- Switch of Fate - Episode 32
Am I dreaming?
I'm not dreaming.
Rendong, what's the matter? What happened?
Why are you standing outside the door crying?
Brother Zhengding, the traditional Chinese medical college's Headmaster Li
came to tell me he's wiling to break the rule to let me re-take the entrance exam.
If I can pass the exam, then I can go to college.
- Really? - Really!
That's so great.
Come on, Rendong. I'll help you review your homework right now. You have to pass the exam tomorrow.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Doctor Gu.
Han Chong? Why are you here? Do you need me for something?
Yes. I–
There are no outsiders here. Tell me, what is it?
You want to resign? Why?
Are you not happy with your job?
Are your wages too low? I can give you a raise.
No, that's not what I mean.
Is it that you don't like running errands?
Doctor Gu, stop guessing. It's none of those reasons.
Han Chong,
since you came to my house as a child, you've been hard-working and dependable.
Just recently, when I was treating tuberculosis patients, you were the first to come help me.
So whatever it is, just be straightforward.
Doctor Gu, I'm an orphan.
If it wasn't for Uncle Fang and you raising me for all these years, I wouldn't have my life now.
So I'll never forget how much I owe the Gu family.
Besides, I really sincerely hope Qingyuantang will keep getting better.
Since that's so, then it's fine. Why do you want to leave?
Have you become disappointed in Qingyuantang?
I'm... Anyway, Doctor Gu,
in the future, don't just treat patients here. The employees at the medicine factory, the managers and accountants,
you should pay more attention.
The medicine factory, the managers and accountants. Is there a problem?
No problem, that's not what I meant. What I mean is
you should pay more attention.
Doctor Gu, you know I've always dreamed of going out into the world on my own.
During this time, running all these errands, I've come across lots of people and things.
I discovered that I'm pretty interested in commerce.
And I just happen to have a few friends who want to be entrepreneurs together.
So we agreed to start our own business.
That's the real reason I resigned.
So it was because you want to start your own business.
Okay. Young people have ambition.
Since that's the case, then I'll take care of your start-up cash.
No! Doctor Gu, how can I take your money? That's inappropriate.
I believe in your ability.
I want to invest and earn money. Are you afraid that I'll earn money?
If that's how it is, then thank you, Doctor Gu, for your goodwill.
To tell the truth, I don't have much money.
- Then why don't we split it fifty-fifty? - Fine.
Then, I'll say goodbye now. Bye, Doctor Gu.
Boss Chen.
Han Chong, why are you here?
I know that girl Rendong was especially sad because of the exam.
So I bought her some treats.
Is she here?
Looks like you're really interested in Rendong.
But you're late. She went home to review.
She went home to review again?
It's like this. Tomorrow, she's going to participate in the college entrance exam.
The traditional Chinese medical college's Headmaster Li broke the rule to let her take the exam.
If she passes, she'll be able to attend the traditional Chinese medical college.
Really?
That's so great!
The girl is going to take the college entrance exam.
That's great. That's so great!
Thanks.
- Is there anything you don't know? - No.
I know it.
♫ Looking at you back then ♫
♫ Talking about our dreams with a pure heart ♫
♫ Going back to the fond memories from that restaurant ♫
♫ Why do they make me cry so much when I am leaving? ♫
♫ You told me to see myself more clearly ♫
♫ And I have decided to give up on you ♫
♫ So you can find a better ♫
Brother Zhengding, why are you doing that? ♫ And more courageous person ♫
Don't mind me. Here. Here, sit.
Here, write.
Looking at the two of them, they seem to be getting along better and better.
That won't do. I must think of a way to get in their way.
Rendong,
how did your exam go?
I-I was too nervous. So–
It's okay. A person's life is very long. Success or failure isn't based on this one exam.
If you didn't pass the test today, you can take it again next year, okay?
What's the matter? Did I say something wrong?
I was messing with you. I nailed it.
Really? I knew you wouldn't have any problems.
Hello, Headmaster Li.
- Rendong. - Headmaster Li.
You took the test?
I really have to thank you for letting me take the exam.
Thank you.
You don't need to thank me. If you have to thank anyone, you should thank Doctor Gu.
Doctor Gu?
Here, have some tea.
Jingyi, is the rumor about you and Brother Fang Cheng true?
I'm sorry, that's not what I mean.
Of course I know you and Fang Cheng are innocent.
It's just, how did this all happen?
