01x22 - I want to take you home with me

[bunniefuu]

[Adapted from the novel
"Counterattack" by Chai Ji Dan]

[Episode 22,
I Want to Bring You Home]

Men are just
easily understandable beings

They're not unusual at all

I think he understood it.

That was fast.

Chi Cheng is here.

Why are you standing here?

Welcoming you.

- Don't play tricks with me.
- Come in.

I wouldn't dare.

I've fixed all
the electrical appliances.

It's rare for people to visit.

How can I not be excited?

Since you're bored,
learn your lesson.

Stay away from Chi Cheng
from now on.

Mr. Chi.

When do you plan...

to let me go home?

When you've come to your senses...

and decided to cut ties
with Chi Cheng,

I'll let you go home.

Well...

Well, you can't...

stay with me
for the rest of your life.

You're a good young man.

Why do you have perverted thoughts
in your head?

Mr. Chi.

Look.

Look how perverted I am.

Please let me go.

That's your real goal, isn't it?

You're bored, right?

Come on a business trip with me.

I'll tour you
around advanced companies.

Learn from their experience.

Suddenly, it doesn't seem
so boring anymore.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

My stomach hurts.

I need to go to the restroom.

Just five minutes.

Hurry up.

I'm sorry, Mr. Chi.

Let's go for a drink at night.

Why are there bodyguards?

He's hiding someone indeed.

What should I do?

I have to think of a way to escape.

Gosh!

There are no bodyguards anymore.

The heavens are helping me.

Move.

What... What are you doing here?

Where exactly is Wu Suo Wei?

Is this how you treat your dad?

How should I treat you then?

Are you doing
what a dad should be doing?

What did you say? Say it again.

I said what you're doing
is not what a dad should be doing!

Then are you doing
what a man should be doing?

Mr. Chi, please don't be angry.

Young Master Chi didn't mean it.

There's nothing a dad and son
can't talk about.

Let's go.

Don't be mad, Mr. Chi.

Dad.

There's a problem with my attitude.

Look.

You already have gray hair.

I'll pluck it out for you.

Look.

You should get more rest.

I'll get going.

Got it.

Mr. Chi, Wu Suo Wei got away.

Chi Cheng, my "very good" son!

Drink slowly.

Do you want more?

Da Wei.

- Xiao Shuai.
- You're finally back.

Did you miss me?

You know what, Xiao Shuai?

In the past few days,
I've suffered so much.

- Xiao Shuai.
- Da Wei, I missed you so much.

Da Wei, you know what?

I was the one who cracked
the codes you sent.

Really?

If it weren't for me,

you might not be able to come back.

Xiao Shuai.

Chi Cheng.

Your dad is really ruthless.

It's not his dad's fault.

His dad didn't want to hit me.

It's those three men's fault.

Da Wei.

At this state,
why are you still defending him?

Shuai Shuai.

It's none of your business.
Stay out of it.

How dare you yell at me here?

I'm sorry.

- Come and sit down.
- He ran around all day, right?

He's so sweaty.

Let him take a shower first
and get some rest.

Let's go home first. Okay?

Do I stink?

Who said you stink?

You don't stink.

Do you have other injuries?

No.

I just sprained my ankle.

Other than that,
I just have minor scratches.

You've suffered, Wei Wei.

It's okay.

What does the code you sent me mean?

Block 520,

No. 8.

If Jiang Xiao Shuai can't guess it,
you can't too?

Right.

You're right.

My brain...

doesn't work well.

All right?

In that case,

I have to be in charge...

of this family.

All right.

You call all the shots.

Sounds good.

From now on,

you'll be the bottom.

I'll be the top.

Don't even think about it.

Why not?

Because...

I'm handicapped.

It's like...

a left-handed person
being unable to use his right hand.

Someone who has flat feet
can't walk for too long.

Listen, I'll never be
the bottom in this lifetime.

That's nonsense.

You're a jerk
who's full of nonsense!

Fine.

I'm a jerk.

Chi Cheng!

Mr. Wu, slowly.

Mr. Wu, be careful.

Let me do it, Mr. Wu.

You guys can't draw it well.

Only the letter C I draw looks good.

Mr. Wu, please be careful.

I'm fine.

Okay. That's all for now.

