[Memories of a small town]

I was born

in this marvelous small town,

the Town of Qiuyin.

Genius pianist Xi Song

was made here.

Like him,

I love music,

and

I fell in love with my neighbor.

We grew up together.

I became the person who knows her the best,

♪There is a grape tree in front of the door♪

but also became

the most impossible person (she'd be with).

[My Fated Boy]

[Episode 1]

Hello, Tao.

Didn't we agree on it already?

Not a Mercedez.

I want a Bentley. A Bentley.

A Bentley.

That Lu Zheng An is super popular.

So many companies want him.

But as soon as he came back from abroad,

he came to us.

As the chairperson,

shouldn't I

give him a proper welcome?

Didn't we agree on

four thousand yuan per day?

How did it become 5,000?

Go bargain...

Lu Zheng An, stop your car!

Hello? I'm talking to you.

(I am hiding from you,)

(can't you tell?)

You…!

(Miss,)

(you bought the seat next to me)

(on the same flight)

(and talked on and on for almost 10 hours, aren't you tired?)

I'm not.

(I am!)

(Miss Li Tian,)

(you and I are just schoolmates,)

(not boyfriend and girlfriend.)

(So please, don't cross the line.)

(stop following me,)

(okay?)

Where you go is your business,

whether I follow you or not is my business.

Don't you tell me what to do!

Hello? Hello?

Sir,

follow them closely.

What does he mean by this?

I thought we were picking him up at the airport.

He has been targeted.

In order not to reveal the company's address,

we picked this place in the middle of nowhere.

It's safer this way.

Mr. Ma.

Don't ask.

Just wait.

Hello, misters.

I'm Lu Zheng An.

I've been waiting for you.

I'm the chairperson of Yunlang Music,

your future...

Ma Le?

You can call me Mr. Ma or Brother Ma.

This is…?

Hello. I'm Mr. Ma's assistant.

You can call me Tao.

I'm sorry.

I can't really get out of the car.

Please take my luggage back to the company.

Just leave it with the front desk.

I'll go pick it up later.

What's with you?

You're going to leave us behind and go off on your own?

Yes.

I have some private matters to attend to.

Don't.

I especially arranged a dinner tonight in honor of your safe arrival.

Twenty to thirty people are waiting on you.

Thirty to forty.

If you're not going, then...

Lu Zheng An!

Let's talk about signing a contract later.

Thanks!

Lu Zheng An!

What's going on?

Where is he?

Who is she?

A sasaeng fan, of course. (*an obsessive fan who stalks)

Little girl,

you look like someone who has taken higher education.

The world is so vast.

There are so many beautiful things.

Why do you have to obsess over Lu Zheng An?

Right.

There are so many musicians.

A bunch are better than him.

Why do you have to sign Lu Zheng An

who had just graduated and doesn't have any famous works?

You're quite clever, little girl.

You're not so bad, old man.

See you never.

Bye.

A kid is still a kid.

Let's go.

I graduated,

but I plan to spend two days in Luxembourg.

You're at the office, right?

Have you been busy lately?

Why didn't you reply to my messages?

Wifey.

Don't tell me you've been

crossed in love again.

You young people really know where it's at.

Got married right after graduation?

Then you fell in love at an early age.

But there is no early or late to fall in love.

Once you meet someone you like, you have to act fast.

Otherwise, someone will take her first.

So, sir,

could you please drive faster?

Any slower, my wife will really become someone else's.

Sit tight. Here we go.

One more. One more.

Come on.

Don't stop.

Bottoms up.

Impressive.

Our Sister Yang can really drink.

One at a time.

Bottoms up.

Besides Bai,

your business department has 15 people.

I have already gone through everyone twice.

One round for Mr. Hua.

One round for myself.

I have completed my mission.

Everyone, enjoy yourselves!

I'm leaving. See you later.

Don't.

Sister Yang.

You're done,

but we have to return the favor.

Exactly.

If it weren't for all your help this time,

we would've been long gone.

There's no way we'd be celebrating right now.

Come on.

Here. Top it up for Sister Yang.

Cheers!

Chenmei Group, Mr. Gu.

Excuse me, everyone.

We cannot leave Mr. Party A hanging.

