[Episode 11]

I'll take 200 yuan in tokens, please.

- Thanks. - Wow, Miss Nie, you're going all in.

That is a serious stack of tokens.

Totally a high roller.

Actually, this is my first time ever being in an arcade.

Same here.

You're such a gamer, but this is your first time?

Well, online gaming and arcades are two totally different worlds.

Should we check out how others play first?

We need to learn how to play games?

There's a machine open over there.

- Let's snag it. - What?

Wait, we're starting already? Give me a second to get the hang of it.

[Go!]

Speed up.

- Go on. - Speed up.

Watch out.

- Turn right. - Turn right.

- Keep it steady. - He bumped me.

Here comes the curve.

Careful.

♫ Lost in how you shine ♫

Watch the wall.

My goodness.

♫ Leave me be ♫

♫ Don't leave it up to me ♫

♫ Oh it ain't hard to see ♫

♫ That you're everything I need ♫

♫ Baby, I don't wanna forget ♫

Hop off. My turn.

I thought you brought me here for ME to have fun.

Fine, go ahead.

♫ I just wanna give my time ♫

Come on, crash into a wall or the railing,

so I can take over. I'm just getting into the groove.

♫ You chasing rainbows ♫

♫ Oh you girl, you have it all ♫

[Go!]

♫ And smelling like violets ♫

♫ You chasing things ♫

♫ But I want your silhouette ♫

♫ Desire ♫

♫ Desire ♫

♫ Desire ♫

♫ Desire ♫

Left.

♫ Okay just listen to me ♫

Left. Left!

Pass him.

Right.

Right. Left.

Left. Right. Keep turning.

Left.

♫ And you're lovely baby ♫

♫ I want you to know ♫

Why did you suddenly stop deceiving me?

When did I ever deceive you?

See? That's what happens

[Finished, Rank 15th] when you don't listen to me.

Move. My turn.

♫ Don't blame me if I'm trying ♫

♫ Don't blame me if I'm trying ♫

♫ Baby, I don't wanna forget ♫

Can you believe they're closing up already?

Next stop, Miss Nie.

Let's hurry, or we won't make it to any movie.

What do you feel like watching?

Something high-energy.

I'm starting to feel sleepy.

I don't want to nod off.

How about The Shadow Doctor?

Sure.

Popcorn?

Yes.

Coke?

- Yep. - See how sweet her boyfriend is?

Honey, didn't you say you wanted to lose weight?

- Oh, so now you're calling me fat? - No, I'm just saying...

- What? - I just...

So, you want them or not?

Honestly, she claims she's on a diet every day,

but that doesn't mean you stop asking.

It's called "customer satisfaction" and basic survival instinct.

I knew you don't even love me that much.

That's not true, honey. How could I not?

Dude, you're breaking the bro-code.

Let's go.

That was a low blow, Mr. Lin.

How so?

That's a little test from a single man.

Theaters are crowded public spaces.

Smoking and open flames are strictly prohibited.

Flammable or explosive materials are strictly forbidden.

- Please take note of your floor... - Thanks.

And check the evacuation map.

Identify your nearest emergency exits and evacuation routes.

Locate the nearest fire safety equipment.

In case of a fire, stay calm.

The theater owes you one for boosting their business.

- Thank you. - Cover your nose and mouth.

Stay low to the ground.

Follow the walls, evacuate quickly and in an orderly manner.

Do not stop to grab your personal belongings.

Never use the elevators.

- Be fire smart. - Be fire smart.

- Let's stay safe together. - Let's stay safe together.

♫ I was walking on a cloudy road ♫

♫ No direction, no place to go ♫

♫ Then you appeared and lit my way ♫

♫ You turn my night into golden day ♫

♫ Two-way love, it's a fire so bright ♫

♫ You are the sun in my life, my light ♫

♫ We shine together, we rise, we glow ♫

♫ Two hearts beating, the world will know ♫

Don't let the simple controls fool you.

It's actually way harder than the last game.

It's a real brain burner.

Come on, just do it. I really can't get past it.

Drive safe on your way back.

