EPISODE 8.

Yu Meng, don't you think Grandma would look pretty in this?

I think you would look like Snow White.

Yu Meng really knows how to please a person.

Wei En, come and have breakfast. Let me serve you a bowl of soup.

-Thank you, An Zhen. -No problem.

Good morning.

You are really lucky to be allowed to wake up so late.

Mother, Wei En is really busy at work recently.

She also spent a lot of time helping me.

I'm still new to the Sales Department. There are many things to learn from her.

You have nothing to worry about staying here.

Everything has been prepared for you.

And it won't take long to help him.

Rui Fan, you're quite busy this week.

I will stay here to take care of you.

It's okay, Mother.

An Zhen is here, so you don't have to worry.

An Zhen still has much to learn.

She needs to take care of your father, Wei En,

and also that child.

Hey, didn't you tell me to stay at our son's house for a few days,

because you hate the smell of Chinese medicine on my body?

If it's for my son,

I'm not even afraid of the smell of gunpowder.

An Zhen, come with me to the market to buy pork brain.

-Rui Fan needs nutritious foods. -Okay.

-No problem. -I think you need pork brain more.

Pork brains can fix your brain,

and you need it.

They are a happy family.

What have I done to them?

Do you have time today? Come shopping with me.

There's a wedding for our teacher's daughter,

and I don't know what to wear.

Mother, this is women's stuff.

You should go with An Zhen.

I don't want to go with her.

She has bad taste.

Don't be too harsh on her. You should give her a chance.

Never mind. If you don't want to go with me,

I will go by myself.

Why don't you ask Wei En to accompany you?

She came back from the States, and she worked at a souvenir shop before.

She should have good taste.

I am not very close to Wei En,

-and she seems like cold-hearted-- -Mother, I will ask her.

She will go.

-Wei En, what do you think of this one? -It looks nice!

-Really? -Yes, and I've picked out a scarf for you.

This black scarf looks very nice.

Yes, and the scarf suits this blouse well.

-You look very elegant. -It's quite comfortable too.

-Really? -Yes.

$145.

Wow! It's too expensive!

I don't want this one. It's too expensive.

Although it's a bit expensive, it's worth it.

No, no. It's too expensive.

I don't want to waste money.

Wei En, thank you for coming and shopping with me.

No problem.

-These are the clothes you tried just now. -Thank you.

I can't believe I can wear these trendy clothes too.

I look ten years younger!

Older women in western countries even wear bikini.

Plus, your body is in a good shape.

-You look great in any outfit. -Wei En.

Did you eat honey today?

You are so sweet today! Thank you for your sweet words.

You're welcome!

Then you have to accept this present.

This is the scarf I bought for you.

A present?

This is the scarf I tried just now.

-I can't accept this. -Please accept it.

I'll be happy to see you looking great.

Really? Thank you so much.

She is so kind to you. Is she your future daughter-in-law?

-I know a place with tasty afternoon tea. -Really?

-I can take you there! -Okay, let's go!

I can't believe you could make my mother so happy.

It wasn't difficult,

because I did it for you.

I can do anything

if it's for you.

But I have no idea

what I can do for you.

I don't need you to do anything for me.

You really don't want anything?

No.

I only want your love.

I only want you.

I only want this short moment

filled with happiness.

I don't want anything else.

This entire day,

I thought of hugging you like this.

I only want to hug you like this.

Even after many years,

I would be satisfied

just by a hug like this.

You better understand, my brother-in-law.

Do you have to call me brother-in-law? I have a name.

Are you afraid

that An Zhen will come to mind?

I need to call you brother-in-law.

Only by this,

we won't forget about An Zhen.

But we...

We have fallen in love with each other.

But we can't be together.

Our love is limited to here.

But does this mean

we are not betraying An Zhen?

I don't want to betray her either.

But I don't know

why I can't stop myself from doing this.

Maybe love

is like a disease.

It sneaks up on you quietly.

Before you even sneeze,

you might already be sick.

