[Imperfect Love]
[Episode 16]
Did Shang Wu kidnap you for this?
Is it true about what you said in the video?
No.
Li Ze forced me to say it.
Li Ze's there too?
It was me who set the fire.
Because...
after our marriage,
he was using strange ways...
to torture and humiliate...
me and my child.
Stop taking photos of me.
Stop it.
I couldn't stand him anymore.
If Li Ze didn't die,
my child and I would...
live in hell forever.
But...
he didn't die in the fire.
He hated us even more afterwards.
He thinks that...
it isn't enough for me...
to stay in jail for 15 years.
He even wants our daughter...
to suffer from guilt in her entire life.
He's insane.
If we could find...
the films left by Li Ze,
it'll prove that...
Xu Zhi and you were...
abused by him for a long time.
Has anyone else watched the video?
Don't worry.
No one has seen it.
You must be worried that Xu Zhi watched it.
Lin Xu Zhi is your lost daughter...
you mentioned before.
That's why you denied that...
she went to the warehouse...
and took Mu Lian Sheng away.
Xiao Guo.
Since you don't have the evidence,
how could you interrogate Aunty Zhong...
in this manner?
If you think about it,
you'll know what's going on.
Please don't be foolish.
Why should I?
I can't see your point.
Why don't you catch Shang Wu...
who kidnapped Mu Lian Sheng?
Why are you...
still suspecting Lin Xu Zhi?
Xu Zhi...
really didn't go to the warehouse.
I'm worried that she might be in danger now.
Both Li Ze and Shang Wu are abnormal.
The email mentioned that...
if we don't publish the video...
within one hour,
Shang Wu will publish it.
I know what to do.
Mom.
You'll be late for work,
if you're still not moving.
Yi Zhi.
Do you really want to be a single mother?
You'll have fewer choices in the future.
Look at that mother and daughter.
They're your mirror.
Anyhow, we can't...
make perfect preparation for life.
Why don't we look forward?
I'll give birth to my child.
And...
be a good mom like you.
After all, we can't...
break the curse for the women in our family.
We have to give birth to the child and raise it on our own.
Take care of our own child.
Exactly.
If we're able to pregnant ourselves,
we don't even need a man.
[Guo Dong]
Who's that?
It's a spam call.
You're going to be late for work.
It's not the style of...
the CEO of a listed company.
Let's go.
Come.
Aunty Zhong.
What you said in the video is fake.
Could you...
record a video...
to reveal the truth?
Even if Shang Wu publishes this video,
we could clarify to the public.
What do you think?
My name is Zhong Hui.
36 years ago,
I was married to a man called Li Ze.
Is she falling asleep?
Mom.
I'm sorry.
Xu Zhi.
It's my fault.
I...
I'm not a good mom.
Mom, please don't say that.
Listen to me.
Come.
Actually, I've known this person.
She's Zhong Hui.
The reason why I held back from you...
is because I'm afraid of losing you.
I have no idea how she found me.
She came to see me suddenly.
After adopting you, I was worried that...
a woman would appear one day,
declaring herself as your biological mother...
and wanting you back.
As time went by,
nothing has happened.
Hence, I was relieved.
I had almost forgotten...
her existence.
Mom.
Frankly, I've decided...
not to go with her even if she comes for me.
I just want to ask her...
why she abandoned me.
I won't tell you the reason.
I'm afraid you might hate me after knowing the truth.
I was selfish then.
I found a photo of you,
a photo of you smiling...
and showed it to her.
I wanted her to know that...
how happy you're staying with me.
I'm happy to stay in this home.
Really?
But I don't have any confidence in myself.
It took me quite a long time...
to find a photo of you.
I know I'm not good enough.
Mom.
I'm really happy...
to be part of this family.
It's your love for me...
to feel like staying in a real home.
But I...
always...
felt lonely.
Mom.
Look.
Sister has been drawing this,
she's not doing homework at all.
Focus on your work.
Don't disturb your sister.
Xu Zhi.
I know.
Drawing is your way to relax.
It's good to have...
a balance between work and rest.
Mom.
I was drawing on the workbook last time...
and was found out by you.
You had punished me to copy those vocabulary for 100 times.
Why you don't punish her?
You're partial.
Mom.
It's my fault.
Come.
Sit down.
Copy the text...
10 times.
I want to have a look too.
How could you?
Mom.
I'm fine. Please don't do this.
I guess...
you won't believe that...
when I saw you scolding my sisters,
I was jealous.
As I thought...
that was how a family should get along.
Your tolerance for me has made me feel...
like an outsider.
No.
When you first came,
you looked pensive.
I was thinking...
if I gave too much pressure on you?
I hope you could grow up happily.
I care about everything you like.
After your sisters were born,
I was afraid you'd feel that...
my love for you had lessened.
Hence,
I'd put you in priority.
