[Lion Pride] - Episode 5 -
- Recap - Sister Qiangwei, so you like Qiangda, huh?
I...
Why do you keep thinking about that?
And you even dreamed of Wang Qiangda.
Xiao Qian's math and history...
Let's see which class she scores higher in this time.
Fine, let's make a bet.
Wang Qiangwei is Dorothy?
I'm glad that we're a 1 and not a 0, Wang Qiangda.
Nice to meet you, Dorothy.
I think that Xiao Qian is intentionally hiding her abilities.
If she gets the same scores,
regardless of the exam difficulty, I'm sure it must be intentional.
Uncle Xun.
Hi, Qiangda.
What are you two bats doing here in the daytime?
Actually, we're here because of Xiao Qian.
What's wrong with her?
She...
Uncle Xun, do you remember that I posted a really hard math problem online
and someone solved it, so I started working at the cram school?
That person was Xiao Qian.
In other words, she's very skilled in math.
So, then, why are her grades so low?
I think she's doing it intentionally.
How could that be?
I even sent her to school for tutoring.
Uncle Xun, Xiao Qian's a good kid.
I'm sure she has her own thoughts and reasons for doing this.
What kind of thoughts?
At her age, the only thing she should be thinking of is doing well in school.
I'm working so hard to earn and save money.
I'm even planning on sending her abroad,
so that she can have a better future.
Uncle Xun, since Xiao Qian's hidden her abilities for so long,
this must be something she's thought a lot about and is sensitive to.
Xiao Qian.
Do I resemble Mom a lot?
Why are you asking about that?
Since I look like Mom,
when you see me, you think of her.
That's why you hate me.
What are you saying?
I don't want to study abroad.
I want to stay together with you,
to stay here, with the shop.
Xiao Qian.
Not bad. It's a happy ending.
Meanwhile, I wish I had a dad who pushed me to study.
Wang Qiangda!
You seem exceptionally sentimental today.
Because today's a special day.
If you're here, too, then who's watching the diner?!
Oh no!
Tada!
These are Xiao Qian's recent sectional exam scores.
Let me see.
We bet on this before.
Seeing you so confident, I'm a bit worried.
Something about this doesn't seem right.
Math...
82 points.
82 is really high for math.
Let me tell you her history score.
8... 88 points!
- Seriously? - 6 points more?
Oh, no! I owe a ton.
You said Qiangda would win by 5 points.
You're going to lose so much money, you'll have to take off your pants.
- Old Yan, hurry up. I bet 2,000. Pay up. - 3,000 for me. Sorry.
What's going on, Qiangda? Did you lose to them on purpose?
I did no such thing.
Moreover, Xiao Qian was the one to decide everything,
and you're the one who decided to gamble.
Yeah.
Boss, just pretend you're treating us to a meal.
And Xiao Qian's your student, too.
You should be happy for her.
Fine, I'll pay up. It's not like I can't.
Bring out the betting records.
If you bet, you pay.
Let's take a look.
All right.
Side, a double payout.
Renyi, a times five payout.
Thank you.
Qiangwei...
[x10 Payout / Qiangwei 2,000 / Old Guo 10,000]
Old Guo?!
Old Guo, you bet on Qiangwei?
And you put in 10,000 on a times ten payout? Wow!
Old Guo!
Thanks for the recognition, Teacher Guo!
Why did you bet so much money?!
Teacher Wang, I won by 6 points.
You rascal, you can't put off paying your debt anymore.
"In accordance with this agreement, the full sum of NT$100,000
or an unrestricted favor from Wang Qiangda will be granted.
Promisor, Wang Qiangda."
Of course I want the money! Are you playing around right now?
No. Think about it carefully.
An unrestricted favor from Wang Qiangda
is worth much, much more than NT$100,000.
Moreover, take a look at whether there's a repayment deadline.
- There isn't. - Exactly.
Wang Qiangwei, you have to look at the big picture.
If you consider inflation, the value of NT$100,000 will simply decrease with time;
whereas, the value of a favor from Wang Qiangda will increase with time.
I'm sure you can tell which is the better option.
Teacher Wang, aren't you breaking the rules here?
It's only natural to repay the money you owe.
Now you're tossing me this loan receipt and trying to convince me to give up NT$100,000.
- Are you trying to get out of repaying the money? - No.
If you really want money, then for now, I'll owe you money.
After all, your creditor, Sun Xiaoshan, can't take your money right now.
If only!
Although Sun Xiaoshan is no longer here, her brother is hounding me for the money.
But why would I just let this debt sit there?
- Will you run off? - Of course not!
- Would I run off? - You wouldn't dare!
Exactly. If neither the creditor nor debtor is disappearing, what are you worried about?
Wang Qiangda, the settlement says that NT$200,000 has to be repaid in three months.
