=Episode 8=

- Hello, who are you looking for?

- Hello.

Sorry about that.

This is the company's new project,

so I thought I'd try one.

I forgot to take it off.

I'm Cen Jin.

I'm here to

Cen Jin?

I know you.

You're the new creative director!

I'm Lu Tong, a designer.

I've seen your work.

It's amazing.

Thank you.

I'll show you around,

and then we'll go find HR.

Sure.

Let's go.

This whole area back here

is the staff workspace.

And

- Bye-bye.

- Bye-bye.

They just pulled an all-nighter.

Our work hours are flexible.

Once you finish your work,

you can leave anytime.

Okay.

This way.

Here's the treadmill.

This is coffee. The relaxation area.

If you

get stuck on ideas,

you can come here

to unwind and look for inspiration.

Nice.

Cen Jin?

You're here.

I just arrived.

I haven't done my onboarding yet.

Great timing.

Do the paperwork later.

Let's have a creative meeting first.

Guys, stop playing.

We have a meeting now.

Lu Tong, you too.

Let's go.

Okay.

Cen Jin,

sit here.

Sure.

Good.

Everyone's here.

We'll start.

Let me introduce you.

This is Cen Jin,

our new creative director.

Hello, everyone.

Everyone here

will be working with you.

Lu Tong, introduce them to her

after the meeting.

Alright, today's meeting

is mainly

to share some good news

with you guys.

This time,

we've secured

the Ren Food Group's

festive advertising project.

I know you're all excited.

The brand is well-known,

the exposure is big,

and the earnings are great.

It wasn't easy

to secure this deal.

But with a brand client like this,

their expectations are extremely high.

We need to aim for perfection.

Luckily, Cen Jin was in charge

of their Mid-Autumn

new product advertisement last year.

She knows the brand well

and has more experience than we do.

So I'm handing

the project over to you, okay?

No problem.

Jin, this is your desk.

Thank you.

(Cen Jin, Creative Director)

Ms. Cen.

I've sent all the progress reports

and files

for the Ren Group project

to your email.

Sorry, you are?

Li Fei.

Creative Team A leader.

I was the one leading

the Ren Group project before.

If you want to know anything,

you can ask me.

Okay.

Right, Ted wasn't happy

with the slogans

we gave him earlier.

I heard

you're an expert in writing copy.

Could you help revise them?

I'll adjust them based

on the overall picture.

I look forward to it.

Ignore him.

He's just upset.

Before you came,

he thought he'd get

the director position.

He's probably

feeling a little down now.

But he's not a bad buy.

He looks up to the strong.

Once he knows how good you are,

he won't act like this.

It's fine.

He's the straightforward kind.

It's good.

Well, take your time with work.

Lin Honglang.

What's up?

Look at this.

Amazing.

Li Wu.

I saw this when I

went to pick up parcels

at the school gate.

So I brought it back to you.

Thanks.

No big deal.

Let's chat now.)

(Keep tomorrow free.)

(I'm booking a doctor's appointment.)

(Keep tomorrow free.

I'm booking a doctor's appointment.)

(If you don't reply,

I'll take that as a yes.)

Shen.

Shen.

You set up this gathering,

picked the place,

and now you're the first to run off?

That's not cool.

I've got a meeting tomorrow.

You guys enjoy.

We'll drink another day again.

You said that yourself.

Drink again next time.

Alright. Take care.

(Chang Bar)

I'm also a friend of Li Wu.

I'm Chun Chang.

I run a bar nearby,

called Chang.

Come by sometime.

Would you like some flowers?

Madam,

how much

for all these?

These are the leftovers.

Give me fifty,

and you can take them all.

I'll scan your code.

Okay.

Take cash, Madam.

I'll pay for him.

Miss, you're not busy today?

No.

This QR code

is linked to her son's WeChat.

If you scan this,

the money won't go to her.

Miss, who are these flowers for?

For him. He's the one buying them.

Alright.

Thank you.

Sure.

See you, Madam.

See you.

So, can I have

your WeChat now?

I mean, you have to

transfer money to me.

You know,

I never use payment codes

with strangers.

Shen.

Shen.

- Yiyang.

- Yiyang.

You're still here?

Perfect timing. We're thinking of

going somewhere else for a second round.

Since you haven't left yet,

come with us.

Yeah, Yiyang. What a coincidence.

Why don't you join us

for another drink?

I'll pass. You guys go ahead.

Come on. Join us.

You asked us to meet here,

and now we've run into you,

you're running to sneak off?

Yeah. It's still early.

Let's go, Yiyang.

Also, I've some work stuff to ask you.

We just met a bit ago,

and now you're off to drink

with someone else?

Aren't you going to introduce me?

