[My Bargain Queen]
[Episode 21]
Dad.
You are awake.
Where am I?
I'm not in heaven, am I?
You are in the hospital.
Do you know me?
Yueyue.
You are not in heaven.
You are fine now.
The operation was successful.
You can rest assured.
Do you feel
uncomfortable now?
No, no.
Have some rest then.
I'll go to get the doctor.
Yueyue.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
It's in the past.
Shuangshuang.
Do you have time this afternoon?
Yeah.
Well, you know,
Aunt Hu set you up with someone.
He wants to ask you out for coffee in the afternoon.
I said yes for you.
What?
I haven't agreed yet.
Why did you do that without talking to me first every time?
If I don't say yes first,
will you still go?
You know what,
he is planting organic vegetable
and only supplying to big hotels.
There is a hotel called Evergreen in Jinhai,
do you know it?
Do you know it?
That's their client.
His business is doing really well.
And I've met
this guy.
He is
tall and white.
Alright, alright.
Go by yourself then.
I won't be there anyway.
You...
My head hurts again.
It hurts. It hurts.
Mom.
Stop acting.
You are faking it again.
Sorry.
My mother made me come.
I don't want to be in a relationship now.
Don't be sorry.
My mom made me come, too.
I think you are a straightforward person.
I have an idea.
Why don't we join hands?
Join hands?
About what?
We can pretend to be together.
In this case,
our family won't urge us to get married anymore.
What do you think?
Hello, nurse.
Excuse me…
Xia Qian.
Mom.
How did you come?
What do you mean?
I found this
when I cleaned your house.
[Hospitalization Expenses]
Are you going to hide it from me forever
if I didn't see this?
Mom.
I didn't mean to
hide it from you.
Mainly because...
Mainly because you are afraid
I won't let you take care of him if I know it, right?
No.
Because he…
I'm afraid you will be worried.
How can I not be worried?
Look at
how preoccupied you are.
Sorry.
He has been
living a leisurely for half a lifetime.
He never asks for help.
But how does a brain tumor find him
at the end of his life?
He even asks you
to take care of him.
I haven't let you take care of me yet.
I should have got sick first
so that you can take care of me.
All right.
You are the healthiest person.
How would you get sick?
Fine. Fine.
Even if you are not sick,
I will still take care of you every day
and take good care of you.
I'll serve you well every day.
You are talking like my daughter now.
Don't shake me.
It's going to spill out.
Xia Qian.
I have one thing to confess to you.
Actually, over these years,
I have been hiding one thing from you.
I will tell you today.
It's not true that your father
never came to see you over these years.
He came before and I know it.
The reason I didn't tell you that
is because I know his temper
and his nature too well.
I'm afraid you would have expectations
and hope.
Then when he left again,
you would be
upset and hurt.
Mom, I get it.
I know it.
You know it?
Zhening told me.
Well,
you are not going to blame me, are you?
Why would I blame you?
Xia Qian.
Actually,
you will never know what life is about
if you don't go through something.
I always thought
I would never want to see your father again.
But I just rushed here immediately
when I saw that.
Because he is still your father.
You are hard on the outside and soft on the inside.
We are the same.
Me too, just like you.
Don't be like this.
Mom.
Actually, this is what I think about it.
Now that it has happened,
let's not waste time
to blame him.
How is he now?
The operation was successful.
He still needs to rest.
He is in a coma now.
How about you give this to...
It's just a few steps away.
Go and take a look, come on.
I've thought about many possibilities,
but I never expected
that you would be like this
when we meet again.
Well, well,
if you want to see our girl,
just come.
Why do you have to come
only when you are like this?
It's not like you haven't come before.
I just can't figure you out.
When can you act like a real man?
Do you know
how I've been living my life with Xia Qian
over these years?
I dare not get sick.
I dare not have any accident.
Do you know why?
Because Xia Qian
was still young at that time.
If anything had happened to me,
if I had had an accident,
what should she do?
To turn to you?
But now when I'm thinking about it,
Xia Qian has grown up.
She is sensible.
What does it mean?
It means that I raised her well.
But then again,
I realize
that you were so right about it.
Even you never see her in your life,
she is also your daughter.
You are really connected in some way.
All right, just get well soon.
Xia Qian has grown up, too.
I don't need to worry about her.
You can see her
anytime you want.