Why would Old Madam Gu misunderstand that you and Brother Fang Cheng had relations?
I–
I don't know how to tell you.
Just be straightforward and honest. Maybe I can help you clear your name.
- It was– - Ronghua. Hey, Ronghua.
Ronghua.
- Mrs Gu. - Hello.
Sister-in-law, why are you here?
I came to find you. I'm so nervous.
Quick, help me think of a way.
Then, since your sister-in-law needs you, then I'll go back to my room.
- You two can chat. - Okay.
Hurry and help me think of something. I'm so nervous.
What is it that you're so excited about?
Of course it's about Zhengding and Rendong.
Those two kids are getting more and more inappropriate.
They are getting along so well, they're stuck together all the time.
If this continues, what will happen?
Help me think of a way to see if we can
separate those two kids somehow.
I thought it was some big deal. Isn't it just some puppy love?
Here, sit down.
Don't worry. Sit, sit.
How can I not worry about it?
Ronghua, help me think of a way.
The way I see it, if that girl Rendong can really get into college,
one day she'll be a doctor. And then she'll be a pretty good match for Zhengding.
If she becomes our Chen family's daughter-in-law, she'll always have to work at the Chen family medical shop.
With her relationship with Doctor Zhan,
we can still get those secret traditional medical recipes from Doctor Zhan!
Then our Chen family medical shop won't be able to stop making money, right?
That... No, no, no.
I still think Qiangwei is better than Rendong.
Besides, Rendong has such a difficult mom.
As soon as I think of becoming family with that woman, my head explodes.
Qiangwei is still better. Her bloodline is better.
To marry into the Gu family, their house is big, their business is big.
Ronghua, if we really become family with Qingyuantang,
that would be a real match.
I feel that, for Zhengding's future prospects,
I still have to talk to the Old Madam. Their marriage...
That won't do. Better said than done. Let's go find her right now.
Right now?
Yes. A long delay means trouble. Come on, come with me.
[Qingyuantang]
Thank you for your help, Doctor Gu. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have this kind of opportunity.
No need to thank me. I was just happened to know the headmaster.
I knew the real reason you were delayed from taking the exam,
so I let him know.
So, he's the one who gave you the chance.
Whether it was you or the headmaster,
I'll never be able to repay both of you for your generosity.
Rendong, a doctor's benevolence...
During the most critical time, you let go of your own chance
to help a person who needed you.
That's the most important quality you need to become a doctor.
Moreover, you've had an affinity for traditional medicine since you were little.
If you couldn't attend the traditional Chinese medical college, that would be such a pity.
You're praising me too much. Actually, I think it's because
I received your instruction here since I was little, and because of Doctor Zhan's instruction.
Rendong, can you do me a favor?
What is it?
I hope that, before I'm a hundred years old,
you can help Qiangwei run Qingyuantang.
This–
I know. Qiangwei has been spoiled rotten by me. She's headstrong.
But I'll persuade her to let go of her prejudice and accept you sincerely.
If I get my medical license, I'll work at the Chen family medical shop first.
If Qingyuantang needs me, I'll do my best to help.
Thank you.
That's what I should do.
You brought so many gifts because...
It's really so embarrassing, Old Madam.
We... It's because of last time, when Zhengding accidentally
let Qiangwei get into a car accident, so we wanted to make up for it.
That's right, Old Madam Gu. So please be magnanimous
and forgive Zhengding and stop arguing with him.
Qiangwei told me that it's not entirely Zhengding's fault.
So, since the matter has passed, I'm not so angry anymore.
Moreover, Qiangwei likes Zhengding, so I don't want to go against her affection.
Recently, our family has had a lot of problems, and I'm quite vexed.
So this situation, could you let me think it over a bit longer?
Sure. That would be great.
We're so happy that you would even think about it.
Old Madam,
we know what you're vexed about.
Actually, we already heard about Mrs. Gu and Fang Cheng.
We all believe Mrs. Gu is a good woman
who definitely couldn't do anything unforgivable to Doctor Gu.
If you're still worried, we have a way.
What way?
Ronghua, come.
Old Madam, my little sister-in-law has always like Fang Cheng.
Why don't you be a matchmaker for them?
Sister-in-law, why did you bring that up?
This is a good thing. Why are you being shy?
Since you like Fang Cheng, isn't this a good opportunity?
Let Old Madam be your matchmaker and get you two married.
Old Madam, what do you think?
This...
Back when your little sister-in-law was a maiden, Fang Cheng didn't marry her.
