[Episode 13]
Manager Wang, have some water.
Thank you, Miss Xia.
Please take a seat too, Miss Xia.
I'm good. You can sit.
Then I'll stand up as well.
Well, I'm really sorry.
We didn't have enough time to finish the proposal.
Can you give me one more day?
There's no need. What you had yesterday was perfectly fine.
I reviewed it carefully after I got back yesterday,
That budget sheet was very detailed and practical.
I'm sorry I didn't read it carefully yesterday.
We'll just purchase the products based on your budget sheet.
Looking forward to our collaboration.
Yes, yes, looking forward to it.
- I'll be leaving now. - You're leaving?
- Thank you, thank you. - This way please.
Okay.
- Thank you. -Take care.
How did it go?
This guy suddenly told me that there's no need to redo it.
The original one is good enough.
- Isn't that great? - Don't you think it's weird?
At least you don't have to put in overtime.
And you don't have to to blame me for not waking you up last night.
Why didn't you wake me up?
You were sleeping like a rock. How am I supposed to I wake you up?
It was our employees who made trouble for you.
Well, won't you reconsider about holding the shares?
You're the founder of Huixin Technology.
How's that relevant to me?
You gave me the money to start it up.
If it weren't for the 1,000 dollars and your encouragement,
I would have given it up and returned to my hometown.
So you're my original shareholder.
I lent the 1,000 dollars to you as your living expenses.
I didn't make any investment.
OK, OK. I'll always keep the 10% shares for you.
Unless my company is out of business, you can take it whenever you want.
You rarely ask people for help.
This time, is it because of her?
You're doing great as an assistant!
I don't have much time today.
Let's meet some other time and have a good chat.
Great. See you!
Bye.
Sheng Zhening! Have you finished your weekly report?
Almost done.
Isn't that Manager Chen from Huixing Technology?
Who is it?
Chen Zixuan.
- You know each other? - No.
Then what were you talking about if you don't know each other?
He said I was a good assistant.
You're lying.
I'm sorry, you made a mistake.
We're not a couple.
She's... She's my little sister.
Xiaoyan, my friend is still in love with that guy.
But he only thinks of her as a sister.
I see.
Then what does she do now?
What else can she do? Go after him.
How? He's thinking of her as a sister.
Let me tell you. It's easier for a girl to approach a guy, than a guy to approach a girl.
And if he thinks of her as a sister, there must be something going on.
It'll work.
Then tell me exactly what she should do.
Be patient. Take it slow and wait for the opportunity.
Wait for the opportunity?
That's so abstract. Can you make it more specific?
Just show him that she cares about him in an unexpected way.
In an unexpected way...
Five heart-shaped eggs for you.
Isn't it delicious?
- GM Qin. We have problems with the renovation of Building 2. - What happened?
It's not a big deal though. We're short of high-quality eco-friendly paint.
The shareholders think it's too expensive and are not willing to pay for it.
So the construction team is asking if we want to use a cheaper one.
The paint is really important. We can't just use cheaper ones
If the shareholders are not willing to pay,
I'll pay for it myself.
GM Qin, you've put so much effort into helping GM Sheng renovate Building No.2.
The shareholders don't seem happy about it.
Never mind what they think. Do as I said.
OK.
Xia Qian, my friend told me that he's very satisfied about your work.
I should thank you for recommending my company.
You're welcome.
By the way, Xia Qian. Are you dating anyone now?
Of course not.
That's great!
I have a cousin who's still single. He's very nice.
And he owns a restaurant and a bar. He's also well-off.
- You guys should meet. -There's really no need to.
Hey, Xia Qian. You see,
I've introduced a business for you and it worked.
Maybe this matchmaking thing could work as well!
You should go meet him.
If he's not the right one for you, you don't have to meet again.
- But if he's not the right one, why should I waste my time... - It's a deal!
- Xu Lu! - Trust me!
I have an eye for it.
It tastes so bitter!
Hi! Can you get me some sugar and cream please? Thanks.
We've ran out of them.
