[The first symptom of true love in a man is timidity, ]
[in a young woman, boldness. From Victor Hugo]
[Genuine Draft]
Hello? What?
Since when have you been driven mad by love?
Were you obsessed with seeing her in the darkness?
No, President Wang of Zhonghe made a sudden appointment with us for financing.
What did he say?
To meet at dinner. I've sent you the address. Don't mess it up.
Okay, I know.
Waiter.
What can I do?
The case is I've to go out for a while.
Later my friend will come here. I'll order in advance for her.
Okay.
What's more, she's Teng Xiaoxiao.
Please tell her I've something for her.
Give me the pen. Let me write it down.
This is my number. Call me when necessary.
Remember, Teng Xiaoxiao. Last name is Teng, first name Xiaoxiao.
Teng Xiaoxiao.
Okay, here you are.
- Pass me the menu.
- Okay.
Thanks.
Don't bother looking. I want a good... the best package.
No, two packages.
- Remember, Teng Xiaoxiao. - Okay.
Check, please.
This, no password.Pay by this.
Look, we can't find references for this part online, but go to the Reference Room.
Without references, our proposals can't pass tomorrow.
They're all gone, only us left.
What shall we do?
Let's go quickly to the Reference Room.
- Let's go. - Go.
- Shen Ying, have you finished, too? - Yes.
Only the two of us are left. We haven't found references yet.
- We'll go to the Reference Room. - Fighting.
- Excuse ourselves. - Bye.
- Bye.
Bye.
- Hui, we go first for references. - Bye.
[The money is not enough. From Mom]
Shen Ying.
Hui.
Finished?
Are you free tonight?
Pack things up. I'll take you somewhere.
See you downstairs.
Hello? Hello?
Do you have a reservation?
- From a friend, excuse me. - It's okay.
Sorry.
Hello? Hello?
Hello... I...
[Kitty& Daniel Movie-themed Restaurant]
Come on.
Cheers.
President Zhang. Hi, everyone.
Why didn't you wait until I come?
It's typical for your YO Media to be late. We can't wait because we are hungry.
I'm kidding.
- I'll punish myself by three cups. - I agree.
- Okay. - Welcome.
Let me introduce. Shen Ying, a new comer to our company.
Just take her out to see life.
What a pretty!
Sit by President Zhang.
Here.
President Hong.
Mumu, haven't seen you for long.
Wait for my toast.
A fresh graduate?
- It's over a year since I graduated.
- Over a year.
Pretty good. Young and promising.
You joined YO Media this young.
You'll have a bright future.
President Zhang, you're so insightful.
She now works on Under the Mask,
responsible for topic selection and creativity, and full of ideas.
As a local saying goes in my hometown, honest children do great things.
The less talkative one is,
the more creative one will be.
President Zhang, many sayings in your hometown.
Many other things you don't know.
Well...
Shen Ying, don't wear a long face.
President Zhang praised you for a while.
Shouldn't you drink a toast to him?
- Come on.
- I can't drink.
Don't be so shy.
I'm not asking you to drink that much, just a little.
just a little.
Take it.
Hurry, be active.
Drink some.
- President Zhang. - Well.
Too shy.
- See? You're fine with that. - Enough.
Don't push such a little girl.
Come on, let's talk business. How's it going?
The fund of my program has been appropriated, but it's still up in the air.
Don't mention it. - Let me finish the two cups of wine I owe, okay?
- No problem.
Come on, I first.
I just drank a cup. Now it's the second.
President Zhang.
Great!
President Hong, what a hollow leg!
I'll go to the toilet.
It's empty, satisfied?
Come on.
- Where are you going?
- The toilet.
Excuse myself. It's the first time she has been around, too shy.
Let me have a look. Await me!
- What're you doing?
- Hui, I can't drink. I want to go home.
You know who they are?
YO Media operates so many programs.
It's not a big deal to shelve one or two of them.
However influential Under the Mask was, it was shelved suddenly.
You're still an intern now.
It's hard to tell which department you will go to, or whether you can stay in our company.
They're all advertisers having worked with our company for years.
They're our clients.
It's a science to serve our clients.
I'll take you here to study today.
Don't wear a long face.
The chance is in your hand.
Good luck.
Let me eat something.
Cheers.
I changed the meeting place suddenly. - Did I disturb you?
- No.
I'm really glad to see you before you go abroad.
Many young people cherish opportunities,
but few thank them.
I don't like ostentatious young people, - but you're very steady.
- Thanks.
You know why I chose your CUN IT out of so many IT companies
on that day's Venture Capital Conference?
In terms of development and originality, few are better than ours, but it doesn't mean none.
I guess you value our future development and endurance.
Right. I'll buy yours out for ten years
because I believe your project will be a miracle.
Thanks.
So without packaging, CUN IT is still formidable.
