1

Once upon a time, there was a planet far away in outer space.

2

The environment there was almost the same as Earth's.

3

So, of course, there were aliens living on it.

4

After a long process of evolution, those aliens

5

established their own civilization.

6

One day, their scientists predicted that their galaxy was going to collapse.

7

To escape, they immigrated to other planets in the universe by spaceship.

8

And one group of them came to Earth.

9

They called themselves the Fox Clan.

10

Ancient men on Earth were shocked when they saw them.

11

An ancient book reads that a huge ship-like object flew above the western sea.

12

The people in it wore crowns, had white feathers all over their bodies, and flew high in the sky with no wings.

13

That is the first impression the Fox Clan made on humans.

14

To adapt to the environment on Earth, the Fox Clan never stopped evolving.

15

Finally, they began to look like humans and gradually fit in with them.

16

Since ancient times, the conflict between humans and the Fox Clan never ended.

17

There was a government proofreading official named Dai Fu,

18

who was especially interested in the love between foxes and humans.

19

He believed love could overcome everything.

20

After Dai Fu died, his son collected all of the stories he had written.

21

He called it "Guang Yi Ji" and had it published.

(The Great Book of Marvels)

22

It was quite popular among its readers.

23

After storytellers added more details, the stories spread even further.

24

But humans began to fear foxes, instead of just being curious.

25

Foxes noticed that humans were getting less and less friendly.

26

They had to hide their identity in this world.

30

Lord Qingmu.

31

Go back. I don't want to see you.

32

Princess Zhaoyan,

33

I have an urgent favor to ask.

34

Please, give me a chance

35

I beg you. Please save this child.

36

He has human blood in him.

37

His body is feeble.

38

Also, his eyes...

39

I'm afraid he won't last long.

40

Human blood?

41

You didn't save Xiyan,

42

but you ask me to save this half-breed?

43

Hurry up and get lost!

44

And...

45

don't ever... mention my sister again.

46

Princess Zhaoyan, there is a reason for you to save this child.

47

Your current physical condition is not good.

48

I noticed that your heart rate has increased from three beats a minute

49

to three in 55 seconds.

50

When did you get here? I didn't notice.

51

Are you all right, Lord Helan?

52

Are you all right?

53

Something is strange.

54

When I think of Guan Pipi, I lose all motivation.

55

This has never happened before.

56

So unusual.

57

Let me research your symptoms.

58

You're absent-minded and lack energy.

59

You have a hard time concentrating when you work.

60

These are typical symptoms.

61

At a time like this, humans use numbing substances,

62

such as alcohol, to ease their pain.

63

But I don't suggest you do that.

64

Firstly, alcohol

65

will cause the brain to enter an irrational state.

66

That only leads to dangerous behaviors.

67

The recent incident with Miss Guan is an example of this.

68

The second reason is similar to the first.

69

Alcohol will make your brain... No, not the brain.

70

Alcohol will make your body uncomfortable.

71

Zhao Kuanyong, when did you start speaking so much nonsense?

72

Do you have anything important to add?

73

I do.

74

Please, don't drink, Lord Helan.

75

Drinking will cause bad effects on your body.

76

Do you have anything important to say?

77

Lady Qianhua sent me a voice message on WeChat.

78

She said the full moon is coming soon and she's leaving for the north.

79

Fine... Fine.

80

What did you say she sent you?

81

- A voice message.

- What is that?

82

Sending one's voice across the air.

83

When did you guys learn to do that?

84

I think you should familiarize yourself with this era, Lord Helan.

85

And this era's APPs.

86

Mr. Helan, have you heard of the Mingyue Tribe of Qing Liu?

87

That is a really ancient name. I'm not familiar with it.

88

Over a thousand years ago, that family had two princesses, Zhaoyan and Xiyan.

89

Within Fox Clan, they were considered quite beautiful.

90

I have heard this before.

91

Princess Zhaoyan is Princess Xiyan's sister.

92

She is one of Fox Clan's capable females.

93

Although the Northern Fox Clan has never said anything about it,

94

she is rumored to have died.

95

Princess Zhaoyan didn't die. She's still living in the north.

96

She's under Lord Qingmu's watch.

97

You can't speak such nonsense.

98

Princess Xiyan succumbed to illness.

99

Her sister Zhaoyan then died of chagrin.

100

With no heir, the Mingyue family line ceased.

101

Why would they still be in the north?

102

Why are you here?

103

Qianhua told me to come, so I came.

104

But, truly, if this Princess Zhaoyan is still living,

105

she would be a very wise elder.

106

She has been hiding for too long.

107

What does this have to do with you?

108

It has nothing to do with me.

