=The Love You Give Me=
[Adapted from Shi Dingrou's novel of the same name]

=Episode 18=

You asked me a question that day.

I can answer you now.

I like you.

I hope I can be with you

every day in my future.

And our Quanquan.

All right?

Xin Qi, did you forget about that?

Our story ended five years ago.

During this time we've spent together,

I often wonder

if we could start again.

That morning,

you said that to me.

I'm willing to spend my whole life

repaying you.

Can you give me one more chance?

Sunflower brings the meaning

of anticipating for the reunion of love.

As you walked slowly toward me

and put that bracelet on my wrist,

I felt really happy.

I know

you're mad at me,

because of Chen Jiajun.

I didn't stand by your side
at the first time

and didn't trust you.

But I've explained myself.

I know.

So, I began to understand you

after calming down.

I accept your apology.

But why?

Because I'm afraid.

I'm afraid
that I'll endure the same pain

if we restart.

Also, I'm afraid

that the shadow of Su Tian
will continue to haunt us.

But there's no love

between us.

I know.

Can you assure me

this is the last time

you blame me for her death?

I don't want

that accident

to become a time b*mb

that buries within us.

I don't want the wounds
from five years ago

to keep opening up over and over again.

That's beyond me.

Starting today,

we're just

Quanquan's parents.

And

nothing more.

Please.

Pass this to him.

Don't tell him about me.

I want him to be safe.

[Su Tian.]

[Hopefully, you can rest in peace.]

[In our next life,]

[I wish we could meet earlier.]

Min Hui.

Did you forget that I'm a boy?

Apparently, this backpack is for girls.

Quanquan.

Look, isn't that design great?

It was too rushed
to pick a present for you

when I left.

But, look.

You can give this backpack

to Huan or Nuan,

am I right?

But I don't like Huan anymore.

I like Zhuzhu now.

You move on so fast.

Gosh, I didn't know

you're actually a playboy.

But Zhuzhu is going to marry Daddy Zhou.

What? Who?

Daddy Zhou.

That's a lot to take in.

That's nonsense.

Zhuzhu was joking.

Zhuzhu?

Who's it? Your girlfriend?

Eat the fruit.

Zhou Ruji, I smell something.

Finally, your frozen heart melts.

Is she pretty?

How old is she?

Does she like you too?

Do you like her?

Do you like each other?

You're prying

as if you're my mother.

I'm showing concern for you.

As your good friend,

I've never seen you date someone

since I knew you.

To be honest,
I used to think that you...

Aren't you the same too?

You've been alone all this time.

No, it's different.

She has Xin Qi.

Well, right.

Cao Mu told me

that you had an argument with Xin Qi
in Shanghai.

But she didn't say much about it.

What has happened?

Have you made up with him?

We made a clean breakup this time.

[Have you reached home?]

[It's been hectic these days.]

[Get a good sleep.]

[Min Hui]

It's for you.

Thank you.

So, Xin Qi and you

are over?

Yes, we're over.

I admit that I'm sad,

but I'll get through it.

After all, there are many people
and things

that are important in my life.

Love relationship isn't everything.

Well said.

The Min Hui I know
has finally come back.

When did I even leave?

Well, wrong expression.

You've never changed.

Last time, you told me

you suddenly realized

that Quanquan always wanted a father

after Xin Qi's appearance.

What do you do about this now?

You've been all alone these years.

Don't you want to find another man

besides Xin Qi?

Yes, I do.

But I can't find a suitable one.

What kind of man do you want?

Care to share?

Perhaps I...

I can give you some suggestions.

First of all,

we must share the same topic

and feel comfortable around each other

without awkwardness.

Next, no suspicion and mistrust

between us.

On top of all of that,
he should treat Quanquan well.

Are you referring to me?

You're not telling me
you have a crush on me, are you?

I will splash on your face.

But seriously,

many couples around me

were developed from friends.

It's like finding a companion in life,
after all.

It's pretty good.

That's not good.

We have lots of time ahead.

I'm not going to compromise now.

You too.

You still have

Zhuzhu waiting for you.

[Are you in bed now?]

[Is Quanquan asleep?]

[Have you reached home? It's been
hectic these days. Get a good sleep.]

[Are you in bed now?
Is Quanquan asleep?]

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello, dear.

