Didn't I tell you?

You can't leave the house

before the bidding meeting ends.

I've stayed home for too long.

I need to go out

and get some fresh air.

Do you want to get some fresh air,

or are you trying to use this opportunity

to meet someone?

You are way too controlling.

I can't possibly avoid

seeing a single soul outside, right?

Forget a soul.

You can't even see a ghost.

From now on,

I will have Bu Fan

watch you closely 24 hours a day.

Fine.

[The bidding meeting is in two days.]



[to deliver the quotation.]

[If I get injured,]

[I'll have a reason to go out.]

Qi Dong.

Are you alright, Qi Dong?

Ms. Mei.

- Ms. Mei. - Coming.

Help him.

What happened?

I've just been away for two minutes.

Let's go to the hospital.

I'll go get the car ready.

Qi Dong, we're going to the hospital.

Let's go.

Mr. Gao,

the target has appeared.

However,

Qi Dong seems to be injured.

Let's go to the hospital.

Doctor, how is he?

It's a mild second-degree burn.

Fortunately, it was treated in time.

It's nothing serious.

Just make sure to keep it clean
to avoid infection.

You can apply burn ointment

to promote healing.

Also, make sure he gets enough nutrition.

No spicy food.

Normally, it should scab and heal

in about two weeks.

Thank you, doctor.

No problem.

You...

Why did you protect me?

I told you

that you are a good blade.

I won't let a good blade get dulled.

Well,

the price you paid to use this blade

is a bit high.

You're worth it.

Dong.

Dong, Dong.

Are you alright?

Ms. Mei said you got burned.

I rushed over from the company.

If you need a skin graft, take mine.

I can only use my own skin for a graft.

Besides,

my injury isn't that serious.

That's good.

Wait. Wasn't Ms. Mei the one cooking?

How did you get burned?

We haven't paid for the medicine.

Go ahead.

Dong.

What happened?

[Card or cash; Payment for hospitalization]

You tried to hurt yourself.

What a surprise.

You're amazing.

You even got Qi Dong into the hospital.

It indeed is a surprise.

Qi Dong has thick skin.

A burn isn't a big deal for him.

But Gege,

you didn't get hurt, right?

I'm fine.

No need to worry.

That's good.

Well,

where's the quotation?

Mom, Mom.

You can't take my mom away.

Don't take my mom away.

Look at me.

Mom.

Open your eyes and look at me, please.

Mom, don't leave me.

I'm You You.

Get her to the operating room.

What's going on?

I didn't expect you to be so emotional.

You're becoming more interesting to me.

You're more impressive.

You have two faces

to switch freely.

That's the Qi Gege I know.

[I. Steel structure section]

Qi Gege really is capable.

It looks like the CEC project

is already in your pocket.

Get everyone back to the company
and work overtime to revise the bidding plan.

You You is way too ruthless toward herself.

She'd even hurt herself
just to deliver info.

Good thing you protected her,

or she would've suffered a severe burn.

She is willing

to give up her life for revenge.

A burn is nothing to her.

Then why did you protect her?

You could've just let her get burned.

If she suffered a serious burn,

who'd deliver the info to Gao Shanshan?

You?

Still, the price you paid is too high.

If one of us had

to sacrifice,

I'd rather it be me.

Dong,

have you fallen for You You?

I'm doing this to keep things
from getting out of control.

You don't understand.

You've recovered so fast.

I was only gone a moment,

and you can already hit someone?

So,

I can be discharged now.

Wait.

Dong, stay a couple more days.

If you want to stay, stay yourself.

- How do I handle this?
- Let me take a look.

- This one. - Yeah, this number.

This price is clearly too high.

- You two continue. - OK.

Let's recalculate this.

Look at this part.

Alright.

Mr. Gao.

Mr. Gao.

Jingjing, why are you here?

Meeting adjourned.

Didn't you say

Qi Gege was just a pawn?

What?

Are you addicted to fighting
with Qi Dong now?

You want both his position

and his woman?

Let's go. Hurry.

Let's go.

Three years ago, you said you wanted
to raise an Exotic Shorthair.

I went to the pet shop to pick one for you,

but you misunderstood my relationship
with the shop assistant.

In the end, you threw the cat away.

Xie Li, your rehab doctor.

I met her to discuss your recovery plan.

You misunderstood again

and caused a scene at the rehab hospital.

That doctor was suspended too.

Na,

your once best friend.

