Marry Me, or Not? (2015–2016): Season 1, Episode 8 - Episode #1.8 - full transcript
Do you have you any regrets in life?
Although it happened ten years ago,
would you still have pangs of regret
whenever you think of it?
You keep thinking about it.
You keep thinking about it.
"Would things have turned out better
if only I did things differently?"

Chien-yao.
Sheng-nan.
I'm not sure when I'll be back,
but I hope I'll see you again.
Okay.
Chien-yao!
Good luck to you!
"I like you" are three simple words.
Why was it so hard for me to say it?
After some time,
I finally had the answer to my question.
No matter how much I like someone,
I can't let go of my ego.
That's because I'm afraid.
I am afraid of rejection.
I am afraid of getting hurt.
I am afraid that my lack of confidence
will be seen by him.
Therefore,
to protect my integrity,
I chose to bid him farewell nonchalantly.
I pretended that I didn't care.
Chien-yao, I like you!
I really like you!
Many years have passed.
But I still find myself wondering,
"What if I told him my feelings?
Would things be different?"
Sheng-nan,
I'm counting on you
for the graduation trip.
Sure, Sir.
I'll be in touch with you next week
once I've finalized the details.
Bye-bye, sir.
Watch out!
Miss, are you all right?
Sheng-nan?
Chien-yao.
Hang in there.
Does it hurt?
Let me take a look.
A little.
It's swollen.
I'll take you to a doctor.
It's all right.
I'll be fine once I've taken a rest.
It's not as bad as it seems.
No, we should go.
-Let's go.
-Chien-yao
I'll be fine once I take a little rest.
-Just put me down.
-It's fine.
Why are you here?
The school director wanted to discuss
the graduation trip with me.
What about you?
My house is just nearby.
So I often come here to play basketball.
The same people meeting at the same place.
It feels like the old times.
I think you tend to get hit
by the balls I throw.
Let's go.
Longshiang Travel Agency wants to sue me
for embezzlement?
For 457 TWD?
We absolutely believe you.
We at Wufu Travel Agency
have the back of all of our employees.
We've even gotten you a legal counsel.
Hello, come here.
Justin!
Justin was my divorce lawyer.
Justin, this is
Assistant Manager Tsai Huan-chen.
Hello.
I'm your appointed lawyer.
Are you pretending not to know me?
What are you trying to pull?
Hello.
I'm Tsai Huan-chen.
Justin only deals with divorce cases.
He is the most reliable lawyer
that I've known.
I had to beg him
to take this case.
Is that so?
I owe you a huge favor
for finding such a great lawyer for me.
Excuse me.
I'd like to speak to Ms. Tsai in private
on the details of the dispute
between her and Longshiang Travel Agency.
All right, you guys discuss it.
Bye.
Thank you.
I've gone through your files.
I'd like to ask you a question, Ms. Tsai.
Do you recall the transaction flow
for the 457 TWD involved?
You knew I'm the accused.
Why did you agree to be my lawyer?
Please answer my questions.
Ms. Tsai.
Longshiang Travel Agency accused you
that on March 4th last year,
you received the group travel fees
made by Futai Communications.
At that time, they made some cash payment.
When you returned to the company,
the amount returned
versus the amount received
had a deficit of 457 TWD.
Do you think I took the 457 TWD?
Are you saying that
the opposition has an ulterior motive
for suing you?
What's the matter with him?
He said he wanted
to talk to me in private.
And here he is, talking about the case.
Is he really going to treat me
only as his client?
Please answer my questions, Ms. Tsai.
I have no idea.
But we are both
trying to get Times Corporation
for a collaboration.
So you're saying
they are trying to eliminate a competitor
by filing a suit against you?
Is there anyone else
who had the access to the money?
Do you remember the details?
Aside from me,
an accountant was also involved.
Is that all you would like to ask?
I'm giving you another chance.
If you apologize to me now,
saying that you're sorry,
I might just consider forgiving you.
Of course not.
I'd like to know
more about you.
Do you have any conflicts with
any employee in Longshiang Travel Agency?
This is very important, Ms. Tsai.
As your lawyer,
I need you to answer all the questions
in a truthful and honest manner.
I've always been a forgiving person.
I forgave two siblings who messed with me.
Do you think I have made any enemies?
All right.
I understand.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Is that all?
From now on,
I need you to stop answering all calls
from Longshiang Travel Agency.
Do not attempt to contact them in private.
Check your inboxes
and send all your work files to me.
And most importantly,
do not ignore my calls.
Even if you're in the toilet.
Noted.
Mr. Hao,
I'm begging you.
You must win this lawsuit.
I'm scared.
I will.
What are you guys eavesdropping on?
Huan-huan is being sued by Longshiang.
Sued?
Why is she getting sued?
Rumor has it that Huan-huan
is involved in an embezzlement.
We hired a lawyer
to help her with the case.
That's not the point.
The lawyer that was hired is...
Are you the lawyer?
Come with me.
I know everyone must be curious
about the situation.
Let me clarify one thing.
Mr. Hao
is my lawyer.
He is not my boyfriend.
And
he is Hao Sheng-nan's brother.
Biological brother.
Did Huan-huan just said
that the lawyer isn't her boyfriend,
but Sheng-nan's brother?
So he's not Sheng-nan's ex-boyfriend?
That's right.
How did he become her brother?
And if Huan-huan
said that lawyer isn't her boyfriend,
it means they have broken up.
Didn't Sheng-nan bawl her eyes out
because Huan-huan
was together with that lawyer?
The whole company thought
Huan-huan was the third party.
Jeez, what is going on?
It's so confusing.
I know!
Based on my 16 years of experience
of watching K-drama,
Sheng-nan
and that lawyer
must not be related by blood.
They're both in love with one another
but their relationship is opposed
by their parents.
So they had no choice but to separate.
After breaking up,
the lawyer got together with Huan-huan
but he still holds
Sheng-nan dearly in his heart.
Even though they have broken up,
it hurts for Sheng-nan
to watch the man she loves
getting together with Huan-huan.
Now that Huan-huan knows the truth,
she has decided to give them her blessings
and breaks up with the lawyer.
How is that possible?
This storyline is ridiculous.
-What do you know?
-What do you know?
What are you doing?
What were you thinking
by becoming Tsai Huan-chen's lawyer?
Are you guys on speaking terms?
Stop asking about me and Tsai Huan-chen.
So you guys aren't on speaking terms?
Did you guys
break up for good?
If you're planning on using me
to get back at her,
stop it.
She knows now that I'm your brother.
I know that.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
you told her the truth
to salvage the relationship, didn't you?
Yes.
But based on my years of knowing her,
after you told her the truth,
she got angrier.
No matter what explanations you gave,
she thought
that you and I are working together
to mess with her, right?
And in my years of knowing you,
despite only taking on divorce cases,
you willingly took on her case,
knowing that your actions
would be rebuffed.
That's not like you.
The only explanation
is that you've fallen in love with her.
And from what I know about you,
you'd probably tell me
not to fall for her, wouldn't you?
-Of course not.
-What?
On the contrary,
I'm here to offer you an advice.
Hao Meng.
If you really love someone,
don't put your ego ahead of your love.
I know that if you sincerely apologize
to Tsai Huan-chen,
she'll forgive you.
Are you telling me to reconcile with her?
As a sister,
I hope that you think things through.
Tell me the truth.
I want you to give it a good thought.
Stop overthinking for once.