♫ Your laugh is music, my heart's new tune ♫

♫ Under your spell, I'm over the moon ♫

♫ Your touch ignites a spark so real ♫

♫ Two-way love, it's the magic I feel ♫

♫ Two-way love, it's a fire so bright ♫

♫ You are the sun in my life, my light ♫

♫ We shine together, we rise, we glow ♫

♫ Two hearts beating, the world will know ♫

♫ The world spins fast but we stay still ♫

♫ In your arms, time bends to my will ♫

♫ Your love's a mirror, I see me true ♫

♫ Two-way love, I'm complete with you ♫

♫ Two hearts beating, the world will know ♫

I nodded off.

Let's go.

Was I asleep for long?

50 minutes.

Why were you even timing it?

So, how'd it end?

Did the heroine get rescued?

Who took her?

The hero's father.

No way. Why?

He was running illegal drug trials, and she stumbled upon it.

Then...

Wow, your boyfriend's a pro at multitasking.

He nailed every detail.

She said you were multitasking.

You didn't doze off either, did you?

It's almost 1 AM.

Let's skip the city view tonight and just get some rest.

We've got a wedding to catch tomorrow.

Fine.

If you're beat, just head back.

So Sheng Yi was just talking big.

He said you could pull an all-nighter in surgery and still be raring to go.

Follow me.

Thanks.

No problem.

Actions speak louder than words.

Lin Yu Sen, how old are you?

Nie Xi Guang, you clearly don't know enough about your boss.

Do you work for me, or am I reporting to you actually?

You flip between roles way too easily.

I like this position.

I get to boss you around while I'm still on your payroll.

That's more like slavery.

Come on, spill. How old are you?

28.

28.

Twenty...

That's impossible.

You have a PhD, right?

You finished a doctorate and practiced medicine.

The math just doesn't add up.

I mean, you look young, obviously.

Well, thank you.

I started school early.

So I got my degree a bit ahead of schedule.

Then why did Sheng Yi call you the legendary machine of your med school?

Nie Xi Guang,

do you seriously think it's okay to ask me that right to my face?

Maybe you should ask Sheng Yi yourself,

now that you've exchanged numbers.

Just how much did he trash-talk me?

It's like he spilled all my dirty laundry to you.

Relax.

He didn't mention your dating history or any of that gossip.

What dating history?

Med school was a grind, and so was being a surgeon.

I didn't exactly have a window for dating.

What about your admirers?

With your looks and pedigree,

there must have been a line out the door.

Maybe I just have impossibly high standards.

Since when did you get so invested in my personal life?

♫ The rain stopped ♫

I'm just killing time, okay?

Wait a minute.

Why are you drinking?

Weren't you supposed to drive back later?

I'm not. I don't live far from here. It's only about a 20-minute walk.

Okay.

Do you think there'll be snow all over the roads tomorrow?

I wonder if I'll even be able to get a cab.

I'll pick you up.

Your classmates invited me to the wedding, too.

What, you don't want me to go?

♫ Stay right here ♫

♫ Cause' you and I were meant to be ♫

Why don't I?

I'll handle the gift. You just enjoy the feast.

But you'd better look even sharper.

Even sharper?

Aren't you worried they might get the wrong idea about us?

So what if they do?

With a date as stunning as me, you're actually coming out ahead.

You've really lost yourself in the fun today.

Get some rest, unless you want dark circles tomorrow

and fail to look your absolute best.

There's a decent hotel right in this building.

Super convenient.

Here's fine.

I'll take care of the check-in.

- You don't need me to walk you in? - I'm good, Mr. Lin.

See you tomorrow.

Text me when you're settled in.

Good evening, ma'am. How can I help you today?

Hi, I'd like to check in, please.

May I see your ID, please?

Hey, Lin Yu Sen.

Where are you? Don't leave yet.

Hi. I forgot my ID card.

But I have this temporary ID from the police station nearby.

- Alright. I'll get that sorted for you. - Great, thank you.

You're dying to laugh, aren't you?

Is it that obvious?

I knew it.

I didn't expect the day to end with a plot twist.