I met her at a café to plan

a surprise marriage proposal for you.

But we got photographed.

You had a falling out with her,

and the proposal was ruined.

Enough.

Stop it.

Jingjing,

none of this was your fault.

You were trapped in that wheelchair,

so you overthink

and get anxious and insecure, right?

Shanshan.

Shanshan.

Don't be mad, Shanshan.

How about this?

I'll go back

and fire all the bodyguards.

I'll stop filming.

Alright?

Jingjing,

you have no idea how wonderful you are.

Everything I did

was just to please you.

I'm terrified that one day

you'll leave me.

What about Qi Gege?

She's like all the
other women in the photos.

They're just tools to please you.

I'm sorry, Shanshan.

I was wrong.

Yes.

You were wrong.

You have no idea how much

I've sacrificed over the years,

just so we could be better together.

All you do is sit at home,

overthinking,

doubting your fiance.

Have you ever considered our future?

I...

Have you contributed even a little
to this battle for the inheritance?

Do you know how serious it would be

if we lost to Qi Dong?

Actually...

Actually, you don't need
to find other women.

I can do everything

that Qi Gege can.

I promise I can do it even better than her.

Please trust me, Shanshan.

Trust me.

Of course, I trust you.

But you need to prove it with actions.

I'm fighting for our future.

You should fight too,

right?

Xu Peng, you can't get away.

[International Commerce Center]

Hello, I'm a gardener
from Language of Flowers.

I'm here for the pest control
for your Chinese roses.

Here's my ID.

Why is it you this time?

I remember it used to be a young guy.

That's right.

He quit and went home to get married.

From now on, I'll be handling your place.

Please come in.

This way.

Chinese roses are very prone to pests.

Different pests

require different treatments.

For example, for this slug moth,

you need to spray trichlorfon.

But for scale insects, you have to use

Buprofezin Wettable Powder.

Miss Qi.

Mr. Qi is fond of Chinese roses,
so he's always hired a professional gardener.

I happen to love Chinese roses too.

Go ahead, Ms. Mei.

I'll take care of things here.

I can also learn from a professional.

Thanks for your help, Miss Qi.

You You, Xu Peng has been found.

That guy is a gambler.

I hacked into his offshore gambling account
and traced his IP address.

Guess where he's hiding.

Stop keeping me in suspense.

He's hiding in the shut-down TCM clinic.

He's hiding in plain sight.

He can run,

but he can't hide forever.

Scum like him

will die sooner or later.

How is

your injury?

Are you worried about me?

I'm just worried you'll mess up
at the bidding meeting this afternoon

because of the injury

and then blame it on me.

I'm confident in my proposal.

What?

Do you want to see it for yourself?

No way.

What's the point

in watching a sure win?

Seems like

you enjoy taking risks.

Compared to predictable outcomes,

you and I both

prefer unexpected twists,

don't we?

Looks like we're getting more in sync.

Help me pick a tie.

This one.

It does suit your style.

What style?

A thorn hidden under the flowers.

Then you'd better be careful not to get pricked.

No one can hurt me,

except you.

Today, just stay home

and wait for me to win.

Don't sneak out while I'm gone.

Don't worry.

Today,

I'll cook

a feast myself

to celebrate your victory.

But this time,

I'll be careful with the oil.

Don't let me down.

Dong is really something,
making me watch You You cooking.

What's the point?

Miss Qi?

Why did she try to fry food again?

Miss Qi.

Miss Qi?

Miss Qi...

This is bad.

[Bid Evaluation for Ninghai CEC]
After discussion

by the review panel,

the bid winner

of the Ninghai CEC

is Xingkong,

a subsidiary of Xingyao Group.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

You...

How did you get in?

What do you want?

Of course, I'll avenge old grudges

and settle old scores.

You look so scared.

I'm just teasing you.

What do you want?

I want to help you.

Help me?

I have a clear understanding

of what's right and wrong.

Hand over the video,

tell me who ordered you,

and I'll let the past go.

What video?

I don't know what you're talking about.

In that case,

I'll have to call the police.

You're asking for it.

What did you do to me?

Look at you.

Don't you remember?

Isn't this your former boss's
favorite trick?

I added something

to your towel.

I'm no expert in acupuncture,

but I'm curious.

Tell me.

If I stick this needle into your temple,

will it jog your memory?

You wouldn't dare.

I'll talk.

I'll talk!

