[Follow Your Heart]
[Episode 20]
[Guangyu Hall]
It's early in the morning.
Are you here
to scold me again?
I won't delay your class.
I'll cut to the chase.
Can you sell me
the land deeds to Blossom Beauty
and Yan Nanxing's residence?
So, for my sister-in-law,
you've decided to fight Mother to the end?
Yeah.
Since
you called her your sister-in-law,
you'll help me, right?
Why should I help you?
Suoluo.
I came to your door today.
You can see it
as me begging you.
Begging me?
Then you need to be more sincere.
How sincere do you want me to be?
Yan Nanxing once said
your cooking is great.
It…
It seems you've never cooked for me before.
What do you want to eat?
Braised chicken with bean sprouts.
Rice cakes with dates.
Too complicated.
I don't have enough time today.
Come for the deeds
when my dishes are ready.
I asked for rice cakes with dates
and braised chicken with bean sprouts.
What are these?
Pumpkin cakes.
Millet porridge.
Is this how sincere you are?
Bean sprouts are cold in nature.
The rice cake is made of river rice.
Both of them
are hard to digest.
You've had stomach issues since you were little.
Mother keeps reminding the kitchen
to be careful with your diet.
I know
you're always busy.
But
you should learn to take good care of yourself.
You remember that?
♫Sit with you at night and listen to the wind♫
Of course I do.
♫When the wind flutters, the heart does too♫
♫Step by step, no words are spoken♫
♫Barged into sight♫
But these two dishes aren't what I asked for.
You're still not sincere enough.
♫When did your figure grow hazy?♫
I didn't cook for you
to get something
♫And how clear is it?♫
from you in return.
♫I don't intend to break your heart♫
Enjoy the food.
♫Silently fall into my arms♫
I'm leaving.
♫How to put it into words?♫
Wait.
♫We're soul mates♫
♫Only after I met you♫
♫Did I know true love existed♫
♫The world is ever-changing♫
♫We still remember♫
♫To be the stars♫
♫That light up each other's worlds♫
If Mother asks you
♫Don’t fear the night as dark as ink♫
how you
got the deeds,
♫Just take up your pen and sketch♫
♫You and I, recognizing each other with our hearts♫
don't rat me out.
Just make up an excuse.
♫Waiting for you in the blooming splendor♫
♫To pick the colors of spring for me♫
Rest assured.
♫Waiting for the starry sky♫
♫To offer your dreams to me♫
Thank you.
♫I invite you♫
♫To hold a place in my heart♫
♫Stay together forever♫
Enjoy the food.
Be careful. It's hot.
♫Sit with you at night and listen to the wind♫
♫When the wind flutters, the heart does too♫
♫Step by step, no words are spoken♫
♫Barged into sight♫
♫When did your figure grow hazy?♫
♫And how clear is it?♫
♫I don't intend to break your heart♫
♫Silently fall into my arms♫
[No. 4, Taiping Alley, Nanhua District]
What a surprise.
Boss has been staying
at Mr. Jiang's house lately.
What a surprise.
Sai'er has become
Mr. Shang's cook.
What a surprise.
Mr. Jiang and Mr. Shang
have actually made peace.
Yes.
They actually made up.
Strange.
Unbelievable.
Mr. Shang
is such a grumpy man.
Boss.
Don't say that.
Mr. Shang
is just a bit temperamental.
You're defending him?
It figures.
He pays your salary now.
I mean it.
After spending several days
with him,
I think he's cranky
probably because of his nose.
Be confident.
Leave out "probably."
You're so annoying.
Boss.
You're such a great doctor.
You can fix Mr. Shang's nose,
can't you?
Actually,
it's not impossible.
But I always feel that
he's moody
not because of the mask on his face.
Maybe
he has a mask on his heart.
A mask on his heart?
Boss.
They're all packed.
Okay.
This
is for Mrs. Bao.
This
is for Mrs. Zhang.
This
is for Miss Zhang.
Off you go.
Wait.
When delivering them,
you must be careful.
Don't let anyone find out
we're still secretly doing business,
especially the princess.
Go.
Mr. Jiang.
Mr. Jiang.
Are you free tonight?
Why?
I want to tell you something
really important
to you.
What's it?
Can't you say it now?
It's not time yet.
How about
I deliver it for you?
I'll come back early tonight
to cook dinner.
No way.
I promised Mrs. Bao
to give her a massage.
Can you give her a massage?
Then…
Then I'll walk you there.
No.
