Original subtitles

What's the big deal

that made you come to discuss with me

all serious？.

Just to be clear,

I'm not killing people for you.

But if you want to look into.

Jin's private savings,

you can count on me.

You don't deserve my begging.

Hey, Qiao,

bring that guy to my office.

Bring him to my office.

Okay.

Qin Shi, I don't think I need to

introduce you, right?

Counselor Qin,

we meet again!

Yes.

Nice to see you again, Mr. Wang.

From now on,

Mr. Wang will be with Honesty & Prudence

to survey the project.

You can talk to Qiao

about problems regarding administration and finance.

As for company operation

and business,

talk to Counselor Qin.

I should thank the two of you in advance.

That's alright.

It's our pleasure.

I looked at your project plan.

It's very tempting.

I talked with Mr. Hu overnight

and decided to check it out in person.

Our company has the policy

of doing some field investigation

for the projects we are investing in.

But please don't worry.

I'm not here

to monitor anyone

or dig anything up.

I will assess

your operation

most fairly and objectively.

Meanwhile,

I will try to make myself

as invisible as possible.

Mr. Wang,

you are being too kind.

Then take

the reception room as your office.

Mr. Wang, Honesty & Prudence

will work with you

with the greatest sincerity and transparency.

People don't come here often.

And it's quiet.

We will send in

the stuff you need right away.

Please just tell us

if you need anything.

Okay.

This is my personal business card.

It has my cellphone number there.

Tell me

if you need anything.

Counselor Qin.

Yes, Mr. Wang.

Let's not be so formal.

Don't keep calling me Mr. Wang.

Call me Jiesen.

How's James?

Is he okay?

He's fine. Thank you for asking.

He left in a hurry the other day.

I didn't even get a chance

to talk with him.

Maybe we can

have dinner together

and catch up.

Well, he's got gastroenteritis.

So we might need for a while to have that dinner.

Dinner doesn't matter.

What's important is the catch-up.

I heard from Ms. Tang

that he's staying at home

with the kid instead of working right now.

It's working hours.

Maybe we shouldn't keep talking about personal stuff.

I'm sorry.

Counselor Qin,

if you have the time right now,

I'd like to

ask you a few things about your business.

Mr. Wang, please tell me.

Come on.

Here is the thing.

I've checked some information

about your firm.

And I realized that your standard

regarding selecting cases

is different from

all the other firms.

So, I'm wondering

that how

do you

choose your cases.

Money!

Counselor Qin,

I thought your answer would be

justice.

You are not

kidding with me, right?

Well, as fancy as the title

of counselor sounds like

from time to time,

and people may think that it's linked

with fairness and justice.

But in fact,

we are just a group

of professionals

who provide legal services.

We charge service fees by the hour,

and provide professional legal knowledge

and aids that match the fee.

We try our best

to help our clients defend their rights.

This is what a law firm does.

Counselor Qin, is it appropriate

to describe your law firm in such a tacky way?

It's okay to say that to you.

So you are saying that you think

I'm a tacky person?

You are a businessman.

It's only right to discuss money

with a businessman.

I don't think I should be talking to you

about ambition and dreams, right?

How much are you earning

from He Dongna?

Do you want the truth?

Of course!

It's usually not easy

to work on a celebrity's case.

The profit in that case

is not that big.

That's why Honesty & Prudence

is always discreet

about celebrities' cases.

But celebrities' cases

can draw a lot of attention.

And that will make your firm

more famous.

Interest comes after fame.

Mr. Jin used to say

that too much fame

is not a good thing in our line of work.

Why is that?

Because we are upholding fairness,

not justice.

Our client

could be good

or bad.

They can be perpetrators

or victims.

What we need to do is to maintain

their basic human rights.

But for some people

who don't possess

basic legal knowledge,

it could be hard for them to accept that.

Then I hope that

you can see me

as someone beyond those people from now on.

What the hell?

Counselor Qin!

Mr. Wang. Hi, what's going on?

Nothing.

You were in a hurry.

I didn't get to ask you

if you have time

for lunch tomorrow.

I'm really busy. I can't.

People got to eat.

Counselors are also people.

Please don't

be so formal with me.

I think the impression of a company

starts with

the impression of the staff.

Now I really want

to know you better.

Then let's bring everyone along!

Let's all get to know each other!

That won't be necessary.

