Episode 43
I have a drawing competition at school today. Mom, you're my model.
Sorry, Yi Bei. I was busy and forgot about it.
It's okay. We can still make it.
Ask your father to go with you first. Once, I'm done with my work, I will join you.
You clearly promised me.
Mom, let me show this to you. You can just take a look.
- You will definitely like this. - It's not bad.
Yi Bei, I'm really busy with work today.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's prettiest woman of them all?
Of course, it's Yi Bei's mom.
Mom, did I do it the right way?
Yi Bei. I am busy. Go and play by yourself, okay?
Mom, why are you busy again?
Didn't you promise to take me out for pizza?
Stop whining.
I distinctly told you that that dress is very important to me. You must keep it properly.
Why didn't you listen to me?
- Mom, sorry, I didn't do it on purpose. - You did.
After having found my daughter, I'm still a bad mother.
You despicable woman. You are your mom both sly criminals.
You wanted to get close to our family because you want to be the heir of Golden Thread Embroidery, right?
Don't think that you can come here
just because Sister-in-Law is supporting you. Stop dreaming.
Yi Bei, why didn't I recognize you?
At that time, if I had recognized you...
Just look at her mother and you know what kind of virtues she has.
If Guo Guo is Yi Bei, you will be her biological mother.
It's definitely impossible for Zhang Guo Guo to be Yi Bei.
Why can't you face reality?
Zhang Guo Guo is Jin Yi Bei.
No, she is not!
How could an uncultured and uncivilized girl be my daughter? She is definitely not.
If possible, I'd also want to be the perfect Jin Yi Bei that you imagined,
but I'm not. I'm only the Jin Yi Bei from the DNA report.
You are talking nonsense. You are not Yi Bei. You are not.

Have some water.
Guo Guo,
you are a mother.
As a mother, you need to be strong.
Teacher,
Le Tong hasn't been home for a night.
In the past, at nighttime,
she used to be afraid and wanted to go home.
If we
still can't find her after a month,
or a year,
what will she do?
This won't happen.
Le Tong is very smart and well behaved.
Although she is temporarily lost now,
we will definitely be able to find her.
Did you find Le Tong?
Mom.
I'm begging you.
It's my fault. I shouldn't have found my biological parents.
I don't want anything else. Please return Le Tong to me. I'm begging you.
I don't know where Le Tong is.
If I know where she is,
- I will go and bring her back now. - Stop lying.
Didn't you take her away? Didn't you hide her?
Did Zhang Yu Xin want you to hide her?
- Return her to me. I'm begging you. - I'm not lying.
Guo Guo, get up now.
I'm not lying to you.
I have never thought of hiding Le Tong.
Le Tong is missing. I'm more anxious than anyone else.
You are blaming me for this, but this is all because of you.
If you weren't going to get married, would I have taken Le Tong away?
Would Le Tong be lost then?
- Return my granddaughter to me. - Ai Yu!
Stop it!
Why are you hitting my daughter?
Was this how you raised Yi Bei for all these years?
Since you don't like her, why did you foster her to begin with?
Jin Yi Bei is my precious daughter.
I raised her with such care. I will never let anyone bully her.
Lead Embroiderer.
Why did you let her beat you? Why didn't you avoid it?
The person who is the saddest now should be you.
Why did you foolishly stand there and let her hit you? Yi Bei has always been a smart girl.
Look at you now.
You are so unlike Yi Bei.
Lead Embroiderer,
I really don't know what to do now.
Help me to find Le Tong, okay? I'm begging you.
- Guo Guo. - Yi Bei!
Sorry, could you rewind the tape?
From 30 minutes or an hour before?
Maybe around 30 minutes ago.
Yes, that's it. Pause it.
- Isn't that Le Tong? - Yes, it is.
I would like to know what time she took the bus and the direction it was headed.
Please wait.
It's the airport bus which goes to Eastern Zhenhu.
Heading to Eastern Zhenhu, right? Could you save the CCTV footage for me?
- Okay. - Thank you very much. Let's go now.
Mom,
I didn't know you were so skilled.
You decided to hide Le Tong and make them look everywhere for her.
That's pretty smart.
Are you overseas now?
Don't bother if I'm there or not. Come and see me now.
What's wrong with you? Why haven't you left?
I can't explain over the phone. Get over here. If you don't come, I'll go find you at your mother-in-law's place. It's up to you.
Mom...
Is it so hard to get on an airplane?
Your body is still weak. Why don't you lie down for a bit longer?
It's your favorite mixed congee... At least have one bite.
Lead Embroiderer Xu,
I can only think of Le Tong right now. I can't eat a thing.
