- Mr. Gao. - You are back.
Mr. Jie.
Liang You'an,
- didn't you leave the company? - Yes.
I'm now the manager at the tennis club of Y-Space Sports.
I'm back to reapply for a budget.
What a coincidence.
I heard Mr. Jiang's son,
Jiang Jiaojiao, plays at this club.
That's right.
I'm using this opportunity to clarify with everyone today.
For many years, Y-Space Sports has had the tradition of competing in tennis at a corporate level.
That's because Mr. Gao is an avid tennis player.
That's right, Mr. Jie's son chose to study tennis.
Of course, the good stuff should be kept within the family.
If he wants to train, he should train in an outstanding club like ours.
That's wonderful. It's like supporting our own business. Right?
But, Liang You'an, you just talked about approving the budget. Right?
I can see that you brought alcohol with you.
The amount you drink will show your sincerity.
How about this? I'll finish three glasses first to show my gratitude to these leaders.
Liang You'an!
Sorry, I'm late.
This is an athlete at our club, Song Sanchuan.
Who told you to drink a lot?
I asked her to. Is there a problem?
No problem.
Let's do this. I was late.
Manager Liang and I will propose a toast to you.
This young man looks energetic.
- Tennis youngster, how old are you? - 22 years old.
Work hard. Come, let's drink together.
Cheers, Mr. Gao.
Don't raise a pet fish. (Don't miss a single drop. Teasing one who didn't drink enough in the workplace)
Manager Liang, where are our seats?
Mr. Gao, let me show him to the seats first.
Enjoy your wine.
I was worried that I didn't tell you to wear formal attire today.
Not bad. You look handsome in a suit.
I was only slightly late and you were bullied by others?
So much alcohol, did you drink a lot?
Don't underestimate me. With that small volume and my alcohol tolerance?
You also did your hair.
I asked An Cong to help me.
- A wig? - What wig? It's real hair.
Seriously. A wig?
Next is our most wonderful and exciting annual musical chairs.
The rule is the same as the previous year.
The winner gets a wish fulfilled by Mr. Gao.
The winner from last year received a new car.
Please choose an outstanding candidate from each department to participate.
You can come up now.
I have a question.
The tennis club by Y-Space Sports is considered part of the company.
Can you let us participate today as a department, too?
Is that okay?
You can. It's fair and just.
Thank you, Mr. Gao.
Sit.
Let me do this.
That's right.
Go for it. You can do it.
[Price tag : ¥2688.00]
I see why he was late. He bought this on the spot.
Wait a second.
Let me say something.
The guy standing on this side,
I heard he is a tennis player at our club.
Everyone knows that the physique of an athlete
is different from white-collar employees.
So, if the game is not exciting, it's also not fun for us. Right?
I think, for the sake of fairness,
we will switch to another candidate to compete with him. Okay?
Sounds good.
Everyone knows my driver
who's also considered a long-serving staff of Y-Space Sports.
He also likes to exercise.
Let him go up and compete. Okay?
- Okay! - Da Qing, come up!
Okay, okay!
The game starts now!
♫ If we don't talk about worldly principles ♫
Great!
♫ Let your emotions run free, stop running from them ♫
♫ Do you want to go down the path ahead of you? ♫
♫ If all the reason and emotion ♫
♫ realize the answer was you in the end ♫
Okay. If you have any wishes, just bring it up.
♫ We're always thinking about how to do this ♫
♫ In order to not make any mistakes ♫
♫ That type of carefulness ♫
♫ Is so rare to find ♫

It's your turn.

♫ You will be loved, you will be loved ♫
♫ I want to be in your heart ♫
♫ I'm not afraid to stand still here ♫
♫ Every time I look back, you're there ♫
President Gao, in the new fiscal year, could you increase the budget for the tennis club?
Yes, I know.
We are at the bottom in performance every year.
That's why our budget must be approved monthly, and our budget always gets cut.
However, I believe if you increase our budget
and help us overcome the immediate crisis, I promise to you that
our club won't be at the bottom again for next year.
