[Wanna Be]

What?

The contract has been terminated?

The brand just sent an email.

Impossible.

I've worked with Rachel for three years.

The contract was renewed every year.

I just met the person in charge not long ago.

We even talked about changing styles...

So

your new product this time

wants a sunny, healthy,

positive image?

Yes, that's right.

But I think

the previous accessible luxury style suits me better.

Right?

Exactly.

This isn't something we boast about ourselves.

It's widely recognized.

Indeed.

So, unfortunately,

then we...

But

if you insist, it's no problem.

After all, I'm a professional model,

I can handle any style.

Don't worry.

By the way,

I heard your sales this year

have multiplied compared to last year.

Congratulations.

As the brand ambassador,

I also feel a great sense of achievement.

I've done my part, however small.

But regarding my compensation,

I hope you'll take circumstances into account.

After all, we need to work

and grow together.

You mean

the endorsement fee should also double?

That's not up to me.

You'll have to discuss it with Ms. Ling.

Pleasure doing business with you.

[Hollywood Times]

So that day, they wanted to reject me.

And I dared to raise the fee?

Who took my endorsement?

No.

Your use of the word "took" is wrong.

Your styles are different to begin with.

Han Yijing?

You Ning.

Listen to me,

I'm already personally negotiating

new brands for you.

There are so many that I can't even keep up.

I promise

I'll get you a better one.

But if you keep fixating on Rachel,

no one can help you.

[Episode 6] [Daydreams Are Just Dreams]

That old hag

teamed up with her niece to mess with me.

I'll make them

regret it

and get revenge!

You're so sure it's her?

Sunny, healthy, positive.

Who else could it be?

I must expose Han Yijing's hypocrisy,

slap the contract on the old witch

and terminate my contract!

Ms. Ling.

Ms. Ling.

Xing Mo!

Alright, stop drinking.

Here.

Just

get it all out to me,

but don't go out and make a scene.

You'll regret it later.

Even you're bullying me.

Don't be ungrateful.

I'm the one who has been wronged.

You know very well

when international brands like Rachel

choose brand ambassadors,

the company goes through rounds and rounds of screening

before it is finally decided by headquarters.

Even if it's Han Yijing,

it has nothing to do with her personally.

Ms. Ling can't decide either.

And when the company chooses a brand ambassador,

they have to submit a new proposal

and go through the process again.

You and Han Yijing are both from ACME.

Why would she do that?

Because she's Han Yijing's aunt.

She is also a founder of ACME.

After all these years,

don't you know her style?

You understand the reason.

You're just deliberately looking for an excuse

to paint yourself as the victim.

To put it bluntly,

you just can't handle losing.

Mo.

Be honest.

Do you have feelings for her?

I hit the nail on the head, didn't I?

I noticed it a long time ago.

I didn't say anything

because I didn't want to hurt your feelings.

Alright.

You're drunk. Hurry up and leave.

Don't cause a scene here.

You've been lurking by her side as a brother

for so many years

because Jinyuan was there.

Now that they've finally broken up,

the opportunity is right in front of you,

but

you started to worry about Ms. Ling.

She is both your benefactor who brought you into the industry

and Han Yijing's only family.

So you don't dare confess.

Right?

What are you laughing at?

It's funny.

You'd be better off as a screenwriter

than a model.

Stop pretending.

We've known each other for almost ten years

and I've never seen you in a relationship.

Could it be that you're...?

This is just between us.

Alright.

Find a good lawyer.

Good luck with the termination.

Remember to lock up when you leave.

Xing Mo.

Are you messing with me again?

You Ning is fine.

Don't worry,

Ms. Ling.

Thank you

for the instant noodles.

Took a day to say it?

I was drunk yesterday.

If I said anything inappropriate, please...

He probably forgot already.

How much was the cab ride?

I'll pay you back.

What?

Did you eat gunpowder?

Where are you?

At home.

About to go to sleep.

You're alone?

Where's Ms. Ling?

How would I know?

She has her own place.

Alright. Good night.

Weird.

[Yijing's Work Chat] According to reliable sources,

the list will be announced tomorrow

at 3 PM sharp.

The four global fashion capitals?

Paris, Milan, New York, London.

Perfect.

What does "No-no tribe" mean?

[Hailiwang Seafood] Saying no to brands.

Not caring about labels or origins.

Only caring about their own comfort

and personal preferences.

What about preppy girls...

What about "preppy look"?

Preppy, campus style.

Like Gossip Girlfriend...

Gossip Girl.

And

the outfits in Meteor Garden.

Not bad, Fan.

I always thought you were just messing around

and having fun.

I didn't expect you to prepare so thoroughly.

I just learned it last night.

What's the use?

All for nothing.

Not necessarily.

Learning isn't just for the competition,

but for a better self.

Whether you can become a better self

comes down to today.

Nervous?

What are you talking about?

Well,

everyone calls me

Jia the Confident.

Yijing.

Linda, let me see the list.

