The Legend of Fragrance

Episode 18

This bird...

is for you.

Hold it.

Actually what the bird said is what I wanted to say.

What kind of joke is this?

I'm not joking.

Even though you make me angry, I still like you more.

Le Yan,

I like you. I really like you. I just like you.

I also don't know. I just like you.

Stinky girl I love you!

Le Yan, Pei Shan loves Wen Shi Xuan, An Yi Chen loves Hui Zi jie jie, I love you.

See what a good thing this is.

You say big brother An loves big sister Hui Zi? Don't lie.

I'm not lying!

This is what Yi Chen told me personally. he said they were in love in Japan.

And he said something about fate bringing them together again.

He said the one in his heart, the woman he loves is XIao Ya Hui Zi.

You're gossiping. I'm not talking to you anymore.

Hey you stinky girl! You can't really be falling for An Yi Chen, can you?

He's only treating you as a little sister. Don't over think yourself.

Le Yan, whether it's family, character, or looks, which one do I lack from An Yi Chen?

Why is your taste so lacking?

At least An dagw won't be like you who teaches his bird to say these things.

Stinky girl I love you!

If I knew, I won't have brought you.

Yi Chen-kun, did you tell Zhi Yuan the truth?

What did I tell Zhi Yuan?

Zhi Yuan said, you said it.

When we were in Japan, you were already in love with me.

But because you had to return to China, ou relationship couldn't move forward.

Now that we're reunited at Ning Manor,

It's almost as if fate brought us together. That's why you don't want to miss this change.

What does that mean? Huh?

-Your face. -What is it?

Hui Zi!

Actually, I'm like Wen Shi Xuan.

We both have a deeply hidden low self-esteem.

Do you know, a woman's beauty is like a flower.

The blooming stage is short and cannot last long,

but a woman's interior is like the fragrance, and can last for a long time.

You mustn't be too self conscious of your abnormality.

You're lying. What kind of man doesn't care for a woman's beauty?

When they say that they're all lying.

-Hui Zhi -Don't say anymore.

The more you comfort me,

the worse I feel in my heart.

There is a person who can make a fragrance to cure your illness.

Who?

Le Yan.

Isn't this asking me to humiliate myself?

Can you really not understand that the people I don't want to see most are

firstly you, then Le Yan?

I can understand exactly how you feel,

but you can't deny treatment.

Le Yan is a highly skilled perfumer, as are you.

Why can't you combine the strengths from both of you and practice together?

Hui Zhi,

I know that you're a brave woman.

I know that you won't be Shi Xuan who runs away

and force others around him to sacrifice their sense of smell for the sake of his pride.

You must have more courage. I'll face it with you.

I'll use the little Mobster's method to treat you well.

After a few days, you will slowly get better.

Le Yan meimei, are you asleep?

Hui Zi jiejie, I'm not sleeping yet, come in.

What's wrong? Why are you wearing a mask?

What's wrong with your face?

Le Yan don't be scared.

Three years ago I contracted a strange disease. This is the onset stage.

Weird disease?

Yeah.

Every month on those days, my mood will become tempered and impatient.

My face will also grow red spots, too ugly to look at.

But after these days, the red spots disappear.

Come sit over here.

Then did you go see a doctor?

It's no use.

All the famous doctors in Japan were unable to cure me.

Only the Chinese perfumer Xiang Shi Qi's perfume

was able to get rid of my moodiness and red spots.

Only Master Xiang has passed away for many years. His perfume

has also disappeared from this world with him.

Don't tell me...There no one else that can make that fragrance?

There is.

This person...Is actually you.

-Me? -Yes, Le Yan.

Let us create this perfume together.

Combine both our Japanese and Chinese skills, and your natural talent.

Maybe we can make this perfume.

Thank you Hui Zi jiejie for your confidence. Le Yan will definitely help you.

Try it.

How is it?

How is it? It's it better?

