Timing and Subtitles Brought To You By The Here to Heart Team @ Viki

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Good morning, Wen Nuan!

Good morning.

And... good-bye.

Good morning.

Hey, darling!

Hi, this is for you.

Thank you so much. I hope we can keep in touch.

Sure.

Bye.

Morning.

- Surprise! - Surprise!

- Where is she? - Where is she?

Surprise!

Here, pass me your bag.

Thank you.

I don't want to say good-bye.

I'll miss you.

- We'll miss you. - Thank you.

- Thank you for your flowers. - You're welcome.

Thank you for everything you have done for the team.

We made this to remember your time in the R&D center in Hamburg, Germany.

I remember. It's a good memory.

Thank you! I have achieved so much

and it was really a great honor for me to become part of this team. I will miss all of you.

We'll miss you.

- So we, uhm... we actually prepared something a little special for you. - Wow.

And I really hope you like it.

So lovely, it's my name.

Thank you.

I even learned how to use chopsticks because your Chinese cooking is so good.

Stay here! You can run a restaurant in London.

Run a restaurant, why not?

But I think I will first make an investment plan for this project.

Okay, thanks for (to) everyone and I really appreciate (it).

Let's go party!

- Morning. - Morning.

Can't you see that my assistant doesn't have a seat?

Why don't you give up your seat for her?

No, CEO Zhan, doesn't the assistant sit in the back?

Okay, let me introduce the London subsidiary of Qian Yu Corporation's new general manager,

new general manager,

Yang Ying.

CEO Zhan, this—

What's wrong?

- This is so unfair! - Why is this unfair?

Having a good-for-nothing like you in Qian Yu,

would be even more unfair to the employees in the company.

Besides, Lao Gu,

aren't you conspiring with our rival company, Dai Zhong?

Aren't you more comfortable doing that?

CEO Zhan, you need to have evidence to make that kind of statement.

Evidence?

We have already pressed charges against you,

for commercial bribery. I suggest that you find a lawyer soon.

Mr. Gu, please.

Okay, let's start the meeting.

Looks like I came at the right time.

I can send you off and welcome you back at the same time.

You really did choose the right time.

I suspect that you

placed some tracking microchip in my phone.

You know wherever I go.

That's hard to say. It's confidential information. Forgive me for not revealing it.

But I think that it's quite good. I brought you to London seven years ago

and now I am taking you back to China.

That's considered putting an end to what I started, right?

Have you thought about it?

When you go back, do you want to work at Dai Zhong?

You are a talented person with working experience and life skills.

It'll certainly be an advantage to you.

Forget about it. A person like you who fights with pigeons over food,

I don't expect you to find me a job.

Hey! This tastes pretty good.

Besides, since I hurried here, I didn't eat anything. I'm hungry. What's wrong with me eating something?

Eat more. I bought it for you and the pigeons.

Listening to your tone, you don't seem keen on Dai Zhong?

Okay. I surrender. How about this?

I'll help you to submit your resume to find a job that's better suited to you. Is that alright?

Then I'll thank you in advance.

But speaking of that,

you've changed a lot after being away for so long.

What if you can't adjust when you return?

I've been gone for seven years.

There are some things—

I just feel that...

I should be braver and work harder

and go find the old me again.

Okay.

Everyone knows that Yang Ying, CEO Zhan's previous assistant, has gone to London to take her new position.

I want to secure the next assistant for CEO Zhan.

After the selection rounds, and on the recommendation of management,

we have confirmed three candidates.

Du Xintong. She has been in the company for over three years.

She's the senior manager in the Administration Department.

She's been in the company longer and is more experienced.

She's pretty intelligent and quite flexible.

Duan Yan. She's calm and has a low profile.

She's the opposite of Du Xintong's carefree and outgoing personality.

It's just that... she's a little inflexible.

The last candidate is Wen Nuan, from the Sales Department.

She's a business graduate from Cambridge University and has been in the company for just three months.

She's the dark horse* among the other candidates.

She's too inexperienced, even though her professional abilities are outstanding. I'm afraid that people won't be convinced.

Qian Yu has always selected people based on their capabilities.

The company's principle in selecting employees has always been that abilities take precedence over seniority.

Okay, we understand the situation and the background of these three candidates.

Let's arrange an interview this afternoon so that we can fill the position as soon as possible.

Okay, I'll make preparations right now.

Director.

Take a seat.

What preparations have you made for the position of assistant to the CEO?

Wen Nuan?

I have a deep understanding of your qualifications and your overseas working experience.

I would like to ask if you have any interest in the CEO's assistant position?

The CEO's assistant?

Yes. What are your thoughts?

I am surprised.

The salary and the authority of the CEO's assistant

is of the same level as a senior manager.

Are you surprised at the opportunity?

I am confident that I am able to take on the job.

But I don't know if I am suitable for the position.

You can be direct with me.

My boyfriend works at Dai Zhong.

Dai Zhong?

Is it convenient for you to tell me his position at Dai Zhong?

He's the general manager of Dai Zhong.

Zhu Linlu?

All right. I've got it. You can return to your work first.

The results will be out tomorrow.

Yes.

Sis Danran, let me do it.

If you do everything yourself, how are we supposed to grow and learn?

What's the matter, Xiao Du?

Will your child be going to primary school soon?

Shang Wai Jing Primary School?

I have a best friend at an educational institution. She tutored a few kids and all of them made it into that school.

I had her prepare a set of interview and test questions along with some secret manuals.

I've sent them to your email.

Really?

Thank you, Xiao Du.

You're welcome. Sis Danran. - Hmm?

When are the results of the CEO's assistant position being announced?

I want to ask, what are your thoughts on the CEO's assistant position?

Do you have any interest in it?

Why did I say that I was the girlfriend of Linlu? What was I thinking?

Xiao Nuan! A caller is on the phone for you.

I'm coming.

Wait a moment.

Who is it?

Auntie Li.

Hello? Auntie Li.

Xiao Nuan, I'm just calling to ask, how you are?

Today, Qian Yu's Human Resource Department

notified me to take part in the interview for the CEO's assistant today.

But...

My boyfriend works in Dai Zhong.

Dai Zhong?

He's the general manager of Dai Zhong.

Zhu Linlu?

Don't be nervous.

You used seven years to take this step forward, you're already very brave.

Take it slowly, follow your heart, and take baby steps.

You will discover that everything will get better.

Auntie Li... don't worry.

I won't give up that easily.

I am cheering you on.

Bye-bye.

Xiao Nuan, done talking?

Luckily you've had Auntie Li taking care of you all these years while you were overseas.

Otherwise, I would have been worried leaving you there all alone.

Sis, it has been seven years.

I am used to being alone.

I really am not a good elder sister.

What are you talking about?

But, from now on, no matter where you go,

I'll always be with you.

Xiao Nuan, thank you for coming back.

I am really happy that you are back.

I am, too.

I have a gift for you.

It's so pretty.

Do you like it?

I saw it when I passed by the shops today. I thought that it'd suit you a lot.

You just came back. You'll need money. Why spend it on this?

I have enough money. Come, I'll help you put it on.

Give me your hand.

It must have hurt a lot.

It has been such a long time, I have already forgotten about it.

Why don't I have any recollection of it?

No recollection means that it's not important. Besides, you were in London then, how would you know?

Such a serious injury, how can it be unimportant?

I got drunk back then, after being dumped.

I broke a wine glass and accidentally cut myself.

I didn't imagine that it would leave a scar

How many times do you want me to repeat such an embarrassing incident?
