[My Boss]

[Episode 3]

Could it be that I fell asleep because of Cheng Yao?

Cheng Yao, wake up.

Wake up.

I…

Kneeling before me is of no use.

Good morning, Boss.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sleep here on purpose.

I wanted to cook you a meal yesterday

to say thank you.

But when I got to the door, I heard you snoring.

- Did you come into my room? - How could I?

How could I disturb you while you're sleeping?

I thought I would rest on the sofa

and wait for you.

But the room was too warm,

and the sound of the wind and rain outside was very soporific,

so I accidentally fell asleep.

The sound of wind and rain?

Haven't you heard

that 432 Hertz is the most harmonious frequency in the universe?

It's said that many people

feel extremely soothed when hearing this sound.

Many use it as background noise for sleep.

I've heard it's quite effective.

What kind of twisted logic is that?

What the heck is this?

It's made for you.

Leave my house, the sooner the better.

Boss.

You're also going to the company.

Can you give me a ride?

Do I look like a philanthropist?

I'll wash my face and get out immediately.

Could it be that I fell asleep because of Cheng Yao?

No way.

It must be the storm, the frequency, the science.

Anyway, it definitely isn't Cheng Yao.

[The Li Yan divorce case] Cheng Yao, here.

What is this?

Mr. Qian called me last night

and said to give you the case file.

You can officially work on the case with us.

Really?

The right direction yields results.

I will work hard to not hold you back.

Have you noticed anything?

Do you want my help?

I can enlighten you.

Why is Xu Jun behaving like this?

You're young.

As a family lawyer,

there's no shortage of things that could shatter your beliefs.

After all, Xu Jun is the founder of Tuantuan Online.

For a businessman, hiding assets during a divorce is quite normal.

That's not what I meant.

I'm talking about Bai Xingmeng.

Do you know Bai Xingmeng?

What? What 'meng'?

The heroine of 'Lingyao's Strategy'

It's a popular drama recently.

There were rumors about the two of them.

I know, I know, I know her.

She has a scandal?

But it's normal.

Quite normal.

I know many female celebrities who have scandals.

No.

It's when they had the rumors.

I think it was two years ago,

but the records show that Xu Jun got married three years ago

and divorced one year ago.

She was in a drama that was very popular at that time.

I remember it clearly, and it was just two years ago.

You remember the timing so clearly.

It seems Mr. Qian had a good eye.

No, it's because I really like Bai Xingmeng.

That shouldn't be the case. She must have been deceived.

Yes.

Fortunately, my only idol is Mr. Qian.

He has perfect self-discipline

and will never betray my trust.

Do you want to become his fan?

Once your mindset changes,

work will be smoother.

Overtime is a fan's perk.

Furthermore,

in order for you to fully experience my care,

I've decided

to formally invite you to join

our Glory and Wealth group.

What is Glory and Wealth?

Joining Mr. Qian's team

equals embarking on a journey

with glory and wealth.

As long as you work well with the boss,

you're guaranteed to make money.

No need to look for him. Mr. Qian is not here.

His love for Mr. Qian is heartfelt, from the inside out.

[Glory and Wealth] Welcome Miss Cheng to join our group.

Please, Miss Tan.

I'm still a newbie.

One should have dreams in life.

You've made it into Junheng already.

And you have the help of me.

Becoming a top lawyer is just a matter of time.

Why do I have a bad feeling?

Are the hard times approaching?

We all have been through it.

You'll get used to it sooner or later.

You've been with the company for four years. Have you gotten used to it?

Almost, almost there.

Bao Rui, there are many wording mistakes in your documents.

You still need to be more meticulous.

Come on.

Are you a Chinese teacher or something?

You should have been careful.

I'll kick you out.

[Bluetooth]

Hello.

Housekeeping service?

I would like to find a domestic helper to make me late-night snacks.

Auntie, could you make more noise while cooking?

You know, clatter the pots and pans and such.

Alright.

Can you be a little louder?

Young man, if you're sick, go get treated.

Making rackets in the middle of the night

is truly lacking manners.

I won't serve you anymore.

[Sleep Aid Tablet]

I close my eyes and fall asleep.

I've got a strong ability to adapt.

I can fall asleep instantly anywhere.

I wasn't dancing. I was doing an exercise routine.

It's too cold, and I want to warm up.

I've got a strong ability to adapt.

I can fall asleep instantly anywhere.

Wake up, wake up.

Why are you sleeping here?

Sorry about that, sir.

How may I help you?

I'm sorry.

I'll have one of these.

How about you try this one instead?

This flavor is really invigorating.

