Episode 19
Here are your cakes.
Thanks.
Please enjoy.
Why are you still here?
I paid for the coffee.
Just leave!
Take care. They may sue you for sexual harassment.
No.
Girls.
There is a pervert over there,
drawing you secretly.
Shall I call the police?
Is your waist is so slender?
Your legs are really long.
Are you that pretty?
We look so good in this drawing.
Sir, are you a painter?
No, I do human sculptures.
Then you are the artist.
I'm still unworthy of being called an artist.
Are you taking us
as your models?
Your girls have good physical conditions
with standard body proportions.
Really?
Why are you following me?
Brother Ziqiu!
Who's your brother?
I'm telling you,
as long as I'm here,
you are not going to be
a part of the Li family!
You are not acting like a brother,
but a jealously husband.
Whatever you say.
Anyway, I don't agree.
What if Li Jianjian gets married in the future
Sorry,
our Li Jianjian
doesn't have to get married.
I can take care of her.
All men are the pits!
Then you are the pits, too.
Having been fed by the Li family for so many years,
you just left with your rich father
as soon as he came to you.
Li Jianjian told you so?
Isn't that obvious?
You know nothing!
Ziqiu!
You are here.
You idiot!
Li Jianjian, come with me.
What's up?
Li Jianjian, let's see
what kind of boyfriend you are dating with.
He seduces women at all times.
Take a look. Take a closer look.
He's even chatting with the girls!
I'm telling you,
when you were not here,
he kept staring at their bottoms
and faces
and drawing them.
How could you date with such a man?
What's wrong?
What's wrong?
Just break up with him!
You airhead!
And you ask me what's wrong!
Don't touch my head.
OK, I won't touch your head.
I'm telling you, do you understand
you can never believe
a man's promise?
Why are you staring at me?
Why are you talking
like Mrs. Qian?
Like Mrs. Qian? You little airhead!
Just break up with him!
Hurry up and break up with him!
Don't touch my head!
I'll hit you! I'll hit you!
Don't touch me!
What do you do, Tang Can?
She runs an online shop.
These days,
young people are not willing to work for others.
They prefer to start their own business.
Her online shop is doing very well
and she's very busy.
I told her not to come since she was busy.
But she still came.
I'm not busy every day.
Playing mahjong with you
makes me relaxed and happy.
You honey-lipped girl!
I really don't understand.
My son Zhuang Bei
is just a legal assistant
who doesn't make much money,
but he's busy all day!
A future lawyer
will make lots of money one day.
Even a part of his income
will surpass
my son's salary.
He's an engineer.
Lawyers are no match for engineers.
Character eight.
Character eight? I form a pong!
You are obviously
doing the pair!
Tang Can,
how could you give her the character eight?
I'm very happy today.
So glad that Zhuang Bei has a good friend like you.
And you even play mahjong with me.
Zhuang Bei was my senior at school.
I think he's a very kind person.
Right?
Everyone in our neighborhood
praises my son
Zhuang Bei.
He's my eldest son.
I just hope him
to live a happy life.
I wish my mom
would think the same.
What's wrong with your mom?
She has never satisfied with me.
And we always quarrel with each other.
I may not be able
to live up to her expectations.
What does she expect of you?
She wants you to get married soon?
Previously,
she wanted me to make more commercials.
And now,
she may hope me to make less trouble.
You don't understand.
Let me tell you,
a mom always focuses
all her attention on her children.
She just hopes her children to live well.
What a mom fears most?
She fears most that her children may take a wrong path.
Therefore,
you should try to understand your mom.
I knew a mom
would think over problems
from another mom's point of view.
Of course.
We are all moms.
All right, Auntie!
You are beautiful,
so everything you say is right.
You are so honey-lipped.
Let's make an appointment next time.
No problem.
Just contact me in advance.
The taxi is here.
Auntie, I'm leaving now.
All right.
Goodbye!
You asked me to go out sketching.
So why are you eating food
by yourself beside me?
See? You also keep sighing.
When you grow up, you'll be faced with a lot of family issues.
What happened?
It's not a big deal.
My brother
will go back to Singapore the day after tomorrow.
I was wondering
whether I should
get some souvenirs for him to bring back?
Then you can
just ask him.
How can you ask about it directly?
If you ask,
it seems that you don't want to buy souvenirs.
And you know,
my brother's mother
is really a difficult person.
As long as she's not satisfied with your gifts,
she'll probably
throw them out!
She did that before.
Are you worrying that
she may not let your brother go back here?
That's impossible.
My brother is an adult now.
It's just he has a biological sister younger than him.
I don't know how difficult she is right now.
Biological sister? So what?
When boys grow up,
they always follow around nominal sisters.
My brother doesn't have a nominal sister.
Listen, we are on a date.
Why are you
keep talking about Ling Xiao
and Ziqiu?
Can we only
pour out our grievances to each other,
draw pictures
and see art exhibitions together?
Can't we talk about something else?
About what?
Let's do what a couple should do
on a date.
Stop, stop, stop!
What's the matter? I can't kiss you?
It's so sudden.
I'm not mentally prepared
at all!
Both love and kiss
happen naturally.
Our lips also have
their own thoughts.
But my brain doesn't allow
my body parts to mess around.
All right.
Then give the command
to your brain.
You do it. You kiss me.
They didn't even give you water
when you were with them?
I didn't want to drink too much water
and go to the bathroom again and again.
These women sat there for three hours
to play mahjong
without even moving their asses!
They didn't even pee!
How much money did you win?
I lost 300 yuan.
Did Zhuang Bei's mother
give you back the money?
Why should she?
It's mahjong. What one gains, the other loses.
If I win next time,
I won't give the money back to her, either.
You are being silly for men again.
What do you mean by "again"?
You have a history.
