[Episode 2]

Back off.

Hello, the No.2 elevator has stopped at the twenty-ninth floor.

It must be a malfunction or a power outage.

Please have a check.

Okay, don't worry. Keep safe.

Alright. Don't be afraid.

Will you marry me?

By the way, have you decided--

I haven't decided yet.

I meant to ask what you want for lunch today. It's my treat.

I'm a bit busy today, no time for lunch.

Next time, lunch is on me.

Okay.

Hurry down.

Tu Xiaoning, come with me to the meeting room.

She's only been here for a few days, and now she's leaving.

Such a pity.

[Conference Room]

Did you help Zhou Kai with the discounting of a commercial draft?

Yes, I did it.

The commercial draft discounting

requires bank-endorsed undue paper tax bills and draft bills.

The bank has yet to receive the tax bills

because Zhou Kai colluded with scalpers and absconded with the funds.

You filed the records for him and were the second handler.

You need to cooperate with the investigation.

Ms. Rao, I just did him a favor.

I promise I'm not in collusion with him.

Whether you helped him or not is none of my concern.

We are just workmates.

You don't need to pledge loyalty to me.

Many departments are trying to give the Development Department a hard time.

And you have given them an opportunity.

So you mean I should take responsibility,

and resign to protect the Development Department?

Well,

it indeed fits the principle of economic cost.

Alright, I see.

I can resign,

but I can't take the blame.

I will prove my innocence.

I have to go.

Be nice.

You pushed her too hard.

When I encounter problems in the workplace,

why did you never stand up for me?

You're a strong woman in the banking world,

while she's like a delicate flower in a greenhouse.

Are you sure she can do it?

I'm not.

But remember to make the best out of a bad situation.

People who are too kind to themselves

can't succeed.

You've succeeded, anyway.

If she can do it,

it will silence all the external doubts about our department.

If she can't do it,

we won't have to pay a useless person.

The best of both worlds.

You're being selfish.

How about I tell Mr. Jiang

that you won't need your salary next month?

We work with love.

Mr. Jiang wants to see you.

What for?

I've put the non-compliant discounted bills on your desk.

Have you seen them?

Yes, I have.

The handler has fled.

They say the second handler is a girl from a labor dispatch company.

I think contract workers are incompetent.

We must investigate it thoroughly.

Since when does the Compliance Department

rely on feelings and prejudice to do things?

That's not right.

Xiaoning, there's no one else.

Did you really not collude with Zhou Kai?

Believe it or not, I didn't.

I will find the evidence

to prove that I have not colluded with him.

I told them you're not that kind of person.

They don't believe it.

Speaking of Zhou Kai, it reminds me of something.

He owes me 500 yuan.

If you get in touch with him, please let me know.

Okay.

Don't be anxious, sweetie.

Why aren't you leaving after work?

I'm leaving, Xiaomang.

Okay. I have to go.

There's no friendship in the workplace.

I'm nobody who could be discarded at any moment.

The only way to save myself is to work hard.

Xiaoning, you've also been working for so long.

How can you not know

that resources and connections are far more important than diligence?

I want fairness.

Fairness? It is what the courts give you.

The workplace can't.

Many departments are trying

to give the Development Department a hard time.

And you have given them an opportunity.

So you mean I should take responsibility,

and resign to protect the Development Department?

Well,

it indeed fits the principle of economic cost.

[Mom]

Sorry, the number you have dialed has turned off.

Sorry, the number you have dialed has turned off.

Tu Xiaoning.

♫ The night swallows the dusk ♫

♫ Only shadows follow closely ♫

♫ You're the streetlight waiting for me ♫

♫ My fast heartbeat ♫

♫ Hide in a few seconds ♫

♫ When I close my eyes ♫

♫ The beam of light behind you ♫

♫ Warms the flowing air ♫

♫ Time seems to pause ♫

♫ I'm privately cherishing this moment ♫

Let's get married.

Never mind.

I heard a saying before

that rain is nature's fireworks.

The sound of raindrops is like the burst of fireworks.

I have always liked the rain

because of this saying.

But later, I found out

that rain doesn't actually turn into fireworks.

Instead, it splashes mud everywhere.

Thank you for the coffee. It's very sweet.

I thought you might need something sweet.

So I added an extra cube of sugar to the coffee.

Oh, right, you're from the Compliance Department.

You knew about my situation already, didn't you?