Okay.

Here.

Here we go again.

Could it be because of the sleeping pills?

I'm sorry, these past couple of days

have been hectic with work.

Alright, I'll contact you as soon as I have time.

The case has hit a bottleneck.

I simply can't find the time to look at houses.

Do I have to live at the office indefinitely?

Boss,

are you working overtime again?

What's wrong?

What are you doing?

You're real.

It's best not to spread viruses in the office.

Your words are a bit harsh.

But you have a good heart, right?

Thinking also consumes physical energy.

I can't shortchange myself.

Boss, I'm going to cook an instant hot pot. Do you want some?

No need, get out.

That sounds awful.

What a spectacle.

The hexagonal warrior Mr. Qian

who works nonstop 24/7 actually fell asleep in the office.

Even a sage has his weak points.

He must have been tired.

He stays up late and works overtime every day.

How do you know he works overtime and stays up every night?

I meant yesterday.

I was working overtime yesterday too.

I need to take a picture.

This is a phenomenal scene.

It's a once-in-a-century occurrence.

What are you looking at?

Nothing much.

Let me have a look too.

I have an announcement.

We have three new colleagues now,

so I'm thinking of holding a welcome party this evening.

Let's leave together after work.

Thank you, Mr. Wu.

Invite your friends as well.

Let's liven things up together.

Okay.

Cheng Yao.

Don't you have a sister?

Invite her to join us.

Sure.

Okay.

Boss, I'm going to cook an instant hot pot. Do you want some?

Could it really be Cheng Yao who made me fall asleep?

Qian.

Don't take it to heart.

Sometimes, making a fool of oneself in front of colleagues

can bring you closer.

I don't need to be close with colleagues.

What an ungrateful guy.

Who saved you from embarrassment?

Your intent is known to everyone.

Fine.

But on the other hand,

you were sleeping so soundly just now.

Now I'm curious.

Other than me,

who cured your insomnia?

I'm not telling you.

Where's Cheng Yao?

It's lunch break. So she's having lunch.

You don't nap, and you won't let others rest, huh?

This is so good.

Tingting.

The ramen place here is really good.

I'll treat you to it another day.

Come to the office for a moment.

Some people.

They just won't leave you alone.

I'm not paying attention to you.

Cheng Yao

It's really you. What a coincidence.

It's me.

Your high school classmate, Wu Chen.

I was just worrying about not having a seat.

Do you mind sharing a table?

Please, have a seat.

What are the odds?

We haven't seen each other since high school graduation.

Do you work around here too?

I'm at the law firm upstairs.

So you've become a lawyer.

I just started not long ago.

That's good.

Since you're a lawyer, could you do me a favor?

Here's the thing.

There's a leader in my company

whose mother got involved

in an online loan investment program

and she invested nearly two million yuan.

And then, this loan company collapsed.

His mother was so anxious that she was hospitalized.

Since you're a lawyer,

could you tell me what to do in a situation like theirs?

What should they do to defend their rights?

I…

That's not my field.

You can ask your leader to consult

a professional lawyer specializing in financial fraud.

You speak so officially.

I asked because I saw you as a classmate.

Do you lawyers never answer questions

without a consulting fee?

No, it's because I am really not…

Brother.

When you have a stomachache,

which department should you consult?

The gastroenterology department.

What do you mean?

So you know that.

She said that she didn't provide

services in the area of financial fraud,

yet you're still forcing her to offer you legal advice.

So when you have a stomach ailment,

why don't you go see a proctologist?

Even if you see a proctologist,

you still have to register, don't you?

You're not spending a dime,

and you want to freeload, right?

Wait.

I'm just chatting with an old classmate.

What gives you the right to pry? Who are you?

I'm her boss.

I own her time.

And I don't allow her to waste time on someone like you.

Expecting a free consultation?

Why don't you just generously tell her to beg on the streets?

Besides, her field of expertise is family law.

If you ever need a divorce, you can seek her out.

As her boss,

I can ask her to give you a discount.

Sorry, I have a meeting.

I'll leave now.

What is that look of yours?

Well, Boss,

have you ever thought what if he was

a very close friend?

It would be awkward for me if you spoke to him like that.

A true friend

would not take advantage of you like that.

Besides, he didn't even know

your usual scope of business,

so how good of a friend could he be?

And what if he was someone

I used to have a crush on in school?

Liking someone who is all about flattery

and presenting borrowed gifts, a slick wheeler-dealer,

are you blind?

That makes sense.

Four years of undergraduate law studies

is about 35,040 hours.

