Miss Mei Yan!
Miss Mei Yan, these flowers are for you.
Thank you.
Oh, they are so fragrant. Thank you.
Can I ask you--
You can't!
Why are you being so disrespectful?
He was staying so close to you while talking to you. It was him who was disrespectful.
Oh, mister, you misunderstood.
What did I misunderstand?
I am an avid fad of Ms. Mei Yan.
I just wanted to ask her if I can shake her hand.
Of course, you can.
Thank you. Thank you, Ms. Mei Yan.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
So sorry.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Mei Yan! Mei Yan!
This is my gift for you.
He gave me fresh flowers while you are giving me bamboos.
No sincerity at all.
This is fortune bamboos.
It is not only delicate and pretty like you. It can even bring you luck.
And more importantly, this is my kickoff filming gift for you.
The studio has already shut down what filming kickoff are you talking about?
The studio now has funds. We can resume work.
- Are you for real? - Yes.
- Have all the problems been solved? - Of course.
It's like this. Third has already been able to open up the Southeast Asian market.
He even said that the audiences there really like you a lot.
That is why I have decided to shoot a new film and make you the leading lady.
The movie that I am making is entitled 'Butterfly Lovers'. I want you to play Zhou Yingtai.
Wow! So great! I have always wanted to play a woman disguising as a male scholar!
That I know. That is why when I have decided to shoot this film,
I thought about you so I immediately came to look for you.
What's wrong?
I feel that these bamboos represent Zhou Yingtai.
They also are representing my current feelings. That is way more meaningful than fresh flowers, right?
Here. Please accept them.
I won't accept them.
So you came to find me just for shooting a film.
You again proved that everything that you did for me,
all the presents that you gave me, were connected to your movies.
- It's not like that. - You only remember me when you need a leading lady.
Mei Yan!
Stop tormenting me already.
I not only want you to become the leading lady in my movies.
I wanted more for you to become the leading lady of my life.
Mei Yan...
You...can you say that again?
I want to say...to let you become my life's...
What are you doing?
There was a reporter. I was afraid that they will just randomly write things
and affect your image as a leading lady.
I don't want to be your leading lady.
Just be alone like this forever.
Mei Yan! Hey, Mei...
Okay, take care.
You are Yanmei's third brother. You're back?
Xiao Yu? What a coincidence.
I thought that Yanmei came back with you.
No. We originally should have returned together.
But our mobile film showing carriage is too popular over there. A lot of villages have already reserved for screenings.
That is why Yanmei decided to stay behind.
I frequently hear Yanmei say that the most important thing in business is fulfilling one's words.
Yanmei is someone that will never break his promise.
And he can't bear to disappoint the villagers.
That is why, I can only let him live a travel-worn life there alone.
It must be very hard.
He surely will be able to persist until the end.
It is just that there are too many mosquitoes there.
I fear that he might get bitten too often.
I know a very effective anti-mosquito medicine.
If you are able to bring it to him, that will be great.
Then really thank you.
But for the meantime, I must stay here to work.
I'll just give him the medicine when I go back to visit him after some time.
- It's more or less like that. - Okay. Verify it.
- Assistant General Manager. - Xiao Yu?
What about it? Are you currently busy? Am I disturbing you?
It was because I was too idle that I came here to the front desk to look for work to do.
You said that you are about to leave for Malaysia for a business trip?
Right. I will be leaving in a few days.
I also want to go.
I want to visit Yanmei.
I bumped into Yanmei's third brother today. There mobile film showing carriage was very successful in Malaysia,
very popular. Yanmei finally succeeded.
That's right. Never thought he really has the ability for it. I previously thought that he surely will fail.
Yanmei invested so much blood and sweat for movies. He surely will succeed.
I am very curious and wanted to see his mobile film showing carriage.
I heard from his third brother that Yanmei's next film screening stop is at a town beside Kuala Lumpur.
What about it? Let us give him a surprise. What do you think?
I am on business trip and indeed can go there in passing. But as a rich lady like you, going to those rural and remote areas,
uncle and auntie surely will not allow it.