When old classmates meet,

they will boast about their successful careers

or happy marriages.

But since I met you,

I have shown you all aspects

of my failed life.

Come on. You're unmarried at 27, but you're not a failure.

And my job? I've been working in the lobby for three years.

As others are working hard,

I'm working like a dog.

But even so, I haven't been made permanent.

On top of that,

I've been dispatched

to the Development Department Division One.

The funniest thing is,

I can't even stay in that development.

I have more enthusiasm for work than the staff employees.

But that isn't enough.

If you can't solve problems, you'll still have to leave.

I know.

But I believe

that no one does things without leaving a trace.

I am suspected now

because those traces have not yet been discovered.

But they definitely exist.

I believe I'll find them.

Because of the meaning of work

and the three years of effort,

you feel frustrated and unfulfilled?

Sure.

I knew it.

This is the girl I remember

who never gives up.

Are you trying to cheer me up?

In an old-fashioned way?

But it works, right?

Yeah.

Have you thought of a solution?

You are from the Compliance Department.

I am currently the subject of suspicion.

It seems we shouldn't discuss this in private.

But I haven't revealed anything to you

about how my department will handle it.

But it's work.

We need to follow the rules.

Keep it up, Tu Xiaoning.

It's my duty.

I won't show favoritism when dealing with your issue.

No worries, Ji Yuheng.

I won't leave my job easily.

Cheers.

Take a seat.

Let's start.

Tu Xiaoning, we need to ask you

about Zhou Kai's business issue.

As a bank employee,

you need to take responsibility for your words

and the truthfulness of each word.

No concealment, understand?

Understood.

Answer the first question.

Did you assist Zhou Kai

from start to finish?

No, I was only responsible for archiving the documents.

Zhou Kai handled the early collection of data

and filled out the information.

This can be checked on the company's website.

And the chat records between Zhou Kai

and me can also prove what I said.

This is my evidence.

[Chat records]

Take a look.

Do you know how much you can get after discounting one bill?

No.

But you still helped Zhou Kai with his job.

Don't you care

about your bonus?

I'm an assistant to the account manager,

but I am a contract worker,

not a regular bank employee.

The calculation way of my salary

is different from that of other formal employees.

I don't have clients, so I have no bonus.

The evidence I provided includes my salary information

and the statement of all bank cards under my name.

They can prove

that I've never received any performance-related payments

or any payments with unidentified sources.

Have you concealed anything else?

No.

We have a general idea of the situation.

You may go back.

Thank you.

I have one more question.

Regarding the two transactions, the company did not provide taxation receipts.

Were you aware of this?

Yes, according to the regulations,

if a company can't provide tax receipts immediately

or in a real emergency,

they can be completed within a month.

Zhou Kai is currently missing.

You filed the documents, so you were the second handler.

The bank is highly concerned about this matter.

Do you have any other clues?

Don't panic. There must be other traces.

Mr. Zhou, the tax receipts are not attached to the documents.

I know. I will get them done soon.

Alright, Mr. Zhou.

However, you need to sign this promissory note.

Okay, l'll do it tomorrow.

I'm afraid that won't do.

I can't file for you with incomplete documents.

This is the bank's rule.

If you can't come back, I can deliver it to you.

I have proof.

The tax receipts are not completed,

but the account manager is required to provide a tax receipt promise

that's signed by the heads of other departments.

This tax receipt promise should be in the archives now.

Director, I have no further questions.

You may go back.

Okay.

[Notice on the Investigation Results of the Zhou Kai Incident]

Jing, I have proved my innocence.

Well done. My department is not implicated.

Just ignore her.

Look, what is this?

I've been wanting to buy it.

Whatever you like,

I will get it for you.

It's quite hard to get.

Thanks.

Don't mention it, as long as you're happy.

Is it spicy?

Delicious.

How about I marry you?

I bet we will have a happy marriage.

We will be happier

than any other couple.

Okay, you quit first.

Just leave your job.

Others work happily,

while you work painfully.

I was indeed in big trouble.

Fortunately, someone helped me out.

Who? Your classmate and colleague?

Yeah.

He advised me in advance

to pay attention to the details of the rules.

Moreover, he seemed strict when asking questions.

In fact, he asked about many things that everyone else had overlooked.

He cleared me of suspicion.

He also showed people my professional side.

He's excellent and thoughtful.

I think he's interested in you.