One year of attorney internship

is approximately 8,760 hours.

Every lawyer has to go through

these 43,800 hours

to obtain a law license.

Time is the greatest cost for every lawyer.

One-minute free consultation for these people

is one minute of life wasted.

Every second is irreplaceable.

Next time, I will refuse properly.

Not only refuse,

refuse them with the worst possible attitude.

People who do not respect the professional labor value of lawyers

don't need our respect.

Although, Boss,

do you usually come here for noodles?

Didn't you send me the restaurant invitation?

I sent it to my good friend.

Boss, I was

texting my classmate and friend,

but I accidentally sent it to you.

Sorry, wrong window.

No problem, I have something to tell you as well.

I know being a lawyer is a very challenging

and demanding job.

Many people can't take it.

I will try my best.

No.

I don't think you have much talent for being a lawyer.

You would be better suited as a life assistant.

How about this, you can move back in and I will continue to pay your salary.

Life assistant?

That's taking care of my daily life.

For example, when the drain is clogged and needs to be cleared.

But I don't know how to unclog drains.

Do you think I do?

I'm glad to be

appreciated by my boss,

but I still want to be a lawyer.

Boss, the noodles here are very good.

Do you want some? On me.

No need. Come back to unclog the drain after work.

If it gets delayed further,

I'll consider asking you to compensate for my lost time.

Boss, it's already done.

This is the drain cleaner I bought for you.

You can use it if any pipe gets clogged again.

Just pour some of this, flush with water, and it'll be fine.

Understood.

Can I discuss

something with you?

There's a welcome party tonight,

and I still have some clothes inside.

I'll go change

and leave right after that.

Thank you, Boss.

Boss.

How come my suitcase is inside?

I brought it back.

You living in the company affects the company's image

I'll give you a chance

to move back in.

Mengting.

I'm telling you. This is bizarre.

Qian Heng actually asked me to move back in.

Oh my.

I suddenly thought of

a case I had seen before

in a legal affairs program.

There was a man

who had a conflict with his former colleague,

and this former colleague

threatened to kill him.

So this man

deceived a new colleague

to go home together.

When this new colleague went home,

he was killed by this former coworker.

No, stop. Qian Heng has offended so many people.

He received so many threatening letters.

He couldn't have encountered a psychopathic killer, could he?

I'm telling you, it's possible.

Think about it. He's so wealthy.

If he really didn't encounter any trouble,

why would he compete with you for a rental? Right?

Why would he give up a big villa or a spacious apartment?

I knew he wasn't well-intentioned.

I have to go now.

Get dressed first.

Boss.

I don't think it's convenient to stay over.

I'm going to the welcome party.

I think it's because of the cue.

How about this, you use the cue and I use the cane, okay?

I'll have a round with you using a cane.

Go play by yourself.

Yu Fei, come on.

Sure.

Let's do it.

Can you play?

No problem, I'll use my cane.

Mr. Wu, sorry I'm late.

It's fine.

Is your sister parking the car?

I forgot to tell you. My sister couldn't make it.

Sorry about that.

Couldn't make it?

Well.

I guess I told you too late.

Alright.

So, how about this, Cheng Yao.

You update your family members' information,

like your sister's contact details

into our new employee system.

For the next time there's such a major event,

I'll personally inform them, okay?

Okay.

- Come on, come on. - I'll update it right now.

Take your time. No rush.

[Cheng Xi added to contacts]

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

I'm not doing anything.

You're acting strange.

Is there something happening in our group?

Nothing. I just want you to leave early

and I can bear the work pressure alone.

Don't do that.

Worst case, I won't drink today and I'll share it with you.

- No need. - I can help out too.

What do you need to bear?

Everything's good.

Anyway. Come on.

Our goal today is to have a good time.

Help me take a group photo with the new employees.

Okay? Come on, come on.

The new employees of this month, come on, come on.

Let's all take a photo together.

Cheng Yao, stand with me.

Come, didn't we buy flowers?

- Right, give her the most beautiful one. - Thank you.

Welcome, everyone.

That's great.

Come, get a little closer.

Three, two, one.

- It looks good. - It does?

- Great. - Thank you everyone.

- Looking good. - Welcome aboard.

I'll edit it and send it to you.

No need for that. Send it to me right now.

The original picture, come on.

What's the rush?

Cheng Yao, you look so cute in this one.

Welcome new employees on board.

Guys.

I'm really sorry.

Something just came up,

and I need to go work on it.

So if you'll excuse me,

I'll let you enjoy yourselves.

However, all expenses today

will be charged to my account.

Awesome!

