= Episode 18 =

Lu Jin.

Thank you.

Good night.

Wait.

Gu Shengnan called you

on the celebration day and I answered it.

I didn’t tell you this.

And I deleted the call log.

I know I shouldn’t do this,

but I just couldn’t help it.

Because I knew

you would leave me

once you receive that call.

I thought

I still got a chance.

I want to apologize to you.

Sorry.

I asked the doctor.

The surgery went well.

With proper rest,

your grandpa will be discharged soon.

Thank you, Ziqian.

I really appreciate it.

Don’t mention it.

Actually, I’m very happy

to be by your side during these days.

I hope I can stay with you

all the time in the future.

Shengnan.

Here.

= Private Kitchen Design =

You’ve always wanted to

run a private kitchen, have you?

This is the design drawing I made.

I hope to have a place of mine

in your future.

Do you trust me?

Sorry, Ziqian.

I will pay back the medical fee

as soon as I can.

I’m sorry.

I really am.

Miss Gu.

Do you think

he’ll be happy

by giving up his huge business

to be with you?

Sorry.

My snot and tears will dirty your clothes.

I’m your tissue.

Wipe as you wish.

Let me drive you home.

No need, I can go back by myself.

You barely slept last night.

You can’t ride.

Let me drive you.

I’ll go back by myself.

I said I will go back by myself.

Why are you doing this to me?

Why didn’t you tell me

that your grandpa had such a big surgery?

And the high cost of the surgery,

- how can you bear it alone?

- Ziqian helped.

I will pay him back the money.

I will pay him back by myself.

I’m your boyfriend.

What is mine is all yours!

Cut it off.

I know what I am to you.

My mother said something to you, did she?

No.

Excuse me. Is this bike still in use?

- No.

- Yes.

Use it yourself.

Thanks.

I’ll take you home to have a good rest,

and then we talk.

Sorry.

I’m sorry

for not being by your side

when your grandpa was sick.

You must have

suffered a lot.

It’s all my fault.

I’m sorry for this.

But now I’m back.

Back to your side.

We will face and solve

all problems

together.

I will never leave again.

Please stop being mad at me.

Alright?

Okay, tell me,

who do you want to be,

Liu Bang or Xiang Yu?

Why do you ask me this suddenly?

Winner takes all.

I’ll go for Liu Bang.

Does it matter?

Let’s go. I’m tired.

Lu Jin must be

too busy at work.

Otherwise,

he wouldn’t leave in such a hurry

Uncle,

his mother is really

a piece of something.

That old cat

never…

Who is it?

Work. A client.

Hello?

Tell me.

It’s just

I found Shengnan

is changed since I’m back.

She’s

keeping a distance with me deliberately,

and doesn’t accept any help from me.

I know a lot of things happened

during the time when I was away.

But I don’t know why

she is doing this to me.

That’s because

she is taking three shifts

to get money for his grandpa.

She hasn’t had a good rest for days.

Why wasn’t I

informed of the high charges

of her grandpa’s surgery?

This is

all my fault.

It’s me.

We can’t just

ask you for money

for anything.

So I paid for the hospital fee.

But for the second surgery,

the heart bridge building,

that surprised me too.

Maybe

it’s just about her pride.

She is my girlfriend.

We are… lovers.

If a woman

falls in love with a man,

she starts thinking.

Do you understand?

No, you don’t.

You were gone for so many days.

She takes care of everything

all by herself.

You think that’s what she wants?

She loves you.

So she doesn’t want to disturb you.

She’s afraid she will bother you,

and you will dislike her.

Bluntly speaking,

you didn’t make her feel secure.

Feel secure?

Feel secure.

This is not something I can help.

You have to figure it out yourself.

But now the top priority

is Grandpa’s body.

Taking good care of Grandpa

is what Shengnan cares about most now.

I see.

Thanks.

You’re welcome.

The rich eat and run too?

What a couple.

= Shengnan =

Shengnan.

Say it.

Shengnan, how does it look?

Uncle, can you stop?

I’m asking you a question.

Am I really

not good enough for Lu Jin?

No.

I’m not joking with you.

I’m not, either.

I mean it.

You two don’t match.

I asked you to break up with him

a long time ago.

Since it occurs to you now,

you might as well

take this opportunity

to break with him for good.

