[False face and true feelings]

[Episode 1]

Lady.

How's it going?

We have informed the marshal

that there would be an opium trade here.

But this is a church,

are you sure

that Ye Yifan will do it here?

[Gu Qingyan] I'm not,

[The daughter of the Gus] but he is here already.

[Ye Yifan, a killer of Hongmen]

Freeze.

Nobody moves. Sit tight.

Nobody moves.

You, don't move.

I know what you have done.

- The body will be found soon. - Sit put.

You have two options now.

Take me as your love.

So I will bear you out.

Stay still.

Or hold me hostage.

Sit.

Behave yourselves.

Stay where you are.

A man died here.

Don't move.

Everyone sits put.

How do you know if there is not a third option?

Sit.

[False face and true feelings]

Who sent you?

Nobody.

I just admired your guts

for killing in public

and wanted to help you.

You think I'll buy that?

If you don't buy it,

why did you

take me away?

Just in case.

If they come after me,

I may use one

of your options.

Did you search there?

Search here.

Yes.

Then

I prefer the first one

so your gun won't go off easily.

Let me ask you again,

who do you work for?

Could it be you?

Then I'd like

to choose the second option.

The two who killed Mr. Luo are there.

Go.

Yes.

Freeze.

I've heard about the mess in the church.

Are you alright?

Yes.

Mr. Luo's men didn't see my face.

[Song Manlin]

[The manager of New Metropolitan Ballroom] What's up?

[New Metropolitan Ballroom, Ticket]

Has your ballroom

recruited someone?

I remember

there was a new dancing girl

named

Xia Zhiqiu.

Xia Zhiqiu?

Could it be you?

Lady, are you alright?

Yes.

Ye Yifan was vicious enough.

He used me to distract the soldiers.

It seems I need more effort

to get close to him.

You let me call Marshal Shen's men there

not to catch Ye Yifan

but to help you get close to him?

What's the point of catching him?

He's just a killer

who works for his employer.

My target is Mr. Mo.

You really want to take revenge on Mr. Mo?

He killed my father,

how could I let him go?

Your father told you

to stay in Yuncheng during those years

because he wanted you

to stay out of the struggles of Rongcheng.

What's more,

Mr. Mo is a man so mysterious

that few people ever saw him.

That's why I started from Ye Yifan.

He works for Mr. Mo

and he once saved him.

So he should have seen him before.

Shall we get rid of those guys?

Since Mr. Luo died in the church,

if they talk nonsense,

Mr. Luo's father will come after you.

Then let them go to Mr. Mo's ballroom

to come after me.

From now on,

I'm no longer Gu Qingyan

but Xia Zhiqiu.

[New Metropolitan Ballroom]

[New Metropolitan]

What a small world, sir.

Here we are again.

Indeed?

Why does it feel

like a premeditation?

[New Metropolitan Ballroom Ticket]

I just wanted to try my luck.

I didn't expect to meet you here.

Since I accepted your ticket,

I have to dance with you.

All right.

You don't look very happy.

Ms. Xia, I'm sure

you know the reason.

So you've investigated me already.

But I still don't know your name.

That's not fair.

Am I a gullible man?

As a killer,

you must have many aliases.

How do I know which one

you want to use now?

You know me so well.

Wasn't it all planned by you?

What if it was?

Will you kill me?

I'm in no mood for this.

I just came to take back my stuff.

The weapon which looks like a pen?

I ditched it.

I'm not a patient man.

You'd better tell me

what exactly you want.

What if

I want you?

Master Luo's men are looking for me.

You got me into this trouble.

So, you have to help me out.

What makes you think

I'm not dangerous to you?