It turned out everything I did...
was in contrast against my wishes.
What a loser I was.
No, mom.
Because...
of my behaviour,
I also kept my thoughts...
without expressing it.
As you always do.
But there's something I have been curious about.
You studied at Forestry University.
Why did you go into the IT field...
after you graduated?
Because of birds.
In my memories,
it causes me to fear.
My choice was wrong again.
I always think that you like birds.
Look.
We two have too much misunderstanding about each other.
If we could turn back the clock,
let's change the way to...
We can.
Could you not leave, please?
Could you?
Mom.
I couldn't.
I'll trouble you and sisters if I don't leave.
My name is Zhong Hui.
36 years ago,
I was married to a man called Li Ze.
I was married to a madman,
a pervert.
He didn't want his wife...
and child to be happy.
Instead, he preferred to see them...
crying,
raging and being mad.
He said that...
happiness wasn't real,
but suffering was.
He wanted us to live with the reality.
However, the reality he meant,
was to drive my child and I crazy.
Exactly,
He never hurt us physically.
But...
what he did to us...
was worse than killing us.
There's no gap...
between mother and her child...
to love and hurt each other.
-Almost every mother... -Moggy.
has scolded her child.
Why did she hack my account again?
However, I really can't understand why...
you all had attempted to...
kill your children.
Hence,
no matter where you are hiding,
I'll bring her away and...
always be her mother.
And never let you find us.
Thank you.
Search carefully.
Especially search for...
any films left here.
-Noted. -Noted.
Tian Fang.
Xiao Guo.
Take a look at my official website.
Lin Xu Zhi has run away again.
And she hacked my account.
She uploaded a video to this website.
What video?
She said...
she would bring Lian Sheng...
to a place where Shang Wu can never find them.
Shang Wu ran away too.
Perhaps they've watched it too.
Xu Zhi.
Could I go with you?
Mom.
You're sick.
You need treatment.
No, I don't.
I'm fine.
I'm very healthy.
Please go to the hospital.
Xu Zhi.
Where are you going?
None of your business.
I won't let you go this time.
Why?
Even if you bring me along,
this doesn't mean that you've forgiven me.
I'm thinking that...
two persons are better than one.
I can take care of Xiao Ou,
when you're busy.
Mom.
What's wrong with you?
It has been 30 years.
Still, she returns to her biological mother.
I hope that she'll be luckier than me...
after 30 years.
Xiao Ou will belong to her completely.
Who are you talking about?
Big Sister?
Granny Hui, let's get in.
Sure.
Come.
Where is she going?
Big Sister!
-Sure. -Be careful.
Bye-bye.
Yi Zhi.
Yi Zhi, can we have a talk?
We have nothing to talk about.
I've told you very clearly.
I know you're still angry with me.
I'm not, Guo Dong.
Do you think I'm still a capricious...
and cranky girl?
Fine, listen up.
What I've told you last time...
won't change. I've thought it over.
I've figured out your change.
But I prefer the way you were.
It's okay for you to be unreasonable.
In my heart,
you're always my princess.
Do you know why...
I wanted to be your princess?
Doesn't every girl dream to be a princess?
My ideal blessed princess...
is loved by the king and the queen.
But I failed to have this.
The first time I went to your home,
I saw your parents love you so much.
That's what I've longed for.
Yi Zhi, I never expect...
your great yearning towards my family.
I also never expected that...
your lovely family that I've yearned for...
is an obstacle to our happiness.
My child will also have to face the same problem as mine.
It's ironic.
No, Yi Zhi.
My parents will accept you in time.
They need time.
Please give me some time.
Guo Dong, it's not the problem of giving you time.
I can't lay my hope...
on others anymore.
My baby is growing.
I have to make sure that...
I have the ability to raise it well...
before it's born. Do you get it?
Yi Zhi, I understand what you're saying.
But you can't exclude me from this.
I'm also the baby's father.
Moreover,
I really love you so much.
My love has never changed.
I have no right to...
exclude you.
Love needs effort from both sides.
But in terms of being parents,
let's learn it individually.
For me,
it's more important to be a good mom...
than having a relationship.
If your thought is the same as mine,
you won't be excluded from it.
But I think you're not.
Thank you for your flowers.
I like it very much.
It's you.
Where's the monitor?
Monitor?
He is a policeman.
Really?
Luckily, I've thrown them away.
Tell me.
When did you throw?
Half an hour ago.
Frankly, I wanted to do that a long time ago.
Where are they?
I sold the monitor.
But no one wants the hard disk, so I threw it away.
Are you going to look through all the garbage?
There's a saying.
It needs someone to do the job even if it's dirty.
Enough.
How lucky you are.
Do you know where the bus is heading to?
Let me see.
To Beijing Station.
Granny Hui, let's sing together.
Sure.