It's okay. I'll try again.

How is it?

To see if it works or not is based on this one.

Try, last time.

The ingredients used here are all for soothing nerves.

I've already tried my best to copy the scent based on your description.

I hope this is it.

It is this fragrance.

That's right, it's this fragrance.

Le Yan meimie, you really are a talented perfumer.

Sometimes I even envy you. Why can't I have your talent?

Take a look at my face. Is it better? Is it gone?

It is a bit better.

Really?

Le Yan meimie, thank you for comforting me.

But to make the best perfume in the world, how can it be so simple?

It looks like our perfume

is still far inferious to Master Xiang's.

Little sister Le Yan, you already worked for a whole day, hurry and go rest.

I'm not tired. Hui Zi jiejie isn't feeling well these days. You should go rest.

It's ok, I will think of a way to try again.

Here.

Father, smell this fragrance.

.

The perfuming method is very unique.

Hui Zi, your skills have much improved.

Father, I did not make this perfume, Le Yan did.

Oh?

That girl really is talented.

Just a mere 10 days has made her skills greatly improve.

She is above you.

You've already become sisters with this girl.

Then you should hurry and get her on our boat.

This way, we can bring her to Japan.

Father, Le Yan and I are sisters now.

She treats me genuinely.

This fragrance…It was so that she can cure my illness

stayed up for many days and night to make.

Even though my illness can't be cared,

but I feel very grateful to her. I don't want to hurt her.

Stupid!

Hui Zi, don't forget.

The blood that runs within you is out Xiao Ya family's noble blood.

How can you be friends with this Chinese person?

No, Father! You don't understand

the happiness that I feel when Le Yan and I

make perfumes together.

That time, there is only perfume in our eyes, our hearts.

We forget everything and submerge into the world of perfume.

Hui Zi, remember.

We a apart of the Xiao Ya family. We hold an important mission for Japan.

Personal relations are made from selfishness.

Compared to the benefit of the country, it is irrelevant.

Yi Chen-kun.

Oh yeah, your face is better.

Yes, it's better.

But mext month my face will become terrifying again.

Don't worry, Lu Ye will work hard to make the fragrance.

She didn't sleep again yesterday night.

Lu Ye is a good lady.

No wonder Yi Chen-kun has feelings for her.

What are you talking about?

I just heard your voice fill with sadness.

Why are you sad?

I know you weren't in the manor last night to see your father.

You're conflicted because of that, right?

Yi Chen-kun, you know me too well.

Our Xiao Ya family has me as the only heir left.

I must be as a man and uphold all responsibility of my family.

I am the same as you. Living for the sake of responsibility.

No one can choose their birth.

Since we cannot escape what was planned for us,

we can only face it.

Yi Chen-kun, how I wish one day

I can forget my responsibility and you forget your hatred

and we can leave everything, escaping to a placer where only we are. How wonderful would that be.

I already used all the methods you taught me to make the perfume.

But I still couldn't cure Hui Zi jeijie's illness.

So, I want to ask you for advice.

Le Yan,

Xiao Ya Hui Zi is a Japanese.

And her father Xiao Ya Hui Lang is the Japanese chairman.

Do you know?

From what I know, Xiao Ya Tai Lang has already snuck Mo Wang Ling.

The Japanese perfume organization is out to cause trouble.

Their end goal is to dominate all of China's perfume.

Perfume and other forms of art are the same. It knows no national boundaries.

Now, I only want to create the world's best perfume to cure Hui Zi jiejie's illness.

Let's say, if Japan really has other motives

then we can stop them together when the time comes.

But this and curing Hui Zi jiejie's illness

have no relations. They are two different matters.

They say you cannot fight evil with evil. Why don't we use love to chase away the evil?

Le Yan has a point.

Perfumes know no boundaries. Not to mention Hui Zi is nothing like her father.

Le Yan, it's not that teacher doesn't want to help you, it's that teacher cannot help you.

