EPISODE 3
It's a personal vendetta.
You should just keep moving.
What kind of a vendetta requires torture?
It's just a game.
If you don't want to die,
make yourself scarce now.
I'm back. I'll handle this.
Hey! You've really crossed the line!
Right, so what
if you're the number one player?
You're way too rude to girls.
It's just a game. Why get so worked up?
Does being in a game
give you the right to be rude?
Or give you the right
to bully those less skilled?
Let's duke it out, as per custom.
It's three of you against the two of us.
If you win, take the man and leave.
We won't give him grief again.
You go rest. I'll handle it.
I'll watch.
Can one of him defeat the three of us?
I hear he's really good, though.
He's the number one player.
Would he really hit girls? You think?
Hey! What's going on? Who's duking it out?
What? Lady!
I took a shower,
and you're still hacking away?
Shixie, it's me!
Mianmian? What are you doing here?
I've come to help.
It's okay.
There is bad blood between us.
It's good to get it resolved.
Anyway, pretty girls are to be pampered.
How can I let you fight for me?
Hey.
It doesn't pay to be a good guy.
Let's go, Mianmian.
Lady, hurry up with the hacking already.
I still have 200 blood points.
I'll go do my laundry.
Will you be done by then?
You've got a mean tongue,
but you're kind enough at heart.
Fine. I don't want to waste money
on the internet and electricity.
I'll go collect herbs.
Let's go.
Wait, can't you unbind the Swing Rope
before you go?
Hey!
How did you know Modao Shixie
was in a compulsion loop?
I logged on this afternoon,
and he said in the public chat room that
he needed many monster skill books.
So I know Modao Shixie
is in a compulsion loop.
Why would a compulsion loop require
collecting monster skill books?
A variety of quests
also need monster skill books.
NPC quest givers are all different.
A compulsion loop requires collecting
monster skill books at Level 236
where the NPC is Wu Nandai.
I waited there for a while,
and he soon showed up.
You remember the level
and the NPC at that level?
Your memory is incredible!
By the way, you said you saw Modao Shixie
in the afternoon.
Why didn't you take him out then?
He was only at Level 205.
I waited until he got to Level 299,
the last Level.
Isn't it more impactful
for him to fail at the very last step?
Yes, you win.
Thank you, Naihe.
Don't thank me. It was my duty.
Not for that.
This afternoon,
I was rather upset over something.
I didn't show it.
I didn't want my roommates to worry.
But now, I'm all of a sudden really happy.
Because of me?
Because of you.
That's good.
Yaoyao, look over there. It's so pretty.
-Yaoyao!
-Yaoyao!
That hag, Luwei Weiwei, bullied us again!
-Yes!
-It's true!
Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?
Don't mind her.
We're about to join their Bihai Clan.
We can't be on bad terms.
We couldn't stand by
and watch her bully others.
You guys!
I have an idea!
The official site
announced a video contest.
Why don't we make a video
and get on their nerves?
What video contest?
It's using the game's
video recording function
and make a love story
with the "A Chinese Ghost Story" theme.
The topic is "Our Story."
Like a micro film, it can be any length.
The players will vote for a winner,
and the prize is great.
The winner will get
a seven-colored in-game couple's outfit.
Okay! Let's make a video.
We'll win,
and Luwei Weiwei will eat her heart out!
I don't think that's necessary.
Why publicize it to everyone?
The seven-colored outfit may be pretty,
but if Zhenshui is against it,
then never mind.
Yaoyao, you're the bigger person,
and shopping is always more fun.
We'll shop for more nice outfits.
-Sure.
-I should log off.
I'm meeting a cousin for dinner.
I'll be back.
-I'll be waiting.
-Okay.
The laptop is fixed. Check it out.
-Where are you going, Yiran?
-To the restroom.
Thank you. Um, can I ask you something?
Go ahead.
-Did Xiao Nai know that we needed help?
-Yes.
-Did he know that it's Yiran's laptop?
-Yes.
Then why didn't he come?
How should I know?
Well, the laptop's fixed. I should go.
Hey, don't be mad! Have a drink.
Don't be mad.
I'm only anxious for Yiran's sake.
Anyway, thank you for fixing her laptop.
I'll treat you to a meal next time.
That's okay. Thanks for the drink.
Yiran?
Leave me alone.
Your terrible idea backfired.
Now he knows for sure. I'm so embarrassed.
My mom was right.
Girls shouldn't be so aggressive.
We should be demure.
Don't be sad, Yiran.
I asked Yu just now.
Xiao Nai had to be somewhere else
at the last minute.
He's upset he couldn't be here.
We'll find another opportunity. Okay?
Really?
I promise.
Hello, Cousin Shaoxiang?
Little Yiran,
do you still want to go to dinner?
Not today. I'm not in the mood.
You should go, Yiran.
It's good to get a change of scenery.
Maybe you can pick his brains, too?
Fine. Then I want a feast tonight.
Sure! It's always a feast
when you dine out with me.
Let's meet at 6:30.
Pick a place and let me know.
All right. See you later.
Mr. Shaoxiang, my friends told me
about this restaurant.
I've been wanting to come.
Thank you, Mr. Shaoxiang.
You're welcome.
-Here.
-Thanks.
What's wrong? Why are you brooding?
It's nothing.
You should tell Mr. Shaoxiang.
You have a secret? Let me guess.
Boy trouble? Do tell.
Yiran, you should talk to Mr. Shaoxiang.
Maybe he can offer you advice.
Then you tell me.
Well, Yiran is fond of a boy
from our school's computer department.
We asked him to come fix her laptop,
but he was busy, so he didn't show up.
Is he not into me at all?
Is that why he didn't show up?
My little cousin,
have more confidence in yourself.
With your looks, personality,
and family background,
no man in his right mind
would ever reject you.
He's different. He's a genius.
He's no average guy.
He's rather quiet and aloof.
-Smug, is he? What's his name?
-Xiao Nai.