So my brother-in-law,

we can't help ourselves from falling in love.

But you don't want this as well.

If our love

will only make us suffer,

would you be afraid?

No, I won't.

If you are with me,

I will not feel afraid.

But...

we can't let it ruin us.

We should also not hurt anyone.

So, this is only emotional infidelity.

This doesn't count as having an affair, right?

I don't know.

I only know that An Zhen treats me well.

I shouldn't take away her things.

So, Brother-in-law,

I only want one thing from you.

I just need you to love me a little bit.

Just a little bit.

Then I will be satisfied.

I don't know what I should do.

I think I have betrayed An Zhen,

and you as well.

But I can't bear to let you go.

I don't want to hear you saying this again.

The time we can be together

is already very short.

I want every moment to count.

I don't want to have any regrets.

Yes, yes. Here,

I feel sore here.

Use more strength.

Press harder.

You're pressing too hard! Softer please.

I don't feel anything now. Press harder.

Hey!

What do you really want?

You want her to press harder or softer?

Enough. Just play your computer games.

Massaging is all about alternating between pain and pleasure.

I danced the whole morning,

and went shopping the whole afternoon.

Do you know how sore my legs are?

I wouldn't have asked her to massage me

if An Zhen wasn't good at it.

Oh Really? I didn't know you could compliment her.

It was your choice

to go dancing and shopping.

You asked for it.

Mother, the doctor said you shouldn't dance anymore,

because of your old wound.

Wearing high heels to dance will injure your legs.

Please consider to stop dancing for a while.

I really shouldn't compliment you.

Right after the compliment, you want me to stop dancing.

What do you really want?

If you feel tired or bored of massaging me, just stop.

Mother, I am just worried about you.

Grandma, this scarf is so beautiful! Can you give it to me?

This scarf is very expensive!

This is mine!

-But I want it-- -Wen Yu Meng!

This is Grandma's scarf. Stop it!

Go and eat your fruits.

Grandpa, can you tell me stories?

Where are Rui Fan and Wen En?

Father, do you know where they are?

Huh? No.

Mother.

You go in first.

Why don't you go in?

It's okay. I'll go in later.

But it's raining now.

It's okay. You go first.

Good morning.

Hey.

Why did you want me to come to the office early?

I just wanted to talk to you about the transition after two days.

You are very proactive.

It seems you really want

the vice president position.

I want to finish all my work

before handing over the Sales Department to you,

or people will have something to talk about me.

Ai Lin. We are no strangers to each other.

You don't have to be so formal.

We became enemies, because of the company's policy.

I think the word competitors is more suitable than enemies.

Actually I have read your proposal.

You had a great idea.

If it is executed, our product will sell fast.

But being transferred to the Marketing Department like this,

I really feel sorry.

To be honest,

I don't really care about the position.

I even want to give you the position of vice president.

Ai Lin,

I know what you want to tell me.

Thank you.

But I think I can handle

the Sales Department by myself.

I have work to do now.

Okay,

if that's your choice.

Isn't there a transition today? Why isn't everyone here?

Manager,

before transitioning

Ms. Ai Lin sent most people here to go on a business trip.

She also reassigned the sales areas of the salespeople.

So there won't be

any salesperson this week.

Reassign?

Doesn't that mean that the salespeople will need time to settle down?

She did it on purpose.

Starting today, I am your supervisor.

I hope you all can understand my leadership style.

Whatever goal I set,

you all have to achieve it.

I will evaluate you all

according to your performance.

The team I lead

always works as a team.

I think there won't be anyone who would betray this team.

She's right!

So you all shouldn't betray our team, and work as a team!

Wasn't Ms. Ai Lin's speech great? Let's give her a round of applause.

Everyone in the Marketing Department,

we are going to start with our first mission.

Colors of life.

Play with the little girl inside you.

Kai Wen.

Do you think this idea will make money?

Personally, I think

the use of emotional appeal can arouse consumers' empathy,

and bridge the gap between consumers and the product.

This adds a more humanistic value

to the product.

