[Breath of Destiny]

[Episode 26]

[Dr Li, I'd like to ask
a favour from you.]

[Please scan a high-resolution copy]

[of my checkup report for me.]

[Okay?]

[Thank you.]

I record my periods every month,

and they come regularly.

Regular flow, too.

There shouldn't be any problem.

It's here, Dr Huo!

Go!

Move it, everyone!

Dance, dance, dance!

Let's dance!

Sis Yue, get down here!

What's with the commotion?

We've got two lions here!

Okay.

Come here.

Make sure you cooperate with them later.

I've just known about it, too.

Anyway, this is a joyful event.

Accept their gratitude.

What's the joyful event?

See for yourself.

This is our local custom.

Whenever we have a celebration,

we'd invite the lion dancers.

It's similar to your customs.

Celebration? What celebration?

You're the Goddess of Children.

Goddess of Children?

What Goddess of Children?

See for yourself.

[To Dr Zhou Yue, Goddess of Children]

This is from the families
of the seven ladies

who gave birth here yesterday.

Take it.

Thank you, thank you.

Hello, Dr Zhou.

We'd like to take a photo with you

so that everyone would be blessed

-with fertility and more children!
-Wait...

Go, go!

Make way!

-Stand here.
-Take a photo.

One, two, three, smile!

Dr Zhou.

Everyone said you're
the Goddess of Children.

You're an auspicious presence.

I'm anxious.

I'm only two months pregnant,

but I'm worried that everyone
would request for you later,

so I'm here now.

It's good that you're
aware of prenatal checkups.

Thank you.

That's all for today.

Thank you, Dr Zhou.

It's okay.

No, don't do this.

You...

Come out here.

Come out, now!

Now!

Hurry up!

What is it?

Here, over here.

I have other things to do.

Dr Zhou.

Dr Zhou.

Please bless my wife so
she gives birth to a chubby son.

Sons and daughters are the same.

I can't bless you,

but I can wish the best for you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're a goddess.

Look at this.

They used to pray to
the witches for children,

and now they're praying to Dr Zhou!

This is unbelievable.

Calling me a goddess is crazy enough,

and now they're praying?

Look, it reads the skillful goddess...

No, the skillful fairy.

Goddess sounds better.

No, I'm going to...

Help me take this.

-No, keep it.
-This is ridiculous.

Dr Huo.

Here, offer some incense.

Zhou Yue.

You need to cooperate a little longer.

Respect the local customs.

Listen.

Don't behave impatiently, got it?

-I'm not impatient.
-Enough, I'm busy.

I'm going back to work.

Continue.

Bye, Dr Huo.

Why don't you try having people
pray to you for three days...

Don't be impatient.

Faster.

Offer yourself some incense.

Come on, pray.

You can pray.

Then, I...

If I want to pray for a child...

Why, I'd look for you.

[To Dr Zhou Yue]

Wang Xiao Cong!

Look!

Fresh starfruits!

Freshly plucked.

They're sweet and cooling!

Where did you pluck them?

From the woods behind.

I often go there to pluck wild papayas.

When I went there today,

I saw that the starfruits were ripe.

Zal does have its advantages.

We can't buy such
fresh fruits in my country.

It feels like food drops from the sky

even if you lie down here.

Really?

If you like them,

I'll pluck fruits more often.

Okay.

Dr Qiao.

Right, bring these to the canteen

and share with the doctors.

Dr Qiao, Dr Zhou, Dr Liao.

Let them try these, they're fresh!

Okay, okay.

Xin Lu, hold these for me first.

I still have something to do.

I'll take the fruits from you later.

Aren't you going to the canteen?

Doctors are supposed to contribute
more than other people.

Doctors are supposed to handle stress
better than other people.

[Don't you understand that?]

[To think you always
act like a strong, eager girl.]

Since you have the guts to jump off here,

and even

say "I love you" to a man
you've known for a few months,

don't you have the guts
to face the rumours?

Coward.

What's up?

Dr Qiao.

Jumping off this building.

You jump, I jump.