He proposed to me.

What?

He proposed to me.

- Proposed? - Yes.

- Did you say yes? - Of course not.

I've only met him a few times. I can't marry him.

What's the big deal?

He's quite a catch. What does he see in me?

Why do you care?

Just think about what you see in him.

Ji Yuheng is an eligible man.

If you let go of him and put him back on the dating market,

you will lose a good man.

That's true.

He's definitely an eligible man.

I haven't had much contact with him,

but every time I'm with him, I feel quite at ease.

That's because you two knew each other before

and met again at a marriageable age.

He even proposed to you.

You two are meant to end up together.

What's wrong with getting married quickly?

Think about Lu Sijing.

In the end, he has no stable marriage

or exciting romance.

That's true.

Lu Sijing taught me a lesson.

He made me realize

the length of time couldn't determine the outcome.

So in that case,

a quick marriage might end well, right?

Yeah, and I can tell from your words.

Although I have never met this man,

I can tell he's much better than Lu Sijing.

I remember

Lu Sijing belittles your job

because you're a contract worker.

It makes me angry.

Now, you met a good man. He will feel sorry.

What's there to be angry about?

You want me to play with him?

Pretending to be complacent?

No. Just be impressive.

Okay, I got it.

I'll think about it.

Mr. Zhao.

Thank you.

Tu, the Compliance Department didn't give you a hard time.

Do you have connections?

If I do,

I've long been made permanent, right?

Don't be shy about it.

Connections can help

when you're in need.

I have no connections, Mr. Zhao.

Okay, let's not talk about this.

Let's talk about your regular job.

You'll be regular if you work for me.

Mr. Zhao, I hear you're good at making coffee.

Could you make coffee for me?

I haven't drunk from this cup. Would you drink it?

I'll pass.

We are equal.

Making coffee for you isn't proper, is it?

Mr. Zhao is a man who observes the rules.

Do you know

Tu Xiaoning is my assistant?

If you ask my assistant to make coffee for you,

you'd better notify me first to avoid breaking the rules.

Tu, my client got injured.

He's in the inpatient department of Renji Hospital.

Mr. Jiang and I have something else to do.

I'll join you after I'm finished.

Okay, I'm on it.

I'm off.

Be safe on the road.

Rao Jing, are you against me on purpose?

Can't you save face for me in front of her?

Hello, Jing, I just saw Mr. Li.

He injured his left hand, but he's recovering well.

He probably won't refuse to see visitors.

Okay, got it. I'll head over once I'm done.

I just had a word with his caretaker in private.

Someone from another bank came by this morning.

Got it. I'll be there soon.

[Development Department Division One] [Rao Jing. Out]

Hello, I'd like to order a bouquet of sunflowers.

Deliver it to the hospital.

Thank you.

Ji Yuheng? What is he doing here?

Who is it?

Sorry, madam.

I'm in the wrong room. Sorry.

Tu Xiaoning, why are you here?

Xiaoning? You're Xiaoning?

Yuheng's girlfriend. Come in.

Mom, the doctor said you can't keep sitting.

Why did you get up?

I've been lying down every day.

Xiaoning has come to visit me.

I'm so happy. Come here.

Madam.

Sorry for my late visit.

- Here. - That's alright.

This is for you.

You bought so many things.

It's okay.

Yuheng has always said that you're very busy with work.

Young people should prioritize their careers. Come closer.

Xiaoning.

I'm sorry for being like this when we first met.

That's all right. You look great now.

Listen to the doctor and take care of your health.

She's so sweet.

Xiaoning.

Yuheng is kind of introverted.

He keeps a lot to himself

without speaking out.

I hope you don't mind.

He's quite good.

But once he speaks up,

it will be a promise. He'll keep it seriously.

Seeing the two of you before me,

I can't help thinking

what would it be like if you two got married?

You will have adorable children.

- Mom. - Madam.

Madam.

Mom, you lie down.

- Madam, are you alright? - Lie down.

Okay.

You go out first. Move.

- Sorry. - Please go out.

Please, doctor.

Please go out.

Please wait outside.

[Wish You a Speedy Recovery]

Doctor, how is my mom doing?

She just lied down. You can see her later.

Her condition is bad right now.

Given her condition,

the follow-up treatment requires a lot of expense.

And even so,

I can't promise how much time she has left

You need to be mentally prepared.

As long as there's a little bit of hope, I won't give up.