But hey, now we're even "closer"

considering we've visited the police station together.

Keep it down, would you?

Sorry for the wait, ma'am. Here are your key card and breakfast vouchers.

Breakfast tomorrow is served until 10:30 AM.

It's in the Chinese restaurant on this floor.

Okay. Thanks.

Remember to deadbolt the door once you're inside

and don't open it for anyone.

If anything seems off, call me immediately.

Don't be so paranoid.

How can I not be?

We literally just came back from the police station.

So, for the sake of my reputation and my innocence,

stay safe in there, okay?

Okay.

You're not gonna rub it in for a whole year, are you?

I doubt it.

Given your "talent" for drama,

you'll probably have a new story to top this one by tomorrow.

Your clothes.

Oh, right. I almost forgot.

Thanks.

Alright then, head on up.

Sleep tight.

Tomorrow, I'll make sure to look even sharper.

And don't you forget to look stunning.

I... I'll try my best.

I'm off.

See you tomorrow.

[Mr. Lin] Are you home?

Yeah.

The view from my place should be the same as yours.

[Xi Guang]

Pretty much.

Why are you still up and drinking?

Didn't have enough earlier?

I'm thinking about the annual plan.

You're so dedicated.

As your boss and subordinate, I feel ashamed.

I'll do the grinding, while you just take the win, Miss Nie.

I'm going to sleep now.

Goodnight, Mr. Lin.

Goodnight...

Miss Nie.

He even obsesses over the symmetry of his texts.

Total OCD.

[To Zhuang Xu: I'm sorry. I honestly didn't realize]

[you and Rong had something going on.]

[I'm sorry. I honestly didn't realize you and Rong had something going on.]

[Otherwise I wouldn't have confessed to you.]

[I hope I didn't cause you any trouble.]

Si Liang's been warming up to me.

When I sent her home, I just asked her point-blank.

She finally said yes.

Congrats.

You got your wish.

After all this time,

she finally agreed to be with me.

But I don't feel the rush I expected.

I'm not trying to play the martyr.

I know...

she only chose me because she couldn't find anyone with better qualities

who cares for her more than I do.

But truth be told,

how much feelings do I even have left in the tank?

For the first few months, I was genuinely obsessed.

I can't let go now...

not just because I'm not ready to give up,

but because I haven't found anyone better than her yet.

What about you?

What did Ye Rong say when she caught up with you today?

Nothing much.

We just grabbed separate cabs.

Is this how it goes?

From dating all the way to marriage.

Is true love only for total catches like you?

Even so, I'm not giving up.

I'll keep liking you, until the day you finally return the feeling.

♫ The days since you're gone ♫

Give me time. I'll win you over.

♫ I still haven't learned to move on ♫

♫ Each quiet night falls around me ♫

♫ Even with the lights on, they glow dim and pale ♫

♫ All I can do is call out loud ♫

♫ To hide the dull ache inside ♫

♫ I grip regret so tight ♫

♫ And cast it into the shining firework sky ♫

♫ Even if love fades too fast ♫

♫ I'll bless you with the grace I have ♫

♫ You're gone for good ♫

Are you up? [Mr. Lin]

I'm already at the hotel.

You're up?

I'm all freshened up. Heading down to meet you now.

Alright. I'm in the lobby.

♫ My heartbeat becomes impossible to ignore ♫

♫ You said you loved summer ♫

♫ Yet I'm just lost in the way you smile ♫

♫ You've been on my mind all day ♫

What are you doing here so early?

It's way too early for the wedding.

The hotel offered two breakfast vouchers, right?

Can't let them go to waste, Miss Nie.

♫ You've been on my mind all day ♫

♫ Just a little closer to you ♫

I'm here to keep you company for breakfast.

♫ I whisper your name again and again ♫

How many plates has it been?

This is the first plate of fruit.

Big breakfast, huh?

Think you'll have any room left for the wedding lunch?

Gotta fuel up to get through the day.

Don't underestimate my capacity for food.

By the way, how do weddings usually work in Shanghai?

Yesterday's was at night, but this one's at noon?

Nights are more the norm here.

