[Shine On Me]

[Adapted from Gu Man's novel, Shine On Me]

[Episode 33]

Here he comes.

You scoundrels!

Who gave you the nerve

to cause such a scene at my door?

Mr. Nie,

you're a big shot,

not just in Wuxi,

but across the entire country.

We wouldn't dream of causing trouble for you.

Qian Dashun

hit us up for some cash, and we each ended up

lending him around two or three hundred thousand.

He told us you were the guarantor.

Since we couldn't get a hold of you,

we had no choice but to come here

and ask your parents.

Qian Dashun borrowed money from you?

What does his debt have to do with me?

Why isn't Nianyuan back yet?

I wonder

how the search is going.

You two really played me for a fool.

Now look what happened.

I've borrowed nearly two million from the villagers.

If you don't help me pay them back,

I can never go back after this.

He told everyone he was borrowing it for you

and even said you guaranteed it and signed for it.

It's all right there on the IOU,

plain as day.

A couple of days ago, he got drunk

and told us everything went south.

Then the very next morning,

he just vanished

and won't pick up his phone,

so who else were we supposed

to turn to but you?

Where's the IOU?

I told you to bring the money

I gave you before.

Who told you to borrow from others?

What happened to the money I gave you?

Did you blow every single cent?

Were you gambling again?

I...

Unbelievable.

I kept my money with you

because I didn't want Nie to find out.

Some plan that was!

Now it's all gone!

What am I going to do?

I don't have a penny

left to my name!

Just ask Nie Chengyuan for more.

[IOU] Is it for real?

Nie Chengyuan is vouching.

Would a big boss like him

be short a few million?

Of course he wouldn't.

He's just giving me a break,

letting me make some quick money on the side.

I'll take the lion's share,

and you guys can have the rest.

You're not playing me, are you?

Why would I lie to you?

Nie Chengyuan is my son-in-law.

There's no way I'm scamming you.

Fangping and him have been legally married for years now.

If you're out, then quit wasting my time.

I'll just put in less and take a smaller cut.

Turn it off!

You have to keep the villagers

in check

and don't let this spiral out of control.

We can't let Nie Chengyuan

hear a whisper of this.

I'll find a way to get the money from him bit by bit.

Maybe

everything will be fine.

Nianyuan is already at the factory

in Suzhou looking for her.

We might get news

any minute now.

Is that Nianyuan calling?

It's Chengyuan. Don't make a sound.

Chengyuan,

why are you calling me during work hours?

Where is Qian Dashun?

Is he at your place?

No.

I haven't been in touch with my dad

for quite a while.

Why the sudden interest?

Are you sure?

Do you have any idea

your dad has been borrowing money

all over the village

using my name?

Is any of this true?

I

didn't know.

Tell me the truth!

I...

He borrowed...

a little bit.

I only just found out myself.

Nearly two million, and you call that a little bit?

What do you need all that money for?

Haven't I given you enough?

Nianyuan.

It was Nianyuan.

She told me about an investment

that was a sure thing

and asked me for some capital.

At first, it actually paid off,

and we got the principal and interest back.

I had no idea that when we reinvested,

those two would just take the money and run.

I...

Chengyuan.

I was scammed too.

So, Mr. Nie, what's your call?

Look,

if you don't own up to this,

we'll have to post it all over the Internet.

We can't just keep it bottled up after getting ripped off.

Gotta let it out somehow.

Get the IOUs

and their transfer records

verified

and sorted.

See?

I knew Mr. Nie was a smart man.

Things would get very ugly

for everyone

if this blew up into a scandal.

So,

besides the principal,

what about our interest?

You want interest?

You are fully aware

this has nothing to do with me.

I don't have to give you a single cent.

If you want interest,

you won't get anything at all.

You can take your chances in court with Qian Dashun.

But...

isn't he your dad-in-law?

Since when do I have a dad-in-law?

Mine died a long time ago!

I'm settling this debt today,

but there won't be a second time.

And

if I hear

even a whisper

of this outside,

I...

Fine.

Alright.

We'll take the loss.

Forget the interest.

Let's just leave it at that.

I don't agree.

You have to pay Li and the others

back,

including interest

at the bank rate.

You can settle up with Qian Dashun later.