You have to repay me before then. Got it?
No problem.
Oh, but if I really don't repay you,
you can just keep staying at my place and consider that repayment.
Like you said before.
[Xiao Tie]
Hello?
This is the flyer for the auction Chater's Group is holding.
The auction is in three days.
The important part is that I have some insider information.
The missing antiques from that year will be showing up here.
They haven't been seen in 23 years, but they'll be here.
Really?
We have clues.
But I have to remind you about this.
Antiques exchange hands on the market all the time.
Don't get your hopes up too high.
I know.
Xiao Tie, what are you doing here?
It's because I know you come often.
Oh, yeah!
She's an antiques appraiser.
You're an appraiser!
I am, but haven't you guys known that for awhile?
We can bring Qiangwei along to the auction and then...
- Maybe... - That could work.
You want me to help appraise something?
No problem.
We'll go with the market-standard appraisal fees.
Actually, we're not interested in very detailed appraisals.
If you come along to the auction,
we'll ask about any items we're interested in.
You can just tell us the basic history of the items.
Well, I charge NT$3,000 and up per trip.
If I'm appraising one item, it's NT$3,000 to NT$8,000.
But considering how close we are,
if you need more than three items appraised, I'll give you a 20% discount.
Forget it then.
He means that you can forget the discount. We'll pay full price.
- Seriously, forget it. - Whatever your asking price is, that's fine.
All right, it's no problem if the miser doesn't want to pay up.
If the two of you beg me sincerely, I'll do it.
It's human nature for friends to help each other.
This favor, I'll ask for it.
Miss Qiangwei, please help us.
What about you?
Hurry up.
Miss Qiangwei, although we're all friends,
there's a certain necessary etiquette.
Please help us.
Please.
Okay.
- I'll consider it. - Hey!
It's fine. Let her think about it some more.
Sometimes you have to pay money. Don't be so petty.
Hello, Uncle Qin?
Last time, you asked about your family's paperweight.
Something like it will be showing up at Chaters' auction in a few days.
Really? That's great!
Thank you.
Mr. Qin?
Yes.
What did he say?
He wants me to go along to the auction with you guys.
Yes!
Very good.
Zhan Dingxuan?
Why are you worried about him?
No... It's just that I heard he's out on parole.
There hasn't been any news about him, so I wondered...
if he's as impulsive as he used to be.
Old Yan, don't worry.
A long time has passed, and we've all gotten older.
I've already helped set up Xiao Zhan's life.
- But— - There are no buts here.
I'm a loyal person.
As long as you hold up your end of the promise, I'll take care of you.
If everyone holds up their promises,
then I'll take care of everyone.
Okay. What you say goes.
Is there really a surefire method to winning?
It's just a problem of probabilities; so, yes, there is a way.
I shouldn't have been that way. I was too foolish.
Dear god,
please let me take back all those curses I had for my math teacher in middle school.
Teacher Wang, please save me.
Actually, it's very easy math.
First, you have to determine how much you will win.
Let's just say it's NT$100.
And you have a 50% chance of winning.
Then what happens if I lose?
You also have a 50% chance on losing.
But its okay if you lose,
just double your bet to $200.
And if you lose again,
you double your bet again to NT$400.
In the end you will definitely win.
Then until the end,
how much can I win?
NT$100. I already said that at the start.
Wait, I'm not done.
If we're using NT$100 as our example,
by the 16th round, you'll be putting in a bet of more than NT$6M.
In the end you only win NT$100. So my conclusion is:
Don't gamble.
Studying math is useless indeed.
Thank you.
He dissed you!
Wang Qiangda,
do you know what your biggest problem is?
You're too obsessed
with calculating probabilities.
Don't just perform calculations all day.
Then what am I going to do?
Use more of your heart and less of your brain.
It sounds like you're saying to let your emotions guide your decisions.
That's very dangerous.
You clearly know what it means to let your emotions guide you.
That's exactly how you're acting towards your dad's case.
Take me for an example.
As long as I am with Qiangwei,
I feel very happy.
Sometimes, I even blush. My heart beats faster and I grow restless.
I don't know the reason,
and I don't want to calculate it.
I just know I like her.
- Are you serious? - Yeah.
I am serious.
I have to date her.
When you like someone, you don't need to calculate.
Because it is 100%
I'm cool, right?
You were electrified by me?
Right?
What am I doing?
If Xiao Tie has someone he likes, I should be happy for him.
Tell me, in a world of 7 billion people,
what's the chance of meeting you?
Don't think about that.
I'll decide my odds.
You guys are going to the auction?
Uncle Xun,
let's go together.
No, I have to run the shop.
Keeping to the schedule is key in the restaurant business.
Uncle Xun's over there feeling down.
