Co-worker: Ah, sorry. Water doesn’t have eyes, so it went on you. What a waste.
RJX: sorry, my water doesn’t have eyes either.
Co-worker: you, you…
Other co-worker: don’t fight, if the managers find out then
you will be fired.
Co-worker: Yao Jie let you go, but watch out.
Mom: does it look nice?
Young ZZ: yes, I never saw a bracelet as nice as this one.
Mom: Keep this protected, once your fated person comes then
give it to her.
Young ZZ: What does fated person mean?
Mom: Once you meet her, you will know. When your sad and
having a hard time, the first person comes to your mind will be that fated
person. You will do everything in your power to protect her.
Mom: ZZ, mom will get old one day. You have to remember, once you meet that girl you have to be nice to her just like your dad. Be a good man and live on with your life. Your father could not achieve the business; I wish you could achieve it, okay?
JL: Tong Hai, why are you in a rush?
RJX: you’re looking for me?
JL is trying to get on RJX's good side. She says YMZ will get past all the bad stuff and reunite with RJX.
JL sees the bracelet and ask RJX to borrow it for 2 days. In return she gives her bracelet to RJX.
It was YMZ's order for JL to get close to RJX.
JL complains about ZZ giving the important bracelet to RJX.
YMZ orders JL to give a gift to ZZ and wear this bracelet.
ZZ at first doesn't pay any attention to her. JL tries to get him to see the bracelet by grabbing onto his arms.
ZZ finally sees the bracelet and takes it off of her by force.
In the old days, a lot of people wear gloves. I can't stand it because you can't do anything wearing them.
I don't even know how ZZ snaps his fingers with gloves on.
ZZ goes to RJX's dormitory and ask why she gave it to JL. RJX said "you gave it to me so I can do whatever I want with it."
She wish mom and dad were here, then she wouldn't be bullied.
RJX ask ZZ for the bracelet back. She said, "You gave it to me, so I can do whatever I want with it, right?"
ZZ answered yes.
RJX says she can only exchange feelings and won't be taken in by money.
Noooo! RJX, that was ZZ's mother's momentum.
Feel so sorry for him. But like a guy should personally give the gift, don't get your subordinates to do it.
RJX comes back to find her bed soaked. She has had enough. At work she is bullied by co-workers and outside she is bullied by ZZ.
RJX decides to move out. She ask the man how much is it per month. The man replied, $5.
RJX can only afford to pay $1 a month.
This guy is looking at RJX in a very inappropriate way.
RJX tells her she can pay $1. He accepts saying he is a good guy.
Psh! good guy my ass, a perverted ass to be exact.
RJX moves in and was about to get changed but found the perverted guy peaking.
She kicks him in the private area and hits him a few times before running away.
She thinks of her sister not uniting with her and Anna leaving.
She thinks Shanghai doesn't have a place for her.
RJX runs into the guy that showed her the job.
Xiao He as Zhou Mu (ZM)
RJX ask him if he has any friends that have a place she can stay at.
ZM brings her to this huge house.
ZZ looks at RJX's house from the outside with ZM.
ZM said, "So your going to the guy that does stuff from the shadow?
ZZ already bought the house and it's under her name.
ZZ tells him not to tell RJX about any of this.
MR tells YMZ to get XHC to invest in his company. Or something along the lines of supporting the japanese company financially.
YMZ said she can't do it because she is just someone under his care. MR tells her if she gains the title of a wife then she will have more power.
YMZ rejects him and MR said no one will disappoint me.
Chen manager explains the idea of using a male and female model. Mei Hwa has only used female models. She said to find prominent people in shanghai to be the model.
Chen manager stole this idea from RJX.
The CEO likes this idea. She ask who will be the model. Chen manager names XHC, ZZ but the CEO doesn't think they will fit as a model. XYD is the perfect person to be a model.
CEO also said YMZ will do for the female model.
Chen manager said, "RJX is close with them, she can ask them to join."
YMZ said, "Didn't I tell you to never appear before me."
RJX explains the proposal of YMZ being a model for Mei Hwa.
YMZ rejects her.
RJX comes to ask XYD to be a model. She gives the puppy dog face and he agrees to do it.
Well this dude looks crazy. I'm guess he is the one that sent that read letter to YMZ.
He has pictures of YMZ posted all over the way.
RJX was about to tell the CEO the bad news but the CEO said good job. Both of them has agreed to do the model.
MR introduce himself as YMZ's friend. He tells him that when both of you die then you will be together forever.
XYD doesn't want to put the make up on. But RJX convince him that the lighting of the camera won't show his face if he doesn't have make up on.
