Lost You Forever (2023) s01e34 Episode Script

ADAPTED FROM TONG HUA'S ORIGINAL WORK,
LOST YOU FOREVER
Your Highness,
Mr. Tushan is looking for you.
Jing!
Why are you all soaked?
Why are you standing here
and not coming in?
Come in with me.
Come on. Come in now.
I have taken Mr. Tushan
to meet Princess Xiaoyao
as per your order.
Okay, you may leave now.
Yes.
It's late.
You should rest.
The storm is raging
and the guest hasn't left yet.
How can I rest at ease?
That Master Qingqiu, seriously.
What urgent matter does he have
that he had to barge
into Mount Chenrong so late at night?
It can't be a good thing
since the storm is sweeping.
I should be happy.
But when I think of Xiaoyao,
I feel very upset.
What on earth happened?
My grandmother is ill.
She has been waiting for my return
and overusing her spirit power
over these years.
Now that her spirit power is exhausted,
she only has a few months left to live.
My grandfather passed away early.
So did my father.
For the sake of the Tushan family,
my grandmother has been struggling.
She has never enjoyed
a single day of peace.
She wants me to succeed
as the head of the Tushan family
in three days.
I
I can't refuse.
I understand.
I originally planned
to stay with you
whether Grandmother agreed or not.
But now
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
It's really okay.
Xiaoyao.
I've disappointed you again.
If you really abandon everything
so ruthlessly,
including your grandmother,
who has shown you great kindness,
even if it was for me,
you wouldn't be the Jing I like.
I'm sorry.
The shackles you can't break free of
are actually your gentleness.
It is this gentleness
that makes me like you.
MEMORIAL TABLET OF SHEN YUE
Mother.
You must feel very comforted
in heaven, right?
Do you know?
What insulted me the most today
is not what Grandmother said
about the Central Plains' clans
or that the Tushan family
only recognizes Jing.
But the fact that Jing regards
what I desperately strive for
as nothing.
I know you feel down.
But why do you torment yourself like this?
What Grandmother said
was indeed disheartening,
but we still have a chance to win.
A chance to win?
Is it by killing Tushan Jing
or the nine elders
and those clan leaders who support him?
Is that true?
Providence.
It's providence.
Mother, if you are watching from heaven,
please enjoy this great drama.
Are you thinking about Tushan Jing?
No.
I just want to enjoy the breeze here.
Can't you do so in Zijin Palace?
It's quiet here.
It's indeed too noisy
in the vast Zijin Palace,
where only the two of us live.
It's from my master.
It's for you to attend Tushan Jing's
succession ceremony as clan leader.
Father is so nice
for allowing me
to attend the ceremony properly.
Even if it has turned out this way,
do you still want to meet him?
After all, this is
a once-in-a-lifetime event for him.
No matter what,
I want to go and see it.
Attend it if you like.
For me,
only your happiness matters.
Don't worry.
Happiness brings us together
and sorrow sets us apart.
It's easy for us siblings to move on.
Would I really cry
over a man?
I hope that's the case.
As the auspicious time has come,
the ceremony begins.
As it is shown
by fate constantly,
alas, the clan leader
is virtuous and righteous.
Clan leader.
Clan leader.
Clan leader.
Clan leader.
Our next generations
follow our principles,
admire, and carry on
the clan leader's great achievements.
As Heaven sends an auspicious sign,
Heaven blesses Qingqiu Hill.
-As Heaven sends an auspicious sign,
-As Heaven sends an auspicious sign,
-Heaven blesses Qingqiu Hill.
-Heaven blesses Qingqiu Hill.
-As Heaven sends an auspicious sign,
-As Heaven sends an auspicious sign,
Such an auspicious celestial sign
doesn't appear at every clan leader's
ceremony of succession.
It seems that Tushan Jing's succession
as the clan leader
is a great blessing for the Tushan family.
-Heaven blesses Qingqiu Hill.
