[The Secret of Love]

[Episode 18]

CEO Li, you cannot enter without an appointment!

CEO Li!

Chairman Gao!

You are showing up here uninvited. What brings you here?

I came to tell you,

don't do anything to the people around me.

What do you mean by this?

Miss Su has her own legs,

how can I control where she goes?

What you say makes perfect sense.

But you should not forget one thing.

What's the reason that your last name isn't Li?

You should not take a mile after I gave you an inch.

During all of these years, I gave you all the low-end markets,

yet you are still fighting with Jiashang?

What are you fighting for? For my seat, after I die?

Don't forget! He belongs to our Li Family!

Do you know what trust is?

You don't! Otherwise, you wouldn't have come looking for me!

Actually, we are both the same at the core.

It must be so, since blood ties can't be changed.

We both can't trust people easily,

but we ask others to trust us unconditionally.

Distrust is our family trait.

Tell me... are we pathetic or not?

We are.

Chairman Gao, you tell me.

If someone can't even trust his own son,

who is the one at fault then?

I didn't think you'd speak up for him.

You should not forget how he treated you back then.

Our Jiashang is getting more and more powerful.

You are no longer that kid

who was screaming and crying to find his girlfriend.

When the corpse was transported and received,

Jiashang was getting more interested in the research institute, so he wasn't there that day.

When they left, I noticed that, in the document they gave me,

the page number had already been changed to 8.

Hey! What are you thinking about by yourself?

Is this how you treat your battle buddy?

Is this how you betray your battle buddy?

You didn't tell me we must hide from him.

Besides that, you were displaying affection in such an obvious manner at the product launch event.

I didn't know you wanted to keep him out.

I am not keeping him out.

I only want to find the right timing so I can tell him.

Frankly speaking, you still don't trust them!

Fine, fine!

I will keep my mouth shut and won't comment on your relationship.

Give me a chance to make up for it!

I found the company where Zheng Yi used to work as a medical examiner.

I'll visit there later, to see why he quit and then changed his career.

You are somehow useful.

In your eyes, do you think the only function of men is being used by you?

Shouldn't people be happy at the value they create when being used?

Remember to pay the bill!

You have ordered so much!

I am back!

How was your day?

One whole day of recruitment presentations!

My brain is fried!

Why so many?

Right, they forced all of these into my hand.

It's so tedious being number one in the class.

Lee Group attended as well?

Yes.

And Li Jiashang was there in person!

Did he repeatedly emphasize

that they value the development of scientific researchers?

How did you know?

He even said that Lee Group started with cosmetics,

then moved on to skincare research. People were not confident in them at the time,

until the first generation of exceptional skincare technology was developed,

which suddenly made Lee Group a high-end skincare brand.

That's why he wants to be the first to hire

the best candidates like you.

He said that he will let me work at Lee Group Research Institute

and will pay for the break fee of my modeling contract.

Do you want to go?

Just thinking of

working with him makes me uncomfortable all over.

This person looks so familiar.

[2001 Li Mu Research Institute Memorial Photograph]

Xiangtai, look.

So similar.

Except that his head became balder and his eye bags became bigger.

Wu Linjiang, Lee Group Research Institute core researcher representative.

Sis, this person is in both the contacts and the group photo,

- so... - So this means that he is like my father and Zhu Yue.

From the establishment to the closing of Li Mu Research Institute, he was there the whole time.

This person has always been in Lee Group Research Institute,

which means that he must know a lot about Uncle Mu.

Looks like I need to find the time to visit Lee Group Research Institute.

Sis, I should go. I have to intern there anyway.

If you visited so suddenly, it would be suspicious.

What are you doing?

Didn't someone just say that they felt uncomfortable all over?

Yes, I am uncomfortable. I have to move to a dorm in order to intern.

I don't want to make you live alone.

Yangyang, is the surgery over?

I ordered food for you, did you receive it?

Later I'll pick you up from work.

"You know what love is?" (T/N: reference to a popular Chinese novel)

"It is when two people stick together in life and death."

You want to die for love?

A'Shang, your humor is more catastrophic than when my Yangyang acts cute.

If you're done eating then leave.

You two haven't made up yet?

Because you're in a drought yourself, you won't let me receive waves of love?

Think about it. If Xia Xiyang did something behind your back,

how would you feel?

Whatever she does behind my back, she does it for your Su Yi.

I'd rather you die for love.

Okay,

you blame her for not being completely honest with you, and she blames you for asking someone to follow her.

Both of you are like "the pot calling the kettle black".

My purpose is to protect her.

- She is also trying to protect you. - Protect me?

You said it yourself. She hid those real and fake autopsies from you.

Tell me, who do you think is behind that?

Don't say you have never raised a doubt. If Su Yi really forces you to cut ties with your family,

can you say that you will not hesitate even a little?

In the beginning, I was suspecting only of his grandpa.

But Gao Mu's words made me think that Li Jiashang isn't that simple either.

Then ask him directly if he had anything to do with the body donor.

