Office Girls (2011–…): Season 1, Episode 29 - Episode #1.29 - full transcript
You're taking her stuff to the hotel?
Is that necessary?
Fine, then I'll head back home by myself.
You take care.
Mr. Shi, Qin Zi Qi called.
I heard.
It's only right that he delivers
her stuff, she spent so much money.
Although it's odd that he should deliver
her stuff all the way to the hotel room.
Could they really have
a cougar/cub relationship?
You never know.
That's so hot!
Don't worry, you call Lele right now,
and ask her to go to the movies with me,
and I'll use my authority as his boss
to order him back to the office.
What do you say?
That's all right, Mr. Shi.
I don't believe Qin Zi Qi
would mess around on me.
You have no idea.
All my male friends,
they don't usually mess around,
but when they do, they go all out!
Others' misery brings me so much joy!
Put the bags here, cutie pie.
Thanks for helping me out today.
Come here and give me a hug! Come on!
Yes, that's the smell. You smell so good!
Enough already, Mom.
You don't want your mom's hug?
When did you get back?
Why didn't you tell me?
You love surprises, right?
Let me take a look at you.
You're so handsome. Even more so now.
Why are you so cute?
Whose son are you? Huh?
What do you think?
Mine, of course.
But you look tired, Jason.
Your dad is an old fool for
making you start at the bottom.
"Train you?" Ha!
A prince like you shouldn't become
an errand boy.
You shouldn't be bossed around
by those random people.
Qin Mu Bai has lost his marbles.
How did you know?
I heard it from your Auntie Feng.
She was super nervous
when she heard I was coming back.
She kept begging me
not to reveal your identity at work.
That's how I found out
your agreement with your dad.
Son, he shouldn't treat you this way.
It's fine. If he wants to play,
I'm all game.
I won't lose, anyway.
"Play"? I got so worried.
I only have one precious boy.
I won't let him torture you.
I'll stand up for you
and tell him to back off.
Mom, that's not necessary.
I'm fine working at Operations now.
I was kind of mad at first,
but then I realized,
he's got his reasons.
So I just went to work.
I'm used to it now.
I won't allow you to defend that man.
Come, tell me. It's been such a long time,
do you miss me?
A little.
Look at me. Do you miss me?
Yes.
That's more like it.
I'll take you to a nice restaurant.
Then I'll buy you some new clothes.
Who did your laundry?
It's got pilling.
Why are you still wearing it?
Let me take you shopping.
Mom, I've got enough clothes.
Son, remember,
clothes aren't meant to be worn.
They're meant to be seen.
The son of Ye Hua should be dressed
like a prince.
Come on, let's go.
Shen Xing Ren,
you're playing housewife again?
Where's Qin Zi Qi?
He went to deliver
the rich lady's purchases.
I am not sure.
You mean the VIP shopper?
I wish I could be like her,
as if money doesn't matter.
She spent thousands in one day.
But why would Shi Te Long
send Qin Zi Qi to take care of her?
He might scare her away.
I don't know.
She specifically asked for Qin Zi Qi.
Yeah, right. I don't believe it.
You better watch out
and keep an eye on him.
Watch out for what?
When Zheng Kai Er steals him away,
it'll be too late to cry.
It's never too late to cry.
Anyway, you'll be sorry.
Ms. Zheng, you're only
wearing one earring today.
That's so usual.
It's actually a pair.
I love these earrings.
I don't know when I lost the other one.
Is this a new earring?
My ears aren't pierced.
Then whose is it?
No way, Qin Zi Qi just started
going out with you,
and he's already cheating?
I'll rip him a new one
when he comes back.
Qin Zi Qi, open up!
Open up, now!
What's the matter?
I'm checking to see
if you're hiding a vixen.
What vixen?
Whose is this?
How should I know?
You're lying.
Why are you asking me this?
This was in your jacket pocket.
If you don't know, how should we know?
No way, I don't know where it came from.
Qin Zi Qi, you're so shameless.
How dare you deny cheating?
The evidence is right here.
Liu Yu Le, please calm down.
I have no idea whose it is.
You ungrateful, dirty creep! How dare you?
Lele, calm down.
If you make Xing Ren sad again,
you're dead meat!
Here.
I don't know where it came from.
You don't believe me?
I never said that.
If you said so, then I believe you.
You bought luxury brand clothes?
It's from the outlet.
This brand has outlet stores?
I won the lottery today.
I was inspired today,
and I wrote down some numbers.
Fine, it's from that rich lady.
She bought me new clothes
because she liked me.
I said no, but she insisted.
She insisted on buying you clothes?
These are crazy expensive
and she just gave them to you?
