[Mr. Bad]

[Episode 18]

Sorry.

I should've told you earlier.

You don't have to apologise to me.

You did nothing wrong.

This matter

is beyond your imagination.

You're not mad anymore?

I'm not mad

at you.

Then, can you be happy?

Actually, I know

what's on your mind.

You thought

you were

an ordinary ancient man.

But you never thought that you're not a human at all.

I'm not insulting you.

I'm saying

you found out the fact

that you're a character from a novel.

This

is beyond your expectation.

It's impactful.

Particularly,

I'm the writer of this novel.

Which means I'm your creator.

In other words,

I'm your mother.

It makes sense that you don't want

to date your mum.

Seriously,

I never thought about this before.

What about now?

I feel a little discomfort now.

What am I talking about?

Never mind.

Actually, this doesn't matter.

Then, what is it that matters?

Anything that you think it's important,

I'll fulfil it for you.

You can't help me with this.

How would you know

that I can't help you if you don't tell me?

Just tell me.

What is it that you think

it matters the most?

I...

I actually think

that my current life

holds no meaning at all.

When I first came here,

at least I knew

who I was.

I was lost that time

but I knew

where I came from.

I, Xiao Wudi, was the smartest

and the strongest person in the world.

But now I realise

that everything is false.

I'm not the person

who I thought I was.

I'm not

the Xiao Wudi.

What is

the point of me staying alive?

You don't need a reason to be alive.

Don't think too much.

This is my problem.

You don't have to think

about such complicated thing with me.

It won't do.

I've got to be responsible for you.

Don't treat me like your son.

I got it.

Just give me

two days

to think about it.

Maybe I can figure it out.

What if you can't?

I wish I could.

Then, promise me.

You must figure it out.

Is this something that I can control?

Just promise me.

Okay.

I promise you.

Is there anything else?

Tell me if you've figured it out.

Nan Xing,

don't lock the door.

I'm going out too.

Okay.

[Have you figured it out today?]

[If yes, give me a call. If no, buy an ice cream to eat.]

Bye bye.

Good morning, Miss Ye.

Good morning.

Good morning, Miss Ye.

Good morning.

Good morning, Miss Ye.

Good morning.

Miss Ye.

Who told you that?

I didn't tell you because I didn't want

this to happen.

Sister Qing.

Jiaojiao, you're so pragmatic.

They say that human relationship is superficial.

I haven't left.

And you call me Sister Qing instead of Miss Ye.

Let's see.

Don't cry.

You don't look pretty when you cry.

Girls are not allowed to cry.

It breaks my heart when you cry.

Both of you are men.

Why do you cry like this?

I've never seen you

like this before.

I have to take a photo of this.

I'll take the photo for real if you keep crying.

Well.

Just pretend that I'm going on a vacation.

Anyway, I've never

taken a break for all these years.

From now on,

I can

wake up at any time

I want every day.

I can eat whatever I like.

I won't have to socialise anymore.

Well,

are you envious of me?

Miss Ye, since you're going on a vacation,

just get a good rest.

The company,

we brothers and sisters

will keep on working hard.

Fight on, Miss Ye.

Miss Ye, can we take a photo

with you at last?

Of course we can take a photo together.

Then, let's take a photo with Miss Ye.

Come.

I want to see you smile.

Three, two, one.

You're really going to resign?

Sit.

The editor-in-chief told me

that you're handing over your job to him.

Yes.

For the company's business,

I already have it arranged.

Everything has

its person-in-charge respectively.

Are you protesting against me?

Is it because

I didn't let you have that day off?

I'll give you the day off now.

I'm not protesting against you.

I just think it's not suitable

for us to work together now.

Why is it not suitable?

I think it's suitable.

The company's business

is all on track now.

Every position

has its person-in-charge.

Don't worry.

It won't cause major problems.

I've told

the personnel department.

All you need to do is sign the paper.

I won't sign it.

I won't let you resign.

Whether you agree it or not,

I won't change my mind.

After all this time, you should know me.

After all this time,

have you never fallen in love with me?

Let's not bring up the past.

Miss Ye, you've packed your stuff?

Come and have a seat.

Here's your gift.

[An Assistant's Survival Note]

The secret recipe of being an assistant.

You're too...

I'm too silly, right?

You're too cute.

These are the priorities I've jotted down

[An Assistant's Survival Note]

since I became an assistant until now.

