= Episode 21 =

Why are you here?

Got hurt?

I told you not to go.

You asked for it.

So charming! Lu Jin is so charming!

You didn’t see

how he works.

He’s so cool.

And how he talks.

Don’t say sorry to me.

I hate this word.

If you say sorry,

I have to pretend to be very forgiving

and think for you.

I can’t do it.

Don’t insult me

with my tolerance to you.

He is so charming!

Be cool, Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu?

So?

So,

I plan to

change my look.

Are you gonna change your head?

No, no, no.

I want to be the woman behind him,

to love him,

tolerate him,

and understand him.

= Boardroom =

Let’s begin.

Okay.

Mingting Group has just reached

a cooperation agreement

with Wayne Hotel on the re-planning

and construction of Sinan Villa District.

Lu Mingting is flying to France next week

to attend the signing ceremony.

If this cooperation is really achieved,

Mingting will get back to life.

They can stabilize the creditors

with this project.

Not to mention Huimin Bank,

other banks will be happy

to give them financial support.

So,

the risk assessment department suggested

that we can retreat now

to reduce unnecessary risks.

What did you say?

Retreat?

Do you know

how much we spent

on this project?

We work countless days

and nights for this project

and now you want us to retreat?

Do you want us to give it up

so all of our efforts go in vain?

Yes.

Because previously

the PR department has announced that

Zhenghong is bound to take Mingting.

Giving it up now

will embarrass us all.

And once this news leaks out,

Zhenghong’s stock price

will drop inevitably.

How can we explain to the shareholders?

But if we continue to acquire,

we would spend

severalfold than expected.

Even if you are willing to do so,

you won’t be able to take it.

As far as I know,

there is another buyer

who offers higher than us.

But that’s not important.

What’s important is,

if this project between them and Wayne

gets carried out smoothly,

Mingting is very likely to come alive,

and then it will not need to be acquired.

I’ll take this with a grain of salt.

I do not agree to retreat.

Ms. Li,

better now than late.

Thanks, all of you.

Dismiss.

You stay.

Thanks.

Help me find out where Jenny is now.

The youngest daughter of Wayne’s owner?

Jenny.

Okay, I see.

She’s on vacation in Chiang Mai.

Perfect.

Book me a flight to Thailand now,

and send me her address

and contact info.

I will go with you.

No need.

I can go by myself.

You got more important things to do.

You need to

check the background of the other buyer.

Check it thoroughly.

Don’t worry.

Mingting won’t have its way with Wayne.

The acquisition goes on as planned.

I will take Mingting

at a proper price.

= Inpatient Department =

What’s wrong?

Wayne Group has

terminated the cooperation unilaterally.

How did that happen?

Wayne’s president’s wife

promised to help us.

Besides,

she has a say in Wayne.

I gambled on the wrong person.

The successor of Wayne is not her.

It’s Jenny, the president’s

youngest daughter.

I just learned about it.

This Jenny

antagonized her stepmother for everything.

Lu Jin

went to Thailand and talked with Jenny.

He cut off our plan.

Lu Jin, again.

What should we do now?

Lu Jin has burnt all our bridges.

I got nothing to do now.

We can only wait

to be acquired by Zhenghong.

I’m back.

Don’t worry.

Dad.

Do we need to call the doctor?

You are sick.

You should stay calm.

Don’t get angry for petty things.

It’s no good to you.

Petty thing?

Where did you go?

I went to Shengnan’s food stall

and brought you some

boneless chicken feet.

It melts in your mouth. Have a try.

Gu Shengnan?

The girl

Lu Jin announced to be

his fiancée at the party?

I saw Zheng Hong’s face turn green.

I guess

she doesn’t like this daughter-to-be.

Wellington steak.

Miss Gu.

Uncle Lu, why are you here?

Do you have time?

I want to talk to you.

Sorry, I’m late.

Jin,

I want to have a talk with you.

Let’s go to another restaurant.

All right.

We talk alone.

I asked you to come over…

Jin,

I beg you to let go of

Mingting Group.

Beg?

How nice it sounds.

I’ve been waiting for this word

for thirty years.

But unfortunately,

I can’t help you.

Business is business.

Don’t refuse me so fast.

You want Mingting

not for business reasons,

I know

you and your mom

still hate me.

Yes, we do.

Where were you

when my mother was helpless?

Where were you

when I grew up

to be a man from a boy?

From then on,

I swore on one day that

I would surpass you

and become stronger than you.

And today,

I did it.

I’m proud of my mother.

Whether you admit it or not,

I’m still your father.

Mingting is everything of my life

and this is my last wish.

You only taught me one thing in my life,

ruthlessness.

