[Episode 3]

Registration is tomorrow?

Yes, we both took tomorrow afternoon off to get our marriage certificate.

Getting married is not the same as dating.

You should consider it carefully.

Do you know him well?

I do, Mom. Don't you know him quite well too?

He's the nephew of Mr. Wu whom you wanted to introduce to me.

He has a good appearance, and his family background is clean.

His character and abilities are all top-notch.

You even said that with this quality, he

could compete against five in the matchmaking market.

If I were to bring him home,

I wouldn't want to blind date anymore. Did you forget it?

Our family does not object to a shotgun wedding.

But after all, there should be some emotional foundation, right?

Uncle, Auntie,

Xiaoning and I truly have a certain emotional foundation.

We were high school classmates.

We've known each other for almost ten years.

There's something that I haven't told you.

Actually, I've had a crush on him for ten years.

I've liked him since high school.

But he was too excellent, I didn't have the courage to confess.

I met him during a blind date.

I felt that no one else but him would do.

We two have decided

not to waste time and go for it directly.

Mom, Dad, please give me the household registration book.

Besides, you would be happy about me getting married, right?

I wouldn't have to keep urging you to set me up with someone.

Mr. Ji, what do you think?

Uncle, Auntie, I truly want to marry Xiaoning.

So you can rest assured and entrust her to me.

Alright, we have no objections.

It's up to you two to decide.

Jing, there's a document that needs your signature.

Is there anything else?

Once I finish my work,

can I take three hours off this afternoon?

Yes, you can.

Thank you, Jing.

Jing, I'm off now.

- Okay. - Goodbye, Mr. Zhao.

Bye-bye.

What's with Miss Tu, in such a hurry?

Rushing to get married?

Did you bring the stuff?

[Residential Household Register]

What about yours?

[Residential Household Register] Then we'll…

Set off.

Hello, we would like to apply for a marriage certificate.

Please get a number from the self-service machine over there first.

Then go over there to wait for your turn.

Okay, thank you.

Hello, these are our documents.

Where is the photo? I need the photo as well.

Photo?

Sorry, we decided to get married on the spur of the moment.

We didn't take any photos.

Turn right outside. You can take a photo there.

Hurry up, we're about to close.

- Thank you. - Okay, hand me the files.

- Here you go. - Thank you.

Run a bit, they're about to close soon.

Hurry up.

[We Are Married]

Move your heads closer, a bit closer.

You two are newlyweds.

Why are you being so polite as if you're paragons of virtue?

Think about the sweet days you've had.

Today you have finally tied the knot.

How happy and sweet it is.

Alright, come on, let's take another one.

Get ready.

If you really can't do it, go out and compose yourselves.

I have a queue waiting outside.

No, we are also in a hurry.

Sorry about that.

It's our first time getting married, we have no experience.

Is my smile not good?

It's quite good. How about this?

Let's just imagine it's like taking photos at the company's annual meeting.

Okay.

Let us try again.

Alright.

Get ready, three, two, one.

[Star City Marriage Registration Service Center]

Do you think we should pick an auspicious day to get the certificate?

Hurry as we might, we still didn't make it in time.

It's okay, we've taken the photo anyway.

Next week, we can find time to come and get it just the same.

Okay.

Let's go.

- Have some tea. - Thank you.

- This is the tea Tu just brought back. - Good.

- Thank you. - Here.

Alright.

- You're back. - You're back.

How did it go, smoothly?

I've posted about your marriage registration

[Jasmine Tea] in our family's big group chat.

Everyone has come over to join in the fun.

- Thank you, Auntie. - This is your son-in-law, isn't it?

So handsome!

Don't forget us old neighbors when you get married.

We'll also come to give our share of the wedding gift.

Where's the marriage certificate? Show it to us.

Let us also share in the happiness.

Right, show us.

I left it in the car.

Another day, I'll show it to you.

Okay.

- Have some fruits - Sit down.

Go inside and tidy up.

Take a seat.

Sit down.

I see there are so many relatives outside

and my mom is in high spirits.

Let's not mention not getting the certificate for now. Don't dampen her mood.

Anyway, we'll get the certificate next week.

When it's done,

it will be the same to show it to my parents then.

When are you free next week?

I'll take leave in advance.

I have an audit review meeting for the first two days of next week.

Indeed, it's not good to take leave.

- How about Wednesday? - Okay.