She was in a good mood.
You saw the way she spent money.
Who would buy so much stuff
for a random department store employee?
That's really strange.
These are really from her,
I'm not lying.
Qin Zi Qi, do you remember what I said,
about the most important thing
when two people are together?
Honesty.
Xing Ren, don't waste your breath on him.
Come up!
Come in.
Ms. Zheng.
Xing Ren, what is it?
Does this earring belong to you?
Why do you have my earring?
I found it in Zi Qi's jacket pocket.
I vaguely remember you wearing it,
so I thought I'd return it to you.
I know, it was from that night when
he came back to work, and it got cold.
So I borrowed his jacket.
I must have lost it then.
I see.
Xing Ren,
please don't read too much into this.
There's nothing between us.
If you're upset, I'm really sorry.
Please don't apologize, Ms. Zheng.
It's fine.
Really?
Yes.
All right, let's have lunch together.
Ms. Zheng, I have a meeting with
the lip gloss vendor. I should get going.
- Bad boy.
- Yes?
Well, how did it go yesterday?
Were you happy delivering the rich lady's
purchases to her hotel room?
Super happy.
Happy?
How come I never get
awesome gigs like that?
I'm also inexplicably handsome.
Well, did she give you anything?
I want to see.
Yes, come here.
It's for me to know.
Why?
I see you as one of my own.
I always tell you my secrets.
I never asked to know your secrets.
Fine, Mr. Specialist.
Now that you're popular,
you shop with the rich lady,
while I listen to your old lady complain.
Don't you know how worried Shen Xing Ren
was about you yesterday?
I defended you.
Is this how you repay me?
Of course, keep all goodies to thyself.
Stop it, you're an animal!
Please kill me now and get it over with.
That sounds oddly familiar...
Punk, now that you've bagged
that sugar mama,
you will go far and get many goodies.
Don't forget me,
I've looked out for you.
Will you stop making everything
about money?
If money can solve it,
it's not a problem.
But no money is a big problem.
Yes, money is life.
We live and die by and for money.
It powers us.
- Right.
- Mr. Shi!
That rich lady is here again.
- She's here again?
- Yes.
The rich lady has come again. I'm ready.
Let's go!
Mr. Shi!
Dismissed.
Mr. Chairman, here is this year's
anniversary sale results,
including comparison with last year
and the year before last,
as well as an analysis
on primary customer groups.
Long time no see.
Qin Mu Bai, what's the meaning
of sending your son to Operations
and making him a lowly specialist?
With his experience, what else can he do?
He's your only son.
He should be taking over the chairmanship.
If you want to train him,
you should still put him
in a better position.
Right now, you're making him
an errand boy of sorts.
It's practically torture.
Running a corporation is no game.
Without skills from actual experience,
how can he run a publicly traded company?
I only made him train
from the bottom for a year.
A year? It's only been a few months.
Have you seen him?
He's my son, now he's pathetic-looking.
Also, the apartment you found him
is terrible!
I'll never put up with your nonsense!
I only made him work from the bottom up.
I just want my only son
to have a life-changing experience.
As for you, you showered him
with luxury cars, watches,
and way too much money,
yet you wouldn't come to see him
and see what he was actually doing.
As Zi Qi's mother,
your behavior is more like nonsense.
What's wrong with spoiling my son?
I don't care about your agreement.
None of it matters.
Name Zi Qi as the general manager
right this minute.
That's impossible.
Unless he passes the test
and proves he is capable
of taking over Jing Shi.
He's your son.
If he's not capable, who is?
Jing Shi doesn't have
to pass down to anyone.
If he lacks the experience and ability,
I will hire a professional executive,
or I'll stay on as the chairman.
Qin Mu Bai!
This is the duty of a corporate manager.
As the chairman,
I'm responsible for the welfare
of all of my employees.
I also have to consider
investors' perception.
We've been divorced for 20 years.
You only wanted money,
you even gave up custody over Zi Qi.
What right do you have to interfere
with the way I teach my son?
Because I gave birth to him,
and I'm his mother.
Qin Mu Bai, don't you forget
how many shares of Jing Shi's stocks
are in my hands.
Fine, don't listen to me now.
I've got ways of making you.
If you expose Zi Qi's identity,
you're forcing me to reveal
skeletons in the closet,
expose the scandal behind our divorce.
You can spend money like water,
because you're Jing Shi's
major stockholder,
and a beneficiary
with no contribution to make.
If you're ready to be
publicly humiliated,
and see the stock price suffer,
or you don't care
if your assets evaporate,
then do as you wish.
Mr. Zhang, are you here?
I'm waiting at the VIP lounge entrance.
See you later.
