Mr. Jin, take your time.

Take a good look.

I've sent you a copy this morning.

They're the same.

Sijia will keep in touch with you.

After your wife is discharged,

please tell us the cost
of the hospital bills.

Once we've checked the amount,

we will transfer the money
to your account.

You may think about it.

It's okay.

There's no need.

Where do I sign?

Right here.

Right.

Can you delete that recording?

Of course, there's no point in keeping it.

There's one more.

Can I go?

I'll walk you out, Mr. Jin.

Get back to work.

I'll see Mr. Jin off.

It's easier to get in here than out.

This way, please.

Here, Mr. Jin.

Take care, Mr. Jin.

You're always welcome here.

Don't worry. I won't be back.

Yes.

She has to give us an explanation.

They're here. It's her.

-Mr. Jin.
-Mr. Jin.

Did you sign a settlement with them?

-Did they force you?
-It's her.

The woman in the video.

What are you doing here?

Ever since Jin posted online,

we've been paying attention.

We support Mr. Jin. Protect his rights!

That's right, Jin. Don't be afraid.

Just sue them.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Calm down, everyone. Calm down.

We have settled everything
regarding the incident.

We've worked it out peacefully.

Peacefully, my ass.

You big companies are bullies.

-Yes.
-No.

That's right.

Is this you in the video?

How dare you threaten his wife and child?

That's not true.

That's not what happened.

Where is this video from?

-Where?
-This morning.

A righteous individual posted
it on our website.

-Right.
-No, Mr. Jin.

Explain it to them.

That wasn't the case.

-Right?
-Yes, that's right.

-Yes.
-Let me help her explain.

Let me make this clear.

First, I didn't record that video

and I didn't post it online.

I have nothing to do with it.

Ms. Shen.

Even though I made a deal with you,

I don't have to speak for you.

To be honest,

I hate you a lot.

I hate your company very much.

From now on, we're done.

As for whether you've threatened me,

you know the truth.

My friends.

It's not easy to save up and buy a car.

-Listen to Mr. Jin. It's her.
-That's her.

-That's her.
-That's her.

-Let me explain.
-It's her.

Can't you people be reasonable?

Serves you right. You're evil.

-You deserve this.
-Listen.

You have to explain it to us

or we won't let you go.

-We need an explanation.
-Explain.

-Explain.
-We need an explanation.

We need an explanation.

You threatened other people's children.

You're too arrogant.

-That's right.
-You're shameless.

-Explain.
-We need an explanation.

-Give us our money back.
-Explain.

Go away.

What are you doing?

Do you enjoy ganging up on a woman?

Aren't you ashamed?

I'll call the police if you don't stop.

-Do you believe me?
-Go ahead.

-Go ahead.
-Go ahead.

-Who's that?
-What does he do?

POOR QUALITY CARS

TIMER

TIMER ENDS

Qi Xiao.

Is Ruoxin inside?

I heard that someone threw water at her.

I brought her clothes and shoes.

It has been ten minutes.

Go inside. I'm worried.

But what should I say?

You're both girls.

Go inside and comfort her. Hurry up.

But she's my boss.

Hurry up.

Ruoxin.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

It's just cola, not acid.

Thank you for this.

Create a post online right now.

We need to set the record straight.

And find out who posted the video.

Who started the rumor?

What do those people want?

It must be Jin Yuanhao.

No, he didn't know we were coming,

so he couldn't have set that up.

That's right.

Jin Yuanhao called us because
he didn't want things to get out of hand.

He has no motive.

Ms. Shen.

I watched the video many times.

You're always at the center.

I think they're targeting you.

You can take a look.

It was posted anonymously.

I looked into that user.

His account was created a few days ago.

And this is his only post.

I think he is up to no good.

I know an expert in computer science.

If you need it,
I can ask him to look into this.

We might find clues.

All right, Qi Xiao.

You're in charge of this post.

Keep an eye on what this person does next.

Meanwhile, ask your friend.

Find out who started the rumor.

-Okay.
-Sijia.

Contact the PR Department now.

Draft a response letter immediately.

-Be quick.
-Okay.

Go.

I was terrified.

She acts as if nothing has happened.

She's so tough.

She's not just tough.

That's not normal.

