【Movie Version】Will she choose the one she loves, or the one who loves her?🔥| A Better Life | YOUKU
You’re Xue Xiaozhou from TSI? Yes. Please. Thanks. We offer law service for Puhui Culture and also help manage this bidding. Please tell us your TSI’s plan in 10 minutes. Feel free to use the white board if you need. I’ll pass on that. People before me must have made enough presentations. I believe you’ve known the benefits and even added cash value of various plans by now. Today, I just want to convey the meaning behind legacy. Tell us. What do you think is the most important of inheritance? Fortune? No. People. People change. So in our plan, we address eliminating risks people bring. Here. Thanks. Now turn to page… Please give us some private time. Linjiang is doing the dividing thing. I can’t decide for him. So you must’ve known Linjiang and Xiaozhou had a fight. In that way, it’ll be rude of me to ask for a favor. Recently, Xiaozhou told me how he thought. So I thought it might inspire your vendors. Tell me. What do you think is the most important of a family’s legacy? What? You dare to come? You want to threaten us with Ma Xiaowei? Don’t misunderstand. When I mentioned people with risks, I meant you. I assume everyone designed their plans based on you. To be frankly, you’re much better than Xiaowei. What about your kids? Kids after that? For example. If Xiaowei’s kids can better protect and even make better use of the fortune. Should we change the guardian? You’re saying my kids will be worse than Xiaowei’s? Kids of me and Ya will be incompetent? I didn’t say that. But, there’s a theory called social mean reversion. You heard of it? It means great parents tend to have average kids. Of course it’s just possible. But parents usually put high hopes on their kids. In our plan, Xiaowei is the biggest ticking bomb. We deduced a worst case. How is it? One’s fortune is as unpredictable as the weather. What if Linjiang… before you, childless? What to do with Xiaowei? Let’s take it even more extreme. What if Xiaowei’s the only one left? This is just an assumption. But you know better than us what Xiaowei is. Xiaozhou studied law. He tends to look at the bigger picture. This is his plan. If you find the time… Manli. Thank you for your reminder. I’ll ask my vendor to consider all the risks. Once a client, always my client. This is my principle. Sure. What did Zhonghua say? Nothing. Linjiang didn’t hit you, did he? Why would he do that? But I think I pissed him off. We’ve tried. Forget about the result. Xiaozhou, you’ve challenged yourself. Well done. OK, see you. You’ve lost weight since moving out. Seems without me watching over you, you can’t take care of yourself. I’m fine. How’s Baodan doing? Baodan’s doing great. Absolutely thriving. Let me tell you. At the very beginning Manli refused to keep Baodan. But later, Baodan won her over with sheer charm. Now everything – baths feeding, litter scooping, nail trimming, she’s more diligent than I am. There was this hilarious incident. Baodan scratched a corner of Manli’s sofa. So I pretended to scold it and hit it. Suddenly Manli came between us and scolded me instead, saying Baodan’s just a cat. It can’t control itself. Then I felt relieved. You only ask about Baodan. Don’t you care how I’m doing? Well… How are you? I’m not good. When I make another big deal with Manli and earn enough money, let’s rent another place near the hospital. Baodan needs its mother. I need you more. Ya? Xiaozhou. We’re over. Wait, is this some new prank? Xiaozhou, I’m serious. We’re over. Ya, what’s wrong? Did something bad happen at work? No. Did…did I do something to upset you? Is it because
I’ve been taking care of Mom and neglected your feelings? Or do you think I shouldn’t