Don't worry.
Everyone is doing their best to find her. They will definitely be able to find her.
I'm afraid that Le Tong will end up like me.
After a few years,
she will forget her mom.
She won't.
Le Tong will definitely come back.
How is it? Have you found her?
It's confirmed.
I just asked the airport's operating center, and they said a little girl got off the bus at Eastern Zhenhu. It must be Le Tong.
Let's go now.
Wait a minute. Do you want to go back and see Guo Guo? She must be worried.
Why do you keep asking me to go back? As a father, is it appropriate if I don't look for her myself?
Okay. You go back first. Thank you for helping me look for my daughter.
You don't need to thank me. I am single with no obligations. I can do anything, but you're different.
If you don't contact her, she will definitely worry.
So I will go over first. Come over after you meet up with Guo Guo.
Fine. Then, if you find Le Tong, you must call me immediately.
I will notify the police station first. After I've seen Guo Guo, I'll come find you straight away.
Alright. I'll get going now.
Why is he being so kind about this?
And "Guo Guo" this, "Guo Guo" that... could he have some kind of intention?
Grandma's jam is the yummiest, Grandma is the best!
Then do you love Grandma?
Yes!
Give me a kiss.
If you like it, I will make it for you everyday
Why are you still here?
Did Zhang Guo Guo catch you on the way to the airport?
Not only Zhang Guo Guo, but also Le Tong's father.
And then? Was Le Tong taken away?
Taken away?
You think Le Tong is a piece of clothing or a toy? Something that can be taken away?
How long do you want me to live a life of hiding secrets?
What are you trying to say? I'm asking you where Le Tong is.
Le Tong was lost. We have been looking for her all night.
Yu Xin. What's most important now is to find Le Tong.
Why don't you tell the truth to your husband and his family? Have everyone help look for her?
How can I do that? I wouldn't say it, even if I died!
Things are like this now, there's nothing else we can do.
Zhang Yu Xin!
How could I have given birth to a daughter like you?
Mom! I am the one who is suffering!
I worked so hard to become the daughter of Golden Thread Embroidery.
I tried so hard to get my foster parents to believe me. I have nothing now.
I am the most pitiful.
So she is your birth mother.
Mom! Mom! Mom!
Don't call me Mom!
Your mom is that woman.
Your birth mother is still alive, and you said you were an orphan?
You lied to us all of these years.
No, no. You've misunderstood.
Come here, explain to my mom. We have no relationship, right?
That's enough. Zhang Yu Xin, let's end this here.
I called Lead Embroiderer here.
What did you say?
That's right. I am Zhang Yu Xin's mother. I'm sorry.
We lied to you all these years.
Let me show you something.
99.9% chance of mother-daughter relationship.
No, no. Wang Ai Yu!
How can you say such nonsense? Did Zhang Guo Guo teach you to frame me?
Why do you blame Guo Guo for everything?
I believed you all of these years.
But you have been lying from beginning to end.
What I have done is nothing compared to what you did to become Lead Embroiderer. Don't you know that?
Yu Xin, look at the circumstances. Why can't you admit your wrongdoings?
Apologize to Lead Embroiderer. Ask for her forgiveness, okay?
Why do I need to ask for her forgiveness?
Who is the one who needs to beg and plead me?
Lead Embroiderer, you should know, right?
If you choose to forget everything you heard today
then I will also force myself to forget what I heard from Ding Wei.
Ding Wei?
Yu Xin!
Yu Xin, where is Ding Wei? What did he tell you?
Do you really want to know? I hide some things from you for your own sake
because once you know,
your lost daughter for 17 years, Jin Yi Bei, probably won't accept you anymore.
So, do you really want to know?
Zhang Yu Xin, who took you out of Xiping,
paid for your studies, and let you be her foster daughter? How could you blackmail my daughter and me?
Just because you gave me food and paid for my studies, I have to repay you for a lifetime?
Let me ask you: all this time,
have you ever treated me as your family?
These years, I've endured so much hardship. Did you care?
Even since I was young, I was always very careful during every test.
I was worried if I made any small mistakes, you'd become upset.
I exerted all my strength to behave well, were you ever touched?
At the start, I really missed Yi Bei,
so I helped you, and treated you as Yi Bei's substitute.
But after so many years, I watched you grow up and get married.
How could you say I didn't have any relationship with you?
If you want to blackmail my daughter today,
our little bit of relationship will end here.
Now that you meation mother-daughter fate,
you made so many lies to secure your position in Golden Thread Embroidery.
Aren't we really similar on this?
I feel we should be a pair of biological mother and daughter.