Don't worry. I have great confidence in our team.
To you. Thank you all.
Let me fill your cup.
It's... What's it?
- Do you think I still need time? - Yeah.
I thought you'd get to know more.
The real investment is decided at the first time.
Hesitation means the project isn't good enough.
I believe CUN IT won't let me down.
Do you have to think over it?
- Do you have a pen? - Yes.
yes
Thank you very much.
President Wang, thank you a lot.
- Keep it up, young talent! - Thanks.
thanks
Come on, let's drink a toast to our young talent.
- Congratulations, Presidents Duan and Wang! - Cheers.
Thank you.
Is he avenging himself on me?
So naive.
Hello, I'm Wang Xin.
I will not go to Germany with my dad, but stay in Beijing for a few days.
- Call me when you're free. - Okay.
- Bye. - Thanks.
Duan, aren't you here for business?
Why're you hitting on a girl?
She's President Wang's daughter.
President Wang's daughter? Wait, how's it going?
We ate for less than an hour. What do you think?
What is he dissatisfied with?
Listen, President Wang's the one who values us most.
If he's dissatisfied, others are more dissatisfied.
I told you not to be heady. Why must you hit on President Wang's daughter?
No more guessing.
Listen, once we get the money,
call our men back
who accompany wives at home, lie idle or hang around.
Call them all back to work, including you.
Is there anything I can't do?
Bravo!
Gently.
Listen, I'll be a man with assets of millions of yuan annually.
When at school, didn't your teacher tell you
less than 50 million yuan isn't assets, but a deposit at most.
I don't care.
As soon as the contract is ready,
- 50 million yuan is a snap. - A snap.
Don't be arrogant.
Now the next-step development is the main task. Don't drop the ball, okay?
I drop the ball? How can I?
Listen, you can't find a senior, professional
and lovely senior programmer like me anywhere.
How much money do you a lovely senior programmer have in card?
I... - Not much.
- How much?
Several hundred thousand. Listen, I can't use it. - It's for me to marry a wife.
- I know. Go to SKP to spend all your money.
Spend it all before we get the money?
President Wang's daughter will stay here for some time.
I see. Go.
Here?
Hui, thank you today. - I'll be back.p
wait
Nobody did anything to you.
If you feel wronged, I won't ask you for such things later,
but if you can't serve as a foil on such occasion,
it's hard for you to go further.
At her age, Qin Qiao has climbed to her present position.
You think she experienced less than you?
When you're a nobody, don't take you as a somebody.
Take it. Now yours.
Take it. Think it over.
Bye.
Good night.
You're back. Why this late?
Why not turn on the light?
I'm about to go to bed.
Tell me the truth. Did you drink? - How much?
- A bit.
There you go. Why didn't you ask me?
A sister came from our hometown, so we drank a bit.
Don't drink much. You can't drink. Look at your flush.
Didn't you eat with your friend?
Don't mention it. I stood Duan Chong up on that exhibition.
Guess what? He stood me up today.
Luckily, he didn't come.
You know how much the average spend is at that restaurant where he asked me to invite him to dinner?
Guess.
- One hundred? - Over a thousand.
Luckily, he didn't come. What if he came?
Or I would be washing dishes in its kitchen.
You invited Duan Chong?
He promised to give me the files that day, so I treated him to dinner as an apology,
but he didn't come.
It's not a big deal, but I can't get though to him.
Did he play a prank on me?
Is there any chemistry between you two?
Nothing.
Who knows if he's fooling me around?
Amazing. You went shopping, Shen Ying?
My sister bought two, so she gave me one.
Chanel!
Your sister is too generous. Can I be her sister?
- You bought this lipstick today? - Yes.
yes
Let me try.
So beautiful.
Wonderful.
Well, no harm in spending money.
Now I feel my face doesn't deserve my mouth.
To put on such a brand lipstick, I feel I become noble and delicate at once.
I finally understand girls who can't stop buying.
Look, who doesn't want such a good thing?
Each person only has one mouth. Why bother buying so many?
It's called Lipstick Economy.
Think of those luxuries, each worth tens of thousands of yuan.
Who'll buy them at will?
However, A lipstick costs only two or three hundred yuan.
When you buy it, you'll feel happy that you participate in consumption and master your life.
Isn't it self-deception?
Not exactly.
After all, you get something you really want indeed.
But over-consumption is not recommended.
You know, Feng Jia came to borrow money from me today.
- She came to you for money? - Yeah.
Even if she pulls all my hair, I can't lend her a penny.
Besides, Huang Lu and Wang Yao said
Feng Jia turned to them two as well because of the overdue online loan.
She had to borrow money for her bank deposits were frozen.
Wasn't she rich before?
When Nuo said she was carrying a fake bag, I thought she didn't have to,
but now it seems she's too lavish with money to repay the loan.
