Original subtitles

Okay.

That'll be all.

You can go.

DAI ZHONG TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

We're off work now, why are you still following me?

Sorry, we're heading the same direction,

and we got off work at the same time, it's hard to miss each other, right?

Same way? The address you put on your resume is the opposite direction.

-How can this be your way home? -This...

All road leads to Rome. Plus there is less traffic this way.

Even if it's a bit farther, it saves time.

Liu Rui, step back.

Back? Here?

Keep going.

Okay.

From now on,

this is the distance we should keep between us. Just like this.

-I'm afraid this is unacceptable. -Enough.

This is okay for outdoors.

If we were inside with you and other people,

you'd all be having a discussion while I hid in the corner.

-People would think I was being lazy. -Do you know what I mean?

Let me tell you one more time.

Our relationship is strictly professional.

There is no chance

for any other kind of relationship.

Okay, go home now. Ride safely.

You do care about me.

On your birthday...

we had a great time.

I'm sure your smile was genuine.

Why do you push me so far away only one day later?

I was drunk the other day.

And I only went on a ride with you.

Did I make any promises?

Do I have to change my attitude to you because of this?

The more you try to explain, the more your eyes betray you.

You are worried I'm irresponsible because I'm younger than you.

Or do you think I'm just fooling around?

If that's the case, then it's really unfair to me.

There is no fairness in the world of relationships.

Do you want to know what I'm concerned about?

Okay, I'll show you something.

Hello.

Ms. Wen, long time no see.

What's wrong, get dumped again?

Open up that bottle I saved here last time, will you?

Bravo, excuse me.

Do you come here often?

Every time I break up with someone, I come here.

You can say that my youth is stored here.

Does that mean that by coming here with you today,

I've become part of your youth as well?

Liu Rui.

I do appreciate you celebrating my birthday for me.

I admit that it was the most unforgettable birthday I've ever had.

I was very happy and very touched.

But since then...

I've become more and more miserable.

Why?

Is it because I pushed too hard and put pressure on you?

If that's the case, I'm really sorry.

I just thought all girls loved to be spoiled.

But I forgot the fact that

you are not other girls.

My ex is a colleague from work.

When we broke up, we made a big scene. Then I quit my job.

I think it's logical to think that having a relationship with a subordinate,

who's also younger than me, is very dangerous.

-If that's your concern, then I-- -Not just that.

You are right, I'm a person who's after passion and freedom.

Therefore, at the start of every relationship, I can't wait to jump in.

It never ends well.

It may be destiny

that my relationships will never last.

That's because you've never truly loved.

You might look fearless when it comes to your career.

Like you're indestructible.

But in your personal life,

when it comes to relationships, you are just a coward.

You're afraid to step into a relationship. You're afraid to lose, to make mistakes.

You taught me

if we enter some data incorrectly, we do it again.

One data entry mistake doesn't mean that you can't ever do accounting again.

I also taught you

that if you see risk, then you have to prepare for bad debt.

Liu Rui.

You're still young, you've got time to waste. But I don't.

There's a huge difference between us, we won't be happy if we are together.

We'll only bring harm to each other. There is no need for that.

But you won't even try,

so how can you know that we wouldn't be happy?

I don't want to talk about this anymore.

I think I've made myself pretty clear.

From now on, please keep our relationship professional.

-Are you out of your mind? -I heard your heartbeat just now.

It tells me you like me.

I don't have time for this nonsense.

Sorry Mr. Zhu, I have an errand to run. We'll discuss our collaboration next time.

Wait a minute.

How about I fill you in on the details?

-Linlu. -Why are you here?

We two must have some kind of connection

to bump into each other even at this place. We must be telepathic.

-I asked Wen Rou, she said you were here. -Your sister? How would she know?

Doesn't matter.

-Linlu. -Yes.

Are your client problems bothering you?

-My sister told me. -Yes.

I had no idea Shallow Cosmos' new clients all came from Dai Zhong.

If I'd known, I wouldn't have talked to them.

I'm really sorry.

No need to apologize. This is business.

Such conflict is par for the course.

No one can guarantee that clients will be yours forever.

There's no such thing as a permanent client.

If you can't give your clients what they need

someone else will.

So don't worry about this, this is no big deal.

It's all right, don't be too troubled.

We hardly ever see each other, let me buy you dinner.

-What do you want to eat? Menu please. -Okay, one sec.

-I should be the one buying. -Wow.

Okay, I agree. Here, have a look.

-Can I order the expensive ones? -Just order the expensive ones.

Waiter, I'll have all of it.

Okay.

What do you want?

Come in.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

What's this?

I don't believe I'm capable of carrying out my current responsibilities.

According to company rules, if you want to resign

we will need two months' notice.

And you may only leave Shallow Cosmos after I've approved it.