Now she's divorced and has a child. I'm afraid...
So what if she has a child? Doesn't Fang Cheng have a child, too?
You-You're saying, Fang Cheng has a child?
That's right.
Fang Cheng had us take care of his daughter for a while, too.
And it's a daughter? That couldn't be.
It's true. I'm not lying to you.
That's right, didn't you let Fang Cheng go to Beiping to bring Qiangwei back home?
He said you had him go to Beiping to handle some business,
and before he went, he left his daughter with us to stay for a while.
It's just that Fugui wasn't careful, and he burned the child's arm.
Daddy.
Her-Her arm, where was it burned?
Right here. On her left arm.
So like I said, both of them have kids.
Fang Cheng shouldn't argue about it.
Then, that girl, where is she now?
That girl, I heard she was taken by her family.
Old Madam.
Burned her arm... could it be...
Qiangwei is Fang Cheng's daughter?
Old Madam, are you okay?
You... are you feeling sick? I'll go get Doctor Gu.
No, it's nothing. It's nothing.
I'm fine. I'm fine.
There have been too many things going on lately.
I'm dizzy and my eyes are blurry. My liver inflammation has been acting up.
I'll be fine after I get some rest. It's fine, it's fine.
Then, Old Madam,
Zhengding and Qiangwei's marriage, do you...
Sister-in-law, let's talk about this later.
Let's go now, and let the Old Madam rest.
Oh, okay, okay.
Then, Old Madam, we'll go first, and not bother you anymore.
- We'll go. - Then I won't see you out.
- Old Madam. Old Madam. I brought the child home. - Quick.
Let me hold her. Let me hold her.
Oh, good girl. Look at this good child.
Gu Feng, look, this child has a scar on her arm.
Look at her, it's right here.
How did this happen? Look at her.
Fang Cheng, do you know about this?
Old Madam, I'm not sure.
I didn't carefully inspect the child.
- Gu Feng, look at her. - It looks like she was burned by something.
Grandma. Grandma.
Grandma, look. I bought some new clothes today.
Grandma, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?
Grandma, if you're not feeling well, I can help you up.
No, no need. I can do it myself.
Didn't you buy new clothes?
Why don't you try them on? Quick, go.

How could this be?
I never would have thought that the granddaughter I raised for eighteen years
was actually Fang Cheng's daughter.
It's too abominable. I wouldn't have thought that, on behalf of that girl,
he'd personally call the headmaster for a favor.
If Headmaster Li really accepts his request, accepts Rendong,
then won't it threaten Qiangwei?
Why do you hate me so much?
Is it because I'm the daughter of you and my mom?
Is that why you hate me so much?
But paper can't contain fire. If she tells my dad
that she's your daughter, what should you do? Would you still not acknowledge her?
If my dad found out that I'm not his daughter, then what should I do?
If things keep going like this, there'll be a day when the...
the news about us swapping lives will come to light.
When that happens, I'll lose everything.
No way. I won't let that girl wreck my plans.
- Hello? - Fang Cheng, come home for a bit.
Oh, okay.
Qiangwei?
Why are you here? Aren't you afraid Grandma will see you?
Don't worry, actually it was the Old Madam that called me here.
Grandma called you here?
Fang Cheng.
- Grandma. - Old Madam.
Come in the room.
Grandma, I want to come with you to listen.
You're not allowed to come.
- Grandma. - Shut your mouth.
I told you to stay in your room. Why aren't you going?
Old Madam, I'm sorry.
I made you mad that day.
But believe me, Jingyi and I really didn't do anything.
You really misunderstood us.
It's not because of that?
Then what did you want to see me for?
I wanted to ask you,
is Qiangwei really a descendant of the Gu family?
Of course she is.
Old Madam, I personally took her from Lu Yun's hands.
Are you certain?
Back then, the child you brought back from Beiping
was Qiangwei?
I'm sure. That was definitely Qiangwei.
Then, the burn on her arm?
That, I'm not sure about that, either.
Maybe Lu Yun accidentally burned her?
Tell the truth!
I-I am telling the truth.
Could it be that that girl
is your daughter?
Old Madam, you can't joke like that.
You should know, I never got married, how could I have a child?
Back then, you had an illegitimate daughter.
When you went to Beiping, you gave your daughter to other people to take care of.
That person accidentally burned her arm.
I don't believe there's such a coincidence in the world.
Two daughters who both have a scar on their arms?
