House of Spirits / 屋老友記 (2016)

You can't win a girl's heart like that. Let me help you.

You want to hear music? No problem. May I?

Rose, the most beautiful Rose. Rose, the most ravishing Rose.

Blooming in the summer. Rose, Rose I love you.

Rose, Rose I love you.

Wonderful!

So, did I dazzle you with my music?

I'm surprised you sang an old song.

I can surprise you with many things, Miss Goddess.

How did you know my nickname?

Anyway, don't call me that name. It's really embarrassing.

Whatever you say, my goddess.

A friend of mine hosts mini concerts at the farm every weekend.

Come join us next time.

Are you asking me out on a date? Girls nowadays are so forward.

Are you coming or not?

I need to think about it. You know, I'm not a casual dater.

Why don't you give me your number? I'll think about it and call you later.

Sure. Where's your phone?

You mean this?

Yes.

That's all I can do. Now you're on your own.

What?

Here's my number. Let's WhatsApp.

What?

Keep contact, OK? Bye.

Am I dreaming?

After you.

Anthony, you're really brilliant.

When we were in college, you said you wanted a nice car, a nice house, a beautiful wife.

Now you have it all.

Right, you bought an apartment at the market's peak. I'm still renting.

My father left me nothing, so I can only rely on myself.

I came up with the down payment by investing.

The view may be nice at the Apex, but I don't really like the layout.

It's marketed as a luxury apartment but it's in a crowded old neighbourhood.

Gordon, your apartment at Neptune Palace in Kau To Shan is a condo with a sky garden.

I heard it's humongous.

Gordon, didn't you rent an old apartment in Mid-Levels near Lan Kwai Fong.

You said you hated living in remote areas in the New Territories.

You're not stupid enough to throw money away on rent, are you?

Stupid? I'm not a tenant, I bought it.

Gordon met his wife in Lan Kwai Fong half a year ago.

You know who his father-in-law is? Cheung Yu-wan the steel magnate!

He can basically spend the rest of his life doing nothing!

Cheers, Anthony!

Where have you been? Why didn't you wait for me?

Sorry, honey! I've been looking for you!

I'm so sorry! Sit down! Don't be mad at me!

That big woman with crazy-looking curly hair is Gordon's wife?

Considering how rich she is, she's actually quite a catch.

Poor thing.

Heartfelt... Sympathies.

Sorry, I'm a bit late.

Hi, honey.

Sorry, honey, I went to get my hair done.

It's OK, I don't mind waiting for my beautiful wife. Sit down.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

I'm Fiona.

We recognize you, Fiona. We went to your wedding.

They say a woman looks her best on her wedding day, but you always look your best.

Honey, you know, Fiona is a model with a stunning figure.

Fiona, those diamonds are so sparkly. Are they expensive?

You mean this? We bought this during our honeymoon in Europe.

3-carat Burmese pigeon's blood ruby.

Only about $300,000 including the necklace.

$300,000.

No wonder it's so big and beautiful.

I told him not to waste money,

but he went and bought it when I was in the bathroom.

Anthony, the way you treat your wife puts a lot of pressure on us.

Knock it off, guys.

My wife's diamonds are at least 3 carats. Those are nothing, right?

Right, but I bought them myself!

OK, no fighting. Gordon, cheers.

Drink!

Everyone's here, shall we order? Sure, let's order.

OK...

Good job.

Fiona, you have such beautiful skin. Which skincare products do you use?

Well, although I always post videos to share my skincare routine,

I'm actually very lazy. Sometimes I just use water to wash my face and skip lotion.

What?

That's how you keep your skin beautiful? It must be your genes.

A beautiful model like you must have lots of rich admirers.

Why did you choose Anthony?

I'm curious how you chose your husband. Tell us about it.

Anthony, your wife is beautiful.

How did you win her over? Tell us your tricks.

You guys won't believe what happened two years ago.

One night I went clubbing with some friends as usual, and I saw Fiona, my wife,

drinking at the bar alone, looking gorgeous.

Lots of guys were approaching her.

One night I was drinking at the bar while waiting for my friends.