Your ex-boyfriend
owes you 25,000 yuan
and he hasn't pay the debt now.
Last year,
he wanted to borrow another 5,000 yuan from you
so that his current girlfriend could have an abortion.
If Li Jianjian
hadn't found it,
you could have rounded the debt
up to 30,000 yuan!
Why do you mention that scumbag again?
I'm a different person now.
I almost forget it if you don't mention this.
Has he returned the money to you?
Don't be angry if I tell you.
Tell me.
He blacklisted me.
I guess he won't return the money.
Look at you!
You look so pretty and clever.
Anyone who doesn't know you
would think you are taking money
from men to spend!
You silly girl!
From now on,
don't tell me if you spend money on men,
because it makes me so angry!
Why are you putting snacks
into the gift box?
You know, Ling Xiao will go back to Singapore
the day after tomorrow.
My mom got these snacks,
but she has never eaten them.
In case they go out of date,
I want to give them to Ling Xiao,
so that he can bring them back as a souvenir.
But it's inconvenient to carry these small boxes.
I just spent some money on men,
but someone
are taking things from her parents
to help out her man!
Don't talk nonsense!
It's just they may go out of date.
I don't want to waste them.
Don't you think so?
What are you doing?
Qi Mingyue,
you even wear perfume!
I sprayed some perfume this morning.
I'm back.
Jianjian, come here!
You see, Mingyue has packed a lot of snacks
for Ling Xiao to bring back to Singapore.
Does it look nice?
Let me bring it to my brother.
This silly girl really can't take a hint.
What are you carrying?
Qi Mingyue prepared this for you
to take to Singapore.
What's up?
Isn't it for me?
Do you want me to help you pack up?
You don't know what I want to take.
You'll be away for only two days.
Do you have to use such a big suitcase?
I'll just go with the bag.
I knew it!
The suitcase is too big.
It looks like you are moving out.
When I come back,
I'll bring you
the pineapple tarts and nougats
next to my school.
Pineapple tarts and others don't matter.
Have you booked your return flight?
If you book it before leaving
and the tickets are sold out, it will be too bad.
I booked it.
Do me a favor
and check out the ticketing information.
How's it? Is there anything wrong?
No.
Nothing is wrong, of course.
What could possibly go wrong
with the airline's ticketing?
No problem.
Pack your bag.
I'll call you when dinner is ready.
Sure.
Go. Let me drive you to the airport.
I can take a taxi.
It doesn't matter.
I'll go to the TV station this afternoon.
And I'm here waiting for you specially.
He didn't have a crush on anyone
during high school?
He wasn't acquainted with any junior girl
two years behind him?
Did Ling Xiao tell you anything?
He seems to have a crush
on one of his juniors by two years.
His junior?
She was his junior by two years
and they knew each other.
Who else could that be but you?
Now let me ask you.
Mingyue,
do you have a crush on anyone?
Who's him? Do I know him?
You think your mom don't know
what kind of person you are?
You are dilatory and introverted,
having no vision at all.
Even if you meet
a good young man,
you may not even have the nerves
to ask for his phone number.
I know.
Leave Li Jianjian to me.
I'll watch her for you.
Thank you. See you later.
Ling Xiao.
I was waiting for you to say it.
But I think
it's not bad if the girl
break the ice first.
I don't want to waste time
in putting out feelers.
Putting out feelers?
I don't want the ambiguous relationship any longer.
This is my answer.
Qi Mingyue.
I know. Let's talk about it when you are back.
Go. Just go!
Just go!
Ling
Drive the car away immediately after the passenger gets off.
Sorry. I'm sorry.
Honey, have some coffee.
Thank you, darling.
Good morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Li Jianjian, that's a designer bag!
Ziqiu gave it to me!
Damn rich people!
By the way,
has the advertising agency
decided how we should make
their Galloping Horses?
Don't mention it.
I've gone there for three times.
Yesterday, they suddenly told me
they didn't want Galloping Horses any more.
Then what do they want?
They want Ten Thousand Galloping Horses,
which should be vast and mighty, advancing one after another.
And not a single horse shall be missed!
I did the math.
If both of us don't eat, drink
or do anything else,
we can make a horse one day
And 365 horses
a year.
So it will take us 27 years and three months
to make 10,000 horses!
Are they going to
spend their lives with horses?
In addition, they'll only give us 50,000 yuan
and a project duration of two months.
Forget it.
Return their deposit.
Why should we return the deposit?
We've bought the wood
for making Galloping Horses.
The supplier won't take it back.
It's OK. Put it in the warehouse.
We'll use it later for sure.
Hey, Boss
Hello. Delivery? Hello.
All right. I'm going downstairs.
Is she stupid?
The client keeps changing their mind.
We shouldn't return the deposit.
She's an artist.
Artists need bread, too.
No wonder our studio
earns so little
every month.
When could we get rich?
By the way, I heard from Shuran
that Miss Li's adopted brother Ziqiu
was born with a silver spoon.
He's very rich.
Maybe one day,
she'll turn up her nose at this chicken feed.
What is this? How large is the box!
The 21st anniversary of my mom's death is coming.
I want to buy some paper money
and burn them for her.
Isn't this feudal superstition?
When you are dead, you are dead.
And you don't need any money.
Everyone burns something
at the anniversary of a loved one.
They just want a placebo.
Go, go, go! Get a piece of wood.
You two
You caught us.
Zhou Miao carved this for me.
We are in a relationship now.
I found out on the first day.
I really didn't have the idea
at the very beginning.
I just thought he was a student
and I should help him.
I don't want to listen!
Don't tell me. I don't want to listen!
Just listen to me!
I don't want to listen!
Listen to me!
Your cakes.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Aunt He Lan?
Aunt He Lan, you are here!
I was worrying you couldn't find the place.
Ziqiu.