-Heaven blesses Qingqiu Hill.
The ceremony is over.
Xiaoyao.
Xiang Liu didn't save you for nothing.
He asked for the peak
of Mount Chenrong in exchange.
I didn't see you at the ceremony.
In your eyes,
who else could you see
besides Tushan Jing?
At the succession ceremony
of Chief Tushan,
should I look around
instead of looking at Tushan Jing?
I heard from my sister
that Tushan Jing didn't want
to be the clan leader.
If he really won't be the clan leader,
then with my sister's temperament,
she would probably think of a way
to cancel the engagement decently.
But now Tushan Jing
has become the clan leader.
My sister has endured for years,
so she won't give up.
It's Tushan Jing who should worry
about whether Fangfeng Yiying gives up.
Not me.
Fangfeng Yiying has nothing
to do with you,
but Tushan Jing
is intimately related to you.
You thought hope
was right in front of you,
but it turned out
to be getting further and further away.
Aren't you sad?
I've been used to bad luck
since I was a child.
No matter what good things happen,
I'm always subconsciously prepared
for them to fall apart.
No matter how touching the vows are,
I won't fully believe them.
I can't lie and say I'm not sad at all.
But I'm not that upset either.
Your personality is not very good.
No matter how joyful things are,
you're always waiting for sadness.
So I should cherish
the real joy at the moment.
Only that is true.
Princess.
Would you like to go with me
to find some real joy?
Why not?
I didn't expect the doggies
to run this business
right under the nose of the Tushan family.
The head of the Lirong family
and Tushan Jing aren't just acquaintances.
Without Tushan Jing's help in the dark,
they wouldn't be able
to run their business so well.
Jing seems to enjoy
making friends here and there,
even with the Two-Headed Dog.
Mind your words.
Don't keep saying "dog."
Stay away from me.
Don't get me involved
when the Lirong family gangs up on you.
I'll stay close to you
and get you involved.
Stop it, my lady.
Excuse me. Thank you.
Isn't that the young man
we saw in Xiyan City
four decades ago?
He made a deal with the slave master.
If he wins consecutively for 40 years,
the slave master will grant him freedom.
For 40 years?
Tonight is the last night.
As long as he can survive tonight,
he can be freed from slavery.
Winning consecutively for 40 years.
How did he make it?
Just like what you did
in the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon's cage.
It's nothing but following your heart,
endless patience,
a long wait,
as well as
never giving up
even for a faint hope.
What are you talking about?
What do you think I'm talking about?
-Get up!
-Get up!
-Get up!
-Get up!
Get up!
Get up and continue!
Stand up!
Get up!
Go for it!
Get up!
If you lose, I'll kill you!
Stand up!
You've been waiting for 40 years!
You'll be free by winning this!
Stand up!
Get on your feet!
Stand up now!
Stand up!
Stand up!
-Get up!
-Get him!
-Stand up!
-Get up!
Stand up!
Stand up!
Hurry. Stand up!
Get on your feet!
-All right
-All right.
All right.
He won!
He won!
Did you see it? He's free now.
He won!
You won!
Yes, he won.
He's free.
Wait a minute.
Just now,
I heard you telling me to stand up.
I remember you.
You gave me a hug.
I remember you too.
I'm glad you won.
Do you remember him?
Yes.
He watched me fight to the death.
Seven times.
I'm free now.
I can do whatever I want.
Can I come with you?
I don't need anyone.
What's your name?
They call me Slave Number 11.
May I give you a name?
Okay.
What about Zuo Er, for left ear?
If anyone mocks you
because you're missing an ear,
you don't need to care.
You should be proud
of your missing left ear.
My name is
Zuo Er?
Where are you planning to go?
I want to see the ocean.
I've heard it's vast,
like the sky.
I've never seen it.
If you have nowhere to go
after seeing the ocean,
go to Mount Chenrong
and look for a person named Cangxuan.
