You’re back? Why are you at my place again? You’re a Deputy Editor-in-Chief, yet there’s not even a bite to eat at home. I feel so uncomfortable at your place. What do you want? Coming back so late – Went on a date? Give me back my room key. You just returned to the country. How well do you even know this girlfriend of yours? Rushing into a relationship like this. None of your business. Deputy Editor-in-Chief, I’m being completely sincere. I want to speak from the heart and have a real talk with you. Ever heard of “seeing is believing”? I don’t have time for your nonsense. Even that phrase might not be trustworthy. I’m calling security. In this world, you can’t just rely on your eyes. You need to follow your heart. Listen to your heart. Understand? So what exactly are you trying to say? I do have something to say, but I haven’t figured it out yet. I’m not sure if I should be the one to say it. The main reason I came to see you is because I really can’t say it to those two people. Ultimately, everything started because of you. Looking at you, you’re the root cause, but you also seem innocent. Let’s leave it at that. When I figure it out, I’ll come back. Don’t rush into a relationship. You don’t even know her full name yet. Where does this confidence come from to be so lovey-dovey? Huizhen, let’s have dinner together tonight. Sure. After dinner, let’s watch a movie. There’s one I really want to see, and it’s leaving theaters tomorrow. Breakfast? Sure. Who were you talking to? My boyfriend. So early in the morning. Hello? Huizhen. Hello? Is the signal that bad? Hi, I’m Xia Qiao’s friend. Let’s have dinner together sometime. Zhen’er, don’t be like this. We just got together. You’re ruining our relationship. You know that? What do you mean “just started”? Hello, we live together. Zhen’er, I’m so hungry. Let’s have breakfast. Stop calling. Our Qiao’er is hungry. So sweet this early in the morning. Bye. 8646. What a coincidence. Some things can’t be said clearly over the phone. I had to tell you in person. Listen carefully. It might sound harsh, but no matter how bad it sounds, you need to hear every single word clearly. Didn’t I tell you before to seize the moment and be brave? I take it all back now. Forget all of it. Don’t listen to it. But I think it was good advice. It’s because I listened to you that I found the courage to confess to him. And he accepted my confession. I even wanted to thank you. Wait, what did you say? He accepted your confession? Yes. You—you need to give me—quick, hurry up! What are you doing? You can’t accept this! Wait, I need to take this call. Hello? Okay, okay, I’ll be right there. I have an emergency. I have to go. I’ll treat you to dinner another time. I wasn’t finished talking! Bye, bye, bye! Oh no, oh no, oh no. This time Huizhen got into big trouble Why do all the unlucky things happen to Huizhen Haven’t seen you for days Your hair has grown back Yimu Everyone, come here What’s the matter, Sister Zhu Ying? This is our new layout for next season But we have two designs Really can’t figure it out Which do you prefer? Option A follows our traditional style It’s a safe choice But Option B feels more fresh and innovative Both are good options This is too difficult Which do you prefer? I think… Both are great, it’s hard to decide Good morning, my little flowers Editor-in-Chief Your Editor-in-Chief has arrived Chief, we need help! What’s the problem? This is for the upcoming issue This homepage We can’t decide which to use A or B? It’s simple Now everyone close your eyes Close them tight Imagine you’re in a bumpy carriage Hungry and cold Freezing and starving On a dark and stormy night You feel the carriage jolting and bouncing Suddenly some food rolls out of the carriage Tell me honestly what food would you hope for Roast chicken or steak? Chicken! Chicken! Both chicken and steak! How greedy! Now turn around Tell me directly: A or B? Quick! BAA! Correct Option A Know why? Sometimes our hearts choose A But your mouth says B While your heart thinks B But your mouth says A Why? Because there are too many factors affecting us that prevent us from seeing our true feelings In such moments just follow your heart Your intuition will tell you what you truly feel deep inside Understand? Got it Great! Excellent! What did you choose? I chose A! A! AAAA! How about you? Same here Then it’s decided You’ve all been working hard I’ll treat everyone to supper tonight Who’s coming? Count me in! Then let’s go Let’s go I can’t make it today Okay, maybe next time Han Xue I haven’t finished yet If you finish and still want to eat meet me at our usual place Yimu Yimu, are you coming? Not today I still have an article to finish Need to work overtime The laziest person is now working overtime? Is the sun rising from the west? You guys go ahead Enjoy your meal Will do! Huizhen Coming? I’ll pass, bye! I’ll treat you next time Bye Xiaoxue I found this place online looks really good Let’s go tonight for dinner You need to return props? Another time then No worries I can return them tomorrow Let’s go then. Alright then. Wait for me then. I’ll just grab my bag and come. Okay, I’ll go first. Huizhen. Can you help me later return a prop? It’s near the company. I’ll send you the address. Got it. No problem, bye. Thanks for your hard work. Give them all to me. No need, no need. It’s fine. Big brother helping little sister carry some things. What do you mean “it’s fine”? Don’t call yourself “big brother”. Every time you say “big brother” my