When the City Was Young

I'm Song Ruchu, and my first store has just opened its eighth branch in Mong Kok. The tides of fate have surged, and I've gained my own business as well as a sincere love that I can't betray. But a few years ago, I was just an unnoticed goods checker at Red Star Department Store. Uncle Lu, are you crazy? Let me go! Uncle Lu, why are you using scissors? Uncle Lu, stay calm. Manli is the general manager's daughter, if you hurt her, your whole life is ruined. My life, I've already been ruined by you. My dear, I've missed you so much. You're peeking at me, you thief, who's the thief? Who's the thief? Stealing company property is a serious crime. Divorce, give up the custody of the daughter, don't try to steal. Why should I confess? Qiangge. Help me! Ruchu, don't let go, whatever it is, we can talk about it. This fox seduced my son, how come you didn't consult me? You not only cheat on each other, but also want to involve me, and take my daughter. Then today, Stop!

Why risk your life and your daughter's future for a few worthless people? Song Ruochu. You're calculating this all wrong. Thug. Song Ruchu, you're not only dishonest, but now you even want to kill me to keep it quiet. I am Song Ruchu from Class 3, Grade 10.

Ren Huaiyuan, you're really fast. You've already given all your daily meal money to Grandpa. Come on, let's go eat something good. I'm ready, I'm ready. Brother, what should we eat? Let me go, I want to kill them. Are you crazy? You're risking everything for this trash. I started to like you slowly. I used to imagine being with you. I'll keep this for you first. If they dare to bully you again, come find me. I'm from Class 3, Grade 1. Song Ruchu. Who are you? My name is Chen Huaiyuan. I'm the vice president sent by the headquarters to take over Hongxing Department Store. Regarding the stolen silk, the key to this warehouse is only in your hands, the head of the security department. Accusing someone also has its limits. Although I have the key, can you say my wife could steal it too? I'm having an emergency appendectomy tomorrow at the hospital. How could I steal anything? You don't even have a hospital record. How can you prove what you're saying is true? I am his evidence.

"Mom, mom, please rest and stop crying." "My eye surgery is done. If you rest well, you can be discharged soon." "It's him." Who knows if you're telling the truth or not. The police arrested the smuggling gang yesterday. It's just a matter of time before the truth comes out. Zhang Qiang. I advise you to stay away from Song Ruchu and her daughter, otherwise we'll go to the police station right now. This incident caused quite a commotion. I just went to check the warehouse scene. The lock clearly has signs of being pried open. It's definitely an outsider who did it. There's no need to investigate within the company anymore. Otherwise, it will cause mutual suspicion and affect work. Yes, yes, it must be an outsider. General Manager Wang is so wise. If General Manager Wang says it's an outsider, then it must be an outsider. In the future, I'll have to ask you for more management advice. Song Ruchu, the company will take care of your divorce issue. If you have any trouble in the future, come to me directly.

We Old Zhang family finally got rid of this moneydraining thing. When Qiang and Manli get married, Manli said she would give me a big TV. Go away. She's just a lying girl, it doesn't matter if we throw her away. Later, I'll let Mai Li give me a son. It's okay, it's okay. You were that day. The uncle next to mom. Thank you. Thank you all for helping me today, Zhou Chu. The road ahead is long. Do you want to try?

I won't move, I'll take care of it. Manager Chen, where are you hurt? That day in the hospital. You weren't hurt badly, right? I was stabbed. So serious? Where's your wound? Here, this is where I pass out from blood. It's raining heavily outside, why don't you and Hua Hua stay here? No need, I can just sleep on the sofa. Don't worry, we'll leave tomorrow. I heard from the personnel department. You... You have no family anymore. Then I'll go to my friend's place, friends are still there. If you had friends, you wouldn't be left alone when you were wronged. Yes. No relatives, no friends. But this is my matter, Manager Chen. I really appreciate your help. But I don't need anything. I want to... Marry you. Marry. I mean, a fake marriage. I've tried every way to find a partner since I came back, I need a marriage to solve all these troubles. He's right, I just got divorced, no relatives, no one I can rely on. The child is only six years old, needs a home. I agree to you, but with conditions. Both parties negotiate and agree. Voluntarily establish a marital relationship, after marriage, the two sides do not engage in marital relations. If Chen Huayuan meets true love, or Song Ruchu becomes rich, they can part amicably. Cooperation is successful.

Hey, what wind brought you here? It's Director Chen, isn't it? Why did you come so early? Dressed all in red, there must be a wedding at your place. What's wrong with your mom? She keeps making these silly demands, always messing with the electricity. Where am I supposed to get her some electricity from? Song Ruochu, you've been hiding really hard today, right? Okay, I get it. How about a color TV? I don't want to talk about the TV right now, there seems to be some kind of fight happening.

Li Dazhang lives next door to you? I just moved here, I'm not sure. Oh. You go first, I'll leave later. We can't let him see us leaving together. You were just wrongfully accused, if you're late again you'll get punished. You go first, I'll come out later. Oh, Ruchu, why are you here? I, I have a friend who lives here. I've been staying at his place recently. Who's this friend? Just an old classmate. I need to go to work now. Song Richu, come with me for a moment. These two people, my god. Ah. What's going on? What are you doing? I was rushing in the morning. Luckily, there aren't many people in our company, so no one saw us. From now on, you can't come directly to see me. We are strangers at work, okay? You remember that. I remember.

You're Song Ruchu, this clothes was bought from you. It doesn't fit. Comrade, altering clothes takes time. After I measure, you can leave it here. Come back tomorrow to pick it up. I can't wait until tomorrow. I need it now. You poked me. Comrade, look carefully. I did. What does the needle look like? I handle dozens of customers every day. I make sure not to poke anyone, I file each needle flat. You said you poked me? Where's the wound then? Oh, the needle is indeed round. Miss, you're not trying to cause trouble on purpose, are you? Yes, I am causing trouble on purpose. What's wrong? Let me tell you, I'm dating Chen Huayuan. You, a divorced woman, with a stepchild, being a mistress, and having three husbands, you have no shame. Miss Lin. I think we've only met once, arranged by your father for an arranged meeting. And I've clearly rejected you already. Please don't ask for more. Everyone, listen carefully. Song Ruchu, I am his legally registered wife. We are already married. Anyone who dares to spread rumors about him in the future, I, Chen Huayuan, will never let him go. Wait. I value fairness the most. You splash a cup of water on me, I'll return a cup to you. Congratulations! Who is it? This is... I don't think I invited you guys. Do you think I want to come here? It's because my father forced me. We came to give you something. This is the wedding shoes Song Ruchu wore when she married me.
