(Episode 17)

Wei Chu

How come you're here

Dressed so formally?

I'll bring you to the Wei family general meeting

Is it ...

because of what happened earlier?

Mhm

Grandma wants me to, at the meeting,

clarify my relationship with you in front of everyone.

I want to bring you there.

Ok, let's go now.

Wait.

Do you have ... more formal clothes?

Is this not formal ?

Wear something else.

How about this one?

This one is formal, right?

Is that a pyjama?

Oh come on, I only have these.

Choose one.

Forget it.

I'll take you to buy some clothes.

Aren't we in a hurry? Just choose one, ok?

No arguing. Let's go.

Good day, Mr Wei !

Please come in.

What kind of clothes are you looking for?

For this lady, a slightly more formal set of clothes.

OK,

This way please.

I don't want

Just do it.

Doesn't this set look very womanly?

That lace is not bad right?

Can we stop fooling around?

This one is not bad, isn't it?

Red long skirt.

Go get changed.

Mmm, it's so comfy here.

Skirts don't suit me. Believe me.

Believe me too,

your leaning on me is making me tired.

Bro, how about this one?

Professional attire. Ding ding ding !

Look ! Look !

Go and change your clothes.

(song)

Come on, say something.

Please pack this set for me,

thank you.

No,

these clothes

don't look good on me. Besides,

it's a bit expensive.

Too late.

No more chance for you to choose.

You-

Let's go.

Nervous?

Mhm

How about we don't go. I'm a bit scared.

Don't be nervous, no matter what happens,

I'll be by your side.

Sorry to have kept you waiting, house leaders, and Grandma

This girl is Feng Bingxing's granddaughter?

Lineage holder Wei (Min), you said that the proxy lineage holder (Wei Chu)

wanted to hold a family general meeting,

and clarify in front of us, his relationship with the Feng family.

Now the lineage holder has come with someone from the Feng family as a couple,

Is this playing around with us house leaders?

House leader Wang, be calm,

Wei Chu, you and Feng Piaopiao sit down first.

No need. I'll just speak standing up.

A degenerate among the martial arts community. We disdain to accept you among our ranks.

That's right.

This girl is a Feng descendant.

Lineage Holder Wei bringing her to the family general meeting as a distinguished guest,

is a humiliation to us all !

Today, I called everyone here,

for the sake of dispelling

the family bias that has existed in the four major TaiJi clans for many years.

Your prejudice against Feng Bingxing and Feng Piaopiao

originated from the rule set by the ancestors

to only pass TaiJi down within the family.

Because of this rule, not only has our Wei family been insular for many years,

it's the same for the other three major families.

All these years,

not a single TaiJi grandmaster has been born.

If this goes on,

TaiJi will become hopeless.

Wei Chu,

isn't such an alarmist speech too presumptious?

After all, our four great families,

has relied on the rule of only passing down within the family,

to maintain the uniqueness and competitiveness of TaiJi.

If we were to open up,

then TaiJi will truly be in a mess.

But what if, a martial arts prodigy from outside the four families has been discovered?

If such a person is discovered, my suggestion is:

open our doors, and learn from one another,

injecting new strength into TaiJi.

The ancestors' rules must not be broken. Your words today have committed serious disrespect.

Go receive your punishment at the Wei ancestral temple !

- The proxy lineage holder spouting such insanity at such a young age, cannot be resolved simply with punishment. - Such arrogance!

Faithful words grate upon the ear.

If you all feel I am being arrogant in my youth,

how about we make a bet.

Wei Chu, enough.

You're called here today,

for you to clarify the issue of Feng Bingxing and Feng Piaopiao secretly learning TaiJi,

and clarify your relationship with Feng Piaopiao,

not for you to stir up trouble.

What is it you want to do?

Grandma, I want to

announce Piaopiao as my disciple.

If, at the nationwide martial arts competition, Piaopiao becomes champion,

you must acknowledge her as a disciple of the Wei clan.

If she loses,

I will quit my position as lineage holder of the Wei clan,

and never mention anything about the family again.

What do you think?

Champion at the nationwide martial arts competition? She?

What a delusion!

Alright, I do want to see,

what kind of disciple the lineage holder will groom her into.

In the coming nationwide martial arts competition,

by right,

the orthodox TaiJi lineages will send their experts.

Our candidates

would be either Xian-gu or me.

For her (Piaopiao),

the granddaughter of a mere degenerate, to defeat me?

