[Episode 1] [I officially hired her as my assistant just now]

I am Ling Xun Xun.

29 years old

A talent who is envied by other people.

I'm school belle from prestigious university,

who has excellent grades with beauty and wisdom.

While my classmates were hunting for jobs

without any luck,

I gave up offer provided by a big company.

And I married my love right after I graduate,

enjoying my life as his housewife.

I've got a very lovely son,

and I am so happy

that everyone gets jealous of me.

Fine.

I am Ling Xun Xun, indeed.

But then, I am not the school belle any more.

I graduated without any job offer.

Those things that I was proud of

now make me feel shamed.

My husband had had an affair,

so I asked for divorce immediately.

I didn't ask for any compensation at the time,

I finally realized something after that.

I was so dull.

I have no income.

How can I gain custody of my son?

I have to ask my best friend for a place to sleep,

and manage to find a job by sending resumes

like a fresh graduate did,

but maybe I am even worse than that.

Anyway, this is my choice.

No mater what, I have to carry on.

I will have my job eventually,

and take back my son's custody.

I don't give a shit.

I am only 29 and a half.

I must get everything right by my own.

Sorry.

What about we finish this case in private?

You've got full responsibility.

Call my assistant then.

Don't bother.

I gave you 2,000 Yuan.

Is he extorting my money?

The car is worth

about 20 million Yuan.

It's okay. It's okay.

You've car insurance.

It just expired.

There is no worse than bankrupt.

I'll take care of you.

You are so kind.

I should have married you before.

But you didn't.

You don't need to be honest at the moment.

I'd better stay alone.

Here.

This is my friend's resume.

Can anyone see

if there is any job available for her?

Manager Zhou.

Why hers again?

Honey, your friend hasn't worked for seven years.

And you stopped us offering her reception job.

How can we help you then?

Yeah.

That top graduate hasn't been employed for years.

She will get left.

Zhou Quan

Wait.

Can I get a ride?

You've got interviews?

I've sent 200 resumes

without any interviews.

But you've dressed up.

Always be prepared.

Just in case I have got one,

I can go immediately.

You impress me.

How is it?

Where are you going today?

To negotiate the car compensation.

Your suit crumples.

Why didn't you iron it?

It was too late last night.

And I didn't find the iron.

I felt sorry to wake you up.

So...

You shouldn't have.

That's it for today then.

Let's go.

Thank you.

Hello.

I am wondering is anyone at front desk?

Am I not?

Who are you looking for?

A receptionist.

I am looking for Assistant Wang.

Are you Ling Xun Xun?

Could you wait me for a moment?

I need to help my boss with his interview.

Sure. No problem.

What is cool about high salary?

I have to be 24/7 standby.

I've got my master degree.

How could you want me to be your babysitter?

I can do anything he wants.

Please give me a chance.

Who are they recruiting?

Why does it like a pageant?

The boss is looking for a private assistant

for 24/7 standby,

requiring domestic service

and business affairs management.

Isn't that good?

Why are they coming out and crying?

Don't you have your own life?

Don't you need to date boys?

24/7 standby means no private life at all.

But you seemed to want the job.

I am not really into it.

Look.

The boss is so handsome and rich.

If someone can date him,

it'd be much worthy than just being his assistant.

He is just looking for a babysitter,

while someone wants to be his wife.

So that child is actually a boss.

Is anyone else coming to a interview for today?

Here.

I am sorry.

I asked her to negotiate car compensation today.

I am gonna let her out now.

Please give me a chance.

What are you？

Nothing.

I mean what is your name?

My name is Ling Xun Xun.

29 years old.

Married right after graduate.

No working experience at all.

How could you be my assistant?

Private assistant is only dedicated to you.

Apart from being your secretary,

he/she also needs to take care of your daily life.

I am dedicated as I've been a housewife for years,

and

I've got enough carefulness and patience.

What a good memory you have.

You may cram for this interview by

doing some research about the job description.

No core words are missing.

Your argute reaction impressed me,

but the private assistant that I need

is not a person who can only recite something.

Thank you, Ms. Ling.

GM Cheng.

GM Cheng.

Why?

Did it hurt you?

Is your head harder

or my chest?

Mine.

What should you say?

I am sorry.

Get out now.

GM Cheng.

GM Cheng.

I hit your luxury car,

but my car insurance was expired when I got home.

I asked my friends who are in this industry,

they said that

it will cost me over half of a million Yuan.

I...I just got divorced

without any compensation,

so I really don't have much cash to pay you back.

If

you could offer me this job,

I will spare no effort to be professional.