Xiao Nai?
That seems to ring a bell.
I remember now!
He's the guy in charge
of that company, Zhiyi Tech!
You know Xiao Nai, Cousin Shaoxiang?
My dad has been thinking
about acquiring his company.
Uncle is acquiring Xiao Nai's company?
We've been in touch.
My dad wants
to expand the online gaming business.
So he picked Zhiyi Tech.
College students' teams are cheap.
How's the negotiation going?
It's as good as done.
College students' teams
are lucky to have acquisition offers.
Why would they turn him down?
Will Xiao Nai be working for Uncle then?
Of course! Everyone on the team is ours.
Yiran, you can be an intern
at your uncle's company.
If the deal goes through,
you'll be working with Xiao Nai. Right?
That's right! Why didn't I think of it?
Cousin Shaoxiang, will you ask Uncle
to make me an intern at his company?
Why do you suddenly want an internship?
I have plenty of time anyway.
Ask Uncle for me.
Any position will do. I can do anything.
No, you want to be an assistant
with the game development division.
Right, game development division.
It's because of Xiao Nai?
I'm curious. Who is this guy, Xiao Nai?
Why would my super-picky cousin
be so fond of him?
Cousin Shaoxiang,
please ask Uncle for me!
Fine. I'm dizzy from all this shaking.
I'll ask my dad for you,
but don't blame me if it doesn't work out.
I trust you can get it done.
I think Huadun is nice.
Lots of money and no interference.
We already have a good R&D team,
but we're lacking in distribution
and marketing channels.
We have plenty of funds.
We should pick one with distribution
and marketing resources.
What about Fengteng and NetEase?
Those two are good, too.
Most importantly,
they offered us an olive branch.
Zhenyi Tech is nice, too.
You have a meeting, right?
Yes, their headquarters
is in Capital City.
We're meeting the day after tomorrow.
Next week, I'll visit
Fengteng's headquarters in Shanghai.
All done with business?
I have gossip to share.
This morning,
I went to fix Meng Yiran's laptop.
When she didn't see Nai,
she didn't even bother to look at me.
Yu, you knew this was coming, right?
Mei, it felt so awful!
You're always so good to me!
Get lost! You don't get to shake me!
All done with business. I should go.
You're not staying at the dorm, again?
When you guys wash your dirty socks,
I'll come back.
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.
I don't care, you have to visit me
in Capital City during the summer.
Breaking news:
Pecans and macadamia nuts are on sale.
Do you want any?
-I want two bags of macadamia nuts.
-Okay!
We got interview invitations!
-Erxi, why are you screaming nonstop?
-What interview?
Zhenyi Tech's summer internship.
I applied for all of us.
We got to the interview round.
-They replied already?
-I'll call you back.
Big corporations are great, efficient.
All of us got through to the interview.
Very wise of them.
The interview is the day after tomorrow.
Thursday. We don't have classes.
The interview will be held
at Zhenyi Tech's conference room.
Should we maybe dress up
like office ladies?
Are you kidding? We're students.
We have to look
like vivacious college kids.
Plus, they want interns
for the game development division.
We must dress like geeky girls.
Right. This is settled, then. Okay?
-Great.
-Uncle!
Yiran? What are you doing here?
Why? Aren't you happy to see me?
Yes, very happy!
No class today?
Dad, Yiran is very mature now.
She's hard-working at school,
and she's been asking me
to find her an internship.
Then I thought,
aren't we looking for interns?
So, here she is.
Uncle, please let me be an intern here.
So I can be here every day
and give you a shoulder rub.
You're welcome to come,
but I worry
it'd distract from your studies.
If that happened,
your parents would chew me out.
Don't worry, Uncle. I promise,
I'll manage both school and internship.
I watched you grow up, you know?
You've always been like a daughter to me.
Have I ever said no to you?
Thanks, Uncle!
Well, then. You can start as my assistant.
I'll show you around the office later.
Sure. I'll do as you say, Uncle.
Mr. Zhen, the CEO of Zhiyi Tech,
Mr. Xiao is here.
Have him come up. Have Mr. Lee
from investment division join us.
Got it.
Son, show her around the office.
-Help her get to know the place.
-Sure.
I'm not leaving, Uncle.
I want to start the internship now.
I'll be in a business meeting.
I won't bother you.
I'll serve you tea.
Please, Uncle?
Fine.
-I'll go get ready.
-Okay.
I'll stay, too.
I'd like to see
What is it?
Don't go back there, please.
It's weird with so many others there.
I'll be fine on my own.
Please! Go take a stroll.
I'll treat you to a meal.
Promise?
By the way, do I look pretty today?
Yes.
Can I use those mugs?
Sure. Help yourself.
This way, please. Mr. Li is here.
Hello, Mr. Xiao.
-Hi.
-Nice to see you again.
-Mr. Yu.
-Hi.
This way, please.
This way.
Mr. Zhen?
-Welcome!
-Mr. Zhen.
-Mr. Xiao, you're so young!
-Hello.
Young and capable! Come, have a seat.
Please sit.
Yiran?
I got a briefing
from our investment division.
I'm very interested in your work.
Yes, Mr. Zhen thinks highly of you.
He wanted to meet as soon as possible.
Thanks, Mr. Zhen.
Have some tea.
Next up, Li Xiaofeng.
Okay. Thanks.
Hold on a second.
-Thanks.
-Please wait here.
How come there are so many people?
It's a big company.
Everyone wants to get in.
Stinky Xiaoling! Stinky Sisi!
They refuse to sit with me!
They must be worried
that I'd outshine them.
Erxi, it's good to be confident,
but it should be based on reality.
-Et tu, Brute?
-Stop it.
Wait here. I'll go snoop around for info.
Two waters, please.
-Sure.
-Thanks.
Thanks.
Next!
Hey! Can I ask you something?
What questions did they ask you?
Like, have you played any games?
They also asked about your avatar handle.
-Thanks.
