You're beautiful and kind.

I'm honored to be your friend.

Why break up then?

Lovers can be apart...

...and still be lovers.

Tell me.

Is there another woman?

You and I, it won't work.

Who's the woman?

I never loved you.

Okay, fine...

Okay... I'll go swimming.

Let's go!

Yan... let's go.

-Ready?

-Okay.

She ignored us.

She doesn't speak Mandarin.

Change songs.

-Good morning, Daisy.

-Morning.

Summer, your NASDAQ shares sank.

Did you lose much?

Big time.

I'm broke.

Sorry.

I suggested you buy them.

It's my fault.

How can you say that?

We're best friends.

Miss Koo, Boss wants you.

Don't worry, I still got a job.

Come in, sit.

We lost PP Trust to your

boyfriend.

George is a genius!

PP Trust? Really?

Stop acting.

I'm sure you knew.

PP was our biggest account.

You and George must have

worked hard.

When will you join him?

I swear.

I had nothing to do with it.

I don't know what happened.

The fact is.

-I don't trust you.

-But you must.

We just broke up.

Congratulations.

You lost your man and your job.

I feel so great.

Thank God!

Give me 10 minutes to explain.

Summer Koo, you have

No similar jobs in Hong Kong

for 6 months.

It's in your contract.

Daisy will replace you.

Okay, fine...

That scum, George.

I should have killed him.

And painfully too!

What are your plans?

Revenge!

Summer, are you OK?

Fine, just venting.

Leos are tough people.

My horoscope says I'll be fine.

And my luck.

Will shape up.

I hope you mean it.

I'm worried about you.

I'm fine... bye.

Daisy, my cousin bought

this beach.

Last year he needed cash.

And sold me half for HKS

I helped him out of kindness.

Now, it's reward time.

A developer wants it!

There's always hope.

Are you happy for me?

Sure.

No one answers, please call back.

So you'll fly to Malaysia?

Of course.

Answer the phone, cousin.

It's so hot!

It's mine.

Hello?

-Yes, fine.

-Damn!

No problem...

They're getting married.

Any objections?

Any objections,

please say now.

You've asked already.

You're in a hurry?

Different dialects for

different guests.

Any objections to...

...their marriage?

I object!

Excuse me...

I object!

Finally.

Tell everyone why?

He owes me Rm 11,230.

In gambling debts.

Is that related to marriage?

Credit it as wedding gift.

Minister...

Pay it or no marriage. Now!

More More Tea.

This is so romantic.

I love you best!

Wait..

My wedding was to make

you jealous.

Tell everyone you love me.

And I'm yours.

But I...

Excuse me...

Excuse me!

Excuse me...

Who's this?

She, or the baby inside her?

Don't go?

You betrayed May.

Like a scummy dog...

Shame on you!

Don't be ridiculous!

I didn't know...

...she was pregnant.

See?

Go to hell!

The child needs his father.

And me?

He married you for money.

You deserve better!

Yoyo's gone.

Yoyo, come back!

Stop!

Help!

You're above water!

You're OK!

Hi.

You were reckless?

I could sue you.

You're so typical Hong Kong!

I don't talk to hicks!

Don't follow me?

It's not your beach!

It is too?

Cousin!

Cousin!

Thank you.

Your cousin lives here?

My cousin is the owner!

I don't have a cousin.

You're the owner?

Yes.

So my cousin was broke.

You gave him money to flee.

In return.

You got half the beach

and the hut?

Yes.

He's my best friend.

He fled months ago.

He didn't tell you?

Let's call the police?

What for?

I think you're conning me?

But I'm not stupid?

I'm calling your bluff.

I'm not a con man.

I have proof.

No kidding.

The deed's at my lawyer's.

Let's go now.

No problem.

-Let's go.

-How?

That's my ride?

It's a half-hour walk.

Or 5 minutes by bike.

What's wrong?

This can't be right?

You call this a deed?

Your cousin was in huge debts.

He asked me for help.

So, I signed these papers.

Lucky you.

This deed says.

Mr. More gave your cousin

Rm 500,000.

To settle his debts.

So he gave More half

of the beach.

And half of the hut.

You're joking, aren't you?

Lawyers don't joke.

These papers are legally valid.

You each own half.

No more arguments.

This is a bad day.

You're my partner.

You're welcome to stay.

What an ignorant hick.

Wasting my time.

Roger, was that fish 40 Ib.?

More like...

I'll buy your half for Rm 600,000?

I'll have no place to swim.

I'll buy your half.

You're that rich?

Call me when you go fishing?

Tomorrow night?

I got a boat Peter and Robert

will join.

That place is full of fish.

You can see them swimming.

Absolutely amazing...

Are you there?

I told you in e-mail.

My corporation wants to buy

your beach.

To build a large resort.

See.

Mr. Chan's idea is great.

Will I get free suites?

You sound interested.

Yes, I'll sell you half the beach.

It's a bargain.

-You said half the beach?

-Yes, you have a deal.

A damn good one!

Is it the left, or the

right half?

The front or the back?

Up to you.

You're insincere.

All right.

-How about 3 million?

-Malaysian Ringgits?

No...

US dollars.

US dollars?

US dollars.

Think it over, and call us.

It's not the only beach around...

We have other choices.

Stop, I must talk to you.

You still don't understand?

Just say you love me.

We can start over.

There's another woman!

Am I right?

Who is she?

-Tell me!

-Honey, sorry I'm late, let's go...

Okay...

Hey you...

He loves me, not you.

-Okay, let's go.

-Right.

-More!

-I really like you.

Don't overact.

You go to hell!

We won't be going there.

Sorry!

You're more humorous than my ex.

I'm a better man.

Seriously, US$300,00. Okay?

Not bad.

You'll be rich.

What's with this beach?

None of your business.

Just tell me, are you selling?

Isn't it US$3 million?

Mr. Chan talked to me, too.

I like one thing about you.

Calculating!

All right.

Since you know it all.

That's a fortune.

Let's swim.

Be serious!

I am!

Heavens, what do you want?

You're still here?

Tell me why you won't sell?

Look.

If this becomes a private resort.

They won't have a place to...

To what?

Play.

Can't you buy another beach?

Listen.

I grew up on this beach.

Learned to swim and dive here.

First date, first kiss.

First...

All right.

You have a lot of memories here?

So what?

It's not only the memories.

It's a part of me.

Someone dumped garbage

here once.

I was ill for 4 days.

Really?

Anyway, I love this beach.

Unless it can be replaced

by a deeper love.

US $1.5 million should do.

I don't need money.

I just want to be happy?

But I need money.

What?

You're happy and sensitive.

Just a bit too stubborn.

Anyway, I'll convince you.

So, you're staying?

No hot showers? I'll freeze?

It's 38 degree outside?

The house is not air-conditioned.

So you won't freeze.

You're not wearing makeup?

Scary?

You're beautiful.

Daisy!

Play that song again I'll sing.

It's so boring here!

I can only remain sane

by singing?

What?

No, not sold yet.

My cousin sold his half to a hick.

He says, unless there is a

deeper love.

Isn't that crazy?

I said crazy!

Talk louder!

It's noisy here!
