You've deprived Yaoli of a chance to be reunited with her family...
because of your self-interests
Doesn't it prick your conscience?
I should thank you for...
taking such good care of her all these years
I'm sorry
Don't leave me, Auntie!
Don't go!
Ke has evidence of my past criminal wrongdoing
He blackmailed me into giving him $500,000. I killed him unintentionally
What was the feud between Ke and Dad?
I guess the only person...
who knows all about it is Uncle Chen
So you are the one who kidnapped Yaoli
Move in!
Police!
Freeze!
We have sufficient evidence of your involvement in the kidnapping of Yaoli
Please come with us to the police station
Move it!
Thanks. Good job
Mr Huang
It will do you no good to remain silent
We've got all the evidence
I'd advise you to tell us all that you know
The penalty for kidnapping is the death sentence
But if you co-operate with us,
the judge may give you a light sentence
Yes
I was the mastermind behind the kidnap
Now, tell me... Why did you do it?
My elder brother and I built up our business
Do you know how much I had helped him?
I say this with certainty
If not for me, he would not have been so successful
I, too, have a share in the company
But little did I expect him to...
disregard our brotherly ties
Even after he was diagnosed with cancer,
he refused to let me assume control of the company
He also made a will,
leaving his entire property to...
his daughter
You collaborated with Zhao Tiancheng to kidnap Yaoli...
not because of the ransom
You wanted her dead, am I right?
If Yaoli had died,
my brother would have no heir
Once my brother passes on,
the company would then be under my control
You also hired someone to run over Madam Zhang and Yaoli, didn't you?
That's right
I had thought that Yaoli was dead
But I was shocked that...
she appeared a few years later
Yaoli's return meant that I would lose everything
That's why...
she must die
Open the door
Wanyu
I'm sorry
Let's go
I've been in high spirits lately
I eat and sleep well
I go into a deep sleep after taking your medicine and...
I dream a lot
Dreaming and stress are interlinked
One's psychological well-being...
may be interpreted by one's dreams
Do you want to know what I dreamt of?
I dreamt of you
I dreamt that...
you and I...
That's enough. No need to elaborate
You're psychologically healthy
What were you thinking of?
I was going to say that we were playing an online game
You were not my match and I killed you off
Looks like you're managing your psychological problem well
Of course. I also plan to enrol in a night class...
to enrich myself
That's good
A fulfilling life leaves you little time to indulge in wild thoughts
Pauline
Yes?
Same prescription as the previous one
All right, Dr Koo
By the way, as from next week,
Dr Chan will take over your case
Hang on... Dr Chan?
Dr Chan is an excellent psychiatrist and my good friend
Are you handing my case over to another psychiatrist because...
I've expressed my liking for you?
Don't do that!
That's not the case
I'm transferring your case to Dr Chan...
for your own good
If so, don't transfer my case to another psychiatrist
If you insist on doing so,
I'm telling you,
I'll stop seeing a psychiatrist
You know me
I mean what I say
After all, you don't care about me anymore
Just let me rot
All right, all right, you can continue to see me
But your appointment next week has to be postponed because...
I'm going overseas tomorrow
I'll be back only two weeks later
You're going overseas?
Where are you going?
Macau
Macau?
I heard that it has the world's highest bungee jump
I've always wanted to have a go at it
I'm going there to work, not to have fun
I'm referring to myself
You're not thinking of...?
You've guessed it
I'd like to go to Macau with you
No
Why not?
No, and that's it
Don't try to go there secretly
If you do that,
I'll make sure you rot
Okay... I'll do as you say
Shall we have dinner together tonight?
It's settled
See you tonight
Sorry, I hope you didn't wait too long?
It's okay. Busy at the clinic?
Someone was holding me back
Order something
A glass of iced water
I don't suppose I know that person?
Ke'er is a nice girl
Give her a chance
Stop being sarcastic
Why did you ask to meet me?
Oh yes,
I'm leaving for Macau tomorrow to attend a special meeting
I'll probably be there for some time
If you encounter any sticky problem,
and need to consult a psychiatrist, approach this friend of mine
He's also an experienced psychiatrist
Thanks
Is this why you wanted to meet me?
