[Shine On Me]

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

[Episode 35]

Ms. Qian,

it's already halfway through the year

and you still haven't paid
your management fees.

What do those fees have to do with me?

Go bother whoever
is actually responsible for them.

Gong,

why are you calling?

Did Chengyuan ask you to call me?

How is he?

Is he on his way over right now?

I have some good news.

The scammers were caught.

It's just that they've spent
all the money.

Ms. Qian,

you know Mr. Nie

was hospitalized

and is still in recovery.

I'll pass along the word,

but honestly, he won't have

the bandwidth to look after you anymore.

It's best if you stop
contacting each other.

Also, about this place

you're staying in,

Mr. Nie thinks the location
of it is not good.

I'm just

giving you a heads-up

that I'll be bringing some clients by

to tour the house soon.

I'd suggest you start clearing out

your stuff now

to save everyone the headache.

What?

So he's seriously just throwing me

out on the street?

Not a chance.

I'm not going down that easily.

Is Nie Chengyuan

at the office?

I'm going over there to settle this.

If Mr. Nie doesn't want to see you,

making a scene won't get you anywhere.

If you let things get ugly,

you might end up losing everything

you've already got.

Ms. Qian,

I'd suggest you think twice.

Think twice?

My foot!

He thinks he can shake me off
that easily?

Dream on.

The owner is looking for a quick exit,

so you're getting

a real steal here.

Both the renovations

and the location

are top-tier.

I'll

have to see if the decor

is really my vibe.

Mr. Gong.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hey there.

They are here to see the place.

Hi.

This garden is massive.

Is the house sitting empty right now?

Now...

I spotted you guys from upstairs

and rushed down to let you in.

Come on in.

Please.

- Someone's living here?
- Let's head up and take a look.

I've got the whole thing on camera.

Okay, right this way.

Come on in.

Feel free

to poke around.

You're living here.

Are you the owner?

Ms. Qian is just a tenant.

That's right.

I'm just a tenant,

not the owner.

But

I've been here

for years.

If you want the real scoop
on this place,

I'm your person.

So, are you moving out soon?

Yeah.

Honestly,

I've grown pretty attached
to this place.

If it weren't

for my husband getting sick

and kicking the bucket right here,

I wouldn't even think of leaving.

Wait, someone died in this house?

What's your problem?

I told you a thousand times

to do your due diligence and make sure

there was no baggage like this.

Now you're showing me a house

with this kind of history?

You're

wasting my time!

We checked

everything.

Mr. Gong,

what's the deal here?

Nobody has ever died in this house.

Ms. Qian,

stop making things up.

You can be sued for slander

for saying stuff like that.

My bad. I tripped over my words.

My husband didn't die here.

He just got sick here

and died somewhere else.

Where do you even find these listings?

Mr. Gong,

you can't sell a house like this.

Ms. Qian,

Mr. Nie has been

more than generous with you.

Why pull a stunt like this?

Look,

if the price is right,

this house will sell sooner or later.

You're

just being a nuisance to me.

It's not going to change the outcome.

Mom,

what are we going to do?

Do we really have to pack up and leave?

I guess our time here is up.

Nie Chengyuan is heartless

and doesn't care
about our history at all.

That's just how men are.

Back in the day,

if he'd met someone better,

he'd have

ditched me even faster.

Just start

packing

our clothes and bags,

and take back that old place

we've been renting out

and move back there.

I've had

my luxury moments
all these years after all.

It was a good run.

Are you kidding me?

I was doing just fine before this.

We had our own place.

I could've found a stable job

and married a decent guy.

But you

completely upended

my life.

You dragged me here,

gave me a taste of the high life,

and now you think

we can just go back?

How am I supposed to do that?

Do you have any idea how much judgment

I deal with every day because of you?

No one here looks up to me.

But what choice did I have?

I was just a kid

when you brought me here.

I kept telling myself

things would get better,

and that I'd have a glamorous future.

And now, out of the blue, it's all gone.