109

But if you plan on going north without me,

110

you guys will face many problems.

111

You must have spent a lot of time looking at this map.

112

But why didn't you ever come to the north to see it for yourself?

113

This map is just a sketch

114

that was drawn by a kid 200 years ago.

115

I advise you not to waste your efforts.

116

Zhao Song,

117

why does every word coming out of your mouth sound like deception?

118

So, don't believe my words.

119

Take this map, drawn by a kid, and find it.

120

I heard Princess Zhaoyan is the only one who knows how to use the Golden Flower Mirror.

121

In the past, Lord Qingmu fervently made a request of her.

122

No need to ask what it was about.

123

- If you know anything more, can you say it all at once?

- What else do you want to know?

124

Every day you're by Qingmu's side.

125

You don't know of his problems with Princess Zhaoyan?

126

Xiyan... should have been the one...

127

who had anything related to the old man.

128

Don't worry, Brother.

129

Qianhua will tell you if she finds anything.

130

Zhao Song...

131

I put my Pearl of Charm on her to protect her.

132

You should know the Northern Fox Clan members have bad attitudes and personalities.

133

Not to mention that you have a marriage agreement with the Tushan Family.

134

Qianhua.

135

Let's go.

136

Qianhua,

137

be careful.

138

Auntie, is Pipi home?

139

- Auntie, Pipi's door is locked.

- Here, I'll open it for you.

140

Thank you, Auntie.

141

Pipi?

142

Pipi, you're almost becoming a vampire.

143

Come on. I'm taking you outside.

144

Get up. Get up. Get up!

145

- What?

- I'll take you outside.

146

Where are your slippers?

147

Why did you lie down again? Hey!

148

Right now. Immediately. Go outside!

149

Lord Helan hasn't gone out for a while.

150

Qianhua isn't here. Who else would he look for?

151

Guan Pipi.

152

Good morning, Lord Helan. Do you want to eat?

153

- I'm not eating.

- You're not hungry?

154

I'll pour you some water.

155

I won't drink.

156

I'll drink a glass.

157

Oh, okay.

158

Say... Are you all right, Lord Helan?

159

I'm fine.

160

Do you feel bored, Lord Helan?

161

I'm not bored.

162

In the past when you were bored, I read you poetry.

163

Choose one and I can read it to you.

164

Read this one.

165

- Are you sure you want to listen to this one?

- Yes.

166

This is from Pipi's magazine office.

167

"The male celebrity, Qinkai's love affair was uncovered.

168

He got money from his wife and gave it to his lover.

169

The male celebrity, Qinkai,

170

and his wife, Zhang Feifei, who is younger than him by ten years, are having a marriage crisis.

171

He was even caught dating a 30-year old Ms. Wang, in the south.

172

Not only did they book a hotel room, they are also suspected of being intimate in a car.

173

Recently, Qinkai did a television interview.

174

He was asked if this really happened. He even cried while he was on live TV.

175

Ignorant onlookers watched the spectacle in joy."

176

Lord, do you know what "ignorant onlookers" means?

177

Lord? It's being lively?

178

Let's eat instead.

179

Sure, let's go eat.

180

I'm starving to death.

181

Pipi, let me tell you a joke. Today, I heard a joke.

182

A man was arrested for making counterfeit money.

183

The police asked him, "Why did you make counterfeit money?"

184

Guess what the criminal said. He said, "I can't make real money."

185

Pipi, don't be so down. What's wrong?

186

I've probably been sleeping too much lately.

187

Cheer up, okay?

188

Don't waste the healing plan that I arranged for you.

189

What did you arrange?

190

The Four S's are the most effective way to heal a woman.

191

The first "S" is Shopping.

192

Take a look at this, Pipi.

193

Put this on, Pipi.

194

And the bracelet.

195

Look. It's Helan Jingting, Pipi!

(T/N: The coat is fox fur.)

196

How is it? Isn't it pretty?

197

It seems so good. Wear this.

198

How is it? I think it's not too bad.

199

Isn't it smooth?

200

I'll look at this one.

201

Hey.

202

What's wrong?

203

Jialin​ likes this brand.

204

Let's go.

205

Do you have roses? I want to eat roses.

206

I'm sorry, Lord Helan. You didn't specify what type of flowers you wanted, so I didn't prepare any.

207

Right. Plus, it was Valentine's Day a few days ago.

208

The roses are all sold out. It was expensive when we went to buy some, so

209

- we didn't buy any.

- You also know about Valentine's Day?

210

I know because he told me about it.

211

In ancient times, young girls would ask the Weaver Girl for good sewing skills on Chinese Valentine's Day.

212

I don't know when it became Valentine's Day.

