Original subtitles

At the beginning of the year, there will be

many invited coverage from big brands and companies.

There will be many experienced editors gathering in new media.

Yijia's public account still hasn't found a suitable writer.

Gu Yi, you can take on the role for now. Work together with Penny

on all the work arrangements.

A newly onboarded advertising client

has requested for an inter-company event.

The client will come from Hangzhou in two days.

Familiarize with the materials beforehand.

There may be a topical meeting.

The remaining work will follow the schedule I assigned before the New Year.

We will continue working as usual.

Meeting adjourned.

Jacqueline is both a workaholic and a control freak.

Don't learn from her. Our nature is different.

I'm not working overtime today.

I have a performance tonight.

Great, I'll come and support you.

Leave all the work to Zhi.

Okay.

Intern, do more work.

Okay.

Hello everyone, I'm Gu Yi.

As for me, I grew up in an ordinary family.

But recently, I received a very high-end project

to write promotional materials for a foreign real estate development.

What is the slogan?

"15-minute walk to Hyde Park.

Experience the culture of Cambridge University and Oxford University."

I don't understand.

What does this mean?

How do I promote this?

What makes this house special?

There isn't even a subway station nearby.

How do people usually commute to work?

And also, it's not in a good school district.

Their children can't really go to Cambridge University.

What's the use of being close?

The surrounding facilities are also poor.

Lanzhou noodles, Sha County snacks, braised chicken with rice.

You must have something like that.

It's so frustrating.

I have some bad news to tell everyone.

Our performance

at Ounce

is going to be canceled.

Don't cry.

It's not your fault.

It's true that our little theater

has always struggled.

The host, Uncle Lu,

has told many jokes about paying off debts on stage.

I thought they were all jokes at first.

Until one day,

he came to me to borrow money to pay off debts.

And then, there's Yu Du Le.

When he's not performing on stage,

he takes on odd jobs to make some extra money.

But most of the money he earns goes to supporting Ounce.

He's already 30 years old,

but his only personal possession

is an electric scooter.

When he confessed his love to his girlfriend, she rejected him outright,

saying, "I'm afraid you'll sell me to support Ounce."

As for me, it's even worse.

No money, no love.

I can't even tell jokes anymore.

I usually work just to gather materials for jokes.

Now, I have the materials

but no stage.

But it's okay without a stage

because I have all of you.

What use are you guys?

Okay.

I'm not saying all this to be pitiful.

I just want to say something witty

and bid farewell to everyone.

Wishing everyone a happy day

and hoping that even if you're no longer visiting Ounce,

you can still have a wonderful night.

Thank you all.

Thank you, everyone!

If you want to cry, just cry.

We have been through the fountain together.

Don't worry about embarrassing yourself in front of me.

I have been performing at Ounce for five years.

And now, suddenly, Ounce is to be permanently closed.

I won't be able to tell jokes anymore.

It's okay.

Even if you don't do stand-up comedy,

you will always shine in my heart.

Thank you, Mr. Xu.

Why are you suddenly giving me a "good person" card?

I'm not!

I really want to thank you.

Thank you for always being with me during this time,

talking to me,

and even going crazy with me.

You don't have to thank me.

If you really want to thank me,

be my girlfriend.

I don't want to give you time to consider.

Because, if you think too much, you'll most likely reject me.

I don't want to take the risk.

So,

it may be presumptuous,

but I suddenly want to ask you,

Gu Yi,

will you be my girlfriend?

No, you can't.

You can't.

What are you doing here?

I'm back.

You can't accept his confession.

You're back and remembered me again?

Liang Dai Wen.

It was you who pushed me away in the first place.

And, it was you who left without a word.

And now, suddenly, you've appeared again.

Are you always this free?

Do you have some kind of immunity with me?

Gu Yi.

I came back for you.

Stop talking.

You don't remember what I said at the airport?

I don't want to see you again in the future.

- Gu Yi. - You came and left as you wished.

During this time, I've been caring for Gu Yi.

I didn't wait just for you to stir things up.

Now, I can feel some things. Although it's not much,

it's enough to distinguish basic emotions.

After I landed, I didn't go anywhere.

The first thing I did was come to see you.

- Gu Yi, I want to... - Liang Dai Wen.

Pastries can also expire if left for too long.

What makes you think that people's feelings won't change?

It's up to you if you want to stay in the past.

I'm not obligated to wait for you.

What are you doing? Has your soul been taken away by someone?

I'm working on a proposal, Mom.

(Party B agrees to pay compensation...)

(The amount is 1,200,000 yuan...)