I'm scared that he will directly admit it, but I'm also scared that he will lie and deny it.

I do kind of want to avoid that.

Then there could be one more possibility left.

He really has nothing to do with it and Gao Mu is the one lying.

It might be.

Let's go!

But Yangyang, I was thinking...

If Gao Mu is really as innocent as he claims to be,

what could have he done to make his family desert him?

At the banquet, Chairman Li was acting as if he was a stranger to him.

Li Jiashang as well! He was so hostile to him!

Most probably this Gao Mu

is just another Vice President Zhang who came to disrupt things.

But he did help me find the autopsy report from Zheng Yi.

Maybe he did that on purpose to ingratiate himself with you.

Look at who you've reached out to before,

Zhu Yue and Chu Mo. They both want to avoid talking about that incident.

Only Gao Mu seems enthusiastic about helping. Do you really think it's because he knew your parents?

Yangyang, my brain is a mess right now.

I can't even trust my own memory.

Did you recall something?

I always feel like

the last location in my memory is Li Mu Research Institute.

But Uncle Zhang told me that I'm wrong.

He said that my amnesia was caused by the car accident.

I think you can trust your own memory.

Since, no matter if it's good or bad, it's what you have been searching for.

[Li Jiashang, Ding Hang]

Yes, Yiyi.

Aren't you sleeping yet? It's so late!

You had a nightmare again?

Since you two had an argument, not even Plus One can protect you anymore.

I suspect that I'm living in a magical world.

Maybe it's because Xiangtai also moved out today.

Why do you look like a beast in human clothing today?

Are you going to be an emcee?

Don't move. I have something to tell you.

Then say it quickly.

I only have half an hour lunch break. I want to go back and take a nap.

Ok, ok. It's quick.

I have something to give you.

Hey, did you do something wrong?

No, I just...

It's hot today.

Did something fall?

- What's that? Let me see. - It's nothing.

Let me see.

Give it. Give it to me!

Quickly.

♫ You are my unique light. A different existence ♫

Is there not even a box?

I know it's a little early, a little rushed.

But I'm not just acting on impulse.

I admit that I was initially interested in you due to your looks,

but falling in love with you is my revolt against my previously numb life.

Zheng He and Xia Xiyang, a perfect match!

The first time I saw you, I imagined

what expression you would have when I propose to you,

and what we will name our first child.

Something that I'm so sure,

only happens once in a lifetime.

Yangyang,

I want to be the one who always makes you happy.

I am very very seriously asking you

to spend the rest of your life with me.

What expression do I have right now?

A "how did I succumb to this dumb man" expression.

Then shouldn't you kneel down?

On one knee. Who proposes when kneeling down on both knees?

Embarrassing.

- Oh right. - Why are you still here?

Remember to go home for dinner on Friday.

Remember to bring my daughter-in-law.

Well, my wife,

will you be attending the dinner on Friday?

Get up.

What's with you?

You rascal,

you haven't promised me yet. Think about how long you've not returned home for dinner.

Do you not know why I don't go back home?

If I hadn't seen you two today, were you planing on keeping this from me?

I don't have anything to keep from you. I have always planned on marrying her.

I'm warning you. I'll overlook how you disobey my words,

but every human has to have affection and loyalty.

I don't need you to tell me, I will treat Yangyang like family,

and treat her well for the rest of my life.

- Where are the people who were harassing you? - I scared them away.

You're one step too late.

Nobody was harassing you, right?

There was.

You did come here.

Don't be mad, I really need your help.

When I was showering earlier, I ran out of hot water.

Did you make me come here on purpose?

So clever, you saw right through my ruse.

Are you too lazy to even lie to me right now?

Why would I lie to you? I just want to tell you that

every day that I don't see you at Lee Group, makes me upset.

I want to see you, so I want to see you right away.

Are you, rich people, having too much time?

Does torturing others make you happy? It's already so late, but I came here from the research institute,

thinking that you're really in danger.

20 kilometers of road, I only took twenty something minutes–

Why do you like me?

Don't think too much.

Can't we follow our feelings?

Call Manager Su in.

Okay, CEO Li.

Come in.

Why is Manager Luo here as well?

What? Do you not welcome me?

Didn't CEO Li call me here to report my work?

I just wanted to come with Manager Luo,

since many ideas were discussed among the two of us.

If you two want to talk about your relationship, I can leave first.

No need.

Go ahead and report.

These are two plans regarding the new storefront.

I personally lean towards A.

I choose B.

- But CEO Li– - We will settle on B.

Are you very happy recently?

Is it that obvious?

Last night,

I succeeded.

How dare you, to my brother–

Don't discuss private matters during work time.

Recently, there are a few larger e-commerce platforms

that want us to spotlight our new products through livestreams.

We can think about that.

Livestream discounts can increase sales,

but it's not beneficial for returning purchases in physical stores.

Everything has pros and cons. You can't only consider the cons.

What if there are more cons than pros? There has to be a balance, right?

What do you think, Manager Luo?

I think you two are very childish.

Can you two avoid bringing your private emotions to work?