But...
will the auction really have clues?
Uncle Xun, you should be asking
Wang Qiangda, who's had on a long face since he walked in.
Qiangda,
why don't you ever listen to others' advice?
Just let the police handle this.
Yeah.
Uncle Xun,
the auction is a public area. There won't be a problem.
Stolen goods would have gone through many hands.
Even if you find the person who sold it,
what is that going to prove?
Uncle Xun, heroes recognize each other.
Uncle Xun, did you add vinegar to the noodles today?
Why are they so sour?
Did he?
I don't think I made it wrong.
I'm good at making my seasoning.
I shouldn't have added the wrong thing.
Uncle Xun, he's just got a rotten mouth. (Says unpleasant things)
It's fine. Give me another bowl.
Can you give me a napkin?
Good evening, everyone! This is Sophie!
And it's time for Night Sky again.
First, I want to welcome
in our studio, Dorothy!
Hello, everyone!
It's here! Your love.
- My love? - Get rid of that long face now.
Wang Qiangwei?
What makes Dorothy so real?
She has a truly precious specialty.
Sometimes, Dorothy's jokes
are really—
Really lame, bad, and unfunny, right?
But let me tell you guys,
I have a very funny one.
Bring it on!
All right. Do you guys know who Ethan Ruan's grand uncle is?
That's difficult. Ethan Ruan? (his surname sounds like "soft")
The answer is Uncle Ruan Gu. (a homophone for "cartilage")
Don't you think it's funny?
Didn't someone say
that Dorothy's jokes aren't funny?
My laugh is because
Dorothy's jokes are clearly unfunny,
but she always tells them so earnestly and really enjoys them.
I think
that people don't find her jokes funny (hao xiao),
but rather, they find her ridiculous (ke xiao).
Your words are a bit excessive.
I think that a joke teller who persists in the idea that their jokes are funny,
who works really hard to make their jokes funny,
is being very responsible and dedicated.
He's serious, huh?
Very serious.
Sophie was right earlier.
Dorothy is a real girl.
Regardless of what she's doing, she's always dedicated and diligent.
Whether it's her students or her lesson plans.
And she even worries about her student's families.
You know she's a teacher?
I mean that...
She's like a teacher to all of us in the audience.
A life counselor.
Hasn't she previously talked about her life experiences to encourage others?
Your right. A life counselor.
What's wrong with him?
He's a little weird today!
All right, let's get a bit serious today
and talk about some heavy topics.
For example, your weight.
That's too heavy, don't you think?
I think it's better that we discuss something more superficial.
For example, your intelligence.
Uncle Xun, can you give him a glass of water?

Since we are privately investigating this case,
on the day of the auction, I think we should
- be low key-- - I understand.
Thank you.
It's nothing.
- Xiao Tie. - Yeah.
Thank you.
For investigating this case
that might be unsolvable.
Why are you thanking me?
We're brothers, no need to be so polite.
Qiangwei's home?
There are two kinds of pain in this world.
Things that you'll never have,
and things that you've lost which will never come back.
Not being able to get it.
Is better then losing it and never getting it back.
Since we never loved,
then there won't be heartache.
When it comes to love,
in a man's world,
if you love me,
then you won't leave.
So I won't try to make you stay.
But,
in a girl's world,
if you love me, you would come find me.
So I won't turn back.
This drunken exchange
feels like we really understand each other.
Strangers with the same thoughts.
Sometimes drunken words are the truest words.

I...
I'm fine.
I'm going to use the restroom.
Okay.
What am I doing...?
Why did I stop there?
Do you still want two shares of dessert?
Yes, the other guest should be back soon.
It looks like she already left.
What?
Mister, you left this on your seat.
I probably won't meet her again.
Really?
Yeah, the news came rather suddenly.
Qiangda! Come over here for a second.
Come over here! Hurry!
I have to tell you good news.
Qiangwei's landlord called before saying she's going to sell the house.
So she won't rent it to Qiangwei.
Yeah. I just got the call before.
So I told Qiangwei that since she is already living here,
and very happy and comfortable here, so...
Do you want to ask landlord Wang about his opinion?
Landlord Wang...
I know living here might disturb you guys-
So, can your rent go towards repaying my debt?
Really? Don't lie to me!
The loan receipt is with you, so do as you'd like.
Sweet! Welcome!
Welcome! Welcome to Qiangda's and my family.
Why are all these probabilities that shouldn't be occurring squeezing their way through?
Hello?
Yeah.
Did you receive an email?
Okay. I mentioned in the second email that the app still has a lot of bugs.
- If I hadn't become a prosecutor, I'd probably be a singer now. - Yes.
- Okay. - Let me play something.
Look over your part of the program
and check the other email. I sent the latest version over.