I want to have lunch with you alone.

That's really not okay.

Well...

James might get jealous.

I can't explain it to him when I get home.

You two are really

a good match.

It surprises me that

a funny lady like you

would take.

James' words

like golden rules.

Okay.

Think about it.

I can talk to.

Ms. Tang and ask for her approval

to let the two of us

dine alone

if I have to.

I don't think James

would disagree in that case.

See you around.

Hello, Counselor Li,

this is Yang Hua.

I've got the file

and I want to meet Mr. Qiu

before I come to any decisions.

Here we are again.

Life is unpredictable.

I was talking about helping you just a couple of days ago,

and now you are helping me.

I heard from Counselor Li

that you are married

and your wife is also an attorney.

Good for you.

I'm happy for you.

I just have two questions for you.

Why did you ask me

to invest heavily in Haibo Bio-Tech?

It's like a lifetime ago.

Why are you still...

Did you profit from that?

Yang Hua,

I, Qiu Jianxiang,

have never touched even a penny

that was not supposed to be mine.

If that's not true,

then may heaven lay thunder on me.

If that's all,

then I need to leave now.

Where are you going? I can take you.

It's okay.

What about the thing that you promised me?

I just promised you to meet with him.

That's all.

You...

Come out for a second.

I need to talk to you.

Qin Shi,

how dare you?

Is the word

“boundary”

in your dictionary at all?

You lied about your marriage,

and you lied about

your husband's background.

You made Honesty & Prudence

took advice from

that husband of yours who's stayed at home for 4 years.

That's impressive!

Are you laughing right now?

You can still laugh?

Aren't you worried

that I will tell Tang Yihui

about your background?

Aren't you worried

that I will ask Yang Hua to stop helping you?

That's your words.

What did I say?

You said it.

If I keep your background a secret,

you will let Yang Hua help me.

Not only reading the files,

but also being my expert witness.

You said all of that.

When did I say that?

You just said it.

I heard it with my both ears.

I am clever enough to get what you are really saying.

You can't take it back.

Mammon, Fairy.

Daddy understands what Grandpa said.

But Daddy is

deeply conflicted.

Now, I need you

to help me make a choice,

okay?

Okay.

Mammon, you first.

Mammon, please make your choice.

This means to reject.

And this means to help.

Make your choice.

It's time to choose.

Come on, pick one!

Mammon, are you sure?

This is just one

and here's a pile. The pile is here.

And you chose that one.

You must have had enough.

I need to replace you.

Let's try Fairy.

That doesn't count!

Fairy, can you make

the choice?

Here.

This means to reject. And this means to help.

Pick one.

You are back!

Are you hungry? I can make you some food.

It's okay.

It has been a long day. I'm exhausted.

Your feet must hurt a lot

after spending a whole day in those high heels.

Soak your feet in it.

It helps to relieve stress

and boost blood circulation.

I added Ay Tsao

and saffron inside.

It's good for your health.

How can you be so sweet?

It's okay.

I just met.

Li Dai.

So, you've met Qiu Jianxiang.

How was it?

I just asked a few questions.

Although

it didn't make that much of a difference.

Let's change the subject.

How about your day?

I met

an acquaintance of yours.

Wang Jiesen.

He was inspecting the company

for Hu Ping.

I was already busy enough,

and I had to serve him as well.

What happened?

I'm thinking

that if I am the same person I used to be,

I might be able to help you more.

Come here.

You

have already helped me enough.

If you did

all my work,

what should I do?

If I am the person I used to be,

will you like me more?

I can't answer

that question.

Because I

don't know the person

you used to be.

Or what a golden boy you were.

Or how glamourous you were.

I just know that

you are who you are.

You are the same

all the time.

No matter how much you've been through,

you are still the Yang Hua who doesn't forget

where he came from and who's kind.

And that's the guy

that I like.

Oh, right.

Does Wang Jiesen

have any weaknesses?

Him?

If he let anyone spot his weakness,

he wouldn't have become who he is now.

He's really scheming.

Don't get too close to him.

But we are in the same company!

I can't avoid him all the time.

Where can I hide?

And we have to maintain

the relationship with Hu Ping.

Besides,

I'm not the kind of person who would hide.

If he has bullied you before,

I won't let him get off with it.

Maybe I can find his weak spot

and strike him down.

