=Dark and Dawn= (The Unique Her: Women's Trilogy)

=Episode 22=

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Aren't you moving out with him?

If I move out,

what will you do all by yourself?

I'll be perfectly fine on my own.

I've got it all figured out.

The air here is so fresh.

I'll just retire here.

There are so many little animals around.

I love animals the most.

I think that's a great idea.

With the mountains and rivers here,

you can get a cat or a dog later.

Such a happy life for a family of three.

Ye Xiao'ai!

Stop talking.

Get out right now.

I can't stand looking at you.

Are you jealous?

Zhuang Lili?

How could I ever leave you alone?

I'll have them move here later.

We'll be together.

You're the most important person in my life.

Really?

Are you lying to me again?

I swear I'm not lying.

I don't believe you.

Lili.

Qun.

Qun,

what are you doing here?

I just came from the hospital.

Your dad...

He's gone.

When did it happen?

Last night.

Before he left, he told me to find you.

He said there was something important

that he had to tell you.

I don't want to hear it.

Lili,

don't be like this.

Xiao'ai.

What I'm about to say

also concerns you.

Before Xiao'ai's mom, Zhou Mei, got married,

she and Lili's dad, Zhuang Zhong,

had a relationship.

After she got pregnant with Xiao'ai,

Zhuang Zhong married Lili's mom instead.

To safely give birth to Xiao'ai,

she swallowed her pride and went back home

and married a simpleton.

Later, Zhou Mei's business failed.

She owed a lot of money,

so she went to Zhuang Zhong for help.

Zhuang Zhong,

I am really out of options.

Even if you don't want to help me,

think about Xiao'ai.

She is your daughter too.

Zhu Sha,

please let me explain.

Before I even met you,

I was already with him.

I was afraid of hurting you.

That is why I didn't tell you.

You have a happy life now.

I'm really happy for you.

I never ever thought

about ruining all this.

Disgusting.

I am truly out of options now.

Can you forgive me just this once?

This is the paternity test.

Your dad always regretted

not taking responsibility back then.

Ridiculous.

He regretted it now?

Then why ask for Xiao'ai back

on his deathbed?

He wanted to protect you both.

When has he ever protected me?

Lili,

your dad's biggest regret

was pushing you to Li Jin himself.

Did you know?

Dielian's bankruptcy wasn't an accident.

It was Li Jin

who orchestrated the whole thing.

What did you say?

Li Jin had long wanted you

and Dielian's patents.

He cut off the supply chain,

bribed the accountant to cook the books,

and then pretended to be your savior

so you'd willingly marry him.

Why did my dad never tell me?

He needed Li Jin's money for his treatment.

Liar!

They're all liars!

I've been such a fool.

I've been fooled for so long.

Zhuang Lili,

listen to me.

You have your bestie

and me.

You're not alone.

Xiao'ai,

if my mom and I had never shown up,

would you have

had a normal family

and a happy life?

If I weren't pretty,

would Li Jin not have fallen for me?

If Li Jin hadn't fallen for me,

would my life

not be completely destroyed?

Xiao'ai,

if I had listened to you earlier

and left Li Jin,

would I have suffered less

and found peace sooner?

Am I just a self-righteous

and unlikable person?

Would this world

be better off without me?

This world,

with or without you,

is exactly the same.

But my world

is better with you in it.

Zhuang Lili,

you are the most unique person

in this world.

Don't blame yourself for others' mistakes.

Understand?

Got it.

Wait a minute.

You've endured so much hardship

at such a young age.

So, heaven

will reward you with a piece of candy.

Is it sweet?

Yes.

So sweet.

Did you know all this?

Do you hate my mom then?

Of course not.

Everyone makes mistakes.

But your mom

is the strongest woman I've ever met.

She started a business on her own

and held the whole company together.

She's truly amazing.

If it weren't for her,

I might not even finish high school.

Her life wasn't perfect.

But she helped a lot of people.

Did you know?

Her biggest wish

was for you to have

a safe and happy life.

We owe you so much.

I don't deserve your love.

You do.

Everything I've done

is of my own will.
