Episode: 9
So fragrant. Being waken by this smell every day is a kind of happiness. You've made such a diverse breakfast like this. Why don't you call me? What's this? How bitter it is! This is a whole-wheat bread. Ruan Dongsheng, what are you doing? Why is this so bitter, too? This is balsam pear and wrinkle leaf parsley juice which helps to lose weight, filter your stomach. It's really beneficial to you. This dish is bitter as well? Chinese lettuce stirred with egg, you can try. This? Porridge with lily, almond, and lotus seeds. Ruan Dongsheng. You come here to harm me, don't you? It is said that before Xiao Man, eat bitterness, taste raw.* Xiao Man: is one of 24 solar terms according to the Lunar calendar At this time, having bitter dishes is very helpful. Of course, you don't care. Can you consider the feeling of those who have a sensitive taste like me? If so, before you eat these dishes you can see their initial taste. Though it's bitter it also leaves a very mellow fragrance, right? Absolutely not. No. How can you suddenly be so sensitive to bitter tastes like this? You have... recovered your taste, haven't you? Not completely. But I can regain bitterness. Why? Your loss of taste is a mental obstacle caused by emotion. To put it simply, it's a mental illness. People having this illness may have suffered from emotional attacks or emotional hurt leading to loss of taste or even smell. So recently, is there anything that can provoke your emotion recently? Of course, there is. Quickly tell me. Actually, I can't determine whether it is related to this or not. But I want to try. Hey. Xiao Nan, why are you here? I almost forget this. President Ruan. You get up so early. I come here to look for Eva. Seeing that she hasn't woken up yet I have to wait. Look for me, for what? The cuisine magazine has come to us hoping that we can take a photo for their magazine cover this issue. Special issue on Qi Xi Festival (Chinese Valentine). I've agreed with them, we'll go tomorrow. I come here to tell you that. This matter can be reported via mobile phone, can't it? I come here myself and watch out you two by the way. Right? Special issue on Tanabata festival (Chinese Valentine). Couple photos? Who is the male model? I don't know. How come is it you? Why can't it be me? Don't forget we're husband and wife. Hey, what is your plan? President Ruan, we are about to start. Come, prepare yourself, everyone. Be well-prepared. Ready. Come, come closer. Come, you two look over here. Come, three.. two... one... Well-done. Be more intimate. Well-done. Come. Three.. two... one... Beautiful. Good. Well-done. I need the feeling of two lovers who are madly in love. Hey. Just take photos. You just have to pose it perfunctorily I don't like posing. President Xiao, you are blocking the camera. Please step aside. Come on, closer. Not right. Not sweet enough. How about this? Eva, you act as if you were kissing President Ruan. I need a genuine position for you two. How about we make it real? The contract didn't mention such a wide standard like that. Do we need to modify the contract? Great. Ten-point! President Ruan. Do you see that? Ten-point. Your bow-holding posture isn't correct. This arm is not strong enough. You should practice more. Your waist as well. I'm ok or not, I don't need you to tell me Hey, President Ruan. Just a discussion. Don't be mad at me. So strange. Don't know what's the matter with that Ruan Dongsheng. Does he take the wrong pills? Why does he suddenly change from an anti-sexual President to a seductive goblin? Suddenly makes me lose control. Who makes you lose control? Why are you here? The make-up artist seems busy so I come to help you dry your hair. Ruan Dongsheng. Have you been hit on your head? Are you aware of what you are doing? I'm very aware of what I am doing. Then you say what is the reason for your bothering me all day? Manager Luo says if you want a girl's kiss, you have to provoke her heart. And the way to provoke her heart is to indulge her, be nice to her. How is it? Do you want to kiss me now? What are you talking about? Eva. I know me doing like this can threaten you. But you are my medicine. I have no other choice. Medicine? Why am I your medicine? You want to know why I recover one taste, don't you? The most possible reason is that your last kiss with me. Your kiss helped me recover one taste. What kiss? When did we kiss? Is your memory wrong? If there isn't why don't we try? Ruan Dongsheng. Isn't it just a kiss? Don't make it hard for Eva. I'll try with you. Go. You go out first. Why do you let me out? I need to talk with President Ruan in person. Xiao Nan. Why do you two men lock the door during the day? Open the door, Xiao Nan. We have agreed, haven't we? Do you have any cooperative spirit? Cooperative spirit? What did you promise me? I just agreed that I wouldn't prevent you from chasing Eva but I didn't agree that you could behave so shamelessly with her. What I said is true. What can I do to make you believe me? You even use such a fictional reason like that to just take advantage of her. If so I will tell this Manager Luo so that she doesn't have to go anymore. It's up to you. You think you can threaten me with just a woman? Fine. I heard that Manager Luo had blocked you recently. You're sure that without my help you can make an appointment with her? Don't consider yourself