Why would Ms Qiao,
who gets everything she wants,

want to leave this fancy world so soon?

Right?

I know you're upset because
Ah Min lashed out at you.

She was too sad,
that's why she lashed out.

But, I just can't forget

that Jin Lei's life ended in my hands.

At first...

I could've saved him.

But I wasn't good enough.

Had I noticed in time

and admitted him
when he first came here,

perhaps the result
won't be like how it is now.

You can't take the entire
blame for Jin Lei's case.

Let's go.

To where?

You'll know when you're there.

Let's go.

Xiao Cong.

[I had an operation till late last night.]

[I'm going to send you
a high-resolution copy now.]

[By the way, how's your work
as a foreign aid doctor?]

[I heard you've been through
lots of terrifying incidents.]

[Take care.]

Why can't I open it?

This is the closest spot to the router.

The Internet here sucks.

I'll fork out more money, then.

I'll use the local SIM card.

Still can't open?

Wu.

Wu.

Dr Zhou.

Why did you come from there?

You bought fish?

Look how fresh it is.

It's alive.

It's for dinner.

How do you want it done,
steamed or braised?

Any will do.

But, Wu.

Your cannon doesn't seem to be working.

Why don't you take a look?

Later, I'll fix it later.

Where are you taking me?

It's just right ahead.

-Right ahead?
-Let's go.

Nurse Wang.

How did you find this place?

Nurse Wang?

Nurse Wang?

Wang Xiao Cong?

Wang Xiao Cong?

Wang Xiao Cong!

Coming!

Where did you go?

Why are you so frantic?

You think I'd lose my way here?

Who's frantic?

You're smiling?

What's this?

Here.

Starfruit.

Starfruit?

It's fresh and fragrant.

If you like it, you can have them all.

But, Nurse Wang.

Do you always carry a bag with you?

Yeah.

Why don't we check out what's in front?

Xin Lu told me that
there are wild fruits here,

but I didn't know there's a huge
flower meadow here too.

Feeling better now?

Who said I was feeling bad?

Hey, you're a local,

and you've been working
in the hospital for months.

And you don't know
there's a Shangri-La right here?

I've never been to those woods before.

My dad and brother wouldn't let me
go to dangerous places alone.

You've never even been there.

How would you know that it's dangerous?

After passing through, quoting you,
those dangerous woods,

there's a big flower meadow here.

Come on.

Stop pulling a long face.

We may be around the same age,

but I must lecture you.

About Jin Lei,

yes, we're all upset over his death.

But, I think that you shouldn't
consider it an absolute disaster,

like how you thought
those woods were dangerous.

It's not that absolute.

You mean it's good that someone died?

No, that's not what I meant.

Jin Lei's treatment was delayed
because he refused to be treated,

so we couldn't save him.

Then, have you considered why

he didn't come to the hospital
even though he was chronically ill?

He loved Ah Min and his children so much.

If he knew that his illness
would cost him his life

and strip his family of
their only dependence,

then he would've agreed to be admitted.

The problem is that

Jin Lei didn't know his illness
would cost him his life.

He had to work and fend for his family.

Everyone was sad when
they heard about his death.

His colleagues said that

if they knew Jin Lei's
illness was so serious,

they would've forced him
to go to the hospital.

So, if Zal has a complete medical system

that provides annual checkups
for people like Jin Lei,

if Jin Lei had some
basic medical knowledge,

then he wouldn't have ended up so.

How did you know that Jin Lei was working?

His colleagues chipped in
some money for him,

and your brother sponsored
a substantial amount of funds too.

but since Zal's medical
facilities are limited,

Ah Min and her children went to
Maribor's hospital for a full checkup.

After all, Jin Lei had
a history of drug abuse.

Ah Min didn't do any checkups
when she was pregnant, too.

Doing this can protect the children
and her health to the fullest

so they won't follow
in Jin Lei's footsteps.

Why didn't I know all these?

Why didn't my brother call me
to tell me everything?

You've been looking glum the entire day.

You probably didn't know
you lost your phone.

