[Truth or Dare - Episode 05]

[Meeting my hero]

T-the soup doesn't taste good when it's cold.

Why would you give it to me if it doesn't taste good?

Sorry, I'll go serve you a new bowl.

Did you poison it?

How could I?

We are husband and wife, the closest to each other.

Then, why did you take my soup?

After smelling its fragrance, I want to drink it.

Is that not allowed?

How does it taste?

- Pretty good. - Anything wrong with it?

- No. - If nothing's wrong with it, why would you steal my soup?

Whenever I'm h-hungry, I have no energy. You know that.

Moreover, I'm helping you taste it in case it tastes bad

and you become unhappy.

I'll go serve you a new bowl.

How is it? Are you okay?

As I expected, this princess is definitely abnormal.

- What happened? - I'm not too sure.

The princess suddenly can't stop vomiting.

Could it be that the princess is expecting?

- Impossible! - Impossible!

You'd best go see a physician.

No need.

I'm perfectly healthy.

It's just that I ate too much in these past few days.

It'll be fine once I throw up the retained food.

The Princess is a noble member of the imperial family. Our Mei Manor

cannot allow you to suffer any accidents.

- Siheng, bring a physician. - Don't!

I still have the ability to run about. I'm seriously fine.

After throwing up, my body even feels lighter.

My steps are more graceful as well.

What are you nervous about?

Am I nervous?

It's good if you're not.

Siheng, let's go.

Yes.

Are you sure you don't have to see a physician?

More trouble—

More trouble is worse than less trouble.

Don't you think Third Young Master Mei is kind of strange?

Is he?

I went to smell the medicinal materials Second Madam brought over.

Who knows how long they've been left out for? They're completely inedible.

She brought over tonics that have been left out for who knows how long?

This wicked woman.

She harmed me so severely.

I can't! T-toilet! Hurry!

Let's leave quickly.

- Greetings, Second Madam. - Greetings, Second Madam. - How is the princess?

I heard her condition wasn't well, so this morning,

I came specifically to visit her.

Second Madam, you're so considerate.

Princess.

How are you feeling? Do you need me to help you find a physician?

I had just been wanting to ask you, Second Madam.

The thing you asked people to send over. Was it medicine or poison?

What do you mean, Princess?

It's because I ate your medicine that I started vomiting and having diarrhea.

How could I harm you?

Could it be that the servants took the wrong thing?

Did you mix up the gift I was sending to the princess and the thing that needed to be thrown away?

Then, Madam, you're so careless.

Remember that the medicine was meant for Shiqing's use.

Princess, what are you trying to say?

Even though Shiqing isn't my biological son,

I've always treated him like he is.

This is definitely a misunderstanding.

No one would believe you.

Put away that false face of yours.

Everyone in the manor knows that you and Shiqing don't get along.

If you said you gave Shiqing a good gift, who would believe that?

Princess, you know that Third Young Master and I don't get along,

but you still accepted my gift.

If word of this were to get out, at most it would be,

"The Princess teamed up with the Second Madam to kill her husband".

You're shameless!

I only wanted to have you join me. I didn't expect you

to be so loyal and affectionate to that blind man.

If that is so, I have nothing more to say.

The second madam is going too far!

What's so great about this?

- Return it all to her! - Yes,

I'll take it all over right away.

We can't accept this gift!

She gifted it to me, so it's mine.

I swear that I won't help her do anything bad.

Xiao Wanzi!

Look at how gold and shiny it is, how innocent and cute it is!

Can you bear to bring it to that wicked woman's side?

Princess, the prince consort is here to see you!

Let go! Let go!

Greetings, Prince Consort. Then, I'll go and make the princess some porridge now.

Careful.

Siheng, go and help Qiao Yun.

Yes.

I've warned you before to stay away from the second madam.

I've never been close to her anyways.

There's a limit to my patience, so you better listen to me.

- Do you not trust me? - I don't.

Mei Shiqing, there's also a limit to my patience!

