01x20 - Episode 20

[bunniefuu]

It's raining.

Really?

Don't get caught in the rain.

Otherwise, I'll be worried.

[Episode 20]
[Mayday]

Appearance is the face of the place,

but what drives business
is the selling point.

So I'm planning
to put most of the renovation budget into

the exterior renovation
and the sunset-view restaurant.

But I'm on a tight budget, so for the exterior,
I can only afford a fresh coat of paint.

I'm thinking of setting up

the sunset-view restaurant
on the second-floor lobby and terrace.

So, the outdoor viewing spots and window
seats will become photo-worthy spots.

At that point, the number of seats
will be crucial.

I want it to be exclusive enough
to make people queue for it,

but not overcrowded
to the point they're put off.

As for the food,

besides the complimentary breakfast,

I plan to serve brunch from 11 a.m.,
afternoon tea later,

and switch to a bar in the evening.
Nothing too complicated.

However, I have three requirements.

It has to look good, taste decent,
and look really good.

Isn't "taste decent" a bit vague?

I can't find a top-tier chef.
"Look good" is my minimum standard.

I'll find you a chef. Go on.

For the banquet hall,
I'm going to rent it out

for immersive script entertainment.

[Sunset-View Restaurant: Scope; Highlights]
"Hotel of Horror," something like that.

Then I'll save on renovation costs
and collect venue fees.

I can even lower the fee a bit,

but they have to design it
as a two-day-one-night event.

That way they can
charge a higher rate per guest,

and I get to sell rooms too.

Win-win.

Interesting.

You can't rely on mere scripted
entertainment to sell rooms, can you?

Of course not.

I don't have the budget
for room refurbishment,

but the hotel has already had
soundproofing and blackout curtains.

The existing setup is good enough.

So I'm going to upgrade
the sleep experience.

New bedding.

Plus, most of our guests are crew members
who've been working all day.

I'm adding foot baths
and herbal soak packs.

It's not luxury,
but guests will sleep like babies.

Alright, that sounds
a lot more interesting.

But why did you bring me to Hengshi Air?

To pitch a partnership.

I have all these rooms to sell.

Maybe he'll like my ideas enough
to throw some money in.

Come on,

Let's go.

Give Fu Ming Yu a little shock.

A shock? I thought you
were doing Bo'ao Air?

What do you need him for?

Experience tells me
not to put all my eggs in one basket.

Grab my bag.

Come on, Fu Ming Yu is way too shrewd
and way too cheap.

He...

Hurry up.

There's no way he's investing in you!

I'm in.

You're the best, my brother-in-law!

As for the rooms, I'll send you the contact
information of the person in charge later.

And the investment will be in my name.

It's not a huge amount,
but it should be more than enough for you.

Oh my gosh.

You've really surprised me today, brother.

- You've got a real investor's eye.
- Hold on.

You two are having a great time
with this "in-law" thing.

Did you even ask Ruan
if she's okay with it?

Your proposal surprised me too.
I always thought you only did photography.

I didn't realize you had such a solid grasp
of hotel management.

See? That's why you're the best.

You are making me feel like
I don't even know you anymore.

This is unbearable. I can't listen to this!

- You're still here?
- You're still here?

If you're uncomfortable,
the exit's that way.

Help yourself.

Trying to shake me off, Fu Ming Yu?

That's not happening.

Come on. Stop with the vague promises.

Give me the number. How much?

Not much.

Two million.

Two million?

- Not enough?
- No, that's plenty.

My startup budget wasn't even two million.

- Five.
- Why are you making a scene over five?

- Five million!
- Stop yelling.

No way.

You can't out-invest me by that much.

Fine, I'll match the two million. Can I?

We'll see.

Anyway, great working
with you today, brother.

Once the contract's signed,
we'll launch the project.

Don't worry. No problem.

Then we're leaving. Won't keep you.

Brother, you're the best!

Brother, you're amazing.
Brother, we've got your back!

- I can back you, too!
- Time to leave.

Fu Ming Yu, don't you...
Don't go back to him. I can fund you too!

- Go!
- Why do you beat me?

- Bye!
- I can fund you too!

That "brother-in-law" sounds pretty good.