I picked it up in
the canteen this morning.

The battery's flat.

You don't even know when you lost it.

Dr Daniel even called for you on the PA,

and you didn't respond.

Everyone in the hospital knows

except you.

The Dr Qiao I know

is a strong and brave girl.

She's also a kind and skillful doctor.

Good doctors don't look glum all day.

Thank you, Nurse Wang.

Come on.

You can call me Xiao Cong or Cong.

Both are acceptable.

Thank you for counseling me.

I have nothing to thank you with.

Wait, you don't have
to offer yourself to me.

I'll treat you to a meal.

Come to my house.

I haven't eaten at home
for a long time, too.

Sure, your wish is my pleasure.

Auntie Lan, what are you doing here?

What are you doing? Get up!

Get up.

Dr Zhou.

The police just told me
that they have a case,

and they're taking Ah Ruan for a few days.

Did Ah Ruan do something bad?

Also, I heard that you're
friends with that policeman.

Can you put in a good word for me?

Auntie Lan, please get up first.

Get up.

Let's talk properly.

Why do you ask that?

Is there something that you know?

Some time ago, he bought a car.

I found it strange.

It's like he just earned a lot.

But, I don't know where he got the money.

Then, he refused to let me
come for my prenatal checkups.

After that, strange things
kept happening in the village.

I feel so scared.

But...

But, I don't know what he has done.

Don't overthink.

Now that you've just given birth,
take care of yourself.

Take care of your health, okay?

Dr Zhou.

You're from a big city.

It's easy for you to say that.

But, all of us here are traditional.

If Ah Ruan gets thrown into jail,

my baby and I can never
hold our heads up high.

Dr Zhou, please help me, okay?

I will. Stand up first.

Get up. I'll help you.

I'll help you, okay?

Calm down and listen to me.

If Dr Ruan didn't do anything wrong,

the police won't do anything to him.

But, if he did something wrong,

no one can plead for him.

Fine.

I won't force you.

I'll only beg you this.

If the police come and ask around,

can you avoid mentioning
about Ah Ruan and me?

Well, I don't really understand
about the both of you,

so how about this?

If the police ask me,

I won't babble about things
that I don't really know.

Okay?

I'll take that as a yes.

Thank you.

Thank you, Dr Zhou. Thank you!

Thank you, I'm going now.

Thank you, Dr Zhou. Thank you!

Thank you.

Auntie Pan, he's so handsome!

Dr Qiao, why don't I help you?

No, it'll be done soon.

Drink some tea first.

Don't feel awkward.

Make yourself at home.

Okay.

Ms Qiao's boyfriend is here?

You brat.

Don't spout nonsense.

Auntie Pan, he's really handsome.

Auntie Pan.

I know him.

Back at the hospital, Sister told me

that he's a male nurse.

Auntie Pan, have you dug up the ginger?

Coming.

No need, Auntie Pan.

I'll do it myself.

Since we're here, just skip
the usual fuss at the mansion.

We don't have so many rules here.

Go and take your lunch.

Xiao Liu, go.

Okay.

Let's go.

Time for lunch.

What kind of life are you leading here?

You have so many servants here.

It's been like this since Daddy was here.

I don't like it, either.

Since I went to boarding school
when I was a teenager,

I'm not used to it now.

Ever since Daddy passed away,

this villa has been mine.

But, I don't stay here often,

so it's usually empty here.

The servants heard that
I'm bringing a man here today,

so they came all the way from
the mansion to look at you.

So, the gentlemen
who visited you in the past

had to go through such melodrama?

Then, your boyfriend...

Your male friends must be so stressful.

There's none in the past.
You're the first one.

When Daddy was still alive,

my male schoolmates and friends

didn't dare to visit me at home.

So, they must have gotten
the wrong idea today.

They thought you're my new boyfriend.

What's this?

I hope it's not some exotic food.

I'm not used to that.

Open it and see.

It's just a simple bowl of fried rice.

Are you disappointed?

No.

Try it.

I added some salted fish inside.

