Episode 13
Zitong, you're here.
I'll give you ten minutes.
What do you want to say? Say it now.
Do you want any drinks?
Nine more minutes.
Is this how
we're going to talk to each other in the future?
Why?
Are you upset?
If you feel upset,
you shouldn't have done what you did three years ago.
To be honest,
I didn't plan to meet you today.
But I heard you have been bothering everyone for the past few days.
You asked my brother and my sister-in-law out.
Oh, yes.
I guess you've already found out about my brother's marriage.
Yes, I have.
I asked them out
for a catch-up.
A catch-up?
It seems like you disregarded what I said.
Fine.
I'll remind you
once again.
Don't even think about plotting anything.
If you dare break up their marriage,
I won't show you any mercy.
Back then, we were good friends.
How did it turn out like this?
That was in the past.
How did it turn out like this?
Don't you know the answer yourself?
Zitong,
do you still remember
our first meeting?
During our first meeting,
you made fun of my unfashionable outfit.
Because of that,
I cried in secret after I got home.
I thought you looked down on me.
But what I didn't expect was that
on my birthday
you bought me a very expensive dress.
Do you know
that it was my first ever time
wearing such an expensive dress?
That was why I cherished it a lot.
I only wore it
when I went on dates with your brother.
Do you still remember this dress?
You should throw out your old clothes.
Don't you know that you should cut off meaningless things in life?
Yes.
I am now
capable of buying
dresses more expensive than this.
But I will always
keep this dress in my closet.
Because you gave it to me.
If you had known it would come to this, you shouldn't have acted that way.
What happened back then
was my fault.
I apologize to you.
For the past three years,
I've been living in guilt.
You should apologize to my brother.
You hurt him.
No.
Don't go near him.
If you have anything to say, just say it to me.
I invited you here
to tell you that
I've decided to get over Yicheng.
Really?
You have to keep your words.
I'll keep my words.
You told me that
Yicheng and Miss Lu haven't been dating for long.
I genuinely had no idea that they were married.
It did catch us off guard.
But nothing
can stop true love.
I guess Miss Lu came from a wealthy family.
Who told you that?
Lu Li came from a middle-class family.
Despite that,
my mom likes her a lot.
Because she's an innocent, kind and genuine girl.
How is that possible?
Why would aunt approve of someone who came from a middle-class family?
Why not?
If my mom cared about her family background,
would she have agreed to let my brother date you?
Tell you what.
My mom handpicked lu Li.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten married in haste.
Then, what about Yicheng?
Did he agree to the marriage?
If he dares say no,
my dad will close down his company.
So did uncle threaten to disinvest if he refused to get married?
What... disinvestment?
That was just an analogy.
Their cakes are quite delicious.
Do you want me to recommend some to you?
It's okay.
I'll pick it myself.
Amy.
You don't have to book an air ticket anymore.
There are some changes.
Stupid Koala.
I asked you to race against time.
I didn't tell you to stay up all night.
(Data Driver, Game Operation)
Lu Li, let's go for lunch.
Let's go for lunch.
I'm not going with you.
Can you bring some food for me?
Anything will do.
You're getting too obsessed.
Let's go.
We'll go without you.
I'm finally done.
Lu,
have you been under too much pressure of late?
Do you want me to introduce my psychiatrist to you?
Lu, drink this.
Try this.
I won't lie to you.
Drink it.
A big gulp.
Don't spit it out.
Swallow it.
That's right.
What is this?
This is good stuff.
This can make you wiser, relieve fatigue, and boost your immunity.
My wife bought it.
I'm worried that you are overworking your brain and might suffer from hair loss.
Thanks.
Old Ape.
This is a supplement for seniors.
It's not suitable for young people like us.
What do you know?
You've finished the book.
So have you had any idea?
Lu...
This...
Ideas come from experience.
You have read so many books.
They will certainly be helpful.
Don't push yourself too hard.
Let's go.
Old man.
You're the old man.
You are the only old man here.
(Fasten your seat belts for your own safety)
Can you keep the volume down?
What?
I told you to keep the volume down.
I'm trying to put together a proposal.
