How about this?

If you help me with this,

next year Dai Zhong will be covering all budgeted profits

of Yi Zhong. What do you say?

Then you'll have my full support.

I keep thinking about how I always lose to you at chess.

Then I realized, it's a trick within a trick.

You've been playing a tough game. It's hard to beat you.

-I have to ask you something. -Go ahead.

You placed Wen Nuan in your competitor’s company

and let her work as Assistant to the CEO. What kind of move is that?

Wen Nuan is Zhan Nanxian’s assistant?

-You-- You didn't know? -No, I didn't.

Hello, Mr. Guan. I am Wen Nuan, the new Assistant to the CEO.

Wen Nuan?

HELLO

She's a newbie and she's pretty. I’m not used to it.

Then get used to it.

From today onward, Miss Wen will be taking over Yang Ying's position.

-Take a seat. -Thanks.

Today, let’s talk about the acquisition of Alpha.

Alpha? The one owned by the Leng Group?

Yes, we've already announced that we joined the bid.

Our competitors include Dai Zhong, Nan Xiang, Chang Hong, and Jing Xing.

The last three don't pose a threat.

Our real competitor

is Dai Zhong.

To sum it up,

I must acquire this project.

Okay.

Let's go over the technical situation

of the Leng Group in recent years.

-Get everything ready. -Okay.

-Boss, see you later. -See you later.

Wen Nuan?

Do your best.

Let’s go. Hurry up.

-Mr. Zhan? -Is there anything else?

Should I withdraw from the discussions concerning the Alpha case?

Didn't I make myself clear?

I said you must attend all future meetings.

Or do you have any special reason why...

you need to withdraw from these meetings?

When all's said and done, Shallow Cosmos' biggest competitor is Dai Zhong.

I don't want to get blamed.

It doesn't concern me who your boyfriend is.

You decided to come to 66th floor to work as a CEO’s Special Assistant.

I hope that you keep in mind...

who you are working for.

She’s back.

She’s back at your side,

in your heart.

-Is that right? -Cut! Okay, it's a wrap.

-Great, -Sis, it's done.

Thank you, Director.

Miss Yi Xin, you're amazing. It's such a touching scene. Good job!

-Thank you, Director. Thanks, everyone. -Thank you, Yi Xin.

Miss Yi Xin, it’s such an honor to have you as our female lead.

Director, I’m flattered. I bought high tea treats.

Yi Xin bought high tea treats. Thank you, Yi Xin.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

-Lele, hand out the snacks. -Okay.

I'm glad you are here.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get out of here

when the new investor arrives.

Do you mean Pan Weining from Yi Zhong?

Thank you for supporting me all these years.

Come on. I've been doing this...

all these years, haven't I?

-Okay, stop giving me food. -It's my job.

Have you lost weight? Are you working too hard?

I came to have lunch with you. Do I look like I'm having a tough life?

A girl shouldn't work so hard.

I have a great idea. Come and meet my parents as soon as possible.

Then you can rely on me and live a blissful life with me.

Isn’t that good?

Marrying a good husband should be a girl's top priority.

Men should be the breadwinners, right?

Tell me the truth. Is your mom pushing you to get married again?

Every time I try to tell you something serious, you always cut in.

I'm also being serious.

Your mom has certainly been reading last night's headlines.

You were holding hands with a female celebrity.

The night before, it was a model.

And the day before that, it was a girl from a rich family.

To be honest, I’m doing a good job as your official girlfriend.

I've ignored your womanizing for all these years.

No, it's not like that. It's not what you think.

She was the one holding my hand, not the other way around.

Entertainment news is entirely fake.

It was just a meal. Don't believe what you read.

Let’s talk about something serious.

Are you hiding anything from me?

What can I possibly be hiding from you?

Your new position at Shallow Cosmos. Assistant to Zhan Nanxian.

So I got a new job. It's no big deal.

-There's nothing else to be said. -Really?

Speak of the devil.

I've lost my appetite. Let’s go.

Let's go.

-Come on. -Zhu Linlu, what are you doing? Let go.

-Why are you panicking? -Let go of me.

Mr. Zhan.

Why is she back?

Wen Nuan.

Yi Xin, it's been a long time.

I didn't expect to meet a superstar here.

Don't you have any events scheduled today?

We're looking forward to your new drama.

Thank you for your concern.

No matter how busy I am, I always find time for Nanxian.

Well said. You just reminded me,

I should spend more time with my girlfriend.

Yi Xin, sit down and eat. The food's getting cold.

