=Episode 22=

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Could you join me for one more stop?

Okay.

(Forget Me)

Recall this place?

Let's go inside.

Do you remember this flower?

What is it?

Welcome.

Are you two here to buy flowers or plant some?

Miss, do you remember us?

No, have we met before?

Then...

Whose plant is this?

It was probably left by a previous customer.

It seems no one ever came to claim it.

I see.

I'd like to plant forget-me-nots.

Okay.

I'll go prepare.

Do you know the symbolism of sunflowers?

Silent love.

I once planted a sunflower with someone very important to me.

Too bad...

I didn't get his meaning back then.

With so many flowers,

why choose sunflowers?

But I think sunflower symbolism is more interesting.

What is it?

I should've planted forget-me-nots from the start.

Their symbolism is better.

All planted. Let's go.

(Forget Me)

Sir.

Two more bottles.

Coming.

Honey, you look great today.

Of course.

Stop looking at me. This is your fault.

If it weren't for you,

would Gao Haiming have turned into a complete idiot?

Would he have forgotten everything?

I took him to so many places.

We had so many wonderful memories.

Now he doesn't remember any of it.

This is all because of you.

Maybe it's best.

At least this way,

the fondness definitely won't increase anymore.

Maybe I can stay in this world forever,

silently watching over him.

This is not fair.

I've already pursued him once.

Now I have to pursue him again.

Gao Haiming,

you're incredibly hard to win over. Don't you know that?

Hallucination.

Go away.

I don't want to see you right now.

Miss, here's your beer.

Stop drinking.

Not a hallucination?

Didn't I tell you to leave?

I don't want to see you right now.

You're telling me what to do?

What gives you the right?

Who are you to tell me what to do?

Yes, you're my boss.

But I'm off work now.

You can't tell me what to do.

A friend?

You don't remember anything as a friend.

So now you're just a kind stranger meddling in my business.

It's not your business.

Go away.

Either you leave

or stay and drink with me.

If you won't drink, then leave now.

Why are you crying?

I like crying.

I just enjoy crying.

Got a problem with that?

What did you mean earlier when you said I forgot you?

Let me sober up first.

I'll take you somewhere.

Why did you bring me here?

How did you know?

What are you seeking?

I'm looking for a painted Wild Weasel aircraft.

What paint scheme?

Multicolored.

With candy designs on it.

You mean this one?

That's it.

Why was it in there?

I don't remember.

I just thought it was special.

So I kept it safe.

Do you recall how it came to be?

(Care to try?)

To paint it?

Forget it.

I'm afraid I might damage it.

Even if it breaks,

it'd still be unique.

I don't.

Then, could you give me this model?

Yes.

But could you tell me

why you know about its existence?

Is it related to you?

I'm not sure how to explain it.

But it really is very important to me.

(Do you know the symbolism of sunflowers?)

Silent love.

I once planted a sunflower with someone very important to me.

(Too bad. I didn't get his meaning back then.)

Luo, can I ask you something?

Do you remember when Lin Huan'er joined the company?

Lin Huan'er? I hired her.

Before New Year's Day.

I can't remember the exact date.

I'll go check.

Yeah, she seems to have appeared out of nowhere

and seems to have always been here.

Mr. Gao,

I don't know if I should say this.

Then don't say it.

Are you planning to replace me with her?

Luo, why are you still in the company?

Mr. Gao, that won't do.

My loyalty to the company is absolute.

I work diligently.

You can't just kick the ladder away.

Shouldn't we celebrate Mr. Gao's birthday grandly?

Agreed.

How about booking 30 tables at Nebula Hotel?

- I agree. - Good idea.

Why are you all so excited about the boss' birthday?

For perks for yourselves?

Mr. Gao never celebrates his birthday.

He always tries to avoid such occasions.

This year he agreed so readily.

It's his first time celebrating.

What if we mess it up?

Wait.

Go back to work.

I didn't hear it. I was just here to get water.

No one said you did.

Why confess out of the blue?

Well? Any ideas?

We shouldn't do it in a hotel.

And 30 tables are way too grand.

Mr. Gao doesn't like grand occasions.

Especially formal, corporate ones.

Doing it in the office is fine.

You didn't hear us?

By the way,

I've wanted to ask you.

Why do you know Mr. Gao's preferences so well?

Because

I'm a rather observant person.

Believe me, if you let me handle this,

I can make Mr. Gao happy.

I believe you.

I really do.

If you don't, just let me do it.

If he's not happy, I'll take the blame. Okay?

Blame isn't the issue.

The key is pleasing Mr. Gao.

You're fully in charge.

Okay.

(Happy Birthday!)

Lin Huan'er.

Everything okay?

- Haiming. - Mr. Gao.

Why are you here?

I came to give you a birthday gift.

Your father agreed?

He's agreed.

Letao is growing so rapidly now.

Partnering with Letao

is a good thing for Fuchuang too.

We just don't know if you're willing to give us this chance.

Why wouldn't I?

- So perfect. - So perfect.

Yeah.

Looks like we'll be attending Mr. Gao and Miss Xie's wedding soon.

Mr. Gao,

let's cut the cake.

Please help distribute it.

Everyone, thank you for celebrating my birthday.

After the cake,

take the day off.

Happy birthday, Mr. Gao!

Let's talk in my office.

♪Now I see what passed between us♪

♪Walking through the crowd to meet you♪

♪Going through surging tides of people♪

♪Until the world's end♪

♪If I could♪

♪Keep loving you♪

(Happy birthday. - Huan'er)

♪Hearing two hearts♪

♪Beating together♪

♪If I could♪

♪Stay resting in your arms♪

♪I'd trade the rest of my life for it♪

You sure Lin Huan'er is here?

