I think I've seen that scar before somewhere.

I knew it.

Every single member of the medical team has that same scar.

Yaoji.

I sent you a photo.

Look into anything

you can find about it.

Set up a meeting

with Yaoji tonight.

Tonight?

We already have plans tonight.

Ms. Mu wants you to sort this out by tonight.

This is for the meeting the day after tomorrow.

Can I do it tomorrow instead?

But Bai and Vice Director Jiang...

Do your own job

and stop worrying about others.

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

♪Who will hide fate♪

♪Within the dust of the past♪

♪Understanding love and hate♪

♪Happy birthday to you♪

- Ya! - Happy birthday!

Happy birthday, Ya!

You guys remembered.

Of course.

♪Knowing the end yet still I follow♪

♪Burning all away, even if alone♪

What do you want to eat?

Barbecue.

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

I wish every birthday from now on

I can have barbecue with Jiang Zhen

and Bai.

Is that asking too much?

As long as you don't mind him,

we can celebrate

with you every year.

You're the one they can't stand.

Don't worry. I'll be there.

♪And sorrow turns to song♪

What's your second wish?

I wish all of us can make

our dreams come true.

And your third wish?

You can't say the third one out loud,

or else it won't come true.

That's all right.

Whatever it is,

I'll make it happen.

Thanks, guys.

My wish will come true.

Next year, I wish the three of us

can be in the same spot

eating barbecue again.

We'll see.

Bai, Jiang,

thank you for celebrating my birthday with me today.

Here, a toast to both of you.

Cheers!

Cheers!

- Happy birthday! - Happy birthday!

My mother never celebrated my birthday.

When I was little,

I once picked up

a candle someone had thrown away

and burned a hole in my clothes.

She beat me for it.

Later, she passed away.

My father brought me back to the Nong family,

but no one ever remembered my birthday.

I always

spent it alone,

especially overseas.

I never thought

you two would celebrate with me today.

Don't worry.

You will

never spend a birthday alone again.

You'll have two friends with you.

I will be like an older brother

to you.

That's right.

We have plenty of years ahead.

This year,

next year, every year,

we will spend it together.

All right.

Cheers!

Together it is.

Cheers!

What's wrong?

I was thinking about Nong Cangnan.

Nong Cangnan?

I noticed

he's been in contact with some shady people.

He disappeared for several days recently.

When he came back,

there was a new scar on the back of his neck.

He isn't nice to me,

but he is still my half-brother.

I'm a little worried about him.

This is so good. Let's add two more orders of bacon.

This will do.

Sir. Make it less greasy and less spicy.

Sir,

based on the clue Ya gave,

I found out all the medical staff

had been part of a medical experiment.

It was being run

in secret by certain people.

What kind of experiment?

I don't know,

but someone does.

Who?

The city's information broker,

"Prince."

Prince?

They say he is mysterious.

No one has seen him.

No one even knows if he is a man or a woman.

Just that he is ruthless

and rich.

Good news.

I heard Prince

is throwing a party at a bar in the next few days.

But it's members only.

We can't just walk in.

So we'll have to find another way.

How?

I have an idea.

You brought the stuff?

Yes.

But what for?

Well...

What?

Come here.

Bai Fan, what are you doing?

Relax.

Just making you cuter.

What?

Ya, get him.

What's going on?

Hey, if you get that on my face, you are dead!

Bai Fan,

you're always messing with me.

Isn't this nice?

You walk around with that sour look all day.

This will freshen you up.

I don't need it.

It's for your own good.

Stop talking. Go to sleep.

Why does it have to be me?

Because you're the pretty one.

It would be a waste not to dress you up.

We can't send Ya in, can we?

Why not you?

Want me to let her try instead?

I'm too masculine.

I'd blow our cover right away.

Are you saying I'm not masculine?

I've scoped out the place.

Too many people in the hallway, should be easy to handle.

The security in the private room shouldn't be as tight as the entrance,

so we'll use a business meeting as cover.

I'll handle the guards,

you get Prince

to give up the intel.

Watch for my signal.

I'm the one in charge.

I'm your instructor.

Former instructor.

What's your business here?

We...

We are...

Tell them.

You two are late.

You're here to perform for Prince, right?

Yes.

We're here to perform for Prince,

the esteemed elder.

Esteemed "elder"?

Are you talking about me?

- You never told me Prince was a woman. - I didn't know either.

What now?

Um... I meant

the one and only Prince,

beloved by all ages,

men and women alike.

Flattered,

but flattery isn't much of a talent.

What else can you do?

Roleplay.

I play a lone agent

sneaking into a castle

to rescue the princess from the villain,

and she's the femme fatale trying to stop me.

After a fierce battle,

we save you, the princess, and bring you back to our side.

Exciting

enough?

Interesting,

but I'm not a big fan of thrills.

Wait, Prince.

We... We can also tone it down.

Go on.

We can sing, dance, do stand-up,

you name it.

And you, unusual young lady,

what can you do?

She can...

She can...

She can smash a rock on her chest.

I like that.

We'll save that for the finale.

First, we'll sing and dance

for you.