So have you gotten any idea?
Not yet.
You've been keeping yourself inside the room.
The ideas can't find you.
You were the one who said that we must race against time.
I wanted you to stay focus.
I didn't tell you to lock yourself in the room
and study endlessly.
What a stupid Koala.
Anyway, you're always right.
Do you want to take a break and play a game with me?
What game?
Sit here.
Wait for me.
We will both
write down our respective terms.
But we can't reveal it to the other party.
Then, we will ask each other five questions
which can be only answered with yes or no.
Whoever guesses the term first will be the winner.
The loser will receive a forfeit.
All right.
Write it down.
Are you done?
Yes.
You can go first.
Is this a person's name?
No.
Is it an item?
No.
What about mine?
No, it isn't.
Is it alive?
Yes.
Is it a human?
No.
Is it an animal I fear?
Is it a bird?
(Bird)
(Koala)
It's a koala.
Just admit defeat.
Koala Lu.
Fine.
What's the forfeit?
A forehead flick.
Be gentle.
It won't be a forfeit if I do it gently.
Is that all?
If you think it's too gentle,
I can do it again.
That's enough.
Next game.
Do you still want to play even if you lost?
After playing the game with you,
I feel much more relaxed.
I was really troubled just now.
It felt as if the time had slowed down.
Do you know what this is called?
Theory of Relativity.
It means that
when you're working alone in the room,
time stays still.
But when you're playing a game with someone else,
time slips away quickly.
It went by just like that.
You'll never be able to catch up with it.
This is mine.
I got it!
What is it?
Nowadays, many games
allow players to team up and interact with others.
But why do they find it difficult
to make friends in real life?
Because they only interact with each other online.
They hardly meet each other in real life.
Exactly.
If we get to play the game in real life,
not only can we get feedback right on the spot,
but we can also befriend each other more easily.
So what's your idea?
If we can develop a game
that doesn't only allow them to make friends and raise virtual pets online,
but also enables them to play together in real life,
isn't that a good idea?
And then?
I haven't figured out the details yet.
I didn't know a koala could think.
Interesting.
Koala.
Don't you like your nickname?
It's too late now.
I gave you the nickname Koala
simply because I thought
you resembled this animal a lot.
I have an idea.
I know how to carry this out.
What is it?
I need to write it down immediately.
Did you stay up all night yesterday?
This is the finalized proposal.
I'll check it out later.
Go sleep now.
I'm going to work later.
I'm your boss.
I'm giving you a day off.
That...
Let me know if there's an issue.
No.
Whatever issue there is,
let's talk only after you wake up.
Go to sleep.
(Xuan Zhong Ji, Proposal)
(Game Overview)
Mr. Liu.
We have some ideas for the new game.
When will you be free?
If I'm to use a phrase to introduce this game,
(New Product Introduction)
(Breaking Circles) it'd be "breaking circles."
It can break the circle of co-workers,
circle of acquaintances, and circle of friends.
For players who work in big cities,
and have no time to make friends,
they can make more friends
(Features, Theme, Style) through this game
and will no longer feel lonely.
This is the true meaning behind the game "Xuan Zhong Ji".
So how can we achieve this?
It has easy and relaxing gameplay
that allows the players
to be themselves online.
If they run into a friend they want to get to know better,
they can meet up in real life.
With AR technology,
they can raise their pets together in real life,
and better their friendship.
We encourage our players to meet up in real life,
and with the help of the game, expand their social circles.
This is what motivates us to develop this game.
(MMO game of pet capturing)
Most of the mythical animals in the game
originated from "Shan Hai Jing".
Tentatively, we will name it "Xuan Zhong Ji".
Mr. Liu, what do you think?
Do you like the idea?
Mr. Jiang, I didn't expect you to be able to
come up with
such a novel core mechanic.
I'm very happy with the proposal.
(Xuan Zhong Ji)
Mr. Jiang. Stop here.
When can I get a definite answer from your side?
I'll report it to my superior once I get back.
It will take at most half a month.
There shouldn't be any problem.
Thanks for your trust.
Our headquarter indeed was very unhappy with Mr. Jiang's attitude.