Mr. Ji, since you've already gotten your certificate,

let's arrange a time to meet with our in-laws.

No problem, Uncle, Auntie. I will arrange it as soon as possible.

Why still call us Uncle and Auntie?

Exactly, we are all family now.

You've got to change the way you address us sooner or later.

You might as well do it now while you're in the mood, right?

No rush.

He can change it when the wedding is held.

Alright then.

Dad, Mom,

rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Xiaoning.

Come on.

Here, the fee for changing how you address us.

- Thank you, Dad. - One for each.

- One for each. - Thank you, Dad.

I wish you a happy and fulfilling life together until old age.

I wish you happiness both morning and evening.

What happiness in the morning and evening? No happiness at noon?

Happy every day.

Happy every day.

Dad, what are you looking at to be so happy?

I just love to see them, mother and daughter, sitting there.

It makes me happy just watching.

In the future, after you are married for a while,

you will just know it naturally.

Nothing beats the family staying together safe and sound.

- Yes. - That's what happiness truly is.

After you two get married, get along well.

Do you know how to cherish your wife?

First of all, you must be attentive.

You have to remember what Xiaoning likes and dislikes.

Secondly, you must put your heart into it.

Yes.

Women,

whether young or old, just love romance.

Romance?

Daily necessities are the foundation.

Romance, you must tighten this string.

Most importantly, a woman can skip a meal.

But if you miss a surprise that should have happened,

you're done for.

Got it.

Ji is both careful and patient.

You have good taste in choosing a husband.

Not inferior to me.

You've only met him twice

and you praise him to the skies.

What's the matter? What about your previous picky standards?

He is so measured in his actions. Shouldn't he be praised?

Are you familiar with him?

How do you know he is measured?

Anyway, I just know it.

Thank you, Ji Yuheng.

What are you thanking me for?

Thanks for your cooperation in handling the relatives and parents.

If it weren't for your cooperation today

and I suddenly told them I was getting married,

I guess their blood pressure and heart rate would have risen.

Since it's a real marriage,

the proper rituals need to be followed.

If there's anything you didn't think of or do in the future,

I will think of it all for you.

Okay.

What are you laughing at?

Nothing, I just suddenly feel

like there's a sense of being about to be married.

Isn't it the feeling of life after marriage?

How do we arrange for tonight then?

My parents think we're already married.

I'm all ears for you.

I just feel that the role change is happening too quickly.

I'm not ready yet, so…

I especially understand. No one can change that quickly.

How about I go home today?

After you go back, spend some time with Uncle and Auntie.

Okay.

Spend some time with Dad and Mom.

Once you get used to the new role, we can make long-term plans.

Alright, drive carefully on the way.

Let me know once you get home.

Okay, I'll watch you go back.

- Bye. - Bye.

Come on, pick a piece.

Come with me to meet a client tonight.

Meet a client?

It's not convenient for you?

No.

When you worked in the lobby,

your work was carried out within eight hours.

But working in the Development Department,

what you do outside of those eight hours is what's most important.

Working in the Development Department,

you won't enjoy your twilight years like working in the lobby.

So you need to have the courage to blaze a trail and forge ahead.

These clothes are not your shortcut.

They are merely your battle attire for the battlefield.

But whether you go to battle or not is up to you.

Of course, I have to go to battle.

Jing, are we going to drink tonight?

- Can you drink? - Yes.

Very good. Remember to let your hair down.

It matches this dress better.

Okay.

Let's have dinner together after work.

I don't have time tonight.

Director Yao.

Mr. Ji, come on in.

- After you. - Let's go.

Ms. Rao, you'll go to a dinner party?

Yes.

Good.

You refused my dinner invitation

just to attend a dinner party?

No wonder your Development Department is always full of vitality.

Mr. Yao.

A worker's life after work doesn't always belong to themselves.

Achieved through real effort and concrete actions.

So, I hope you

would not believe those rumors.

I also hope that the Compliance Department

would go easy on our Development Department.

Whether these rumors are true or not, our Compliance Department will judge for ourselves.

But if there are any actions on the fringe of the boundaries…

They may seem not illegal, but it doesn't mean they conform to the rules.

Please remember this, Ms. Rao.

Mr. Ji, are you warning me?

A warm reminder.

I will bear it in mind.

See you later.

Did I just offend him somewhere? He's acting like he's swallowed gunpowder.