You have a good appetite, Mr. Zhan. You guys go ahead.

-We have to go. -Wen Nuan.

Let’s meet up sometime.

Cheers.

Zhu Linlu, let go of me. What are you doing?

I admit I overreacted just now.

But I don't want you to get bullied.

It's not my first day at Shallow Cosmos.

-Why are you making such a fuss? -I have every reason to.

You guys rarely saw each other. Now you meet up every day.

What if you run away with him someday?

I'd be left alone and then I might as well become a monk.

Are you finished? You were the one who sent out my resume.

Out of over ten companies, only Shallow Cosmos hired me.

You didn't say a word. Why are you doing this now?

I just don't know whose side you’re on.

Are you on my side or on Zhan Nanxian’s?

I don't care that he's fighting with me over Alpha's technology.

But now he's fighting with me over you. What does he want?

This situation is far from ideal.

I was offered a new position. What's the big deal?

Of course it's a big deal.

I know Zhan Nanxian too well.

You'll have to be careful when you're working closely with him.

I have known Zhan Nanxian for many years.

I know exactly what kind of person he is.

If he really wants you,

there's no way you can run or hide. Do you know that?

You are not listening to me again. Hey!

"Dear Nuan, let these roses

-kiss you on your cheeks." -Stop it.

"Love, Linlu."

Stop it.

Wen Nuan, you are so blessed. I envy you.

Ding Xiaodai.

Are you opening a flower shop?

-Mr. Zhan, no. -Mr. Zhan.

-It's Wen Nuan's boyfriend. -They're for you.

I'm giving these to you.

Mr. Zhan, are you allergic to pollen?

Wait a minute. I'll take care of it for you.

Mr. Zhan, here are the reports you wanted

and some coffee.

Yi Xin wants to treat you to a meal.

Okay, I'll ask Wen Rou.

Let's all meet up.

What's this got to do with Wen Rou?

We all know each other.

Besides, it doesn't cost you much to treat an additional person.

What are your hobbies these days?

Hobbies?

Reading books and cooking.

Not much else.

That's nice.

You've learned how to cook?

I wouldn't want to impose on you.

I'll just let Yi Xin know.

Okay. If there's nothing else, I'll excuse myself.

With regards to the Alpha project,

out of Shallow Cosmos and Dai Zhong,

which company will you help?

To my knowledge, didn't Dai Zhong

express interest in this project first?

Why can't Shallow Cosmos snatch a project...

that Dai Zhong is interested in?

What are you doing here?

I'm picking up my girlfriend.

-Picking up your girlfriend? -Yeah.

I won't disturb you then.

-I am here to pick you up. -Stop playing around.

I'm not playing around.

Okay, let's go. I'll take you home.

It's late at night and you're a pretty woman.

It's dangerous for you go home alone.

-Who else can guarantee your safety? -Let go of me.

-Right? Okay, get in. -Zhu Linlu, let go of me.

You have such a caring, thoughtful boyfriend.

Doesn't that make you feel happy?

Okay, get in. I'll take you home.

Be careful with your head and hands.

-Are you feeling cold? -Cold?

I'm not cold. I'm just disappointed.

Please don't send flowers to my office anymore, okay?

If you didn't like those flowers, I'll buy them from another florist, okay?

-You're so childish. -Childish? I'm very mature.

Did Zhan Nanxian put you in a tough spot?

No, it's just you--

If you keep doing this, how can I continue working at Shallow Cosmos?

I hope you lose your job.

If you lose your job there, you can come to Dai Zhong.

Dai Zhong's doors are always open for you.

I truly thank you.

You may be saying that,

but I know you're on my side, right?

Not bad.

Cool off, cool off...

Why can't Shallow Cosmos snatch a project...

that Dai Zhong is interested in?

-Nuan, you're back. -You scared me.

Why are you sleeping out here?

How can I relax and sleep if you're not back?

What happened? Are you tired?

No, I just feel that coming home these days,

it isn't as empty as it used to be.

It's nice to have someone around.

Then why did you go to the UK and stay there for seven years?

Why didn't you come back sooner?

I'm back now.

You may be back now, but why do I still feel so alone

unless I see you every day?

That's because I just got promoted. I need some time to adjust.

I’ve also been quite busy with a bid.

It won’t always be like this.

Nuan, you know that I don't support your decision to work at Shallow Cosmos.

Especially not as the CEO's assistant.

Zhan Nanxian knows you and Linlu are in a relationship.

