Su Xiao Man.

You are becoming meaner and meaner.

But I'm wishing both of you well.

I've chased you away a few times.

Why are all of you still here?

Look at the time.

Our patients need to rest.

You...

Are you all

having a date here?

I'm sorry,

but our colleague is too pitiful.

Just help us out a little.

Fine.

I'll let you guys off

because of this chap.

He helped us move another pregnant lady

and even got his hands soaked in amniotic fluid.

I'll arrange for a bed.

But

tomorrow morning

other patients will be admitted.

So you...

Forget it, forget it, forget it.

I'll just take the scolding.

Thank you...

(In-patient)

I've already been admitted.

You should go home and have a rest.

I've troubled you too much.

No way.

The doctor said that

the placenta previa condition is a serious condition.

You shouldn't even move at all.

You have to be resting all the time.

Eating, drinking, going to the toilet.

All have to be done on the bed.

If we leave,

who will take care of you?

It's fine.

Aren't nurses here too?

How about this?

I'll let both of them go back first.

For tonight,

Zhang Jiang and I

will take care of you.

Thank you.

Here.

Let me fix your blanket.

Sorry.

Excuse me.

Excuse me, excuse me.

(Jin Long Supermarket)

What are you doing?

Don't run!

Give it back!

Give it back!

You loser!

Mate.

Mate.

I'm rushing to the bank to fix the server.

I'm begging you.

Just give me my bag.

I'll give you all the money I have now.

I don't need you to tell me what to do.

Don't run!

Don't run!

Stop there!

Stop there!

You...

Stop following me.

You won't be able to catch me.

Mate.

Stop chasing me.

If you keep chasing me,

I'll throw your bag down.

Then neither of us will get it.

If you dare to throw that bag down,

I'll die with you!

Must you?

Isn't it just a bag?

Why must we die together?

I'll just give the bag to you.

I'll give it back to you.

I've given you back.

I only have this one chance.

You almost

tossed it into the water.

I'll fight you!

I will fight you!

Hello.

Hello.

I'm Wu Zhi Xiong from the maintenance department.

Sorry, I'm late.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

You're...

(Ai Xin Technology Company) (Engineer, Wu Zhi Xiong)

A thief robbed me.

That's why I'm late.

Are you alright now?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

We were so anxious.

Worried that you couldn't make it.

Our company's promise is that

we will definitely be there

within 24 hours.

We will live up

to our words.

Okay, then let's hurry.

Let's go. Go, go.

A Ling.

A Ling.

A Ling.

How are you doing?

Are you alright?

Zhi Xiong, you're finally back.

The baby and I are fine.

What happened?

Why was there massive bleeding?

The doctor said it is placenta previa.

It couldn't be foreseen.

How did you get hurt?

I'm fine.

A thief stole my bag,

I chased after him.

A Ling.

Why didn't you

call me earlier?

She was afraid of disrupting your work.

You...

If they hadn't

sent me to the hospital in time,

I'm afraid the baby and I

might have been in danger.

They helped me

fight for a bed.

Otherwise, I'll be sleeping in the corridor.

It's not a big deal.

Of course it's a big deal.

To help me,

Wu Yue donated blood.

Xiao Man made chicken soup.

Chai Qing cooked eggs.

Zhang Jiang,

in order to help me,

helped the nurse to move a pregnant lady,

fix a computer,

and get wet with amniotic fluid.

I'm just learning in advance

in case I need to know in the future.

Have some porridge while it's hot.

Thank you.

You too.

Eat something.

You rushed here overnight.

You must have missed breakfast.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Isn't it great?

We went full circle

and now we've all

reunited again.

This is called

fate.

Eat some too.

Read this.

Hello.

I'm Shan Hu.

You're Shan Hu?

Sister Mai Qi interviewed you, right?

Welcome to Xiao Que Xing.

Hello, Ms. Su.

No need to call me Ms. Su.

Just call me Xiao Man.

Mr. Wu.

Hello.

Do you know us?

I'm a huge fan of Mad Geek.

When I was watching, I thought

that it would be amazing

if I could join your team.

I never thought that my wish could come true.

I thought we have two more people?

They went out for a date.

Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lin.

No.

That...

Mr. Lin

doesn't really come to the office.

So we had

a new member join us.

She is the visual,

Chai Qing.

You can sit over there.

Ms. Zhu.

The recipient written here

is Ren Qian Qiu.

How should we deal with it?

What's inside?

The company's earlier order

for a "the Best Award" trophy.

I suppose he

ordered it for those juniors of his.

It's a pity

they were all ingrates.

Then

we should just throw it away.

Hold on.