Great!
Sure, I approve.
In addition, here's another bonus.
In the future, your budget will be for three months instead of one month.
How is that?
Thank you, President Gao.
Sister, it feels more secure when money is received.
Adding an additional ¥300,000 to our annual budget takes effect when it is signed.
It still needs to go through the process before the money can be transferred.
Can you prioritize this task tomorrow at work?
I'm in a rush. I am really anxious. I need the money to hire a new coach.
This is not appropriate.
Sister, on behalf of the athletes at our club,
I want to propose a toast to you.
Sister, President Gao has spoken.
We will be receiving a quarterly budget.
You can transfer the money for three months all at once.
No, this is too sudden.
At the earliest, I can start next month.
Others don't have the authority, but you do. You have so much authority.
You can be flexible in handing this.
If you get this done, you don't need to see me every month. I won't annoy you, then.
This is not appropriate, okay?
Sister, please wipe your hands with the warm towel.
Have some fruits to sober up.
Liang You'an, you are really capable.
Don't try to mesmerize me.
Fine, just this once.
No exception for next time.
Come, the towel... Where did he go?
Liang You'an, where did she go?
We have money now.
- Pull your hand back. It's dangerous. - We have money now.
Pull your hand back.
You are quite capable.
What am I capable of?
It doesn't matter what you are capable of.
I'm telling you. What is important?
It's that we have money. We have money now!
Driver, we have money now!
It's all thanks to you tonight.
Of course, I'm also very talented. We are partners in crime.
I'll throw this money at the new coach.
All of the money for the new coach? Your stake is that high?
Of course. It's pointless if I use this money to fix miscellaneous stuff.
I'll spend the money on the core aspect and solve all problems.
As soon as the superstar coach arrives, we'll be fearless.
What if there's an overdraft next month?
- I'll still go to the company. - You'll go again?
Once the money runs out, I'll keep going there again and again.
I've thick skin. I'll get money no matter what.
Let's go together. We'll fight, cooperate, and be invincible.
Sure, I'll go with you but let's make this clear for next time.
I absolutely won't do that male club host's job next time.
So awkward.
Take it off.
Take off your clothes.
Liang You'an, did you drink too much?
Take it off. Take it off.
Take off your clothes.
What are you doing?
Why the rush? We are not even home yet.
- Driver, please focus on driving. Don't worry. - Take it off!
Driver, don't turn around.
Okay, don't move.
I will take it off.
Hurry up. What's taking so long?
It costs ¥2,688. I can't return it now!
Why would you return it? You can't.
This is on me. I'm buying it for you.
- How is that? - Still, it's really expensive.
Fight to the end and never back down. There's no route for retreat.
2-6-8-8 is such a great number. Take it as good fortune.
Let me keep this as a souvenir.
You don't believe me?
I'm transferring the money now. ¥2,688? I'll transfer it.
- Liang You'an. - Yes?
Are we keeping the pants?
You can't take off the pants!
Pants? Return them, I'm not buying the pants for you. The suit jacket is enough.
Just the suit jacket?
2-6-8-8.
Done.
Did you really transfer the money?
It's okay. I can afford it.
We have money now!
Stop screaming.
Be careful.
Careful of the gap here.
I'm okay. I'm not drunk.
Left or right side?
There's a kid in that unit.
Quiet down.
Are we here?
Is it 702?
Verification failed.
The fingerprint lock for my home is always like this.
No. Be gentle. What are you doing?
It's okay, it's fine. Let's enter the passcode.
Verification failed.
What's the passcode to my place?
How would I know?
That's right.
It's that Liang Tao's fault for causing me to change the passcode often.
Darn it, Liang Tao.
Enter it properly. You won't get it right this way.
Stop talking.
Liang You'an, how about this? Tell me your passcode.
I can enter it for you, okay? Let me help you.
Tell me now. You won't get it right this way.
8-8-0-9
7-9
Okay, I got it.
