(Smile Code)

(Episode 23)

Mr. Xu has decided on the band members and schedule.

The necessary procedures have been completed too.

The make-up team and hotel details

will be sent to the group chat.

We have set aside slots for interviews and pictures.

What about the venue?

Mr. Xu went to see it in person.

There should be no problem.

Everything is good about Xu Guan Rui

apart from being too meticulous.

Keep an eye on his progress.

Sure.

Hello, Mr. Xu. What is it?

(Gu Yi, the event's contract has been sent to the office.)

(Can you help me receive it and deliver it to me?)

Aren't you going back to the office?

(I hurt my waist when I was checking the venue.)

(I can't move now.)

Sure. Wait for a while. I'll come later.

(Let me send you the address. I'll be waiting for you.)

Mr. Xu.

Gu Yi.

I've waited for so long

for the best opportunity.

In the past, I used to think

that a reward that comes unexpectedly

is the most wonderful

just like how you came to my side.

So, I've been maintaining my utmost patience

as I just go with the flow with you,

but I missed many opportunities.

Right now,

I want to do something that I should've done earlier.

Since then,

I've never dreamed about stars again.

When you could dream,

you were a very romantic child.

Gu Yi.

As long as you are willing,

all the stars in my universe

can be yours.

Sorry.

Apologizing to me means you already have an answer in your heart,

right?

Mr. Xu,

you are a very important friend of mine.

You were the one

who was by my side

during the most difficult moments of my life.

I'm very grateful.

However, your position in my heart

is different from Liang Dai Wen.

I can't lie to you

so

I'm sorry.

I'd been protecting you for so long,

but I must still let you go.

It doesn't feel nice.

I know you will choose Liang Dai Wen.

However,

if he doesn't cherish you,

don't be softhearted.

I'll still be around.

You look pretty tonight.

Thank you.

Gu Yi.

Hello.

I am Li Ai.

Similar to Liang Dai Wen, I do barrier-free design as well.

His reputation has been bad recently.

I'm here as his representative.

Have we met each other before?

No.

However,

I saw a portrait of you before.

Let me tell you a secret.

When he was abroad,

he always drew you.

He drew well.

However,

you are prettier in person.

Why don't I steal a few of your portraits to show you

when you go to the studio next time?

Thank you.

Gu Yi.

This is Mr. Li Ai.

My partner whom I invited from abroad.

He is a professional in the barrier-free industry.

If it wasn't for his jet lag, he would be the main speaker today.

Thank you.

This is Gu Yi,

the person I like.

Yes. It's too bright. Let's adjust the lights.

- Let's go. Why are we still here? - Push me.

(Visual Effects Motion Capture)

Is this the faster method that you suggested?

(You should deal with it quickly. She has gone up. Have fun.)

Liang Dai Wen,

what are you doing?

Is this a proposal?

Don't be so full of yourself.

Sit.

I'm leaving if there's nothing else.

Ms. Gu.

Ms. Gu?

I just paid a seven-figure compensation.

My assets have been exhausted.

It hurts.

The room is expensive.

Sit for a while.

Are you

filming some kind of costume-changing videos again?

Have you

been doing well recently?

Very well.

- Not for me. - Great.

I watched many dramas.

What?

There was a sci-fi drama

where the male lead makes a robot that resembles himself

to protect his wife.

The wife and the robot live together all the time.

When the robot starts to have feelings,

everything becomes different.

After I watched it, I've been thinking.

I'm also a robot that you modified.

I lied to Zhang Qing Ya

and said you were just a wager between Shen and me.

Actually, it was wrong.

You

picked me.

The day we first met,

there were so many people in Ounce,

but you were only interested in me.

Nonsense. It was because you didn't laugh.

I don't care.

No matter what, you picked me.

I am yours.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Stand still.

Liang Dai Wen, can you stop fooling around?

Hello.

Gu Yi.

Hello!

Gu Yi!

Hello.

Hello.

Fine. What is it?

I am Liang Dai Wen,

who accepted hypnosis therapy abroad.