[Notes on toasts at workplace dinners]

Mr. Ji, how come you haven't left yet?

It is after working hours now.

You don't need to call me Mr. Ji.

Where are you eating tonight?

Nanzhi Restaurant. Jing will be coming over in a bit.

You'll drive there? Aren't you going to drink?

Jing said to call a designated driver.

If you don't want to go,

tell me, I'll help you.

I want to go. I'm different now.

Back when I was in the lobby,

by being observant, enthusiastic, and approachable, I could solve problems.

Now I have to go to the battlefield.

You seem quite calm.

What's the use of struggling?

Struggling is just internal friction. Better to get on with it.

If all else fails, I can play the deserter.

Why were you like that to Jing just now?

Because she ruined our first dinner.

You're not someone who mixes up public and private matters.

Since when do you know me so well?

I've seen you at work.

Rao Jing likes to overstep boundaries in her actions.

I was just offering some advice.

As long as it's not because of me.

Take it, I'm leaving.

- Be careful. - Don't worry, no problem.

Mr. Qian, this red wine is from the northern part of Portugal.

The vintage is quite right. Here's to you.

I hope you will give Dairui a chance

to work with you to explore the southern market.

Not many people know about this winery.

It seems you've done your homework.

Rao Jing,

the person you taught is indeed teachable.

Mr. Qian, the newcomer

has to learn a lot, memorize and recite more.

Unlike you, who deals with banks a lot.

You've almost become a semi-professional.

In the future, you'll have to give Tu more guidance.

- Here. - Here, come on.

Qian Dong, 43 years old, took over the family mining business.

In just six years,

he tripled the business volume of the family's mining operations.

He has high standards for his everyday life

and has a very good relationship with his wife.

His son is studying abroad.

He likes to drink niche Portuguese red wine.

Since they need to expand into the southern market,

many banks want to take over his loan business.

Tu, you like red wine.

We can communicate more in the future.

Who knows, we might even become friends.

That would be my honor.

But to be honest, I don't really understand red wine.

When I was advising a previous client

on loan counseling,

that client shared with me.

Just like you,

he also likes red wine from northern Portugal,

especially Porto.

He just returned from the UK and is also planning to invest in minerals.

Perhaps you two know each other.

Is this person named Qian Junsheng?

Right, I said you might know each other.

Tu, we cannot disclose client information.

Did he get a loan from Dairui?

Mr. Qian, I am really sorry.

Tu is new and doesn't know the rules.

She doesn't know what your relationship is with him.

A newcomer, I understand.

So she needs to be taught well.

Mr. Qian, rest assured, I will definitely teach her well from now on.

Today was Tu's fault.

How about this? Let me toast three glasses to you

to apologize on her behalf.

Open that up, there's another set of materials inside.

The loan interest rates are much of a muchness.

[Entrepreneur Personal Profile Qian Dong] So think about it carefully.

What is the reason that would make Mr. Qian choose Dairui exclusively?

After looking through the materials, extract the key points.

Think of a way later.

How to convey these messages to Mr. Qian at the dinner table.

Okay.

What stage has this matter progressed to?

As long as there is the exclusivity agreement,

Dairui cannot possibly collaborate with the person you're concerned about.

Besides, your contracts with other projects at Weixi Bank

have not yet expired.

I believe Weixi Bank would not possibly, because of someone else,

give up such a big client, right?

So, as long as there is no support from these two banks,

even if some people are very capable,

they won't be able to make any waves.

Jing, drink less, I'll drink.

Bring me the contract, so I can have a look.

Do you have a girlfriend now?

I know you very well.

You never look at your phone when you're outside.

Between us master and disciple, let's not keep secrets, you hear me?

Indeed, nothing can escape your eyes.

I do have a girlfriend now.

When did this happen?

All these years, I've never seen any girl by your side.

It's a recent thing.

When there's a chance, I'll bring her to visit you.

Okay.

Sir, you invited me for tea today.

Is there something on your mind?

Perhaps you already know

there have been many issues in the Development Department lately.

Division One led by Jiang encountered some problems.

Xing from Division Two is too ambitious.

He's always thinking about merging the two divisions.

But I know his capabilities.

If he does that, the Development Department will be thrown into chaos.

Division One and Division Two

handle most of the loan business in the bank.

Indeed, it can't be a mess.

Exactly.

