Episode 6

1
Dad.
What's wrong with your phone?
Why was it turned off?
- Where are you?
- I went down south to see a friend.
I won't be returning for a while.
All of a sudden?
Mom is sick.
What's going on between you two?
Take care of your mom.
I'm fine.
Don't worry.
I'll be in touch.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
You're the owner of the pharmacy.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
Why are you apologizing to me?
You came out of nowhere.
But I didn't hit you.
I heard you were badly hurt.
I thought I would visit you.
I'm glad you're okay.
I'm glad you're okay.
I asked you two to keep it a secret,
but what happened?
My parents betrayed me
and you betrayed and hurt me too.
Stop making excuses.
I'm really sorry.
I'll get going. Sorry.
I'm sorry.
Luckily, the wound isn't deep.
I'm sorry.
I got worked up.
Mr. Lin.
Have you considered the consequences
of kidnapping a police officer?
Once I find Sheng-hua
and confirm that she is okay,
I'll turn myself in.
At that time,
I'll also explain everything
about Hsieh Chih-chung's death.
Have you been protecting
Yen Sheng-hua
because you have something to do
with Hsieh Chih-chung's death?
Hsieh Chih-chung.
He should have died long ago!
What do you have
against Hsieh Chih-chung?
You've been a police officer
for so long.
You must've met a lot of bad guys.
But there's one type of person
that's worse than the bad guys.
They seem nice on the outside.
Hsieh Chih-chung
is that kind of scum.
What did Hsieh Chih-chung do?
Why do you hate him so much?
After I turn myself in,
I'll reveal everything.
Where is Hsiao-liu?
Why isn't he answering his phone?
Maybe his phone died
or he has no signal.
He should be here soon.
What do you think of this girl?
She's too conservative.
Do you think Mr. Chen
will like this one?
No.
- What about this?
- This one is not bad.
Hey.
- What?
- You know,
the Business Department
has a secret group chat.
We can make some extra money.
What? Make extra money?
Whenever they wine and dine clients,
they recruit low-level female employees
to drink and eat with them.
But you have to send photos
to pass the first round.
The manager
of the Sales Department said
that they have to hire escorts
anyway.
It's better to benefit
our own employees.
Really?
Good morning.
Good morning.
What's wrong?
You're moody this morning.
Who pissed you off this time?
I just heard
other female colleagues gossiping.
They said the Sales Department
recruits female employees
to drink with clients.
Is that true?
I don't know.
But it's the Sales Department's
business.
Why do you care?
Hold on.
Don't you find these men outrageous?
They use women
as tools to make money.
Seriously.
Mr. Chang often lectures
the Sales Department
to do whatever it takes
to make money for the company.
Their department
not only met this quarter's target
but also exceeded it.
Here's the thing.
The female employees
drink with clients
by their own choice.
No one is forcing them.
And Ms. Fang knows
and hasn't said anything.
Lo Hsiao-nan.
Last month's report. Hurry it up.
Okay.
- Hello. Welcome to the piano recital.
- Uncle, it has been so long.
Hello.
Take him to his seat.
- Okay.
- This way, please.
- This way, please.
- All right.
Darling, someone named Kuan Hsiang-li
will be coming to the recital.
He's the son of your dad's friend.
Take good care of him.
Welcome.
Yang Chia-ying.
I won't tell Lin Chen
about what happened.
I don't care.
It doesn't matter to me
what Lin Chen-hsi thinks.
Really?
I thought your friendship
had a fresh start.
So have you and Chen Chih-ling
not heard from Lin Chen lately?
Chiang Yuan.
Holy shit. What are the odds?
It has been so long.
It has been a while.
What are the odds?
Are you here for the recital too?
- You--
- Kuan Hsiang-li?
That's right.
Have we met before?
It's a coincidence.
I'll explain later.
There's an empty seat
in the front row.
Shall I take you there?
Sure.
- I'm heading in.
- Enjoy.
I just realized yours is a chain.
- Does it hurt?
- It's pretty.
The sales quota is stressing me out.
- I'm drinking every day.
- I just tug it.
- I'm sick of drinking.
- Really?
I can't keep doing this.
I even carried you home.
- Did you forget?
- Hsiao-nan.
We've been waiting for you.
- Gosh, you're all so hot.
- Hi.
