-Thank you. -Stop it. You're so annoying.

Bye, Professor Song.

Professor He.

Did you hear everything?

Come.

Come here.

Don't!

What is it?

It's nothing.

Hey, why is your nose bleeding?

Cai Minmin, come back here!

Did you pull a prank on me?

Fanxing.

When did you start to like shopping for clothes?

I guess after I graduated and started working.

After I started making money, my desire grew for various things.

You are just like the others.

Your desire to buy things is at par with the amount of money you have.

Your life won't be so bad no matter how you live it.

I am not as lucky.

Since I was young, I couldn't resist it whenever I saw pretty clothes.

During high school, I saved money for clothes until I got gastritis.

I could endure gastritis,

but how could I stand not buying clothes I like?

If we can't get the person we like, we have to bear with it.

But with money, we can get the things we want.

If we can't even do that, life would be too bitter.

That's right.

To live a good life, I can never endure these two things.

I should find a rich man who I would like as well.

A rich man who you would like?

So his wealth is the priority?

Of course.

All troubles loom on poor married couples.

They work so hard to make a living and always pull a long face.

They will look like they're 50 when they are 40,

and look like 80 when they hit 50.

When a man is courting you, he would say,

"I love your young, pretty face.

I would also like to kiss your wrinkles when you are 80."

Great.

He doesn't have to wait until I am 80.

He can do it when I am only 50.

Come, kiss me.

This means

that your florist guy is not only rich,

but you like him as well.

This is not enough, something is missing.

I'll just get a set of La Mer and it would be perfect.

That would be 1,280 yuan.

Are you paying in cash or card?

-Card. -All right.

This one.

Okay.

Why don't you use the florist guy's card?

Of course not.

Once I make a payment,

he will receive a message.

Then why did you accept it?

I will use it, but not now.

Thank you.

Let's get Japanese food, it is less oily.

Sure.

Hey.

-Why? -Isn't that Yuan Song?

That girl must be his girlfriend.

They look good together.

-Hey, Yuan Song-- -Wait.

Don't call him.

Who would want to meet their superior after work?

You are right.

He would prefer to hide from you.

Hey, let's go that way.

-Let's look around over there. -Sure.

Let's share the ride. It's hard to get a cab now.

We are going in opposite directions, so there's no need. Bye.

See you tomorrow.

Where are you?

Good morning, my Ms. He.

I am not late today, so praise me.

I'm going to the site. See you tonight.

I am held up by my classmates.

We can't walk the dog together again tonight.

Thank you.

Even if you read my WeChat messages a thousand times,

I won't know what you're thinking if you never reply.

Have your friends left?

Yes, they have all gone home.

Don't misunderstand, they are my juniors at school.

What is there to misunderstand?

Great.

I have been thinking all night about what I should do if you were to misunderstand.

You are already thinking that I am too young,

then you saw me with other girls.

I am already viewed as an intern with no sense of time

and now, I have turned into

a flirty playboy.

I guess I would only be able to win your heart in the next life.

Yuan Song.

I have been thinking

if I have sent you the wrong message.

What do you mean?

You know about Li Haomiao.

You also know my situation.

Perhaps you are affected by the fact

that I am desperate to be in love,

so it led to the misconception that you like me?

You were initially afraid of me.

Even Cong Xiao knows that.

Even if you aren't anymore,

you won't come to like me.

Everyone would be afraid of their strict boss,

but that's not hatred.

If I had not known all those things

and how adorable you are,

maybe I wouldn't have been so sure of my feelings.

But now,

I know it very well.

He Fanxing,

I like you.

How is that possible?

All you think about is how to trick me or piss me off.

It's because you always ignore me.

But...

-But-- -Can I interpret this as,

"You like me, but we can't be together"?

But--

"You are right, but we can't be together."

Those words are hurtful, yet you said them twice.

Why are you pressuring me so hard?

Isn't it normal for me to say no?

Regardless...

Regardless,

I have never said that we would be together.

Besides, it has only been 24 hours since you confessed your feelings to me.

Should I say yes after you have confessed?

Why? Just because you are handsome?

Do you think that I am handsome?

Just because you are handsome,

you skip work, you disrespect me

and you think you have me in the palm of your hands.

Yes, I take care of you because you're handsome.

So what? Is that illegal?

I am already 32 and I have never dated,

but I know that I am an independent and confident woman.