Stay where you are and wait for me.

Don't leave. Keep drinking.

Sister Yang!

What took you so long?

I just got out.

[MEN]

That's my phone.

What's wrong with you two?

Where's your phone?

I called you a dozen times. You never picked up.

Don't know where I put it.

Fortunately, you called me.

Saved my life.

Alright, hurry up.

Drink this.

[WOMEN]

Where's the straw?

Hold on.

Look at you two.

One is the finance director.

One is the secretary of the chairperson.

Whenever we're in this situation,

I think that being a nobody at the company

is really great.

Cheers.

Let's drink.

[Drunken-cure] Cheers.

How come there's no one at your company?

Did it close down?

No way.

Where are you?

Why aren't you messaging back?

[You're back in China? Where are you right now?]

[Your place.]

Did you see what Mr. Hua was doing today?

On a day like this,

he's holding a cup of date and goji berry tea,

hiding in a corner, keeping his health,

and making me go around to each department on his behalf.

You're his secretary after all.

Who said secretaries must be good at drinking?

Then why did he pick you?

It must not be just because of your tolerance.

She meant that...

I've made up my mind.

I'll work until the end of this year.

I'll quit after I get the annual bonus.

You said the same thing last year and the year before.

Yao Dan.

Before you make your decision,

take a look at your bank account,

the

credit limit on your credit card,

and

the loan period on your house in your hometown, alright?

Forget what I said.

Alright.

The people outside are waiting.

Deal with today first.

Get up.

Come on.

My foot is numb.

True.

Whatever happens, money comes first.

I may not be good at anything else,

but I can take a beating.

It's just drinking.

I'll let them know that

I didn't build up my tolerance for alcohol,

I was born with it.

Let's go.

Your shoes.

Sister Yang is back.

[Drink responsibly] [Do not imitate]

Come on.

You brat,

how did you get in?

Isn't the passcode Aunty's birthday?

Really not creative.

Didn't spoil you for nothing.

You remembered it even after going abroad.

Let me see if you had changed.

Brother.

You are a lawyer,

but you have nothing to eat at home.

Can't you live a little outside of work?

You know to care about others now?

Stop touching my face.

Let me hug you.

Brother.

Do you think I've gotten more good-looking?

Look closely.

I can't hold it off any longer.

Let me have a kiss.

Brother.

Do you think women will think the same?

Did you

come back because of that woman?

You're joking.

In the entire city of Qingning,

I don't know anyone else besides you and Lin Yang.

She knows you're back?

Of course not.

I came to see you as soon as I got off the plane.

What a good friend, right?

You don't know where she lives, right?

Where does she live?

Don't you have her number?

Ask her yourself.

A surprise.

All women like surprises.

Do you get it?

I don't.

Didn't you keep in touch

during these years?

She moved recently.

Recently?

You exchanged messages recently?

For business or personal matters?

Are you hungry?

Let me take you out for a late-night meal.

Don't change the topic.

Xiangyang Road, Xiyu Residence.

I don't know the exact address.

Where are you going?

It's so late already.

What are you doing?

Satisfying your request. Come on.

Thanks, my dear cousin.

You brat.

(Sorry,)

(the number you've dialed cannot be reached at the moment,)

(please try again later.)

Pick up the phone.

It's only 11 something.

Are you asleep already?

Or are you still at work?

Wifey,

don't push yourself too hard.

Eat three meals a day. Go to sleep early, and wake up early.

And don't drink too much.

Oh my gosh.

Why was the driver in such a hurry?

I didn't even pay yet.

Hey, pretty girl.

Let's get a drink together.

Afterwards,

we'll drop you off at home?

Are you talking to me?

No.

-No? -No.

Is there anyone else here besides me?

Sorry,

we made a mistake.

A mistake?

What mistake did you make?

Tell me.

What mistake?

This late at night.

You looked quite young,

but...

What is this?

But what?

Nothing.

Madam, don't mind us.

Let's go.

Madam?

Madam?

Aunty?

You brats,

I'll show you the power

of said Aunty.

Don't you run away!

Alright,

I'll take that as you're asleep.

Good night.

(Hold on.)

