Slow down.

Brother.

Play with me.

Play with me.

I'm busy. You go out and play.

Come on.

I'll buy you a lollipop. Go out and play.

I'm not a bad person.

I will buy you candy.

Go out and play.

Come on.

(Letter of resignation)

Letter of resignation.

Resignation letter!

Keep it down. Come here.

Grandpa.

My brother is quitting again.

He is writing a resignation letter.

I saw it!

Let's go.

Quitting again?

You don't understand. There's a bit of a misunderstanding this time.

What misunderstanding?

Your lady boss had a crush on you,

you refused

and she got mad and took revenge on you?

That's not it.

You are half right.

Does she really fancy you?

No, I mean the other half.

She likes you.

Mum, what did I say?

I'm sure it won't last a month.

Who bet with me before?

Admit your defeat.

Pay me now.

Mum.

Why don't you set an example first?

Fine.

Grandma, you...

This is your fault.

You are a disappointment.

Here.

Okay. Thanks, mum.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Baby, pay up.

Here's my money for marshmallows.

This is Yuanqi's fault.

Take it up with him.

You two young brats learnt bad examples.

You are not too young either,

yet you're not working hard.

That's right.

Pay up.

Why did you resign this time?

Last time your uncle introduced you to a job.

Wasn't it a good one?

More money, less work and close to home.

You quit after only two months.

Don't mention it.

I'm pissed off.

I've sent many gifts. I've done favours

and drank a lot of alcohol

to get the job for him,

yet this brat just decided to quit.

My card buddy's daughter

works there.

She can go to work every day if she wants to,

but if she doesn't, no one cares.

She can even take time off whenever she wants.

It's not even a decent company.

Exactly.

You don't understand.

Why don't I get it?

I'm at least a business owner.

I have five storefronts and two hotels

in the shopping street of Xiaozhou Village.

I make as much money as your boss.

I don't think the job

you found is any better.

See how quick you quit!

How come you can't

hold a job for long after graduation?

Mum, you're wrong to say that.

Yuanqi didn't find

a good job,

but he was a high achiever

from a major university.

Exactly.

He is the only university student

in the Zhang family.

Yes.

I think

you need to have a skill to find a job.

Yes, she's right.

Even if you don't have the skills,

you can still have a good head on your shoulders.

Look at that boy

from the Wang family next door.

He learnt business from his father

before he finished junior high school

and now he's a big boss.

He just renovated his villa

and is getting married next month.

So,

Wang's grandson is getting married?

Yes.

Yuanqi, you have to get a grip.

Or I won't get a great-grandson

until I'm in my grave.

Look at your sister,

who graduated from secondary school.

She has no literacy,

yet manages to run a homestay, earn rent income

and live a good life.

Now look at you.

What are you up to

all day long?

Mum.

Yuanqi is busy with work.

Busy with work?

What has he achieved then?

I shouldn't have agreed with you

to let him study painting,

art

and all that nonsense in the first place.

Exactly.

Why are you blaming me?

When Yuanqi

was so good at drawing,

I didn't see you stopping him.

I just felt sorry for my grandson.

Yuanqi.

Why don't you stop working

and stay home with me

to collect rent?

I have money.

I'll provide for you.

I want to give you

the row of shophouses on

Second Street, Xiaozhou Village.

Thank you, mum.

Stop it.

No, thanks.

I don't want your house.

You can leave it for someone in need.

I won't quit my job, I...

I...

I'll try to do my best

to at least finish the job.

I'm full. Excuse me.

The shophouses in Xiaozhou Village you mentioned...

Mum.

You should support

these two grandchildren, too.

Mum, I need you more, not him.

Mum.

What are you talking about?

Eat up.

He's the eldest grandson who will take care of you.

You have to support him.

I'll leave him to you.

You're awake.

Why are you so drowsy lately?

I don't know why,

but I've been sleepy lately.

Really?

Are you feeling weak?

You should exercise more

if you don't have enough energy.

I'll help you.

Really?

What are you doing?

Nothing.

What are you thinking?

I just want to ask you a few questions.

Stop it.

What do you want to ask?

How many women have you had before?

Only a few.

I bet they're all pretty.

They just look like normal people.

And which one of them

is the most beautiful?

What exactly do you want to know?

What are their personalities like?

The personality of common people.

What about my personality?

♪When the night shines♪

♪I'm holding out♪

Mrs. Qiu.

Have you received any resignations

from the Human Resources Department?

Yes.

Good.

It's

Zhang Qi who has resigned.

Zhang Qi?

Zhang Qi resigned?

Yes, I thought you were asking about her.

Why did she resign?

She said that she had been given an offer

at the University of Singapore.

So she had to quit her job to go to graduate school.

Mrs. Qiu, do you have any questions?

Zhang Qi is indeed the most capable

of the new recruits.

Do you need me to inform HR...

No need.

It's good that she's pursuing her studies.

Don't we have a meeting at 3.30pm?

I came to remind you that.

Let's go to the meeting.

Okay.

On-site execution of this season's product fair

will be handled by Zhang Yuanqi from the marketing department.

In the past, we used to get

a group of part-time university students to do

all these chores for our product promotions.

This time, the company

didn't allocate a part-time job,

which is obviously making things difficult for you.

This mall

is the most crowded place in the area.

You're going to wear yourself out

if you work here all day.

It's just simple executive tasks.

