EP35 | #SecondChanceRomance: First love turned mistress? A love mess with Wallace Chung & Qin Lan!
Siting, you’re here. You came at the right time. Come on. Sit. Have a drink with me. Go on, drink. No. Let’s sit down and have a talk. Okay. Sit down and talk. Sit and talk. Why did you do it? Why? You and Yuan both came in asking why. A million whys. Yuan, you told her? He didn’t. I didn’t need anyone to tell me. You’re the only one who knew all the details of what happened twelve years ago. You finally figured out it was me. Took you long enough. Shuhan, I really never expected this. We’ve been friends for years. I shared everything with you. And you did this to me. Why? Because I was jealous. Want to know when it started? Do you remember
at the Queen Ballet audition, what happened with your dance shoes? Feel it. Hands. Open. Good. Fingertips. Okay. Class is over. Tan Siting, you stay. I think it’s okay. Alright. Okay. Push back. Yes. [Tan Siting] How did your audition go? Probably didn’t get it. What happened? [Star House]
Someone tampered with my dance shoes. I’ve been jealous of you
since we were kids. I was jealous that you always had people around you
who liked you, praised you,
and even loved you unconditionally. And now I’m even more jealous of you! Why do you get to have everything? And me? My parents always thought I was useless. Now that I’m older, I’m just
a burden to Wang Zeyuan. I even messed up my relationship. Now I don’t even have a home! So just because your life is a mess, you want to drag mine down to your level? But I don’t believe it. We’ve been friends for years. I told you everything. You were there for me
during my hardest times. You talked with me, drank with me, and cried with me. Was all of that fake? Just because of jealousy, you destroyed a friend
who was like family? What good does this do, besides letting you vent? It does good. It’s money. You both know. Because I got scammed, Zu’s company has to pay a penalty. But I have nothing now. How am I supposed to
pay that money back? You get money for… slandering her? Gao Hui approached you? I went to her. Are you insane, Wang Shuhan? If you needed money, you could’ve come to me! I’d sell the company to get you the money! How could I, Yuan? You’re our parents’ golden child. You’re the pillar of our family. How could I let you sell the company to pay my debt? Did Zu pressure you to pay him back? No. It’s precisely because he didn’t that I have to pay this money back. You know? Since I was little, I felt no one truly loved me, cared about me, or even asked what I really wanted. All my past boyfriends either cheated me out of money or my feelings. Until I met Zu. I know his feelings for me are real. I know he genuinely cares for me. So in this world, the person I owe the most to is him. If I can’t pay back this money, I’d rather die. So, for Zu, you betrayed me? Not just this time. You know? I knew Le was your child
a long time ago. And twelve years ago, Le didn’t die. But I didn’t tell you. That was for money too. Wang Shuhan, you’re despicable. Am I despicable? Am I? Where do you think the money for your game company’s
first investment came from? Shuhan, can you keep this a secret for me now? Okay. I understand. Hello? Ms. Gao. That should be enough. Hurry. Sit down. Oh, only an hour for lunch break. You asked me out to eat. It takes 20 minutes to travel. So… We only have 40 minutes. So I ordered for you in advance. I got everything you wanted. Enough? Need to order more? No. Let’s start now! Sure? Enough for you? Sure. This is yours. Okay. One soup each. Why not have two? No, I don’t deserve it. You don’t deserve it. Alright, here. Still need to stay in shape? Of course. So particular. I have to teach my students. You have no idea how slim the girls at our school are. You’ve seen them. Have I? No? Yes. Tastes great. Here. I must speed up, or I’ll be late. Take your time. I’m used to it. Take it slow with the food. Your stomach’s on thin ice. Okay, Sir. It’s so delicious. No rush. I can drive you over later. It’ll take at most 20 minutes. I’ll definitely make it in 15. You’re faster than a DiDi driver? Of course. Are you