Unless you pulled a trick on us
and switched your daughter with ours
and sent her to the Gu house.
Don't believe Chen Fugui!
I never mentioned Chen Fugui!
You said it yourself.
You–
You're not a human. You're a bastard!
It's funny that Gu Feng treated you so well.
it's funny that we treated you like our own family member.
It turns out that we had a thief under our own roof!
You dared to pass off your own daughter as my granddaughter!
Were you trying to steal our family assets?
No. I–
Where is my biological granddaughter?
You couldn't have killed her, could you? Huh?
Tell me!
- I'm telling you, you'll never see your granddaughter again for the rest of your life! - You–
- My medicine. - Medicine?
Quick, give me my medicine.
You want your medicine, do you?
It's over there.
Go get it yourself.
Old Madam, your medicine is here.
Come get it.
I'll help you get it.
I got it.
Old Madam, your medicine is over there.
Quick, go get it.
What's that sound?
Old hag,
you can't blame anyone but yourself.
If only you'd treated me better, you wouldn't have experienced this day.
Also, if your kind-hearted and honest daughter-in-law were here,
would she be able to see you fall and not help you?
I'll tell you the truth. That day, I really did look for Jingyi.
But I didn't find her for any other reason,
I wanted her to divorce Gu Feng and then marry me.
But she wouldn't agree. She said Gu Feng was the one she loved.
Alright, now that you know all of this,
it's time for you to die.
Grandma. Grandma?
Open the door! Open the door, Fang Cheng!
- Open the door! - Qiang-Qiangwei.
- Open the door! - Qiangwei, save me.
- Open the door! Grandma! Grandma! - Save me.
Qiangwei. Qiangwei.
Open the door! Open the door!
- Grandma! - What are you doing? Get out of here.
- Let go of me! - Qiangwei!
Grandma! Grandma! Are you okay?
Don't scare me.
Grandma, Grandma, don't worry.
Don't worry. I'll go find Dad now.
I'll go find Dad now to save you.
- What are you doing? - Let go of me!
Let go of me!
- What are you going to do? - You're insane!
If you leave her like this, she might die!
Don't worry about her!
- Let go of me! - Get back here.
She already knows that you're my daughter.
What?
No. I don't care if Grandma knows about my birth situation.
Right now I have to save Grandma.
- Get back here. You can't save her. - I have to save Grandma.
I have to save Grandma!
- Qiangwei! - Let me go! Let me go!
You can't go anywhere!
Sorry, Qiangwei.
Qiangwei. Okay, don't be scared. Don't be scared.
It's all my fault. It's all my fault. I got agitated.
Forgive me.
Qiangwei, it's fine. It's fine.
Don't worry. This old hag won't wake up again.
Everything will be fine after a few days.
And then, we won't have to suffer so much.
The whole Gu house will be yours. It'll all be yours.
Also,
we can finally acknowledge each other as father and daughter.
We'll never have to look at their faces again!
Qiangwei, really, we can acknowledge each other as father and daughter. Qiangwei.
I'm begging you.
Let Grandma go, okay? Let Grandma go.
I'm begging you.
Grandma.
- Doctor Gu! Doctor Gu! - Doctor Gu!
What happened?
Someone just came from the house, saying Old Madam fainted in her room.
Mom fainted?
And he said, Qiangwei just took Old Madam to the hospital.
Okay, let's go.
[Currently Operating]
Calm down. Don't make a fuss.
What if something really happened to Grandma, then what?
If you want to keep your rich girl lifestyle,
then you'd better beg God to take that old hag's life quickly.
How can you be so cruel?
How can you say things like that over and over?
I'm telling you. Only by being heartless,
only by being cruel,
can you maintain your position in the Gu family.
And all of the Gu family's assets will smoothly be passed on to you.
Do you understand?
- Doctor Gu, be careful. - I'm fine.
Doctor Gu, in here.
Remember, okay?
Right here.
Qiangwei, how is Grandma?
Grandma had a stroke.
Right now, they're trying to save her in there.
Doctor Gu, look, the light went out.
Doctor, how is my mom?
The patient had a severe stroke.
Right now, she's in a deep coma.
The family members will have to make the most difficult decision.
The old lady might be partly or completely paralyzed.
Damned old hag, she sure has a long life.
Lu Yao.
Don't you have no classes today? Why don't you go out for a walk, instead of being shut up in the house?
What's the matter?
The weather today is pretty nice. Go find that rich man's son and go for a walk.