If I wasn't concerned for your safety, I wouldn't have stolen that bowl of soup from you and drank it!

I should've also let you taste the flavor of vomiting and diahrrea!

Fine, I won't beg you to be grateful to me either.

After all, you're just someone who doesn't know how to be grateful.

Whatever, I'll treat it as losing weight.

If you knew something was wrong with that bowl of soup, why didn't you throw it out?

What do you mean by that?

The literal meaning.

What's important is that I saved you. Nothing else matters!

Is that so?

I've warned you long ago,

you cannot accept things from the second madam.

I'm so furious! Not only are his eyes blind, his heart is even more blind!

No wonder why he can't get a wife.

Aren't you his wife?

I'm not his real wife.

Whoever marries him must've been unlucky for 8 lives!

Be more quiet. If you let anyone hear you, do you even want your life?

Xiao Wanzi, now what happened?

Mei Shiqing is a huge idiot!

This Prince Consort has the mindset of a youth.

Be more understanding.

I miss my father.

Rather than suffering from the bullying of others,

it would be better to escape together.

That cannot be!

Yes, Xiao Wanzi, this is something that relates to life and death!

Besides, you have already promised us that you'd wait until the plan finishes.

Don't change your mind suddenly!

I was just saying.

How could I, Xiao Wanzi, not keep my word?

Since I have already promised you two that I would protect the princess's wedding,

then I, Xiao Wanzi,

definitely will not admit defeat!

A moment's toleration will bring calm winds and waves.

Take one step back, and you will find the vast oceans and skies.

But, Third Young Master Mei doesn't trust me at all.

Then, gain his trust, all right?

I don't have the confidence.

Tomorrow, the monthly payment will be distributed.

Leave it to me!

Isn't it just trust?

Are you kidding me?

Young Master, you still haven't forgiven the princess?

What if she really didn't do it on purpose?

What I'm suspicious of is her identity.

Are you saying that... she's not the princess?

The Princess of the Ninth Prince Manor is well-known for her scholarliness.

Yet the Princess who married into our manor doesn't know how to write.

I'm not sure if the Ninth Prince Manor is lying

or if...

File three, nine.

So you were here, Shiqing.

Looking for you was so hard!

- Greetings, Princess. - What were you looking for me for?

Last time, it was my fault.

So I have decided to make up for it using good deeds.

I will personally cook soup for you.

- Come on! - Come on.

Princess, don't make things hard for Young Master.

Don't worry. This time, I will make it right here and you will drink it right here.

There definitely won't be any problems.

Shiqing, wait a moment.

- Siheng. - Young Master.

Leave the letter that the princess wrote a while ago here with me.

Later, help me deliver it to the Song Manor in the west of the city.

Song Manor? Alright.

By the way, Princess,

help me check if this letter was written by you or not.

Yes, yes, yes. This is the letter. Go deliver it.

- Great. - No need to rush.

I want to amend the contents of the letter.

Siheng, prepare paper and ink for the princess.

Yes. I'm going now.

You bunch of people, you better be careful.

Don't let the black smoke billow near our princess. It will cause her to have a headache and faint.

Yes.

Princess, Princess, what's wrong? Princess.

- Princess. - Why is my head...

- What's wrong with the princess? - dizzy?

It must be because the princess cannot inhale smoke

so she has become weak and fragile.

Hurry and escort her to her room to rest now.

Yes.

Princess, Princess, what's wrong with you, Princess?

Princess, what's wrong with you now?

Something really seems to be wrong with the princess.

It's fine. Just wait and observe the changes.

Surely he's not suspecting my identity?

If this is really the case,

even if my identity is not exposed,

he will ensure that life is worse than death for me.

This won't do. This won't do.

Gold and money are precious but life is more precious.

Moreover, if my father can't find me, he will be very anxious.

Leaving is still the best.

I'm so sorry, Qiao Yun and Qiu Hua.

But rest assured.

After I have found my father, I will come back and save you.

