00:00Bai Ming instructs her to come to him. She clenches her fist and contemplates the humiliation
00:05he has driven her through in public before. This makes her want to defy him.
00:10After witnessing her change in attitude as she refused to obey him, he states that it appears
00:15she chose to be his girlfriend. He thinks to himself that she became audacious enough after
00:20she became acquainted with Zijin that she defied him. Lai Nan Gong notices Bai Ming's annoyance
00:27and is surprised by the power Coco holds over him. Zijin then offers Coco to sit next to him in the
00:33bed, but Coco insists on bringing him a cup of water first. Zijin tricks Coco into feeding him
00:39as he pretends to be too weak because he had intravenous drip. Bai Ming eyes fixated on them.
00:45He suddenly stands up and leaves the room without any notice. Li Nan Gong congratulates Coco for
00:50succeeding in her mission to annoy Bai Ming and says she is really something. Coco wonders to herself
00:56if she is really something she was just risking her neck now and wishes for Bai Ming to get angry
01:01enough to never want to see her again. She then makes an excuse to call the nurse to leave.
01:07Zijin reminds her that she had desired Li Nan Gong to star in her movie and now he has finally agreed.
01:13Li Nan Gong interrupts and states that he hasn't yet confirmed and he is just considering it.
01:19Coco inquires why he suddenly changed his mind and asks if it's because of Zijin. Zijin reveals that
01:25he is his cousin. Coco now understands his change in behavior from the first time they met.
01:31She requests him to read their script first, but Li Nan Gong is more interested in their relationship
01:36and he has no problem with agreeing in an instant if she is Zijin's girlfriend. Coco refuses the claim.
01:43Li Nan Gong then inquires the reason for them being together at midnight in a hotel giving journalists
01:48the chance to photograph them together. This shocks Coco. She asks if the pics have been posted on social
01:54media. He lets her know that Zichuan dealt with it otherwise, the gossip of them would have spread
01:59in the whole dongling. Coco is aware how horrible the consequences can be if it was posted.
02:05Li Nan Gong then gets up to leave and informs him that he will comfort Ye for him, but he better pray
02:10that the girl is not important to him. Coco is surprised at his use of words as she wonders why would
02:16that devil Bai Ming need to be comforted because of her. Zijin drops Coco off and expresses his gratitude
02:22for taking care of him these days. He then invites her to his cousin's birthday. She realizes she can
02:28use Lai Nan Gong's sister's birthday as an opportunity to discuss with him about the movies.
02:33Li Nan Gong doesn't give her the time to make her decision and leaves insisting that she should come.
02:39Later, Xiang Xiang advises her to go as in her perspective. This is an excellent opportunity to
02:45persuade Li Nan Gong, resulting in her insistence to definitely attend the party.
02:49But Coco thinks it's inappropriate. She questions Coco why does she feel like that.
02:55She was invited by the second young master of the Mu family. She then also reveals their family
03:00history that Zijin's father started his career by marrying the daughter of the Nan Gong family.
03:05However, Zijin's mother died ten years ago and his father remarried Yujia Zong,
03:10who brought her son, Zichuan Mu, Zijin's stepbrother. She also reveals that Li Nan Gong Gong
03:17is the adopted son of the Nan Gong family and the information on the lady of the family has been
03:22blocked and there's no picture of her and no one knows what she likes, so they must choose the gift
03:27carefully. They then split because there are a lot of stores in the commercial streets and their
03:33buying separately will be faster. She realizes Xiang Xiang is right. This opportunity is of vital
03:38importance, but she doubts if she can handle an occasion like this. She comes across a little girl
03:44and is fascinated by her beauty. She then approaches her skiing if she needs any help.
03:51The little girl is having a lavish meal in a luxurious restaurant. Coco recalls how the little
03:56girl first insisted on having ice cream, and after that, she wanted to have a meal which cost her $4,000
04:02in total. She thinks that she could use this sum of money to buy Xiang Ming a new mobile.
04:08The little girl notices that Coco hasn't eaten a lot, and after the meal, she confronts Coco about it.