You've grown up into a handsome man.
So nice.
So nice.
Aunt He Lan, what's wrong with you?
Shouldn't you be happy to see your nephew?
I'm happy. I am.
Let's go upstairs and have a seat.
Aunt He Lan, come in.
Do I affect your business?
No.
It was a cafe before.
I just bought the place
and redecorated it.
We had a soft opening one month ago.
The business is not bad.
By the way, Aunt He Lan,
have a taste.
I made these cakes myself.
See how they taste.
You made them yourself?
Good. Very sweet.
You must have spent much money
in opening such a shop?
Not too much.
The rent, decoration cost and other expenses
reached about a few hundred thousand in total.
A few hundred thousand?
Seeing you've gone so far,
I'm really happy for you
from the bottom of my heart.
Incompetent as I was,
I had to let others raise you
when you were young.
I just had no other choice.
I'm so sorry for you.
Aunt He Lan, why are bringing this up again?
I lived well with my dad.
And I've grown up without any suffering.
Your dad really treats you well.
You did recognize Zhao Huaguang as your biological father,
but you can't
be ungrateful.
In the future,
you must take care of your dad.
I know. I know.
Ziqiu, this
Hello, Dad.
Aunt He Lan
is in my shop now.
OK, OK. We are coming soon.
You are here.
Come in. Come in.
Now I just need to make a soup.
Haichao,
sorry for keeping you from your business.
No,
I've got a chef in the restaurant.
Well, Ziqiu,
Jianjian called me just now,
saying she would bring many things with her.
You go downstairs to pick her up.
Sure, sure.
Dad,
Aunt He Lan
brings us these wild duck eggs.
It's very nice of you.
I'll go downstairs.
Go.
You really don't have to
bring these heavy things with you.
These eggs were not laid
by ducks that eat feedstuffs.
I asked Liubao to pick these wild duck eggs
in the mountains specially.
They are tasty.
These are good things.
Come in. Have a seat. Have a seat.
Hurry up and come in.
The lunch will be ready
in ten minutes,
so I don't make tea for you.
Here, drink some water.
Ziqiu has been a good boy since childhood,
doing homework without being asked.
Yes.
But,
it was not good for him to become thoughtful
at such a young age.
That made him suffer a lot with grown-ups.
This is all my elder sister's fault.
Never mind. Forget it.
He Mei
has never
contacted you, right?
No, she hasn't.
When she left,
she sent us a letter,
telling us to see her as a dead person.
She has a strong character.
Even if she doesn't live well,
she would rather hang herself
than come to us brazenly.
Don't say that.
Frequent shifts make a tree dead but a person prosperous.
I guess she lives well.
Why do we keep talking about her?
Ziqiu won't be happy to hear this.
Right. Let's not talk about her.
Haichao,
don't blame Ziqiu.
You are bringing
the conversation back to Ziqiu.
Ziqiu left with Zhao Huaguang
when he graduated
from high school.
He did that just for his study.
You see, he left and came back.
It means he has a conscience.
As the saying goes,
a man will love his adopted parents more than his biological parents.
You are right.
Anyway,
I was only glad
when Ziqiu got the chance to study abroad.
Besides,
Zhao Huaguang is Ziqiu's biological father
at any rate.
It's good that
he has one more father to love him.
Haichao,
you are such a good man.
Everything happened
because we were incompetent at that time.
Don't say that!
You don't have to dwell on
the past problems.
Forget it. Just forget it.
Well, how are your families?
What happened? Does anything go wrong?
Haichao,
my husband
was diagnosed with gastric cancer in March.
He had an operation in the hospital last month.
Next week, he'll start the chemotherapy.
This is a big deal.
Why didn't you tell me?
I
I'm really ashamed
to trouble you guys again.
To be honest, Haichao,
I came to Ziqiu this time
not just to pay him a visit,
but to borrow some money from him.
I've borrowed money
from every possible relative.
Now they are even avoiding me
because I've borrowed too much money.
I really have no other option.
Have you told Ziqiu about this?
I find it too hard to tell him.
Great. You didn't tell him.
That's great.
It's not easy for Ziqiu
to come back and start a business.
He's got many things that costs money.
Don't worry.
How about this?
I still have some spare money.
Tell me how much you need.
No, Haichao.
Why not?
This is about saving a life.
Just tell me how much.
I need 20,000 yuan.
Is it possible?
If not, you can borrow me less.
It's OK. I'll get back the money for financial products.
Dad.
Just leave it to me.
I have money.
No, you don't.
You've just come back to start your business.
Dad, it's OK!
Ziqiu,
I really have no other option.
Aunt He Lan, don't say that.
It's OK.
By the way,
when will Uncle
start the chemotherapy?
We've booked the ward bed.
The chemotherapy will begin in next week.
All right.
I shall visit and look after him
by that time.
I can also help, Aunt He Lan.
Please feel free to call me.
Thank you, Jianjian.
What a good girl!
-Just like me. -Just like my mom.
Like your mom? Come on!
You mom was so beautiful.
So I look like her!
I'm beautiful too.
You are beautiful?
Dad, you see?
Dad, am I?
Aunt He Lan, I look pretty, right?
Change your shoes quickly!
Hurry up! Let's have lunch.
Please type the password.
Please wait a moment.
Continue or not, please select.
Please select a service.
Please type the amount.
Please wait a moment.
Thank you for your use.
Please get your card back.
Hello, sir. Take a seat, please.
What type of service do you need?
I want to withdraw cash.
All right.
Aunt He Lan,
I bought
some royal jelly and albumen powder
for Uncle.
Nourish him with these things by that time.
And I put the money
in this bag.
Take it.
Thank you, Ziqiu.
No problem.
This is the receipt for 20,000 yuan.
I've written it. Take it.
Aunt He Lan, I don't need the receipt.