Also, I am still looking forward to being in love and having a beautiful life.

I am aware

that many think I am just a crazy leftover woman.

So, even if I like you,

you are still my brother's student and our company's intern,

and you are ten years younger than me!

You--

What's wrong?

Are you crying?

Wait, you...

He Fanxing.

You have let it slip.

What?

We met each other several times.

They were either a misunderstanding or a coincidence.

Also, those meetings were not pre-arranged.

What would you call that?

Destiny.

How will you court her then?

"Court" is an interesting word.

Have you seen two kids playing games?

One is running, while the other one is chasing.

It is easy to make the person in front of you come to you instead.

Just stop

and she will stop and look.

Then you just have to crouch down

and stick your hand out.

Then say,

"I can't get up, pull me up."

That is cheating.

It's called being vulnerable.

Besides,

she has a crucial weakness.

She has never dated.

Based on my many years of dating experience,

right now, I am basically

an expert with a rare weapon.

She is a novice holding a cane.

I have victory at hand.

Many years of experience?

Don't be so full of yourself.

Did you know that there is an unexpected situation in mahjong?

It is called "interception".

Perhaps she has never had any admirers for the past 30 years,

but there could be few around her now

and you won't be the only one.

That's even better.

Having competition means I have great taste.

I was worried that she would be an easy win.

Good.

I shall wish you success.

Thank you, just wait until I introduce my girlfriend to you.

I hope you won't ask me to drink with you to vent over her.

Don't jinx it.

He Fanxing.

You have let it slip.

You have let it slip.

You have let it slip.

Why are you already awake?

Sleep a little longer.

Canyang is out to buy a Chinese cruller.

I'll wake you up once he is back.

Keep your voice down, I can't hear the television.

But...

Dad, Mom.

If someone likes--

-Stop watching. -Goodness.

-Enough. -My neck hurts.

-I... -I need a massage.

-The soy milk is boiling. -I have to...

I have to get a massage.

My neck hurts.

Here they go again.

Don't you realize that I am already 32 years old?

Good morning, Ms. He.

Morning.

Good morning, Ms. He.

Thank you.

-Qingqing. -Yes?

Have Chang Huan, Cong Xiao and Yuan Song

all gone to set up the booth at the sales office?

Both Chang Huan and Cong Xiao have already gone there.

Yuan Song took a sick leave.

I see.

Yes.

My mom called me this morning to remind me

to make over-easy eggs next Tuesday.

I can't even remember what I have to do tomorrow.

How am I supposed to remember that?

It's even my 30th birthday.

Why did she have to keep reminding me?

Why don't you eat birthday cakes instead of over-easy eggs?

You're indeed the modern Marie Antoinette.

I lived in a small county town.

We didn't have cakes growing up.

We would eat two over-easy eggs for birthdays instead.

No cake on your birthday?

That's news to me.

Then, did you celebrate it with your classmates?

Missy,

of course not.

Even adults don't celebrate birthdays. Only our elders at home do.

Is that so?

That is such a drag.

You are a millennial living the good life.

When I was three years old, my grandma finally had electricity.

We were using oil lamps before that.

When I was young, there was no computer or cellphone.

I would always play in the mud by the river.

I can't imagine that.

It is like living in ancient times.

However,

I really wish to go back to the time I was playing mud by the river.

I wouldn't have to turn 30

and worry about aging,

parents pushing me to marry,

parents dying of old age,

falling sick alone,

or growing up.

Ms. Bai.

I am fine.

The rain is just making me emotional.

Eat up.

By the way, Ms. He.

For this month's employee birthday party,

let's celebrate it on this upcoming Monday?

If it's okay, I'll make reservations for karaoke.

Four people will have their birthdays this month and Yuan Song is the new one.

-Is his birthday this month? -Yes.

When?

I think it is today.

He is even on sick leave.

Could he be using this excuse to celebrate with his friends?

It would be good if he really did.

He lives alone and his parents are not here.

He's sick and home alone on his birthday.

Doesn't that sound pitiful?

Are you sick?

How are you feeling?

Are you home or at the hospital?

MS. HE

Hey, Canyang.

Well...

Do you perhaps know where Yuan Song is staying?

He is sick and didn't come in for work today.

I want to visit him as I'm a bit worried.

All right, send it over.

I used to imagine

how I will meet the person I like.

I would be wearing a beautiful dress

with a nice make up

and spray on some perfume.

