♫ Love has a kind of ominous feeling ♫
♫ When you are silent for a moment ♫
♫ Oh, I want to keep some yearning ♫
♫ for deeply sentimental attachment ♫
♫ but you simply turn a blind eye ♫
♫ Perhaps it is love's deceit ♫
♫ Perhaps it is you who is so capricious ♫
♫ accepting everything against your will ♫
♫ Why bother justifying the right and wrong? ♫
♫ And between me and you ♫

♫ Like the winter season ♫
♫ The heart, dropping to freezing point ♫
♫ Perhaps it is love's deceit ♫

The Lover's Lies
Episode 15
Yi Yi is my son! Yi Yi... is my son!
Then... then does he know?
Do you think I would let him know?
Du Juan, I know I've wronged you,
but I've already received my punishment.
I hadn't left you for long,
when that woman left me for someone else
She even did illegal business with my money.
I nearly got involved in her sentence to prison.
But I didn't think...
I never would've thought,
that I had a son. I had a son.
That's enough!
You're not fit to be his father.
If Yi Yi knew his biological father
was a failure,
an unbearably low person who abandoned his wife,
would he still recognize you as his father?
How would he stand upright in this society?
You're already unable to give him a complete life.
What you can bring to him is only shame.
Even destruction.
Do you want to see your biological son
turn into a failure in front of everyone?
Only your disappearance will give him a complete life!
This is the
only thing you can do for your son.
Leave...
for Yi Yi's sake.
You've probably never been in love.
That's why you would constantly mumble about
a eugenics theory, right?
If you actually met a person you liked
then all of her faults will become virtues,
all that she lacks will become perfection.
Her everything
will be what you've always desired.
To me, love is not a necessary item, it's just a luxury.
If you fall in love with someone you shouldn't love, even if it's true love,
you still shouldn't continue on.
Rather than wasting time on that,
why not find someone suitable for yourself?
What if you don't love the person who suits you?
Then I'll pretend to love her.
Pretend? Then you're leading her on, lying to her.
Lying to her would be lying to yourself.
Real and fake, fake and real.
Without longing, won't it become neither fake nor real?
The way you think is really too negative.
A person with no love
is pretty pitiful.
Don't look at me like that.
Like what?
You—
How am I looking at you?
Tong Si Ji, hit me.
If you don't hit me, I'll kiss you.
What are you saying?
Why did you want me to hit you earlier?
Were you drunk earlier?
Nope, don't misunderstand.
Usually, men don't use their brains to think about problems.
I often call this the "brainless mode".
But for me, the chances... the chances of this happening is very low.
- Did you want to kiss me because you were "brainless" before? - Yeah.
Otherwise, why would I come up with that kind of ridiculous idea?
Xiang Yang... is he being "brainless" too?
Then why do you always appear by my side?
Because you have to repay me.
No, you're the one who follows me.
I have?
Of course.
But, I can understand. A man as outstanding as me.
It's still allowable for you to have some imagination.
But it's only limited to your imagination!
The kind of woman I'm looking for is one with full marks and exceptional.
You... you've already failed before the eugenicists.
Am I that bad?
So, does he see me that way too?
What are you saying?
You wouldn't know.
It doesn't matter anyway.
You are already a married woman
and a woman with a child.
Me?
Are you talking about Niu?
She's Xiao Dong's daughter.
My younger sister, at such a young age,
has a very casual personality.
It's inconvenient for her to work outside while taking care of a child.
That's why I take care of Niu.
But my younger sister is very, very kind.
It's just that... she keeps meeting men who lie.
That's why she became a single mother at a young age.
It's really pitiful. I'm very worried about her.
If you're worried about her, who will worry about you?
Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand.
We are...
We're from two different worlds.
I know.
We will never become friends.
You and I are from two different worlds
We will never be friends.
Let's go.
Says who?
For you, I could break that. We can be friends.
Why?
Because... I've actually missed my chance with a really good friend.
I don't know why, every time I see you,
I always remember her.
What's with this?
Are you having a war in this room?
Grandma look at this.
How is it? I did a good job, right?
Good, what's good?
I had a tidy room.
All of you, really!
Tong Xiao Chun!
- I...I— - Stand right there!
Stand right there. Come over here.
Where did you bring this girl back from?
What kind of person is she?!
Your older sister is working so hard outside,
she still has to come back to tidy up this mess for you.
Is that right? Is that right?!