Ms. Min.

Mr. Xin has been waiting for you inside.

Morning, Mr. Xin.

You didn't reply to my message.

Normally, I won't reply

to work messages during rest days.

It's not about the work.

I'm so sorry, Mr. Xin.

We're just

business partners now.

So, I'm not obliged
to respond to anything

outside of work.

Is there anything else?

If not, I have to work now.

Mr. Liao of Daye Group

would like to have dinner with you

for the collaboration matter.

Collaboration, my foot.

Every time I eat with him,

I have to drink and
listen to him bragging about himself.

Tell him I'm not free tonight.

[Chen Jiajun]

[I'm back. I'm at the entrance now.]

[Did you change your passcode?]

Zhang Beibei.

Make an appointment with Mr. Liao

and choose a fancy restaurant.

Yes.

[Where are you now? I'll come to you.]

You have the guts, huh?

[I have something to tell you
face-to-face.]

[The message is successfully sent
but rejected by the receiver.]

Mr. Xin.

We've come out with a detailed report

on the progress of Mist.

Please have a look.

Firstly, tests in every phase.

Secondly, the final presentation
of the product.

It's classified into three sections.

Finally, the conclusion and discussion
of statistical analysis.

This is the result

concluded by the discussion team

led by Ms. Min and me.

So, that's all we got so far.

Please take a look.

Min Hui.

Min Hui.

There are functions like machine vision,

speech recognition, and deep learning.

As for the operating plan,

we develop these formations.

You're here, Mr. Xin.

Mr. Xin.

I have brought afternoon tea for you.

- Thank you, Mr. Xin.
- Thank you, Mr. Xin.

[Xin Qi: Let's have dinner together.]

[Sorry.]

[The number you're calling is busy.]

[Please try again later.]

How to deal with
my girlfriend who's sulking?

[How to deal with
my girlfriend who's sulking?]

Ex-wife?

[How to deal with
a girlfriend who's sulking?]

Mr. Xin.

Be careful of heatstroke.

It seems that Ms. Min

has already given up.

The way she looked at you

is like looking at a stranger.

Of course, that's different.

Have you been in love with someone?

Oh my.

Isn't that apparent?

You've been in love with someone?

Who are they?

How many girlfriends have you dated?

When?

Just one?

No.

I dated three girls

in three years each

during college.

After graduating,

I had one girlfriend per year.

But after I work for you,

I never date anyone.

No time for that.

Come on.

Please sit.

I...

Share with me.

Well,

that's hard though.

Hardy.

You haven't got a raise
for a year, right?

In that case,

that's a pretty simple thing.

I've read a book previously.

It said

that aggressive women
can't resist pestering suitors.

Meaning to say...

No. I can't.

I'm not the clingy type.

It doesn't suit my character.

Seriously?

Do you think maintaining your image

is more important
than winning back Ms. Min now?

Ms. Min

is the kind who won't stand down
in the face of dominant men.

The bossy type won't work for her.

Instead, pestering type

might be feasible.

Also,

you have Quanquan between you.

Hence, there's no way

she could make a clear breakup with you.

Sounds reasonable.

Of course.

What book did you read this from?

"The Pampered Husband
of The Female Boss."

Very informative.

No, Mr. Xin.

I'm sorry.

Fine.

I won't read such a useless book

anymore.

I'll throw them...

Get me this.

Buy them all.

The whole series.

I want them all.

Point taken.

I'll go right away.

"Pampered husband of the female boss."

Quanquan, go get the door.

Who's it? The postman?

No, it's Xin Qi.

Oh, I haven't eaten yet.

It seems

the food quality drops after I left.

Mr. Xin.

I...

Please don't call me that at home.

Quanquan.

Do you miss me?

I do.

Hurry up.

The food is going to cool off.

It's a bit spicy.

Have more.

Make yourself at home.

Here, Quanquan.

Quanquan.

Let's go for a movie after dinner,

all right?

Hardy said

there's a great new animated movie.

Sure, it's been a long time
since I watched movies.

Min Hui.

Can we go to a movie after this?

Sure.

Quanquan, what are you doing?

Nothing.

Eat the dishes.

Home-cooked is always the best.

Quanquan.

Quanquan, get in.

Get in the car.

Get in the car.

According to our agreement,

you can see Quanquan
once a week.

