[Episode 19]

[Hongrun Chenghua]

What will the interviewer

at your workplace be like?

Can you tell us about that?

She's quite casual.

You've already passed the first and second round of interview.

Now that you're interviewing with her,

it's just to see if your personality is compatible with her team.

My boss said

interviews depend on fate.

All the candidates who can get to the final round are elites.

What we'd talk about at the final round

would be your values, the way you work,

and your bottom line.

She said in a team,

synergy is key.

Do you have any further questions?

If there's anything you want to know,

just ask.

I think you are

dressed quite casually.

I thought people in private funds

would have to wear formal clothes.

There's no need.

Our boss

is very casual.

We keep our dressing style very simple.

I like that too.

Simple and casual.

This is what we do here.

Any other questions?

No.

That's all for our interview

today.

I hope I will get

to see you again.

I hope what you hope will come true.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I've had it.

I don't need it anymore in the future too.

How are you going home tonight?

I'm driving.

Isn’t he coming to pick you up?

You mean Lu Chen?

He's in Tianwen this month. He can't return.

No wonder your dad doesn’t agree.

Your boyfriend

is as good as an illusion,

We've known each other for so many years.

You should know that

I don't like to discuss

private matters.

I thought after studying abroad for many years,

now that we came back to start a business together,

we would be at least close friends.

Friends?

Your boyfriend cares about this?

My fiance doesn't.

I do.

He has high requirements

when it comes to relationships.

I don't want him to be unhappy.

To keep giving in in a relationship

is not

a good way of getting along, you know?

I'm not giving in.

It's sincerity.

I have high requirements

when it comes to relationships too.

He can do the same as me.

What if he's just putting on a show.

No way.

I talked too much just now.

Sorry.

It's fine.

I said too much.

Let's not discuss

personal issues anymore.

This is the boundary

between me and male friends.

Okay.

I just got off work.

I'm exhausted.

Maybe I talked too much

and drank too little water.

I've been interviewing today.

Be careful next time.

There's no one to make breakfast for me anymore.

I've packed them in the fridge for you.

There are seven kinds.

You can take them out

and heat it up.

Where are you calling me from?

The only place with an outdoor phone.

The training base.

So you can't take photos.

Of course.

Are you sick?

No, I choked on water.

The season's changing now.

Be careful not to catch a cold.

Okay.

I'm going to sleep.

Say something nice.

For example,

you miss me.

My colleague aren't too far away.

They can hear me.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Why are you laughing?

Are you laughing at me?

No.

All right.

I'm going to sleep.

Go back to your dorm.

Wait.

Say something

you're not afraid of them hearing.

Forget it.

I do miss you.

I guess you have a conscience.

Me too.

I'm going to bed.

Good night.

Good night.

Bye.

Bye.

Oh no, Instructor Lu.

Your wife has you wrapped around her little finger.

It's not a good habit

to eavesdrop on others' phone calls.

I'm not eavesdropping.

I came here to look for you

and accidentally overheard it.

What did you say? "I do miss you"?

I'll pretend I didn't hear it.

What is it?

It's nothing.

My former master

Shen Jie

said he saw you when he was in Qining.

And you even helped him.

Do you remember?

Mr. Shen.

Yes.

He asked me for an abandoned bomb

and some information.

Yes, that's right.

We just talked on the phone.

I told him

you were here too.

He asked me to say hello to you.

Please say hello to him for me too.

He's doing pretty well now.

After retirement,

he got employed at this civil explosives company.

Speaking of which,

I remember

a few days ago, my boss told me

that an area

that belongs to Qining

has been promoted to a city status recently.

He wants to build

a special force himself there.

But there's no explosives team,

so we can only transfer personnel over.

We wanted to borrow some from your team

but it was

stopped by that vice captain

of yours,

Qin Mingyu.

He never mentioned about that.

He probably did that in consideration of you.

He doesn't want you to stay too far away from home.

So he took

this job himself.

All right, I'm leaving.

Rest early.

Okay.

Zhong.

Sit.

As to your marriage application,

I have a request.

Captain,

just go ahead with it.

What request could there be between you and me?

It's not for you,

but for your wife.

After you leave,

I'm afraid we'd be short-handed.

Ask your wife

if she can do us a favor

and move over to Qining after the marriage.

I'll personally pay

for your wedding venue.

That's no problem.