No, you are.
The female employees
drink with clients
by their own choice.
No one is forcing them.
And Ms. Fang knows
and hasn't said anything.
Who is drinking today?
- You?
- He will drink for you.
- He's a man after all.
- It's about time to go.
Drink for me today.
All right.
- Do you like that bag?
- Yes.
I'll buy it for you sometime.
No problem.
- Really?
- No problem.
I heard Mr. Lin
is difficult to deal with.
Seriously?
He gets to his room
and wants to screw.
That's right. Didn't you know?
These few days…
I heard he has a bad reputation.
- He'll get drunk and fool around.
- Why did you buy this?
Throw it away.
- You look sexy.
- You too.
It's about time. We should go inside.
Let's go, Kody.
Can't you see I'm busy?
I'm quitting.
Are you giving up already?
Aren't you going to stick around
until your probation is over?
I can't work
at a company that belittles women.
Especially when the Sales Department
uses female employees
to wine and dine clients
to make money for the company.
I can't accept it at all.
What did you say?
Wine and dine clients?
Ms. Fang, you didn't know?
How did you know I was here?
I asked your colleagues.
They said you work here
from time to time,
so I came to try my luck.
Don't worry about feeling awkward
when you see me at work.
I quit.
Lo Hsiao-nan said
she's from a poor family,
so she goes to dinner
for the Sales Department for money.
You too?
At first,
the manager
of the Sales Department said
that he would help me
get a better position in the company.
From time to time,
I would go to their gatherings
and cater to clients' every whim.
I also saw my female colleagues
get taken advantage of.
My family isn't well-connected.
In the workplace,
hard work alone
without any connections
won't get you anywhere.
If I don't make compromises,
how can I keep climbing the ladder?
All your life,
have you never done anything wrong?
Of course I have.
I once hurt my best friend
in high school.
You're pretty. What's wrong?
Let me film for a bit.
ALEX: WHAT A NAUGHTY VIDEO
OWEN: YOUR GIRL IS HO
DICKSON: SHE HAS GOT SOME SKILLS
RYO: NICE, BUDDY
XANDER: LET'S HANG OU
ALEX: WOW, YOU WIN
RAY: SERIOUSLY, YOU WIN
RAY: ISN'T SHE THE DAUGHTER
OF THAT SOMEONE?
DICKSON: SERIOUSLY? WAY TO GO, MAN
RYO: RICH GIRLS SURE ARE FUN
Did you send our video
to your friends?
Didn't you promise me
that you wouldn't leak it?
There's no leakage.
They're my best friends
whom I grew up with.
It's just in the group chat.
Besides,
they aren't sharing it or anything.
Why did you lie to me?
Tell them to delete the video.
Are you seriously mad?
You're so pretty when you're angry.
Tell them to delete the video!
Is it necessary
to get so upset about it?
What?
When you were naked,
you could be filmed.
Now that you're dressed,
you're a saint?
I agreed that you could film me.
It doesn't mean
you can post it everywhere.
I didn't.
What's the matter?
Hey.
- All right.
- Don't touch me!
- Okay.
- Don't touch me!
How about this, okay?
How about this?
I'll send you
my friend's video of his girlfriend.
You know what?
You
and your friends
had better delete the video.
Otherwise, I'll sue you.
I will really sue you.
I'll call you
when you've cooled down.
Miss, please.
Give me another freebie.
- Okay.
- Thank you, miss.
I'll be back again to buy more.
- Bye.
- Bye.
How is business today?
Chen-hsi?
It looked like
that high school girl bought a lot.
Actually,
I gave them to her for free.
She said that she likes them
but doesn't have enough money.
She didn't seem poor.
I know.
She sounded very sincere,
but I could tell that she was lying.
You could tell that she was lying?
Intonation, cadence, and speed
all give indicators.
It's impossible
to tell a lie flawlessly.
Ms. Yang, are you okay?
What do you mean?
I don't know who found
these photos online.
Everyone has been saying
that the woman in these photos
is you.
Of course it isn't me.
How gross is that?
I need to use the restroom.
MOM
You don't sound happy today,
just like in the past.
I'm fine.
Right.
Has Hsiao-liu,
the one who was with me last time,
come to see you again?
No.
Is something wrong?
No.
Have you heard from Chen Chih-ling?