Just send it over to him.

After all,

it was his hard work.

(Wu Yue, The Best Award) (Brain Data)

(Chai Qing, The Best Award)

(Xia Fei)

(LEGENDARY)

Why did you drink so much?

Are you worried about me?

You haven't changed at all.

I've become old.

I took this photo.

Look at the me in the past.

My eyes.

My brows.

They were so beautiful and youthful.

But look at me now.

No matter how hard I try to take care of my skin,

do facials,

wear makeup,

all that's revealed

is a hideous,

savage look.

Everyone grows old.

This is unavoidable.

It's the law of nature.

No.

Stop comforting me.

I'm the one who's changed.

The face is the index of the mind.

I'm no longer who I used to be.

Do you know that I'm leaving?

I'm leaving this place.

Leaving?

Where to?

You're not hiding from me too, are you?

Boss.

Boss.

Are you still open?

We just got off the train.

And we have a

presentation here tomorrow.

We still have to amend the report.

Our phones are dead

and there's no Internet connection.

We're open.

I have everything

you want here.

Take a seat.

I'll go and boil

a kettle of hot milk tea for you.

This bug is weird.

Come on, take a look.

There's no issue with the code.

Why is the interface frozen?

Who would be so free to find this bug?

It's unlikely to be a problem.

It's fine.

Why is it so hard to find an investor?

I went to so much trouble to find two

who were interested,

but after a whole speech,

the results were still the same as before.

All businessmen are crafty.

They're just being greedy.

Take it slow.

As long as we have our products,

people will come to us.

I can afford to wait.

But I'm afraid Lin Shao's investment

can't afford to wait.

No.

Help me up.

I must keep working hard.

I just don't believe it.

Does Goddess have any trump cards?

Instead of waiting passively,

why don't we take the initiative?

I've decided.

I'm going to pitch to every company

on the market individually.

I just don't believe

that we can't find

someone willing to help.

Our project is so brilliant.

Our team is great too.

I believe there will be good judges of talent.

You're right.

I'll go too.

Don't take this chance to escape.

Get back to

working on your code.

No.

Code and more code.

I've almost become a "dumb horse". [*"Dumb horse" sounds similar to "code".]

Please.

Fine.

I'll bring you out to get a breather.

Zhang Jiang.

You continue to work on it.

Keep working!

I'll...

crack your big head!

Come back!

Brother Jiang.

Calm down, calm down.

Let's go, STAR Student Wu.

Where are we going today?

You've already called me a STAR student.

I feel that I have to

bring you to do solve math problems.

Math problems?

I'm afraid

you'll be defeated by me.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

Godmother, I'm hungry.

No way.

You'll become a little fatty if you keep eating.

Godmother.

I've always thought that godfather and godmother

treat me the best.

So if I don't give you something to eat,

does that mean I'm not treating you well?

What about your brother?

Is he good to you?

Wu Yue is bad too.

He recently won't let me eat cakes either.

Then are you good to him?

Of course.

I'm the one who treats him the best.

Why is that?

Because whenever I have a cake,

I'll always give him half.

Good boy.

Alright.

Go and play for a bit.

Go and play for a bit.

I'll let you eat in a while.

Go on.

Mr. Ren.

It's been a while.

It's been a while.

Have a seat.

What would you like to drink?

No need.

And I'm not Mr. Ren anymore.

I'm sorry.

I...

got you involved.

Mr. Ren.

You also got set up by a villain.

A villain?

Forget it, forget it.

I dug my own grave as well.

Mai Qi,

I'm here today...

Mr. Ren.

I've already

made up my mind.

I'll never go back to the IT industry.

Xiao Que Xing?

As the waves in the Yangtze River drive more waves ahead,

so too will the new generation replace the last.

Mai Qi.

If you wanted to get a new job,

there's no need for such an excuse.

This was Edward's idea.

I really don't want to

work in this industry anymore.

Sometimes,

I'll give these young ones

some advice.

But these young people

have their own ideas.

We older folks

shouldn't interfere.

It's a real pity.

Your exit will indeed be

a great loss for the IT industry.

An excellent HR

like yourself,

with such a high mastery of

IT knowledge

would be

highly sought-after.

Thank you, Mr. Ren, for your compliment.

I'll never forget

Mr. Ren's recognition of my abilities.

However,

my life now

is pretty good too.

I hope Mr. Ren can make a comeback.

Even though we can't continue working together,

but if Mr. Ren

is willing to attend my wedding,

I'd be delighted.

Make a comeback?

Easier said than done.

Go on, go on.

Mai Qi,

You have a child before getting married?

You hid it from me for so long.

What nonsense?