(HF Design Company HR Department)

(It's okay, thanks.)

(What are you doing?)

(Gu Yi)

(Madam Mei Xia)

Hello, Madam.

(Liang.)

(Did I interrupt you?)

(Are you at home?)

Yes, Madam.

I just got back to Donghai.

(What a coincidence, I just got back to Donghai too.)

(When can we meet and chat?)

Sure, Madam.

Is Gu Yi doing well?

(I don't plan to ask about your relationship.)

(Anyway, Gu Yi stayed at your house for such a long time before.)

(And, you even gave up your bedroom for me.)

(My daughter and I should show our gratitude, right?)

No need to be polite, Madam.

You're welcome to come anytime.

(Okay then.)

(By the way. Don't tell Gu Yi that I came.)

(Okay.)

Gu Yi. I passed the probation!

Congratulations! Let me treat you to coffee tomorrow.

Thank you.

By the way, what do regular employees do?

Nothing much.

We plan, propose, interview, write, edit, take the blame,

communicate, liaise with clients,

please the client, and be controlled by the boss.

In short, you can't go west when the leader points east.

You have to do whatever the leader tells you to do.

Why do I feel like I signed a contract to sell myself?

Work hard.

I have something to do outside.

I'm selling myself.

Selling yourself?

My partner has limited mobility.

So, we need an assistant.

I see you studied design at Harvard.

You should be qualified for this job.

Is it because my resume doesn't meet the requirements?

Education, language, and drawing skills.

You excel in all aspects.

But as you can see,

our company is very small.

You probably won't have room for advancement.

I saw it.

So, can I start working now?

Yes. My partner will be here in two days.

Choose a spot first.

Okay.

Dai Wen.

Why do you have such a cute habit?

It doesn't match you at all.

Give it to me.

Put it down for me.

Why?

Stingy.

It's so precious.

Your girlfriend gave it to you?

Does this have anything to do with work?

Why do you talk to girls like this?

Can you win over the person you like?

Just by looking at you, I can tell you don't understand a girl's thoughts.

Let me make a guess.

When she made the first move,

you kept rejecting her.

Now that she's given up,

you want to win her back.

Am I right? I'm also a girl. Maybe I can help you.

It was given to me by the person I like.

But maybe,

because of my personality,

she's really mad at me right now.

Understood.

I can help you win her back.

But I have one condition.

If she clearly rejects you,

then you can consider dating me.

My methods always work.

So, how can you help?

Appeal to her interests.

Have you swiped Douyin?

To be honest,

what does this song mean?

- I don't understand it at all. - You don't need to understand.

It's the most popular Chinese-style anime song

among young people nowadays.

A recording sample tailored for your girlfriend.

I really want to record that mature woman's voice.

When can I officially record it? Do I need to sign a contract first?

Xu Guan Rui has been busy lately.

Familiarize yourself with the recording sample first.

After he's done with his stuff,

we can talk in detail.

Thank you, Ms. Gu.

Let me tell you something.

Liang Dai Wen is back.

Did you meet him? How was it?

How was it?

Did you know he came back?

I told him you were at Ounce.

He ran to find you as soon as he got off the plane.

Where did you meet?

At the back door.

And at that time, Xu Guan Rui was still confessing to me.

Oh my, Gu Yi.

You can't be so shameless.

Liang is still a robot baby.

This robot baby came back from abroad specifically

to propose to Ms. Gu?

I don't know about that.

All I know is that as soon as Liang finished his work,

he rushed back to China.

His counseling treatment hasn't even been completed.

Shen said he has separation anxiety because of Gu Yi.

What did he tell you?

Ms. Gu,

as your friend,

I need to remind you

that you almost passed out from a fever.

So, be careful when going back to old love.

Can you have some faith in me?

Am I the kind of woman who always revolves around Liang Dai Wen?

You definitely are!

Who is it?

Liang?

Just take a look.

Even criminals have the right to appeal.

Role-playing, huh?

Looks like Liang's system has finally updated.

Only VIPs can see this kind of content, right?

Forward it to me.

What VIP?

Isn't this just sexual harassment?

Don't worry, I'll delete it for you.

No need, I'll delete it myself.

I have to go now.

Okay. You guys chat.

Don't forget to delete it.

Of course I will.

- Bye. - Of course? You won't. I know you too much.

I'm sure it's saved on the hard drive and watched repeatedly every day.

(Are you off work? I'm cooking. Take a look.)

(Guess what delicious meal I'm making.)

Madam.

Come on.

Let's eat.

I don't know what you like to eat.