Because without the perfume recipes that Master Xiang has left for Ning Hao Tian,

then we cannot create the perfume that cures Hui Zi's illness.

So if you truly want to help your sister,

then you must get a hold of Ning family's perfume recipe.

Perfume repipe?

But this is Ning family's recipe. How can I get it?

As long as Ning Zhi Yuan is willing to help, then you can get it.

No, no, no.

This is Ning family's treasure. Not to mention Ning Zhi Yuan and I...

It won't work. Even though the little Mobsters jokes around everyday,

but he's actually very calculated.

Like when he told me the secret to reviving the flowers,

he revealed it a little at a time.

If you want him to tell me all the secrets of the recipe at once,

how can that be possible?

Le Yan, as long as you use a little skill, I'm sure Ning Zhi Yuan

will give you the recipe.

What kind of person will I become if I lead Zhi Yuan on?

What Mr. Qiu means is that if you want to cure Hui Zi,

Then your only way is to get the Ning family's recipe.

But this recipe belongs to someone else. Also solving the case

and stealing the perfume recipe are two separate things.

This...

I don't have a reason for Ning Zhi Yuan to give it to me.

Le Yan, now you're wrong.

What do you mean it belongs to the Ning family?

That perfume recipe book is a accumulation of countless master perfumers' recipes.

It was put together by Master Xiang.

It only landed in Hao Tian's hands accidentally. When did it become their's?

I just don't think it's right to do this.

Le Yan, do you have the heart to see Hui Zi suffer her illness every month?

Le Yan, you just said

perfumes know no boundaries,

but why are you being so selfish now?

Alright, I will try and see.

She really is mad. She won't talk to me again.

It's all because of you!

Stinky girl!

Why would she come look for me?

Stinky girl, stinky girl!

You're still chirping! You don't think I'm sad enough?

Lu Ye? Did you come looking for me?

Stinky girl, I love you. Stinky girl, I love you.

You shut up!

Don't listen to its nonsense. What are you looking for me for?

Stinky girl I love you!

Wait a moment.

Wow.

What are you looking for?

Nothing. I'll just leave.

If you are looking for me, there must be something. Say it. If I can do it, I won't say no.

Um... I want to hurry and learn all the recipes in the book.

The contract says clearly that as long as I

properly tend to all the plants in Ning family's garden,

then you can teach me all the skills of the recipe book.

Now I've done it, so I hope you can fulfill your promise soon.

Dad, what Le Yan said was actually right.

Instead of using evil against evil, we can use love to disintegrate evil.

Don't you think by directly going after Ning Hao Tian for revenge...

Nonsense! How can these two things go together?

Le Yan and Hui Zi have a sister bond.

We and Ni Hao Tian are blood enemies!

Just because of the girl's few words, you've changed your heart?

The thing I'm worried about most is if Ning Hao Tian will give the perfume book to Le Yan.

If you think it's hard, then for forget it.

I, little Mobster, keeps his promises.

You're really willing to tell me?

Stinky girl, before I only wanted to tell you a little at a time

not because I wanted to tease you.

But because I wanted to spend more time with you.

Because only then, you didn't hate me, or resist me.

Actually...

Actually, I don't really hate you that much.

Actually, I thought about it. Fate can't be forced.

The more I make you stay at my side, the more you'll hate me. So why not let things go naturally.

But this fragrance is your family's secret.

If your father finds out you've told me everything on the perfume book,

won't the result be bad?

Then don't let my dad know.

Actually good skills are simply built upon previous foundations.

It can't be considered as your own.

I should be shared with others.

That way the right people can make it into something even greater,

and more meaningful to this line of work.

Ning great young master, I really didn't expect you to have this kind of insight.

Of course. Once my nose is cured and can inherit my father's work,

I will use the most advanced business methods

and the most talented perfumers to sign a franchise contract.

That way more people will have access to the perfume book, which will increase the skills of Mo Wang Ling.