I'm digging in.

How is it?

Is it delicious?

There's also soup here.

It's made from winter melon
and dried shrimps.

Then, this is sweet and
sour pork with pineapple.

This is kailan stir-fried with ginger.

Auntie Pan wanted to make more,

but I didn't let her

because I made them all myself.

It's a token of my appreciation.

You can cook?

And you cook so well.

I love cooking.

It was Auntie Pan who taught me all these.

Eat more.

It's alive?

Why is it alive?

Come on, Fishy.

Wait for it, Fishy.

-Wait!
-What?

It's alive. Look, it's still breathing.

I know it's alive. I need to knock it out!

No, it's a life too.

It can feel pain.

Stop breathing.

No.

Just anesthetize it.

Get an anaesthetist to do it, then!

Come on!

No, don't do it!

-Liao, stop that!
-No!

Go figure something up.

What are you doing?

Killing the fish.

It's alive.

I really don't understand
why Wu would buy a live fish.

I thought the fishmongers
would kill them first.

Live fish are fresh.

What are you thinking?

So, what should we do now?

Are we really going to
whack it like you planned?

Let me do it.

Bear with it. Close your eyes.

Close your eyes. I'll count to three.

We'll think of some other way.

-One, two...
-No, no.

Wait.

Keep it as a pet, then.

Keep it. Name it, even.

Then what?

You...

Look.

No, no!

Don't do it.

What are you looking?

What's with you?

Kill the fish, of course.

She won't do it.

We'll leave the rest to you, then.

Dr Liao, how's the fish coming along?

Zhou Yue's cooking it now.

Perfect timing.

Let's listen to Xiao Cong's recount

of his adventure in Zal.

It's showtime!

Listen.

When I stepped into Dr Qiao's villa,

it was dazzling like a palace.

Oh my God.

That chandelier

was this huge.

It was hung right in front of you.

Then, several servants would surround you.

Desserts, fruit platters, beverages,

everything was prepared.

Then, they would stand behind you.

Eww.

Cong, you're behaving
like a country bumpkin.

Am I a country bumpkin?

Can I be a country bumpkin?

But, this time,

it was really different.

I was exploring the depths

of a Southeast Asian tycoon's daily life.

It can't be compared to our usual life.

It's truly different.

It's just the nouveau riche lifestyle.

Is it comparable to the legacy of our
5000-year-old Chinese civilization?

Exactly.

Cong, your story sounds like
it's straight from a movie.

It seems that Dr Qiao is
from a crazily rich family,

so why did she come to this hospital

and become a poor doctor?

She's even living in this dorm with us

and enjoying our homecooked meals.

Seriously.

Now, that's something you don't know.

Her brilliance.

The brilliance of humanity.

How is Dr Qiao the same

as those real nouveau riche

who cover themselves with branded stuff

while making themselves
look like stupid bimbos?

They're not the same, of course.

She's from a noble family.

And after three generations, too.

Dr Qiao's noble aura
has always been in her,

bursting like an explosion.

Cong, enough.

Don't burst your saliva on me.

It's like it's raining in this house.

Another thing.

She can cook too.

Two dishes, one soup, fried rice.

She whipped up everything in a flash.

-And it's delicious.
-Really?

It's as if she's a cooking fairy.

All the girls I've met

don't cook as well as she does.

Xiao Cong.

You're laying on a bit thick, aren't you?

Exactly, Cong.

Matron Xu cooked for you
for so many years,

and I've never seen you
praise her like that.

How is that the same?

Cong, tell me the truth.

Do you have a crush on Dr Qiao?

Do you?

Cong.

Do you really like Dr Qiao?

Why are you asking like my mum?

This isn't important.

The key is whether Dr Qiao likes you back.

Ask him.

Sis Hong.

What are you knitting?

A hat and a sweater for Little Dumpling.

Looks nice.

Sis Hong is obviously a knitting expert.

I am.

I knitted sweaters
and hats for my son too.

Back then, after working in the day,

I would go back home and knit at night.

Even until midnight, I didn't feel tired.

