- Episode 19 -
Why do you have that picture?
So... you still remember her?
Answer my question!
Why do you have that picture?
Haven't you already guessed?
Wu Julan, do I look a lot like her?
When I was very little, the elders at home told me
that I look a lot like an ancestor.
Later on, I happened to find her diary.
This picture was kept inside the diary.
From that time on, your story was imprinted deeply on my heart.
I watched you two meet and spend time together in the story.
I watched you two hurt each other and sacrifice for each other.
Sometimes I feel, when I see the picture, that I'm seeing myself.
That's why when I saw that video, I rushed hurriedly to look for you.
Wu Julan!
Don't make me lose you, okay?
Don't leave me!
Wu Julan,
Bai Yihan did so much for you. She even died for you.
How could you fall in love with another woman?
Men really aren't dependable!
Stinky Wu Julan! I shouldn't have bought water for you!
I shouldn't have taken you in either! I should have let you die of thirst!
That's not right! Why am I leaving?
They're the ones with a problem!
Dry your tears first.
I'm sorry. I know it's very selfish of me to think this way.
Bai Yihan isn't here any more. You couldn't possibly love her alone.
Brother Julan, don't be angry with me.
Let go, let go, let go!
Don't you know that there's a reason why men and women can't be too intimate?
Michelle, I took you in out of the goodness of my heart, and introduced friends to you, too!
But now you're going to steal my boyfriend?
And you, Wu Julan! How long have we been together?
You're just going to break up with me? How can you behave so cruelly and wrongly towards me?
Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo, you've misunderstood.
Brother Julan didn't do anything wrong against you.
There's nothing between us.
You shut up! If there's nothing going on, why were you hugging so tightly just now?
It's my fault.
I kept the truth from you.
Actually, I didn't come for the sashimi feast.
I've known about Wu Julan for a long time now.
I came this time to see if he's living well.
What does that mean? You two knew each other long ago?
My great grandmother had an older sister named Bai Yihan.
Brother Julan's jade piece that he never puts down
was from Bai Yihan.
Is she telling the truth?
She really is your ex-girlfriend's descendant?
Bai Yihan did have a younger sister.
You like eating spicy food. Eat some more.
Eat this. Don't you love sweet and sour food the most?
Okay.
Brother Julan, if I didn't guess wrong,
the one who really likes sweet and sour food is Bai Yihan.
You slowly started liking the taste because of her influence, right?
You're right.
I didn't imagine that your taste wouldn't change in all these years.
Stop eating! This fish tastes disgusting!
Let me help you.
There's no need. You're a guest, you shouldn't do these things.
But... I don't wish for you to treat me as a guest.
Just let me help you do something.
Excuse me.
Ouch! Brother Julan.
It's not bleeding, it should be fine.
Do you need something?
You said you came to see if Wu Julan is living well or not.
- Isn't that right?- Yes.
Then you've seen him now. Wu Julan is living very well.
His heart is taken, too. You can go back with ease now.
But... I don't want to leave yet.
What does that mean?
I can't bear to leave.
He's mine, and this house is mine, too!
Based on what are you not leaving?
Because ever since I was very little,
I've been in love with Wu Julan.
You--! Stop dreaming! Wu Julan won't like you!
Not necessarily.
Did you know? I look almost the same as Bai Yihan.
I know everything about Wu Julan and Bai Yihan's story, too.
Also, I don't mind if he treats me as Bai Yihan's replacement at all.
One is his old love that went through life and death with him.
One is the new love that he hasn't spent much time with.
Take a guess. Who will Wu Julan love more?
Xiao Luo? What's wrong?
Say something!
What is it?
If you still won't talk, I'm going to go ask Wu Julan!
What is it? What's wrong?
Did Wu Julan bully you?
That brat! He dares to bully you? I'll teach him a lesson!
What does this mean? It has nothing to do with Wu Julan?
Still, wasn't it him who has messed with you?
My dear! I don't know what it means if you just shake your head without talking!
Tell me what it is! I'll get justice for you!
Wu Julan didn't bully me.
Someone just wants to steal my boyfriend!
Don't cry, don't cry!
Be good, be good. Don't cry. Don't cry.
That means,
Wu Julan has an ex-girlfriend who died for him?
And this Michelle is his ex-girlfriend's relative?
And she looks almost the exact same as her, too?
She challenged you?
Isn't she clearly going to fight with you over your man?
What do you think I should do?
This drama plot has too many twists and turns!
It's really too melodramatic!
As I see things,
just give her Wu Julan.
I won't! Why should I give her my first love who I have waited twenty years for?