Notify those who are on it.

Yijing, why are you here?

Has the list been posted?

Not yet.

There's an issue with the official website.

We're notifying everyone now.

Let me see it.

I'm supposed to teach the lessons on fashion, right?

I want to get to know them in advance

so I can tailor my teaching methods.

Ms. Han, you're so thoughtful.

Thank you for your hard work.

[Liu Jia, Kong Ernuo, Zhou Lu, Tian Chu, Song Chuan]

You're really Jia the Confident.

What's wrong?

Didn't make it?

I can't come in this Sunday.

Why?

Oh right.

Your dad went to the hospital today.

Is something...?

Mr. Jia Fan.

Please report to the following address

at 10 AM on July 6th

with your ID.

Fangyuan Building, ACME.

Are you crazy?

Crazy or won the lottery?

Mom.

Better than winning the lottery.

We made it!

You found a job?

Not me, it's Fan.

Actually, it's me.

You're in luck today, old man.

Today's snakehead is fresh.

Try it right now.

How long were you planning to hide it from me?

What am I hiding?

I wanted to tell you after I got through

to make you happy.

I went to the hospital today.

Dr. Lin told me everything.

What did he tell you?

You got the results?

Don't listen to him.

I'm fine.

Look,

I'm quick with my eyes

and hands.

Your diagnosis has been confirmed.

A healthy person wouldn't keep getting injured.

Do you think I'm actually blind?

Let's not talk about this today, okay?

Your son just won a competition

with only a 10% pass rate.

Stop going.

What are you talking about?

Quit the seafood shop.

Stop doing dangerous things

like using knives

and riding motorcycles.

Go to the hospital as soon as possible.

No way.

You know it can't be cured.

I can't just sit around

and wait here all day.

I've been prepared for this since a long time ago.

I had thought it through back then.

If I can't avoid it, I'll live well

and not waste a single day.

People like me have fewer opportunities to begin with.

This time, I won the competition

on my own merit.

Why won't you

even let me try?

Besides,

it's a chronic disease.

It won't suddenly worsen, right?

I'm only 25.

I'll just be more careful in the future.

Just relax.

Let me do what I want.

Okay?

It's all my fault.

I dragged your mom into this back then

and now you.

Why do you keep bringing her up?

The reason I kept delaying the check-up

was because I was afraid you'd say this.

This retinitis pigmentosa

is a rare disease.

Having surgery will only postpone

the coming of the last stage.

There is no cure for it.

Moreover,

this is a hereditary disease.

And your eyes.

You were acting quite naturally when you were busy

with your work in the market.

Your eyes looked firm when you were handling sashimi.

I used to feel that my life

was a tunnel.

Very dark, very long,

and very narrow.

It stayed that way until one chance came to me.

I stood on a place called "runway".

So I was wondering,

can my life

be like a runway?

It doesn't have to be long,

but there has to be light,

audience,

applause,

and hope.

Preparation for new recruits' training is already underway.

This year's momentum surpasses that of previous years,

so every department is taking it seriously.

Still can't reach him?

This is the first time this has happened.

I'll have someone to check again later.

No need.

What's going on?

You can't force it.

Did you cause trouble again?

What do you mean "again"?

Did you hear what they said?

Them?

They said something?

I don't know.

That guy's missing?

He's not answering his phone.

Did something happen?

Nothing should stop him

from reporting in.

I shouldn't have trusted him in the first place.

What a waste of my emotions.

Your dream of getting rich is ruined?

If he really quits,

you'll lose big time.

Why do you

always rub salt into other people's wounds?

Then I...

Drop me off at the next intersection.

What?

We're not home yet.

I'm going to get a skin treatment.

I should at least drop you off.

Give me the address.

Don't you want to get off work early?

It's a rare opportunity.

Don't regret it.

[Outpatient]

What did the surgeon say?

Just a slight rib fracture.

No big deal.

I can be discharged anytime.

Sorry.

I didn't know

you were hiding the check-up from your dad.

He happened to come to the hospital that day.

It's fine.

He would've found out eventually.

By the way,

in the future,

be careful at night

or going to dark places.

But don't be too nervous.

Although the peripheral retina

has atrophied,

the posterior pole is still okay.

So it doesn't affect work?

Depends on what work you do,

whether it's day or night,

whether it strains your eyes.

Your dad doesn't have it easy either.

At his age,

he can barely take care of himself.

Yet he still has to worry about you.

I think

you should take a break from everything.

Go home and rest.

Let him digest the news too.

Once you're healed

and he has accepted it,

we'll go from there,

okay?

Sure.

Blood pressure, lipid levels,

and thyroid levels are all normal.

But,

try not to wear heels so much in the future.

You saw it yourself.

The fluid we drained

was almost over 100 ml.

Got it.

Can you not wear the white coat?

When you were brought to the hospital three years ago,

what did you tell me?

Do you still remember?

Alright, I'll listen to you.

[Absence will disqualify you.] Where are you?