- Let me know after you finish your follow-up. - Really? Or are you lying to me?
Okay. Goodbye.
If you've never learned to play guitar before--
Let me show you the position. Press the second string with your forefinger.
Xiao Tie's been making things very confusing lately. I need to calm myself.
Then gently strum the strings.
- Is that how to do it? [Wang Qiangda / Wang Qiangwei / Please enter data]
Then let me play something different for you.
Okay.
Niuniu, do you have all the teachers' basic info?
I'm writing a paper regarding the culture of cram school teachers,
- and also the... - Okay, Teacher Wang, let me look.
I'll look for it for you.
I really think that... I'm just a part-time student employee, and I still have to take care of insurance stuff.
This is clearly a case of overworking staff.
I think you can use that for your paper.
- The documents you wanted. - Right.
Thank you.
[March 3, 1986 / Blood Type A]
Are you done? We can leave now.
Qiangwei, are you going on a date?
- No. - No.
I'm moving today,
and in a show of colleague affection, Teacher Wang's helping me out.
Teacher Wang, you are such a nice person.
Let's go.
Delivery.
Wait. I have something to send out.
Wait a minute.
Take a look. We pay a referral commission if you introduce new students.

You should have said it earlier.
Does your child need tutoring?
Changtai Tutorial Classes?
Salt's business is still going. That's not easy.

Okay. I'm Xiao Zhan. My friend, Black Ghost.
- And Salt. - Okay.
You mentioned Salt. Who's Salt?
The boss at Changtai.
[Changtai Tutorial Classes]
Thank you.
You want to eat all of this?!
You regret treating now?
Since I'm treating, of course, I'm not worried that you'll eat.
I'm just worried you're going to end up eating until you burst, just to get a jab at me.
You don't have to worry about that.
Your drink.
Thank you.
What are you drinking?
Sugar-free green tea.
All your things are here.
[Input complete / Continue to analysis?]
What are you doing? Playing a mobile game?
Nothing.
Why are you acting so mysterious?
I'm going to look for a place to sit.
Okay.
It's a swing!
Help me hold this.
When I was younger, I was short and slow.
I never got to sit on the swing.
Today, I definitely have to swing to my heart's desire.
When you're going up, shift your center of gravity up.
And shift it down when you're going down.
Shifting your center of gravity is the secret to swinging.
Okay.
Let me try it.
You learn pretty quickly.
The teacher is good at teaching.
The bright, sincere, and candid Wang Qiangwei
and the sharp, sensitive, headstrong recluse, Wang Qiangda
are incompatible in every way.
Are you serious?
I am serious.
I have to date her.
You don't need to calculate anything if you like someone.
Because it is 100%.
No conflicts. This result is good, too.
I give up! I give up!
♫ If I don't love you, who would I love? ♫
♫ What do I mean to you? ♫
♫ I'm not retreating, I won't retreat ♫
I give up! I give up!
Wang Qiangda, what's wrong with you today? Did you eat the wrong medicine?
Why are you using so much force?
If you're going to fight, you should take it seriously. Round two!
Let's go!
If you want to be serious, I can also be serious.
I'll beat you until you want to quit.
Your turn.
Boss! Boss!
Qiangda, use less force.
What's wrong with you today? Why are you treating Ah Fei and I like your enemies?
Ah Fei and I haven't offended you, have we?
Have mercy! Every debt has its debtor. Your fight with the boss,
it doesn't have anything to do with me!
Ah Fei, you're being too modest. You're really buff from all your working out.
Reverse it and put him down!
He has me pinned down. Can't you see?
- Tie Bufan. - Yeah.
Are you serious about dating Qiangwei?
I am serious about Qiangwei.
What? Miss Qiangwei?
I am serious, too.
What does it have to do with you?
Since it has nothing to do with me, let me go!
Okay.
If you are serious, then from today onward
stop treating your life as a game.
Delete all the photos and numbers for all those girls in your phone!
Get real. A game? You think I'm a playboy or something?
Those photos in my phone are all pictures of my good friends.
Some are the younger sisters of sisters of brothers of friends of my friends.
Are you going to delete them or not?!
Why would I delete the photos and numbers of my friends? Some of it's memories.
Some numbers are really my good friends.
One word. Are you going to delete them or not!
Boss! Please, delete them! Delete them!
- Boss! - Okay.
I will go shower first. Goodbye.
Hello?
Boss.
I found the traitor, Salt, who shot me back then.
- What? - I can't believe it.
Salt opened a cram school and he's working in education now.
That's so funny.
I was stuck away in prison for 20 years, and this guy's living this nice life.
Xiao Zhan! Calm down.
Calm down? I'm very calm.
After he shot me, I was captured and put away.
I can't even walk properly now. I didn't get to enjoy anything.
