- [The Lion's Secret] - [Original novel is “My Wife Falls in Love with Me“, written by Ao Wuchang]

He's holding a grudge against us.

[Previously]

That's easy.

You're not the only one who owes him.

Fine.

I'm sure that you definitely

will be the prettiest bride.

Don't you love Er Gou?

How can you give it away?

If I want to treat it well,

I must give it true freedom and happiness.

Youyou caught mom and dad

on a date.

Will you marry me?

He cheated on me.

I don't think Liu Qing is such a man.

Well, I guess we were all fooled by him.

[Episode 31]

[Places in this story are purely invented.]

Boss,

by locating his mobile phone,

we got that he had been to Victor's pub.

You were right.

Lion threw us off

really for nosing out our intention.

He's now already at our door.

Out of my way. I must go find my brother.

Get away!

Miss, don't be angry.

This is your brother's order.

It's been unsafe outside.

This is for your own good.

[One month ago, Ocarwen City]

Yuting, it's me, your brother.

Let me take you away from here.

What?

Leave here?

Yes, immediately.

Where to go?

Drago.

So, what on earth happened?

Where have you been for all those years?

Why would I get kidnapped?

When we arrive at the safe place,

I will tell you.

I think we should now

contact Liu Qing first.

There's no time.

Don't worry.

You will see him.

Can't you stop messing around?

Brother,

why are you confining me here?

I'm not confining you.

I'm protecting you.

You said you need to keep away from Andrew's men.

So you also forbid me from going out.

But now I even can't go out of the room.

Besides, tell me the truth.

Was my being kidnapped last time

your trick?

Yuting.

How can you think your brother like this?

Over there years, he has risked everything

just for reuniting with you.

Since he's found you now,

why is it necessary for him to

cheat you? -Don't pretend anymore.

I've seen the scar on that guy's arm.

It's totally the same to the scar

on the kidnapper's arm.

That scar...

The scar

is just a mark of a local force.

Those men were at first hired by Andrew to deal with your brother,

but your brother finally won them over.

How could Andrew bother going to Ocarwen

just for kidnapping me?

Don't you think that's too silly?

It was just for dealing with your brother

that they would hurt you.

Then since you found me,

why didn't you take me somewhere else

but to such a dangerous place?

If we do not destroy Andrew,

we won't be safe anywhere.

Now we are no match for Andrew.

And that's why we need you to lure him here.

But this is too selfish.

Yuting, it's not that complicated.

When he arrives here,

your brother will make it clear to him,

and everything will be settled.

But if you let Liu Qing do such dangerous things,

sister Wanqing will worry about him.

Yuting.

You also expect him to come, right?

Idiot.

Bro, I know you're sure to come.

Come.

Sit down. There's enough time for chatting.

Come.

Since you're alive,

why haven't you let us know?

Bro, I have my own reason.

After we got into trouble that year,

I have been under their monitoring.

If I went to look for you rashly,

you would also be put in danger.

Where's Yuting?

Don't worry.

She's very safe here.

Since you're all safe,

I'm gonna head out.

Bro,

I made lots of efforts to invite you here.

You can't just leave so hastily.

By the way,

why didn't Lei Shuo and Fengyu come with you?

Boss know you're reliable.

This time we invite you here

because we have a big problem.

We cannot solve it

without you.

Right.

If this problem remains unsolved,

I really can't survive this time.

You won't abandon me again, will you?

Come, bro.

Let me introduce to you.

Parenka. Simon.

Our partners.

We and Simon

lost a batch of goods for Andrew.

Andrew is a cruel guy.

If we can't find back the goods,

he will kill all of us.

So we can only buy the same goods to solve the problem.

Among the sellers in Drago,

only Septis has enough goods.

But he's been bearing a grudge against us,

and refuses to sell the goods to us.

Boss wants you

to contact his men by pretending to be the buyer.

What's wrong?

They are that cautious,

so they won't easily trade with a stranger,

let alone an Asian stranger.

That's true.

But Simon got the news that

Septis lately is urgently selling

a batch of goods.

But his old customers don't have enough money for it.

Here are 500,000 dollars for the deposit.

Take the money and go to negotiate with them.

You just need to let them show up and trade with you.

But I still think it ridiculous.

But, if you insist on it,

I shall do as you wish.

But I have to make it clear,

I can't guarantee you the result.

How can it be?

I believe in you, bro.

[Drago Casino]

Septis is right inside.

Count on you, bro.

I've heard of this man.

Can we trust him?

Of course, you can trust me anyway.

Bro.

Money.

This is far less than what I need.

This friend from Ocarwen.

