BASED ON THE NOVEL EVERYONE LOVES ME BY QIAO YAO

You've worked hard during this time.

It's my treat today.

It's time to relax.

-Thank you, Mr. Jiang. -Thank you, Mr. Jiang.

-Hello, please get me some water. -Okay.

Xinyi.

Why isn't Yue Qianling here

for our gathering?

Huang Jie from Project Department One is celebrating her birthday today.

They agreed to hang out.

So it's Huang Jie's birthday today.

Do you want to order anything else?

No. Just order what you guys want.

I can't take the day off tomorrow.

-Thank you. -Come this way, please.

-This is the table you reserved. -Okay.

Qianling.

-What a coincidence. -Are you guys here too?

Did you pick this place as well?

Today is Huang Jie's birthday.

Let's celebrate it together.

-Yes, join us. -Yes, join us.

-Come. Join us. -Okay.

Excuse me. Please take care of this for me.

Thank you.

Come. Let's move over. Here.

I heard the company is setting up a matchmaking event.

Which of you are going?

I think all of us are going.

Every single person must attend.

We must climb the IT industry's social ladder.

What social ladder?

There's a strange phenomenon

about men in the IT industry.

The ones at the top of the hierarchy

are not the most capable programmers.

Instead, they are the ones who are capable and have a wife.

Below them

are programmers with girlfriends.

At the very bottom

are the single programmers.

What? I have a girlfriend.

Mr. Wei has a wife.

Xiaoshu even has children.

All of you are good at hiding your love life.

We're the only two left.

Will you go?

I'm not going.

My girlfriend is strict.

-Girlfriend? -Girlfriend?

-When did that happen? -How sneaky, Mr. Gu.

-You've been hiding it, Mr. Gu. -Mr. Gu, what a surprise.

-Yes. -Share it with us.

-Tell us, Mr. Gu. -Mr. Gu.

-You're sneaky. -Qianling!

Qianling, I'm here!

Huang Jie.

I'm over here.

All of them happen to be here. Why don't we eat together?

Yes, join us.

-What a coincidence. Hello. -Hello.

My budget is only 300 yuan.

I can't cover for so many people.

Don't worry.

Mr. Jiang is treating everyone.

Eat all you want.

Good.

Here. Sit here.

Then...

It's my treat today.

Think of it as a present from the Ninth Business Unit.

Thank you then.

Don't be so polite. Sit.

Thank you.

What were you talking about? You were so fired up.

Mr. Gu said

he has a girlfriend.

Yes.

Mr. Gu has a girlfriend. How come I didn't know that?

-It's a secret. -There should be no secrets between us.

-Yes. -A secret?

-We'll know eventually. -Why keep it a secret?

-What for? -What's the point?

Tell us.

Mr. Gu, we didn't know you had a girlfriend.

Shouldn't you show us a picture of her?

Everyone wants to see her, right?

-Yes! -Yes!

-Picture! -Picture!

Mr. Gu!

Is there really a picture?

I'm sure she's beautiful.

Forget it.

My girlfriend is shy.

How boring.

-No wonder. -What a party pooper.

I tried to set Mr. Gu up with someone once,

but he said she was not his type

without even looking at her picture.

So it's because he had already met his type.

You had an ideal type, didn't you?

I can't really say she was my type.

I can only say...

that the way my girlfriend is

became my ideal type.

I'm so jealous.

-Let's drink. -Save me.

-I have goosebumps. -So jealous.

-I'm so jealous. -Amazing.

I feel so jealous.

-I'm envious. -Let's drink.

-Let's drink. -Let's drink.

Well,

today is Huang Jie's birthday.

I bought you a cake.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

Please bring the cake. Thank you.

Happy birthday!

-Thank you. -Here.

-I love all the strawberries. -Let's light the candle

and sing a birthday song for Huang Jie.

Thank you, everyone.

-Cheers! -Cheers!

It's about time. Let's go home.

Excuse me, please give me the bill.

It has been paid.

I'm treating everyone

on behalf of my girlfriend.

Thank you, Mr. Gu!

-Thank you! -Thank you, Mr. Gu!

-Let's go. We're going the same way. -Okay.

Why do I not know

that you have your girlfriend's photo?