But

the Wu brothers

and those two

won't get anything.

They're always

thick as thieves with Qian Dashun.

They probably set this whole trap

up together.

I won't allow it.

Mom,

let me handle this.

Just stay out of it.

Handle it? My foot!

You pay them back today,

and in a few days, someone else will claim

Qian Dashun owes them money.

What then? You're going to pay them too?

Is something wrong with your head?

Unbelievable.

I've thought it over,

and the only way is to call the police.

Let them investigate and find out

exactly how much

that old geezer owes.

This is fraud.

He should be locked up.

Mom, let's take this inside.

"Inside"? For what?

Mom.

There's nothing left to say.

Are you afraid of losing face?

After the scene you caused today,

everyone in this village knows.

Now you're worried about your "face"?

You didn't care much for your dignity

when you were fooling around

with Qian Fangping.

Look at this.

Guang's boyfriend is here

for the very first time,

and you've dragged this filth

right to our doorstep.

I can't even hold my head up anymore.

You've dragged our family name through the mud.

I am beyond humiliated!

Guang, call the police.

Don't.

Go ahead!

Don't!

Do it!

- I said call them! - Mom!

Dad.

[Radiation Area, No Entry When Light Is On]

Guang,

did I chew your dad out so hard

that he actually collapsed?

Don't worry, Grandma.

Don't overthink it.

Dad probably just

got worked up and passed out.

This isn't on you at all.

If anything, it's Qian Dashun's fault.

Exactly.

It's all on that old geezer

and on Chengyuan himself.

So don't let it get to you.

But I cursed him, saying something's wrong with his head.

Could there be something actually wrong up there now, Lin?

I wouldn't go that far.

Grandpa, Grandma,

why don't you both have a seat?

It's going to be a while

before the CT results are out.

Have a seat, Grandpa.

Alright.

Doctor,

what's actually wrong

with my dad?

Are you the patient's daughter?

Your dad's right internal auditory canal

is significantly enlarged.

There's an isodense lesion

in the opening area.

We strongly suspect an acoustic neuroma.

A tumor?

An acoustic neuroma

is a benign tumor.

It's usually not life-threatening.

Excuse me,

but would it be okay if I took a look

at the raw CT scans

on your computer?

The lesion is right here.

It's not very clear

on the CT.

We'll need an MRI to confirm.

It's most likely an acoustic neuroma,

measuring roughly two centimeters.

That's on the larger side,

but fortunately, the compression isn't that severe.

The adhesion shouldn't be too bad either.

Acoustic neuromas

tend to adhere to the auditory

and facial nerves.

If the adhesion is serious,

it can lead to a range of facial

and hearing symptoms.

Are you a neurosurgeon?

How could you tell all that?

I used to be.

I've performed

a few acoustic neuroma surgeries myself.

So what do we do now?

We still need an MRI

for further confirmation.

If it is confirmed,

we'll have to get him in for surgery to have it resected.

Craniotomy?

Then we'll get the MRI as soon as he wakes up.

A tumor

out of nowhere?

He's only fifty, for crying out loud.

He's still in his prime.

Back when he was with Jiang Yun,

things were great.

But now?

He's let Qian Fangping brainwash him

into a total idiot.

Not a single day of peace since she showed up.

Even if he was dead set on remarrying,

he should've at least found someone decent,

with actual character.

How could he be so blind

to trust a con artist like Qian Dashun?

Now look where that's gotten him.

A tumor.

What on earth are we going to do?

Grandpa, Grandma,

don't stress yourselves out too much.

The doctor and Yusen said

it's a benign tumor.

Malignant ones are incredibly rare.

He'll be fine once it's surgically removed.

I can't even imagine the toll

he'll have to endure with going through brain surgery.

Grandpa, Grandma,

at least try to get a little something down.

I'm not eating.

Grandpa,

are you still feeling dizzy?

I'm fine.

The scare snapped me right out of it.

What I have is just minor stuff

but here he is so young

and facing a major crisis like this.

It's all that drinking and those late nights

catching up to him.

You're awake.

Dad.

- Easy. - Easy.

Hurry,

lie back down.

It's okay.

Where am I?

Miss.

- You passed out. - My dad is awake.

You're in the hospital.

I'll go get the doctor.