I didn’t plan to come back at all.

Lu Mingting,

you are my father. I can’t change that.

But the only thing I can change is that

you will be looking up at me

for the rest of your life.

You only taught me one thing in my life,

ruthlessness.

But the only thing I can change is that

you will be looking up at me

for the rest of your life.

= Meng Xinjie =

Hello?

Can you talk to him?

He’s been beating the sandbag for an hour.

Stop.

Lu Jin, stop it.

It’s okay.

Stop.

You are bleeding.

Go home.

Let’s go home, all right?

Sorry.

I’m sorry.

It’s my fault.

I’m sorry.

Okay. Let’s go home.

Let’s go.

Sorry.

Go home.

Go home.

I’m sorry. Let’s go.

Since I saw you smiling at me ♪

Your smile ♪

Baby I’m just falling to you ♪

You don’t need to say anything special ♪

Cause I’m pretty sure ♪

You’re the morning dew

that has fallen soft ♪

During the night on me ♪

So naturally ♪

Like we’re meant to be together ♪

Come on.

Hurry up!

Come.

Step aside.

Let me check.

Lu Jin?

Lu Jin?

= Tomb of Lu Mingting =

Zheng,

we are

on each other now.

Remember what I said,

and what your dad told you before he died.

Mingting…

Dad.

What are you saying?

I dedicated…

my life to Mingting.

Don’t

let it

be ruined.

You have to

protect it.

Mr. Lu.

Come in.

Mr. Lu Jr. from Mingting Group

is waiting for you in the meeting room.

Okay.

Sit.

Sit down.

I asked them to make a coffee for you.

My favorite flavor.

Have a taste.

Jin,

I want to beg you for one thing…

About Mingting Group.

Tell me.

Mingting is Father’s life work,

can you leave it alone?

Lu Zheng,

I understand you.

But you need to

learn

not to count on someone else.

You have to act on your own.

Of course, not now.

Now you need to figure out two things.

First,

Mingting Group is facing

irreparable problems.

It’s like a worm-eaten apple

and is decaying

every second.

The only way to deal with it

is to dig out the rotten part.

And you don’t have the ability to do so.

Second,

never be emotional

in business.

Business is business.

There is no emotion.

So I can’t do it.

You can’t stop me buying Mingting.

Brother,

let go of Mingting.

I beg you.

If you are here

on behalf of Mingting Group,

I don’t like your attitude.

If you want to stop me,

do it on your own.

Prove it to me.

Show me what you can do.

Go back.

I know what you want.

Go back.

Jin.

I hope you can remember

what you said today.

I will.

Business is business.

There is no emotion.

You can’t stop me buying Mingting.

= Background Analysis of Mingting Group =

How long will it take this time?

I’ll be back as soon as I finish work.

So wait for me at home,

okay?

Are you not afraid

that I run away with someone else

when you are away?

Dare you do it.

What if I dare?

I beg you.

Don’t make a joke about this, all right?

I have arranged

everything during my absence,

including the food stall.

Don’t worry about it.

Just have fun at work.

Oh, right.

I almost forgot the most important thing.

Buy anything you like.

Promise me one thing,

don’t work overtime.

Okay.

Off you go.

Okay.

Forgot anything?

Yeah.

Mr. Lu,

Wayne has completely given us up.

Without Wayne’s intervention,

no bank is willing to

provide us with financial support.

Mingting is facing a huge funding gap.

If there is

no capital injection,

it will be difficult

to maintain daily operations.

I think

it’s not necessarily a bad thing

to be acquired,

at least we can count on Zhenghong.

Anyway,

a good tree is a good shelter.

Director Kong,

you don’t know Zhenghong Group.

Companies acquired by them

will be split and sold

if not meet their assessment requirements.

At that time, you, me,

and everyone here,

are gonna lose our jobs.

= Entry point Zhang Yimin =

= Taiyue Property =

Zheng, what are you looking at?

Mom,

why are you here?

Why didn’t you call me?

What are these on the wall?

Show me.

Mom,

just leave it.

Why are you here

at this dirty and messy place?

Why not go shopping or do SPA

with your neighbors and friends?

Zheng,

are you hiding something from me?

You haven’t been home for days.

Are you busy with these stuffs?

It’s okay, Mom. Don’t worry about me.

I will go home today, OK?

Believe me, I will take care of it.

Lu Zheng.

Zhang Yimin.

It’s been a long time.

Yeah, long time.

You look much better

and more handsome than you were in school.

Please sit.

Lu Zheng,

I’m sorry about your father.

Chenxing and Mingting

have been working closely in recent years.

I happened to be

working on a project in South Africa

on the funeral day,

so I didn’t make it home.