Why is that not normal?

That's too rational for a woman

that it's not human.

You're the one that's not human.

Should women hide in the corner and cry?

Who did this then?

If it's against our company,
what's the purpose?

What's his next move?

Liu Pei.

I've told you.

That woman…

She has long hair, but short sight.

She has the brains, but is that enough?

Jin Yuanhao wanted two million.

Yes, he asked for too much.

But they're making such a fuss
for just two million.

We're in the spotlight now.

That's not good.

Liu Pei.

If word gets out

to the headquarters

to Mr. Zhang,

that'll be bad.

This long-haired, but short-sighted woman.

How is she so--

This is bad.

This is bad.

The video of Shen Ruoxin is trending.

"Legal Officer
Who Threatened Car Owner Got Splashed.

It Was Delightful."

You can see for yourself.

Qi Xiao.

This is our response to the PR Department.

Deliver it later.

-Okay.
-Here, pay attention.

Qi Xiao.

There's a rule for new employees.

There will be a welcome party tonight.
Don't leave after work.

Okay.

Yes, we have such a rule.

I'll ask Ruoxin about the restaurant.

It's okay.

Mr. Ruan's secretary has booked

a Japanese restaurant called Black Pearl.

Ms. Shen is busy right now.

Don't bother her with these things.

Remember to come tonight.

THREATENED WITH WIFE AND CHILD

I saw the group chat.

Are you okay?

SPAM CALL

I'm fine now. Thank you.

About yesterday,

I was too emotional.

Come in.

Ms. Shen, Mr. Liu wants you
in his office now.

Okay.

Come in.

Mr. Liu.

-Is everything okay?
-I've notified the PR Department.

There will be an announcement.

After your approval, it will be posted.

Let's not talk about this first.

Ruan Ye is in charge of that.

I want to know now.

What do you think about it?

Do you mean the video clip?

I swear.

It's true that I met Jin Yuanhao.

But I'll never
threaten anyone with their child.

Ruoxin.

I believe you.

But will the netizens believe you?

So you mean…

This video has a particularly
bad influence.

The person who posted the video

is going against our company.

I really want to know.

Is it a coincidence that he knew

that we're on Jin Yuanhao's case?

And when you visited Jin Yuanhao,

he happened to take the video.

And he bent the truth
to tarnish our company's reputation.

Do you think

that I'm colluding with this guy?

Ms. Shen, calm down.

Mr. Liu was just trying

to objectively analyze
all the possibilities.

After all, you have been in charge
of Jin Yuanhao's case.

And it was your decision
to go to the hospital that day.

It's normal for others

to question you, right?

What do you think?

I'm the one who got splashed

and am in the center of all the gossip.

Am I stupid enough to frame myself?

All right, Ruoxin.

Stop it.

I don't care if it was personal

or was it against our company,

but things have gotten out of hand.

It has such a negative effect
on our brand.

I think you should stop appearing

in front of the public.

It's to protect you
for your own good as well. Okay?

What do you mean?

You're making me the sacrificial lamb?

Good.

The PR announcement is done.

Mr. Liu, please take a look.

Ms. Shen, take a look.

All right.

Why don't I read it out loud?

"After an investigation,

the Legal Department's Ms. Shen

did meet Mr. Jin Yuanhao at the hospital

yesterday afternoon.

But unlike what the video says,

she didn't threaten Jin Yuanhao

with the safety of his family.

This matter

is very important to Zenpro Automotive.

For causing so much trouble,

we would like to sincerely apologize
to Jin Yuanhao's family

and to everyone who has been paying
attention to the matter.

The company has decided that

starting tomorrow,

Ms. Shen will no longer be working
for the company's Legal Department.

Hereby certified by

Public Relations, Zenpro Automotive."

Also, Mr. Liu.

I made an appointment with Jin Yuanhao.

I asked him to work with us

and publish his own statement

to put an end to this.

And he agreed to it.

Ruan Ye.

Good job.

The way you do your work is…

Mr. Liu, it's for the company.
It's my duty.

Mr. Liu.

I've been working here
since after graduate school.

It has been seven years.

I'm attached to this company.

Ms. Shen.

Mr. Liu cares about
people's feelings as well.

He knows you've been working
for the company for years,

so he didn't take extreme measures.