Do you want to see it?

I've seen Into the Light Blue as well.

I like the selected works.

They really show the suffocation

and mysteriousness of the deep sea.

Right?

I think so too. Look.

Take this octopus, for example.

If we change its form

and add some scales,

a deep sea monster will be born.

That's true.

To be honest,

I've always wanted to add an underwater map

to Hero's Path.

The monsters

with the lightning patterns

can be added to...

Su Zheng.

The battle system you submitted yesterday

needs to be upgraded again.

Please revise it again.

Let's talk after I'm done.

Qianling.

This is the character armor reference diagram I mentioned.

Take a look.

What?

He never mentioned any armor.

HAVING COFFEE ON AN EMPTY STOMACH IS NO GOOD

THERE ARE SNACKS IN THE TOP DRAWER

Having coffee on an empty stomach is no good.

There are snacks in the top drawer.

Don't drink too much milk tea.

There are other options in the second drawer.

I bought you a new mug.

It's in the break room.

OUT OF SERVICE

YOU ARE HERE

Mr. Gu, your taste

is rather cute.

I want to drink coffee brewed by my girlfriend.

Okay.

You're both here.

Are you here for coffee?

-Yes. -Yes.

I asked her to make coffee for me.

She makes good coffee.

Do you want some?

It's okay. I'm going to the toilet.

Be careful. It's hot.

To amend this segment,

can I ask for more time?

I can put in a request.

Do you think three days are enough?

-Hello. -Jiang Junnan.

We broke up.

Stop disturbing me

and don't send me flowers anymore.

Flowers?

When did I send you...

They're the flowers you told me to buy last time.

Although we broke up, we're still friends.

It's your birthday today.

Giving you flowers as a friend is nothing weird, right?

Okay.

I'll accept this bouquet.

-In the future, don't... -Don't worry.

It won't happen again.

Like you said,

let's end on a good note.

I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang.

I forgot about them.

Think carefully now.

What else have you not canceled?

There's the restaurant you asked me to reserve last time.

You were going to bring her there today.

I forgot to cancel that as well.

Being my secretary sure is tough.

Since it can't be canceled,

let's go together.

It's my treat.

Is that all?

Yes. All the dishes are here.

Did I order too much?

No.

Since we're here,

let's eat and drink to our heart's content.

-Cheers. -Okay.

Let me try this.

You chose a great place.

This is delicious.

They're all my favorites.

That's good.

Look at this pork chop. It looks nice.

We'll take one each. Let's finish them.

Here.

Our target for today

is to finish all the dishes here

and finish this bottle of wine.

-We can't leave till we finish. -But...

Come.

Cheers.

Are you trying to raise a fish in there?

Look.

The fish is even blowing bubbles. Look.

The fish is jumping out.

That's right.

Drink up.

Let me fill your glass again.

I'll pour. Tell me when to stop.

Stop.

That's...

Have some more.

It's not much.

-That's enough, Mr. Jiang. -Okay.

Finish it.

Let's eat.

You really made a great choice.

Mr. Jiang.

Didn't you say we'll take one each?

Sorry, I forgot.

Hello, Ms. Chen.

This is the cake you ordered.

Leave it here.

Okay.

Thank you.

Very good.

You're very attentive to detail.

After working with you for so long,

I know you quite well.

Do you?

Tell me more.

Tell you more?

You're stubborn

when it comes to food.

-Pork chops, right? -Yes.

You always order that,

along with the sweet and spicy sauce.

Thank you.

On the surface,

you seem like a carefree person.

But deep down,

you're very softhearted.

You always put others first

and put yourself last.

You argued with Mr. Gu

not because you were angry with him.

You just wanted to avoid making things awkward.

In fact,

you care about him a lot.

Does that mean you and Gu Xun were acting?

Director Chen?

You know me so well. Don't tell me that you like me.

Do you

really have a crush on me?

GU XUN

Hello, Mom. I'm out right now.

I'll go back immediately.

Are you crazy?

Well, my mother...

I can go back on my own.

Go and do what you have to do.

Chen Xinyi, are you a fool?

Why did you...

It'll be so awkward with him from now on.

Well, I've said it anyway.

I can't take it back now.

We'll hang out normally

and work together normally.

