I want to become someone like him.
Let's see what you're made of.
Who are you?
You are Sang Bo.
We're not on the same side.
I will figure you out.
I'll let you in on a secret.
He doesn't know the meaning of losing.
Where have you been for eight years?
I don't wrongly accuse good men.
Good and evil are two sides of the same coin.
Shoot me so you can gain their trust.
Do you know what I've done?
I trust you more than anyone else does.
I love who you are now.
I don't care about your past.
[Age of Legends]
[Episode 35]
Did you come to see me about something?
Brother Zhou, I want to ask you for a favor. Can we speak outside?
Am I hearing things?
You're asking me for help?
Yes.
Tell me what it is.
Why don't we talk outside?
Let's just talk here.
These are all my men. There are no outsiders here. Go on.
What's going on?
As you must have heard, my wife is sick.
I sold my restaurant so I could pay for her surgery.
She's had the surgery--
- Borrowing money? I don't have any! - No, no.
Brother Zhou, don't misunderstand. I'm not here to borrow money.
I just want to ask you to help me find a job.

I can do anything in the kitchen.
I need to save up money for medical costs.
I understand. Looking for a job?
Look, I have enough hands on deck already.
Jianguo, you were once my boss.
Comrade.
Why don't you go home and wait to hear from me?
I'll think it over.
What do you say? Go home first.
Brother Zhou, ask you know, I never beg anyone for anything.
I really can't manage on my own this time.
That's why... I came to ask for your help.
Please.
Jianguo, you've said enough. I'll try to think of something for you.
Go home and wait to hear from me. Okay?
No, don't.
Take care.
Everybody get to work!
Ms. Mei? Okay, I'm on my way.
Come in.
- Chef Zhou. - Hello, Ms. Mei.
Come, sit.
- You wanted to see me? - Yes.
I'm looking over our menu.
To be honest, our food is quite nice
but even I feel tired of it and think it lacks innovation.
We'll be having some very important guests in a few days.
I'm afraid they won't like this food.
Indeed, our kitchen hasn't updated our menu in a long while.
If even you feel tired of the food
I'm guessing our customers must also be sick of the offerings.
Yes. Do you have any nice ideas?
I think we should work with the seasons
and update the menu in a timely manner.
That's how we can satisfy our customers.
I like that idea. Keep going.
Take, for example, our garden.
We could set up an outdoor grilling station.
That would be fun and suitable for people of all ages.
That's an excellent idea.
Our garden is so big and it's not being used anyway.
Many five-star hotels have an outdoor grilling station.
Yes.
Ms. Mei, a friend of mine happened to visit.
He was running a BBQ restaurant for many years.
He's very experienced. I'd like to recommend him for this job.
Wonderful.
What a coincidence.
If it's possible, why don't you refer him to us?
If possible, I'd like to try his cooking.
- Sure, no problem. - Okay.
I'll get going now.
Shuai? Shuai?
Say...
Are Guang Zi and Officer Hu considered in the throes of love?
Yes.
In love.
When they get back from training
do you think we'll have a nice chubby nephew?
Who knows?
- Guang Zi and Officer Hu-- - Are you done yet?
Even food can't shut you up?
Give me some peace.
Shuai.
Let me ask one more question.
So...
Do you know who the woman I like is?
Do you remember Wen Xiaoxue?
Wen Xiaoxue? What about her?
It's Wen Xiaoxue.
I've liked her since I was a kid.
She's like my dream lover.
I saw her again two days ago.
When I saw her...
I felt as if I was struck by lightning.
In that moment...
I felt as if I was falling in love.
Teach me how to pursue her.
Women nowadays like men to take the initiative.
It's just like this game.
Attack all the candies
and clear them all out to win her heart.
You have to take the initiative.
Give her flowers and drinks.
Escort her to and from work. Show her some concern.
Xue, I'm coming.
Jianguo.
How are you guys doing?
Please be well.