04:13Coco lies that she had lunch and she's not hungry. She then inquires about her family and warns her
04:19that it's too dangerous for her to be outside alone and offers to take her home. The girl suddenly
04:24gets furious and refuses to go home and starts running. Google's searching for her, but she thinks
04:30she will manage as she's a big girl. Coco sees a man selling pancakes and she buys it as she is starving.
04:36The little girl suddenly approaches and demands to know why she lied about having lunch.
04:40Coco finally admits that the restaurant where they went was expensive. It cost her a month's living
04:46expenses for her to have a meal, and she cannot dare to eat it together. She asks her to never mind
04:52and requests for her help to suggest a gift for a princess's birthday party. She agrees to choose
04:57the gift with her. They end up buying two dolls. The little girl states that Annan is hers now,
05:03and she can give Zinxin to that little princess, and it's out of ordinary. And what matters after all
05:08is her sincerity. Coco notices two masculine, aggressive men approaching the little girl
05:14and assumes they are a danger to her, but it turns out they are her bodyguards who inform her that
05:20it's time to go back as the master has been looking for her. The little girl exchanges goodbye with Coco
05:25and assures her that the child will love the gift. Later, Coco and Zinxin arrive together at the mansion.
05:32He assures Coco that she will love the gift as no one has given her a doll all these years.
05:37Coco requests to see his present as well, but he states it's a secret the little princess has not
05:43seen yet, so it's not good for her to take a look at it now. The guests inside are shocked to see
05:48young Master Mu accompanying a female companion as it has never happened before, and they wonder if
05:54Coco is his girlfriend. Some girls even envy Coco as they are jealous why they are not the ones standing
05:59by his side. Zinxin places Coco on a sofa and puts sweets in front of her as he requests her to give
06:06him a minute to meet his grandma and uncle. Taking attention, he gently wipes the chocolate from her
06:11face and couldn't resist asking if it is delicious. She attempts to stomp her feet on his foot but stops
06:19midway when he warns her about his shoes costing ten thousands of yuan. He then makes fun of her for
06:24falling for such an obvious lie. He then inquires if Zinxin brought here. He warns her that his name
06:30might sound tempting, but isn't he aware that she is his woman? He then whispers into her ear that she
06:35has to go back to the Empire house with him tonight. After all, he really misses her these days. But Coco
06:41is hesitant to return with him to his office because of what happened last time. Coco finds Zinxin standing
06:48there. She realizes Bae Ming did it on purpose. She's nervous and wonders if he heard what Bae Ming
06:53just said. Even though nothing is hidden from him, she can't help but feel embarrassed. Zinxin eyes
06:59sparkling with anger as he demands Bae Ming to take his hand off her girlfriend's waist. Bae Ming whispers
07:05to her in the ear that he just called her his girlfriend. He is surprised that the woman who was
07:10still in his arms two days ago became someone else's girlfriend two days later. Zinxin grasps Bae Ming's
07:17hand tightly and warns him not to go too far. Bae Ming warns him not to touch his woman if he
07:22doesn't intend to be his enemy. Zinxin inquiries from Coco if she is alright. Their interaction fuels
07:29his rage. He turns around to leave, but looks over the shoulder and reminds Coco that she has to go
07:34back to the Empire house with him, but Zinxin clarifies that she won't go with him. The people
07:40are shocked that these two young masters almost fought for this woman, and they're afraid that the
07:45news will spread all over the city tomorrow. Coco trembles in fear as she thinks about how he
07:50demanded her to go to the Empire house tonight, but she provoked him, and now how will he torture her?
07:56Zinxin assures her not to be scared as he won't let him bully her and ask her to come with him.
08:01He suggests that if she does some exercise, then she can forget all this displeasure.
08:07They run together, holding hands they stop when they reach backyard. Coco notices,
08:12and she abruptly breaks away from his hand. Coco admits that she used to hope that someone could
08:17protect her from Yebe Ming's harm, but now she's sober, and she knows no one can protect her out
08:23of this abyss. No one, including him. He embraces Coco and asks for a chance to prove that he can.
