[Episode 15]
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:53.280
Your Majesty,
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:54.570
after days of investigation,
00:01:54.590 --> 00:01:55.990
this is the only location we found.
00:01:56.430 --> 00:01:58.050
Kumor chose to set up camp here.
00:01:58.310 --> 00:01:59.210
With mountains on three sides,
00:01:59.230 --> 00:02:00.616
it's easy to defend and hard to attack.
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.260
And their defenses are extremely tight.
00:02:02.350 --> 00:02:03.180
The Xiaoxing Guards
00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:05.100
haven't found a chance to slip inside.
00:02:05.790 --> 00:02:07.050
Any news of the Empress?
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:09.360
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
00:02:09.710 --> 00:02:11.630
Kumor is still waiting
for the peace delegation,
00:02:11.750 --> 00:02:14.260
so he is unlikely to harm her rashly.
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:15.520
But
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:18.570
the delegation hasn't
arrived at the appointed time.
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:21.340
What's Ling Jueding doing now?
00:02:21.870 --> 00:02:22.660
He's in the military camp
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:23.680
and has made no move.
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:25.410
At least he still has some sense left.
00:02:25.710 --> 00:02:27.290
If he acts now,
00:02:27.630 --> 00:02:30.010

Kumor,
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:13.126
what is that darn emperor,
Xiao Huan, trying to pull?
00:03:13.150 --> 00:03:14.780
Didn't he say someone
would arrive within five days?
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:15.730
It's already the eighth.
00:03:15.750 --> 00:03:16.750
Where are they?
00:03:16.870 --> 00:03:17.980
Are they coming or not?
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:20.410
We have his empress in our hands.
00:03:20.710 --> 00:03:21.820
Why panic?
00:03:22.750 --> 00:03:24.126
He's the one who should be anxious.
00:03:24.150 --> 00:03:27.100
But is Lin Cangcang really his empress?
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:28.980
If she weren't,
00:03:29.430 --> 00:03:32.060
would that darn emperor
have sent a delegation at all?
00:03:32.870 --> 00:03:34.220
But if she is,
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:35.690
why are they dragging their feet?
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:38.340
Naturally, they want to test our patience.
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:41.780
That makes sense.
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.890
But what Lin Cangcang
said didn't sound like lies.
00:03:46.310 --> 00:03:47.310
Minjia,

go and test her yourself.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

It seems this outfit suits you well.
00:04:59.070 --> 00:05:00.070
It fits perfectly.
00:05:00.630 --> 00:05:02.980
Thank you for arranging it, Your Highness.
00:05:03.510 --> 00:05:05.100
You're a prisoner here.
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:06.410
Why are you still so cheerful?
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:07.480
Why shouldn't I be?
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:09.780
I eat well and sleep well here.
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:11.600
It's far better than wandering homeless.

I truly don't know why
Kumor values you so much.
00:05:18.510 --> 00:05:19.250
Indeed.
00:05:19.270 --> 00:05:21.220
It is strange that your brother values
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:23.410
a thief like me so much.
00:05:24.510 --> 00:05:26.220
The more you insist you're a thief,
00:05:26.390 --> 00:05:27.780
the more suspicious you seem.
00:05:28.510 --> 00:05:30.791
Then Your Highness might as
well treat me as the Empress.
00:05:31.070 --> 00:05:32.660
Since you're so easygoing,
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:35.170
would you like to go for a ride with me?

Your surname is Lin,
00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:52.810
and so is that of the Jiangzhou commander.
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:54.900
Is that really a coincidence?
00:05:55.390 --> 00:05:56.700
Mine is Lin, as in "forest."
00:05:57.190 --> 00:05:59.730
The Jiangzhou commander's
is Ling, as in "lingxiao flower."
00:06:00.510 --> 00:06:02.610
Different characters.

Different pronunciations.
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:04.800
Why,
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:07.660
having fought General Ling
for so long, you can't even
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:08.700
get his surname right?

You're just a prisoner.
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:13.000
What gives you the right to mock me?
00:06:15.390 --> 00:06:16.540
I spoke out of turn.
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:17.920
Please forgive me, Your Highness.
00:06:18.430 --> 00:06:19.580
That's better.
00:06:19.830 --> 00:06:20.850

Wherever Your Highness wishes to go,
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.170
I will follow
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:31.240

00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:32.900
You sure are adaptable.
00:06:33.630 --> 00:06:35.290
Now I'm really inclined to believe
00:06:35.630 --> 00:06:37.020
you're just a thief.
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:38.360
Let's go.
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:39.560
Yes.
00:07:03.270 --> 00:07:04.270
Your Majesty,
00:07:04.310 --> 00:07:05.370
their force is thin.
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:07.410
Should we seize Her Majesty now?
00:07:07.430 --> 00:07:08.430
Not yet.
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:10.140
They may have come out prepared.
00:07:10.190 --> 00:07:11.230
Send word to Ling Jueding.
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:12.810
Tell him to act as circumstances require
00:07:12.830 --> 00:07:14.030
and put the big picture first.
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:16.000
Understood.
00:07:37.750 --> 00:07:39.410
It's just a small city,
00:07:39.510 --> 00:07:40.410
yet Kumor's wasted
00:07:40.430 --> 00:07:42.050
so much time here.
00:07:42.070 --> 00:07:43.340
I want to see for myself
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:45.020
what exactly they're capable of.