When the ducks
can be sold,
our financial situation will get better.
By that time,
I'll return the money to you as soon as possible.
Fine, Aunt He Lan.
By that time,
you just return 20,000 yuan to me.
Nothing less.
Here's the bus.
Aunt He Lan,
when Uncle starts
the chemotherapy here,
don't forget to tell me.
I shall pay him a visit.
Get in the bus. Get in.
Go back.
OK.
It's OK. Let me watch you get in the bus.
For some people,
life is too difficult.
As the promotion has ended recently,
it's normal
to have less customers.
I hope everyone keep working hard.
Don't let up.
Come on.
Go! Go! Go!
OK, you are dismissed.
Boss,
we just got paid today.
So we are going to have dinner and sing karaoke together.
Are you coming with us?
I'm not going today.
Later, I have something to do
with my sister.
You guys have fun.
I wish I had an elder brother
like our boss.
Our boss has a sister complex.
Don't you know that?
I know!
You know nothing.
There is no blood relationship
between our boss and his sister.
Our boss is a foster son.
Don't talk nonsense!
It's true.
His lawyer friend said so.
Our pay day is also coming
in two days.
You situation is not that bad,
since you have only one employee in your studio.
Both you and your senior
are owners, right?
Don't mention it.
We didn't hire
an employee.
We got ourselves a boss!
He either asks for leave or comes late.
My senior thinks I don't know that
she often help the guy with his work
after she finishes her own work.
Something must be wrong with her mind.
Love is all for her.
If you are not the same with her,
just break up with Shuran.
Here we go again.
I'm upset now.
Stop nagging.
Why are you upset?
I don't know if Ling Xiao has got home.
The plane landed
an hour ago,
so he should be at home right now.
Coming!
You are back.
Mom.
The food is ready. We are waiting for you.
Come in.
Chengzi, your brother is back!
Let's have the meal.
Chengzi!
Come on.
Chengzi!
Why did you lock the door?
Open the door!
Don't burst into my room.
Can you do that?
What do you mean by saying so?
Can't I
Can't I
enter your room?
Your brother is tired.
Don't let him serve you.
Say thank you.
Thank you.
Where's your luggage?
Did you leave it outside the door?
I have no luggage.
No luggage?
Let's have the meal first.
Why didn't you take your luggage with you?
Answer me. I'm asking you.
Do you want us to eat or not?
I'm talking to your brother!
You are insane.
Is your dad sick?
No.
Ling Heping told you
not to come back?
But why didn't he
tell me
when I called him?
It has nothing to do with my dad.
This is not for Li Jianjian, right?
Are you crazy?
you can think about
your relationship later.
This is about your future.
How could you quit
such a good job without hesitation?
You know how difficult it is to get the job!
You just quit it?
I've already found a job
at home.
At home?
What do you mean?
This is not your home, right?
I've been with you for so long
and this is still not your home, right?
Don't answer the phone!
Mom, stop it! What are you doing?
Mom, don't be like this! Mom!
He didn't answer the phone.
I could get through a moment ago.
Why couldn't I get through now?
Maybe he has a bad connection at home?
Sorry,
The number you dialed is out of
I was wondering
how Ling Xiao would talk to his mother.
Me too.
Why don't you make a phone call and ask him?
I called, but I couldn't get through.
I called him a couple of times.
Haichao, I want to ask you something.
You have to be honest with me.
Over the years,
have you always been
thinking about He Mei?
Be serious.
I am serious.
I thought it over.
You two are really well matched.
You see,
you are like a mother hen
who worries about everything.
While He Mei
leaves everything to others.
I'm so serious.
Come on!
She and Zhao Huaguang are well matched.
Don't mention Zhao Huaguang.
He's nothing but a rogue who lives off women.
I wonder
what He Mei was thinking at that time.
You see,
she asked you
to persuade Ziqiu to recognize his biological father.
This is
In addition,
you didn't tell Ziqiu
about He Mei's return at that time, did you?
How should I say to him?
He Mei's attitude
would only hurt him again.
Why should I?
How about this?
Can you do me a favor
and ask about He Mei's location?
What do you mean?
No, you misunderstand me.
I saw Ziqiu kept the makeup mirror
his mother left him.
So I think
he may want to
meet his mother all the time.
Besides, He Mei
returned me the money
last time.
I can't tell Ziqiu about it.
So I always feel sorry
in my heart.
You
You are like the Virgin Mary as they say on the internet.
What Mary?
Virgin Mary.
What's that?
It means
you are a nice guy and a pushover.
You are right.
You can't always be the Virgin Mary.
Right.
Fine. I'll take your advice.
That's the right thing to do.
I'll return
your board expenses.
You may go to the next door and have your meals.
No, no! Bro!
How about this? I apologize.
My fault.
I'll ask around her location for you right now.
Shell the beans.
I told Ling Xiao my feelings today.
You told your feelings
Your feelings!
When?
When I drove him to the airport.
What a good time!
I just felt
it was not going to work
if we continue this ambiguous relationship.
You know,
Ling Xiao is cool
and shy.
If I had waited for him to express his feelings,
how long could I have waited?
So I spoke out my feelings first.
Stop writing! Are you that busy?
What did he say?
I told him to give me an answer after he comes back.
But I think,
I may have scared him.
Scared him?
Are you talking about Ling Xiao?
You are upset?
Why?
I can't get through to my brother.
I knew it!
Everything was fine before he came back.
After he came back,
Li Jianjian was really under the thumb.
He's only been away for one day,
and you are so upset.
What a disaster!
Who's a disaster?
He's just been away for one day.
It doesn't mean he won't come back.
And you!
Why don't you fall in love with someone else?
Does it has to be a nerd with a sister complex?
Just wait to be jealous of your sister-in-law
in the future!