Ms. Mei, look. It's just the soft opening and we already have so many customers.
Very good.
Ms. Mei, let me make the introduction.
This is my friend, Li Jianguo.
Jianguo, this is my boss, Ms. Mei.
- Hello, Ms. Mei. - Hello.
I'll cut off a piece for you to try.
Ms. Mei, this is the best part of the lamb.
Okay.
Crispy but not burnt and it melts in the mouth.
You are excellent at grilling.
Thank you for the praise.
Jianguo has been grilling for years.
You can rest assured about his skills.
All our customers will leave satisfied.
Good.
Chef Zhou, I need to speak with you.
You can all try some too. Let's go.
- Why are you here too? - Meet in the kitchen tonight.
This way.
It's safe here.
Leave, Jianguo. It's too dangerous here.
Guang Zi, since we're brothers
how can I leave you to fend for yourself when you're in danger?
Have you forgotten?
I was trained in stealth reconnaissance and investigation in the army.
I might be able to help.
Thank you, Jianguo.
But you must promise me that you'll be careful.
Don't worry. I will use my own discretion.
You should go. I need to prepare ingredients for tomorrow.
Ms. Mei said she'll be inviting the penthouse guest to try my cooking.
I don't know if I'll pass.
What did you say?
Penthouse guest?
You know the guest?
Do you know who this penthouse guest is?
Golden Glory's drug kingpin, Lisa.
Listen to me.
A while ago, Hu Rong left Jiangbei to come to Golden Glory
for the purpose of investigating Golden Glory's involvement in narcotics.
She wanted to get close to Lisa but was rebuffed a few days ago.
She's unable to obtain any more intel.
I've been wondering how to get close to Lisa.
If it's as you say, this will be great.
When she comes out to eat tomorrow
I'll set up a situation so that I can get close to her.
What do you plan on doing?
[Men's Restroom]
Liu Ziguang, what are you doing?
Why is Li Jianguo also in Golden Glory?
Jianguo came to help me and Hu Rong.
Are you kidding?
The police are carrying out a mission at Golden Glory.
One more person in the fray means an extra degree of risk.
Don't you understand that?
Captain Han, I understand your worries.
I'm worried about Guang Zi precisely because of the danger he's in.
I found my own way in.
This was entirely my decision alone and nobody else's fault.
All right, that's enough.
You are to come back to Jiangbei with me immediately.
You can't go back.
Captain Han, I'm really sorry. I'm afraid I can't do that.
I've already met Ms. Mei
and she is extremely pleased with my cooking.
She even arranged for me to make a whole roast lamb for Lisa tomorrow.
If I disappear tonight
they will surely have suspicions.
If they investigate my background, Guang Zi will be next to be implicated.
It may be safer for me to stay and continue working there.
In addition, I am a veteran.
As a soldier, I can solemnly swear that
I won't act arbitrarily at Golden Glory
and will do my best to coordinate with the police.
Jianguo is telling the truth.
His arrival is a big help for us.
You probably don't understand the situation in Golden Glory right now.
Lisa is wary of Hu Rong.
It'll be difficult for Hu Rong to get close to Lisa again.
I've also tried many different ways. It's very difficult.
It's very hard to approach her.
We'll have an extremely rare opportunity to do just that tomorrow.
Moreover, I don't think Hu Rong has been doing very well lately.
She's under too much pressure. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it.
If we don't seize our chance tomorrow
I don't know how long we'll have to wait.
What's your plan?
No, no! That's too risky!
What if you fail?
You're right.
This is a risky move. Whether it'll work will depend on everyone's teamwork.
Han Jin, there's no alternative.
Consider it.
This is important. I'll ask my superior for advice.
Give me a moment.
I just asked my superior.
He agrees to allow Li Jianguo stay in Golden Glory.
But, we'll be sending our colleague, Xiao Bai, to work with you.
As our spy, you must coordinate with her and obey her orders.
No problem.
Liu Ziguang, my superior also agreed
to go along with your plan tomorrow.