But you don't have to pay for the wedding venue.

I'll book it myself.

Ask your wife.

She already said

if I still can't take any

leaves this year,

she will just move over for the marriage.

You have to ask even so.

Ask seriously.

Sit.

This is a big thing

between you two.

Be serious.

Respect your other half.

There's a reason

why marriages fail.

You can't just assume

that your other half has to give unconditionally

just because of how

highly your career is.

They are also their

parents' precious daughter.

If they're willing to be with

someone like you who has a dangerous job,

they must be a good lady.

To a good lady...

You can't continue, can you?

Continue mopping the floor.

I'm hungry. Let me go have some food.

Lu?

I have something to say.

A conversation between

between two SWAT captains

is most likely confidential.

Is that something you can listen to?

Remember to call your wife

tonight.

This is an order.

Yes.

Close the door.

I see someone still remembers

their brother in Qining.

You applied to transfer to the new city?

You are well-informed, Captain Lu.

It's called Gonghai City.

It's a new mission.

Qining has many missions.

If you leave,

what about the other side?

I'm asking you.

About what?

Are you afraid I can't handle it?

You can handle it.

It's the truth.

That's right.

As a captain,

I can handle these.

Besides,

you've been transferred.

Don't worry about things here.

I know your situation.

There are many missions this year.

We're short-handed.

Of course there are difficulties.

I can solve my own problem,

right?

Lu Yanchen.

There are so many cities in this country.

There are hundreds of experts.

You are never the best.

There will always be someone better than you.

Just stay here

in Tianwen.

Don't worry about Qining.

There's no need.

Oh right,

I happen to be

thinking about something these days

and wanted to talk to you about it.

In the future,

if you get married and have kids,

I'll arrange for Xiaonan

to live alone.

To stay in a boarding school

I'll take care of Qin Xiaonan for you.

It's not important.

The higher-ups asked for me

but you insisted on going in my stead.

You are in the wrong for that.

They did ask for you.

But I'm closer.

I should be the one going anyway.

It's within my responsibilities

and is my job, okay?

Call me if you need anything.

Of course.

I’m not going to die.

Lu Yanchen, Captain Lu.

We used to go between

life and death so much in the past.

I've never seen you so longwinded.

I'll rebel if you keep talking.

I'm hanging up.

Maybe I’ve been your captain for years

so I feel like a parent.

Get lost.

Don't take advantage of me.

Has my son been good?

Yes.

He hasn't been disturbing

your life, has he?

To be honest,

if you find it inconvenient,

I'll rent him a house.

No need.

Qin Xiaonan is more sensible than you.

Gui Xiao likes him.

You

brought my son back.

But your wife

has no objections to it.

Cherish her.

You don't need to

remind me to

cherish my wife.

All right, I'm hanging up.

I'm in someone else's team,

I can't speak for too long.

I'm hanging up. Stay safe.

Wait.

Put me on speaker,

I'll say hello to your other colleagues.

Hello, everyone from Tianwen.

I'm Qin Mingyu, an explosive expert

from Qining.

I am good at bomb disposal.

If there's a chance,

let's learn from each other in the future.

Cut the crap.

I'm hanging up.

Wait.

Let me ask you one more thing.

Go ahead.

What does Duan Rou like?

She doesn't want anything.

Yet helps me take care of my son.

I should get them

a gift, right?

I don't know either.

It's rare for me to beg you.

I've only met her once.

Rather than asking me,

you should probably ask your son.

You're right.

I can't count on you anymore.

Okay, I'm hanging up.

Bye.

Bastard.

It's late.

I'm not sleepy.

After talking to master on the phone,

I feel like I'm wasted.

Now that I think about it, I can't sleep.

So I came here.

You made this?

Well,

this is really well-made.

How did you make it?

I've never seen this before.

I couldn't find anything about it on the internet.

Where did you learn it from?

This is the latest model.

It's only been used on the battlefield

these two years.

I just looked at some blueprints,

translated them,

and made them myself.

Tell me more about

how you made

this detonator?

Sure.

I can't sleep anyway.

We can go through this slowly.

What's wrong?

Is something bothering you?

Let's talk about something else.

It's not exactly bothering me.

I've been to

the new city.

I know it better than him.

The higher-ups

wanted me to go there.

They must've considered this.

You still can't let go?

You want to go?

I’m just a little worried.

