[Love Like White Jade]

[Episode 16]

I feel so bad for lying to Madam Jiang.

I'm sorry, Madam Jiang. I had no choice.

Junior Young Master.

I knew you would come.

Wu Xia is feeling sad in her room.

Let's talk.

Younger Brother, I know what you want to say.

Your engagement with Lady Shi was canceled only two days after the official engagement.

What exactly happened within these two days?

Also, when did Lady Shui and you fall in love?

If you're truly in love, how could you give up due to something like "destiny"?

I knew since the first time I met her that destiny brought us together.

Unfortunately, destiny also prevented us from getting married.

But we still have countless days ahead.

I believe someday,

Jiang Mansion will hang up lanterns and red satin for us again.

She's not a girl from the Lantern Boudoir!

She truly deserves to be cherished!

I will cherish her.

I have her and only her in my heart.

She deserves someone better.

I will become a better person.

My love for her does not fear treacherous paths ahead

nor opinions of the secular world.

I'm cunning but kind and well-intentioned.

I love her. I'm willing to stay by her side

and allow her to soar like an eagle.

I hope you'll remember what you said today.

You have no idea. Jiang Bai Yu was pretending to be insane and acting like an idiot these days.

That was very hard on him.

It took us much effort to cancel the engagement.

But at least it's all in the past now.

But... but I just

feel really bad for Madam Jiang.

She will be all right.

I'm sure her grandson will find someone he loves.

We've done a good deed.

That makes sense.

You must be hungry after handling wedding affairs all day.

Come on.

Take a seat.

This is the best food in Chong'an City.

Why did you bring the dessert from Jiang Mansion?

This is the most famous dessert of this restaurant.

Try it.

"This restaurant"?

It smells really good.

It's really sweet.

It's not bad, right?

Chong'an is very beautiful from this angle.

At first, I thought Chong'an was nothing special.

But ever since I met you,

Chong'an surely feels different now.

What do you think we should do next?

Well, about that,

lovers would usually take a stroll

after dinner, find somewhere to talk,

- or... - Those are not interesting enough.

I want to do something more fun with you.

Like what?

I want to give you a present.

What present?

I want to give you a starry sky.

I... I can see it.

These stars belong to only you.

Are you still sleeping? Time to wake up.

Why are you coughing suddenly?

So hot!

What happened?

Weren't you fine last night?

Maybe I have a cold from being exposed to heat so long

and got caught in the wind last night.

"Last night"?

Weren't you studying last night?

How did you get caught in the wind?

Last night, I...

I'm thirsty. I want some water.

- I'll pour some. - Lady Shui,

preserved fruit from Western Region arrived today.

Madam Jiang said to bring some for you.

Thank Madam Jiang for me. Thank you, Nanny.

Young Master, what happened to you?

I'm fine. I'm fine.

Let me get you some water.

- Yu'er. Yu'er, how are you feeling? - Madam Jiang.

- Grandma, Uncle. - Greetings, Master Jiang.

I heard you were sick again.

You almost scared me to death.

Grandma, I'm all right.

I just went out to play last night and caught a cold.

Here, let me feel your pulse.

Be a good boy.

Let your uncle treat your condition.

You finally recovered from your near-death experience.

We must completely cure you this time.

His pulse feels sunken.

Yu'er, you have a deficiency in blood and Qi.

Hu'er, should we give him a full body exam?

I have an injury. What should I do?

No, there's no need for a full body exam.

I'm just a bit tired.

I just need to take more supplements.

Yu'er, your pulse feels unstable.

You shouldn't overlook it.

Mother, I'll go fill a supplement prescription for Yu'er now.

Thank you, Uncle.

Take care, Master Jiang.

Yu'er has been quite healthy.

Wu Xia, you are living under the same roof with him.

Do you know why this happened?

I don't know what happened to Young Master.

However, I do find it odd.

Young Master has been experiencing some strange symptoms.

Tell me about them.

Sometimes, Young Master would sweat for no reason

yet other times he would fear the cold.

That would surely happen when I couldn't take the miracle herb in time.

Sometimes, he has anxiety, chest distress, and shortness of breath.

One time, he even put his face into a washbasin to cool off.

As we know, the weather is very cold at night during early spring.

That's because Ba Xi drugged me with Golden Wind and Dew of Jade Pill.

Is that true?

A few days ago,

I felt very uneasy about strange happenings when your inter-restriction manifested.

I was thinking,

maybe you two could return to normal after we canceled the engagement.

Maybe all would be fine.

I didn't expect the inter-restriction to be so powerful.

Grandma, here's the thing.

The reason of my unstable pulse

might be the change of seasons.

So my pulse changes from time to time.

Besides, I was ignorant

and took many potent supplements as a child.

Grandma, please don't overthink it.

How can supplements cause these strange symptoms?

I don't believe it.

Good thing Wu Xia is quite healthy now.

If you stay together, she might be infected by strange diseases just like you.