Okay, okay, okay. Don't give him to her. Don't cry!
Don't give him to her! Let me think again!
Since... you don't want to give him to her, then there's only one thing you can do.
From now on,
you must tightly grab onto Wu Julan's heart.
Jiang Yisheng, you must help me!
Don't worry! You have me!
Little guy!
What? Michelle is Bai Yihan's descendant?
Isn't it too big of a coincidence?
It's been so many years!
A supposed descendant had to come now?
I think so, too.
Send someone to New York to check Michelle's background.
- It must be done quickly.- Yes.
Regulus, actually, you could get closer to Michelle.
Regardless of whether she's Bai Yihan's descendant or not,
you should clarify why she came.
How about this? Let me do it.
I'll arrange for you to meet with Michelle.
But before you clarify why she came,
you have to stay calm and collected.
- Hello?- Brother Julan?
Shen Luo...?
It's me! Your Xiao Luo!
Brother Julan! Tonight at the island bar,
- Whine!- I've prepared a surprise.
I wont' leave before I see you!
Come take a look!
Every piece of clothing here has been laboriously
and meticulously selected by me.
Every piece is a premium. No matter which you'll wear,
you'll make every man focus on you!
How is it? Are you done changing yet?
How does it look?
Not bad, not bad! It's very sexy!
How is this sexy?
How much longer will it take?
I'm done changing.
This... You don't wear a camisole under it!
Take it off, take it off!
It's too revealing if I don't wear a camisole!
Why does it take her so long to change an outfit?
How much longer do you need?
Lift your arms!
The skirt is too long! How are you supposed to seduce men if you cover your legs?
Let me help you pick.
This one isn't bad. It matches your aura.
What is it? Do I have you in a daze?
I'm in a daze.
What are you standing there for?
- You're very pretty today.- Thank you.
Why are you here too?
Brother Julan told me to come.
- You told her to come?- I--
[Regulus, I almost forgot to tell you.]
[I've already arranged for you to meet up with Michelle at the island bar this afternoon.]
Say something!
Xiao Luo, I was the one who asked Michelle to come.
Wu Julan, you--!
Xiao Luo, calm down.
Since your enemy came on her own,
let's humiliate her severely.
In a bit, put this on.
When that happens, I will use my phone
to control your actions.
Today, you use your body,
and I'll use my spirit. We'll work together!
We must obtain Wu Julan!
Give me five!
Don't worry. You're not fighting alone right now.
Then since you came, let's eat together.
Please enjoy.
Xiao Luo, listen to my instructions right now.
Pick up the wine glass in front of you and move it every so slightly.
Let me tell you. In many men's eyes,
when a woman picks up her wine glass and lightly moves it around,
it's sexy, elegant, and high class.
Xiao Luo, that's not how you swirl wine.
Your hand has to be placed on the stem of the glass.
The movement has to be natural.
This way, you can make the smell of the red wine come out.
Then you can make the wine have full contact with the air,
so that the taste of the wine is more fragrant.
What's the difference? Isn't it the same when it ends up as urine?
Xiao Luo, don't be so crass!
Fine, fine. Forget about the red wine.
Pick up your fork and knife.
Cut a small piece of steak and feed it to Wu Julan.
You must seductively say, "open up!"
It's very rare that someone doesn't know how to use a fork and knife these days.
What's it to you?
It's okay, I'll help you.
You're so stupid!
You can't even cut a steak properly! You're useless!
- You're the useless one!- What did you say?
I...I'm saying that this fork and knife aren't very useful.
It looks like there's no other way.
I must use my killing blow!
Xiao Luo. Right now, I'm going to use my last trick.
Today, no matter if it's victory or defeat,
there's only this one move left. Listen to me.
Move your leg slowly towards Wu Julan.
In front of him, lightly and gently
caress up and down, and then rub against him!
Why isn't there a response yet?
Trust me!
Not a single man can resist this trick!
Put some strength into it! Rub hard!
Xiao Luo, what's wrong?
My foot fell asleep!
Why isn't there a response yet? Do your tricks work?
Xiao Luo, I'm sorry to tell you that it's not my problem,
but I think it's your Wu Julan's problem!
I got exposed!
She's rubbing the table leg!
Xiao Luo is really cute. She needs to get external help to partake in this western meal.
I lose to you in Western tricks.
But in Chinese culture, who cares?
Did you know? Regarding, your ancestor Bai Yihan and Wu Julan's matter,
if we were to use an old poem to describe it, what would it be?
"This love can stay as a memory."
"It was already disappointing at that time."
That means that the past is the past!
