How to pronounce "此类"

[Episode 7]

Zhaoyuan.

Fine, Zhou Zhaoyuan, Zhou Zhaoyuan.

I want to apply to military school

and serve on the front lines against the Japanese.

That's great.

Then you're sure to become an excellent soldier.

Don't laugh. I mean it.

I mean it, too.

If you need it,

I'll write you a recommendation letter.

Right now, all I want is to graduate from middle school as soon as possible.

There was a man in the Song dynasty

who saw his crops weren't growing, so he pulled them up

and went home exhausted.

What does that mean?

Pulling up seedlings to help them grow never works.

See?

You really should read more books.

I'm done with you.

Are you mad?

No.

I'll take you out for butterfly cookies.

Two boxes.

Okay.

Deal.

Let's go.

Thanks for helping me this time.

What do you mean?

It's a gift for your grand opening.

Have a seat.

I'm sorry.

I used to be selfish

and foolish,

always blind to my own faults.

Coming back to the old house

seeing it like this

makes me truly happy.

And seeing your maternity hospital doing so well,

I'm genuinely

happy for you, too.

I mean it.

Since Mom is staying at your place,

you should take good care of her.

I understand.

Mom's staying with me

and is being well taken care of,

so don't worry.

Your sister-in-law

cooks three meals a day,

and all of them Mom's favorites.

When I have time,

I also take her out for walks

and chats.

Mom's really happy.

It's just that sometimes

she talks to herself,

saying she misses you a lot.

Why don't you go visit her

when you're not busy?

I'm really sorry.

This gift

isn't expensive.

Just think of it as a small token

of my appreciation for your grand opening,

okay?

Please take good care of Meina.

She's very delicate,

and since it's her first pregnancy,

please look after her.

Meina?

Shao Meina?

The relative Sis brought over yesterday?

Yeah.

What's your relationship with her?

No, our mom

is really happy this time.

I mean...

Mom asked

if you could

waive that fee for her.

We're all family.

Can't you just waive the fee?

Sis,

what are you doing?

Siyun is here.

Her feet are swollen, so I'm soaking them for her.

Come with me to my office.

You go ahead then.

When you come back, peel two apples for me.

Get out of the way.

What are you looking at?

I'm not done washing my feet.

I'll help you.

Why are you so afraid of your sister?

Didn't you say this hospital is yours?

She's just helping you out, isn't she?

I'm not afraid of her.

She's my little sister.

I was being nice to her.

You're not lying to me, are you?

Why would I lie to you?

I've been running this hospital for quite a while.

Why did you wash her feet?

All I can do

is take care of the Lin family.

You don't need to do things like that!

It's fine.

I can endure it.

You can endure it?

For how long?

For a lifetime?

I'll endure it...

for as long as it takes.

Mr. Cheng.

One of the few optimists.

I'd like to ask you a favor.

Some of my student friends

want to join the volunteer army in the northeast.

Wu Xiaoshan?

Yes.

Sure,

I'll make the arrangements.

Thank you.

I'd like to ask you a favor, too.

We urgently need a batch of medicine

and medical equipment.

Here's the medicine list and the deposit.

I only have one month

to gather and send them to the front lines.

It's not easy to find such a large quantity

of medicine and equipment.

I'll figure something out.

Keep the money.

I'll cover the cost.

That's a lot of money.

Consider it a token of my appreciation.

Fine.

I'll contact you

in a month.

Take care.

Cheng Ao, Cheng Ao.

Come and eat.

You're back.

Why didn't you tell us in advance?

I wanted to surprise you.

Go get Master.

Okay.

Come try my pickled cabbage pork stew.

This pot, half a pig,

and a few pounds of pickled cabbage—

I carried them all back from the Northeast.

Here.

Did you go to the Northeast to be a chef?

Of course not.

I only cook for family.

Dad.

You're back.

You're only back because you squandered all your money, right?

No, that's not it.

Call her Mom.

Mom.

It's your turn.

Madam Yanhong.

This is Dalun.

But don't believe

a word he says.

This is Cheng Ao,

our family's great lawyer.

Father, you're really something.

I just got back,

and suddenly there's another little brother.

You're still so full of energy at your age.

Enough nonsense.

Say it. Why are you back this time?