From then on,

he takes the open road,

and you cross the log bridge.

Don’t see each other ever.

Actually, it hasn’t gone so bad.

I just think…

I think…

You still like him, do you?

Of course, I do.

All right.

That makes it much easier.

Tell me.

What’s bothering you now?

I think,

Lu Jin and I are so distant

from each other.

Kid, you don’t understand.

I’m telling you,

distance makes freshness,

freshness makes curiosity,

and curiosity makes romance.

That’s why

he chose you

over the woman

who is on the same level with him,

family or work…

Li Man.

I see.

I get it now.

Uncle,

do you think I will hold him back?

No. No. No.

Why?

You will never

reach his back.

= Matsuhashi No. 1 =

Lu Jin,

you are back.

Mom.

I forgot to tell you.

Have you settled things in Vancouver?

Well settled.

Where are you going?

Out for a few days.

Got something to take care of.

Are you going to take care of Miss Gu

or her grandfather?

How do you know about her grandpa?

She’s the woman my son likes.

Of course, I would pay more attention.

Besides,

you put down your work and come back,

like you are ready to be the son-in-law.

So I think

it’s time for me to meet her family

to check whether they’re worthy or not.

Mom,

what have you done?

Nothing.

Just a small chat.

You told Shengnan about

Liu Bang and Xiang Yu,

who will I choose.

And hinted that

she couldn’t be Queen Lyu Zhi,

but only Concubine Yu Ji,

right?

She asked you, did she?

What was your answer?

Is it the answer she wants?

Mom, I never

disappointed you at work.

Please don’t interfere

in my personal relationship.

You won’t make it.

Whatever you’ve done

won’t stop my feelings for Shengnan.

Lu Jin.

Stay sober.

Remember,

no emotion is needed at work.

Being emotional

only makes your career a complete failure.

Maybe you are right.

But I don’t want to be

an emotionless working machine.

Sorry, Grandpa,

I may not be able to do

what I promised you before.

But I believe that Shengnan

will meet a better man than me

and have a better future.

Grandpa, take care.

Wish you recover soon.

Shengnan,

thank you for these days.

I had a happy time.

I know I’m not good enough,

so I’ve decided to study abroad.

I wish you happiness.

Take care of yourself.

Shengnan.

What are you thinking?

Come in.

Hi, Grandpa.

I came to see you.

Okay.

You brought stuff.

Just some nutritional supplements,

and your favorite tea.

Too many supplements

are not good for old people.

Yeah.

I also asked the chef to

stew some soup for you.

You didn’t cook it yourself?

No.

Okay, put it there.

Okay.

Lu,

you came right in time,

can you do me a favor?

Sure.

That chair was put

in the wrong position.

Yeah.

Do you want me to move it?

Move it here a bit.

That’s right, a little backward.

Here.

Right.

A little forward.

This okay?

I’m not talking about this one

but the bigger one.

Okay.

You want…

Direction.

Turn it around.

This way?

More.

Face the window.

Okay.

And the pot flowers.

Do you want…

Not that one.

This one.

Harder.

Good.

That okay?

Lu,

my head swirls

seeing you moving it.

Put all of these back where they were.

You can go back now.

Okay.

Don’t forget the soup.

Bye.

For the wine party in two days,

you and Zheng should come too.

Ask him to pay attention

to his appearance.

You’re not recovered yet. Don’t go.

You don’t have to do this for him.

I will talk to him sooner or later.

My body is not that important

compared to Mingting.

I didn’t expect him

to be so ruthless.

So cold-blooded,

just like his mother.

Don’t say this about Lu Jin.

There’s a reason for everything

that happens.

I was sorry for them first.

You don’t have to

speak for them.

You treat him as a son.

He never takes you as a father.

= South Entrance =

How did you come?

You said

you wanted to rest at home.

Why are you here?

I can do as you say

when I work in Bauhinia

because that’s your place.

But this is my grandpa’s place.

I didn’t mean that.

You misunderstood me.

I just want to make some help.

I can get you

two chefs from Bauhinia.

No need.

I can do it all by myself.

Just mind your own business.

I…

I’m here to help you personally.

You are my girlfriend.

You won’t refuse me, will you?

What can you do?

You are right, I can do nothing.

But I can learn.

I bet

you will give up

in less than half an hour.

Try me.

