The First Half of My Life

Episode 5

Sister, did you cry?

Oh no, oh no. We were still too late.

Did brother-in-law tell you that he has another woman?

No.

He said he does, but I don't believe him.

He told you with his own mouth?

Where did Chen Junsheng get this kind of audacity?

He, he told you he has another woman?

Where is he?

He just left you here at home alone?

Don't be scared. Jun Jun, don't be scared.

You still have your mom. I will go find him for you.

Mom, don't go. Please come back.

Please sit down and listen to what I have to say.

But I can't sit down.

Please, quickly. Come here.

Okay.

Mom, I want to tell you

that there may be some issues between me and Junsheng.

But it's nothing big. Things will get better.

Don't go find him.

If you go find him and tell him these things, he'll get upset.

I don't think this is a small issue.

I saw Chen Junsheng with that woman - - Don't say such nonsensical things.

I know who that woman is.

Her name is Ling Ling.

I know her. I've met her a couple times and had a few meals with her.

But she really isn't a bad person.

She's actually a nice person.

Will a bad woman have "bad woman" written on her face

to let you know she's a bad woman?

How can you be so simple-minded?

Do you really believe whatever other people tell you?

What's her name again?

Ling Ling. - Ok, Ling Ling.

I'm going to go find her and have a chat with her.

Jun Jun, listen to what your mom has to say.

During their lifetime, married couples

will always meet a third party who tries to enter their relationship.

And once you know who that third party is, you must get rid of her immediately.

Mom, don't go. Please don't go.

If you go, then Junsheng will get mad at me.

He will what?

What right does he have to get mad at you?

Think clearly. He's in the wrong.

He has a mistress. How can he be mad at you?

What kind of logic is this?

Jun Jun, listen to what your mom has to say.

Extramarital affairs are never stable.

They're very flimsy, and if you hit them hard, they'll fall apart.

The key here is to hit hard.

Mom, don't go.

What if things aren't as bad as we make them out to be?

What if there really isn't anything going on? Then we'd be blaming an innocent person.

I'll go, okay?

I'll go. I know her, too.

I'll meet with her and see what she has to say.

You're already in your thirties.

Do you not know how complicated humans can be?

Enough, enough. You guys- I'm already going crazy.

Can you guys just go home for now?

You guys should just go home first.

Let me tell you, I don't think things are as bad as you think they are.

You guys know what kind of person Junsheng is like.

All these years, he has treated you guys better than he treats me.

I think Junsheng just had a temporary lapse in judgment.

Don't make the problem bigger than it really is.

After some time passes, all of these troubles will also pass.

Sister, you can't think so simply. You need to make preparations.

You! Why do you always say such nonsensical things!

What preparations?

Are you asking your sister to prepare for divorce?

Let me tell you, you are really something!

Jun Jun, listen to your mom.

You can cry, scream, hit, and blame.

But you can never ever get a divorce. Understand?

If you divorce Chen Junsheng,

you probably can't find anyone that can even compare to him.

I know!

Alright, enough. Please go home. I won't divorce him.

Go home. I need to leave soon, too.

Hurry and leave.

But I'm still worried about you.

Let's go. Don't worry about her.

Wear something nice. Make yourself look pretty.

Okay, let's go.

You two...

Are your brain broken?

Letting your sister divorce.

You should advice for them to reconcile and not separate, don't you know that?

But I saw Chen Junsheng hugging that woman.

Then teach them a lesson and not let them embrace each other.

Isn't that right? You think I'm not angry?

She is your sister, and she's also my daughter.

I wish I could really just grab that Chen Junsheng

and rip him to shreds.

But let me tell you,

your mom is the most clear-headed right now.

Your sister doesn't know how to make money.

Chen Junsheng can be considered to be good to her already.

Right? The best ending now is

that Chen Junsheng will still come back

and still be good to your older sister and Ping'er.

Or else, with your older sister not knowing to do anything, will she just go and drink some northwestern wind? (have nothing to eat but wind)

That's why, even if I have to use a rope,

I have to tie your older sister and Chen Junsheng together.

Miss, hello.

You are not from this residential area, right? Looking for someone?

I am looking for Ling Ling. - Then just call her.

Is she your friend?

You can say so.

What do you mean by 'you can say so'?

My husband is divorcing me and marrying her.

Since you have agreed with my proposal then why aren't you doing things based on what we agreed?

You have spent so many money, and I have spent so many effort

but now it will just become some useless paper in the office?

I am not only angry but also can't understand it.

If you are like this, how are we going to continue this partnership?

Give me the phone!

Let me ask you, did the other party pay already? - They did.

Then why are you getting pumped up and angry?

Let us go inside, eat some fish and drink some wine.

And then...

Go and get the next client. An inch of time is worth an inch of gold.

What you do is consultation, not supervising.

I have to at least know why, right?

Give me my phone. - I'll give you once we're done eating fish.

Hurry and give it to me!

The number you dialed has already turned on the message alert.

Your message notification will now be sent...

The number you dialed has already turned on the message alert.

Your message notification will now be sent to her phone.

Old Zhuo!

For you!

Thank you. Thank you.

Better be careful.

This is the best wine that I am able to give.

Hurry and serve Boss He his wine. - Okay.

Brother Han and Sister Tang Jing.

Please enjoy.

If they won't use my proposal, then it means something is wrong in here.

I must find it.

Please enjoy.

I dare say that even if I give you one night,

you also won't be able to find anything wrong with the numbers

and solutions written here.

It's hard for me to finally have a vacation. Don't say one night,

even for a minute, I'm too lazy to mind these

boring numbers and solutions that appears to be right.

Treat it as me asking for a consult.

Let me say this again.

You've already finished with your consultation

and given your suggestions.

As for whether they will follow your advice, you shouldn't care.

How can I not care? It's disrespect towards me.

Respect?

Then think back to how they treated you when you first entered this industry.

Make the comparison and you will no longer say

they are being disrespectful towards you.

This is probably what it means to not forget your original aspirations.

When I first entered the industry, you were very patient in pointing out my mistakes and guiding me.

I was busy worrying about how to obtain your approval. I didn't have time to worry about how others treated me.

Luo Luo!

Why are you idling over there and eavesdropping on them?

Old Zhuo, let me ask you an age-old question.

Do you think it's better to date someone in the same line of work

or someone in another line of work?

Let me ask you which line of work you're in.

Me? I'm in the food and drink industry.

Food and industry? You can switch.

You can enter the gossip industry.

Hurry up and bring them their fish.

Remember to come back right away afterwards.

Don't listen in on them. - Okay.

All right.

Let me put it this way. Have you considered this?

You've already covered everything at a technical level, and they haven't pointed out anything they don't like.

So why won't they follow through with your advice?

Because of the people. Remember this.

At the bottom of all consulting problems are people problems.

That's why you should stop worrying about the numbers and figures.

Think about the chain of people involved in the whole project.

Whose interests are affected?

Whose cheese did you move? The problem lies with that person.

The cane sugar supplier.

Lowering the sweetness of the cookies satisfied mid- and high-end consumers' demands to be healthy

but also greatly decreased the demand for sugar.

Where are you going? - To take care of the problem.

Eat the fish first.

Omega-3 is good for the brain.

Come on.

Seeing how you're so anxious

I'll use some more brainpower to say a little more.

Starting now, this work is completely finished.

Remember, don't do anything the client didn't ask of you.

Don't give the client a free lunch.

You bill by the hour, and it's not cheap.

So, finish your dinner and go home to sleep.