-You're welcome.
Well?
The rest is nothing,
but since we want
to get into game development,
they'll ask us if we've played any games
and our avatar handles.
What now, Weiwei?
Besides you, none of us has ever played.
-Go get Xiaoling and Sisi.
-Okay!
Our company
wasn't always in the gaming industry.
It's because my son is really into gaming,
and he'd blow a bunch of money on games.
That's how I saw the potential in gaming.
We decided to develop a game,
and it turned out to be very popular.
Our company successfully transitioned
as I happened to catch the industry trend.
RX is a good game indeed.
That was a historical decision.
Mr. Zhen is a visionary.
Real success
relies on having great products.
We've given it a lot of thought,
and we're so hungry for talent.
When Mr. Li recommended your game,
I knew right away
that there's something in it.
We're all technical people.
Instead of beating around the bush,
I'll get to the point.
We'd like to buy the rights to your game
for three million,
and we'd like you to come work for us
to finish the development.
We'll pay a lucrative salary, of course.
Well
The thing is, we're also developing games
with similar ideas.
If Mr. Xiao would direct the projects,
we'll be more confident with the result.
We will surely give a lot of thought
to the gracious offer.
We're very sincere.
Our company needs new blood like you guys.
That's right. Mr. Zhen is a rarity.
Nowadays, not many would be willing
to invest in college students.
Mr. Xiao, don't pass up the opportunity.
Right.
Good, I'll wait to hear back from you.
-Mr. Xiao, you go to Qing University?
-Yes.
What a coincidence!
My niece is also a student there.
I hear she's quite famous on campus.
-Do you know each other?
-I'm sorry. I don't think we've met.
You must be wholly devoted
to your studies and career.
It's fine.
Young people get to know each other fast.
We'll see.
Mr. Zhen, Mr. Li,
we won't take up more of your time.
Okay. I have a meeting, too.
-Xiaowang, see them out.
-Sure. This way, please.
-We'll see ourselves out.
-Okay. Thank you. Goodbye.
What do they take us for?
They want our life's work
with that crappy offer?
That's a joke!
They think we're that gullible?
And you thought about it!
Why? What's there to consider?
-I was acting.
-You were acting?
What the heck?
Why? Just reject them outright!
And that guy, Li something
Did he mean that deal or no deal,
he can use our idea anyway?
-I didn't misunderstand?
-No.
That's like hostile acquisition!
What do we do?
They're using irregular tactics.
So can we. Don't worry.
You're summoning your Machiavellian side.
Now I'm worried for them.
You're too kind,
but we need to pick up the pace.
Wait, Xiao Nai!
Did Mr. Zhen want something, Ms. Meng?
It's not Mr. Zhen. It's me.
Go ahead. I'll go to the bathroom.
Xiao Nai
Xiao Nai, my uncle's ideas
can be too old-fashioned.
If he's said anything upsetting,
please don't be mad.
Don't say that, Ms. Meng.
It's just a business meeting.
Maybe I can help you convince my uncle
and get you a better deal?
That's okay.
It may not be appropriate to do that,
given your position.
Thanks a lot, though. I should go.
I'll meet you downstairs.
That's the guy who's stolen your heart?
Poor and backward,
yet arrogant to the max!
Your parents would never accept him.
I don't care.
If I like him, my parents will accept him.
Plus, he's great. The more he is himself,
the more I like him.
Cousin Shaoxiang, help me convince Uncle
to work with Xiao Nai!
Little cousin--
No, I'll call you Lady Meng, okay?
Please, it's my dad's company.
I don't call the shots.
Then I'll convince Uncle myself.
-Got it?
-Yes.
If they ask about the game,
it's "A Chinese Ghost Story."
The server is Capital City Bests.
My handle is Luwei Yipian.
My handle is Yipian Luwei.
Mine is Luwei Luwei.
Weiwei, what's with you and Luwei?
They're all my subaccounts.
Use my subaccounts for the interview.
Tell them we're all roommates.
It's normal to have similar names.
If necessary, I can give you guys
extra training afterward.
Fine. Got it.
It's not rocket science, okay?
Show some appreciation!
Sorry. Please forgive me!
-Next up, Zhao Erxi.
-Here!
Weiwei, will you come with me?
-You're too easily rattled. Go.
-Come on!
-Bye-bye.
-Break a leg!
-Hi, I'm Zhao Erxi.
-Please wait over there.
Let's go.
Sit.
Mr. Zhen, it's for you.
-It's fine.
-Who's this?
Mr. Feng? I'm free.
Let's talk in my office.
Okay, then.
Next!
What?
Cousin Shaoxiang,
why don't we go sit in on the interview?
Whatever for?
I'm curious.
Know your enemy and yourself,
you shall win a hundred battles.
At least I can prove to Uncle
that hiring me is a wise decision.
It's just for a little while.
I won't take up too much time.
I promise.
Fine, just for a little while. Let's go.
-That's all for now.
-Thanks.
Mr. Zhen.
Don't mind me. Carry on.
Next!
Hello!
Have a seat.
-Are you Zhao Erxi?
-Yes.
We already have
your background information.
Please tell us about why you want
an internship with our company.
Because I want to improve myself
through real workplace experiences,
apply my learned knowledge
in development and innovation.
Your company started out
as a cellphone manufacturer,
yet you successfully transitioned
in a few short years.
That proves you are a creative
and vivacious company.
That's why I want to join you.
Any other questions?
You mentioned the gaming industry.
Are you interested in game development?
-I am!
-Good.
Can you tell us
about your experiences with gaming?
Which game or games
are you currently playing?
I've been playing
"A Chinese Ghost Story Online Game."
My character is a swordswoman in red,
called Luwei
-Luwei Weiwei!
-Luwei Weiwei?
Yes? What is it?
Which server are you on?
Capital City Bests.
Do you know me?
Oh, no. Did I blow my cover?
Is he Weiwei's friend from the game?
Darn it!