Mom,

what are you crying for?

What's wrong with me?

Don't hide it from me. Give it to me straight.

First of all, don't start imagining the worst.

The doctor said it's not life-threatening.

The CT scan shows

you might have

a benign growth

in your ear.

But we still need an MRI

to be sure.

What kind of growth?

A tumor?

That's impossible.

How could I have a tumor?

Doctor.

How are you feeling?

Still dizzy?

Much better,

but my right ear won't stop ringing.

We need to get that MRI scheduled as soon as possible.

Is there still time to do it today?

Tomorrow is the earliest.

It's too crowded here,

and we have to wait in line.

I'll go to another hospital.

Public hospitals are always crowded,

but I'd still recommend

getting treated in one.

I have

my own professional medical consultants.

Where's my phone?

Just listen to Lin.

He helped your dad with his dizziness

and it cleared up in no time.

What does he know?

He's fine for minor aches and pains,

but how can he handle a tumor?

My consultants

are all seasoned professionals.

Besides,

even if we switch hospitals,

when it comes to the surgeon down the line,

I'm going with the best,

public or private.

Grandma,

let him handle it.

Told you.

This company

[Andong Wealth Advisors] was only on a short-term lease,

and they moved out just last month.

Excuse me,

[Deqiu Eatery] where's Miss An?

Miss An.

About this tall,

wearing a red coat,

with big eyes.

You met her last time.

To be honest, I have no memory

of this Miss An you're talking about.

She's

the factory owner's daughter.

You were the one hosting us last time.

You were super polite to her

and kept calling her Miss An.

The owner's daughter?

What owner?

Isn't this the restaurant

for the factory next door?

I heard it was mainly for their VIPs.

It used to be,

but it's been independent for a long time now.

By the time it got to our boss,

it had already changed hands twice.

But,

the factory does send their VIPs

over here all the time.

But isn't the factory owned

by someone named An?

I checked it online.

It's definitely An.

True,

but word is

she only has a son.

No daughter.

Li,

you've got a good memory.

Do you remember

hosting a customer

named An last month?

The one who was with me.

It rings a bell.

Skinny,

red coat?

Exactly.

When she booked the table,

she told us her name was Miss An,

so of course that's what we called her.

I remember

she showed up pretty early

and specifically told us

the guests were important,

so we should pull out all the stops.

She even took me for a stroll around the factory.

The security at that plant

is pretty lax.

It's easy to find someone

to show you around.

Fangping,

we're in the clear.

Wu told me

Chengyuan covered all our debts,

so I can come home tomorrow.

I told you

we should've just talked to him sooner,

but you just wouldn't listen.

Give Wu a call

and find out the specifics.

Hey,

Wu,

you absolute scumbag.

What the heck were you doing

causing a scene at my son-in-law's?

You think I'd actually stiff you?

I just went away for a few days,

and look at you, getting all worked up

and making a complete spectacle of yourself.

Drop the nonsense, alright?

Your son-in-law?

That big shot

doesn't even recognize you as family.

Mr. Nie made it crystal clear

his dad-in-law passed away ages ago.

Don't even dream of getting a single cent

out of me from now on.

And that "son-in-law" of yours

got so livid that he collapsed

and was hauled off to the hospital.

What?

Nie Chengyuan is in the hospital?

Let me tell you,

your free ride is officially over.

Wait,

Nie Chengyuan is in the hospital?

What exactly happened?

He hung up.

He said he passed out from pure rage.

You should give him

a call.

Did you find Qian and Mr. Zhao?

No.

I've looked everywhere.

The factory isn't even hers,

and that investment firm is a ghost town.

It's all fake.

The whole thing is a sham.

They're just a bunch of con artists.

A scam? For real?

What about Luo Ke?

Is he a fraud too?

Luo Ke?

He got taken for over a million himself.

And he's just letting it slide?

Doesn't his family have some serious pull?

Can't he pull some strings to track them down?

I asked him.

He said he doesn't care.

To him, it's just pocket money for a couple of months.

As long as his dad doesn't find out, he's fine.

It's over.

We're totally wiped out!

I put everything I had into that,

and now it's all gone!

Good grief!

You idiot!

You've completely ruined me!

I only put in two hundred thousand at first,

and I pulled it out.