live with Manli? No, Xiaozhou, we… Then why? It doesn’t matter. Anyway, from now on, take care of yourself. No, Ya, what’s really wrong? Ya. Is everything okay at work? Yeah. She was just awarded
department star recently. Why are you asking this? Nothing, I just noticed
she’s been looking tired lately. Wanted to share some of her workload You’re making me jealous. Thanks, Ms. Duan Ya. You… How did you get here? I came to see you Xiaozhou, we… We’ve already broken up. I know that. Don’t get me wrong. I came first of all to thank you. Thank you for taking care of my mom – I’m a doctor. – all this time. She’s a patient. Taking care of her is my duty. Director Kang is waiting for me. Ya, I’m trying. Director Kang’s group left first. We need to hurry. Xue Xiaozhou? You play tennis here? Mr. Ai. Wait… Ya, you two… You know him? Let me introduce you. Xue Xiaozhou. My old classmate. This is Ai Linjiang. Her boyfriend. What a coincidence. Xue Xiaozhou is my insurance agent. Should’ve told me
you’re my girlfriend’s classmate. Plenty of deals for you later. You’re so careless. You forgot the bag you just bought. I’m off. Goodbye. Ya. What a coincidence to run into your old classmate. He’s not an old flame, is he? Xiaozhou is my ex-boyfriend. I didn’t expect you two would know each other. Ex-boyfriend? Then why did he come see you today? Don’t tell me
you’re still emotionally attached. You knew I had a boyfriend
when pursuing me. And when I decided to be with you, I made it very clear I would break it off with him. I’ve never hidden anything from you. I’m asking you, why did he come see you today? His mother just passed away. He’s upset What? Feeling sorry? Stop the car. Get this straight. You’re my girlfriend now. Can you tell him to get the hell away? Stop the car! Stop the car! [Hu Manli] Hey, Manli. Mr. Ai. When are you free? Xiaozhou and I want to buy you dinner. You and Xiaozhou? How about tonight? No time like the present. You’re free tonight? Great! What time and where? I’ll text you later. Okay. I’ll wait for your message then. See you tonight. Xue Xiaozhou. Cherry foie gras. Wild yellow croaker. Snowflake beef cubes. Any fresh Australian lobster today? Yes, we do. Get me one. That’s all for now. [Keep you clothes clean.
Refund it after dinner.] What’s up? Let’s drink? No, I can’t. Got work to do tonight. Come on, just a drink. Actually, I have great news today to share it with you. Really? My girlfriend said yes to my proposal. Congratulations! I heard from your father about it. He said you had a girlfriend. But I didn’t expect a wedding so soon. Quite efficient, I must say. Who’s the lucky girl? We haven’t known each other long. She’s a doctor. Doctors are great. Xue… You… Doctors are good, really good. Congrats, Mr. Ai. Steamed yellow croaker
with yellow wine foam. Cherry foie gras. Jade jellyfish with sakura shrimp. Australian lobster baked
with sesame sauce. Enjoy. Thank you. Mr. Ai. Let me toast you. I’m so happy for you. Actually I’ve been pursuing her for quite a while. She only agreed to be my girlfriend last month. Though we haven’t been together long, she believes I’m a man she can entrust her life to. So it’s a flash marriage then. How decisive. Xiaozhou. Raise our glasses. Toast to Mr. Ai. Come on. That’s so rude! I’m genuinely happy for you. Thank you. But mostly I’m worried. Marriage is a life-changing event. Don’t ruin everything over some petty competitive urge. It harms everyone. What are you talking about? Manli. I think Xiaozhou is right. Thank you for that. But what we have isn’t about competition. Ours is true love. Of course, objectively speaking, she has many suitors. I am indeed a winner. How should I put it? In the real world, everything is competition. There’s no avoiding it. Victory and defeat are common in battle. Don’t take it to heart. Right, Xiaozhou? Here. To you. [What’s wrong with you?