Yu Fei, Bao Rui. Take care of everyone, alright?

No problem.

Don't worry.

Rest assured, Mr. Wu.

Come on, let's have fun.

True to being a partner of Junheng,

he looked so happy at the mention of work.

I have invited two

elite lawyers from other law firms

both senior partners.

In our circle,

they're well-known eligible bachelors.

Cheng Yao, feel free to make a move.

By all means.

What are you doing?

Don't be scared, I'll protect you.

Why aren't you introducing girls to me?

I only introduce eligible bachelors.

Not ordinary guys like you.

Ouch.

- I thought you were healing from your injury. - Exactly.

Here's the thing.

I have a nickname within the circle,

called 'Nightclub Package'.

You can call me 'Party Package'.

I used to hit the club in a wheelchair.

Now, I'm on crutches.

Let alone clubbing, even bungee jumping won't be a problem.

Let me show you.

Mr. Bao is physically disabled but with strong will.

He likes to come to places like this

and hates going to work.

Just mention it to Mr. Qian

If you do, I'll kick you out.

- I'll kick you out of Glory and Wealth now. - You see that?

- Do you believe me? - Being around Mr. Qian for a long time

can make you stressed.

- Bao Rui. - I can do it.

Here they come.

Let me introduce you.

Li Chengxuan from Jincheng Law Firm.

He also specializes in family law.

- Promoted to partner last month, right? - Yes.

This is Zhang Yang,

an expert in inheritance law.

He closed a case with a huge attorney's fee

last month.

This is Cheng Yao,

our new colleague.

Tan Ying, you have met.

This one, he's not important.

Yu Fei, Yu Fei, we've met.

- Let's play one round. - Come on.

- I'll use my cane. - What happened to your leg?

It's fine, just a minor injury.

When it comes to insomnia,

there are many types.

Among them, the most important

is the psychological factor.

In our daily lives,

frequent emotional agitation,

emotional unrest,

or sustained mental stress

can also lead to aggravated insomnia.

Sometimes,

the anxiety caused by overflowing

attention on the sleeping problem

can also exacerbate insomnia

and cause persistent insomnia.

When it comes to insomnia,

there are many types.

You are wrong.

You shouldn't drink. You're on medicine.

No, it's a sprain, look.

Cheng Yao, the drain is clogged again.

But I just cleared it. How could it be clogged again?

You must not have cleaned it properly.

You should contact the landlord or the property management.

Thank you for the welcome party, love you all.

How was your last case?

Almost over. It's been two months now.

You guys talk first.

I need to use the restroom.

Why are you going to the restroom again?

I want to. Back off.

To be honest,

I bet you won't last with Qian Heng

for more than half a year.

Cheng, if you want to switch jobs, let me know.

We're also a boutique firm specializing in domestic affairs

with a great colleague atmosphere.

I often communicate with my subordinates,

and I won't give you the cold shoulder.

If you come to our firm,

you will know

that even though we're both lawyers

and both partners,

the difference between individuals

can still be significant.

Li Chengxuan.

It's been a while.

The last time I saw you

was about two months ago during the inheritance dispute case.

You were the opposing party's representative

who ultimately lost the final appeal.

No, it should be from a month ago,

at that custody dispute case.

Two children.

Ultimately, not even custody of one child

was secured for your client.

Indeed, we are both partners,

but the difference between people is still quite significant.

Come on, Qian Heng.

Now that you're here, let's have a drink together.

What case have you been working on recently?

Don't tell me you're competing for cases with me again?

Don't worry, I won't compete for cases with you.

Cases with an amount in dispute under fifty million

won't be an option for me.

Why are you so quiet?

Drinking silence?

Bao Rui.

Didn't you sprain your foot

and apply for working from home?

What are you doing here?

Boss, here's the thing.

I just received a message from Cheng Yao

saying that you came to the party.

How could I not be where you are?

So I asked my parents to help me up,

took a taxi and came right over.

I just arrived due to my poor legs.

Sorry for being late.

Boss, don't you usually not attend these events?

What brought you here unexpectedly?

The drain at my home is blocked.

And I'm looking for a plumber.

What a good boss.

Look, he's clearly connecting with his subordinates,

yet he uses an excuse

that doesn't make any sense.

We'll make a toast to you.

I drove, so I'm not drinking.

Just get a designated driver, Qian Heng.

It's not easy for us two to meet up.

Come on, have a drink.

No one is worthy of my driver's seat.

Why has everyone gone quiet?

Let's play a little game

to lighten up the atmosphere, okay?

- Sure, sure. - Yes, let's do that.