But word has gone to the headquarters.

They were very upset.

Mr. Liu withstood the pressure
to protect you.

You would've been fired earlier.

So quit while you're ahead.

All right.

Ruan Ye.

Okay.

I'll be outside.

Ruoxin.

Have a seat.

The company has decided
that starting tomorrow,

you'll be transferred
from Legal to Administration.

Whether the attack

was personal or against the company,

transferring you

is the best solution.

Mr. Liu.

I studied law.

What can I do in Administration?

It's the same.

You'll still be a manager.

What will be the problem?

Besides, as Ruan Ye said,

I protected you,

so quit while you're ahead.

-Since you've made your decision--
-Yes.

I've notified the HR Department.

Get some rest this afternoon.

Report to Administration tomorrow.

Okay, I understand.

My shift ends in two hours.

I'll cover my last shift
in the Legal Department.

Shen Ruoxin is out.

Is this for real?

She's so good. How can it be?

How could this happen?

It seems to be true.

-She has been transferred.
-I think it's true.

Ms. Shen, this box is for you.

We're tidying up your new desk now.

Leave it there. Thank you.

ZENPRO LEGAL GROUP:
MR. RUAN IS TREATING EVERYONE

TO JAPANESE CUISINE
TO WELCOME QI XIAO INTO THE TEAM

YOU'VE BEEN REMOVED BY MS. QIAO

Ms. Shen.

Ms. Shen.

My computer science friend just told me

that he's still trying to track
the IP address for us.

Right.

I also checked the username on the forum.

On other websites,

I found similar usernames.

After reading the posts,

I found a special one.

Two months ago,

he asked,

"How do I install a tracking app

on my wife's phone?"

-I think this is--
-You should know

that I don't work here now.

You don't have to report this
to me anymore.

I don't think it's fair.

You're the victim.

What else can I do?

My personal situation,

compared to the company's interests,

is like an ant to an elephant.

Do I have a choice?

Get out. I want to be alone.

Close the door for me, thank you.

Everyone.

We have a new colleague.

Come. Introduce yourself.

Hello, my name is Shen Ruoxin.

I look forward to working with you.

-Welcome.
-Welcome.

Welcome.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Ruoxin.

You're amazing.

You won the biggest case

of intellectual property in our industry.

Yes.

People praise the lawyers

as if the Legal Department is useless.

Ms. Shen, you made us proud this time.

Congratulations.

Don't say that.

It's thanks to the lawyers.

And you guys too, right?

I should toast you guys.

Good job, everyone. Here.

-Thank you.
-Cheers.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

Why are you still here?

Didn't Ruan Ye

hold a welcome party for you?

I made up an excuse.

I'm not going.

It's not a welcome party
if you aren't there.

They can do whatever they want.

You recruited me.

I just wanted to stay and see

if you needed any more help.

What were you thinking?

You just got in.

Are you trying to piss off
all the leaders and your colleagues?

Don't you know how stupid you're being?

So be it.

Young people are stupid.

Right.

What should we eat later?

What do you mean?

I told you that I was hired by you.

Of course you should treat me
to a welcome party.

I'm sorry.

You work for the Legal Department.

I don't anymore.

Law students should be strict.

You'll be working in Administration
starting tomorrow.

So right here, right now,

you're still in the Legal Department.

If you really want me to treat you,

then you'll have what I'm having.

No problem.

It's good.

Why aren't you eating?

Can't you eat spicy food?

I didn't expect that you, a Shanghainese,

to mean such levels of spiciness
when you said "spicy."

You ordered too much food for us two.

Of course. I haven't had lunch yet.

We have to finish it.

Beef tallow hot pot is delicious.

Try it.

Can you even eat spicy food?

Are you regretting it?

You should've gone with them

rather than having this with me.

I'm a man.

I never have regrets. I'll eat.

Come on. Eat up.

Ruoxin.

It smells so good.

You're having hot pot?

What are you doing here?

Is the party over?

No.

I told them I had an emergency and left.

Qi Xiao told me where you are.

Yes.

Here.

Chopsticks.

Ruoxin.

The truth is…

Actually, I heard that the headquarters
didn't question you.

It was Mr. Liu and Mr. Ruan

who were trying to get rid of you.