When I put on the sweater on him,

I'd forget all about my exhaustion.

Now that my boy is all grown up,

he's saying that my sweaters look ugly.

He won't wear them now.

I heard he even has a girlfriend now.

I thought that children
would never leave you,

but now I know

that he'd leave home one day.

This feels so...

It's good that your son's all grown up.

-Yeah, don't cry.
-It's okay.

I'm not crying. Who's crying?

Be happy.

Come on, Wu.

Why mention about that?

You spoiled the conversation.

No, I...

Yeah, yeah.

It's my fault.

How about this?

I'll cook more food tonight
at my own expense

to make it up.

Make sure it's your signature dish.

No problem, order away.

I'll make anything you like.

Okay?

Why are you looking at me?

Never seen a woman cooking?

Surprised?

There are many women who can cook,

but it's rare to see one who's
sometimes aggressive, sometimes gentle,

sometimes calm, sometimes crazy,

who can use their hands to operate

and cook at the same time.

It's rare to find someone
who can praise so sincerely too.

Did you learn that from courting girls?

I don't court girls.

Girls court me.

Unless she's no ordinary girl.

Unless she's a fairy.

What?

Feeling touched?

It's done.

Who made these?

♫ Gently, you come closer ♫

This...

Who made these?

Yeah.

Not me.

They're so exquisite and beautiful.

Yeah.

♫ The ice on me ♫

What a talent.

It must have been a fairy.

♫ Your petty desires ♫

A fairy was here?

♫ Your playful antics ♫

♫ How happy ♫

Catch me.

Enough, get up.

♫ I want to be with you
from sunset till sunrise ♫

Weren't you watching me from the sides?

I was looking at your face, not the fish.

Then, I just saw this
exquisite table of food.

It really is the work of
an excellent doctor.

♫ Dragging you to the rooftop ♫

♫ Embracing while counting stars ♫

You mean fairy.

♫ Whispering sweet nothings ♫

The work of an excellent fairy.

♫ I want to be with you
from sunset till sunrise ♫

Help me cook.

♫ Be it smooth or bumpy ♫

♫ The best vistas ♫

♫ Are all in your eyes ♫

-Dr Huo.
-Dr Huo, here.

What's with this?

Guess.

Guess?

No.

There aren't any Chinese festivals today.

Is it a local festival?

Xiao Cong, invite the local
doctors and nurses here.

No?

No one's celebrating their birthday today.

Guess.

Again?

That's enough, stop guessing.

Sit down.

You'll know soon enough.

Here.

Dr Huo, you're here.

Here.

Fish tail soup.

Did you make these?

I made them.

Feeling scared now, Wu?

Wu, it's a job crisis.

It's well done, really.

What are you celebrating?

-Here's the rice.
-I just wanted to cook something.

We're not celebrating anything.

Everyone's here?

Other than cooking the rice

and killing the fish, which I did,

everything was cooked by Dr Li

who suddenly went bananas

and decided to cook.

We're not celebrating anything.

That's all.

That's good.

Now, let's try Dr Daniel's cooking.

Dig in.

Yeah!

Dig in.

Let's try this first.

This is my signature dish.

Let's support Daniel
by eating more tonight.

How long has it been
since you last cooked?

Did you forget to add salt?

It's too spicy.

You didn't add salt
to all the dishes here?

You...

Didn't you add salt?

You didn't remind me to add salt.

No, but...

Salt is...

Salt?

It just tastes blander, right?

Let me try.

It's delicious!

Right?

Dr Huo.

Dr Huo loves it.

I eat bland food.

It suits me.

Dr Huo, here you go.

Still, don't forget to add salt next time.

No.

Dr Huo, eat more!

Let me take for you.

I have a question for everyone.

Wu.

Salt should be added last, right?

Yeah.

Salt should be added last.

Wait, let me get the salt.

Get the salt.

Get the chili sauce too.

-Okay.
-And the soy sauce too.

Okay.

Here, dig in.

Liao.

You guys were having so
much fun at the dining table.