You don't really know about our price.

This amount of money is only enough for this.

Then why don't you go rob money!

Good idea.

Since we cannot do business,

why don't we just play for fun?

Let's play just one game. What do you think?

Okay.

Hit?

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah.

There's an old saying in my place.

It says, "get off the doggie's tail".

Oh yeah? What does it mean?

It means you're gonna lose.

I don't think so.

Because today, the only loser is you.

Yes.

Bye.

Have a good day.

Nice boy.

Give me my money.

Simon.

Hey.

Mr. Liu, Boss said you were very courageous.

We will contact you when the goods are ready.

You've kept your word

and came alone.

Where are the goods?

Follow me.

Are these okay?

I don't think these are enough.

After you transfer the money to us,

we will give you the rest half.

I shall make a phone call to my boss.

They only brought half of the goods here,

saying that as long as you transfer the money to them,

you will see the rest half.

Half of the goods are enough.

Leave those two behind you to me.

Deal with those two in front of you yourself.

What the hell are you talking about?

Li Mo.

Calm down. Calm down.

Don't move if you wanna live.

Mission aborted. Mission aborted.

Septis's men were ambushed.

Septis's men were ambushed.

Who the hell are you?

You're not with Septis?

Are you going to keep silent like this?

Are you with the Interpol?

Or with Andrew?

Where's Liu Qing?

He's been in the car.

I don't know what they are chatting.

I advise you to make the most of your chance to live

by telling me the truth.

Maybe I can help you.

That's the one

who killed all those people back there.

He doesn't have a good temper as I do.

To him, you're nothing but a drag.

And he likes to torture people.

He enjoys

the sight of their agony.

It seems all I can do

is to offer you quick death.

I'm an undercover agent with Special Military Unit.

Our target is not only Septis,

but the whole arms network in Drago.

If you want to keep out of the business,

just stop the trade,

and we will help you.

You ever heard of Tom?

I'm here to assist you.

What are you doing?

We're brothers, aren't we? Is this necessary?

Just for an outsider?

Don't you think you should be honest with me?

About what?

Why didn't you tell me anything

before the move?

For fear of your getting softhearted.

Don't you remember our action in Bazhen?

It was because you got soft then

that I got trapped.

Both Otter

and Leopard

lost their lives.

You killed Yan Jing, right?

Yes.

I did you a favor.

And it was also a favor to that little girl

and Mu Wanqing.

Why would you do so?

Because I'm lonely.

I want to let you accompany me,

and help me.

Help you with what?

This is just a beginning.

Just a beginning.

Hand him over to me.

Let me handle him.

Look at you.

Softhearted again, right?

I know it's hard for you.

So let me handle him.

He's with the Special Military Unit.

An undercover agent of Tom.

Let him live.

He may be of use to you.

You can go see my sister now.

She prepared pastries and tea specially for you.

You're supposed to know how to chat with her.

Don't put her into a dilemma.

Over the matters about Septis and Andrew,

I have a plan.

I shall talk to you tomorrow.

Go.

Hi, Liu Qing.

This is too official.

Brother, you're finally here!

When did you come here?

Don't worry. I heard nothing

about what you just said.

Come on.

It's all over now.

Come, let me have a look at you.

It's okay, don't cry anymore.

Where's my brother?

He's busy now.

Sit down.

What did you do today?

He talked about his business with me.

Brother,

you wouldn't be angry with me, would you?

Why would I be angry with you?

I came here not just for you,

but also for Li Mo.

But don't you feel that

my brother is very different

from the one he was before.

Sometimes for surviving,

one's appearance

may more or less get changed,

especially that he

has suffered so much.

But I believe,

deep down inside,

he's still the Li Mo we knew before.

Let's not talk about this.

Seeing that you're unscathed,

I can now rest assured.

Before you came here this time,

have you told sister Wanqing about it?

I suppose it won't take too long.

I believe matters here can be settled very soon,

right?

What if it isn't going well?

What you're working on

is dangerous, isn't it?

It's not Aoka City here.

So of course there can be some risks.

But,

with your brother and I joining hands,

all matters can be settled.

I only hope you two can stay safe.

I don't want you two

to do anything risky.

But there's always someone

destined to choose an unsafe life path,

such as

your brother and me.

He's truly a wise guy.

He definitely knew we're monitoring him.

And the latter half of what he said

was mostly for lecturing you.

I let him accompany Yuting.

He then tried to lecture me instead!

From his tone,

we can at least get that

he spoke with sincerity.

Next,

I believe he will help you sincerely.

He said

he would tell me his plan tomorrow.

You truly know him better.