I know it was bad of me to leave suddenly.

You can scold me or beat me up

after I come back.

You can get angry at me or ignore me.

But can you

not stop liking me?

Also...

Also...

Can you not accept Xu Guan Rui's confession?

Give me a chance to make it up to you at least.

I think

I suddenly feel hungry.

Let's eat.

Let's go.

Eat.

Eat?

Eat.

- We'll serve your dishes later. - Thank you.

Liang Dai Wen,

how much did you drink?

A little.

Promise me.

Eat this meal quietly.

Don't cause trouble, all right?

Sure.

What are you doing? Put it back on!

Sit properly.

Here's the purple potatoes.

Here's the sweet potatoes.

You are where I belong.

- Shut up. - Here are your crackers.

Here are your scallops.

Here's my baby!

Shut up!

Sorry. I'm not angry at you.

It's fine.

Shut up.

Let's eat cake!

(Say goodbye to all your troubles!)

(Say hi to all your happiness!)

(My dear, happy birthday!)

(Every day is a wonderful day!)

(Say goodbye to all your troubles!)

(Say hi to all your happiness!)

(My dear, happy birthday!)

Keep drinking!

Bottoms up!

Happy birthday!

Cheers!

They said I've worked hard

and insisted on giving me a hat.

It's for you.

Come here.

Liang Dai Wen.

Wake up.

I'll leave you don't wake up.

What is this?

Are you sober?

- What are you doing? - Sit.

I have a gift for you.

Here you go.

What is this?

A gift for you.

Who allowed you to print my photo?

(Kids, let's play together.)

This is...

What are all these?

I was searching online

for gifts that make girlfriends feel touched until they cry.

These were the results.

What are these?

Health examination sheets.

It's a bulk purchase

for staff employees.

You are very unlucky

so I'm sure you get angry often.

I even added a cancer screening test for you.

The credit card

was applied with my ID.

The limit is your rent for a year.

The password is your birthday.

It's for emergency use.

You will spend,

and I will pay.

Also...

Also...

The most important thing.

I saw everything

you spoke to the camera.

This is my reply.

(To be with you.)

(I'm not going anywhere.)

(Gu Yi, I love you. I love you seriously.)

Tell me.

Why do you come back suddenly?

To be with you.

(Tell me.)

(Are you still going to run away?)

Are you going to go abroad?

No.

I'm not going anywhere.

(Liang Dai Wen.)

Are you being serious this time?

Gu Yi,

I love you.

I love you seriously.

Shen asked me to observe

my reaction the moment I could feel love.

I've been waiting for it.

Have you felt it?

What was your reaction?

I was done for.

The moment I could feel love,

I was done for.

I just want to love you right now.

The rest is meaningless.

Liang Dai Wen.

(Unlocked)

You're late.

I was

meeting a friend.

Friend?

Liang came back, right?

What are you talking about? I don't get it.

Are you pretending?

Do you think you can hide it from me?

Fine. You're great.

You are Mei Xia indeed.

I won't ask about

you two,

but I want you to tell me honestly.

Do you still like him?

I do,

but I'm no longer obsessed.

When I was with him, I always felt muddled.

I even felt a little self-abased.

I feel worried.

After he left,

I felt at ease instead.

Life is not just about love anyway.

I did my best to fight for it

so I have no regrets.

Although I'm happy

that he came back,

I no longer want to go back to the past.

What if you're not going back to the past

but start all over?

It is necessary

for people to make mistakes and change.

Someone might be slow in his journey,

but you are still his only goal.

Perhaps.

However, life is good enough for me now.

With Mei Xia in my arms,

let's live our lives comfortably.

(Lu Ming: Do you want to perform at Fuzzy?)

- Congratulations! - Cheers!

Sorry.

I can't help you out with Ounce's situation,

but you can use Fuzzy since it's empty.

Are you sure you're letting us use this place?

Of course.

This place might be small,

but it's better than how we were in 2014.

Do you still remember?

There was no one when Ounce first opened.