These are my house keys
When I'm away,
there's no one to feed my fish
I need your help to take care of them
Me?
Will you do it?
I'm not related to you
It will be awkward for me to enter your house
As far as I'm concerned, you're not a total stranger to me
I trust you
It's not April Fools' Day
Where's Wenjie?
Are you in cahoots with Wenjie to make a fool out of me?
Anni
Are you living in hope for a reconciliation with Wenjie?
I'm sorry
I know that was a blunt question,
but I can understand how you feel
I went through a heartbreaking relationship once,
and loved a woman whom I will never forget
I haven't been able to let go,
but continue to be mired in the memory
And the memory has erected a wall around me that...
keeps people out
And I can't get out either
You and I are in the same situation
My situation is different
You're dwelling in the past while I'm living for the future
But the future you're referring to...
could be a figment of your imagination
What's your point?
Anni
I hope you'll give me a chance,
and give yourself a chance,
to start afresh by letting go of our past
What I'm saying comes from the bottom of my heart
I'm serious
Yongyan, this is all too sudden. I...
You don't have to answer me now
Give it careful thought
When I return from Macau,
it's still not too late to give me your answer
...but continue to be mired in the memory
The memory has erected a wall around me that...
keeps people out
And I can't get out either
You and I are in the same situation
Anni,
I hope you'll give me a chance, and give yourself a chance,
to start afresh by letting go of our past
I never expected that the culprit who kidnapped my daughter is...
my brother-in-law
I foolishly trusted him,
and even handed the management of the company to him
Stop blaming yourself
Sometimes the person you least expect to betray you turns out to be a family member
He betrayed my trust in him
For the sake of seizing the family property,
he had no qualms about harming his niece
Thank goodness you found out in time,
otherwise, we would have been in great danger
Wenjie's contribution is by no means small
Without his help, we wouldn't have solved the case so soon
I didn't do much
His guilt made him give himself away
It's over now
You can return to Penang
Won't you consider what I had proposed to you when we last met?
I appreciate your kind thought,
but I'm happy with the status quo
So be it
I don't want you to find me annoying
However, if you have any problems, feel free to approach me
I'll be glad to help you
Thank you
Yaoli, your mouth is...
What's the matter, Yaoli?
I'm done
I don't understand why our relationship is so tense
I am her mother
She left you at the age of four. It's not surprising she feels distant from you
Spend more time with her. She will accept you eventually
I hope so
By the way, when are you returning to Penang?
Tomorrow
So soon?
Yaoli was confined in the house for a long time
She had no chance to have fun outside
There are a number of attractions here
Take her out for sightseeing
You're right
Yaoli, let's stay here for a few more days
You asked Mdm Zhang to stay here for a few more days to take Yaoli out
Do you have a reason for doing so?
I feel that Huang Wanren admitted to his crime too readily
Why do you feel that way?
I need to make a trip to Penang to investigate further
Penang?
Yaoli, are you having fun?
Yes
What would you like for dinner?
I haven't thought about it
Never mind, think about it and let me know
Hello...!
Shake my hand and let's be friends
Would you like a balloon, little girl?
Yes
Thank you
You're welcome
May I go to the washroom?
Sure. Make your own way there
Mdm Zhang and her daughter are at the entrance of the cafe
Okay, I see them
Uncle Chen, stay alert and keep a close eye on the surroundings
Roger
Penang
Here's the document you've asked for
Thanks
This is the will that Mr Huang amended shortly before his death
What did he amend?
Let me explain
Mr Huang willed all his property to a trust fund he set up...
for Mdm Zhang to obtain support for her living expenses...
over a period of 10 years
But if his daughter, Yaoli, is found within that period,
and proven to be Mr Huang Wansheng's biological daughter,
mother and daughter will inherit his entire fortune
Otherwise, Mdm Zhang cannot inherit Mr Huang's property
Jason, Yaoli may be in danger. Go find her!
Yaoli!
Mummy!
It's all right...
Thank you
It's okay
Mdm Zhang
Please come with me to the police station to assist with investigations
We suspect that you were involved in the kidnap of Yaoli
Madam, have you made a mistake?