00:07:45.070 --> 00:07:45.610
Your Highness,
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:47.780
the two armies are in a truce.
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:49.410
This is provocation.
00:07:49.430 --> 00:07:50.540
So what if it is?
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:51.800
You may be scared, but I'm not.
00:08:17.190 --> 00:08:18.850
Who goes there?
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:20.370

00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:22.050

You think I'm scared of you?

That's right.
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:10.760
We used to be romantically involved.
00:11:10.910 --> 00:11:12.610
But we've already parted ways.
00:11:12.630 --> 00:11:13.700
Yes, we parted ways.
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:15.560

How did you two meet?
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:21.850
I founded Fenglai Pavilion
back in Southern Chu.
00:11:21.870 --> 00:11:23.190
She was recruiting a hall master,
00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:24.530
so I went to apply.
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:25.800
But she wouldn't choose me.
00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:27.420
He kept pestering me.
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.180
Only later did I realize
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:32.530
he had ulterior motives.
00:11:33.910 --> 00:11:34.980
What did he want?
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:36.120
He...
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:39.250
he wanted me.
00:11:40.150 --> 00:11:41.180
Love at first sight?
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:42.980
She wanted to rescue the abducted youths.
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:44.770
Even while gravely poisoned,
00:11:45.270 --> 00:11:47.180
she still tried to protect me out of duty
00:11:47.630 --> 00:11:48.630
as the Sect Leader.
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:49.850
He did help me rescue
00:11:49.870 --> 00:11:51.730
those children trapped in the mine,
00:11:52.670 --> 00:11:54.130
and he risked his life for me
00:11:54.670 --> 00:11:55.980
in the process.
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:57.340
So you fell in love with him too?
00:11:57.360 --> 00:11:58.610
Then why did she come to Jiangzhou?
00:11:58.630 --> 00:11:59.850
Why did you break up?
00:11:59.870 --> 00:12:01.180
And why did you come?
00:12:03.910 --> 00:12:04.910
We were incompatible.
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:06.100
That's it?
00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:08.980
She thought I couldn't give
her the freedom she wanted,
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:10.180
so she left me.
00:12:11.150 --> 00:12:12.580
As for why and how
00:12:12.630 --> 00:12:13.420
she came here,
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:14.610
I have no idea.
00:12:15.870 --> 00:12:17.530
I just wanted to find her.
00:12:18.270 --> 00:12:20.300
I heard someone spotted her in Jiangzhou,
00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:21.720
so I came.
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:25.890
Kumor,
00:12:26.030 --> 00:12:27.340
why aren't you saying anything?
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:30.250
Everything they said matches.
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.100
They met in the martial world.
00:12:33.390 --> 00:12:36.060
One is the leader of Fenglai Pavilion,
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:39.040
and the other is a hall
master chasing after her.
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:41.730
They fought side by side,
saved people with their swords,
00:12:41.750 --> 00:12:42.750
fell in love,
00:12:43.390 --> 00:12:44.390
and later
00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.530
broke up because of differences.
00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:48.420
Then Bai Chifan,
00:12:48.510 --> 00:12:50.820
still in love with Lin Cangcang,
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:52.420
rushed here once he heard
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:53.460
of her whereabouts.
00:12:56.750 --> 00:12:58.180
Are you still suspicious of them?
00:12:59.870 --> 00:13:01.530
It all seems too much of a coincidence.
00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:03.300
But they clearly
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:05.130
had no time to coordinate a story.
00:13:05.550 --> 00:13:07.576
When I provoked the
Jiangzhou garrison earlier today,
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:09.800
Bai Chifan saved the two
of us from the rain of arrows.
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:11.730
When she saw him, Lin Cangcang was startled
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:13.370
and even a bit repulsed.
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:16.010
Her reaction did not look fake.
00:13:16.550 --> 00:13:17.770
I'm sure
00:13:17.790 --> 00:13:20.250
she had no idea Bai
Chifan would turn up here.
00:13:21.750 --> 00:13:22.750
Yes,
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:25.820
everything they said about Southern Chu
00:13:26.550 --> 00:13:28.060
lines up
00:13:28.550 --> 00:13:30.580
and sounds like lived experience,
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:31.890
not something made up.
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:33.480
But neither of them would elaborate
00:13:33.910 --> 00:13:35.646
on what happened after
they left Southern Chu.
00:13:35.670 --> 00:13:37.580
It's perfectly normal not to speak
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.180
of painful things after a breakup.
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:40.360
Besides, Kumor,
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:42.010
didn't you already test them?
00:13:42.270 --> 00:13:45.220
He didn't know she stole the Phoenix Seal
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:47.490
or that she secretly joined the army.
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.006
It makes sense that he
knew nothing about all that
00:13:50.030 --> 00:13:51.300
since they had broken up.
00:13:52.510 --> 00:13:54.890
The fact that their
stories line up so perfectly
00:13:55.870 --> 00:13:57.460
makes me even more uneasy.
00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:58.730
Kumor,
00:13:58.870 --> 00:14:00.340
you're overthinking it.
00:14:00.550 --> 00:14:03.010
The peace delegation
will arrive sooner or later.
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:04.610
You'll know her identity then,
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:05.820
won't you?
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:08.440
Besides,
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.340
from the way Ling Jueding
shot at us without hesitation,
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:13.220
Cangcang is probably not the Empress.