It's only right that I get revenge, don't you think?
Xiao Zhan, it's in the past. Half of our lives are over.
Just live your life right now.
Don't worry about working. I will take care of you.
Boss, you don't want me to touch him?
It's a different time now.
I'm a new man now.
We set you up with enough money back then.
Boss,
I know that your success and current position weren't easy to achieve.
So don't worry.
You can go about your own business.
I will take care of my own problems
and won't get you involved.
Xiao Zhan! Hello?
[Changtai / Language]
It tastes really good.
Then I'll buy whatever you like to eat.
Whatever you want.
Wang Qiangda! Try this. It tastes really good.
- Really! - I don't want to eat.
What's wrong? Didn't they work well a few days ago?
Yeah.
- It's weird. - Since you don't want to eat it, give it to me.
Hello?
Let me go to my office.
Wait.
Sir, the items you entrusted with us have been successfully registered for the upcoming auction.
That's great. What happens if no one buys them?
Don't worry. Chaters is an international corporation.
If the items aren't sold at the public auction, you can request for it to be put into private auctions.
That's great.
I hope we can sell all of the items.
Goodbye.
Goodbye, Teacher.
Goodbye.
Wang Qiangda!
Why are you so weird today?
Are you not feeling well?
No. I'm just a little tired.
I'm going to leave first.
Qiangwei, you didn't leave yet?
Teacher Side.
Wang Qiangda left?
Since his bicycle isn't here, I'm guessing he already left.
Qiangwei,
there's a saying: There's no such thing as a free lunch.
That's right. Think of what you will harvest. Then pick the fruit.
Then do you know it's the same with feelings?
Even if you like someone, but if you don't plan it out
then there won't be results.
You misunderstood. There is nothing between me and Wang Qiangda.
Don't be so quick to deny it. This logic applies to everyone.
Take me for example.
I'm the kind of person who, once I've decided I like someone,
I'll work hard for it.
What?
Nothing. I just feel like you are really cool.
You know what you want and am very straight forward with it.
Happiness won't drop down from the sky.
You know, there's a type of effort that relies on oneself.
We should, as women, meet the right person when we are at our prime.
Rely on oneself.
- Xiao Tie! - You got off work?
Why are you here? Did you come to look for me?
Uh... I actually...
- For me? - Yeah.
Just... There's some things I need to say...
Okay. Okay.
Then let's go.
Call me.
Goodbye.
Where are we going?
We are going somewhere we have been before.
Wang Qiangda?
What are these two doing?
Uncle Xun.
- Yeah. - Look who's here.
- Good evening, Uncle Xun. - Welcome!
Qiangda didn't come?
He comes often, but doesn't come daily.
Why?
Nothing. I thought he was going to be here today.
- Uncle Xun, make a couple of your best dishes for Qiangwei to eat. - I will.
Qiangwei, what do you think of Qiangda?
♫ I'm not retreating, I won't retreat ♫
Qiangwei, what do you think of Qiangda?
Why are you asking this so suddenly?
Nothing, I'm just curious because you and Qiangda have known each other for some time now.
You also know that even though his personality is
a bit cool and he treats people coldly,
but sometimes he doesn't care about others' feelings.

Tie Bufan, are you serious about pursuing Qiangwei?
If you are serious,
then from today on, stop treating your life like a game.
Delete all those girls from your cell phone!
He probably likes Qiangwei.
Wang Qiangda!
As a man, you should take responsibility for your actions!
♫ There's nothing I can do. ♫
♫ There's nothing I can say. ♫
I hate this version of myself!
Yes, I'm just a big cat putting on a false bravado!
A cowardly lion!
I don't have the courage to tell you my true feelings!
Since I calculated that we aren't compatible,
then I'll just give you my blessings!
Calculate? Are you the same math teacher from before?
It's you again?
It's really you.
- Hi. - Hi.
Did I interupt you again?
It doesn't matter. There are a lot of people who yell here.
So I often record some unexpected things.
One of the amusements of my profession, I suppose.
Why are you here alone?
Oh. Alone.
But you made improvements. This time you talked about how you felt.
And not like last time speaking a lot of nonsense.
What? Nonsense?
It's like this. Our voices have emotion in them.
When the feelings inside of us are naturally vented out, that's a precious thing.
But instead, you like to talk about boring numbers. Such a shame.
I think math is very natural.
I mean, look at all things in the world. There's nowhere that math doesn't exist.
No, it was later that people used math to understand nature.
Let me ask you this. Do birds calculate the days before they decide whether they'll migrate?
Of course not. They don't need to calculate that. They would naturally know it.
The lion who doesn't live in the forest.
That's not right. Xiao Tie is already so sure.
There's nothing more to calculate.
- Place it here. - Okay.
This is the last box.