I’m really sorry.

It’s okay.

My father got a heart issue for many years

and we had been prepared for it.

Yimin,

I asked you here

to do me a favor.

Tell me.

You know

Taiyue Property?

Of course.

Taiyue and our company are working

on a Southeast Asian Resort project.

This is the project.

You know,

Taiyue is controlled by me now.

I want to sign a guarantee agreement

with Chenxing in the name of Taiyue,

with Mingting Group as the guarantor.

Here is the agreement. Take a look.

I don’t understand

why are you doing this?

Mingting

is one of the shareholders

of Taiyue Property,

but it’s not necessary to undertake

such a harsh guarantee for Taiyue.

Once this agreement is signed,

any problem happens to Taiyue,

Mingting might have to be sold

to make it up.

Promise me you will help,

I’ll explain to you later.

All right?

Sure.

This agreement

does no harm to us.

And

it’s a double assurance.

I got no reason

to say no to this.

I’ll ask my secretary to send you

the formal agreement later.

Okay.

= Director Xiang =

I’ll leave you to your business then.

See you.

Lu Jin is heading to Vancouver.

He wants to acquire Mingting

through the Vancouver branch.

Zhenghong Group is reaching the company’s

small and medium shareholders

and trying to acquire

their shares secretly.

Many of the shareholders are worrying that

the group will not be able

to handle the debt problem,

and have reached an equity

transfer intention with Zhenghong.

The directors want to know

if you have any countermeasures.

No.

Let them take it.

It’s pretty good.

Keep it going.

In Mingting Group,

Lu Zheng owns 33% of the shares,

his mother Lin Lijun owns 8%,

and other shareholders own 59%.

Zhenghong has acquired

42% of the shares.

We will keep trying,

or reach an agreement

with other small and medium shareholders

to get their voting rights.

Next, we only need to convene

a general meeting of shareholders

to reorganize the board of directors,

and then we will take Mingting.

Do you want me to arrange

the general meeting on next Monday?

Not in a hurry.

What is Lu Zheng up to lately?

The project team said

that Mingting has given up struggling.

Your brother Lu Zheng

doesn’t seem to care about this.

Maybe he just

got nothing to do.

A major shareholder who owns

41 percent of the shares

got nothing to do?

I don’t think so.

What’s on your mind?

Set up a special team

to check these two

companies for me.

Taiyue Group and Chenxing Holdings.

Shall we continue?

Of course.

As planned.

What brought you here?

I feel bored

at home.

Wanna find someone to talk.

Are you busy?

Did I disturb you?

No.

I got no shift today.

You came so early.

Had breakfast?

It’s twelve o’clock now.

Twelve o’clock.

Would you like to have lunch together?

All right.

You go in.

I’ll go throw the trash.

I’ll go with you.

Okay.

Have more.

Help yourself.

Sorry.

I didn’t come to Uncle Lu’s funeral.

You know,

your relationship with Lu Jin,

and you two families…

Shengnan, don’t.

I understand.

Because of the competition

between Zhenghong and Mingting,

my brother and I are getting

more and more distant.

Actually, I have a wish in my heart.

I hope the grievance

in our last generation could end,

especially after my father passed away.

I hope I got a kinfolk by my side.

I hope Lu Jin…

I hope Lu Jin

can admit me as his brother.

I know.

Don’t worry.

Leave it to me.

I will help you realize it.

Lu Jin is a person

who is cautious in everything.

There is no reason not trusting

his own brother, right?

Shengnan,

thanks for your help.

I really appreciate it.

But I don’t want

my brother to know this.

I haven’t achieved anything yet.

I want to make some achievements.

I guess…

I guess at that time,

my brother would think much of me.

Okay.

Hurry up and eat.

What’s wrong?

Nothing.

Good.

Eat some vegetables.

Do you feel hot?

What’s wrong?

What’s wrong with you?

Lu Zheng.

= Inpatient Building =

Take a good rest.

Stay here for one night for observation,

and you can be discharged tomorrow.

Remember, never contact allergens again.

Thanks.

Seriously, what is your problem?

You’re allergic to crabs. Why ate them?

You made it for me.

Are you out of your mind?

It’s okay.

I’m not absolutely allergic to crabs.

Sometimes I am,

but sometimes I’m fine.

I’ve been in bad luck lately.

My dad is gone.

All my mom does is nagging and weeping.

I finally

had a chance to eat crabs

but got allergic.

It’s okay. Everything will get better.

Don’t worry.

You are my little brother now.

I got your back.

I think I’m older than you.

In seniority,

I am your sister-in-law.

I am older than you.

Yeah, right.

All right. Have some rest.

I’ll get you some water.