So we can compete with the western method.

I didn't expect you to have this kind of mindset and ambition.

Don't complement me yet. To learn our family recipe, I have one more conditon.

What?

What is it?

Relax. I won't make you marry me.

The perfume recipe is what my sister told me after she snuck a look.

I can only rewrite it.

So tonight you have to stay with me as I write it.

.

The person does not have to be a professional.

In order to learn how to make fragrances, learn the essence first.

In order to create the essence, first learn the flowers and how to mix them.

Flowers are alive, trees have hearts, grasses have feelings.

Whoever can connect with plant emotionally

should be able to use love to cure.

And will make the best of essences.

Here, drink some tea.

Finally finished. Take a look.

The fragrance book is miraculous.

The reason why our Ning family can be so prosperous in Mo Wang Ling

is all thanks to this fragrance book.

You usually look like you're fooling around.

I didn't expect your characters to look so neat.

Just noticed my good things?

If you're afraid, you can still go back.

Aya, it's already morning.

Young master, are you hungry? I will get something for you to eat.

I'm not hungry. How can be hungry when my eyes are feasting on a beautiful girl?

What's wrong?

Look at what it says.

Flowers have flower fragrance, grasses have grass fragrance, people have body fragrance.

This method can be used to extract young women's essence.

Yeah.

Although it seems bizarre but that's what the book said.

Can it be...

Those disappearing flower girls have been kidnapped for their body scents?

Not possible.

This fragrance, other than my father, only I, Pei Shan knows. I'm not some evil person.

There must be another reason why they are missing.

Thank you for your trust.

Stinky girl, even though I know things can't be forced,

but we can still make do.

Why don't we just...

I was just giving a little suggesting. If you don't like it, then take it as I never said anything.

Hey, what are you doing. This..

Young master, thank you for your trust in me.

But this fragrance is your family's secret.

No matter who else you share this with,

but I have to respect your trust to me.

In the future, these words will be in my mind.

Relax, I won't leak it out.

Stinky girl, I know that even though you hate me

But your heart is still leaning toward me, right?

I'll go make something for you to eat.

Hey!

What's wrong with you?

His smile, his looks.

why is it not leaving my mind?

What kind of spell are you under?

You can't forget

Big brother An, in order to save you he almost threw away his life.

Let me tell you, the one you love is Brother An.

I'm warning you.

If you dare to loose focus, even I will look down on you.

I knew even you seen like you hate me.

But inside you still like me, right?

Little sister Lu Ye

Hui Zi jie, An dage.

Please sit.

Le Yan, your eyes are red. You didn't sleep?

I didn't sleep the whole night yesterday.

Ah? Are you still making the fragrance?

No, I was with Ning Zhi Yuan. He was re-writing the fragrance book.

-You were with Ning Zhi Yuan yesterday? -Yes.

-The whole night? -Yes.

Yi Chen-kun, aren't you asking the obvious?

Ning Zhi Yuan was re-writting the fragrance book.

Le Yan meimei couldn't have just kept the candle burning for him?

That's not what I meant. Did Zhi Yuan really write down the whole book?

But I already burned the entire book.

Why?

Hui Zi jiejie, I'd love to make fragrance with you.

And I hope to make a fragrance to cure you soon.

But I cannot tell Ning family's secret to anyone.

Because I cannot betray Zhi Yuan's trust in me.

It looks like after last night, Le Yan's changed her view on Zhi Yuan a lot.

Maybe we just don't know him well enough.

Actually, he's very open-minded.

The reason why he told me the book

wasn't only because he liked me.

Le Yan, so you mean you won't give the fragrance book to Hui Zi and I?

I won't tell other people.

But I will follow the book's methods

to make a fragrance that can cure Hui Zi jiejie.

Quickly say, stinky girl marry me.

Stinky girl I love you.

Are you stupid? Do you only know how to say this one thing? Say stinky girl marry me.