That's right. I forgot to remind you, I am currently Strong Group's daughter-in-law.
Would you be willing to lose me as your helper?
You think a mere position of lead embroiderer
is enough for me to trade in my daughter? You are wrong.
Also, I was the one who gave you food, paid for your studies, and gave you a new life.
Since I have the ability to raise you up, I'll have a way to drag you back down.
Then, don't blame me for what I'll do.
After discovering Yi Bei's amulet in Lead Embroiderer's car, I left for Jiangling.
How did Mom have the same pair of earrings in front of Aunt?
Mom, did you ever consider how Grandma, Dad, and Aunt would react
after hearing this recording?
The choice is in your hands.
If you let me continue to be your daughter, I promise to hide this secret for life.
Mom, I'm not asking for anything hard.
Us two should be true biological mother and daughter.

I can't even drink a sip of water since Le Tong is missing. Why did you bring me here to waste time?
Why is bringing you here a waste of time? It's Le Tong who wanted me to do so.
So I brought you here.
What did Le Tong want you to do?
She told me, when her mom is feeling very unhappy,
I must bring her to eat her favorite pizza.
She really said that?
Guo Guo. If Le Tong found out that you haven't been eating properly for the past few days,
she won't forgive me, so please eat.
You know me; I am not afraid of anything. But in this world,
I'm most afraid of two people.
One is called Zhang Guo Guo, and one is called Zhang Le Tong.
Okay, since you're not eating,
then I won't eat either. Just let Le Tong worry about the two of us.
I'll eat, okay?
Here.
Alright, stop crying, okay?
Eat another bite.
That's weird. When Guo Guo is eating pizza, why would I
remember Yi Bei?
It's raining where Le Tong is right now. What if she gets wet by the rain and falls sick?
It seems like a quick rain shower. Don't worry. Le Tong is a smart child, she won't let herself get wet.
What's wrong? Is your head hurting again? Put this on first.
Le Tong said that when it's raining, I should embrace her mom tightly.
We can't waste time anymore. Let's hurry and find Le Tong.
Why is your hand so cold? You can't get wet from the rain. Wait here, I'll go buy an umbrella.
Hey!
Golden Thread Embroidery isn't that far away from here, so let's just make a run for it.
Hey! Hey, Guo Guo!
Brother Yun Kai, hurry up! Hurry!
What are you thinking about? Let's go quickly!
Okay.
Hello, I would like to ask-
What are you doing?
Didn't I say so already? I'm going to tell everyone the truth.
Since you are not willing to tell them, fine. As your shameless mother, I will tell them.
So this is my son-in-law's company. So grand. No wonder you used such effort to get married to him.
What are you on about? Who would be your son-in-law? Come with me.
I don't want to go.
- Hurry up. - I'm going to tell everyone.
Let me go.
I told you, I will tell the truth to your mother-in-law, father-in-law, and your husband.
I'm also going to Golden Thread Embroidery to beg for their forgiveness. If these are still not enough,
I'm going to put up advertisements to publicize to everyone that Zhang Yu Xin is my biological daughter.
Lower your voice!
I'm your only biological daughter.
I've never seen a mom that would want to harm her daughter to death. Would you be happy if I'm sent to jail?
You caused all these. You have harmed me and Le Tong.
If I can't find Le Tong, I will never forgive you.
Fine.
What are you doing? Yu Xin, what are you trying to do again?
Since you already said so, I might as well get run over by a car.
Aiyo. I said those words for your good. Right now,
Guo Guo and Yun Kai already know that you didn't want Le Tong.
If I tell everyone the truth, it will lighten your crime.
Don't worry so much.
Let me ask you, did you buy the tickets with Zhang Guo Guo's card?
I bought them, what a waste of money.
You did the right thing.
The person who sent you and Le Tong overseas is Zhang Guo Guo.
You're still pulling Zhang Guo Guo into this?
Zhang Guo Guo has everything. As for me,
I only have Yun Zhe. I want to keep him by my side, am I wrong?
You can't help me and now you're pulling my leg. I've had enough of you.
Yu Xin. Yu Xin. Yu Xin. Last time, you mentioned
finding a pillowcase. If I find it, will you let everyone go?
You said you saw Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains? Where is it? Does Zhang Guo Guo have it or does Song Xiu Hua have it?
Le Tong said she saw it at Xiu Hua's place. If you can start anew,
I will secretly steal it back for you, if I must.
Since I know who has it now, I can get it back myself.
She's going to steal again.
That's quite a pity. Even though she isn't our family's granddaughter,
she has cried and called me grandpa.
All of a sudden, now that she is missing, I feel uneasy.
