(Adapted from Chun Feng Yi Du's "Accidentally Picked Up a CEO")

(Episode 6)

Recently,

some unfortunate things have indeed happened...

within Lingshi Group.

Thank you for your trust in me.

I will definitely take on the responsibility as CEO...

and lead Lingshi Group towards the future.

I don't approve.

It really is Ling Yue.

It's Ling Yue.

Dad, Ling Yue is alive.

Ling Yue.

You're finally back.

We missed you so much, didn't we?

Dad.

How's your leg?

It's fine.

The doctor said I just needed to rest.

Just now,

did you say you disagree?

That's right.

Everyone is okay with that.

But you disagreed on your own. It's no use.

Right, my dear brother?

I have more than enough people to support me.

It's no use even if you don't support me.

You can't bring me down.

My little brother...

broke his leg.

He must have had a head injury too.

How absurd.

Tell them.

Why did you disagree?

Because this deal...

will definitely be a loss.

With no return of capital,

it's not just a bad plan.

In the end,

it will also affect the development of the head office.

What nonsense is this?

You're just...

Let him finish!

At a glance,

Luocheng seems like a great piece of land.

It's in the East Asian monsoon region.

In its southeast corner,

there is a heavy metal industrial plant...

that has been built for decades.

On normal days, it's not that big of a deal.

But every winter,

the factory emits a large amount of harmful gas...

which is affected by wind direction and drifts to Luocheng.

What happens...

if we buy this land?

I'm sure all of you know the answer.

If it's true,

the real estate project will be stuck.

- That's right. - That's right.

Ling Fang.

Why does the environmental report...

in your business proposal say that...

there isn't an issue?

Dad.

Don't listen to him.

I've looked into nearby areas within at least 10 miles.

I see no such factory.

We can't listen to everything he says.

There's no proof. He works in e-commerce.

What does he know?

What a coincidence.

I do have proof.

A few years ago,

Mr. Ling considered Luocheng...

when selecting the location of the logistics warehouse.

This environmental report covers not only areas...

within a 10-mile radius, but over hundreds.

Dad, let me explain.

I don't need your explanation!

You're too eager to succeed...

and only seek short-term benefits.

You're not at all...

a forward-looker.

What makes you think...

you're qualified to be the CEO?

Shareholders, I'm sorry...

for wasting your time.

In regards to Ling Fang's appointment...

as the CEO of Lingshi Group,

I'm voting against it.

Dad, what are you talking about?

I'm against it too.

I'm against it too.

I'm against it too.

I'm against it too.

I'm against it.

I'm against it.

I'm against it.

I'm against it too.

I'm against it too.

I'm against it too.

Okay.

The votes are sustained.

The meeting has been adjourned.

Luckily, Ling Yue made it back in time.

Otherwise, the loss would be unpredictable.

Yes, it's a good thing that it was discovered early.

That's so inappropriate.

You did it on purpose.

You purposely come back at this very moment...

to embarrass me.

That's true.

Why do you always have to ruin my plans?

That's enough!

Do you need me to get the best doctor...

to treat your leg?

No, that's fine.

Knock it off.

Who knows what weird scheme are you cooking up now?

It's you who have been up to no good, Ling Fang.

I happen to have a question for you.

Why are you always trying to get rid of me?

This was found on the dashcam of another car owner.

How do you explain this?

- How do you explain this? - Dad.

It has been edited.

Bring that car owner here if you can!

Shut up!

As for this,

I'll make it up to you.

Where have you been all this time?

Why wasn't there any news?

I had things to do.

What was it...

that was more important than the company?

Dad.

Let's not pursue this matter any further.

What matters most is that Ling Yue is back safely.

Since Ling Yue is back,

we should let him resume his position as the CEO...

Shut up, you little brat!

Let the position...

be vacant for now.

Ling Yue.

In the meantime,

you need to get a good rest.

Whatever you say.

Ling Fang.

You have been playing tricks...

with those old men behind my back.

Do you think I don't know?

So in the meantime,

you'd better behave.

You're all on your own.

You think you won.

There is no point cooking my goose.

We're both vice presidents now.

That makes us equal.

There's no telling who will win.

Ling Fang.

You're no match for me.

Are you looking down on me?

I don't care who the heir is.

I just don't want to be under your thumb.

So do you want me to be under yours?

Ling Fang.

You don't give a darn about the position.

- Ling Fang. - How absurd!

- Come here! - Ling Fang, we're a family.

I'm sure there has been a misunderstanding.

Calm down.

Calm down.

You little brat.

Ling Yue.

So you're making me take the fall for this.

You should know better...

if that's really the case.

We'll see who's the one lying.

Are you crippled for real?

So you really can't stand up?

What's the matter?

Don't you believe me?