Stand still.
Here, lean on the wall.
Carry your own bag.
Hold it properly.
Slow down!
Liang You'an.
Are you ok?
Not drinking anymore.
I'm never drinking again.
Are you okay?
So depraved.
Walking to open the door is like opening a blind box for a day.
Hidden treasure in a blind box. Purchased boxes with unknown contents as surprises.
Morning.
Coach Xiao Chuan.
I wonder if I should have showed up or not.
You should.
If I hadn't stood my ground yesterday,
I would have become that kind of unscrupulous manager of athletes with unspoken rules.
That would have been sexual harassment in the workplace.
That's an exaggeration.
From the situation yesterday, Coach Xiao Chuan was enjoying it.
So much for friendship. You've known Song Sanchuan for so long and you didn't tell me.
No. What's there to say?
I was thinking back then.
Our paths may not cross in the future. We won't see each other again.
I didn't expect us to meet again.
I didn't expect him to turn into a magic weapon for my comeback.
Why do I feel this magic weapon has the chance to be privatized?
Stop talking, he's only 22 years old.
Just thinking about the scene yesterday, I feel like I committed a crime.
So what if he's 22 years old?
You can get married at 22 years old. How is it a crime?
Why do you have thoughts like this?
Rather, I think your life needs nourishment from something fragrant and sweet.
Come.
Try my freshly brewed coffee.
It's good.
Thanks.
I thought you were always hanging out with the younger guys
so that you wouldn't have this kind of decadent idea again.
I did have this idea recently after joining the club.
Seriously, you don't even know the waves of frustration I've been feeling lately.
In the past, I was particularly proud of all the forms and presentations.
No one fills out such things at the club now.
These kids are defiant.
On the contrary, except for Jiang Jiaojiao who was a little wary of him,
I think everyone likes Song Sanchuan a lot.
After joining the tennis club with him, our sociability traits have been reversed.
No, no. I don't have time for it.
You should review it.
Frankly speaking,
I am too embarrassed to go towards them.
I know that when I go over there, they will scatter.
I compiled some of the characteristics of everyone's techniques.
If you have time, take a look.
I'll be the referee.
I'll be referee. Where are the points?
The points. Get me another tennis ball.
- Sanchuan, come. Get your tennis ball and join me. - Okay.
I found out for the first time since I was an assistant, those intelligent, sensitive,
- and the so-called EQ that restrained emotions... - I'll leave it here.
don't work on these kids.
The more I coaxed, the more I pretended to smile, the more no one wanted to listen to me.
Instead, Song Sanchuan has a very straightforward attitude.
He blends in so well in the club.
Although he's rather straightforward, he doesn't talk big or speak against his will.
He's very likable.
I then realized, age is not a gap but a barrier.
We are not in the same dimension.
I'll enter the passcode for you. Tell me. You won't get it right.
Are you sober?
Are you okay?
I'm fine. Extremely well. Sorry, I don't remember what happened last night.
Luo Nian said you sent me back. Thank you.
Hahaha.
I'll send you the address and time for the challenge match tomorrow.
Inform everyone, especially Jiang Jiaojiao. Make sure he goes to the match.
Understood.
Nothing but work in her head.
Why did you call me here?
What new tricks are you up to today?
The usual rules. See that lake in front of you?
I rented the fishing gear. See you at the livestreaming.
What's so difficult about this? Just wait and see.
It's really a natural oxygen bar here.
There are too many mosquitoes.
If you're here to fish, pay attention to protection against mosquitoes and sunlight.
What are you looking at? So absorbed.
Fine. You don't share good stuff with your buddy anymore.
Have you ever raised an electronic pet?
What?
You won't understand even if I tell you. Stop asking.
By the way,
you haven't been training for days. The match is tomorrow.
What do you think?
If you keep arguing with her, do you still want to train or not?
Train. I will definitely train,
but I figured it out.
My dad sent her here, possibly to torture me to make me leave.
If I don't go for training, he will get what he wants.
