Lost You Forever (2023) s01e23 Episode Script

1
ADAPTED FROM TONG HUA'S ORIGINAL WORK,
LOST YOU FOREVER
Put on the mask.
Nobody will recognize you
while you enjoy yourself.
The Lirong family owns this casino
and their ancestors
were the Two-Headed Hound.
Do I have to wear it?
As you wish.
I'm Doggie Bei.
If you're beaten up
and thrown out by the Lirong family,
don't blame me for that.
Doggie Bei is quite nervous now.
Young lady.
Please be quiet.
I'm afraid of the Lirong family.
Kill him!
Hit him!
Come on.
Get him.
-Kill him.
-Get up.
Come on. Kill him.
Get up.
Keep going.
What bad luck.
-Let's go.
-Let's go.
Let's go.
What bad luck.
I told you
He won't last much longer.
Once the heart dies,
he will feel hopeless.
Why don't we make a bet?
On what?
Bet on who can arouse his hope.
What? Can't you?
Interesting.
You go first.
What are you doing here?
Thank you.
What's your name?
Don't be afraid.
You have to believe
life is worth living
for something wonderful
in this world.
Stop laughing.
It's your turn.
I won.
That's impossible.
You cheated.
You must know him.
I swear.
I met him for the first time today.
What did you say to him?
It's a secret.
What did you say to him?
If you hug me,
I'll tell you.
Beauty trap doesn't work on him,
but it works on me.
Forget it.
Fine, I'll tell you.
I'm not interested.
Are you sure?
Yes.
But I want to tell you.
I beg you.
Beg me?
All right. How are you going to beg me?
I'll hug you.
I'm willing to throw myself at you.
Fangfeng Bei, are you making fun of me?
Are you going to say it or not?
If not, I'll really get angry.
Fine, I'll tell you.
I told that slave
that I was once a slave in the arena,
but I survived.
You lied to him.
Hope is elusive.
Although he's locked in a cage,
he's very clever.
He won't easily believe what you said.
You must have done something else.
Because I talked to him
in the special language
of the demon slaves in the arena.
I heard even the slave owners
couldn't understand it.
How do you know it?
Maybe I was really a slave in the arena.
Who are you?
Who do you hope I am?
Our hearts beat at the same pace.
Right.
They're almost beating at the same pace.
You have to meet
with local managers and handle affairs
along the way.
You must be exhausted.
Is that my second brother?
Stop.
Bei.
Yiying?
It has been a long time.
This must be Master Qingqiu,
my famous future brother-in-law, right?
Nice to meet you.
This is my second brother.
He has always been casual like this.
Don't take it seriously.
May I know your name?
Fangfeng Bei.
Yiying's second brother.
If you want,
you can also call me Bei.
This lady is
Princess Jiuyao of Haoling.
Haven't you met her before?
Your Highness, please forgive me.
I didn't recognize you in the dark.
There's no need for formalities.
Bei, where are you living now?
The Tushan family has a residence here.
If you want,
you can live with us.
No need.
The residence is big without restrictions.
It would be my honor.
All right.
I can't refuse you.
However, I won't bother you tonight.
I have to take Xiaoyao back.
I'll move in tomorrow.
Where are you going?
I can give you a ride.
No, thank you.
Bei and I sat in the casino for hours.
Now we want to have a walk.
We will get going.
Let's go.
I heard Bei and Princess Jiuyao are close.
I was always skeptical.
I didn't expect it to be true.
Only someone like Princess Jiuyao
can disregard the family background
and do as she pleases.
Your Highness, I'm scared.
I think the guards are watching us.
It's all right. Don't look at them.
Let them pass.
We're out.
I told you this would work.
I still feel uneasy
about allowing Nian to go to Xiyan City.
If I don't let her go,
she'll be like a bird in a cage,
depressed all day.
Don't worry, Master.
Haitang has high spirit power
and those guards
will protect the princess.
Moreover,
Cangxuan and Princess Jiuyao
are in Xiyan City.
They will take care of Her Highness.
As a father,
I'm indulgent of my daughters, right?
Yes, you really are.
You always give them
what they want.
You're not indulgent of them at all.
Master, you're such a kind father.
They're lucky to be your daughters
or your people.
QI GARDEN
Jing,
please sit.
I'm sorry. My room is a bit messy.
I came quite unexpectedly.
I heard you have worked
as the Minister of River Transport.
Is everything going smoothly?
To be honest,
my two uncles try
to make things difficult for me.
All subordinates are acting
according to their intentions.
I can only do my best.
The Chishui Clan
knows the river transport well.
Perhaps you can ask Fenglong for advice.
I hope to see him again
and ask him for advice.
I heard you arrived
in Xiyan City last night.
I was planning to visit you later,
but you came early in the morning.
Is there anything urgent?
I hear Xiaoyao is living here.
Can you pass her a message for me?
I want to see her.
Unfortunately,
Xiaoyao said she missed our grandfather
and immediately went to Zhaoyun Peak.
She's away right now.
When will she be back?
I'm not sure about that.
Your Highness.
The princess is here.