Let's not talk about this anymore.

It's not easy to invite you out for a cup of tea.

How has your mother been feeling lately?

She's fine.

When she heard you got a girlfriend, she must be over the moon.

I told her about it right away.

Naturally.

Jing, are you okay?

Did I cause trouble? Making you drink so much.

No worries, you did great.

Mr. Qian is usually very stubborn.

I've tried many ways but can't deal with him.

Later, I heard that his father's youngest son came back from abroad.

He is making some loans to some small banks,

wanting to engage in some mining-related activities.

I knew this must be his breakthrough point.

But at the same time, this is also his sore spot,

definitely not something that can be trod on casually.

So, if you had been the one to bring this up,

he would think you were threatening him.

It would backfire, right?

Otherwise, what do you think

that we could come out to have this meal today?

Why do you think I asked you to dress so nicely?

To trade on your looks?

I just wanted you to play the role of an inexperienced youngster at work

and inadvertently pass on this piece of information to him.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

He won't think that we are in cahoots, right?

Some people, when they are well-versed in certain matters,

tend to become complacent.

He thinks he's fully familiar with our sales tricks.

You're overdressed today on purpose

and pretending to be new to the drinking culture at the table,

making him think you're a workplace rookie.

That way, whatever you do

and whatever clients you pull in will all seem reasonable.

I should have been the one to drink those three glasses earlier.

Blocking drinks for you is not to be taken as a precedent.

You'll have to meet clients on your own eventually, right?

Jing, you don't need to block drinks for me, I can drink.

- Really? - Really.

Okay, let's see how much you can drink.

Jing.

You're so great!

You were great today too.

You really can drink a lot.

How are you so good at this?

Why aren't there any rideshare drivers taking orders?

Wait a bit longer, just a bit longer.

Why are there no rideshare drivers around here?

Jing.

Mr. Ji, what are you doing here?

I just happen to be passing by for work.

Did you drink?

Had a bit.

It's not a good time to call for a rideshare.

I'll give you a ride.

The car's here.

The car, it's here.

- That works. - The car's here.

Please help me up.

No need, I can do it myself.

I can do it myself.

Well, I…

Take the passenger seat.

Okay.

Ms. Rao, this colleague seems to have an average tolerance for alcohol.

You've had quite a bit, huh?

You are talking about Tu?

She indeed didn't drink a little tonight.

Didn't drink a little, it seems the rumors are quite true.

I don't know what rumors you have heard.

But I know

there are indeed some rumors about me out there.

But these are all my personal actions.

I do not wish for our Development Department Division One

to take the rap for me.

But I want to tell you

some people and some things

require the sedimentation of time to be understood.

I have my principles when doing things.

I hope so.

Some people, you know them for a long time,

yet you don't know them at all.

There are some people whom you feel familiar with right after meeting.

Who are you talking about?

My boyfriend, perhaps.

Yes, I should call him that way.

Xiaoning.

- We're home? - We're home.

Come on, put on a coat.

Be careful, the bag.

Come on, careful, watch your step.

Slow down, be careful.

Hang in there, we're almost home.

Are the keys in the bag?

I don't know.

How come you didn't bring the keys when leaving home?

Dad, Mom.

Ji.

Hello, Mom, aren't you and Dad at home?

We've come to the countryside, to your elder maternal aunt's place. What happened?

You won't be coming back tonight?

Tonight your great-uncle will drive us back.

Is there a problem?

I'm taking Xiaoning home. She didn't bring her keys.

Didn't bring the keys? Then just stay at your place.

You're married now, it's time to have your own home.

Is Xiaoning too shy to mention it to us?

We are not that conservative.

After we go back,

we will deliver her luggage to you.

Okay, take care on your way back.

We'll head back first.

Alright, you guys be careful too.

Okay.

Come on, be careful.

This way, come here.

Unlocked.

Come on, watch out.

Slowly.

Where is this?

This is my…

This is our home.

Our home?

Mint scent, it's your scent.

Come, let me help you over to rest.

Sit for a while, come.

- Slow down. - I'm not drunk.

- Be careful. - I can walk by myself.

Come on, slow down.

Back home, it's really good to be home.

You wear these slippers first. They are my mother's.

I'll buy you a new pair when I go to the supermarket in a bit.

No need, it's a waste, no need.

Rao Jing was going too far. How much did she let you drink?