We can't let you suffer

for nothing.

You are kind

and you can forgive.

I can't. I have to get revenge.

He bullied my people.

I will not make this easy for him.

Why are you so kind to me?

Because you are kind to me.

This is mutual.

You must have spent a lot on this.

Don't waste all the water.

Let's do it together.

Come on!

I'll give you half the space.

You have really big feet.

You stepped on me!

Where are you going? I can give you a ride.

Can you drive with your hand like that?

Come.

Get inside.

Do you know where I'm going?

Yeah. Look for the truth.

Qin...

Director Qiao!

Wait, you...

Where is Qin Shi?

Counselor Qin needs to go to court.

She has a trial this afternoon.

Before she left, she told me

that I can answer

whatever questions that you may have.

And if I can't answer them,

I can write them down in my notebook

and she will answer them when she gets back.

What do you think?

Sure.

Sit down, please.

The truth of a case

is not just the criterion of judging the responsibility,

and it's also related to

morality.

We can't tolerate any falsification.

If our image collapses,

it will cost our firm

a lot in terms of reputation.

That's what you think, right?

Don't ask me

why I know that.

There is no wall that's thick enough in Honesty & Prudence.

I am not here

to steal your case.

I wouldn't step in.

I just think that...

You hurt your hand

because of me.

Anyway,

I'm actually a grateful person.

So, let me help you with everything recently

including finding clues,

driving,

and even daily routines.

You can treat me

as your assistant.

You are still not talking, are you?

Who do you trust more

between Yao Yao and He Dongna?

They both have reasons to lie.

But the key is

to find credible

third-party testimony,

recordings, videos,

or other guests at the hotel.

How was it?

Really beautiful.

See you.

Go fighting!

Are you Ms. Qin from Huanlong International?

Please follow me.

The third floor

to the seventh floor of our hotel are guest rooms.

The eighth floor is the administration floor.

The president's suite

is on the west wing of the eighth floor.

There is only one room on the west wing

and you need a special key card

to get in there.

Ms. Qin, please.

Ms. He, come in, please.

Just put my stuff there.

Be careful.

Our hotel has an advantage

in location.

It's close to downtown

and the airport.

The western restaurant of our hotel

is really good.

We got the famous Italian chef

for the western restaurant.

The chef worked in

a Michelin three-star restaurant before.

Ms. Qin, how long is your boss

planning to stay here this time?

For a long time.

A year, at least.

But you are not

our only option.

Because my boss

is actually demanding.

He asked me to find him several hotels

for him to pick from.

Sure.

You have to make comparisons to know which one is better.

Although, our hotel

has professional butlers.

A lot of hotels would say

that they have hotel butlers.

But our butlers are different.

Our butlers

have certificates from

the International Butler Academy.

And our customers

are always satisfied.

Our boss is quite troublesome.

Even I would feel tired.

We are in the service business.

That's actually our job.

Actually, a lot of customers

have their

special habits.

What we want to do

is try our best

to offer the best service.

Hello, Boss.

Yes.

I'm finding you the room.

Excuse me.

Can I have some privacy? It's...

Sure.

Can you see it clearly?

Yes. The view is rather clear.

Yao Yao said that she served He Dongna

as a butler that day.

Right in this suite.

Take a look at the bathroom

where it happened.

Ms. Qin.

Do you need

my further service?

No.

Then this way, please.

I heard that your hotel

threw out a female celebrity before.

Is that true?

Ms. Qin,

I don't know

what you are talking about.

Tianhang Hotel has

a lot of branches.

But I can assure you

that if you choose

our hotel,

the service you will get

is beyond what you've paid for.

This way, please.

How was it?

I asked about it all.

Besides the cameras

in the elevator,

there is the only surveillance

at the end of the hall, out of the president's suite.

It's unlikely that there's surveillance

in that room.

And according to the situation back then,

is it possible that the security and the staff

have anything related?

I've asked about that.

They are not allowed to

make videos or record

when they are serving the customers.

So I don't think there will be any evidence.

I do have witnesses.

I also put a little thought into it

and asked about their working staff at the time.

They are willing to testify for me.

It's hard to find someone

who's willing to speak up for others nowadays.

Roll up here. Okay.

That's great.

Dongna,

when can we meet with

this witness you talked about?

What?

You guys don't trust the people I found?

That's not what I mean.