That's all there is to it.
I'm going back to work now.
If Tsai Huan-chen gets back together
with Hao Meng
and be on good terms with me,
she won't snatch
Jiang Chien-yao away from me.
Besides, nothing good will come out
of their relationship.
Hao Meng won't marry her anyway.
They won't have any future.
Hao Sheng-nan, you are so smart.
This is what you call killing two birds
with one stone.
Please cancel my meeting
for tomorrow morning.
Schedule an appointment with
Hao Sheng-nan from Wufu Travel Agency.
Are you referring to Ms. Hao,
Assistant Manager from Wufu Travel Agency?
But sir, didn't Mr. Chin instruct us
to give the project
to Assistant Manager Tsai Huan-chen?
I'm well aware of that.
But don't worry,
I'll personally speak to Hao Sheng-nan.
All right, I've got to go.
Just do as I say.
Understood, sir.
You're stalking me?
You've been following me all day.
It must have been tiring for you.
DELETE
Who ordered you to follow me?
Tell me!
I'm just doing as I was told.
I don't know anything.
You're just doing your job, huh?
That's easy.
Don't worry.
I'll go easy on you.
I'll even let you follow me.
No matter how much that person
is paying you,
I'll pay you three times your paycheck.
-Three times my paycheck?
-But
the photos that will be taken by you
will be decided by me.
That's all I ask for.
Thank you.
Not again!
It's another empty gasoline can.
What is this?
Sir.
We received another suspicious package.
This is the third time this month.
What's the big deal?
Just have it recycled.
What's more important now
is the lawsuit against Tsai Huan-chen.
These...
These are the accounting statements
from Longshiang Travel Agency.
Those are only some of it.
There are two more boxes in my car.
Bring them up to me.
Two more boxes?
What's with the question?
-Get going.
-Right.
Oh, yes.
After you're done with that,
I want you to sift through
the past ten years of client database
that Longshiang Travel Agency has.
Ten years?
Isn't that too much?
Not at all.
I mean,
how much are you being paid for this?
Aren't we wasting too much time
on the case?
The return of investment for this is low.
Who is the boss now?
You're the boss.
I'll go get the boxes of files.
Good day, ladies and gentlemen.
Here's the latest news.
A 40-year-old woman named Yang from Taipei
caught fire after being doused
with flammable gas
by an unknown assailant.
She suffered burns on 42% of her body.
The victim is kept in the ICU
for observation.
She is still under intensive care.
Wasn't he pretending
like nothing happened?
I can't believe he's calling already.
Hello?
Hello, Ms. Tsai.
Yes.
How can I help you, Mr. Hao?
You'll be off in 30 minutes.
I'd like you to stop by my office
to discuss with you
the Longshiang Travel Agency case.
I can't. I've made plans.
I see.
How about tomorrow?
Tomorrow won't work too.
I've got an appointment with a client.
I've just taken a look at my schedule.
I'll be busy every night this week.
Ms. Tsai.
This case
will determine the fate of your job.
Could you set aside
your personal grudge for this?
You're mistaken, Mr. Hao.
I don't let my personal feelings
mix with my job.
I just happen to have something on.
Okay then, that's fine.
In that case, I propose meeting you
in your office tomorrow.
Thank you very much, Mr. Hao.
I hope it's not too much trouble for you.
I can't believe this lady.
I can't believe this guy.
NO FRIENDSHIP AFTER A BREAKUP
What time will you be picking me up
from home tonight?
Sorry, I sent it to the wrong person.
Please ignore that.
I'm done moving the boxes.
You're done?
Do you still need something?
If you're done, you can leave.
Really?
I'll drive you back.
I really underestimated you.
I deliberately sent that wrong message,
but you pretended as if nothing happened.
I've got to hand it to you.
Boss.
I thought you said
you were going to send me home?
You are home.
But my house isn't here.
Get out.
Are you playing a joke on me, sir?
I told you my house isn't here.
Get out.
Oh, Hsin.
You should know.
Not every boss is as kind as me.
Some of us won't find the time to
send our employees home, you know?
Get your car fixed.
Don't forget.
Call a taxi next time
and bill it to the company.
Okay, run along now.
Don't hit on ladies by the road.
Yes, sir.
Call me when you're home.
Mr. Hao.
Yes?
What brings you here?
I sent my assistant home.
I passed by your place.
Don't get the wrong idea though.
I didn't come here to see you.
Now that you're done, why don't you leave?
Don't linger around for too long.
You're an eyesore.
Are you afraid that your new friend
would see me with you?
Why do I feel like your tone has changed
since we met in the office?
-What do you mean changed?
-You were all formal and businesslike.
Why are you talking to me
as if you're my ex-boyfriend now?
-It's so weird.
-I just wanted to remind you that
you're facing a lawsuit
against Longshiang Travel Agency.
Choose who you are dating carefully.
Don't worry.
My new friend is very sincere.
You just met him.
How would you know that he's honest?
Unlike someone, he wouldn't use
an alias to date me.
He wouldn't get his sister to act like
his ex-girlfriend to fool me.
Sometimes I think a lawyer
is no different from a con man.
I'm really happy that you found
a new guy in such a short time.
But I've got to tell you this,
an honest and sincere guy
would never fall for a lady
with ulterior motives.
Mind your own business!
Let's make one thing very clear.
I dumped you.
Not the other way round.
Don't ever come knocking on my door
and bother me.
Yes. I came here to see you.
Why?
I came here to tell you
that I...
I...
I...
Your phone is ringing. Pick it up.
I'll pick it up when you're done talking.
-I can't talk when it's ringing!
-Just say it!
How am I supposed to say when it keeps
ringing? It's such a buzzkill.
Are you going to say it or what?
He texted you not long
after he dropped a call.
What did he say?
Is he asking you out?
Is that even important?
It is.
If you're going to apologize,
just get it over with!
Three words, "I am sorry."
Why is it so hard for you to say that?
I think you're mistaken, Ms. Tsai.
I'm not apologizing to you.
What I meant to say is,
I...
I don't really care who you go out with.
I hope you didn't missend
that text message on purpose.
That would only give me the impression
that you're still not over me.
I don't have the time for your antics.
Is he really going to pick you up?
Yes, I'm going to meet him.
Where are you guys going?
That's none of your business, Mr. Hao.
You're kidding me.
She really does have a date.
Did you wait long?
-Not at all.
-I thought this is about the project.
Why are we meeting here
and not at your office?
Before we get to the project,
can't you just accompany me
for a friendly date?
Do you think this tie suits me?
Mr. Jiang.
Are you here to talk to me about work,
or are you expecting me
to go shopping with you?
What do you think?
I'm fine talking about work.
As for shopping with you,
I'm not interested in that.
I heard you're a good businesswoman.
When you start something,
you get all the deals that you want.
In fact,
Tsai Huan-chen,
l heard you will use
underhanded tactics to get your deals.
I heard the same about you too.
Ladies are just a call away for you
if you ever need someone
to go shopping with you.
I'm the partner
that you're hoping to work with.
Can't you put a little more effort
in getting me?
You're right.
To get a deal done,
no matter difficult
the customers are acting,
I'm willing to do
whatever it takes to please them.
With that said,
there are two types of person
that I'll never waste my time on.
What are those?
The first one
is a man who fools around with girls.
And the second one
is a man who has an ulterior motive.
Funnily enough,
you are both those.
This will do.
It suits you. It's flirtatious.
