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 on it wore hats, had white feathers all over their bodies,

13

and flew high in the sky with no wings.

14

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

15

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

16

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

17

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

18

There was a government proofreading official named Dai Fu, 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.

Subbing and Timing brought to you by the Love Knot Team @viki.com

30

Ah Xi.

31

Ah Xi, can you hear the birds singing?

32

Who are you?

33

Good boy, don't cry. Mother is bringing you home.

34

Mother!

35

Mother! Mother, don't leave!

36

Mother!

37

Mother!

38

- Mother! Mother, where are you?

- It's all right, it's all right!

39

It's just a dream. I'm here with you. I'm right here with you.

40

How many things have I broken this time?

41

Can you stop having all these nightmares?

42

If you have nightmares all the time, your mother up in heaven, will know that you're in so much pain

43

and will become very sad, too.

44

I never met my mother.

45

My father told me that I have impure human blood in my body.

46

He never lets me ask about my mother. Father disliked her, for sure.

47

No, that can't be! Lord Qingmu surely loved your mother very much.

48

He just doesn't want to talk about her.

49

We haven't chatted for a long time.

50

I never forgot what I promised you.

51

Ah Xi has been living by himself for a long time now and is doing well.

52

He is quite independent.

53

The only thing is, he's not able to forget this one human.

54

He's quite like you in this aspect.

55

Lately, this kid is finding out more and more information.

56

If it were you... what would you do?

57

Chief Priest, tonight's gathering,

58

Zhao Song and Tushan Qianhua will attend together.

59

I'm concerned that he may announce that she is the Left High Priest's wife.

60

Qianhua will not let go of her love for Ah Xi so easily.

61

This thing is not that simple.

62

But, Chief Priest...

63

Here it comes.

64

Hurry! Hurry!

65

Here.

66

Anybody there?

67

Lord Helan, it can't be that you're finished with matters already, right?

68

Stop messing around. Open the door quickly.

69

Why would I mess around with you?

70

I'm thinking about the happiness of others. If you don't finish matters today,

71

I won't open the door for you.

72

She fainted!

73

She fainted?

74

Lord Helan, isn't that taking it a bit too far?

75

Miss Guan is human!

76

A human? That can't be, right?

77

But -- But I clearly saw her wearing the Pearl of Charm.

78

- How long since she fainted?

- Fifteen minutes.

79

Move aside.

80

What's the situation?

81

Patient is 24 years old, fainted fifteen minutes ago. Her blood pressure dropped to 70/40, heartrate 130.

82

- Does she have a history of heart disease?

- She doesn't have heart disease.

83

Doctor Wang, she's in a critical state.

84

Get ready. Prepare 200 joules.

85

She does not have any heart disease. We cannot use a defibrillator.

86

- Doctor Wang, her blood pressure is going down again.

- Bring it.

87

- Kuanyong.

- Xiuxian, wasn't she doing well before?

88

She really kissed Lord Helan?

89

Yes. That's what Sumei said.

90

What on earth is going on?

91

Miss Guan kissed Lord Helan on her own and then fainted.

92

This is not the time to be joking around!

93

We're not joking. After all, Miss Guan is just a human being.

94

If caught off-guard with a kiss, Lord Helan's breath is harmful.

95

If you knew that, why didn't you tell her?

96

- We didn't think—

- We didn't think that they would progress so quickly.

97

- Well, what did you think?

- Don't get anxious.

98

I said that she didn't have a heart attack.

99

Please, go wait outside! Right now, you are obstructing our rescue efforts.

100

Kuanyong!

101

Let's go!

102

- Excuse me, please move aside.

- Kuanyong, handle it. It's all yours.

103

Where are the syringes?

104

- Where are they?

- The second drawer.

105

This will kill her.

106

Security! Security!

107

Stop! Are you her family members or not?

108

Doctor, I'll be responsible for her life.

109

Security, get them out of here quickly!

110

We're in a hospital. Shouldn't we listen to the doctors?

111

- Miss, if these two medications are injected simultaneously, it will kill her. They're lunatics!