How nice.

Cooperation is necessary
in this line of work.

One doctor cannot
complete an entire surgery.

Once you work together for a long time,

naturally, we become family.

Family?

How nice.

Do you think that love
can change everything?

Or is it because you haven't
had a home for a long time,

and you've been longing for a home?

You find it exciting and interesting,

so you wanted to test
the waters on Zhou Yue?

What do you mean?

Nothing.

I'm just calmly analyzing your thoughts.

So, let me ask you this.

Your experiment of accepting a new home,

will it be successful?

What experiment did you say?

You're desperate for a home now,

but if your plans fail,

you will continue wandering around,

looking for another exciting idea.

What about Zhou Yue?

Zhou...

No, what do you mean by,
what about Zhou Yue?

You're not considering
about your responsibilities.

A mature man should think
about his responsibilities first

when he's facing the woman he loves.

Then, tell me. What responsibilities?

Before you start a relationship,

you should determine
the gap between both of you.

Would you complement her?

Would you hurt her?

Who can guarantee that no one
would get hurt in a relationship?

Then you're irresponsible.

-I...
-Love is not cooking.

You may get impulsive
and forget to add salt,

but you can make up for it.

You're talking about that?

In love, you're facing someone else.

If you love her on impulse

yet don't have a backup plan,

you can never make up for it.

If that's the case,
you might as well not start it.

Why think about a backup plan?

-You...
-Don't fall in love, then.

It's a waste of your life

and a waste of her time, right?

Enough!

Who are you to lecture me?

-I...
-Mind your own life.

I...

Hey, wasn't it you who
wanted to discuss about love?

Liao!

What's with that weird tantrum?

Are you kidding me?

I'm not.

I'm testifying against

the sales manager of the fridge company.

All the fridges in the village
are sold by them.

Of course I'm testifying against them.

Sir.

With no proof in hand,

do not threaten my client.

Who doesn't know that
the fridge was faulty?

The sales manager is responsible.

But, a small manager like him

can close a huge deal like this?

Amazing.

Now that things have gone awry,

he even has the power to make

the Health Department and
the police to clear his mess.

As a state's witness,

you're testifying against
a mere sales manager?

Are you kidding?

This is what you police should do.

Sir, please mind your tone.

Otherwise, I can sue you for
inducing false statements.

My client has made it clear.

He was wrong for not
reporting about the case,

but that was just because
he was timid, trying to avoid trouble.

About Hank,

he did it out of compassion and pity.

Can't you police understand
what's compassion and pity?

That's because you're
entitled to special powers

that allow you to be ruthless.

You can't even understand

the fact that he's
trying to avoid trouble.

Sir.

Just because my client

won't admit a name
that you're looking for,

that doesn't mean you can threaten him.

This is called forced confession.

My client is a principled
and moral-abiding citizen.

He will not become a tool for you
to attack your political enemies!

You shut up!

Hit me if you dare.

Relax.

You think I'm a female lawyer,

so you can bully me, right?

The government is setting up
a commission for gender equality.

Why don't you try me?

Enough.

Take him out.

Careful, it's hot.

Dr Zhou, you're here.

How's she doing today?

Feeling good?

Not bad.

Drink more water.

Sip slowly.

-Dr Zhou.
-Auntie Lan is discharged?

Yes.

After Dr Ruan was arrested,

she's been feeling down,

insisting on going home.

It's good for her.

It can distract her attention.

She's already recovering well.

Yes.

I'm going back to work.

Okay, go ahead.

This...

This, it's mine.

Mine.

Ah Ruan gave it to me
on the day I gave birth.

Don't worry, it's still here.

It really was from Ah Ruan.

Then, he was taken away by the police.

If you don't believe me, ask him.

I didn't say I don't believe you.

Relax.

Then, don't ask further.

Dr Zhou.

Can you keep this a secret
from everyone else?

Especially that policeman.

I know you're a kind person.

You've helped me once.

Just help me another time.

Please.

You're a doctor.

I'm sure you can sympathize.

I'm going.
