trouble since she came here.

Sorry.

It's okay.

Be careful on the road. Call me if anything happens.

And it's cold outside.

-Wear a coat. -All right.

-You can really hold your liquor. -You too.

-Wei En. -Yes?

If I had known you weren't an enemy, I'd have asked you out ages ago.

I had fun tonight.

Me too.

Well... Wei En.

I'm going home.

Okay.

I was about to give you a ride.

No thanks. You seem a little tipsy.

How about you go home first,

and I'll text you when I get home?

Sure.

What am I doing?

Hey! Have you found Wei En?

No, I haven't.

Where could she be? It's so late!

Honey, should we call her colleagues and ask them where she is?

We must do something.

Do you know who she went out with?

Did you search the right places? Do you know where she went? Or...

-Should we call the police-- -Stop it!

Enough already!

She's an adult. She can take care of herself.

Don't you think we're being too nosy?

I'm sorry, honey.

I'm just in a bad mood.