What were you thinking, Zheng You An?

You don't really think Fu Ming Yu invested
because of your proposal, do you?

He only did it because you kept calling him
"brother-in-law," and he lost his mind.

That's quite insulting.

But I don't care,
as long as I've got the money.

That's not what I mean.

Aren't we closer than you and him?

I call him "brother-in-law"
because we're somehow relatives.

But what about us? What are we?

- That goes without saying.
- Friends?

Partners at best.
But I'm not sure I want to keep it.

We are...

- Didn't you say before...
- Regretting it now?

Aren't you the one who decided it
wouldn't work out before we even started?

I'm saying I'm better than Fu Ming Yu,
aren't I?

We work together so well.
You don't need to go looking elsewhere.

You know what?

When I first found out Fu Ming Yu liked
Ruan, I thought they had the worst odds.

The wealth gap, the social gap,
everything was stacked against them.

And yet they went for it anyway
without hesitation.

And now they look perfect together.

- Why are we talking about them?
- Fine, let's talk about you and me.

My family hasn't been doing great
the last few years,

but we're still a good match
in terms of family and wealth.

But you?

We haven't even taken the next step,
and you've already decided we're doomed.

Every relationship has ups and downs.

Other people face problems
and figure out how to solve them.

As for you, you got rid of me.

We haven't even faced a real problem.

Problems appear only in your imagination.

And then you feel sorry for yourself.

You've never believed in me.

Not in this hotel, not in us.

Let's go. Why are you standing there?

It's time to make amends.
Better late than never.

Do you understand?

Got it.

- Let me carry your bag.
- Today's outfit.

- Fine. Let me hold the door for you.
- No need. It's automatic.

Then let me treat you to a meal.

- Be quiet.
- Barbecue? Steak?

Does he usually cook at you two's place?

I cook sometimes.
Instant noodles and stuff.

You know my cooking.

And what do you mean by "you two's place"?
This is my place.

Got it. Your place.

You work for him during the day,
and he cooks for you at night.

You two have
a pretty complicated working relationship.

Where is Xiao Zhen?

She just called.
She's out of the airport and on her way.

How's she been doing?

Fine, I guess.

She's been around
studying and assessments every day.

It's been over two years now.

She should have moved on by now.

I've been putting off this get-together
because I didn't want her to overthink things.

How should I put it?

She looks fine.

But I recently found out

- she's been chatting with an AI on her phone.
- AI?

You could say she's found an AI boyfriend
as a replacement for Lu Ming.

So now she's in a
purely online relationship.

I'll get the door.

Ruan...

Mr. Fu?

Sorry, my flight was delayed.

No worries. Come in. They're both inside.

Look at her.

Why are you acting so shady?

It's terrifying.

The door is opened
and there's Mr. Fu in an apron.

Felt like I was back at work.

Just think of him as the house-husband.

I can't do that.

You two are just sitting here
eating sunflower seeds and not helping?

We'd only get in the way. Why bother?

What are you so nervous about?

He's meeting his girlfriend's friends.

He's the one who should be nervous.

- True.
- Good point.

Have some seeds.

It's him!

It's him. I like him so much.

Really?

They look alike.

Come on, eat up.

The meat's going to get tough.

Eat. What's wrong with you two?

Thank you, Mr. Fu.

Do you want to try something else?

No, thanks.

I like scallions.

Seriously, what are you doing?

Nothing. We're eating.

Is it because I'm here?
So you're feeling awkward?

Of course not. We're having a great time.

I'm going to dig in and eat my fill.

You don't have to try so hard.

Eat as usual.

He's not Mr. Fu right now.

He's Fu Ming Yu, my boyfriend.

You two should be finding fault with him.

What are you saying?

Mr. Fu is perfect.
What flaws could he possibly have?

It's after work hours.
You don't have to say stuff like that.

And you don't have to call me Mr. Fu
after hours either.

Okay, Mr. Fu...

Then what should I call you?

Nothing really feels right.

What would be appropriate?

I've got a good idea.

How about "Brother-in-law"?

Doesn't sound good?

Not appropriate?

Too hard to say?

Brother-in-law.

"Brother-in-law."