So, tonight counts as your visit
for this week.

If he wants to stay
in your house tonight,

just text me.

You're not coming with us?

I allowed Quanquan to go to the movie
with you.

But I didn't say that I'm tagging along.

Xin Qi.

I think

you should understand what I told you

in Shi'an Town.

I understand what you meant,

but I don't agree with it.

That's why I want to prove

that you're the only woman I want.

In the past, present,

and future.

But I don't have feelings
for you anymore.

I will rekindle the sparkle between us.

Whatever.

You can waste your time

as much as you wish.

I ordered the service.

Where are you going?

Since someone is looking
after Quanquan, I'm going on a date.

Min Hui.

What do you know again this time?

I don't.

[Block 8]

You're back.

Why do you look for me?

I know you have misunderstandings
about me.

So I came here to explain myself.

I didn't eat anything today.

Can you let me go up?

I miss you so much.

Stay right there.

Keep a distance from me.

Fire away.

Why did you ignore my calls and texts?

I misunderstood that Min Hui caused
my sister's death.

I didn't know how to face you

when I thought about
how good you two are.

So, I...

So?

So you planned to break up with me

if the investigation led to no way?

No, I didn't.

I was afraid
you won't talk to me anymore.

How do you explain
that you approached me purposely

and moved into my house as my boyfriend

after I hit you with my car?

You even wanted me
to introduce Min Hui to you.

Are you going to deny

that this wasn't
to investigate your sister's case?

It's an accident to know you.

There's no such coincidence.

I should've known

that you approached me with a purpose.

No, I didn't. Cao Mu.

Let go of me.

Chen Jiajun.

After this incident,

I realized that I know nothing
about you,

so do you.

I hate dishonesty.

I've packed your things.

I hope that you can leave

before I come back.

Wait.

Cao Mu.

Did you tick Min Hui off again?

How did you know?

Oh, please.

You've been typing to Min Hui
since just now.

Yet you didn't send it out.

You feel guilty.

Min Hui said

you're a kid and
you can't take cold drinks.

What do you think Min Hui's doing?

Who's she dating?

Is it Zhou Ruji?

How would I know about that?

They didn't tell me anything.

Are you curious?

Do you know?

You want two?

Min Hui won't allow me to take you out

if she finds out.

Not the yogurt.

I want your phone.

What for?

Who are you calling?

Hello.

Where are you, Daddy Zhou?

[I'm on the night shift.]

[What's up? Whose number is this?]

This is my dad's number.

Nothing. It's just that I miss you.

Please do well with your work.

Love you.

As expected of my son.

Smart boy.

But you can't say you miss him

or love him anymore.

You can only say that to me

and Min Hui.

Do you hear me?

Got it.

Petty daddy.

But who is Min Hui seeing now?

I shouldn't have taken your call.

Be that as it may,

you will still be drinking alone here.

How pitiful.

Cao Mu, I told you

Chen Jiajun can't be
that kind of person.

Had he wanted to investigate me,

he should've hit on me directly.

Why did he have to take
such a big detour

to approach you first?

He doesn't look like someone scheming.

Perhaps I'm more gorgeous than you.

Can I beat you up now?

You're well aware

that Chen Jiajun wouldn't do that.

So, what are you up to now?

I'm really pissed off.

He had so many chances

to explain this.

Why did he not tell me

and keep investigating?

What am I to him?

Regarding this,

Chen Jiajun has done wrong.

But it's not necessary
to break up with him.

To be honest,

I think I care too much about him.

Well, that's the thing.

But that shouldn't be the thing.

Do you know what the best
relationship is between the couple?

Close but independent.

What does it mean?

It means that two people
like each other,

but they aren't fully occupied
with each other.

When they're together, they're happy.

But when they're not,

they focus on their own lives.

That's the way it should be.

Are you suggesting that you can
only give half of your love?

What I mean is

you should love yourself

more than you love the other person.

So that you won't lose the ground.

Are you talking about dating,

not w*r?

Why do we have to determine
a winner or loser?

Dating is sometimes like a battle.

I quite disapprove of your view,

but I support your decision.

Well.

Since everything is back
to square one now,

let's celebrate

our wonderful single life.

No.

I won't be single for too long.

Fine.

To my single life.

Give me something strong.