I’m not Lu Yanchen.

I have a bad temper.

If you say something

you'd get scolded for,

think it through over ten times

in your mind before you say it.

You're obviously feeling guilty.

What did we say?

Do you need to say anything.

Look at your faces.

We just need a red backdrop,

and set up a stage,

and we can immediately hold

a performance for

the Qining Police

Chinese New Year gala.

Officer Qin,

you are sharp-tongued.

No girls can stand it.

No wonder you got divorced.

But Officer Qin,

men who had divorced

are the most despised.

They must think

you have a bad personality.

So you must find

someone nice if you are getting remarried.

Don't get divorced again.

Let's make this a rule in the future.

No talking when I'm eating.

Luckily, I'm leaving soon.

It'll be quiet.

You said you weren't familiar with that place.

Why did you insist on going?

I knew you would talk about that.

Zhong.

Are you done with your food?

Go practice.

Yes.

Me leaving

is a good practice

for you.

Captain Lu is indeed capable.

We can't rely on him for everything.

He has worked hard

for Qining for so many years

and just got transferred over.

He's getting familiar with the things over there.

It takes time.

It'd be fine if it's in the past,

but this year, our city has attracted some foreign investment.

We have many meetings

and political missions.

If you leave, we–

Alright.

I've decided.

In one minute,

write as much as you can.

Take it.

Remember the colors

and the numbers in the color.

Stop.

Tick the colored boxes

and the numbers in the color.

What's wrong with you today?

You sneeze every few words.

I would get allergies

when the willows bloom.

I shan't go in.

It will affect

everyone's eating.

They're almost done eating.

We're going to our next stop.

There's a next stop?

Yes.

They are now

the most popular enterprise.

Everyone wants to invest in it.

They don't even have

enough time to meet

investment companies like us.

If it weren't for your mother,

we wouldn't have had the chance to have a meal with them.

My mom didn't make much money,

but has a lot of friends.

We are

stickler for rules.

I heard that Dongxin

has been taking care of

them well, eating and drinking with them everyday.

In private,

they are closer to each other.

A lot has been taken care of.

I guess

if we don't give them some practical benefits,

we can't win the competition.

There's a bottom line.

Bottom line.

I know.

I'm just complaining.

If you really want me to drink with them,

I might get drunk after two glasses.

I'm afraid

we can't invest even if we have the money

in their third round of financing?

If we can't invest in this round,

let's just wait for the next round.

If this project is gone,

we'll just wait for other projects.

But if we go past our bottom line once,

it'll be hard

to get it back.

Okay, Ms. Chicken Soup for the Soul.

What chicken soup?

This is experience.

I lived ten more years than you did,

I didn't live in vain.

Did you write calligraphy when you were young?

Yes.

My dad used to force me to practice it cause he likes it.

When we were young,

we would get ink on our hands

when writing calligraphy.

I know that it's dirty and black

and just want to clean them off.

If someone stops me,

I might even get angry at them.

After I've grown up,

since you already knew it was black,

why did you go after it?

Why are you looking at me?

I didn't grab the ink-stone.

Me neither.

My boss mentored me.

I can't take it anymore.

I'm about to cry.

Go get it checked.

Get some relief spray.

You will feel bad if you keep sneezing.

Fine.

I'll go in and say goodbye.

I'll go with you.

I have to go to the hospital

to get my mom's discharge form anyway.

Okay, wait for me.

I've never seen you play games.

I used to play games in college.

Then I stopped playing.

My friends seem to

be all playing this nowadays.

So I wanted to take a look.

We investors

should have foresight.

Look, just like blind boxes.

No one cared about it at first.

But it suddenly became popular overnight.

No one invested in it in its initial stages.

Now, everyone's looking for them with money

yet they don't necessarily want it anymore.

You're so smart, boss.

I'm going to get the report.

Wait for me here.

It's a big place. Don't run around.

Okay.

Have you been feeling tired recently?

Unwell?

You get allergic reactions easily?

But I'm get allergies every spring.

It's an old problem.

Just prescribe some medicine for me.

My nose feels uncomfortable.

I keep sneezing.

It affects my work.

If it doesn't affect your work,

you won't come to see the doctor?

It's just a minor problem.

I will recover soon.

It's not a big problem,

but we need to take it seriously.

Besides,

I can't prescribe just any medicine for you.