I got it.

When I get to the office,
I'll call you back.

Wei Wei.

What are you doing up there?

They missed writing "CC".
I'm filling it in.

Who let him go up there?

There was a problem
with the drawing.

Mr. Wu insisted
on going up there himself.

I called him down many times,
but he wouldn't come down.

Young Master Chi, look...

He won't come down until he's done.

It's done, right?

It's done.

Be careful, Mr. Wu.

- Be careful.
- Be careful.

Okay.

Why are you holding me?

There are so many people watching.

From now on,
I'll do this kind of thing.

Come on, take a look.

If this show is a success,

our company can make
a name for itself in the industry.

And I can live a luxurious life too.

Then can you increase my allowance?

You want a raise in your allowance?

Scold me while sitting down.

Are you shielding me from the sun?

I'm afraid you'll get tanned
like Jiang Xiao Shuai.

You dislike
Jiang Xiao Shuai so much.

When he was spouting nonsense
about the code back then,

didn't you teach him a lesson?

Of course I did.

I used something
on Jiang Xiao Shuai,

then lured Guo Cheng Yu away,
so he just booked a ride home.

Goodness.

You're so ruthless.

[Shuai Shuai]

Godfather, smell it.

It smells quite good.

It's purely plant-based.

It's for scalp treatment.

It seems reliable.

They say it's really good.

Mix it more.

- Let me try.
- All right.

Got it.

It was my mom.

She said after a couple of days,

she's bringing my sister and nephew
back to the country.

Shouldn't you go home
and be with them then?

Don't tell me
you don't even want to go home?

It's not that
I don't want to go home.

I want to bring you home with me.

Stop joking around.

If your dad could accept me,

he wouldn't have kidnapped me.

No matter what,

they are your family.

Go home and check on them.

Last time, because of me,

you and your dad
had a major conflict.

I think you should apologize to him.

Wait.

He kidnapped you.

Why should I apologize to him?

When I was at your house,

I was actually okay.

Your dad...

was also nice to me.

That's just on the surface.

He's a shrewd businessman.

He's subtle,

but lethal.

Just go home and apologize to him.

Things can't be awkward between you
and your family because of me.

I'm not going.

You...

Fine.

I'll go.

I'll go home.

All right?

Don't worry.

I'll make sure
your parents accept me.

You'll be home alone
for the next two days.

- Let's go to bed.
- Let's sleep.

I'm sorry, Mr. Chi.
There's a problem with the car.

- What's wrong with it?
- It might have broken down.

But they've already sent
a new car over.

You might have to wait for a while.

Dad.

I'll give you a ride.

I don't need a ride from you.

Mr. Chi, the car might
take a while to come.

Why don't you ride
in Young Master Chi's car first?

Do you need a ride?

Remember to take this later.

There's no need.

- Mr. Chi, good morning.
- Good morning.

Was that your son?
Did he drive you here?

My car broke down.

My son was worried
and insisted on giving me a ride.

I'm so jealous.

Dad.

You forgot this.

Remember to take it.

What is this?

My son bought me hangover medicine.

He's afraid I'll get drunk
and cause trouble.

- Are you crazy?
- Are you crazy?

You're so sweet.

Carry on.

Did you tell him the passcode too?

No.

Did we leave the door open?

Hey, Chi Cheng.

I'll sleep over
at Xiao Shuai's place.

Spend time with your family at home.

Okay.

You guys carry on.

You're here.

How can I continue?

You're right.

This blanket is nice.

I'll sleep in the second bedroom.

Da Wei.

Cheng Yu bought that for me.

It's okay. I'll buy you another one.

Think of it as a gift for the dog.

I want to watch this.

This isn't good. Watch this.

Don't shake it.

- Watch this.
- You won't behave?

- Change it back.
- No.

- Today, what if...
- Go away!

You've been at it for a week.

Hurry up. Change it back.

You're the best.

Give me a kiss then.

Xiao Shuai, I'm going home.

Don't.

Are we disturbing you?

No.

I can't sleep...

because it's not my bed.

Stop talking nonsense, Da Wei.

You stayed at the clinic
for so long.

You slept well,
even if it wasn't your bed.

I could sleep in other beds before.

But I can't now.