Thank you, anyway.

Breast cancer, late stage.

My mom has been undergoing chemotherapy.

You don't have to say anything.

We are ordinary people.

We'll encounter various difficulties.

Thank you for not telling my mom the truth.

My mom is afraid that I'm too lonely.

So she…

I understand why you're so eager to get married.

But your mom seemed to know me before.

Have you mentioned me to her?

My mom worried about why I was still single.

We had a class reunion a while ago, right?

I told her I met an old classmate.

So she got the wrong idea.

Hello?

Wait a moment. I'll be right there. Thank you.

You have things to do, right?

Just do your things.

If you need anything, give me a call.

Thank you.

Mom, you're awake.

Xiaoning first saw me like this.

She must be scared.

No.

She has to go back to work.

I always heard about her from you during your school days.

And now she's become your girlfriend.

I finally met her.

It's a pity I didn't prepare a decent gift for her.

Mom.

Xiaoning didn't mind.

And I've already told her

you'll buy her a gift later.

She was happy to hear that.

Really?

So you need to get well soon.

Let's choose the best gift together for her.

I really need to think.

Xiaoning, why haven't you left yet?

[Convenience Store] Snack street.

It's like a conveyor belt of diners.

The food stays still, but we move.

You don't like this place, do you?

Back in school,

every poor college student dreamed

of buying as many snacks as they wanted.

I like this place.

I don't believe you.

[Stinky Tofu]

Why not give it a try?

Sir, two servings of stinky tofu, please.

All right.

This tastes okay.

It's not fried long enough, so the skin isn't crispy.

And there's too little sauce, so it tastes weak.

I used to eat better tofu near my school.

I used to eat it near my school.

Let's try the next snack.

[Mango Sticky Rice]

I'm stuffed.

I'll buy you digestive tablets.

No need. I have another way.

Follow me.

Why do we come here?

I want to take a walk

and reminisce about my past school life.

I didn't have to worry

about my livelihood, job, or failed relationships.

How nice.

Back then, I looked forward to graduating.

There are many things only adults can do.

I have wishes too.

I wish for a good job,

a happy marriage,

and a promising future.

That sounds nice.

How will you achieve them?

Although the Development Department isn't my best choice,

I've joined it.

I will give it my all and work hard.

As for marriage,

I've seriously considered your proposal.

After some time, I think you are a suitable man

for me to marry.

I've always had a question.

Why is it me?

Even for the sake of your mom,

you have many choices given your qualities.

Why choose me?

I feel a sense of compatibility

and security when I'm with you.

Indeed, we are in sync in many ways.

Is that because we are classmates

and know each other well?

Love is not a must in marriage.

Comfort and stability also matter.

You're right.

Start a marriage with no expectations.

The following days might be filled with surprises.

If the starting point is low, the sense of happiness will be high.

But my work is currently a mess.

It's a bit unfair to you.

How so? A career is just a part of life.

That's not the whole meaning of marriage.

Imagine if we got married.

If you're tired, someone is waiting for you at home.

Two people watch a movie.

When confronted with a tricky job,

we can figure out ways together.

We can complain about work stuff.

Aren't these the benefits of marriage?

Sounds quite nice.

No rule says

that we have to achieve success and fame before getting married.

In my ideal marriage, two people should

anticipate what future life might be like.

We'll figure it out together.

Yes, as long as we bravely start a new life,

we might find the right answer.

Ji Yuheng, I've decided.

Let's get married. We'll register for it tomorrow.

Yes.

[Redemption]

Heng, your dad passed way.

From now on, it's just the two of us in this home.

There are rumors that your dad took bribes.

Coincidentally, he passed away.

Who knows if it was a suicide out of fear of punishment?

After such an incident,

who dares to associate with him?

He's a top student,

but his dad is a criminal.

Rousong.

Hey, don't be impulsive.

Are you okay?

The cat is fine.

I'm asking about you. Are you okay?

Ji Yuheng, right?

I've heard some things about you.

I occasionally heard from others.

Not too much.

But I want to tell you to look forward.

If you keep looking back, you'll have to face losses.

But if you look forward,

you'll see something different.

Remember to use an umbrella on rainy days.

Otherwise, you'll catch a cold. Take care of yourself.

I give you my umbrella.

It helps you through the toughest times until the rain stops and the sky clears.

Take it.

Let's go, Rousong.
