[False face and true feelings]

[Episode 23]

Annian, could you take me in?

You seem

to be blaming me.

You used me, didn't you?

You didn't believe

the intelligence I gave you.

You wanted to kill Ye Yifan.

You bought over Mr. Liu

and pretended to be in danger.

When I went to question him,

you took action.

You knew

he would risk his life to protect me

and thus let down his guard.

Then you took that chance to raid his forces.

Since Ye Yifan was badly wounded,

he couldn't help them,

that's how you took them out one by one.

Wasn't it

what you expected, too?

Indeed.

But if he hadn't saved me,

I would have been dead.

Annian.

You have been the one who set the trap.

And I am just a pawn for you.

Since it was either him or me,

I couldn't have too many concerns.

It was true he tried to kill me with my father.

So I had to do it first.

After all, I couldn't let him know

that it was I

who suggested my father kill the Mos 15 years ago.

You were just ten then.

How could you be so merciless?

My father was a military governor,

but I couldn't

acquire such power when I was born

because I was his concubine's son.

No matter how much effort

I spent more than my brothers,

my father wouldn't grant me the power.

So I had

to find a way to get it.

I needed to show Shen Wancheng

that I was more outstanding

than his other sons.

You controlled your father?

No.

I killed him.

Qingyan. Tell me.

Can I trust you?

Certainly.

After all,

I have nobody else to rely on,

right?

Okay.

Since you said so,

let me show you someone.

Meng Huaizuo, why are you here?

I followed him for so many years.

Yet he hurt me badly

for a mere woman.

Do you think

I can still be loyal to him?

You know all the forces he conceals.

So he is doomed

as he lost you.

What?

What did you say?

Quarrel with me

in the church three days later.

Quarrel?

Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan, shame on you.

You are so short-tempered.

Gu Qingyan.

Yifan almost got killed

for you

and Mr. Meng betrayed him because of you.

But you turned to Shen Annian.

I'm afraid you have forgotten

that Ye Yifan killed my father.

It's his duty to save me.

It was your father

who did unforgivable things first.

Even now,

you are still so irrational.

Fine. Let me teach you a lesson

for Yifan.

Miss Su, I wouldn't get ahead of myself

if I were you.

If you do this again,

I won't just hurt your hand.

Gu Qingyan, this is not over.

You will pay for it.

Young master.

Miss Su had a big fight with Miss Gu.

It is getting worse.

Shall we send our men to handle it?

No.

Tell everyone

to advance the action.

Yes.

[Kill Ye Yifan at the hour of Hai the day after tomorrow.]

Who told you to do that?

Who else except your Miss Gu?

She said another person

would draw suspicion,

so only I could do it.

Yifan, you have no idea

how scary it was.

I risked my life

to deliver the message for you.

How could you blame me?

So you knew it was risky.

Don't do it again.

Meng Huaizuo can take care of everything.

Mr. Meng didn't betray you?

Does Miss Gu

know he was sent by you?

What?

You fear

that she may kill him?

I...

Meng Huaizuo deserves it

if he's so useless.

Mr. Mo.

Enough.

Meng Huaizuo will be fine.

Qingyan said

that Shen Annian had killed Marshal Shen already

and contacted all the big families.

He will take action soon.

Shall I get rid

of those families?

No.

They are still on our side.

They will fight fire with fire.

So everything

is going on as you planned?

That is...

Shen Annian thinks he is close

to his target.

In fact, he is going to his end step by step.

You came because you worried about me?

I remember our plan

was to pretend to fall out.

But I didn't ask you to stay in the Shens' mansion.

You told me to try to stay away from danger,

but how could I agree?

Like I guessed.

Did you send Meng Huaizuo?

To keep you safe.

What do you think Shen Annian's next plan

will be?

I asked him to meet me at the dock.

Don't do things rashly.

Manlin will contact you

when the situation calls for it.

I missed you.

I have to go.

Be safe.

Ye Yifan, what is your plan?

Are you going to face everything alone again?

Annian.

This is the chicken soup I cooked for you.

Have some.

Your hands

are not used to cook.

Why don't you

try it for me?

Annian.

I made this in person for you.

Qingyan.

Don't use your tricks for Ye Yifan

on me.

Annian, what do you mean?

Are you suspecting me?