As long as I don't feel awkward,

he'll be the one embarrassing himself.

Young lady,

why are you all alone today?

Where's your boyfriend?

-He... -It's okay.

This is for you.

Remember to smile.

Take it.

-Thank you. -Don't mention it.

-Go on. -Thank you.

Recently, Su Zheng and I

were inspired by a magazine called Ocean Photography.

We want to create an underwater map

so the style of Hero's Path

can be more diverse.

What do you think?

No wonder you're always with Su Zheng these days.

What did you say?

Nothing.

I'm saying that you're doing the concept art team's work.

I actually found it fun

when I created the weapon last time.

Do you want to take up the challenge?

Can I do it?

Are you willing to become

Hero's Path's concept artist?

Yes.

It's burning.

Why are you here?

I'm crashing with you today. Why else am I here?

It's inconvenient.

Why? Your girlfriend isn't home.

Yue Qianling? Why are you here?

Don't you know that Gu Xun has a girlfriend?

It's not right for you to be here at night, is it?

I'm not blaming you,

but he'll seem like a playboy.

I'll go back first.

Be careful going home.

We're together now.

That's right. You should've just told me sooner.

You could fool anyone but me.

Leave.

Don't kick me out. It's something important. Come.

I'll tell you everything.

Here's the thing.

I have a friend.

His subordinate confessed to him recently.

Then you...

How did your friend

respond to it?

He said he wasn't sure if he liked her or not,

so...

He fled.

-He fled? -Yes.

How could he do that?

Well, he wasn't sure

if he liked her or not, so he...

Nonsense!

Your friend is so unreliable.

Not only did he make a girl confess to him,

but he couldn't even face her.

How can he call himself a man?

So you want...

So your friend wants to ask how to know

whether he has feelings for her or not.

Tell him.

It's fine if he doesn't know the answer right now.

He can take his time.

However,

don't hurt that girl.

Do you hear me?

Do you understand?

Yes.

Can I have some noodles?

-Go and eat! -I'll go.

Calm down. It's not worth it.

Let's go.

What are you doing? Someone might find out.

Such a coincidence won't happen.

Huang Jie is here.

-Qianling. -Huang Jie.

-Did you just arrive? -Yes.

Mr. Gu.

Don't you need to send your girlfriend to work?

I just did.

You sent your girlfriend to work

and then you gave your colleague a lift.

Mr. Gu,

you sure can multitask.

-Actually, we... -Mr. Gu.

Just because Qianling is pretty and naive

doesn't mean you can take her for a fool.

Because of you, Qianling has been the target

of many unfounded rumors in the company.

Can you stop being so greedy

and hurt Qianling?

Let's go.

Qianling.

If we keep hiding our relationship,

the whole company will think that I'm a cheating playboy.

You two...

You and him...

Yes, we are dating.

I knew you two were dating!

You finally admit it.

I'm sorry, Mr. Gu. I was joking just now.

I know you aren't a playboy.

Huang Jie, did you already know about this?

It's very obvious.

How could I not notice?

I already found out there was something between you two at the café.

Then why did you tease us just now?

I just wanted to see how long you can put up the act.

Stupid Qianling,

aren't we best friends?

This is huge. Why didn't you tell me?

Apart from Jiang Junnan,

you're the first person in the company who knows about it.

-Really? -Yes.

Only the two of us know?

That's more like it.

So...

Let's go.

Let's go.

Did you tell Jiang Junnan?

-How did you know? -It's not important.

Tell me everything first.

It's all my fault.

I drank too much and acted on impulse...

I swear I won't drink anymore.

You need to watch me.

But I felt relieved

after I said it.

The ball is in his court now. I don't care.

I'll just do my job as usual.

If he thinks it through

and wants to be with you,

will you agree to date him?

I'm not sure. We'll see.

Now that he knows about my feelings,

it actually feels like

it's the perfect ending.

It's fine.

Now that you've confessed,

you feel better.

The choice

is in your hands now.

-Mine? -Yes.

It's okay.

Qianling.

Xinyi, let me borrow Qianling for a bit.

Come here.

-I'm going then. -Go.

Come here.

Why are you acting all mysterious?

These are for you.

What are these?

I don't want them.

How can you not want them?