I came back to look after you.

I can't afford that kind of care.

Seriously,

I came back

with a government job this time.

Wherever you work,

don't cause me any more trouble.

Don't worry.

It's good to have you back.

How were things with the Japanese in the Northeast?

Cheng Ao, what are you talking about?

How could I ever have dealings with them?

Dad taught us from childhood

never to deal with the Japanese.

Dad, I've always kept that in mind.

So, what did you cook?

Let me see.

Have a seat, Yanhong.

Dalun,

have the brothers sit and eat.

Everyone, come sit and keep eating.

Cheng Ao,

I was gone for just a while,

and now I have another brother?

How would I know?

It's my first time seeing her, too.

How do you know it's a boy?

I've actually looked into this.

If the belly is pointy, it's a boy.

If it's round, it's a girl.

Hurry up.

Coming.

Here, Father.

Here, Mom.

Thank you.

Thank you, my dear.

Dad.

Why not sit there?

I just got back, so I wanted to sit close to you.

Aren't you hot?

This jacket's yours now.

Is it good?

Did you rob a salt vendor or what?

Try it yourself.

Yeah, it seems a bit salty.

Just a bit?

Don't drink too much.

[Sinan Maternity Hospital]

Who are you?

I'm Lin Jinghan's daughter.

Oh, it's you. Lin Jinghan told me about you.

I brought you some food.

Did you make all this yourself?

There are vegetables, meat, and soup.

Go ahead, eat.

You're so thoughtful.

My dad said

we should treat you well.

Things were better before.

At least this house was still ours.

What did you say?

When Grandpa was alive,

our family was very wealthy.

Later, my grandpa passed away,

and my dad ran up a lot of debt,

so this house was mortgaged to his creditor.

He used all the money from selling the house to pay off debts.

Not a single penny was left.

He still hasn't paid off the bank loans.

My dad's broke.

He's got nothing but debt.

You're saying Lin Jinghan's broke?

Isn't this hospital his?

This hospital isn't my father's.

It belongs to my aunt.

It has nothing to do with him.

He still owes the money for your hospitalization.

Dad.

What are you doing here?

I came to bring her food.

Food's here. I'll get going.

Come, sit here.

What did she come here for?

Your daughter just told me

that you're broke,

and this hospital isn't yours either.

Was she telling the truth?

Of course not!

She lied to you.

That kid never tells the truth.

Jinghan, be honest with me.

I'm with you,

carrying your baby

because I love you for who you are,

not for your money.

Even if you're broke,

it doesn't matter.

We can still earn together.

But I hope the one I love

tells me the truth

and doesn't lie.

I'll tell you the truth.

Promise you won't get mad?

Sure.

Couples should be honest with each other.

Yes,

I did lie to you.

But wasn't that because I love you?

I...

I just...

I was just afraid that in my state,

I'd lose you.

I'm not having this baby!

I never should've married a woman like you.

Sis,

I don't pity you.

I care about you.

I know you want to be a good daughter-in-law to the Lin family,

and a good mother to your children.

But sometimes, when it's necessary,

you need to be selfish

and think more about yourself.

I understand what you mean.

I've thought about that too.

Whenever Lin Jinghan acts ridiculously,

I really want to take my kids

and leave the Lin family without looking back.

But where could I go?

Back to my parents' home?

I can already picture the villagers

drowning me with their gossip.

I can hardly support myself.

I can't let my kids suffer with me, can I?

It's not that you can't—

you just don't dare.

You still have me.

Mom, I avenged you.

What do you mean?

You'll see when we get there.

Let's go.

Hurry up.

Why is your nose bleeding?

Yi's soup is good.

I just had a few sips.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Then let me tell you something.

Go ahead.

I already covered the medical bills

from the past few days.

But the hospital shareholders said

if you don't pay the rest,

they'll sue you.

You could even be detained.

Don't bring that up with me.

My baby's not even born yet.

Why should I pay the rest now?

Besides,

don't treat family like outsiders.

We're family.

Asking me for money

only hurts our feelings.

Auntie, you already tried talking to him.

My dad just won't listen. Let's go.

Wipe your nose.

What should we do?

Are they really going to detain you?

Actually,

our house is pretty comfortable.

Why don't we just go home?