It's too high-profile.
What if someone sees us?
Alright.
Be back soon.
You too.
Twelve Music House,
Longxin Teahouse,
the Ghost Market, and the Li family's casino.
I've taken back all the artworks on their walls.
Why do you want them?
Have you figured something out?
Secret profiteering.
Yes.
Without exception, these artworks
are all fake.
Fake?
You know what?
The guy who replicated them was quite good at it.
At first glance,
they all seem genuine.
All businesses
and deals,
in the end,
are just ledgers.
In all these ledgers,
artworks have the highest prices.
Especially this painting.
Its price exceeds
the music house's earnings for half a year.
It's so expensive
but was casually hung
in the passage.
Does it make sense?
Then where should it be?
Well, just tell me
how to profit off fake artworks.
First, find a channel
to authenticate these fakes.
Then auction them off at high prices.
Since they're fake,
no one would buy them.
But Li Wufang claimed
to have found secret buyers.
In the end,
find a third party
to buy these fakes back
at low prices.
That way, everything is legit on the books.
And the artworks
can be sold again.
Buy fakes at high prices
to cook the books.
No need to hide the fakes.
What are you muttering about?
Nothing.
Then,
what should we do next?
Next, we should
find the people
who made these fakes,
sold them,
and arranged the deals.
Only by sorting out
how this business works…
Can we prove
that the accounts are fake.
Ms. Yan.
You're mistaken.
Ms. Yan.
I'm not mistaken.
Blossom Beauty has closed down.
It's really hard
to buy your creams again.
Well…
Let's find a place to talk.
Miss.
You're a regular,
but I don't remember you.
I'm ordinary-looking.
It's normal that you don't.
But
I've been thinking about you
and looking for you.
Looking for me?
You used this flyer
to look for someone, right?
So this is what they call
shooting fish
in a barrel.
Who are you?
It doesn't matter.
What matters is that
your man messed with me.
I don't have a man.
I'm not married yet.
Ms. Yan, you're lying through your teeth.
Rumor has it that Jiang Xinbai got married.
His bride
was you, right?
I've figured it all out,
or I wouldn't have abducted you.
You're married to Jiang Xinbai,
yet you're looking for another man.
Miss,
you're quite interesting.
I don't know what you're talking about.
What do you want?
Nothing.
I just want Jiang Xinbai here.
I don't know…
I don't know who you are.
But I think you misunderstand.
My relationship with him
isn't what you think it is.
He
He despises me for my humble origins.
I'll be honest with you.
He's long divorced me
with a repudiation letter.
He walked out on me.
You can't lure him here
by taking me hostage.
You can't fool me.
I can see
how much Jiang Xinbai cares for you.
You really misunderstand.
Then…
Let's have a bet.
Why hasn't she come back?
My lord.
You were supposed to pick her up at Mrs. Bao's.
Where is she?
Mrs. Bao said
Ms. Yan left her place
at a quarter to six.
She left so early?
Yes.
Mrs. Bao invited
Ms. Yan to stay for dinner.
But Ms. Yan said
she had an important date tonight
and left.
Something's off.
Go inform Shang Bieli.
Then,
go look for her with other constables.
Quick.
Yes.
I'm on it.
If you don't want her to die,
come to Twelve Music House
by yourself.
Jiang Xinbai!
You finally came.
If I hadn't come,
how could I catch you red-handed?
The Inspection Office is busy
looking for evidence
to charge you with Zornia trafficking.
I didn't expect you
to give me evidence yourself.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Aren't you two a thing?
Aren't you…
Aren't you worried about her?
If she dies,
her death will be honorable
because it's for a righteous cause.
What did I say?
I told you
he'd just let me die.
Jiang Xinbai,
you jerk!
Yan Nanxing,
you've fallen into enemy hands so many times.
I don't have the patience
to save you again.
You…
Do you hear him?
Let me go!
He's toast!
Mr. Li,
I want to remind you
that kidnapping
carries a sentence of 10 years.
Murder
carries the same sentence as selling Zornia:
decapitation.
Think carefully.
Mr. Jiang,
I'm just kidding
with Ms. Yan.
I-If I let her go now,
it's not
kidnapping, is it?
Yan Nanxing!
You're so good at acting.
I almost got fooled by you two.
Go on.
Keep acting.
Li Wufang.
You asked me to come here.
What do you want?
I want you to return my store.
Will you do it?
I want you
to stop pursuing Zornia.
Will you listen to me?
Since you won't,
one of you
has to die here today.
