[Episode 28]

[Zhenhua No. 1 Aviation School]

You mean

it was Murong Jinrui

who had her men damage Ren Susu's hearing?

Yes.

After you asked me to investigate,

I traced it back to 7 years ago.

None of us expected

that Miss Jinrui actually had

her own underground forces.

According to the staff at Lanxin Theater,

Miss Ren still suffers from frequent headaches and ringing in her ears,

and she just has to tough it out.

Ren Susu,

once again, you kept it from me.

I think you should know

the reason

behind the attack on Miss Ren.

Where are you taking me?

Seven years ago,

it was right here

that I was knocked unconscious with a club.

When I woke up,

I was already in the hospital.

Not even Laiyi could find out

who attacked me.

But at that time,

the war was imminent,

and I was busy leading the school's staff and students

to join the army,

so I put the matter aside.

Thinking back on it now,

it was you who followed me all the way

and saved me when Murong Jinrui

attacked me.

So you knew nothing at all.

The person I meant to hit was you!

You were the reason Mother was so angry she ended up in the hospital!

That bitch Fang Mulan

insisted on protecting you.

She brought it on herself! What's that got to do with me?

Stop!

If it weren't for you,

I would've died 7 years ago.

All this time,

the Ren Susu I thought I knew

had only ever pushed me away,

used me,

and lied to me.

But the truth is,

when I was on the verge of death,

♪ The more passionate ♪

it was you who saved me

♪ Our past embrace ♪

at the risk of your own life.

And you even ended up...

♪ The more icy ♪

♪ Our present clash ♪

♪ If not tangled in love ♪

♪ We are locked in hate ♪

♪ There is no escaping it ♪

Can you...

say something to me from the heart?

You actually believe them?

You must be dreaming.

Then let's just say I'm dreaming.

Just tell me,

is it a nightmare

or a sweet dream?

Why are you always like this—

pushing me away while holding onto me at the same time?

Is it really that hard to show me how you truly feel?

Would it kill you to just say

you love me?

Saving a life may be a big deal to you,

but to me, it's just another day.

Even if I told you, so what?

So you'd be grateful to me?

Would you even know how to be grateful?

I don't know how to be grateful?

How far do I have to go to be considered grateful?

You've been pushing me away.

What would it even take for you to believe I'm grateful?

Ren Susu, listen.

I never once

asked you to save me.

Fine.

You want to talk about 7 years ago?

Then let's talk about 19 years ago.

At that time, someone force-fed you opium and threw you into the river.

Do you even remember that someone saved you?

Wake up.

Wake up.

No.

We can't send him away.

His parents have already abandoned him.

Are we going to abandon him too?

Because I saved you...

my whole family died in that fire.

And before you left...

you said the exact same thing.

I never asked you to save me.

"I never asked you to save me."

It was the indifference and abuse of the two families

that turned you into someone selfish.

But because of you,

I lost my family.

I also suffered a lot of indifference and abuse,

and became the selfish person I am now.

Years ago,

you said you loved me...

because we're the same.

But if I'd never met you...

I never would've become someone like you.

I would've still been the Ren Susu

who dragged a stranger

out of a freezing river, brought him home,

risked everything to care for

and protect him,

and, even after he got

my entire family killed, still worried about his safety.

So, given all that,

doesn't your love...

seem ironic now?

was destroyed and shattered into pieces

by those monsters

after she was

sent to the orphanage.

Young Master Qingyi.

Something's wrong.

Young Master Le'an

has been taken away by Madam Murong.

Child,

I bought you a lot of new clothes.

Look.

Isn't it pretty?

Don't be afraid.

Come on.

Come on.

This one.

Toy car.

A toy car.

A toy car.

Come on. Take it.

Who exactly are you?

Why did you bring me here?

I'm your grandma.

Don't be afraid.

Look.

Take it.

Come on.

Come on.

Good boy.

You're so handsome.

Let me tell you.

You don't

look like Murong Qingyi.

You look like your uncle.

I know now.

You're Qingyu, come back to me in another life.

Heaven has answered my prayers.

Heaven has answered my prayers.

Peilin.

Peilin.

Peilin,

doesn't he look just like Qingyu

when he was little?

Our Qingyu has come back.

He's come back.

Don't be afraid.

Grandma is here.

Don't be afraid.

Don't be afraid.

Mrs. Wang.

Young Master Boze,

you're finally here.

Has she decided

to move back to Wuchi?

Madam said

things are different now

and that there's nothing left here worth her staying for.

It's all because of that person.

He actually announced publicly that he was marrying that woman.

Madam got drunk again as soon as she got home.

It's okay, Mrs. Wang.

I'll go upstairs first

to check on Mother.

Qingyi.

Grandma will take you away

from this hellhole very soon.

From now on,

we're never coming back.

Let Le'an go!

Who are you?

Don't be afraid.

Daddy is here.

Laiyi.

Take Le'an out of here.

Go back to Lanxin Theater first.

Okay.

Go.

Peilin.

Peilin.

You're back.

You've finally come back.

All these years,

I've been all alone.

It's been so hard.

You left.

Qingyu also left.

The two of you, father and son,

left me behind.

As a woman, I've been

holding up the Murong family all by myself.

I've never failed you.

I've never failed the Murong family.

I deserve your love.

I'm old now.

My wrinkles...

my white hair...

I grew old for you, Peilin.

Peilin...

Peilin...

Look closely.

Who am I exactly?

It's you.

Wake up.

Murong Feng...

never loved you.

Yet you insist on lying to yourself.

I never harmed him,

yet you keep lying to yourself.