00:14:13.630 --> 00:14:14.420
More importantly,
00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:15.980
the two of them saved me today.
00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:17.800
We can't repay kindness
with cruelty, can we?
00:14:32.510 --> 00:14:34.460
You two saved me today.
00:14:34.600 --> 00:14:35.730
I'm truly grateful.
00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:37.080
Here's a toast to you both.
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:41.720
No need for that, Your Highness.
00:14:41.870 --> 00:14:43.980
I only meant to save Cangcang.
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:45.320
Saving you
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:46.600
was pure coincidence.
00:15:03.150 --> 00:15:05.230
Mr. Bai, you traveled all
this way for your beloved.
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:06.730
How touching.
00:15:06.870 --> 00:15:07.870
General,
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:10.220
I cut ties with this man long ago.
00:15:10.270 --> 00:15:11.370
He has nothing to do with me.
00:15:11.390 --> 00:15:12.390
Cangcang,
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:14.700
even though we're no longer together,
00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:16.300
I can't bear
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:18.530
to watch you treat yourself like this.
00:15:19.150 --> 00:15:20.980
Since we've gone our separate ways,
00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:22.610
what I do has nothing
00:15:22.750 --> 00:15:23.750
to do with you.
00:15:25.550 --> 00:15:26.590
Knowing you were captured,
00:15:26.670 --> 00:15:28.010
of course I was worried.
00:15:30.270 --> 00:15:31.890
You know perfectly well what it is
00:15:32.510 --> 00:15:33.730
you're truly worried about.
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.000
Miss Lin,
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:44.820
what do you think Mr. Bai is worried about?
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:46.490
You should ask him.
00:15:48.630 --> 00:15:49.630
Cangcang,
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:51.490
my feelings for you
00:15:51.790 --> 00:15:52.850
are genuine.
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:04.720
Mr. Bai,
00:16:05.270 --> 00:16:06.460
did you come all this way
00:16:06.870 --> 00:16:08.700
only to take your beloved with you?
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:11.480
Of course.
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:13.730
She may have left me,
00:16:14.790 --> 00:16:15.980
but I still love her.
00:16:17.390 --> 00:16:18.390
Today,
00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:21.340
Minjia went to the Jiangzhou gates
00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:23.100
on a whim.
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:24.980
Bringing Miss Lin along
00:16:25.030 --> 00:16:26.539
was even more spur-of-the-moment.
00:16:26.540 --> 00:16:28.619
So how is it that you
00:16:28.620 --> 00:16:31.010
just happened to be there?
00:16:31.460 --> 00:16:32.850
Were you
00:16:32.910 --> 00:16:35.340
lying in wait near my camp?
00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:37.480
Yes.
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:40.460
You are honest indeed, Mr. Bai.
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:42.890
I knew Cangcang had been taken,
00:16:43.390 --> 00:16:44.790
so I kept watch here day and night.
00:16:45.750 --> 00:16:47.100
I wasn't about to let go
00:16:47.390 --> 00:16:48.650
of even the faintest hope.
00:16:49.150 --> 00:16:50.180
In this bitter cold,
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:51.530
night winds cut like knives.
00:16:51.790 --> 00:16:55.130
Your devotion to her truly runs deep.
00:16:56.550 --> 00:16:57.550
And
00:16:58.120 --> 00:16:59.700
I was rewarded.
00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:01.730
I found and saved her.
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:03.530
What if you hadn't saved her?
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:06.160
Then
00:17:06.830 --> 00:17:08.140
I would've died with her.
00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:16.640
Very well.
00:17:17.640 --> 00:17:20.220
I'll grant that wish
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:22.160
and let you
00:17:22.590 --> 00:17:24.090
share life and death today.
00:17:24.790 --> 00:17:25.790
Guards!
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:26.920
Yes, General!
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:29.050
Take these two away.
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:30.440
Yes, General!
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:49.440
General.
00:17:55.830 --> 00:17:56.830
Miss Lin,
00:17:57.030 --> 00:17:58.030
step outside.
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:00.760
Weren't you going to keep me locked up?
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:01.900
What is this about?
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:03.290
Come and see.
00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:22.330
What is this, General?
00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:26.570
Mr. Bai said earlier
00:18:26.590 --> 00:18:27.900
that he kept watch
00:18:28.030 --> 00:18:30.380
near my camp day and
night just to rescue you.
00:18:31.270 --> 00:18:33.620
Since he's not afraid of
Xijiang's freezing winds,
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:35.180
I'd like to see
00:18:35.510 --> 00:18:37.090
how long he can endure them.
00:18:39.510 --> 00:18:42.010
I was just worrying about
how to shake him off.
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:45.120
Thank you, General, for helping me.
00:18:50.720 --> 00:18:52.730
You two were once in love.
00:18:53.030 --> 00:18:54.810
Miss Lin, don't you care at all?
00:18:55.590 --> 00:18:57.330
I've already chosen to leave him behind,
00:18:57.920 --> 00:18:59.220
so why cling to the past?
00:19:00.110 --> 00:19:01.220
Even so,
00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:04.050
he risked his life to rescue you.
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:06.810
Can you really bear to watch him suffer?
00:19:07.030 --> 00:19:08.030
General,
00:19:08.830 --> 00:19:11.010
I'm your prisoner now.