That's my godson.

Godson?

That's right.

He's Wu Yue's younger brother.

(Edward)

Excuse me.

Alright.

I got it.

Mr. Ren.

Edward's asked me to run some errands.

While you're here,

please help yourselfwith

any food or drinks.

It's on me.

Thank you.

I'll leave first.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Sir.

Would you like to order anything?

Cheesecake.

Alright, please wait a moment.

Come on and get it.

Come on, come on, come on.

Give it to me!

Here, here, here.

Take it, take it.

What's up?

Who are you?

Here's some cake for you.

Do you want it?

My brother told me

not to take anything from strangers.

I'm not a stranger.

Your brother Wu Yue,

and your godmother Mai Qi

are my good friends.

And your godmother

asked me to give you this cake.

Really?

She didn't let me eat just now.

I came here

to give your brother

a big surprise.

But I couldn't find him.

What surprise?

If I say it,

it won't be a surprise anymore.

So you mustn't tell him

that I was here.

I won't tell him if you give me the cake.

Give you the cake?

Here, you can have it.

Are we good friends now?

If it's one slice, we're only friends.

You need to give me ten slices to be good friends.

Ten slices?

Alright.

I'll be your good friend for sure.

Right, Tian Tian.

Where do you live?

I'll send that big surprise

directly to your home, okay?

Mr. Ye, take a look

at this project outline.

Mr. Ye,

this app of ours

has a very clear positioning.

The interface is clean and aesthetic.

More importantly,

it has great potential

and can be developed into other derivative products.

I understand all that you're saying.

But

there are too many social networking products.

Maintenance is also difficult.

But our future profits

will also be greater.

It's not that I can't invest.

But I want

fifty-one percent of your shares.

Mr. Ye.

That's daylight robbery.

Go back and discuss

with your other team members.

If, after that,

you change your mind,

you can contact me.

Hello.

I overheard

your conversation earlier.

I'm very interested

in your app.

You are...?

Miss.

Don't be nervous.

I'm the General Manager of Yunt.

(Ding Li)

My name is Ding Li.

I've heard

the initial inspiration

of Xiao Que Xing

was to

confess to Sister Chai Qing.

You just heard about it?

This is in fact

a love story full of ups and downs.

Even though its core

was Sister Xiao Man's algorithm,

if there wasn't

this moving romance behind it,

this app

will lose its warmth.

You're right.

Xiao Man searched so hard

for an application for her algorithm.

Whether to use it to recognize people through dash cams

or the development of confidentiality programs.

You also know

that her romance index isn't too high.

Otherwise, why would she have

chased Wu Yue for so long

and not gotten him,

but completely rebuff

Lin Shao who totally

offered himself to her?

But that's not the point.

The point is

our program,

within just a few days,

attracted half a million users.

Isn't that amazing?

But recently

why hasn't there been an increase?

Do you think something

went wrong?

You're giving me too little credit.

If I wanted to

break five million,

it'd happen within minutes.

Brother Jiang, how would you do that?

That's simple.

I designed a back door.

When I participated in Mad Geek,

I temporarily shut down the download limit.

But once the competition ended,

I reinstated it.

Otherwise,

the glory of getting a million users

would be achieved too easily.

But

why must we have a back door?

To protect it.

What if

it's stolen by investors?

We've got to watch our backs.

Brother Jiang, you're amazing.

Let me guess

what our password is.

If you can guess it,

can it still be called a password?

It must be

Sister Chai Qing's birthday.

Otherwise, why would it be called

a confession app for her?

You're right.

I never thought

you'd bring me here.

I thought...

Thought what?

Thought that you couldn't let go.

I'm just a tourist.

From a tourist's point of view,

this place isn't too bad.

Right?

After spending a day here,

I don't want to get back to work.

Being so slack

isn't your style.

Even a warrior at full HP

will need her rest.

Then...

let's retire together.

Wu Yue.

You're being less and less like you.

You've been slacking off a lot recently.

Even a warrior at full HP

will need his rest.

Wu Yue.

Do you regret

the things that happened?

I do regret,

but I don't either.

If nothing had happened,

I would be

a programmer in Silicon Valley,

crowding in on a bunch of

eccentric global citizens,

eating tangerine chicken,

apple chicken,

pineapple chicken.

But if

none of this had happened,

I wouldn't have known you.

No.

We'd still know each other.

No matter if it's in Los Angeles,

or here,

whether in the present or in the future,

we'd still know each other.

Why?

It's destiny.

Then I wished

that I'd met you in the future.

Why?

Because the past me

wasn't good enough.

(Su Xiao Man: When the sun sets, the stars rise.)