sure? Let’s go. Wait, I bought you a coffee. You even thought of that. I worry you may embarrass your students as you may be sleepy in class like this. Your coffee. Thanks. I, um… Shuhan, why haven’t you answered me? My stomach has been off recently. Are you sick? I’m fine now. Everything is better. Look, I’m in good shape, right? I just dressed up. I’ll meet a friend for dinner. About to head out. By the way, how’s everything going? Going smoothly here. I think we’ll start the project in the East District in a few days. Once this is all over, let’s travel and relax. Sounds good. Where do you want to go? We can pack our bags and go. Anywhere will do. What’s wrong? Why do you look so unhappy? Are you mad at me? No, of course not. How could I be unhappy? Am I that kind of person? Definitely not. You’re my rock. Alright, I won’t keep you. You’ve got so much going on tomorrow. I’m in a rush to head out. Bye. Love you. Based on the latest data feedback from Sansan, only 3% of games in the market are paid, while the vast majority are free. They make users watch ads constantly. Mom. Yuan. Shuhan’s phone is turned off. Can you get in touch with her? She’s probably out with her boyfriend. Probably no signal. She’ll call you back. Don’t worry. Always wandering around all day, never letting us know in advance. Alright, I’ll hang up. The phone you’re calling is powered off. Go back and review it again. I need to take a call. Okay. Bye, Ms. Tan. Yuan. Siting. Is Shuhan with you? No. What’s wrong? Anything happened? Probably nothing serious. Don’t worry about it. If she contacts you, tell her to call me. No problem. Really, nothing’s wrong? Let’s find her first. good for women. Right. What about mine then? And mine is…? This is a dry red. Huacan’s shipment
should have arrived by now. Remind Duoji. Tell him to check it quickly. We need to ship it out soon. Okay. It’s pretty urgent. Got it. Mom. What time did you finish drinking
last night? I haven’t seen my old classmates
for a long time. We were having fun,
so I had a few more glasses. So the raw materials gap was filled by Mr. Wang from Huacan? Yes. You actually partnered with Huacan. How come you didn’t tell me about something this big? Should I tell you as your son or as your competitor? Alright. As long as it’s resolved. I just acquired a winery in Australia. They have a lot of experience producing Pinot Noir dry reds. I thought they’d be useful for the company’s long-term development. But it seems you need them more right now. At the very least, their expertise and brewing methods can help you speed up
the delivery of this Pinot Noir. I’ve already given them the heads-up. Are you listening? Yes. Thank you, Mom. I think it’s more appropriate for you to thank Tianlu as a competitor. Bye. Okay. You always struggle with this move. Alright. Repeat this move and that one a hundred times in a row. Otherwise, if Ms. Guan finds out, it’ll be a disaster. Okay. Yes, Madam. Alright. Head back now. Come again next time. Hey kid, who are you looking for? I’m looking for Ms. Tan. Ms. Tan Siting. You’re so young. How did you find this place
all by yourself? The teacher
at the training center told me. It didn’t seem far,
so I walked here myself. Impressive, right? No. That’s dangerous. Don’t do that again. I know. But you probably
won’t see me often from now on. I won’t be taking classes there anymore. Why? My grandma said I’m about to
start middle school, and I need to focus on my studies. How about we exchange contact info? Sure. Awesome. I’ll scan your code. Here. Done. Added you. Okay. That way, if you ever need anything,
you can reach out to me. And if I need anything,
I can contact you too. Ms. Tan, actually, I came today to share something with you. What is it? Beautiful, right? This is my mom. You always asked me why I love ballet. She was a ballet dancer too. Even though I’ve never met my mom, I carry her in my mind. She was the kind of person