It's not like I don't have other people chasing me. Why do I have to look for him?
You're bragging so much, aren't you afraid of spraining your back?
If you had another suitor, why wouldn't I know about it?
Are you even my biological mom?
How could you say that to me?
Jingyi, are you okay?
This morning, I don't know why, my chest has been feeling really tight.
- Are you sick? - It's bad!
Something happened, something happened. Something big happened!
Sister-in-law, what are you so flustered about?
Don't you know? On the road here just now,
I heard Old Madam Gu had a stroke and was sent to the hospital.
Then, how is Mom now?
I don't know what's going on, I just heard about it.
No wonder. No wonder my heart was feeling bad this morning.
It turns out something happened to Mother.
Then, what should we do?
Jingyi, do you want to take advantage of this opportunity to go to the hospital?
Maybe you can clear up the misunderstanding between you and Old Madam Gu.
You're right. You're right.
I can't. I can't.
Mom has always been very resolute.
Once she decides on something, she won't change her mind.
I'm worried. I'm worried that if I go she'll get even worse.
Don't think so much.
Old Madam Gu doesn't have many people beside her. If you go see her, I believe she'll be very grateful.
That said, you didn't do anything unforgivable to the Gu family.
If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to clear things up,
will you let her misunderstand you for the rest of her life?
Let me think about it. Let me think about it. Let me think about it.
Stop thinking!
Such a slow person like you is going to worry me to death.
Ronghua,
just let Jingyi think a bit more. I think she's right, too.
Look, Old Madam Gu just went into the hospital. We don't know if she'll live or die. We don't know what the situation is.
What if she sees Jingyi and has a shock, then–
Anyway, I think we should wait for more information, then let Jingyi decide for herself, okay?
If we wait any longer, it'll be too late!
Jingyi, you're the Gu family's daughter-in-law. Even if you have to wait, you should wait by the Old Madam's side.
If you don't dare to go, I'll take you.
Let's go. Let's go.
Is something wrong with your mom? Since when is she so passionate?
Who knows?
- Ah Shun. - Doctor Gu.
Can you help Old Madam
take care of the hospital discharge paperwork? I'm taking her home.
Doesn't Old Madam need to stay in the hospital a little longer?
The stroke already happened.
Western medicine's anti-inflammatory medicine and anticoagulants, I can use them at home, too.
If she's going to recover, she needs traditional Chinese medical treatment.
- Go. - Okay, then I'll go do that now.
That old hag should have died. She hasn't stopped breathing yet.
Hurry. Hey, Brother Fang Cheng.
Ronghua. Jingyi.
Brother Fang Cheng, you'd better not talk to Jingyi. If other people see, they might gossip.
Oh, you're right. You're right to remind me.
Oh, that's right. How is Old Madam Gu's situation?
I wanted to go in to see her, but I was afraid Old Madam would be upset if she saw me.
So I was at the door, but didn't dare to go in.
You're really something. When you're scared of everything like this, how do you get anything done?
Why don't you tell us which room Old Madam is in, and we'll go see her.
Sure, sure. That's good, too.
Go straight ahead, then make a right turn. It's the last room.
Then we'll go first. Let's go.
Mother, don't worry.
I'll take you home. I'll treat you every day
until you recover.
Qiangwei,
why are you being so silly over there?
Come here and talk to Grandma.
Even though she's in a coma, she can still hear you talking to her.
I-I-
What's wrong with you? Hurry up.
Grandma, I'm sorry.
It was all my fault. It was all my fault. Blame it all on me.
Grandma. Grandma, don't blame me, okay?
I was wrong. I know I was wrong.
I really know I was wrong.
Qiangwei, I don't blame you. Don't blame yourself.
Grandma's illness has been there a long time.
It's lucky you got to her so quickly, and you could bring her to the hospital to be rescued.
Grandma.
Doctor Gu.
You came.
Auntie. Auntie.
Qiangwei, good girl. Grandma will get better.
Don't be afraid. She'll definitely get better.
Doctor Gu, how is the Old Madam doing?
Thankfully they saved her in time. She isn't in danger of dying at the moment.
Are you going to stay in the hospital? I'll take care of Mother.
I'm going to take her home and use my methods to treat her.
You can come back home with us to take care of her.
Mom wouldn't let me cross the Gu house threshold.
I'm afraid after she wakes up, she'll be mad.
Mom won't wake up for a while
and I don't know if my treatment methods
will let her wake up again.