That girl's name is Gu An Xin, right?

Don't look at me like that.

She piques my interest all of a sudden.

Don't you mess with her.

You seem to care a lot about her.

It's none of your business.

How is it not?

Have you forgotten?

Growing up, I've always wanted...

to take away everything that you love.

Or ruin her.

Don't you dare.

Why wouldn't I?

Unless you never see her again.

Otherwise, I'll find her for sure.

Ling Yue, are you all right?

I'm fine.

Ai Li.

Did you borrow my car the other day...

because you already knew...

that my dashcam...

had a video of Ling Fang...

tampering with Ling Yue's car?

On the day of the accident,

we did not see Mr. Ling Fang...

in the parking lot surveillance footage.

But it just so happened that your car was there.

So I thought...

that this could be a lead.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

I didn't even know that there was such a thing in my car.

That was my order.

It has nothing to do with you.

I just didn't want to get you dragged into this.

Ling Yue.

We're all siblings.

Ling Fang just lost his way.

He wouldn't want to harm you.

Don't worry.

I'll take care of it.

(Basement Level 1)

Mr. Ling.

How's your leg?

I didn't expect him to do it for real.

Well, I'll send you to An Xin's place now.

We can't go back there.

Ling Fang is the kind...

who will be focused on revenge once he finds a lead.

An Xin wouldn't be safe anymore...

if we were to go back to her place...

since you've been followed now.

I'm sorry.

It was my negligence.

Protect An Xin.

Don't let Ling Fang get wind of her...

until this is all over.

Got it.

I'm sorry.

So what is your friend's name?

Next time, think of a name first before coming.

Something came up.

When I'm done dealing with it,

I'll come back to find you.

Xiao Ba.

Hello. Is this Ms. Gu An Xin?

Congratulations on winning the lottery.

The prize is a silky-smooth underwear set...

worth 288 yuan.

Please provide your measurements and address.

I don't like wearing underwear.

But my best friend, You You, loves it.

You should send it to her.

Her bust size...

is 36A.

No. Mine is 36D.

Gu An Xin, you ruined my reputation.

I'm not in the mood for this.

I'll ask Xiao Ba to deal with you.

Where is he?

Xiao Ba, say something!

Don't hide in the corner and not say a word.

- I know you're there. - He...

Hello?

I didn't hear anything.

What's the use of being so big and tall?

You're afraid of cockroaches.

Why were you staring at me?

It's nothing.

Why don't I give it to you then?

("Zootopia")

From now on, I'll do this kind of physical work for you.

Knock it off! Give it to me!

What are you trying to do...

by leaning so close to me?

Okay.

Then...

It's a deal.

Let's seal the promise.

An Xin,

are you still there?

Is the signal bad?

He's gone.

(Something came up.)

(When I'm done dealing with it, I'll come back to find you.)

Mr. Ling, the meeting with Mr. Chen is at 10am.

Okay.

Set it up.

(Suda Express)

An Xin.

You're still here.

You should go.

The company's new policy...

does not allow employees to work overtime.

I'm almost done.

Take the company's shuttle bus.

The last bus is before 10pm.

Since when is the company so generous?

I don't know either.

It's like they have completely changed.

I'll get going.

- Bye. - Bye.

An Xin.

Why are you here?

I came out for a walk.

You go for a walk when you're limping?

Let's go home.

As you have ordered,

we have strengthened the security over there.

Mr. Ling.

I'm afraid...

that An Xin might blame you for it.

At least, she won't get dragged into this.

Xin Er, look over there.

Who is that?

I heard that Ling Yue barely escaped death...

and he is already buried in work.

What a fighter.

I also heard that he's crippled now.

Let's not talk about that.

Xin Er.

How is your company doing?

How much does Mr. Gu plan to invest?

She is his daughter.

She can have as much as she wants.

Right?

Angela.

Drop me off at the intersection in front of you.

What's wrong?

I might be coming down with a cold.

I don't feel so well.

I don't feel like drinking today.

It's not safe this late at night.

It's okay.

My driver will pick me up soon.

Have fun, you two.

Text me when you get home.

- Bye. - Bye.

I wonder if I have the honor...

to be the driver for this fairy?

What a coincidence.

Yes and no.

At first, I planned to have a chance encounter.

(Gu Xin Er)

So?

Are you getting in?

Yes.

You're awake.

Why did you bring me here?

Whenever I was feeling down...

or if something was bugging me and I couldn't ease my mind,

I would come here to get some fresh air.

Then I would feel better.

You can try it too.

Do I look like I'm in a bad mood?

Do you think you look like you're in a good mood?

I'm not that ugly.

You're just prettier when you smile.

Thank you.

It's so comforting.

Take my advice and you won't go wrong.

You always appear as a carefree and optimistic person.