He still made you his assistant and then announced

that Shallow Cosmos would also bid for Alpha.

-It's just a public attack against Linlu. -Sis.

It's just a coincidence.

However, you're well-informed.

Nonsense. I've been in this industry for years.

Nuan, it's not as simple as you think.

Zhan Nanxian built Shallow Cosmos from scratch.

We don't know what he’s been through over the past seven years.

He’s not the same man you once knew.

I really hope you consider changing your job.

It's okay, Sis. Don't worry about me.

It's late. You should go to bed.

Sis, what’s wrong?

Do you think of me as a nag?

No, I just want to rest. Don't overthink it.

Look at you. You have dark circles.

Get some sleep.

Go, go, go...

Okay, I know.

Lend me this.

-You should also get some rest. -You're using mine again.

To my knowledge, didn't Dai Zhong express interest in this project first?

Why can't Shallow Cosmos snatch a project...

that Dai Zhong is interested in?

Hello?

Okay.

See you tomorrow morning.

Good morning. What a coincidence!

Since we’re fated to meet, let me drive you to work.

You're the General Manager of Dai Zhong.

-I really can’t afford the fare. -That makes sense.

But the problem is, Dai Zhong's General Manager

cares more about beautiful women than his business empire.

Are you touched by my words?

Your words make me feel like a femme fatale.

I think I should keep a safe distance from you.

Stop. Stop right there! Hey!

I’ll stop teasing you. Your sister called and asked me to drive you to work.

-My sister called you? -Yes.

She was acting weird this morning.

She left in a hurry and didn't tell me where she was going.

Do you know where she went?

How should I know?

-Hurry up. You’re going to be late. -Didn't she call you?

Yes, she did call me, but she didn't tell me everything.

-Hello, good morning. -Morning.

-Morning. -You big girl.

-Don't touch me. -Hurry up and get in.

-All right. -Why so many questions?

Here. French-style sandwich and a cup of hot coffee.

All of your favorites.

Don't you find me thoughtful?

You still remembered?

-You do have a good memory. -Did I owe you something in my past life?

If I treated other girls like this,

they would be throwing themselves at me.

You, on the other hand, are just being sarcastic.

You didn't even say "Thank you."

Thank you, Mr. Zhu.

-That’s better. -If you don't start driving, I’ll be late.

What's the hurry? I've found the shortest route.

If you don't trust me, you should trust the GPS, right?

-Drive. -Sit tight.

Zhan Nanxian,

some things have been buried in my heart for too long.

If I don't say this now, I’ll go crazy. I…

I like you.

Long time no see.

-Sir, what would you like? -An Americano.

-Okay. One moment, please. -Thanks.

It's been a long time. You have changed so much.

I don't think you asked me out this early in the morning

just to see how much I've changed.

I forgot how busy you are these days.

I won’t waste your time. I'll cut to the chase.

I asked you out because of Nuan.

What's wrong?

Did my assistant complain that her boss is mistreating her?

I just want to know why you took on Nuan as your assistant.

If you’re curious, why don't you call my Human Resources Department?

Let them answer that question.

Okay.

I don't care about your motive.

But as Nuan’s older sister,

I have a favor to ask you.

-Go ahead. -Don't bring up the past.

Don't say anything about it.

It's been tough for her all these years.

I don't want her to get hurt again.

Wen Rou, you're overthinking it.

She’s just one of many employees at Shallow Cosmos.

She’s not important enough for me to treat her differently.

It's great that you think that way.

I came to see you today because of this matter.

Hearing that puts my mind at ease.

You’ve asked me not to mention the past,

but since you’ve brought it up...

do you know how many times...

Wen Nuan has called me at night throughout the years?

She sleepwalks.

She sleepwalks?

But it’s not that serious.

She felt so stressed while studying in the UK

that she sleepwalked.

When she sleepwalks, she calls me and Linlu.

But I only found out today that she called you too.

I’m sorry she disturbed you.

Nuan did it subconsciously.

Subconsciously?

You haven’t told her about this, have you?

I suggest that you don't tell her about this.

You know how she is.

If the gossip spreads throughout the company,

it won’t be good for her.

Did you know that Shallow Cosmos plans to acquire Alpha?

I knew it. You used the food to bribe me.

-Do you want me to spy for you? -Of course I do.

-Forget it. -All right, I know.

You won't be a spy or betray Shallow Cosmos.

But think about it.

In their eyes, you're my girlfriend.

Now you are the assistant to Mr. Zhan of Shallow Cosmos.