Besides,

If I get detained,

no one will take care of you.

You still need care after childbirth.

Sometimes you put up with the small stuff for the bigger plan.

How did I marry such a useless man?

Honey...

Do you want me to slap you again?

Let's pack up.

Stay right there.

Zeng Dalun.

Why are you back?

When did you get back?

I just got back.

Hold on. Why are you dressed like that?

Shouldn't you be in a long gown

with a bunch of sidekicks behind you?

You came here today—

Did you get yourself into trouble again?

That mess with Xiu last time—

you caused such a big scene!

Your father's been cleaning up after you every day.

You're the eldest son of the Zeng family.

Can't you give your family a break?

So tell me, what is it this time?

Let's see if I can help.

No need.

I found a job.

With your status, you don't need to find a job.

Just don't cause your father more trouble.

I'm working for Mr. Dai now.

Mr. Dai?

Which Mr. Dai?

How many Mr. Dais do you think there are?

Dalun,

it's been ages

since we last met.

How about this? Tomorrow night, dinner's on me.

Let me throw you a welcome party, okay?

Hello, this is Pingzheng Law Firm.

Hello?

This is Shen Yiqun.

What's wrong?

Do me a favor.

Set up a dinner for me and Zeng Dalun.

Why do you want to have dinner with Dalun?

Don't ask why.

Just set it up for me.

I'll have someone send you the address tomorrow.

Alright, got it.

[Registration Counter]

I never thought

you'd actually open a hospital on your own.

And it's doing quite well.

That's thanks to Mrs. Shen's foresight.

I planned to leave without a word,

but then I thought,

I should come and see you one last time.

Where are you going?

I'm going abroad to study.

That's great.

What will you study?

Aren't you going to ask me?

What are you going to study?

I'm going to New York to study finance.

You should work hard.

When I'm back from the U.S.,

I'll buy your hospital.

Goodbye, Lin Siyun.

I thought she'd study medicine.

Why?

To follow in your footsteps.

You're so outstanding.

Every girl in Shanghai

sees you as a role model, right?

Didn't you notice

she didn’t even look at you just now?

Do you know why?

Why?

Cheng Ao,

you've lost your charm.

Mom, if you keep living in that house,

Dad and his mistress will drive you crazy!

Why don't you come work with Auntie?

Look at Mrs. Chen—she can't even read

but she's learning to be a midwife with Auntie.

Mom, don't you see?

Dad never treated us as decent human beings.

He sold me to the Zhu family

just to pay off his gambling debt.

And now he's even making you take care of his mistress,

which triggered your heart disease!

Mom, my little brother's still so young.

We all need you.

Dr. Lin,

I have something important to ask.

That's quite a lot.

These medicines and equipment are hard to get,

and they're all under quota limits.

The amount you're asking for is so large.

Even if I gave you the hospital's entire stock,

it still wouldn't be enough.

How about this?

I’ll find a way.

I'll order more under the hospital's name.

I only have one month

to gather this batch of medicine.

Your hospital alone definitely won't cover it.

If I go to the national hospital,

it surely will raise suspicion.

So I'm thinking of going through foreign hospitals,

like the missionary hospital or the Red Cross hospital.

Do you have connections there?

I know people at both.

But the quantity you're asking for is huge.

You'd better come up with a convincing reason.

Why are you buying

so much medicine?

Getting medical supplies is obviously

for saving lives and doing good deeds.

What good deeds?

I can't tell you right now.

You're asking me for a favor, and you won't even tell me that?

I'll tell you when the time is right.

What's wrong with you?

Asking for a favor, but only telling half the story.

What's wrong with you?

You're way too curious.

I'm not curious

about everyone, okay?

You're here.

You got here pretty early.

Since I'm having dinner with my two best brothers,

of course I had to come early to set things up.

Cheng Ao,

since you invited us,

you should take the main seat.

Sit.

Dalun,

come and sit here.

Give me your glass.

Alright.

My two brothers,

I'm a few years older than you two,

so let me say a few words first, okay?

I came early,

so I went ahead and ordered the dishes.

There are meat and vegetables, quite a feast.

Cheng Ao, for this first glass,

don't drink it yet.

I want to toast Dalun.

Dalun,

you've been away for quite a long time.