I saw them on the table when I came in.
- Help yourself. - Hey!
Your assistant...
He's just like that. He's got an attitude.
Try the fish.
[Xu Lu]
- Hi, what's up? - Hello, Xia Qian.
Let's meet at Sunset Bar at 3pm tomorrow afternoon. See you then.
OK. See you tomorrow afternoon.
Where are you meeting?
At a Bar. 3pm tomorrow afternoon.
It's the first time you meet, and you're drinking?
He owns the bar.
We're just meeting there. We don't have to drink.
But...
But... What if you get along,
and are in the mood for drinking?
Why are you suddenly so interested in whether I will drink?
As your assistant, I feel that it is my responsibility to remind you
that drinking is not good for you.
OK.
Hey, what if he's in the mood and treats me to a good wine?
Shall I drink it or not?
I'm full.
You're full already?
Dr. He, there's a new client scheduled for this afternoon.
Right. You need to prepare some assessment forms for me.
Oh, by the way. Please look at this.
I think...
What brings you here?
Darling, I'm here to have lunch with you.
Dr. He, I'll go back to work.
I've made a lot of food. Why don't you eat with us?
I'm good, thank you. I'll leave you guys to enjoy your lunch.
Bye.
That's a lot of food!
Of course, I've spent the whole morning preparing for it.
Let me help.
Here.
Darling, I've made all these by myself.
Try them.
It's delicious.
Mengmeng, I thought you were busy at the bakery. You don't have to cook for me every day.
The cafeteria here has really good food.
Why? Don't you like the food I made?
I'll make some other dishes tomorrow.
No, I love it.
You don't want to eat with me?
No.
Mengmeng, that's not true.
I'm worried about you. I'm afraid you'll be tired.
Here.
This way, please.
Thank you.
Would you like anything to drink?
Well...
I'll have a coffee, please.
Great.
Are you Xiao Yan?
I'm over here!
Oh, I'm sorry.
- Xu Lu. - Xia Qian!
I'm so sorry.
He took a trip to purchase some stuff today,
and the flight was delayed. He probably can't fly back today.
I'm so sorry.
I apologize.
Sure, sure. No worries. I'll be leaving then.
Sure, okay. We'll meet some other time.
Great. Talk to you soon.
Hi, please cancel my coffee.
Thank you.
Do you work nearby?
You have hypoglycemia too?
The candy.
I'll take it as a gift then.
Bye.
GM Qin, you're so early.
We haven't opened yet.
Do me a favor. Same as usual.
Okay.
In a bad mood?
The liquor
can help you relax for a short while.
But when you go out of the gate of my bar,
a lot of things you still have to face them.
What do you think, GM Qin?
You're a bartender, and you're trying to talk your guest out of drinking? Don't you want to make money?
Of course I do.
But I'll look in the long run when you're my guest, GM Qin.
It really makes me curious.
GM Qin, you can have whatever you want.
What could bother you? I'm very curious.
It's nothing serious.
It's just that sometimes you have to be drunk to confide.
I see.
Stop feeding the chicken. Let's have dinner together.
We don't need to write this down?
Yeah.
I think actually...
Darling.
It's time to get off work. It's getting late.
Dr. He, you can go home first. I'll prepare the documents.
Thank you for your help!
Darling, it's time to go.
Thank you, Xiaotong.
Thank you.
You've treated me to dinner so many times, this time it's my turn.
No, it's my treat.
You've been treating my chicken to food as well.
But the owner of the chicken hasn't eaten yet.
So you'll eat with me.
Is there anything serious you want to talk to me
or you just want to have dinner with me?
Actually, there is one thing I want to talk to you.
I see.
What is it?
Excuse me.
- Thank you. - This is the honey water for you.
The honey water is for you.
For me?
I smell alcohol on you. I assumed you've been drinking with a client?
The honey water will help you sober up. You shouldn't drink alcohol before you eat anything. It's bad for your stomache.
OK.
Right, what is it that you wanted to say?