Grandma, violence won't solve anything.
Stop with your rubbish.
Hurry and tidy all this up.
Otherwise, I won't have mercy on you.
Hui Hui, I beg you to stop making Grandma angry
Or else the unfortunate one will always be me.
I didn't.
I'm just working hard on the program for finding a warm home for lost dogs.
Come. Come. Come here.
Sit. Sit. Sit right.
I'll show you something.
This is the guideline I made.
Look at it. Is it ok?
Do I need to fix anything?
Either way, I think they'll be very satisfied.
They will definitely support it.
Tong Xiao Chun,
here, hold it.
I've decided
I'll have you be my ambassador.
Ambassador?
I... I... I...
Then I have to transfer the pictures onto Weibo.
I'm pretty photogenic, right?
That's not right.
Your facial expression doesn't match up.
Says who? I think it's pretty good.
Xiao Bao?
Xiao Bao, let me take some pictures, ok?
Here, look at sister.
- I'm going to take a picture! - No!
-No! No! - Stop moving! Come closer!
- Stop, it'll turn out bad. - Stop! No! Older Brother!
Xiao Bao! Hey, Xiao Bao!
- Hold it. - Oh.
Here,1... 2... 3!

What?
I look pretty good, right?
I want you to look right there.
There, look there.
We only have one fan!
Tong Xiao Chun, how are we supposed to get noticed?
How are we going to save these roaming animals that are suffering?
I don't care, you better think of a solution for me.
Me...
The problem is probably your appearance.
Your appearance is the problem.
No! I must make Xiao Bao my ambassador.
Xiao Ba--
I'll go open the door.
Appearance problem?
Xiang Yang.
Older Brother, Xiang Yang.
No way!
Older Brother Xiang Yang, why are you here?
Come in! Come in!
I'm looking for Si Ji.
Older Sister Si Ji! Older Sister Si Ji!
Brother Xiang Yang is looking for you!
Have a seat, Brother Xiang Yang.
Older Sister Si Ji!
Have some food while you wait.
- Brother Xiang Yang, don't hesitate. - No need, no need.
What are you looking at?
You came just in time.
My girlfriend and I are doing a rescue project for runaway dogs.
Look.
There.
No way! Stupid Xiao Chun!
Hui Hui, what are you looking at?
Hey! Hui Hui!
Let me introduce
my friend, Brother Xiang Yang.
Hui Hui?
Hello, hello! Xiao Chun's friend.
My name is Cheng Hui Hui.
It's nice to meet you.
That... I heard, you're Sister Si Ji's childhood friend.
Are you single? Are you alone?
Are you married or do you have a fiancée?
Hui Hui! Stop talking nonsense.
I am asking for clear answers for you.
Just in case if you were lied to.
Hui Hui, how could Brother Xiang Yang be a liar?
That's hard to say. You guys have been separated for so long.
How do you know how he's been living recently?
Do you... know Brother Xiang Yang really well?
I don't! I don't! I am just guessing, right?
Xiang Yang, why are you here?
Grandma called me, she said--
Oh I know, I know, Grandma probably called you
and she must have told you to ask Sister Si Ji to go out and play, right?
Sister Si Ji, then let's quickly get you changed into something pretty.
- It's rare for Brother Xiang Yang to come here. - But I have to run the shop today...
No need. Brother Xiang Yang has already come, you should go change!
Change into something pretty!
Xiao Chun, I'm a little thirsty, I want a drink.
You're thirsty? I'll go pour a glass of water for you.
I want a drink.
Ok. Ok. I'll go buy it for you.
Brother Xiang Yang, what would you like to drink?
- No need. - Then what do you want to drink?
- Coke? - Whatever. Just go.
- What's going on? - It's as you can see.
Right now, you can tell Grandpa all of my current whereabouts to your heart's content.
I can also tell Sister Si Ji,
that you're the fiancé that Grandpa chose for me.
Cheng Xiang Yang, I didn't think I would find out such a big secret about you.
The picture you always hold in the palm of your hand every day is... Sister Si Ji?
Sister Si Ji, I told you to change,
but you really have changed into something very gorgeous!
Right, Brother Xiang Yang?
How am I gorgeous? Don't babble.
- Where's Xiao Chun? - He went to buy a drink for me. Not important.
Sister Si Ji, since you've changed, why don't you hurry on your date?
Xia Lin, can we go home?
I think it's boring, the clothes here are ugly.