He's already had a plan.

After all he's Lion.

I'm waiting for your answer.

You saved my life. I appreciate it.

But you want the squad to work with you, especially all his special people,

it's not gonna work.

Looks like you don't quite understand

your situation right now.

If you don't cooperate,

then you have no value to us.

Are you threatening me?

Yes.

I'm just an ordinary person coming to help.

I'm not killer.

I just wanna take my friends home.

We're not the Drago's dealers.

Tell me.

You and your superiors.

What is your appeal?

Fight with Septis.

Why him?

Why do you choose such a small-time dealer

rather than a bigger target like Andrew?

For us, Andrew is out of reach.

Our resources are limited.

And his eyes are everywhere,

even in the government.

So we can only do it gradually,

step by step.

I guess,

just a guess.

You're dying to bring down Andrew.

You just don't get to the right opportunity.

You may have crossed paths before.

But you failed that time.

Cooperate with us,

plus that Septis,

all three of us can take out Andrew.

To your special task unit,

it is pointless to destroy small timers like Septis.

Only when you got Andrew,

you can say you've

swept up the entire network of Drago.

If I will make this work,

am I free?

That depends on what you choose.

I see what you mean.

Septis doesn't know who I am.

So you want to use me

to negotiate with him.

We even don't know each other.

But you're going to use us to fight with Septis,

to fight with that monster?

You're crazy.

That's right.

I also think you are crazy,

even crazier than me.

But with you joining us,

it has become more interesting.

Come.

Come, let me help you tease it out.

This

represents Septis.

We just robbed a batch of his goods.

We originally planned to give the goods to Andrew

to pay the debt.

But we found the special task unit

placed an undercover agent around Septis.

Then,

this undercover agent Jerry got discovered by Liu Qing.

And this is an opportunity.

With this Jerry as our trump card,

we can negotiate with Septis,

saying that Jerry has lots of evidence of his crime.

If he does not cooperate,

we shall hand over Jerry

to the Tom of the special task unit,

forcing Septis

to fight against Andrew

together with us.

Once Andrew and Septis begin to fight,

we can let Tom's men

come to wipe them out.

Only by doing so can we

get Andrew's power minimized.

But the problem is that

Septis has great feud with us.

Who should we send to talk with him?

Me of course.

Jerry has told me the condition there.

But what if they get annoyed

and get you killed?

Then we shall lose both you and the goods.

If it really goes like that,

then I beg you for mercy

to spare all people related to me.

If you say so,

then next it will be easier.

But what about Tom and his special task unit?

I'm to sacrifice my life, and you just need to sacrifice money.

Give part of the goods to him.

In this way,

he can maneuver in the military more easily.

Then what's my task?

You're responsible for the most difficult

but also the most critical part.

Persuade Andrew to help us

wipe out Septis

in exchange for this batch of goods.

Aren't the goods to be sent

to Tom for maneuvering?

The goods are in our hands.

We can play with the two sides at the same time.

The key point now

is how to get this cunning Andrew hooked.

Search intelligence of Andrew immediately.

Find out his weakness.

Okay.

It's his turn to suffer torture now.

This will make Andrew suffer great losses.

So he's sure to wreak vengeance on us.

And then

we can lure him to show up,

and get him killed.

Right.

Let's get it done

and we'll never have to think about it again.

Cheers.

This time we came back to Drago,

things can be different from those in the company.

We have to be cautious.

[Hotel]

That's true.

But look at the hotel you booked.

I even don't know where we are now. How can we live here?

No caller ID. I don't know who this is.

Just pick it up.

Hello, who's this?

Hey, Lei Shuo.

Mu... Mu Wanqing?

Who?

Mu Wanqing.

Hold on, hold on.

Hey, Mu Wanqing.

Are you looking for Jundie?

Yeah, right.

Where's she?

She's not with me.

Then where are you now?

I... I and... um... I...

Mu Wanqing, you got an emergency?

I'm busy now. I will call you later.

Have you arrived there?

Where? What are you talking about?

What should I say?

Hang it up, hang it up.

Tell Wu Fengyu, don't cut the video.

The reception's terrible, the reception's terrible.

Enough, put it on speaker.

Tell you what, don't think about avoiding me.

Even the hotel you're living in

was introduced by me.

Lei Shuo, Wu Fengyu.

I've arrived in Drago.

I've also known what Liu Qing's doing.

Ms. Mu, you're really a heroine.

Well, we just arrived in this dangerous place,

being so afraid of getting noticed.

And then we just got noticed by you.

Please don't blame us

or Liu Qing.

It was all Fengyu's idea.

You know Liu Qing better than I do.