Yes, boss.

What's the rush to find her?

Your birthday party is still on.

Hello?

Lin Huan'er, where are you?

Mr. Gao, I came out to clear my head.

I wanted to thank you for the party you threw me.

I love it.

I'm glad you like it.

Happy birthday.

Where are you?

At the beach?

Yes, the same place we visited before.

Forget it.

You wouldn't remember.

Lin Huan'er?

Hello? Lin Huan'er?

Lin Huan'er?

Someone's in the water!

Someone's in the water!

Help!

Someone's drowning! Help!

Someone's in the water!

Can anyone swim?

Someone's in the water! Help!

Who? Who's fallen in?

A young girl.

Quite pretty.

Not sure if she fell in drunk.

No.

She was just on the phone.

Stop talking!

Go help her!

Boss!

I can't swim.

Can you swim?

Boss!

What? What happened?

A woman fell in.

They just got her out.

Then a man jumped in too.

Lin Huan'er.

Mr. Gao jumped in.

He can't swim.

Are you feeling unwell?

Do you need a hospital?

Huan'er,

I really forgot you?

For how long?

It's okay. None of that matters now.

I'm just glad you remember me now.

I'm sorry.

I know these past days must've been hard for you.

I won't leave you again.

I'll make breakfast.

System notification:

Male Lead's fondness toward you has reached 100%.

You're nearing quest completion.

Proceed to complete the final goal

and get his proposal.

May you return to your original world soon.

Why are you gawking?

Come here.

Sit.

You made all this?

If we could wake up together and have breakfast

like this every day,

it would be great.

Okay.

If you like it,

I'll cook for you every day.

This happiness feels so surreal to me now.

Sometimes I think

so many things in this world

seem predestined.

What?

Like this time.

I still can't recall why I lost my memory,

and coincidentally,

all of it was about you.

And people around us seemed to have forgotten our relationship too.

As if someone wiped it all away.

It's okay.

So what if it was predestined?

Every story needs its author.

In that case,

let's write ours ourselves.

Okay?

Try my cooking. Here.

Soft-boiled egg.

It's crooked.

There.

Come in with me.

I need to talk.

What's going on?

Am I seeing this right?

I knew it.

I wondered why Lin Huan'er seemed so sure

about Mr. Gao's preferences for his birthday.

Turns out they've been together all along.

They're so open about it,

publicly dating in the office.

Who?

Who dares to have an office romance?

Speak.

Slacking off all day long.

To publish the patent?

Are you sure about this?

Yes.

What do you think?

It can indeed drive the industry forward

and improve the overall quality of domestic brands.

But this is the result of your research and effort after all.

Are you ready to let it go?

You doubt my judgment?

Of course I don't.

- I will firmly stand by... - Boss.

I notice an increase in office romances recently.

If this goes on, the company...

Will get better and better.

Alright.

I won't disturb your work.

I'll head back.

Wait for you tonight.

Luo,

why are you still in the company?

Boss, I've finished all the patent work.

Let me stay longer.

Make it a big deal.

Okay.

Wait, boss.

When did you two get together?

You didn't know?

I didn't know.

Should I have known?

Do you remember when she was at Yunsheng?

Yunsheng?

When was she at Yunsheng?

I poached her from Yunsheng at a high price.

I was the one who brought her in.

Last month, she was transferred due to marketing staff shortage.

She was working downstairs before.

She moved here after New Year's Eve.

Then after your birthday,

you two...

Boss, you're this.

You are truly a disgusting and lousy system.

They are all living people.

How can you control everyone's fate?

Even if you think they are fictional characters,

you can't be this inhumane.

It's so real.

Of course.

Do you think I'm fake?

Of course, you're not fake.

(You are a real person who exists in this world.)

(Breaking: Letao Group Freely Releases Patents Industry-Wide)

Independent R&D has always been my dream.

And I believe Letao can definitely achieve it.

I aim to elevate domestic product standards

and make affordable, high-quality products.

Happy New Year. Your car keys.

Happy New Year.

Since your parents haven't returned,

how about spending the New Year at my place?

I have work that day.

No break during the New Year?

It can't be helped.

Okay.

(Haiming, well done.)

(I really should have trusted your judgment earlier.)

(Letao's future is in your hands.)

(Thanks, Dad.)

Chairman Gao?

Yes.

It's the first time in so many years he's acknowledged me.

Congratulations.

The ambitions and aspirations you spoke of back then

are coming true step by step now.

Huan'er,

people are always greedy.

Now I have a new wish.

What is it?

Let's go. I'll take you home.

No need.

I'll go back by myself.

Didn't you schedule to meet someone?

I won't add to your busy schedule.

I'll take you home.

Really, no need.

I can go back by myself.

You go ahead.

Happy New Year.

Happy New Year.

Text me when you get home.

Bye.

Even the carrier sent me a message.

Why didn't he send a message during the New Year?

Isn't this too cold?

Put your phone down.

Help me hang this.

I can't do it.

I'm busy.

Please.

Come on.

You're grown up now, okay?

Give it here.

Huan'er, something's off with you.

Who are you texting?

Are you dating someone again?

You're such an expert.

I am always an expert.

Girls, come look at this.

See what I brought back.

It smells terrible.

That's not true.

It smells terrible.

But it tastes delicious.

It tastes terrible too.

I'll hang it up.

Our family is doomed.

Yeah, it's too smelly.

Who is it?

Happy New Year.

Gao Haiming?

Why are you here?

Take a guess.

Didn't you have other plans?

Le'er.

My boyfriend.

Here we go.

Huan'er, not bad.

You're pleased?

How do you know?

Girls, girls, come quick.

Hello, sir.

I'm Gao Haiming,

Huan'er's boyfriend.