00:19:11.030 --> 00:19:12.150
I can barely protect myself.
00:19:12.590 --> 00:19:14.140
How could I worry about anyone else?
00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:21.730
If you beg me,
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:24.980
I might let him go.
00:19:31.030 --> 00:19:32.700
If begging really works,
00:19:34.030 --> 00:19:35.530
can I beg you to let me go?
00:19:37.350 --> 00:19:38.490
That's unlikely.
00:19:40.750 --> 00:19:42.530
He and I have nothing
to do with each other.
00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:44.920
You may deal with him as you wish, General.
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:12.400
What a pity.
00:20:13.640 --> 00:20:15.010
Your old flame
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:17.980
doesn't seem to care for you at all.
00:20:19.030 --> 00:20:20.030
It doesn't matter.
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:22.140
I came here of my own will.
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:24.920
I accept whatever punishment comes my way.
00:20:32.310 --> 00:20:33.310
Interesting.
00:20:34.550 --> 00:20:35.620
You two...
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:38.010
One is devoted, while the other
00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:39.620
is indifferent.
00:20:41.070 --> 00:20:42.140
Very well.
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:44.570
Enjoy the cold.
00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:14.240
Minjia.
00:21:14.830 --> 00:21:15.490
Cangcang,
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:16.860
why did you call for me?
00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:18.010
I knew you'd still be awake.
00:21:18.030 --> 00:21:19.030
Sit.
00:21:22.350 --> 00:21:23.330
I saw
00:21:23.350 --> 00:21:24.460
Bai Chifan
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:25.620
tied to the pillar.
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:27.120
He looked like he was about to die.
00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:31.220
I'm telling you your lover is dying.
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:35.180
Do you really not care?
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:37.420
Former lover.
00:21:39.640 --> 00:21:40.980
He's just my former lover.
00:21:41.510 --> 00:21:43.860
Why should I care?
00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:47.140
But he's handsome,
00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:48.250
skilled,
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:49.980
and absolutely devoted to you.
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:51.010
Don't tell me
00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:52.770
you feel nothing at all.
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:54.770
In my opinion,
00:21:54.790 --> 00:21:55.900
life is short.
00:21:56.070 --> 00:21:57.660
Outcomes don't matter.
00:21:57.790 --> 00:21:59.010
Living each day well
00:21:59.030 --> 00:22:00.460
is what truly matters.
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:06.250
Princess Minjia,
00:22:07.000 --> 00:22:08.700
are you feeling sorry for him?
00:22:09.590 --> 00:22:11.140
This isn't pity.
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:13.050
I think he's a good man.
00:22:13.070 --> 00:22:14.250
I like him.
00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:15.980
If you don't want him,
00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:17.180
give him to me.
00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:19.980
I don't care about outcomes anyway.
00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:21.000
Sure.
00:22:21.310 --> 00:22:22.660
You can have him.
00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:24.290
But right now,
00:22:24.310 --> 00:22:26.510
he's probably freezing to
death thanks to your brother.
00:22:26.790 --> 00:22:27.700
Not
00:22:27.750 --> 00:22:29.050
while I'm here.
00:22:36.830 --> 00:22:37.830
Xiao Huan,
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:39.730
this is all I can do for you.
00:22:40.340 --> 00:22:42.740
♪ Falling petals ♪
00:22:43.660 --> 00:22:46.820
♪ Petals drifting through the sky ♪
00:22:49.900 --> 00:22:51.580
♪ Echoes linger ♪
00:22:52.980 --> 00:22:57.220
♪ In the empty alleys at dawn ♪
00:22:59.380 --> 00:23:03.100
♪ You used to gaze into my eyes ♪
00:23:04.220 --> 00:23:08.100
♪ That watchful waiting
once warmed a whole city ♪
00:23:09.140 --> 00:23:12.220
♪ In the embers, a few
strands of warmth still remain ♪
00:23:12.700 --> 00:23:15.860
♪ The sky has faded to dusk ♪
00:23:20.110 --> 00:23:21.180
What are you looking at?
00:23:23.750 --> 00:23:24.750
The stars.
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:26.330
They are especially
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:27.720
bright here.
00:23:28.550 --> 00:23:30.700
Haven't you seen stars before?
00:23:31.750 --> 00:23:32.980
It's been two years
00:23:34.510 --> 00:23:35.660
since I
00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:38.140
last looked up properly.
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:40.220
You're unbelievable.
00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:41.730
In a situation like this,
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:43.530
you still care about stargazing?
00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:47.010
At least we're under the same sky now.
00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:49.290
That's a kind of bond, isn't it?
00:24:01.830 --> 00:24:03.180
Just sharing
00:24:04.590 --> 00:24:06.380
the same sky is enough for you?
00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:11.290
Being able to see her again at all
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:13.250
is already a rare blessing.
00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:15.570
I doubt I can hope for anything more.
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:20.180
You're easy to satisfy.
00:24:22.070 --> 00:24:23.070
Too bad
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:25.046
she said she didn't care for you anymore.
00:24:25.070 --> 00:24:26.420
She's giving you to me.
00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:29.620
Your Highness must be joking.
00:24:30.510 --> 00:24:31.980
A princess like you
00:24:32.350 --> 00:24:33.350
will find a fine match.
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:36.330
You really are devoted.
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:38.570
Let me warn you,
00:24:38.590 --> 00:24:41.050
the night winds here can
freeze cattle and sheep to death.