213

Why are there so many activities that involve getting flowers nowadays?

214

And on Valentine's Day, couples must ride the ferris wheel to show off their romance.

215

- That's also too much.

- I'm not eating.

216

I want to ride the ferris wheel!

217

The second "S" is Sweet.

218

You know I don't like to eat sweets.

219

I already searched Baidu for you. Research shows that,

[Baidu is similar to Google.]

220

the rich sugar and starch in these foods will make your amino acids produce

221

- more...

- What kind of acid?

222

Amino acid is... Anyway, it'll make your brain happy!

223

All of this? You want me to eat all this?

224

Of course. Science shows that eating sweets will make you happy so you'll definitely be happy.

225

- If I eat a lot of this, I'll gain weight. How would that make me happy?

- You won't.

226

It's fine. We can eat a lot this treatment. We will deal with weight in our next treatment.

227

Here. Ah...

228

Don't you want to eat some for awhile?

229

I'm dieting, didn't you know?

230

You're on a diet, yet you are making me eat all this.

231

Pipi!

232

Swallow it. It's really expensive!

233

What's the matter?

234

This is the third "S." Sport.

235

Science shows that by exercising, you'll burn off the calories.

236

Who's this Mr. Scientist? Is he close to you?

237

Of course, I'm close with him.

238

Science also shows that when you exercise, the brain releases endorphins.

239

You'll be able to relax and be happy.

240

Look at what I've prepared for you.

241

Here, give it a try.

242

Forget it. I'm really fine.

243

Don't worry. Although my mood isn't good, it's not that bad, either.

244

I don't believe you.

245

Really, don't worry about me.

246

Tao Jialin​! Why is he calling you?

247

Don't pick up!

248

Hello? Jialin?

249

Pipi, it's me.

250

Are you okay these days?

251

Yeah, I'm pretty good. How are you in America?

252

Are you getting used to the food there?

253

If it doesn't work for you, eat a hamburger with black bean paste.

254

I wanted to tell you I'm sorry.

255

Hmm, I know.

256

I feel really sorry toward you.

257

You also look after your body and your health. Goodbye.

258

Hello?

259

See! I said I was fine, right?

260

I still don't believe you.

261

Well, you play by yourself. I'm going home now.

262

Huh? We still have the fourth "S"!

263

What is the fourth "S"?

264

The fourth "S"... You can't have it by just hearing about it.

265

Go home first and dress up. Wait for me.

266

Wait for me. Wait for me!

267

You've gone around once already, mister.

268

Sir? Sir?

269

Mr. Helan?

270

How about letting him stay there? I'll buy another ticket.

271

Yes, okay, then.

272

Is anyone there?

273

- What is wrong?

- If a girl is heartbroken,

274

is there any way to make her recover faster?

275

Why are you asking me?

276

Excuse me?

277

You guys have lived for hundreds of years. You should be experienced.

278

How did you know I'm experienced?

279

I have never gotten along with any other girls.

280

That's right. He's never dated.

281

But you guys are plastic surgeons, which means you know about ladies.

282

It doesn't matter. Just help me come up with a plan.

283

I didn't do anything wrong, right?

284

No, no, no. What usually makes you happy?

285

When I become slimmer.

286

When someone says I got prettier.

287

When I get promoted and get a salary raise.

288

What do you usually do after a breakup?

289

- I will eat sweet foods.

- Sweets.

290

- Chocolate.

- I go to the gym.

291

Go back to my ex.

292

I will find a way to numb myself. If I drink, I usually drink four or five bottles.

293

After a breakup, I'd get plastic surgery.

294

You get plastic surgery to heal your wounds?

295

Cry: cry while eating, cry while sleeping.

296

I will redo everything.

297

Cry everything out. Afterward, I feel much better.

298

It's not to heal my wounds. If he doesn't want me,

299

it must be because I'm not pretty enough.

300

Hey, it could be because your personality isn't good, either.

301

Hurry up and prescribe my medications! I have things to do!

302

Xiuxian? Xian, baby.

303

Hello?

304

I asked around about those things you told me the last time.

305

- How did it go?

- According to my research, there are a few options.

306

First one is to eat.

307

- Already ate.

- Then, exercise?

308

We've exercised already.

309

If you tried exercising, then try plastic surgery.

310

Pain is scary.

311

Then there's only one method left.

312

What method?

313

- Cry.

- Cry?

314

Pipi has already cried.

315

Not the crying where there are only a few tears. That won't work. It needs to be

316

sobbing as hard as you can.

317

It's a good, wailing cry.

318

I love you, Jack.

319

- So touching.

- Don't you do that.

320

Don't you say that...