You're the one who insisted on investing more later.

How can you even think of pinning this on me?

If you hadn't been out

running with that shady crowd,

I never would've fallen

for such a massive scam!

Yuan,

don't panic.

Your step-dad covered all the money

we borrowed from the villagers.

It's okay if we're broke for now.

Once things settle down,

we'll just ask him for more.

Just play nice and say some sweet things.

Really?

Mr. Nie really paid it all back?

He doesn't blame us?

Blame you for what?

You guys were scammed too.

A few million

is just pocket change to a guy like him.

He has always had

a soft spot for Fangping since young.

It's fine.

Fangping,

just butter him up a bit.

You know how men are.

They're all the same, really.

I'm afraid things are different this time.

His tone on the phone today

was off.

What's so different about it?

A few million

is nothing to him.

Since he's sick,

go take good care of him

and everything will blow over.

Just give him a call

to show you care.

I should've never had you.

Sorry,

the number you have dialed is powered off.

Please try again later.

He's not picking up.

I'll try again tomorrow.

Based on the MRI results,

we can basically confirm

it's an acoustic neuroma.

It's 2.1 centimeters in diameter

and requires surgical removal.

Why didn't you warn me about this before?

I recall you mentioning

symptoms of dizziness and tinnitus,

but every time we scheduled a check-up,

you were too busy with work

and didn't show.

Without an examination,

an acoustic neuroma is indeed very difficult to diagnose.

The dizziness went away after I took some meds back then.

So, what's the plan?

Last I heard

from the doctors at People's Hospital,

they'd have to cut his head open.

Surgery for an acoustic neuroma

usually involves opening the skull.

The outcome

really depends on

how skilled the surgeon is.

We tend to use

the preservation rates of facial and hearing functions

as

the benchmarks for a successful surgery.

A top-tier surgeon

can achieve

a facial nerve preservation rate

of over 80%

during long-term recovery.

However, as for hearing preservation,

the best data in the country

is only around 40%.

What does that mean?

Are you saying he might go deaf?

And what does facial preservation mean?

The location of an acoustic neuroma

is quite tricky.

It has adhered to

the auditory

and facial nerves.

In an ideal scenario,

surgery can prevent facial paralysis,

but there is a high probability

of losing hearing

in one ear.

Even in the best-case scenario,

hearing will still be

significantly weakened.

Removing an acoustic neuroma

is one of the most challenging procedures

in neurosurgery.

It really puts a surgeon's

technical skill to the test.

How did he end up with this?

We don't even have

a family history of it.

I told you

that the Qian family was bad luck,

but you wouldn't believe me.

Find me the best doctor.

My hearing must be preserved.

We've already put together

a list of the top surgeons,

along with their pros, cons,

and success rates.

The first few

are renowned experts in the country.

Our top recommendation is Dr. Tan Zhi

from Tianhe Hospital.

He's one of the nation's leading authorities

on intracranial tumors.

There's another doctor

who isn't on the list

because he's quite young,

only around 30.

However, he has an amazing track record

and he studied abroad

under a world-renowned expert

in acoustic neuromas.

While he hasn't performed

a massive number of surgeries,

his success rate is remarkably high.

His preservation rates for both hearing and facial function

are world-class.

Which hospital is he at?

Songshan Hospital.

Surnamed Lin,

he's the protégé

of the neurosurgery authority Li Shuzi.

Should we

try to get in touch

with him?

Since he's young,

we didn't list him

as a top recommendation just to be safe,

but we could certainly

bring him in for a consultation.

Then bring him in.

Contact all the good doctors.

There's no need.

Just stick to the others.

Dr. Lin

from Songshan Hospital

hasn't performed surgery in a long time.

Dr. Liu,

you really need

to update your information.

That is

from two years ago.

He was a sensation in the industry back then,

but

I haven't heard much

about him since.

I was actually planning

to look into his status.

Guang,

how do you know that?

Grandma,

the Dr. Lin he's talking about

is Lin Yusen.

How can you be so sure?

Lin is a common surname,

and there are promising young doctors

everywhere.

Besides,

why are you just getting here now?

Dr. Liu is already finished.

Dr. Liu

arrived earlier.

Dr. Liu,

is it him?