How come I got nervous
and totally forgot the subaccount handle?
I should've just made one up.
I'm doomed.
What is it, Cousin Shaoxiang?
You're all good. Wait for our news.
Thanks.
Next!
What's wrong, Erxi? How did it go?
It went pretty well,
except I made a little mistake.
A little tiny one.
This doesn't bode well.
I forgot the subaccount you gave me.
I was so nervous that I blurted out
your master account, Luwei Weiwei.
That's no big deal.
I'll give them my subaccount.
Thanks, Lady Weiwei!
Also, I saw a guy in there
who seemed really odd.
He was with Meng Yiran, too.
He's so good-looking!
But he seemed angry
when he heard the name Luwei Weiwei.
Could he be your enemy in the game?
I don't know. Who cares?
I'm just glad you didn't blow your cover.
-My turn's coming soon. Wait for me.
-Okay.
Nai, their office is huge.
I almost got lost.
I had to stand in line
to use the men's bathroom.
-Break a leg!
-That means
they have way more men than women here.
-Let's go.
-Wait.
What did the campus belle say to you?
Did she confess her love?
If you used your imagination
on game design,
-I'd be more pleased.
-Whatever! Drop the act.
She's been so obvious!
Did you say yes?
What a lucky day! First the campus belle,
now the department belle!
Department belle?
That's right. The one in the ponytail.
Her name is Bei Weiwei.
Last year, we had a campus belle contest.
She did well for our computer department.
It proved once and for all,
computer department has pretty girls, too.
Although the result wasn't ideal
and she only got second place.
No campus belle title,
but department belle is good, too.
What are you smiling at?
Bei Weiwei? The name fits her.
I should buy a lottery ticket today.
First, I'm lucky enough
to see two gorgeous girls in one day,
then I heard you
utter a girl's name out loud.
My life is complete.
Department belle is good.
Over the top is superfluous.
What does that mean?
Now, we wait for the notice.
We've got real skills.
I'm sure we'll be fine.
If the interviewers
don't know you're our roommate,
we'll have a better chance.
Come here, Xiaoling.
I promise I won't beat you up.
-Come here!
-Stop it!
Stop, you're too old for this.
What time is it?
I nearly forgot! I have tutoring today.
-I won't go back to the dorm then.
-When will you be done?
Today's a bit complicated.
Probably around eight or nine.
Have dinner without me. See you.
Bye-bye.
-Come here, you!
-Stop it.
Cao Guang!
You showed up!
I invited you. I wouldn't stand you up.
Come on, I'll take you in.
Is no one home?
Welcome!
What are you doing?
-Ms. Weiwei, welcome!
-Thanks.
Is Auntie out? Are you home alone?
She went out.
You're the English tutor
Ms. Weiwei mentioned?
Yes.
You don't look much.
You're not going to get mad with a kid?
I'm not that childish.
Ms. Weiwei, look at this level!
The game designer is mean!
Wait, let me introduce you.
This is Cao Guang, a rare talent
from the Foreign Languages Department.
Aren't you looking for an English tutor?
You can give him a shot.
This is Xiaoyang, my student.
Hello, kid.
I'm not a kid.
Didn't you hear
how she called me Xiaoyang?
I'm 12 years old.
That's two-thirds of an adult.
Ms. Weiwei, forget him.
Show me how to pass this level.
I'll check your homework first.
How did it go
with the exercises I gave you last time?
It was a piece of cake.
I finished it in a day.
-Amazing!
-You can check, if you want.
Let me check it.
Ms. Weiwei, I'm thirsty.
I want some coke.
Coke is bad for you.
I'll see if there's juice.
Thank you.
Wait here. He'll keep you company.
Me?
Has Bei Weiwei been your tutor for long?
Yes, Ms. Weiwei is exceptionally smart.
That's why she can teach me.
You don't look so smart.
Let's just forget it.
Is the way she knocked on the door
a code between you two?
You know Morse code?
Of course I know of Morse code,
but in terms of reading
-You can't read Morse code?
-No.
That's to be expected.
A simple language
that can convey all communication
isn't for the average folk.
You mean she was talking to you?
It's a coded message.
Sometimes, I'm home all by myself.
Ms. Weiwei taught me Morse code.
I'm not to open the door to door bells.
I only open the door to Morse code.
Interesting.
What did her coded message say?
I'm not telling you.
It's a secret between me and Ms. Weiwei.
Fine, secret.
Here, have some juice.
Ms. Weiwei, this guy said
he's too busy to tutor me.
-When did I--
-Plus, I don't want to learn English.
Xiaoyang, in order to become
a great programmer,
you must excel in English.
Can't you teach me English?
My English isn't good enough.
But if you don't like this tutor,
-we can find you another one.
-Okay.
Kid, I'll come see you again soon.
Work on your homework.
I made it much harder this time.
See you.
Ms. Weiwei!
What is it?
Ms. Weiwei, is that guy your boyfriend?
What's going on
in that little head of yours?
-He's just my fellow student.
-Good to know.
I checked him out for you. He's no good.
I see.
If he wants to court me,
I'll be sure to turn him down.
That's it.
But you're getting on in age.
You should fall in love.
I picked one for you. See if you like him.
Well? What do you think?
Is he perfect or what?
He goes to the same school as you.
You've got great taste.
But he's the most popular guy on campus.
He's out of my league.
Ms. Weiwei, you're a catch, too.
I believe in you. Good luck!
By the way, Ms. Weiwei,
will you bring your gaming notebook
next time for me to study?
Sure. Finish your homework first.
-See you!
-Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Xiaoyang's mom will be home
in 10 minutes.
-Let's say hi before we go.
-Say hi to his mom? Why?
Didn't you want to see his mom's car?
Otherwise you'll accuse me
of faking the photo.
It's okay.
I already deleted the post.
And I have to apologize to you.
I'm sorry, Bei Weiwei.
It was a misunderstanding.