Xiao Tie.
I am thinking, shouldn't I return the room to you?
And I'll sleep in the storage room?
Don't you dare say such things. What's important is how you're living.
As a prosecutor, sometimes I work on cases, and there's no distinction between night and day.
Sometimes I'll just sleep in a cot in my office for a bit.
So you don't have to be so polite.
But if it's like this,
I feel like you should sleep more comfortably.
I'm serious. You don't have to be so polite.
If I was really tired, I can sleep in Qiangda's room.
We can squeeze together.
If you are really tired, you can squeeze in with me.
Are you serious?
What are you talking about? I didn't say anything.
What was that?
Why do I keep thinking about useless things?
Good thing I didn't just lose my manners.
It's hot.

You're not asleep yet?
Xiao Tie.
Let me ask you. Before, has Qiangda been like how he is today,
not coming home even though it's so late?
Why are you all of a sudden so concerned about Qiangda?
Don't worry. When Qiangda was in high school,
he was tough. He could fight 10 people.
But I'm not scared about his safety.
I think he's been a little weird today.
Either he's really standoffish, or he's super polite.
It feels like we just met.
He's originally very weird. Don't bother with him.
Maybe he's worried about something?
It's probably the Queen of Darkness?
What Queen of Darkness?
It's...
That...
- It's... - Talk.
It's actually Qiangda's secret. I really can't say it.
I talked about it once before, and he almost hit me.
So if you want to know, ask him yourself.
Qiangwei, I want to talk to you about something.
What?
Are you willing to be my girlfriend?
You're so ridiculous.
Why are you joking right now?
I am very serious right now. Does it look like I'm joking?
Yeah.
Don't you joke around all day long?
But this joke is not funny at all.
So everytime I try to talk to you seriously about this,
you always think I'm joking?
Also,
you probably are trying to avoid talking about the Queen of Darkness.
Right?
So it's like that.
- I was too impulsive. - I knew it!
The timing was wrong.
Act like I didn't say that.
Next time, I'll have to be more genuine.
Then you'll be able to feel
my sincerity.
Queen of Darkness?
Qiangwei!
Qiangwei.
What's the matter? You seem a bit out of it.
Let's go.
Loyal fan,
I've been influenced by you to like this brand.
Purses with a designer style.
Unique shoes that are comfortable.
Who wouldn't like that?
That pair is also really pretty.
This is so cute.
Store manager!
- Hello. - Hello.
I want this bag.
Okay. Do you want to pay for it right now?
Can you put the old one in there for me?
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Timing and subtitles brought to you by Proud Lions Team @Viki.com
Even though I know nothing will come out of it,
should I still continue pursuing her?
It depends on what outcome you are looking for.
If it's romantic love, then maybe the journey
is more important than the outcome.
I advise you to continue pursuing.
But isn't love two-sided?
Only having one side work hard
won't work.
You're right.
But although you can't force love,
it doesn't just plainly fall from the sky either.
Act according to what your mind thinks.
I will cheer you on!
What are you doing?
Sherlock wrote me again.
He's really your loyal and devoted listener.
Yeah.
But I feel like he is very weird.
Sometimes in the middle of texting, he disappears.
Sophie, have you ever had this feeling?
It's just that clearly...
There's a person who's stingy and treats you with indifference,
but you randomly want to care for him.
Our Dorothy
is in love!
You think so, too?
♫ I'm not retreating, I won't retreat ♫
Boss, because MP Lian Zhongyan is donating a piece of his collection for the auction,
and all the proceeds from the sale will be donated to charity,
so the auction organizers suddenly announced that they'd be holding a press conference.
There are a lot of people present for the event,
so the Wei An special force was called in.
And you tagged along?
Great to see you, Miss Li. It's been a long time. How are you?
Did you come alone today?
No, I brought my daughter.
Yeah, you will see her later.
Mr. Lian,
will the Puru painting you're donating be up for auction tonight?
Of course, it is. It has to.
Then we are in anticipation.
Who's that? She's so pretty.
An aura of elegance!
- My daughter. - Your daughter?
Wow, she's stunning.
She is.
Miss Lian, look at this.
- I have-- - What are you doing?
Didn't I say that's very rude?
- Are you okay? - It's really okay.
What's wrong, precious daughter?
Ask your security guard.
He's one of my workers.
He just wants to protect you.
Don't argue with him.
This really creates a commotion. I don't like it.
Mr. Lian, your daughter is very nice and very pretty!
For me, she came out dressed up.
Do you mind if I take a picture?
- Okay. - Thank you!
Ready?
I don't want to make things difficult for you,
but there aren't many things a politician can gain bonus points for.
A beautiful daughter always does the trick though.
Boss, I'll get to work then.
Sorry.
I'm glad you could make it.