Mr. Chairman.
Ms. Feng just informed me,
"I want everything but those three" lady,
also known as the most arrogant, cocky,
ferocious, ruthless customer
Jing Shi Department Store has ever seen,
has graced us with her presence again.
For the VIP who swipes her credit card
more often than she brushes her teeth...
I will apply the ultimate
leadership principle,
which is I'll do anything for money,
and offer her six-star service.
I want all of her money
to be spent here.
Understand?
Yes, sir.
Punk, you usually have a comeback
for everything I say.
Why are you so quiet today?
Look at you, so disheveled.
Listen up,
"I want everything but those three" lady
not only specifically asked for you,
she even paid to take you out.
You can't have your cake and eat it, too.
Don't scare off other rich shoppers.
I know you're poorer than a church mouse.
Now that you've met a sugar mama,
if you don't kiss up to her,
you might never make it in this world.
I don't need to kiss up to her to make it.
Ma'am. How are you?
Bow, everyone.
Ma'am.
You don't seem too happy.
Worry not,
shopping is the best cure for everything.
You'll be happy once you start shopping.
Mr. Shi, if you can't disappear
from my view,
then at least put it on mute.
That would make me happier.
Mr. Qin, please keep me company today
while I shop.
Mr. Shi, you won't disagree, right?
I'm allowed to speak now?
Of course, he's all yours.
You want him to dance or sing?
Anything you want, it's yours.
Let's go.
Please, ma'am.
Go!
Go after them, Lu Cha!
When she cashes out,
get it done fast!
Yes, sir.
Ms. Mandy, you tag along.
Tell everyone, if she visits a shop,
she's got exclusive shopping rights.
You see? Money makes the world go round.
Your Qin Zi Qi is a handsome sweet-talker.
He's the type all cougars in Asia love.
If you don't have the sense to be nervous,
I think it's only a matter of time
before he ditches you.
Mr. Shi, I have faith in Qin Zi Qi.
He's nothing like you.
What do you think?
Your dad is doing it to annoy me.
Mom, you don't see things the same way.
This time,
Dad's decision might be best.
What's the matter with you?
You've spent too much time with minions,
and lost your sense of pride?
Goodness gracious!
How much does he pay you?
A grand. I just got promoted
so I got a $93 raise.
A grand?
That's two meals' worth of money.
How can you live on that?
No, I must talk to him.
It's not necessary, Mom.
I realized I have a lot to learn.
You can't run a company
like Jing Shi Department Store
simply with an MBA degree.
Making Jing Shi successful
isn't as easy as I thought.
Also, I'm curious how much effort
Dad had to put in
to start this company.
It's not hard at all. You just go for it.
I support you.
I'll get your dad to promote you
to general manager next month.
There's just a few more days left.
Don't you have faith in me?
I'm telling you, a year goes by fast.
I want to prove myself,
show him I'm worthy.
A year?
You're already looking like a valet boy.
I can't stand it for another minute.
You just forget about
the agreement you made with your dad.
If he gives you a hard time,
I'll call a board meeting and scold him.
Mom, I have to honor my promise.
It's a deal made man-to-man.
I'm not a child anymore.
I hope you can respect my decision.
Also, please be
more low-key in the future.
If people find out about us,
they might get the wrong idea.
Fine, low-key.
You can be low-key with me
while I shop.
Come on, let's go.
Is this being low-key?
I can still be a big shopper
while being low-key.
The way you shop,
they'll find out eventually.
I am who I am.
Come on.
Min Min.
Ms. Zheng.
We're going to issue
a personalized gold card
to the VIP customer Mr. Qin was with.
Let me see her credit card slip
to check her spending.
Just a moment, please.
That lady is a crazy shopper.
I heard she spent 31 grand
at a watch shop.
YE HUA
MOTHER - YE HUA
Come inside, hurry.
Cutie, thanks for your help today.
Here, this is for you.
I'm sorry, it's against company policy
to accept tips.
Who cares about company policy?
You can't live on the salary
your dad gives you.
This is my secondary credit card.
It has no credit limit.
Buy whatever you want, I'll pay for it.
If you had given me this card
a few months ago,
I'd have accepted it right away.
But now--
What is it?
I can make my own money.
It's not much, but it's enough to live on.
Money is not meant to be spent,
it's meant to be lavished.
Anyway, just keep the card.
Buy whatever you want with it.
Listen, don't get brainwashed by your dad.
You're my little prince. It's only right
that I should care for you.
I've thought it through. If your dad
won't let you be general manager,
I'll sign over my Jing Shi stock to you.
You can become a board member right away.
That's not necessary.
Listen, your dad worked really hard
to start this company
when he was young.