I heard that
something happened to Yang Chia-ying.
I have to go. I'll see you next time.
Okay.
Bye.
Yang Chia-ying.
CHEN CHIH-LING: OPEN UP! I'M OUTSIDE
YANG CHIA-YING! OPEN THE DOOR!
Yang Chia-ying.
Open the door.
Don't do anything stupid.
Open the door.
Yang Chia-ying!
Yang Chia-ying!
What should I do?
Everyone has seen it.
My parents want to cut ties with me.
Calm down first.
Then we'll come up with a plan.
There's nothing I can do.
Everyone will see the video
and it will never go away.
Yang Chia-ying.
Are you okay?
What are you doing here?
Don't pretend to care about me, okay?
- Yang Chia-ying.
- Don't you agree?
Lin Chen-hsi is here
pretending to care about me.
In actuality, she's overjoyed
because I'm finally broken and dirty.
Are you crazy?
Who would say that?
So should I be happy
that Lin Chen-hsi is concerned
as someone who has been through it?
But I can't bring myself to be happy.
For the first time,
I feel that I'm better than you.
Yang Chia-ying, Lin Chen-hsi
doesn't remember anything.
Who knows if her amnesia
is real or not?
Leave, won't you?
Don't be here, okay?
- Yang Chia-ying!
- Wait!
Let's give her time to calm down.
Why did she say I've been through it?
What exactly happened in the past?
Nothing. Don't worry about it.
When she loses her temper,
she rambles like this.
So don't take it to heart.
My mind is a mess.
- I don't know how to help her.
- I remember the day of the crash.
You called me.
You kept asking me to forgive you.
You said you didn't reveal
the secret back then.
I've been wanting to apologize
ever since I graduated.
A few months ago,
there was talk of a high school reunion
and I gathered the courage
to call you.
However, you said that an apology
can't change the past.
Because of what happened to your dad,
you apologized
to your teacher and his wife.
I could tell you were not
in a good mood.
I shouldn't have talked
about my past.
Did I see my teacher and his wife?
Why did I apologize for my dad?
I don't know.
You were incoherent on the phone.
So you don't remember everything?
What am I supposed to remember?
I don't know.
Chen Chih-ling,
why are you calling me?
I said I don't want
any contact with you.
I asked you two to keep it a secret,
but what happened?
My parents betrayed me
and you betrayed and hurt me too.
Stop making excuses!
Chen-hsi?
Mrs. Hsieh.
Did I visit you
on the day of my accident?
Yes.
Did I say anything to you
or Mr. Hsieh?
Just…
Normal chitchat.
Didn't I tell you that we are close?
Can I come and see you now?
Sure.
You're welcome to visit me anytime.
I'll wait for you.
- Okay.
- Bye.
Intonation, cadence, and speed
all give indicators.
It's impossible
to tell a lie flawlessly.
My husband adored you.
You were at our house all the time.
I guess that's why
your parents were very displeased.
You're the only one I can count on.
I heard you were home
for the past two days.
Why are you here?
Lin Yung-sheng
should be the one apologizing.
My dad won't come,
so I'm here in his place.
How can you do that?
Do you know how barbaric
your dad was?
I took my husband outside for a walk.
In broad daylight,
he rushed over and attacked him.
He even made him
fall off the wheelchair.
Don't blame her.
Come.
Sit down.
Mr. Chang said we don't need to pay
if we apologize.
My dad's orchard is in debt.
I'm sorry.
Will this do?
I don't blame you.
Go cut some fruit.
You haven't changed at all.
How have you been?
Come.
Sit down.
Come here.
Come in.
Come on.
Chih-chung, are you okay?
How did this happen?
Will you leave now?
You and Yen Sheng-hua
seduced my husband.
Now you're trying to kill him too?
Can you please let us go?
Do you have no shame?
I asked you two to keep it a secret,
but what happened?
My parents betrayed me
and you betrayed and hurt me too.
Mom.
Why did Dad attack Mr. Hsieh?
What was our relationship
with Mr. Hsieh in the past?
Why did Dad do this?
Do you remember everything?
Mom, answer me first.
What did you remember?
I remember going
to Mr. Hsieh's house to apologize.
I was crying.
I somehow ended up
on the street earlier.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
I also don't know why Mrs. Hsieh
said some nonsense to me.