who shone brightly. Dad secretly told me that my mom has turned into a swan. She went off to chase her dreams. But I know she’s passed away. Look, when she’s up on her toes, doesn’t she really look like a swan? After Dad gave me this photo, I’ve kept it safe ever since. All my classmates have moms. But for me, it’s always been either Grandma or Dad. And later, there was also Ms. Wen. But she’s not my mom. I never dare mention my mom at home. Because whenever I do, my grandma gets really upset. But when I’m sad, I secretly look at this photo. I just watch her dancing. Later, I started bringing it
to parents’ meetings and school events. I even brought it to my model airplane competitions. It makes me feel like she’s always with me. Over time, it became a habit. Really? Last time you said learning ballet requires sacrifice from a young age. Yeah. You have to endure the pain. So I was wondering if it hurt a lot and made my mom want to cry when she was practicing on her toes. But chasing dreams is always hard. So my mom must have struggled a lot. If she were here, I’d give her the biggest hug. Le. Do you like Ms. Wen? Then do you want her to be your mom? She’s marrying my dad, not me. Ms. Wen is really nice to me. And I like her very much. But she likes me because of my dad. I like her because of my dad too. So whether she becomes my mom is up to my dad. It doesn’t matter if I want her to be my mom. Have you been happy all these years without a mom? I think I’ve been pretty happy. But it’s not like I don’t have a mom. She’s just supporting me in a different way. I’m used to it. I love her so much. I never dare say any of this at home. But today I finally let it all out. Feels so good. Ms. Tan, apart from Tudou and Yang Zihuan, you’re the one
who knows my secrets best. I’m honored. Can you keep this conversation
between us? Of course. Secrets are meant to be kept. Alright. Head home now. Remember, don’t wander off alone like that again. Got it. Thanks, Ms. Tan. Bye. Bye. Bye. Maybe I shouldn’t fight for Le’s custody. I don’t want him to be unhappy. Or to lose his happiness. I’ll just stay in his life as a friend. Tan Siting, it’s time to move forward. Tan Siting’s the principal dancer
with Queen Ballet. Her persistence and passion for ballet are truly moving. It’s just like Cygne’s dedication and pursuit
of brewing techniques. Just imagine the classic ballet Swan Lake, with its graceful spins, paired with swirling wine in a glass. It’s a perfect visual and symbolic match. Mr. Feng, what do you think? Not bad. This is… This isn’t the final version, is it? Right. These are just some raw clips. I’m sure you’ll love the final version even more. Okay. Our partner this time is a China-chic stationery brand. They hope to
collaborate closely with us. The main focus will be
on co-branded merchandise. Plus online and offline activities targeting the K-12 demographic. This will also help expand our company’s brand influence. Xu has explained it very clearly. We always prioritize brands with positive values. Partnering with a stationery brand kids love could really benefit the games we’re about to launch. Shan, set up a meeting with their leader as soon as possible. You and Huai need to iron out all the details carefully. Yuan, we’ve already reached out. They’ll be visiting us here. Perfect. Huai, you’ll handle the reception. Got it. No problem. Xu, prepare a couple of our games. Alright. Contact Bao or me if any issues come up. Alright. Go, go. Everyone, go for it. Hey, Bao, could you help me check if any changes are needed? [China chic]
Let me see. [Ms. Zhuang]
Mr. Wang, we cordially invite you to our school tomorrow at 2 PM. We’ll be showing this year’s progress for investors and sponsors. Those who competed abroad. This is Yufan. And this is Huan. They’re both exceptional students. Recently, we’ve done a bunch of curriculum changes. We’ve worked
with some foreign music schools… She’s seven. Perfect age. Six to seven years old. And dance training should start young… You’ll see great things in the future. Mr. Wang, you might not know. But our school was built step by step hrough everyone’s collective effort. Now that you’re here, have you noticed
how things have changed here? It’s all thanks to your leadership,
Ms. Zhuang. Not really. A documentary crew is filming at the school. Let’s go and check it out later. – Really?