His poor person mentality
is ingrained in him.
He doesn't know how to enjoy life.
You can't live like that anymore.
The future is yours. You must know
how to make money and spend money.
I have faith in you.
You are the future of Jing Shi.
Excuse me, ma'am.
Mr. Qin has a meeting this afternoon
with our vendor.
Mr. Shi asked me to come get him.
Why? I want Mr. Qin to keep me company.
Tell your manager he's staying here.
Ma'am, I'm sorry,
this afternoon's meeting
is very important.
Mr. Qin is the person
in charge of this project.
Maybe you can wait until we're done.
That's your problem.
Or get your manager to come see me.
Ma'am, excuse me.
Let me talk to Ms. Shen.
My files are on my computer.
Get them.
I'll be right over when I'm done.
Qin Zi Qi.
What is it?
Do you know this customer from before?
I served her last time.
Go get my stuff ready, I'll be there.
Ma'am, please let me go back to work.
It's my job.
Why would you hire a bunch of people
but don't let them work?
Get that dowdy girl
to attend your meeting for you.
Her name is Shen Xing Ren,
my boss.
She's your boss?
As in your supervisor?
- You have to report to her?
- That's right.
She's just a dowdy girl.
How can she be your boss?
I think she's wonderful.
People with poor taste
shouldn't be in charge.
Why are you defending her?
Who is she to you?
She's my girlfriend.
Zi Qi, you must think
I have no sense of humor.
If I don't laugh at this joke,
you'd be mad at me.
You, the heir of a huge corporation,
and a homely girl like that?
That's hilarious!
No joke, she is my girlfriend.
And I like her very much.
I'm going back to work.
Thank you for choosing Jing Shi.
I'll arrange delivery for your purchases.
I look forward to serving you again.
Thank you.
Lele, I think Qin Zi Qi's relationship
to that VIP lady
seems a little odd.
What's so odd about it?
Qin Zi Qi is dirt poor.
How would he know that VIP customer?
I just get this feeling
they already know each other.
But when I asked him about it,
he kept joking around.
He didn't answer my question.
That's odd.
Is it?
Don't listen to Mr. Shi
and his senseless talk.
Qin Zi Qi doesn't seem
like the Oedipus complex type.
I'm not worried about that.
What is it then?
I get the feeling
that he's keeping something from me.
He's hiding something.
He's hiding something?
So you think he's lying to you?
It's just a gut feeling.
Really?
Xing Ren,
your gut feeling has got to be right.
Why?
You're super laid-back,
if you think something's off,
then it's got to be true.
You want me to interrogate him?
No.
What if it's nothing,
and we're just being silly?
Maybe it's nothing at all.
Maybe I'm just being silly.
No, it obviously bothers you enough
for you to tell me about it.
Why force yourself to defend him?
Xing Ren! Lele!
- Ms. Zheng.
- Ms. Zheng.
Operations has been working hard.
Is it going well?
Very well, all the shops spent
a lot of effort decorating.
It's hard to score them.
By the way, will you attend
the vendor meeting this afternoon?
Yes, I'll be there.
If you need Leasing's help,
do say so in the meeting.
I'll support you for sure.
All right, I should get going.
Aren't Zheng Kai Er's earrings the same as
the one you found in Qin Zi Qi's pocket?
Yeah, they look so similar.
Not similar, they're one and the same!
That slimy creep!
I can't believe he'd go back to her.
Lele, don't get so worked up.
It's a misunderstanding.
Ms. Zheng already explained
to me. It's fine.
Xing Ren, are you gullible or foolish?
Honestly!
Lele!
Lele! Liu Yu Le!
Don't be mad.
Ms. Zheng already explained it to me.
It's not a big deal.
Don't blow up like that, all right?
Xing Ren, please open your eyes.
My eyes are open.
Zheng Kai Er has her mind
set on Qin Zi Qi.
Anyone can see it.
Aren't you worried
she might steal your boyfriend?
If she can steal him, then he's not mine.
I really believe they're just friends.
It's no big deal. Quit overreacting.
I'm not overreacting.
The evidence is right in front of you.
Why are you lying to yourself?
Excuse me, do you use C-Shop's lotion?
You know this brand?
I didn't know it was popular here.
I love its scent.
It's unique and has healing properties.
That's right. That's why I love it.
Oh no!
What is it?
Mine is all gone.
I forgot to get it
while I was shopping at Jing Shi earlier.
My memory is terrible now that I'm old.
You look so young.
You can't be that old.
I'm not young, my son is 27 years old.
Really? You look amazing.
You're in such great shape.
Is it because you do yoga?
It sure has something to do with it.