You are still a Shallow Cosmos employee. Get back to work.

Why are you doing this?

I'm not a puppet who follows every order you give me.

If that doesn't work, can I just quit?

Let me go.

Ms. Wen Nuan, what do you think this job is?

You can come and go whenever you want.

You have unfinished business with Zhu Linlu and yet you still flirt with me.

Now you've had enough, you just want to pack up and leave?

I told you, my relationship with you

is purely professional.

I'm not in a position to flirt with you.

Plus, you are so sweet to Yi Xin.

Everyone has faith in the two of you.

As to whom I flirt with...

that's my business.

Here, have a look at the menu.

-Crispy Tofu. -Crispy Tofu.

-Xiaodai? -Mr. Guan?

-You... -How come you are here?

I'm sorry, we only have one Crispy Tofu left, who wants it?

-Him. -Her.

-Make up your mind. -Just serve it, we'll order it together.

Okay, one moment.

Xiaodai, let's eat together.

Then you can have my tofu.

What?

I mean, then you can... I can eat your tofu.

No, that's not what I meant. My tofu is not that tofu.

I meant, we can both have this tofu.

I can't, I have to take it away.

There is a lot of work waiting for me at the office.

This isn't like you, normally you are not...

I mean, normally Wen Nuan is the hard working one.

Mr. Guan, do you know, Wen Nuan went to Mr. Zhan's office this morning.

After a while, she came out and told me she's going to quit.

What shall we do now?

Quit? That serious?

Mr. Guan, would you please help her out?

I don't want Wen Nuan to leave.

It's time for lunch now. Just eat. I'll go find Mr. Gao and see what I can do.

Really? That's great.

Every time you appear

all my problems seem to go away. I feel...

-very secure with you. -I'm that nice?

Yes, of course.

-Do you really like tofu? -It's okay.

Please make your order.

TOFU

Ms. Yi Xin, I saw that the guy is still waiting.

Let me call Mr. Zhan.

In fact, Mr. Zhan saw that guy at the filming site before.

So I told him everything.

When was that? What did I tell you?

Give me the phone.

I'm worried about you. Mr. Zhan also worries about you.

Yi Xin.

Hello, Nanxian, it's...

That thing Lele told you about last time. You don't have to worry about it.

Listen, being followed is a big deal.

It's all just Lele making a fuss.

No big deal, you're so busy with work, don't worry about me.

Are you sure?

Yes.

-I'm fine, don't worry. -How about this:

I'll come over to check on you after I finish work?

-Okay, bye-bye. -Okay.

-Oh, the air is filled with bitterness. -Right.

He seems upset.

Hey, man, could you please stop sighing all the time?

You are sighing because your assistant is quitting, right?

-Wen Nuan is quitting? -Yes.

Probably because of the Dai Zhong clients.

In my opinion, you should just tell her straight.

Dai Zhong is the one making all the little moves.

Mr. Gao reminded me that day.

Dai Zhong is hunting people everywhere at a great expense.

Dai Zhong stole a lot of our R&D staff.

-I'm pissed off as well. -Do you remember I told you that before?

Since the day Zhu Linlu hired Guo Ruqian. I knew this would come one day.

Fortunately you asked someone to contact Dai Zhong's clients.

Zhu Linlu won't play too rough because of the restrain.

Let's get prepared.

Thank you for your cooperation this time.

We will work together again next time.

-Okay, Ms. Yi Xin, we look forward to it. -Thank you.

See you.

-Okay. -Take care.

Okay.

-Bye-bye. -Bye.

Let's go.

Sorry everyone I'm late.

-Come on. -Come on.

A bit of traffic.

Mr. Pan, you're finally here.

Probably got stuck with some movie star, right?

Mr. Li, you must be joking. I was busy.

It was an urgent matter that I couldn't leave unattended.

That's why I'm late.

How about this, the usual way.

Whoever arrives late has to do three shots.

-First one. -Great.

-Great. -Second one.

-Good drinker. -Good...

Good drinker.

You can really drink.

Three cups.

-Good. -Good.

-Good drinker. -Everyone.

-Shall we start? -Okay, Mr. Pan, let's start.

What has once been shattered, can't be put back together.

What's wrong with me?

Nuan.

Sister.

How come you are taking meds again?

I've got a sore throat, just taking some vitamins.

What's up?

I used up my lotion, can I use yours?

Get some sleep.

Sis, I'm going to work.

You go first, I'm not ready yet.

-Bye bye. -Bye.

SLEEPING PILLS

It's sleeping pills indeed.

DAI ZHONG TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.

Mr. Zhu, recently our clients

are being poached by Shallow Cosmos. What went wrong?

As director of the company, you are responsible.

Our motion today is about the budgeting issues in R&D.

I won't answer to anything irrelevant to this motion. If you want to know about it

I can hold another meeting to give you answers.

