　　Han, I had no idea you loved horses, too. Why didn't you ever say anything?

　　阿憨，真没想到你也爱马。怎么都没听你提过啊

　　Well, why didn't you ever ask about any of my interests?

　　那你怎么不问问我有什么兴趣呢

　　I'll tell you why. Because all you ever talk about is "our cupcake business, our cupcake business."

　　Anyway, our cupcake business has a very important meeting tomorrow with Paul Platt, the party planner.

　　我们要见的可是曼哈顿的大红人

　　And tomorrow, Max and I are doing a tasting for him at his office.