It feels like a total fever dream.

If we move back,

how are the neighbors going
to look at me?

They'll laugh me out of town!

My life was just starting,

and you ruined it.

Nianyuan.

Don't call me that.

It's gross.

Mom,

all you ever care about is yourself.

You're so incredibly selfish!

If you hadn't lost all that money

and dragged me down with you,

I'd still be

living comfortably.

How can you...

how can you point the finger at me?

Fine,

no more money from me.

Rong.

Siliang.

Why'd you drop by my office

on a workday?

Are you here on business?

Ma'am, what can I get for you?

A latte, please.

Coming right up.

I came to say goodbye.

Goodbye?

Where are you going?

Shenzhen.

My flight's tonight.

After I finished packing,

I realized I had some time to kill.

Since your place is on the way
to the airport,

I thought I'd stop by.

I wasn't planning

on telling anyone.

Is this

a company transfer?

No,

I quit.

Why

the sudden job hop?

Shengyuan

is such a great company.

People are dying to get in there.

I think

I mentioned

that I was working

on a project with my boss.

Yeah.

Well, I found out later

that one

of our competitors

is actually a relative of Nie Xiguang.

So, my boss wanted me

to go talk to Nie Xiguang

and fish for some insider info.

You didn't actually go, did you?

Of course not.

I'd never

give in.

Right.

You wouldn't.

Then the bidding opened last week,

and my boss lost to them.

He lost to Xiguang's relative.

So your boss took
his frustration out on you?

Is that why you're leaving?

He took it out on everyone.

But he didn't fire me.

What grounds
would he even have to let me go?

Honestly, it would've been better

if he did fire me.

At least I could've got
a severance package.

I left on my own terms.

He's just not

the capable, bold leader

I thought he was.

There's no point

in staying on a sinking ship.

Besides,

everyone knows

his time is up.

Staying under him

would've been a dead end for my career.

Sounds like

jumping ship's the smart move.

But why go all the way to Shenzhen?

Wouldn't it be better
to just land another job

here in Shanghai?

I just need a change of scenery.

Back when we graduated,

I always thought

we'd stay the same as we'd always been.

But the truth is,

even living in the same city,

we've drifted apart.

And now,

you're moving even further away.

Did you say goodbye

to Zhuang Xu?

I think we said our goodbyes

a long time ago.

When we were job hunting senior year,

I really believed

Nie Xiguang had hidden the call

for my interview.

At the time,

I was both furious and thrilled.

It felt like

I'd finally caught her slipping,

and I couldn't wait
to tell the whole world.

Zhuang Xu told me

I never really cared about him,

and that I only used him

to feel superior.

You're just

using me...

to one-up her.

She's your imaginary enemy...

♪I crave no warmth in winter♪

but it was never about me.

How could he say that?

♪And let the sweat run wild in summer♪

Now that I think back,

maybe

he was actually right.

♪In the bustling city♪

Maybe

I was never obsessed with Nie Xiguang

because of him.

♪I'm still lost in yesterday♪

I was just trapped

by my inner demons.

♪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♪

What are your inner demons?

I shouldn't have pinned my hopes
on others.

♪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♪

Siliang invited Xiaofeng and me
out for dinner,

which is how I found out about this.

I honestly don't get why Rong

is so dead set on going to Shenzhen.

It's not like the Yangtze Delta

is short on opportunities.

Her just up and leaving
like that without a word

actually leaves a pretty bad taste
in my mouth.

I don't think I'll feel

much of anything

regarding her leaving.

It feels like

our college days

are fading into the distance.

You're right.

All that's left now

are just fragments of memories.

Everyone makes their own choices.

I'm sure she'll do just fine

wherever she ends up.

Fair enough.

I guess I'm done worrying about her.

I'm downstairs at your dorm.

Boss, I gotta run.

I'm heading out for dinner.

With that gorgeous boyfriend of yours?

You bet.

And with my family too.

Cheers!

Come on, cheers!