Don't be like that! You're so annoying.

How can you even say that?

- "Brother-in-law"...
- Money is hard to earn, though.

Xiao Zhen is embarrassed
because she's his employee.

But what's your excuse, Xuan?

How come you forgot
how to eat and talk at dinner?

You have no idea.

I always thought your boyfriend
was the "cold and restrained" type.

But today I realized he has a face
that just shuts people up.

I couldn't even sit at the same table
with him, let alone have a conversation.

Wait, shouldn't we feel bad about this?

Mr. Fu worked so hard to make us dinner,
and we just kicked him out.

What else could I do?

With him here, you
couldn't enjoy the dinner.

I had to pick one thing to fix.

Anyway, I'll have to
make it up to him tonight.

Make it up to him?

He's the "brother-in-law," after all.

Is he easy to make up with?

Not really.

Don't be fooled by his "cold and
restrained" face in front of others.

When we're alone, he's totally clingy.

Clingy?

Sounds like my gift might come in handy.

You brought a gift?

You didn't tell me.

Just some social grease.

What is it?

Wait here.

This...

Now the social grease has escalated into
an unexpected romance.

So we should leave early
and not get in the way.

- Try it on.
- Come on, try it on.

- Try it on.
- See if it fits.

You're something else.

Don't be too impressed.

You didn't even tell me.

You're too young to understand.

Anyway, I did a good deed today.

Well...

Doesn't seem right.

That's the most superficial sexy
I've ever seen.

Are you kidding me? You're disrespecting
sexiness and mocking modesty at the same time.

What even is this?

Whatever.

At least I made an effort.

Are you shy because we're here?

Shy? Please.

Watch. This is more than enough
to win him over.

- More than enough?
- More than enough?

Are you angry, brother-in-law?

Brother-in-law?

I'd like to interview you.

How did you even come
up with that nickname?

Ruan Si Xian.

Do you think this is funny?

It's not funny.

But it's very cute.

Be good, don't be mad.

Don't be mad.

Ruan Si Xian. I'm
seriously upset right now.

Don't give me that smile.

Do you know how serious this is?

I know.

I shouldn't have made you eat by yourself.

Exactly.

I was showing friendliness.

All I said was,
"Maybe I'll go upstairs to eat,"

and you should've eased the tension,
not just pushed me out the door.

I'm sorry.

That's better.

Be good. Don't be mad, okay?

I was wrong.

What are you doing?

Come on, don't be mad.

I knew it.

We're just not meant for.

Ruan Si Xian, listen to yourself.

I prepared so many things for today.

- How are we not meant for it?
- We're meant for marriage.

Is that so?

Say it again.

Say it again.

He kicked me out?

So impossible, this "brother-in-law"!

Morning, Captain Yue.

Today's outbound leg
should be fine weather-wise.

But on the return leg,

we might run into some precipitation
around Jiang City,

so make sure we have extra fuel.

If we hit weather,
we may need to circle for a while.

Got it?

Copy that.

If nothing else, we board in five minutes.

Come on, keep up. Hurry up and push.
I've got stuff to do later.

Be careful. Watch it.

- Put it in the corner over there. Thanks.
- Got it.

Come on, keep up!

Keep up!

[Jiang City Forecast: Light Rain]

Go!

Come on, just one more round.

Do you see the sky right now?
It's about to rain.

If it rains,
this project gets delayed another day.

That's money flying out
the window every day.

And you're playing games?
Can you be serious for once?

My goodness. It's just a small job.
Why do you have to do all this yourself?

If these guys aren't
enough, hire a few more.

That would cost more!

I'm stretching every yuan as it is.

I don't have that much budget.

What's a few more workers going to cost?

I've already spent so much
before this hotel even opens.

There's a lot more spending ahead.

I offered to invest more. You said no.

Wait...

Go ahead and play.

I'm done.

Come on.

Let's get to work.

Branches need to be trimmed.

And hurry, get all this stuff inside
before it rains.

Tong Le!

- What are you doing out here?
- Stop it. It's pouring.

- Come on, get inside.
- Almost done!

- That's enough. Get in here.
- I'm coming!

You're soaked through.

Go.

