(Fate of Southern Love)

(Episode 19)

I just want to live like this.

Enjoying

these simple, free moments.

Every simple, free moment.

Come with me.

Prince Ning.

Jin Zhu.

You can't turn back now.

Let go of me.

I can't go back.

Jin Zhu, this world isn't as simple as you think.

Prince Ning.

I'll personally escort Lady Jin back to the palace.

What right do you have to stand by my consort?

Jin Zhu.

I've never been your enemy.

You just don't understand.

I'm sorry.

I have to take you back.

Chancellor, you're awake.

Luckily, a physician brought you back this morning.

- Otherwise, I... - Where's Jin Zhu?

Why?

Why am I back in the original storyline again?

No.

No.

- Your Highness, what's wrong? - No.

No.

No, it can't be.

- You may leave. - Yes.

(Shengkun Palace)

Why am I here?

Jing Yun told me

that you had a lot of interesting stories.

Your Highness, the wedding will proceed as planned.

Chancellor also somehow returned to his residence quietly.

Is that so?

(Make sure to find a way for me)

(to appear in the wedding night scene.)

(I'll personally erase Jin Zhu.)

We're out of time.

Speak.

Why did those two

fall from the palace wall and not get hurt at all?

And how

can this blade kill without leaving a trace?

And why do you

possess such dark and twisted skills?

Your Highness.

Prince Ning's wedding is near.

If the general forms an alliance with Prince Ning,

that would get in Your Highness's way.

That's our priority now.

Right now,

we need Chancellor Lou to kill Jin Zhu.

Then take me hostage

and control Chancellor Lou.

That way, all three of us will be under Your Highness's control.

Wedding?

She'd rather die than get married.

So why did she suddenly...

Due to Lady Jin's mistake,

you are now in a dangerous situation.

You have been plotting for years

to return to Jingdu for revenge, right?

The Empress already wants blood.

We can't let Lady Jin,

someone so unimportant,

mess things up for us.

Besides,

the one you truly care about

is Lady Luo Li, isn't it?

Right.

I

Care about

Luo Li.

Chancellor, you were missing for half a day,

but Her Highness won't pursue it further

as long as you finish what needs to be done.

Let Jin Zhu die in Prince Ning's Residence,

and you can prove your loyalty

to Her Highness.

- Chancellor. - If you refuse,

then Lady Luo Li

might not live to see another day.

Why are you so eager to send me back to the original storyline?

Why?

Zhou Nan Zhi, tell me. Why?

Say something.

If you follow the plot,

and get killed by the male lead on your wedding night,

then only your story ends.

But if you die by the Blade of Fate,

then you're gone once and for all.

You should know that.

Fu Gui.

Miss, how could you not recognize me?

But what if this time,

I can actually change things?

You think changing the story once will make a difference?

What do you mean?

This comic will just keep looping endlessly.

From the first chapter to the finale.

Then, it all starts over again.

Over and over. An endless cycle.

Even if you change things this time, so what?

What about next time?

You're still Jin Zhu,

the side character who dies on her wedding night.

No way.

Every time the story resets,

those who haven't awakened forget everything they've been through.

Even those who are awakened

will lose all memory of it

and believe it's their first time waking up.

Your Highness! Your Highness!

This is my birthday gift for you.

I hope you'll like it.

No matter what you do, I'll never like you.

What are you looking at?

I said, nothing you do will ever make me like you.

Your Highness, this is my birthday gift for you.

I hope you...

(This is the nuptial wine bestowed by His Majesty.)

Fourteen.

(This isn't your first awakening.)

(And it's not your first time trying to escape your fate.)

Jin Zhu has loved Nan Zhi deeply since she was little.

Today, I grant these children their wish.

No.

I don't want this.

- My lady. - Let go of me.

- My lady. - I'd rather become a nun

- than marry him. - My lady.

Let go of me.

And I

must kill you over and over on your wedding night.

The Princess Consort is having an affair!

Guards! The Princess Consort is having an affair!

A woman's worth isn't about purity.

You're the victim here.

Please don't hurt yourself.

I didn't do it!

Luo Li.

Because the story

has to follow the original plot.

You have to die as per your design.

The Princess Consort is having an affair!

Guards!

A woman's worth isn't about purity.

- You're the victim. - No.

Luo Li.

I didn't do it!

(Maybe you'll randomly remember something from before,)

(but you can't control what or how much you recall.)

- Luo Li. - Zhou Nan Zhi.

Listen to me.

- I didn't do it! - Luo Li.

- Luo Li. - (The rules of this comic world)

(won't change for anyone.)

(All you can be is the girl who loves the male lead and dies under his blade.)

I can't tell if it's a curse or a blessing,

but in every cycle,

I'll awaken.

And I have to watch you

keep struggling for nothing.

Jin Zhu.

No matter what you do,

the story will always start over.

All your resistance

will vanish with each new cycle.

If you ever go against the script,

the author's consciousness erases you completely.

After you're erased,

nothing in this world will change.

A new Jin Zhu will just take your place.

And the story keeps repeating.

Everyone and everything you changed by awakening

will go back to how it was.

And we'll all forget you completely.

As if you

never even existed in this world.

If I make sure you die in the story

before the author's consciousness does,

then in the next cycle,

you'll still be Jin Zhu.

Do you get it now?

I want to see Lou Si Yi.

Lou Si Yi.

Jin Zhu! Jin Zhu!

- Let go of me. - Jin Zhu.

- Jin Zhu. - Let me go.

No matter how hard you fight to change things, all the love and hatred,

every meeting and every parting,

will always be reset.

Lou Si Yi loves Luo Li.

You love me.

And I love her.

That's our fate.

Fengchun Palace stole forbidden medicine from the palace.

There might be trouble soon.

Chancellor, why not use this chance to get rid of someone?

Her Highness shall wait for your good news.

No.

This...

There's something wrong with this incense.

Now I can answer the question you asked me yesterday.

Compared to you disappearing forever,

enduring an unchangeable fate

is nothing.

Guards!

Escort the Princess Consort to the main hall for the ceremony.