I've invested a lot of effort
into maintaining my looks.
I've only just started doing yoga.
May I ask for your help
if I have questions in the future?
I've been doing yoga for ages.
I'm happy to help out.
We should do yoga together.
Sure.
Excuse me, I have to take this call.
Go ahead.
Is that necessary?
Fine, then I'll head back home by myself.
You take care.
Mr. Shi, Qin Zi Qi called.
I heard.
It's only right that he delivers
her stuff, she spent so much money.
Although it's odd that he should deliver
her stuff all the way to the hotel room.
Could they really have
a cougar/cub relationship?
You never know.
That's so hot!
Don't worry, you call Lele right now,
and ask her to go to the movies with me,
and I'll use my authority as his boss
to order him back to the office.
What do you say?
That's all right, Mr. Shi.
I don't believe Qin Zi Qi
would mess around on me.
You have no idea.
All my male friends,
they don't usually mess around,
but when they do, they go all out!
Others' misery brings me so much joy!
Put the bags here, cutie pie.
Thanks for helping me out today.
Come here and give me a hug! Come on!
Yes, that's the smell. You smell so good!
Enough already, Mom.
You don't want your mom's hug?
When did you get back?
Why didn't you tell me?
You love surprises, right?
Let me take a look at you.
You're so handsome. Even more so now.
Why are you so cute?
Whose son are you? Huh?
What do you think?
Mine, of course.
But you look tired, Jason.
Your dad is an old fool for
making you start at the bottom.
"Train you?" Ha!
A prince like you shouldn't become
an errand boy.
You shouldn't be bossed around
by those random people.
Qin Mu Bai has lost his marbles.
How did you know?
I heard it from your Auntie Feng.
She was super nervous
when she heard I was coming back.
She kept begging me
not to reveal your identity at work.
That's how I found out
your agreement with your dad.
Son, he shouldn't treat you this way.
It's fine. If he wants to play,
I'm all game.
I won't lose, anyway.
"Play"? I got so worried.
I only have one precious boy.
I won't let him torture you.
I'll stand up for you
and tell him to back off.
Mom, that's not necessary.
I'm fine working at Operations now.
I was kind of mad at first,
but then I realized,
he's got his reasons.
So I just went to work.
I'm used to it now.
I won't allow you to defend that man.
Come, tell me. It's been such a long time,
do you miss me?
A little.
Look at me. Do you miss me?
Yes.
That's more like it.
I'll take you to a nice restaurant.
Then I'll buy you some new clothes.
Who did your laundry?
It's got pilling.
Why are you still wearing it?
Let me take you shopping.
Mom, I've got enough clothes.
Son, remember,
clothes aren't meant to be worn.
They're meant to be seen.
The son of Ye Hua should be dressed
like a prince.
Come on, let's go.
Shen Xing Ren,
you're playing housewife again?
Where's Qin Zi Qi?
He went to deliver
the rich lady's purchases.
I am not sure.
You mean the VIP shopper?
I wish I could be like her,
as if money doesn't matter.
She spent thousands in one day.
But why would Shi Te Long
send Qin Zi Qi to take care of her?
He might scare her away.
I don't know.
She specifically asked for Qin Zi Qi.
Yeah, right. I don't believe it.
You better watch out
and keep an eye on him.
Watch out for what?
When Zheng Kai Er steals him away,
it'll be too late to cry.
It's never too late to cry.
Anyway, you'll be sorry.
Ms. Zheng, you're only
wearing one earring today.
That's so usual.
It's actually a pair.
I love these earrings.
I don't know when I lost the other one.
Is this a new earring?
My ears aren't pierced.
Then whose is it?
No way, Qin Zi Qi just started
going out with you,
and he's already cheating?
I'll rip him a new one
when he comes back.
Qin Zi Qi, open up!
Open up, now!
What's the matter?
I'm checking to see
if you're hiding a vixen.
What vixen?
Whose is this?
How should I know?
You're lying.
Why are you asking me this?
This was in your jacket pocket.
If you don't know, how should we know?
No way, I don't know where it came from.
Qin Zi Qi, you're so shameless.
How dare you deny cheating?

Liu Yu Le, please calm down.
I have no idea whose it is.
You ungrateful, dirty creep! How dare you?
Lele, calm down.
If you make Xing Ren sad again,
you're dead meat!
Here.
I don't know where it came from.
You don't believe me?
I never said that.
If you said so, then I believe you.
You bought luxury brand clothes?
It's from the outlet.
This brand has outlet stores?

Qin Zi Qi, do you remember what I said,
about the most important thing
when two people are together?
Honesty.
Xing Ren, don't waste your breath on him.