Don’t offend our client.] [He didn’t do anything to you.] Mr. Ai, here. A toast to you. Today’s dinner is to show Xiaozhou and my sincerity. Compared to those professional trust companies
and private banks, it’s true, our qualifications aren’t as impressive. But when it comes to
knowing your family, I’d say no one can match me. So Xiaozhou and I want to compete for this bidding. Mr. Ai, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Manli. We’ve known each other for a while. I certainly trust you on this. It’s just your colleague here. Xiaozhou, are you qualified to bid? Yes, absolutely. Let me introduce… I’d like to hear it from him. You want to compete. With what? Capability matters. But it’s not just about money. A person’s character is the real core competency. Everything you said
is correct but useless. You want my business now. You need my help. Then act like someone
who’s asking for help. Right? Here, allow me. I’ll drink for Xiaozhou. Bottoms up, as you wish. Mr. Ai, please have a seat. Let me be frank with you. Xiaozhou was rude today and upset you. There’s a reason for that. He’s been through a lot lately. Right? He’s still adjusting mentally. Show some understanding. Okay? Then tell me. What happened to you? Oh my. Forget it. Nothing good anyway. It’s getting late. Let’s call it a night, alright? Manli says it’s over, then it’s over. Waiter. The bill please. Come on, I’ll pay. Let me. Bill please. We…we’ll pay I’ll pay. I…we… – We’ll pay. – Let me. I’ll pay. – Alright, I… – No. – No. – We agreed before dinner. This meal is on us. Xue Xiaozhou. I’m a shareholder here. No need for you to compete. Then I insist. What’s there to compete? You’re drunk. I’m paying! I’m not drunk! Ai Linjiang, I’m sober. Today I’m competing with you! You’re just an insurance salesman! What makes you think you can compete? Why fighting? No! Call security! Hurry, call security! Stop! No fighting! Compete? No! Stop it! Stop fighting! No! Pull them apart! Separate them! Listen, Ya is my girlfriend! Stop bothering her! What do you mean? Trying to steal my woman? If it weren’t for me giving you business, you couldn’t even afford food! How dare you challenge me here? Stop! Stop fighting already! Sit down! Xue Xiaozhou. Look at yourself now. You’re just a loser! What did you call him? Manli This is between him and me. None of your business. It is my business! He’s like a brother to me. Insulting him is insulting me. I don’t know what happened between you two. But I’m telling you, he’s no loser. His mother got sick. He quit school
to care for her for three years. You’re richer than him. But that doesn’t give you the right to humiliate him. We ate this meal with anxiety. It was expensive indeed. But every penny spent today was earned by his own hands. Let’s go! Linjiang, it’s been long. A small gift. Do take it. Manli. Thanks. Sit. Your mom passed away so suddenly. I called your dad. He’s in health care center, right? Yes. My parents have supported each other. Now Mom’s gone. My dad must feel bad. He does. The center is nice. He should get some rest there. That’s good. I don’t think you should live long. You must live happily. Ke Ming was lucky to have a good husband and a talented son like you. No regrets. I would kill for such luck like hers. Thank you, Manli, for your kindness. I don’t drink. Didn’t you know? It’s not liquor. Medicine. Can’t get it anywhere else. From one of my connections. Mr. Ai. There’s a small change about my work. Thought you should know. Changed your job? Where to? Secret. When I settle down, I’ll tell you ASAP. OK. Keep in touch. I sure will. We’ve known each other so long. I would come to you if anything’s up. When I first met you, you were just 20. Back then… Hey, you, stop. Where are you going? I made an appointment. You can’t go in there. I called. Sir, please leave. You can’t go in. Who are you? I made an appointment. Sorry. Be right back. It’s OK. Leave. Five minutes. No. My boss isn’t available. We’ll call the police. Please leave. Sorry. What’s wrong? I’m um… Mr. Ai. He wanted to go up. He slipped in when we were away. From some insurance firm. He just won’t go. Mr. Ai, hello. I am a broker from TSI. Get off me. It’s OK. We TSI have various products. Come to me if there’s need. We are different from others. We… Hold it there. Yes. TSI? You know it? Never heard of it. That’s the problem. Tough Shields… I’ve worked in this business for nearly 20 years. Never heard of it. What Shields? You mean… Are you working with an artist lately? Spy! I’m not! Not a spy. I know her. She’s Hu Manli. We were colleagues. Smart. I left my info at front desk, everything. Mr. Ai. Does everyone remember others’ personal info? No… Something’s off. I’m not… You done? Security. – TSI…