Why have you arrested me when I didn't commit any crime?
The errant driver has admitted culpability
He said that you paid him to run over Yaoli
Nonsense
Why would I want to kill Yaoli, my daughter?
Jason, show Mr Huang's will to her
Are you surprised that...
we managed to obtain the will from Mr Huang's lawyer and...
discovered your motive for murder?
That's nonsense. I'll wait for my lawyer to come here
Mr Huang Wansheng had amended his will just before he died
In accordance with his wish,
upon his death,
his property shall go into a trust fund...
in which you can only draw a basic living allowance...
for a period of 10 years
You can only inherit his fortune after 10 years
But if your daughter, Yaoli,
is found within that period,
and proven to be the biological daughter of both of you,
you and your daughter will inherit his property immediately
As you said,
if I found my daughter, I would inherit the property
All the more I have no reason to kill my daughter
Of course you have a reason
Yaoli is not Huang Wansheng's biological daughter
You thought your daughter was dead
You didn't expect her to appear out of the blue
But when she did,
all it would take was a DNA test to...
prove that she is not related to Huang Wansheng by blood
You would have ended up with nothing
That's your motive for murder
Mdm Zhang, you can remain silent
We can also wait for your lawyer to turn up
But I must tell you this
We've arranged for Yaoli to undergo a DNA test
The results will be out soon and the truth will come to light
We have lots of time
When you're ready to confess, I'll come back
Let's go
I did it
Why did Huang Wanren take the rap for you?
Your relationship with him isn't so straightforward
What's the truth?
Ten years ago,
I was Huang Wanren's private secretary
He was really nice to me
I liked him too
A pity he was already married at the time
Although the couple's relationship was strained,
Wanren couldn't bring himself to divorce her
I chose to be his mistress,
to be together with him
Although it was a clandestine love affair,
we were so happy together
But it wasn't long before...
rumours surfaced in the company
Fearful that his wife would find out about our affair,
Wanren was forced to transfer me out of his office
That was why...
I became the secretary of his elder brother, Wansheng
At the same time, however,
Wanren and I carried on with our affair because...
we truly loved each other
As I was working closely for Wansheng,
he began to take a liking to me,
and courted me
Wansheng was rich and influential
Would any woman reject him?
I admit I was materialistic
I was together with him for the money
But Wansheng was no saint either
I was but...
a plaything to him
He had no intention of marrying me at all
So, Yaoli's father is Huang Wanren?
During that time,
I was really feeling down
I was really unhappy
Wanren was unable to keep me company every day,
so I was drinking at the pub every night
It was one of those nights that...
I had a one-night stand with someone and...
got pregnant
In order to marry into a wealthy family,
I lied to Wansheng that...
I was pregnant with his child
He was delighted on hearing that
Wansheng had always wanted a child
He didn't suspect anything at all
He even promised to marry me
I had thought I could settle down as a rich man's wife
Unfortunately,
when Yaoli was four years old...
Hello, Vincent?
I just collected my medical report
The doctor says that my chances of having a child are slim
I suspect Yaoli isn't my daughter
Find out for me
And no one is to know about this
Keep it a secret
Wansheng was beginning to suspect that Yaoli wasn't his daughter
But to spare himself the embarrassment,
he refrained from doing a DNA test in case news of it leaked
So, he hired a private investigator
When I overheard his telephone conversation,
I was scared stiff
If the truth was exposed,
Wansheng would deal with me severely
To avoid suspicion,
you collaborated with Zhao Tiancheng to kidnap Yaoli
Our plan was to abduct Yaoli and...
have her raised somewhere else
But Zhao Tiancheng was a scoundrel
After collecting the ransom,
he was afraid that his identity would be exposed
He wanted to silence Yaoli
I regretted approaching him to carry out my plan
At the time, I really thought that Yaoli was dead
I was absolutely devastated
But on the other hand,
I was thankful that my secret was not exposed
Finally, Wansheng was dying
I had thought that his property would soon be mine
But little did I expect him...
to alter his will just before he died
Even at the moment of death,
he still didn't trust me
For the sake of money, you wanted to sacrifice your daughter
You're really vicious
Maybe Yaoli shouldn't have been born at all
What did I do wrong? Why are you abandoning me?