00:24:42.270 --> 00:24:43.660
Aren't you afraid of the cold?
00:24:46.890 --> 00:24:47.890
No,
00:24:48.270 --> 00:24:49.270
I'm used to it.
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:54.160
Here, Mr. Bai,
00:24:55.070 --> 00:24:56.530
take this cloak.
00:25:01.310 --> 00:25:02.700
Make it through the night.
00:25:17.510 --> 00:25:18.090
Kumor,
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:19.220
I tested
00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:20.980
both of them as you said.
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:22.280
I don't think they're faking it.
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:27.400
Minjia,
00:25:28.070 --> 00:25:29.810
you grew up on the steppe.
00:25:30.310 --> 00:25:32.456
You don't know how cunning
the Central Plains people can be.
00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:33.480
But Kumor,
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:36.180
Bai Chifan saved my life.
00:25:36.480 --> 00:25:37.770
If you let him freeze to death,
00:25:38.640 --> 00:25:40.250
that wouldn't be right.
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:43.920
Minjia,
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:46.600
don't tell me you've taken a liking to him.
00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:48.330
Of course not.
00:25:48.510 --> 00:25:49.980
Why would I fall for someone
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:51.460
whose heart belongs to another?
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:56.050
I'm just touched by his devotion.
00:25:59.350 --> 00:26:00.350
Don't worry.
00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:01.860
He won't die yet.
00:26:02.270 --> 00:26:04.420
We'll decide his fate
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:05.520
after the delegation comes.
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:09.010
Is the hot water ready?
00:26:09.030 --> 00:26:09.770
Yes, Your Highness.
00:26:09.790 --> 00:26:10.980
The braziers are lit too.
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:12.160
Mr. Bai,
00:26:12.350 --> 00:26:13.660
I've prepared a tent for you.
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:15.330
Take a hot bath once you get there.
00:26:15.350 --> 00:26:16.180
I added herbs
00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:17.200
to help you warm up.
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:19.160
Thank you, Your Highness.
00:26:19.550 --> 00:26:20.010
Come on,
00:26:20.030 --> 00:26:21.030
let's head back.
00:26:28.030 --> 00:26:29.180
Didn't expect that.
00:26:29.350 --> 00:26:31.656
You braved the northern wind
all night and are still standing.
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:33.140
It seems I underestimated you.
00:26:33.270 --> 00:26:35.090
I've roamed the martial world for years.
00:26:35.550 --> 00:26:37.220
A bit of cold wind
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:38.720
is nothing.
00:26:39.350 --> 00:26:40.420
In that case,
00:26:40.830 --> 00:26:42.490
stay out for a few more nights.
00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:43.720
Kumor,
00:26:43.830 --> 00:26:45.530
I'm indebted to Mr. Bai.
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:47.220
I won't let you treat him like this.
00:26:47.350 --> 00:26:48.050
Mr. Bai,
00:26:48.070 --> 00:26:49.070
let's go.
00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:14.440
Is she
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:16.090
really not the Empress?
00:27:17.070 --> 00:27:17.570
General,
00:27:17.790 --> 00:27:19.180
the delegation from
Great Qi is at the gate.
00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:19.810
Very well.
00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:21.180
Let them in.
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:22.200
Yes, General.
00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:17.090
Cangcang.
00:28:17.110 --> 00:28:18.110
Minjia?
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:19.880
The delegation from Great Qi is here.
00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:21.486
- They're here? - Let's go.
00:28:21.510 --> 00:28:22.510
Kumor's waiting for us.
00:28:22.930 --> 00:28:23.930
Come on.
00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:52.770
Du Tingxin, envoy of Great Qi,
00:28:53.550 --> 00:28:55.220
greets General Kumor.
00:28:58.550 --> 00:28:59.730
By order of His Majesty,
00:29:00.350 --> 00:29:02.090
I've come to negotiate peace.
00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:07.290
Looks like I hold quite a place in the eyes
00:29:07.380 --> 00:29:08.700
of the Emperor of Great Qi.
00:29:09.590 --> 00:29:11.390
He actually sent the
Imperial Preceptor here.
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:12.920
This shows
00:29:13.550 --> 00:29:15.140
His Majesty's sincerity.
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:16.240
Very well.
00:29:16.880 --> 00:29:19.140
Then let me show your emperor
00:29:19.310 --> 00:29:20.700
my sincerity as well.
00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:22.720
Bring her up!
00:29:46.110 --> 00:29:47.110
General.
00:29:49.830 --> 00:29:50.830
Preceptor Du,
00:29:51.590 --> 00:29:53.730
aren't you going to kneel
before your empress?
00:29:53.830 --> 00:29:54.830
The Empress?
00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:57.220
Where?
00:30:02.100 --> 00:30:03.810
Didn't the Emperor of Great Qi
00:30:04.230 --> 00:30:05.990
receive my letter?
00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:08.490
Calm down, General.
00:30:09.200 --> 00:30:11.770
I came precisely to address this matter.
00:30:16.440 --> 00:30:18.330
This is a handwritten
letter from His Majesty.
00:30:19.110 --> 00:30:21.250
Please see for yourself.
00:30:40.380 --> 00:30:41.499
[The Phoenix Seal of Great
Qi recently went missing.]
