[Speed and Love]

[Episode 17]

Well...

Mrs. Zhao.

Could you please not

tell my dad about what happened just now?

Mu,

I probably

shouldn't be the one saying this,

but I've watched Zhao grow up.

Life hasn't been easy on him these years.

He's been through a lot.

He's a reliable young man.

But I think...

Your mom

definitely won't approve.

You really need

to think this through carefully.

Honestly speaking,

I want Zhao to lead a good life.

Actually, since you came here,

I've already noticed

that you've had your mind

on him this whole time.

I came here just for him.

And I stayed for him, too.

Mrs. Zhao,

please help me.

Then let's just pretend

that I didn't see

what happened today.

Go get some rest.

How's it?

Did you find Jiang Mu?

He's in Jin Qiang's place.

When you called me,

I was almost worried sick.

Is she okay?

Listen, this is your fault.

You didn't explain things clearly to her.

This is way too dangerous.

I don't want her to get involved.

But that doesn't mean you can hide it from her.

What else can I do?

Tell her.

And make her worry about me?

You think you're protecting her.

You think she can't do anything.

Have you ever asked her?

Anyway, everything I did was

for her own good.

For her own good?

Do you know what she thinks?

Why do you think it was for her own good?

You think you know it better than me?

I just know it better!

You know what? I've heard the phrase,

"for his good," too many times since I was little.

It's completely useless, you know?

I don't want to argue with you.

Brandy!

Can you stop being so arrogant?

There's no way you can keep this a secret.

Today, she found out by accident.

But what about next time?

And the time after that?

Are you going to hide it every single time?

Instead of letting others tell her,

why don't you tell her yourself?

Because I know what I'm doing!

She's my girlfriend.

I don't need you to teach me.

Yes.

She is your girlfriend.

But she is Jiang Mu first!

Why are you here?

I'm here because I want you to persuade Jin Zhao

to stay away from the Association's affairs.

What Association?

You don't need to know about that.

Anyway, just talk to him.

He'll listen to you.

He's different from others.

If he just works steadily,

he'll make his mark someday.

He shouldn't get involved in those things.

What things?

You wouldn't understand even if I told you.

I also overheard it from my dad.

Anyway, just make sure he stays away from the Association no matter what.

The people there are dangerous.

They'll eat him alive

and leave nothing behind.

Jiang Mu,

you must try everything to persuade him

to stay away from the Association.

Tell him to quit

whatever he's doing right now.

Jin Zhao,

I need to talk to you.

Last night, I wasn't...

I know.

Zhao.

No matter what you're planning to do,

you must make sure you stay safe.

Can you promise me that?

I'll try.

Are you

doing those dangerous things

for money?

How did you find out about this?

Was it Wan Qing?

Did she ask you to talk me out of it?

So you're quite loyal.

Mom said

that she'll sell the house

and leave me some money.

So

would that be enough?

Listen.

It's not about the money.

It's so late. You came all this way

to ask me about this.

Aren't you tired?

Are you tired? I'll sleep with you.

No, no, no.

I mean,

you sleep, and I'll stay by your side.

Stay with me?

Then hang on. Let me take a shower.

What are you looking at?

I'm looking at your book.

Are you interested in it?

Not really.

In that Scramble

I accidentally got involved in,

was that bag the final prize?

Yes.

Who usually offers these prizes?

Whoever organizes it

provides the prize.

Organize?

Are you saying

that there's a huge organization

like the Association?

Is that usually how the games are played?

These casual games are rare.

They're held occasionally.

Only rich kids play these kinds of games.

What about the serious games then?

You've got some nerve asking that.

You don't have the guts to answer?

They are not anything good.

The less you know, the better.

Wan Qing was even willing to humble herself,

asking me to persuade Jin Zhao to give up

and not mess with the Association's interests.

What exactly is

this so-called Association?

Is it some sort of dangerous underground organization?

What on earth did Jin Zhao do?

I'm just there to make money.

Once I've earned enough, I'll leave.

It's not like I'm killing anyone.

What's the panic for?

Then...

Then how much longer are you going to keep this up?

Not long.

It'll be over soon.

How soon is "soon"?

At most...

Two weeks.

Two weeks?

So after 2 weeks,

you won't do such dangerous things anymore?

Yes.

I promise you.

Did you catch anything?

Here you are.

Take a break.