It's your perception of beauty being different to everyone else.
My perception of beauty is different from everyone else?
Look at how everybody is looking at me, they all think I'm so pretty.
Hi! Your baby is so cute.
Alright, alright.
Let's go. Let's go.
Oh right, Xia Lin.
I have't heard you mention that prince in a long time.
Are you talking about Yi Yi?
He is just a weird person. He is mentally abnormal.
Abnormal?
You're planning to give up on him already?
Of course not!
I'm planning to start with his mother.
Wow, for being with him,
you're really going to use any and all kinds of tricks.
Is this man that good?
For now, he seems so.
Then... I remember you met up with Xiang Yang.
You've always liked Xiang Yang.
But he's not the old Xiang Yang.
Is he crippled?
Of course not!
He's handsome.
Then... oh!
He doesn't have any money.
So you think you won't get anything in return if you invest in him now.
Mei Le Di,
Xiang Yang and I aren't what you think.
I won't see him like I would see ordinary men.
Ordinary men?
What you mean is, he is now...?
Definitely not, what are you thinking?
Let me say it this way, there are some kinds of people,
that no matter what happens,
they will still have a perfect image in your heart.
To me Xiang Yang is like that.
Just that he's forgotten about me.
Just sniffing around you,
it smells entirely like love.
To me, the smell of bread attracts me more.
And to me, Yi Yi...
smells just like that.
Smells like bread?
I'm hungry.
Eating is the most important thing to me!
- I want to go eat something. - Go then.
- Shopping is so boring. - I'll go find you later.
Goodbye.
- Auntie! - Xia Lin.
Why are you here?
Are you looking for Yi Yi?
No, I coincidentally came to shop.
My friend went to eat.
Auntie, you have such great taste.
This shirt looks especially unique.
It suits you.
Is that right?
You think so too?
Of course!
When you match this together, the color of your skin is going to look even pinker.
It seems,
your tastes and mine are quite agreeable.
Right.
That day, didn't you say you'd come have dinner at my house?
How about you come over tomorrow night?
If Auntie doesn't mind, I would be glad to.
Xiang Yang, about Grandma calling you... I'm really sorry.
You can actually ignore her.
I didn't have anything to do today anyway. It's not bad to come and take a walk.
Si Ji, you're usually always working,
you probably don't have time to date, right?
Me?
Who would want to date me?
Actually... I did date a guy,
but you know how it is with my family.
I still have to take care of Niu. Who would be able to take it after some time?
Looks like, you've spent all of your much-valued youth on your brothers and sisters.
That's not it. Since, compared to dating,
I think family is more important.
Let's talk about you,
have you dated?
I don't have a girlfriend.
You don't have a girlfriend?!
How?
You have such a great background.
Si Ji, Hui Hui said...
Hui Hui?
Don't mind what Hui Hui said.
Blame it on Grandma, she wants me to get married.
Whenever she sees someone, she always wants me to get together with them.
I'm not saying that you're not good,
I'm just saying...
Just... don't take what they say to heart.
Si Ji... what Hui Hui said wasn't wrong.
What?
I already have a promised marriage.
You have a promised marriage already?
But, didn't you say earlier... that you didn't have a girlfriend?
In the time we've been separated
a lot has happened.
We are not the Si Ji and Xiang Yang from before anymore.
Right now, I can't give you any promises.
Si Ji.
Huh?
In my heart, you're a friend who I care for, a lot.
But...
we can only be friends.
You want to adopt me?
Yes.
Since you have nobody to rely on now,
then come to the Cheng family.
I can let you live a life without worries,
I can let you study and become a useful person.
But why?
I'm asking to borrow money from you, but you're even asking to adopt me?
I... I don't understand why.
Because I need you.
I need you to watch over my granddaughter.
Hui Hui hasn't grown up, she still a little sister.
Xiang Yang, Hui Hui isn't your little sister.
She's your fiancée.
I already have a promised marriage.
In my heart, you're a friend who I care for, a lot.
But we can only be friends.
Okay, I can see you already.
Are you going to do business or not? You don't care or ask when a customer comes.
Did you break up with your boyfriend?
You really did.
But isn't this a good thing?
Whoever breaks up with a woman like you can get their life back at least.
If you became tangled up with them,
then... it would be endless troubles for them.
What are you talking about?!
Can't you say something nice to hear?
Wipe your mouth. Wipe it.
It's not clean enough.