As I really need this job more than anyone else,

I will work hard on it.

And

I can work

so that I can pay you back,

which is a win-win for us.

A win-win?

That is what you thought.

For me,

I am doing charity.

Sorry.

Your story wasn't touching.

I am not impressed.

You are not really qualified

to be my private assistant now.

Oh

When you go to other interviews next time,

don't forget to wear a neat coat.

I may wear a elegant wool skirt

and a brand-name cotton shirt,

showing my collarbone a bit.

I may be in a office by a view of river at 180 degree,

and eat my lunch provided by my assistant.

If

What if I didn't give up working at that time?

Would the opposite of me

become the one that I dream of?

Good morning, GM Cheng.

Why is she here?

Good morning, GM Cheng.

Holy shit.

What does she want?

Why does she keep staying here?

The security guard took her out.

But she still can find some way to get in here.

She doesn't want to distract us,

so she just stands there.

Let her in.

GM Cheng.

Are you calling me?

Ms. Ling.

I am so impressed by your persistence.

But you really don't fit the job.

Why not just sending more resumes elsewhere?

Why're you still putting all your eggs in a basket?

GM Cheng.

This is the only interview

that I've got for so long.

I apologize for the interview

that I gave you that day.

I shouldn't give you any impossible expectation.

GM Cheng.

I understand I may annoy you,

but this is the only chance I've got.

And

I've been here for a couple of days,

I found that you didn't find a suitable candidate.

Could you just give me a chance?

I will quit the job

if you still think I am not okay.

What I need is a personal assistant,

who should have his/her master degree

and TEM-8 certificate,

requiring the ability of cooking and cleaning.

He/she'd better get trained professionally.

always stand by in 24/7

without any personal life

and favor.

I 've got many individual habits in my life.

So you can't

really handle this job

by just wearing a near coat today.

As you can see,

I've interviewed more than a hundred people,

and each of them was better than you.

But these people

may not provide you

with a free trial,

but me.

GM Cheng.

Please order.

So you clean up this company,

including bathrooms.

No problem.

I am going now.

Please step aside a bit, Manager Cheng.

GM Cheng.

Why you again?

Don't keep wandering.

GM Cheng.

I know you don't want to see me again,

but I didn't mean to.

I thought I could do some cleaning after work.

I am leaving now.

Ms. Ling Xun Xun.

I have no idea what you are gonna do.

The reason why I asked you to do these

is because I want you to quit this job.

I don't want to deal with you any more.

How come?

I still owe you money.

Over a half million Yuan.

That is the reason.

Why would you come now?

You missed all of my call.

I didn't hear that.

Why don't you call me back then?

My phone is out of battery.

So you are holding a toy, not your phone.

GM Cheng.

You still have a business dinner tonight.

Don't forget.

You are nearly late.

Let's go then.

Okay.

I am talking to my son.

Don't you think?

Boss Cheng.

As his assistant,

it's necessary to fulfill my duty.

Assistant?

An assistant owes you money.

So he hires you by giving you a half million Yuan?

Right.

He bought my time

and my service,

I must fulfill my duty.

This way, GM Cheng.

Lady.

I've just heard that

he neither wants to deal with you

nor employ you.

What the hell are you?

Boss Cheng.

It was a interview

that he gave me just now.

Thank you for your cooperation.

She's right.

She was just hired

about 30 seconds ago.

That was her quiz.

She did a great job.

Cheng Li.

Don't pique me like this.

And don't play a joke on your work.

Are you sure she could be your assistant?

Yes, I am.

I have interviewed over 100 people.

And I've decided to

officially hire her as my assistant.

Precisely,

a personal assistant.

It's quite personal

and close.

Nonsense.

We are in a rush for business dinner.

See you.

GM Cheng.

I...

Can I really be your assistant?

GM Cheng？

You are so annoying.

Drive me home.

I did it.

I don't agree.

I even hate to let you work at reception.

But what did you do?

A babysitter to whom is from a wealthy family.

It's not the babysitter.

It is called personal assistant.

To put it mildly, it's special assistant.

Just like Ling Yizhou's Special Assistant Wen

who is always on a top search.

But he is not like you.

His boss is Ling Yizhou.

Look at you.

You go move in your boss's house,

and do laundry and cooking for him.

There is no difference of being a maid, you know?

You are both single.

What if he wants to flirt with you?

Look at you.

What would you do?

Wait.

Look.

It's my first time to see

the title of the card is receptionist.

Look carefully.

So funny.

Yu Meiling.

There you go.