I just made these dishes according to Gu Yi's taste.

Let's dig in!

Thank you, Madam.

Hurry up and eat.

Try it.

How is it?

It doesn't suit your taste?

No.

My mom has also made this dish before.

But it's not as delicious as yours.

You little brat.

When comparing your own mom with someone else's mom,

you should say your mom is better.

My mom has to use a wheelchair

and rarely cooks for me.

So, she's not very skilled.

My mom passed away when I was young.

I didn't understand back then.

I should have praised her cooking more.

Liang,

have you told Gu Yi about your family situation?

I've mentioned some things.

Not too much.

Why didn't you tell her?

Are you afraid she won't understand? Or is there no need to tell her?

I'm also a mother.

Seeing Gu Yi suffer for you,

to be honest, I feel even worse than her.

When I first saw you, I really wanted to scold you.

But when I heard you say that,

I don't think you're an immature child.

I believe that you have your reasons for not revealing your situation.

But if you don't tell Gu Yi, she won't know.

If you don't communicate with her when the two of you are together,

misunderstandings will arise.

Am I right? What's the point of having a mouth?

You have to talk to her.

Otherwise, what's the use of having a mouth? Just donate it.

Madam, I know I was wrong.

But I really like Gu Yi.

Tell me the truth.

What's wrong with you?

How did you end up with Gu Yi?

Is alexithymia considered something wrong?

What do you mean?

Simply put, it means that my emotions are not easily perceived,

and I have difficulty expressing them.

It gives people the impression that I am cold and distant,

just like a emotionless robot.

After my mother passed away,

I became like this.

But don't worry,

I have been working hard to treat it for years.

It has improved a lot.

You must have suffered a lot after your mother passed away.

Okay, don't be upset.

Your biological mother is gone.

But I am here.

Madam,

don't you mind?

Why should I mind?

As long as Gu Yi is willing,

I have no objections.

Okay,

hurry up and eat.

Here, have some more.

But Madam,

Gu Yi is not willing to accept me.

She's still mad at me.

Anyone would be unwilling.

To be fair,

you are the one in the wrong.

I'm not taking sides.

Okay. Hurry up and eat.

Go ahead.

(Tell me.)

(Why did you suddenly come back?)

Tell me.

Are you still running away?

Are you still going abroad?

Liang Dai Wen.

Are you serious this time?

About the performance of the virtual bands,

I broke the traditional way of performing with bands.

Especially this time, the audience needs to have an offline experience.

The audience is the main focus.

About our use of virtual reality technology, including tablets

and other advertising materials,

I think you should have a good conversation with the advertisers.

Offline advertising business has always been independent.

This time, the budget is included

in our public relations expenses for this year.

All the virtual bands featured in this domestic exhibition

are to be managed by Xu Guan Rui.

After the bands are signed and confirmed,

interviews will be conducted to complement the content.

Please note that our interviews

should not just treat the virtual bands

as a gimmick.

We need to focus on creating in-depth content.

After the bands are virtualized, the performance format...

I'll go get some coffee.

Will change significantly.

Through this live broadcast, we must control

the pace of gaining followers online.

This is comprehensive data.

You need to fully report the increase in followers with the advertisers.

- Gu Yi. - Thank you.

Clearly divide it comprehensively.

Just two cups?

Also, there is a message.

- You need to communicate with the advertisers... - Gu Yi.

One cup is watermelon.

One cup is cantaloupe.

And, you are my little fool.

About traditional media advertising...

Liang Dai Wen.

Gu Yi. One is pork. One is beef.

You are my sweetheart.

Gu Yi.

This is omelette rice. This is fried rice.

You are my arsonist of love.

This is mashed potatoes.

This is corn.

Don't forget that I love you.

(Incoming, Gu Yi)

Liang Dai Wen.

You're being unreasonable, aren't you?

- What did I do? - (What did you do?)

Stop ordering takeout first before you say anything.

I wonder why I never noticed before

that you're so good at being unreasonable.

(I just wanted to buy you some snacks.)

But it's not convenient to send them directly to your house.

That would be impolite.

Is it polite for you to say cheesy pick-up lines all over the office?

(Come on, bro.)

(All my colleagues and clients are in a meeting.)

Stop eating!

(I'm sorry. I didn't know you were in a meeting.)

But you're ignoring me first.

Okay.

You just recovered from a serious illness,

and now you're going crazy, right?

I'm not a patient.

Alexithymia is just a type of personality.

But I can't leave you.

You shut up.

If you say one more word, I'll block you.

Say one more word, and I'll shut up.

Can I

come see you?