Do you have any worries too?

It's just a facade.

Think about it.

I have two older brothers and they're always fighting.

How can I be carefree?

I heard that...

Ling Yue is back.

The news about Ling Yue is all over the Internet.

The media hasn't been able to get a picture of him.

But everyone says...

that his leg...

That he has a crippled leg?

Don't listen to them.

Indeed, my brother's leg is injured.

But he's still recovering.

He'll get better.

Xin Er.

Don't worry.

Ling Yue always pulls through.

It will be the same this time.

Is he hurt?

Is it bad?

I'm not sure myself.

After Ling Yue came back, he locked himself in his room.

He doesn't talk to anyone...

and only devotes himself to work.

I think this incident...

is quite a huge blow to him.

He's a proud man.

But he's in this state now.

But I believe...

that he'll get better.

He is Ling Yue.

Nothing can defeat him.

Xin Er.

Do you still care a lot for Ling Yue?

We've been together for so long.

How can I forget just like that?

(Suda Express)

Okay. I'll put it at the collection counter for you.

You're welcome.

Thank you for calling us.

If you have the time, please comment on my service.

Okay.

Look.

He's so handsome.

(Storage Area No. 3)

Thank you.

An Sheng?

I'm sorry.

I came late.

What is so charming about Gu An Xin?

That's right.

The pond is huge.

Why does she always get the good catch?

Perhaps that is her destiny.

We're all just sour grapes.

An Sheng.

Why are you back all of a sudden?

I should've come earlier.

Why didn't you tell me the things that you've been through?

What is it?

How long will you keep the news that you dropped out from me?

How did you know?

We've been having video calls so many times...

and we've been emailing each other.

You kept telling me that everything was okay.

Look at you.

It breaks my heart.

I'm fine, An Sheng.

Actually, I'm doing great now.

Don't worry.

Give me your hand.

Look me in the eye.

Don't you think I know you?

You've been like this since you were a kid.

No matter the wrongs you have endured...

or the pain you've been through,

you always keep things to yourself.

You won't tell others about it...

and you're afraid of causing trouble for others.

I'm not just anyone.

I'm your brother.

Your brother is back now.

From now on, you don't have to suffer anymore.

You don't have to act tough in front of me...

or pretend to be thoughtful.

All right?

This ice cream is giving me a toothache.

All right.

Don't cry anymore.

I'm back.

From now on,

I won't let anyone else give you a hard time.

By the way, An Sheng,

I only took a half-an-hour leave just now.

I think I'll have to go now.

Okay, I'll send you off.

There's still time.

You insisted on having ice cream.

- You caught a cold now, right? - It's fine.

Your sister is tough like a King Kong.

She's not afraid of anything.

Nonsense.

Look at you.

You look like a little penguin.

If only I had been by your side,

you wouldn't have to go through so much.

You've always been there for me.

You're always by my side.

I dreamed that there was a strange lady...

In my room.

Don't be scared. I'm here.

What is this?

It's called Nightmare Filter Bracelet.

Put it on...

and it'll eat away your nightmares.

Thank you, An Sheng.

Okay. Come on.

Let's go.

(Suda Express)

Don't work here anymore.

Go and work at the comic company you told me about.

Haven't you always liked drawing?

Just like...

Madam Jin.

What if my drawing is bad...

and I can't support myself?

I'll support you.

But I eat a lot.

When the time comes, don't complain that I eat a lot.

Look at you.

You have clearly lost weight.

You should eat more.

The chubbier, the better.

Got it?

An Sheng.

Don't you know that if you're too fat,

you'll be eaten?

You've always been strong.

I came...

to let you know...

that your brother is back.

Go on.

Go on.

Hello?

Mom.

I'm on my way back now.

Why are you here?

He was drinking at my place yesterday.

He doesn't feel safe to have other people drive him.

So I sent him home.

When time permits,

I have to meet this An Xin.

I wonder what kind of woman she is,

who is capable of melting his stone-cold heart.

So is this girl...

the heroine of the story?

She's quite pretty.

The guy next to her...

is quite cute.

Is he her new boyfriend?

He left just like that.

If I were her,

I would find someone new too.

What makes you think he is cute?

He looks pretty outgoing.

He's better than some stones.

Girls are into this type of person.

Why are you still here?

Are you waiting for me to invite you to lunch?

I'll be leaving soon.

If not, you might slip poison into my food.

Run a background check on him.

Okay, I'm on it.

(Comic-Con Recruitment)

"Comic-Con Recruitment."

"Send your work to our mailbox..."

"and you'll stand a chance..."

"to get your work shown at the comic-con..."

"and have more people discover your talent."

Chang An has to go.

Quickly submit your work.

That's right.

The Great Goddess Chang An should participate in it.

We will support you.