I'll go back and make arrangements.
We'll act according to circumstance tomorrow.
Be careful.
Thank you.
Li Li, hand me the spices.
Are you new? How come I haven't seen you before?
Ms. Mei, she's my niece.
She failed to get into college this year
so her parents wanted her to learn some skills from me.
Since it's been so busy lately
I had her come be my assistant.
I already cleared this with Chef Zhou.
All right.
Thank you, Ms. Mei.
Greet Ms. Mei.
Hello, Ms. Mei.
All right, get back to work.
Tina, it's raining so hard.
Why don't you rest in your room?
When the food is ready, I'll have them send it to your room.
It's a rare moment when I'm free
to sit out in the rain and watch a lamb being roasted.
This is fun.
This was an excellent idea.
When our VIP guests come in a few days
this roast lamb will be a very suitable meal.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
You always have such unique tastes.
Hello?
Okay, I'm on my way.
Accounting needs me to sign some things. I'll be back soon.
What a pretty lady.
Nice figure. Come play with me.
Go away! Don't be asking for trouble.
What's your name?
Liu Xiaoguang.
A lame name but very nice fighting skills.
Come with me.
Why are you so nervous?
Lean back.
What are you doing?
What do you think?
You're soaking wet. You need a shower.
I'll shower with you.
I can go back to my room for that. Thank you.
It's better here. I have a lot of space.
I have a girlfriend.
I don't mind in the least that you have a girlfriend.
You are Ms. Mei's honored guest. I mustn't be rude to you.
I'm sorry.
You did very well today.
Go on.
Tina?
Are you all right? Were you hurt?
I'm fine.
It's thanks to that security guard.
Yes, I didn't think he was so strong.
He also reacts quickly.
You must investigate this thoroughly. The deal is in a few days.
How can I be reassured with this level of security at Golden Glory?
Yes, you're right.
This was an accident.
Don't worry. I've already issued orders to increase security immediately.
This is a significant deal.
If any more trouble happens, I won't stay so nice.
I know. Sorry.
What's this security guard's name?
- Liu Xiaoguang. - Liu Xiaoguang.
Yes, Liu Xiaoguang.
Is he trustworthy? Have you looked into him?
He's only been a security guard.
We've looked into him. He has a simple and clear background.
He can be trusted.
Transfer him to be my 24-hour bodyguard starting now.
All right, I'll arrange it.
- Xiaoxue. - Zhuo Li? Why are you here?
I came to see you.
Nobody answered when I knocked on the door
so I waited down here for a bit.
These are for you.
Zhuo Li, what's all this for?
I haven't seen you in so long. I couldn't show up empty-handed.
I just bought a little something.
You can eat more of these.
Nuts are good for the brain.
No, I don't mean that you don't have brains.
Sorry, I'm not good with words.
That's all right.
Thank you, but don't be so courteous next time.
Okay.
Xiaoxue.
How come you're so late coming home today?
I found a part-time job
and I get off a bit late.
Okay, from now on...
Be careful the next time you go home so late.
If you're scared, give me a call.
I'll escort you home.
Don't tire yourself out. Watch your health.
Zhuo Li, how have you been lately?
I'm pretty good. I was just in--
I mean, I just finished up some work.
I've been managing a restaurant with Xiaoshuai.
Business has been good lately.
- Really? - Yes.
We have an endless stream of customers.
When I have free time, I'll come by to visit.
Okay. I'll make grilled kidney skewers for you.
Okay.
It's pretty late. I should go.
Go on. It's cold out here. Go inside.
- Be careful. Bye. - Bye.
Okay.
Come in.
Ms. Mei, you wanted to see me?
Liu Xiaoguang, in view of your outstanding performance today
I've decided to give you a 10 percent raise as a reward.
Thank you.
Starting now
you will be a 24-hour bodyguard for the penthouse guest.
You'll move to the penthouse tomorrow.