(Someone who has a low tolerance for alcohol)

(and acts crazily after getting drunk like you)

(should not drink.)

(So that you won't harm others.)

[Who's scared of drinking!!]

[Fight for tomorrow] [Put on your reality and go for it. Live your life!]

What's wrong with the front?

Looks pretty young as well.

Look at my skin.

So smooth, so firm,

full of elasticity.

People wouldn't believe me if I say I'm 18,

could be 25 for sure,

I definitely don't look 31.

I forgot again.

You've strained your back,

but fortunately, no damage to any bones.

You've also got a mild concussion.

We'll take a look

at the rest once the test results are out.

There shouldn't be any major problems.

Don't worry.

Doctor,

do I have to be hospitalized?

That would be for the best.

Just in case.

Miss Lin.

In your current situation,

your day-to-day life might not be easy.

Have you told your family members?

They're not in the city.

What about

friends,

colleagues?

They all have to work.

It's okay.

I can do it myself.

Alright.

Rest well.

Call me if you need anything.

How did something like this happen?

I've told him long ago that

he should go live with his son,

but he wouldn't listen.

And now this happened.

Nowadays,

there are many empty nesters like this.

Their lives are really difficult.

Exactly.

Running out of toilet paper while going to the bathroom.

Forgetting keys at home while taking out the garbage.

And this time,

forgetting the bath tower after taking a shower.

If there were anyone else at home, he wouldn't have taken this fall.

Living alone

is suffering.

To be brutally honest,

no one would even know if they die at home one day.

What is it?

Please get me my own room.

Sister Ling,

where is Sister Yang?

[Ruiye Advertising Agency] Haven't seen her all day.

She fell on the stairs.

She's in the hospital.

That serious?

She's even been hospitalized?

Who knows?

She wouldn't tell me which hospital.

She's probably embarrassed.

Don't worry,

I'll keep the secret for sure.

Sister Dan.

Have you heard?

Secretary Lin fell last night.

She fell down 30 steps of stairs

and was rushed to the hospital overnight.

Why was she climbing stairs in the middle of the night?

She's even undergoing surgery?

Could she be paralyzed?

That's hard to say.

Think about it.

She fell down 30 steps of stairs.

Some damage must have been done.

Seriously?

Can she still come to work tomorrow?

Her life is on the line, why care about work?

That's true.

Poor Sister Yang.

She's still so young.

Well,

she's 31 already.

Thirty-one? She doesn't look like it.

What about 31?

I'm 34.

What?

Mu Mu,

get up.

What?

You have to report to the office at two in the afternoon.

I'm not going.

Why do you have to force me?

I don't want to work at my brother-in-law's company.

Let me say this one more time.

You only have three options.

First,

go report to the office as you're told.

Second,

I'll tell Dad that you've come back in secret

and let him deal with you.

Third,

I'll get a flight ticket right now

and drop you off abroad myself.

There are no other options.

Fine.

I'll call Dad

right now.

I'm going.

[Moments]

[Flower Fairy]

[Flower Fairy]

(What's happening?)

Do university students these days have this much time on their hands?

Boring.

[Ultrasound Radiology]

[Wheelchair accessible]

[Bed 27]

(Are you busy?)

(I'm having lunch with a client close to your office.)

(I'll be done at around two.)

(If you have time,)

(let's go grab a drink?)

What's wrong?

Where does it hurt?

Do you have any cosmetics here?

What?

Miss, you're here.

What would you like to drink?

A cup of lemon water for now.

We'll order more once he gets here.

Okay.

Jia.

Take a look,

can you see my feet from that angle?

No.

Alright then. Thank you.

(Yang,)

(a temporary secretary just came to the office,)

(did you know about this?)

[Rich Ladies Club]

(Hospitalized in the morning,)

(a temp came in the afternoon.)

(This is too rushed.)

(Looks like she's in her early 20s,)

(just graduated from university.)

(A hundred percent has connections.)

(Stop saying that.)

(It's not good for others to hear about this.)

[Xie Nan Ke]

You're done?

(Just finished.)

(But I got a notification)

(saying that there is an emergency meeting,)

(so I have to go back to the office right away.)

Next time, then.

(Yes, yes, yes.)

(I'm really sorry.)