Well... Right, I wanted to ask you,
the cat's shedding whiskers, is that normal?
Oh, the cat.
It's fine. I used to have a kitten that shed whiskers too.
It's quite normal during puberty. It won't happen when it grows up.
That's good to know.
Well, shall we eat first?
Here, try this.
This is their specialty.
You should try this too.
And this. Try this.
Here.
Wait a moment.
You've got...
Your beard is falling off too?
I'm just joking!
I'll wipe it for you. There's something here. Don't move.
Done.
Have some food.
Okay.
Isn't that delicious?
Yeah.
I didn't see you when I came back to the office this afternoon.
I felt a little unwell, so I came back directly.
What happened? Are you alright?
I'm alright.
How did the blind date go?
The guy didn't show up. It's rescheduled for tomorrow.
Tomorrow... You have to go again?
I have to.
Based on my blind date experience,
if I want him to stop pestering me, the best way is to tell him directly
that I'm not interested and please don't call again.
Let's eat.
By the way,
The temperature will drop tomorrow. Make sure you wrap up a bit more. Don't catch a cold.
Okay, I will.
Um...
There is something
I've always wanted to tell you.
Maybe now is the time.
What is it?
The first time we met, I was drawn to you.
And I liked you a lot.
So, if you don't mind,
You can be my little sister
and call me "brother".
Don't worry. I'll treat you as my own sister.
Just like Ning Meng.
Ning Meng?
Mhm.
Little sister?
Little sister will do.
Those who are closer get first.
Tell your friend not to feel frustrated.
I think they are making progress.
You think?
Oh.
Where is Qian?
She's on a blind date.
Blind date?
Where?
Tell me!
You look very nice today, Miss Xia.
Thank you.
In fact, there is a person I love.
But she is not from a well-off background.
My family objects to our relationship
and forces me on blind dates.
I'm sorry.
I see.
No need to apologize.
In fact, I'm also here to tell you I don't trust blind dates.
Perfect.
So this won't be awkward.
Likewise.
Try our drinks.
You own this bar?
Yes, I do.
Boss, the bartender made a new drink.
You are the guest. You'll be more objective.
See if you'll like it.
OK.
Unique color.
And the taste?
Refreshing, isn't it?
They are on drinking terms?
Maybe she's into him?
Who's drinking?
Check the staff group chat.
Miss Xia,
here is our membership card.
Please come back.
Sure.
We have a lot of young staff.
I'll bring them here.
Please do.
OK. I'll call you then.
No problem.
Then I'll be off.
Sorry to interrupt.
She's my girlfriend.
We had a row today. She ran out.
Mr. Lin. He's my friend, a bit mental.
Sorry about that.
What are you doing?
Sheng Zhening, let go of me.
Let go now.
Ah-yah.
You said you had made it clear with him.
Does it take that long?
And why were you drinking with him?
Well...
What does that have to do with you?
A lot!
Didn't you say
I could ask you if I have questions?
If you keep going out on blind dates, how can I ask?
I just learned how to do statements.
Can't even write a weekly report.
I say,
why can't you invest more time in me?
I'm the boss or you're the boss?
Sheng Zhening!
Come.
Hey!
Let's drink.
Thanks. Today,
you ruined their
blind date for me.
You like Qian, don't you?
So do I.
Here.
Come on.
It's fine.
Drink it.
Mo Xiaoyan drank more. Already got his stomach pumped. He's fine now.
Sheng Zhening is OK. Don't worry.
I don't get it. How come they bought adulterated liquor?
Who knows. Cheap, maybe.
Unbelievable.
Um...
I'll stay with Xiaoyan.
You go with Sheng Zhening.
He should be able to walk.
OK.
Hmm...
What a smell.
Sheng Zhening.
Hmm?
Are you OK?
I can take more.
Forget it.
Come.
I'll take you home.
Hey, watch your steps.
Are you OK?
Hang on, stand still.
Don't move. I'll hail a taxi.
No...
No taxi. I feel dizzy.
You feel sick?
Fine, here.