They must be following their local customs, then.

Wuxi does weddings at noon too.

Noon's pretty nice, too.

Are you gonna finish that bread?

Want me to take care of it for you?

What's with that look?

It's not like you're eating it, and we can't have it go to waste, Mr. Lin.

Nothing.

I was running the numbers on keeping...

The cost... might need an upgrade.

Can you just stop being such a workaholic?

It's way too early for a lecture on costs. My head is spinning.

It's kind of dry.

Not the best.

Do you prefer a Western breakfast?

It's just easier.

But I'm not picky.

I can adapt.

Then let's mix it up.

A bit more variety is probably healthier anyway.

Got it.

Finish your soy milk, and let's get going. That's plenty for now.

Eating too much isn't good for you.

Okay.

New car?

I don't think I've seen this one before.

It's a gift from my grandfather. It's just been sitting in the garage.

But since your standards are so high, and I can't quite meet them,

I had to try a different approach.

What standards of mine?

You don't remember?

"To look sharper."

You can't look any sharper, so...

Mr. Lin, you're such a narcissist.

Anyway, glad I could entertain you.

Get in.

Actually, you...

What?

You do look sharper.

Then it was worth it, after trying on so many ties.

Hop in, Miss Nie.

It's my pleasure to be your chauffeur.

Thank you.

[We're Married]

You go on ahead. I'll find a spot.

I'll go in with you.

That's okay. Just go in first.

Alright then.

Gotta go.

Xi Gua!

Boss.

What's this supposed to mean?

You trying to outshine me on my wedding day?

And what was your boyfriend driving? It looked insane.

Boss, it's your wedding. Chill out.

It's your big day. I had to pull out all the stops.

- Thanks. - Thanks.

I've got this.

Blame Xiang Qun for this.

He said back around graduation,

when they were drinking in the dorm,

Zhuang Xu got wasted and said he had no idea

how many years he'd have to grind just to afford a wedding.

He was sure he'd be the last to get married.

So he promised he'd be there as the groomsman.

As for my side of things,

Rong's been so hands-on this time.

Xi Gua.

Go easy on her.

Congrats.

Thanks.

Wait, you brought a gift too?

I said you should just enjoy the feast. We basically sent them double.

No.

Shouldn't the gift come from me?

But that is way too generous.

Where's my knife?

I need something to cut through all this mushy lovey-dovey stuff.

His gift has nothing to do with me.

This one is from me.

Boss, be happy, okay?

Xi Gua.

Hold on tight to your happiness.

Don't be silly.

I will.

Xi Gua!

- Xi Guang, hurry up. - Hello.

You sit next to her.

I feel like she's about to put me under interrogation.

I can grill your boyfriend too, you know?

Well, let's see what you've got.

Just make something up.

But don't go overboard.

I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up.

What's the angle here?

Like... Was it you chasing me, or the other way around?

How long has it been? We should sync up on the basics.

Do we really need to get that specific?

What are you whispering about?

You guys see each other every day,

and you still have to murmur to each other in front of us?

We are not.

Food's here.

Sweet.

At least we won't have to watch this on an empty stomach.

Boss surely knows the drill.

Is no one sitting next to me?

The food is already being served.

These seats are for the bridesmaid and groomsman.

There's no room at the head table.

I doubt they'll even have time to grab a bite anyway.

So it's just the eight of us then.

More food for us.

Typical. Always about the food.

Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats.

The ceremony is about to begin.

Please join me in a warm round of applause to welcome the newlyweds.

College romance is simple yet timeless.

Our bride and groom both attended the prestigious Jiangning University.

They met through mutual friends and shared a beautiful journey together.

Now, six months after graduation,

the deep bond they share has led them to make a lifelong vow to each other,

and step into this next great chapter of their lives together.

Let's hear it for their unwavering love.

They must be overwhelmed with joy,

but there are four people who are even more moved, and that is, their parents.

And to our proud parents,

would you please stand and say hello to everyone?

Xi Guang.

Relax.

Where did you even find this giant hunk of fat?

I was so focused, I just grabbed whatever.