08:31Coco aggressively demands him to let her go as she thinks she must make him give her up as no one can
08:36compete with Be Ming, and she cannot get him involved, but Zinxin is adamant on making Coco
08:41his girlfriend and demands for a fair chance to compete with him. He finally confesses his love
08:48for her. He leans in, drawing his face closer for a kiss, as he expresses his wish for her to become
08:55his girlfriend, but she pushes him away. Determined, he pulls her back gently. Coco pleads with him to
09:01let her go. He regains his senses and apologizes for losing control, and emphasizes what he said
09:07was true so she should believe him and to let him help her. Coco replies she doesn't know she
09:12wonders if she can trust him. He says he will give her time and wants to go back now. Coco is lost in
09:18her thoughts. She is scared that if she trusts him and he breaks her trust, she would not be able to
09:23trust any man again. That being the case, she believes it is better to not have any hope from the
09:28beginning, when they finally gather at the mansion to cut the cake. She is surprised to learn that
09:34she is the same girl she had encountered in the market, but Snow doesn't seem surprised and welcomes
09:38her. Lie. Nan Gong is also surprised that they both know each other. Coco inquires if she is Snow
09:46Nan Gong, the little princess of the family. She tells her that she never had intention of hiding it, but
09:52she never asked her and requests for help in cutting the cake. She then introduces Coco to his
09:58grandpa as her friend and expresses her wish about Coco cutting the cake. Now that she desires it,
10:04her grandpa requests Coco. She agrees to help and she then notices Beeming looking at her. She wonders
10:09why he came here. Zijin gifts her a harmonica that she is very delighted to receive and lets Zijin know
10:15that he didn't disappoint her. Beeming inquires if it means they disappointed her. She ensures him that
10:20she really likes the gift, but she doesn't have a driver license. How is she going to drive?
10:26He suggests that the new friend she made should help her in driving. She then diverts his attention
10:33back to her only to find her chatting with Zijin. She looks at his emotionless eyes but reminds herself
10:39there is no need to be of Ye Beeming as he has no right to interfere in her private life. It's almost
10:46as if Beeming can read her mind as he is determined to show her whether he has a right to her or not.
10:51Later Coco and Snow are together in her room. Coco confronts Snow about hiding the truth from her.
11:00Now she is worried her family might mistake this coincidence as her impure motive, but she assures
11:05her that she will explain for her. She then jumps with excitement as she tells her that Big Brother
11:10Ye said she can't drive the car but Coco can and recommends going on a drive next time. She reveals that
11:17she doesn't have a driver license and then inquires why she addresses him as Big Brother Ye. She replies
11:23that he is the first born of the Beeming family, second born is Brother Shun, and this one's Brother
11:28Lianchen, and the last born is Sister Dai Dai. She teases to get off her as she is heavy. She thinks to
11:35herself that Dai Dai Beeming is the one who had accompanied Fei Fan. Snow refuses to get off her as she smells
11:41just like her mother. Lianangong recommends not disturbing them as it is rare for Snow to be happy.
11:47They overhear Snow requesting Coco to marry her brother Lianangong so she will not have to leave
11:53her in the future. A nervous Lianangong explains that it is just a child's babble and it has nothing
11:59to with her. But Beeming reminds her that he is famous for spoiling her sister. Lianangong raises his
12:05hands in defeat, accepting that he is no match for her. He also thinks to himself whether the encounter
12:10between Coco and Snow was a coincidence or her intention.
12:16Beeming enters the room. He finds her laying on the bed and questions if it's her hobby dressing
12:22like this in front of the men. He reaches for her but suddenly the memory of him tearing her dress
12:27reaches her mind and haunts her, before she could realize she slaps him across the face. When she gets
12:32her senses back she realizes Beeming just wanted to zip up her dress. No emotions apparent on his face as
12:39he questions if she slapped him. She starts panicking. Snow intervenes and tries to explain
12:44on Coco's behalf but he assures her that he is just joking with her and she is just helping him
12:49kill the mosquitoes. But Coco knows from his tone and awful smile that he is not joking.