– Wonderful. Look at this girl. Yes. Not easy. I’ll snap one for you. Take a look. Alright. Yes. Come on. It’s a team effort. Actually, we currently… Are you that gentleman? The one who funded the art education school in Hongyuan County, Sichuan? Ms. Zhuang said you’d be here today. You are…? I’m Qu Zhen. Duoji told me… Yes. I asked him to deliver
the postcard to you. You look just like I imagined. So you’re Qu Zhen. I received your postcard. You came all this way from home to dance here. That’s incredible. I really should thank you. Keep it up. I will. Mr. Feng, could we get a photo together? Sure. Let’s take one. We currently have students… Like… Yufan. Yufan. Right. Zheng Yufan is preparing for the YGP Japan regional competition. Mr. Feng. Mr. Feng. So we’re definitely going to win awards. Mr. Feng, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Wang. That’s eloquent. Long time no see. You two know each other? Ms. Tan. This is Ms. Tan Siting. I suppose you’ve all admired her
for a long time. Let me introduce our sponsors. This is Mr. Wang. This is Mr. Zhang. This is Mr. Wang. You’re already familiar with him. This is Mr. Hu. And this is Mr. Feng. Ms. Zhuang, everyone’s here. Shall we take a group photo? Sure. Come on. All together. Step forward a bit. Mr. Feng, you’re tall and handsome. Stand in the middle. Alright. Come on. Right. Okay. Everyone, look over here. Come on. Three, two, one, okay. One more. Three, two, one. That’s good. – Thank you.
– Thank you. Let’s go. Okay. Everyone, please follow me to get a closer look at ballet and experience its charm. Right. Come on. They’re filming a documentary. Okay. Come on. Take a look. Steady your footing a bit more. Okay. Expression. Okay. Take a break now. Ms. Tan, be careful. Or getting into international business. You know, I really love this. It’s like half of my dream. Want to see? Si, new materials. If this works out… Pressure suits. Amazing! In the times we live in, whoever falls behind will get beaten. So you have to give it your all. In the future, man will migrate to space stations. Right! And migrate to Mars! For our nation’s dream
of space exploration! Space is a journey we must undertake. To spill our blood and devote ourselves without hesitation! Toast to that without hesitation. Come on, for immediate success. Come on, Feng Rui! Come on. I have to thank Rui. If he hadn’t turned it down back when we graduated, I wouldn’t have got
that hospital position. Don’t. Who knows where I’d have worked now? No. Don’t get into all this thanking. What’s meant to be yours will be yours. Had nothing to do with me. This might not be a big deal for you, but I can’t forget this kindness, right? Right. Don’t. Come on. Bottoms up. Finish it. Go on! I’m draining my glass. Take your time. But… Yeah. But then again, he’s got it the easiest. He’s his own boss. Free. That’s better than us. Well, let’s switch. Go back to how it was. You live my life, and I’ll live yours. Works for me. Stop joking, Feng Rui. With a big company and a large family business, now you can do whatever you desire. How great! Here’s the thing, Feng Rui wouldn’t have given up his space dream. But back then, his grandfather’s health was failing, so he… You have to remember, he was a scholarship winner every year. That’s right. A top student. Definitely a top student. So, you don’t know me. That my space dream was just wishful thinking. I was born for business. I love doing business. Well. Come on. Feng Rui, then I wish you great success! Please give me some. Alright. Come on! Let’s cheers! Come on. Raise your glasses! Come on. Feng Rui! To your great success! Come on. Ting, do you think wine is a good thing? What else is bothering you? I don’t know what it is. Let me tell you. Back when I was young, all I wanted was to be rich. I thought being rich was great, so I could buy any trendy bag I wanted, travel wherever I felt like, and date whoever I pleased. But now that I’m rich, I suddenly feel life is meaningless. During the years you were abroad, I haven’t had a true friend by my side. Have you thought about working? What could I do? Tell me what I can do. I’ve gained weight
