My Mowgli Boy (Wo De Mo Ge Li Nan Hai / 我的莫格利男孩)

I feel like if there's really something wrong, you have to say it out loud.

Don't bear the burden yourself. The two of us can solve it together.

Or did this thing affect your feelings for me?

Or...

you want to break up?

But you're too embarrassed to say it, so you act coldly towards me hoping I'll bring it up first. Is that it?

If that's the case, no problem, then I'll bring it up.

Let's break up.

Now, you can finally tell me what the matter is.

If I say that what happened to me in the past had something to do with your dad,

would you believe it?

What do you mean?

So what?

This is what I've found online.

That year, because of this, someone from your dad's company was sent to prison.

After this happened, your dad shut down the company and changed to a different industry.

Furthermore, I remember you once told me that your dad was often not home.

When you were little, he often left you with your Uncle Zheng.

Although I can't be 100% sure, I think that—

Are you out of your mind?! What are you saying?

My dad left me in the care of Uncle Zheng at the time because he had business transactions to do in Japan,

so he couldn't care for me.

When he was in Japan, he even bought me Doraeman toys for me.

I am sure of this because that was the last gift he gave me.

I know that whatever I say, you won't really believe me.

But after all these years, do you really believe your dad? Do you really understand him?

I admit our relationship hasn't been great,

but I know his moral character and how he conducts himself.

There is no way he could do anything evil, let alone murder someone!

Murdering someone is against the law. There is no way that he could have done that!

Do you know that when I was little, I would fight with my classmates?

I hit my classmate once.

He personally dragged me to the classmate's house to apologize to him.

"If you've done something wrong, you must be accountable for it.

A person must be kind-hearted." Those are what my dad taught.

How could he have done deeds like murder and illegal trade?

I also hope it wasn't him.

It definitely wasn't him.

I will definitely investigate this matter clearly.

Mowgli, if... I'm just saying if.

If this matter is true,

will it affect our relationship?

Then, let's do it like this for now.

Oh right! If there's any problem with the venture plan, please feel free to bring it up.

Rest assured. What you have asked for, we will definitely complete it.

Then, I'll go do my own things. - Sure.

Treat this as your home.

Let's all do a good job.

Then, how about you go home early today.

What are you doing?

Why are you so anxious to talk to me.

The whole office hasn't gotten off work. What if someone finds out about us?

Your company is our company's venture partner right now.

So what if they see us? No need to sneak around.

Exactly what is it that you must tell me now?

I hope you can find a reason to raise the price.

That doesn't seem like a good idea. What if it gets discovered?

Spare me the bullshit.

Since when did you become a scaredy-cat?

Listen to me. No one will expose you.

Okay.

Even if you could get away with it this time, what about next time?

If you continue like this, you will get found out sooner or later.

Say, Little Director Ling,

what your family doesn't lack the most is money.

Submit to your wife and your old dad, and you'll have everything.

Don't give me bullshit!

Don't worry. If I have a share, that means you'll have a share.

Fine. I'll do it.

Little Yu!

Dad!

You're still working? Do you want to leave together?

Okay.

No need to be formal. Move your chopsticks.

No need to feel like an outsider.

Right. Move your chopsticks. If you don't,

we also... will be embarrassed.

You've met my mom.

She has a one-track mind.

As long as you smooth her hair according to the direction of growth, never ever contradict her.

I believe that you'll have a chance in this meeting-the-parents stage.

Auntie, your culinary skills are great.

The soup that you make is especially good.

Really?

My maid's culinary skills are really great.

Look at this soup. Soft-shelled turtle and milk vetch root, it nourishes your yin and kidneys.

Also, simmered gingko and pig stomach.

It's very good for the skin.

And... this one! This one is... black chicken.

You know that black chicken is very good for women.

Today's soups

were all prepared especially for you.

Auntie, you're being too courteous.

But what if she uses your weakness to attack you? That means she's starting to go against us.

But don't you worry,

because my dad will definitely come in to save you.

All right? - Understood.

I approve of you two dating.

Mom, is that for real?

However, you must marry right now;

and within a year, birth a child.

Bai Yiling is old. It's difficult to be an older first-time mother.

It's better to birth earlier than it is to birth later, am I right?

Mom, to be honest, I'm just like a little kid.

How am I supposed to raise and care for a child—

How are you a little kid?

When your dad was your age, he already had you!

Auntie, I actually have—

I have two things to say.

Since your mom has already conceded, the two of you should yield a bit as well.

Today is all about discussing the present.

Let's take our time to discuss the future at another time.

Is that okay? - No.

What do you mean "take your time?" We have to make things clear today.

Fine. I'll be honest, then.

I'm sick.

Wh... What?

What illness? - I've been to the doctor.

The doctor said... I have a congenital chromosome defect.

In other words... I was like this from birth.

I'm going to take a call.

You guys have a chat first.

My wife and kids have become Ling Zhenghao's wife and kids!

At the time, there were many things that were out of my control.

But looking at the end result, the two of them living a good life is enough.

Isn't this your wish anyways?

Why did it have to be Ling Zhenghao? I could have accepted any other person.

Donghai, is this such an important issue?

Do you have any way to change this?

Although Ling Zenghao may have been devoid of conscience at the time,

he did it for self-preservation. Furthermore,

he's always treated Wen Yu extremely well and has treated your son as if he were his own.

Are you still not satisfied?

Have they really been living well?

Very well. Extremely well.

It's too difficult to discuss this over the phone. Let's meet in person to continue this discussion.

Hold on, you—

Director Zheng, I'm not too familiar with your house, so when I came out of the bathroom,

I didn't know which way I should go.

I see.

That...This way.

You should get a check-up and get treated right now!

I still cannot forgive Ling Zhenghao.

This way. This way. - Okay.

Come, eat some oranges.

No need to be so busy, Auntie Wen Yu. Take a break.

How is it that you decided to come home and eat dinner with us today?

Your dad and I just happened to be feeling a bit lonely.

I just happened to pass by here.

Since I passed by the house, shouldn't I should at least come in and have a meal with you?

It's better than takeout, right?

You really are so at ease here.

Why should I be formal with family? Aren't I right, Auntie Wen Yu?

Exactly!

Why didn't you bring that young lad with you this time?

Could it be that the car accident really caused you two to break up?

What are you talking about? I think you're just jealous.

You're jealous that he bought a car for me. You're jealous of us being all lovey-dovey, aren't you?

How could our feelings change just because of a minor car accident?

Things are quite well between us.

Then... did he not say anything after that?

He did! He said that after a while, he was going to take me to a lake to relax.

Either way, he's been all secretive and mysterious about it.

I have no idea what he plans on doing.

That's good, too! Go out, have fun, and relax.

You have to be a better judge of character when it comes to people.

If things aren't good, let go for a little bit.

The saying "time reveals a person's heart" is never wrong.

Don't always be the brainless one.

The thing you had with Zheng Li is still very vivid in my mind.

It's already been so long. Stop bringing it up, okay?

That was because I was on the road of mistakes for far too long.

But now I'm on the right track. I won't be wrong this time around.

To be honest, I think this young fellow is a very decent guy. Really.

He's good-looking and has a good personality as well.

I think he'd make a great son-in-law.

Of course! I chose him myself.

Auntie Wen Yu,

do you know why I liked Brother Zheng Li back then?

Why?

It's all because of my dad.

Because of me?

Of course! Have you forgotten?