If you ever want to go shopping again,
find someone else.
Let's not waste each other's time.
You think I have an ulterior motive.
All right, what do you think that is?
You couldn't let go of the past.
You've been waiting for this opportunity
to make me beg you.
You wanted to take this chance
to make me regret my choices.
You're right.
All these years, I've been waiting
for the right opportunity.
But I didn't come here
to make you regret your choices,
I came here because I couldn't forget you.
Hao Meng!
This is my card.
My number is here.
If you wish to sue me
or you'd like to have another fight,
you're more than welcome to reach out.
Let go!
Let me go!
What are you doing?
I should be asking that question,
don't you think?
I'll drive you home.
We're here.
Are you mad at me?
Just say so if you are mad.
Could you say something?
Forget it.
Whatever makes you happy.
Don't you want to ask me
who that guy was and why did he kiss me?
Or do you think
that I'm an easy girl,
so it's not even necessary to ask?
Fine.
If you're not going to say it,
I'll say it for you.
You must think I'm a slut.
You think I easily agreed
to my ex-boyfriend's marriage proposal
just to run away on my own wedding.
You thought I dated you
just to get even with Hao Sheng-nan.
And now you think I'm trying to spite you
by going out with another man.
It's normal for a guy
to casually kiss a slut like me,
so you have no better to say, don't you?
That's how you think of me, right?
I never thought of that.
That's what you're thinking.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you,
and yet I don't know what to do.
After going through so many heartbreaks,
I told myself,
"I'll make sure the next one
will be better."
The one thing that I don't need in love
is my dignity.
Yet...
When I come face-to-face with you,
I can't seem to let my dignity go.
I care about what you think of me,
the way you would look at me.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
I don't want you to be the same as me.
I dislike myself, who loved so many times
and failed so many times.
No matter how much I want to hug you,
to tell you the truth
that I'm sorry.
I don't want you to be mad at me.
I like you.
I love you.
But in the end, I couldn't do it.
I'd rather lose to my ego.
I can't.
I won't allow it.
You don't love me.
Where have you been?
It's so late. I kept calling your phone,
but you wouldn't pick up.
I can't bear it.
Mom loves you. I can't bear it.
Mom loves you.
What?
You mean his name isn't Justin?
His name is Hao Meng?
That jerk.
How could he deceive Master Yue-e?
That guy is looking for trouble.
Sorry, I won't raise my voice again.
Okay.
Stop crying now.
I gave you such beautiful eyes after all.
People say that
if a girl wants to have a good life,
she can't keep on crying.
If you keep crying,
you'll drive your luck away.
It's true.
I'm not making that up.
Is that so?
So what's going to happen
between you and...
And...
-Hao Meng.
-That's right.
What's going to happen to the two of you?
I don't want to talk about him.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Sorry.
It's just...
You can tell if he's a good man
by looking at the lady who is with him.
If that lady
isn't happy or contented,
it's pointless no matter how good he is.
I'll tell you something.
Even though your dad look dumb and silly,
and he achieved nothing in life,
he has never made me cry
in the 30 years of our marriage.
Not even a single time.
Of course,
I know that you and...
Hao Meng.
Even though I know
you guys are a good match,
you're crying too much.
I think it's better if you let it go.
PLAYLIST: RECENTLY ADDED
MARRY ME OR NOT SOUNDTRACK
TSAO YOU-FANG
LOVE EQ
This is for you.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
Sorry to bother you, sir.
Come in.
I prepared it as you've requested.
And this darn kid claims
he's not personally involved with her.
Have you sent him the photographs?
Very well.
I'll send you the money tomorrow.
Bill please, mister.
Sorry.
You...
Are you looking at my bruise?
I was playing basketball
with my friends yesterday.
I accidentally got injured.
It's nothing.
Don't worry.
That's good.
Let me just brief you on the report.
I've made some changes to the plans.
First of all--
TSAI HUAN-CHEN
Sorry, I have to take a call.
Hello?
You're coming over?
I'm in the middle of a client meeting now.
It won't take long.
Sorry about that, please continue.
Was that Tsai Huan-chen?
Are you guys planning to meet later?
Sheng-nan.
Frankly speaking,
at this point,
I can't accept your proposal.
Right.
I get it.
Don't be sad.
It's not your fault this time.
-It's just that the plan--
-It's because of Tsai Huan-chen.
Isn't it, Chien-yao?
No matter how well I prepare the plan
or how much input I provide,
and even how soon
I submit my proposal to you,
it will still go to a waste.
The moment Tsai Huan-chen appears,
you go back to your old self.
You reject me.
Sheng-nan.
-Actually--
-No need to make an excuse.
I'm fine.
Besides, it doesn't matter anymore.
Sheng-nan.
Chien-yao.
I'm fine losing to Tsai Huan-chen.
I can accept that.
But there's something I must tell you.
If I don't say it now,
I may never have a chance again.
All these years,
I've always regretted one thing.
And that's because I wasn't able to
to tell you that I liked you.
I liked you
very much.
When you got together with Tsai Huan-chen,
I regretted my choice of not telling you
my feelings earlier.
Chien-yao, I liked you.
Before Tsai Huan-chen even liked you,
I had fallen for you.
I keep wondering
if I had worked harder
or if I was more beautiful,
perhaps you might have
liked me
too.
All these years,
I carried that regret with me.
I told myself
that if I ever see you again,
I'll never shy away.
I'll tell you
in your face,
that I,
Hao Sheng-nan,
once liked you.
I really liked
Jiang Chien-yao.
I think this is the last
and the best chance I'll ever get.
Thank you, Chien-yao.
I've said what I have to say.
Really, thank you.
Goodbye.
HSIN
Hello?
Sir.
It's me, Hsin. Where are you?
It's almost 12 p.m.
Why aren't you in the office?
Relax, I'm at home.
I'll be there soon.
Hello?
Have you seen the little gift
that I gave you?
Who is this?
Do you remember the words
that you said to me?
You said
that my greatest failure
is not losing everything,
but having no courage to let go.
Do you know what's your greatest failure?
It's not that you lost everything,
but you didn't have the courage to let go.
You're wrong.
It's not that I lacked courage.
I lost because I let the person
who caused this
make me feel powerless.
I will let you know
how it feels
to have your loved one taken away!
Hello?
Huan-chen, where are you?
Why are you asking that?
Just tell me where you are!
Hey!
Why are you getting mad?
I'm not mad at you.
Please just tell me where you are, okay?
I'm in the Times Corporation building.
-I'm heading to...
-Listen to me.
Someone is out to hurt you.
Now, I want you to...
Hello?
POLICE
Hao Meng.
You are?
I'm her lawyer.
I'm Hao Meng.
I'm Inspector Li,
this investigation team's leader.
Do you know this man?
He was the ex-husband of my client.
Two days ago,
a similar arson case happened.
The victim happened to be
the criminal's ex-wife,
Ms. Yang Mei-ling.
According to the witnesses at the scene,
the arsonist is him,
Chien Shao-tsung.
Just tell me where you are!
I'm in the Times Corporation building.
I'm heading to...
Even though the criminal has escaped,
luckily, Mr. Jiang appeared just in time.
Or the consequences will be unimaginable.
Don't mention it.
Mr. Hao.
According to our investigations,
Mr. Chien has no relations with Ms. Tsai.
but they know one person in common,
and that is you.
So you're saying
that Chien Shao-tsung attempted to harm
Tsai Huan-chen because of me?