Come up!
Come in.
Ms. Zheng.
Xing Ren, what is it?
Does this earring belong to you?
Why do you have my earring?
I found it in Zi Qi's jacket pocket.
I vaguely remember you wearing it,
so I thought I'd return it to you.
I know, it was from that night when
he came back to work, and it got cold.
So I borrowed his jacket.
I must have lost it then.
I see.
Xing Ren,
please don't read too much into this.
There's nothing between us.
If you're upset, I'm really sorry.
Please don't apologize, Ms. Zheng.
It's fine.
Really?
Yes.
All right, let's have lunch together.
Ms. Zheng, I have a meeting with
the lip gloss vendor. I should get going.
- Bad boy.
- Yes?
Well, how did it go yesterday?
Were you happy delivering the rich lady's
purchases to her hotel room?
Super happy.
Happy?
How come I never get
awesome gigs like that?
I'm also inexplicably handsome.
Well, did she give you anything?
I want to see.
Yes, come here.
It's for me to know.
Why?
I see you as one of my own.
I always tell you my secrets.
I never asked to know your secrets.
Fine, Mr. Specialist.
Now that you're popular,
you shop with the rich lady,
while I listen to your old lady complain.
Don't you know how worried Shen Xing Ren
was about you yesterday?
I defended you.
Is this how you repay me?
Of course, keep all goodies to thyself.
Stop it, you're an animal!
Please kill me now and get it over with.
That sounds oddly familiar...
Punk, now that you've bagged
that sugar mama,
you will go far and get many goodies.
Don't forget me,
I've looked out for you.
Will you stop making everything
about money?
If money can solve it,
it's not a problem.
But no money is a big problem.
Yes, money is life.
We live and die by and for money.
It powers us.
- Right.
- Mr. Shi!
That rich lady is here again.
- She's here again?
- Yes.
The rich lady has come again. I'm ready.
Let's go!
Mr. Shi!
Dismissed.
Mr. Chairman, here is this year's
anniversary sale results,
including comparison with last year
and the year before last,
as well as an analysis
on primary customer groups.
Long time no see.
Qin Mu Bai, what's the meaning
of sending your son to Operations
and making him a lowly specialist?
With his experience, what else can he do?
He's your only son.
He should be taking over the chairmanship.
If you want to train him,
you should still put him
in a better position.
Right now, you're making him
an errand boy of sorts.
It's practically torture.
Running a corporation is no game.
Without skills from actual experience,
how can he run a publicly traded company?
I only made him train
from the bottom for a year.
A year? It's only been a few months.
Have you seen him?
He's my son, now he's pathetic-looking.
Also, the apartment you found him
is terrible!
I'll never put up with your nonsense!
I only made him work from the bottom up.
I just want my only son
to have a life-changing experience.
As for you, you showered him
with luxury cars, watches,
and way too much money,
yet you wouldn't come to see him
and see what he was actually doing.
As Zi Qi's mother,
your behavior is more like nonsense.
What's wrong with spoiling my son?
I don't care about your agreement.
None of it matters.
Name Zi Qi as the general manager
right this minute.
That's impossible.
Unless he passes the test
and proves he is capable
of taking over Jing Shi.
He's your son.
If he's not capable, who is?
Jing Shi doesn't have
to pass down to anyone.
If he lacks the experience and ability,
I will hire a professional executive,
or I'll stay on as the chairman.
Qin Mu Bai!
This is the duty of a corporate manager.
As the chairman,
I'm responsible for the welfare
of all of my employees.
I also have to consider
investors' perception.
We've been divorced for 20 years.
You only wanted money,
you even gave up custody over Zi Qi.
What right do you have to interfere
with the way I teach my son?
Because I gave birth to him,
and I'm his mother.
Qin Mu Bai, don't you forget
how many shares of Jing Shi's stocks
are in my hands.
Fine, don't listen to me now.
I've got ways of making you.
If you expose Zi Qi's identity,
you're forcing me to reveal
skeletons in the closet,
expose the scandal behind our divorce.
You can spend money like water,
because you're Jing Shi's
major stockholder,
and a beneficiary
with no contribution to make.
If you're ready to be
publicly humiliated,
and see the stock price suffer,
or you don't care
if your assets evaporate,
then do as you wish.
Mr. Zhang, are you here?
I'm waiting at the VIP lounge entrance.
See you later.
Mr. Chairman.
Ms. Feng just informed me,
"I want everything but those three" lady,
also known as the most arrogant, cocky,
ferocious, ruthless customer
Jing Shi Department Store has ever seen,
has graced us with her presence again.
For the VIP who swipes her credit card
more often than she brushes her teeth...
