All language subtitles for Full Bloom - The Tale of Rose Episode 21

=The Tale of Rose=

=Episode 21=

I can do it myself.

Mom.

Why don't you speak Mandarin?

She can't understand our dialect.

I don't have much to say to her.

She's educated.

She's your daughter-in-law.

You two will need to talk eventually.

I'll talk if I have to.

You chose your wife

without asking if I approved.

Such a pretty daughter-in-law

and you're not satisfied?

What's the use of being pretty?

You'll have to pamper her every day.

Look at her hands.

She's not someone who does housework.

Why do you want her to do housework?

You're not hiring a maid.

I'm just worried about you.

You work

and do house chores.

Men don't do housework.

It's too hard.

Housework

is for both of us to do together.

We also earn and spend money together.

It's good this way.

Her family is in Beijing.

Won't you have to accompany her home

for holidays?

Mom.

I work

for myself now.

My schedule is flexible.

When my company stabilizes,

I'll be less busy.

I'll come visit you

whenever I can. Okay?

No need, no need.

- I'll do it.
- I'll do it.

No need.

Look at how nicely you're dressed.

Mom.

This...

Who gave you so much money?

It's not from someone else. It's mine.

What?

You sent me money last time.

I haven't spent it yet.

No need, no need.

Mom.

This money is not for you.

Later,

give this red envelope
to your daughter-in-law

as a meeting gift.

So much?

Beijing girls don't care
about betrothal gifts,

but we must

show sincerity.

Isn't this sincere enough?

Since you aren't having a big wedding,

I can't even

recoup my gift money.

Look at tonight.

She isn't someone

who cares about formalities.

She's practical.

Mom.

When I save enough for a down payment,

I'll buy a house in Shanghai

and bring you to live with us. Okay?

I won't go.

The south is damp

and sticky.

I can't get used to it. I'm fine here.

How can you not get used to it?
The south is great.

Don't forget to give it

to her later, okay?

(Guest Room)

Here, change into slippers.

I have something to tell you.

Go ahead.

That call earlier wasn't a mistake.

It was from my ex-boyfriend.

He's on his way here.

We've never asked

about each other's past,

right?

I haven't dated anyone.

You know that.

I thought the past

wouldn't affect us at all,

but now I think you should know.

His name is Zhuang Guodong.

He's my first love.

Come on.

You go out at night often,

but why drag me along?

Exercising this late,

aren't you afraid you won't sleep?

I haven't worked out in a while.

I wanted you to join me.

You have something on your mind.

I don't.

What happened? Tell me.

Nothing.

Tell me.

Zhuang Guodong called me today.

He asked where
Fang Xiewen's hometown was.

Did you tell him?

I didn't think much about it.

Are you an information desk?

He wouldn't actually go, would he?

Why is he looking for you

after all these years?

He might know I'm getting married.

I get it.

What do you get?

I understand.

What do you understand?

Rose.

I...

Wear this for the photo shoot tomorrow.

Are we

still taking pictures?

Fang Xiewen, are you bailing on me?

No, I didn't mean that.

I...

That person...

Your ex...

He's him.

We're us.

Will my meddling

ruin their marriage?

You're underestimating Rose.

I'm not worried about my sister.

I'm worried about Fang Xiewen.

What do you think?

If...

If Zhuang Guodong shows up,

who will win?

You enjoy the drama, don't you?

Huang Zhenhua,
did you tell him on purpose?

What drama?

She's my sister.

Don't think I don't know your thoughts.

You want them to get back together.

You're rooting for Zhuang Guodong.

If I didn't want her to marry,

why would I deliver
her household registration book?

I just feel a bit sorry
for Zhuang Guodong.

Sorry for him?

Is he begging at your door?

Yes.

I can't be unbiased.

Look at Zhuang and Rose together.

They're like the figurines
on a wedding cake.

Perfect match.

Of course,

Fang Xiewen is good too.

I know you're rooting for him.

Nonsense.

What does this have to do with me?

Nothing to do with you.

It only concerns your sister.

She needs to handle this herself.

If you're so unsettled,

reincarnate as a girl next life

and marry Zhuang Guodong yourself.

What are you saying?

Don't go. Help me think.

How can I fix this?

Fix? I'll start
by taping your mouth shut.

(Exit)

Do you want a cab?

Where to? Where to?

Where are you?