I'll get going.

Starting tonight until tomorrow,

there will be heavy rainfall
in the city.

Darn it.

Did I leave some clothes out?

I almost forgot.

We have a dryer now.

There's no need
to bring the clothes in.

Mom will be pleased
if she knows that.

Dad, I want this high one.

Okay.

- I can't reach it.
- I'll go higher.

Dad, higher.

Until when are you
going to play around?

All these years,
you've dated one guy after another.

Do you still remember
how many people you've harmed?

Forget about the past.

From now on,

there's only Wu Suo Wei.

Are you too lovestruck?

How can you say such nonsense?

It's not nonsense, Dad.

I'm a man of my word.

Then tell me.

What do you two
want to do in the future?

When people point fingers at you
behind your backs,

what are you going to do?

When you're old
and have no children,

what will you do then?

Why should I care
about other people's feelings, Dad?

About having kids,

while we're still young,
we'll earn more money.

When we're old,
we might be happier...

hiring someone to take care of us.

Take you as an example.

Having a son like me,

isn't it more worrying?

You just want to go against me.

Dad.

I don't intend to go against you.

Yes.

I was immature before.

I acted recklessly.

But Wu Suo Wei and I
are working hard for the future now.

Opening a company is the best proof.

Dad.

Please trust me this time.

Your small company...

won't amount to anything.

You even want to use it
as retirement insurance?

You're ignorant of your limitations.

You know what?

I came here today...

because Wu Suo Wei asked me
to spend more time with you.

But I realized...

that you don't need it.

Who's that?

Are you scared?

Who's scared?

Fine.

I was so scared.

I was scared you won't come back
once you were gone.

Wei Wei.

Don't worry.

I'm back now, right?

It's good that you're back.

Dou Dou, we're home.

Come and see your grandpa.

Jia Li, stay longer this time.

- Don't rush back.
- Okay.

Where's Dad?

Grandpa!

Dou Dou!

I missed you so much.

Dad, I'll unpack first
and take a shower.

- You guys have fun.
- Okay.

- I'll come down soon.
- You must be tired, Jia Li.

Did you think of me?

- Yes.
- How did you miss me?

With your little head...

or with your heart?

Dou Dou.

Are you done hiding?

Grandpa, I'm ready.

Okay. I'm coming!

I'll catch you soon.

I'll catch you
and pinch your little face.

Dou Dou.

Dou Dou.

I really can't find you.
Where are you hiding, Dou Dou?

- Dou Dou.
- Grandpa, I'm here!

You're there!

You hid so well.

Grandpa, you're so silly.

Dou Dou, where did you hide?

Where did you hide?

- Tell me.
- Dou Dou.

Uncle!

Did you miss me?

Yes, I did.

Dad, Mom.

Let's eat.

Dou Dou.

Dou Dou.

Is Dou Dou here?

He's not here.

Weren't you playing
hide-and-seek just now?

Dou Dou is missing.

What?

- Dou Dou!
- Dou Dou!

- Dou Dou!
- Dou Dou!

- Dou Dou!
- Come to me!

Stop hiding, Dou Dou!

I checked the attic
and every toilet. He's not there.

We searched
the front and back yards.

He's not there either.

How can you lose him
by playing hide-and-seek?

I'm speechless.

Did Chi Cheng take him away?

He came back this afternoon.

[Chi Cheng]

Jia Li, I took Dou Dou
out for a while.

I can't believe Chi Cheng.

I'll go get my grandson now.

That's enough. Don't go.

You always fight
when you see each other.

You might scare the kid again.

I'll go.

It's fine.

I'll go.

You fell asleep.

You're home.

I brought you a present.

A present? What is it?

He's so cute.

Where did you get him?

Don't touch me.

I love you so much.

What can I do?

Knock it off.

What does that mean?

He said,

"Stop that."

- Really?
- Yes.

Let's go. I'll show you
a magic trick, okay?

You've never
seen this before, right?

Come on, take a look.

Which one do you like?

That little deer.

Okay.

Here you go.

Take it.

What else do you want?

- That gourd.
- Okay.

Here you go.

- You're quite greedy.
- Whatever you like,

I'll give them all to you.

That's because you're so cute,

Dou Dou.

Try and see if it's sweet.