[Are you really going to give up?] The whole world is looking for you.

Call me back.

Say something. Everyone is looking for you.

Fan.

What's going on?

I've sent you so many messages.

Call me back!

[Peter, Missed Call] My colleagues said they can't reach you.

[Xiaoru, Missed Call] Jia Fan!

Call me back!

Jia Fan!

I'm so done.

What are you thinking?

Jia Fan.

Call me back right now!

Where on earth are you?

Can't find you anywhere.

Ms. Dong is really angry.

Call me back.

I'm really angry too.

Listen up.

What are you thinking?

Listen,

you were the one who begged me for help.

I won't let you give up.

Hey!

For the first time ever,

someone hung up on me right in my face.

As expected from you!

How would I know you're here?

What about you?

Where did you injure this time?

It's not like you're unconscious.

Why didn't you reply to my messages?

Why didn't you answer my calls?

Do you know

that if you don't report in

or attend the new recruits' training,

you'll really be disqualified?

I do!

I thought it was something amazing.

But even a rookie like me

can easily make it in.

It's not that impressive after all.

How boring.

To be honest,

I'm just frustrated.

All of you said I couldn't do it.

Especially you.

Always finding ways to pick on me.

I just wanted

to prove to those who looked down on me

that I could.

Now that I've proven it,

there's no need to serve you any longer.

Be honest!

I'm not stupid

or blind!

I'm blind!

I've just listened to too many of your motivational speeches.

I thought that if I worked hard, I could be like you.

But in the end,

I'm nothing.

Reality is what it is.

You're right.

Modeling is a fleeting and turbulent career.

To stand out,

you have to be able to endure.

I can't endure any longer.

Forget it.

Daydreams are still dreams.

Time to wake up.

We won't see each other again.

Don't worry.

Hey!

Hey!

The opportunity is right there.

You're the one giving it up.

If you don't show up at 10 AM on the 6th,

it'll prove you're not only incompetent,

but also a coward.

I hope you never regret it.

But I'll always look down on you.

What are you doing?

Can't you watch where you're going?

Why are you wandering around?

If you're sick, go to the hospital.

Seriously, what's wrong with you?

Unbelievable.

[Han Yijing, Brand Ambassador for EAU]

Daydreams are still dreams.

Time to wake up.

I'm just frustrated.

I thought that if I worked hard, I could be like you.

Reality is what it is.

No matter how much I struggle, it's useless.

Without even this much determination,

how can you be like us?

All you do is talk.

When critical moments come, you always drop the ball!

You deserve to be looked down on!

Yijing.

What are you doing?

I'm practicing my runway walk.

Why haven't you left yet?

I'm about to leave.

I was just organizing teaching material.

You should go home.

I'm going to get some rest.

Good night.

You deserve to be looked down on?

What the heck?

What personal matters could he have?

He's single

and I'm his only friend.

Besides,

handling personal matters doesn't stop one from contacting people.

Uncle Jia,

did you two have a fight?

Did he run away from home?

Xiaoru.

Don't worry.

How can I not worry?

New recruits' training is in two days.

If he doesn't show up by then,

all our efforts these past two months would be wasted.

He's not a kid anymore.

How can he be so irresponsible?

Uncle Jia.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean it that way.

He's usually not

that kind of person.

Stop right there.

What do you mean by this?

I've been waiting here for so long

and you didn't even say hello.

Are you blind or what?

Let's talk tomorrow.

No.

You have to make things clear today.

I'm sorry.

I just wanted to have some fun.

Now that I've made it through,

I'm not interested anymore.

My modeling journey ends here.

Also,

hurry up and hire someone for the shop.

I'll quit after the handover.

I've thought about it.

I prefer just lazing around

at home.

Jia Fan.

Come out.

Explain yourself.

Do you hear me?

You said you'd join, so you joined?

You said you'd quit, so you quit?

What is this?

Are you messing with me?

Fan.

Did something happen?

Come out and explain.

We can solve it together.

Do you hear me?

Back then, you said

you didn't want to deal with fish your whole life.

You wanted to give it a try.

You also said you wouldn't let me down.

We worked so hard,

gave it our all,

and finally made it.

We put in so much effort.

You're actually going

to give up now?

I was counting on you to join ACME

so I could become a stylist.

Stupid Jia Fan.

Forget it.

Do whatever you want.

I only have myself to blame.

I shouldn't have listened to you

or gotten involved.

Listen.

Whether you work at the shop or not is up to you.

But if you don't go to the new recruits' training,

we're so done!

From now on,

we'll go our separate ways

and never see each other again!

Uncle Jia.

I'm leaving.

Xiaoru.

Don't be mad at him.

Uncle, he just said that in the heat of the moment, right?

Uncle.

Actually, he chose modeling over being a chef

not just for himself,

but for you as well.

Talk to him.

He'll listen to you.

Fan.

I left some seafood congee in the pot for you.

Come out and have some.

Later.

You go to sleep first.