The two of them were over with long ago!
Wu Julan and I are different.
If we were to describe us with an ancient poem.
That poem would be... "A precious encounter,
even if it were for a short period of time,
even if the longing causes one to lose weight and be too small and frail for one's clothes, there's no regret."
"In the sky, be two birds flying wing to wing. On earth, be two trees with branches intertwined."
"Having experienced the vicissitudes of life and love together, there's no one else besides you for me."
It seems like your words aren't a poem.
These few poems you've recited are from Qin Guan, Liu Yong, Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen respectively.
It happens that I majored in Chinese literature at college.
Moreover, "This love can stay as a memory," also has another meaning, and that is, memorable love.
I'm not going to eat any more!
Xiao Luo!
Wu Julan!
Miss Michelle! What a coincidence! We actually--
I'm not done talking yet, how could you leave?
Where did you buy that dress? It's quite pretty!
I want to buy one for our Liangliang, too!
Why did you follow me? Why aren't you looking for your Michelle?
She's better than me in everything anyway.
Do your feet hurt?
Yes!
Not so hard!
Why aren't you saying anything?
You know to be embarrassed now?
I was just afraid you'd be stolen away.
Let me ask you. Does that Michelle really look a lot like Bai Yihan?
Yes.
She looks so much like Bai Yihan?
No, I'll treat her as Bai Yihan. Between us, who would you choose?
Wu Julan, I don't care! You must choose me!
Even if she is Bai Yihan, you still must choose me!
She's been in your heart for so long already!
It's my turn now!
I don't care if she's Bai Yihan or Michelle.
If she wants to rekindle old relationships with you,
then get in line!
They'll only have their turn when I die!
You're not allowed to say that.
Wu Julan, would you choose me then?
Okay.
That's more like it.
You're not allowed to regret it!

The dagger that we see now is from the mysterious ancient Orient.
It's hilt and scabbard are made from nitrate.
According to scientific verification,
it has a history of over one thousand and three hundred years.
According to the legend, this dagger has powerful magic.
Once you have it, you can get the world's most precious treasures.
Now please, come with me.
What is it? You're going to leave without saying hello?
That's true.
If I were you, after such a big embarrassment today,
I wouldn't have the face to say hello either.
I say, you should just give up.
Why must you stubbornly hang on?
Can't you tell that Wu Julan doesn't like you?
- You're talking nonsense!- I'm talking nonsense?
Then has he touched you before?
A man won't even touch you.
If he doesn't like you, what is it?
Wu Julan isn't unwilling to touch me!
It's just that I haven't made my big move yet!
What are you doing here?
Guess!
Cut it out.
Hurry and go back to your room.
No! I'm going to sleep here today!
Cut it out!
I'm being serious!
Come, be good. Go back to your own bed.
What are you doing?
Wu Julan, am I not good enough?
No, you're very good.
I think I'm very good, too.
Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for you.
Wu Julan!
You're such a blockhead! I'm so angry!
I don't care! I'm not going to leave! Let's see what you'll do to me!
Wu Julan, don't be shy!
People must step over this obstacle in their lifetime!
Wu Julan! Hey!
What is the meaning of this?! I--!
Wu Julan! Open the door! Open the door!
There was a lot of movement in Wu Julan's room last night.
That's because you don't know how ecstatic it was last night!
You're a lady. How can you not have any sense of shame?
Wu Julan clearly doesn't like you, but you insist on sticking to him.
Is there meaning to that?
There is! Of course, there is!
If you haven't tried it before, how would you know?
Xiao Luo, let me explain. I really don't intend to destroy your relationship with Wu Julan.
I just wanted to see if he's living well!
What are you doing?
Shen Luo, don't push me!
Are you okay?
Wu Julan, let me explain!
I didn't push her! She fell down herself!
Don't panic. We'll talk when I get back.
There are no fractures, just some pulled muscles.
She'll be fine after a few days of rest.
The doctor said I'm okay. Don't worry.
Since you're okay, I'll leave now. I still have things to do.
But--! I can't leave alone!
Miss, I'll take you back.
There's no need!
- I'll have to trouble you.- No problem.
This is the report I just got.
Michelle once received secret plastic surgery.
This is the way she looked before plastic surgery.
She doesn't look like Bai Yihan at all, right?
This Michelle is full of lies!
I don't think she's Bai Yihan's descendant at all.
She made herself look like Bai Yihan and got close to you.
She must have ulterior motives.
I got it.
- Zhou Buwen.- What is it, Boss An?
Are things going smoothly in New York? Do you need me to go over there?