You must've suffered a lot

and faced some hardships out there,

right?

But now you're back,

and we're here to welcome you home.

Cheers.

Cheng Ao, let me tell you.

Dalun's done well in his study.

He came back with real accomplishments.

Now he's working for Mr. Dai.

Trust me,

in two years at most,

Dalun will definitely be

the top leader in our department.

By then,

I'll serve you with all I've got.

Alright, it's time to eat.

Let's raise our glasses

and make a toast.

Cheers.

Shen Yiqun.

I really hate you.

You should know that, right?

I really had no idea.

Did I do something wrong

that upset you?

Tell me and I'll change.

Cheng Ao.

Don't you find him annoying as well?

Let's eat.

Shen Yiqun.

Look how hypocritical you are.

You always tell people what they want to hear.

Especially when you meet someone,

you always put on that fake smile.

It's disgusting.

It makes me sick.

You know what?

You're nothing but a hypocrite.

Do you think you deserve to dine with me?

Who do you think you are?

Stand up.

Go take a piss

and take a look at yourself.

Were you even born a human?

Dalun.

You don't want to eat properly, huh?

Then let me treat you to something else.

You brought the military police to dine with me?

No,

Cheng Ao, don't get the wrong idea.

We're brothers.

I trust you completely.

But him?

He's not worthy.

Zeng Dalun.

You still don't know your place.

You've only been in the Shanghai circle for a few years,

and you're already this arrogant?

A gang has its rules, and a family has its own laws.

In terms of seniority,

you're nowhere close to me.

Take him out.

Teach him a lesson.

Alright, alright.

Dalun, apologize to him.

Do you think this is acceptable?

You're really tough.

When you act tough like this,

it actually scares me a little.

I can't just let a tiger return to the mountain.

So...

you'd better not leave.

Kill him.

It doesn't take two guns to kill one man.

Come on.

Tell your men to do it.

Come on.

Come on!

Dalun,

let's go.

You didn't bring the military police this time?

It was my fault

for bringing you two together for a meal.

I'm sorry.

I just hope you're not mad.

Wait a minute.

This is the first time

I've ever drunk like this for a man.

The last time I drank like this,

I was 20 years old.

I drank like that for a girl.

She was going to study abroad,

and I rode my bike to see her off.

Where are you going?

I'm going to see a movie.

Sis,

I really didn't expect

Yi could convince you and Mom.

I'm quite surprised.

She's your mother's eldest grandchild.

Don't you know her well?

Siyun.

I don't know anything about this.

Can I really make it?

Sis,

don't be nervous.

I'll teach you step by step.

Siyun,

thank you.

Don't be formal with me.

Alright, I won't be formal then.

I'll definitely try my best to learn.

Let's go

Let's go.

Dalun, what happened to your hand?

It's nothing.

I got injured during a mission.

It's good that it's nothing serious.

I have something to tell both of you.

We've recently received intel

that the Communist Party

is planning several large-scale operations in Shanghai.

I want both of you to investigate it.

You must find out

exactly what they're plotting.

Director,

I've received intel on this too.

The moment I got the message,

I sent people to investigate.

I believe we'll have results soon.

Jin.

This is a list

of Communists I've recently captured,

including some pro-Communist people.

Recruit those we can,

and for the rest,

arrest them all.

Those who resist publicly,

kill them all.

But...

do not reveal your identity.

Yiqun,

Dalun's been working at the periphery for us.

You two must stay united

and work diligently together.

The organization is fair with rewards and punishments.

Director, rest assured,

we'll work hard

and stay united.

Good. Cheers.

[Light Theater]

About that batch of medicine you mentioned last time,

I've thought of a solution.

Sichuan is currently

suffering from famine and plague.

We can hold a charity fundraiser

for the disaster victims under the hospital's name.

First, we can actually help the victims.

Second, it gives you a cover

to collect the medicine and equipment you need.

You can blend in legitimately

without arousing suspicion.

I thought of that too.

With such a large demand,

a charity fundraiser is the only option.

And with this excuse,

we can also contact the local Red Cross hospital.

They must have

a large quantity of this type of medicine.

We're on the same page.

That solves the supply problem.

But with the current drug controls,

have you figured out how to

move them from Shanghai to your destination?

Not yet.