However, Miss Li spoke highly of you,
and our headquarter decided to reconsider our collaboration.
Are you saying
that Li Man is still in charge of this project?
Miss Li has left me fully in charge of liaison with your company.
However, she is still the person in charge of the project.
Where is she now?
What are you doing?
Stop moving.
(Bug-free Amulet)
What is this?
(Downtime-free Amulet) Lu,
these are the best wishes
from all of us to you.
Lu,
thanks for making team A's name
known across the company.
Thanks, guys.
But you should thank Mr. Jiang instead.
He inspired me.
Lu, please.
Stop showing off your relationship in the company.
I can't stand it.
(Enchant)
Where did he go?
What are you doing?
Let go.
Give it to me.
Are you mad?
What are you doing?
You said you had no money.
Do you think I won't hit you?
Stop right there.
It's you.
Yicheng.
What happened three years ago had nothing to do with me.
You got the money.
Why are you still here?
Yicheng.
(Somerset Yuanrong Plaza Xinhai Serviced Apartment)
There are surveillance cameras here.
You should call the police.
Never mind.
He is a robber.
You have to call the police.
He's my dad.
What?
He is my gambler father
who has been abusing me since I was little.
How did you find out I live here?
Mr. Liu told me.
Can I help you?
I heard that you are involved
in our company's investment report.
Yes.
But someone else is now in charge of the liaison.
You don't have to worry about it.
Li Man, what do you want?
I only want to make it up for you.
I want to
pay back what I owed you in the past few years.
Do you want to make it up for me?
Sorry.
I won't accept it.
I'm here to make things clear.
From now on,
we'll never have anything to do with each other.
It won't happen again.
When our company finalizes the investment plan,
I'll leave.
I know you hate me.
Don't worry.
I won't show up in front of you anymore.
I hope you can keep your words.
For what happened three years ago,
I owed you an apology.
I'm sorry.
(Somerset Yuanrong Plaza Xinhai Serviced Apartment)
I'm taking this.
Even this?
Look at yourself.
Little chick.
Win by own draw.
You're back.
Seven characters.
Come here.
What's wrong?
Did you ask me for money
so that you could gamble?
So many years have passed,
and you haven't changed at all.
It seems like you're in no place to rebuke me.
You've given me the money.
It's none of your business how I spend the money.
You are here right in time.
I just lost a game.
Give me some more.
Fine.
I can give you the money.
But I need something of similar value in return.
Tong,
why didn't you go to work today?
I have lessons to attend.
Didn't I tell you to find out
if your brother goes home to have dinner with Lu Li?
Besides
monitoring their married life,
don't I have anything else to do?
Besides spending money and courting Chen Yiming,
what else do you do?
Mom.
I don't care.
It's Lu Li's birthday
in two days.
You need to figure something out to make them celebrate it at home.
They are busy.
Lu Li
has successfully designed a new game.
It has just passed EG's inspection.
What is EG?
What company is it?
Is it a big company?
I guess it's pretty good.
Judging from how extravagantly Li Man dresses now.
Li Man?
I'll take a shower.
Stay right there.
If you don't want to lose your allowance for the next month,
tell me everything
honestly and immediately.
What's going on?
What happened three years ago
had nothing to do with me.
You got the money.
Why are you still here?
(Hello.)
Hello.
Do you have time to spare?
I need your help to investigate a person.
(Miao Medicine, The Anti-itch Expert)
I bought you breakfast.
The doctor advised you to eat something light and healthy.
I saw the ointment you bought me.
Thanks.
Have you taken your dinner?
When will you come home?
(Jiang Yicheng)
He blocked me.
Childish.
He should be home soon.
Mom, why are you here?
I'm waiting for you.
Anything?
Let's talk upstairs.
It's okay. We'll just talk here.
What's wrong?
Is Li Man back?
Did Jiang Zitong tell you this?
I heard that you quarreled with Li
because of this woman.
Son. You're such a fool.
Have you forgotten what she did to you three years ago?
Mom, don't worry.
I know what to do.
If you know what to do,
you should stay away from that woman.