Indeed,

it is Dr. Lin Yusen.

Mr. Nie,

a doctor with that kind of talent

is extremely rare.

Doctors like him are few and far between.

Calling him one in a million wouldn't be an exaggeration.

They definitely aren't "everywhere."

Why would he stop doing surgery?

Such a shame.

He was in a car accident

and messed up his hand.

[Taihu Lake High-end Medical Center]

Alright, here's the last of them.

Mr. Nie, I'll be heading out then.

There's one more thing.

What is it?

Just spit it out.

What's with the hesitation?

The South City Villa

has called me several times

asking about you.

They said they can't reach you.

How should I respond?

You didn't tell her where I am, did you?

I wouldn't dare say a word

without your instructions.

Ignore it.

I don't want to see her.

Also,

cut off

all her expenses and fund requests immediately.

Understood, Mr. Nie.

Gong,

how is Chengyuan doing?

I'm really worried about him.

Ms. Qian,

I'm sorry,

but I'm not at liberty

to discuss Mr. Nie's situation.

Please don't put me in a difficult spot.

Chengyuan has some misunderstandings about me.

You've got to help me get through to him.

I really didn't know

my dad had borrowed that much money.

Tell him

I just want to see him,

just once.

I'll leave

as soon as I find he's okay.

Otherwise, I'll be on edge

and I won't be able to sleep a wink.

I'm sorry, Ms. Qian.

Mr. Nie said

he doesn't want to see you for the time being.

You can

stay in the house for now

since he didn't mention that,

but he won't be covering

any further expenses.

That's impossible.

Chengyuan would never treat me like this.

What exactly happened to him?

Is he being controlled

by those two old folks

from the Nie family?

We live in a society ruled by law.

Nobody would dare do that.

If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up.

What's the deal?

Is that scumbag Nie Chengyuan

really turning his back on you?

I messed up.

I was so panicked that day.

I should have just said

I had no idea about your debts.

If you didn't know,

there's no way he would've helped me pay them back.

Now look at us.

He's even cut off our living expenses.

He won't pick up my calls

or reply to my texts.

I don't even know where he is.

If I could just see him,

I could talk him around,

but if he won't even meet me,

what am I supposed to do?

Mom,

what if

I ask some of my friends

at the hospital?

Maybe they can find out

which hospital Mr. Nie is in.

Friends?

Your friends are useless.

Turn your ringtone off.

It's getting on my nerves.

Mom,

it's Luo Ke.

Maybe he found the scammers.

Put it on speaker.

Hello,

Luo Ke.

Did you find Qian

and Mr. Zhao?

Qian my foot.

Where would I even find her?

My dad found out

and forced me to go to the police.

My reputation is shot.

Look,

I'm calling to ask

if you want to report it together.

A larger total might carry more weight with the police.

And besides, if I'm not the only one,

I won't look like such a total chump.

If we report it,

can we get the money back?

There's a chance, I guess.

I'm just worried that by the time they catch them,

the money will be mostly spent.

But we just get back

what we can.

Let me think about it.

If I report it,

I should probably do it in Wuxi.

It's all the same.

Whatever.

I just wanted to let you know.

Mom,

maybe

we should report it too.

If they catch them,

we might actually get the money back.

Exactly.

Let's report it.

If all the money is recovered,

wouldn't it all be

ours?

Nie Chengyuan cares so much about his face.

There's no way he'd ask you

for that money back.

Report it?

Yes.

Fangping,

stop stalling.

If those two scammers

get caught

and we haven't reported it,

but Yuan's friend

has,

what if they don't give us

our share of the money?

You're right.

Nie Chengyuan can turn on

his own wife just like that.

Who knows

how he'll treat me later?

Now he's completely gone dark.

If

something happens to him,

I'll be left with nothing.

Getting the money back is the only thing that's real.

Once it's back,

it's ours.

Nianyuan,

report it.

Do it now.

I'm going by myself?

You good-for-nothing.

I'm coming with you.

Grandma?

Grandma.

Guang,

you're here.

Why did you come down?

Just out for some fresh air.

Your dad has been in a foul mood lately.

He's been snapping

at every single person who comes by from the company.

I can't even stand to be around him.

He's always been proud.

With this disease,

if after the surgery...