There are plenty of people right now.

Let's play…

Truth or Dare. What do you say?

Okay.

Are you sure you want to play that?

Didn't Mr. Wu tell us to entertain?

Yu Fei says he wants to play.

- I want to play, too. - Me, too.

That's three of us now, anyone else?

Since we're all here and having such a good time,

I want to join it too.

But I think Truth or Dare

is a bit outdated.

How about this, we play Dare by reciting legal articles.

Okay.

I'll start first.

The bottle spins.

The bottom and the mouth of the bottle each point to a person.

The person facing the bottom of the bottle asks first.

For example, the second clause of Article 1067 of the Civil Code.

The person facing the mouth of the bottle answers.

If they can't answer within three minutes,

they will be fined 50 yuan.

which will be confiscated

and used for the next group meal at the office.

Are you sure about that?

Does this mean we're gambling?

Gambling crimes refer to gambling in a group for the purpose of profit,

or making a business out of gambling.

The subjective aspect must be for the purpose of making a profit.

Is our purpose here to make a profit?

Was your criminal law taught by a PE teacher?

Let's start.

Civil Code,

Article 1046.

Marriage should be completely voluntary for both men and women.

No party shall be coerced by the other.

No organization or individual

is allowed to interfere.

Civil Code, Article 1076.

Civil Code, Article 1078.

Civil Code, Article 1343.

I have an urgent matter.

You guys have fun. I need to go now.

I have to go first too. See you.

Goodbye.

Take care.

January 1, 2021,

the Civil Code is officially implemented.

Please recite the Civil Code's

Article 1136,

Article 1137,

and Article 1142.

Wait.

Coming in packs now?

Group sale?

Civil Code Article 1136,

a printed will shall have more than two witnesses

witnessing in person. The testator and the witnesses

shall sign on every page of the will

indicating the year, month, and day.

Article 1137,

a will made in the form of audio or video recording

shall have more than two witnesses present for witnessing.

The testator and the witnesses

shall record their names or appearances

as well as the year-month-day

in the audio or video recording.

Article 1142,

a testator may revoke or alter

the will he or she has made.

After making a will, any act of the testator that contradicts the contents of the will

shall be deemed as a civil legal act

considered a revocation of the relevant provisions of the will.

If multiple wills are made and their contents conflict,

the latest shall prevail.

Have you remembered all of it?

Yes, we have.

Impressive, Mr. Qian.

Memorizing the legal regulations so well.

Salute.

I should also learn from Mr. Qian.

Why are you drinking so much? The alcoholic strength is 24%,

stronger than wine, you know.

Mr. Qian,

I think we can call it a day.

How about I take Cheng Yao home first?

I drove. I'll take her home. Collect the money.

Take it easy, take it easy.

Hold your wallet well.

Be careful.

Slow down, slow down.

Put the wallet in your pocket.

Take care.

I heard things right, didn't I?

Mr. Qian is taking a girl home.

I thought she was quite simple.

I've just realized she's not simple.

Come on. Don't think of everything in a negative way.

If your toxic boss has started to take care of people.

Isn't that a good thing?

That's true.

The boss can't just favor me alone.

It will incur everyone's jealousy.

Bao Rui, you still need to submit the evidence chain summary tomorrow.

Are you crazy?

Why are you talking business in chat groups?

What about you?

All three of us are here, so why are you starting a new group?

Are you going to chat or not? If not, I'm kicking you out.

This is a bad sign.

Creating three groups for four people.

What if you accidentally send an important file to the wrong group?

My advice is for your own good.

That won't happen.

Just make sure that the Boss isn't in the group.

Okay, now I'm relieved.

How come there's a thirty here? Who's cheating?

Isn't that money supposed to be confiscated?

Let me see, let me see.

Wake up.

Have some sobering tea in a bit.

Boss.

And you remember to remind me to drink sobering tea.

You're not completely devoid of human touch.

Sober up,

and you'll be able to unclog the drain.

I misunderstood you after all.

My diagnosis is that

the poison has infiltrated your vital organs.

It's hopeless.

What did you say?

I'm not feeling too well.

Don't give me that.

whatever you say or do needs evidence.

♫ Let the world make jokes ♫

♫ So be it ♫

♫ I just say I love you ♫

♫ Trusting the wild grass unconditionally ♫

♫ Might make miracles bloom ♫

♫ Setting off that firework courageously ♫

♫ At least it has blossomed ♫

♫ Spend the rest of my life ♫

♫ Building flawless moments ♫

♫ I am capable ♫

♫ Of being your one and only fairy tale ♫