Here, dry off. You'll catch a cold.

I used to have to work around the weather.

Now I own a pub, and I still have to
work around the weather.

But I think it's quite nice.

When it rains,
this place feels like an empty island.

Just you and me.

And we've got drinks and music.

Perfect.

If I'm not making money,
how am I supposed to pay you?

I can work for free.

Then what do you want?

Forget it.

Whatever it is, either labor
laws won't allow it or I won't.

Wang, is the soup ready?

Ms. Dong, let me get it for you.

It's fine. I'll take it over.

Ms. Dong, are you alright?

- I'm fine.
- Did you get scalded?

Just a bit.

I'll get you the ointment.

Captain Yue!

[Captain Yue Yang suddenly collapsed.]
Peng Fei!

- Secure the captain. Now.
- What?

Don't freeze. Secure him.

Captain, I made the announcement.

There's no medical personnel on board.

Can we land in this pouring rain?

Get in here. Help move Captain Yue out
and get him settled.

You handle the passengers.

- Leave the rest to me.
- Got it.

Careful.

Let me.

Come on.

Peng Fei, take the left seat.

Don't panic. Do what you did in training.

Help me run the checklist.

Got it.

Sorry for the disturbance.

- Sorry.
- We have a passenger who's feeling unwell.

Please remain calm.

Yue Yang.

Can you hear me? Yue Yang!

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!

Jiang City Approach, Hengshi Air 5123.
Captain incapacitated.

Request weather, approach conditions,
and radar vectors.

Request medical assistance on arrival.

Hengshi Air 5123. Mayday received.

Runway 22 in use.

Jiang City current weather:
wind 120 degrees at 15 meters per second.

Gusts 18 meters per second.

Wind varying between 030 and 140 degrees.

Temperature 19. QNH 1002.

Moderate rain showers, wet runway.

Runway condition code five-five-five.

I have holding and approaching traffic
in the area.

Confirm your intentions.

Standby, Hengshi Air 5123.

This weather is exactly like
what I trained for in the simulator.

And the examiner was Captain Yue too.

[Jiang City]

Can you check
if there's any flight information?

- The rain's insane.
- I've been checking. Nothing.

Maybe we shouldn't go today.

The weather is terrifying.

Thunder, rain.

People on those planes must be terrified.

[Captain Incapacitation]
[Emergency Landing in Jiang City]

[Bai Yang]

Mr. Fu? Flight 5123 has
declared an emergency.

We've activated the
emergency response plan.

[Captain Incapacitated]
[Emergency Landing in Jiang City]

[Captain: Yue Yang]
[First Officers: Ruan Si Xian, Shan Peng Fei]

Ruan, I've run the numbers.

Crosswind 29 knots, tailwind 7 knots.

Landing distance, 2168 meters.

But...

- But what?
- We'll go on autopilot without the captain.

But the manual says the crosswind
limit for autoland is 15 knots.

- It's exceeded.
- Forget the autopilot.

The crosswind limit
for hand-fly is 32 knots.

We're at 29.

Within limits.

Captain Yue needs medical attention
as soon as possible.

We've already declared Mayday.

- Let's get this plane down.
- Copy that.

Hengshi Air 5123,
we've decided to continue the approach.

Hengshi Air 5123, contact
approach on 125.55.

Contact approach on


Mr. Fu, Captain Yue Yang is not doing well.

Tower reports strong gusts
and moderate rain showers.

They're landing on Runway 22,
but the crosswind is quite strong.

[Still mad?]

What does "Mayday" mean?
Does it have something to do with May?

Is it related to Mayday the band?

Mayday?

Where did you see that?

On the news.

[Jiang City Hit by Rare Heavy Rainstorm]
What's wrong?

Mom.

How's the burn?

Let's go to the hospital
before it gets infected.

You An, be quiet.

Hengshi Air Flight 5123 is on approach.
We will continue to follow this story

[JCTV Reports: Jiang City Weather]
and bring you updates.

My phone. Where's my phone?

- Mom, don't panic.
- Where is my phone?

Where is my phone?

I just had it in my hand. Where is it?

Thank you.

Sorry, the phone you have dialed
is powered off.