He must be really anxious right now.

I was worried sick before too,

but I've come to terms with it these past couple of days.

It's not life-threatening,

so as long as he's still breathing, that's plenty.

We're all human.

Everyone has their health issues.

Besides,

if he stays in such a bad mood,

won't that just make things worse?

Right?

Thank you, Lin,

for taking the trouble

to drive Guang back and forth these past few days.

It's no trouble at all, Grandma.

Plus, there's a lot of work

at the company lately,

so I have to travel between Suzhou and Nanjing anyway.

It's all on the same route.

Alright.

Has a surgeon been picked for Dad's operation?

It's settled.

Your dad insisted on waiting

for a foreign doctor

called "Will" something.

William Schneider.

That's the one. You really know your stuff.

So, how is that doctor?

Dr. Schneider

is a top neurosurgeon in Germany.

I've looked over

all the test results Xiguang sent.

Mr. Nie's hearing has weakened.

If the tumor is severely adhered to the auditory

and facial nerves,

the surgery will be extremely difficult.

Professor Schneider

happens to be an expert in this field

and has published several papers

on strategies

for preserving nerve function.

He's the perfect choice

for the lead surgeon.

Let's head over

to the doctor's office first.

This is Dr. Schneider's profile.

Miss Nie,

you can take a look.

[William Schneider]

We don't have any issues

with the choice of doctor.

It's just the timing.

If the surgery is pushed back

by a week to ten days,

would that cause any problems?

I recall

from our last call

that you were leaning towards

finding a local doctor

and operating as soon as possible.

Ideally,

yes.

However,

for intracranial surgery,

the patient needs

to remain calm and positive.

Since

Mr. Nie is being so insistent,

I'd suggest

going along with what he wants.

We'll monitor

his condition around the clock

to ensure

the surgery goes as smoothly as possible.

That makes sense.

Thank you, Dr. Liu.

I'm going to go check on Dad.

Wait for me.

Okay.

Is Lin not coming?

Dad has a bit of prejudice against Yusen,

so he's sitting this one out

to avoid any awkwardness.

How can he be so ungrateful?

Guang,

you should head out early later.

There's not much to do here anyway.

Don't keep Lin waiting.

Grandma, it's fine.

I'll just find a spot downstairs

to get some work done.

I'm fine.

It's just a minor surgery.

Once I'm out,

we will get together.

No drinks for now, though.

That's not it at all.

Where did you hear those rumors?

Fine,

I'm hanging up now.

Dad,

how are you feeling today?

What is wrong with you?

I told you not to call

the police.

Why did you do it anyway?

Do you think

just because I'm stuck in this hospital bed,

I can't keep you in line anymore?

What are you talking about?

Still trying to keep me in the dark?

The news is all over Wuxi.

I've been getting calls

all morning.

On the surface, they're "checking in" on me,

but really, they're just fishing to find out

how much I got scammed for!

You're grown-up now,

can't you be a bit more mature

and have some perspective?

A few million is nothing.

Just let it go.

How is that more important than my corporate image?

In business, your reputation is everything.

You can't even get your priorities straight.

How could you let a measly few million

get to you like this?

You're my only daughter.

All my money will be yours anyway.

What's the rush?

What on earth are you saying?

When did Guang ever call the police?

So it wasn't you guys?

I see what's going on now.

Someone reported a scam,

and because it's linked to you,

everyone is calling you. Is that it?

Grandma and I weren't the ones scammed

and aren't even involved,

so we couldn't have called the police.

We only thought about it that day

because people were at our door causing a scene.

That's long over now.

It's way too late to go to the police.

If you

want to be the fall guy

and pay off someone else's debts,

that's on you.

We have even less reason to report that.

Qian Dashun borrowed money,

he couldn't pay back

and skipped.

The people who got fleeced

was either him or his daughter.

They're the ones who called the police.

Wuxi is a small place,

and plenty of people know

about you and Qian Fangping.

If she went to the police

and got recognized,

of course

it would blow up

and point back to you.

Why didn't you

suspect them first

instead of coming at me?

Guang,

my sweet granddaughter,

don't be upset.

I will give him a piece of my mind for you.

You've completely lost your wits.

No wonder people say

a new woman in your life makes you forget your own child.