Let's watch the movie first.

Someone's following us.

Don't look.

It could be one of Zeng Dalun's men.

Cheng Ao,

your hands are sweating.

There's no Zeng Dalun's people here at all, right?

Maybe I was mistaken.

It's nice holding hands while watching a movie like this.

[Footprints of Change]

Zhaoyuan.

Fine, Zhou Zhaoyuan, Zhou Zhaoyuan.

I want to apply to military school

and serve on the front lines against the Japanese.

Shao Meina?

The relative Sis brought over yesterday?

Yeah.

What's your relationship with her?

No, our mom

is really happy this time.

I mean...

Mom asked

if you could

waive that fee for her.

We're all family.

Can't you just waive the fee?

Sis,

what are you doing?

Siyun is here.

Her feet are swollen, so I'm soaking them for her.

Come with me to my office.

You go ahead then.

When you come back, peel two apples for me.

Don't drink too much.

[Sinan Maternity Hospital]

Who are you?

I'm Lin Jinghan's daughter.

Oh, it's you. Lin Jinghan told me about you.

I brought you some food.

Did you make all this yourself?

There are vegetables, meat, and soup.

Go ahead, eat.

You're so thoughtful.

My dad said

we should treat you well.

Things were better before.

At least this house was still ours.

What did you say?

When Grandpa was alive,

our family was very wealthy.

Later, my grandpa passed away,

and my dad ran up a lot of debt,

so this house was mortgaged to his creditor.

He used all the money from selling the house to pay off debts.

Not a single penny was left.

He still hasn't paid off the bank loans.

My dad's broke.

He's got nothing but debt.

You're saying Lin Jinghan's broke?

Isn't this hospital his?

This hospital isn't my father's.

It belongs to my aunt.

It has nothing to do with him.

He still owes the money for your hospitalization.

Dad.

What are you doing here?

I came to bring her food.

Food's here. I'll get going.

Come, sit here.

What did she come here for?

Your daughter just told me

that you're broke,

and this hospital isn't yours either.

Was she telling the truth?

Of course not!

She lied to you.

That kid never tells the truth.

Jinghan, be honest with me.

I'm with you,

carrying your baby

because I love you for who you are,

not for your money.

Even if you're broke,

it doesn't matter.

We can still earn together.

But I hope the one I love

tells me the truth

and doesn't lie.

I'll tell you the truth.

Promise you won't get mad?

Sure.

Couples should be honest with each other.

Yes,

I did lie to you.

But wasn't that because I love you?

I...

I just...

I was just afraid that in my state,

I'd lose you.

I'm not having this baby!

I never should've married a woman like you.

Sis,

I don't pity you.

I care about you.

I know you want to be a good daughter-in-law to the Lin family,

and a good mother to your children.

But sometimes, when it's necessary,

you need to be selfish

and think more about yourself.

I understand what you mean.

I've thought about that too.

Whenever Lin Jinghan acts ridiculously,

I really want to take my kids

and leave the Lin family without looking back.

But where could I go?

Back to my parents' home?

I can already picture the villagers

drowning me with their gossip.

I can hardly support myself.

I can't let my kids suffer with me, can I?

It's not that you can't—

you just don't dare.

You still have me.

Mom, I avenged you.

What do you mean?

You'll see when we get there.

Let's go.

Hurry up.

Why is your nose bleeding?

Yi's soup is good.

I just had a few sips.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Then let me tell you something.

Go ahead.

I already covered the medical bills

from the past few days.

But the hospital shareholders said

if you don't pay the rest,

they'll sue you.

You could even be detained.

Don't bring that up with me.

My baby's not even born yet.

Why should I pay the rest now?

Besides,

don't treat family like outsiders.

We're family.

Asking me for money

only hurts our feelings.

Auntie, you already tried talking to him.

My dad just won't listen. Let's go.

Wipe your nose.

What should we do?

Are they really going to detain you?

Actually,

our house is pretty comfortable.

Why don't we just go home?

Besides,

If I get detained,

no one will take care of you.

You still need care after childbirth.

Sometimes you put up with the small stuff for the bigger plan.

How did I marry such a useless man?

Honey...

Do you want me to slap you again?

Let's pack up.

Stay right there.

Zeng Dalun.

Why are you back?