Don't let her ruin your relationship with Li.
Otherwise...
What?
Will you do what you did before?
You colluded with Lu Li to get me drunk,
then told dad to threaten me with the company.
Mom.
I've already got married under your coercion.
What else do you want?
I was the one who got you drunk.
It had nothing to do with Li.
Son, you can't accuse her.
Anyway,
I gave in and got married.
But it doesn't mean that I'll always be under your control.
Fine.
You're a grown-up and no longer under my control.
But son,
you have finally moved on
from what happened three years ago.
I don't want to see you repeating the same mistake,
much less hurting Li's feelings.
Mom, don't worry.
I'll send you home.
There's no need for that.
The driver is waiting for me out there.
There's something else.
The day after tomorrow is Li's...
Li.
Mom.
How long have you been here?
I've been here for quite some time.
You shouldn't believe Yicheng's words.
He was just arguing with me.
I know.
But what he said is the truth.
Li.
Mom, it's late now.
You should go home and rest early.
But...
We are fine.
We're doing good. Don't worry.
Just now...
I didn't know that you agreed to the marriage
because they threatened you with the company.
What could you have done even if you knew about it?
If I knew you were this reluctant,
I wouldn't have agreed to this.
Sorry.
You...
This has nothing to do with you.
You shouldn't be apologizing.
My mom wants me to get married.
Even if it wasn't you,
there would have been someone else too.
If you want a divorce now,
I can talk to mom...
I mean aunt.
Our agreement has a one-year term.
It hasn't been a year yet.
How can you breach a contract?
(Lu Li)
(Off the blacklist)
(Lu Li, Send)
(Lu Li)
I saw the ointment you bought me.
Thanks.
Have you taken your dinner?
When will you come home?
Sub by WeTV & Ripped by skysoultan ♔ Follow @skysoultan on Instagram ♔
Mom, what are you doing?
You're frightening me.
Mom has a difficult task for you.
No.
Sleep now.
One Chanel handbag of fall-winter collection.
Deal.
One more thing.
Sleep now.
Can you make an announcement at home
and tell everyone Jiang Yicheng was adopted?
All of you were adopted.
Let's sleep.
Who's there?
It's me.
Yiming.
Coming.
Yiming.
Urgent.
Please help me.
What happened?
It smells so good.
Are you making breakfast?
Let's talk as we eat.
What's wrong with him?
He was the one who asked me out for a movie.
And I've agreed to it.
But he canceled the date.
He said that he had something to do
and he would call me again.
I sent him texts too.
But he replied with very short and insincere answers.
Sometimes, he even dismissed me with some stickers.
That's really strange.
He was very friendly the last time we went out for a meal.
Why are all the programmers so eccentric?
Li.
Are you listening to me?
What did you say?
I was talking about Huang Renxun.
What's wrong with Da Huang?
Never mind.
What's wrong with you?
You seem distracted.
Did something happen?
Where did she go early in the morning?
I can't find her.
Yiming, what's the matter?
So Li Man is his ex-girlfriend.
And she most probably ditched him back then.
Although I have no idea
what happened between them,
I know
that he hasn't got over Li Man.
He is cheating on you.
It was yesterday when I found out
that he agreed to marry me
because his parents' disinvestment coerced him.
Xiaoqi.
Do you think I've made the wrong decision?
You shouldn't be thinking like that.
He was coerced by his parents.
It has nothing to do with you.
That was what he said too.
At least he's a conscientious man.
Let's put this aside.
If I knew that his ex-girlfriend would be back,
and he still had feelings for her,
I would never have agreed to marry him.
For him, it's nothing
but a shackle of wedlock.
Their breakup has nothing to do with you.
You don't have to feel bothered by that.
Moreover,
you are now married to Jiang Yicheng.
If Li Man intends to do anything,
it will only make her the third party in this relationship.
But...
But our marriage is bounded by an agreement.
So what?
You're protected by the law.
Li, what's wrong with you?
You look miserable the whole day,
and are not acting like yourself.
I thought
as long as we get to spend some time together,
he will surely develop feelings for me.
I didn't know it was just my wishful thinking.