Didn't she borrow money from you?
If she did, you must refuse to make her learn a lesson.
Here you're.
So nice.
Hello?
Go downstairs.
Why? Look what time it is, dude!
See you at the community gate. I've something to tell you.
Wait... Hello? Hello?
So annoying.
Shen Ying, I'll go out for a while.
Take care.
Okay, just go downstairs.
What for?
Don't ask. Go. Wait, where're we going? I'm wearing pajamas.
Fine, let's go. I... I don't go.
Wait, dude,
I'm wearing pajamas. Where're we going?
You're fine with or without pajamas.
Don't talk nonsense. Are you okay?
To be honest, a bit exciting.
You're really a drama.
Did you stand me up because I stood you up last time?
Of course, not. Don't get me wrong.
I didn't come last time.
I ordered packages and left files there for you.
As an IT man, your mind is so weird.
Did it take you so long to message me?
What's more, I went to that restaurant
whose average spend is over a thousand yuan.
How much can I earn in a month?
I have to pay next month's rent.
I didn't want you to pay at all.
If you go out with me later, don't worry about money.
Don't fool me around.
Tell me where we are going.
I'm hungry,
rather hungry for I didn't eat much.
Let's eat something.
Come on, I'm wearing pajamas.
It will suit you well.
[Bittern Flapjack] - Come here. - Come on.
I'm wearing pajamas.
There aren't many people now. See?
New Beijing, new diners, inherited old flavor;
ancient capital, traditional Hutong, culture-loaded snacks.
Let's go. Bittern?
- No, I dislike bittern flapjack. - It's okay.
- I can't stand the smell. - Have a try.
I really...
Take care. So crowded.
Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
Sorry, excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
There's no seat.
Let's go. Let's go. Seats.
Here. Sit down.
- Waiter. - Coming.
Waiter, please clean it up.
I'm coming. Line up here. Wait a minute.
We take two seats.
- Help me reserve them. - No problem.
Yummy, I'm not cheating you.
Hurry up, please.
Excuse me. Sorry, excuse me.
Hello, I want large intestines plus lungs, and small intestines plus lungs.
- Okay. - For here.
Quickly. Quickly. Quickly.
Sorry, excuse me.
Too hot.
Sorry.
Duan Chong, are you kidding me?
Are you kidding me? No, I'm not.
But who told you to do so?
Not the case.
I don't know what to eat after thinking in the car.
Listen, after my consideration, I decided to take you here.
It's a time-honored brand. You must taste it.
Don't you think it smells like shit?
It's smelly when eating, but yummy when swallowing.
Hurry to taste it. No, I refuse.
If you have a taste,
I'll pick you up for free in all weathers.
- I can go by subway.
- Then...
Don't you want to interview me?
Try this, I not only allow you to interview me,
but give you all CUN IT's entrepreneurship info
for your reference, okay?
I'll help myself.
Yummy.
How do you feel?
Yummy?
Swallow it, it'll be yummy.
How do you feel?
How?
Eat more.
- How do you feel? - Quite yummy.
Comfortable. Do you like it?
- Not as bad as I thought. - Right.
I can't cheat you.
Wipe your sweat?
Why did you take me out this late?
- Just to push the envelope? - No.
Tell me what you want.
I don't know for now.
I'll tell you when I know.
There you go.
Well, I'll take one away for Shen Ying.
Let me do it. I'll order two for you.
You can have it for breakfast tomorrow.
Await me here.
The queue's too long.
- Mister, sit here. - Thanks, Miss.
- I'm fine. - Thanks.
Promise me you'll help me when I'm back.
Wait until I finish my topic selection.
- In fact, I... - In fact, what?
Nothing.
We're preparing pilot episodes for All In.
Under the Mask is also affected.
I worry if my topic can be passed.
- Let me help you. - No, thanks.
I want to finish it on my own.
I can't let you help me every time, can I?
I'll turn to you when I hit the bottleneck. Okay?
I'm fine.
Our Shen Ying has grown out of me.
It's not the case. I just want to finish it on my own.
Come on, I'm kidding.
Independence is good, isn't it?
We used to say
some high school classmates went to the hometown.
Most of them are married and have children.
While the 16th floor of YO Media is full of females,
and most of them are single.
Nothing wrong with independence.
It means the society progresses, doesn't it?
I think you can.
Take care.
- Be careful. - Okay.
- Caution many things here. - Okay.
Hello?
Where're you?
Don't you know we're moving today?
So where are you?
Don't we move?
Cut the crap.
Well, see you later.
Don't dawdle. I'll hang up.
This!
- Take care. - Okay.
- Man, help me move this in. - Okay.
And here. Hey, man!
Don't pile things at the door.
Move the sofa inside.
Put the TV against the wall.
Put all these boxes over there.