It'll come into play soon.

Miss Ye,

I can't bear to see you leave.

Nan Xing, you know what?

I always have high hopes for you.

Since you joined the company,

you've worked harder than anybody else.

And you're a fast learner.

You're fully capable

of being an assistant.

But I want

you to figure something out.

Which is the path that you really want

to take.

When everyone was bidding farewell to you,

I saw you

being surrounded by them.

You looked tough,

daring

and pretty.

I thought to myself

that I want

to become a person like you.

You know what?

Actually,

I can see your talent

from your work.

I think you're perfectly capable

of being a successful

and excellent writer like Mr. Lu.

A writer like Mr. Lu?

Impossible.

Why is it impossible?

Nan Xing,

do you know

what you're lack of now?

The fearless spirit

that Mr. Lu got when he was young.

Even if you don't trust yourself,

you should believe

in the reason why I chose you.

♫ I wanted to follow you in the crowd ♫

♫ But it's too far to hear ♫

♫ Can I open my eyes ♫

♫ To freeze this moment? ♫

♫ Try to find a way to believe ♫

♫ Travel through the ends of nightmares ♫

♫ How to read dreams? ♫

♫ Waiting for a round of remembrance ♫

♫ Wanting it to be clear yet it sticks ♫

♫ At the moment of waking up ♫

♫ I fear the loss of my heartbeat ♫

♫ Let the snow be over the world ♫

♫ Try to show you everything will be great ♫

After all this time,

have you never fallen in love with me?

♫ Don't fear ♫

♫ When I walk into darkness ♫

♫ Please stay by my side ♫

Let's not bring up the past.

♫ Wait for the waves to take our sorrows away ♫

♫ We all will be flowers ♫

♫ No matter white or black ♫

♫ We'll be close together ♫

♫ The light will never dim ♫

[Ye's Wonton]

There's a vacant table.

Go in and take a seat.

One more Stir Fried Eggplant, Potato and Pepper.

Takeaways for us.

Takeaways?

Sure, one moment.

Boss, my takeaways.

This is yours.

Okay, thank you.

Why are you back?

There are many customers today.

We don't have the time to serve you.

I've resigned.

I'm starving. Is there anything to eat?

Of course there is.

Here, add one more set

of wonton.

Come, I'll add one more set.

Sure.

Boss,

when will my food be ready?

Mum,

can I sleep with you tonight?

Come.

Let's sleep.

I've got to wake up early tomorrow.

Mum,

tell me.

What is the purpose

of a human life?

What's wrong with you?

Are you alright?

Nothing.

I just can't fall asleep.

It's a random thought.

You usually won't think about such a thing.

Something must've happened.

Say it. What's wrong?

I'm thinking that

if I created a person

and I accidentally

brought him to this world,

then...

Wait.

Are you pregnant?

No.

How could I possibly be pregnant?

You said you brought a person

to this world.

You're pregnant.

How many months has it been?

Who is the baby's father?

It was just an example.

You freaked me out.

Let me put it this way.

I've got a friend.

He doesn't know

the meaning of his life.

I'd like to enlighten him.

But I realise

that I don't seem to know

about the meaning of a human life.

Come.

The meaning of a human life, right?

You create

your own life.

No one would know what kind of a person

they'll become,

what they'll do,

what they'll contribute

to the world

right when they were born.

Right?

Right.

But

that friend of mine

thought his past life

was arranged

and it was illiberal.

No one

will have a pure freedom.

More or less, we've got

to accept some arrangements.

The simplest example is

that we can't choose

our parents, right?

So,

let's just be down to earth

and live our own lives.

Do something that we like

and

enjoy the lives we have now.

This is the meaning of a life.

What we should do now is

to go to sleep.

Have you figured it out?

Go back to your room if you do.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

[Have you figured it out today? If yes, call me. If no, buy an ice cream to eat.]

Why are you still up at this late hour?

Xiao Wudi,

my mum said

we create our own lives.

Somehow, there are arrangements

in each person's life.

As long as you try your best

to do your favourite things,

you'll be able to find the meaning of your life.

Or I can ask my mum to talk to you.

She's good at comforting people.

Stop messing around.

Have you lost your weight?

No.

Though you're confused,

you should also take care of yourself.

You should eat well

and have a proper sleep.

Or else,

you'll starve to death when you figure out

the meaning of your life.

What's the point of that?

My body is protected by magical power.