A girl wearing a wedding dress came in

and became our first viewer.

Later, we found out her fiancé ran away at her marriage

so she worked overtime until midnight.

Then, she wanted to take a wedding picture on her own.

That's right.

In the end, we became witnesses to her wedding with the computer.

I just started doing stand-up comedy back then.

I performed in mixed comedies.

It has been five years in the blink of an eye.

Do your best, young one.

I'll become your unreliable support.

Yu,

put on the sign.

Wait.

Mr. Lu.

Mr. Yu

is together with Guan Xing Xin.

I know.

Are you all right?

Of course.

Yu is my buddy. I feel happy for him.

I received many orders recently.

My ex-wife told me she would consider remarrying me

if I can settle all my debts this year.

I divorced because I was in debt.

I don't blame her at all.

I just want to go back to my daughter as soon as possible.

Fuzzy's comeback performance attracted many viewers.

Most of them were former viewers from Ounce.

The rest were young people from nearby residential areas

who stepped in coincidentally.

- Please line up. - They meet each other for once

no matter where they come from.

Welcome!

I'm very happy to see many new friends today.

There are also our regulars.

The microphone is a bit soft,

but there's no choice.

We have other residents upstairs.

We can't let them listen for free,

right?

Fuzzy was a bar.

When the shop was not in business,

the boss would rent it to drama club students

for rehearsals.

He did it not to make money but to have some peace.

Later, he told me

he didn't want peace anymore.

He felt lonely.

So, he rented the place to me

because we will have two stand-up comedy performances every week.

Great!

However, this is just in the early stages.

The performers still don't get paid.

Help me keep it a secret.

The performers still don't know about this.

However, I can guarantee

that we have the best performers

and best performances here.

We will surely bring you joy.

Thank you.

Hello, everyone. I am Gu Yi.

I've never performed for so long.

Thanks to Mr. Lu for giving us

another chance to perform.

There's something good about performing in Fuzzy.

Mr. Lu is running this place without a license

so he can't sell alcohol.

This has significantly decreased the chance

of performers getting drunk.

Of course, it has also decreased the number of performers by a lot.

I broke up recently.

He told me he was going abroad.

I asked him if he could bring me along.

He refused.

I decided to break up with him at that moment.

I don't like a man with such a bad taste.

Great!

Great!

The period when I broke up,

I almost lost my soul.

I did many ridiculous things.

I hit the tree when I was walking.

I rode a bike on the bridge.

I got sprayed by a fountain.

My mental status was so bad.

Soon, everything ceased

because I had a fever after I got sprayed by the fountain.

My friend also had a fever

because he was with me.

Perhaps this is what they call

a friend with a burning passion.

He was very righteous.

Later, I recovered but he was still ill.

He comforted me while lying on the bed.

"Gu Yi.

You mustn't treat yourself badly anymore.

Even if you can stand this, I can't."

Later, I borrowed a friend's motorbike

to travel around.

Riding in the city was great.

Bicycles were slower than me.

Cars were also slower than me.

At that moment, I let everything go.

I was thinking about saying this to my ex-boyfriend.

"Jerk.

You don't want me? People can't even pursue me if they want to."

Great!

I rode faster.

At that moment, I felt I was so independent

and didn't need love at all.

I was the purest and most superior woman who rode in this city.

Gu Yi.

I've been looking for you since the end of the performance.

I was drunk last night.

Sorry.

Have you realized this?

You've been apologizing to me since you came back.

Was everything you said

in your performance true?

Don't overthink. I didn't say it because of you.

I also won't make jokes for you anymore.

That means what you said was true.

Sorry.

- I returned to Dalian because... - I know.

Because your father was in a critical condition.

You had to go back.

Why didn't you tell me at the airport?

Because it was too sudden.

My mind was a mess.

I was already blaming myself for getting you involved

in Zhang Qing Ya's incident.

I didn't know when I could come back at that time.

I couldn't give you any promises.

Can you give me another chance now?

So, you chose to keep it a secret after considering it.