We can't eliminate that possibility.
To clear things up,
I have to ask you,
what is your relationship with Ms. Tsai?
She's my client, and I'm her lawyer.
Also,
we're friends.
Just friends?
We have no special relationship.
Just friends.
Is there any misunderstanding about this?
Now that we've identified our target,
we'll apprehend him in no time.
If you know what his next moves are,
please do give us a call.
I understand, thank you.
Thank you for cooperating.
Are you all right?
Should I send you home?
Let me do it.
The criminal's target is you.
It would be even more dangerous
for Huan-chen if she stayed by your side.
Huan-chen.
Let's go.
Be careful.
It's obvious that you don't like Chien-yao
giving Tsai Huan-chen a ride.
Why did you pretend
as if it didn't affect you?
Are you heading back to your company?
I'll give you a lift.
Wait a minute.
Who is that Jiang?
He's my senior from the university.
So he's Tsai Huan-chen's senior?
That's right.
I'll be honest with you.
I had a falling out with Tsai Huan-chen
because of him.
Basically,
he's also Tsai Huan-chen's ex-boyfriend.
Ex-boyfriend?
If I'm not mistaken,
his relationship with her will change
from ex-boyfriend to boyfriend again.
What's that supposed to mean?
Our company is planning to collaborate
with Chien-yao's hotel.
In order to secure the deal,
I'm sure Tsai Huan-chen
will take advantage of his feelings.
And with what happened,
the timing is just right.
How could the two of them
not get back together?
Let's go.
Aren't you going to give me a lift?
Ex-boyfriend?
"The timing is just right."
We're here.
Go home and have some rest.
Don't think too much of it.
Tsai Huan-chen.
I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
I shouldn't have forced a kiss
on you yesterday.
It's my fault.
You don't have to apologize.
Why not?
Or were you never mad to begin with?
I only say that because I know
you're faking your apology.
I don't need it.
And I won't change the way I treat you.
So save your efforts, will you?
Goodbye.
You're really heartless.
I saved your life back there.
If you can't accept my apology,
you could at least thank me.
Jiang Chien-yao.
This isn't the first day
we've known each other.
You're not looking for gratitude.
Let's stop wasting each other's time
and get to the point.
What do you want from me?
It's simple.
I want you to promise one thing.
What is it?
It's about yesterday's matter.
I hope you'll forget it completely.
From today onward,
it's strictly work relationship
between us.
For this collaboration,
I didn't choose you over Hao Sheng-nan
because I had an ulterior motive.
It's only because I thought
that your proposal is better
for our company.
I hope you won't allow
your judgments of me
to affect our partnership.
Let's be professional.
The sooner we get
this collaboration going,
the sooner we can end it
and the sooner you can get rid of me.
-Jiang Chien-yao--
-You're a smart woman.
I think you know what to do.
Rest well.
Bringing you the latest news.
A shocking arson happened in Taipei City.
A girl by the name of Tsai
was attacked by an unknown man.
Dear!
Dear, come quickly!
Huan-huan is in trouble!
-The man doused Ms. Tsai
-What is it? Why are you so loud?
-with gas
-Look.
with the intention to set her on fire.
-A citizen acted bravely
-It's our Huan-huan!
-and stopped it in time.
-Huan-huan!
The crisis was averted.
Quick, call Huan-huan!
We should check on her. Call her!
Right, just a minute.
Call Huan-huan.
So?
"Calling Huan-huan."
-I'm back.
-Why is it taking so long?
-Huan-huan is back!
-Huan-huan!
-Let me have a look at you. Are you okay?
-Huan-huan.
-Let me have a look.
-Tell Dad.
-Why did that guy douse gas on you?
-Are you hurt? Yes.
-Why did that guy douse gas on you?
-Did he harm you anywhere?
-Are you hurt?
-Did it... Answer me, are you hurt?
What about the police?
-Did they catch him?
-Why do you need the police?
The point is,
-whoever hurt my daughter,
-The help of the police is important.
I will give him hell!
Get the police to catch him.
Why are you calling the police?
You have to catch the mastermind,
don't you understand?
-This is pointless!
-The whole truth...
Get the police!
-Go make a report!
-Are you done talking?
Report? A report has already been made!
-Get the police to come out!
-That's enough, both of you!
How did you get there?
It's pointless to argue over it.
Besides, I'm fine. It's over.
So don't worry, okay?
If you want to know the rest
of the details,
just watch the news.
I'm going back to my room.
Huan-huan.
-Hurry, watch the news.
-Watch the news.
-We'll just watch the news.
-Yes, watch the news.
The motive behind the attack
was not specified,
nor was
the criminal's background revealed.
But according to a reliable source,
the criminal most likely attacked Tsai
out of a love dispute.
Oh, no.
Dear.
Dear.
What's going on?
What's the matter with you?
Why did you run outside?
Why have the flowers fallen?
This is bad.
What's bad?
They've been together for too long.
They developed feelings for one another.
For the sake of helping the cactus,
the peach blossom tree
gave all of its life force to her.
It sacrificed itself.
Look.
Why does the cactus
have two pairs of hands?
It makes sense.
No wonder nothing has been going well
for Huan-huan lately.
There will not only be a disaster,
in fact,
her life might be in danger.
In danger?
Chien-yao.
We haven't played basketball
in a long time.
Are you free this coming weekend?
I am.
Whenever you like, I'll make time for you.
So,
you wanted to see me just for that?
I heard what happened
inside the building this afternoon.
Is Ms. Tsai all right?
She's fine.
It's all a misunderstanding.
Don't worry.
That's good.
Remember.
Ms. Tsai is an important partner
to the Times Corporation.
You must protect her at all cost.
Understood.
Speaking of that,
how's the progress of the collaboration
with Wufu Travel Agency?
I've done as per your request.
I've been in touch with Ms. Tsai.
So shouldn't we schedule
a lunch appointment with Ms. Tsai
to talk in detail
about our next partnership plans?
No problem.
Leave that to me.
I find
Ms. Tsai attractive.
Do you think I would have
a chance with her?
Shang-en,
Ms. Tsai
is my junior from the university.
-Could you not--
-Haven't I told you
that you have feelings for her?
Look at you. You never called me
by my name in the office.
You called me "Shang-en" for Ms. Tsai.
I can tell that she's important to you.
All right.
Relax.
I care about the people that you treasure.
I won't do a thing to her.
All right.
I've got to go, I have another meeting.
-Have a pleasant trip, Chairman.
-Yes.
Since Dad said
I can't lay my hands on you,
I'll lay my hands on your girl.
Let's see what you're going to do.
To clear things up,
I have to ask you,
what is your relationship with Ms. Tsai?
We're friends.
We have no special relationship.
Just friends.
Is there any misunderstanding about this?
Friends? You make it sound so simple.
Could you be...
Look.
He's adjusting the camera.
-He's looking for a blind spot.
-Is it not done yet? What's wrong?
That way, nobody would know
what he's up to.
You never lost to me.
You lost to Jiang Chien-yao, you know?
Do you know
what kind of person
the man of your dreams is?
If I'm willing to change for you,
would you give me a second chance
to prove
that I'm not who you think I am?
NEXT EPISODE
Are you ready?
Let's go.
Come any closer, and I'll scream!
Hao Meng!
I really hate the fact that I like you.
You make me feel not like myself.
And I
won't let myself continue being this way.
Then we should stop seeing each other.