Either you die,
or she does!
Stop!
Not gonna happen!
Really?
Fine.
Do I have to die
to make you release her?
Yes.
Fine.
Tell me.
How do you want to play?
Mr. Jiang,
you made me lose everything.
First,
I want you to kneel
and apologize to me!
No, Jiang Xinbai.
Jiang Xinbai!
Don't kneel!
Don't kneel!
Will you kneel
or not?
Look.
Jiang Xinbai!
The chief constable of the Inspection Office
actually kneeled down before me
for a woman.
You have no backbone at all.
Now,
beat him.
Beat him to a pulp!
No!
Stop!
Jiang Xinbai!
Stop!
Fight back,
Jiang Xinbai!
Stop!
Yan Nanxing.
Close your eyes.
Don't look.
No!
Get off him!
Go on.
Beat him!
Jiang Xinbai!
Fight back, Jiang Xinbai!
Jiang Xinbai, get up!
Fight back!
Jiang Xinbai!
Fight back, Jiang Xinbai!
Stop beating him!
Stop.
Li Wufang!
Is this all you got?
Fu.
No! No!
No!
No!
No!
Star-crossed lovers.
Don't haunt me
after you die.
Jiang Xinbai.
Are you okay, Jiang Xinbai?
Jiang Xinbai!
Jiang Xinbai!
Jiang Xinbai!
Stop crying.
I'm fine.
Look at you.
You're not fine at all.
Sorry.
It's all my fault.
It's my fault you're injured.
Blame me.
It's all my fault.
It's not your fault.
You just want to find your young sir.
They used your care for him against you.
No.
I want to find Young Sir
to repay his kindness.
I don't feel for him
the way you think.
There's nothing between him and me.
Trust me.
I know.
I trust you.
Yan Nanxing.
There's already a man
who made you feel guilty.
I'll stay safe
so you don't have to worry anymore.
For this alone,
I'll stay alive.
Promise me
to stay safe
and live a long life.
Don't get hurt again.
I won't let you
get hurt again.
No matter what happens,
I'll protect you.
This won't happen again.
Don't cry.
I don't want you to protect me.
I want us to protect each other.
I'll protect you too.
Your face is all wet with tears.
Silly.
Don't cry.
I'm fine.
Father-in-law.
That stupid boy acted on his own
and deserved what he got.
He not only caused you
to be fined a year's salary
but also caused me to be demoted.
At this point,
I think
we have to give up on him.
Although he's not your biological son,
you watched him grow up!
Instead of thinking about
how to defeat Jiang Xinbai,
you want to give up on your boy?
I wish I had other choices.
But they've backed us into a corner.
I don't think
we can help him out.
Jiang Xinbai.
Wait and see.
I'll definitely
make you pay.
[Inspection Office]
[Ten days later]
[Upholding Justice]
You went to the lengths of killing
a court official.
Looks like
there are things
you really want to hide from me.
I won't tell you anything.
My grandfather will in no way
let me die.
I'd only die
if I told you something.
You have a point.
But
I can make you wish you were dead.
Do you wonder how it feels?
Maybe Mr. Lu
can keep you alive.
But I
can decide
how you'll live the rest of your life.
Kidnapping and murder
carry a minimum sentence of banishment.
I wonder
if there's a place you want to go.
Yazhou is good.
Most of the officials
who committed crimes went there.
Unfortunately,
you're not an official.
I'm afraid
you can't go to Yazhou.
Let me think.
Do you like snow, Mr. Li?
In Youzhou, it snows from June
until April of the next year.
The whole place is snow-white.
Very beautiful.
However,
it's hard to get food
in that remote place.
Lingnan is good too.
It's always summer there.
Unfortunately,
the air is toxic,
and pests like snakes, bugs, and rats
are everywhere.
Qixi is a choice too.
The desert there is magnificent.
It's just too far away.
I heard
many people died of starvation or thirst
on their way there.
Where do you want to go?
Jiang Xinbai.
What do you want to know?
Mr. Li,
I'm very interested in the artworks
you collected.
I can only tell you that
the person who bought them
wasn't me.
Chief Constable Jiang,
it's too bitter for you?
Drink it if you want.
I have no objection.
Gosh, Jiang Xinbai,
did you hurt your head too?
You almost kicked the bucket.
Why cover up for Li Wufang?
That jerk should be sentenced to death,
not banished!
Don't yell.
Can you let me finish the decoction first?
Anyway, I don't agree.