It's sweet, right?

Yes.

You're so cute.

Dou Dou.

Come home with me, okay?

I want to play with Aunt.

Aunt?

Dou Dou.

Go home with your mom.

The next time
your uncle and I visit you,

we'll bring you
a lot of sugar figures, okay?

You can eat them all at once.

Okay.

Be good and go home.

Let's go. Come home with me.

Come on.

- Let's go.
- See you next time, Dou Dou.

Bye!

Dad, it's so late.
Why are you still up?

Where's Dou Dou?

He's asleep.

Chi Cheng didn't come back with you?

No.

Have a seat.

Let's talk about your brother.

Is he still living with that kid?

Dad, I think
it's Chi Cheng's right...

to choose the kind
of partner he wants.

Your forceful interference
is a bit disrespectful to him.

I don't respect him?

Does he respect me?

I have to put up
with strange looks from people.

I can't even hold my head up
in front of others.

I think those people
have nothing better to do.

What do other people's
relationships have to do with them?

Society is becoming
more and more open-minded now.

Why don't you try
to change your perspective?

That's enough.

I'm going to rest.

Your mom and I
didn't raise you and your brother...

just to get a slap on our faces...

when we get old.

- What?
- It's raining.

- Hold on.
- Here.

Someone reported Chi Cheng's company
for tax evasion.

He was just taken away.

He needs to cooperate
with the investigation.

Could there be a misunderstanding?

Why would Chi Cheng do such a thing?

Where's the evidence?

Mom, don't be anxious first.

Please ask for more details, okay?

I told you,
his company is unreliable.

What can that rascal do?

And Wu Suo Wei is always so stingy.

He must have cooked the books,
embezzled taxes,

and gotten my son into trouble.

My right eyelid is twitching.

It's probably a sign of wealth.

Hello?

Da Wei, I have something
to tell you.

Chi Cheng was taken
to the police station.

What?

Don't worry too much.

He's just cooperating
with the investigation.

Maybe in the end,
it's just nothing, right?

He was taken away.
How can it be for nothing?

This won't do.
I'll go to the office now.

- Take a look at this.
- This one.

This one is fine too.

They're all here.

- There's no problem.
- Look at this one again.

Look at the next one.

These are fine too.

- I'll check again.
- Take this over there.

Ma'am, take a look.

Mr. Chi and our Finance Director
are counting on you.

We can't rush it. We have to check
the accounts one by one.

Give me some time.

Why are some tax returns
a bit different...

from what I did before?

It's different? How is it different?

I don't know either.
I didn't do this one.

But our tax system requires
a password to log in.

Who did you give
the account password to?

I...

I didn't give it to anyone.

One time, when I was doing
the taxes, Mr. Lin came by.

But isn't he in charge of sales?

He wouldn't know about this.

Mr. Lin?

I remember his resume stated...

that he minored
in Accounting in college.

Where is he? Get him here.

Mr. Lin is on leave today.

On leave?

[Prison and detention center food]

That's enough.

Have some water first.

Drink some water.

Tell me.

If he's really convicted,

will he have to stay in there
for three to five years?

How can he endure that?

Cheng Yu.

You have connections.
Help me ask around.

See if you can...

arrange for me to meet him.

You two are partners in the company.

So for now,

you can't meet.

This is too fishy.

Don't worry.

I've already sent someone
to investigate this.

I've also hired a lawyer...

for Chi Cheng.

So don't worry.

Do you think...

he's eating well in there?

Is he sleeping well in there?

Don't worry about it.

- Don't worry.
- Don't worry.

[Prison Cell]



Come on.

Get up and eat.

Humans need food.

You have to eat.

Tomorrow, the lawyer
you hired is coming.

Get up.

The food is good today.

Here.

How is it? Any news?

We got it.

They say the mastermind
is someone named Wang Zhen Long.

Do you know him?

[Bonus Clip]

I'm scared.

Don't be scared. I'm here.

I'm with you.

It'll get better later. Just watch.

- What's wrong?
- Just now, a ghost touched me.

There's no ghost.

I'm here. I can protect you.

It's really nice towards the end.

Trust me. Watch it.

Da Wei!

What are you doing?

I didn't want...

to interrupt you two.