Subtitle translation by Jason Emanuel Lee
Although it happened ten years ago,
would you still have pangs of regret
whenever you think of it?
You keep thinking about it.
You keep thinking about it.
"Would things have turned out better
if only I did things differently?"
BUSAN AIR
ECONOMY CLASS
Chien-yao.
Sheng-nan.
I'm not sure when I'll be back,
but I hope I'll see you again.
Okay.
Chien-yao!
Good luck to you!
"I like you" are three simple words.
Why was it so hard for me to say it?
After some time,
I finally had the answer to my question.
No matter how much I like someone,
I can't let go of my ego.
That's because I'm afraid.
I am afraid of rejection.
I am afraid of getting hurt.
I am afraid that my lack of confidence
will be seen by him.
Therefore,
to protect my integrity,
I chose to bid him farewell nonchalantly.
I pretended that I didn't care.
Chien-yao, I like you!
I really like you!
Many years have passed.
But I still find myself wondering,
"What if I told him my feelings?
Would things be different?"
Sheng-nan,
I'm counting on you
for the graduation trip.
Sure, Sir.
I'll be in touch with you next week
once I've finalized the details.
Bye-bye, sir.
Watch out!
Miss, are you all right?
Sheng-nan?
Chien-yao.
Hang in there.
Does it hurt?
Let me take a look.
A little.
It's swollen.
I'll take you to a doctor.
It's all right.
I'll be fine once I've taken a rest.
It's not as bad as it seems.
No, we should go.
-Let's go.
-Chien-yao
I'll be fine once I take a little rest.
-Just put me down.
-It's fine.
Why are you here?
The school director wanted to discuss
the graduation trip with me.
What about you?
My house is just nearby.
So I often come here to play basketball.
The same people meeting at the same place.
It feels like the old times.
I think you tend to get hit
by the balls I throw.
Let's go.
Longshiang Travel Agency wants to sue me
for embezzlement?
For 457 TWD?
We absolutely believe you.
We at Wufu Travel Agency
have the back of all of our employees.
We've even gotten you a legal counsel.
Hello, come here.
Justin!
Justin was my divorce lawyer.
Justin, this is
Assistant Manager Tsai Huan-chen.
Hello.
I'm your appointed lawyer.
Are you pretending not to know me?
What are you trying to pull?
Hello.
I'm Tsai Huan-chen.
Justin only deals with divorce cases.
He is the most reliable lawyer
that I've known.
I had to beg him
to take this case.
Is that so?
I owe you a huge favor
for finding such a great lawyer for me.
Excuse me.
I'd like to speak to Ms. Tsai in private
on the details of the dispute
between her and Longshiang Travel Agency.
All right, you guys discuss it.
Bye.
Thank you.
I've gone through your files.
I'd like to ask you a question, Ms. Tsai.
Do you recall the transaction flow
for the 457 TWD involved?
You knew I'm the accused.
Why did you agree to be my lawyer?
Please answer my questions.
Ms. Tsai.
Longshiang Travel Agency accused you
that on March 4th last year,
you received the group travel fees
made by Futai Communications.
At that time, they made some cash payment.
When you returned to the company,
the amount returned
versus the amount received
had a deficit of 457 TWD.
Do you think I took the 457 TWD?
Are you saying that
the opposition has an ulterior motive
for suing you?
What's the matter with him?
He said he wanted
to talk to me in private.
And here he is, talking about the case.
Is he really going to treat me
only as his client?
Please answer my questions, Ms. Tsai.
I have no idea.
But we are both
trying to get Times Corporation
for a collaboration.
So you're saying
they are trying to eliminate a competitor
by filing a suit against you?
Is there anyone else
who had the access to the money?
Do you remember the details?
Aside from me,
an accountant was also involved.
Is that all you would like to ask?
I'm giving you another chance.
If you apologize to me now,
saying that you're sorry,
I might just consider forgiving you.
Of course not.
I'd like to know
more about you.
Do you have any conflicts with
any employee in Longshiang Travel Agency?
This is very important, Ms. Tsai.
As your lawyer,
I need you to answer all the questions
in a truthful and honest manner.
I've always been a forgiving person.
I forgave two siblings who messed with me.
Do you think I have made any enemies?
All right.
I understand.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Is that all?
From now on,
I need you to stop answering all calls
from Longshiang Travel Agency.
Do not attempt to contact them in private.
Check your inboxes
and send all your work files to me.
And most importantly,
do not ignore my calls.
Even if you're in the toilet.
Noted.
Mr. Hao,
I'm begging you.
You must win this lawsuit.
I'm scared.
I will.
What are you guys eavesdropping on?
Huan-huan is being sued by Longshiang.
Sued?
Why is she getting sued?
Rumor has it that Huan-huan
is involved in an embezzlement.
We hired a lawyer
to help her with the case.
That's not the point.
The lawyer that was hired is...
Are you the lawyer?
Come with me.
I know everyone must be curious
about the situation.
Let me clarify one thing.
Mr. Hao
is my lawyer.
He is not my boyfriend.
And
he is Hao Sheng-nan's brother.
Biological brother.
Did Huan-huan just said
that the lawyer isn't her boyfriend,
but Sheng-nan's brother?
So he's not Sheng-nan's ex-boyfriend?
That's right.
How did he become her brother?
And if Huan-huan
said that lawyer isn't her boyfriend,
it means they have broken up.
Didn't Sheng-nan bawl her eyes out
because Huan-huan
was together with that lawyer?
The whole company thought
Huan-huan was the third party.
Jeez, what is going on?
It's so confusing.
I know!
Based on my 16 years of experience
of watching K-drama,
Sheng-nan
and that lawyer
must not be related by blood.
They're both in love with one another
but their relationship is opposed
by their parents.
So they had no choice but to separate.
After breaking up,
the lawyer got together with Huan-huan
but he still holds
Sheng-nan dearly in his heart.
Even though they have broken up,
it hurts for Sheng-nan
to watch the man she loves
getting together with Huan-huan.
Now that Huan-huan knows the truth,
she has decided to give them her blessings
and breaks up with the lawyer.
How is that possible?
This storyline is ridiculous.
-What do you know?
-What do you know?
What are you doing?
What were you thinking
by becoming Tsai Huan-chen's lawyer?
Are you guys on speaking terms?
Stop asking about me and Tsai Huan-chen.
So you guys aren't on speaking terms?
Did you guys
break up for good?
If you're planning on using me
to get back at her,
stop it.
She knows now that I'm your brother.
I know that.
Correct me if I'm wrong,
you told her the truth
to salvage the relationship, didn't you?
Yes.
But based on my years of knowing her,
after you told her the truth,
she got angrier.
No matter what explanations you gave,
she thought
that you and I are working together
to mess with her, right?
And in my years of knowing you,
despite only taking on divorce cases,
you willingly took on her case,
knowing that your actions
would be rebuffed.
That's not like you.
The only explanation
is that you've fallen in love with her.
And from what I know about you,
you'd probably tell me
not to fall for her, wouldn't you?
-Of course not.
-What?
On the contrary,
I'm here to offer you an advice.
Hao Meng.
If you really love someone,
don't put your ego ahead of your love.
I know that if you sincerely apologize
to Tsai Huan-chen,
she'll forgive you.
Are you telling me to reconcile with her?
As a sister,
I hope that you think things through.
Tell me the truth.
I want you to give it a good thought.
Stop overthinking for once.
That's all there is to it.
I'm going back to work now.