heart panics. You’re definitely up to no good. How can you say that? My feelings for you are genuine. What “genuine”? Even though I often mess up with good intentions, but my feelings for Charlie are real. I’m begging you. Good work everyone. Hurry up, let’s go. Wait, wait a second. Tell me, is there anyone in this world who wears shoes like this? What’s wrong with wearing them like this? These shoes of mine can last a long time if you use strong glue. I just glued them earlier, but it didn’t hold properly. But why go through all that trouble? Why not just buy a new pair? Come on, I’ll carry you. No need, get on. What if there’s a nail ahead? Step on it and get tetanus. That’d cost more money! Worrying about such things, really… I’ll walk very carefully. Don’t worry. Come on. So slow… What’s wrong with a brother carrying his sister? Isn’t it perfectly normal? Are you shy? Why would I be shy? Still saying you’re not shy. If you really want to help, untie your shoelace. I’ll tie it and we can go. Hurry up and help, will you? Your approach is quite unique. Isn’t this just wasting time? Such a waste. Farting in such a crowded place? I didn’t fart. I smell something. There was a sound just now. Hey, come here for a second. Stop making me do these things. Check if it’s ripped. So embarrassing! What’s ripped? Where exactly should I look? It’s really torn. Your underwear… Black underwear. Come on, hurry up! Get up here quick! Cover for me. Why do you need to carry me? You… just do it yourself. Hurry up Just to cover my underwear? Hurry up, hurry up! This is my second request. I’m begging you. Just let me carry you. To cover my underwear. Basically you just… need something to cover it, right? Here. You take one, I’ll take one. You take it first. Got it. Your back against mine. We’ll go out like this. Slide, slide, slide over. Slide. Your right foot, my left foot. Slide outward. Now we can go. You’re full of ideas. Really. I’ve been through this many times, okay? Fine. Don’t make it obvious. Be quiet. Working late? Now you’re not embarrassed? You’re embarrassed when I carry you, but not like this? Stop talking. With all these people around, you’re spinning around? It’s crowded here, and you’re spinning? Not in a crowded place! Listen, you don’t understand my good intentions. If it weren’t for your prop… I’ve long since You should show some respect for this prop It’s for Eternal’s 20th anniversary cover prop Watch your words Anyway, you treat props better than me Hey Haoyu The movie’s about to start Why aren’t you here yet? Fine then Next time then Li Huizhen How long are you going to be busy? I’m wearing split pants right now waiting here with you It’s not like I asked you to come Didn’t you follow me here on your own? Who followed who? I just have some unfinished questions Let me ask you something Why do you have so many questions? Go ahead So recently I feel like my best friend is getting close to someone I like What should I do? Should I speak up and let everything blow up or just pretend I don’t know? You just love bullying people You’ve got a bad personality That’s why you keep running into these messy situations Look at me I’ve never had to deal with stuff like this You wouldn’t run into this kind of thing? Of course I wouldn’t My best friend is like family to me She’d never do anything to betray me And then there’s your Bai Haoyu He’s a good guy too He wouldn’t bully you That’s what you say Not what I said And secondly there’s my Qiao’er You’re obsessed with your Qiao’er Do you even know what your Qiao’er— What about Qiao’er? Why are you suddenly yelling? Seriously She’s hot Hurry up and introduce us I know you men Is she really that pretty? Look at the photos Everyone who sees her says that Like a fairy descending to earth Didn’t you just say you had someone you liked who got together with your best friend? What are you trying to do? You want to use Qiao’er as a backup? That’s impossible I won’t introduce her to you Don’t even think about hurting her I’m telling you Li Huizhen, you— get a clue, okay? She already has a boyfriend You didn’t even let me finish Her current boyfriend is a total heartthrob Top student, academic genius Handsome too You don’t stand a chance Just keep dreaming Stick to looking at photos Don’t get any ideas Thinking you can compete with him? Seriously And there’s an extra one A lipstick in the same color family Three different shades And she’s so pretty I, Lin Yimu, will unconditionally agree to three requests from Li Huizhen What are you doing? Nothing Just thought what you said earlier made sense And I’ve been too harsh on you before Making it up to you Why the sudden change? Are you sick or something? This is really funny And kind of unsettling What’s with this sudden— I’m deleting it, deleting, deleting, deleting Don’t delete, don’t delete, don’t delete Just leave it like this Don’t delete it Keep it Even though keeping it doesn’t really serve any purpose But you should still keep it Makes people feel a little better It’s pretty weird all of a sudden What, you want me to treat you to a meal? Or what? Acting like this It’s not like I ruined your pants You—you’re really making me— How is it not you who ruined my pants? You should’ve let me memorize it earlier Such a high-sounding excuse Don’t say any more And now you’re making me treat you to dinner Alright After selecting the location photos I’ll email them to you Deputy Editor-in-Chief This is your package And here’s soybean milk and fried