12:55Lianangong lifts Snow on her shoulder and makes an excuse that Grandpa is looking for him. Snow protests
13:01to not bully her friend and accuses her brother of deliberately taking her away who denies the
13:05allegations. She then expresses her desire for Coco to become her sister-in-law but Lianangong reminds
13:12her that he is never going to marry or have a baby all his life. She advises him to grow up and that
13:17people have to marry and start their family. He reminds her he is just 11 years older than her
13:22and isn't it better that he just protects her for the rest of his life? She warns him she will solely
13:27hold him responsible if Coco is bullied. Meanwhile, Beeming orders Coco to get up and go to the Empire
13:33house with him. She refuses, thinking she can't give him a chance to humiliate her anymore.
13:40Beeming takes it as a challenge and reminds her of the consequences. She asks him to not threaten
13:44her and she will return all the money she owes. She is adamant on not getting bullied by him anymore
13:51and tells him that his business with other women has nothing to do with her so he should not use her
13:56to deal with his relationships. He thinks she is simply jealous. She thinks to herself that as long
14:01as she is sane she wants to stay away from her. He lifts her up in his arms and inquires if she is
14:06not. She pleads with him not to touch her and she will pay him back. He inquires how she is going to
14:12pay 2 billion or if she is considering asking Zijin. He touches her lips. He has heard that she and Zijin
14:18were alone in the backyard for so long it slightly annoys him. She bites his finger but he doesn't seem
14:24bothered and smiles. She gives up seeing how thick skinned he is. He asks her why she stopped
14:30biting as she wants revenge on him but she is not daring enough. He then tells her. It's Zijin inquiring
14:36if Coco is there before Coco could answer. Beeming covers her mouth. He says it's really late and he
14:43needs to drop her back to school. He reaches for the door handle but stops, bringing to mind that he
14:49can't break into Snow's bedroom and he just wants to confirm whether Coco was taken away by Ye.
14:55She finally sends him away by saying that he may go back first. She wants to chat with Snow for a
15:00while. He agrees but on one condition that he is going to wait for her downstairs and when she puts
15:05Snow to sleep he is going to drop her off. He then thinks that Snow has been in a bad mood recently so
15:10he should not disturb them. Beeming teases her that now he is gone so she does not need to lower her
15:16voice. She pleads with him to let her go. Her pleas don't work on him as he simply interrogates
15:21if she went to the backyard with Zijin tonight. If they have done something and wonders what they did
15:26he inquires if they hugged and kissed or something more. She tries to explain that he was afraid if she
15:33was unwell and just took her for a run. He thinks that she is trying to make a fool out of him as she
15:39cannot run with such a weak physique. She finally admits that they talked and hugged. He inquires if
15:46she plans to leave with him and if he did those things to her while hugging. She tells him that
15:51is so angry tonight and is it because of Zijin? Because he is jealous. He replies that actually
15:56sees him through. She explains that he just hugged her and nothing else and this is not within the scope
16:02of their agreement so he should not embarrass her. He leans in closer and asks when did he embarrass her?
16:09She inquires if he will set her free if she returns the money to him. He answers back they will be even
16:15after she returns the money but she should accompany him to the empire house now. He proudly boasts in
16:20his mind that he is the one with finally say and who can refuse him. He then instructs the driver to
16:26come to the book door. Coco, determined that there is no way for her to go back there with him, tries to
16:32escape but is catched by Zijin who calls her a disobedient girl and blames it on his being
16:38lenient on her in the past. He tears her dress apart. Snow informs Zijin that Coco is not with her
16:45but with Beeming. Beeming asks if she wants to go out now. Coco rushes to him and says no as she is
16:52scared of being seen by Snow like that. She agrees to go back to the empire house with him. He asks her
16:58if it is voluntary. She replies with a yes. She then requests for his help and not let Snow see her like
17:04that. He picks her up and she inquires what he is going to do to her shock he is planning on jumping
17:09from a window. While Zijin knocks on the door asking her if she is there. Coco thinks that if
17:15they jump they might die but at least it will save her from this foreseeable embarrassment.
17:21Beeming instructs her to hold him tight and jumps out of the window.