I want to find someone
even more handsome

and younger.

I'm sorry, Xin Qi.

If it wasn't for me,

Min Hui and you wouldn't
have ended up like this.

So, I prepared these today

to apologize to you.

It's not related to you.

Without you,

Min Hui and I would
have rough patches too.

She's right.

Su Tian's a thorn between us.

If we don't remove this,

we can't be together.

Why are women so strange

and fickle?

Everything was fine a few days ago,

and now she wants to break up.

Don't ask me about this.

I'm like you.

I don't know much

about women in this regard.

Quanquan, why are you sighing?

Do you want to make them forgive you?

Ask me.

I grew up with them,

and I know their preferences

very well.

So, tell me.

What to do to make Mommy
change her mind?

Every time I get on her nerves,

I just need to act cute and coax her.

I suddenly feel like what Quanquan said
makes sense.

Xin Qi, why don't we form an ally?

Consider this.

Now Min Hui ignores you,

but she talks to me.

Cao Mu refuses to see me,

but you can talk to her.

Let's form an ally and help each other.

It's an efficient collaboration.

Let's do it.

The Love Pursuers Ally is established.

[The Love Pursuers Ally]
Wait.

This name sounds old-fashioned.

Is it?

Cao Mu said,

there's no mistake

that a bouquet of flowers
can't put right.

If not, try two.

[Day 1]

[First move of pursuing love:
Flower bouquets]

The more flowers you give,

the more sincere you appear to be.

I assure you
that Min Hui will be overjoyed

when she sees the flowers.

Cai.

I...

Well...

What's going on in my office?

The person who delivered
the flowers this morning said

you knew the sender.

How would I know?

Jia.

Do you like this?

Apparently.

Don't tell me you like the flowers too.

Apparently.

Do you all like it too?

Great! You can have them.

[Day 2]
I want two.

Come on.

Take them away.

Thank you, Ms. Min.

I want it too.

Take it.

Thank you.

I want this.

Thank you.

Off you go.

Ms. Min, my flower...

You can have this.

Take it

and leave.

Get back to your work.

Besides, Cao Mu said,

no woman is immune

to a considerate guy with sweet words.

Ms. Min.

Here's your parcel.

Thank you.

[Day 3]

[Second move of pursuing love:
Sweet words]

[Use this when you drink water.]

[The water will taste sweet.]

[Because it's full of my love.]

Speak boldly about your care for her

as much as you can.

She will be very touched for sure.

It's already nine.

She's never late to work.

Hasn't she received flowers yet?

[Have you received the flowers?]

Meimei.

Ms. Min.

What's the matter?

I...

You should speak up

for what you want.

Otherwise, no one can help you.

Can I transfer to R&D Team B?

Have you made up your mind?

Ms. Min.

I'm capable.

If you approve the transfer,

I will strive as much as I can at work.

I don't need you to strive too hard.

Just finish all your work

will do.

Do you approve of it?

But it's not valid with my approval.

Ding Yifeng should let you go.

Well.

You go write
the transfer application first.

I'll handle the rest.

Really?

Thank you so much, Ms. Min.

Off you go.

"The most interested party
in AI Summit."

"Be Agile, is a budding company
in the industry."

The reporters seemed

to have a good nose.

I'm sorry.

My handphone hasn't stopped ringing

after the summit ended.

Certainly.

Be Agile's achievements today

are all thanks to your wise leadership.

Min Hui.

Your AI heart modeling technology

has received high praise

from peers and experts at the summit.

I have an interview
with a medical journal tomorrow.

You should go with me.

Mr. He.

I believe you can handle
the interview very well

by yourself.

You represent Be Agile.

Other people aren't necessary
to show up.

If you need someone

to carry your bag or serve water,

I can do it.

The interview

is about the details of
AI heart modeling technology.

Who do you think can explain this,
you or me?

Mr. Xin.

This way, please.

Mr. Xin. Ms. Min is having a meeting.

Show me the way.

All right, this way.

I hold this meeting today

because I have something
to discuss with you.

Sure, go ahead.

Mr. Xin.

I'm sorry to disturb you, Mr. He.

I passed by here.

I heard that you're having a meeting

about the AI heart modeling technology.

So, I stopped by here.

Would you mind?

Of course, not.

Please take a seat.

Please sit.