These are my colleagues.

No wonder you were trying to escape.

That's not cool.

Hello.

I'm Shen's colleague.

Just call me Zhang Chi.

Hello.

I'm Chun Chang.

Nice to meet you.

You've never mentioned me at work?

Well, we won't keep you then.

We'll get going, Yiyang.

Let's hang out together sometime. Bye.

Sure.

Thanks.

Just that?

I acted as your girlfriend

for a few minutes.

Getting your WeChat

isn't too much to ask, right?

(Shen Yiyang)

Shen Yiyang?

Is this your real name?

Yes.

This isn't a work account?

No.

Why are you around here?

Is it because I told you

I opened a bar here last time,

and you came here to find me?

Come in for a drink.

I can't.

I've got a meeting tomorrow morning.

You're already here.

The bar is right here.

Let me treat you to a drink.

I really can't.

I'm going home to rest.

You sleep so early.

My ride's here.

I'm off.

I sent you a friend request.

Accept it.

You triggered my competitive spirit.

(Gin invites you for a voice call)

Hello?

Hello?

Are you free this morning?

That doctor can only squeeze us in

during the morning.

So sudden?

His appointments are really hard to get.

It took a lot for me to get this slot.

If we go a bit earlier,

we'll have more time to ask questions.

Two of us?

Yeah.

Didn't I say I'd take you?

Well,

you're not going to work today?

I took leave.

My colleague will follow up

on the project.

Unless today doesn't work for you,

we can change the day.

No.

It's fine.

Okay.

But

I lent my car to Cheng Rui.

I'll pick you up at the hotel.

I should be there around nine.

Okay.

(I'm downstairs.)

(Department of Neurology)

Sorry. A patient came in just now.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

It's fine.

This is Dr. Lu.

Li Wu.

Hello.

Hello, Dr. Lu.

So, about your condition,

Cen Jin

had told me a bit.

But we still need

to run some tests

before deciding on a treatment plan.

How long have you had

these migraines?

What treatment have you tried?

On and off,

around four to five years.

I got some meds

from another doctor before.

But they are mostly painkillers.

They only relieve the pain

when it really hurts.

I see.

Later,

send me photos

of the medications you've taken.

We'll run a few tests first.

And you'll need to book an MRI as well.

Okay.

Thank you, Dr. Lu.

You're welcome.

We're all friends.

I'm not too busy right now.

I'll take you to make the appointment.

After the scan,

you'll get the result on the same day.

Let's go.

The coat you lent me last time.

I dry-cleaned it

and brought it back.

Thank you.

Who's this guy?

Cen Jin's boyfriend?

We'll go by ourselves.

No need to trouble you.

Right. Don't let us keep you.

We'll go by ourselves.

Sure.

See you next time, Mr. Lu.

See you.

We'll get going.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Li Wu.

You left this in the car.

Thank you.

Don't forget you have checkups

in a few days.

Okay. I'm heading off.

Well

Are you busy this Saturday?

I'm going back to my parents' place.

Why?

Nothing.

I'm off.

Bye-bye.

(Going back to her parents' place

this Saturday?)

Mom, Dad, I'm back.

What do we have?

Sister, you're back.

Why are you here?

I came to visit Mr. Cen and Mrs. Cen.

Visit

Since we've made peace,

I figured I could come, right?

Why are you standing here?

Go wash your hands and get ready for lunch.

Okay.

Mr. Cen, Mrs. Cen.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Wu, sit here.

Sit.

The four of us

haven't sat down

for a meal like this

in a very long time.

Let's treat it

as a reunion lunch

to welcome Wu back.

If there's anything

you want to eat or drink,

just tell me.

I'll make sure you get it.

Sure.

Thank you, Mrs. Cen.

I've been abroad

these past few years,

so I haven't had the chance

to see you both.

But now that I'm back, I'm staying.

I'll come visit often.

Good. Dig up.

Sure. Come on, eat.

Here.

Wu,

how's the startup going?

It goes pretty well.

Now, I'm working with

a few friends who share the same goals.

And my mentor from abroad

is helping as our tech consultant.

Everything's been good.

I don't know much

about the environmental AI field,

but your direction

sounds great.

Well, you can't just

bury yourself in work.

Look at you.

You're so skinny.

You need to take care of yourself.

Here. Eat some meat.

Right.

Eat some meat.

Thank you, Mrs. Cen.

Wu,

since you've decided

to move back for good,

have you found a place

to live?

Not yet.

I'm staying at a hotel.

I've contacted the agents,

but none of the places were ideal.

Hotel?

That won't do.

Too expensive.

You should find a proper place.

Also, you need to pick an area

to search for a place.

It'll be easier.

I thought about it.