– Security! Google it! It’s real. I’m a… Hu Manli, how could you? Move. Despicable. I’m not a bad guy. I can walk on my own. Five. Xiaozhou. I’m moving into the hospital dormitory. Since our lease
is about to expire anyway, I was thinking we could switch to a smaller place. No, you…you don’t have to. It’s not like I’m being considerate. It’s just my department… What about it? You know how my
overtime keeps increasing. My daily commute takes 1-2 hours, and traffic jams make it unpredictable. Several times, I was late for morning rounds. The director didn’t look happy. Should we maybe move closer to the hospital? The director suggested it to me. Said there’s an available bed and asked me to consider it. I can’t play dumb, can I? I see… It’s way over eight seconds. Eat it. Overcooked? Let me make you a fresh one. Here. Eight. Why do I feel like I’m being abandoned? Exactly. I’m climbing the social ladder
and dumping you. Don’t you dare be so dramatic. You can’t joke about such things. Don’t scare me. Just kidding. Here, it’s ready. Have something light. Dad. During my trip to France, I met some young contemporary artists. They’re quite interested in entering the Chinese market. So, my initial plan is maybe after this June, I’ll get their representative works and see if we can organize an exhibition. Good. You handle it. Dad. Any instructions? What should I do first? No special instructions. The company affairs are yours now. You make the decisions. Thanks, Dad. I’ll get back to work. Everything alright? Yes. Dad. Why is one of Qin’s paintings missing? You put it away? I, I thought I could put up another painting for a change of mood. Oh. In that case, I can take it back for you. The preservation conditions here might not meet the requirements. It’s perfectly safe here. I’ll have someone hang it
in the bedroom this afternoon. I’m right here. Why ask someone else? I’ll do it. I need to take a nap. Off you go. Sure, Dad. Okay. Who are you? Hey! I’m talking to you! Hey! Mr. Ai. Stop right there. Who are you? Dad, you know him? Sorry, this is a private club. Hey, Mr. Ai, are we in the wrong place? Get out! Hey, look! What? Do we two look alike? No. Yes. Man, it’s unbelievable! You’re just like twins. What are you doing? Dad. You know him? The three days aren’t up yet. Why are here? Three million is too little. Then how much do you want? How much can he get? I want the same. What did you say? Dad, who is he? Okay, you can leave for now. Hey, Dad. Your son’s talking to you. I said leave. Go. Alright? Dad. Dad, who is he really? Tell him. Having another brother is a good thing. If you keep talking. I’ll make sure you get nothing. You hear me? Leave. No, wait. I said get out! No. Well. You won’t talk? Then I will. Your dad is my dad too. Ma Xiao… After college, he was assigned to the cultural center
in my mom’s hometown. He dated my mom. – Ma Xiaowei. -She then had me! Don’t listen… Later your mom – Don’t listen. – went painting. Don’t listen to him. When our dad saw your grandpa had power and influence, – he wanted the big city! – Ma Xiaowei! – Ma Xiaowei! – Then later, he abandoned my mom! Ma Xiaowei! Ridiculous right? Get out now! Out! Is what he said true? Let me explain okay? -Let me explain. -Dad, Dad. Okay? Since my brother is here today, let’s lay all cards on the table. Why does he get to live large, while my mom just gets
a few thousands yearly? You kept in touch with them. You maintained contact. You gave them money. How could you do this to my mom? Hey, man. There’s an order to everything. Shut up! My mom was his first love. It’s unforgettable. Shut up! I… I… I never betrayed your mother. Let me explain. Okay? Dad. You kept the communication. Is it because you can’t forget that woman? No, I never… No. Ai Zhonghua. How could you do this to my mom? How could you do this to me? Linjiang. It’s not what you think. – All these years were just an act?