What is it? Unhappy and unwilling?
No, it's just so sudden. Thank you, Ms. Mei.
All right. Report to me if anything happens.
And then?
- And that's all. - Really?
Okay. I'll arrest her right now.
Don't be rash. Let me explain.
Nothing happened between us.
Besides, you can't spoil the trap that you painstakingly set up.
If you're still angry--
What was that for?
This kiss was a reward.
You did very well.
Even though I'm not mad at you
I still really hate Lisa for seducing you.
I'm also mad at her.
- Did you bring an egg? - Yes.
- Did you draw on it? - No.
Take it out.
Pen.
Draw an ugly Lisa on it.
Crack it and eat it.
You want to eat it?
Didn't you just tell me to?
I'm eating it. Not you.
Bite her to death.
Hello? Hello?
Ms. Mei?
Okay, I'm on my way.
Tina, have some tea.
This weekend, Xiao Fei and I will pick up the payment.
Everything else is being arranged as we planned.
Once all the guests have arrived next Monday, the deal can begin.
Issue orders right away.
Next Monday, Golden Glory will be closed for stocktaking.
Aside from guests coming for the deal
we won't be accepting any other customers.
Guests currently checked-in must be further screened.
Let's avoid another incident like yesterday's.
Understood. I'll arrange it right away.
Come in.
Good, you're here.
Your 24-hour bodyguard.
Moving in?
That's good.
From now on, you'll live right next to me and be my personal bodyguard.
You'll come when I call you.
Do not worry, ma'am. I will do my best as Ms. Mei ordered.
Don't speak so formally.
I'm not much older than you.
Call me Ms. Tina.
Yes, Ms. Tina.
Be alert.
Even when you're sleeping, keep an eye open.
Tina, I'll take out your garbage for you.
If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now.
Did I scare you yesterday?
Your girlfriend isn't angry that you're my personal bodyguard, is she?
No.
No?
Look at how nervous you look.
I'm just teasing you.
Do a good job as my bodyguard.
I will reward you.
Yes, Ms. Tina.
Go check out your room.
Okay.
- Jianguo. - Chef Zhou.
This is looking good.
- Is something the matter? - Just a heads-up.
I just received notice from Ms. Mei.
Next Monday, Golden Glory will be closed for stocktaking.
I came to tell you not to order fresh lamb meat next Monday
so it won't go to waste.
Isn't next Monday the middle of the month?
Stocktaking mid-month?
We employees aren't in any position to question our bosses.
Let's just do our jobs.
Okay, got it.
- All right, that's all. - Okay.
Get back to work. I have to go now.
Okay.
- I'll have grilled lamb meat. - Okay, coming right up.
Flip it over.
By the way, we have fresh vegetables over here. Would you like some?
Okay.
I just heard Ms. Mei ordered
Golden Glory is closed next Monday for stocktaking.
That's mid-month. This sounds fishy.
All right.
- And two of these. - Okay.
Come in.
Ms. Tina, your grilled lamb meat.
Place it over there.
My shoulder is so sore.
Xiaoguang, come here.
Are you afraid I'll eat you? Come here.
Sit down.
Over here.
You're quite strong.
I'm guessing most people can't stand it.
- I'll be gentler. - No need.
This strength...
I like it.
My ex-boyfriend used to give me massages with the same level of strength.
Speaking of which...
You and my ex are quite similar.
He's also muscular and good at fighting.
I don't know why.
I'm reminded of him when I see you.
Keep massaging.
I like this strength.
Look at you.
Your bashful appearance isn't like him at all.
Why are you looking at me?
If there's nothing else, I'll go now, Ms. Tina.
Wait.
Look, even your tie is crooked.
All right. Place the lamb meat on the dining table.
I'm going to take a shower.
Wait for me.
Your meal is ready, Ms. Tina.
Come.
Eat with me.
I love red wine.
Don't stand here. Go eat.
Okay.
I'll be waiting inside. Call me if you need anything.