Answers?

As the director of Dai Zhong, instead of attending to your real duties,

your only focus seems to be on messing with our R&D department.

How would you have the energy to maintain our client resources?

I'm afraid that's the reason why our partner companies have been poached.

The way I see it, all you're able to do is give up without a fight.

You might as well just quit.

Such competition is inevitable.

We lose clients, clients switch to other companies. That's all normal, right?

No pain, no gain.

I hope you will come to your senses.

I'm the director of Dai Zhong. I know the company's strategy better than you.

Before the final outcome reveals itself,

there's no need to rush.

On the contrary, I want to question your department's budget deficit

in two consecutive quarters.

I need a reasonable explanation from you.

Dad, Zhu Linlu has made some pretty big moves recently.

He spent big bucks and recruited most of the R&D staff from other companies.

If this continues

my department will be completely overthrown.

Zhu Linlu has control of accounting. Now he's making a move on your R&D department.

Seems this bloke is not taking his uncle seriously.

I can't just wait it out.

-Mr. Gao. -Mr. Gao.

Mr. Zhan is not in.

Not in?

Wen Nuan, can I trouble you to pass this file to him later?

Mr. Gao, I've already handed in my letter of resignation.

It hasn't been approved yet, but...

I don't think I should be handling such important documents. Xiaodai.

-I'll leave this with you. -Xiaodai. Wen Nuan...

I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding between you and Mr. Zhan.

What misunderstanding?

My role is in fact a bit awkward anyway. So...

Okay. Only you two can work out your own problems.

Xiaodai, would you help me?

Mr. Zhan, Mr. Gao dropped by today.

He asked me to pass this to you.

Ms. Wen...

Xiaodai.

Here are some original files, take them.

-Remember to scan and save it. Take care. -Sure.

What's the matter?

Nothing much, time to go, I'm just checking in.

I don't have any work for you. You can take off.

Are you staying back?

You should take good care of yourself.

See you.

Coffee of love sent by a sweet angel.

How do you know he sent it?

Come on, I saw Liu Rui walked out of here just now.

He's my assistant, I'm tired and he got me a coffee. What's wrong with that?

No, nothing wrong.

Okay, stop gossiping.

-Since you're here I need to speak to you. -What's the matter?

Last night I saw Nuan taking meds. I asked her what they were, she said vitamins.

I went and checked this morning, she was taking sleeping pills.

-Sleeping pills, again? -Exactly.

Her doctor was very clear

that she shouldn't keep taking sleeping pills.

Right, but I can't just ask her directly. What do I do?

How about this, I have an idea, but I need your help.

What is it?

Where are you?

New Concept and Fashion, yes, I'm here.

I don't see you.

Where are you?

The way you rushed over here

-I'm touched. -Where the hell are you?

Turn around.

-My sister told me. -What?

Zhu Linghong blamed you again for losing clients in today's meeting, right?

No big deal, I can handle it myself.

Besides, don't worry about me, will you?

It makes me feel incompetent.

You always behave like you don't care.

Who knows what's really going on inside your head?

-What now? -I heard about this thing,

if you stare into the other person's eyes for ten seconds, you can read their mind.

Shall we try it?

Is it some kind of new trick you recently learned?

I'm calling my sister now to let her know I've found you, see if she wants to come.

Hello, Sis, I found him. I'll send you the location, come over.

You left already?

Okay, see you then.

Your sister is very busy lately, Has lot going on.

Let's not disturb her. She wouldn't come anyway.

You're dressed very sporty today. Do you want to jog with me?

My outfit is not sporty at all. Just a pair of board sneakers.

Um...

I recently found that jogging makes you feel better.

What upsets you is just like sweat, it dries out when the wind blows.

Also, jogging at night helps you sleep better, we should try it.

But jogging at night, won't your body get too wound up?

I think it should be okay.

Anyway jogging will do you no harm. Let's just try it.

How boring would it be if I had to jog alone?

As a friend, you're obligated to provide company.

-Just to be nice-- -Got it.

-Okay, take this. -What now?

Jog while listening to music. Relax while working out.

Wow, this is way too loud.

Learn to enjoy, turn around.

-March on. -Turn down the volume, please.

One two three.

One two.

We've only got a little man power, how are you going to allocate it?

Sis, the TV is too loud.

Why are you back so early?

Early?

I'm exhausted from jogging, I'm going to bed.

-You're tired? -Yes.

That's good.

Sis, why are you acting so weird?

I haven't been sleeping well.

You got tired jogging and you slept through the night. How good is that?

I really envy you.

Nuan, whenever you can't sleep, come and chat with me.

I can't sleep either.

When we were kids, you would come to me and tell me everything.

It bugged me a lot, but now I kind of miss it.

Sis, what's wrong?