Dad, when did you become so interested in being a kind grandpa?
Did you change your mind on letting Zhang Guo Guo marry into our family.
As long as it's the woman Yun Kai favors, you'll accept her unconditionally?
Yun Zhe.
Dad, I'm not purposefully trying to think badly of her,
but did you ever think that it is a scheme Guo Guo planned to get married to Yun Kai?
How could a mom use her daughter to get married?
Other people won't, but I can't be certain with Zhang Guo Guo.
What do you mean?
Zhang Guo Guo has poor moral standing. It's not like you didn't know about the Lisa Wu incident.
I was a bit suspicious, so I spent some time investigating,
I found this from the airline.
It says that Wang Ai Yu and Le Tong's plane tickets were bought with Zhang Guo Guo's credit card.
I just now bumped into Wang Ai Yu and she even said
it was Zhang Guo Guo who asked them to leave discretely.
You bumped into Zhang Guo Guo's mom? So only the child is missing?
The child is not lost. They secretly hid her.
Dad, seeing such obvious evidence, do you still sympathize with those two?
She is already a mom, how could she do this?
Hello?
Chairman, Professor Jin is here.
Tell him to come in.
Chairman.
- Dad. - Dad.
Brother Hai Song, long time no see.
Professor Jin, long time no see. Since we became in-laws, we hadn't met yet.
You didn't get to attend the wedding. How's your body?
I have good news to bring to you, Brother Hai Song.
That's great, I also have good news to tell you too. Let's sit over there.
Tonight,
what do you want to eat?
Let's head to Yang Yang's home for a drink.
Okay, we work such long hours everyday.
Little girl, why are you here alone? Where is your home?
Uncle, I can't hear, and I can't speak. I'm sorry.
Why are you crying? Where is your mommy and daddy?
So pitiful. Maybe she hasn't eaten food yet or got lost.
To get married into our family,
how could she send such a young child overseas? How can she be so heartless?
I don't even want to mention her.
Who said Zhang Guo Guo didn't want her child?
Our Yu Xin has already looked into this.
She even brought evidence that Zhang Guo Guo bought the plane tickets.
Dad, I think you two have a lot of catching up to do. I won't bother you two.
Wait a moment. Let's not talk about Zhang Guo Guo.
Didn't you have good news to tell me?
We found Yi Bei.
Yi Bei is found?! That's great, congratulations!
How is she doing? Is everything going well?
Her conditions are not bad. Even though she was brought up in tough conditions,
she is still like her young self, very kind-hearted.
Even though there was someone playing tricks,
my daughter and I had seen each other before. We just didn't recognize each other.
That's great
Then, that means Yu Xin has a younger sister. That's great.
Whether or not Yi Bei needs an older sister is a different issue.
Dad, you must be joking. Since Yu Xin is your foster daughter, of course she is Yi Bei's sister.
Yun Zhe is right. Even though you found your biological daughter, you still can't treat your foster daughter poorly.
When will you let us meet her? Yun Kai always misses her.
Yi Bei is busy lately, and it's inconvenient to meet.
After she's finished with it, our families can meet up, and we'll know the results.
Okay, I'll wait for your good news. If Yun Kai heard this good news
he would be so happy.
Why doesn't Uncle give me food?
Even a stray dog that you found needs to be fed.
I'm so hungry.
Hey, go look if there's any food. She seems like she hasn't eaten anything in a long time. She must be hungry.
Alright, I'll go look.
Okay.
Little girl, what is this?
Uh oh. My daddy's phone number is on here.
Don't worry little girl. I won't steal it. Don't worry.
Little girl. Look what I found for you. Do you want to eat it?
You do? Then wait a moment, I'll open this up for you.
Hello, have you seen this girl before? She was here last night
Every half an hour we have another bus. How could we remember the faces of everyone?
What about seeing a child by herself closeby?
No.
Thank you.
Le Tong, where did you go?
Where did you stay last night? Are you still safe?
Excuse me, have you seen this girl before?
Hello, have you seen this girl before?
No.
Thank you.
I found this child at that intersection over there. At first I thought she was the child of a worker here,
but nobody claimed her. This child can't speak.
Also, I think she has some hearing problems. I don't know how she lost her parents.
Alright, I understand.
Little girl, come with Uncle first, okay? I'll help you find your mommy and daddy.
Mommy, I am okay now. Mr. Policeman is here to care for me.
Later, eating and sleeping wouldn't be a problem anymore.
Okay. Come with me. I will take you to eat something yummy.
If we really can't find our Le Tong, what should I do?
I won't let you say that.