You met a boss who is so rich and outstanding.

It I think it right,

your GM Cheng

is the founder's son of Meicheng group.

He came back from abroad two years ago.

You're right.

He's only 23 years old.

He looks like a star,

served by many beautiful people.

Whatever his sexuality is.

Do you really think I am his taste?

Don't say that.

For me,

you are actually a beauty.

But indeed,

your boss may not

like a has-been like you.

I think

your boss is a low-key man.

Why would he be a GM in this small company

rather than take care of his family business?

Zhou Quan.

Let's just leave their gossip.

I understand

you are worried about me,

but I can't

rely on you forever.

You know how hard to find a good job.

He pays me very well.

I can't find a better job for now,

right?

All I want is to be independent,

so that

I can take my son back.

Alright. Alright.

But you need to promise me

if you feel wronged,

just come to me.

Here is so empty.

It's not like a home.

GM Cheng has a bit concern for nearness.

His room must be sanitized every day.

He doesn't like sanitizer at all.

So what you can use is a spray mixed with rose oil

to disguise the smell of the sanitizer.

No sundries are allowed on the table.

No creatures are allowed in this house.

What about the plants?

No.

There is nothing special at his breakfast.

The diary products he has must be imported

from Otago pasture of South New Zealand,

and milk must be skimmed.

He goes to company by 10 a.m. everyday.

You should get up by 7 a.m.,

prepare his breakfast by 8 a.m.,

and go to work by 9 a.m..

Did you record everything I just said?

All of his coats must be dry-cleaned.

All of his underwear must be washed by

specialized washer and sanitized by dryer.

And laundry detergent and conditioner brands.

Do not mix them up.

Please buy same kinds without flavor if ran out.

He doesn't like strong flavor.

Here is the utility room.

For god's sake.

What are these?

Does the boss

has any special hobby like this?

That is what we left for party last time.

Easy.

Our boss's aesthetic is normal.

You'll be fine.

You'd better not turn up anytime in this place.

He will call you when he needs you.

Here is a tip.

Do not walk before him.

Got it.

Finally, it is very important

to turn on the lights til morning

in every area of this house.

The boss likes it.

You need to check the backup power anytime.

In case of unexpected power outages.

Doesn't the rich worry about waste of resources?

If they do so.

So noisy.

That's easy.

Take-out food.

I--I am sorry.

GM Cheng.

Sorry.

I haven't told her how to personalize your coffee.

I'm going to change another one for you.

Get out.

Surprise me.

How does she know the flavor I like?

Xunxun.

Did Assistant Wang give you the tips?

I thought it was you.

You must be joking me.

I won't do that.

What tips?

The danger of making wrong coffee.

You were the first one to make his coffee

who wasn't scolded by our boss.

Really?

Yes.

Come in.

Five

Four

Three

Two

Boss

Do you want anything?

Nothing.

Yes.

Here.

Go and make three copies of this document for me,

both sides needed.

Then one of these should be sent to head office.

Please take all of my invoices

to the flow of OA for reimbursement.

And prepare a wedding gift

to Boss Ling.

Finally,

please take back my dry-cleaning suits.

Thank you.

Xunxun.

-I am leaving now. -Okay.

-See you tomorrow. - See you.

Bye bye.

I 've got a instinct.

I think

Xunxun

can take care of our boss very well.

You all done?

You start to get lazy.

Manager Cheng.

I've done all my work.

You can ask Assistant Wang here.

You sure she has no any working experience?

That is what she wrote in her resume.

So I have no excuse to let her go then.

Boss.

You are looking for an assistant.

If she can handle this job,

then why not?

I don't like her.

She is not attractive.

But Bao Xiaojing is.

What about inviting her as your assistant?

Forget about it.

The job requires

24/7 standby.

You don't have kids, right?

That is so weird of this commitment contract.

As this job is quite special.

So do I have to sign it?

Think about it.

I am sorry.

I will take you back as soon as possible, my son.

I didn't expect that

I can have lunch with you today.

Does the personal assistant like you

need to accompany him during his lunch?

He has got two-hour break

without disturbance everyday.

So he's got a nap time at his age.

Go go go.

Oh yes.

Oh.

How's our party tonight?

You're right, I will call Wang Dong to prepare.

Hope you enjoy.

You'd better get back

to prepare the party tonight.

I gotta go now.

What is it?

My boss is going to hold a party tonight,

I have to go back for preparation.

Bye bye.

Take your time.

Who is he?

Hello everybody.

He is R&D director of our company, called Michael.

He's famous in fashion and live-stream fields.