Okay. Manager Su, I have another mission for you.

Attain the primary sponsor spot for this reality program.

Reality program sponsorships are the epitome of high profile marketing,

which is what we have been trying hard to avoid.

- I think– - Earlier, we only did small investments.

Just to test out the waters. Now, sales continue to rise.

I think we are ready to do big-scale marketing.

Can I deny this mission? It does not fit with our new product's image.

You can.

I have assigned this to Manager Luo already. You are just my backup.

When did you assign it to me?

A couple of days ago.

Okay. Then I'll go first.

Su Yi!

Milk hasn't been feeling so well lately. Come with me to the Pet Clinic.

[Rui Mu Pet Clinic]

How is it, doctor?

The situation is not very promising. Cats usually use their tongues to clean their fur.

But it's very difficult to eliminate the swollen particles from the fur through defecation or vomiting—

Is it feeling ill?

Yes. How about this? I will give it some pain killers later,

and you come take it back home tomorrow. Alright?

Doctor, please give it this.

Alright.

Thank you.

Jiashang.

Milk must be feeling very sick right now.

I am wondering... if I should make it less painful...

But haven't you previously said that as long as it lives,

there is still hope for improvement?

You also heard what the doctor just said. Milk is way too old.

I don't want it to suffer like that.

Let's wait a few more days!

I am being selfish,

I want to keep it by our side, to accompany us,

for however many days it will be able to stay with us.

I've thought about the sponsorship.

Earlier, I did not fully think it over. I would like to put in some effort as well.

Don't worry, everything is going smoothly on Manager Luo's end.

- Hello? - Li Jiashang!

How did you offend the platform?

I waited here for three whole hours,

and suddenly they told me they don't want to meet. Are they trying to play with me?

Your own mess, clean it up yourself.

Looks like there's still a bit of challenge, CEO Li.

If it was that easy, I wouldn't have made Manager Luo personally visit them.

Hello, Yangyang.

What?

Break up?

I caught you going on blind dates,

how can you break up with me? I should be the one to bring it up.

What's up with you two?

Didn't you two just have a successful proposal? What's with blind dates and breaking up?

Sit.

Doctor Xia, you're Zheng He's girlfriend, right?

Your ring is so pretty. He bought it, right?

Coincidentally, I have one as well.

He bought this for me when we went shopping the other day.

Zheng He is like a wild horse. He's used to running around freely.

Whoever thinks that they can bring him under their control

will end up like me,

hurting black and blue.

Look at my head, it's even greener than a struggling stock market. (T/N: This means he is getting cheated on.)

What do you mean?

What do I mean?

Break up. Are you deaf? How many times do I need to say it?

You tell me first.

You promised to marry me, why did you go see other guys?

Don't be too emotional, discuss the issue at hand first.

Right. You two have a misunderstanding.

Just talk it out and you'll be fine.

Then why don't you two try communicating better?

Mind your own business.

You. Why did you go on blind dates?

Let alone he was seeing someone behind my back,

the other girl was so low, she made me look bad.

No, that girl is actually a pain.

She chased me for so many years but I've always paid her dust. (T/N : ignored her)

I guess she was affected by the proposal pictures that I posted.

You have to trust me. You have to trust my taste.

If you dare lie to me, you will never have kids.

Plus being struck by five thunderbolts and my corpse will be exposed on the street.

Yangyang, if you have anything you doubt about me in the future, you can just ask me or even slap me.

But don't overthink.

Even more, don't easily give up on me. Okay?

From now on, you can look at my phone whenever you want. The passcode is your birthday.

I'll be upset if you don't look at it.

You have to treat it like going to work and make it a routine.

Don't add to my workload. Who cares? Leave.

I am really not scared of you being dramatic, I am scared of you not caring at all.

Who are you calling dramatic? If it was anyone else,

is it worth me being so mad?

Right, right, right. It's all because of me.

I am so much in love, but I don't realize it.

Yesterday I sent my sister to her filming set.

She told me why you decided to return to the country.

Those suspicions indeed are very closely related to Lee Group.

You also told her that your pleasant surprise after returning was me,

and that you didn't want to hurt me.

I never said anything so melodramatic.

Don't think that you have lost, because I can read your thoughts.

Either ways, I have always loved you more.

Yiyi, we already lost seven years.

Do we have to waste more time in a pointless stalemate?

Actually, what Zheng He said makes a lot of sense.

Then if you have any doubts or questions,

ask me directly.

- You as well. - Then I'll ask.

I'll ask first.

Why did you have someone follow me?

That day when I saw you almost get hit by a car outside Ming Xiu,

I thought someone might be targeting you.

Of course I had to send someone to protect you.

Your turn.

Why did you meet with Gao Mu?

I feel like he still knows something.

If I don't get all the information out of him,

I won't back down.

Turns out telling the truth is this easy.

For the two of us, it does seem pretty easy.

Yiyi, I know these years

you have been used to the freedom of doing everything solo.

But now you're not alone anymore. I hope you get used to me as well.

I will try my best.