As to what medication

and what prescription I give,

I'd need your permission.

You're a professional.

I'll use

whatever you ask me to use.

Are you married now?

I'm engaged.

But

he doesn't get allergies like this.

And we haven't seen each other

for more than a month.

Is it contagious?

That's not what I meant.

Miss, you seem to be pregnant.

Don't you know that?

But we are

not the gynae here.

I inferenced this

based on

your blood test report.

How about this?

Go to the

gynae now.

You still have time.

With a few more checks.

we should be able to confirm it.

The gynae?

Yes.

It's on the fourth floor.

Thank you.

I'll prescribe your medication

to you according to

what should be given to pregnant women.

Go back and see if it works.

If it works well,

you can come to me for more anytime.

What's wrong?

Is there something on your mind?

No.

It's just that

I came to get a spray prescribed

cause of my allergies.

It's not ready for this yet.

Surprised?

Shocked?

Both.

Hello.

The doctor said

you're going to the gynae

and was afraid you couldn't find it

so she asked me to show you the way.

I'm not going to go for now.

Thank you.

Okay.

You got it?

Is it serious?

No.

I really want to eat and drink to my fill now.

Where is

the best restaurant nearby?

The one we just just bought our client

a meal at

is the best place

onn Yonghe Palace Street.

You kept sneezing and didn't eat.

It’s a pity.

Duan Rou,

Gui Xiao has been eating nonstop,

what's going on?

There can only be two reasons.

They are extremely happy

or extremely unhappy.

Which one is she?

When one is extremely unhappy,

they won't be picky.

They eat whatever they see.

When one is extremely happy,

they will consider their figure

and won't touch meat.

For example,

duck that makes you fat the most easily.

Don't worry.

I'm very happy.

I guessed it.

Well done.

You've gotten a lot better

at observing other's feelings.

Are you there? Squeak if you are.

I'm not a rat.

I think I'm pregnant.

I haven't gone to the gynae yet.

I want to wait for when you return

so we can know the answer together.

Calm down.

It's okay.

I just wanted to say hi.

Get back to work.

I miss you exceptionally much today.

The bed and I are waiting for you.

Watch what you say next time.

Same to you.

Why are you still here?

I thought you were going back to Beijing.

I've been busy all day,

I'm going to go take a shower.

Go home and take the shower.

Why do you look like

a young kid who just got in a relationship?

You're afraid your wife will find you dirty?

See you next week.

You're back.

Go memorize a model essay after eating.

Hey.

I bought chicken, potatoes

and oven.

I also bought lamb, beef,

and spices.

Make us chicken stew

tonight.

And also barbecue skewers.

Chicken stew?

Have you had it before?

Yes.

But I've never made it before.

It shouldn't be difficult.

We used to think

you were a man

without tears.

But after entering this door,

you'll roll up your sleeves

and do housework.

You haven't seen each other for a long time.

Stop arguing.

Go up and memorise the model essay.

You...

go to the kitchen with me.

I have cooked it for you.

I thought you would come back dirty.

You've been away for more than 30 days.

I don't know where

you went rolling around.

I showered before coming back.

No wonder.

You smell good.

Be careful.

Don't drop the thing in your hand.

You're acting cool.

You don't like it?

You bought it without asking me.

It's okay if you don't like it.

I can buy it again next year.

If you still don't like it,

I can buy it again the year after next.

When the time comes,

and hang them around your neck.

When you get old, no one will have more rings than you.

Try the size.

What about yours?

Why are you wearing it now?

It's convenient.

I'm self-aware.

You deserve praise.

It’s inconvenient for you to leave the base.

How did you buy it?

I looked up the style

I wanted to buy on the Internet.

And

estimated your ring size.

And asked my boss

to bring a pair back from the city.

Why bother your boss?

You're coming back today,

we could've bought it tonight.

I wanted to put it on first.

Let me take another look.

Why did you put the ring

in your pocket?

How did you know I could touch it?

When I was cooking in the past,

you always liked to

hug me from behind

and put your hand in my pocket.

This is your habit.

You're so sly.

I know you too well.

I'll cook first.

The chicken soup is almost ready.

Hold on.

I wanted to

tell you this tonight.

I think

I'm pregnant.

Really?

Why aren't you saying anything?

♫I want to watch the sunrise with you♫

♫I close my eyes and make a wish♫

The air in the kitchen is bad.