I bought you the latest designs.

They'll look good on you.

I don't think so.

Don't be shy.

Think about it. You have a boyfriend now.

Mr. Gu looks cool on the outside,

but perhaps deep inside...

No.

Not at all.

Trust me.

You might

be thanking me tomorrow.

Qianling.

My laptop charger is broken.

I'm going out to buy one.

Wait for me. I'm getting changed.

Okay.

Gu...

It looks nice.

Do you like it?

I like it a lot.

Then...

I can lend it to you if you want.

There's no need. I...

I'm heading out.

Isn't this

too sexy?

-Hello. -Qianling.

Can you send me

the compressed file of Lin Zhi's key animations?

It's urgent. Can you make it quick?

Okay. Let me find it.

Compressed file...

Qianling.

What's wrong?

Fan Xing asked me to send her Lin Zhi's drawings.

But I forgot to bring my laptop back.

She said it was urgent.

Just use the computer at my place.

Okay.

So? Did you receive it?

It's still sending. Please wait.

Fan Xing, I've sent you the compressed file.

Remember to check your inbox.

Let me know if you need anything else.

It was no trouble at all.

Don't mention it.

It's all done.

Gu Xun, are you back?

Ma'am.

You are...

I am Gu Xun's mother.

Hello, Mrs. Gu.

I'm Gu Xun's neighbor.

My laptop broke down, so I came here to borrow his.

His laptop was on the bed, so I came in...

You must be Qianling.

I was classmates with your mother.

That's right.

My mother mentioned you.

Hello, Mrs. Gu.

-Your sleeping gown... -I...

I don't normally wear this.

There's no need to be nervous.

I'm pretty open-minded.

I like the design of your sleeping gown.

It looks good on you.

Mrs. Gu.

If you like it,

why don't I buy one for you too?

Sure.

I wear a large size.

Let me transfer the money to you.

-There's no need. -Let's add each other on WeChat.

Just give me your address.

-You don't need to pay me. -Scan my QR code.

GU YUNPING

ADD TO CONTACTS

GU XUN

I bought the charger.

Are you waiting for me at home?

Well...

Your mother is here.

Mom.

I thought you were home.

Where did you go?

Come back immediately.

I'll come back immediately.

Hurry.

Well, Mrs. Gu,

Gu Xun will be back soon.

Why don't I

make you some tea?

Okay.

Let's go outside.

-Qianling. -Yes?

Are you and Gu Xun...

Yes.

That's good.

Are you already

living together now?

No.

Actually, I live across from him.

I get it.

Qianling.

Would you mind

settling down with Gu Xun early on?

Mom.

You're back.

What brings you here?

I'm here to visit you.

Am I not welcome?

Why don't I

go home first?

You can have a chat with Gu Xun, Mrs. Gu.

Qianling, don't go.

Stay and eat with me.

I've brought some delicious food.

Okay.

Let me go back and get changed.

-Sure. -Great.

Not bad.

You little brat.

You finally got it straight.

Your girlfriend is so pretty.

So what does Qianling like to eat?

Qianling? She...

She's fine with anything.

She likes everything.

Everything?

Listen.

I'm really quite fond of Qianling.

She's also my classmate's daughter.

You must treat her well.

Let me tell you.

If you dare to break her heart,

I won't forgive you.

Don't worry, Mom.

Let me go and check on Qianling.

Go.

Qianling.

I'm not wearing any clothes!

What did my mother tell you just now?

She asked if we were living together

and asked me when we would be settling down.

It was so sudden for me and my mind went blank.

I didn't know how to reply to her.

Did she ask you where you worked?

No.

When my mother asks about work,

tell her we're working in the AI department

at Polar Star Technology.

Okay.

Mom.

We're back.

Mom?

Mom.

This is what you're working on?

Mom, listen to me.

Yes or no?

Yes.

Mom.

Mom, listen to me. Mom.

Mom!

I know I lied.

I promised not to get involved in games.

-But Dad actually... -Don't mention him!

I'll give you two options.

One,

resign.

Two,

you're no longer my son.

It'll be okay.

Perhaps your mother got carried away by her emotions.

Give her a couple of days to calm down

before you apologize to her.

I'm sorry.

Thank you, Mr. Jiang.