Did Hsu Hui-chen contact you?
What did she say to you?
She said…
She said that Yen Sheng-hua
is the killer.
She said that Dad is helping her.
She also said Yen Sheng-hua and I
interfered in her
and Mr. Hsieh's marriage.
How can you believe
what that woman said?
I only remembered some fragments.
I can't make sense of anything!
Lin Chen-ye!
Am I right or wrong?
- Tell me!
- Go…
Go to your room first, okay?
Answer me.
What secret is this family hiding?
I'm about to lose my mind.
Let's go to your room.
- Let's go to your room, okay?
- Lin Chen-ye, tell me.
Please.
I'll tell you!
I'll tell you
what happened in this family.
Mom, you can't!
Lin Chen-ye!
Go to your room, okay?
- Go back to your room.
- I don't want to!
If you won't tell me,
I'll find out for myself!
Where will you go to find out?
I'll figure it out!
Let go of me!
Chen-hsi!
Lin Chen-hsi.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Yes, I won!
I was trying to avoid you.
Is that your excuse for losing?
You should be careful
when playing ball.
You should focus on your studies.
I only scored a bit worse
in physical chemistry.
It makes a big difference
in class rank.
Don't stay out too late.
Otherwise, I'll come
looking for you at the court.
- It's done.
- It's so pretty.
It looks delicious.
It smells good.
Close the door.
Let's eat cake.
This is the biggest piece.
It's for Yen Sheng-hua.
Mr. Hsieh, you're biased.
It's because her grandma
made radish cake for everyone.
Your grandma is too kind.
It's too much work.
Tell her not to make it again.
Let's eat the cake first,
take a half-hour break,
then continue with the quiz.
Go home when you're done.
Okay.
That's how serious Lin Chen-hsi is.
- Geek.
- Geek.
All right, dig in.
- Mrs. Hsieh.
- Okay, let me do it.
- Thank you.
- Not at all.
You should go to high school
and get into college.
Why did you go to nursing school?
I…
Do you really want to be a nurse?
If you're worried
about your grandma working too hard,
we can help you with the tuition.
Have you heard Eason Chan's new song?
Do you mean "Thank You"?
Yes, but I like "Your Backpack" more.
Nympho.
She's such a nympho.
Come on, Karen Mok is better.
- Did she release a new album?
- Which one?
[i].
Every song in it is so good.
But mainly, you have to work hard.
Pull your grades up.
Okay?
Okay.
Thank you, Mr. Hsieh.
Are you done? Come, give it to me.
Mr. Hsieh.
I can't figure out a few problems
on the monthly exam.
Can I stay later and ask you?
Of course you can.
I wish all students
were as hardworking as you.
If the discussion takes too long,
stay for dinner.
I'll call your mom.
- Thank you, Mrs. Hsieh.
- Not at all.
Get home safely.
- We'll get going.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bike safely.
- Thank you for the cake.
Okay.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Bye, Mrs. Hsieh.
Thank your grandma
for the radish cake.
Okay.
These two formulas
are in the wrong order.
If you swap them,
the result will be different.
I see.
No wonder I couldn't get it right.
Calculate it again.
Mr. Hsieh, the answer is correct.
I got it.
Very good.
If you hadn't taught me,
I wouldn't have gotten it.
Let's move on to the next question.
Thank you, Mr. Hsieh.
Tell Mrs. Hsieh
that I'll stay for dinner next time.
Okay. Be careful on the road.
How come my tire is flat?
I'll get the pump.
How long will that take you?
Come on.
Do it like this. Watch.
Go all the way.
You try it.
Of all the students,
I think you're the most special.
Study hard.
Don't get distracted.
Feel free to ask me any questions.
Okay.
Thank you, Mr. Hsieh.
Take a break. Have some fruit.
Brush your teeth afterward.
Mom.
Did you go to primary school
with Mrs. Hsieh?
Yes.
We used to be close.
Mrs. Hsieh is lucky
to have married Mr. Hsieh.
Mr. Hsieh has a nice personality
and is kind to others.
The two of them
are known as a model couple.
It's a shame
that they don't have children.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Mr. Hsieh has won
the Teacher of the Year Award.
You have to do well in class, okay?
Okay.
One more thing.
Don't hang out with guys at school.