So this is a creative concept.

Kang De, what do you think?

Have you finished talking?

I think making money or not doesn't matter.

More importantly, from years of experience in this field

and experience of observing countless people,

I believe this product

will become a trend in the future.

Then why don't you talk about

how much you understand me according to your experience?

Hao Kang De, the Heart Thief?

You can call me, The Player.

For an extraordinary woman like Ms. Ai Lin,

I think it is very difficult for ordinary men to understand you fully.

So do you think an extraordinary woman like me

is the target for this product?

Of course!

But Ms. Ai Lin is different.

You are one of the elites at the very top of the pyramid.

Those terrible women on the street

will never catch up with you.

So what is the gap between me and those women?

First, you are born talented.

Second, you have higher income, so you are able to spend more.

And of course, there is number three.

You have good taste, so you expect higher standards

from people, things, and events.

I see.

It seems you are quite a talker.

You are suitable to be sent to rural areas.

Do you think so?

Sure!

Thank you for you criticism.

But...

I said this because of my pride

as a salesperson.

Indeed, this idea

is quite interesting.

But as our star salesperson said,

the elites from the very top of the pyramid

with high standards, good taste, and high purchasing power like me

don't believe in perfect ideas.

There's always some space to improve.

I'm fine if you all think that I'm here to make things difficult.

I'm here just for one thing.

That is to squeeze out

something different from you.

I won't give up until I get those things from you.

This means...

all of you

have to hand in a proposal to me.

The deadline is tomorrow morning.

-Hao Kang De. -Yes?

I want to see all of the proposals on my desk

before 10 a.m. tomorrow.

Do you understand?

You are just impressed, but not touched.

Yeah, right! If a cold-blooded animal like you could feel touched,

I, Hao Kang De, would be a virgin.

You just like to make people suffer. Why put all the blame on me?

Everyone in the Marketing Department sees me as their enemy.

And I have to work till this late!

Anyway.

I just need to make a living in another place.

The world is big. There must be a place for me.

I am the man.

Let's go home!

You are being snobbish.

-Hey. -What is it?

We're at work.

We'll be in trouble if someone sees us.

There is no one around.

Brother-in-law, I want to drink your soup.

Aren't ours the same?

Of course not, mine is braised noodles

while yours is beef noodles. I want to drink beef soup.

Brother-in-law, your soup is tasty.

-Then I'll exchange it with you. -I don't want to.

I think it would taste better if you fed me the soup.

You are really demanding.

Come.

-Why are you so late? -An Zhen.

Where is Rui Fan?

He is working overtime.

Overtime? Then Wei En is working overtime as well?

Wei En...

I saw that they were...

No, I didn't see them together...

No.

Rui Fan is working overtime.

I don't know about Wei En.

Why are you so nervous? I didn't ask you to bring them back.

Come and have dinner.

I am really hungry after working for the whole day.

Kang De, sit down and start eating.

Okay.

-Where is Father? -He went out.

He needs to attend a lesson today.

-That's right, has computer lessons. -Hey.

We were waiting for you a long time.

You promised to have dinner at home, but you came so late!

I waited for Rui Fan.

But he had to work overtime.

Why did they make him work overtime on his first day?

Not all employees, only him.

What? Then why didn't you stay with him?

Mother, I am like his enemy in the company now.

How could I help him in front of others?

My poor son.

He is working hard alone.

Has he eaten dinner?

-I will play with you. -Come.

-I'll start now. -No problem. Quick.

-Which one do you want? -The big one.

Let me see.

-Which one? -One, two, three!

Kang De's car is still here.

I'm sorry, I told him I was working overtime.

You go in first.

I'm going to return you to An Zhen.

You need to treat her better.

That's because your love for me is the surplus love you give to An Zhen.

I didn't take your love from An Zhen.

So...

you shouldn't love her any less, okay?

Okay, you go in first.

-Take this umbrella. -Okay.

An Zhen.

Give me a little more time.

Let me enjoy this love for a while.