I'll send you the address.

Come then.

Get in the car.

(Guest Room)

Rose.

This is my husband, Fang Xiewen.

We just got married.

Thank you for coming to bless us.

Congratulations.

Congratulations on your wedding day.

Let's go.

(Rose, incoming call)

Hello.

Su.

Did Zhuang Guodong go there?

Did you tell him?

It was me.

I've already beaten him up for you.

What's happening over there now?

We met.

I met him with Fang Xiewen.

I told him I was already married,

and then he left.

Better to end it quickly, right?

For Zhuang Guodong,

yes.

But for Fang Xiewen,

it's not fair.

Why?

I let him see him

so he knows
I have no ties with anyone else.

Shouldn't that reassure him?

But now Fang has met him.

Fang has a specific person

to direct his jealousy, insecurity,
and inferiority at.

He now has a face in his mind.

You transferred your pressure to him.

You got rid of Zhuang Guodong,

but he can't.

Why?

I never mentioned anyone else to him.

Why should he feel inferior?

You didn't do anything wrong.

His inferiority is ingrained.

He doesn't have your sense of security,

and now he thinks he has a rival.

So what do you think

I can do to make him
stop thinking like this?

You...

There's nothing you can do right now.

Give him time

to process it.

Do you know how much trouble you caused?

I deeply realize my mistake.

Write a 5,000-word self-reflection

and submit it to me tomorrow.

Can I write less?

8,000.

Then 5,000 it is.

The sleeves won't be in the camera.

Oh, that's right.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Hurry up.

After the photo,
go and get the certificate.

Remember to come to me
for a family portrait

next year on the child's birthday.

Come on, sit.

Come closer.

Closer.

Give me a smile.

Smile, please. Here we go.

(Fang Xiewen)

Zhenhua.

Zhenhua.

- Zhenhua.
- What's up?

Get back to work, everyone.

Go now. Go.

Zhenhua, Zhenhua.

Get back to work.

What happened?

I heard Mr. Wang
was called in for a talk.

Why?

Embezzling money.

Mr. Wang doesn't seem like the type.

This kind of thing isn't obvious.

Strange.

He claimed to be poor to me
a few days ago,

saying he had no money
to renovate his mom's house.

Just a cover story.

Don't believe it.

Enough talk. Let's get to work.

What work? All our projects

were approved by Mr. Wang.

A group came early

and took all the computers and ledgers

from the finance office.
They're auditing now.

Do you know how much he embezzled?

How much?

I'm back.

Mr. Groom, you're back.

- Congratulations.
- Fang.

Here, wedding candy.

Congratulations.

- Congratulations.
- Wedding candy.

We must share your joy.

I also brought some specialties
from home.

This wedding candy

looks delicious.

Where's Miss Yimei?

Why are you still thinking about her?

She's legally protected now.

I didn't mean anything.

I wanted to invite you

for a meal to celebrate.

That sounds good.

She went back to work.

Back to work?

You two are work models.

You didn't even have a honeymoon.

Won't she be mad?

She suggested it.

No wedding, no honeymoon.

The company is busy.

She understands.

Your wife is so considerate.

My wife is different.

When she's in a good mood,

I have to buy her gifts to celebrate.

When she's in a bad mood,

I have to buy gifts to comfort her.

Our company just started,

and she's already eyeing my dividends.

I wish I could find a girlfriend

like Miss Yimei.

That would be great.

Keep dreaming.

Girls like her are rare.

True.

Zhou, come with me
to Lanxing this afternoon.

No problem.

Based on your previous suggestions,

we designed the functions
into four modules.

These include user information records,

product complaints and feedback,

and events and introductions.

This is our design

(Lanxing Technology Culture Co., Ltd.)
for the event interface.

So, this is the overall plan

we made.

Any valuable opinions

or suggestions

for improvement?

It looks pretty good.

What do you think?

I think your product design

is better than I expected.

But your development cycle is two months.

Can it be shorter?

Two months is a conservative estimate.

We can complete the design in six weeks.

But to ensure quality,

we need at least a week

for stress testing.

Alright, we'll follow your schedule.

Good.

(Lanxing)

Fang, you're amazing.

You talked for over two hours straight,

and they had no questions.

You covered everything

the client wanted.

I'll call Hao to share the good news.

No need to go back to the office today.

Go straight home. See you tomorrow.