So, I'll continue to fight.
I think it is not necessary.
Liang You'an is quite a good manager. At least she looks pretty.
Who doesn't want to train with a pretty lady?
You... I say...
Never mind.
This is what you are good at.
No, my analysis is right.
Cut the crap. Even eating cannot stop you from talking.
[The 8th "LIKU CUP" Tennis Tournament]
Come on!
Come on! Yes!
[Jiang Jiaojiao vs Li Miao, 2:6, 2:5]
It shouldn't be.
This opponent is obviously not at the same level as Jiaojiao.
He only has a backhand as the winning strategy.
By right, Jiaojiao should be able to win this round.
It's obvious he didn't attend training for the past two days,
He lost his form today.
I told him to attend training but he refused.
And now? He's being thrashed.
Coach Wang will be angry if he sees this.
Jiang Jiaojiao!
What are you doing? This is the changing room for men.
I know you've been fighting with me since Coach Wang left.
It's fine. I can tolerate you.
But as an athlete,
your lack of enthusiasm for training and unexplained absences
caused you to be unmotivated on the court for the official game today!
You don't even respect your sport.
Fine.
I will help you to smash it to save the trouble.
- Are you crazy?! - If you don't want to play, leave!
I'm warning you, don't come here.
I'm not sure of what I can do today.
You let yourself go to seed for training and tournaments,
I want to see what other worse things you can do.
Big Brother!
Are you really giving up on your professional sports career?
Isn't it just about Coach Wang?
You really can't get over it, can you?
Coach Wang left because he wants you to change for the better.
And not because he wants you to give up on yourself here.
If you are a coward and dare not go forward,
don't blame it on Liang You'an.
Big Brother, I have known Liang You'an longer than you.
My dad personally brought her here. How can I not know?
They are the same kind of people. They seek only profits.
Anyone who gets in her way of making money, will leave.
Without earnings, the club will close tomorrow.
- Without earnings, what will your dad set up the club for you with? - He didn't set up the club for me.
To prove that, you have to show everyone your results.
If you lose to everyone on the court,
this will always be a club for a "pampered prince." They will always say this to make you feel disgusted.
Yes, Liang You'an doesn't know how to play tennis.
But she works overtime every day to read up on the materials.
She researches instructional videos and latest techniques to find the best new coach.
You also knows that our club lacks funds.
Because of this, she often goes back to Y-Space Sports to beg for help. - Stop talking!
Come in.
Why you are here?
These are the remaining supplies from today's match. Where should I put this?
Put it on the coffee table.
Let me take a look.
There are still many leftovers.
That money is already in the bank.
When this new coach starts work, I reckon those brats can be fixed.
What happened to your hand?
It must be from when I smashed the racket this afternoon. I used too much force.
Why did you exert so much force?
It will take at least three days for the swelling to go down.
It's okay.
It will be fine when I apply some medicine when I get home.
Go back now.
I still have lots of work to do. I still need to work on the proposal.
Manager Liang,
in your eyes and heart now,
is it just only the club?
You...
Although sometimes you are warm and considerate,
sometimes you are really like an iron wall.
Your heart is like a moat surrounded by a protective wall.
What's with your blind analysis?
Jiaojiao is not that difficult to handle.
He is just... a stubborn person who is very emotional.
So, you need to use sincerity in exchange for sincerity.
These are for you both. They are chilled.
- Chilled? - Thank you!
It's not right.
[I'm inviting you for dinner tonight at 7:00 p.m. Be there or be square. Liang You'an]
Competing with guts?
Who's afraid of who?
[Xiang Li Bowl Chicken]
Dai Yi!
Put it down. Put it down. Let's drink water instead.
No. This doesn't have much alcohol content.
It's 5%. It's still alcohol.
- It contains more alcohol than beer. Put it down. - Fine.
Wait.
Don't put it down. Give it to me.
Look at you.
Where's Liang You'an?
She made the appointment with us and she's late by half an hour.
She said she'd be here soon and we can start without her.