Suddenly a creepy guy approached me and talked dirty to me.

I didn't know what to do, until Anthony stepped up and told that guy

to leave the pretty girl alone.

How could I resist?

I don't know, either Fiona was too forward or I was too charming.

We ended up French kissing the first time we met.

She made the first move?

I wouldn't say that.

Kissing the first time you guys met?

So romantic and unforgettable!

His wife must be blind then.

What do you know? You're not me.

I wish I had such special moments with my husband.

Cheers! The first time here!

Hey, she's checking you out. See, so many beautiful girls here.

Flight attendants, models, and even TV actresses. Nice, huh?

OK, but not quite there yet.

You're so picky.

Check that girl out. Where are you going?

Miss, may I buy you a drink?

I'm drinking already.

You look familiar. Have we met before?

I don't know you. Are you hitting on me? Grow a few inches first.

What? You're late, man.

Are you even a man? Why did you badmouth me after we broke up?

How did I badmouth you? Tell me about it.

You told people I... Don't you dare mess with me!

Dickson's dumped you. Why won't you leave him alone?

You couldn't find another rich guy so you want him to take you back now?

A man with taste wouldn't want a pair of cheap stinky shoes.

You shut up! Lots of guys out there are fighting over me!

Really? Show us.

It's been a long day. I'm so tired.

Use the bath salts we bought in France. You'll feel much better.

I made your night, didn't I?

My beautiful wife is always the centre of attention.

I know where my value lie. That's exactly why you took me out to dinner.

Don't worry, I'm not stupid either.

You found a pair of snakeskin heels online for around $10,000. I'll buy them tonight.

Thank you, honey!

Hey, want to check out our new house?

Now? It's still under construction. What's there to see?

Well, let's call the agent and see if he can access the open house.

Now you're talking!

The agent is pretty smart. He left the lights on for us.

It's beautiful here! I can't wait to move in!

It won't be long. The $3 million from Dad will be our renovation fund.

It's going to look totally different. Let's check out the view from the balcony.

It's so beautiful!

I'm going to be the lady of the house here! I married the right man!

At dinner, your mom kept asking me where I lived,

whether it was private or public property.

When she heard I was renting, she frowned and looked disappointed.

Oh well, my mom has always wanted me to marry a rich man.

She's not against us dating, but getting married is another issue.

What makes a good husband in her opinion?

It's not that hard actually. A 2-3 carat engagement ring,

a cash gift of $880,000 for luck, and 30 tables at a 6-star hotel.

She read on the news about riding a rocket.

She said I should take a rocket for my honeymoon.

What?

Don't worry about what she said. Honeymoon in Europe should be OK.

And of course I won't be working after I get married.

Anything else?

Yes, must own a flat, but a shoebox apartment won't do. At least...

This is it!

The Apex?

Brand new, high level, panoramic sea view, at least two maid's rooms.

I'll see what I can do.

What's that supposed to mean? Are you proposing to me?

If I fulfil all those requirements, does that mean you'll marry me?

If I told you one day I couldn't afford the Apex, what would you do?

I would kill you.

I know you would, but what else?

I would definitely leave you.

Just kidding, silly.

I was kidding too, s...Sweetie.

I love this view!

Yan asked me to help you carry some stuff?

Stop talking and help me out.

How can we carry all this? Just hire a mover.

You're the mover.

I'm not.

Are you a man?

I hate it when people say that out loud in public.

I'll help you to show you I'm a man. Which one?

This one.

What? It's such a big box!

Hurry up!

Granny Miu, I've saved you some cardboard. Where's your trolley?

Someone stole my trolley when I was away! Even my wooden stool is gone!

It's OK, let me give you some money to buy a new one.

No, I don't need anyone's sympathy!

My late husband made me that wooden stool! It's irreplaceable!

Don't be sad.

Why don't you take mine? Hey, put the things back!

Hurry up! Push it up!

Thank you so much! Thank you! Be careful!

You gave her your trolley. What are we going to do?

You're a man, aren't you?

Let's go!

My cat has been missing for a few days.

If anyone has seen her,