Spread that out for me.
Hello, Shen Ying. Did you arrive?
Excuse me.
You're at the lift? Wait a second, I'll be right there.
Bye.
Teng Xiaoxiao! - What's up? - What happened?
Here, Teng Xiaoxiao!
- I don't know. - I don't know.
Who's that handsome man?
Who's he?
- Go. - Go ahead.
Don't be shy.
Hurry to go.
- Go to him. - Come on.
- Don't be shy. - Come on.
- Be brave. Fighting! - Go.
Yeah, go!
This is big news.
- Hurry. - Come on.
Hurry up.
Quickly.
Bro, what're you doing? Are you killing me?
Aren't you surprised? It's for you.
I'm shocked!
Go, hurry to go. Why're you here?
To confess my love.
So many people, especially men in your company. Not a few of them must like you.
If I don't act quickly, I'll be alone for my rest life,
so last night I wanted you to be my girlfriend.
Promise him! Promise him!
But we need a sense of ritual, right?
So today I intend to announce to the world,
to everyone present here,
from now on Teng Xiaoxiao's my girlfriend!
- Congratulations! - Thanks.
Hurry to go. Please go.
- Promise me. - Go!
- Promise him! - Why are you so unreasonable?
Promise him!
What're so many of you doing here?
- Mister, do you work for this company? - No.
You've badly affected the order here.
- Please go... - Sorry, Mister.
- I'll let him go now. - Come on.
- Hurry up. - Dismiss!
Don't you hear it? Or I'll lose my job.
Come on.
What about this, promise to give me a chance.
Well, I promise. I'll give you the chance. Go.
Really?
Go.
See you.
- Dismiss! - Back to work!
Mister, excuse me. I'm sorry.
Leave!
Dismiss! Back to work! You're late.
No wonder something unknown is against me in the southeast.
It turns out to be him.
Are you okay? Are you shocked?
No, I'm not. I'm preparing for the meeting.
Quite nervous.
Topic Selection Meeting? Take it easy. You can make it.
I don't know how many meetings I can attend.
I've to cherish them.
Don't you have the mood to work
after receiving such a big bunch of roses early on a weekday morning?
IT men are rarely so romantic.
Come on.
He's quite a jerk and drama.
I'm almost driven mad by him.
But to be honest, it's quite weird.
With many people at the gate in the morning, you'll be affected.
I think you'd better talk to him.
Just this once.
Before I get back to the 16th floor,
no one can affect me.
Go.
What a Mary Sue in reality!
Teng Xiaoxiao's really something.
Do you envy her? You can learn from her.
Are you mad?
Hui! Hui,
here's the info you gave me last time.
I looked it over, and picked up several highlights.
Do you have any comment?
The first two are good. We can discuss and,
choose one on the meeting.
Now we still have to reduce the cost.
You've improved a lot.
I did all this myself,
on the basis of your info, of course.
By the way, Hui. It was my fault that night.
I was so nervous that I wasn't in a good mood.
I hope you don't mind.
It proves I chose the right person.
- Back to work. - Okay, thanks, Hui.
Your bag!
Nuo,
you're looking for me.
We've introduced new programs.
Send several programs's journals to the Finance Department asap.
They're needed for quarterly audit.
By the way, what's wrong with your team workers recently,
less efficient than interns?
I'll warn them on the meeting.
Nuo, Shen Ying has been doing well recently,
originating two programs in a row.
Why not talk to the supervisor about making her a full member?
Yes, she has been doing well lately.
Thanks to your guidance of letting me
give full play to my men.
Come on, don't flatter me.
To be serious,
it's a tough week.
All In will be online soon.
Everyone awaits the contest result,
so we should work harder.
If it's trendy, she's bound to be a full member.
Nuo, see you.
Okay.
Come on, the caring boy is giving candies away to you to make you sweet.
Don't take them all.
So romantic.
Too sweet for me to eat candies.
Everything I eat now is sour.
I don't want this.
After witnessing Teng Xiaoxiao's PDA,
aren't you angry?
Can you still be happy?
No, I can't.
I don't understand.
- What's so good about Teng Xiaoxiao? - Yeah.
It seems she's the only one working hard for life. See?
I was working at 2:30 a.m. in the middle of the night.
Why must Teng Xiaoxiao be the heroine every time?
Why don't I have a boyfriend?
I don't understand.
Shen Ying, you're so close to Xiaoxiao.
Don't you envy her at all?
Yeah.
I do envy her.
Very much. Extremely.
But is envy useful?
No, it isn't.
Bai, don't you have a boyfriend? Don't join in the fun.
I said nothing.
You'd better finish your work asap.
- Have you finished? - I...
- Not yet? - I... I finished.
Finished? Go on.
Well.
There you go. What an awkward silence!
[You have changed recently.]