important. You really think that you're the center of the universe. Without you, people can't survive? Alo, Manager Luo. President Ruan. I'm just kidding with you. Why do you take it seriously? Then we finish our negotiation? You know what to do next, right? I know. Later on, when you and Eva appear together I will give in. But... you have to control your behaviors. Okay? Deal. What's up? Can you kiss me now? Ruan Dongsheng. He's such a fool. Is there anyone asking girls straightforwardly like him? Eva. Don't be like him who was controlled by hormones. Losing your dignity when you're getting old. Eva, have you gone to bed? What you're afraid of will come to you. No. I have to calm down, calm down. Tell him that I've gone to bed. I've gone to bed. Talk to you tomorrow. Then who is talking to me? I'm such a fool. I don't mean anything. It's just my shower is out of work. Can I take a bath in your bathroom? Take a bath? He is madly exploring my limit. No. Calm down. Don't have a bath today. I will have someone fix it tomorrow. I'm having a very important meeting with my customers tomorrow afternoon. It is related to the development of my company in the next ten years. Moreover, this customer also has mysophobia. I'm afraid that my hygiene will affect my company's cooperation. If I don't succeed, who will take responsibility for this? I only give you half an hour. No more. It's ok, that's enough. Thank you. He dares come here to threaten me. He wants me to fail? No way. Five more minutes. If you've finished, go out. I have to go to bed. Can you do me a favor? I forget my towel. Wait for me. Open the door, I'll give you. Can you bring it to me? I can't go out. I'll throw it for you. Thank you. If you've finished, go out. Don't challenge me, I'm begging you. Can you do me another favor? I forget my bathrobe already. Is this Luo Yiren taught you? Coming to people's room but forget both towel and bathrobe. I tell you something. My patience is limited. Don't bully me. If you can't be patient what will you do? Sorry, I'll take your clothes. Why do you stay away from me? I just want your kiss to experiment. Is that horrible? President Ruan, even if you're telling the truth you should come to Yuanyuan. Why do you come to me? It's sorry that Yuanyuan doesn't want to see me. So I think you and Yuanyuan have nearly the same deoxyribose nucleic acids. Maybe your kiss works. Oh my gosh. His trick is so devious. He makes me dig a hole to bury myself. President Ruan. It's not that I don't want to help you. But as you see. Late a night, a man and a woman what if we set a fire accidentally then create an unclear point in our cooperative relationship It will be so disadvantageous. Don't worry about this. This is just an experiment. I can't represent anything. Unless you have thought of crossing the line with me. How can I have the thought of crossing the line with you? So why are you scared? Who is scared? Kiss then kiss. Isn't it just a kiss? I, Eva, will consider it as a contribution to the experiment. Under the colorful lights, our existence is shone brightly Do you have any feelings? It turns out that we are always embracing love The leading star in my life is always so twinkling How is it? Have your taste recover? No. How come? Don't you say that if I kiss you your taste will recover? Is it because the time is too short? Give it another try. You are such a deceiver. I was so naive to believe in your nonsense words. What I've said is true. I don't deceive you. Don't come here. If you come here, I will call the police. Report that you harass me. You just take the lead to kiss me, don't you? Then the one who should call the police is me. I... It's fine if I don't call the police. But this time let me take the lead. You've gone crazy. Whose house is this? You force me to be sneaky like this. Ruan Dongsheng is too dangerous. If it continues like this there will be problems soon. Hello. I can't bear it anymore. I have to move out. What's the matter? What happened? Ruan Dongsheng has gone crazy. Last night, he used his charm to seduce me. If it continues like this there will be problems soon. Damn it. He turns out quite great. I was looking down on him? What are you saying? Nothing. Eva, we've all grown-ups. There are many things you have to face yourself you can't hide from them. Yesterday you didn't tell me like this. What happened to you in one night? I've thought carefully. Actually, Ruan Dongsheng is not that bad. We should consider things with an innovative view. Give him a chance. Also, give yourself a chance. I have to go to work, I hang up now. Bye-bye. Hello, hello? He's hung up? Men are all unreliable. I should go on my own. Alo, President Ruan. I've come to the place you said. But I can't see the customer. Does that one have any characteristics? If it's my expectation he is the one who dresses the most fancily. President Ruan, what do you mean? President Ruan. Excuse me. I couldn't contact you so I had President Ruan do me a favor. I'm really curious how you could convince him? This matter is a men's issue. I can't tell you. Fine. You always want to meet me. What do you want? Can't you see that? I'm pursuing you. President Xiao. I'm very busy. Please don't joke with me. I'm serious. Accepting my pursuing or not is your matter. Being able to pursue you or not is my capacity. I know that I was wrong before. But I still