I prefer to stay

in Minwen District.

It's closer to my office.

Minwen?

Jin knows that area.

Let her recommend something.

Don't let those agents scam you.

Wouldn't that

trouble her

too much?

But I'm actually looking at

apartments today.

Do you have time?

Of course.

She has time.

It's the weekend.

She has time.

Yeah.

Thank you, Sister.

You should hurry

and find one.

The earlier, the better.

Take a look at this place.

The furniture

is nice,

the decor is classy,

and the view is good.

This apartment is excellent.

What do you think?

It's nice.

Look at this sofa.

It's dim at this hour.

It'll only get worse

at other times, right?

Look at this one.

The view.

Faces south.

Top floor.

The lighting is great.

You never need to turn on the lights.

Look. Isn't it bright?

And the big balcony.

Sorry.

What's wrong?

There's a leak here.

Look.

I'm sure

you'll be satisfied.

The lighting

has absolutely no problem.

Southwest corner unit.

The decor style

is great,

all the furniture is new,

and there's no leak.

If you find one leak,

I'll drink it.

Okay?

Take your time and look around.

How's this one?

Look.

Not bad.

It's fine, right?

I think it's okay too.

(Home Renovation Notice)

Miss.

Mister.

If even this one

doesn't work,

I really don't have

any other listings.

If that's the case,

maybe I should switch

to another district.

I don't mind a longer commute.

You really

don't have anything else?

Let me ask.

Got it.

My colleague says

there's a new unit

that has just opened up.

It's not in the system yet.

It's a very popular neighborhood.

Do you want to

go take a look?

Shall we?

The apartment

has an elegant decor,

the layout is good,

high ceilings,

and the design details are done well.

The neighborhood

we saw earlier

is beautiful

and serene.

I don't think this is a good place.

Why not?

Maybe I should just stay in the hotel.

No, don't.

I've been running around

these past few days.

Give it another thought.

If you stay in a hotel, you can't cook.

Eating too much takeout

is bad for your health.

Besides,

you won't feel settled

staying in a hotel all the time.

It's like drifting around.

Watching people

come and go every day,

you can't sleep well either.

You need a place

to settle down

so you can eat well and sleep well.

I mean it!

Don't stay in a hotel.

If you think this place works for you,

just sign the paper.

I'll head back first.

Mister,

did I do a good job?

I'll pay you extra.

Alright. Thanks.

This is way too fast.

He just rented the place,

and now he's already moving in.

You're glued to the door.

Did you come over here

just to watch him move in?

Stop staring.

It'll be awkward if he sees you.

Thank you.

Why do you think

he's doing all this?

You two just made peace,

and now he moves right across from you.

You fell for his trap.

He's changed.

He knows how to play the victim now.

So what are you going to do?

I just want to

help him get his health back.

As for the rest,

I don't have any thoughts.

This guy is really something.

Who?

The guy I told you about before.

Li Wu's friend.

I added him on WeChat,

and he ignored my request.

That's rare.

I've never seen you care so much.

It's Li Wu.

You're here.

Come on in.

Well

My car's restricted today,

and there's nothing at home.

I need to go buy some things.

I was wondering

if I could borrow your car.

One sec. I'll grab the key.

What key?

Go with him.

Help him pick things out.

I'm doing laundry.

I'll wash it for you.

He just got back.

He doesn't know this area.

You should help him more.

Is that okay for you now?

Of course.

Alright, I will change my shoes.

This one seems pretty good.

Do you want to try it?

It's fine.

Bedding is important.

Take your time.

What mattress was I sleeping on

back at your place?

I don't remember.

Honestly, that's still

the bed I slept best in

all these years.

Hello.

This is our latest model.

The core uses

individually pocketed springs.

If you get up at night,

you won't disturb your partner.

You can both lie down

in your usual sleeping positions

to try it out.

I'm buying it.

Sorry.

Sir, do you have

any specific requirements?

Please follow me.

It's pretty comfy.

Something's wrong with him.

(Roman Holiday)

Do you remember

we watched this before?

Yeah.

I was teaching you English back then.

Yeah.

It's been a long time.

Lately, I keep thinking about the past.

Yeah.

It's been a while.

A lot of things have changed.

Some things haven't.

Actually

You've always been

the most important person to me.

That hasn't changed at all.

Sister,

I get it now.

I wouldn't be who I am today

without you.

When I first went abroad,

I couldn't understand

why we had to part.

But after seeing more of the world,

I slowly understood

the world you wanted me to see.

Sorry.

When I said

I hated you,

it was because I was scared.

I didn't mean it.

You told me to let go

because it was good for me.

One can't

hold on to the past forever.

I should let it go too

and live my life.

Thank you.