You deal with confidential information on a daily basis.

If anything happens,

will Zhan Nanxian trust you like I do?

I don't care what people think.

I'm just there to do my job.

True.

-Thank you. -Bye.

Bye.

Nuan.

What?

If you need anything, call me.

Just because of this?

Don't work too hard. Take care of yourself, okay?

-Don't touch me. Just talk. -Off you go.

-Bye. -See you.

-Drive safely. -Will do.

-I’m sorry. -It’s okay.

Thank you.

The 66th floor’s badge is different.

Thank you.

-What’s wrong? -Nothing. Congratulations.

Thank you.

-Mr. Zhan. -Mr. Zhan.

Morning.

Take this elevator.

From now on, you can take this elevator.

The password...

is your birthday.

My birthday?

By the way...

Wen Rou came to see me this morning.

Did you complain to her about me?

No.

As Zhu Linlu’s girlfriend,

why did you come to work here?

I accepted a huge check from Dai Zhong

and promised to be an industrial spy.

Leng Rufeng, CEO of the Leng Group,

placed a lot of importance on Alpha's acquisition.

Mr. Leng and his team will arrive in Shanghai tomorrow morning.

I have an appointment with him. He will tour our company for half a day.

I trust that everyone understands

the importance of this appointment.

The whole company's ability is a criteria for the bid.

Leng Rufeng will be like an interviewer.

His impression of us is vital.

During the half-day tour, we need show him how capable we are.

We can't give Mr. Leng any reason to reject us.

First, you have to know your enemy.

Everyone knows our old friend Dai Zhong has prepared for this for a whole year.

We shouldn't let our guard down.

We know Dai Zhong has made an appointment with Mr. Leng to meet him in the evening.

They don't want other competitors to have the opportunity

to get in touch with him before the bid.

There's no need to be nervous.

As long as we are prepared,

they can only lose to us.

I firmly believe that Shallow Cosmos will not lose to Dai Zhong.

That’s the wrong thing to say. We shouldn’t underestimate our rival.

Everyone needs to put in more effort during this period.

If we get this project, I’ll send everyone on an overseas vacation.

Great.

Mr. Zhan, the reception of Mr. Leng is extremely important.

Should we follow protocol and let the Administration Department handle this?

This time around,

Special Assistant Wen will take full responsibility for this task.

Ms. Du, your department will assist her.

Okay, consider it done.

Okay, that's all for today.

DAI ZHONG TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

We're here today to discuss

the reception for Leng Rufeng, the CEO of the Leng Group.

He'll be visiting us tomorrow.

I’m not targeting you,

but you called us here to talk about trivial matters.

Do you think my time is as invaluable as yours?

I have lots to do at the R&D department.

You have to put everything aside!

Leng Rufeng only has one day

to meet guests before the bidding.

We have also put a lot of effort

into inviting Mr. Leng here.

But before he comes here tomorrow,

he'll be taking a tour of Shallow Cosmos.

So I hope that

when Mr. Leng gets here, we can give him a warm welcome.

I don't want to lose at the starting line. Does everyone understand me?

Look,

if Shallow Cosmos wants this, just let them take it.

I really don't get it.

We have our own technical team. Why don't you invest the money in me?

You insist on buying it from others.

How much did the company invest in you? What have you achieved?

All right. I've made myself clear.

Our company and Shallow Cosmos have the best chance of winning the bid.

As soon as Mr. Leng gets here tomorrow,

the competition will have begun.

We must win the first round.

Were you looking for me?

Here are some important notes for tomorrow's reception.

I've printed them out. Please study them.

Anything else?

No.

-Nuan, you're back. -Yes.

Do you want dinner? I prepared it for you.

-I’m fine. I’ve eaten. -Then I’ll warm up a cup of milk for you.

Why are you treating me so nicely?

You've gone too far, you know.

You met with Zhan Nanxian?

-Are you mad at me? -What do you think?

But, seriously...

You're working late every single day. I had to warn him.

If he dares to bully you, he'll need to answer to me.

Sis, you’re very busy with your own work.

You don't need to worry about me.

Right now, it’s like your whole world revolves around me.

-Do you find me annoying? -Definitely not.

I just feel that...

even back then,

I was never your responsibility.

You don't owe me anything.

The milk's ready.

Hello, Mr. Leng. I'm Wen Nuan, Mr. Zhan’s assistant.

Mr. Zhan has been expecting you.

Thank you for visiting our company. We won't let you down.
