The Legend of Fragrance

Episode 23

So, Le Yan,

go.

Since you don't have the heart to kill me,

then I'll take my leave.

I just hope Mister, you and Doctor An

can put down your grievances and let it all be.

Yi Chen.

Hey!

Stinky girl.

Where did you go? I was looking for you.

Are you okay? Let me see.

What's wrong?

Have you ever experienced what it's like to be used and lied to?

I have.

It's like someone used a knife to cut open your chest.

And then put a piece of ice in there.

I have that feeling now.

You know. Yesterday, I found out

An Yi Chen and that Wanderer have a not so normal relationship.

During the Sacrifice Offering Ceremony when Pei Shan was mistaken by the Enchantress as the devil's wife,

and the letter that was sent to the Wen mansion to create more tension between the Wen and Ning family. It's all their doing.

Stinky girl, why aren't you surprised hearing this news?

Could it be that you already knew?

Sorry.

I really didn't know how to say it.

Although Brother An lied to me,

I don't want to betray him.

Stinky girl, if you don't want to tell me then it's fine. I won't pressure you to tell me anything.

Zhi Yuan...

I've only realized right now that you're the one who's really important in my heart.

You understand me so well and care about me so much.

And you bear so much.

But you don't require or wish anything of me.

Who said I don't have any wishes?

I want plenty. I want you to give me your heart.

I'm so stupid. I trusted An Yi Chen so much.

I used to believe everything he said.

That's not your fault. Even I was tricked by him.

Is the way they're treating my Ning family really because they want to investigate this case?

He is definitely the police commissioner.

He suspects that the person who is pretending to be the fake devil and is kidnapping young women is your dad.

Based on what? What evidence does he have to suspect that my dad is the devil?

You forgot? On your family's fragrance book, it clearly gives instructions on how to remove essence from a person's body.

And those missing girls were not killed or sold to human trafficking.

So the biggest possibility is that they were kidnapped in order to make fragrances.

Not possible. My dad cannot possible be the devil.

Do you remember when we met the devil the last two times?

The first time was on the cliff. That time, my dad was already unconcious.

so it couldn't be him.

The second time was at the Peach Blossom Garden. That devil was very young, so he also couldn't have been my dad.

Also, they only cared about kidnapping you. They couldn't care less whether I died or not.

- How could that have been planned by my dad? - Zhi Yuan, calm down first.

I perfectly understand your feelings. I also believe those two devils that we met were not your dad.

They were also not your dad's subordinates.

But Brother An said that, based evidence he collected,

there are two groups of people who are using the devil legend to kidnap young woman.

And one of these devils is your father.

You also believe that. Why?

Do you remember when Chun Miao was kidnapped and I investigated that carriage?

I smelled Chun Miao's scent, the doll's scent, as well as the scent of two men.

So this case is definitely not the legend of the devil looking for brides.

Someone is pretending to be the devil and scaring everyone.

- I remember. - Then do you trust in my sense of smell?

Of course I do.

Then do you remember that day when I went with you to the Fragrance House?

Then all of a sudden, I started ignoring you?

I remember. That day, you suddenly changed all of a sudden.

Hey! What you're saying is, you were able to smell the two men's scent in the carriage, on those two servants?

Stop making trouble! Why are you making trouble?

Look clearly. This is the Ning mansion!

You have nothing to fear, have you?

Give me back my husband, my husband!

Neighbors, if they do not return our family, we will go in there and search for them!

Search! Give them back! What are you guys doing? Don't be so rash!

Move back! You're not allowed to break in!

Young Master...

- What happened? - Young Master, these two women's husbands have missing from our Fragrance House for three days.

At first, we thought maybe they were hired by another Fragrance House and went elsewhere to work.

I never thought they would come here to ask for their husbands back. What type of situation is this?

Young Master Ning, my husband has always worked at your Fragrance House.

But as of now, he has not come home for three days already.

What happened to him? Where did he go?

- Yeah! - Me too!

Young Master Ning, you have to give us an explanation!

Don't create anymore commotion!

- What are your husbands' names? - My husband's name is Ah Fa.

My husband's name is Ah Cai. Young Master Ning, give us an explanation!

Or else how are my son and I going to live?

Ah Fa and Ah Cai's disappearance probably has something to do with Doctor An.

Since Yi Chen is the commissioner,

he has to have a police badge in order to arrest someone in clear daylight.

Why does he have to do it secretly?

Because Brother An told me that my sense of smell alone is not sufficient evidence to arrest those two people.

So I'm thinking that maybe he secretly arrested those two people.

And then forced them to tell the truth.

But that's against the law.

Stinky girl, I have a feeling.

I think Yi Chen's goal isn't to solve this case.

It seems like he has something against my family and wants my family gone.

Zhi Yuan, then do you want to go ask your dad?

See if he has any enemies out there.