Episode 19
Here are your cakes.
Thanks.
Please enjoy.
Why are you still here?
I paid for the coffee.
Just leave!
Take care. They may sue you for sexual harassment.
No.
Girls.
There is a pervert over there,
drawing you secretly.
Shall I call the police?
Is your waist is so slender?
Your legs are really long.
Are you that pretty?
We look so good in this drawing.
Sir, are you a painter?
No, I do human sculptures.
Then you are the artist.
I'm still unworthy of being called an artist.
Are you taking us
as your models?
Your girls have good physical conditions
with standard body proportions.
Really?
Why are you following me?
Brother Ziqiu!
Who's your brother?
I'm telling you,
as long as I'm here,
you are not going to be
a part of the Li family!
You are not acting like a brother,
but a jealously husband.
Whatever you say.
Anyway, I don't agree.
What if Li Jianjian gets married in the future
Sorry,
our Li Jianjian
doesn't have to get married.
I can take care of her.
All men are the pits!
Then you are the pits, too.
Having been fed by the Li family for so many years,
you just left with your rich father
as soon as he came to you.
Li Jianjian told you so?
Isn't that obvious?
You know nothing!
Ziqiu!
You are here.
You idiot!
Li Jianjian, come with me.
What's up?
Li Jianjian, let's see
what kind of boyfriend you are dating with.
He seduces women at all times.
Take a look. Take a closer look.
He's even chatting with the girls!
I'm telling you,
when you were not here,
he kept staring at their bottoms
and faces
and drawing them.
How could you date with such a man?
What's wrong?
What's wrong?
Just break up with him!
You airhead!
And you ask me what's wrong!
Don't touch my head.
OK, I won't touch your head.
I'm telling you, do you understand
you can never believe
a man's promise?
Why are you staring at me?
Why are you talking
like Mrs. Qian?
Like Mrs. Qian? You little airhead!
Just break up with him!
Hurry up and break up with him!
Don't touch my head!
I'll hit you! I'll hit you!
Don't touch me!
What do you do, Tang Can?
She runs an online shop.
These days,
young people are not willing to work for others.
They prefer to start their own business.
Her online shop is doing very well
and she's very busy.
I told her not to come since she was busy.
But she still came.
I'm not busy every day.
Playing mahjong with you
makes me relaxed and happy.
You honey-lipped girl!
I really don't understand.
My son Zhuang Bei
is just a legal assistant
who doesn't make much money,
but he's busy all day!
A future lawyer
will make lots of money one day.
Even a part of his income
will surpass
my son's salary.
He's an engineer.
Lawyers are no match for engineers.
Character eight.
Character eight? I form a pong!
You are obviously
doing the pair!
Tang Can,
how could you give her the character eight?
I'm very happy today.
So glad that Zhuang Bei has a good friend like you.
And you even play mahjong with me.
Zhuang Bei was my senior at school.
I think he's a very kind person.
Right?
Everyone in our neighborhood
praises my son
Zhuang Bei.
He's my eldest son.
I just hope him
to live a happy life.
I wish my mom
would think the same.
What's wrong with your mom?
She has never satisfied with me.
And we always quarrel with each other.
I may not be able
to live up to her expectations.
What does she expect of you?
She wants you to get married soon?
Previously,
she wanted me to make more commercials.
And now,
she may hope me to make less trouble.
You don't understand.
Let me tell you,
a mom always focuses
all her attention on her children.
She just hopes her children to live well.
What a mom fears most?
She fears most that her children may take a wrong path.
Therefore,
you should try to understand your mom.
I knew a mom
would think over problems
from another mom's point of view.
Of course.
We are all moms.
All right, Auntie!
You are beautiful,
so everything you say is right.
You are so honey-lipped.
Let's make an appointment next time.
No problem.
Just contact me in advance.
The taxi is here.
Auntie, I'm leaving now.
All right.
Goodbye!
You asked me to go out sketching.
So why are you eating food
by yourself beside me?
See? You also keep sighing.
When you grow up, you'll be faced with a lot of family issues.
What happened?
It's not a big deal.
My brother
will go back to Singapore the day after tomorrow.
I was wondering
whether I should
get some souvenirs for him to bring back?
Then you can
just ask him.
How can you ask about it directly?
If you ask,
it seems that you don't want to buy souvenirs.
And you know,
my brother's mother
is really a difficult person.
As long as she's not satisfied with your gifts,
she'll probably
throw them out!
She did that before.
Are you worrying that
she may not let your brother go back here?
That's impossible.
My brother is an adult now.
It's just he has a biological sister younger than him.
I don't know how difficult she is right now.
Biological sister? So what?
When boys grow up,
they always follow around nominal sisters.
My brother doesn't have a nominal sister.
Listen, we are on a date.
Why are you
keep talking about Ling Xiao
and Ziqiu?
Can we only
pour out our grievances to each other,
draw pictures
and see art exhibitions together?
Can't we talk about something else?
About what?
Let's do what a couple should do
on a date.
Stop, stop, stop!
What's the matter? I can't kiss you?
It's so sudden.
I'm not mentally prepared
at all!
Both love and kiss
happen naturally.
Our lips also have
their own thoughts.
But my brain doesn't allow
my body parts to mess around.
All right.
Then give the command
to your brain.
You do it. You kiss me.
They didn't even give you water
when you were with them?
I didn't want to drink too much water
and go to the bathroom again and again.
These women sat there for three hours
to play mahjong
without even moving their asses!
They didn't even pee!
How much money did you win?
I lost 300 yuan.
Did Zhuang Bei's mother
give you back the money?
Why should she?
It's mahjong. What one gains, the other loses.
If I win next time,
I won't give the money back to her, either.
You are being silly for men again.
What do you mean by "again"?
You have a history.