Mom.

Did you miss me?

I miss you too.

I'm going in.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodbye.

Consort Chai.

You're really amazing!

Of course!

When the Goddess does her magic,

things

will fall into her lap.

These few days, Brother Jiang

has given it his all,

writing code all day and night.

All to let investors

have a look

at an even better product.

You've worked hard.

Have we really found an investor?

Of course it's real.

It's a company called Yunt.

A new investment company.

Their general manager is called Ding Li.

Why have I never heard of

this company?

It's a new investment company

and this is their first deal.

What are the specific details?

They will invest

ten million

in exchange for

ten percent of our shares.

Furthermore,

they're willing to give us

free technical support

to help us with server maintenance.

More importantly,

in terms of advertising,

they can also

provide us with connections.

And?

They also said that

if this app

is profitable,

they're willing to

invest even more in the future.

No, this...

These conditions are too good.

Isn't that good?

They've

already transferred the

first sum of money to us.

Look.

(Incoming Transfer 200,000 yuan)

Two hundred thousand.

Even though it's not much,

but after all,

we haven't

shown anything to them yet.

It's enough sincerity.

It's a mutual benefit.

Everyone gains what they need.

We need money now.

They need

their first capital

to prepare for future expansion.

Then...

Then what about Lin Shao?

What did he say?

Lin Shao said we have full powers.

When it's time to sign an agreement,

we'll just get his signature.

Chai Qing.

Are you still able to reach that Ding...

Mr. Ding?

I think it's better

for us to have a talk face to face.

It's not that we're looking for trouble.

It's just that in business,

there are too many of these traps.

I didn't manage to

say everything earlier.

Mr. Ding thought of this much earlier

and also said he wanted to meet you all.

So he asked me to invite all of you

to discuss this further

over a meal.

A meal?

You can't go.

Why not?

Look at your rotten appearance.

What if we spoil his appetite?

Wouldn't that waste our previous efforts?

Thank you.

Mr. Ding.

These are the

people I told you about,

Su Xiao Man and Wu Yue.

I've heard about you.

You're really young heroes.

You're too polite.

Now, it looks like

we're investing in you.

But who knows, after a few years,

we'll be relying on

you young talents.

So

my politeness now

is also our future investment.

Mr. Ding.

I'll get straight to the point.

Why did you

choose Xiao Que Xing?

I'd like to hear from you first.

Why is your Xiao Que Xing

worth investing in?

Everyone knows

that target consumer groups

are categorized based on difficulty.

Women first,

followed by children，

senior citizens,

pets,

and lastly, men.

Our app

captures the largest consumer group,

and even the topmost group:

the young women.

If you ever watched

Mad Geek,

within that short competition period,

our user base

increased multiple folds.

Effective market expansion

is essential.

Combining technical skills,

the market,

and sales elements

effectively,

our app

already has good results

that can prove our capability.

What a great pitch.

Fantastic.

So

I must invest

in an app like this.

I'll invest a lot into this.

But

the conditions that you offered

were too good.

It exceeded our expectations.

I think

Chai Qing has

also told you about this.

Yunt

has just taken off.

We urgently need a successful portfolio.

In my opinion,

Xiao Que Xing is the best choice.

I am very, very impressed with it.

It will definitely succeed.

To be frank,

ten million

is not a small sum.

But

for a company of our size,

it

is not a sum that we can't afford.

Think about it.

Spending a small sum

in exchange for a great reputation.

Isn't this

a hugely advantageous deal?

One last question.

Can we take a look at the agreement?

The company isn't

my solo venture.

So

we have to let our engineers

take a look at the program

before we draw up the contract.

It's just a formality.

I hope you little friends

can understand.

Of course.

But that 200,000...

That 200,000

is my

personal investment.

Feel free to spend it.

There are no legal obligations.

How was the talk?

It can't be even better.

Mr. Ding said

when their engineers

have reviewed our program,

they will

immediately sign the contract with us.

He was indeed sincere.

I have no objections either.

That's great.

Then did they say

when exactly it would be?

It hasn't been confirmed.

We'll know after two days.

Just thinking of having to spend two more days here

makes me want to die.

You've worked hard these few days.

Let Xiao Man and me

take over this time.

You and Chai Qing can head back to rest.

I already can't wait

to return to the embrace of my beloved bed.

Sleeping on this sofa

is causing me back problems.

Beloved bed?

Gross.

Then I'll leave first.

What about

I give you a ride home?

Really?

I'm just afraid you'll suddenly die on the roadside.

Are you coming or not?

We're leaving.

Bye-bye.

Bye.

Let me pour some water for you.