- Please, go outside!

112

My dad was always called a lunatic by others.

113

Xiaoju, trust us.

114

Nurses! All the nurses come! Nurses!

115

All of you, stop!

116

Doctor Wang, look. Her heartbeat is back to normal.

117

Blood pressure is 110/70.

118

Hello, Left High Priest.

119

Why did we come here?

120

You'll know in a while.

121

- Hello, Left High Priest.

- Would Princess Zhaoyan appear here?

122

- Don't get anxious.

- Left High Priest.

123

We're not even certain if Princess Zhaoyan is alive or dead.

124

But there is someone called Bozhong who will come.

125

- Bozhong?

- Yes.

126

He is Princess Zhaoyan's most trusted follower.

127

How do you know that he'll come?

128

After all, this is the first time that I gave my Pearl of Charm away.

129

Even if she doesn't respect me, she'll have to respect you.

130

Can you be a little more serious? I didn't come here to play.

131

Am I not serious enough?

132

Then, let's get even more serious.

133

Today's a rare day.

134

All the family members from the North are here.

135

Even the Tushan Family that's been missing from here for hundreds of years is also--

136

They're not going to really end up fighting, right?

137

They definitely will. In a while, they'll go up there and fight.

138

They have such fiery tempers.

139

Did you think people from the North are all nice like me?

140

Eat less. Eat less!

141

He's mute. Something happened when he was young.

142

He can't talk or hear. Every time he comes, he just eats something and leaves.

143

Where's Bozhong? Is he here?

144

Bozhong? I've never seen him before.

145

You've never seen him before?

146

To be accurate, no one has seen him before.

147

So, we're looking for someone no one has ever seen?

148

That's right.

149

But I'll tell you that I'm really certain that he'll definitely come today.

150

All right.

151

Then I'll go and mingle with the people here. Maybe I'll find some clues.

152

Toast first.

153

Left High Priest.

154

Have you heard about it yet?

155

The White Fox Family's second daughter started liking Brother Li.

156

Is that for real?

157

Didn't you like Brother Li before?

158

Are you talking about Brother Li

159

from the Hengchuan Family?

160

You don't need to pretend interest in our conversation.

161

I'm not. I'm pretty sure I know that Brother Li, too.

162

We're really not that close.

163

My friend is quite straightforward when she talks. Don't be offended.

164

The North right now is like a big family.

165

When among family, they're really intimate.

166

But when faced with unfamiliar scents, they are all on alert.

167

If you continue in here like this, you'll get nothing from them.

168

Then, what can I do? If I don't mingle with them,

169

how am I going to find any clues?

170

If someone talked to you

171

with such direct intentions, would you agree?

172

When we came in, I told you to act better.

173

You're my wife. You should be the most respected person here.

174

Left High Priest,

175

I want to ask you to bless my child.

176

Sure.

177

How about letting my wife do it?

178

Forget it.

179

Anyway, it's not like we're really husband and wife. I don't have the right to bless her.

180

But I heard that in the South, even humans have the right to bless others.

181

Don't blame that girl. Her husband just passed away.

182

I think you knew her husband, too.

183

Who was he?

184

It was him. The Vice Chairman of the SPCA?

185

Isn't he from the South?

186

She has always been against her husband mingling in human society,

187

but her husband naively thought that he could change it.

188

The scent of humans on you probably made her uncomfortable. Don't blame her.

189

I heard he died from a car accident.

190

Accidents are pretty prevalent among humans, aren't they?

191

Of course, maybe I'm just too opinionated.

192

The truth is, it is still being investigated.

193

I made breakfast downstairs. If you want to eat anything else, I can make it for you.

194

I'm not eating breakfast. You eat it yourself.

195

Don't you go to class at ten o' clock? Why are you in a rush?

196

I want to go to class early to give the professor a good impression.

197

Then, when are you coming back in the afternoon?

198

The last class is until eight o' clock. By the time I come back, it should be about nine o' clock.

199

You don't have to wait for me for dinner.

200

I'm leaving.