EPISODE 3
It's a personal vendetta.
You should just keep moving.
What kind of a vendetta requires torture?
It's just a game.
If you don't want to die,
make yourself scarce now.
I'm back. I'll handle this.
Hey! You've really crossed the line!
Right, so what
if you're the number one player?
You're way too rude to girls.
It's just a game. Why get so worked up?
Does being in a game
give you the right to be rude?
Or give you the right
to bully those less skilled?
Let's duke it out, as per custom.
It's three of you against the two of us.
If you win, take the man and leave.
We won't give him grief again.
You go rest. I'll handle it.
I'll watch.
Can one of him defeat the three of us?
I hear he's really good, though.
He's the number one player.
Would he really hit girls? You think?
Hey! What's going on? Who's duking it out?
What? Lady!
I took a shower,
and you're still hacking away?
Shixie, it's me!
Mianmian? What are you doing here?
I've come to help.
It's okay.
There is bad blood between us.
It's good to get it resolved.
Anyway, pretty girls are to be pampered.
How can I let you fight for me?
Hey.
It doesn't pay to be a good guy.
Let's go, Mianmian.
Lady, hurry up with the hacking already.
I still have 200 blood points.
I'll go do my laundry.
Will you be done by then?
You've got a mean tongue,
but you're kind enough at heart.
Fine. I don't want to waste money
on the internet and electricity.
I'll go collect herbs.
Let's go.
Wait, can't you unbind the Swing Rope
before you go?
Hey!
How did you know Modao Shixie
was in a compulsion loop?
I logged on this afternoon,
and he said in the public chat room that
he needed many monster skill books.
So I know Modao Shixie
is in a compulsion loop.
Why would a compulsion loop require
collecting monster skill books?
A variety of quests
also need monster skill books.
NPC quest givers are all different.
A compulsion loop requires collecting
monster skill books at Level 236
where the NPC is Wu Nandai.
I waited there for a while,
and he soon showed up.
You remember the level
and the NPC at that level?
Your memory is incredible!
By the way, you said you saw Modao Shixie
in the afternoon.
Why didn't you take him out then?
He was only at Level 205.
I waited until he got to Level 299,
the last Level.
Isn't it more impactful
for him to fail at the very last step?
Yes, you win.
Thank you, Naihe.
Don't thank me. It was my duty.
Not for that.
This afternoon,
I was rather upset over something.
I didn't show it.
I didn't want my roommates to worry.
But now, I'm all of a sudden really happy.
Because of me?
Because of you.
That's good.
Yaoyao, look over there. It's so pretty.
-Yaoyao!
-Yaoyao!
That hag, Luwei Weiwei, bullied us again!
-Yes!
-It's true!
Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?
Don't mind her.
We're about to join their Bihai Clan.
We can't be on bad terms.
We couldn't stand by
and watch her bully others.
You guys!
I have an idea!
The official site
announced a video contest.
Why don't we make a video
and get on their nerves?
What video contest?
It's using the game's
video recording function
and make a love story
with the "A Chinese Ghost Story" theme.
The topic is "Our Story."
Like a micro film, it can be any length.
The players will vote for a winner,
and the prize is great.
The winner will get
a seven-colored in-game couple's outfit.
Okay! Let's make a video.
We'll win,
and Luwei Weiwei will eat her heart out!
I don't think that's necessary.
Why publicize it to everyone?
The seven-colored outfit may be pretty,
but if Zhenshui is against it,
then never mind.
Yaoyao, you're the bigger person,
and shopping is always more fun.
We'll shop for more nice outfits.
-Sure.
-I should log off.
I'm meeting a cousin for dinner.
I'll be back.
-I'll be waiting.
-Okay.
The laptop is fixed. Check it out.
-Where are you going, Yiran?
-To the restroom.
Thank you. Um, can I ask you something?
Go ahead.
-Did Xiao Nai know that we needed help?
-Yes.
-Did he know that it's Yiran's laptop?
-Yes.
Then why didn't he come?
How should I know?
Well, the laptop's fixed. I should go.
Hey, don't be mad! Have a drink.
Don't be mad.
I'm only anxious for Yiran's sake.
Anyway, thank you for fixing her laptop.
I'll treat you to a meal next time.
That's okay. Thanks for the drink.
Yiran?
Leave me alone.
Your terrible idea backfired.
Now he knows for sure. I'm so embarrassed.
My mom was right.
Girls shouldn't be so aggressive.
We should be demure.
Don't be sad, Yiran.
I asked Yu just now.
Xiao Nai had to be somewhere else
at the last minute.
He's upset he couldn't be here.
We'll find another opportunity. Okay?
Really?
I promise.
Hello, Cousin Shaoxiang?
Little Yiran,
do you still want to go to dinner?
Not today. I'm not in the mood.
You should go, Yiran.
It's good to get a change of scenery.
Maybe you can pick his brains, too?
Fine. Then I want a feast tonight.
Sure! It's always a feast
when you dine out with me.
Let's meet at 6:30.
Pick a place and let me know.
All right. See you later.
Mr. Shaoxiang, my friends told me
about this restaurant.
I've been wanting to come.
Thank you, Mr. Shaoxiang.
You're welcome.
-Here.
-Thanks.
What's wrong? Why are you brooding?
It's nothing.
You should tell Mr. Shaoxiang.
You have a secret? Let me guess.
Boy trouble? Do tell.
Yiran, you should talk to Mr. Shaoxiang.
Maybe he can offer you advice.
Then you tell me.
Well, Yiran is fond of a boy
from our school's computer department.
We asked him to come fix her laptop,
but he was busy, so he didn't show up.
Is he not into me at all?
Is that why he didn't show up?
My little cousin,
have more confidence in yourself.
With your looks, personality,
and family background,
no man in his right mind
would ever reject you.
He's different. He's a genius.
He's no average guy.
He's rather quiet and aloof.
-Smug, is he? What's his name?
-Xiao Nai.