If we can't find Le Tong, what would happen to Yi Bei? How will she live on?
She just found her parents, and hasn't started living her good life yet.
Sorry, I am just too worried. You don't even know how smart our Le Tong is.
She can memorize the phone numbers of me,
Guo Guo, Yun Kai, and even Jiang Zheng Chuan.
But still, there hasn't been a call.
Do you think she would have been kidnapped by a criminal?
You're regretting now? There's no use regretting.
If you had known it would come to this, why did you do it in the beginning?
It's my fault for being foolish.
I was doing it for my daughters' happiness.
Daughters? What are you talking about?
Is Wang Ai Yu here?
They're looking for me. Could they have found Le Tong?
You have come. Has Le Tong been found? Let's go, then.
Is the child at the police station?
Until now, the child has still not been found.
We need you, Wang Ai Yu, to come with us for an investigation about Le Tong's case.
You didn't find Le Tong? You want me for an investigation?
Come with us to record your testimony first, and then we'll tell you the details.
Xiu Hua, what testimony?
Are you asking me to help find Le Tong?
Who made this police report?
The person who made this police report is called Li Yun Kai.
Please come with us.
What? Xiu Hua.
Go on.
Le Tong still hasn't been found, why are you taking me away for an investigation?
I'm Li Yun Kai.
What's wrong?
I heard my brother say the person who wanted to send Le Tong overseas was Zhang Guo Guo,
so I called to confirm this.
Of course it's true. Zhang Guo Guo used her own card to purchase the air tickets, that can't be wrong.
But there's a problem:
Our Guo Guo doesn't have a credit card, so who registered for this random card?
Of course, she did it herself.
As family Li's daughter-in-law, I'm warning you to give up as soon as possible.
There is still so much you don't know about Zhang Guo Guo.
You can't let a woman limit your potential, right?
You are quite nosy. Zhang Yu Xin, I'm telling you,
this is an intentional partnered child kidnapping case. Also, the police already took Wang Ai Yu away for an investigation.
Who registered for this credit and who wanted to sent Le Tong overseas
will be investigated by the police. That's all.
Did you bring Zhang Guo Guo's ID?
Why do you need her ID?
After I'm finished using it, I'll give it back to you.
Ms. Wang, does Zhang Guo Guo know about her purchase of air tickets?
If you used her credit car without consent, you will also be charged for credit card fraud.
If anyone asks about the credit card, you must say that Zhang Guo Guo registered it herself
She was also the one who asked you to send the child overseas. Understand?
Wang Ai Yu. Answer my question.
I can't do this anymore.
Yu Xin, even though you're my daughter, but in this matter, Guo Guo is innocent.
She knows that I'm your mom and Le Tong is your daughter,
but she still stayed by my side and helped raise Le Tong. I won't let Guo Guo be sad anymore.
Mr. Police Officer, I'll tell you the truth.
Can I see a very important person?
Oh, I see.
That's so weird.
The police station officers need me to visit them?
Police station?
Yes. They said
Wang Ai Yu is there and has something important to tell me.
Wang Ai Yu? Is it Zhang Guo Guo's mom?
Yes, it is her. They said she was taken to the police station.
Oh my gosh. They're not asking me to bail her out, right?
I'm so unlucky. I should have fired her.
She's always finding trouble. I only have an employer-employee relationship with her.
Just ignore her.
If I ignore her, I'd be at a disadvantage. She took a lot of money from me.
Why would she be taken to the police station?
I'm quite curious, I'll have a look. You continue cooking.
Mom.
I think you should stay. I'm worried. I think she's playing tricks with you.
I don't care if she's playing playing tricks or lying. I'll give a visit, since I'm free right now.
I'm going to see exactly what happened.
Mom, I'll drive you there.
Yi Bei, is your headache better?
How could you be so silly?
Zhang Yu Xin clearly is Wang Ai Yu's daughter. Why are you hiding that for her?
Mom, how did you know?
Wang Ai Yu told me.
She wanted her daughter become my daughter, so she purposely didn't return you to us.
Does Zhang Yu Xin know that she told you this?
Zhang Yu Xin is more ruthless than I thought.
To stop me from talking, I don't know what tricks she'll pull out.
I remember Zhang Yu Xin once said, if I ever tried to find my biological parents,
it will drive Golden Thread Embroidery apart.
Yi Bei,
you were always smart as a kid.
Unfortunately, you didn't receive a good education.
After you find Le Tong, why don't you both go to America to study?
You can study whatever you want to study. Don't come back again.
Mom, where I study isn't an issue right now.
The issue is, Zhang Yu Xin has something up her sleeve again.