Let's talk over there.

♫Your shadow becomes further with the long road♫

How did you find out?

♫It becomes the truth of my empty dream♫

I found it by accident.

But I haven't

done the final check.

I wanted to wait for you.

♫Love is the gentle looks of a youth♫

Are you feeling unwell?

♫Be bolder, come closer♫

No.

♫You are the curtain call speech for my youth♫

How did you know?

I went to another department for a blood test.

♫You are everything on my tiny planet♫

The doctor speculated it.

Let me tell you, it's amazing.

My mom called me

two days ago.

She said she dreamed of me giving birth.

How could she dream of that?

I've been sickly since I was young.

I often went to the hospital.

You know that.

I've never been fine.

My mom used to be

worried about me.

She's so happy now.

Are you happy?

You're not doing anything

nor did you get excited.

I turned off the fire.

You can't do this.

You can cook after kissing.

You don't have to be so surprised.

I'm thinking about the marriage application.

How should I plan the wedding?

Do I have leaves?

We have to go to the hospital tomorrow

and confirm it.

See how many months has it been.

The first three months

are the most critical.

I can drive back

from Tianwen everyday.

But I can't return when I'm on a shift.

There's also only Xiaonan at home.

I'm worried.

Are you already

thinking of

what diapers brand

your future child would wear?

♫Hey, what day is it today?♫

I finally know

you're happy.

♫Can I see you?♫

Your expression just now

scared me to death.

♫Let the heartbeat continue 110♫

It's my first time being a father.

♫It's so troublesome♫

I can't help being panicked.

♫You haven't got up yet♫

I feel much better now.

♫You didn't see my message♫

♫Did anyone tell you♫

If you keep hugging me,

you'll starve.

♫I miss you very much♫

Give me two more minutes.

♫Love is in vogue♫

♫You still need to be quiet♫

♫Even the moon is awakened♫

♫Even meteors stop♫

♫Love songs are popular♫

♫I'll sing for you♫

♫We need to cultivate our relationship♫

♫I believe you can do it♫

Here comes the skewers.

♫Hey, what day is it today?♫

♫Can I see you?♫

♫Let the heartbeat continue 110♫

♫It's so troublesome♫

♫You haven't got up yet♫

♫You didn't see my message♫

♫Did anyone tell you♫

♫I miss you very much♫

♫Love is in vogue♫

My eyes are starting to hurt.

♫You need to be quiet♫

What are you mumbling about?

♫Even the moon is awakened♫

Nothing.

I'm memorising.

♫Even meteors stop♫

I haven't seen my father

♫Love songs are popular♫

for more than two years.

♫I'll sing for you♫

What I can't forget the most

is his back.

♫We need to cultivate our relationship♫

That winter,

Grandmother died.

♫I believe you can do it♫

Father...

They're learning things like this in elementary school?

♫Love songs are popular♫

It's junior high syllabus.

♫You need to be quiet♫

He found it on my bookshelf

and liked it after reading it. So he's memorizing it.

♫Even the moon is awakened♫

I think it's good.

It can expand the amount of things he reads.

♫Even meteors stop♫

You can use it in the future too.

When I was

♫Love songs are popular♫

very young,

I read all kinds of books

on my place's bookshelf.

♫I'll sing for you♫

When I was six,

♫We need to cultivate our relationship♫

I've already read the Classic Chinese Novels.

My favorite is Journey to the West

♫I believe you can do it♫

and the Three Kingdoms

Many books from the past were in Traditional Chinese.

So just like this,

I learned it without any classes.

I can read the words.

But honestly,

I don't really understand the content.

But when I was seven,

I read it again.

♫Hey, what day is it today?♫

It was better.

Gradually,

♫Can I see you?♫

I read it a few more times,

and understood everything.

♫Let the heartbeat continue 110♫

There's a reason

why you're so good at studying.

♫It's so troublesome♫

Thank you.

♫You haven't got up yet♫

♫You didn't see my message♫

Let's watch a movie.

♫Did anyone tell you♫

You pick.

♫I miss you very much♫

I'll look for it.

♫Love is in vogue♫

The second one.

♫You still need to be quiet♫

♫Even the moon is awakened♫

♫Even meteors stop♫

♫Love songs are popular♫

♫I'll sing for you♫

♫We need to cultivate our relationship♫

♫I believe you can do it♫