We are your counselors,

it would be easier for us

to fully prepare ourselves if we know everything.

If it's convenient for you,

I'd like to meet with this witness

as soon as possible.

Because, as far as we know,

there are only a few witnesses

from the hotel on that day.

If this witness is reliable,

we'd like to secure the evidence

and testimony as soon as possible

to avoid any further changes.

Don't worry about that.

That person is

a witness from that day.

His testimony is guaranteed.

Okay.

You've been watching for a while.

What could you see?

Our strategy!

If our charge is about

the hotel's management vulnerability

has caused personal injury...

That's fine.

But from that angle,

we can only charge the hotel.

I'm thinking

if there's another way.

I think the client's target

is Manager Yao.

There should be other witnesses

from that day.

We can try to find another way.

See if anyone else would talk.

I can do that myself.

They all belong to the hotel staff.

Will they speak the truth?

I'm not sure.

You have to try to know.

Maybe there's a chance.

I'll think about other ways.

I'll look for more evidence

and ask around.

No need. I have a man on that.

You mean Gang?

I've seen

what he can do.

Better leave this to me.

More people might find more evidence.

Don't eat like you are starving,

okay?

Like you were pawing food.

Can you be a little classier?

I am pawing for food.

And you are

eating at the same table as me.

What does that make you?

How good can you be?

You're back!

Where did you go?

I've been waiting for you the whole afternoon.

What happened to your hand?

I burned myself when I was dining with a friend.

What kind of friend

got you burned like that?

Girlfriend, right?

Was it Fei,

or Counselor Qin?

I can understand now.

When it comes to girlfriends,

more doesn't mean

better treatment.

They can only show up

in singular forms.

If they show up in even-number...

What's with the singular and even?

Open it up.

Just say what you want.

Counselor Qin is your ex-girlfriend, right?

You are pretending

that you didn't hear me, are you?

Get lost!

I said, get lost!

Okay!

I'm leaving!

Don't touch the water. That...

What do you want to say?

Do you know Fei

is asking me to look into Counselor Qin's husband?

What is this?

I don't even know the name of his company,

where should I get started?

Okay. I'll go to someone else.

No!

I'm not saying that I can't do this.

It's just going to cost me some effort.

I will get you the results.

What's this?

Resume!

Yang Hua's resume from... four years ago.

Four years ago?

Why are you giving me this?

He's still using it this year.

Look,

there's only one career experience on it.

Then what has he been doing

all these years?

It's on the resume.

Overseas elite financier.

Those are faked. They are lies.

I've looked into it.

He's the old generation of

unemployed young people.

Are you sure?

Yes. I'm pretty sure.

Don't you have friends

at the customs？.

If you don't believe me,

ask them to check

his entry and exit records,

and you'll know.

Keep your mouth shut this time.

Especially to Fei.

Then if Fei asks me,

what should I say?

Could such a smart person like you not know that?

Okay!

I don't know anything.

If she asks, I'll say I know nothing.

You are the clean one after all.

I'm back.

You haven't had anything yet, right?

Yeah.

That's great!

Wait for me for a second.

What are you doing?

Don't get close.

Just wait for me.

I'll cook you something good today.

Just wait for a while.

Go sit over there

to play games or watch TV.

Suit yourself

and do not disturb me.

You are cooking?

You don't trust me?

What's with that face?

I made a mistake the last time.

I'm fully prepared

this time.

Now, please!

Are you surprised?

I went to the owner

of that spicy hot pot

and asked for this recipe.

I noticed that

you like it the last time.

So I made you

exactly the same thing.

With less oil and chili.

The soup was made with bones.

I know you don't like meat.

So I used vegan materials.

Look,

there are mushrooms, tofu,

and kelp knots.

And the sauce,

I specially bought it from the restaurant.

Have a taste, see if it tastes the same.

How is it? Is it good?

It's nice!

Is it the same?

Have as much as you like.

This is special for today.

You can't have that every day.

Qin Shi,

I have a question for you.

Just go ahead.

You...

Does your firm need.

Hu Ping's fund urgently?

Indeed!

We need it urgently. Like crazy!

What?

You have a solution?

No.

Then why are you asking that all serious?

If the financing fails,

will it affect your

chance to become a partner?

About that...

I was already

a little awkward

after Tao Junhui stepped in.