Tell him that I sent you
and he will give you a job.
My name is Xiaoyao.
Got it?
Mount Chenrong.
Cangxuan and Xiaoyao.
I remember it.
Here is the money I won by betting on you.
Take this money and go see the ocean.
He is gone. Why are you still in a daze?
Let's go.
When you escaped from the death arena,
it would be great
if it was I who saved you.
If I saved you,
I would only let you be Fangfeng Bei.
A free Fangfeng Bei.
Owing no one a favor
or gratitude.
Bearing no responsibility,
morality,
or duty.
You want to save me?
You're not worthy.
I am not saying Lord Hong Jiang
is not good,
I just think
you were born to be as free as
Shut up!
I heard you wanted to cancel the marriage.
Why?
Is Yiying not good enough for you
because you're the clan leader now?
Ms. Fangfeng is very nice.
-But
-Leave him. Let's go.
SMOKE AND ROSY CLOUDS
Xiaoyao.
Are you going to leave me?
I'm not going to leave you.
Really?
When I saw you become
the clan leader of Tushan,
I did feel a bit lost and hesitant.
I thought
we were at a crossroad
and took different paths.
But I don't feel it now.
Even Zuo Er could persevere for 40 years
for such a faint hope.
How could we give up so easily?
Even if the roads are different,
they are still made by people.
How can we, two living people,
be confined by the roads?
Xiaoyao.
As for me,
I am selfish and heartless.
My first reaction
is always self-preservation.
I'm unwilling to trust others.
I always think
people's hearts are changeable.
It's not easy for you
to tolerate me.
I've said it before.
I'm willing to trust
and make efforts first.
Tushan Jing is determined
to cancel the marriage for Xiaoyao.
Is that true?
Yes.
For Xiaoyao,
the Tushan family
will definitely support Cangxuan.
The Xiling family and Cangxuan
are blood relatives.
So that goes without saying.
The Chishui family's attitude is unclear,
but Chishui Fenglong is already
on Cangxuan's side.
If he succeeds as the clan leader,
then among the Four Great Clans,
three are already on Cangxuan's side.
The situation is not in our favor.
The Four Great Clans
have always played it safe.
They are unwilling to get involved
in royal disputes.
Even if they support Cangxuan,
they dare not be blatant.
But their attitude would influence
the Central Plains' clans.
With their support,
naturally, there will be clans
who dare to be blatant.
Cangxuan has been trying
to win over the Central Plains' clans,
thinking himself fully fledged.
But I want to see him fall
because of these people.
Deyan, do you mean
It's time to make use of the mole
we planted in Mount Chenrong 40 years ago.
Zijin Palace is where
the Kings of Chenrong
live and handle affairs.
It's the symbol of Central Plains.
So all clans
attach great importance to it.
The main hall, Daming Hall,
is even more significant
and extraordinary.
You must be extra careful.
No omissions are allowed.
Understood.
We will be extremely careful
and won't let Your Highness down.
Please be rest assured.
For the palace renovation,
I have been doing it for decades.
As the renovation of Daming Hall
has been discussed again and again,
all details are clear in my mind.
Thank you all.
When the great work is completed,
you will definitely be rewarded.
SHEN SHUTONG, FAN ZHANG
Your Highness, this is the day decided
by Lord Chenrong
for Daming Hall's blessing ceremony.
Please review it.
The schedule is a bit tight.
This is the day chosen
by the six major clans
and the Chenrong clan
after days of discussion.
The schedule is indeed a bit tight,
but it is an auspicious day.
Your Highness, please bear with us.
All right.
I will urge my subordinates
to speed up the work.
CHENRONG MANSION
Jing.
You clearly know that Fenglong
doesn't welcome you.
Why are you still visiting?
I'll wait for him to drive me away.
Won't you say something?
He can be very unreasonable at times.
Tushan Jing, you still have
the guts to come here.
You can give me three punches.
If you continue, I won't be polite.
Polite?