Especially between him and his teacher's younger disciple An Qiu Sheng.

Stinky girl, tell me the truth.

Is your teacher An Qiu Sheng?

And Yi Chen is his son.

I had promised them that I would keep this secret forever.

That I would never tell it to anyone.

But since it has come to this, I can't hide it from you any longer.

So, only by finding out what really happened between your dad and his sworn brother,

can we solve this mystery.

Dad, is it comfortable?

Ah, it's comfortable.

Right here, right here.

Oh right, Zhi Yuan. Doctor An has been treating your sickness for quite a while already.

Is your nose showing any improvements whatsoever?

Huh? Uh... my nose...

Um, not yet.

But don't worry dad. Le Yan is teaching me how to make perfume at the moment.

Just wait. On the celebration of your big 50th birthday, I will definitely give you a big surprise.

What? You and Le Yan...?

Dad, I've already told you. That stinky girl actually loves me deep in her heart.

You little thing, you've actually managed to win over Le Yan.

Of course. Dad, your son has potential.

Le Yan is not only teaching me how to make perfume, she is also making a new species of rose.

- A new species of rose?- Correct. Not only is this species more fragrant,

we can extract more and better essence from this species. .

Oh? Then that's really great.

With Le Yan's help, even if you don't have a sense of smell, you can still continue our family business.

Zhi Yuan, I'm telling you. You have to get along well with Le Yan.

After you marry her into our family, I'll give her the second half of the fragrance book.

Zhi Yuan, I really envy you.

In the game of love, you're a lot luckier than your dad.

Dad, don't be so modest. Didn't you marry my mom?

I've already told you. Don't speak of your mother in front of me.

Dad, you're not this sensitive, are you?

Mom's been gone for so many years. You still haven't gotten over her?

You won't understand the things that happened in my generation.

If you don't say it of course I won't understand.

Erh... Father, earlier you said, the Stinky Brat's teacher is your younger brother An Qiu Sheng

and he wants to hurt you. Exactly what's going on between you and uncle An Qiu Sheng?

Did Le Yan make you ask me?

Correct. Although Stinky Brat doesn't admit it,

I know the teacher is your younger brother An Qiu Sheng

and An Yi Chen is An Qiu Sheng's son.

He is also a police officer.

They are investigating the case of the devil taking brides. They suspect...

They suspect you being that Devil.

Father, what's the matter?

An Yi Chen's suspicions are not correct, are they?

As if. As if your Dad is the Devil. What evidence do they have?

They said the 18 missing girls were kidnapped by a crazy perfumer. The goal is for blending fragrances.

Also the formula of blending fragrances in Father's recipe

also makes use of the human body.

Pft... and this is supposed to be proof? Father and son An also have a secret recipe that uses the human body

but they may very well be Mo Wang (Devil), who only pretended to be investigating the case, like 'thieves calling thieves'

That also makes sense.

Father, what kind of problems do you and Uncle An have? What does he has against you?

I didn't wrong him, he wronged me.

He didn't take the engagement between your mother and me seriously since he was little.

Instead he had other purposes for your mother.

When the teacher found out he was subsequently forced out of the institute and then I got married to your mother.

And then?

Then... And then your mother got seriously ill and left you and your sister behind.

Because of this he surely hates me, he thinks I harmed your mother, so he wants to take revenge on me.

If that's so, the problem between Father and Uncle An shouldn't be that serious.

I've told you this before. Uncle An isn't thinking.

Correct

Erh... Father, you're not lying to me, are you?

Zhi Yuan, don't you believe your own Father?

I believe, I definitely believe.

Father... I was so afraid you were the Devil. I was so afraid you would hurt others.

But it doesn't matter now. I am certain Father is not the Devil. And as your son, of course I will be on your side.

Drink it quickly

Mr. Yi Chen. Mr. Yi Chen

Mr. Yi Chen

Mr. Yi Chen

Mr. Yi Chen

You came...

I am sorry...

Mr. Yi Chen. I will light a tranquilizing fragrance for you

You will sleep well, tomorrow morning all will be well.

- Don't leave, don't leave. - I'm not, I am not leaving.

Forever I will not leave you. Forever I will accompany you.

Le Yan. I love you...

But who you love is Ning Zhi Yuan, even though you seem to hate him,

I've always realized that you two love each other. Funny isn't it?

The funniest thing is, despite knowing that,

I deliberately kept you apart, I am sorry, I am such a b*st*rd.

I am sorry, I am sorry

I shouldn't have hurt you. I should not have used you too but I didn't have a choice either.

I'm the last in my family and I have a responsibility.

Revenge is my responsibility.

You couldn't possibly understand, how it has hurt my heart.

Don't leave me.

I know. All the pain, I do understand.

- Don't leave me. - Because we are the same people.

We are people who suffer the same pain.