– No. So you had another family outside? It’s not what you think. I can’t stand this anymore. Linjiang. Dad! Dad! Dad! – Don’t go. I’m here. – Linjiang. – I’ll take care of you. – Linjiang! Give me a bigger share of the money. – You’re… – Let go! Mr. Ai! Mr. Ai! I didn’t do anything. Help! We need help here! Mr. Ai! Mr. Ai! Let me ask you. If the old man dies now, can I still get half the estate? Yes. I already checked for you. As long as there’s no will, it’s 50-50 split. Really? Are you sure? Suspected heart attack. Nearest green channel center is about 1km away. Call 120! Quick! Man, call 120! Heart relief pills! Mr. Ai! Mr. Ai! Your father had a heart attack. He’s in the hospital now. What kind of trick is this? A sympathy play? Save it. No, I-I-I’m not lying! You can call Chen to confirm it yourself. I’ll arrange the best doctors for his treatment. I’ll fulfill all my obligations, but that’s all between us. – Hello? – No, Mr. Ai, Are you the owner of car 0081? Here, come here. It’s okay, I’ll take him. I’ll cancel the order. Thanks, thank you. Xue Xiaozhou! What your father needs now
isn’t a doctor! I’m sorry. You… your father… I know exactly what he wants. But many things require reciprocity. He never gave it to me. How could I give it to him? You simply don’t understand! You’re completely trapped in
your own imagination! If you don’t go to the hospital tonight and don’t sign those papers, your father might… You’ll never get to hear his explanation. I know this feeling. My father called for me before he died. I… I didn’t go. To this day, I still live with that pain. Your father… Do you want to hear my story? Okay… I understand. Xiaozhou found Mr. Linjiang. He refuses to come back. Doctor. Who’s Ai Zhonghua’s family? Me! I’m his son! Sign the critical condition notice. Critical condition notice… My dad’s condition is critical? No. We still need to treat the patient. This is an unexpected incident notice, meaning we should prepare ourselves. Doctor, I’m the patient’s subordinate. I’d like to know Mr. Ai’s current condition. The patient is currently stable with standard treatment. If all goes well, he should wake up tomorrow. The prognosis is quite optimistic. That’s good. Dude. Dude. You can’t sign this document Why? Why? Only when the old man is gone can we get half the inheritance. How can you say that? He’s my biological father! Exactly. Did he ever treat you as his son? If he wakes up, forget half the inheritance. You might lose even the original three million. Xiaowei, three… three million? Ma Xiaowei. Sign it now. The doctor said Mr. Ai will wake up tomorrow. Three million! Don’t. You can’t sign it. Are you sure? I won’t sign. You crappy notice says you’re not responsible for anything. What if you kill my dad? Exactly. It’s just a formality. Then guarantee you can cure him. How can I guarantee that? See? He can’t guarantee. Right, I think your hospital just wants my dad’s money. We’re going home! Let’s go home. Ma Xiaowei! Are you trying to kill Mr. Ai? What are you saying? He’s your boss’s real son! You dare drive us away? Hear that? Xiaowei says no treatment. Right. Find someone! Get Mr. Ai discharged! Doctor. Can you treat him first? Family will sign when they arrive. Well… It’s a matter of life and death. Doctor, let me tell you. You can’t treat recklessly. If anything goes wrong, you’ll be held responsible. Right. Ma Xiaowei, you bastard! What are you doing? Hit me? Stop it! What are you all doing? Stop arguing! Quiet! This is a hospital! Don’t fight! Stop fighting! What’s all the noise? What are you doing? No fighting! Doctor, I’ll sign. I’m Ai Zhonghua’s son. What are you doing? Why are you here? I’m signing it. Go back. What are you doing? How dare you come here? What are you doing? My dad became like this because of you! And now you come to sign this thing. I think you’re
deliberately trying to kill him! Right. I did this to him? Ma Xiaowei,