Nothing difficult. I'll just do it

and get familiar with the workflow.

Are you alone?

I have over 200 boxes of goods.

Didn't your company send more people over to help?

You can go to the counter to register for membership,

where there is air conditioning.

Can you do it alone?

No problem.

Sir.

Can I borrow your gloves?

This is our newest

lactic acid sports drink,

which has been self-certified by

the US Food Safety Council.

It is made with Lactobacillus plantarum TWK10.

We have conducted

both animal studies and two double-blind controlled human trials

under strict specifications in line with

global food safety certification.

Tests have shown that

low doses of TWK10

can enhance liver glucose uptake

and improve glucose utilisation in the body.

After we exercise,

our muscles feel sore and painful.

This drink helps to reduce

the discomfort of lactic acid build-up after exercise,

thus enhancing performance.

If you like it,

you can queue up here and scan the code to buy.

You are amazing.

We have exceeded our target today.

In the past,

this would have been the workload of a dozen people.

Are you tired?

I see you've worked so hard today

and haven't even eaten yet.

I'll go back and eat after work.

Let me do it.

The marketing department did a good job

at the product promotion yesterday.

Keep it up.

Okay, meeting adjourned.

Remember to put away your rubbish

after eating in the meeting room.

You came early today.

Do you know that yesterday...

What?

Don't you recognise me anymore?

Zaozao.

I knew

I could count on you to take care of it.

You take good care of it.

Cats and people are different.

Aren't you going to ask me how I've been doing?

How have you been these past few years?

I'm not doing well.

A lot happened.

I miss having my sister...

Can we stop

talking about the past?

Sorry.

I didn't give it much thought.

I've travelled through the day and night to get here.

I didn't expect it to be hot.

Can I have some water from this cup?

Not that cup.

I don't know this cup is...

I'll get you some water.

Have a seat.

Have you been living here for the past few years?

It's quite artsy here.

It's very much your style.

Can I take a look around?

Is there

a greenhouse upstairs too?

Hello, Xiao Han is busy

and can't answer the phone.

Is there anything you need me to convey to him?

Who are you?

I am Qin Zao.

Hello.

What do you have to say to Xiao Han?

Nothing.

I just want you to tell him

to wash my socks

and I'll pick them up tomorrow.

Okay.

I'll hang up then.

Wait.

Who are you?

I am He Ran.

I mean who are you to Xiao Han?

Just look at my name on his phone

and you'll see.

(Favourite Child)

Okay.

I got it.

Now you know who I am.

Would you like to meet me?

Sure.

Thank you.

Well,

there was a girl called He Ran

who rang you just now.

(Xiao Han)

Hello?

Did you just call me?

Qin Zao is her younger sister.

I see.

Don't get the wrong idea.

When are you coming over tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

I'm not free tomorrow.

You said you were coming over tomorrow.

I was telling it to her.

Childish.

Don't overthink it.

I won't.

Aren't the two of us

having a blast right now?

Come over tomorrow.

Why?

I miss you.

I miss you, too.

Then I will go to you now.

Okay.

Xiao Han.

What are you doing here?

Quanquan's birthday is in a few days.

I'm preparing some small gifts for her.

I'll send them out later.

Quanquan's birthday?

Why didn't you tell me?

I want to give her a gift, too.

I'll go shopping with you

and send them out together.

Buying gifts is so meaningless.

I'll paint her a picture.

Do you still have painting materials at home?

No.

Then let's buy some.

We'll go to the supermarket then.

No, common supermarkets don't have them.

How about this? I've got a place in mind.

I'll take you there.

Come on.

I remember a rainy day when someone

crouched in front of my house

on the pretence that she couldn't find

her keys at the studio.

You don't understand.

This key is magical.

What magic?

When I come here alone,

I can't find it,

but when I come with the one I love,

I can find it.

I can't find it when I'm unhappy,

but I can find it when I'm happy.

Isn't this magical?

You are more magical.

The studio is busier during the summer break

and after the holidays, it becomes rather quiet.

So the principal uses it as her collection room.

Inside, there are many paintings from her collection

and her favourites.

There are a lot of painting tools there.

Be careful not to step on them.

What do you think of this painting?

It's nice.

However, I think

this fairy is too beautiful.

If the fairy is not beautiful,

how can she seduce Sanzang?

You drew Journey to the West.

Don't get sidetracked.

As the saying goes,

"If I die under a skirt, I can still flirt as a ghost."

If I want to be in love,

I'm not afraid of anyone.

What are you looking at?

You're so absorbed in it.

Is this a picture of me?

Who drew this?

You only came to be a model once,

yet someone was so obsessed with you.

Let's go.

I'm not leaving.

This is only half done.

I have to help her.

Why don't you

sit still

and be my model.

Don't move.

You

don't

stand

a chance.

Why are you competing with a painting?

Wait.

Let me see.

This doesn't seem to be quite like you.

Looks pretty similar to me.

No.

There's something missing.

The person who drew this

has absolutely no idea about your structure.

Look.

Skeletal structures, such as

the chin,

neck,

collarbone

and pectoral muscles.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

I am doing academic research.

And your waist.

You pull so many tricks

to take advantage of me.

♪So I'm giving in♪

You can even publish a book.

If I was to publish a book,

you'd have to write the preface for me.

What preface?

"I have

personally tested it

to be effective."