hope that you can give me another chance. If you want to play with me let's see who is better. This is not a really good beginning. President Xiao, have you been well-prepared? But don't you say that we will play the merry-go-round? Why are we here? The merry-go-round is uninteresting. If you want to play, let's play something adventurous. What's up? You don't dare? How can there be a girl who doesn't like the merry-go-round? I don't like it. Fasten the seat belt, we are about to start. Yiren, I'm done. Tell it to stop. Close your eyes and everything will be fine. We start already? Are you alright? I'm not. I can't stand on my feet. So dizzy. How can there be such an indifferent girl like you? Don't save people in need. Alo, is that 120? There is a weak man here who needs... Who's weak? Please don't waste the national resources. President Xiao, if you're alright now we've done today. I have a lot of things to do. The "merry-go-round" plan has failed. Let's start with the "hero saves the beauty" plan. You don't like the merry-go-round but you like the Ferris wheel. You still have something girly. Who said? No way. Don't worry, I'm here. Stop! Is this girl a rabbit? President Xiao, call the police. President Xiao, help me. The money is for you, I don't need it. Please don't call the police. Don't call the police. We're on the same side. You... Boss. The total revenue from all of our branches is 273.689 million RMB this month increases by 4.6% in comparison with that of last month. Besides, there are still four stores looking for their locations. A girl goes out early in the morning. Where will she go? Then shouldn't you ask her directly? I've sent a message, she doesn't reply. How about making a phone call? I've done that, her phone is off. Then she doesn't want to let you know where she goes. It seems that I need to hire some guardians to protect her in silence. Or else I can't be at ease. Ruan Dongsheng. What is this? Safe distance agreement. First, after 20 pm, Beijing time zone you can't enter my room even in case the pipe is out of work, the wall collapse, or the Earth explodes. Second, in the common zone, you can expose the upper part of your neck and part of your arm. No naked in any form. Who violates this will be punished for harassment. Third, except for an emergency, there will be no kinship or eye contact. No kissing in any form. Who violates will have to move out. No longer sharing the same house. President Ruan, this has been duplicated. It will take effect after your signing. Or else I'll move out right away. What do you want? I'll see Miss Eva off. Secretary Ni. You've finished watching the drama? President. I will keep today's matter as a secret till the day I die. Please don't fire me. If you let the fourth person know about today's matter I will donate all of your salaries. Yes. I will keep my mouth shut about this matter. Go out. Yiren. Is that your feet still hurt? I'm fine. I'll treat it myself when I'm home. Wait a minute. What do you want? Okay. Now I can see you go home without worry. What's up, you don't want to go? Then I'll go with you. You're... Yiren. Listen. It seems that a cat is meowing. You seem to like cats. Why don't you raise one? My parents didn't let me raise a cat when I was small. They were afraid that it would affect my studies. When I've grown up I'm afraid that I can't be responsible for it. It's just a mental burden on you. People living this life should be in comfort. Overthinking will not give you true happiness. This is the biggest conflict between you and me. I can't live such an arbitrary life like you. Take this. Why do you give it to me? Isn't this your cat? Moreover, have you ever met a street cat that is a thoroughbred ragdoll? President Xiao. Your trick is quite over. Hey. Consider that I am so sincere. At least, can you add my wechat again? Why do I need you? I should have bought her a necklace. You're still useful. I've regained my bitter taste. How about the others? Not yet. But I've found my medicine. I'm confident that I can regain the other tastes. What is that miraculous medicine? Quickly tell me. Actually, this medicine is human. Uncle Gu, I've found her. The power of love. I have to offer incense to my master. This means that four tastes of life have already had the heir. Master. You are about to have a grandchild. Uncle Gu, it's still soon to say this. In love, you have to completely avoid beating around the bush. You have to deal with it quickly. There is a good saying like this. Youth is not forever. Quickly fall in love. But I'm afraid that if I'm too rush she will suffer great pressure. The young can't understand girls. She says she doesn't want but inside, she is in need of it. If you have the chance, grasp it. If you don't have to create one, then grasp it. You don't want to talk with me anymore? How can it be? You're the big sister in World Angel, my senior. The new is constantly replacing the old. World Angel will be your world sooner or later. I don't dare. If others hear what you say, they will think that I'm extravagant and I overestimate myself. What I say is all the truth. Do you know why I didn't like you? Because you're so similar to me. We are in this field The scariest thing is being replaced by others. Why do you suddenly tell me this? Because I realize that jealousy makes people ugly. So I accept the truth I will