I know.
Someone will not enjoy his dinner if I'm here today.
That's why I'm purposely late.
I'm treating everyone to the meal today. First, let me apologize.
Jiang Jiaojiao, I'm sorry.
I broke your racket. I was impulsive. I was wrong. My apologies.
The new coach hasn't arrived yet since Coach Wang left. Your training has been held up.
This is my fault.
I know you can drink.
Didn't you drink a lot at the Y-Space Sports' banquet?
Look.
Take a look at this.
This is Manager Liang drinking at the Y-Space Sports' banquet.
I know some of you do not like me
but there are certain things I have to do.
Have to do?
Don't you have any backbone?
We are losers but that's not for you to say here.
From the bottom of your heart, you look down on our good-for-nothing tennis club. Right?
I drank to be subservient and humbled myself to ask for funds.
But in my heart, I never looked down on our club.
On the contrary, all my efforts were to prove to others that we can do it.
Those who want our club to close.
Those who don't believe you can do it.
I feel they don't understand you at all.
Jiang Jiaojiao, you may look arrogant,
but you're actually very affectionate.
You lost your temper because Coach Wang left.
Because he was your ex-coach.
You have more than just a coach and student relationship with him.
It's because you love tennis, too.
Now that Coach Wang has left, are you really going to stop where you are?
Chen Zhe, I've always wanted to thank you
because you are the one with the most passion.
When Song Shanchuan first joined the club, you were the first to chat with him and coach him.
Without you, he wouldn't have fit in with the team that quickly.
Dai Yi, don't think that you are young,
you're very mature and willing to share.
You always share your techniques with others without reservation.
I haven't been with the club for long
but I have faith in everyone.
I'm even a bit envious of you.
You're in your early twenties and you're talented.
You control your life with just a racket. How wonderful.
Hence, I don't want to see you waste your talent with such good qualifications.
If we don't follow your methods, it is a waste. Right?
You can disregard my methods. You can tell me yours.
If you don't speak up, how would I know your goals?!
Let me speak first.
After I joined, you taught me what you are best at.
This is something I didn't dare to dream of before I joined.
My goal is...
to make a successful transition from badminton to tennis.
I will rely on my capability to stay in the club.
Chen Zhe, what about you?
Goals or not, I hate hearing this.
I don't have any goals. Since I was young, my parents didn't have much expectations from me.
So, I'll pass.
I think tennis is too difficult. I wouldn't play if it weren't for the test.
Anyway, I just want to pass the test in one go and never play tennis again.
Jiaojiao, talk about your goals too.
That's right.
I want to play at high-ranking matches and let my dad watch me take the championship.
Okay, great.
Today, we are looked down by others
but we can't keep letting others look down on us.
Play well and achieve results. No one will look down on us again.
Come on.
I have a question. We have spoken our true feelings.
Manager Liang, you haven't said yours.
That's just who she is.
She got the truth out of us, but she'll never reveal anything about herself.
I have an unreliable father.
He divorced my mother.
Back then, I held back my anger and said that, for the rest of my life,
I would never see him again.
But in my third year of college, I had a campus romance with a senior student who stayed back to work after graduation.
Someone reported us.
To save himself, he said I seduced him.
A campus romance ended and I received a letter of dismissal.
I had no choice but to go abroad.
I didn't have enough money, so I had to borrow from my father.
After that, I joined Y-Space Sports.
I worked as an executive assistant for eight years.
I kept learning to look into other people's eyes, be slick in social interactions, and learned to do things.
Thinking about it, the first 30 years of my life was like playing at an away match.
I never had real confidence.
Hey.
There's no point telling us how miserable you are.
It seems like we guys are bullying you.
I don't think my life is miserable.
The past 30 years has only been a small part of my life.
Now that I have met this group of young and talented athletes,
I think my life...
is going to change from playing away matches to home matches.
The new coach will be here soon.
I'm definitely going to stick to this path.
It's up to you to decide whether you want to follow me.