If you are willing to help me, then they might agree.
Auntie, this is your favorite English chocolate.
Thank you, Linjie.
You have been considerate ever since you were little.
I heard from Xiao Yu that you are busy managing the hotel now. You must be very busy.
In a few days, he will be going to Kuala Lumpur for a business trip.
Right, we have a new hotel opening in Kuala Lumpur.
Never thought that your family's business has already expanded this much. Congratulations.
I heard that there will be a major European art exhibit happening in Kuala Lumpur.
Yes, that's correct. This exhibit will be happening in the museum near our hotel.
That is why, uncle and auntie,
can I take Xiao Yu to see this exhibit together?
Xiao Yu will surely be very happy.
You are taking Xiao Yu to such a far place to see an art exhibit?
Although you two are childhood friends, you two are still not married yet to each other.
A single man and a single woman together, I am just afraid that people will make a mockery out of this.
Actually, I invited Xiao Yu...
to come with me to Malaysia for another reason.
In the future, when Xiao Yu becomes my wife, she surely needs to go with me to socialize with other people.
I hope that she can get used to it sooner.
So you are thinking for your future together.
Okay. Okay. Not bad. I support it.
Uncle, auntie, don't worry. I surely will take care of Xiao Yu in this journey.
Sure, we are at ease. With you by her side, we of course are not worried.
Of course, I trust you. I am entrusting my daughter to you then.
Father, I will be going to Malaysia in a few days for a business trip. Xiao Yu will be coming with me.
You think I am letting you go there for leisurely travel?
No. I am just taking her to widen her knowledge and experience. I won't let it affect my work.
Please be at ease.
Son, in this business trip,
you must establish good connections with the local officials.
Give them enough respect.
Pave the way for future expansion plans of our hotel.
If we miss out on this present opportunity,
then we will suffer great losses.
Don't worry, father. I will not disappoint you.
Okay.
Lingjie, may I come in?
Lingjie, look at this.
This is citronella cream. There are too much mosquitoes in Malaysia. You must take this.
Okay, thank you.
Lingjie, and this one.
These are medicines and what my sister likes a lot.
And, this is some change.
Could you please bring this to her?
Okay.
You are seldom to come to Kuala. You should go to visit your brother.
He is so poor to be alone there.
Lingjie, I have one more request.
You come to visit Wenbin's schoolmaster on behalf of me.
Ask him to write a reference letter.
Help him transfer to Singapore's school, is that okay?
Auntie, you know that I travel to Malaysia for business.
I have no time to run an errand for you. Let alone I need to visit a friend.
A friend?
You would visit a friend rather than visit your younger brother?
You leave your brother's future behind. What kind of brother you are?
Things of you and Wenbin are none of my business.
It is not necessary for me to help you.
Really?!
It seems like you already forget the fighting happened before.
I did you a favor. You owe me.
Alright, I got it. I will visit your son when I have time.
This sounds nice.
Thank you. I will leave it on you.
-Yanmei. -It is you guys.
You two are so capable of finding me.
All Malaysian newspapers are reporting your mobile film car. So we know your schedule.
I am handing her over to you. I have to run to a meeting.
Let's go.
There seems something in the front is blocking the road.
It is okay. I will move it away.
Hand your money over .
Hurry up!
Give me her jewelries.
Wait a minute.
Run!
Are you alright?
I am fine.
Can you still walk?
Let me carry you.
Xiaoyu.
You wake up.
Yes.
Have a rest.
Okay.
You say, will anybody find us?
Do not think too much.
You have a good rest at first. I will think of a way.
What if there is nobody find us?
Do not be afraid. I will definitely find a way to take you out.
Believe me.
Am I too timid?
If my girlfriend was here, she must be more panic than you.
Because she is so scared of darkness.
Your......girlfriend?
She is in Shanghai alone now.
Why doesn't she come to Malaysia with you together?
For my sake of pursuing my dream.
So she chose to stay in Shanghai by herself.
But I promised to come for her in Shanghai.
What kind of person she is?
She is the one who knows me the most.
And supports me the most in this world.