Stinky girl I love you

You stupid bird.

Brother, save me.

Pei Shan, what is it again?

If you have anything to say, stand up and say it.

No, if you don't agree, I won't stand up.

Pei Shan, what happened? Hurry up and tell me.

Brother, quickly think up a way to let me marry brother Xuan.

Or else, I really have to go die.

What?

Guan Lan Cao, this is using the Tyrant's method

to make this serum for you.

It can revive your damaged roots.

Rest your injuries and get well soon!

Le Yan! Le Yan!

I say, eldest young master, what's wrong?

Normally you call me stinky girl but why are you calling me Le Yan today?

Something happened to Pei Shan.

She has to marry Wen Shi Xuan.

I've thought it over and only cam up with this. So you have to help no matter what.

You can't beg me yet.

You have to tell me what is it.

Things are alrady like this so I'll tell you.

Pei Shan has it.

Has what?

Such a dumb girl.

She has a child.

You have a child?

Whose?

It's Wen young master's, right?

It's been 2 months.

If I don't think of a way to marry brother Xuan

when my stomach gets bigger, the only road left for me is to go die.

But how? Will your dad agree?

My dad's too prideful. If he finds out his daughter has his enemy's son,

he'll be so humiliated.

He'd rather marry her off and abort her baby

than ask Wen Manor for the marriage.

Then what can we do?

That's why I brought her to beg you.

Beg me?

So yo want me to beg your dad or Master Wen?

I don't have that much guts.

It's not them that I want you to beg.

I can't!

That's too out of line!

Only you, Ning Shi Yuan can think of such an idea.

In life you can't always do the same things.

Why don't you take a risk for once?

Stop contemplating. Saving a life will be greater than 7 Buddhas.

By helping to bring this fate together, it'll be greater than saving a life.

But

But I'm just an innocent girl.

Le Yan, I, Ning Zhi Yuan, never begged anyone before.

If Pei Shan can't married Wen Shi Xuan, then her whole life is ruined.

I only have this one sister. I beg of you. If you can help her,

From this moment on I won't call you stinky girl.

Stand up first.

Big sister Le, I beg of you

If you can promise me, if you can help me, I will be grateful to you this whole life.

Big sister Le, I beg you!

Big sister Le! Please!

Stand up first.

No! If you don't,

we won't stand up.

Le Yan, please!

Okay, fine I also don't what to see you unhappy forever.

Great young master, seeing as you gave me the fragrance book,

I'll fool around with you guys once.

Brother!

What? You want to personally go to Le Yan's house to apologize?

Why did you suddenly want to marry Le Yan?

Ning Hao Tian has become the Chairman of all four big districts.

He has massive amount of power and is trying to sign up for the World Fragrance Competition.

Dad, you're at a disadvantage. I can't just sit back and watch this happen.

Xuan er, you've finally made the rigth choice. Lao ye, this is great.

You really thought about this clearly?

You've decided? No turning back?

But the Wen family already lost face for the other incident

so this time I want to be more discrete.

Just out family with a small ceremony.

That will be our marriage.

That's good too. I'm just afraid Le Yan will mind.

I'll explain it to Le Yan.

Anyway, this time I will make everything run smoothly.

Don't worry father and mother.

Alright, now go get this matter done with.

It will be the Wan Guo fragrance meeting soon. By marrying Le Yan now,

our Wen family will definitely make a special fragrance.

Then we can take the first prize trophy.

Our Wen family can rise up again.

Stop the carriage!

Miss Le, what is it?

I want to go to the Hua Shen Miao.

You can't do that! Once you leave your maiden home,

you can't touch the ground until you reach the groom's house.

Or else it'll be bad luck.

Last night I dreamed of the Flower God.

He said if I don't pray at the temple today,

then the entire Mo Wang Ling will be cursed.

By then, all the flowers harvested this year won't be fragrant.