What are you doing?
I've had enough, a woman like you,
how could you not care about your image at all in front of me?
No wonder you had a break-up.
Yes, yes, yes. You're a glorious swan, not a lowly toad.
I never tried to get close to you, so there's no need for me to pretend in front of you.
I'm telling you,
the person who often says nice things in front of you may not be your friend.
But those who often say bad things in front of you,
may very likely be a person good to you. Good advice is unpleasant to hear, got it?
So tell me, why you broke up? I'll give you some advice.
Forget it. For my kind of lowly love,
I'm afraid of breaking your ears if I say it out loud.
It's fine. I've already made my mental preparations. I'll wash my ears out when I go home tonight.
He said we're just friends.
We'll never become friends.
Says who?
For you, I could break that. We can be friends.
Why?
Tong Si Ji!
You like me?!
Are you sick?
You're too narcissistic! With your narcissism, you should really take it to a doctor.
I love you? You and me?
Do you think it's possible?
Also, I know my position.
I don't want to be yours.
I will never step through your eugenics theory''s door.
Tong Si Ji, you're the sick one!
Angry?
Mr. Swan, don't be angry.
What is this? How dare she reject me like that? I am Yi Yi from the Yuan Xian Department Store!
How many women are there hanging on to me and not letting go?! That brainless woman!.
Mom.
You rascal,
didn't I tell you to come home early today?
So do you know what time it is? Where are you?
Mom, who's the important guest who is asking for my presence?
Didn't I tell you Xia Lin's coming over for dinner?
You better get home.
Ok. Ok. I know. I know. I'll be home in a bit.
Timing and subtitles brought to you by the Gone With the Shirt Team @ Viki
Yi Yi is just too much.
I tell you, it's already after work, but he's still going about work business. Wait for him a bit more.
It's alright, Auntie.
Actually, I came especially to talk with you today.
Xia Lin, you're such a good lady.
You have a good background and don't have a terrible temper.
Auntie, you've over-complimented me. I'm not as good as you say.
It's because my parents are usually overseas,
so every time I see you, I'll remember my mother.
I'm sorry! Did I offend you by saying that, Auntie?
How so?
I really wish to have a daughter as pretty as you.
Auntie, I'm the one envious of you.
How do you maintain your appearance so well? Can you teach me?
Hit it!
What are you guys doing?!
Don't hit it! Don't hit it! Don't hit it anymore!
Don't hit!
I told you I wouldn't let you off.
This is the result of you wronging me!
Don't hit anymore! Don't hit anymore! Don't hit anymore!
Don't hit anymore! Don't hit...
Boss, let's go! The police are coming!
Stop!
Don't move! Stand up!
Leave!
My coffee truck!
Are you ok?
My coffee truck is gone.
Don't cry, Tong Si Ji. I hate it when woman cry.
What about my coffee truck?
Ok! Ok! Ok! I'll get it fixed for you, ok?
[Emergency Center]
Bear with it.
General Manager, are you ok?
Yi Yi, what happened?
Mom, I'm ok.
I'm sorry, it's because of me, he's like this.
Who are you?
Why did our Yi Yi become this injured?
You must be the lady who met with Yi Yi at the coffee shop, right?
Yi Yi, you told me you had nothing to do with her.
Why do you still keep letting her bother you?
Mom, I'm ok.
Why did you bring my mom?
You're fine?
Xia Lin and I were waiting all night at home.
We haven't even had dinner yet.
Why did you bring Xia Lin?
I told Auntie I wanted to come.
Yi Yi, I was worried about you.
Did you hear? Xia Lin is worried about you.
Were those guys caught?
I've already told the lawyer about following up the process.
These bastards... I must sue them until they become nothing.
Yi Yi, I think you should just leave it alone.
Leave it?
My dictionary has no "leave it".
If they can hurt you today, they might do something worse tomorrow.
I can't just leave it as is.
Older Sister, are you really alright?
I'm fine, you should go home.
I got a call from grandma a while ago, I told her I had some things to do.
When you get home, don't tell her about me getting hurt, ok?
Then, I'm going home first.
Go.
Why did you come together with that kind of person again?
If your dad knew about this.
Mom.
How old am I already? Can you stop minding me so much?
If I don't care then who will?
Let Mom ask you, what is your relationship with that lady?
If I remember correctly,
last time at the cafe, she was holding a child.
Guan Yu, I want to drink water.