If Tsai Huan-chen gets back together
with Hao Meng
and be on good terms with me,
she won't snatch
Jiang Chien-yao away from me.
Besides, nothing good will come out
of their relationship.
Hao Meng won't marry her anyway.
They won't have any future.
Hao Sheng-nan, you are so smart.
This is what you call killing two birds
with one stone.
Please cancel my meeting
for tomorrow morning.
Schedule an appointment with
Hao Sheng-nan from Wufu Travel Agency.
Are you referring to Ms. Hao,
Assistant Manager from Wufu Travel Agency?
But sir, didn't Mr. Chin instruct us
to give the project
to Assistant Manager Tsai Huan-chen?
I'm well aware of that.
But don't worry,
I'll personally speak to Hao Sheng-nan.
All right, I've got to go.
Just do as I say.
Understood, sir.
You're stalking me?
You've been following me all day.
It must have been tiring for you.
DELETE
Who ordered you to follow me?
Tell me!
I'm just doing as I was told.
I don't know anything.
You're just doing your job, huh?
That's easy.
Don't worry.
I'll go easy on you.
I'll even let you follow me.
No matter how much that person
is paying you,
I'll pay you three times your paycheck.
-Three times my paycheck?
-But
the photos that will be taken by you
will be decided by me.
That's all I ask for.
Thank you.
Not again!
It's another empty gasoline can.
What is this?
Sir.
We received another suspicious package.
This is the third time this month.
What's the big deal?
Just have it recycled.
What's more important now
is the lawsuit against Tsai Huan-chen.
These...
These are the accounting statements
from Longshiang Travel Agency.
Those are only some of it.
There are two more boxes in my car.
Bring them up to me.
Two more boxes?
What's with the question?
-Get going.
-Right.
Oh, yes.
After you're done with that,
I want you to sift through
the past ten years of client database
that Longshiang Travel Agency has.
Ten years?
Isn't that too much?
Not at all.
I mean,
how much are you being paid for this?
Aren't we wasting too much time
on the case?
The return of investment for this is low.
Who is the boss now?
You're the boss.
I'll go get the boxes of files.
Good day, ladies and gentlemen.
Here's the latest news.
A 40-year-old woman named Yang from Taipei
caught fire after being doused
with flammable gas
by an unknown assailant.
She suffered burns on 42% of her body.
The victim is kept in the ICU
for observation.
She is still under intensive care.
Wasn't he pretending
like nothing happened?
I can't believe he's calling already.
Hello?
Hello, Ms. Tsai.
Yes.
How can I help you, Mr. Hao?
You'll be off in 30 minutes.
I'd like you to stop by my office
to discuss with you
the Longshiang Travel Agency case.
I can't. I've made plans.
I see.
How about tomorrow?
Tomorrow won't work too.
I've got an appointment with a client.
I've just taken a look at my schedule.
I'll be busy every night this week.
Ms. Tsai.
This case
will determine the fate of your job.
Could you set aside
your personal grudge for this?
You're mistaken, Mr. Hao.
I don't let my personal feelings
mix with my job.
I just happen to have something on.
Okay then, that's fine.
In that case, I propose meeting you
in your office tomorrow.
Thank you very much, Mr. Hao.
I hope it's not too much trouble for you.
I can't believe this lady.
I can't believe this guy.
NO FRIENDSHIP AFTER A BREAKUP
What time will you be picking me up
from home tonight?
Sorry, I sent it to the wrong person.
Please ignore that.
I'm done moving the boxes.
You're done?
Do you still need something?
If you're done, you can leave.
Really?
I'll drive you back.
I really underestimated you.
I deliberately sent that wrong message,
but you pretended as if nothing happened.
I've got to hand it to you.
Boss.
I thought you said
you were going to send me home?
You are home.
But my house isn't here.
Get out.
Are you playing a joke on me, sir?
I told you my house isn't here.
Get out.
Oh, Hsin.
You should know.
Not every boss is as kind as me.
Some of us won't find the time to
send our employees home, you know?
Get your car fixed.
Don't forget.
Call a taxi next time
and bill it to the company.
Okay, run along now.
Don't hit on ladies by the road.
Yes, sir.
Call me when you're home.
Mr. Hao.
Yes?
What brings you here?
I sent my assistant home.
I passed by your place.
Don't get the wrong idea though.
I didn't come here to see you.
Now that you're done, why don't you leave?
Don't linger around for too long.
You're an eyesore.
Are you afraid that your new friend
would see me with you?
Why do I feel like your tone has changed
since we met in the office?
-What do you mean changed?
-You were all formal and businesslike.
Why are you talking to me
as if you're my ex-boyfriend now?
-It's so weird.
-I just wanted to remind you that
you're facing a lawsuit
against Longshiang Travel Agency.
Choose who you are dating carefully.
Don't worry.
My new friend is very sincere.
You just met him.
How would you know that he's honest?
Unlike someone, he wouldn't use
an alias to date me.
He wouldn't get his sister to act like
his ex-girlfriend to fool me.
Sometimes I think a lawyer
is no different from a con man.
I'm really happy that you found
a new guy in such a short time.
But I've got to tell you this,
an honest and sincere guy
would never fall for a lady
with ulterior motives.
Mind your own business!
Let's make one thing very clear.
I dumped you.
Not the other way round.
Don't ever come knocking on my door
and bother me.
Yes. I came here to see you.
Why?
I came here to tell you
that I...
I...
I...
Your phone is ringing. Pick it up.
I'll pick it up when you're done talking.
-I can't talk when it's ringing!
-Just say it!
How am I supposed to say when it keeps
ringing? It's such a buzzkill.
Are you going to say it or what?
He texted you not long
after he dropped a call.
What did he say?
Is he asking you out?
Is that even important?
It is.
If you're going to apologize,
just get it over with!
Three words, "I am sorry."
Why is it so hard for you to say that?
I think you're mistaken, Ms. Tsai.
I'm not apologizing to you.
What I meant to say is,
I...
I don't really care who you go out with.
I hope you didn't missend
that text message on purpose.
That would only give me the impression
that you're still not over me.
I don't have the time for your antics.
Is he really going to pick you up?
Yes, I'm going to meet him.
Where are you guys going?
That's none of your business, Mr. Hao.
You're kidding me.
She really does have a date.
Did you wait long?
-Not at all.
-I thought this is about the project.
Why are we meeting here
and not at your office?
Before we get to the project,
can't you just accompany me
for a friendly date?
Do you think this tie suits me?
Mr. Jiang.
Are you here to talk to me about work,
or are you expecting me
to go shopping with you?
What do you think?
I'm fine talking about work.
As for shopping with you,
I'm not interested in that.
I heard you're a good businesswoman.
When you start something,
you get all the deals that you want.
In fact,
Tsai Huan-chen,
l heard you will use
underhanded tactics to get your deals.
I heard the same about you too.
Ladies are just a call away for you
if you ever need someone
to go shopping with you.
I'm the partner
that you're hoping to work with.
Can't you put a little more effort
in getting me?
You're right.
To get a deal done,
no matter difficult
the customers are acting,
I'm willing to do
whatever it takes to please them.
With that said,
there are two types of person
that I'll never waste my time on.
What are those?
The first one
is a man who fools around with girls.
And the second one
is a man who has an ulterior motive.
Funnily enough,
you are both those.
This will do.
It suits you. It's flirtatious.
If you ever want to go shopping again,
find someone else.
Let's not waste each other's time.