Your ex-boyfriend
owes you 25,000 yuan
and he hasn't pay the debt now.
Last year,
he wanted to borrow another 5,000 yuan from you
so that his current girlfriend could have an abortion.
If Li Jianjian
hadn't found it,
you could have rounded the debt
up to 30,000 yuan!
Why do you mention that scumbag again?
I'm a different person now.
I almost forget it if you don't mention this.
Has he returned the money to you?
Don't be angry if I tell you.
Tell me.
He blacklisted me.
I guess he won't return the money.
Look at you!
You look so pretty and clever.
Anyone who doesn't know you
would think you are taking money
from men to spend!
You silly girl!
From now on,
don't tell me if you spend money on men,
because it makes me so angry!
Why are you putting snacks
into the gift box?
You know, Ling Xiao will go back to Singapore
the day after tomorrow.
My mom got these snacks,
but she has never eaten them.
In case they go out of date,
I want to give them to Ling Xiao,
so that he can bring them back as a souvenir.
But it's inconvenient to carry these small boxes.
I just spent some money on men,
but someone
are taking things from her parents
to help out her man!
Don't talk nonsense!
It's just they may go out of date.
I don't want to waste them.
Don't you think so?
What are you doing?
Qi Mingyue,
you even wear perfume!
I sprayed some perfume this morning.
I'm back.
Jianjian, come here!
You see, Mingyue has packed a lot of snacks
for Ling Xiao to bring back to Singapore.
Does it look nice?
Let me bring it to my brother.
This silly girl really can't take a hint.
What are you carrying?
Qi Mingyue prepared this for you
to take to Singapore.
What's up?
Isn't it for me?
Do you want me to help you pack up?
You don't know what I want to take.
You'll be away for only two days.
Do you have to use such a big suitcase?
I'll just go with the bag.
I knew it!
The suitcase is too big.
It looks like you are moving out.
When I come back,
I'll bring you
the pineapple tarts and nougats
next to my school.
Pineapple tarts and others don't matter.
Have you booked your return flight?
If you book it before leaving
and the tickets are sold out, it will be too bad.
I booked it.
Do me a favor
and check out the ticketing information.
How's it? Is there anything wrong?
No.
Nothing is wrong, of course.
What could possibly go wrong
with the airline's ticketing?
No problem.
Pack your bag.
I'll call you when dinner is ready.
Sure.
Go. Let me drive you to the airport.
I can take a taxi.
It doesn't matter.
I'll go to the TV station this afternoon.
And I'm here waiting for you specially.
He didn't have a crush on anyone
during high school?
He wasn't acquainted with any junior girl
two years behind him?
Did Ling Xiao tell you anything?
He seems to have a crush
on one of his juniors by two years.
His junior?
She was his junior by two years
and they knew each other.
Who else could that be but you?
Now let me ask you.
Mingyue,
do you have a crush on anyone?
Who's him? Do I know him?
You think your mom don't know
what kind of person you are?
You are dilatory and introverted,
having no vision at all.
Even if you meet
a good young man,
you may not even have the nerves
to ask for his phone number.
I know.
Leave Li Jianjian to me.
I'll watch her for you.
Thank you. See you later.
Ling Xiao.
I was waiting for you to say it.
But I think
it's not bad if the girl
break the ice first.
I don't want to waste time
in putting out feelers.
Putting out feelers?
I don't want the ambiguous relationship any longer.
This is my answer.
Qi Mingyue.
I know. Let's talk about it when you are back.
Go. Just go!
Just go!
Ling
Drive the car away immediately after the passenger gets off.
Sorry. I'm sorry.
Honey, have some coffee.
Thank you, darling.
Good morning.
Morning.
Morning.
Li Jianjian, that's a designer bag!
Ziqiu gave it to me!
Damn rich people!
By the way,
has the advertising agency
decided how we should make
their Galloping Horses?
Don't mention it.
I've gone there for three times.
Yesterday, they suddenly told me
they didn't want Galloping Horses any more.
Then what do they want?
They want Ten Thousand Galloping Horses,
which should be vast and mighty, advancing one after another.
And not a single horse shall be missed!
I did the math.
If both of us don't eat, drink
or do anything else,
we can make a horse one day
And 365 horses
a year.
So it will take us 27 years and three months
to make 10,000 horses!
Are they going to
spend their lives with horses?
In addition, they'll only give us 50,000 yuan
and a project duration of two months.
Forget it.
Return their deposit.
Why should we return the deposit?
We've bought the wood
for making Galloping Horses.
The supplier won't take it back.
It's OK. Put it in the warehouse.
We'll use it later for sure.
Hey, Boss
Hello. Delivery? Hello.
All right. I'm going downstairs.
Is she stupid?
The client keeps changing their mind.
We shouldn't return the deposit.
She's an artist.
Artists need bread, too.
No wonder our studio
earns so little
every month.
When could we get rich?
By the way, I heard from Shuran
that Miss Li's adopted brother Ziqiu
was born with a silver spoon.
He's very rich.
Maybe one day,
she'll turn up her nose at this chicken feed.
What is this? How large is the box!
The 21st anniversary of my mom's death is coming.
I want to buy some paper money
and burn them for her.
Isn't this feudal superstition?
When you are dead, you are dead.
And you don't need any money.
Everyone burns something
at the anniversary of a loved one.
They just want a placebo.
Go, go, go! Get a piece of wood.
You two
You caught us.
Zhou Miao carved this for me.
We are in a relationship now.
I found out on the first day.
I really didn't have the idea
at the very beginning.
I just thought he was a student
and I should help him.
I don't want to listen!
Don't tell me. I don't want to listen!
Just listen to me!
I don't want to listen!
Listen to me!
Your cakes.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Aunt He Lan?
Aunt He Lan, you are here!
I was worrying you couldn't find the place.
Ziqiu.