He's just fulfilling the agreement.
Trying to win a person's heart
resembles a marathon.
Even if you can't see the faraway finishing line,
you shouldn't panic,
let alone give up.
Because
if you want to win the marathon,
you have to first finish the course.
Every time you make a turn,
there may be a chance of winning.
When have you become so philosophical?
You caught me.
I watched many romantic movies recently.
I was really moved by them.
Didn't you tell me
not to take the initiative?
I studied dialectics before.
We should look at it from a developmental perspective.
Let me give you an example.
Jiang Yicheng
is an encrypted computer.
Li Man has missed the chance
to key in the passcode.
Now, you've got the opportunity.
Isn't that what you're best at?
But you don't need a passcode
to unlock an encrypted computer.
You only need to key in some codes.
It doesn't matter how you do it.
It has developed into what it is today.
You have to do it even if you need to break it open.
Do you get me?
You certainly are
Gu Mo's sister.
What do you mean?
Both of you use a weirdly effective way
to encourage others.
I'm nothing like him.
He is
a cunning, wicked, and two-faced man.
He only knows how to play dirty.
And
I'm giving you my advice openly and honestly.
Fine.
You're the most upright.
All right.
I am
not a genius in love,
but
I can still be your amateur coach.
Jiang Zitong.
Answer it.
I'm at my best friend's place.
Now?
I'm busy at the moment.
She hung up.
What did she say?
She said she wanted to bring me somewhere.
Go with her.
What about you?
We're just going shopping.
We can do it any other day.
You know what.
You have to build a good rapport with your sister-in-law.
Convince her to side with you.
Then, you will gain one more supporter.
Thanks, Xiaoqi.
There's no need for thanks.
A best friend is the most important thing on earth.
You have to repay my kindness in the future.
All right.
Hurry up and return her call.
Tell her to come over.
(Jiang Zitong)
Get in the car.
I made you a glass of fruit juice.
Thanks,
Sister-in-law.
Where are we going?
Don't worry.
You can take a nap.
I'll wake you up when we arrive.
You drove three hours
just to bring me here?
This place
looks like where couples usually hang out.
Are you secretly in love with me?
Cut the nonsense.
I'll park the car.
Wait for me here.
Hurry up.
Go straight.
All right.
(Lovers)
To the right.
Okay.
Congratulations!
All right.
Excuse me.
What are they doing?
Can you see the two rocks?
They call these the Lover's Rocks.
Starting from one of these rocks,
if you can reach the second rock blindfolded,
you will receive the deity's blessings.
Really?
It's up to you to believe it or not.
Sister-in-law,
you should queue up for it too.
The queue is too long.
Forget it.
It's free.
Just give it a try.
What if it really works?
Also,
I'm going to buy some drinks.
Join the queue.
I'll wait for you here.
Sure.
If you fail,
you can always try again.
There's still one more chance.
(Lu Li, There's No Update At The Moment)
Where did she go?
She didn't even update her Moments.
(A new message from Chen Yiming)
(Location, Xinhai Ancient Town)
He went in.
Is he really going to confess to me?
Is it going to work?
Hopefully.
Lord, please hear my prayers.
I need them together before I can get my luxurious handbag.
Yiming.
Lu Li is my sister-in-law.
You can't have any feelings for her.
What are you saying?
Both she and Yicheng are my good friends.
I wish them happiness.
(Lovers)
(Jiang Yicheng)
He's here.
Let's go.
Move.
What's going on?
Are you even allowed to do this?
Is this fate?
This must be fate.
Well.
That's great.
Fate has brought you two together.
Congratulations!
Nice.
Congratulations!
They are embarrassed.
Yea.
It seems like
the Lover's Rocks are working.
Do you want to add each other on WeChat?
Do it.
It must be fate.
We know each other.
Do you?
It must be fate.
You have to cherish the person before you.
Allow me to remind you
that we provide Love Talisman too.
Do you want one?
It's okay.
Let's go.
All right.
Let's give them applause as we send them off.
Thanks.
Mission accomplished.
Let's go back.
Where to go?
From this moment,
we are on a date.
Let's go.
