(From An Ni) (It's him. Help me keep this a secret.)

I'm so mad.

Those vixens.

How dare they pull that on me!

What's wrong?

Aren't you going to explain yourself?

So you were the one who spread

the rumors about Feng Zheng Zheng.

And you had Sun Qi's wife come to the company

and caused that ruckus.

We're all colleagues.

Why do you have to do that?

What has that got to do with me?

Can't you see

that it's the doing of those vixens?

Then, how are you going to explain

the email sent

from my computer?

You're the only one

who knows the password to my computer.

Can't you see it?

It was Nan Xi!

She hated me

for stealing the emcee position from her.

Didn't you steal it, though?

She gets carried away

so easily.

Right?

She's hopeless.

Yes.

But the labor union president

made it clear too.

As long as the candidate hasn't been confirmed yet,

I'm free to go after it.

I'm different from you guys.

How so?

I had to fight

for every opportunity I have.

Boss Ren could turn around

and change his mind in the blink of an eye.

I'm not a prodigy like you

or a maverick genius like Zhang Jiang.

And I'm definitely

not the boss's prized employee, Wu Yue.

Do you understand?

All right.

I believe everything you said.

Since you didn't do it,

then go and clear things up with Feng Zheng Zheng.

Is there a point to that?

Right. Is there any point in doing that?

Pay attention!

Everyone is saying

that she's a bit messed up in the head.

The way she looks at others is weird too.

Is there any point

in trying to talk to her now?

Of course there is!

She doesn't just hate you.

She hates me too!

You have to tell everyone the truth.

Tell...

Tell Feng Zheng Zheng the truth.

Hate or not...

Do you think I care about that?

If you want to talk to her, go by yourself.

Then I'll go to talk to Mai Qi.

For what?

To complain?

To plead.

I'm busy!

(Mad Geek) It wasn't my intention

to go against the organizing committee's wishes on purpose.

I just wanted

to give my team

a boost.

We need some stimulation.

If I failed,

I wouldn't tell them.

But if I succeeded,

I think

we could carry on fighting.

And who are you

to represent your entire team?

Is there something

special about you?

Because

I am the founder of this algorithm.

And the algorithm

is the core of this entire venture.

Lin Shao!

Lin Shao!

Who do you think you are?

What gives you the right to represent us on the show?

Lin Shao!

He... He already came to explain himself.

To explain what?

When do you think this program was filmed?

He had tons of chances

if he wanted to explain.

Wu Yue.

What exactly is going on?

That's enough.

This is getting out of hand.

Those who aren't involved, get back to work.

Go on now, everybody.

Those who were involved, stay back.

I'll be the judge.

All of you, sit down.

This means...

We're officially going to participate

in a reality TV show.

We're going to have to steal the limelight on the show.

Hold on.

Didn't you just spouted nonsense

on the show, Wu Yue?

Who do you think you are?

I'm telling you,

we haven't even decided if we would accept you yet.

That's right, Wu Yue.

What gives you the right to sign us up for it?

It's not like

we couldn't find any investors.

Xiao Man.

Say something.

The investor is your dad's friend.

Your dad would speak up for us, right?

He won't even help

put in a good word for us?

Is he even your dad?

It's not that he won't help.

My dad said

either

he convinces the investors

or

he'll become

our angel investor.

But there's a condition.

I have to be the majority shareholder.

He is your dad, after all.

What else could I do?

I don't want this to end just like this either.

If we go on the show,

we'll be able to get investors and publicity.

Mass communication

and the viewership of the show itself.

Those resources are far better

than what the angel investor could offer us.

Especially given

that this angel investor

is demanding too much from us.

Insisting on getting veto rights to the operation

basically means denying

the status of the founders.

That's exactly right!

I weighed the pros and cons.

The four of us

complement each other and make up for each other's weaknesses.

It would...

be better

than letting Ah Gui tackle it on her own.

But as we advance,

we may need to quit our jobs.

But

that's provided that we win, of course.

I don't want to.

Who cares about going on some show?

I don't want to join either.

I'm a cosplay geek.

It will be weird

if I show up on stage.

If this is your last hope,

I'll go.

I don't get it!

Things were going fine the way they were.

Even if things don't work out with the angel investor,

I could fork out the money in the worst-case scenario.

Why do we have

to go on a sensationalist show?

We don't even know

if we'll be able to play their game

or be played by them.

I'll be honest.

Boss Ren came clean with me.

There has always been a hurdle

that the facial recognition system

needs to overcome.

Data confidentiality.

This

also determines the limitations of the market.

It restricts how far we can go.

In order to go further with it,

we need

to reconsider market demands.

And reposition our product

on our existing foundation.

I have ideas.

I'm not looking down on you guys.

But if you guys fail,

it'll be a haphazard end.

But if you win

on this show,

you are guaranteed to be offered

millions in venture capital.

Why not give it a try?

He has a point.

And what do you know?

What gives him the right?

I think what he said

makes sense.

So are you guys going on the show or not?

If you are,

make sure you help promote my stuff too.