I promise you

I will end it.

Kang De, I'm sleepy. Let's go home.

Rui Xuan, just wait a little.

What are you waiting for?

Just wait a little longer!

My turn.

I'm back!

Huh? Who's that?

Wei En, welcome back!

Sit here, sit here!

Wei En, I was waiting for you to pick out my clothes for the dance performance.

I'm very sorry.

I ran into my primary school classmate on the road,

and I had dinner with him, so I'm late today.

I see.

Wei En, let me heat up a bowl of soup for you.

An Zhen, it's okay.

I'm still full, but thank you very much.

I'm back.

Why did you two come back one after another?

What a coincidence. You just came home?

Yes.

I'm going to pour myself a glass of water.

-Come here. -Ouch!

-Your turn. -Okay.

-Oh, no. -Yay!

What is it?

My brother.

I am just thinking that

a man in your age

is a bit too old

to learn some talents.

Can you give me some examples?

Like Abacus calculations,

gaming,

or...

lying.

I don't know what you are taking about.

Rui Fan.

Did you really work overtime alone today?

I am an expert

in having an extramarital affair.

You are still new

when it comes to such matters.

What is this nonsense?

Listen to me.

Don't play with fire if you aren't skillful enough.

Look.

If this family is ruined by the fire,

what will you do to save it?

Good night.

Hey.

Why didn't you respond when my mother was talking to you?

Which mistress are you thinking about?

I am not thinking about mistresses.

It's just...

Rui Xuan.

You should talk to An Zhen and tell her

to go to her husband's office sometime

with a lunchbox or something.

I did that before

to tell those women in your office that

you have a beautiful wife, and warn them not to step over the line.

But you said I was annoying when I did this.

You even said I embarrassed you.

Why do you want An Zhen to do this?

I...

I just want to say Rui Fan is more attractive than I thought.

No one is attracted to me now, but Rui Fan is different.

What do you mean?

You mean someone in the office and Rui Fan...

No, there's no such thing.

I am just saying we all need precautions.

Do you think every man is as bad as you?

Rui Fan doesn't need any precaution.

He is immune to affairs.

Rui Fan is also a man. Do you think he is that good?

Yes.

If there was only one man that I could trust,

it would be my brother, Rui Fan.

Which mistress is it?

INCOMING CALL, RUI FAN.

It's Rui Fan.

Hello.

Kang De is driving.

Do you want to talk to him?

Hold on a second.

Hello. What is it?

You can't sleep?

I am not your sleeping pill, and this is none of my business.

Basketball? What time do you think it is now?

Wait a little.

Basketball?

You want to play basketball at this hour?

Is this a secret signal?

It is not!

-We are going to play basketball! -Really?

Basketball?

Are you insane? Who plays basketball at this hour?

Oh, I see.

Are you really too old

to even lie?

Stop insulting me. I'm troubled now.

Then why did you want to see me?

-I'm going home if you don't tell me. -Hey.

I will tell you.

But

are you my brother, or my brother-in-law now?

Come on, man. Which one do you think I am?

I have fallen in love with a girl.

Okay.

Don't you feel shocked?

Should I?

Oh my goodness! I'm so surprised!

Why do I need to feel shocked?

But you can't tell me

you're immune to these things now.

Who is she?

I won't tell you.

Okay, okay.

I won't ask if you don't want to tell me.

What are you planning to do now?

I have no plan.

What about her?

She doesn't want anything, too.

We made a promise

that we won't have sex,

nor betray An Zhen

and destroy my marriage.

Won't have sex?

Did I hear it right?

Even idol dramas have one-night-stand scenes now.

And you are telling me you two won't have sex?

I regret telling you this now.

A person like you will not understand my feelings.

What do you mean a person like me?

Stop acting high and mighty,

trying to teach a carnivore like me

to eat grass like a herbivore.

I am not qualified to teach you a moral lesson,

but please remember what I have told you.

You have to be willing to let it go.

If you can't let it go, don't even try to start an affair.

I am confident I won't have sex with her.