You think I have an ulterior motive.
All right, what do you think that is?
You couldn't let go of the past.
You've been waiting for this opportunity
to make me beg you.
You wanted to take this chance
to make me regret my choices.
You're right.
All these years, I've been waiting
for the right opportunity.
But I didn't come here
to make you regret your choices,
I came here because I couldn't forget you.
Hao Meng!
This is my card.
My number is here.
If you wish to sue me
or you'd like to have another fight,
you're more than welcome to reach out.
Let go!
Let me go!
What are you doing?
I should be asking that question,
don't you think?
I'll drive you home.
We're here.
Are you mad at me?
Just say so if you are mad.
Could you say something?
Forget it.
Whatever makes you happy.
Don't you want to ask me
who that guy was and why did he kiss me?
Or do you think
that I'm an easy girl,
so it's not even necessary to ask?
Fine.
If you're not going to say it,
I'll say it for you.
You must think I'm a slut.
You think I easily agreed
to my ex-boyfriend's marriage proposal
just to run away on my own wedding.
You thought I dated you
just to get even with Hao Sheng-nan.
And now you think I'm trying to spite you
by going out with another man.
It's normal for a guy
to casually kiss a slut like me,
so you have no better to say, don't you?
That's how you think of me, right?
I never thought of that.
That's what you're thinking.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you,
and yet I don't know what to do.
After going through so many heartbreaks,
I told myself,
"I'll make sure the next one
will be better."
The one thing that I don't need in love
is my dignity.
Yet...
When I come face-to-face with you,
I can't seem to let my dignity go.
I care about what you think of me,
the way you would look at me.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
I don't want you to be the same as me.
I dislike myself, who loved so many times
and failed so many times.
No matter how much I want to hug you,
to tell you the truth
that I'm sorry.
I don't want you to be mad at me.
I like you.
I love you.
But in the end, I couldn't do it.
I'd rather lose to my ego.
I can't.
I won't allow it.
You don't love me.
Where have you been?
It's so late. I kept calling your phone,
but you wouldn't pick up.
I can't bear it.
Mom loves you. I can't bear it.
Mom loves you.
What?
You mean his name isn't Justin?
His name is Hao Meng?
That jerk.
How could he deceive Master Yue-e?
That guy is looking for trouble.
Sorry, I won't raise my voice again.
Okay.
Stop crying now.
I gave you such beautiful eyes after all.
People say that
if a girl wants to have a good life,
she can't keep on crying.
If you keep crying,
you'll drive your luck away.
It's true.
I'm not making that up.
Is that so?
So what's going to happen
between you and...
And...
-Hao Meng.
-That's right.
What's going to happen to the two of you?
I don't want to talk about him.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Sorry.
It's just...
You can tell if he's a good man
by looking at the lady who is with him.
If that lady
isn't happy or contented,
it's pointless no matter how good he is.
I'll tell you something.
Even though your dad look dumb and silly,
and he achieved nothing in life,
he has never made me cry
in the 30 years of our marriage.
Not even a single time.
Of course,
I know that you and...
Hao Meng.
Even though I know
you guys are a good match,
you're crying too much.
I think it's better if you let it go.
PLAYLIST: RECENTLY ADDED
MARRY ME OR NOT SOUNDTRACK
TSAO YOU-FANG
LOVE EQ
This is for you.
When I saw someone kissing you,
I thought I was going to lose you.
I don't want to lose you.
Sorry to bother you, sir.
Come in.
I prepared it as you've requested.
And this darn kid claims
he's not personally involved with her.
Have you sent him the photographs?
Very well.
I'll send you the money tomorrow.
Bill please, mister.
Sorry.
You...
Are you looking at my bruise?
I was playing basketball
with my friends yesterday.
I accidentally got injured.
It's nothing.
Don't worry.
That's good.
Let me just brief you on the report.
I've made some changes to the plans.
First of all--
TSAI HUAN-CHEN
Sorry, I have to take a call.
Hello?
You're coming over?
I'm in the middle of a client meeting now.
It won't take long.
Sorry about that, please continue.
Was that Tsai Huan-chen?
Are you guys planning to meet later?
Sheng-nan.
Frankly speaking,
at this point,
I can't accept your proposal.
Right.
I get it.
Don't be sad.
It's not your fault this time.
-It's just that the plan--
-It's because of Tsai Huan-chen.
Isn't it, Chien-yao?
No matter how well I prepare the plan
or how much input I provide,
and even how soon
I submit my proposal to you,
it will still go to a waste.
The moment Tsai Huan-chen appears,
you go back to your old self.
You reject me.
Sheng-nan.
-Actually--
-No need to make an excuse.
I'm fine.
Besides, it doesn't matter anymore.
Sheng-nan.
Chien-yao.
I'm fine losing to Tsai Huan-chen.
I can accept that.
But there's something I must tell you.
If I don't say it now,
I may never have a chance again.
All these years,
I've always regretted one thing.
And that's because I wasn't able to
to tell you that I liked you.
I liked you
very much.
When you got together with Tsai Huan-chen,
I regretted my choice of not telling you
my feelings earlier.
Chien-yao, I liked you.
Before Tsai Huan-chen even liked you,
I had fallen for you.
I keep wondering
if I had worked harder
or if I was more beautiful,
perhaps you might have
liked me
too.
All these years,
I carried that regret with me.
I told myself
that if I ever see you again,
I'll never shy away.
I'll tell you
in your face,
that I,
Hao Sheng-nan,
once liked you.
I really liked
Jiang Chien-yao.
I think this is the last
and the best chance I'll ever get.
Thank you, Chien-yao.
I've said what I have to say.
Really, thank you.
Goodbye.
HSIN
Hello?
Sir.
It's me, Hsin. Where are you?
It's almost 12 p.m.
Why aren't you in the office?
Relax, I'm at home.
I'll be there soon.
Hello?
Have you seen the little gift
that I gave you?
Who is this?
Do you remember the words
that you said to me?
You said
that my greatest failure
is not losing everything,
but having no courage to let go.
Do you know what's your greatest failure?
It's not that you lost everything,
but you didn't have the courage to let go.
You're wrong.
It's not that I lacked courage.
I lost because I let the person
who caused this
make me feel powerless.
I will let you know
how it feels
to have your loved one taken away!
Hello?
Huan-chen, where are you?
Why are you asking that?
Just tell me where you are!
Hey!
Why are you getting mad?
I'm not mad at you.
Please just tell me where you are, okay?
I'm in the Times Corporation building.
-I'm heading to...
-Listen to me.
Someone is out to hurt you.
Now, I want you to...
Hello?
POLICE
Hao Meng.
You are?
I'm her lawyer.
I'm Hao Meng.
I'm Inspector Li,
this investigation team's leader.
Do you know this man?
He was the ex-husband of my client.
Two days ago,
a similar arson case happened.
The victim happened to be
the criminal's ex-wife,
Ms. Yang Mei-ling.
According to the witnesses at the scene,
the arsonist is him,
Chien Shao-tsung.
Just tell me where you are!
I'm in the Times Corporation building.
I'm heading to...
Even though the criminal has escaped,
luckily, Mr. Jiang appeared just in time.
Or the consequences will be unimaginable.
Don't mention it.
Mr. Hao.
According to our investigations,
Mr. Chien has no relations with Ms. Tsai.
but they know one person in common,
and that is you.
So you're saying
that Chien Shao-tsung attempted to harm
Tsai Huan-chen because of me?