(Next time I'll definitely...)

Let's talk about that next time.

(Okay.)

(Oh, right.)

(An An is back.)

(He's staying at my place.)

You wanted to meet me

just to tell me this?

(These couple of days,)

(he might go looking for you.)

Then you didn't have to ask me to come out at all.

You could've just told me over a phone call.

That's it.

Jia.

I'd like to order.

[Li Tian] [Administration Department]

[Li Tian] [Administration Department]

You're finally calling me.

Why are you at that company?

Because it's my Brother-in-law's company.

(Let me tell you,)

(I'm the secretary of the chairperson.)

(Everyone...)

Secretary of the chairperson?

What happened to the original one?

(She has been hospitalized.)

(Don't know when she'll be discharged.)

What happened to her?

How would I know?

Which hospital?

I don't know.

I don't know, I don't know.

Lu Zheng An, why are you so nervous?

Who is she to you?

Don't tell me you called me because of her?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

(Time to get off work.)

(Another day is done.)

(People)

(are so busy,)

(desperately powering themselves,)

(for nothing but an irreplaceable sense of existence.)

(But I)

(have worked so hard for 5 years.)

(It took less than a day for me to be replaced.)

(I still can't get the person I've been waiting for)

(for so many years.)

(Still can't compare to a meeting.)

(I,)

(Lin Yang,)

(31 years old,)

(have nothing but a 2-bedroom apartment)

(I've rented.)

(Yao Dan said that)

(precisely because you don't have anything,)

(you have more possibilities.)

(But she didn't say)

(what those possibilities look like)

(and when they'll come.)

Lin Yang isn't picking up my calls. You call her asap.

(I'm in a meeting right now.)

She has been hospitalized.

I want to know which hospital.

(We talked this afternoon.)

(She has been at her office the entire day.)

(Alright,)

(I'm really busy right now.)

(Stop fooling around, okay?)

(We'll talk after I'm done.)

Hello?

Aunty.

(I really want to cry,)

(but I can't.)

(At this age,)

(I've lost my tears.)

(They all say that the crying child gets the milk.)

(No wonder I'm so hungry.)

[Pretty]

Hello, Mom.

(Where are you?)

(Have you eaten?)

(Are you still at work?)

I've eaten already.

I got home a long time ago.

(You got home so early today?)

(Lying to me again?)

You don't believe me when I get home early

and you scold me when I get home late.

What are you and Dad doing now?

(What else can we do?)

(We're going to bed after watching some TV.)

(You've been well recently?)

Yes.

Work has been going well

and I'm healthy.

(You always say that.)

(What about relationships?)

(Have you met someone you like?)

Yes.

We just had dinner together.

(I'm not rushing you.)

(I'm just afraid that things are hard when you're on your own.)

(Just now,)

(An An called me)

(asking for your address.)

(I couldn't even answer him.)

(I'm really...)

I didn't tell you guys.

Of course you wouldn't know.

(I know you're busy)

(and don't have time to call often.)

(Then,)

(post Moments more frequently,)

(like Ting Ting,)

(Jing, etc.)

(They post multiple times a day.)

(Look at you.)

(You barely post once every 2 weeks.)

(Post some food, entertainment,)

(work, life, etc.)

(so that we can see.)

Okay.

I got it, Mom.

Let's leave it here.

I'm going to get ready for bed.

You guys should go to sleep early too.

I'm hanging up.

Wifey.

(This is the first time we've met after four years.)

(Still not very happy.)

(I,)

(a 31-year-old working office lady,)

(have been holding on for so many years.)

(A little kid like this...)

(But this time, I don't think I'm late.)

(So close.)

(So embarrassing.)

[Preview of the next episode] Why did you come back so suddenly?

Because of

you.

I got it.

Got it?

You're in a relationship.

You are…?

Li Tian.

Lu Zheng An's girlfriend.

I heard that Brother-in-law's assistant

is 30 something and still

hasn't gotten married.

If you know something,

just tell me.

How did she become

the secretary of the chairperson?

You'd have to ask Mr. Hua.

The boss likes her.

Who dares to say no?

Like?

Lu Zheng An!

He's married.

What married?

He just graduated from university.