There's no need. I've finished things here.
I'm contacting you today because I need you to
find two more people on the island for me.
I can do that. Who do you need me to find?
- It's her! It's her!- So, it's her?
Hurry and let's go.
It's her.
- Doesn't look like her. - Let's go.
- It's her, right?- Let's go.
What are you looking at?!
How can you still casually go marketing at a time like this?
What's up?
Don't you know?
What should I know?
It has already spread all over town by now.
The rumor is about you having pushed that American reporter down the stairs due to jealousy.
I didn't push her. She fell down herself. She framed me!
Of course, I believe you, but will other people believe you?
We also can't just leave it as it is.
I'm so mad. I can't endure it any longer. I'm going to confront her!
What are you going to do?
I'm sorry.
Don't be hasty!
Hurry... Hurry!
Speak calmly and clearly.
Hurry up and go home! Xiao Luo has gone to look for Michelle to settle a score.
- Hurry up and go home!- What are you saying?
Shen Luo, what do you want to do again?
I'm not doing anything. I just want you to tell everyone clearly what had happened.
I didn't push you. You fell down yourself.
Who said I fell down myself? I was clearly pushed by you!
You're maliciously attacking me!
So what if I did? After all, Wu Julan believes me now, not you.
Fortunately, there's no fatality.
Brother Julan, it's good that you're back.
Shen Luo is trying to force me to admit that I fell down the stairs myself.
I refused to admit it and she started to behave violently.
You!
Alright. After all, my reasoning can't clear the misunderstanding. I'll just do whatever I can now and beat you up first!
Xiao Luo! Xiao Luo! Don't be rash. Don't be rash. Don't be rash!
There are so many witnesses now.
If you really want to beat her up, let's wait for an opportune time on another day, okay?
How much more do you intend to keep on pretending?
What are you saying? I don't understand.
Michelle, everyone knows your secret already.
Tell us.
What's your motive for transforming yourself into Bai Yihan to get close to Wu Julan?
Plastic surgery? Bai Yihan?
So, you are actually an imposter!
You even had plastic surgery to transform yourself into his ex-girlfriend. You're too abnormal!
Jiang Yisheng, shut up.
I'm speaking the truth.
Wu Julan, don't tell me you also feel that I got close to you
because of an ulterior motive?
It's true. I did undergo plastic surgery.
But that wasn't voluntary.
When I was sixteen years old, I had an unfortunate accident.
A large part of my body was badly burnt.
That was why I had no choice but to accept the surgery.
Even if you had no choice but to undergo plastic surgery,
why did you have to make yourself to look like Bai Yihan?
That's because I've been envious of her since childhood.
Envious of her because she met you.
Envious of her because she could have a romantic relationship with you.
Even if you didn't mean to deceive everyone deliberately,
it's still true that you tried to frame me, right?
Yes. I did fall down myself today. It has nothing to do with Shen Luo.
Look! Weren't I wronged?
But I did all this because of you!
Because you broke your promise first.
Wu Julan,
you promised Bai Yihan that you'd love her in your lifetime.
How can you forget it?
Don't hold him onto him any more. Hurry, let go!
Pretending again? Do you think only you know how to faint? I do, too.
Xiao Luo, stop pretending. This time around, she really has fainted!
Do you believe what Michelle said just now?
I owe Bai Yihan too much.
But these are two separate matters.
What connection does Michelle have to what you owe Bai Yihan?
What if Michelle is really a descendant of Bai Yihan?
What should I do?
I'm thinking right now.
Think quickly. I really didn't do it on purpose.
How would I know she'd faint for real this time around?
I got it!
What do you have in mind?
After my careful deliberation,
I'm sure now.
You'll have a hard time trying to evade your evil reputation this time around.
Brother Julan.
Do you feel better?
A lot better.
Rest a little while more. I'll go and check if the congee is ready.
Don't go.
Actually, I don't have much time left (in my lifetime).
I have a brain tumor.
The tumor is badly located and surgery is ruled out.
It's now at the final stage.
I know I shouldn't disturb your life.
But I can't be resigned to it.
I just wanted to see you before I died.
This way... I'll have no more regrets.
What has happened?
Did Michelle bully you?
It must be!
Michelle is overreaching!
How can she even dare to bully our Xiao Luo?
- I'll go and confront her.- Jiang Yisheng,
Michelle has a brain tumor.
It's already at the final stage.
Even though the doctor has already given me a death sentence,
I know you still have a way to save me.
Who told you that I have a way to save you?
Don't forget that my ancestor is Bai Yihan.
Of course, I know your secret.