Let's celebrate us landing

that huge project with Fengteng Group.

Let's have a seat and dig in.

Yun,

it's such a shame you missed

the victory party

in Nanjing the other day.

We were at it until midnight.

I already had plans that day

and couldn't really reschedule.

My bad.

I'll take a drink as punishment.

No worries.

Today

is just our little family celebration.

For a win like this,

we should be celebrating it

over and over again anyway.

Exactly. Count me in.

I'd like to make another toast too.

Call me superficial,

but I'm beyond stoked

that you guys snatched that project

right out of Yuancheng's hands.

Mom and Xiguang, you guys killed it.

This one's for you.

What about me?

You weren't even on this project.

You seem to have it
all figured out, don't you?

You little brat,

you sure know how to butter up

your mom and Xiguang.

Dad, aren't you used to it by now?

Do you still feel a bit salty

about it?

Not at all.

Definitely not.

Your mom

is a total powerhouse.

I'm completely onboard with her.

Hey,

stop trying to stir the pot

just to see what you can get out of it.

Come on,

let's have another round.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

So much for the good news,

let's talk about the other big thing.

Xiguang, Lin,

everything was such a whirlwind
the other day

that I didn't get a chance to ask.

What's the deal
with you two buying a house?

Buying a house?

Yeah.

While we were in that bidding meeting,

they actually went out

and bought a place.

No way, Xiguang.

Don't tell me you're getting married?

Stop it.

I did buy a place

with Xiguang.

I'll be

starting my job

at the Brain Science Research Center
in Songjiang later this year,

so we picked a spot

that's a decent commute

for both of us.

Isn't that heading for marriage?

That's the long-term goal.

For now,

it's just to avoid
a long-distance relationship.

Lin,

you're surprisingly chill
about all this.

I mean, I'm eager,

but I feel secure,

so there's no need to rush.

Plus, Xiguang is still young.

She only graduated a year ago.

So, who's the developer?

Let me see

the floor plans.

I'm obsessed with looking at those.

It's a local developer from Suzhou.

You can see the rest
if you keep swiping.

Looks like it's still in Suzhou.

That's not exactly close to you, is it?

It's not bad.

It's about a fifty-minute drive.

It looks closer for Xiguang, though.

Lin,

are you really planning to commute

between Suzhou and Shanghai
every single day?

Yes, Ms. Jiang.

You don't think that'll be exhausting?

Like you're sacrificing way too much?

If I'm heading back to Lujiazui

or my grandparents' place from Songjiang

during rush hour,

it can take even longer

than driving to Suzhou.

So,

I really wouldn't call it a hardship

or a sacrifice.

Besides,

wanting to see Xiguang every day

is my own choice.

How can that be a sacrifice?

That is golden.

I need to put that down.

That's definitely a pro tip
for when I meet

my future girlfriend's parents.

Jiang Rui,

you aren't secretly seeing

someone at college,

are you?

No way.

If I were dating someone,

I'd be shouting it from the rooftops.

Fair enough.

In that case, your allowance
stays exactly the same next semester.

No raises.

What?

You can't be that petty.

Since when is my allowance

tied to my relationship status?

I really need an extra two hundred.

My current budget

just isn't cutting it

for my personal growth and well-being.

Be specific.

Well, you know, the video games.

No way you're getting more.

By the way,

Xiguang,

how did your dad react

to this?

He sent me a WeChat message

saying congratulations.

And what did you say back?

I was thinking

that since I only played

a small part in it,

I shouldn't act too proud.

But since he was

being so complimentary,

I just said "You're too kind."

What about your grandpa, Lin?

Did he have anything to say?

He called

just before dinner.

He said he'll be in Suzhou
in a few weeks to see me.

Is he coming

to settle a score?

I should go with you.

He didn't sound like it,

but

if he really is coming to grill me,

I'm definitely bringing you along.

I'm honored.

We're in this together.

With the recent wave
of support policies,

especially the one with six measures
to promote the development of PV,

the future of the PV industry

is looking pretty clear.