Xiao Nai?
That seems to ring a bell.
I remember now!
He's the guy in charge
of that company, Zhiyi Tech!
You know Xiao Nai, Cousin Shaoxiang?
My dad has been thinking
about acquiring his company.
Uncle is acquiring Xiao Nai's company?
We've been in touch.
My dad wants
to expand the online gaming business.
So he picked Zhiyi Tech.
College students' teams are cheap.
How's the negotiation going?
It's as good as done.
College students' teams
are lucky to have acquisition offers.
Why would they turn him down?
Will Xiao Nai be working for Uncle then?
Of course! Everyone on the team is ours.
Yiran, you can be an intern
at your uncle's company.
If the deal goes through,
you'll be working with Xiao Nai. Right?
That's right! Why didn't I think of it?
Cousin Shaoxiang, will you ask Uncle
to make me an intern at his company?
Why do you suddenly want an internship?
I have plenty of time anyway.
Ask Uncle for me.
Any position will do. I can do anything.
No, you want to be an assistant
with the game development division.
Right, game development division.
It's because of Xiao Nai?
I'm curious. Who is this guy, Xiao Nai?
Why would my super-picky cousin
be so fond of him?
Cousin Shaoxiang,
please ask Uncle for me!
Fine. I'm dizzy from all this shaking.
I'll ask my dad for you,
but don't blame me if it doesn't work out.
I trust you can get it done.
I think Huadun is nice.
Lots of money and no interference.
We already have a good R&D team,
but we're lacking in distribution
and marketing channels.
We have plenty of funds.
We should pick one with distribution
and marketing resources.
What about Fengteng and NetEase?
Those two are good, too.
Most importantly,
they offered us an olive branch.
Zhenyi Tech is nice, too.
You have a meeting, right?
Yes, their headquarters
is in Capital City.
We're meeting the day after tomorrow.
Next week, I'll visit
Fengteng's headquarters in Shanghai.
All done with business?
I have gossip to share.
This morning,
I went to fix Meng Yiran's laptop.
When she didn't see Nai,
she didn't even bother to look at me.
Yu, you knew this was coming, right?
Mei, it felt so awful!
You're always so good to me!
Get lost! You don't get to shake me!
All done with business. I should go.
You're not staying at the dorm, again?
When you guys wash your dirty socks,
I'll come back.
-Bye-bye.
-Bye.
I don't care, you have to visit me
in Capital City during the summer.
Breaking news:
Pecans and macadamia nuts are on sale.
Do you want any?
-I want two bags of macadamia nuts.
-Okay!
We got interview invitations!
-Erxi, why are you screaming nonstop?
-What interview?
Zhenyi Tech's summer internship.
I applied for all of us.
We got to the interview round.
-They replied already?
-I'll call you back.
Big corporations are great, efficient.
All of us got through to the interview.
Very wise of them.
The interview is the day after tomorrow.
Thursday. We don't have classes.
The interview will be held
at Zhenyi Tech's conference room.
Should we maybe dress up
like office ladies?
Are you kidding? We're students.
We have to look
like vivacious college kids.
Plus, they want interns
for the game development division.
We must dress like geeky girls.
Right. This is settled, then. Okay?
-Great.
-Uncle!
Yiran? What are you doing here?
Why? Aren't you happy to see me?
Yes, very happy!
No class today?
Dad, Yiran is very mature now.
She's hard-working at school,
and she's been asking me
to find her an internship.
Then I thought,
aren't we looking for interns?
So, here she is.
Uncle, please let me be an intern here.
So I can be here every day
and give you a shoulder rub.
You're welcome to come,
but I worry
it'd distract from your studies.
If that happened,
your parents would chew me out.
Don't worry, Uncle. I promise,
I'll manage both school and internship.
I watched you grow up, you know?
You've always been like a daughter to me.
Have I ever said no to you?
Thanks, Uncle!
Well, then. You can start as my assistant.
I'll show you around the office later.
Sure. I'll do as you say, Uncle.
Mr. Zhen, the CEO of Zhiyi Tech,
Mr. Xiao is here.
Have him come up. Have Mr. Lee
from investment division join us.
Got it.
Son, show her around the office.
-Help her get to know the place.
-Sure.
I'm not leaving, Uncle.
I want to start the internship now.
I'll be in a business meeting.
I won't bother you.
I'll serve you tea.
Please, Uncle?
Fine.
-I'll go get ready.
-Okay.
I'll stay, too.
I'd like to see
What is it?
Don't go back there, please.
It's weird with so many others there.
I'll be fine on my own.
Please! Go take a stroll.
I'll treat you to a meal.
Promise?
By the way, do I look pretty today?
Yes.
Can I use those mugs?
Sure. Help yourself.
This way, please. Mr. Li is here.
Hello, Mr. Xiao.
-Hi.
-Nice to see you again.
-Mr. Yu.
-Hi.
This way, please.
This way.
Mr. Zhen?
-Welcome!
-Mr. Zhen.
-Mr. Xiao, you're so young!
-Hello.
Young and capable! Come, have a seat.
Please sit.
Yiran?
I got a briefing
from our investment division.
I'm very interested in your work.
Yes, Mr. Zhen thinks highly of you.
He wanted to meet as soon as possible.
Thanks, Mr. Zhen.
Have some tea.
Next up, Li Xiaofeng.
Okay. Thanks.
Hold on a second.
-Thanks.
-Please wait here.
How come there are so many people?
It's a big company.
Everyone wants to get in.
Stinky Xiaoling! Stinky Sisi!
They refuse to sit with me!
They must be worried
that I'd outshine them.
Erxi, it's good to be confident,
but it should be based on reality.
-Et tu, Brute?
-Stop it.
Wait here. I'll go snoop around for info.
Two waters, please.
-Sure.
-Thanks.
Thanks.
Next!
Hey! Can I ask you something?
What questions did they ask you?
Like, have you played any games?
They also asked about your avatar handle.