In the end, you've trapped yourself

in your own delusion and spent half your life hating me.

What did it get you?

Mother,

the greatest wisdom in life

is not to deceive yourself.

What right do you have to lecture me?

Listen up:

for the rest of your life,

you'll bear the guilt of causing your father's death.

And now,

you've married your brother's woman.

You and Fang Mulan

are both morally corrupt.

You'll live in disgrace for the rest of your lives.

Everything I've done

is for the Murong family!

What right do you have to condemn us?

From Murong Feng,

to my brother, to Ren Susu,

to me, and even to Le'an—

all you've ever wanted is for everyone

to dance to your tune.

Again and again,

you've trampled on everyone's will

and tried to control everyone's life.

Now

you've become someone everyone despises,

and this is entirely your own doing.

That child

is the Murong family's own flesh and blood.

Bringing him home

is only right.

I will never allow

that morally corrupt woman

to be his mother.

I'll raise him myself.

He'll become the heir to the Murong family!

In your dreams!

What do the words

"flesh and blood"

even mean to you?

Are we just puppets?

How do you know...

that child isn't your brother's son?

How pathetic.

You've ruined too many people's lives.

But I will absolutely not

let your paranoia

ruin my life again.

This is my final warning—

stay away from my wife and child.

Otherwise,

I will not let you off.

Leave then!

Every single one of you

thinks only about leaving me—

abandoning me!

Then don't ever come back!

Don't ever come back!

Don't come back...

Don't come back...

[Murong Residence]

Brother,

may I come into your study?

Boze,

you can enter my study

whenever you want.

Brother...

I'm so tired.

I'm really so tired.

I don't know what to do anymore.

I really have done everything I possibly could.

And yet, this family...

this family has fallen apart anyway.

[RDX Explosive Purchase Contract]

Brother had been secretly investigating Father Li and the Zhang family.

Put me through to the aviation school.

[File]

I need to speak with Vice Principal Ye.

This man stole some Red Pills from the train station warehouse.

According to the men from his unit,

he'd been using them secretly for a long time,

and nothing ever happened.

But this time, he heard a new batch

had arrived at the station...

After taking the new Red Pills,

he ended up like this.

-Marshal. -Marshal, you can't go in.

Marshal.

Marshal, you can't go in.

Let him in.

Mr. Li, today...

This isn't just some drug, is it?

There's something else mixed into it, huh?

You've seen the power behind our chamber of commerce.

What do you say?

Work with us.

What exactly are you plotting?

What's with this strange disease?

How is it treated?

They're just some side effects.

They chose to sink into depravity.

If it weren't Red Pills, it'd be some other drug.

I simply give them a cheaper alternative,

and they're deeply grateful for it.

Besides,

this stuff relieves pain.

In times like these,

medicine is so scarce.

When poor people fall ill,

all they can do is endure it.

This stuff makes them forget the pain.

Compared to all those benefits,

those little side effects are hardly worth mentioning.

Is it that good?

Come on, then.

I'll beat you up.

How about you eat this yourself to numb the pain?

Don't think I don't know what you've been up to.

The Red Pills used to be just a drug,

but not anymore.

You want to use me to spread this strange disease.

I, Li Rongzhang,

will never be part of your filthy scheme.

And I will never

hand this batch of Red Pills over to you.

Li Rongzhang.

Think carefully about the consequences.

The North-South Railway is my turf.

My Ying Army is stationed at the train station.

Even if I die,

I guarantee you—

not even a fly will get through.

You want the Red Pills?

Dream on.

Li Rongzhang.

You're charged with abusing your authority

to facilitate the distribution of drugs.

The evidence is conclusive.

From this moment on,

you're suspended from all official duties,

stripped of command over the North-South Railway,

and placed under house arrest,

forbidden to leave!

Li Rongzhang,

defying military orders

is equivalent to treason.

Go get the goods out of the train station.

Li Rongzhang's been arrested,

but the station

is still under the Ying Army's control.

Go to whoever will take over command of the Ying Army.

Get it done quickly.

Though I didn't know Miss Ren's full plan,

at the wedding,

I did swap identities with Miss Ren.

Qingyu was aware of this too.

Inspector Li.

There was another gunman at the scene,

targeting the Marshal.

Li Rongzhang,

he deserves to die.

Ren Susu,

my father had no grudge against you.

In the plan your brother and I devised,

I was supposed to die anyway.

Boze,

if one day

the Murong family and the Li family ended up on opposite sides,

what would you do?

Brother,

you promised me.

You said

nothing would ever change.

Of course I remember.

You'll always be my brother.

Boze.

The Murong family will always be your home.

You said

nothing would ever change.

But it did.

Even this early on,

you already wanted to kill my father.

Even this early on,

you already wanted to destroy the Li family.

Brother.

But it was you...

You were the one who sent me away from the Murong family.

If you could speak,

if you were still alive,

could you tell me?

Tell me,

was I ever truly family to you?

Did you ever truly see me as one?

Or did you never,

not even once, treat me as your own brother—

always just

an expendable pawn to you?

Why,

Brother?

Why?

Brother...

Yes.

I finally understand.

I was a fool.

Such a fool.

The truth is, you'd already given me the answer.

From beginning to end,

inside and out—

I was never truly one of the Murong family.

You were a liar.

It was you!

Murong Qingyu, you deceived me!

From this day forward,

I sever all ties

[Brother Boze]

with the Murong family!

If anyone tries to destroy my Li family again...

if anyone ever again tries to harm my father...

whoever it is...

I will eliminate them,

one

[Brother Boze]

by one!

I will never again let anyone hurt my family—

my real home!

[Brother Boze]