By launching

a high-tech product line

right now,

you guys are bound to snag

a much bigger piece of the market.

You've really done a solid job
running Shuangyuan.

I'm just new here.

If the company

can land these orders

and get back on its feet,

it'll be thanks to your backing,

plus the grit of Mr. Zhang

and the veteran staff.

No need to be so humble.

Didn't you ask me

about changing the company name?

Why hasn't it happened yet?

Xiguang and I talked it over,

and we figured we'd secure
a few orders first.

Good call, you're being very thorough.

What was the name again?

Guangyu?

That's the one.

Total young couple vibes, huh?

Still, it sounds much better
than Shuangyuan.

Feels like the name
of a real player in the PV industry.

Grandpa,

besides the name change,

there's something else

I wanted to run by you.

What's on your mind?

I want

to set up

a 15% equity incentive pool

to reward

our top tech

and management talent.

Since I'll be focusing

on medical research down the road,

Xiguang is going to be doing
the heavy lifting

when it comes to running the business.

So,

I want this equity to come

entirely out of my own stake

instead of doing
a proportional dilution.

This is just like the name change.

Since the shares were given to you,

the choice is entirely yours.

But

you've really got to think this through.

The company bylaws

are crystal clear:

voting power

is tied directly

to equity.

By doing this,

you're basically giving up

any leverage to challenge

Xiguang for control of the company.

I get it.

Thanks, Grandpa.

Did she

agree to this too?

I haven't brought it up with her yet.

I wanted to get your take first.

You knew to ask me about the name change

and the equity pool,

so let me ask you this:

when you helped

Xiguang's relative

snatch that project away

from Shengyuan,

why didn't you ask

for my opinion then?

How are you going

to explain that one to me?

Grandpa,

things are tough in the PV industry

and opportunities are rare.

When there's a window of hope,
you have to take the shot.

If Xingjie had come to me first,

we would've gone all out
to help him, too.

Is that what you really think?

Half of it is.

Well,

let's start with the part
that's just talk.

Xingjie would never come to me,

so I'm just talking big.

And the true part?

If he actually came to me,

how could I turn down business?

I wouldn't be happy about it, though.

I'd just be holding my nose
and taking the paycheck.

Oh, you.

You've been a little smart aleck
since you were a kid.

All jokes aside...

if Xingjie

had even half your brains

and composure,

I could leave the future of Shengyuan

in his hands.

That Fengteng project

was supposed to be a test for him,

but I wasn't just looking

at the final result.

I was looking

at the tactics and character

he showed

along the way.

You're in great health,

so there's no rush

on the succession plan.

But

I do have a thought,

if you don't mind me sharing.

Go ahead.

I've actually been wanting to suggest

that you groom Xingxiu.

Xingxiu?

Xingle and Xingxiu are both bright,

but Xingle is a bit of a free spirit

and doesn't like being tied down.

Xingxiu is steady and reserved.

As a successor,

she might actually be the better fit.

Why isn't he back yet?

When did you get in?

Why didn't you say anything?

How did it go?

Is your grandpa gone?

Did he give you a hard time?

Look, I know I said I'd stay with you,

but this work thing just popped up.

The equipment is arriving in a few days,

and there's a mountain of stuff
to double-check.

Work comes first now, does it, Ms. Nie?

Is my life going to be
like this from now on...

Oh, stop being so dramatic.

Honestly, it's not even about the work.

I just thought about it

and realized it'd be better

if you two talk alone.

Well, thanks for being so considerate.

It's the least I could do.

Don't get too choked up about it.

So, seriously, did he

chew you out or what?

Nope.

In fact, I actually used the chance
to ask him for a favor.

What kind of favor?

I invited Grandpa

to host the rebranding

and unveiling ceremony for the company.

You're good.

Easy thing.

Anyway, let's call it a day.

You stood me up today,

so dinner's on you.

Sure thing.

Let's hit the cafeteria.

I'm actually meeting up with Mr. Hua,

so we can talk business while we eat.