I'm leaving then.

I'll go now.

(Zhuang Guodong)

Hello?

Okay.

I'll meet you at Jinjiang.

See you soon.

Please help me reschedule my flight.

Mr. Zhuang, you've already checked in.

Rescheduling is not possible.

Then cancel it.

(Domestic Departures)

Sir, please come in.

Mr. Zhang,
can you send me their materials?

Yes.

Thank you.

I'm meeting a friend now.

Talk later.

Take a seat.

The last time we met, it was rushed.

I forgot to give you wedding candy.

My apologies.

I was the one being rude.

I didn't prepare a wedding gift for you.

No need for that.

Last time we met,

Rose and I hadn't registered yet.

She told me everything

about you two.

I understand.

A girl as wonderful as her

would surely have suitors.

No matter how many relationships she had

and whoever her exes were,

that's her past.

I don't mind at all.

She's not someone who drags things out.

Since she decided to marry me,

I have no rivals.

Waiter.

Hello, what can I do for you?

- Order some dishes.
- Sure.

Smoked fish.

Crystal shrimp.

Shanghai eel threads.

Mr. Zhuang,

I'm not here to eat.

Rose is waiting for me
to cook dinner at home.

These are Rose's favorites.

Didn't you know?

Sir, anything else?

That'll be all.

Alright, please wait a moment.

When we were together,

no matter where we were,

we'd try the local specialties.

We ate at street stalls

and five-star hotels.

Huang Yimei has seen the world.

She knows what's good

and accepts with pleasure what's bad.

It's because she's accommodating.

It doesn't mean

she lacks her own standards.

Mr. Fang,

don't get me wrong.

I won't disturb your life.

I consider her a friend

and a family member.

I care about her.

Naturally, I'm curious about her life.

We are doing very well.

Though my company just started,

it's already profitable.

Next year, it will be even bigger.

That's good to hear.

As long as she's happy,

I won't have any improper thoughts.

Hi, can you pack these dishes to go?

Charge them to my room. Thank you.

Sure, please wait a moment.

Sorry

for delaying your dinner plans.

Please

take these to Rose.

Congratulations.

You're back.

I'm too late

to cook now,

so I bought something simple.

I was thinking of making noodles.

What did you buy?

Take a look.

Is this what you call "something simple"?

You bought all my favorites.

Really?

Good job, Mr. Fang, big spender.

This must've cost at least 200 yuan.

You're my wife.

You should eat well, dress well,

and be happy.

- It's a bit cold. I'll heat it up.
- Is it cold?

It's fine.

Rose,

I will work hard

so I can take you out to eat every day.

Who eats out every day?

I love the dishes you make.

(Notice on General Manager Appointment)

Tina's leaving.

I thought the HQ would send a new boss.

Didn't expect Su to take Tina's place.

Su's the general manager now?

Tina was in PR before joining Cyan.

Su followed her then.

They were both headhunted together.

Alright, stop it.

Back to work.

Come on. Go now.

Do you still need these books?

No, dispose of them as you wish.

Here, have a drink and rest.

When are you leaving?

Tomorrow.

I'll see you off.

No need, I'm just leaving temporarily,

not forever.

No need for a big send-off.

What's wrong?

When I graduated,

my first job was working with you.

This is the first time.

First time what?

First time going solo?

First time taking the lead?

So what?

All these years,

I followed your style,

but I don't have
your international background

or your artistic insight.

But you have many good qualities

that I lack.

For instance, I have no backup.

So, I have nothing to lose.

When I first started,

no one understood art.

People thought art
couldn't be eaten or drunk,

seemingly irrelevant to ordinary life.

I was clueless too.

I stumbled along and made it to today.

The headquarters didn't appoint you

solely because of me.

They conducted

a thorough evaluation.

You're fully capable of this position.

Thank you, Tina.

Believe in yourself.

More people will recognize
your abilities.

But you must know,

no matter how hard you work

or how successful you become,

some people will always criticize you
behind your back.

Don't let them affect you.

Understood.

Congratulations, congratulations.

May your aspirations soar
like Kun and Peng!

Cheers!

Cheers!

Thank you.

To celebrate soaring aspirations,
you're treating me to this?

This is just the appetizer.

Appetizers go with champagne.

There will be steak later.

Steak goes with red wine.