dough sticks Plus the egg pancake you like And a sandwich No need I don’t have the habit of eating breakfast I have a document here Help me sign it Come Whose breakfast is this? Can I have it? This was bought by Li Huizhen Ask her if you want it Anything else? Give it to me Li Huizhen What did I tell you? I told you to be more careful Why don’t you listen? He just refused your breakfast And you’re this upset Walking around in a daze all day What if you confess to him someday And he rejects you? Have you thought about that? I haven’t thought about it But Bai Haoyu Wouldn’t be that heartless Why are you so stubborn? Won’t stop until you hit the wall, huh? Come here Long-lost fortune-telling candy Pick one Let’s see your luck My luck’s already like this anyway I’ll just grab one randomly That one Not bad Charlie This proves it Good fortune is coming your way Doesn’t matter Last time I got a sweet one too And got scolded badly by him This time is different from last time It really doesn’t matter No matter what How it ends Or what happens Along the way I’m already prepared I believe in Bai Haoyu Li Huizhen Remember this I’ll always be there for you When you’re unhappy or feeling wronged you must tell me Can I have all of these? They’re all yours Such a delicious breakfast Let me have it What a waste of Charlie’s thoughtfulness Zhu Ying, I’m leaving first Call me if you need anything Okay Old Bai left early today Is something wrong with him?

Give me your hand I told you before I’d get you an identical one But I couldn’t find it When I finally had time it was already sold out So I found a similar one It’s not exactly the same but I really like it Do you? Then I’m relieved Please get in my princess Where are we going? It’s a secret Get in quickly Let’s go Where is she? Who? Manager Xia Where is Manager Xia? She just left Left early again? Does everyone leave this early? If it’s urgent I can take a message Tell her Room 8646 is looking for her What’s this about? 8646 is the presidential suite Are rich people always this rude? Where can I buy this? Just up ahead Up ahead, thanks Proofreading modifications Li Huizhen Our Huizhen is in the magazine now Why is the name printed so small? Like an ant Send me this photo later I’ll edit it Our daughter is so accomplished Here, here, here Zoom in, zoom in Look Huizhen is going to be famous Yes Be careful Not there yet? We’re almost there Turn around Open your eyes Last time we had a date we couldn’t watch that movie This time it’s just for you A private screening Haoyu Actually you don’t have to do this for me Consider it my way of making it up to you For making you anxious and waiting For keeping our promise for so long From now on I’ll be the one protecting you How is it? Satisfied? You today seem different than usual Do I? Was I really that bad to you before? I’ll work even harder to make you happy What’s wrong? Not good? No, it looks great That movie was so touching I have a friend like that too Known each other since childhood Willing to do anything for you Forgiving you for everything That scene at the train station Don’t you think the train station part was especially moving? I was almost crying Train station It was good indeed You weren’t moved? Of course not Don’t you like this kind of movie? Of course not Watching a movie with you is very meaningful What do you want to do later? I know a place with excellent coffee Shall we go for coffee? Really? Of course Whatever you want to do or enjoy doing I’ll accompany you Great Let’s go Eric, right on time Not bad The apartment is nice too Just needs more seasonings I could’ve cooked better I meant to pick you up at the airport But the magazine was too busy So? I planned to take you out Eating out? You wouldn’t taste my cooking then Come on, let’s eat while we talk We’ll eat here Let’s go there Zhen’er I’m home What? Look carefully Examine this list of names Look Zhu Ying Lin Yimu Lin Hao Keep looking down Your colleagues? What’s at the bottom? Anything familiar? Li Huizhen A brand new you – your name My name? No way Zhen’er Your name’s on the cover! That’s fantastic This is incredible! My name finally appears in a global fashion magazine Inside the magazine My name is finally published Why return to China suddenly? An author at our publishing house is releasing a new book Need to start promotions early The Chinese market now is the top priority for Americans So they sent me first for a preliminary assessment I’m leaving the day after tomorrow. That’s such short notice. Yes, extremely tight schedule. How’s it going? What about you? You’re now at Eternal, with two Li Huizhens. How’s it going? I don’t even know now what exactly I’m doing. This is really the first time I’ve felt that in this world, besides seeing my name on my employee ID, And there’s something even more is seeing my name published in Eternal magazine. You know, at that moment I truly felt like the happiest person in the whole world. Is it really that exaggerated? Look, my name is right here. This feeling is truly unparalleled. If you don’t believe me, try this: just pretend this name is your own name and see how it feels. Alright, alright, let me look again. Seeing my own name in a globally top-tier fashion magazine – Li Huizhen. Right? Isn’t that the feeling? Got it. Zhen’er, are you still planning to confess to Bai Haoyu? Let’s analyze this situation. Look at you now – your career is improving, your name is in the magazine. If you confess to Bai Haoyu, and he gets angry, you