Lao Xu.

Stop kidding.

I'm not kidding.

Why isn't he here yet?

If you don't get on the bus right now,

I'll have you run

after it for three kilometers.

Don't.

Just wait for a bit longer, Sister Mai Qi.

You're the smartest, the kindest,

the cutest, and the most generous.

One...

Two...

All right.

I'm getting on the bus.

(Suzhou Dongfang Passenger Transport)

I'll take care

of this brat when we get back.

Don't do that.

Edward.

He's a fast runner.

He's definitely fast.

Of course he can run.

I'll have run

10 kilometers

next time.

Sit here.

How many times have I told you that?

Maintain your distance.

I can't believe Lin Shao

would need to do something like this for charity.

Well,

what do you think I should do for charity then?

Receptions, celebrities,

beauties, and checks.

Not a bad idea.

I'll keep those in mind.

Lin Shao,

what are you sponsoring today?

Be careful now.

Here. The girls will carry the smaller boxes.

Here. Take these over here.

Careful now.

Right. The smaller ones over there.

Over here, guys.

Carry the bigger boxes.

Be careful now.

I'll help you.

Thanks.

Go ahead first.

I'll help you!

Oh, it's all right!

These are all...

A Ling's stuff.

I don't know what's inside these as well.

Hongqixiang is A Ling's home too.

Her brother

is studying at the primary school we're visiting today too.

But...

She doesn't want others to know.

So don't tell everyone.

Let's go.

- Welcome! - Welcome!

(Hope Primary School) Welcome!

Welcome to our school!

Welcome!

Welcome to our school!

Tian Tian.

Come and have some soup.

Slowly now.

Is it hot?

Yes, it's hot.

Drink slowly, then.

Here.

Have a piece of pork rib.

Is it good?

It's tasty.

Brother,

I want my arm to stay fractured tomorrow too.

Don't be ridiculous.

Let's have more bones for you to chew on tomorrow.

It's all right.

You guys can touch it.

You won't get electrocuted.

No. My hands are dirty.

That's all right.

Just do this to get the dirt off.

And you can always wipe them whenever they get dirty.

Come on, have fun with it.

Look.

What is this for?

This is the mouse.

You see

this arrow up here?

If you move the mouse,

the arrow will move around

as well.

You can control it when you move the mouse.

Here I come!

I'm going to catch you!

No! There's nothing!

Where is it? Where is it?

Give me back my watch! My watch!

And when I do this...

Look. Over there!

I'm going to catch you!

You run too fast, little kid!

Come here!

Little kid!

All right!

Are you guys tired?

Do you want to get something to drink?

It's the free time right now.

Go on, kids.

Come on.

Go on now.

Right.

Actually,

it is much more practical to give these kids books and pencils

over laptops and computers.

Let's make the arrangements.

Next time,

we'll buy those in bulk and send them here.

All right.

We'll come again together next time.

But you're still you.

You do appear

wherever there are pretty girls.

I saw you

having a nice chat

with Ms. Shi just now.

Ms. Shi?

She has been teaching here for two years.

She can't bear to part from these kids.

She might...

find a local

and get married here,

and become the new generation of intellectuals in this place.

So I told her this.

If she wants to get married,

she has to marry a handsome guy.

The most handsome guy!

Well, I think...

You're the most handsome guy here right now.

Why don't...

you stay here then?

How could you give me up

that easily?

What are you guys talking about in secret over there?

She said she wants to leave me here.

How could I bear to see that happen?

You guys carry on.

I'm going to take care of the kids.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you, kids.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Sister Zheng Zheng, this is for you.

Thank you.

Come and visit us again, Sister Zheng Zheng.

Bye-bye.

Who do you want to give this to?

You.

Thank you.

Will you guys come again?

Of course.

Of course, we will.

The wildflowers over there are really pretty.

But they're all wilted.

But no matter how pretty those are,

they're not as pretty as the one

you gave me.

Give me a hug.

All right.

Let's meet again next time.

Pinky promise.

- Bye-bye. - Bye.

- Goodbye. - Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Sir,

could you drop me off up ahead?

Hang on.

I'll stop by the side.

Thank you.

Dad.

Mom.

Dad!

Mom!

Brother.

Brother.

Brother!

I'm here.

What is it?

Can you always be there

for me

when I call you?

Okay.

Who is this?

Me when I was a child.

Where is this place?

My childhood home.

Where was I

at that time?

You weren't born yet.

Silly.

So this is

our childhood home,

right?

Yes.

Even though you were born in the city,

this is your home too.

It's our home.

Brother.

When are we going home?

Let's go home right now,

okay?

Okay.

We'll go home right now.

Why won't you go home yet?

Everything you've thought of...

Everything you've experienced...

It will all pass.

Slowly now.

Watch your hand.

It's so beautiful here.

Brother,

tell me about your childhood.

My childhood?

I was as naughty as you are.

I often fell too.

Would dad smack you when you were naughty

like he did to me?

Of course, he would.

Then, would your mom

put a soothing ointment on your butt

after your dad gave you a smacking?