Impossible !

Alright, then I invite everyone to witness

the discipleship ceremony between Piaopiao and I.

This is also,

my promise to her.

Piaopiao,

wait for me outside.

Wei Chu, you've greatly disappointed me.

Grandma, all this I've done, is not for Piaopiao

Breaking the family bias, carrying TaiJi forward,

has always been my dream.

And Piaopiao is fulfilling the first step of this dream on my behalf.

Like a termite shaking a tree. Overestimating your own strength.

Wei Chu, you're still too young.

This family bias,

is a rule set by the ancestors since early on,

not something you can break just because you want to.

I know, Grandma,

but

someone has to take this step.

This decision you've made today,

I hope you won't regret it.

Alright,

I'm tired,

Off you go.

Thank you for your concern, Grandma. I shall take my leave now.

Wei Chu.

It's fine now.

Let's go.

Piaopiao,

thank you.

For what? I didn't do anything.

It's alright.

Oh, right, Wei Chu

What you said the Wei household today,

was it true?

Of course it's true.

Why?

Not confident in yourself?

Of course I have confidence.

I'm just afraid that, if I don't become the champion,

then wouldn't you ...

If we don't do this, we won't be able to break

the family bias that has existed for so long.

Piaopiao,

don't think too much.

Actually, my purpose for doing this

is ...

Is what?

To develop and promote TaiJi.

hm?

To develop and promote TaiJi.

Oh.

And also

so that you

can stay by my side.

What are you saying?

What are you thinking?

I'm saying

for you to stay with me

and learn TaiJi openly.

Oh, right,

In a moment, prepare

for the discipleship ceremony between us.

There's still a ceremony?

Yup.

In order to keep you by my side,

is such a hassle.

By the way, why did you buy such expensive clothes for me?

You don't like it?

I like it.

That's good. Just take it as,

My reward for you after all this time.

Then, I'll go change now,

to go to class.

OK, come back early.

I still need to brief you,

about the do's and dont's for the discipleship ceremony.

OK.

Hey, did you know,

Wei Chu has been teaching TaiJi to Feng Piaopiao,

saying he wants to break some kind of family bias,

plus Wei Chu and Feng Piaopiao's happy occasion is not far off.

What's going on?

I heard Wei Chu proposed to Feng Piaopiao

What? So did Feng Piaopiao say yes?

Of course she did.

They've been in love for so long. Why wouldn't she?

You guys seem to be having a lot of fun,

talking about Feng Piaopiao and Wei Chu.

We ...

Don't you know, with a slip of your tongue,

if such a rumour gets spread around, the person you're gossiping about will be very troubled?

Xiao Xiao, you've misunderstood.

This was not spread by us, but confirmed with facts by the editorial department.

If it's confirmed by the editorial department, I would have known about it.

Here.

According to the editorial department's investigation, this news

was probably let out by the TaiJi faculty.

It got a confirmation from Wei Chu, so it should be true, right?

Besides, on the public account, there's a photo of them two.

The heroine is here. Why not ask her yourself?

Xiao Xiao, what are you looking at?

I ...

So it's ... true?

Wait, Xiao Xiao, I ... I just

hadn't thought of how to tell you.

Xiao Xiao ...

please let me explain !

Xiao Xiao

I really treated you as a good friend, but what did you treat me as?

The whole school knew this, and I'm the only one who didn't know.

Please listen to me, it's not that I don't treat you as a good friend,

but this while I've been so busy. I didn't expect them to love gossiping so much,

and how the rumour spread so fast.

The man himself even confirmed it. "Rumour", huh?

Xiao Xiao

No need to explain further. He's so important to you. Nothing I say matters.

Xiao Xiao, I admit,

it was wrong of me to not tell you earlier,

but I feel like

aren't you a bit too hostile towards Wei Chu?

Hostile?

I'm looking out for you!

Since meeting him, you've almost been expelled,

had rumours flying all over,

even had to take care of his everyday life ! Have you forgotten?

Actually,

it's not exactly like that.

He's ...

sometimes ...

quite nice.

Forget it!

Whatever I say, you won't listen. Go back to your Wei Chu !

Who's there?

Junior,

what happened to you?

It's nothing. How can I help you, senior?

Is Junior Feng here?

She's not.

Then can I trouble you to pass this chocolate to her?

Wish her a lasting happy union with the President (Wei Chu).