You two are destined to never be together.

Wu Xia,

I have no choice

but to ask you to leave Jiang Mansion.

- Madam Jiang! - Grandma!

Say no more.

I've made a decision.

Wu Xia, come with me.

I have something to tell you.

Grandma.

Wu Xia,

Yu'er has changed drastically ever since you arrived.

That's your accomplishment.

To be honest, I can't bear to let you go.

But since things are the way they are,

I have no other choice.

I hope you can understand.

It's been only half the contracted time.

If I leave now, I...

I would be too ashamed to return to Lang Ya Pavilion.

After you return, I'll explain the situation to Hai Tang.

This isn't your fault.

But Madam Jiang,

although I'm not destined to marry Young Master,

the inter-restriction is not so severe as to cause death.

There might be another cause for Young Master's illness.

Please look into it, Madam Jiang.

Wu Xia,

I still remember the bad omens while you were engaged.

What other reason could it be?

I know it isn't easy for you to be chosen to serve the Jiang Family,

and you have a deep affection for Yu'er.

But in terms of destiny, I'd rather believe its existence than ignore it.

Life is a long journey.

It's not beneficial for either of you if there's an inter-restriction of destiny.

It's for your own good to leave.

Besides,

I already lost a son.

I don't want to lose a grandson, too.

Can you understand how it feels

to lose a loved one?

I understand the pain of losing a loved one.

We'll take it as a breach of contract on our part.

I will pay every penny of the agreed amount on the contract.

I will personally write a letter to Hai Tang and tell her the situation. I will explain it all.

I won't make you suffer any unfair treatment or affect your status in Lang Ya Pavilion.

Besides that,

I also prepared some money for you.

I know you won't accept it with your personality.

However...

However, I hope you will take it as compensation from me.

Okay?

Don't stop me! Grandma!

Young Master, listen to me.

A'Chang, let him in.

Grandma, you can't make Wu Xia leave.

My illness has nothing to do with her.

Yu'er, you verified the misfortune brought by the engagement yourself.

You already experienced it all, but will you still not believe it?

Besides, are you going to question your uncle's diagnosis?

Grandma,

even if I can't recover from this strange disease, you can't make Master Shui leave.

Think of it. Master Shui is the reason for my positive changes.

If it wasn't for her, I would still be muddling along without any aim.

Grandma, please don't make her leave.

Even if this disease is incurable, I'm not afraid.

I'm afraid even if you're not!

You're the only heir of Jue'er.

I just want you to be healthy.

After Wu Xia leaves,

I'll ask Hai Tang to find another excellent maid to mentor you.

Master Shui is the most outstanding maid from the Lang Ya Pavilion. I don't want anyone else.

Yu'er!

Young Master. I've already decided to leave the Jiang Family.

- No, I- - That's enough.

Don't worry, Madam Jiang. I will convince Young Master.

I'll move back to the wing room today.

- Tomorrow... I'll leave the Jiang Mansion. - Master Shui...

You're sensible and considerate.

Grandma. Grandma!

It's all right. Master Shui,

she must be overwhelmed by all that happened lately.

When Grandma calms down, I'll persuade her again.

How?

Are you going to tell her that inter-restriction never existed?

She already believes we are in love with each other.

Why would she believe you?

Grandma usually listens to me.

I will surely figure something out.

You're the soft spot in her heart.

She will never make compromises on anything that would harm you.

I think if I were in her place, I would make the same choice.

It was a farce to begin with. It's time to put an end to it.

If I leave, it's probably the best.

Besides mentoring a master or getting married,

Lang Ya maids like you must spend the rest of their time at Lang Ya Pavilion.

If you leave, would it be hard for us to see each other again?

Lang Ya Pavilion will send someone to pick me up in five days.

I'll stay with Ba Xi for these five days.

If there's a vacancy for maids in Chong'an City, then I can stay.

If not, I must wait until next year to leave the pavilion.

It's up to fate if I can come to Chong'an again at that time.

That's all right.

We still have a few more days.

Don't worry. I will make sure you can stay.

Young Master! Young Master!

Disaster happened! Madam Jiang has sudden heart disease.

- Please check on her now! - Brother Shui, I'll check now!

Lady Shui.

How is Madam Jiang?

The servants said Grandma's condition wasn't serious.

But what has Young Master's illness to do with you?

- Madam Jiang is being unfair. - Yun Cheng.

Don't make assumptions. Grandma firmly believes in destiny.

She just doesn't want Lady Shui and Older Brother to hurt each other.

How about this? Wait here for me. I'll go persuade her.

Junior Young Master, I've already decided to leave.

Wu Xia, if you leave now,

the spot in the Ministry of Inspection and Reserve will go to Junior Young Master.

Although I would win, it's not a fair fight. You can't leave.

Lady Shui, you're not a quitter.

Give it more time.

There are many reasons I can't explain.

But once I've already decided to leave, I won't change my mind.