When have you been polite?
-Fenglong.
-Tushan Jing!
Tushan Jing!
Fenglong.
I'll teach you a lesson
for hiding things from me.
Let men handle their own business.
My brother's spirit power is strong.
If they really fight,
even three Jing can't hold him back.
Don't worry. No one will die.
How dare you still come?
Fenglong!
Are you sure no one will die?
Maybe
they'll be bedridden for a few months.
I remember when we were young,
you were polite,
and always dressed neatly.
Unlike me,
messy like a monkey.
But once, I insulted Hou and you heard it,
you picked up the zither and hit me.
We had a big fight in the mud.
I could fight better than you,
but you fought desperately,
and forced me to swear
never to insult Hou again.
You still remember it so clearly.
Since then,
I've started to envy Hou.
If only I had a brother
who would fight for me.
One day, my aunt suddenly told me
to get along with you like siblings.
I suddenly realized
we were cousins after all.
As long as I'm willing,
we can be good brothers.
Fenglong.
All these years,
I've been telling you all my ambitions
and selfish desires,
and you never think I'm daydreaming.
Even when I told you
I want to break the rules
of the Four Great Clans,
you just laughed and replied
that rules are made by people,
and naturally,
they can be broken by people.
I asked you if you would help me.
I don't want to get into any trouble,
but I won't sit back.
Right.
That's what you said.
All these years,
no matter what I'm pondering on,
you would understand and help me.
I'm not as good as you say.
Actually, I'm not angry
that you stole Xiaoyao.
I'm angry that you don't treat me
as your brother.
Why didn't you tell me?
I had fallen for Xiaoyao
before she was known as Xiaoyao.
You would definitely blame me
for not telling you earlier,
but I really had no way to tell you.
Many times,
I feel conflicted.
I think I'm not good enough for her.
You and Fangfeng Bei are better choices.
No matter which of you
gets close to Xiaoyao,
I think it's good for her.
Maybe it's better than being with me.
I often tell myself to give up.
But I really can't.
What do you mean
you're not compatible with Xiaoyao?
Tushan Jing.
When did you become so timid and useless?
Did the torture of Tushan Hou
soften your bones?
Listen to me.
My brothers are the best.
Forget one Xiaoyao,
you deserve even ten Xiaoyao.
Do you still consider me your brother?
I know you consider me as a brother
and will definitely give in to me,
so I dared to brazenly ask for her
in your territory.
You just said
you fell in love with Xiaoyao
before she became Xiaoyao.
What does it mean?
Actually, I knew her a long time ago
when she wandered about
in the mortal world.
So you've been fooling us all along.
Do you think I wanted to?
What do you think I felt
watching you try various ways
to please Xiaoyao?
You deserved it.
-Are we cool?
-Not yet.
A few more punches?
If news spread
that I've beaten up
the head of the Tushan family,
no one will believe it.
As long as you can calm down,
you can continue to hit me.
After all, I can't win.
Close your eyes.
It's done.
Is this how the Light Dance Pills
are wasted?
Be wary of retribution.
Close your eyes.
All right.
Look at them.
So they've had feelings for each other
under our noses.
No wonder the song
Xiaoyao sang the other day
was appealing
and full of affection.
You dared to do it then,
but you're shy now?
I'm not.
Fenglong, why not invite Cangxuan?
So we could stop her endless chatter.
Jing, you
Are you bullying me to help Xiaoyao?
We've already sent a message to Cangxuan
to discuss a serious matter.
Once Jing teases you, you become silly.
Now that Xiaoyao has a big supporter,
I dare not bully her anymore.
Don't worry. Your supporter is here too.
This is the first time
I've seen you joke with others like this.
Jing, you're finally back
to your old self.
You two are really capable.
One is the head of the clan.
The other is the future head of the clan.
Neither of you cares about propriety.
Don't you want to see anyone?
-Don't you count as someone?
-Don't you count as someone?