Don't change the subject, finish talking to Mom.
Take them away, the same way you brought them here.
Chairman's Madam, I think General Manager needs to rest.
I'll drive you and Xia Lin back first.
I won't leave.
My head hurts!
- What is it? - I want to rest for a bit.
Auntie. Auntie.
How about we go home?
If you have anything to say to him, let's wait until he gets better.
Look, it's Xia Lin who understands.
I've let you wait long today. I'll treat you to a meal another day.
Alright.
Yes, Chairman's Madam. Let's go back first.
- Auntie, let's go first. - Fine, fine, fine.
I'll leave.
I'll leave, ok?
Auntie.
Why are you still here?
Whatever you say Yi Yi was still hurt because of me.
So, I'm a little worried.
Yi Yi doesn't need you to care.
Tong Si Ji,
I still have debts to calculate with you. Come over here.
Hurry and send Chairman's Madam away.
Let's go.
Auntie, let's go.
Is your injury, ok?
I'm fine.
It's you, I didn't think you would get so seriously hurt.
I'm sorry.
What's the use in being sorry? I think I must have owed you in my last life.
- I came to repay it in this lifetime. - You—
Now that they've all left, are you ok here by yourself?
Of course not!
You've made me this seriously injured! Are you not going to care if I live or die?
What else can I do?
Your medical fees...
My...
and my coffee truck.
That's why you need to repay with physical labor.
- Repay with labor. - Yeah.
You don't have a cent, so what can you do? You can only do this.
Xia Lin, sorry about today. You've come for nothing again.
Auntie, didn't Yi Yi say, he's going to treat me to a meal another day.
Don't misunderstand, there's nothing between Yi Yi and that lady.
There's definitely nothing. Yi Yi is only a girl who sells coffee.
Guan Yu, let's drive Xia Lin back first.
Auntie, no need. I can go home by myself later.
- How could that be alright? - It's okay, Auntie.
I have to buy things later, how about you both leave first.
Then, ok.
Be careful on the road.
Wait up!
Tong Xiao Qiu!
You're Si Ji's younger brother,
Tong Xiao Qiu, right?
Right.
I'm your sister's co-worker.
I remember you, didn't you come to the He Hua Dumpling Store before?
It seems Si Ji and I are especially fated.
I actually came to visit a friend this time, but I happened on you.
Are you a doctor at this hospital?
I...
I actually don't count as a doctor yet.
I'm an intern at this hospital.
Actually, I'm just a little worried about my friend.
The doctor said he's fine, he can probably leave tomorrow.
But his mother hopes that he can be observed a bit longer.
I understand.
Then if you don't have anything else, I'll be leaving.
Ok. Bye-Bye.
Bye-Bye.
Xiao Qiu, we're twins.
Why don't you recognize me too?
Come in!
Grandfather, are you okay?
I'm fine
What's the matter?
I've found Hui Hui.
- Really? - Yes.

Standards for being a good disciple and child, from the Ancient Sages, be filial to one's parents. Then to one's elders,
be trustworthy, cautious, and kind. Draw closer to those who are good.

Standards...
I just think that Yi Yi is abnormal. To say that it's because he's being justified and brave, it doesn't seem like him.
To say he's being nosy, it doesn't seem like him even more.
Yi Yi's rebellious nature has never changed.
Right. He goes right when you tell him to go left.
But I'm not forcing Xia Lin on him either.
I don't know what happened for a lady named Si Ji to jump out from nowhere.
Say, Yi Yi won't like that girl named Si Ji, right?
Du Juan, people
are not separated by poor and rich. As long as they have a good nature,
family background and wealth is only secondary.
How could family background and wealth be secondary?
That woman even has a child, you can accept that too?
Why does it matter if I accept or not?
We're not the ones who will have to live with that woman forever.
Du Juan, I think we should support Yi Yi's decisions.
I believe that kid won't use his future as a joke.
I just can't accept it anyway.
No matter what, Yi Yi's future wife still has to call me "mother".
If he gets a girl like that, how will we keep our pride when we go out?
You only know how to overthink things every day.
You have wrinkles.
- Really. - Where?
Right there.
Where?
I was joking with you.
My wife still looks like a 20-year old girl.
Why would you have wrinkles?
You're a person who looks younger than they are.
What you mean to say is, that you'll get rid of me once I'm old, right?
What I meant to say was, even if you have wrinkles
and are old, I still won't abandon you.