Mum! Mum!
Don't go, Mum!
Mum!
You've finally called me Mum
You didn't do anything wrong, Yaoli
I'm the one who made a mistake
I'm not fit to be your mother
Take good care of yourself
Mum...!
What made you suspicious of Mdm Zhang?
No one would have imagined...
that a mother would kill her own daughter
As we were taking Huang Wanren away outside the interview room,
we met Mdm Zhang
I'm sorry
Let's go
Mdm Zhang is usually calm and composed
But she seemed downhearted that day
She ought to be mad at Huang Wanren,
but her body language didn't suggest any resentment towards him
That's why I deduced that their relationship was questionable
That's how you saw through them?
In Penang, I found out that Huang Wansheng was colour-blind
He couldn't drive at all
At the lawyer's office, I learnt about Huang Wansheng's will
It occurred to me then that...
Mdm Zhang could have masterminded the kidnapping
You even noticed the details?
I was hoping that I was wrong
If only it weren't true
Yaoli was abandoned by her parents
Youlin, who dotes on her, is in jail
I feel so sorry for Yaoli for having to face these cruel facts at her age
People who are unrelated to Yaoli are kinder to her instead
What exactly is it that bonds one person to another?
There's no answer to that question
My concern is,
what's going to happen to Yaoli?
I've contacted her relatives in Penang...
to see who's willing to be responsible for her
That's good
Hopefully, she can start life anew
How was work today?
I have been in Macau for three days
Besides attending meetings,
I have been spending most of my time in the hotel
I had some time for myself today, so I went out for a stroll in the streets
Macau Fisherman's Wharf is really beautiful
Couples come here for a stroll
Looking at them holding hands and chatting happily,
honestly speaking, filled me with envy
And then I thought of you
If you were by my side,
I would have someone to enjoy this beautiful scene together
Boss, I'm going out to buy something
Sorry to trouble you
It's okay
I'm not working today, and I treat it as a form of exercise
You should spend your time dining with Anni
Not another one
Seriously speaking,
can you bring yourself to give up the relationship?
For some things, you can't turn back the clock
I understand that
But I can tell that you still have a place in her heart
I stress this again. She initiated the break-up
Besides, we agreed that both of us are not suitable for each other
If I'm with her out of sympathy,
I think that's not fair to her
Don't worry, Anni will find a good man
What's wrong? Are you all right?
It's nothing serious, just a headache
You've been having headaches lately. Do you want to see a doctor?
No need. Maybe it's because I'm not sleeping well
I'm fine
Are you sure?
Okay, one more box to go
Xuezhi
Sandy
I thought it was you
It really is you
What are you doing here?
This is my shop
Your shop?
Aren't you capable?
I'm doing okay
We hadn't seen each other for ages
It must have been over ten years?
Thereabout
How have you been?
Not bad
Your friend?
Hi -Hello
Shall we go for tea, Sandy?
Sure
Sorry, please tend the shop for me
No problem. Go ahead
Bye -Bye
Thanks
Well, how are you?
Of course I'm well
It's been a long time since we last met,
yet you haven't changed a bit
I remember when we were in the orphanage,
you loved to look at plants and flowers
And now, you own a flower shop
Yes
I haven't changed much
By the way, what are you doing here?
I came back for a university friend's wedding and a holiday
When are you leaving?
Not so soon. I'll probably be here for another week
You know something, Xuezhi?
Father Wilson retired several years ago
He's living in his hometown now
How is he?
I met him last year. He is okay
Visit him if you can
All right
Do you still keep in touch with Shirley and the others?
How I missed our days in California!
I was so happy there. Those were the good old days
Xuezhi, do you still remember Ricky,
who had a crush on you?
That's so long ago. I don't remember it anymore
You don't remember it? Are you sure?
The dashing man I saw in the flower shop
Who is he? Your boyfriend?
Sort of
You are lucky...
to have such a handsome man for your boyfriend
When are you going to introduce a guy to me?
Would you need my help when you have such a wide social circle?
We finally met after all these years, yet you're so sarcastic to me
What's your handphone number?