Are you going to keep a tortoise in the office?

It fell sick recently.

I can't leave it home alone during the day,

so I want to look after it here.

Is it not allowed?

No, that's not it. Let me help you.

It's okay.

Don't worry, Mr. Jiang.

This won't affect my work.

Where did this tortoise come from? It's so cute.

I've had it ever since I moved out of your place.

You also know my character.

I don't have many friends,

so I talk to it at home.

However, Coconut fell sick recently.

I'm quite worried.

What kind of sickness?

Shell rot.

-It's common among tortoises. -Work on it a bit more.

What can you do?

Why don't I go to the vet with you after work?

I was considering it too.

TORTOISE, SHELL ROT

TREATING TORTOISES' SHELL ROT CORRECTLY IS IMPORTANT

HOW TO TREAT SHELL ROT

SHELL ROT CAN BE HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS...

THE NINTH BUSINESS UNIT, EXECUTIVE PRODUCER

Is it in pain?

Don't touch it.

It needs sunlight to heal. You're blocking the sun.

The sun can help it heal. UV rays can kill bacteria effectively.

Apply erythromycin ointment.

Pay attention to the water quality.

Why do you care so much about it?

I kept a tortoise when I was young.

I just can't stand seeing you rear it with a non-scientific approach.

Xinyi, if you have any questions, ask me.

I know everything.

This tortoise is very important to Xinyi.

Xinyi, don't listen to him.

To be safe, I'll go to the vet with you after work.

No! You can't go to the hospital. That is even more dangerous.

All the germs might cause cross-infection.

Xinyi, what do you think?

Mr. Jiang, you have a meeting in ten minutes.

I sent the document to you. Have you read it?

I'll take a look.

Why is Jiang Junnan acting so weirdly?

I know, right?

Forget about him.

Stella.

You must carefully consider

the problem I told you just now.

Mr. Wang.

This is the latest proposal.

Gu Xun.

You came at the right time.

Stella and I are discussing your department.

Look.

The company has invested a lot into Hero's Path in the last year.

Until now,

we haven't made a single cent.

Since there's a hype surrounding the game now,

let's do a pre-sale.

We have no plan to do that as of now.

Well, the situation has changed.

Hero's Path has burned a lot of money.

It's time for it to bring something back for the company.

I disagree.

Why is that?

International game developers all do it,

but we can't?

Unless

you don't think you can succeed.

You want to reap the profit

of a triple-A game within a year.

That's impossible for any game developer.

But don't worry.

Our current progress

is ahead of the three-year schedule stipulated in the contract.

I'm certain

that the profit and fame we'll bring to the company

will also exceed your expectations.

Enough. Don't give me a pie in the sky.

Just tell me.

Can we do a pre-sale

to recover some funds right now?

No.

Mr. Wang.

At this stage,

I agree with Gu Xun's decision.

You can't view the problem from your perspective alone.

You need to consider the interests of the company and its shareholders.

Stella, it's never easy to swallow good advice.

Think about it yourself.

-This place is really good. -Yes.

Hello.

Hello, the medicine you bought is here.

Please come downstairs to pick it up.

Medicine? I didn't order any medicine.

Are you Ms. Chen?

The last four digits of your number is 2825.

Yes.

That's right then.

I'm downstairs right now.

Please come and pick it up.

Okay. Please wait. I'm coming now.

ARRIVING IN ONE MINUTE, AIXIN PET CLINIC

It's so late. Why are you still here?

It's the document you need for your meeting tomorrow.

I want to print it out for you first.

Is the printer stuck?

The paper is jammed.

It's okay.

I'll call someone to repair it.

It's okay. I can fix such a small matter.

Mr. Jiang.

You've been acting weirdly these two days.

Don't overthink the whole thing.

Previously,

I did have feelings for you,

but they're gone now.

Now, I only look up to you

because you're my superior.

Don't dwell on it.

That's not what I meant.

It's so late now and we're the only ones here.

If people catch wind of this,

it'll make you look bad.

It's okay. We have nothing to hide. What's there to be afraid of?

Then I'll do it.

Okay.

Help me pull this.

Okay. This?

Yes.

No.

This one.

Pull it.

I'll go home after I get a document.