Okay.

Peel potatoes.

One more.

Easy-peasy.

Where are the waiters?

The business isn’t good recently.

So I asked them to go back

to save labor costs.

Are you playing with it?

No.

I’m doing it your way.

Stop.

You hold it reversely.

Yeah, right.

Like that.

What are you doing?

Doing operation on the shrimp?

It’s a kind of living thing.

Gotta be respectful.

Will finish soon.

Foil vermicelli. Fried rice noodles.

Good job.

Enjoy.

Waiter, please help us open the wine.

Cheers.

Hurry up, what are you doing?

Come.

Come.

What’s wrong with you?

Let’s go.

Sorry.

Let’s go.

Go.

Hey, you haven’t…

What’s happening outside?

It’s okay, they…

They paid.

Where are they?

They are all tired,

and went back home.

It’s 1 a.m..

We should rest too, right?

Let’s go.

There used to be many guests before.

It’s all you.

Me?

Why?

It’s not just us.

Look at them…

They got many guests.

So it’s all you.

It must be your poor service

that drove the guests away.

My service is not good?

Gu Shengnan,

for the first time in my life,

I opened a beer bottle for someone else,

do you know that?

For the first time in my life,

I wiped such an oily table.

Did you see that?

I did.

And I cleaned the stove

for the first time.

Like this.

I saw it. I saw it.

You worked very hard.

No, it’s okay.

Yes, I did.

Go on a date with me

in two days.

I’ll take you to a particularly fun place.

I do not have time.

We can relax.

I don’t have time.

I’m busy.

What do you want me to do?

Unless…

Unless…

Unless you make it all booked

within half an hour.

I’ll give it a thought. Okay?

Deal.

Xinjie,

you got a task.

Make Full Fry

a full house immediately.

I’ll pay for whatever

it costs.

Meng Xinjie.

Mr. Lu.

Are you a dumbhead?

We got no female employees?

No clerical staff?

You brought me a group of guards.

Do you think we are making a movie?

Only the security department

is on duty at this time.

There are really no other employees.

Make do with it.

Then ask them to take off the uniform.

They’re telling everyone I’m cheating.

What cheating?

I don’t know they went in uniforms.

I sent a message

in the company’s group chat,

and asked everyone to work overtime there.

I didn’t cheat.

I just made

a little publicity.

This is the task from you.

I don’t know which company they are from.

They just finished their work,

so it’s fully booked now.

But I think there are too many of them.

You would be tired out

making all their meals.

I’ll let them go.

Lu Jin,

white-collar workers are not easy.

They get off work at this time.

No.

It must be some

cruel boss.

Don’t worry,

I will make something good for them.

Don’t worry.

Shengnan.

Shengnan.

Start.

Eat.

Why are you so unhappy?

Cheer up.

Is it not good?

Make some chat.

Zhenghong’s slogan is…

Shut up.

Sit.

What happened?

Dishes are here. Come on.

What’s the atmosphere here?

Their company might have strict rules

for group dining.

Just serve the food.

Okay.

Go ahead.

Enjoy it.

Eat slowly.

It’s my problem today.

I shouldn’t let you work overtime.

I’m sorry

I bothered you

for personal affairs.

That is my girlfriend.

It won’t happen again.

I’ll make a toast to you.

Thank you for today.

Sit down.

Start eating.

Keep eating.

Pour beer.

Make a toast.

Chat.

Coming.

Help yourself.

Come.

Stir-fried seasonal vegetables.

Give it to me.

Is it good?

No?

Good!

You scared me good.

That shrimp…

Let’s

get back to business.

What business?

Date me the day after tomorrow.

I’ll think about it.

Oh right.

Don’t let your staff work overtime again.

Alright?

You did a great job today.

Let me know

if it’s not enough.

Well done.

You all get a raise.

Keep eating.

I’m telling you,

Lu Jin is a great kid.

Very easygoing

in front of Shengnan.

He peels potatoes and shrimps.

As long as Shengnan asks,

he obeys.

They are a lovely

and sweet couple.

If he keeps working there,

my little restaurant

will close soon.

Oh right.

Go back and

bring my wok and scoop.

Why?

You can’t cook in the hospital.

Just do as I say.

Just go.

Okay, fine.

I’ll go after peeling this apple.

Are you tired?

Yeah.