(Chang An has to go. Quickly submit your work.)

(Xi Bei Wang Chang An's artwork)

Can I do it?

(Send)

(Your email has been sent.)

Does it still hurt here?

I'm asking you. Does your leg still hurt?

Can you show some respect to this doctor in front of you?

Tell me. Does your leg still hurt?

"Chang An has to go."

When did you become so soft?

You even called yourself Yuan Yuan.

Why not Fang Fang or Bian Bian?

Give it back.

I'm not interested anyway.

Who is Chang An?

Mr. Ling's girl.

From the looks of it,

there is plenty of interesting stuff in there.

Silly girl.

Don't you know how to dodge that?

Here, wipe it off.

Don't catch a cold.

Thank you.

Take this umbrella.

How do I return it to you?

It's okay. Here comes my ride.

Bye!

(Ning'an Public Transport Group)

Mr. Ling.

I've made the arrangement for the comic-con.

Okay.

Let's go.

Later, look at her artwork.

Do you get it?

- You know what to say, right? - Got it.

- Got it. - Don't worry.

This way, please.

Hello.

Have a seat.

Okay, thank you.

Gosh. It was pouring, right?

You're all wet.

- Here. Wipe it dry. - Thank you.

Drink some hot water.

Don't catch a cold.

- Okay. - Drink more.

What is going on?

Gu An Xin.

Did you bring your artwork?

Yes.

(Zhaoshi Culture)

Sorry, I forgot to bring it.

It's okay.

Tell us what you've worked on.

That's right.

There is a serialized webtoon.

"The Big Bad Wolf and the Little Lamb".

And...

That's great!

I've seen your work before.

It was great. Really.

You can definitely publish it.

- Really? - Yes!

Is it that good?

What nonsense is this?

That's just a little too much.

Knock it off.

An Xin.

You're hired.

Am I hired?

Just like that?

Is there no 2nd or 3rd interview?

No.

It's an exceptional case.

Prepare yourself. Come to work tomorrow.

I'm not ready to come to work tomorrow.

I'm sorry.

Well, what are your requests?

It's okay. Just tell us.

No. I have no request.

To be honest,

I haven't quit my current job.

I have to hand over some previous work,

so I can't come to work tomorrow.

It's okay.

I know that this good news comes as a surprise.

It's hard to believe.

I get it.

This is Zhaoshi Culture after all.

- That's right. - That's right.

- That's right. - Well...

You can think about it.

Feel free to contact me once you've made up your mind.

- Let me introduce myself. - Mr. Zhao Lei.

Yes, I'm Zhao Lei.

Me too. I'm Wang Li.

- And I'm Chen Hong. - Hello.

Hello, Chen Hong.

Well, I'll get going then.

Okay.

- Sure. - Okay.

Why don't I walk you out?

Go on.

- No, that's okay. - We'll walk you out.

You don't have to.

- Go on. - No, it's a must. Come on.

- Walk her out. - I'll walk you out.

There's no need.

- Take care. - Thank you.

This way.

- Ma'am. - My son.

- Mom. - You're finally back.

Come here.

Let me take a look at you.

Why did you lose so much weight?

Is the food abroad not to your taste?

No.

Come here.

Try the food that I made for you.

It's your favorite.

Here. Have a seat.

This is...

I haven't been back in years.

Your cooking skills have improved so much.

Enjoy.

Did you order from outside just to cheer me up?

You're such a sweet talker.

That is...

the only good thing about you.

Dad.

Your mom has been looking forward to your return.

But the first thing you did when you came back...

was not to see her.

Do you think I don't know that?

You keep hanging out with an outsider.

Dad.

An Xin...

isn't an outsider.

She is not my daughter.

Doesn't that make her an outsider?

Dad.

Look.

I'm not your biological son either.

But you still love me.

What kind of nonsense is that?

That's not the same.

Yuan Chao.

Is the conference call over?

It just gives me a headache.

Let me give you a massage.

You're just tired.

Yuan Chao.

Don't blame him.

He grew up with An Xin.

Of course they're close.

That's why I'm worried that she'll egg him on.

Dad.

I think there's more to her than meets the eye.

An Xin has been so kind since she was a kid.

How could she possibly hurt others?

Do you think you know her well?

Look at her.

She's just like her mom!

I won't be surprised...

if she does anything bad!

That's enough. Stop fighting.

An Sheng just got home.

Besides,

An Xin is a member of the Gu family.

You promised Lu Wan...

to take good care of her.

Indeed,

she was too willful.

But...

I believe she has learned from her mistakes.

Yuan Chao.

Your birthday is in a few days.

Why don't we invite her home for a reunion?

I'll let you take care of it.

Don't worry.

An Sheng, help yourself.

- Here. - Okay. Thank you, Mom.