You've grown up into a handsome man.
So nice.
So nice.
Aunt He Lan, what's wrong with you?
Shouldn't you be happy to see your nephew?
I'm happy. I am.
Let's go upstairs and have a seat.
Aunt He Lan, come in.
Do I affect your business?
No.
It was a cafe before.
I just bought the place
and redecorated it.
We had a soft opening one month ago.
The business is not bad.
By the way, Aunt He Lan,
have a taste.
I made these cakes myself.
See how they taste.
You made them yourself?
Good. Very sweet.
You must have spent much money
in opening such a shop?
Not too much.
The rent, decoration cost and other expenses
reached about a few hundred thousand in total.
A few hundred thousand?
Seeing you've gone so far,
I'm really happy for you
from the bottom of my heart.
Incompetent as I was,
I had to let others raise you
when you were young.
I just had no other choice.
I'm so sorry for you.
Aunt He Lan, why are bringing this up again?
I lived well with my dad.
And I've grown up without any suffering.
Your dad really treats you well.
You did recognize Zhao Huaguang as your biological father,
but you can't
be ungrateful.
In the future,
you must take care of your dad.
I know. I know.
Ziqiu, this
Hello, Dad.
Aunt He Lan
is in my shop now.
OK, OK. We are coming soon.
You are here.
Come in. Come in.
Now I just need to make a soup.
Haichao,
sorry for keeping you from your business.
No,
I've got a chef in the restaurant.
Well, Ziqiu,
Jianjian called me just now,
saying she would bring many things with her.
You go downstairs to pick her up.
Sure, sure.
Dad,
Aunt He Lan
brings us these wild duck eggs.
It's very nice of you.
I'll go downstairs.
Go.
You really don't have to
bring these heavy things with you.
These eggs were not laid
by ducks that eat feedstuffs.
I asked Liubao to pick these wild duck eggs
in the mountains specially.
They are tasty.
These are good things.
Come in. Have a seat. Have a seat.
Hurry up and come in.
The lunch will be ready
in ten minutes,
so I don't make tea for you.
Here, drink some water.
Ziqiu has been a good boy since childhood,
doing homework without being asked.
Yes.
But,
it was not good for him to become thoughtful
at such a young age.
That made him suffer a lot with grown-ups.
This is all my elder sister's fault.
Never mind. Forget it.
He Mei
has never
contacted you, right?
No, she hasn't.
When she left,
she sent us a letter,
telling us to see her as a dead person.
She has a strong character.
Even if she doesn't live well,
she would rather hang herself
than come to us brazenly.
Don't say that.
Frequent shifts make a tree dead but a person prosperous.
I guess she lives well.
Why do we keep talking about her?
Ziqiu won't be happy to hear this.
Right. Let's not talk about her.
Haichao,
don't blame Ziqiu.
You are bringing
the conversation back to Ziqiu.
Ziqiu left with Zhao Huaguang
when he graduated
from high school.
He did that just for his study.
You see, he left and came back.
It means he has a conscience.
As the saying goes,
a man will love his adopted parents more than his biological parents.
You are right.
Anyway,
I was only glad
when Ziqiu got the chance to study abroad.
Besides,
Zhao Huaguang is Ziqiu's biological father
at any rate.
It's good that
he has one more father to love him.
Haichao,
you are such a good man.
Everything happened
because we were incompetent at that time.
Don't say that!
You don't have to dwell on
the past problems.
Forget it. Just forget it.
Well, how are your families?
What happened? Does anything go wrong?
Haichao,
my husband
was diagnosed with gastric cancer in March.
He had an operation in the hospital last month.
Next week, he'll start the chemotherapy.
This is a big deal.
Why didn't you tell me?
I
I'm really ashamed
to trouble you guys again.
To be honest, Haichao,
I came to Ziqiu this time
not just to pay him a visit,
but to borrow some money from him.
I've borrowed money
from every possible relative.
Now they are even avoiding me
because I've borrowed too much money.
I really have no other option.
Have you told Ziqiu about this?
I find it too hard to tell him.
Great. You didn't tell him.
That's great.
It's not easy for Ziqiu
to come back and start a business.
He's got many things that costs money.
Don't worry.
How about this?
I still have some spare money.
Tell me how much you need.
No, Haichao.
Why not?
This is about saving a life.
Just tell me how much.
I need 20,000 yuan.
Is it possible?
If not, you can borrow me less.
It's OK. I'll get back the money for financial products.
Dad.
Just leave it to me.
I have money.
No, you don't.
You've just come back to start your business.
Dad, it's OK!
Ziqiu,
I really have no other option.
Aunt He Lan, don't say that.
It's OK.
By the way,
when will Uncle
start the chemotherapy?
We've booked the ward bed.
The chemotherapy will begin in next week.
All right.
I shall visit and look after him
by that time.
I can also help, Aunt He Lan.
Please feel free to call me.
Thank you, Jianjian.
What a good girl!
-Just like me. -Just like my mom.
Like your mom? Come on!
You mom was so beautiful.
So I look like her!
I'm beautiful too.
You are beautiful?
Dad, you see?
Dad, am I?
Aunt He Lan, I look pretty, right?
Change your shoes quickly!
Hurry up! Let's have lunch.
Please type the password.
Please wait a moment.
Continue or not, please select.
Please select a service.
Please type the amount.
Please wait a moment.
Thank you for your use.
Please get your card back.
Hello, sir. Take a seat, please.
What type of service do you need?
I want to withdraw cash.
All right.
Aunt He Lan,
I bought
some royal jelly and albumen powder
for Uncle.
Nourish him with these things by that time.
And I put the money
in this bag.
Take it.
Thank you, Ziqiu.
No problem.
This is the receipt for 20,000 yuan.
I've written it. Take it.
Aunt He Lan, I don't need the receipt.