The rules of the Development Department really need to be changed.

Don't criticize her. Ms. Rao is quite formidable.

She took you out for drinks.

But she didn't take good care of you, the little one.

I'm not a little one, I'm about to get married.

Hot, so hot.

I said I was hot.

Really good-looking.

♫ You're the streetlight waiting for me ♫

♫ My fast heartbeat ♫

I've always been too embarrassed to tell you.

Actually, you've grown right into my aesthetic.

Eyes are good-looking.

Nose is good-looking.

The mouth is also so good-looking.

Everything looks good.

If it weren't for you being so good-looking,

how could I possibly agree to get married just like that?

You mustn't think I'm shallow.

♫ The fireworks over my heart never cease ♫

♫ Maybe it is you ♫

♫ No one knows ♫

♫ Baby, it is you ♫

♫ I hope you know ♫

If you dare to touch me like that again…

[Chang Yi] Yuheng, I heard there was a new medicine abroad.

It's very helpful for Auntie's condition.

It's just that the price isn't cheap. Be prepared.

Thank you.

Is all of this real?

Where is this?

These boxes were delivered by same-city express by mom and dad yesterday.

You changed into the pajamas yourself.

The toiletries are all in the bathroom.

There is breakfast on the table.

Next to it are the keys to the house.

Lastly, this is my home.

It's also our home. Ji Yuheng.

Our home.

Jiang has been fired.

Go back.

[Manager's Office]

Mr. Zhao, it's too early, isn't it?

Jiang cares a lot about saving face.

Zhou Kai was taught by him personally.

Being shady is like slapping him in the face.

He was fired because of this.

Who will call the shots in our department in the future?

It's said that a new leader is coming.

They are also merging us with Division Two.

Merging with Xing.

And there's an unfamiliar "parachuter" coming in.

How is one supposed to live with this?

[Dairui Bank]

Zhao Nan, how come you're here?

Xiaoning, I've come to the Development Department to deliver some materials.

Haven't seen you in so long, I've missed you.

Today at noon,

do you want to have lunch here? My treat.

To have a taste of your cafeteria.

You're so good at saving money for me? Let's go.

Xiaoning, how is it going in the new department?

It's alright.

Look, these are some new photos I took.

Let's go have some ice cream.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I'll have a little bit of everything.

Done.

[Name: Tu Xiaoning]

Auntie, I want this one.

Xiaoning, sit down. Let's eat.

Okay.

Mr. Ji, what happened to the scratch on your neck?

Do you have a girlfriend now?

[His Sincerity]

[Property Ownership Certificate] Uncle, Auntie, these are all my documents.

There's the house ownership, degree certificate,

Certificate of No Criminal Record, credit records,

and the bank statement of recent years.

I know this approach might be somewhat inappropriate.

But this is the quickest way I could think of

for you to get to know me.

You've prepared quite comprehensively.

Here, you have a seat first.

Sit down.

Okay.

Actually, Xiaoning and I didn't just meet recently.

We were high school classmates.

This time, it's a long-awaited reunion.

You knew each other since high school?

Yes.

Uncle, Auntie, you should still remember this umbrella, right?

This is our company's umbrella.

- How did you…? - There was a time

when I felt especially helpless and lost.

This umbrella was given to me by Xiaoning.

She gave me a lot of hope.

I've always treasured it.

You mean to say

that after all these years, you did not forget her.

Why are you only saying this now?

Xiaoning was never single before.

And I have just returned from abroad.

The most important point is,

I know she has started to go on blind dates frequently recently.

Does Xiaoning know about your feelings all these years?

I haven't told her, afraid of scaring her.

I just told her I wanted to get married

to settle down first.

Ji,

I have a question.

You proposed to Xiaoning.

Did she say yes?

Xiaoning is indeed still considering it.

Honestly, your conditions

definitely exceed the standards of most parents for choosing a son-in-law.

But that doesn't include us.

That's right. Xiaoning is our daughter.

But she is also an independent individual.

We respect all her decisions,

including marriage, especially marriage.

Her preferences are our biggest criteria for choice.

If she chooses you,

our whole family will definitely accept it wholeheartedly.

But if she rejects you,

don't think you can win her over in a roundabout way.

We will definitely not force her

to do anything she doesn't like.

Right.

Do you understand?

Yes, I understand.

♫ The night swallows the dusk ♫