321

Eat some good food.

322

I'm so cold.

323

- Don't you feel touched?

- You're going to get out of here.

324

- It's quite touching.

- You're going to go home.

325

Then why are you not crying?

326

I don't cry when I watch movies.

327

That is because you are not focused.

328

How about Tao Jialin​? Do you cry when you think of him?

329

I'm fine. I don't want to cry.

330

When Tao Jialin​ called you earlier, what did you talk about?

331

We didn't say much. He asked me how I've been recently.

332

Oh.

333

Do you feel sad when mentioning him?

334

It's okay.

335

Then do you have any other thoughts of him?

336

No.

337

I wish him the best.

338

Wish him the best?

339

What about Tianxin?

340

I don't want to mention her.

341

Imagine Tianxin and Tao Jialin​

342

in America. They are still a new couple and obsessed with each other.

343

Do you want to cry when you think about that?

344

No. Let it be.

345

You don't feel anything when you think about Tianxin?

346

Only a little bit.

347

But it's not an upset feeling.

348

Then it's hate?

349

I don't hate her.

350

Now that I think about it. If Tianxin was not by my side during high school,

351

I'm not sure how I would have gotten through it.

352

I'm quite thankful to her.

353

Everything Tianxin has is something I'll never have,

354

but the good thing is that Jialin also kept me company back then.

355

I was quite blissful.

356

But he is no longer here.

357

Pipi...

358

Do you know that

359

Tianxin is like a mirror to me?

360

She let me see inside myself and see reality.

361

Every time I was with them, I would feel nervous.

362

I wanted to work hard to do everything right.

363

Now it's much better. Whenever I'm by your side,

364

I can relax and be myself. I feel happy.

365

Pipi...

366

Even I'm crying. How come you are not crying?

367

It's all right.

368

Silly, I know you are worried about me.

369

But I'm really fine.

370

But I want you to cry it all out. It will make you feel better.

371

I really can't cry.

372

Food is ready, Lord Helan.

373

May I ask if there is any misunderstanding between you and Miss Guan?

374

Why didn't you answer your phone on Chinese Valentine's Day?

375

That day, she asked me to go out and have fun.

376

- You and Mr. Helan went out? Then you guys--

- So it was

377

Miss Guan herself who asked you out?

378

Then, that was a date!

379

High-class restaurant, dinner dress and roses, too?

380

So, the things you wanted to do with Tao Jialin​

381

you did with Mr. Helan?

382

Lord, did you eat human food?

383

He ate those foods in front of you. Then, he spit them all out behind your back?

384

No wonder you wanted to eat roses today.

385

What a kindhearted man!

386

I think Miss Guan treated you like...

387

You even asked him to read that letter?

388

My poor Pipi.

389

Head downstairs first.

390

All right.

391

So far, we have tried many methods, but none of them could make Miss Guan feel better.

392

- Miss Guan still couldn't cry it out?

- Nope.

393

Well, if that's the case, there is still the last "S" we haven't tried, yet. Right?

394

The fourth "S" might need Lord Helan's help.

395

Does this "S" bring much joy and satisfaction

396

to your human bodies, spirit

397

and perhaps even their own "S"?

398

So much gibberish! How else would you heal?

399

Wow, then I can't do it. You do it. I wouldn't be able to ask him that out loud.

400

What is it that you won't be able to ask aloud? For Lord Helan, this

401

should be very easy, right?

402

Do you want to give me his phone number and let me ask him myself?

403

I actually can feel

404

Pipi probably has already thought of...

405

Hello, Xiaoju. What's wrong?

406

Where are you?

407

I'm still at home.

408

I just sent you a package.

409

What is it?

410

Never you mind, just remember to accept it. Bye.

411

[NK Site]

412

Miss Guan Pipi, you have a delivery.

413

Hello, Miss Guan. Please, sign your name here.

414

All right. Thanks.

415

- Goodbye.

- Thanks.

♪ Arrived at Chang'an on a late night

453

♪ Crops and dreams ringing in the dream

454

♪ Only an empty city was found and a broken dream

455

We meet again today.

456

Sorry.

457

That night on Valentine's Day, I mean. I'm sorry.

458

No problem. I have been there, so I understand how you feel.

459

By the way, why did you come to watch the concert today?

460

Xiaoju told me to come.

461

Then, you probably haven't heard of A'Gui before. Right?

462

Do you like him a lot?

463

He's my favorite singer. I really like his songs,

464

but the feeling he gives off is so mysterious.

465

He sings so well, but he's bad at promoting himself.

466

He only does small concerts like this one.

467

Then, which song is your favorite?

468

The one he sang just now, "Vermilion Bird Avenue."