Looks like something's biting.

That's my float.

I know what to do.

I don't need you to teach me.

Fine.

The float really seems to be moving.

It's really moving! Look!

Get the net! Quickly!

Pull it over! Come on!

Don't lose it!

-Be careful. -Pull it closer.

-Catch it! -Got it!

Here it comes!

You asked me to lift the rod, didn't you?

And you asked me to get the net, right?

Remove it now.

You fished all day and only caught this one?

Be quiet.

I've thought it over.

You were right.

I was too arrogant.

I'm planning to find a chance

to explain everything clearly to her.

Brandy.

You know my family's situation.

My dad,

for the sake of his pride

and his so-called masculinity,

never tells anyone in the family

about anything that's happened.

He says it's for our own good.

But growing up,

I've seen my mom

get worried sick and scared too many times.

Do you really think that's good for us?

You're my bro.

Jiang Mu is my friend.

I don't want you to follow my dad's path.

I got it.

The float's really moving! Why didn't you tell me? Hey!

Get the net! Hurry!

Probably just trash again.

Hurry!

Pull it over.

It's gone.

It got away.

So that was really a fish this time.

It's all your fault that I lost my fish.

Have a drink.

-Drink and then take it easy to fish. -The rod.

You fish, and I'll net for you.

It's because you came and scared all the fish away.

Did you catch a single one before I came?

Of course I did! You're joking.

[Speeding Auto House]

Jiang Mu!

Did you talk to him?

Yes, I did.

Did he agree?

Yes.

He said 2 weeks.

After 2 weeks,

he will stay away from these dangerous things.

I believe him.

What's the use of your belief?

You know what?

He'll be in trouble before 2 weeks are up.

Brandy!

Brandy, we've got a problem!

What's wrong?

The car was smashed.

Where's Iron Cock?

He said his father was gravely ill

and left after a quick update this morning.

I took an outside order this morning. Then I saw

the shop wasn't busy, so I went there.

But when I arrived, I didn't see anyone.

Master, I'm sorry.

It was my fault for being negligent.

It must be that old bastard from Wan's who did it.

So despicable.

Sanlai, stop talking nonsense.

Which eye of yours saw it?

I-I really don't know anything about this.

Get lost.

Jin Zhao.

Let me explain.

I came here today to warn you.

I would never mean to harm you.

I said, get lost!

Don't you understand what I'm saying?

Fine, Jin Zhao.

Listen.

Whether you live or die,

I won't care anymore.

Sanlai,

escort Mu home.

Okay.

Let's go.

Check the things.

Okay, Master.

Do you remember when you were little,

you failed your exam

and were too scared to ask your mom to sign it?

After I signed it for you,

the teacher found out and called for a parent meeting.

You cried your eyes out

like it was the end of the world.

I told you,

"It's not a big deal.

I can handle it."

Remember that?

Do you trust me?

Yes, I do.

Then go back to Jin Qiang's place,

sleep well,

and rest properly.

Don't think about this mess.

Cheer up,

okay?

He Zhang!

Madam.

Coming.

Here.

How about 2 more of these?

Okay.

All right.

This one.

Are these okay?

T-That guy.

That guy has been to the garage before, right?

I don't know him.

You don't?

I think I've seen him at the garage before.

Don't you remember?

Do you know how many people come

to the garage for car repair every day?

I'm swamped.

How can I remember everyone's face?

But later, when we ran

into this man at the market,

Jin Zhao said he had no impression of him at all.

These will do.

Yeah.

See you next time.

Bye-bye.

Young lady.

Are you looking for me?

No, I'm not.

If you're not looking for me, why do you keep following me?

I... I...

I'm looking for my classmate.

Pan Kai!

Pan Kai, over here!

Mu, what brings you here?

What a coincidence! Do you live around here?

Yes, my dad's factory is just over there.

I'm buying some fruit for him.

That's nice.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to find someone.

Find someone?

Do I know them?

I don't even know them myself.

What fruit are you buying?

I bought a mango.

Pick some for me, too.

-I also like mango. -Okay!

I'll buy some for you.

Is this enough?

That girl has been tailing me.

She must know something.

Handle it by yourself.

Remember,

your biggest rival in the mountain race is

He Zhang from Wan's.

Here you are.

You need to defeat him

and stay safe, too.

Okay.

Just as I thought.

What do you mean by that?