00:30:41.500 --> 00:30:42.899
[I heard it was found by General
Kumor, so I sent a delegation]
00:30:42.900 --> 00:30:45.820
[to retrieve the stolen seal, reclaim
the captives, and negotiate peace.]
00:30:51.750 --> 00:30:54.090
The Empress of Great
Qi is still in the palace?
00:30:54.510 --> 00:30:55.510
Yes.
00:30:56.030 --> 00:30:57.940
Her Majesty is safe and sound.
00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:00.570
His Majesty sent this delegation
00:31:00.880 --> 00:31:02.290
to retrieve the stolen Phoenix Seal,
00:31:02.310 --> 00:31:03.570
reclaim the captives,
00:31:03.590 --> 00:31:05.250
and negotiate terms
00:31:06.110 --> 00:31:07.620
for peace.
00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:10.160
Preceptor Du,
00:31:10.830 --> 00:31:12.010
do you know this woman?
00:31:21.590 --> 00:31:23.090
This is the thief?
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:27.490
How dare you steal the Phoenix Seal?
00:31:27.550 --> 00:31:28.630
Your crime is unforgivable!
00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:29.960
Guards,
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:31.940
take her back to Jiangzhou for punishment!
00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:32.960
- Wait. - Understood.
00:31:36.550 --> 00:31:37.810
No need for all that trouble.
00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:43.140
According to custom in Xijiang,
00:31:43.790 --> 00:31:46.620
a thief's right hand is
chopped off in public
00:31:46.830 --> 00:31:48.860
and thrown in the
wilderness to feed the wolves.
00:31:50.400 --> 00:31:51.400
In that case,
00:31:52.030 --> 00:31:53.620
let's follow local custom.
00:31:59.590 --> 00:32:01.220
Do you have anything to say?
00:32:03.830 --> 00:32:04.830
General,
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:06.620
to the Imperial Preceptor,
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:09.900
I am indeed a thief who
stole the Phoenix Seal.
00:32:10.510 --> 00:32:11.510
I have nothing to say.
00:32:25.110 --> 00:32:27.250
Please do the honors, Preceptor Du.
00:32:29.400 --> 00:32:31.090
Then please have your men
00:32:31.550 --> 00:32:33.770
hold the thief down.
00:32:52.790 --> 00:32:54.670
Preceptor Du, your inner
force may be mediocre,
00:32:54.830 --> 00:32:57.700
but your resolve to chop
off her hand is admirable.
00:32:58.310 --> 00:32:59.310
What is it?
00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:02.180
Have you changed your
mind about punishing her?
00:33:03.750 --> 00:33:05.860
Since she is not the Empress of Great Qi,
00:33:06.550 --> 00:33:09.290
her matter can wait.
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:12.090
Let us discuss real business.
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:15.490
Since you were sent by
the Emperor of Great Qi,
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:18.000
you must have brought
some token of sincerity.
00:33:22.750 --> 00:33:23.750
Bring it up!
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:47.000
What is this?
00:33:47.030 --> 00:33:48.150
Do you think you can
00:33:49.350 --> 00:33:51.090
buy me off with a bit of money?
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:54.010
This is 3,128 liang and nine qian of gold.
00:33:54.400 --> 00:33:55.900
It is not "a bit of money."
00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:01.570
This is the money people in
Xijiang paid to purchase proper status
00:34:02.270 --> 00:34:04.790
after the status verification
system was implemented last year.
00:34:04.920 --> 00:34:07.220
I had the Ministry of
Revenue convert it into gold
00:34:07.830 --> 00:34:09.210
and brought it here to you.
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:11.570
I didn't go through all this trouble
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:14.010
for a bit of gold.
00:34:15.150 --> 00:34:17.150
Since the status verification
system was enforced,
00:34:17.510 --> 00:34:19.750
those without proper status
have been reduced to slaves.
00:34:20.190 --> 00:34:22.740
Ordinary folk have had no
choice but to purchase good status.
00:34:23.630 --> 00:34:25.550
How is this any different
from daylight robbery?
00:34:27.320 --> 00:34:28.900
If the system is not abolished,
00:34:29.630 --> 00:34:31.130
this gold you brought
00:34:31.630 --> 00:34:33.610
will be nothing but a drop in the ocean.
00:34:33.840 --> 00:34:34.840
General, mind your words.
00:34:36.230 --> 00:34:38.270
The status verification
system is a national policy
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:40.820
established to maintain order.
00:34:41.550 --> 00:34:43.300
How can it be abolished so easily?
00:34:43.340 --> 00:34:44.880
You are mistaken, Preceptor Du.
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:47.480
Only when all people are free and equal
00:34:47.880 --> 00:34:49.460
can the land be at peace.
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:51.740
As I see it,
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:52.610
the status verification system
00:34:52.630 --> 00:34:55.050
is the very cause of chaos in the land.
00:34:55.510 --> 00:34:56.530
I am merely carrying out orders
00:34:56.550 --> 00:34:58.780
to deliver this gold to you, General.
00:34:58.960 --> 00:35:00.340
Matters regarding the system
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:04.130
are not for me to decide.
00:35:07.070 --> 00:35:10.090
I've heard you're the Emperor
of Great Qi's trusted aide.
00:35:10.760 --> 00:35:11.900
Seeing you today,
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:13.980
I can't imagine why.
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:18.010
I will report your thoughts
00:35:18.550 --> 00:35:20.530
to His Majesty.