Forget it.

I just remembered

I have some stuff to finish up here.

Oh no.

Let's go.

Mr. Lin,

you haven't officially quit yet.

And even if you had,

you're still a shareholder.

You can't just slack off.

The industry is booming.

We need to be on top of our game

and grab every opportunity.

Let me see.

Xiguang,

are you

a closet workaholic?

Of course not.

Not like a workaholic's lips...

Since when did you get

so cheesy?

Hmm...still the lips of the same guy.

You're that sure?

Why don't you

kiss me again just to double-check?

Yep, the same one.

Xiguang,

there's actually something

I've been meaning to ask you.

What?

Do you actually care
about running a business

and the PV industry?

I don't want you forcing yourself

into this for anyone's sake.

Why would you even worry about that?

I'm doing this

because I'm genuinely interested.

I mean, I don't have

any lofty goals,

like

turning Guangyu

into some global empire or whatever.

I just want to do my best

at whatever is right in front of me.

Plus,

after helping Aunt land that project,

I realized...

I actually like winning.

I caught on to that a long time ago.

Since when?

Back when we were skiing
at Changbai Mountain.

You only had two days of lessons

before you were off

practicing on your own,

trying to become a pro in secret

without even telling me.

Does that count?

Of course it does.

It's the little things
that give you away.

Let's go,

my dear Ms. Nie.

Time for the meeting in the cafeteria.

Fine, but for the record,

once this busy streak is over,

I'm checking out for two weeks.

No,

make it a month.

And what does that actually look like?

Burning through every last second

of my vacation time.

Just lying around all day,

going out, spacing out,

binge-watching shows and reading novels.

Am I part of it?

Duh.

I'm gonna need someone
to hand me my snacks

while I'm lounging in front of the TV.

I'd rather be your "pillow."

A pillow that fetches snacks?

Deal.

Aren't we doing this together?

I'm the one who covered it up,

so of course you should be the one
to uncover it.

It'd be weird if I did both.

Getting all ceremonial, are we?

In that case, give me a countdown.

You're the one
who's obsessed with the ceremony.

Five.

Consumed with revenge?

Not really.

Honestly, I didn't even know

what I wanted to do.

But...

I know I would never hurt you.

I just didn't expect

that after only one day,

someone would just cross my path.

So, how did that feel?

Were you secretly gloating?

I wasn't gloating at all.

I was actually a bit panicked.

Shoot,

I haven't even made a plan yet.

How did she end up right in front of me?

If I hadn't been there myself,

I'd almost believe you.

You looked me right in the eye

and said, with that total poker face:

"Miss Nie,

you're clearly cut out for

anything but finance.

As of this moment,

you're moving to Administration."

It was just instinct.

There's one more reason

why I changed the name.

You're always here and then gone.

I just wanted to feel like

a part of you stayed behind.

♪That winding, twisting road we walk♪

♪Stopping and going countless times♪

♪Love feels less rushed that way♪

♪The rain from yesterday
has finally cleared♪

♪And today the sunshine
feels so warm and bright♪

♪I used to hide away in the corner♪

♪But now I long
to follow close behind you♪

♪How much longer
must I keep missing out?♪

♪When it's only you
who makes my heart race♪

♪I've rushed through the endless crowd♪

♪I'm holding your hand at this moment♪

♪Clutching tight, with tender arms♪

♪I just want to keep your gentle smile♪

♪I've made it past the endless trials♪

♪I'm gazing into your eyes
at this moment♪

♪No turning back
or fear of winter's chill♪

♪The sunlight shines like you♪

♪And like me♪

♪Dreams realized, broken and gone♪

♪Nothing more than a dream all along♪

♪Wake up to the bright lights
on the streets♪

♪I'm here by your side♪

♪The sky dimmed, deepened and died♪

♪Nothing more than some rain inside♪

♪Open the window
to boundless blue skies♪

♪Side by side, just you and I♪

♪Side by side, just you and I♪