since I stopped dancing. Not 5 kg, but 10 kg. Look, I don’t have a degree, and I’m not skilled at anything. To be a saleswoman again? No way. Over these years, I’ve got used to a comfortable life, so I can’t handle any hardship. Yuan was right about one thing. I’m ambitious but unskilled. Ting, as my good friend, tell me the truth. After all these years abroad, you didn’t date a boy? No. Not even that? No. Let’s drink. You’ve got some willpower. Right. You’re a successful artist and career woman. But let me tell you, no matter how beautiful you are, how great your figure is, or how rich you are, if you don’t get married and don’t have children, in the end, you’ll be lonely
and uncared for in old age. Do you know that? My child didn’t die. Who didn’t die? The child I thought dead 12 years ago, is alive. He’s been with Feng Rui. Feng Rui, you’ll marry soon. What do you feel? What’s there for me to say? It’s just what all of you’ve experienced. That’s completely different, okay? Come on. Let those of us who haven’t felt happiness in a long time feel your joy. Wu has been raising his child alone all these years, being both a father and a mother. It’s been tough. We thought he’d get married and have kids， but suddenly he became a dad. Wu, in this situation, you’re leading us. I’m leading you. The leader. Rui, I’ve always been curious. Back then, which beauty was so charming that she made you a father in a short time and a single dad? Tell us. Who was it? Yeah, spill it! Who was it? Hey, don’t bring up sensitive things! Liu is right. But the child’s mother is still around. She’s back. Who’s back? How would I know? Well. Look, Feng Rui, let us know when you get married. We’re all waiting for that day, aren’t we? We’re all waiting for it. Let me clink glasses with you. Well. And me. Let’s have a drink. Come on! You guys… Come on. Alright. You should drink. Boss, let me ask you. I heard some news from NASA again. You’re right. All these years, I’ve been all alone. For 12 years, it was work and more work every day. You know my father’s situation. Not a single piece of news. To put it bluntly, we don’t know if he’s alive or not. But when I found out Le was my son, I felt like I wasn’t alone anymore. I didn’t feel so lonely. I felt my life had a continuation. But you know what Gao Hui told me? ♪An old dream is like
a sheet of pure white at hand♪ When he was three, he got very sick. He had a fever for a long time. ♪Crumpled when held tight,
gone when you expand♪ I felt so incredibly sad. I’ve missed many moments when he was suffering like that. For these 12 years, mom has always been a void in Le’s heart. He must have asked himself… countless times why other kids have a mom, but he doesn’t. I hate Gao Hui. From the very beginning, she stripped me
of my right to be a mother. I also hate Feng Rui. All these years… he deceived me with Gao Hui. He didn’t even call me once. I also hate myself. I should have seen it with my own eyes back then. Whether the child was alive or dead, if I had insisted on seeing him, would things have been different now? If I tell Le I’m his mother now, will he hate me? Siting, how is the child doing now? He’s doing very well. You can tell Le is happy and joyful. Gao Hui and Feng Rui must be treating him very well. I believe he’s enjoyed plenty of family warmth. Siting, don’t be too sad. What matters is that he is doing well. And have you thought over these years, it’s been the best choice for the child to stay with Rui? ♪Who hasn’t wondered if their life
would stay blank and bare?♪ ♪Acting on impulse,
believing futures fair♪ Being with Feng Rui, ♪Don’t ask how to bury
faults of the past♪ all he misses is me, a mother. ♪All my waiting is just to accumulate♪ But if he were with me, ♪the colors of past and future♪ he’d have had just me. Yes. Do you know? I want to see him every day at his school gate, to see which classmates
he’s playing with and who his teachers are and to see if he is having a good time
every day. I don’t know what I should do to make up for these years. About the absence in his life, what should I do? ♪If we look back,
a lingering warmth stays♪ ♪In the dialogue
where time and space part ways♪ I think you’re doing a great job now. Come on, let’s drink. Drink up. All your worries will disappear. ♪This posture of steadfast faith♪ ♪Can’t hide the weathering
of wind and rain’s wraith♪ ♪Let the story settle
in the sea of faces♪ ♪Only then can the epilogue
leave its traces♪ ♪The gloom that lies ahead♪ ♪The light is shining from behind♪ ♪Every strand of dancing shadow♪ ♪Will weave the days to be♪ Peiyan, what are you doing here? Get in the car. I’ll take you home. Okay. Be careful. Thanks. Have some water. Drink more. Thank you. It’s rare to see you like this. You seem pretty drunk today. Anything bothering you? Want to talk about it?