I will apply the ultimate
leadership principle,
which is I'll do anything for money,
and offer her six-star service.
I want all of her money
to be spent here.
Understand?
Yes, sir.
Punk, you usually have a comeback
for everything I say.
Why are you so quiet today?
Look at you, so disheveled.
Listen up,
"I want everything but those three" lady
not only specifically asked for you,
she even paid to take you out.
You can't have your cake and eat it, too.
Don't scare off other rich shoppers.
I know you're poorer than a church mouse.
Now that you've met a sugar mama,
if you don't kiss up to her,
you might never make it in this world.
I don't need to kiss up to her to make it.
Ma'am. How are you?
Bow, everyone.
Ma'am.
You don't seem too happy.
Worry not,
shopping is the best cure for everything.
You'll be happy once you start shopping.
Mr. Shi, if you can't disappear
from my view,
then at least put it on mute.
That would make me happier.
Mr. Qin, please keep me company today
while I shop.
Mr. Shi, you won't disagree, right?
I'm allowed to speak now?
Of course, he's all yours.
You want him to dance or sing?
Anything you want, it's yours.
Let's go.
Please, ma'am.
Go!
Go after them, Lu Cha!
When she cashes out,
get it done fast!
Yes, sir.
Ms. Mandy, you tag along.
Tell everyone, if she visits a shop,
she's got exclusive shopping rights.
You see? Money makes the world go round.
Your Qin Zi Qi is a handsome sweet-talker.
He's the type all cougars in Asia love.
If you don't have the sense to be nervous,
I think it's only a matter of time
before he ditches you.
Mr. Shi, I have faith in Qin Zi Qi.
He's nothing like you.
What do you think?
Your dad is doing it to annoy me.
Mom, you don't see things the same way.
This time,
Dad's decision might be best.
What's the matter with you?
You've spent too much time with minions,
and lost your sense of pride?
Goodness gracious!
How much does he pay you?
A grand. I just got promoted
so I got a $93 raise.
A grand?
That's two meals' worth of money.
How can you live on that?
No, I must talk to him.
It's not necessary, Mom.
I realized I have a lot to learn.
You can't run a company
like Jing Shi Department Store
simply with an MBA degree.
Making Jing Shi successful
isn't as easy as I thought.
Also, I'm curious how much effort
Dad had to put in
to start this company.
It's not hard at all. You just go for it.
I support you.
I'll get your dad to promote you
to general manager next month.
There's just a few more days left.
Don't you have faith in me?
I'm telling you, a year goes by fast.
I want to prove myself,
show him I'm worthy.
A year?
You're already looking like a valet boy.
I can't stand it for another minute.
You just forget about
the agreement you made with your dad.
If he gives you a hard time,
I'll call a board meeting and scold him.
Mom, I have to honor my promise.
It's a deal made man-to-man.
I'm not a child anymore.
I hope you can respect my decision.
Also, please be
more low-key in the future.
If people find out about us,
they might get the wrong idea.
Fine, low-key.
You can be low-key with me
while I shop.
Come on, let's go.
Is this being low-key?
I can still be a big shopper
while being low-key.
The way you shop,
they'll find out eventually.
I am who I am.
Come on.
Min Min.
Ms. Zheng.
We're going to issue
a personalized gold card
to the VIP customer Mr. Qin was with.
Let me see her credit card slip
to check her spending.
Just a moment, please.
That lady is a crazy shopper.
I heard she spent 31 grand
at a watch shop.
YE HUA
MOTHER - YE HUA
Come inside, hurry.
Cutie, thanks for your help today.
Here, this is for you.
I'm sorry, it's against company policy
to accept tips.
Who cares about company policy?
You can't live on the salary
your dad gives you.
This is my secondary credit card.
It has no credit limit.
Buy whatever you want, I'll pay for it.
If you had given me this card
a few months ago,
I'd have accepted it right away.
But now--
What is it?
I can make my own money.
It's not much, but it's enough to live on.
Money is not meant to be spent,
it's meant to be lavished.
Anyway, just keep the card.
Buy whatever you want with it.
Listen, don't get brainwashed by your dad.
You're my little prince. It's only right
that I should care for you.
I've thought it through. If your dad
won't let you be general manager,
I'll sign over my Jing Shi stock to you.
You can become a board member right away.
That's not necessary.
Listen, your dad worked really hard
to start this company
when he was young.
His poor person mentality
is ingrained in him.
He doesn't know how to enjoy life.
You can't live like that anymore.
The future is yours. You must know
how to make money and spend money.
I have faith in you.
You are the future of Jing Shi.
Excuse me, ma'am.