I'm too righteous.

Fortunately, I'm naturally intelligent and talented and took precautions.

I mastered the guard's patrolling route early on.

I'm finally free.

Princess, why aren't you asleep?

You... aren't you not asleep either?

I was afraid you would escape so I have been guarding the door here every night.

So ruthless?

You are not thinking of escaping, right?

H-how could I? Are you joking?

I came specially to look for you.

Look for me? Why?

I'm hungry.

I wanted you to cook a bowl of noodles for me.

That's it?

Let's go.

Princess, didn't you want to eat? Aren't you coming to eat it?

Coming.

I'm dying of fury! I'm dying of fury!

I'm so unlucky! It was just one step! Just one step!

What's going on?

Secret passageway?

Oh my goodness.

This Third Young Master Mei sure has lots of schemes.

There must be some unspeakable secret in here.

Anyone there?

Anyone there?

My goodness.

Where is this leading to?

Seems like Second Madam is indeed correct.

This Mei Shiqing is definitely problematic.

How sickening.

I wonder whether he went to meet some lover of his.

My Goodness. Heaven really has eyes. (T/N: Meaning that reward and punishment are being granted as if by Heaven's will)

I can finally escape!

[Ruyi Restaurant]

Omniscient Old Lai, back then, who asked you to look for Crazy Old Chen?

Other than him, who else did you look for?

I didn't say I wouldn't tell you,

but I won't necessarily tell you now.

Don't ask for a foot when you are given an inch. (Don't go too far)

You're the ones who want to find him, not me.

A'Rou.

It's a fair business transaction. Help me get what I want,

and you can also get what you want.

Fine. I will talk.

Ten years ago, someone paid me to find a killer.

This person... even now, I don't know who he is.

After taking the money, I found two people for him.

Other than Crazy Old Chen, there's another person.

This person has already cleansed their identity

and is no longer a bandit.

This person set up a pawnshop at Qingshi Alley, west of the city, to make a living.

Anything else?

That's all. I don't know anything else.

I also don't have a need to hide anything from you.

You got the money already. You may leave now.

[Pawnshop]

We are closed for business already. Come back tomorrow.

Killing and robbing for hire

has such thing as "closed for business"?

Night-Spirited Hero?

Stop!

Why is it her?

Miss, are you alright?

Miss, remove your hands.

If you have the time,

can you escort me home?

I wonder whether this bad guy is still nearby.

It's too late to catch up now. It's the perfect chance to investigate whether this princess is a fake.

Fine.

- Brother. - What's wrong? - I need to go to the latrine.

- I have a stomachache. - Alright, alright.

- Keep a close watch. - Fine, fine. Just go. Go.

The other person is sleeping there.

Great.

Master Bao.

I will deal with you properly after I get back!

Wanzi.

Go back with me.

Don't force me. I won't leave with you.

Wanzi, listen to me.

Go back with me and I won't give you a hard time.

Don't come here!

Stop, stop, stop. Don't move.

- Don't come over. - Don't worry.

Go back with me and I won't give you a hard time. Listen to me.

I really don't want to go back. Don't come over.

Be good.

Be careful!

[Qingcheng Tower]

Why did you bring me here?

You asked me to buy you ribs and alcohol. Is this your home?

I don't have a home.

You don't have one?

Its okay. Don't be so sad.

Let's go. I'll take you to go drinking.

Here.

Good liquor.

Here. Let's taste the ribs from the Ruyi Restaurant. They're really—

No need. Men do not eat sweet foods.

No way. I won't allow

the Night-Spirited Hero to have never eaten such delicious ribs.

This is so delicious.

I am telling you. Every time I eat ribs from the Ruyi Restaurant,

no matter how how bad of a mood I am in,

I will immediately cheer up.

[Qingcheng Tower]

Enough. Stop drinking.

How is this enough?

Are you looking down on my alcohol tolerance?

Do you know?

Honestly, I am ashamed to say this,

I have always admired you so much,

Night-Spirited Hero.