00:35:22.360 --> 00:35:23.360
Good.
00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:25.260
Please do.
00:35:26.230 --> 00:35:28.110
When you decide to abolish
00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:29.900
the status verification system,
00:35:30.830 --> 00:35:32.090
I will consider
00:35:32.370 --> 00:35:33.480
when to withdraw my troops.
00:35:35.010 --> 00:35:36.610
General, are you truly turning down
00:35:37.950 --> 00:35:40.050
3,000 liang of gold?
00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:42.380
Did I say I was?
00:35:43.200 --> 00:35:44.900
Aren't the Phoenix Seal and the captives
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:47.340
worth 3,000 liang of gold?
00:35:47.630 --> 00:35:49.410
General, how bold you are.
00:35:55.030 --> 00:35:55.530
Very well.
00:35:56.030 --> 00:35:57.180
In that case,
00:35:57.510 --> 00:35:59.490
the gold is yours.
00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:01.700
As for the captives, the
Phoenix Seal, and her,
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:03.130
I'm taking them all.
00:36:03.150 --> 00:36:05.780
Preceptor Du, you are
being a bit too greedy.
00:36:06.200 --> 00:36:07.660
You may take the captives.
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:09.080
As for the Phoenix Seal and her,
00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:10.860
you may choose only one.
00:36:17.430 --> 00:36:18.700
Then please, chop off her hand
00:36:18.720 --> 00:36:20.300
and feed it to the wolves for me.
00:36:41.950 --> 00:36:43.230
As for the Phoenix Seal and her,
00:36:43.510 --> 00:36:45.090
you may choose only one.
00:36:46.990 --> 00:36:48.300
Then please, chop off her hand
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:49.970
and feed it to the wolves for me.
00:36:53.070 --> 00:36:54.870
The Preceptor never
intended to take me away.
00:36:55.760 --> 00:36:57.410
Was she acting on his orders?
00:36:58.950 --> 00:36:59.950
No matter.
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:02.610
I am no longer the Empress of Great Qi.
00:37:03.280 --> 00:37:05.050
Why should I care what he wants?
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:08.860
If the Preceptor can at least tell Jueding
00:37:08.880 --> 00:37:09.880
that I'm safe,
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:12.260
it will put his mind at ease.
00:37:13.480 --> 00:37:14.940
If I can use this opportunity
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:17.010
to learn the Black Tiger Army's defenses...
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:21.480
What are you thinking?
00:37:21.550 --> 00:37:22.550
Nothing.
00:37:23.190 --> 00:37:24.190
Are you sad?
00:37:25.070 --> 00:37:26.070
Of course.
00:37:27.030 --> 00:37:28.530
All the captives have left.
00:37:28.630 --> 00:37:29.900
I'm the only one left behind.
00:37:39.710 --> 00:37:41.260
General, you don't still think
00:37:41.280 --> 00:37:42.720
I'm the Empress of Great Qi, do you?
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:46.280
To be honest,
00:37:47.480 --> 00:37:49.210
I still have a tiny bit of doubt.
00:37:50.760 --> 00:37:52.130
But right now,
00:37:52.150 --> 00:37:53.380
I see no reason
00:37:54.190 --> 00:37:55.610
to believe you are.
00:37:56.190 --> 00:37:58.260
Then what do you plan to do with me?
00:37:59.920 --> 00:38:00.920
I intend
00:38:01.150 --> 00:38:02.860
to treat you two
00:38:03.140 --> 00:38:04.210
as honored guests.
00:38:04.590 --> 00:38:05.900
When the war ends,
00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:07.940
I will see you both off myself.
00:38:09.190 --> 00:38:10.860
This is how you treat honored guests?
00:38:11.150 --> 00:38:13.110
You're practically putting
me under house arrest.
00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:14.960
Inside the camp,
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:17.040
you two are free to go wherever you like.
00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:19.460
But if either of you steps outside,
00:38:20.230 --> 00:38:21.860
don't blame me for being ruthless.
00:38:28.590 --> 00:38:29.590
All right.
00:38:29.960 --> 00:38:31.610
Since you're so "hospitable,"
00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:33.690
I suppose
00:38:34.320 --> 00:38:35.320
I'll stay.
00:38:36.710 --> 00:38:38.390
But there is one thing I don't understand.
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:40.260
Now that you know I'm not the Empress,
00:38:40.480 --> 00:38:41.300
why
00:38:41.400 --> 00:38:42.860
haven't you killed me?
00:38:46.440 --> 00:38:47.780
I can't bear to.
00:38:53.480 --> 00:38:54.480
I just think
00:38:55.070 --> 00:38:56.490
that you are a woman of honor.
00:38:56.880 --> 00:38:58.480
You stole provisions to save the people.
00:38:58.920 --> 00:39:01.170
I admire that.
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:04.760
Rest assured.
00:39:05.070 --> 00:39:06.170
Since I said
00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:07.980
I'd treat you as honored guests,
00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:09.740
I'll keep my word.
00:39:11.630 --> 00:39:12.630
Good.
00:39:26.800 --> 00:39:27.420
Your Highness.
00:39:27.800 --> 00:39:28.690
Mr. Bai,
00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:29.800
are you better now?
00:39:31.230 --> 00:39:32.820
Thank you for the cloak.
00:39:39.230 --> 00:39:40.230
Cangcang?