we’ll settle our score later! Right now I’m here to sign this! No way! Sign it, I dare you. Listen up everyone Nobody harms my father. I’ll stand guard here today. If I say no treatment, then no treatment. Exactly. Stop it! This is a hospital! We won’t tolerate your nonsense! Family disputes, is it? Take it outside! Let me tell you. Now is the critical recovery period. Miss this window, you face the consequences! Move aside! This is ridiculous! What? What now? Bring it on. Mr. Ai, calm down! Wanna fight? Calm down, Mr. Ai. Ma Xiaowei. You’d better pray that Mr. Ai can wake up. What do you mean by that? He’s my biological father Of course I want him healthy. And safe and sound. No, you don’t. You want something bad to happen, so you can get half the fortune. You… you… Don’t talk nonsense. That’s your assumption. I never meant that! Your clever scheme isn’t wrong. But if things really come to that point. You’ll need to prove your relation
with Mr. Ai. Right? What will you need? A DNA test. To run a DNA test, you need Mr. Ai Linjiang’s approval. If he disagrees, you can’t get tested. Listen, don’t try to scare me. You’re his man. You side with him. I graduated from law school. If you don’t believe me, we can make a bet to see if I’m telling the truth. You’d better pray Mr. Ai stays safe. And in good health When he’s awake, he might still spare you some change for your mother’s sake. Otherwise, you won’t get a single cent. Xiaowei. Alright. Sign if you want to. Do whatever you please. But let me make this clear. If anything happens to my father, I won’t let you off the hook. Let’s go! Just you wait! Call the doctor! We’ll sign. Okay. It’s already dawn. How did you finally convince
Ai Linjiang? I’ll never know what my father wanted to tell me
before he died. Even just an “I’m sorry” or calling me “son” once. I might not have suffered this much. Mr. Ai. Don’t you want to hear your father tell you the truth himself? Your story is moving, but it doesn’t move me. The truth is already clear. My father, for all these years, has kept ties with his first love, even with shady dealings I didn’t know about. What if he maintained contact out of responsibility? Don’t speak for him. I’m not speaking for him. When I first heard Mr. Ai’s story, I thought it was fake too. I thought he made it up. It thought it was to
make excuses for himself. I was furious too. But I’m just an outsider. I know nothing. Only you know whether he played
the perfect husband and father for 30 years, or he genuinely cared for you both. Only you know the truth, Mr. Ai. Let me ask you. What if it’s really as I suspect? Then go hear his confession. Even the most wicked villain deserves the right to repent. Seriously, Mr. Ai, don’t end up like me. In the days to come, you’ll keep thinking over and over about the days you spent together. Were they real or just fake? Take my advice. Go to the hospital. Listen to Mr. Ai. Let him explain. Don’t regret it for life. Linjiang. Dad. What I want to tell you is, back then, because I was too ambitious, I chose your mom. But all these years I’ve only felt guilty toward Ma Xiaowei. I’ve never done anything to betray your mom. Trust me. Dad, don’t talk about this. When you were in the ICU, I already figured it out. What happened doesn’t matter. Only your health matters. Let bygones be bygones. Your meds. Come in. Mr. Ai, it’s us. You can sit up already? That’s great. Let me take my medicine. Take it easy. Thank you for visiting me. We’re relieved you’re okay. Chen told me what you did during my coma these days. I really appreciate your help. And you too, young man. I should thank you as well. My pleasure. Don’t dwell on it, it’s all over now. Focus on recovering. Surviving disaster brings blessings. Blessings? Blessings my foot! Even my own son wanted me dead. Where are those blessings? How can people be so vicious? Dad, stop thinking about this. I’ll handle his situation. Dad! Dad! Dad! Why are you here? I came to see my dad! Dad! Step aside! You can’t go in! Why are you here? Stop! This is a hospital. – I came to… – Get out! Let me apologize to Dad! Dad! No need. What I did was too extreme! I had no choice, Dad! Please listen to me! Dad, are you abandoning me? Dad! – Stop shouting. – Dad! Linjiang… Linjiang. Dad… Let him in. Dad… Are you okay? Dad… Dad… I was wrong, Dad. It was all my so-called friends who gave me the idea. I saw you unconscious then. I was… I was panicking. I just… I just… You wanted me dead, didn’t you? No! Dad, I’m sorry. Dad, I’m a bastard! I’m sorry! I’m an animal! Please forgive me, Dad. Okay, stop hitting yourself. You should leave now, go. Dad… Dad… I’m terrified of poverty, Dad. We were truly destitute. Mom cut ties with her family long ago. She worked any job she could find just to raise me, Dad. Dad, it’s true! Ma Xiaowei, stop playing the victim. If your mother knew you could do something like this, she’d regret ever giving birth to you, Alright. Xiaowei, you should leave now. If anything comes up later, Chen will handle it. Go. Go. Dad… Dad… Look. Mom kept this photo under the pillow. Look at it, just look. If Mom knew you wouldn’t take care of me, she’d die with regrets, Dad! Dad! Mom! Mom! Mom! Why did you even give birth to me? Why didn’t you take me with you