We can't eliminate that possibility.
To clear things up,
I have to ask you,
what is your relationship with Ms. Tsai?
She's my client, and I'm her lawyer.
Also,
we're friends.
Just friends?
We have no special relationship.
Just friends.
Is there any misunderstanding about this?
Now that we've identified our target,
we'll apprehend him in no time.
If you know what his next moves are,
please do give us a call.
I understand, thank you.
Thank you for cooperating.
Are you all right?
Should I send you home?
Let me do it.
The criminal's target is you.
It would be even more dangerous
for Huan-chen if she stayed by your side.
Huan-chen.
Let's go.
Be careful.
It's obvious that you don't like Chien-yao
giving Tsai Huan-chen a ride.
Why did you pretend
as if it didn't affect you?
Are you heading back to your company?
I'll give you a lift.
Wait a minute.
Who is that Jiang?
He's my senior from the university.
So he's Tsai Huan-chen's senior?
That's right.
I'll be honest with you.
I had a falling out with Tsai Huan-chen
because of him.
Basically,
he's also Tsai Huan-chen's ex-boyfriend.
Ex-boyfriend?
If I'm not mistaken,
his relationship with her will change
from ex-boyfriend to boyfriend again.
What's that supposed to mean?
Our company is planning to collaborate
with Chien-yao's hotel.
In order to secure the deal,
I'm sure Tsai Huan-chen
will take advantage of his feelings.
And with what happened,
the timing is just right.
How could the two of them
not get back together?
Let's go.
Aren't you going to give me a lift?
Ex-boyfriend?
"The timing is just right."
We're here.
Go home and have some rest.
Don't think too much of it.
Tsai Huan-chen.
I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
I shouldn't have forced a kiss
on you yesterday.
It's my fault.
You don't have to apologize.
Why not?
Or were you never mad to begin with?
I only say that because I know
you're faking your apology.
I don't need it.
And I won't change the way I treat you.
So save your efforts, will you?
Goodbye.
You're really heartless.
I saved your life back there.
If you can't accept my apology,
you could at least thank me.
Jiang Chien-yao.
This isn't the first day
we've known each other.
You're not looking for gratitude.
Let's stop wasting each other's time
and get to the point.
What do you want from me?
It's simple.
I want you to promise one thing.
What is it?
It's about yesterday's matter.
I hope you'll forget it completely.
From today onward,
it's strictly work relationship
between us.
For this collaboration,
I didn't choose you over Hao Sheng-nan
because I had an ulterior motive.
It's only because I thought
that your proposal is better
for our company.
I hope you won't allow
your judgments of me
to affect our partnership.
Let's be professional.
The sooner we get
this collaboration going,
the sooner we can end it
and the sooner you can get rid of me.
-Jiang Chien-yao--
-You're a smart woman.
I think you know what to do.
Rest well.
Bringing you the latest news.
A shocking arson happened in Taipei City.
A girl by the name of Tsai
was attacked by an unknown man.
Dear!
Dear, come quickly!
Huan-huan is in trouble!
-The man doused Ms. Tsai
-What is it? Why are you so loud?
-with gas
-Look.
with the intention to set her on fire.
-A citizen acted bravely
-It's our Huan-huan!
-and stopped it in time.
-Huan-huan!
The crisis was averted.
Quick, call Huan-huan!
We should check on her. Call her!
Right, just a minute.
Call Huan-huan.
So?
"Calling Huan-huan."
-I'm back.
-Why is it taking so long?
-Huan-huan is back!
-Huan-huan!
-Let me have a look at you. Are you okay?
-Huan-huan.
-Let me have a look.
-Tell Dad.
-Why did that guy douse gas on you?
-Are you hurt? Yes.
-Why did that guy douse gas on you?
-Did he harm you anywhere?
-Are you hurt?
-Did it... Answer me, are you hurt?
What about the police?
-Did they catch him?
-Why do you need the police?
The point is,
-whoever hurt my daughter,
-The help of the police is important.
I will give him hell!
Get the police to catch him.
Why are you calling the police?
You have to catch the mastermind,
don't you understand?
-This is pointless!
-The whole truth...
Get the police!
-Go make a report!
-Are you done talking?
Report? A report has already been made!
-Get the police to come out!
-That's enough, both of you!
How did you get there?
It's pointless to argue over it.
Besides, I'm fine. It's over.
So don't worry, okay?
If you want to know the rest
of the details,
just watch the news.
I'm going back to my room.
Huan-huan.
-Hurry, watch the news.
-Watch the news.
-We'll just watch the news.
-Yes, watch the news.
The motive behind the attack
was not specified,
nor was
the criminal's background revealed.
But according to a reliable source,
the criminal most likely attacked Tsai
out of a love dispute.
Oh, no.
Dear.
Dear.
What's going on?
What's the matter with you?
Why did you run outside?
Why have the flowers fallen?
This is bad.
What's bad?
They've been together for too long.
They developed feelings for one another.
For the sake of helping the cactus,
the peach blossom tree
gave all of its life force to her.
It sacrificed itself.
Look.
Why does the cactus
have two pairs of hands?
It makes sense.
No wonder nothing has been going well
for Huan-huan lately.
There will not only be a disaster,
in fact,
her life might be in danger.
In danger?
Chien-yao.
We haven't played basketball
in a long time.
Are you free this coming weekend?
I am.
Whenever you like, I'll make time for you.
So,
you wanted to see me just for that?
I heard what happened
inside the building this afternoon.
Is Ms. Tsai all right?
She's fine.
It's all a misunderstanding.
Don't worry.
That's good.
Remember.
Ms. Tsai is an important partner
to the Times Corporation.
You must protect her at all cost.
Understood.
Speaking of that,
how's the progress of the collaboration
with Wufu Travel Agency?
I've done as per your request.
I've been in touch with Ms. Tsai.
So shouldn't we schedule
a lunch appointment with Ms. Tsai
to talk in detail
about our next partnership plans?
No problem.
Leave that to me.
I find
Ms. Tsai attractive.
Do you think I would have
a chance with her?
Shang-en,
Ms. Tsai
is my junior from the university.
-Could you not--
-Haven't I told you
that you have feelings for her?
Look at you. You never called me
by my name in the office.
You called me "Shang-en" for Ms. Tsai.
I can tell that she's important to you.
All right.
Relax.
I care about the people that you treasure.
I won't do a thing to her.
All right.
I've got to go, I have another meeting.
-Have a pleasant trip, Chairman.
-Yes.
Since Dad said
I can't lay my hands on you,
I'll lay my hands on your girl.
Let's see what you're going to do.
To clear things up,
I have to ask you,
what is your relationship with Ms. Tsai?
We're friends.
We have no special relationship.
Just friends.
Is there any misunderstanding about this?
Friends? You make it sound so simple.
Could you be...
Look.
He's adjusting the camera.
-He's looking for a blind spot.
-Is it not done yet? What's wrong?
That way, nobody would know
what he's up to.
You never lost to me.
You lost to Jiang Chien-yao, you know?
Do you know
what kind of person
the man of your dreams is?
If I'm willing to change for you,
would you give me a second chance
to prove
that I'm not who you think I am?
NEXT EPISODE
Are you ready?
Let's go.
Come any closer, and I'll scream!
Hao Meng!
I really hate the fact that I like you.
You make me feel not like myself.
And I
won't let myself continue being this way.
Then we should stop seeing each other.