Mr. Qin has a meeting this afternoon
with our vendor.
Mr. Shi asked me to come get him.
Why? I want Mr. Qin to keep me company.
Tell your manager he's staying here.
Ma'am, I'm sorry,
this afternoon's meeting
is very important.
Mr. Qin is the person
in charge of this project.
Maybe you can wait until we're done.
That's your problem.
Or get your manager to come see me.
Ma'am, excuse me.
Let me talk to Ms. Shen.
My files are on my computer.
Get them.
I'll be right over when I'm done.
Qin Zi Qi.
What is it?
Do you know this customer from before?
I served her last time.
Go get my stuff ready, I'll be there.
Ma'am, please let me go back to work.
It's my job.
Why would you hire a bunch of people
but don't let them work?
Get that dowdy girl
to attend your meeting for you.
Her name is Shen Xing Ren,
my boss.
She's your boss?
As in your supervisor?
- You have to report to her?
- That's right.
She's just a dowdy girl.
How can she be your boss?
I think she's wonderful.
People with poor taste
shouldn't be in charge.
Why are you defending her?
Who is she to you?
She's my girlfriend.
Zi Qi, you must think
I have no sense of humor.
If I don't laugh at this joke,
you'd be mad at me.
You, the heir of a huge corporation,
and a homely girl like that?
That's hilarious!
No joke, she is my girlfriend.
And I like her very much.
I'm going back to work.
Thank you for choosing Jing Shi.
I'll arrange delivery for your purchases.
I look forward to serving you again.
Thank you.
Lele, I think Qin Zi Qi's relationship
to that VIP lady
seems a little odd.
What's so odd about it?
Qin Zi Qi is dirt poor.
How would he know that VIP customer?
I just get this feeling
they already know each other.
But when I asked him about it,
he kept joking around.
He didn't answer my question.
That's odd.
Is it?
Don't listen to Mr. Shi
and his senseless talk.
Qin Zi Qi doesn't seem
like the Oedipus complex type.
I'm not worried about that.
What is it then?
I get the feeling
that he's keeping something from me.
He's hiding something.
He's hiding something?
So you think he's lying to you?
It's just a gut feeling.
Really?
Xing Ren,
your gut feeling has got to be right.
Why?
You're super laid-back,
if you think something's off,
then it's got to be true.
You want me to interrogate him?
No.
What if it's nothing,
and we're just being silly?
Maybe it's nothing at all.
Maybe I'm just being silly.
No, it obviously bothers you enough
for you to tell me about it.
Why force yourself to defend him?
Xing Ren! Lele!
- Ms. Zheng.
- Ms. Zheng.
Operations has been working hard.
Is it going well?
Very well, all the shops spent
a lot of effort decorating.
It's hard to score them.
By the way, will you attend
the vendor meeting this afternoon?
Yes, I'll be there.
If you need Leasing's help,
do say so in the meeting.
I'll support you for sure.
All right, I should get going.
Aren't Zheng Kai Er's earrings the same as
the one you found in Qin Zi Qi's pocket?
Yeah, they look so similar.
Not similar, they're one and the same!
That slimy creep!
I can't believe he'd go back to her.
Lele, don't get so worked up.
It's a misunderstanding.
Ms. Zheng already explained
to me. It's fine.
Xing Ren, are you gullible or foolish?
Honestly!
Lele!
Lele! Liu Yu Le!
Don't be mad.
Ms. Zheng already explained it to me.
It's not a big deal.
Don't blow up like that, all right?
Xing Ren, please open your eyes.
My eyes are open.
Zheng Kai Er has her mind
set on Qin Zi Qi.
Anyone can see it.
Aren't you worried
she might steal your boyfriend?
If she can steal him, then he's not mine.
I really believe they're just friends.
It's no big deal. Quit overreacting.
I'm not overreacting.
The evidence is right in front of you.
Why are you lying to yourself?
Excuse me, do you use C-Shop's lotion?
You know this brand?
I didn't know it was popular here.
I love its scent.
It's unique and has healing properties.
That's right. That's why I love it.
Oh no!
What is it?
Mine is all gone.
I forgot to get it
while I was shopping at Jing Shi earlier.
My memory is terrible now that I'm old.
You look so young.
You can't be that old.
I'm not young, my son is 27 years old.
Really? You look amazing.
You're in such great shape.
Is it because you do yoga?
It sure has something to do with it.
I've invested a lot of effort
into maintaining my looks.
I've only just started doing yoga.
May I ask for your help
if I have questions in the future?
I've been doing yoga for ages.
I'm happy to help out.
We should do yoga together.
Sure.
Excuse me, I have to take this call.
Go ahead.