All vehicles, follow my lead.

Stand by for rescue operations
as soon as the aircraft comes to a stop.

Repeat! All vehicles, follow my lead.

Mr. Fu, the Ground
Handling Unit is on the way.

They're here to get a
handle on the situation.

Are you going to meet them?

Leave it to Mr. Hu. I'm staying right here.

Understood.

Wait for me in the car.

Xiao Zhen.

Don't worry.

Ruan is the most capable pilot I know.

Careful.

Careful.

I can't see anything from here.

Yan An.

I can't see anything from here.

How are we supposed to know
if her plane has landed?

Auntie Dong, don't
worry. Let me go find out.

Then I'll go with you.

No, your wound might
get infected. Let him go.

Yes, Auntie Dong, you won't be able to
get to the tarmac anyway.

I'll go ask right now.
I'll call you the moment I have news.

- Alright.
- I'll be back.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

Hengshi Air 5123, cleared ILS approach,

Rain seems lighter on final.

Gear down.

Crosswind is within limits for now, but if it

Turn on the wipers.

The rain is growing heavier!

Autopilot disengaged.

Mr. Fu, the wind's shifting.

Wind's shifting a lot.

Ruan, the crab angle is getting steep.

Watch the crosswind.

The more urgent it is,
the calmer we must be.

While we race against time for the patient,

we are also responsible for the safety
of the other 181 passengers on board.

Stay here, Xiao Zhen.

Check your phone.
See if Ruan has sent you anything.

Ruan, the wind is turbulent.

Direction!

Nose is straightened.

Hengshi Air 5123, exit at B4.

Speed too high. Unable to exit,
Hengshi Air 5123.

What's happening now?

Mr. Yan, don't worry.

The plane is back on the centerline.

But the wind shifted suddenly,
and the speed hasn't dropped.

Is Ruan Si Xian on that plane?

Tailwind. Ruan, tailwind increasing.

[Hengshi Air 5123
encounters increasing tailwind]

The plane isn't slowing down.

At this rate, we'll run off the runway!

Hengshi Air 5123, exit at B3.

Don't worry.

Believe in her.

I know.

Hengshi Air 5123, exit at B2.

70 knots.

Crosswind is decreasing.

Directional control is satisfactory.

We can use reverse thrust now.

[Ruan Si Xian engages reverse thrust
for the second time]

It's at B2.

Why isn't it turning off the runway?

It should've turned at B4,
but it didn't slow down in time.

- How is it now?
- Still hasn't slowed down.

Lu Ming.

If you're out there, if you can hear me...

Please make the plane stop.
Please make it stop.

Ruan has to make it.

Ruan Si Xian, stop!

Hengshi Air 5123, exit at B1.

Stop.

Stop!

- Brakes set.
- Pressure in the green.

That scared me to death.

Oh, my gosh.

My legs are like jelly.

They're safe.

They're safe!

That's great!

That's great!

They're safe.

Did it stop?

Xiao Zhen, it landed.

It landed. Ruan is down.

Hello, You An?

The plane has stopped.

- How is it?
- They're safe!

What happened?

Say that again.

The plane has stopped.

Rest easy.

It stopped.

- The plane has stopped.
- It stopped.

It stopped.

Thank goodness it stopped.

- It's okay.
- It stopped.

Thank goodness.

That's great.

- Hello?
- Xuan.

It's done. She landed.

Ruan landed.

Good.

I knew Ruan was the best.

Hengshi Air 5123, are you able to
exit at your current position?

Exiting at B1, Hengshi Air 5123.

All vehicles, move out!

Go!

Go! Get in!

Move! Get in the car! Hurry!

Don't worry.

Everything's in place on the ground.

Good.

Watch your step, everyone.

It's slippery.

Take care.

- We're safe now.

Watch your step.

Easy.

Go. Hurry.

Come over here.

Go.

Don't move.

Let me hold you a little longer.

Were you all worried?

But you did it.

And you did a great job.

You know what?

For a moment back there,

I was really scared.

What are you scared of?

Boss, you should give me a raise.

I'm already all yours.

Is a raise necessary?

Business is business.

So, are you giving me a raise or not?

Close your eyes.