Just put the needle away first.

[New recording]
Talk.

Who told you to secretly record the video?

Gao Shanshan.

How much did Qi Dong pay you to twist the truth?

I'm not lying.

It was all his idea.

Gao Shanshan knew very well

that Mr. Fu hated An Guoxuan
and would never hand the project

to Xingyao easily.

You could never get it by running with him.

That would be like daydreaming.

So, he promised that after he inherited Xingyao,

he'd give Mr. Fu 10% of the shares.

And you

were the bonus gift

in the deal.

But actually,

Gao Shanshan didn't even want

to give Mr. Fu that 10%.

So he paid me

to secretly film him

assaulting you,

so he could use it as leverage
against Mr. Fu.

Where's the video?

I went to meet Gao Shanshan's assistant
as instructed in the parking lot,

handed over the video,

and got the rest of my payment.

Hello?

I'm here.

Don't worry.

The video is only on this USB.

There are no backups.

It was taken away?

It was the day after you jumped into the sea

and before Fu Hao was arrested.

You wicked woman.

I should've k*lled you in that restaurant.

You're still alive?

Since you're here,

I'm guessing

Qi Dong came too.

Smart.

Judging by the situation,

I believe you've won the CEC project.

Thanks to you.

If you hadn't tried your best to tell

Gao Shanshan my quotation,

I wouldn't have

triumphed

at the bidding meeting today.

Looks like you planned

every step.

If that's true,

I wouldn't have let you

fall into this scumbag's hands.

That's enough, Qi Dong.

It's okay.

He's just fainted.

No need to dirty your hands for him.

By the way,

this pen

is yours, right?

I found it the day of the car crash.

I wanted to return it,

but you

disappeared.

So, I had to make good use of it

by giving it to her.

This is

the token from Wen, right?

Yeah.

Thanks.

You can have the pen.

But you owe me an explanation

for this locator.

Someone has to take the fall for this.

And faking my death

already broke the law.

Fu Hao is sent up.

My wish is fulfilled.

I should've quit a long time ago.

Actually,

she never liked me smoking.

I promised her I'd quit, but I never did.

Back then, I thought
there was plenty of time ahead,

and that some things could wait.

Looking back...

Gao Shanshan can't beat you.

But you must be wary of An Guoxuan.

He's extremely vicious.

He's more ruthless than anyone.

Also,

he will sacrifice anyone

to protect his own interests.

Don't worry.

I know that better than anyone.

All these years, it's been exhausting.

Finally, I can give myself a break.

And you...

If you like her,

go after her.

There are no secrets

or obstacles

that can stand between you two.

Do you know why I insisted on waiting
for you to show up before taking action?

Because I wanted

to see your reaction

when You You were in danger.

You care about more than just her skills.

You truly care about her.

I've been there.

I know it like the back of my hand.

As for all the complicated past
between the two of you,

I don't know the details.

But I do know one thing:

I have nothing left but regrets,

but you still can change things.

I turned myself in.

To me,

being in jail

is a relief.

I'm leaving.

I'll find you the best lawyer.

Take care.

Xu Peng's video?

Yeah.

What do you plan to do with it?

Expose it.

Fu Hao attempted r*pe;

Gao Shanshan orchestrated it.

This video

and Xu Peng's testimony

will be enough to send
Gao Shanshan to prison.

What are you doing?

My real opponent is An Guoxuan.

It's not worth losing you

over someone

like Gao Shanshan.

At first, I thought Fu Hao's feelings for Wen

were just that of a normal father.

So, I had you deal with Fu Hao.

But

you chose Gao Shanshan over me.

You knew Gao Shanshan

chose to sacrifice me,

yet you kept it from me
and even helped me stage a show.

How could I dare choose you?

We're the same.

Didn't you also use me

to secretly help Gao Shanshan?

I know

you've always had a thorn in your heart.

You're afraid that the real reason I came to you
was to get revenge and t*rture you.

But I can tell you clearly now

we were even five years ago

because I threw you into the sea

for blinding me.

Five years ago, you pushed me into the sea

to put on a show

for An Guoxuan, right?

You had a thousand better ways to k*ll me.

Why choose

the one with the most flaws?

There were so many fishing boats nearby.

As long as I got lucky,

fishermen would pull me out.

To you,

I was your best weapon against An Guoxuan.

To me,

you were my best choice.

Since we're even,

it's time

to start truly working together.