He left a divorce agreement to me.

I'm sure there must be something wrong.

He wouldn't want to divorce me.

So, your trick just now

was really too naive.

It was even an insult to my IQ.

Yeah, that was naive, too naive.

We were wondering that

why you didn't...

Why I didn't do what?

Why I didn't break down?

Or why I didn't get desperate?

No, I didn't mean that.

It's just your phone call came too suddenly,

and we were really unprepared for that.

You two tell me the truth,

why would he come here?

And what are you two doing here?

Mu Wanqing,

are you really in Drago now?

Fine, you two just stay where you are.

I have something to handle.

Later I'll come upstairs to see you.

Here you are.

So tell me,

did you come alone?

There are some things I have to explain to you clearly.

Here I come.

We sincerely want to cooperate with you.

Honesty.

You see, guys.

Well, I hope you're more honest than me.

I've met a lot of courageous people.

They take my goods and kill my people.

How dare you come and swagger

to me about cooperation!

You listen now,

I will torture you to death now.

I'll find out too your companions all.

And kill them one by one.

I want your guys to know

that to offend Septis is to pay it out then in price.

Jerry is an undercover...

Stop.

What did you say?

Jerry,

is probably an undercover agent.

Evidence is in my pocket.

That's what we found on Jerry.

The latest military eavesdropping device.

That's interesting.

Who are you, huh?

Using Jerry to threaten me.

You thought I'd be afraid of you?

No.

I'm here to help you.

Bravo!

First, to kill Jerry,

then you come here to talk to me.

I will not betray him.

Then you have forced my hand.

You have five seconds.

Four,

three,

two,

one.

Just kidding.

Uncuff him, stand him up.

You don't look like someone who would help someone else.

So tell me,

what is your connection with Andrew?

Actually, we have nothing to do with Andrew.

My brother is under Andrew's thumb.

Andrew took offense at his skill.

And he hope we can all work for him.

But we're not supposed to be here.

So

We want to get rid of Andrew as soon as possible

and go home.

I see.

It looks like you made plans.

But why

should I trust you?

Tom's target is always Andrew.

If Andrew is knocked down,

the market will reshuffle.

But each one of us?

We're no match for Andrew.

That's why we must unite.

And he promised, if we work together

to take down Andrew,

after the job's done,

you will be able to

take over Andrew's business.

Cheers, my friend.

She even hid it from Fu Jundie,

suddenly disappeared from our view,

and followed us all the way to Drago.

Liu Qing's plan fails now!

He risked his life,

and carried the charge of hurting Mu Wanqing

just for protecting her from getting involved.

They are different people,

but finally got together.

And that's because both of them are stubborn.

Once they've made up their mind,

they would never give up, no matter how hard it is.

The door's unlocked.

There's not much time for us.

I just got some news.

It's said that an Asian man

fought violently

with the local criminals,

and robbed their goods.

Liu Qing came here from far away,

how could he rob others' goods with Li Mo?

Could it be that he got under Li Mo's thumb?

I don't care about the details.

But generally I'm sure that

Li Mo used a certain condition

to force Liu Qing into doing things for him.

That's Li Mo's style.

He needed Liu Qing's help.

But we've now lost contact with Liu Qing.

We can't reach him on his phone.

Because,

he doesn't want you to find him.

Do you have any plan now?

We had another comrade before.

He was very close to Liu Qing,

but had no contact with Li Mo.

He owns a pub in Drago.

We can go find him.

I think we should split up.

I just got in touch with the local authorities.

They also say

they are troubled

by these underground trading networks.

They also want to solve this problem.

They introduced me

to the head of a special task unit.

The government's outsource task unit

may be our old acquaintance.

If that's the case,

it will be much more convenient for our action.

I think they can help us

trace Liu Qing and Li Mo.

We'll play it by ear then.

No.

We can't let you take that risk.

Okay, you guys need to stop

talking about protecting me.

I know you've been through a lot on the battlefield.

But you really don't know

what real protection is

for women.

We'll split up.

You go find your comrade,

and I'll find the man in charge.

Wait.

Fengyu can meet Victor alone.

I'll accompany you to meet the head man.

Okay.

[Next Episode]

I am

responsible for protecting your Mu Wanqing

as her bodyguard.

Looks like we'll be fighting side by side again.

Is it safe to talk here?

Just relax.

So long as you are here, your secret is safe.

It's been like this since he walked in.

He took off the bug.

Septis's men began to show visible signs of unrest.

However, he wants us to kill Septis first.

Where is Andrew?

Solow and I

give you a lot of credit.

We have nothing to talk about.