Just come to see her like her father.
But you need to keep one thing in mind.
If you dare to make Xia Qian cry again,
I'll make you pay.
Mom.
You've been taking care of him
and haven't eaten anything.
I bought something for you downstairs.
Have some.
I'm not eating.
You should take care of him.
I have work to do in the restaurant.
Have some of the chicken soup I made.
Feed him some when he wakes up.
I'm leaving.
Shuangshuang.
Where are you going?
I'm going out
with Lin.
He asked me out for a movie.
Good. Good. Good.
Go shopping after watching the movie.
No need to hurry back.
I won't be back too early.
Okay. All right.
Bye, Mom. I'm leaving.
Be safe.
Don't worry.
The baby who draws. The baby who draws.
[Ticket]
Sorry that I'm late.
Hello. Hello.
It's okay. I also just arrived.
Is there any movie you want to watch?
It's all right. Anything works.
Well...
Let's take a look over there.
Hello.
Excuse me.
What are the times of movies today?
Sorry.
The whole cinema
has been booked this afternoon.
It has been booked?
The whole cinema?
Sorry.
Well,
I guess you came for nothing today.
It's fine.
But...
How about this,
let's take a selfie
so that we can have something to show to our moms.
Okay.
Let's do it here.
Let's take a few photos here.
Okay.
The light is too strong.
I can barely open my eyes.
It's a little bit strong.
I think these photos
are enough for us.
We don't need to meet again for dating next time.
We can just send it to our parents.
You are clever indeed.
Send all the photos to me.
Okay.
Zhening.
I've always wanted to say thank you all this time.
Only thanks?
No action?
What action?
You know it.
That's it?
What else do you want?
Turn around.
Well,
I heard that Building No. 2 of your hotel
is going to open.
Well,
if you want to get someone to perform,
our band is available.
As for the cost...
No.
Of course it's free.
Totally free.
You guys go on.
Let's go.
Let's take a look over there.
What's free?
No kissing!
Their relationship is developing pretty fast.
Look.
How great they look together.
Yes.
They look together.
Well, ma'am.
What does
Lin's family do?
His family
is growing organic vegetables
and only supplying to big hotels.
Do you know the Evergreen Hotel
in Jinhai?
That's also their client.
Their business is doing well.
It's good. It's good.
Thank you for today.
What do you want to drink? I'll buy it for you.
Water is fine.
Okay.
Thanks.
It's okay.
No peeking.
It should be this one.
[Shuangshuang I'm sorry.]
Shuangshuang, I'm sorry.
Haha, I knew you would peek at it.
I'm not peeking.
It dropped down.
Shuangshuang, sorry.
I bet you are sorry.
Shuangshuang.
I wasn't peeking.
Shuangshuang.
Thank you.
It's okay.
Hello.
What?
All right. All right.
I'll be right back.
What's wrong?
It's about work.
The Evergreen Hotel in Jinhai
suddenly stopped working with us.
The Evergreen Hotel in Jinhai?
Yes.
I think I need go back and deal with it.
Well then, just go.
Okay.
[Holiday Garden of Samueli]
You part with me.
Did you do it to Lin's company?
Yes.
I thought you left Evergreen.
Even if I left Evergreen,
I still have a little influence
that is enough to affect you guys.
Why are you doing this?
You are knowingly asking.
I...
Even a provoked rabbit can bite people.
Send someone right now
to resume business with their company.
Why?
No, how can you
let Lin go?
Wait.
How long have you known him
that you are pleading for him?
What happened between us
is our own business.
It's a private matter.
Can you not drag other people into it?
You did it first.
You went out for movies with him.
You went on a date with him.
Right?
Well,
what do you want me to do?
I need you to promise me
that you will never date him again.
Okay.
You said okay that quickly?
I want to add a few more conditions.
You must go out with me.
Go out with you?
Can you
stop being so dramatic?
In the world of love,
it's hard not to be dramatic.
They all act like this in the play.
Come on. Come on.
Let's celebrate it.
Have some pears.
Part with pears.
It's sour.
Really sour.
Your head is like this now.
Just drink less.
Thanks.
Our daughter has forgiven you,
what can I do?
Sorry.
All right.
I hope you can be more reliable
and more grounded from now on.
I will be.
All right, stop drinking.
You should eat something.
You, too.
I eat it every day. Go ahead and eat.