Lean on me.
How much did you drink? You smell so bad.
Be still.
Look at you,
how come you both drank so much?
Can you still walk? Should we get a cab?
I can.
Ah.
I want that.
Want wha...
The baked sweet potato?
Yupp.
Fine.
You stay here. I'll go and get it.
Stand still.
Hmm.
No...
I'm coming, too.
Hi antie.
Stand still.
I'll take one, please.
Hey!
Hand off. It's hot.
What are you doing?
Here.
Thanks.
Sit still.
I'll peel it for you.
Hmm.
Ah!
Hmm?
Does it hurt?
I got burnt.
It's fine.
Wait.
A bit hot. Be careful.
Here.
Take this.
Hey!
Hmm?
Ouch!
I got burnt.
You got burnt?
Blow it for me.
Blow it.
Blow...
How can you get burnt without even touching it?
Ouch!
Here.
Yummy!
No more?
Sobered up yet?
No more.
Yeah...
You say that now.
Goodness...
You smell. What are you mumbling?
I like you.
Hmm?
Sleep tight.
I...
What?
I...like...you.
Something on my face?
Nope.
Then why are you staring at me?
Don't you remember what you said last night?
What did I say?
Ah...
When you get drunk,
sometimes...you talk nonsense,
acting strange.
So...
If I offended you in any way,
I didn't mean to.
The alcohol
is to blame
Really?
So...what did I say?
You said you liked
baked sweet potatoes.
I'm really not into street food. But,
baked sweet potato is an exception.
It's delicious.
I offered and you said no.
That friend of yours isn't of high maintenance, is she?
High maintenance?
Probably not.
She has to dress up a bit. Be more feminine.
Then the guy won't see her as a sister.
- You are here. - Shuangshuang.
He's all yours. Much better now.
So...this is roughly what happened.
Mo Xiaoyan, do you think that guy has feelings for my friend?
What?
How come you and Shuangshuang both have a "friend" that I don't know?
I've known you two this long. Could there be any of your friends that I don't know?
My high-school mate. You know her.
I think a drunk "I like you" doesn't mean he really likes your friend.
As you said, he didn't call her name.
Therefore, he might refer to someone else. Right?
But what he said, "I like you",
really bothers my friend.
Before, they got along fine.
But ever since,
my friend really feels awkward around him.
No need. Ask her to test him.
How?
Still nothing from her.
I think we should slow down.
Play hard-to-get. Simps end up gaining nothing.
What's a "simp"?
It's not important.
I think we can't just do things without letting her know.
Play cool...when she's used to you. Then...
suddenly you're aloof, then she realizes how much you mean to her.
How come suddenly you know so much?
I was expecting those questions from you, boss.
So I read a lot about relationships.
About pre-marriage, post-marriage, sweet love
sweet period, silent treatment...you name it.
I never know you can be this thorough.
Text him. See if he replies immediately.
[22:12]
Are you aleep?
Also, don't text back immediately.
Let her wait at least for half an hour.
[Not yet. You?]
Not yet. You?
Ask him out. See if he's keen.
Wanna go out and buy baked sweet potatoes?
Also, don't revolve your life around her.
She needs to know that you are a busy man.
No. Busy.
[No. Busy.]
Well?
Very aloof. She probably overthinks.
No need to jump to a conclusion.
There's a more direct way.
More direct?
Um... I'm sorry.
Dragging you out this late.
No worries.
It's just a contract. Is drinking really necessary?
I don't like it. But what can I do?
Ah...dizzy.
Can I lean on you for a moment?
Go ahead.
Try close contact.
See if he responds.
Be cool! You must be cool.
Don't let your guard down because of little gestures.
Be cool.
What's wrong?
- I sprained my ankle. - Can you still walk?
I can't.
What now? Can you carry me on your back?
- Huh? - Carry me.
I'll help you. Here.
Take it slow.
It's not that bad.
Just a slight sprain.
How did I let that happen?
You are getting old.
The road was bumpy.
It's OK.
Take it slow.