I won't die.

You can't do that even so.

My wish

is to get a charming boyfriend.

If your face is distorted,

I'll return you to the fairy.

You're pushing your luck, aren't you?

Do you really think that I look handsome?

So what?

You're ruined.

What do you mean?

Look at you.

You look more handsome than the others.

And you're smarter than regular people.

You're good at martial arts

and you're knowledgeable.

You always succeed

in doing the things you want.

If even a person like you

can't find the meaning of your life,

what are the ordinary people

like us going to do?

What's the point?

I'm a created character.

What's the difference between you and us?

Isn't this flesh?

Do you still remember

how you looked when you were a kid?

I remember it.

I've never

thought about this before.

But I've been working hard

to figure it out these two days.

I realised that I can't remember

any of this.

Do you get it now?

I'm the only one

who can solve my own problem.

You don't have to think too much.

It's merely a burden for you.

Rest assured, don't worry about me.

Go to sleep.

Goodnight.

Xiao Wudi,

I'll be responsible to you.

Sure.

Then, you can't lie to me.

Why would I lie to you?

Just you wait.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

So this is how you go

to work everyday?

Ye Qing resigned.

It's not like the sky has collapsed.

I'll send

someone over to manage your company.

Don't worry, nothing will happen.

But speaking of which,

you're a boss.

with the unkempt look of yours,

how are you going to face your employees?

How can you reassure

your shareholders?

Come.

Since you

don't have faith in me,

then why did you support me back then?

To be honest with you,

I never thought of supporting you

back then.

That

ridiculous plan of yours,

who would expect it

to work?

If Ye Qing didn't come

to me with the proposal,

how would I transfer

the money to you so soon?

Hence,

the person I had faith in was Ye Qing,

not you.

What proposal?

She met you in private?

I thought she was

a young lady

who tried to

take the opportunity to get ahead.

So I dictated

some terms to her,

trying to make her give up.

I didn't expect her to say yes.

She actually did it.

What did she promise you?

She promised me that she won't date you.

Or I'll withdraw

my investment.

You really said that?

For real.

You seriously said that?

Yes.

I was just trying to scare her.

I didn't expect her to be so determined.

She's more determined than you.

Just come home.

Get familiar

with the company's business and environment.

I told you

that I'm going to retire.

I will

pay you back every cent.

Don't ever think of controlling my company.

I'll never let you control my life.

Can you really do it?

If you're so determined,

don't use the cash flow of the company.

It'll be a large amount of money

if the shares

are converted into cash.

I'm sure no one

in this city

would dare to take over this company.

It's a deal.

Brat.

Look, mum.

I didn't forget the skill.

Not bad.

You're fast.

[Lu Zichen]

Why didn't you answer it?

It's an advertisement. Just ignore it.

We're running out

of the stuffing

and the skin.

We've got some over there.

Ye Qing, where are you?

You didn't pick up the phone.

You're not at your home either.

Hello, your delivery is here.

Thank you.

Bye bye.

I'd like to make

a present

which can record us,

who start over today.

[Xiao Wudi.]

[Help, come here.]

What's going on?

[Name: Xiao Wudi] [Date of Birth: Today]

Xiao Wudi,

welcome to this world.

Starting from today,

you're part

of our family.

I hope

that you could grow up

healthy and happy.

What is this?

Didn't you say

you have no childhood memories?

I'll create it for you.

Let's go to the next station.

Sit over there.

Sit.

Turn to page 34.

Thinking of Shandong Brothers on Double Nine Day.

Xiao Wudi.

What are you looking at?

Give it to me.

You didn't pay attention in class.

Yet, you're reading comic book.

You're put in a time-out.

Happy graduation.

I know I can't make up

for the regret

in your life with this.

But,

I'll take today as your birthday.

I wish

that I can accompany you

on your every birthday in the future.

I'll give you a special privilege today.

You may make a wish and blow out the candles.

I'll close my eyes.

Sure.

Light the candles.

Are you done?

It's done.

Make a wish.

[I wish]

[I could forever stay in this world]

[to protect Nan Xing for the rest of my life.]

Are you done?

Yes.

Blow out the candles.

Let's do it together, okay?

Okay.

Xiao Wudi,

happy birthday.

Nan Xing,

thank you.

I'm very happy.

♫ Come to me, stand by me ♫

Xiao Wudi, stop messing with me.

Xiao... Xiao Wudi!