Is he a guy?

I don't see any attractive servers tonight.

Where are those sexy ones that I saw last time?

So you intend to

hold a village woman cosplay tonight.

Young lady,

why did you glare at me?

I am not happy now.

I'm sorry, sir.

What did you just call me?

You called me sir.

No.

I am Michael.

Cheng Li.

Your waitress is so rude.

She is not the waitress.

She is my assistant.

So she is your personal assistant

with 24/7 standby.

Yes.

I am so jealous of you.

So she would always do whatever you want, right?

What are you thinking?

So Michael asked me to wear this.

What did boss say then?

He said nothing.

But if you don't want to,

he would feel a bit shamed.

Michael bets with him.

I gotta go now.

A scholar prefers death to humiliation.

I am done.

Mommy.

I miss you.

When would you take me?

Let's go to the amusement park again.

Mommy,

I've finished my homework.

When would you call me?

Mommy.

I can't sleep.

I want your bed story.

I want to draw with you.

I want to go to bed with you.

Ling Xunxun.

Do you still want to take your son back?

It's too early to give up now.

Are you too easy to be freezed out?

She really did.

Don't you have your self-respect?

Don't you have your bottom line?

I won't give up.

It's quite interesting.

Boss still has got a meeting tomorrow morning,

I am going to get prepared.

Please hurry to clean it up.

Okay.

At the moment, I am like...

watched a ridiculous movie.

When the crowd was gone,

I found out there was a bonus scene.

It surprisingly told me that

the crown who I disliked

was me.

Cheng Li.

You bastard.

Ling Xunxun.

I can't be late for today's meeting.

GM Cheng.

I called a car for you.

The drive will be here in five minutes.

I am going to buy you an umbrella.

Wait.

Come back.

The car is here, GM Cheng.

Here you are.

Please hurry up. I am in a rush.

Please have a look at this.

Okay.

Where is Ling Xunxun?

She sent the car for repairing.

For the whole morning?

She also went to the hospital.

We are gonna have dinner with Boss Wang tonight.

What kinds of gift should we prepare?

Which hospital?

Are you Zhou Quan who just answered the phone?

So you are GM Cheng?

Go and pay her fees.

Yes, you have to do this.

I don't what is wrong with her.

She spares no effort to be your assistant.

I don't even know

what she owes you in her previous life,

so that she can pay you back this life.

You are away too far.

Do you know how much effort

she has spent on this job?

Xiaojing.

Could you please give me

the number of female housekeeper?

A femal housekeeper?

I thought housekeepers would be all females.

She managed to

find your former housekeeper who is ill now,

so she can know your freaky habits in your life.

Like some cheap instant coffee

with sugar from the South Africa,

milk from New Zealand,

or mineral water from the Alps.

All of these are so tricky.

She hasn't worked for seven years.

She didn't even know how to use public devices.

She has to serve you until you sleep,

and then drags me to her office

to give her step-by-step tutorial

on those devices.

She has to get up at seven in the morning

to wake you up, cook for you, and drive you to work.

Did you know

she hasn't slept over 3 hours

for a couple of days.

Indeed, she cherishes her job.

To make you satisfied,

she feel so worried

if she can't be your good assistant.

Then she may lose her job.

Yeah.

She hasn't worked for seven years

without any working experience,

and she can't find a better job.

But there is no need for her

to do her work like this.

Lady.

Shut up.

I haven't finished yet.

If you think she is not good enough,

you can get her fired.

But you shouldn't keep her in a bad way

by humiliating or torturing her.

She is a female, after all.

If you could give her a fair chance

to prove herself,

does it not good?

Can you find me a hour-paid worker now?

Cheng Li.

You bastard.

Forget about it.

Say something.

What are you looking at?

You must answer my question today.

Ms. Zhou.

You didn't even give a chance to me.

First,

I apologize for

the sickness of my assistant because of work.

I'll be responsible for all of her medical bills.

And I will offer her a one-week leave

to get well soon.

I will let her go to work next week.

That sounds humane.

And

I didn't humiliate or torture her.

What she had done

deserves the high salary she gets.

So you don't need to feel sorry for her.

Additionally,

you may not know your friend.

She was so hot when decided to do this.

What do you mean?

So shame on you.

Get up, Ling Xunxun!

That's quite weird, Ling Xunxun.

I didn't know

you've got a plenty of talents.

You got your permed

with a cosplay uniform that night.

And then you even walked around.

How could you?

I...

I felt shamed

when I saw that video.

What...what did you do?

What were you thinking at that time?

Say something.