Since Xiaoyao is here,
why didn't she come in?
It's Princess Nian, not Princess Jiuyao.
Xuan.
Xuan.
Since you have a visitor, I'll go back.
I'll visit you another day.
All right.
See you.
Sang, please see Jing out.
Are you surprised to see me?
Indeed, I'm surprised.
Actually, I've long wanted to see you,
but my father didn't agree.
He was afraid I'd cause trouble.
So I did a trick
and sneaked out.
It's not easy to get in and out
of Cheng'en Palace.
What do you mean?
Nothing.
Since you're here,
if anyone asks,
you can say you're Xiaoyao's friend.
Why can't I say I'm your friend?
I'm limited in ability right now.
If you say you're my friend,
you will be in danger.
However, if you say you're her friend,
you will be safe.
Don't worry.
I know I'm not in Haoling.
I won't cause you any trouble.
You've been no trouble for me.
You seem restless today.
Why are you suddenly here, Grandfather?
You could suddenly return
to Zhaoyun Peak last night.
Can't I suddenly come to see you?
Grandfather, please sit.
Let me see your hands.
Such thick calluses.
When girls practice archery,
they are afraid of having calluses,
so they wear specially-made gloves.
I have a different purpose.
They do it for hunting in the autumn,
while I do it to kill.
Would the enemy wait for me
to put on gloves before making a move?
You should find a good husband.
Before I die,
I can guarantee
you can marry any man you like.
Anyone is fine?
What if this man
is engaged?
What if this man
is your enemy?
What kind of man do you want to marry?
I have been through too much.
When other girls my age were in love,
I didn't even know what I was doing.
I was probably trying to survive.
Perhaps I have been alone for too long.
I just want to find someone
to accompany me,
but I'm too timid to trust anyone.
After all, even my mother abandoned me.
How could I believe
that a man wouldn't abandon me?
However,
I know I'm afraid
of men like you and my father.
Because in your hearts,
there will always be something
more important than women.
We aren't suitable to be husbands.
In this world,
if there is a man,
no matter what choices he faces,
I'm always his first choice.
No matter what happens,
he will never give up on me.
Then I'll spend my life with him.
It's difficult.
It's more difficult
than me conquering the world.
I know.
So I never thought about being in love.
I'm afraid once I think about it,
I'll lose myself.
Even if I feel restless,
I'll try to control myself.
You have already had the answer
to the question you just asked me.
If that man has a romance
with other women,
it proves that you aren't his first choice
in his heart.
If he chooses
to be the enemy of mine or Cangxuan,
it proves that you
are not important to him.
He can abandon you at any time.
ZHAOYUN HALL
Silly girl,
you think too much.
Well,
you don't have to figure out everything.
With your current status,
if you choose the right person,
it's not that hard
to have a happy marriage.
I know,
but that isn't me.
If I don't meet that man,
I won't marry in my life.
With my status,
I can enjoy so many interesting things
and beautiful sceneries.
Even without a husband,
I can still live a happy life.
All right.
Cangxuan can't be self-willed like you.
Well,
you can live as you wish.
RIVER TRANSPORT BUREAU, XIYAN CITY
Why are you still waiting here?
Hasn't your ship been allowed to pass?
If these goods rot on the ship,
we will all jump into the river.
-Right.
-That's right.
MAIN HALL
Your Highness.
They have waited for so long.
Why can't you let them pass?
We have to follow the rules.
They have been waiting for two days.
The ship is loaded with fresh goods.
If it's delayed, the loss will be heavy.
Well
Your Highness,
I didn't mean to make things difficult.
Everyone is waiting.
You just took over
the River Transport Bureau
and are not familiar with this.
If you break the rules,
all the boatmen will try to cut in.
Not only will it congest the river,
but it will also
cause shipwrecks and loss of lives.
How dare you?
Step back.
Many boatmen are demons who live by water.
They have a bad temper.
It's not easy to manage them.
Mr. Tushan, what brought you here?
My father said he wanted to find you
to discuss
the ship transport for next year.
I heard the ships haven't set off yet,
so I came to check it out.
These boatmen
Their goods are scheduled
to be sold to the Tushan family.
Don't worry.
I will deal with it right away.
Hurry up.
Thank you.
Not at all.
My family has been
running businesses for many years.
I'm using its power.
Anyway, thank you for your help.
Otherwise, I would have fallen
into my two uncles' trap.
They will say I'm incompetent
and destroying many families,
or they will say I caused a riot
and loss of lives.
Don't worry too much.
The day you achieve your ambition
will come.
I hope
that day will come soon.
ZHAOYUN HALL
Grandfather.
Your Majesty.
Take a seat.
Your Majesty.
I heard a lot about you from Xuan.
So to me,
you are like a familiar elder.
I have a request.
Say it.
Can I also call you "Grandfather"?
As long as your father doesn't mind,
of course you can.
Grandfather.
Zhoushan,
bring the Queen's jade bracelet.
Yes.
You have a sweeter mouth than Xiaoyao.
Cangxuan's grandmother wore it.
Xiaoyao has one
and this one is for you.