I would be like a perfect blossom under the shining sun

and kiss the butterfly.

I would run all the way there,

as light as the breeze,

without stopping.

I want to shower him with passionate love.

Let me in first.

Qingqing said you took a sick leave.

So I came to see you.

You are burning up.

Have you eaten?

What about medicine?

You are sick, so you shouldn't drink cold water.

Stay in bed.

I will boil water and cook for you.

Your hands are cold and your clothes are wet.

I am fine.

I was just caught in the rain for a bit.

Go take a hot shower.

You are here to see me, so don't fall sick either.

Your hair is all wet.

Okay.

You're awake.

How are you feeling?

Great.

What time is it?

It's past 11 now.

I'm sorry.

I have caused you trouble.

When you are sick, don't say,

"I'm sorry, I have caused you trouble."

You should say, "Thank you, I appreciate it."

Thank you, I appreciate it.

It is nothing compared to being sick.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

It is such a pity to be spending your birthday at home, being sick.

Don't be too moved.

I felt sorry for you, so I got you a birthday cake.

Happy birthday.

This morning, I was thinking,

am I sick today because Buddha hates me?

But it seems that Buddha loves me after all.

Buddha is very busy.

He doesn't have time to love or hate you.

Make a wish.

I wish that He Fanxing will be my girlfriend.

Just keep it to yourself, why did you say it out loud?

Why didn't you say no?

Stop messing around.

Let's eat the cake.

You look pretty this way.

Don't waste food.

What?

It's so sweet.

I don't think this seems right.

You like me

and I like you too.

What's so bad about it?

It is bad, it is wrong

and we shouldn't do this.

It is bad,

it is wrong and we shouldn't do this.

But I still like it.

Did you just come home?

How is Yuan Song?

He had a fever and was all alone.

So I stayed at his house just to take care of him.

Of course.

He's just a kid. It's not like you will sleep with him.

-Morning, Dad, Mom. -Morning.

Fanxing, did you just come home?

Yes.

Have you eaten?

Yesterday, I...

-Last night-- -Canyang told me already.

After all,

Yuan Song is still a boy.

He will feel awkward if you take care of him.

Why would he feel awkward?

Of course, he would.

You are his superior and his professor's sister.

You are older than him.

Mom, are you looking down on me?

I am only ten years older than him.

Do I look that old?

Do you like Yuan Song?

I think you are the one who does.

What nonsense are you spurting?

Do you think your sister has no sense like you?

Great.

Then why are you so upset being told you're older than him?

Even if you like him, he would never like you.

Do you have any idea how popular he is in school?

So many girls follow him to class

and take his photo through the window.

And it's so easy to get

into his Ballroom Dance Club.

He has too many girls to choose from.

He Canyang.

Do you think girls are like cabbages in the market?

That you can just choose among them?

I didn't mean it that way, but am I not allowed to be honest?

Why are you so fired up in the morning?

Is it early menopause?

Who has menopause?

I wasn't talking about you, Mom.

Going on and on about menopause!

You are so chatty early in the morning.

You provoked her and said she has menopause.

You are just like your dad!

Hey.

Just scold him and keep me out of it.

Men are all the same.

Do you know that this isn't right?

You are taking it out on me instead.

Don't you have a car?

Why do you always make me your driver?

The parking fee is too expensive.

Girls, after a one-night-stand with a colleague,

how can I avoid being awkward when we meet?

Urgent.

A colleague?

Little Gorilla, tell me.

Why would you ever have a one-night stand with a colleague?

Father said,

"What is done cannot be undone. Don’t be so sad.

There is always a way out.

Just act natural."

Then what is your car for?

To take my dog and best friends to weekend barbecues.

Hadn't I always been your driver every time you went for barbecues?

When my girlfriend tagged along, she said Yang Xiaoyu and I were flirting.

Though I would say we were more like fighting--

How? Should I scold him?

You could beat him up as well.

It won't be awkward if you are enemies.

Or just tell him a dirty joke to lighten the mood.

If one is not enough, tell two.

Dirty joke? Are you out of your mind?

You should do it again, of course.

The second time is always better.

Guys, stop joking around.

Just act like nothing ever happened.

Adults just have a tacit understanding about this kind of thing.

"A tacit understanding"?

So do we need to be telepathic?

Hey.

Are you even listening?

Yes, I am. Just go on.

Act natural.

Just a tacit understanding.

Just act like I normally do.