When did you get back?

I just got back.

Hold on. Why are you dressed like that?

Shouldn't you be in a long gown

with a bunch of sidekicks behind you?

You came here today—

Did you get yourself into trouble again?

That mess with Xiu last time—

you caused such a big scene!

Your father's been cleaning up after you every day.

You're the eldest son of the Zeng family.

Can't you give your family a break?

So tell me, what is it this time?

Let's see if I can help.

No need.

I found a job.

With your status, you don't need to find a job.

Just don't cause your father more trouble.

I'm working for Mr. Dai now.

Mr. Dai?

Which Mr. Dai?

How many Mr. Dais do you think there are?

Dalun,

it's been ages

since we last met.

How about this? Tomorrow night, dinner's on me.

Let me throw you a welcome party, okay?

Hello, this is Pingzheng Law Firm.

Hello?

This is Shen Yiqun.

What's wrong?

Do me a favor.

Set up a dinner for me and Zeng Dalun.

Why do you want to have dinner with Dalun?

Don't ask why.

Just set it up for me.

I'll have someone send you the address tomorrow.

Alright, got it.

[Registration Counter]

I never thought

you'd actually open a hospital on your own.

And it's doing quite well.

That's thanks to Mrs. Shen's foresight.

I planned to leave without a word,

but then I thought,

I should come and see you one last time.

Where are you going?

I'm going abroad to study.

That's great.

What will you study?

Aren't you going to ask me?

What are you going to study?

I'm going to New York to study finance.

You should work hard.

When I'm back from the U.S.,

I'll buy your hospital.

Goodbye, Lin Siyun.

I thought she'd study medicine.

Why?

To follow in your footsteps.

You're so outstanding.

Every girl in Shanghai

sees you as a role model, right?

Didn't you notice

she didn’t even look at you just now?

Do you know why?

Why?

Cheng Ao,

you've lost your charm.

Mom, if you keep living in that house,

Dad and his mistress will drive you crazy!

Why don't you come work with Auntie?

Look at Mrs. Chen—she can't even read

but she's learning to be a midwife with Auntie.

Mom, don't you see?

Dad never treated us as decent human beings.

He sold me to the Zhu family

just to pay off his gambling debt.

And now he's even making you take care of his mistress,

which triggered your heart disease!

Mom, my little brother's still so young.

We all need you.

Dr. Lin,

I have something important to ask.

That's quite a lot.

These medicines and equipment are hard to get,

and they're all under quota limits.

The amount you're asking for is so large.

Even if I gave you the hospital's entire stock,

it still wouldn't be enough.

How about this?

I’ll find a way.

I'll order more under the hospital's name.

I only have one month

to gather this batch of medicine.

Your hospital alone definitely won't cover it.

If I go to the national hospital,

it surely will raise suspicion.

So I'm thinking of going through foreign hospitals,

like the missionary hospital or the Red Cross hospital.

Do you have connections there?

I know people at both.

But the quantity you're asking for is huge.

You'd better come up with a convincing reason.

Why are you buying

so much medicine?

Getting medical supplies is obviously

for saving lives and doing good deeds.

What good deeds?

I can't tell you right now.

You're asking me for a favor, and you won't even tell me that?

I'll tell you when the time is right.

What's wrong with you?

Asking for a favor, but only telling half the story.

What's wrong with you?

You're way too curious.

I'm not curious

about everyone, okay?

You're here.

You got here pretty early.

Since I'm having dinner with my two best brothers,

of course I had to come early to set things up.

Cheng Ao,

since you invited us,

you should take the main seat.

Sit.

Dalun,

come and sit here.

Give me your glass.

Alright.

My two brothers,

I'm a few years older than you two,

so let me say a few words first, okay?

I came early,

so I went ahead and ordered the dishes.

There are meat and vegetables, quite a feast.

Cheng Ao, for this first glass,

don't drink it yet.

I want to toast Dalun.

Dalun,

you've been away for quite a long time.

You must've suffered a lot

and faced some hardships out there,

right?

But now you're back,

and we're here to welcome you home.

Cheers.

Cheng Ao, let me tell you.

Dalun's done well in his study.

He came back with real accomplishments.

Now he's working for Mr. Dai.