-Thanks.
-You're welcome.
Well?
The rest is nothing,
but since we want
to get into game development,
they'll ask us if we've played any games
and our avatar handles.
What now, Weiwei?
Besides you, none of us has ever played.
-Go get Xiaoling and Sisi.
-Okay!
Our company
wasn't always in the gaming industry.
It's because my son is really into gaming,
and he'd blow a bunch of money on games.
That's how I saw the potential in gaming.
We decided to develop a game,
and it turned out to be very popular.
Our company successfully transitioned
as I happened to catch the industry trend.
RX is a good game indeed.
That was a historical decision.
Mr. Zhen is a visionary.
Real success
relies on having great products.
We've given it a lot of thought,
and we're so hungry for talent.
When Mr. Li recommended your game,
I knew right away
that there's something in it.
We're all technical people.
Instead of beating around the bush,
I'll get to the point.
We'd like to buy the rights to your game
for three million,
and we'd like you to come work for us
to finish the development.
We'll pay a lucrative salary, of course.
Well
The thing is, we're also developing games
with similar ideas.
If Mr. Xiao would direct the projects,
we'll be more confident with the result.
We will surely give a lot of thought
to the gracious offer.
We're very sincere.
Our company needs new blood like you guys.
That's right. Mr. Zhen is a rarity.
Nowadays, not many would be willing
to invest in college students.
Mr. Xiao, don't pass up the opportunity.
Right.
Good, I'll wait to hear back from you.
-Mr. Xiao, you go to Qing University?
-Yes.
What a coincidence!
My niece is also a student there.
I hear she's quite famous on campus.
-Do you know each other?
-I'm sorry. I don't think we've met.
You must be wholly devoted
to your studies and career.
It's fine.
Young people get to know each other fast.
We'll see.
Mr. Zhen, Mr. Li,
we won't take up more of your time.
Okay. I have a meeting, too.
-Xiaowang, see them out.
-Sure. This way, please.
-We'll see ourselves out.
-Okay. Thank you. Goodbye.
What do they take us for?
They want our life's work
with that crappy offer?
That's a joke!
They think we're that gullible?
And you thought about it!
Why? What's there to consider?
-I was acting.
-You were acting?
What the heck?
Why? Just reject them outright!
And that guy, Li something
Did he mean that deal or no deal,
he can use our idea anyway?
-I didn't misunderstand?
-No.
That's like hostile acquisition!
What do we do?
They're using irregular tactics.
So can we. Don't worry.
You're summoning your Machiavellian side.
Now I'm worried for them.
You're too kind,
but we need to pick up the pace.
Wait, Xiao Nai!
Did Mr. Zhen want something, Ms. Meng?
It's not Mr. Zhen. It's me.
Go ahead. I'll go to the bathroom.
Xiao Nai
Xiao Nai, my uncle's ideas
can be too old-fashioned.
If he's said anything upsetting,
please don't be mad.
Don't say that, Ms. Meng.
It's just a business meeting.
Maybe I can help you convince my uncle
and get you a better deal?
That's okay.
It may not be appropriate to do that,
given your position.
Thanks a lot, though. I should go.
I'll meet you downstairs.
That's the guy who's stolen your heart?
Poor and backward,
yet arrogant to the max!
Your parents would never accept him.
I don't care.
If I like him, my parents will accept him.
Plus, he's great. The more he is himself,
the more I like him.
Cousin Shaoxiang, help me convince Uncle
to work with Xiao Nai!
Little cousin--
No, I'll call you Lady Meng, okay?
Please, it's my dad's company.
I don't call the shots.
Then I'll convince Uncle myself.
-Got it?
-Yes.
If they ask about the game,
it's "A Chinese Ghost Story."
The server is Capital City Bests.
My handle is Luwei Yipian.
My handle is Yipian Luwei.
Mine is Luwei Luwei.
Weiwei, what's with you and Luwei?
They're all my subaccounts.
Use my subaccounts for the interview.
Tell them we're all roommates.
It's normal to have similar names.
If necessary, I can give you guys
extra training afterward.
Fine. Got it.
It's not rocket science, okay?
Show some appreciation!
Sorry. Please forgive me!
-Next up, Zhao Erxi.
-Here!
Weiwei, will you come with me?
-You're too easily rattled. Go.
-Come on!
-Bye-bye.
-Break a leg!
-Hi, I'm Zhao Erxi.
-Please wait over there.
Let's go.
Sit.
Mr. Zhen, it's for you.
-It's fine.
-Who's this?
Mr. Feng? I'm free.
Let's talk in my office.
Okay, then.
Next!
What?
Cousin Shaoxiang,
why don't we go sit in on the interview?
Whatever for?
I'm curious.
Know your enemy and yourself,
you shall win a hundred battles.
At least I can prove to Uncle
that hiring me is a wise decision.
It's just for a little while.
I won't take up too much time.
I promise.
Fine, just for a little while. Let's go.
-That's all for now.
-Thanks.
Mr. Zhen.
Don't mind me. Carry on.
Next!
Hello!
Have a seat.
-Are you Zhao Erxi?
-Yes.
We already have
your background information.
Please tell us about why you want
an internship with our company.
Because I want to improve myself
through real workplace experiences,
apply my learned knowledge
in development and innovation.
Your company started out
as a cellphone manufacturer,
yet you successfully transitioned
in a few short years.
That proves you are a creative
and vivacious company.
That's why I want to join you.
Any other questions?
You mentioned the gaming industry.
Are you interested in game development?
-I am!
-Good.
Can you tell us
about your experiences with gaming?
Which game or games
are you currently playing?
I've been playing
"A Chinese Ghost Story Online Game."
My character is a swordswoman in red,
called Luwei
-Luwei Weiwei!
-Luwei Weiwei?
Yes? What is it?
Which server are you on?
Capital City Bests.
Do you know me?
Oh, no. Did I blow my cover?
Is he Weiwei's friend from the game?