In fact, I don't see her in that way.

That's why I said you are too naive.

It's better if you just want to have sex with her.

The worst are the ones who don't have sex,

and actually love each other. You don't know where you may end up.

Are you exaggerating it?

Of course not.

I'm talking about you.

You are a man.

For men, sex and love can be two different things.

A person like me

can go out and play with other women,

and forget about it later.

But you are different.

You are one of those that really fall in love.

What would you do

when you can't let go

of such important moments?

You need to know it is easier to get rid of a female friend than a mistress.

Don't tell me

you can forget about this affair.

I know.

You are Wen Rui Fan.

You don't see this affair as a game.

So I advise you.

Let's just stop right here.

No more games. Okay?

Okay?

I got it! You are annoying.

If you aren't promoted because of that woman,

I will look down on you forever.

Tien Wei.

Come back to work soon.

The company is waiting for you.

Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

I heard that hiring a person as young as I am

to be a director,

can put you under great pressure.

I thought so too before,

but your performance in the Hong Kong branch

inspired me a lot.

I started asking myself,

wasn't his grandfather the same way when he was young?

He started his own business.

He started acquiring other companies by the age of 30,

and got involved in the textile business.

He even owned a big steel company when he was 45.

It's not important who my grandfather is.

It's who his grandson is that is more important.

You're right.

The age of young people has come. Cheers.

Tien Wei, what are you staring at?

Nothing. I thought I saw someone I knew.

But I think I have mistaken him for someone else.

Was it really him?

I think it was really him.

But maybe

I should first call Xie An Zhen,

and ask her

how she's doing nowadays.

I can decide afterwards whether to tell her about this.

The question is

how do women look at this matter?

Do they want to know what their husbands are doing outside...

It has nothing to do with me.

Goodbye, President and Director.

Mr. Zhang.

I hope I can rest a while longer

to understand more about this company.

More importantly, please don't let others know about me.

Wait for me!

You can take your time

if you need more time to rest.

Just let me know when you decide to come back to work.

The director's position will be waiting for you.

Thank you, Mr. Zhang.

I am done for.

I stepped into the elevator where Mr. Zhang and the new superior was in.

They shouldn't have seen my face.

I'm done for.

You should take this car.

I am looking forward to your performance.

You need to make me proud.

I will do my best.

XIE AN ZHEN

Is this medicine really effective

for lethargy due to working and thinking too much?

Yes, come again if it is effective.

Okay.

-Thank you. -See you.

Thank you.

INCOMING CALL, MR. LAN.

Mr. Lan.

I'm pretty good recently. How about you?

After hearing the blessing words from you,

everything is going very smoothly.

I have persuaded several clients to buy high-cost insurance.

So I would like to invite you and your husband for a meal

to show my appreciation.

That's great!

You don't have to treat me to a meal.

My husband is quite busy, and has to work overtime nowadays.

I have an idea.

I'm free now.

Why don't you let me treat you to a meal now?

I have something to ask you, too.

I see.

What if...

Can I take my sister-in-law with me?

She said she wanted to skip work and come see me.

Of course.

I'll call you after I decide on the location.

Okay.

-I'm very unlucky today! -What happened?

I was in the headquarters,

and I took the same elevator with Mr. Zhang and the new boss.

The new boss?

Isn't that Mr. Zhang's son?

You are really outdated.

That person is our new marketing director.

But he is so young!

Yah, I saw them in the elevator.

Oh my goodness!

My wish has been fulfilled!

Hello, An Zhen.

I am going back to grab something.

Listen. I am so shocked right...

What?

That person wants to treat you to a meal?

Don't go alone, I'll be there very soon!

-Thank you. -Thank you.

What a ludicrous meal.

I'll start digging in.

Are you Mrs. Wen's sister-in-law?

Yes.

I'm sorry for forgetting my manners.

Nice to meet you. I am Wen Rui Xuan.

Nice to meet you.

Have we met before?

I don't think so.

I would remember if we had met.

Wait for me!
