Pleasantly Surprised (Love Myself or You / Xi Huan · Yi Ge Ren / 喜歡·一個人)

We heard that your father kidnapped Shifu Food Group's general manager.

Did you get close to Fu Zi Jie with a motive?

No matter what happens, I will live a good life.

Ah Jie, why aren't you smiling?

I am.

Not that kind of smile. The kind that's like sunlight.

Are you here to inspect today?

Could it be that you wanted to see...

the person you wanted to see?

Le Xuan is back.

I can leave now, right?

You've been doing well at the restaurant. Why do you have to leave?

Because I can't be like you and pretend that nothing happened.

You think this is easy?

I'm working really hard, so you have to too!

My wife ate the steak you cooked yesterday and got food poisoning!

She's in the hospital right now.

I am currently in charge of Shifu Food Group.

You can talk to me.

This is my fault. I will resign.

Not being able to taste anything I eat...

how can I still be a chef?

I need to resign.

So what we need to do is to think of a way to expose their lie.

What are you trying to do to my wife?

Bastard! Let me tell you, there was no food poisoning.

Now that we've got the reputation of the restaurant back

you should bring back the innocent secondary chef.

Episode 18

Kai Qi! Kai Qi!

Good morning.

What are you doing here?

I came to see you.

So early?

Did you sleep well last night?

Whether you slept well or not has nothing to do with me.

Hurry and go back!

We've already cleared up the food poisoning incident.

You can come back to the restaurant.

I don't plan on going back.

Everyone already proved that there was nothing wrong with your steak.

They just wanted to extort money.

You can come back with a clear conscience.

I don't want to go back.

Isn't this the job and environment you're most used to?

Do you really not understand or are you pretending to be stupid?

You're the one who makes it so that I can't go back with a clear conscience.

Did you really think that I left because I made bad food?

The real reason I left is because of you.

You always repress your emotions and make sacrifices for others.

My dad did something wrong.

I tried to hide the truth.

But in the end, you're the one taking responsibility.

This is the outcome that I didn't want to see the most.

You're also taking responsibility.

Because I'm really at fault.

I know that you're working hard so I can go back to being the way I was before.

You're working hard so I wouldn't mind.

But I mind that you're working so hard.

I don't want you to work so hard.

Can't you think of a way to let yourself off?

It's harder without you.

That's just your misconception.

It'll be fine with time.

Century egg congee for Mrs. Du and Grandma.

Tuna sandwich for Kai Qi.

Pork chop quiche for Xiao Yi, right?

Yo.

Why are you here?

I went to buy breakfast.

I'm asking why you're here.

Didn't I just say that I went to buy breakfast?

Uncle Ah Jie!

Xiao Yi!

Uncle Ah Jie, I knew you are the best.

You came to find me right after our phone call.

Uncle Ah Jie, I'll take you to see real Japanese rhinoceros beetles.

Hao Wei and I saw them last night in a tree.

Let's go inside and eat breakfast.

Here, Xiao Yi.

Bring your breakfast with you.

Don't go too far with him. He'll play wildly.

And remember to tell me first the next time you come so early in the morning.

I'll buy your breakfast too.

Bye.

Uncle Ah Jie, hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

I definitely saw them here last time.

Japanese rhinoceros beetles like to come out at night.

Furthermore, they're usually in damp places.

So they won't come out because of the sun?

Probably.

Xiao Yi, how has your aunt been lately?

She's doing great, but sometimes, she'll get lost in thought.

She'll get lost in thought while looking at a spoon.

She'll get lost in thought while looking at a picture of a dish on her phone.

Hao Wei, I'll do it.

It's okay Mrs. Du. I can do it.

- How can I let you do it? - It's okay.

Grandma and Uncle Hao Wei, let me tell you something.

I didn't see any Japanese rhinoceros beetles today, but I saw butterflies!

Really?

Where's Auntie?

Kai Qi, Ah Jie and Xiao Yi are back.

Kai Qi?

It's okay.

I have some work to do later, so I need to leave.

You have work to do? Okay.

Xiao Yi, I'll come play with you next time.

You have to, okay?

Okay.

Okay, coming.

Bye, Uncle Ah Jie!

- Bye bye. - Bye bye.

You're not leaving?

- Me? - Aren't you going to leave?

For now, I don't plan on it.

I think he'll come again.

What does that have to do with me?

Oh, right.

Move.

Hey, you guys are giving the restaurant a bad atmosphere.

Hey, who's like you, who can tell the future just

by closing your eyes and stamping your foot?

Who knows if Ah Jie can get Kai Qi to come back.

But Ah Jie is the general manager right now.

It'll be weird if he can't get her to come back.

Is Kai Qi a normal woman?

It would be weird if he got her to come back.

Even an abnormal woman needs to be loved.

Du Kai Qi isn't just abnormal, she's a mythical creature.

The general manager wants to capture a mythical beast?

Man and beast are destined to be apart.

Ah Jie, I'm sorry. Kai Qi went out.

Mrs. Du, I'll leave now. I'll come back in two days.

I definitely will!

- I'll leave now. - Okay.

Mrs. Du, you want this brand of hand cream, right?

Yes, thank you! Sorry for troubling you.

You're welcome, Mrs. Du.

I also bought some oysters, your favorite food.

Oh, thank you.

Ah Jie, let's eat together, okay?

You can leave after eating.

It's okay. I have other matters, so I'll leave now.

Come in and eat.

Okay.

Kai Qi, come and eat some oysters.

Okay.

How long did it take Fu Zi Jie to drive over here?

He must be exhausted.

It made me think...

A few years ago, I heard there was a beautiful flower on the mountaintop.

So then I zealously spent half a day climbing the mountain.

Turns out the flower hadn't bloomed, and I didn't get to see anything.

It was so sickening.

Kai Qi, I've found out that I am getting less and less scared of your glares.

Because you're just a paper tiger.

What are you talking about?

What's wrong?

Le Xuan hasn't called me yet.

Before, if I disappeared for one day, she'd call me like life depended on it.

What's wrong with her this time?

After saying she'd resign, she cuts off all contact.

What's with women these days?

They're harder and harder to deal with.

Nowadays, men who marry are just asking for it.

Where exactly is it?

Wow, there are tramps in this nice residential area?

Cheng Le Xuan?

Hi, Chief.

How did you become so sloppy?

Don't mind me.

Flower vase, you lost your sense of taste, not your sense of beauty!

This can't do, where's your house?

Chief, do you want to eat some?

No, it's too spicy.

- No, there's no taste at all. - Where's your house?

God! What are you eating?

No taste, no taste, this has no taste either.

Nothing I eat has any taste. Not one thing.

You'll mess up your kidneys before you even get your sense of taste back.

Hey, where are you going?

Hey!

What are you doing?

Go in and shower.

I'm giving you ten minutes.

If you don't change back into the beautiful Cheng Le Xuan

I'm going to go in and help you change.

- No. - Go in.

As a professional chef

what I hate most are cockroaches, mice

and dirty, messy women.

But professional chefs aren't the only ones who hate dirty, messy women.

All men hate them.

How long have these noodles been here?

God!

Silly you.

Didn't I tell you that your strength is your beauty?

As soon as you step out, all the madams are happy.
