Mom! I'm home!
Yes.
Aiyo! Oooh!
Why did you cook such a feast?
Are we having guests over?
Mom, how come you didn't tell me you're having guests?
Your younger brother came home.
Ah Ming came home, right? - Yes.
That's weird. Today isn't even Chinese New Year or Mid-Autumn Festival.
Why did he come home?
I get it.
It'll be like before.
He stays for a bit and then leaves.
I know it all.
He came back around noon.
Really?
Really.
Where is he?
He said he had to go out for a moment.
Only go out for a moment?
He'll be back soon.
Look at you, dreaming.
I'm not.
He seems kind of different coming back this time.
How is he kind of different, tell me?
He seems very happy.
Very happy?
Imitate him for me.
He said...
"I... Ah Ming... came home."
You watch too many television dramas and commercials!
What do you mean?
Aiyo Mom! Things like that happen all the time on television.
It's like this.
I'll show you.
"Mom... I, Ah Ming... I came home."
I think that is more like it.
So are you saying that
he just came back to pay me a visit?
Mom, I feel bad to be honest with you but that's what I really feel.
It doesn't seem like it.
How about this,
Mrs. Qiao, come. Listen.
You sit here, okay?
Sit down. Sit Down.
I, your oldest son, will sit with you on this sofa.
We'll wait and see if Ah Ming comes back.
Okay.
But what if he doesn't come back?
You're that lawyer! - Yes.
I gave you back the flash drive— - Do you remember me?
Yes, of course I remember you.
You remember, right? - Yes.
That's a relief.
In fact, I've never had a girlfriend all these years.
Is that so?
Have you been living well?
I am living very well.
Did you change your name?
Your original name was good.
Why change it?
I didn't change my name.
You didn't change your name?
Nope!
So...
You're not Dai Qi, are you?
Do you know my older sister?
Your older sister?
Yeah!
Do you know where she is?
When was the last time you saw her?
10 years ago.
10 years ago?
So it wasn't recent?
Last year?
The year before last?
So it wasn't last year or the year before.
Did you say Dai Qi is your older sister?
Then let's clear this up first, okay?
First of all, how did your older sister—
Answer my question.
What are you doing?
You said you saw my older sister 10 years ago.
I dated her during that time.
You were her boyfriend from back then!
I think so.
We were together for 1 month and 1 week.
So later, older sister—
Wait, you keep saying "my older sister this" "my older sister that"
but you look exactly the same, so are you—?
We are twins.
I didn't even know Dai Qi had a younger twin sister.
Did you and your older sister go to the same school?
No, she doesn't like going to the same school as me.
Why? - Because—
Okay.
You say you don't know where your older twin sister is.
Why is that?
I don't know. - How is that possible?
I really don't know!
You're weird.
Have you looked for her at her school before?
Sometimes I went.
Whenever she forgot to bring things or if anything was too heavy, I would bring it for her.
Let me ask you,
10 years ago, did you help an elderly ragpicker to push his cart?
Thank you. Thank you.
Uncle, where do you want to take these?
To the recycling station.
Recycling station?
Thank you!
No problem.
Uncle, let me ask you, where is that girl who helped you earlier?
Just now she left that way.
She left, right? - Yes
Thank you! - Okay, okay.
Hey! Driver! Wait for me!
Hey!
Xi Ming, you're sharp! First place!
Qiao Xi Ming is first place.
It's here!
Really? - Very sharp.
You aren't too—
Is your name Qiao Xi Ming?
Yes.
We've seen each other a few days ago.
Yes.
My phone number.
Did you help that old man push the cart all the way back to the recycling station that day?
You can call me.
10 years ago... I was in 10th grade.
I think so.
It was also raining heavily that day.
That old man even lent me a beat up umbrella afterwards.
But... but how can you know that?
So the person who helped the old man wasn't Dai Qi.
If you're looking for my older sister just to know whether she's doing well or not,
I can tell you that I don't know.
Bao Qi!
Amanda! - What's wrong?
Then I'll be on my way. Goodbye!
But I still have more questions to ask you—
Can I help you?
I'm busy!
Are you her coworker?
She's my junior from college.
We're coworkers and good pals.
What are you trying to do?
Hey, Jia En.
Hey! Are you here? - Yes.
Bao Qi. - Yes?
Who was that guy earlier?
A lawyer.
Lawyer! Lawyer! Yes!
Our company has hope!
It's not me who found him.
What kind of lawyer?! What kind of lawyer?!
Do you know that the owner of Luxury World owes us delivery fee for one year?
However, he went to buy a sports car and showed it off to the media!
So cruel!
He owes us money but can afford a sports car.
Isn't that horrible?
I went to dispute this with him at noon.
Do you know what he said?
He said, if we were capable, we should hire a lawyer to sue him!
That's too awful!
He knows that we are poor, so he said such words.
I think even if we post the sublet poster now, it can't help much, either.
So, if we don't settle the bad debt...
will our company close down?
Bao Qi, this company is the heart of us few.
I won't allow that rotten apple to ruin our company.
Right! We can't allow that.
So, hurry up and look for that lawyer.
Go! - Huh? I can't!
Why can't you?
That lawyer talked to you for so long outside.
You guys looked like close friends.
Just go and beg him a bit.
He'll definitely agree to help.