How is it? Is it good?
I am full.
Are you full now?
Is it not your cup of tea or...?
What I eat depends on my mood.
Let's watch a movie then.
A movie will make you feel better.
Well, if you want.
Were you the one who booked the cinema yesterday?
Aren't you scared of horror movies?
I'm different now.
Mind the social distance.
You booked the place anyway.
I can sit wherever I want.
But I'm scared.
Dad.
Where is he?
Yueyue.
A record company in Shanghai
listened to the demo of our band
and they want to sign us up immediately.
It happened suddenly
and it's a rare opportunity.
I don't have time to say goodbye.
Maybe you can
see your dad singing on the big stage
in the near future.
By the way,
I sneaked out.
I haven't gone through the discharge procedures.
Thank you for that.
Who will pay for Mr. Xia's hospital bills?
I'll do it.
Okay.
I wore the skirt,
ate with you,
and watched the movie with you.
The date is over.
Period.
Can you let Lin go now?
Do you really care about Lin that much?
Hold on.
What does it have to do with you
whether I care about him or not?
Who are you?
Of course it matters.
Well, if you put it that way,
the date
is not over yet.
It's over.
It's not.
We are supposed to kiss before the end of the date.
When did you say that?
Why are there attaching conditions?
That's too much.
Are you serious?
Hold on, hold on.
If
I kiss you,
will you let Lin go?
Yes!
Alright.
What are you doing?
Fu Shuangshuang, listen up.
You can ignore me.
You can torture me.
But you can't like other men.
Cause I know you only like me in your heart.
You are going too far.
I don't like other men.
And I won't like other men.
It's fake between him and I.
You...
You are going too far.
Try this angle.
Then push it.
Is it okay? Get back.
All right, thanks.
Sir, have some water.
Why do you come over suddenly
to watch us make a promotional video?
Ai.
It's because of her.
She is a big fan of Mr. Bao.
Zhening.
Do me a favor.
What is it?
Ai wants a signed photo of Mr. Bao.
I don't know if it is inconvenient.
He looks easy-going.
I think it should be no problem
when he has time later.
He was like that.
Is that easygoing?
By the way,
are you free tonight?
Tonight?
I also want to ask you to do me a favor.
The girl in the back gives it away.
Move!
What are you doing? I'm talking about you.
Hurry and leave.
Look at her.
You are the first guest
living in Building No. 2.
I'll be your
personal butler tonight.
What you need to do
is to grade our service
and offer some advice.
Is that what you want me to do?
You must take it seriously.
Don't be perfunctory.
Got it.
Let's start with the restaurant service.
From now on,
I'm going to be a very picky customer.
Hope our service
can make you happy.
I'm not sure about that.
I'm so full.
The dishes are impeccable.
The service is also excellent.
We will keep working hard.
Is it too cold because of the air-conditioner?
Thank you for your clothes.
I don't know what's wrong.
Maybe I was exposed to air conditioner for too long yesterday.
I feel a little cold.
Okay.
I'll ask the Housekeeping Dept. to turn up the heat.
I'm still living there.
I'm at your service if you need anything.
I'm on 24 hours standby.
Am I the only guest
in the entire Building No. 2?
Are you scared?
I can live with you.
No.
I just think
it's my first time to live in a hotel alone
and it feels a little weird.
All right, go to rest.
I'm going back.
Good night.
The rumors are real.
Peter Bao
likes to seduce and assault girls
in the name of teaching them the piano,
and the girls dare not
speak up in the consideration of
their reputation and his influence.
Don't let anyone send out these photos for now.
Be sure to wait for the opening ceremony of Building No. 2
and Peter Bao
to become the advertising endorser
before we take actions.
Got.
What about the self-media I asked you to look for?
I've contacted all of them.
I promise after the opening ceremony,
it will be full of scandals online about the sexual assault of Peter Bao,
the endorser of Evergreen Building No. 2.
Remember
to make sure that these self-media
focus on the point
that Evergreen hires a despicable artist.
Let me help you?
Hold on.
What?
If the full score is 10,
how would you rate the service yesterday?
7 points.
I thought it would at least be 8 points.
Can you tell me why you take 3 points from it?
The main problem
is on you, the personal butler.
There are three reasons.
Firstly,
I said I was cold last night.
You actually proposed
to turn up the air-conditioning
in the entire hallway.