Is that so?

Ever since I was a child, I have been dreaming

that I could, with you... I grew up listening to your legends.

- Am I that old? - Hey!

Anyway, I have always dreamed of being like you,

flying across rooftops and hopping over walls, seeking justice and helping the weak.

Wandering around Jianghu.

But I think you should become a great chef.

Hey, are you looking down on me? Do you know what my unique skill is?

What is it?

The Boulder-Shattering Chest.

The Boulder-Shattering Chest?

Isn't it impressive?

It's quite unique.

Since I was a child, as soon as I was full,

I would have great strength.

However, if I hadn't eaten enough, I would not have any energy and wouldn't be able to do it.

When I was five years old, my father would tell me,

"Xiao Wanzi, say, you eat so much that I can't afford to raise you.

You might as well not idle around. Go shatter boulders with your chest!"

"Don't you know you need to earn your own money to support yourself?"

That was when I started to follow my father

selling performances on the streets.

Then I learned great martial arts along the way.

I'm not worse than you.

Isn't it just street performing?

What do you mean just "street performing"? That sounds really bad.

What I am doing is call m-m-martial arts conjuring.

Okay, then why aren't you shattering boulders with your chest now?

I won't lie to you. Right when I met you,

I had just escaped from the Mei Manor.

Why did you go to Mei Manor?

My father loves gambling.

After he lost money gambling, he didn't have any money to pay his debts.

Then I was pawned to some, some

Green Dragon Fort to become a bandit's wife.

Eventually, they took me to the Ruyi Restaurant,

and then in Ruyi's Restaurant, I encountered another girl who was also supposed marry someone, just like I was.

In conclusion, coincidentally,

the two of us entered the wrong rooms and I married into the Mei Manor.

That girl... Anyway, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

Then... did anyone recognize you after you got to the Mei Manor?

I only found out after I entered the Mei Manor.

That girl was actually a princess!

She was specifically betrothed to that

Third Young Master Mei.

I was about to run away. After I heard this news, I got scared to death and tried to escape.

But a maid and a guard

wouldn't let me leave no matter what. They pulled on my sleeves and yelled that they wouldn't let me go.

They cried and begged me to stay. They wanted me to—

Do you know that losing the princess was a crime punishable by decapitation?

So I'm a person who

most dislikes seeing people...

most dislikes seeing people in dire situation. I thought to myself, "Seeing how pitiful they were, I need to help them!"

That's how I stayed behind and pretended to be the princess.

So that's what happened.

That's right.

Then after you married that Third Young Master Mei,

how did he treat you?

Just mentioning it makes me so angry. He's just a huge villain!

He's seriously so hard to interact with. No, no...

It's not only that he's hard to interact with. He's absolutely unreasonable.

He's both heartless and tasteless.

He doesn't have anything. Having to serve him every day is so pitiful.

Just thinking about it makes me miserable.

I am so pitiful.

Really. Is he really that bad of a person?

More than terrible.

I've already been speaking mercifully.

He's really not even a human.

But, conscientiously speaking,

I don't despise him too much.

There are times where he will take care of me a little bit. Just a little bit.

Stop drinking. You've already drunk a lot.

No. I can still drink.

Really. I will take you home, okay?

I'm not going back!

- I'm not going back. - Why not?

I need to wait for my father.

My father.

This is our secret connection point.

In the past, whenever something happened,

I would tell my father we would reunite here.

But...

Th-then where is your father?

I don't know where my father went.

I can't find my father.

Okay, okay, stop crying.

Stop crying. How about this? How about this? How about this?

Stop crying, I will take you... Didn't you want to fly above buildings and run over walls?

I will take you flying. I will take you flying.

- Flying? - Yes.

How was it? Exciting?

Then, since it's so late,

I am going back to the Mei Manor, Night-Spirited Hero.

Okay.

Then I am going to go.

Go ahead.

I am really leaving.

Thanks for today. Goodbye.

Bye.

Wait.