Focus on studying
and getting into high school.
I know.
Mrs. Chang next door said
there's a flasher in your school.
Beware of strangers
to and from school.
It's best if you stay close
to Lin Chen-ye.
All right.
I'll be careful.
Eat up.
STUDENT PARKING
Hurry up.
Lin Chen-ye.
Wait for me.
- She's pretty.
- Your sister.
"Lin Chen-ye. Wait for me."
"Lin Chen-ye. Wait for me."
- Go back on your own.
- Lin Chen-ye.
Wait for your sister.
- Bye, miss!
- Bike slowly.
Bye.
Shut up.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Hello, Mr. Hsieh.
You're leaving late today.
That's right.
Sir.
I heard you gave out
archaeology problems today.
Can I have a copy?
Sure.
I was going to give it to you
at this week's cram class.
Or do you want to get it
from the office?
Sure.
Let's go get it now.
HSIEH CHIH-CHUNG
HSIEH CHIH-CHUNG
It looks hard.
You're so smart.
Settle down to do it
and no question can stump you.
Mr. Hsieh, you're the best.
You always praise me.
I'll be late for cram class
this week.
I have to attend
a last-minute seminar.
Really?
Mr. Hsieh, you're working so hard.
You have classes and seminars.
Mr. Hsieh,
you just helped us
review these few questions.
If I take the test this year,
I can solve them.
I don't have any children.
I think of you as my own daughter.
You know that, right?
I know.
Good.
Get home safely.
I'll see you on Saturday.
Bye, Mr. Hsieh.
Eat more vegetables, Lin Chen-ye.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Why aren't you eating more?
Are you not feeling well?
No.
She has been like this
since she came home from school.
She won't tell me.
Maybe she has been stressed lately.
Really?
Did you not do well on the exam?
Which subject? I'll teach you.
Dad, Mom.
The Physical Chemistry teacher,
Mr. Hsieh,
- he actually--
- I know Mr. Hsieh.
I ran into him two days ago.
He kept praising you.
You're smart
and take the lessons seriously.
Isn't he good to you?
Mr. Hsieh gave me
an archaeology problem set today.
Why do you get that?
Let me see it when you're done.
Mr. Hsieh takes such good care
of Chen-hsi.
Shouldn't we buy something
to thank him?
Of course.
Can I play ball with friends
this week?
Lin Chen-ye.
Entrance exams are coming up.
Focus more on your studies.
I can definitely get in.
- Worry about Chen-hsi.
- Pass the exam first.
Shouldn't you be taking lessons
at Mr. Hsieh's house?
He said
he's going to a seminar today.
Lessons will start later today.
I saw Mrs. Hsieh
at the market yesterday.
She said the seminar was canceled.
Hurry up and go.
You will be late.
Mom,
I don't want to go this week.
Why?
Mr. Hsieh is working so hard.
How can you slack off?
Your mom is right.
You've improved a lot
in physical chemistry recently.
It's all thanks to Mr. Hsieh.
Hurry and go.
Pack up and get going.
Sheng-hua.
Aren't you going to cram class?
I'm helping my grandma
sell vegetables today.
Did you ask Mr. Hsieh for a day off?
I…
I have to get going.
Mr. Hsieh, sorry. I'm late.
You're not.
No one is here yet.
I just got back from the seminar too.
Why are you drenched?
Didn't you wear a raincoat?
It suddenly started raining just now.
I'll get you
some of my wife's clothes.
You don't have to.
It's okay.
She went to buy snacks.
She will be right back.
Wait for me in the study.
Mr. Hsieh, you really don't have to.
Dry off first.
Thank you.
I'll help you.
Mr. Hsieh, I'll do it.
It's okay. I'll do it.
Mr. Hsieh.
Bear with it.
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Young girls
have picked them every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young girls gone?
Gone to young men every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?
Can you explain
what exactly happened to you?
Why would my daughter say that?
I just told you.
No such thing happened.
Why don't you believe me?
Did Mr. Hsieh
also do it to you?
Why did you approach Lin Chen-hsi?
I'll kill you. I swear!
Where are you going?
Yen Sheng-hua
just turned herself in.
I'm sure she killed my husband.
Will you keep this a secret for me?
I can't stand
seeing Lin Chen-hsi happy.
I want to ruin her. Okay?