Why are you guys here?
Oh my goodness.
You're so beautiful.
- Thank you. - Bufan.
Bufan Tie.
Thank you, the most handsome prosecutor.
Teacher Side! You are so pretty today.
Thank you.
It's okay. You don't need to force yourself.
It's okay.
The quality of your clothes seems nice.
These are the nicest words I've heard you say.
What? Your friends?
Introduce them.
This is Tie Bufan. He is a prosecutor.
Nice to meet you, I'm Lian Zhongyan.
I've looked forward to meeting you. I've seen you on TV. Hello.
And this is Wang Qiangwei, and Wang Qiangda. They are my colleagues.
- Hello. - Hello.
This is my dad.
Your father?
Right. Your last names are both Lian.
The auction is about to begin. Please take your seats.
Then we are going to head over right now.
Esteemed guests and media,
our press conference will begin shortly.
Let's invite Mr. Lian Zhongyan to the stage.
Thank you, Miss.
Mr. Lian Zhongyan, what made you decide to part with such a valuable item?
I hope to act as a catalyst
to encourage others to help the disadvantaged groups in our society.
Thank you.
I'm in. I see it.
It's pretty convenient.
Yes. There are always certain sellers who are unable to attend the auction.
They can see how their items are doing via the livestream.
Let me see.
The item I'm selling is Item 2.
Yes. Then during the process--
I hope the buyer takes it for a good price
and saves me the trouble!
Item 1, jadeite bracelet.
The item details are already in your hands.
- NT$500,000! - NT$500,000!
NT$1,000,000 going twice.
- NT$1,200,000 - NT$1,200,000 going once.
NT$1,200,000 going twice.
NT$1,200,000 going three times.
Congratulations to VIP number 22.
Item 2, antique paperweight.
Antique paperweight?
What's wrong?
That... That's Old Yan's possession.
Old Yan's?
What's wrong with Old Yan's possession?
There's nothing wrong.
It's his right if he wants to auction off his possession.
But there might be a different reason.
So it turns out it's this antique paperweight.
NT$800,000.
NT$800,000 going once. NT$800,000 going twice.
NT$800,000 going three times.
Congratulations to VIP number 7.
Yes, yes, yes!
Where did you buy it? Who sold it to you?!
I don't know.
Good thing I got rid of it.
Next...
is to get rid of that painting.
It's that painting.
From the Wang's collection.
I'm surprised this painting wasn't burned in that fire.
After all these years, and it's finally appeared.
The ones who threw it out are surely connected to the case.
Wang Qiangda, didn't we say
that it can't be certain.
Everyone, this painting
is also from Mr. Lian's auction items.
All of the proceeds from his auction items will be donated.
Wang Qiangda, don't act impulsively right now.
Even if Side's father is the seller,
you don't know that he has a connection to the case.
I know.
But, at least, it's a clue.
Starting bid, NT$3M.
Subsequent bids increase by NT$500,000.
Bidding starts now.
NT$5,000,000.
Everyone, don't panic.
We have a backup power supply.
The electricity will come back on soon.
What's wrong?
I don't know.
Why is it taking so long? Did someone go check on it?
The painting is missing!
♫ I'm not retreating, I won't retreat ♫
- The painting is gone! - Security!
Why are you looking for security? Call the police!
I'm a police officer.
And I'm a prosecutor. Trying to act cool over there.
Everyone listen up! Please don't move.
Ah Fei, call for backup.
Block off the exits.
No one can leave!
- No one can leave! - Hurry up and go.
Yes, Boss.
All right, listen up.
Everyone, please take out your IDs
to move along this investigation.
Prosecutor Tie,
all access points are under supervision.
Since the crime occurred, no persons or items have left the scene.
There's also nothing unusual about the items that haven't been auctioned yet.
Now, focus on an evacuation plan.
Yes, sir.
- Prosecutor Tie. - Yes, sir.
Now that everyone's identification has been verified,
can you let people go?
It's wasting everyone's time.
We can't,
because I believe the thief is still among the guests.
This is my analysis:
The lights were off for less than a minute. And the crime scene has police and security.
He must still be in the audience. He can't run away.
Then use your methods and find out who the thief is!
And find my painting.
Otherwise, let everyone go.
Mr. Lian--
Are you trying to force everyone to stay
and wait for you to play policeman and catch the thief?
Mr. Lian, don't misunderstand.
Because we have to follow these procedures.
We can't just indulge the guests.
Dad,
don't make it hard for them. They have procedures they have to follow.
I'm not trying to make it difficult.
I'm just discussing with the prosecutor.
Do you want to drink some tea first?
- Ah Fei, give him some tea! - Wait a while.
Teacher Side's dad seems really mad.
What should we do?
The thief's plan was deliberate,
but time is the big problem.