I was living there alone.
But what if there are other guests in the hotel?
Will they be dissatisfied with the way you handled it?
Secondly,
you worried that I would be scared of sleeping alone,
and you proposed
to live with me in my suite.
Is this beyond
the scope of the butler's duties?
Thirdly,
what kind of butler
voluntarily tied a female client's shoes like that?
Isn't it too reckless?
I was being unprofessional.
I deserve to be marked down.
But I don't think my service
can be any better.
Let's go.
Qin.
What's wrong with your lips?
Nothing.
Well...
I burnt my lips.
Be careful.
Qin.
Let me ask you,
do you know the Xinxian Investment?
I think I heard about it.
But I'm not very clear.
You know what,
it's a good business.
The threshold is low.
You can make an investment with 50 yuan.
Plus, a small investment brings a big return.
You will make big money
if you make investment with me.
If you don't have money,
you can ask your relatives and your friends.
They can also join in
if they want to make an investment.
Think about it.
I'm full.
I... I should get going.
Aren't you eating anymore?
I'm full too.
Don't go.
You need to clean the dishes later.
Just a minute.
But…
Clean the dishes.
Okay.
Here.
Clean them.
Qian.
Are you going to Evergreen tonight?
Yes.
Zhening asked me to take a look at
the swimming pool and the bar in Building No. 2.
Let's go there together.
Are you going, too?
Mr. Bao has a performance in Evergreen tonight.
He gave me a ticket last time.
Okay.
Qin.
One of our relatives
has an orchard on the mountain.
He told me that the fruits are ripe.
You and Shuangshuang
help them pick the fruits later
and bring some back by the way.
Okay.
Stop. Stop. Stop.
Stop. Stop.
You don't use the dishwashing liquid in this way.
It's such a waste.
But doesn't it clean better?
It will only be worse.
Be economical.
Hi.
How's your stay here?
Are you used to it?
In fact, the hotels are almost the same everywhere.
There is no such thing as whether I'm used to it or not.
I heard from the housekeeping manager
that the presales of Building No. 2 is doing well.
Yeah.
Mr. Bao's advertisement
really worked.
That's good.
I'm going to work out. I'll let you work.
Okay.
Have one.
Are you worried that Qi Lin will ruin
the opening ceremony tomorrow?
She is a very purposeful woman.
Now she stays put
and it makes me a little nervous.
No matter what,
I'll be by your side.
Do me a favor.
Let's change the topic.
By the way,
try the wine.
I just wanted to tell you
that the color is too ugly.
Let me taste it.
3 points.
Okay.
Have you learned piano before?
I did.
I learned from 5 to 18.
I gave up after going to university,
but I don't feel regret.
I'm not as talented as you.
No, it's not true.
I think everyone's style is different.
You have your own characteristics.
I really want to hear
your understanding of music.
Do you want
come to my room and talk about it?
No, no.
I won't show my slight skill before an expert.
It's shameful.
You have heard me play.
Don't be so stingy.
Let's go.
What's wrong with Ai?
I told her
to meet at the coffee shop at 10:30
and go back to the company together.
She won't answer the phone.
Don't worry.
Let's wait for a while.
Hello.
Okay, I'll be right there.
I have something to deal with
about the opening ceremony tomorrow.
I'll go there now.
Go ahead.
Okay.
The dim environment
helps us focus
and enjoy the music.
Have you heard this piece of music?
Yes.
Debussy's "Clair de Lune".
It's wonderful.
Clair de Lune is one of
the representative works of impressionism.
Debussy's innovation in music
makes one feel
quiet and hazy,
even a little bit sad.
The fluctuating melody
generates
this kind of cool-colored emotions,
allowing the imagination
of the brain to be fully utilized,
so that the music continuously
depicts the quiet night
and the pouring moonlight in the mind.
Ai.
What's a musician like
in your mind?
I think a good musician
writes poetry with musical notes.
In a sense,
a good musician is also a good poet,
a good thinker.
You are very special.
Have a drink.
Ai.
Another one?
I can't drink anymore.
I mean it.
One glass of wine can take me down.
I can't drink anymore.
Well, let me take you to rest.
Let's go.
Come on.
Get up.
Are you alright?
Ai? Ai?
Are you alright?
Hurry.
Relax.
What do you want to do?
Relax.