That person

told you he saw me?

You know way too much.

You're not going to kill me to silence me, are you?

What do you think we do?

Since you've already heard about me from Wan Qing,

you should know my situation.

When I had worked for Wan Shengbang

for about 2 and a half years,

they occasionally

had me do some jobs outside the garage.

There was one time when his driver had an accident.

The deposit was paid, but no one would race.

So he turned to me.

He wanted me to leave the garage

and do this job for him.

But I refused.

Later, Jin Xin needed money for surgery.

I wanted to help them,

so I borrowed money from Sanlai.

I bought a car,

modified it overnight,

and sold it at a high price.

Later, that car had an accident.

I always thought it was because

of my technical oversight.

I felt very guilty for those 2 years.

I worked desperately to earn money

to compensate that family.

But later,

I realized it wasn't my fault.

Wan Dayong tampered with that car.

I was set up.

After that, I left Wan's.

That's when Officer Lu approached me.

Officer Lu is from the Anti-smuggling Bureau.

They were working on a major case.

At first, they just wanted some leads from me.

Until later, when I approached him.

That was after your arrival.

What they're investigating isn't

Wan Shengbang at all,

nor is it any street racing organization.

Through illegal street racing,

they're trying to track down

the smuggling gang behind it.

But this Association is very cautious.

Having someone infiltrate it out of nowhere is

simply impossible.

Your points in the Association must reach the top ranks

for you to get noticed by those higher-ups.

Brandy!

I've told you

that we don't allow outsiders here.

Anti-smuggling Bureau officers found it hard to infiltrate

until I came along.

I told Officer Lu

that I could keep racing and competing

to earn points

and get into the alliance

to gather the information he needs.

I'm ranked in the top 10 in points.

If someone had to do this job,

I'd be the best choice.

Because you had racing experience before,

those in the Association wouldn't suspect you.

Quite smart.

However,

that was only part of the reason.

I had an opportunity that was beyond suspicion.

They thought I was getting involved

due to my grudge against Wan Shengbang.

I had fallen out with him

and gone against him.

I heard

that you're planning to interfere with the business in Xikouguan.

Quite ambitious, aren't you?

Whether I interfere or not isn't up to you.

It's not up to me either.

We'll see who has what it takes.

You're really something,

climbing the ranks ahead of others

and getting so much attention

in such a short time.

Aren't you obviously

going against Mr. Wan?

Listen!

Don't be naive.

It's not too late to back off now.

Although this is just one factor.

What about the others?

Officer Lu promised me...

As long as we solve this case,

he will make sure Wan Shengbang

and his accomplices are brought to justice.

Once they're under arrest,

I can successfully clear my name.

The street racing organization is

actually just a front.

They use street racing

to observe

and groom people who can take over their business.

Not everyone has the capability

and mental fortitude to handle this job.

Only those top scorers in the alliance

can get noticed.

It's because these people

all share some common traits.

They're brave,

reckless,

and need money.

600 HP!

650 HP!

It looks like RX7 has gone past 700 HP.

Brandy, you're going hard tonight.

You've already qualified. No need to risk your life.

So they damaged your car

because they didn't want you to join the race?

Wan Shengbang knows

that if our dispute comes out into the open,

the alliance won't stand by and do nothing.

There's only one solution

that can settle this matter.

What solution?

According to custom,

if both parties can't reconcile privately,

they shall resort to the most traditional solution,

settling it with a car race.

The losing side

must not cause trouble for the other anymore.

This is the rule.

Can your car be fixed then?

It can be fixed.

But I need some parts.

More importantly,

I need to find a reliable repair shop

willing to take on this job.

I want to clear my name.

Especially since you came,

I've wanted it even more.

I want to prove myself,

to prove that at least,

I'm still worthy of you.

Actually, on my way here,

I was thinking about how to smooth over this issue

to put your mind at ease.

But when I was almost here, I realized something.

If I told a lie for now

to cover up this problem,

then in the future,

I would have to come up with all kinds of excuses

to maintain that lie

and keep you worrying.

Instead of doing that,

I might as well come clean to you.

Mu,

I've explained everything

that I can explain.

Go back to hit the sack,

okay?

This thing sounds super dangerous.

Do you really have to do it?

I can't let them keep doing evil anymore.

This is something

only I can handle.

Even if

it means sacrificing myself.