If he can tackle

this case of He Dongna,

he would take the most credits.

And I would have even less leverage.

If he can't take down this case,

I don't have to take the fall,

but I will not be able

to use Hu Ping as a resource.

The firm will not be quiet later,

and it's hard to say what the result might be.

Why are you asking about that all of a sudden?

Nothing. I was just asking.

Don't worry.

They are not

suspecting your identity just yet.

We still have enough time.

I'm not worried, why should you?

Eat!

Is it good?

It's nice!

Right?

It's really nice.

Have some more.

Is it too salty?

It's okay.

It's really good.

Do make this for me again.

Li Dai asked you

to be the expert witness in Qiu Jianxiang's case.

Does she know you two have a beef?

Yes.

And she still asked you to do it?

She must have played

the sympathy card.

Something like you are the only one

in this world who can save him.

How poor he is.

He will spend the rest of his life

in prison.

You should bury the hatchet.

That would make you look

really sacred

and noble.

You really do know her.

Of course!

Just say no.

Don't give her any chance.

Besides, Qiu Jianxiang

is just getting what he deserves.

Not this time.

He was wronged.

Really?

Then it's still not your turn to save him.

I'm the best person to do that.

You agreed?

Not yet.

It's okay.

Well,

don't feel pressured.

I will support

whatever decision you make.

And if I say no?

I support you!

You can't work for all these years

because of him.

You've taken such a huge hit.

And when you were desperately

and only could heal yourself,

I didn't see him

come and help you.

Why should you help him now?

It's already decent of you

that you didn't make this worse for him.

It's not wrong for men to avenge.

You are awesome.

And what if I agree?

I support you, too.

It means that you

are generous and forgiving.

You are kind, and you don't hold grouches.

You can forgive people who hurt you before.

You are definitely a noble person.

Anyway,

don't feel pressured

whatever you do.

Just do what you want, and be yourself.

If I keep your background a secret,

you will let Yang Hua help me.

Not only reading the files,

but also being my expert witness.

You said all of that.

I'd like to adjust my statement.

I think sometimes,

we still need to uphold justice

and fight the evil.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Tell me. What happened to you?

Nothing.

Okay, I'll admit it.

I felt threatened a little

when I was

meeting with Li Dai.

But I was sincere

when I said

that you should be brave and be yourself.

But I gave it a second thought.

It's also good for you to testify in court.

You are already tired.

Let me do the dishes.

Okay. I'm going to rest now.

Don't bring the tricks you do

out there back home.

If you want to say something,

be sure where you are standing.

What's wrong with you?

I have finally taken off my guard at home

and be honest

and sincere with you,

how could you say that?

So cold!

Then I'm not doing the dish.

Just focus on your job.

What did you say? Say that again!

I told the president

that I'm not going anywhere.

I will be

in my original position

for the rest of 4 months and 28 days

and continue to do my job.

Come on, man!

Investment Department!

Level-four position! You are not going?

I'm not here to work.

I'm here for the provident fund.

Then what about me?

What about you?

I am working here!

I haven't got a promotion for 5 years.

Investment Department!

Just take me with you!

The problem is that you don't know about investing.

What are you doing there?

You know!

Even so,

what does that have to do with you?

I'm finished!

I already told my wife

that there will be a promotion and raise.

You want a promotion and a raise?

I need to deal with something now.

I'll call you back. Speak.

Who gave you the right

to investigate my agent?

Talk!

Fei,

about that...

Let me explain.

You are going to explain?

You know about this, too?

You...

I asked Counselor Qin to do the investigation.

I gave her the files.

Qin Shi!

I knew that

you would do anything

to win a case.

I never thought that your boundary is so loose.

You are using Tao Junhui.

How could you

be so despicable?

Wu Fei, this law firm

doesn't belong to you.

You are an attorney,

not a shrew.

Being an attorney

means you need to curse people without dirty words

instead of getting physical.

I used Tao Junhui, so what?

Ask him

if he's willing to be used by me.

Fei, let's go.

Leave me alone!

Qin Shi!

Let go of me! Who are you calling a shrew?

She was not talking about you.

It's not what you think.

I asked you

to work with public opinion

and don't let Qin Shi

has a chance to step in.

Why didn't you listen to me?

Why were you investigating the client behind my back?

Calm down.

Tao Junhui, don't talk about

your absurd theories!