I've only been here recently
I haven't got a handphone yet
Why don't you give me your email address?
I'll email it to you
Okay
Here's my email address. Remember to contact me
All right
Hello?
What took you so long to call me?
That's right
Wenjie -Coffee
How's the headache? Do you feel much better now?
Much better
If you suffer another attack,
go for a check-up at the hospital
Okay
Oh yes, it was the first time I saw that friend of yours this afternoon
How did you get to know her?
She was my classmate in the US. We had not met for a long time
An old friend?
Then why didn't you ask her to have dinner here?
She's only here on transit, and will be leaving tonight
What a pity! I had wanted to ask her...
if my sister ever had a boyfriend
You can ask me
Tell me then
No
Impossible
I can't believe my pretty sister had no suitors
I didn't fancy them
Were your expectations too high?
What are you trying to do?
Be my matchmaker? Don't do anything silly
All right, go to bed early
Goodnight
Come in
Not sleeping yet?
Anni, I have something to ask you
What is it?
Is Wenjie very busy lately?
No idea
Then why hasn't he been here for dinner lately?
Mum, I've told you umpteen times that...
it's over between Wenjie and me
You must accept the fact
Will you and Dad please stop trying to get us to reconcile?
No way will we get back together again, okay?
No way
Are you seeing another guy then?
No
No?
I've noticed that you've been texting...
all the time
Sometimes you even smile foolishly when you're texting
Don't think I can't tell
Is that so?
Yes. Out with it!
Someone is interested in me
Really?
Why are you so surprised?
I'm not surprised, but elated
Tell me, what's his name? How old is he?
What's his occupation? Where does he live?
Who is in his family?
Why are you so excited?
Of course I'm excited
I want to ascertain...
if you should be seeing this guy
Tell me, how far have you gone in the relationship?
Gosh... Help...!
Have you accepted him?
I can't hear you...!
I can't hear!
Quick, tell me!
No
Why not?
Mum, what do you take me for?
I've just broken up with Wenjie,
and you expect me to fall for another guy now?
Surely not?
Where love is concerned, you can never tell
Nobody can guess what's going to happen next
Give it a try
Maybe both of you will hit it off
This is my dinner in Macau. What are you doing?
Do you miss me? So boring to have dinner alone. I missed you
Looks like my precious daughter is...
smitten with this guy
I'm not
No?
Bring this guy home if you can, so I can meet him
Mum...!
All right, I'll leave your room
I don't want to be in the way when you exchange love messages
Stop peeping and go downstairs!
What's up?
I don't want you to disturb our daughter and ruin everything
Ruin everything?
Someone is wooing her and things are going smoothly
Really? When did the relationship start?
Some kind of father you are!
Didn't you observe the little things she does?
She texts non-stop while having her meals
I did notice it, but I thought she was communicating with her friends
Are you saying that our daughter is going steady?
I'm not sure
She refused to give me a definite answer when I asked her
Ask her when you can
At the same time, persuade Anni to bring her new beau home
Is that advisable?
Our daughter is old enough to make her own decisions
Let's leave the relationship in her own hands
Don't you know your daughter's character?
She hasn't got over her relationship with Wenjie
She's finally interested in another guy
If we don't lend her a helping hand,
she may lose this guy
Opportunity knocks only once
Do you wish to be a grandfather?
I certainly do
Then you must co-operate with me
I will
That green piece is nice
The colour doesn't match my skin tone
Miss, you asked me to come shopping with you to offer my opinion
But you never agree with any of my suggestions
I thought you had a good eye for fashion,
and could offer some constructive comments
How would I know that isn't the case?
Shop on your own next time
You will not come with me next time
By the way, aren't you supposed to register for night class?
What's your decision?
I plan to study a foreign language
Maybe I'll major in Japanese, with Korean as my minor
You've become so diligent all of a sudden
Of course I'm doing it on account of Yongyan
I want to prove to him that I'm a sensible girl
Aren't you ever going to give up?
As long as he doesn't have a girlfriend, I still stand a chance
I take my hat off to you
Well, what do you think of this blouse?
I'll try it on, okay?
Go on
Don't you remember me?
We met at Xuezhi's flower shop
You're Xuezhi's friend, aren't you?