The CEO bumps into XHC. She thanks him for letting YMZ be a model for her company product.
XHC hears that XYD is a model as well.
It seems like XHC doesn't like XYD and YMZ together.
Well these two look awkward. The camera man keeps on telling XYD to get closer to YMZ. The camera man can't read the atmosphere at all.
XYD says, "I am tired, I need to take a break."
YMZ wanted to tell XYD about the red letter she is receiving but XYD said it's better to tell his brother.
MR is here too. He is over seeing his own advertisement.
He tells her not to forgot her identity.
She tells her not to meet like this because it will expose us.
MR's assistant ask if we are going to tell her the plan. MR said, "No, need. She is only a chess piece for our nation."
Young ZZ: Mom, don’t cry. I promise you.
ZZ: Give this to RJX.
TH: Second master.
JL: Tong Hai, why are you in a rush?
TH: Miss JL, it’s you again. Right now, I am delivering a
love present on behalf of ZZ. ZZ’s mother said to give this to the future
sister-in-law. That’s why I am in a rush.
ZZ ordered me to give it to RJX. I think you should give up and stop
wasting your time around ZZ’s mansion. Well, I am leaving.
JL (thought): RJX, it’s you again.
RJX: you’re looking for me?
TH: sister-in-law…miss jing xiu.
TH: I am here on behalf of ZZ to give you this gift.
RJX: Thank you, but I cannot accept this.
TH: please don’t make this hard for me. You know ZZ’s
temper; if I bring the gift back then my life will be in danger. Please save
me. This bracelet is very expensive. Take good care of it!
RJX: ah, I don’t want it.
JL sees the bracelet and ask RJX to borrow it for 2 days. In return she gives her bracelet to RJX.
It was YMZ's order for JL to get close to RJX.

Thank you so much for reading, comment if you want me to change up how I write (like if you perfer recaps in detail). I might take up your suggestions and change up my style for an episode.
Thank you! Speedy post from u as usual. I've been following your recaps for few days actually but nvr got the chance to comment. The part where rjx smashed zz's bracelet to pieces was really heartbreaking. Rjx u meanie!
ReplyDeletei love ur recaps of cruel romance.....i don understand chinese but i'm absolutely crazy about this show. ur recaps help me in understanding it, ur really fast in recaps tho' a bit short but i love it,,,,,,plz recap zz & rjx scenes in detail, i jus love this otp. keep up the great work. thankz.
ReplyDeletethank you so much for the recaps!! you are the ONLY person who i depend on for translation at the moment. hahah. i love how fast your recaps are! good job!
ReplyDeletewoohoo! thank you so much for the fast recap. i've been eagerly awaiting this. in a previous post i had mentioned detailed recaps from other sites/blogs, but i honestly like how you're recapping this drama. no changes needed. you're doing an awesome job by the way.
ReplyDeleteI also love reading your recap. if it is not so much can you please provide more details? -please. Right now if RJX doesn't want ZZ, i will take him lol
ReplyDeleteRecently watched this drama. I'm amazed at the chemistry between Huang Xiao Ming & Chen Qiao En (at 1 point i even thought HXM looked more compatible with CQE than Angelababy). Unfortunately this drama took a downhill after episode 30, after Zuo Zen regained his power. I cannot believe that the scriptwriter can come out with something so lame that Jin Xiu actually believes what the Japanese guy & that gambler Uncle told her. Couldn't she have used some sense, after all that Zuo Zen had done for her since the day they met on the ship, the man she lived with (from episode 24), could'nt she tell what sort of person Zuo Zen is to her. Unfortunately the scriptwriter didn't portray Jin Xiu's character well in this drama. In some episodes, she actually annoyed me. Esp the bracelet incident, does she have to smash it on the ground or even giving it away to Jing Ling. Something not yours, return it to the owner if you don't want it. Needless to say, the editing of the drama is bad. Cuts here & there & the last episode was so disappointing. What happened to the long anticipated wedding? It was so anti climax to have ZZ & JX standing there, ZZ hugging her from behind when earlier on the episode was all on flashback. I guess the only reason I'm watching is because of the great cast. However, the makeup artiste needs to do a better job than having Jin Xiu dressed up like Zuo Zen's mother after their bed scene together. And notice that Jin Xiu is wearing high heels at home. Couldnt she be given something more comfortable, she's at home! And that Ying Dong, after all that Zuo Zen did for him, had the audacity to point a gun at Zuo Zen! Really hope to be able to find an uncut version of the drama.
ReplyDeleteAt least the lead actress role was not given to the real girlfriend of ZZ.