I don't need your approval
to make any decisions.
I don't care.
I saved your ass.
Thank you.
Why don't you ask
how I, Commander Shang,
found you
at Twelve Music House?
You're not hopelessly stupid
as to overlook what's hiding in plain sight.
Not hopelessly stupid?
Can't you just give me a compliment?
I'm not kidding.
It is…
It is a compliment.
I'm not kidding either.
You can't let Li Wufang off.
But
if this matter gets too much attention,
those scumbags will know
Nanxing is my weakness.
Look at you.
Hopelessly in love.
You got so badly injured.
Yet the clue you got is barely worth it.
How frustrating.
Think positive.
We've also bought time.
It's only two months,
but every extra day matters.
It's okay.
I'm so mad!
I'm so mad!
I have to tear Li Wufang apart
to vent my anger.
I heard that Li Wufang
has been banished to Lingnan.
He got what he deserved.
That was too good for him.
You know what?
He should've been
thrown into remote mountains
to be fed to deadly insects.
He deserved worse than that.
Someone like him
should be fed to poisonous snakes
or torn into pieces.
Right.
Boss.
I've decided
to stay by your side around the clock.
I won't let you face danger again.
No matter what,
Boss,
don't go out
for the time being.
Even if I want to go out,
I can't.
He's grounded me.
Who can ground our boss?
You're staying in willingly, right?
Sai'er.
You know what?
I think you were right.
Shang Bieli
is not as bad as I thought.
He came to our rescue this time.
How do you think
I can thank him?
Boss.
If you want
to thank Mr. Shang,
why don't you
fix his nose?
Will he let me?
He will.
Why?
Sai'er.
What are you up to this time?
[Jingsheng Hall]
Why are you here?
Where's the butler?
You're not supposed to do this.
I volunteered.
You let me freeload at your house
and pay me a salary.
I should do more work.
Mr. Shang.
Enjoy your bath.
I don't mind it.
But…
you're a girl after all.
It's not convenient.
You may leave.
No.
If I leave,
who will add hot water for you?
H-How about this?
Mr. Shang, don't worry.
I swear not to peek.
I'll be behind the curtain.
Call me if you need anything.
Enjoy your bath.
You…
Mr. Shang.
Don't you take off your mask
when you take a bath?
I once saw you
wearing it when sleeping.
Isn't it hard to breathe?
I'm used to it.
When I took off my mask last time,
were you scared?
No.
Why would I be scared?
I just felt a bit sorry for you
when I found out later
that you had no sense of smell.
Sorry?
You can't smell things,
so your sense of taste must've been impaired too.
No wonder you ate all the food
I made last time.
Actually, your cooking
is not bad.
Thank you, Mr. Shang.
Mr. Shang.
This is the best-selling sachet
at Blossom Beauty.
It smells great.
You can't smell it,
but I still think you can give it a try.
How does it smell?
It smells like…
It smells like gardenias
and cypress.
I wish I could smell it.
Do you mean it?
Mr. Shang,
my boss can treat facial injuries.
She can fix your nose.
You also think my nose is a problem?
No, no.
Don't get me wrong.
I…
I just want you to be able
to smell this world again.
Think about it.
After your nose is fixed,
you'll be able to smell
fragrant flowers
and delicious foods.
Isn't that great?
But no one's life
is perfect.
Thank you.
I'll just live with it.
Live with it?
How can you live with it?
You'll have regrets, Mr. Shang.
Mr. Shang.
I'll be honest with you.
Don't be mad.
It's not just for your sense of smell.
Actually, I also want to see
what you look like with a nose.
Mr. Shang?
Mr. Shang?
Mr. Shang!
Come in and help me.
He's out!
Hurry up, Boss.
He may wake up soon.
How much knockout drug did you use?
I put two taels of it
in the sachet.
Two taels?
That's enough to knock out a tiger.
He may sleep for two days straight.
Mr. Shang is stronger
and fiercer than a tiger.
Since you know he's fierce,
why did you do this?
You want me dead?
Boss, I assure you,
he wants this.
Please.
Hurry up.
I need to work tomorrow.
Dr. Yan, just do it.
Who are you two to rush me?
You're injured.
Why are you here?
And you.
Who invited you?
Be quiet.
You're not helping.
Dr. Yan.
Bieli lost his nose
partly because of me.
It's the regret of his life
and mine.
I hope he can find
his old self.
Boss, Boss.
His hand is moving.
Hurry up!
Hurry up.
Leave it to me.