When the ducks
can be sold,
our financial situation will get better.
By that time,
I'll return the money to you as soon as possible.
Fine, Aunt He Lan.
By that time,
you just return 20,000 yuan to me.
Nothing less.
Here's the bus.
Aunt He Lan,
when Uncle starts
the chemotherapy here,
don't forget to tell me.
I shall pay him a visit.
Get in the bus. Get in.
Go back.
OK.
It's OK. Let me watch you get in the bus.
For some people,
life is too difficult.
As the promotion has ended recently,
it's normal
to have less customers.
I hope everyone keep working hard.
Don't let up.
Come on.
Go! Go! Go!
OK, you are dismissed.
Boss,
we just got paid today.
So we are going to have dinner and sing karaoke together.
Are you coming with us?
I'm not going today.
Later, I have something to do
with my sister.
You guys have fun.
I wish I had an elder brother
like our boss.
Our boss has a sister complex.
Don't you know that?
I know!
You know nothing.
There is no blood relationship
between our boss and his sister.
Our boss is a foster son.
Don't talk nonsense!
It's true.
His lawyer friend said so.
Our pay day is also coming
in two days.
You situation is not that bad,
since you have only one employee in your studio.
Both you and your senior
are owners, right?
Don't mention it.
We didn't hire
an employee.
We got ourselves a boss!
He either asks for leave or comes late.
My senior thinks I don't know that
she often help the guy with his work
after she finishes her own work.
Something must be wrong with her mind.
Love is all for her.
If you are not the same with her,
just break up with Shuran.
Here we go again.
I'm upset now.
Stop nagging.
Why are you upset?
I don't know if Ling Xiao has got home.
The plane landed
an hour ago,
so he should be at home right now.
Coming!
You are back.
Mom.
The food is ready. We are waiting for you.
Come in.
Chengzi, your brother is back!
Let's have the meal.
Chengzi!
Come on.
Chengzi!
Why did you lock the door?
Open the door!
Don't burst into my room.
Can you do that?
What do you mean by saying so?
Can't I
Can't I
enter your room?
Your brother is tired.
Don't let him serve you.
Say thank you.
Thank you.
Where's your luggage?
Did you leave it outside the door?
I have no luggage.
No luggage?
Let's have the meal first.
Why didn't you take your luggage with you?
Answer me. I'm asking you.
Do you want us to eat or not?
I'm talking to your brother!
You are insane.
Is your dad sick?
No.
Ling Heping told you
not to come back?
But why didn't he
tell me
when I called him?
It has nothing to do with my dad.
This is not for Li Jianjian, right?
Are you crazy?
you can think about
your relationship later.
This is about your future.
How could you quit
such a good job without hesitation?
You know how difficult it is to get the job!
You just quit it?
I've already found a job
at home.
At home?
What do you mean?
This is not your home, right?
I've been with you for so long
and this is still not your home, right?
Don't answer the phone!
Mom, stop it! What are you doing?
Mom, don't be like this! Mom!
He didn't answer the phone.
I could get through a moment ago.
Why couldn't I get through now?
Maybe he has a bad connection at home?
Sorry,
The number you dialed is out of
I was wondering
how Ling Xiao would talk to his mother.
Me too.
Why don't you make a phone call and ask him?
I called, but I couldn't get through.
I called him a couple of times.
Haichao, I want to ask you something.
You have to be honest with me.
Over the years,
have you always been
thinking about He Mei?
Be serious.
I am serious.
I thought it over.
You two are really well matched.
You see,
you are like a mother hen
who worries about everything.
While He Mei
leaves everything to others.
I'm so serious.
Come on!
She and Zhao Huaguang are well matched.
Don't mention Zhao Huaguang.
He's nothing but a rogue who lives off women.
I wonder
what He Mei was thinking at that time.
You see,
she asked you
to persuade Ziqiu to recognize his biological father.
This is
In addition,
you didn't tell Ziqiu
about He Mei's return at that time, did you?
How should I say to him?
He Mei's attitude
would only hurt him again.
Why should I?
How about this?
Can you do me a favor
and ask about He Mei's location?
What do you mean?
No, you misunderstand me.
I saw Ziqiu kept the makeup mirror
his mother left him.
So I think
he may want to
meet his mother all the time.
Besides, He Mei
returned me the money
last time.
I can't tell Ziqiu about it.
So I always feel sorry
in my heart.
You
You are like the Virgin Mary as they say on the internet.
What Mary?
Virgin Mary.
What's that?
It means
you are a nice guy and a pushover.
You are right.
You can't always be the Virgin Mary.
Right.
Fine. I'll take your advice.
That's the right thing to do.
I'll return
your board expenses.
You may go to the next door and have your meals.
No, no! Bro!
How about this? I apologize.
My fault.
I'll ask around her location for you right now.
Shell the beans.
I told Ling Xiao my feelings today.
You told your feelings
Your feelings!
When?
When I drove him to the airport.
What a good time!
I just felt
it was not going to work
if we continue this ambiguous relationship.
You know,
Ling Xiao is cool
and shy.
If I had waited for him to express his feelings,
how long could I have waited?
So I spoke out my feelings first.
Stop writing! Are you that busy?
What did he say?
I told him to give me an answer after he comes back.
But I think,
I may have scared him.
Scared him?
Are you talking about Ling Xiao?
You are upset?
Why?
I can't get through to my brother.
I knew it!
Everything was fine before he came back.
After he came back,
Li Jianjian was really under the thumb.
He's only been away for one day,
and you are so upset.
What a disaster!
Who's a disaster?
He's just been away for one day.
It doesn't mean he won't come back.
And you!
Why don't you fall in love with someone else?
Does it has to be a nerd with a sister complex?
Just wait to be jealous of your sister-in-law
in the future!