Do you like it?
Yes, thank you.
Since you're here,
stay here for a few more days.
I will.
Nian is here.
I think I should report it to Grandfather,
so I brought her to see him.
Since she often causes trouble,
you should let Grandfather know of her.
Don't underestimate Nian.
She knows when to be smart.
Now she's learning chess
from Grandfather.
I'll practice archery.
Anyway, she will be angry to see me.
I won't go greet her.
Are you avoiding Tushan Jing?
I'm not.
Fangfeng Bei is waiting for me.
I have to go find him.
Fangfeng Bei is a renowned playboy.
He knows how to indulge in pleasure.
I'm all right if you hang out with him,
but don't forget
the Fangfeng family
has sided with my uncles.
When you're with him,
don't let your guard down
and put yourself in danger.
Don't worry.
I won't forget the moment
he pointed the arrow at us.
Good.
Go ahead.
Is there anything you want to tell me?
No.
You just mentioned Tushan Jing.
Is it about him?
Actually, I lied.
I'm indeed mad at him
and avoiding him.
Did he tell you
that he wanted to see me?
Yes.
I do need his support now.
Can you meet him?
It's just a meeting.
What's the big deal?
Even if it's not for you,
I'll meet him sooner or later.
I'm such a terrible brother.
I asked you to hold your temper
and bow to other men.
If I refused to bow and felt wronged,
I would have died in the hands
of the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon.
Cangxuan, where are we now?
Zhaoyun Peak.
Yes.
We're at Zhaoyun Peak.
I see.
You seem very angry today.
Who are you?
I live in
my future brother-in-law's house,
seeing my sister every day.
Who do you think I could be
if not Fangfeng Bei?
If I find out you lied to me,
I'll shoot an arrow into your heart.
So who do you hope I am?
The friend
you want to poison?
Good.
I did teach you well.
You seem to be in a bad mood.
Why don't we skip practice today?
If I practice as I please,
I'll have many excuses
to skip it.
I might as well give up now.
Your shoulders are too tense.
Your arm is raised too high.
You really don't act like a princess.
You know it.
I'm a wild princess.
Why don't you quit being a princess
and wander around with me?
All right.
If you give up everything,
I'll go with you.
Don't try to fool me.
Don't think you're bolder than me.
QI GARDEN
Master Qingqiu, you're here again.
However, now is not a good time.
His Highness is away.
He won't be back until tonight.
Will the princess return with him?
No.
I have important matters
to discuss with His Highness.
Please let him know.
All right.
I'll come back in the evening.
The princess is already back.
Of course she won't return with him.
Is there anything else?
Can you take a message for me?
Tell the princess I want to see her.
All right. I'll tell her right away.
Please.
Prince Cangxuan is at Mount Xiyan.
Xiaoyao is resting in her room.
Sang told me you were here,
so I invited you in.
Her Highness
spent all morning practicing archery.
She needs to rest for a while
before entertaining guests.
Please take a seat.
I heard from my sister
that you've been visiting Prince Cangxuan.
His Highness is a master of chess.
He's a good rival.
I enjoy playing it with him.
My sister loves lively places.
Thank you for taking care of her.
She has been very popular in Xiyan City.
She often held parties
and had a great time.
You were resting,
so I invited Jing in without telling you.
Fortunately, you let him in
or I would have offended
Cangxuan's friend.
Master Qingqiu.
Cangxuan is at Zhaoyun Peak.
I'll send someone to ask him back.
If you have nothing else to do,
just sit here and wait.
If you have things to do, you can go back.
Xuan will come to you.
I have something to do with Bei later,
so I have to go.
Let's go.
Where are we going later?
We can go wherever you want.
I have to think about it.
All right.
Yes.
I do need his support now.
Can you meet him?
What's wrong?
I suddenly remembered
what Cangxuan asked me to do.
I can't hang out with you today.
Can we do it another day?
Sure.
If you have something to do,
let's hang out another day.
HIDES ONE'S NAME
AND REMAINS DISTINGUISHED
Cangxuan said you were looking for me.
What is this?
Is it a purple fish core?
I wanted to find you a red one.
This purple one isn't as precious,
but it's also hard to get.
I only found a purple fish core.
It's not easy to find this, right?
Not that hard.
Not that hard?
Even the wealthy Tushan family
only found a purple one.
When giving gifts to other girls,
you should say
you spend a lot of effort on this.
It will make your gift better.
No.
No other girls.
Only you.
Can I really
breathe in the water with this?
I tried it.
I could swim for a day and two nights.
But I have spirit power.
For your safety,
you'd better not swim
for more than 20 hours.
Did you stay underwater
for a day and two nights to test it?
Xiaoyao.
Are you all right?
I'm good.
I just
I just really hate you.
Every time I decide to give up on you,
you always find a way to soften me.
I'm sorry.
I know I shouldn't show up.
You're such a fool.
You don't know anything.
I don't understand
why people say you're clever.
Why did you come alone today?
Where is the beautiful girl
who came with you last time?
Can't I come alone?
Yes, you can.
Please sit for a while.
I'll serve you right away.