What's your relationship with that girl?
She is my boss's daughter. Why?
So, you are a ladies' man
You have a pretty girlfriend,
but you're two-timing her
Is there a misunderstanding? Xuezhi and I are not a couple
You won't admit it? Xuezhi said so herself
She said so?
Stop pretending
May I ask how long you've known Xuezhi?
Xuezhi and I grew up in an orphanage. We're as close as sisters
I will punish anyone who bullies her
Does Xuezhi know about you and that girl?
Sorry, you said you and Xuezhi grew up in an orphanage
What's the name of the orphanage and where is it?
It's St John's Church Orphanage in California
Don't you know?
Welcome!
Deliver it -Okay
I'm going off
What's up? You're so free
My boss gave me half a day off to keep his daughter company
What's up?
Do you remember telling me that you lived in an orphanage as a child?
You made up the story, right?
Yes
I was afraid to acknowledge you and Mum at the time
Something crossed my mind
Although Dad and Mum are divorced,
he is still my father
To be honest, I do miss him sometimes
My only regret is that I didn't get to see him for the last time
It's the thought that counts
I believe Dad wouldn't blame you
I'm thinking of visiting California to pay my last respects to Dad
Could you go with me?
All right
But I'm busy lately. Could we discuss it some other time?
Okay
I'm going to get something
At St John's Church Orphanage in the USA...
10 years ago,
there were indeed two female residents, Feng Xuezhi and Sandy
I've checked with the Superintendent
He said that the priest in charge back then has retired
Moreover, the Superintendent took over the orphanage only a few years ago,
so he doesn't know anything about the two girls
You're also not clear about their history and background?
I visited the retired priest and...
showed him a recent photograph of your sister
He recognised her immediately
He said that Feng Xuezhi was abandoned by her parents
She was sent to the orphanage at the age of one and...
had been living there...
until she completed her secondary school education
This is a childhood photograph of her
It was taken when she was six or seven
Are you certain that this is her childhood photo?
The priest handed it to me
I've also verified it with the documents provided by the orphanage
No mistake about it
Wenjie!
Dinner is ready. Come and eat
Mum is still busy and has asked us to go ahead without her
Wenjie!
What's the matter? Are you ill?
I'm fine
Then what's wrong?
Feeling lousy?
It's Dad's birthday tomorrow
Be careful what you say
Mum is always in low spirits on this date
Don't mention Dad, or she will grieve
I'm certainly aware of that
Don't worry, I'll be careful
Let's have dinner
What on earth is the matter?
It isn't Dad's birthday tomorrow
If you were really Huixin, you would have known that
Who on earth are you?
Why are you impersonating Huixin?
I beg your pardon?
Impersonating?
You're an orphan. You have no family!
Father Wilson gave this photo to me
You and Sandy grew up in an orphanage, am I right?
Please hear me out. It's not what you think
Tell me
What's your motive for impersonating Huixin? Tell me!
Let go of me!
Why did you lie to me? Why did you lie to me?
Please believe me! I just want to help her!
I just want to help you all! Please believe me!
Help us in what? Tell me!
Please believe me...!
Why lie to me? -I just want to help you all!
I just want to help you all! -Why lie to me?
Please believe me!
Tell me!
Xuezhi! Xuezhi!
Xuezhi!
I did a brain scan on the patient
That's the location of the tumour
The tumour that's pressing against the nerve plus...
the fact that she was emotionally unstable caused her to pass out
Is surgery necessary?
The position of the tumour poses a surgical risk
If we go ahead with the surgery,
I'm afraid there's only less than 10% chance that she will survive
Why is this happening?
Any other solutions?
At the moment, she can only rely on medications
We will explore alternative treatment methods
Mr Liang, I must point out that...
the patient may experience short-term memory loss
That's a normal response
Therefore, you must not agitate her again
Otherwise, the tumour pressing against the nerve...
may grow or burst
Her condition would be hopeless then
How do you feel, Huixin?
I feel much better now
When you fainted for no reason,
I was scared stiff
Why did you pass out suddenly?
Did I?
Don't you remember it?
Are you sure you don't remember a thing?