00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:44.740
She should have left with the delegation.
00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:46.610
Why is she still here?
00:39:53.230 --> 00:39:54.380
Yes, that's Cangcang.
00:39:54.440 --> 00:39:55.440
What's wrong?
00:39:56.840 --> 00:39:57.840
Nothing.
00:39:59.320 --> 00:39:59.820
Did
00:39:59.840 --> 00:40:01.610
the delegation from Great Qi come today?
00:40:01.630 --> 00:40:02.340
They did.
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:03.360
And they've already left.
00:40:04.190 --> 00:40:05.610
Can you believe my brother?
00:40:05.960 --> 00:40:06.740
Earlier,
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:09.340
he suspected that Lin
Cangcang was the Empress
00:40:09.840 --> 00:40:11.360
and even had me follow the two of you.
00:40:11.510 --> 00:40:12.510
Only when the delegation
00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:14.170
confirmed her identity today
00:40:14.190 --> 00:40:15.260
did he finally relax.
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:17.000
If you ask me,
00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:18.860
the whole thing is simple.
00:40:19.320 --> 00:40:21.210
If Cangcang were the Empress,
00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:23.130
wouldn't that
00:40:23.630 --> 00:40:25.090
make you the Emperor?
00:40:26.710 --> 00:40:27.710
Exactly.
00:40:33.100 --> 00:40:35.420
[Qi]
00:40:39.190 --> 00:40:40.190
General.
00:40:42.110 --> 00:40:42.900
Greetings,
00:40:43.030 --> 00:40:44.030
Preceptor Du.
00:40:48.400 --> 00:40:49.400
General Ling,
00:40:49.550 --> 00:40:50.610
no need to look around.
00:40:51.190 --> 00:40:52.190
Her Majesty
00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:54.490
is not with us.
00:40:54.510 --> 00:40:55.510
Why not?
00:40:57.230 --> 00:40:58.900
Kumor made me choose
between the 300 captives
00:40:58.920 --> 00:41:00.530
and Her Majesty,
00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:05.090
but she would rather die
than admit who she was.
00:41:06.440 --> 00:41:08.530
I had no choice but to respect her wishes,
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:11.000
so I only retrieved the stolen Phoenix Seal
00:41:11.400 --> 00:41:13.210
and brought back the captives.
00:41:13.550 --> 00:41:14.690
Then what about my sister?
00:41:15.070 --> 00:41:16.690
Her Majesty put the greater good first.
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:19.210
Heaven will watch over her.
00:41:23.280 --> 00:41:24.280
I will also
00:41:25.030 --> 00:41:26.860
pray for her safety day and night.
00:41:35.630 --> 00:41:36.630
Cangcang.
00:41:37.960 --> 00:41:38.960
Minjia?
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:41.340
Why are you staying
in your tent all the time?
00:41:41.360 --> 00:41:42.400
Why not go out for a walk?
00:41:43.550 --> 00:41:44.550
What's the point?
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:45.960
I can't leave the camp anyway.
00:41:46.630 --> 00:41:47.630
What,
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:49.240
do you know somewhere worth going?
00:41:49.760 --> 00:41:51.090
I wish.
00:41:51.550 --> 00:41:53.256
I still have to clean the
stables this afternoon.
00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:54.380
Clean the stables?
00:41:55.510 --> 00:41:57.610
A princess like you
cleans the stables yourself?
00:41:57.630 --> 00:41:58.630
Of course.
00:41:58.710 --> 00:41:59.740
As my brother says,
00:41:59.960 --> 00:42:01.340
there are no princesses in the camp,
00:42:01.360 --> 00:42:02.420
only soldiers.
00:42:03.000 --> 00:42:04.130
If I want to stay here,
00:42:04.230 --> 00:42:06.260
I have to work like everyone else.
00:42:07.140 --> 00:42:08.180
Anyway, enough about that.
00:42:08.630 --> 00:42:09.630
I snuck out
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:11.210
to chat with you.
00:42:12.030 --> 00:42:13.030
About what?
00:42:14.070 --> 00:42:15.340
If it's about Bai Chifan,
00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:16.800
forget it.
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:19.520
That's exactly what I want to talk about.
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:22.490
Why did you break up with him?
00:42:23.070 --> 00:42:24.690
He clearly cares for you deeply.
00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:30.260
I used to think so too.
00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:32.400
Only later did I realize
00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:35.010
he had ulterior motives.
00:42:36.150 --> 00:42:37.740
Mr. Bai is not that kind of man.
00:42:38.030 --> 00:42:39.610
He risked his life to save you.
00:42:40.230 --> 00:42:41.230
Enough.
00:42:42.150 --> 00:42:43.390
I don't want to talk about him.
00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:54.440
I bet
00:42:54.590 --> 00:42:55.900
you still have feelings for him.
00:42:56.760 --> 00:42:58.050
If you truly didn't care,
00:42:58.230 --> 00:42:59.610
you wouldn't sound so bitter.
00:43:00.230 --> 00:43:02.210
You say you've moved on,
00:43:02.550 --> 00:43:04.780
but you still hold grudges.
00:43:05.630 --> 00:43:06.630
If you ask me,
00:43:07.150 --> 00:43:08.610
your anger
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:09.920
comes from love.
00:43:16.920 --> 00:43:17.920
Really?
00:43:22.840 --> 00:43:24.050