I've always admired the President,

but, since he already has someone he likes ...

I'm so envious of Junior Feng.

All your fault !

What happened?

Why don't you read how the Editorial Department has described our relationship?

They say you've publically declared that I'm your fiancee.

When Xiao Xiao found out, she was angry that I hadn't told her earlier.

Did this need me

to let out the news?

Since that time I,

in front of the family elders,

declared this thing,

The news ran off by itself.

But I saw the article saying,

they confirmed it with you.

The folks from the Editorial Department did indeed come to ask me,

I confirmed with my silence.

Sorry, regarding the public declaration,

I hadn't told you.

Declaring this publically,

is not necessarily a bad thing.

At least we have protection from the Wei family.

So when you come practice TaiJi at my place,

or represent TaiJi in competition,

there won't be any problem.

I know.

TaiJi ...

It's just for TaiJi?

But our feelings are a big thing too,

to announce it just like that ...

feels a bit too hasty.

Since we're now engaged,

then,

want to visit Grandpa Feng, together?

I'm not going.

I have class in the afternoon.

Alright, I'll go for class then.

Later,

what present should I give

to Grandpa Feng?

Thank you.

Thank you for your care.

For you to find time to visit me despite being so busy,

This old man is infinitely grateful.

Don't mention it.

Actually, today, I have something important

to discuss with you, Grandpa Feng.

What is it?

Come in.

This ...

A meagre present, for Grandpa Feng.

Your visit is enough, no need for rich presents.

These are all gifts for my engagement with Piaopiao. Please accept them, Grandpa Feng.

Oh, I see.

Everything you've done today,

is with Piaopiao in mind.

Ever since the declaration of the engagement last time,

I haven't formally paid you a visit.

Besides, after you were injured last time,

I've felt uneasy.

These gifts,

I hope they're joyfully acceptable to you.

With such an excellent grandson-in-law like you,

I can rest assured about Piaopiao.

Piaopiao is a kind girl,

just a little impatient,

can't face things calmly.

In the future, please

teach her more.

Don't worry, Grandpa.

For Piaopiao, I will give all my heart.

Good.

That is good.

We'll be one family after this.

Grandpa, I'm going off now.

OK, come often when you're free.

I'll cook something delicious for you.

Grandpa.

I thought you said you weren't coming?

I was a bit worried.

Piaopiao,

Henceforth, I will entrust you to Lineage Holder Wei.

What are you talking about?

About the engagement between you two, of course.

After this, we'll be one family.

We should get along well.

Don't worry, Grandpa Feng.

Ok, I'll go rest now. You two have a nice chat.

Grandpa-

Go to him. I'm going home now.

What?

Why not I accompany you home?

Still thinking about the engagement?

I feel it's happened too fast,

haven't gotten used to it yet.

Then quickly get used to it.

Aren't you being too hasty about feelings?

I'm serious about it.

I'm serious about it.

Go home now.

- I'm going then. - Bye !

Why are you still there?

Just go.

Good night!

If I go home now,

Grandpa will surely ask me about this and that.

Why not I go to Wei Chu. Go reason with him again.

You again.

Last time, you escaped. This time there'll be no more chance.

Wei Chu, beware!

Why did you come back?

I ...

I was worried about your safety.

See, this road ... so dangerous !

Alright.

I need to thank you then.

Let's go home.

Go home?

OK, go home.

What's wrong?

I never thought such a thing would happen.

It's over now.

Don't worry about it anymore.

But I keep feeling that figure looks familiar,

yet I can't recall who.

Don't think too much about it.

When the time is ripe, that person's real identity will be exposed.

Luckily I was clever, and took extra care,

or else something might have happened to you.

If you're by my side, such things won't happen.

OK, say no more.

I'll go get something from my dorm.

Go and come back soon.

That person in black

probably won't make another move within this short time.

Really?

Mhm

Come back early.

OK.

Feng Piaopiao,

I need to talk to you.

After we win the challenge rounds,

and get entry into the nationwide martial arts competition,

please don't go to take part in the competition with us

Why?

Did you know, because of you,

how much responsibility Senior Wei needs to bear?

This is between Wei Chu and I.

Between you and him?

This is a matter for the whole TaiJi community.

If you lose,

and the various TaiJi schools exert combined pressure on Senior Wei,

you do you expect him to handle it?

I hope you can believe in me.

Believe you? Then show me some real skill.