Trust me,

in two years at most,

Dalun will definitely be

the top leader in our department.

By then,

I'll serve you with all I've got.

Alright, it's time to eat.

Let's raise our glasses

and make a toast.

Cheers.

Shen Yiqun.

I really hate you.

You should know that, right?

I really had no idea.

Did I do something wrong

that upset you?

Tell me and I'll change.

Cheng Ao.

Don't you find him annoying as well?

Let's eat.

Shen Yiqun.

Look how hypocritical you are.

You always tell people what they want to hear.

Especially when you meet someone,

you always put on that fake smile.

It's disgusting.

It makes me sick.

You know what?

You're nothing but a hypocrite.

Do you think you deserve to dine with me?

Who do you think you are?

Stand up.

Go take a piss

and take a look at yourself.

Were you even born a human?

Dalun.

You don't want to eat properly, huh?

Then let me treat you to something else.

You brought the military police to dine with me?

No,

Cheng Ao, don't get the wrong idea.

We're brothers.

I trust you completely.

But him?

He's not worthy.

Zeng Dalun.

You still don't know your place.

You've only been in the Shanghai circle for a few years,

and you're already this arrogant?

A gang has its rules, and a family has its own laws.

In terms of seniority,

you're nowhere close to me.

Take him out.

Teach him a lesson.

Alright, alright.

Dalun, apologize to him.

Do you think this is acceptable?

You're really tough.

When you act tough like this,

it actually scares me a little.

I can't just let a tiger return to the mountain.

So...

you'd better not leave.

Kill him.

It doesn't take two guns to kill one man.

Come on.

Tell your men to do it.

Come on.

Come on!

Dalun,

let's go.

You didn't bring the military police this time?

It was my fault

for bringing you two together for a meal.

I'm sorry.

I just hope you're not mad.

Wait a minute.

This is the first time

I've ever drunk like this for a man.

The last time I drank like this,

I was 20 years old.

I drank like that for a girl.

She was going to study abroad,

and I rode my bike to see her off.

Where are you going?

I'm going to see a movie.

Sis,

I really didn't expect

Yi could convince you and Mom.

I'm quite surprised.

She's your mother's eldest grandchild.

Don't you know her well?

Siyun.

I don't know anything about this.

Can I really make it?

Sis,

don't be nervous.

I'll teach you step by step.

Siyun,

thank you.

Don't be formal with me.

Alright, I won't be formal then.

I'll definitely try my best to learn.

Let's go

Let's go.

Dalun, what happened to your hand?

It's nothing.

I got injured during a mission.

It's good that it's nothing serious.

I have something to tell both of you.

We've recently received intel

that the Communist Party

is planning several large-scale operations in Shanghai.

I want both of you to investigate it.

You must find out

exactly what they're plotting.

Director,

I've received intel on this too.

The moment I got the message,

I sent people to investigate.

I believe we'll have results soon.

Jin.

This is a list

of Communists I've recently captured,

including some pro-Communist people.

Recruit those we can,

and for the rest,

arrest them all.

Those who resist publicly,

kill them all.

But...

do not reveal your identity.

Yiqun,

Dalun's been working at the periphery for us.

You two must stay united

and work diligently together.

The organization is fair with rewards and punishments.

Director, rest assured,

we'll work hard

and stay united.

Good. Cheers.

[Light Theater]

About that batch of medicine you mentioned last time,

I've thought of a solution.

Sichuan is currently

suffering from famine and plague.

We can hold a charity fundraiser

for the disaster victims under the hospital's name.

First, we can actually help the victims.

Second, it gives you a cover

to collect the medicine and equipment you need.

You can blend in legitimately

without arousing suspicion.

I thought of that too.

With such a large demand,

a charity fundraiser is the only option.

And with this excuse,

we can also contact the local Red Cross hospital.

They must have

a large quantity of this type of medicine.

We're on the same page.

That solves the supply problem.

But with the current drug controls,

have you figured out how to

move them from Shanghai to your destination?

Not yet.

Let's watch the movie first.

Someone's following us.

Don't look.

It could be one of Zeng Dalun's men.

Cheng Ao,

your hands are sweating.

There's no Zeng Dalun's people here at all, right?

Maybe I was mistaken.

It's nice holding hands while watching a movie like this.