You and Qian Fangping aren't married yet,

and your heart

is already in the wrong place.

I'm done taking care of you.

I'm washing my hands of this.

You've got money, right?

Go hire some more consultants

and caregivers.

Let Qian Fangping and Qian Dashun

wait on you.

Since you people are such "family," after all!

Guang, let's go.

You think I called the police

because I wanted the money back

and didn't care about your reputation?

Haven't I considered

your reputation enough?

Ma Nianyuan used my name

to lure Yusen to Wuxi.

Yusen got into a car accident on the way

and can never hold a scalpel again.

His career is ruined.

Did I ever tell

my mom about this?

Did I tell Grandma?

I didn't tell a soul.

And

after Yusen found out the truth,

he never mentioned it to a single member

of his family.

Have we not protected

your reputation enough?

This involves

Lin too?

Lin's accident

was Ma Nianyuan's fault?

And what did we get

in return?

We got you targeting him even harder,

even blocking his share transfer.

Of course,

that's your right as a shareholder,

which is why

I never approached you about it.

But I truly don't understand.

How can you

feel no guilt

about indirectly destroying

someone's career?

Instead, after learning the truth,

you doubled down.

Is it because you know

you're in the wrong

and you're just taking it to the next level?

Are you acting like

you don't care

just to cover up your own guilt?

Nie Xiguang!

You keep saying

I'm your only daughter,

but all these years

you've been busy looking after

your first love and her daughter.

Where did that leave me?

When I was studying in Nanjing,

how many times did you visit?

I work in Suzhou,

and before you knew about Yusen,

did you ever come to see me?

Not once.

Yusen thought

I was the one who lured him to Wuxi,

so he hated me for being heartless

and ignoring him after the accident.

If I hadn't gone to Suzhou

and uncovered the truth,

I might have spent my whole life

taking the fall for Ma Nianyuan.

If a man

as capable as Yusen

hated me,

would he

retaliate?

Did you think about that?

Has Ma Nianyuan done

other things

in my name?

Are there

more "debts" I'll have to pay for her?

Now that the truth is out,

did you investigate?

Did you comfort me?

Did you punish her?

Were you even worried that what she did

might hurt me?

No.

You did nothing.

Not a single thing.

You took

Ma Nianyuan's word as gospel

regarding the accident,

and even two years later,

you're still slandering Yusen's character.

Today,

they were the ones who called the police,

yet your first instinct

wasn't to doubt them

but to blame me.

Dad,

do you actually love me

like you say you do?

Are you lying to me,

or just lying to yourself?

What a shame.

This is just a crying shame.

What are you doing here?

I ran into your mom downstairs,

so I walked up with her.

Mom.

I was nearby on business

and figured since you were visiting your dad today,

I'd come pick you up.

Since I was already here,

I thought

I didn't need to be so heartless.

A visit

is only natural.

I didn't expect to hear all this.

I think I'd better

stick to being heartless.

Xiguang,

you've been through so much.

Why didn't you tell me?

I...

I didn't

want you to be sad.

Then, as time went on,

I just didn't want to talk about it anymore.

I

stopped being sad over your dad a long time ago.

Lin,

I am so sorry.

Ms. Jiang,

this has nothing to do with you, Xiguang,

or her grandparents.

Does your mom know

about this?

I think...

a regular car accident

is easier for her

to accept.

Sorry to put you out.

Mr. Nie,

you're in a hospital bed,

so I won't kick you while you're down.

But sooner or later,

we are going

to settle this score.

[Taihu Lake High-end Medical Center]

It's getting late.

Let's all grab a bite.

Xiguang's grandma, you should come too.

Guang's grandpa is home alone,

so I should probably head back.

All right then.

Grandma, how are you getting home?

A ride is already set up for me.

I'll walk you to the car then.

Careful.

I will.

Lin,

once all this mess blows over,

you and Guang must come over

to our place.

I'll cook you something special.

I'd love to.

I'll definitely be visiting often.

I'll be off then.

Get home safe.

Let's have a simple meal.

You've been

running back and forth and must be exhausted.

Once we're finished,

just stay the night at home

and don't head back to Suzhou.

You too, Lin.

Don't worry about the drive.

We have guest rooms ready.