You wouldn't tell me honestly what happened

until the end.

I understand.

However, this isn't what makes me upset.

The most torturing thing is self-doubt.

After you left, I had been thinking

if I wasn't good enough for a long time.

That was why you could leave so easily.

Do you find it funny?

You were the one who had a problem,

but I thought I was unworthy.

You start having feelings now.

Your emotions have been restored and you have confidence now

so you think we can try again.

Your Alexithymia has never been a problem for me.

I'm sad that you don't need me.

To you, I am just a stray cat

who you can either pet or abandon

depending on whether your condition is good or bad.

You've come back now,

but you'll push me away again if you face a problem next time.

I know you are sincerely apologizing,

but perhaps

we are really not suitable for each other.

Liang Dai Wen,

live well.

Let's not meet again in the future.

Mom, what are you doing? You scared me.

You are scaring me.

Why aren't you eating?

Are you playing around?

I'm eating.

Did you argue with Liang again?

I didn't.

It's so delicious.

I'm sure everyone has heard this.

Besides being in charge of Nextmonday's content, our content department

also has to take over Yijia's content.

Gu Yi has been in charge of sub-journal previously.

After the merging of issues,

her position will be changed

to Official Account Editor-in-chief.

There's no change in human relations.

Submit the article to me for proofreading.

Gu Yi.

Congratulations.

Well done.

Thank you for nurturing me, Deputy Director.

You're welcome.

Ms. Zhang,

let's go and sing together after work.

Think of it as celebrating Gu Yi's promotion.

Go without me. I have a meeting.

I'll pay for it.

Sorry. I'm busy too.

I still have work to do after work.

You're still working?

What work is it?

You're working as soon as you get promoted.

Are you going to do stand-up comedy again?

Gu Yi.

You should go.

You are all colleagues.

Take a break

before you work.

All right. Get to work.

- Let's contact each other on WeChat after work. - Sure.

Gu Yi, are you really going?

I guess.

I'll think of a way to escape when the time comes.

Bring me along.

Boss, what if they found us escaping?

I sang so much that my throat hurt.

We just need to send the fruit platter.

You only need three words between colleagues.

Mind your own darn business.

Gu Yi, that's five words.

Three words. Leave me alone.

They mean the same. Learn from your boss.

That's right, Boss. I didn't tell you this.

When I went out to eat yesterday,

I met the devil and her ex-husband.

I experienced what's tit for tat in person.

When they broke up back then,

it was because Huang Wen Da had an affair.

Mr. Huang wanted to bring the devil

to Beijing as his partner.

Her salary would be doubled.

The olive branch he offered showed

that he still had feelings for her.

Did she agree?

She didn't.

However, who wouldn't go with such good conditions?

The fairy tale turned into her dark history,

but the devil isn't a pretentious one.

She puts benefits before everything.

If she leaves,

we won't have a good superior anymore.

You always call her the devil,

but you actually like her so much.

Everyone likes a superior like her.

She might be a workaholic,

but her ability is flawless.

Watching her is like watching Hong Kong drama.

I joined the company as an intern because of her.

If she leaves,

I don't feel like staying anymore.

After all, it's hard to find parking around the office.

Learn from me

and buy a bicycle. It's easy to find parking.

This is my gift for becoming a full-time employee.

Where are you going, Gu Yi?

Let me send you.

No need. BMWs can't drive into our residential area.

Go. I can get a ride on my own.

Sure. Bye.

Bye.

Why isn't my ride here yet?

I'm freezing.

Jacqueline?

Why are you so drunk?

Gu Yi.

What's wrong with your voice?

Didn't you ask me to join the team building?

My throat hurts from singing.

Come with me.

Let's go back to work.

What work? Jacqueline.

Don't vomit! Don't vomit here!

Stop! Hold it in.

Let me call a ride for you.

No need.

Zhang Jun Jie. Wake up.

Where's your house?

Miss, I'm getting off work.

Where's your destination?

Please wait. I'll ask her again.

Ms. Zhang!

Where's your house?

I want to send you back home.