Gee, thanks. I'll help myself.

Rong.

Shouldn't you be with the bride?

Boss told me to take a break and get some food.

Her relatives are taking over for now.

You'd better dig in, or there'll be nothing left.

I thought you were on a diet.

Piling it high, are you?

Wedding calories don't count.

Your name sounded so familiar when I heard it yesterday.

And then you mentioned you're from Shengyuan.

It only just clicked that you're our chairman's grandson.

You work at Shengyuan?

I'm the assistant to Mr. Sheng in Marketing.

Xing Jie?

So you're working under him.

Xi Gua, is your boyfriend's family actually that powerful?

Too bad I never ran into you at HQ.

I'd only just joined the company when I heard you were assigned to a subsidiary.

So you ended up in Suzhou.

And in the same company as you, Xi Guang.

By the way, Xi Guang, why did you decide to work in Suzhou?

I mean, Suzhou is doing great,

but it still doesn't compare to Shanghai for opportunities.

Actually, I quite like Suzhou.

The office there is a joint venture between my family and Shengyuan.

It's just more laid-back.

Sure, Shanghai has plenty of opportunities,

but the ones you mention aren't really useful to me.

Oh right, my family knows the Shengs quite well.

Rong, since you're working at Shengyuan, if you run into any problems,

you can always come to me. Don't be shy about it.

The bond we shared in college is truly rare and valuable.

If there's any way I can help, I definitely will.

Come on, dig in. They're coming over to toast us.

Xiang Qun looks pretty sharp today.

Was I being too cocky?

What are you laughing at?

It's funny watching someone putting on a big show,

while the real heavy hitter next to me only throws out a soft nudge,

just enough to keep people in line.

The food here is pretty good.

Really worth the price. They even serve lobster.

Xi Guang, did you come over from Suzhou this morning?

No.

It got too late last night, so I didn't go back.

Wait, did I hear that right?

You didn't go back to Suzhou last night?

Don't tell me you stayed in Shanghai.

So where did you stay?

Mr. Lin must have a house in Shanghai.

My place is close to Xi Guang's hotel,

so I can swing by and pick her up.

I see.

Hey, you came over too?

Shouldn't you be with Boss, doing the rounds?

Well, their relatives can really hold their liquor.

Guess they don't need Zhuang Xu for that.

Besides, he doesn't seem like much of a drinker anyway.

He can drink way more now than back in college.

Finance sure makes you better at holding your liquor.

Oh right, he told me yesterday

that he actually switched from Huaya's Loans to Investment Banking.

Seriously? Even Huaya's regular departments are tough to get into,

let alone Investment Banking.

Zhuang Xu, that's incredible.

Yeah, you only graduated six months ago,

and you're moving up the ladder already?

- Just luck, I guess. - You really kept that under wraps.

A move that big, and you didn't tell us a thing?

Rong, how come you didn't tell me?

You guys really know how to play it cool.

"Luck" is such an understatement.

You've got the ability and the drive. Of course you'd make it.

In Investment Banking, your salary must've doubled already.

I heard the year-end bonus is well into six figures.

At this pace, in just a few years, a million‑plus salary wouldn't be surprising.

It's really nothing.

So you and Xi Gua are a bit of a workplace thing.

Since you're her boss,

you must have a background much like the rest of us.

An MBA, I assume?

Actually, no.

I was a med student.

What? That's quite a jump.

So why aren't you practicing?

Cut it out. You're interrogating him.

Xi Gua, you're so protective.

Geez, can't I even ask a question?

I never knew you were the jealous type.

I just don't get it.

Why go to med school if you're not going to practice?

What's so strange about that?

Haven't you seen a versatile talent?

She's just not used to this much shameless bragging.

It's okay.

This fish soup is really good. Have you tried it?

Not yet.

Thanks.

Go on, have a taste.

Thanks everyone for being here.

- Here you are. - Boss.

As we're friends, I'm not doing the rounds, okay?

Oh, knock it off. We know you're a lightweight.

- Let's all raise our glasses. - Congrats.

- Alright. - Congrats.

- Congrats. - Congrats.