We are people who carry the same disease.

Le Yan, don't you leave me...

I will not leave you, Mr. Yi Chen

I will never leave you, I will never leave you

Le Yan, don't you leave me.

Mr. Yi Chen, let's lay down

- Don't leave. - Do not cry, don't cry anymore, I won't leave.

I won't ever leave you.

Don't leave.

- Don't cry. - Don't leave.

I will not leave...

.

Mr. Yi Chen

I'm sorry.

I never thought I would use another woman's identity

to steal your love.

But I really do love you.

The An Family Grave

Sworn Brother, long time no see.

How did you know I came back?

Because I can sense your existence.

An Yi Chen is your son?

Since when have you had such an big(in age) son?

He's an orphan I adopted.

I see you taught him well.

You even sent him to Japan to study.

And he's become our police station's commissioner.

You should know why I've lived like a dog all these years!

I know.

For the last twelve years, I've been waiting for this day.

Where did you hide Xue Yin?

I wanted to secretly take away Xue Yin's body.

But I when I opened the coffin, I realized this was an empty grave!

Return her to me!

You will never see her again!!

You will never find her. When Xue Yin was alive, she belonged to me.

Even after she died, she still belongs to me!

Shut up!!

Subtitles by The Aromatic Team @Viki

Why did you let go?

Because I cannot let you die like this.

I want to see you destroyed. With nothing to your name and broken family!

You will never be able to do it.

I won't kill you either. After Xue Yin left,

neither of us deserve to go accompany her (in the afterlife). We only deserve to continue painfully living the way we have been!

We'll see.

Backgarden

Although I will never have your heart,

at least I was able to get your body.

I am very satisfied already.

I...

I only have one thing to ask you.

In your heart, are cherry blossoms (Japanese beauty) not as pretty as peach blossoms (Chinese beauty)?

No.

I'm the one not worthy.

I'm a lowlife, I'm a bastard.

No, you're wrong.

The type of person you're not worthy of is someone pure and innocent like Le Yan.

You're the same type of person I am. We're the most compatible.

Le Yan sis, you're so early.

Hui Zi sis, where did you go last night?

I wanted to go find you because I created a new perfume and wanted you to try it out with me.

Oh, really?

Last night... I was with Mr. Yi Chen.

From now on, we're each other's people (dating).

Why are you following me?

Are you going home to see your mom?

It's none of your business

Are your mom's headaches any better? I want to check up on her.

Thank you for your consideration. I've already found a new doctor for my mom.

Who are you people?

Go!

Quickly! Go!

Should I believe him?

Go! Go!

Ah!

Go!

Mr. An, I can't believe you're the master actor.

Le Yan, I...

You don't have to explain anymore. I don't have the time to see you continue acting.

What do you really want?

Le Yan, I know you won't trust me anymore.

But I cannot let you go alone. If something happens to you, I would not be able to forgive myself.

So no matter how much you hate me and how you look at me,

I will safety return you to your home today.

Stinky girl!

Stinky girl, if you wanted to go home to see your mom, you should have told me. I'll go with you.

I didn't want to interrupt your fragrance class.

Yi Chen bro, how did you get injured?

It's fine, just a small scratch.

Were you guys ambushed again? Stinky girl, let me see. Did you get injured?

With Brother An's protection, of course I'm fine.

Yi Chen bro, you're always saying I'm scheming to appear heroic.

But I believe you're definitely not acting this time.

You saved my future wife, I'm really thankful towards you.

Brother An, did you say you'd worry if I went home by myself?

Now Zhi Yuan is here, you don't have to worry anymore.

Did you arrest Ah Fa and Ah Cai?

Correct.

Did they tell you who the devil was?

These are police secrets, I cannot tell you.

Fine, I won't pressure you.

But I have to tell you something. Although I cannot prevent you from your investigation, please follow the law.

Don't chase after revenge. Or else we'll no longer be sworn brothers, I'll cut off all ties with you.

So you suspect those masked people were sent by Yi Chen bro?

Correct. I can smell the scent on their bodies.

And these people just happen to be the same people who attacked us on the Peach Blossom Mountain.

No way. Those people couldn't have been sent by An Yi Chen.

It could be people that he sent. I think your dad's right.

Anyone who knows that the fragrance book has information on how to use body scent to make essence could be the devil.

So whether it's your dad, my teacher or Brother An, anyone could be the villain.

My dad said he wasn't the devil.

Of course I also hope your dad isn't the devil. But I hope even more that Brother An and my teacher aren't the devil.

Or else it'll be too scary.

Don't be scared. I believe my dad isn't the devil.

Your teacher and An Yi Chen can't be the devil either.

Although my dad and your teacher has a bad past, I believe they won't do something as horrible as kidnapping young women.

Give me a little time. I'll slowly dissolve their hatred for each other.

Let's work hard together.