when you left? Why did you leave me to suffer in this world? Mom! Why? Enough! Mom, why? Just leave now, okay? Go. Mom! Go! That’s enough! We’ll talk again about what to do. Okay, we’ll talk later. Dad, you take care. Then I’ll wait for your call. I’m leaving now, Dad. Dad, I’m taking this photo. Dad, get well soon. Take good care of Dad. I’m leaving, I… Go. Dad… Dad… I’ll wait for your call. Get well soon. Get out! What a sin. It’s all my fault. Linjiang. I understand. His matter, I’ll handle it. Mr. Ai, you called us here but won’t speak. That annuity contract, let Ma Xiaowei sign it. No, absolutely not. No, Mr. Ai. Your father is soft-hearted. He wants his son to live comfortably. But have you ever considered if you do this you might actually harm that brother you just met. My father’s stance is already clear. Ma Xiaowei must have that money. If he’s content, I won’t object. The rest isn’t my concern. Your father provides funds, hoping Ma Xiaowei can live well. But if someone like him has money, what do you think will happen? That’s why Dad structured it
as an annuity. Only annual dividends,
no principal access. Living off dividends his whole life? How’s that different from
a worthless man? What’s that got to do with me? Mr. Ai. You might not like hearing this. However much you despise him, he shares your blood. If he’s really wasted, would your father be happy? If he causes trouble later, could the Ai family just ignore it? Manli. When he chooses self-destruction, I can’t control it. Nor can my dad. But insurance can manage it. What do you mean? Trust fund. Here. Right now, all insurance companies are lowering trust fund thresholds. We suggest instead of buying annuities, set up a trust for Ma Xiaowei. Simply put, it means every month, it gives him a fixed living allowance. I suggest this amount
needn’t be too much. It should just cover his basic monthly living needs. How’s this different from annuities? Quite different, actually. Trust funds can set certain payment trigger conditions. For example? The most important one I think is making sure Ma Xiaowei
keeps a decent job and obeys laws and rules. If he violates regulations, we can revoke his trust eligibility. Also, if major life events occur, like Ma Xiaowei getting married or having children, we can set up something to allow him withdraw
a certain amount of cash at once. But the key point is, Mr. Ai, you must retain the right to modify payment triggers. Wealth unearned brings disaster. The reason we’re doing this is to help Ma Xiaowei
stay on the right path. In the future, you and your father will avoid many troubles this way. Alright, let’s do it this way. You finished? That’s all. OK. Thanks. Coming right up. Mr. Ai, it’ll be my treat. Can’t let a girl pay. I’ll do it. No. I should thank you for your humidifiers. I never asked a girl out. Thought flowers won’t go wrong. Sorry about that. I asked my friends. They say docs are always washing hands. And it gets dry in winter. So I donated humidifiers. But don’t feel burdened. It’s for the hospital, not you. Folk there took good care of my mom during her last days. I really appreciate it. This is for you only. This is… That was thanks. This means goodwill. Mr. Ai. I speak what’s on my mind. Me too. Guess many girls like your present. Do you? They like you too. Why get the cold shoulder from me? Was that your boyfriend? I didn’t answer you. Affection is complicated. I like you for your looks, character, job, and loyalty you showed in your last relationship. Loyalty… Yes. I think if it were another girl, she might choose me over her poor ex instantly. But I’ll despise her. And you are not that kind of girl. What if I am? I don’t think so. I’ve decided to break up. For me? For I can’t see a future in him. Do you still think I’m worthy of you?