Darn it!
How come I got nervous
and totally forgot the subaccount handle?
I should've just made one up.
I'm doomed.
What is it, Cousin Shaoxiang?
You're all good. Wait for our news.
Thanks.
Next!
What's wrong, Erxi? How did it go?
It went pretty well,
except I made a little mistake.
A little tiny one.
This doesn't bode well.
I forgot the subaccount you gave me.
I was so nervous that I blurted out
your master account, Luwei Weiwei.
That's no big deal.
I'll give them my subaccount.
Thanks, Lady Weiwei!
Also, I saw a guy in there
who seemed really odd.
He was with Meng Yiran, too.
He's so good-looking!
But he seemed angry
when he heard the name Luwei Weiwei.
Could he be your enemy in the game?
I don't know. Who cares?
I'm just glad you didn't blow your cover.
-My turn's coming soon. Wait for me.
-Okay.
Nai, their office is huge.
I almost got lost.
I had to stand in line
to use the men's bathroom.
-Break a leg!
-That means
they have way more men than women here.
-Let's go.
-Wait.
What did the campus belle say to you?
Did she confess her love?
If you used your imagination
on game design,
-I'd be more pleased.
-Whatever! Drop the act.
She's been so obvious!
Did you say yes?
What a lucky day! First the campus belle,
now the department belle!
Department belle?
That's right. The one in the ponytail.
Her name is Bei Weiwei.
Last year, we had a campus belle contest.
She did well for our computer department.
It proved once and for all,
computer department has pretty girls, too.
Although the result wasn't ideal
and she only got second place.
No campus belle title,
but department belle is good, too.
What are you smiling at?
Bei Weiwei? The name fits her.
I should buy a lottery ticket today.
First, I'm lucky enough
to see two gorgeous girls in one day,
then I heard you
utter a girl's name out loud.
My life is complete.
Department belle is good.
Over the top is superfluous.
What does that mean?
Now, we wait for the notice.
We've got real skills.
I'm sure we'll be fine.
If the interviewers
don't know you're our roommate,
we'll have a better chance.
Come here, Xiaoling.
I promise I won't beat you up.
-Come here!
-Stop it!
Stop, you're too old for this.
What time is it?
I nearly forgot! I have tutoring today.
-I won't go back to the dorm then.
-When will you be done?
Today's a bit complicated.
Probably around eight or nine.
Have dinner without me. See you.
Bye-bye.
-Come here, you!
-Stop it.
Cao Guang!
You showed up!
I invited you. I wouldn't stand you up.
Come on, I'll take you in.
Is no one home?
Welcome!
What are you doing?
-Ms. Weiwei, welcome!
-Thanks.
Is Auntie out? Are you home alone?
She went out.
You're the English tutor
Ms. Weiwei mentioned?
Yes.
You don't look much.
You're not going to get mad with a kid?
I'm not that childish.
Ms. Weiwei, look at this level!
The game designer is mean!
Wait, let me introduce you.
This is Cao Guang, a rare talent
from the Foreign Languages Department.
Aren't you looking for an English tutor?
You can give him a shot.
This is Xiaoyang, my student.
Hello, kid.
I'm not a kid.
Didn't you hear
how she called me Xiaoyang?
I'm 12 years old.
That's two-thirds of an adult.
Ms. Weiwei, forget him.
Show me how to pass this level.
I'll check your homework first.
How did it go
with the exercises I gave you last time?
It was a piece of cake.
I finished it in a day.
-Amazing!
-You can check, if you want.
Let me check it.
Ms. Weiwei, I'm thirsty.
I want some coke.
Coke is bad for you.
I'll see if there's juice.
Thank you.
Wait here. He'll keep you company.
Me?
Has Bei Weiwei been your tutor for long?
Yes, Ms. Weiwei is exceptionally smart.
That's why she can teach me.
You don't look so smart.
Let's just forget it.
Is the way she knocked on the door
a code between you two?
You know Morse code?
Of course I know of Morse code,
but in terms of reading
-You can't read Morse code?
-No.
That's to be expected.
A simple language
that can convey all communication
isn't for the average folk.
You mean she was talking to you?
It's a coded message.
Sometimes, I'm home all by myself.
Ms. Weiwei taught me Morse code.
I'm not to open the door to door bells.
I only open the door to Morse code.
Interesting.
What did her coded message say?
I'm not telling you.
It's a secret between me and Ms. Weiwei.
Fine, secret.
Here, have some juice.
Ms. Weiwei, this guy said
he's too busy to tutor me.
-When did I--
-Plus, I don't want to learn English.
Xiaoyang, in order to become
a great programmer,
you must excel in English.
Can't you teach me English?
My English isn't good enough.
But if you don't like this tutor,
-we can find you another one.
-Okay.
Kid, I'll come see you again soon.
Work on your homework.
I made it much harder this time.
See you.
Ms. Weiwei!
What is it?
Ms. Weiwei, is that guy your boyfriend?
What's going on
in that little head of yours?
-He's just my fellow student.
-Good to know.
I checked him out for you. He's no good.
I see.
If he wants to court me,
I'll be sure to turn him down.
That's it.
But you're getting on in age.
You should fall in love.
I picked one for you. See if you like him.
Well? What do you think?
Is he perfect or what?
He goes to the same school as you.
You've got great taste.
But he's the most popular guy on campus.
He's out of my league.
Ms. Weiwei, you're a catch, too.
I believe in you. Good luck!
By the way, Ms. Weiwei,
will you bring your gaming notebook
next time for me to study?
Sure. Finish your homework first.
-See you!
-Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Xiaoyang's mom will be home
in 10 minutes.
-Let's say hi before we go.
-Say hi to his mom? Why?
Didn't you want to see his mom's car?
Otherwise you'll accuse me
of faking the photo.
It's okay.
I already deleted the post.
And I have to apologize to you.
I'm sorry, Bei Weiwei.
It was a misunderstanding.