Brother, I know...

your mom isn't my mom.

But my mom is your mom.

Silly child.

My mom is your mom too.

She would definitely love you.

Really?

We'll go and visit her tomorrow,

all right?

I'll have another mom.

That's great!

Mind your hand.

(Picturesque Jiangnan)

Thanks.

(Reception)

I'd like a room.

Your ID, please.

(Akana Rika's visit:)

(The rainstorm is pouring down.)

(Somebody, please help me!)

Lin Shao.

What's up?

Where are you?

Where else could I be?

I'm at home.

Really?

So there aren't any storms

or power outages in your area, then?

No, I mean...

How did you know?

It's all dark in here.

It's scary.

Don't be scared.

I'm in the room next to yours.

If anything happens, I'll rush in.

No...

How could that be?

Stop joking around.

How could you know where I am?

Didn't you write it on your post on WeChat?

"Somebody, please help me!"

Well, I'm here now, aren't I?

You know

I worry about you.

I don't believe you.

You love messing with others.

How could you possibly know

which room I'm in?

All right.

If you heard that,

you'd know it's me.

Copy that.

I guess this means we are connected, right?

Brother.

My hand feels itchy in the cast.

Just scratch it over the cast. You'll feel better.

Look.

You slept until this hour.

We've wasted

a perfectly good morning.

Please.

I had to knock on the headboard all night.

Do you think it was easy for me?

So I knocked

this morning as well, didn't I?

You owe me. Of course you have to pay it back.

The next day by the latest.

Oh, right.

Why did you come

to this water town?

"Akana Rika's Visit".

What's that?

A Japanese?

Let's talk about something serious.

Won't you reconsider

joining Mad Geek?

No way.

Can't you be a little more mature?

Wu Yue's analysis makes sense.

And my dad

can't be of much help either.

We're not exactly

in the best position right now, either.

I know.

That's why I'll raise the funds.

I don't believe I won't be able to do it.

It's just a few hundred thousand.

I'm sure I can get my hands on the money.

Yes.

You may be able to get the money this time.

But what about next time? If we need even more?

And if we want to expand the operation,

we'll need to recruit more people.

Where are you going to get all that money?

Do you really want to join the competition?

Then remember this.

I'm doing it for...

Wu Yue, wait!

It's not what you think it is.

Here's what happened...

It's a rare opportunity

for me to play God.

Think about it.

I wouldn't give up that easily.

Besides, you came as well, didn't you?

But unfortunately, you were late.

And it gave me the chance to be a hero.

I have something else to do. I'll take my leave first.

Can't you

talk normally?

Who's that kid?

His little brother.

Is that his little brother or his son?

Could you say that you never doubted it?

Do you think everyone is like you?

I was brought up well

in this aspect.

I would never...

Hey, don't walk away.

Tian Tian.

Don't be afraid.

This is my mother.

She lives here.

Hello, Mom.

My name is Wu Tian Tian.

I'm six years old this year.

I go to kindergarten.

Mom.

I'm back.

But...

They're all gone.

I wonder if you've met any of them.

I'm living together

with Tian Tian now.

We're doing great.

You don't have to worry about us.

Mom,

these are for you.

If you see my parents...

Please tell them

that my hand will be healed soon.

It doesn't hurt.

Mom.

Don't worry.

I will never forget.

Xiao Yue...

People get sick, grow old, and pass on.

Don't be upset.

You must remember.

You can't be too selfish.

You can't be too greedy.

You can't...

You can't hurt others for your own gain.

You mustn't bully the weak.

A simple life

is a blessing.

It's peace.

I remember all of them.

Mom.

You'll definitely get better

and recover from your illness soon.

Don't cry, Brother.

Don't cry, Brother.

(Call me when it's time to eat, I'm tired.)

6.30 pm.

Yes.

Just get ready.

Come on. Let's go to eat.

Give me another half an hour.

I can't. Let's go now.

Zhang Jiang...

Just the both of us.

Lin Shao, slow down!

What's the matter?

I'll tell you while eating.

If Zhang Jiang finds out

that we had a feast behind his back

without telling him,

he'll swallow me instead!

Lin Shao!

I just came back from a meeting with a client.

Let's have a meal together.

Then, you guys go ahead.

I have to catch up with work.

Since everyone is here,

why don't we clear the air once and for all?

- No. - No.

There's nothing to say.

So don't say anything.

Xiao Man!

Let's go to eat.

Eat?

So, is car racing fun?

On the plane back to China a few months ago,

she was just about a meter away from me.

So what?

Even if she is the first thing

you see,

the first thing that she sees

will always be Wu Yue!

Not you!

Nothing is forever!

What's so good about her?

I have good look and a good shape.

I don't lose out to her on any of those!

She understands me!

What does she understand about you?

Take this car, for instance.

She knows what it means to me!

And you?

You just think it's gaudy

and not as cool as a Porsche!

But that's a fact!

What did I say wrong?

I just don't care

to be liker her!

Being all pretentious

and faking kindness!

She is kind!

How could you say that

as her best friend?