Act like I normally do.

How do I normally act?

I will be going out later.

The client is asking for the Donghu unit design.

Send it to me once you are done.

-Sure, how many copies? -Act normal.

-Two copies. Send me one. -Normal.

-I will be at my desk. -Okay.

Good morning, Ms. He.

What a coward.

My face was so stiff as if I have been injected with hyaluronan.

It was just sex.

Why should I be afraid?

Ms. He!

I'm sorry.

I must have surprised you.

Hey.

Why did you close the door?

I was worried that others might see us.

Close it then.

But the place is small and we are alone.

A closed-door seems worse.

Then open the door.

But if they hear what I'm about to say, that might be worse.

Close it then.

Should I open or close it?

Close it!

All right.

To be honest,

I am very confused right now.

When a person confesses his feelings,

they'd be together if the other says yes.

The situation now is I have already confessed to you,

but you have yet to answer me officially.

Last night, we even...

Last night...

was because of the ambiance.

We are both consenting adults.

I won't take responsibility for you.

That's the first thing.

Secondly,

about your confession,

I have to do some serious thinking.

How serious?

I have to do some research

on the May-December relationship.

Will the opinions of others on May-December relationship

affect your answer?

Of course.

Or else, why would I bother checking?

All right, it's working hours now.

Go back to your seat.

On Sunday evening,

let's meet at the usual place.

Give me your answer then.

Why are you in such a rush?

Of course, I have already hit a home run and now I have to start over?

Sunday evening then.

Also,

I will only accept confirmation.

No rejection is allowed.

You are the one who confessed to me.

-Don't I have the right to decide? -You do.

So I'm the one waiting for your answer and not the other way around.

However...

If I am not happy with the answer,

I will tell Mr. Li.

I will tell him that you abused your power

and sexually harassed your intern.

-You-- -Professor He entrusted me to you,

yet you sexually harassed me when I was sick.

How could you say that?

Why not?

Didn't you say that I'm young?

I am a kid, I can say whatever I want.

Don't tell me

that the blind date is still on.

How is it? Not bad, right?

Tell the manager how you want to decorate it.

I want to hang fairy lights on the trees and have white balloons everywhere.

I want a flower bouquet.

-And-- -And a customized wedding gown

and a wedding banquet.

Please. Can you keep it low profile?

Don't turn a love confession into a wedding.

I can't help it.

When he looks at me,

I already know which school I'll send our children to.

You are just over 20.

You have a long way to go.

It's a vast forest, so take a look around

and don't settle for one tree.

No, my goal in life is to marry my prince charming.

And then?

Take care of his child,

do laundry, cook, and tidy up his house?

I can hire a maid for those things.

I just have to stay pretty.

If you attract him with beauty,

love shall fade when your beauty does.

Have you heard of that?

Uncle.

Are you educating me or cursing me?

I am trying to talk some sense into you.

You're making him your sun and making yourself a planet

that revolves around him.

Then...

What can I do?

I like him.

I like revolving around him.

You already are.

Now, you're confessing on your birthday to get a reply?

I am 99.9 percent sure that he doesn't like you.

I suggest that you cancel the public confession

and just text him instead.

Don't jinx it!

You are indeed cursing me.

I hope you meet a hot girl on the blind date this weekend

and then she dumps you!

Just worry about yourself.

I wanted to ask you, but what happened to your nose?

Don't even mention it.

I overheard that Ms. Song in my major and Mr. He from my minor

used to be a couple.

Worse yet, when I was eavesdropping, he caught me.

I took Mr. He's class just because I thought it would be easy to score.

Your mom and I never expected that you would get a scholarship,

but at least try and get a diploma.

Stop thinking about it.

Everything will work out.

I will ask the manager to get the fairy lights.

Hello, Ms. He.

Yes, I met a client this morning.

I am downstairs now.

Sure, I will see you later.

-Busy day? You are late than usual. -A little.

Luckily, you are here.

I still have to make a delivery to the office next door.

-I won't go up then. Please sign here. -Sure.

Okay, thank you.

-Sorry, I didn't see you. -It's fine.

I'm sorry.

CUTIE ZHENZHEN, THE RAIN HAS STOPPED, HAVE A GREAT DAY

This is your ocean song bouquet.

-Thank you. -Okay, bye.

GORGEOUS CONG XIAO, THE RAIN HAS STOPPED, HAVE A GREAT DAY