I already guessed that.

To be honest,
I never wanted to be in office politics.

I always felt that
if I rely on my own efforts,

I believe I can make it.

But as it turns out,

I guess I was wrong.

So you two need to learn from my mistakes.

From now on,

butter Ruan Ye up if you have to.

You can even stomp on me if you need to.

I don't mind.

Come on. Let's drink.

Hurry up.

Ruoxin.

For the past two years,

thank you for always taking care of me.

When you're in Administration,

if there's anything I can do to help,

please let me know.

Just ask.

Okay.

Ruoxin.

I'll get that person who framed you.

That's enough.

We'll part ways and still be happy.

From now on, both of you
should take care of yourselves.

Bottoms up.

Bottoms up.

This is great.

Hurry up and eat.

It's so good.

I'm telling you, it's too spicy.

It's barely edible.

You'll get used to it.

All right.

Go home.

I'm leaving.

Ruoxin, are you really okay?

Although your news isn't trending anymore,

I still see many comments saying

they want to dig up information on you.

Yes, you should lay low for a while.

We haven't found the culprit yet.

-What if he's up to something again?
-That's right.

Why don't you stay with your mom
for a couple of days?

Forget it.

I can't go to my mom's house.

She'll be suspicious.

Besides, if they dig up my mom's address,

isn't that even worse?

They're just gossiping online.

I think

they won't do anything to me in real life.

Besides, I've taken self-defense classes.

I should be fine.

I'm leaving.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Ruoxin is such a brave woman.

If I'm half as good as her,

I'll be satisfied.

No matter how strong she is,

she must still have a soft side.

I'm leaving too.

Su Yang found a house.
I'm moving tomorrow.

Wait.

Su Yang?

You're still living together?

He is looking for a job.

We haven't moved since graduation.

I'm still rooming with him.

The school has issued a final warning.

We have to move out now.

But I think we can still be roommates.

We can split the rent as well.

He happens to have a classmate
who owns a house.

We're renting it for 5,000 yuan.

It's quite nice.

It's 5,000 yuan a month?

That's expensive.

This classmate is getting paid that much.

We settle financial matters clearly.

You've been very loyal and helpful
to Su Yang

by rooming with him.

That's the least I can do.

The rental in Shanghai…

It's not easy for him to stay.

Fine, I get that you two are good friends.

By the way,

is Su Yang still working on his webtoon?

I've been following his works.

Yes.

I'll tell that punk.

He does have fans.

Actually,

I haven't gone back to school
in a long time.

I would like to take a look.

And I'm experienced

in moving and packing.

I see.

I'll call Su Yang right now.

I'll have him pick us up.

Can I crash at your place tonight?

Over there.

How is that? Is that okay?

Su Yang, look who's here.

-Hi, Su Yang.
-Hi.

Do you remember me?

Of course I remember.

Hello, You Sijia.

It has been a while.

Yes.

It has been a while.

I never thought I would see you again.

I told you.

I was able to stay at Zenpro
because of her.

But I'm afraid
I'm not the one she's interested in.

When we were having dinner,

she had been asking about someone else.

When she heard
that someone was about to move,

she volunteered to help.

Qi Xiao, what are you talking about?

I haven't been back
to school for a long time.

I want to be on the school field

and watch the moon.

The moon?

Yes, I got it.

Help Su Yang pack

and he'll watch the moon with you.

What do you mean by that?

Are you not moving?

You really aren't the romantic style.

Fine, I'll be the third wheel.

We'll all pack and watch the moon, okay?

By the way, after packing today,

I'll come back early tomorrow
to move our things.

-Wait for me.
-No.

I checked. There aren't too many things.

I'll call a cab tomorrow
and get it over with.

Stay at the office.

Go straight to the new place after work.

Don't you have a lot of stuff?

When I moved out of the dorm,

I couldn't fit everything in one car.

You're a girl.

You have more belongings.

All right, don't stand there.

Let's go and pack.

The moon will be gone soon.

There'll be nothing to watch then.

-Let's go.
-Come on.

My goodness.

What are you doing, Song Ziyan?

Are you confessing your love to me?

I didn't wait in vain
for ten years, did I?

Finally.

Look at what you've done.