be replaced sooner or later. Moreover, during the time I work with you, I think that you really have potentials. If I am to be replaced by another I hope that will be you. In this field, we will have many more connections I hope that we won't have any uncomfortable affairs. I sincerely apologize to you for what I have done before. Also, hope that you will forgive my unfair treat to you before. Rebecca. I really admire your professionalism. I also want to learn more from you. I don't have high hopes that we'll be friends but I don't hope that we'll be enemies. Don't be deceived by her. How come? We are all thousand-year-old foxes. We will have some godly wisdom. But it seems that she starts to suspect me. I've found out the one who broke into your house. He might be hired by her. Why didn't you tell me sooner? Isn't it because there is Ruan Dongsheng protecting you? I want to find out the evidence before telling you. But I don't expect that this girl is so rush like this. So what is your plan? If she takes the initiative to come to me I can't miss this chance. What's the matter, are you alright, Eva? I'm alright. Why is she running away? She has run away. Does she eat gone-off things? No. What's the matter? Alo, boss. Miss Eva has just gone away. Then Rebecca is following her. I don't know where they are leaving for. Continue following them, I'll be there right away. Okay. Eva. Eva. Hi. Rebecca. Rebecca, why are you here? I see that you're uncomfortable I'm worried about you so I follow you here. I don't expect that you're not in the hospital but in a cafe. Come, Rebecca. Take a seat. Sorry. I ate something spoiled this morning. I'm fine now. Accidentally, my sister comes here. So I drop in to meet her. Your sister? I haven't heard you mentioned her before. If we've met each other then let me introduce myself a little bit. This person is Eva's twin sister who is going abroad to settle down. She comes back this time to take her things left at Eva's house and her clothes. Hello, I'm Eva's sister. Hi. Have we met before somewhere? Have we? I remember that. It was the 30th anniversary of World Angel. You and President Ruan fell off the balcony which frightened me. Right. he held me tight. That time we even... If so you also know Ruan Dongsheng? It's not just knowing. He has had a crush on me since high school. He even considers me as his fiancée. You are his fiancée? Sorry, Rebecca. I am always not telling you. Actually, President Ruan is my future brother-in-law. Because he doesn't want to publish this So... You have to help me keep this a secret. If I'm not wrong you're living with Ruan Dongsheng? Brother-in-law lives with my sister-in-law. It seems not really good. We hire the same house, not live in the same house. What a good day is a today! Why are people all here? You come here for Yuanyuan, don't you? Yes. I come here for Yuanyuan. Why does the script suddenly change? You have to pay me more. Miss Rebecca. I know there isn't a good rumor recently. So I want to clarify a little bit. Or else it will adversely affect Miss Eva's reputation. President Ruan. Please. I will listen to you attentively. Miss Eva's sister and I do have a relationship. She tells me to take care of Eva. But Miss Eva's house used to be broken into. She was even attacked. For the sake of her safety, I have to move to her house to take care of her. I don't think you have any idea about this. Really, Eva? Why don't you tell me about this? Are you ok? Did you lose anything? Nothing. I just suspect that this was not simply a break-in but someone was targeting ate me. Right, Rebecca. You're so knowledgeable like that can you know who that person was? How can I know? Now Eva is famous like that. You have to be more careful. Don't cause trouble. I won't interrupt your family meeting anymore. Don't go, you haven't ordered your coffee yet. Do you threaten me? You think I'm scared. Rebecca, why are you here? This fat girl's size of shoes is not right. Alo, secretary Yang. Investigate one person for me. President Ruan. This is the twin sister that I've told you about. She has gone already. Don't play drama anymore. I take the car, take your time to talk. Useless teammate. What did you just say? I don't get it. If it's like that can I borrow your sister my fiancée Miss Yuanyuan for a day? No. There is even such a good thing as this? True. I want to date you. So moving. I have never dated any handsome guy before. I don't need money anymore. No, I'll give you back my money. I hire you to be my real sister, not my sister who falls for men easily. He's so handsome. President Ruan. That temple has its rules. We gotta go now. Handsome guy. See you later. My number is 1386969. Remember to call me. Handsome guy. I haven't got on yet. I have something to tell you. I'm busy, leave it later. How long will you want to avoid this? You'd rather look for someone to act like you than face your past? My past is not to be faced but to be forgotten. Do you have any difficulty? You can tell me so that I can help you deal with it. I don't have any difficulty. I'm satisfied with my current life. Why do I have to face my past? To me, my past is full of pains. President Ruan. If you really want to help me don't force me to face my past. You really don't believe me? It's not that I don't believe you. I just believe in myself more. Am I was too unreasonable today?