When I leave, I don't know when we'll see each other again.

Why don't we go to Lantern Boudoir tonight and drink until we drop?

Here, drink up!

Well, Lady Shui isn't leaving for sure.

If any vacancy for maids opens up in Chong'an these days,

we still have a chance to see each other.

When will Young Master arrive?

I already sent someone to notify him.

I'm sure he'll be here soon.

Didn't you say Grandma came down with a sudden heart disease?

Why are you stopping me?

Madam Jiang said you two shall not see each other again.

Shui Wu Xia will leave Jiang Mansion tomorrow morning.

So have you tricked me into coming here?

I will see Brother Shui now!

- Young Master! - Let go of me! Don't stop...

Madam Jiang also said excessive contact is bad for either of you.

It's better to cut your losses.

Today is the last time I'll see Master Shui.

Do you have to be like this?

Young Master,

Madam Jiang has been physically and mentally exhausted

due to your inter-restrictions.

It was true that she had chest pains.

To Madam Jiang,

the more time you spend together,

the more harmful it will be for either of you.

Madam Jiang does this for your own good.

You don't want Madam Jiang to fall ill again, right?

[Lantern Boudoir]

Let's not wait for him.

How about this? I'll toast to thank you for the farewell dinner.

I remember the last time we had a gathering

was at Double Seventh Festival in Jiang Province.

We drank so much and played games.

Why don't we play another game today?

Good idea. What will we play?

Let's all say the happiest moment

and the biggest regret we have with Wu Xia.

I'll go first.

The happiest thing for me

is to compete with Wu Xia

for the rest of our lives.

If it doesn't work this time,

we'll do it on return to Lang Ya Pavilion.

To me, you're my friend

and my opponent for life.

I finally understand.

It turned out you were the little whip who spurred me on all the time.

You're the one who urged me to make progress.

Okay. Let's compete until we grow old.

My biggest regret is that

I always treated you as my opponent

even though you're better than me in all aspects.

However, you are the only person

who was by my side over the years.

That's all I have. I'll save up the rest later.

That's all right, Lady Qi.

Lady Shui from Jiang Mansion already paid off your debt.

Wu Xia, thank you.

Fang Yun Cheng, it's your turn.

I... I want to share my biggest regret with you.

At first, Lady Qi was Young Master's maid.

How could they switch to Lady Shui instead?

But ever since Lady Shui arrived,

Young Master changed.

He used to be smart, brave, sensible, and considerate.

If it wasn't for the accident seven years ago,

he wouldn't turn out like this.

He's using his foppish behavior to resist the pain inside

his wounded heart.

Lady Shui, you're the one who healed Young Master's heart wound.

Now, I see Young Master has become more optimistic.

I can see more hope in his smiles.

I'm extremely happy.

Thank you, Lady Shui.

Don't thank me.

It's a blessing for Young Master to have a friend like you by his side.

In that case, it's my turn.

Ever since you arrived,

the happiest thing for me

is to see Older Brother's progress.

I've been noting your unique teaching,

and I've gained more understanding of it.

It's just individualized teaching. You flatter me, Junior Young Master.

Is that all?

No, no.

I have more to say.

I had feelings for you.

You entered into my life like the rising sun.

I tried my best to change myself for you.

I felt that you've brightened my life, too.

However...

It would have been great if I told you sooner.

Who doesn't have their own little sun?

Junior Young Master, do you still remember?

When I first came to Jiang Mansion,

you told me even as a lady,

we still hold the rights to choose our path in our own hands.

Just because of that,

you've brightened my life as well.

Lady Qi,

you... are also my little sun.

Lady Shui, what about you?

The happiest thing for me is that I've met all of you.

My biggest regret is that I'm leaving in such a hurry,

especially for Young Master.

Although he's unlearned, willful, playful,

careless, and extremely unreliable,

he has a good nature, and he's very smart.

It's too bad I'm leaving now he's finally improving.

The new maid might not be able to handle him.

Therefore, I want to ask you all to help me give him some advice.

We sure will.

This is way too sentimental. Let's control our emotions.

Yesterday is in the past.

Since we are all illuminating each other's lives,

from now on, we will be best friends.

That's right.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

We're all friends. Why should we be sad?

Come on, fill it up.

Here.

It's predestined for us to meet and enjoy a drink.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

Drink as much as you want today. It's my treat.

It turned out Jiang Bai Yu didn't come tonight as he was locked up.

Although all good things must come to an end,

I still feel bad now that I must leave.

A total of three whips.

That idiot.

Why do you leave since they asked you to?

I wonder what Jiang Bai Yu is doing now.

Also, Shen Qing Li,

will you come tonight?

What are you doing now?

If I told her earlier that I'm Shen Qing Li,

she would have stayed to marry me and never leave me again.

But if I told her I was Shen Qing Li,

I would certainly put her in danger in the future.

I really hate to leave Chong'an like this.