Mr. Xin...

Sit, please.

Go on.

Sure.

You ought to behave well

and listen to the teacher in the school.

I will come over
to play with you next time, okay?

You must remember what I told you.

If any pretty ladies approach Daddy Zhou,

inform me right away.

Quanquan is the best.

I'm hanging up.

Why don't you give him your numbers?

He always calls me
when he wants to talk to you.

No, I won't.

This is our agreement.

Otherwise, I won't have any excuses
to come to see you.

What's wrong?

You seem down.

Nothing.

Please tell me.

I want to satisfy my curiosity.

I just realized

why you said
that I'm the second male lead.

[Jiaren Hospital]
For the past few years,

I always thought

Min Hui stopped liking anyone

because of Quanquan.

So, I didn't tell her

my true feelings.

I was afraid of making things awkward

and losing her as a friend.

It proves me wrong

until Xin Qi showed up.

Xin...Xin Qi? Who's that?

Quanquan's biological father.

His appearance made me realize

that Min Hui didn't stop liking anyone.

She just didn't like me.

Even if she and Xin Qi broke up

completely,

she never considered being with me.

In her heart,

I'm only

her best friend

forever.

Like you said,

I'm the second male lead.

Get a grip, Zhou Ruji.

I didn't finish my sentence that day.

The current trend is that the second
male lead outperforms the rest.

Besides,

you've been by Min Hui

and Quanquan's side all the years.

How could you give up so easily?

You're the man I, Yao Zizhu, like.

You shouldn't be inferior.

Right now, Min Hui just hasn't
discovered how good you are.

Yes, that's the truth.

Dr. Zhou, you're a perfect guy.

You get to be brave

like me.

Confess your liking for her,

otherwise, she won't know.

Am I right?

Do you want me

to confess?

Of course, you do.

Although

I don't want you two to be together,

because I'll be heartbroken.

However, I hate to see you

to have regrets

for not confessing

when you like her so much.

Well.

Remember what I said.

Think about it carefully.

[Jiaren Hospital]

My biggest gain from this summit

is that I have met several researchers
around the globe

who're also interested in this field.

I very approve of the ideas
and technical abilities

raised by some of them.

I'm thinking

if we should open a channel

to promote cooperation,

and invite them to join
as technical partners

for the following development.

I think this approach is efficient.

I don't think that's necessary.

Our R&D team

is capable of this.

Besides, Min Hui,

you assured me of that before.

Mr. He, I think...

I believe this is necessary.

I've met those who Min Hui mentioned

at the summit.

They are professional.

Of course,

they might be lacking in many ways

compared to Min Hui.

But I believe it can speed up the launch

if they join us.

Min Hui.

The thing is, how should we divide

the patent rights?

That's right.

They don't belong to Be Agile.

If you're doing this,

it's a waste of investor's money.

Having an increase in labor costs,

but the R&D duration
can be shortened substantially.

I can crunch the numbers well here.

I think what you're most concerned about

is the patent right for this technology.

Ms. Min.

Concerning your relationship
with Mr. Xin,

I must remind you

that you're the R&D director
of Be Agile.

Be Agile's interest is our top priority.

Otherwise, some might say

that women are emotional.

And then you'll claim us
for not respecting women.

Mr. Ding.

The reason I'm doing this

is out of my responsibility

to both our company and investors.

Science is borderless.

You can't let

your limited mind

impede the technology from developing.

Also, I don't think you can stop this.

Mr. He.

Mr. Ding

is on the same level as Min Hui,

but he's not on the R&D team

of this project.

Why is he sitting here?

Does it mean that your company

doesn't practice
confidentiality protocol

for the core technology?

Here's the thing, Mr. Xin.

I ask Mr. Ding here

to help us.

For making it worse?

I fully agree
with Ms. Min's suggestion.

Well, Min Hui.

Since Mr. Xin has said so,

you can proceed.

Thank you, Mr. He.

And Mr. Xin too.

By the way,

my project team

has too much workload.

I need an assistant.

I wonder if Mr. Ding
can give me his team member.

Go find an assistant yourself
if you need one.

Don't take mine.

But Zhong Meimei has already sent me

a transfer application.

Mr. He.

I don't know if this violates

the transfer policy of the company.

Of course not.

Good to know that.

Mr. He.