I shouldn't have bought crayfish.

I should've bought M9 wagyu.

I already have the wagyu beef.

Actually,

I was trying to be romantic
with Zou Cheng.

But that rascal went on a business trip.

So it's yours now.

Your house is full
of the erotic scent of truffles now.

I'll pass.

I already ate hot pot. I'm so full.

Your husband can have it.

Leave it for him.

I'll get changed then.

Go and get changed.

Tell me. What's wrong?

What's the problem?

Why do you have to stay here?

It's work.

Though I've been working
at this company for seven years,

now I'm back to square one.

Did your boss frame you?

Were they the ones you mentioned earlier?

Mr. Liu and Mr. Ruan?

It's a long story.

I feel like a sunflower right now.

I'm facing the sun,

but my body wants to rest in the mud.

Is my house the mud?

Have you ever seen such fragrant mud?

Go back to Cui Lixin's mud.

We broke up.

What?

No way.

I witnessed him proposing a few days ago.

You agreed too.

We broke up that day.

I don't know what he's thinking.

We've only been together for three months.

Why would he think
that we're ready to get married?

Tell me. Why do so many women like
the way he proposed?

Did he respect me?

It's our relationship,

but there was a crowd of strangers.

Why should I play along?

Did he give me the right to refuse?

Zou Cheng proposed to me
in the Meili Snow Mountains.

Back then,

everyone in the hotel was involved.

I was very happy.

Fine.

Maybe I'm the problem.

I must be an unusual woman.

Shen Ruoxin.

I really think
that Cui Lixin is a good person.

He's at least a B-class man.

Fine.

A "C+" at least.

"C+" is okay, right?

Yes, he's not a local.

For an outlander to come to Shanghai

and to make a living here,
that's not easy.

But the most important thing is that

in the three months you're together,

Cui Lixin cares a lot about you.

He has been nice to you

and he treated you like a queen.

Even your mom had no problem with him.

Why don't you accept him?

It's not that.

I'm not really looking for an A-class guy.

But being together with him,

it didn't feel like I was in love.

All that he has done for me

was like a burden.

Let me give you an example.

When he buys breakfast,

he may call ten times just for that.

I'm tired enough every day.

After a long day in high heels,

I can finally lie down on my bed.

I want to clear my head and use my phone.

But he would call me,

saying that we should go to a movie.

I really…

I just wanted to lie down quietly
on my own.

I didn't want
to go on more dates that week.

He wants an ocean,

but I can only give him a cup of water.

There's a gap
between expectation and reality.

You're so mean.

You're dating.

Lovers want to be together 24 hours a day.

But look at you.

Does he need to give a heads up

and get approval to date?

But he can't just show up at my door

and give me a shock, can he?

Shen Ruoxin.

I grew up with you.

You've always been that perfect girl

that my mom would compare me with.

But I think

in terms of love and marriage,

I have the right to advise you.

-Do you agree?
-Yes.

Here we go.

You're 33 years old.

You are pretty and smart.

But why do you have so few suitors?

That's right. Why?

That's because

you never show any sign of
wanting a relationship.

Or should I say

you never show any sign of wanting love?

You're always so calm, rational,

and self-reliant.

Men don't want to come near you.

Do you understand?

Do you really want to be in love?

Do you know what love is like?

Thank you.

Do you like this book too?

I just want to check it.

Do you like it too?

I've read it before.

Love means

that he's all you can think of.

You'll be so brave

that you might do something

that you wouldn't normally do.

But sometimes, you may get cold feet,

start to think too much,
and be afraid to lose everything.

Love is just

like moonlight,

a floral scent,

a dreamy rhythm,

or a reckless journey.

DISCOVER NATURAL CODE

Is that from the advertisement

for your Adventure Club?

-How did you know?
-Cliché.

It's so clichéd.

That last sentence

is some kind of slogan, isn't it?

I work for a large company.

Do you know
how many commercials I've handled?

See, this is the problem.

You never commit yourself
to a relationship.

You always stay on the outside.

To observe, to judge, and to calculate.

Why did he do that?

What's his purpose?

How should I respond?

How can I protect my own interests?

Come on.

That isn't love.

Love is an urge to take risks.

A choice that comes from the heart.