might lose everything you’ve achieved so far. No way. Bai Haoyu isn’t that kind of person. Are you really willing to take that risk for him? First, I’m willing to trust him because I know Bai Haoyu keeps work and personal matters separate. I deceived him, so he’ll definitely be angry. But between people… If there’s deception then at most he would Leave me alone for a while Similarly if I didn’t deceive him but at work I wasn’t dedicated then he definitely wouldn’t go easy on me either So I believe in Bai Haoyu I’ll confess to him But you worked so hard to get this good job The pictorial adopted your suggestions Your name is in the magazine Your parents are so happy about what you’ve achieved right now Are you really willing to risk all this to confess to Bai Haoyu? Isn’t the current situation good? At work you and Bai Haoyu are getting closer Maybe in the near future you two can still become friends again like before If the magazine gets discontinued Bai Haoyu will return to America We’ll be separated just like over a decade ago I don’t want to have regrets And there’s this thing Tell me, am I going crazy? Every word, every action even the memories are exactly like Li Huizhen’s But she just isn’t my Li Huizhen That intern is really interesting Then why didn’t you reject the hotel manager Li Huizhen? Didn’t I tell you? Follow your heart How could I reject her? It was all for her In America, I missed her every single day Only recently did I realize she’s been silently keeping our promise Although she doesn’t remember she’s been guarding our childhood graffiti I go for a touch-up every year A girl could do all this for me Yet I never made any effort I did nothing If I reject her Wouldn’t I become a heartless man? A heartless man I know Li Huizhen’s story at the hotel is indeed touching But you never promised you’d marry her when you returned So your agreement with her has nothing to do with whether you’re heartless or not You don’t want to reject her now just because you can’t admit you might actually like her Trust me If you’re hesitating it means the one you love isn’t her Don’t casually try to repay past feelings Love can’t be forced Love should be wholehearted a complete pursuit and devotion If you have doubts even the slightest you should immediately stop and think Ask yourself why Is it because you’re incompatible? Or because you don’t love her enough? This is better for both of you No That’s not true I’ve never changed I’ve always believed that finding her would make everything perfect She’s the only one in my heart But she’s not her anymore Not her Right? Didn’t she say it herself? She’s no longer the person she was Only you’re still foolishly holding onto the past Li Huizhen Stubbornly insisting on coming back to fulfill that promise As if the world would end if you didn’t keep it It’s just your hero complex Li Huizhen has lived without you all these years I’m still living just fine Not any worse than others Is what I’m doing wrong? Who wouldn’t want to stay with their childhood sweetheart until they grow old? Hope is just hope But doesn’t your heart refuse now? Am I wrong? You clearly know now you’ve been forcing yourself all along and have been exhausted but you just won’t admit it What’s in your heart is another Li Huizhen Bai Haoyu, you being irresponsible to yourself is one thing but hotel manager Li Huizhen is also pitiful You don’t love her If you force yourself to be with her can you make her happy? Intern Li Huizhen is even more pitiful She doesn’t even know she’s been erased from the start by a childhood memory In your hero complex, Bai Haoyu she’s destined to be an overlooked person Can you not make the people you love so pitiful? In your world, the people you love can’t even get a supporting role but are just passersby who might disappear anytime? If you tell him, there are two possibilities First, he might forgive you You two have become But after two months, if Eternal gets discontinued, you two will still face the same separation as before Second, he won’t forgive you He might even get angry and fire you over this Then not only will you lose the chance to be his friend, but you’ll also lose such a great job Everything will return to how it was before you joined Eternal All the efforts you’ve made over this past month What does it all mean? Anyway, I think telling him now isn’t a wise decision Everything I think at least we should wait two more months Wait until Eternal’s matters are settled before telling him Do you really think if I speak up I’ll lose everything? Anyway, I think he won’t forgive you Then I’ll think about it more Think about it more After all, the worst case even if you lose everything you still have me, right? I’ll always be with you Stop worrying I’ve never seen anyone have such a tiring relationship This is just the start What will it be like later? But I still can’t bear to hurt Huizhen Do you know what’s called the courage to be disliked? Yes Every one of us needs the courage to be disliked Often the right thing causes short-term pain but is beneficial in the long run and correct So right now you might need that courage to be disliked to say some seemingly painful truths You should understand this You’re always so annoying how could you lack this courage? No matter what you must think clearly Cut the knot quickly Better short pain than long One more thing If I were you I’d definitely find out one thing which is why intern Li Huizhen looks so much like childhood friend Li Huizhen