They must still be here.
Help me call Ah Fei.
[Guan Jingjing]
Reporter... Guan Jingjing.
Yes. You are...
My name is Wang Qiangda.
Can I see your possessions?
Why?
I notice that your nails are painted rather dramaticly.
You don't seem like a reporter.
Please!
Reporters these days aren't so stuffy.
Then the wound on your right hand,
how did you get that?
Why don't you have it bandaged?
Is it because
you got it from using a small knife to detach the painting?
Your eyes are really sharp. Thank you for your concern.
But it's just a small injury. I won't die from it.
But when I saw you before,
- you were using your camera, - Sorry!
taking pictures everywhere.
You weren't taking pictures of the auction though,
but rather, surveying the room.
When the auction began, you weren't interviewing people.
And your tripod bag
could perfectly fit the painting that was just stolen.
So you think I am a thief right now?
Aren't you being too extreme?
Miss Guan.
I am a policeman. Please cooperate with us
and open your bag.
Okay.
I'm a fine, law-abiding citizen.
Cooperating with a police investigation is only normal.
What are you doing?!
What is this?!
Impressive. You found me out.
You're called Wang Qiangda, right?
You won't be able to run away, Guan Jingjing.
Then chase after me.
Catch that suspicious woman!
Be careful! Be careful!
Ah Fei! Catch her!
Fire.
- Fire... - There's no fire.
There's no fire, just smoke.
Qiangwei, run over there!
Qiangwei!
[delete]
It's okay.
I'm here.
Qiangwei, it's okay.
Qiangwei.
It's okay. The light is back on.
Here.
Come.
Okay.
It's okay.
- Qiangda! - Ah Fei.
I just got a radio notice
that the criminal ran towards the fire escape.
Okay. I'll go over there.
Let's go.
Qiangwei,
let's go together.

Qiangda!
Everyone, we already secured all the exits.
She can't escape.
Good.
Xiao Tie, the gunshot was fake.
It was recorded beforehand and then broadcast out.
It's obvious she was trying to incite confusion
to give herself more time to escape.
I understand. Ah Fei,
take some officers and search floor by floor, going down.
I'll take care of the upper floors. Oh, and get me some officers.
Got it. I'll get going.
Qiangda, leave the rest to us.
You should take care of Qiangwei.
Don't worry.
Are you okay?
Everything's happened according to the thief's plan.
She probably has a perfect escape plan.
- Boss. - Hello!
Is there something
I can do for you?
My friend recommended me to come.
- Right. - I have something.
He said to find the boss
and mention
Zhanghua's Xiao Liao.
- He said you'd know. - Yes, I know.
- I know. This is... -This is
an old painting.
- Oh, an old painting. - Give it an appraisal.
Okay. Okay.
I want to get rid of it.
Right. Right.
Let me take a look first.
This is Buoyi's painting.
Why, all of a sudden,
are all of the Wang's things appearing?
How is it? It's pretty good, huh?
How much is this worth?
This is hard to say.
But I have a few friends
who would be interested in this old painting.
I advise you to leave this painting here.
I can give you a deposit.
Is there anyone there?
Are you looking for me?
You only know how to steal things. You don't hurt people.
Then try me.
Once this is injected, she won't be able to be saved.
Wang Qiangda!
Okay.
If you don't move, I won't move.
I can see that you like her.
Are you lovers?
No.
No?
But your eyes betray you.
If you guys aren't lovers,
then she's someone you really care for.
Is that true?
Wang Qiangda...
you're a really smart person.
I've always been looking for a man who's worthy to be with me.
I hope we can meet again under better circumstances.
Guan Jingjing, you're also a smart person.
Probably smart enough to see that I'm a person of my word.
As long as you release Qiangwei, I'll let you go immediately.
Qiangwei?
You're called Qiangwei?
I'm really envious of you.
Because of you, he's even willing to make this deal.
You have three minutes. Leave now.
Wang Qiangda.
Smart, confident, and trustworthy.
I don't think I'll be able to forget you for the rest of my life.
You have 2 minutes and 30 seconds left.
It's not fair if I'm the only one who can't forget you.
I also want you to not forget about me.

- Preview - You still haven't answered my question.
Date me, and I'll tell you.
Lately, you seem to be quite curious about Wang Qiangda's feelings.
Why is my heart beating so fast?
Someone sent a poison pen letter to Teacher Side.
Who's trying to slander me?
This case isn't simple.
If it's detonated,
then you'll probably have to say goodbye to this building.
Does it make sense that you're getting your revenge on me?
You're saying that person is Zhan Dingxuan?
Just wait and say goodbye to the rest of your life.
Make sure Ah Fei finds Zhan Dingxuan. You can't let him detonate the bomb.