No, you can't.

Send me your address. I'll come see you.

Zhi,

spit it out. I need to return it to someone.

I'm here to return the items. Don't let this happen again. I'm leaving.

Gu Yi.

Why didn't you reply to my messages and block me?

You won't even see me.

You're even so cold when talking to me.

I'm just doing what you did to me before.

What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?

What can I do to make you feel better?

I promise I can do it.

Gu Yi.

As long as you don't ignore me,

I can do anything for you.

Dai Wen, did you change the electronic screen...

Dai Wen.

Is this the girl you like?

Yes.

She is the new assistant of the studio.

She just returned from Harvard.

Even if you're from Harvard, you still have to start as an assistant?

To be honest, I don't need an acceptance letter.

But I'm interested in Dai Wen.

I don't need money. So, being an assistant is fine.

You don't have to look at him.

I confessed my feelings to him during the interview.

But he only has you in his heart.

I don't like men who are indecisive.

But for efficiency's sake,

I promised him to help win you back.

If you don't agree,

he will date me.

I didn't agree.

I don't care about the agreements you have.

But Liang Dai Wen is not a bargaining chip.

And, we will handle our own issues.

I won't give up on him.

Gu Yi.

Dai Wen.

Don't send me off. Just stay.

She just said

she won't give up on me?

This means

she still likes me?

Maybe.

- Let's go. - I'll give it to you. Take it.

I don't want your money.

I have my own.

- You take it. - I don't want your money.

I have money. You keep your money to yourself.

What are you arguing about?

Uncle Yun, I thought you had gone back.

Why? You two are out here dating in this freezing weather?

You little brat.

All right. I want to talk to Uncle Yun.

Go up then.

Uncle Yun, go up and chat.

Young love, huh?

- Go. Go back first. - Fine!

Uncle Yun, you can go up later.

Bazahay!

It's not good to keep hiding it.

She will find out eventually.

It's not the right time yet.

Okay, you should go now.

Hurry up.

Eat, drink, play, have fun.

Provocation?

Throw money at her?

What kind of elementary school essay are you writing?

Didn't you say to cater to her interests?

I'm working on a strategy.

Boss.

Have you heard of Sternberg's theory of love?

The three components of love.

It's passion, intimacy, and commitment.

Passion comes first.

Do you know when a man who practices abstinence is most attractive?

When he releases his primal hormones.

Be wild. Be sexy.

Isn't that a bit too much?

Okay. Then, you can wait patiently.

Wait for three to five years until she calms down.

Then, you can live happily together,

provided, by that time, she hasn't been chased away by someone else.

Do you have any faster way?

(Gu Yi, what's going on over there?)

I'm doing laundry.

What's wrong?

(Liang Studio's first round of seminar is tomorrow.)

(We need to show our support. You have to go.)

You don't have to create opportunities for us anymore.

I'm not the only one who likes him.

(Don't overthink it. Liang is very serious.)

(He just wants you now.)

He has changed a lot now.

He has regained his social sense.

His emotions are also more abundant.

When I first met him,

he's at an elementary school level.

Now, he's at least at junior high or high school level.

Maybe in a while, he'll go straight to getting his maters or PhD.

(It took a lot of effort for Liang to evolve.)

(And, you're now not used to it? Do you have a masochistic tendency?)

It doesn't matter to me what version he evolves into.

I've already moved on.

(Okay then. I'm going to start my live stream.)

(If you've really moved on, then make a clean break.)

(At least make it clear to Liang.)

(Otherwise, if this goes on, you won't even be able to be friends.)

(Do you want that?)

This friend who accuses me of being hypocritical,

I just checked your profile a moment ago.

How come you're so young yet already harboring misogyny?

Were you not educated well by your family?

Also,

you asked how I can have a boyfriend having such an appearance.

You, an internet troll, is also issued an ID, right?

The society is very tolerant now.

But I am not your family.

I will not spoil you.

Today, I will treat it as charity

and educate you on behalf of your family.

Don't think that you can say whatever you want behind a screen.

Xin.

Xin.

You are...

You ran into me today.

I won't argue with internet trolls. You know that, right?

Unless you are...

Xin.

Who are you guys?

I am her mother.

Dad.

Mom.

How did you guys get here?

Your mom misses you.

We happened to have a vacation so we came to see you.

Hello.

I am Xin's boyfriend.

My name is Yu Du Le.

I didn't know you were coming before,

so I didn't prepare any gift.

Xin, let the outsiders step aside for a moment.

I have something to ask you.

Well, then I'll leave first.

You guys go on.