You know,

when I was at the foot of the mountain,

a fall would at most

sprain an ankle.

But now,

it's a bottomless pit beneath my feet.

I can't even turn over in my sleep.

So according to you,

all bosses are like those

who sleep hanging from the eaves?

I don't know how they sleep,

but they definitely sleep less.

Tina left me a few projects.

I have to take over immediately.

So, I won't be able

to accompany you to the gym anymore.

Then if I want to see you in the future,

should I write a formal request first?

Cyan is a small company in Beijing,

with over 50 staff.

I can't show off to you.

Besides, aren't you busy too?

We'll always have to take a rain check.

I'm busy?

I might lose my job soon.

What happened?

Our boss got into some trouble.

People from above
are investigating these days.

Does it affect you much?

Not sure yet.

They said to wait for the results.

But that's off-topic.

Today's theme is to congratulate you.

Come on.

No matter how small your company is,

you're still a big boss.

You should have your due prestige.

If you need me,

just say the word.

My lady, you have my respect.

Shouldn't we hurry?

I still have to take you to bed later.

You're so annoying.

Hurry. Hurry.

Come in.

I reviewed your report.

Why didn't you include
the estimated approval time?

That needs the clearance
from the Cultural Bureau.

Working with government departments,

we can't be sure.

And before, Ms. Jiang

didn't require this from us.

That's the past.

My requirement is

to include an estimated completion time
for every step.

Ms. Su,

each project has uncertainties
during progress.

You know that.

Estimated completion time,

even if written, is not accurate.

I don't understand

why focus

on such trivial details.

Fine, fine.

I'll add the times and resubmit it.

We've secured

the e-book numbers for this series.

Our team is now contacting

domestic and international
distribution platforms.

That's great.

I thought you were here
just to do editing and proofreading.

Didn't expect you to establish
a new department

with high efficiency.

Thanks to you for securing this opportunity
with the boss.

It's my duty.

The final invoice just arrived.

It should be paid within this week.

Is this the last payment for the project?

Is it?

Yes.

Yes, it is.

Once payment is done,

prepare the final report
by the end of the month.

Make a note.

What's the progress
on the special children's art exhibition

arranged by the foundation?

I asked Tianruo to contact the media.

Any results?

Two newspapers have responded.

The TV station hasn't yet.

You did the project reports
for the foundation, right?

Yes.

In your team,

Wang Tianruo writes
the project proposals,

follows up on the projects,

and writes the final reports.

What do you do as the project manager?

I...

I arrange the work.

Arranging work isn't just lip service.

When a project is handed to you,

how do you plan to execute it?

What are the challenges?

How should the progress be managed?

These are questions

for someone of your level.

You are clueless about project details.

All information comes from Wang Tianruo.

You might as well let her be the manager.

From now on,

all of Han Ying's team members

report directly to you.

I'll notify HR to issue the notice later.

Wang Tianruo only joined us last year.

Her pay grade is at level 15.

She can't be directly
promoted to manager.

Pay grades are determined by performance,

not by years of service.

If a long-term employee

has problems with capability or attitude,

I won't go easy on them.

Alright?

That's all for today.

Meeting adjourned.

Ms. Han...

(Shanghai Dictionary Publishing House)

Mr. Fang.

- Mr. Fang
- I'm here.

Look.

Let me see.

(They say men change after marriage.)

(But Fang Xiewen hasn't changed.)

(He still takes care of me meticulously)

(like he did before.)

Have you eaten?

I'll eat at the office later.

Take your time.

I'm going to work.

- Bye, Mr. Fang.
- Bye.

See you, Fang.

♪Like a splash of red in a dull world♪

You didn't drive?

Lin Hao went to meet a client.

He took the car.

Then why did you come to pick me up?

I could've taken the bus back.

I like walking with you.

(If there's any change,)

(it's that he's become clingier.)

(Clingy or watchful?)

Have some fruit.

You're being silly.

Baby, I'm your daddy.

(Becoming a mother is a big decision.)

(Are you ready?)

(It's not a decision for me.)

(It's a blessing.)

(I've been waiting for this for so long.)

Come in.

This is the final project report
from last time.

Your department manager is Wang Tianruo.

Give it to her.

If you're so unhappy with me,

just fire me already.

It's not time
for performance evaluation yet.

Firing you now,

based on my words alone,

would risk a labor dispute
for the company.