201

Oh, right. There's still a problem with the toilet. Think of a solution to fix it.

202

Mom, I sent you so many video requests earlier, how come you didn't answer?

203

I was eating with your dad.

204

What's wrong?

205

Nothing.

206

When are you coming back?

207

I'll come back soon.

208

Why did you suddenly go to the States to have fun?

209

Didn't I already tell you, Mom? I made plans with friends to visit the States after graduation.

210

Is now a time for travel? Why not start working as soon as possible?

211

Mom, let's talk about work issues when I get back. All right?

212

Be safe.

213

I know.

214

Mom.

215

Huh? What is it?

216

Nothing. I just miss you.

217

If you miss me, hurry up and come back.

218

I'll come back soon.

219

All right.

220

Get to bed on time.

221

All right. Bye!

222

Bye-bye.

223

Hello, nurse. If the patient in this room needs anything, please notify me.

224

Yes, if there's anything going on, we'll immediately notify you.

225

All right. Thank you.

226

How's Pipi right now?

227

Let's wait a little longer.

228

Sumei?

229

Why did you come?

230

I wanted to apologize to Miss Guan.

231

I just wanted to joke around with her.

232

I didn't realize it would end up like this.

233

I don't even know if she'll forgive me or not.

234

Don't worry, she won't blame you.

235

Pipi is like that. She'll never blame anyone.

236

It's our fault this time. In the future, we'll pay attention to it.

237

- That's right.

- In the future?

238

Do you know that at first Pipi was afraid of you all?

239

I was the one who persuaded her not to worry so much.

240

I was the one who coaxed her to try and interact with Mr. Helan.

241

I thought it would be like a fairy tale

242

where the heroine would wake up after she gets kissed.

243

But why is it that in your story,

244

you die after a kiss?

245

Forget it. It's my responsibility.

246

Why did Sister Fang also come?

247

She came with me. Please, excuse me.

248

Sister Fang.

249

You came right on time.

250

She wants to talk to you. You guys go ahead and talk.

251

I'll go outside and wait for you.

252

Let's go to the side.

253

What's wrong?

254

Xiuxian, come with me to buy something.

255

- What? Buy what?

- Food.

256

- Buy what food?

- Good food. Desserts.

257

Desserts?

258

Doctor Wang, I would like to apologize for what happened earlier.

259

No. I should apologize to you first.

260

If it wasn't for your firm decision, this lady would not be in stable condition right now.

261

We'll keep her under observation for another hour. If there are no big problems, she can be discharged.

262

Thank you.

263

Sir, I would like to ask something.

264

Earlier, in such an emergent situation,

265

how did you make such an accurate diagnosis?

266

This is something that only doctors with a lot of ER experience can do.

267

Actually, I'm not a doctor. I've just been through similar situations.

268

I became an ER doctor not too long ago,

269

so I haven't had much experience with patients. I hope you can give me some pointers.

270

If it's convenient for you, could you look at a similar patient record?

271

That... wouldn't be appropriate.

272

Actually, I have another case that was quite similar to today's case.

273

What's the situation in there?

274

We don't know yet.

275

This way, please.

276

Mr. Helan, I don't want to offend you,

277

but I don't want anything to happen to Pipi because of you.

278

Her situation right now is stable, but we still need to watch her for an hour.

279

Thank you, Doctor.

280

I won't let anything happen to her hereafter.

281

What's wrong with Sister Fang?

282

Her mood isn't too good. She said it's because she has encountered a lot of weird things lately.

283

Talk. Why are you looking at me?

284

Let's switch to a different place.

285

What words are there that you can't say in front of me?

286

Miss Xin, it's better for you not to know anything regarding this matter.

287

Please, take a look at these cases.

288

With my ability, I'm actually not—

289

It's okay. It's okay. I won't make it hard on you.

290

This person had a very similar situation like the one we faced today.

291

He passed away in the end because we could not save him.

292

[Fang Jingxue]

293

- What are you doing?

- Exercising.

294

Exercising?

295

I wanted to say something to you at the party today.

296

I said, I wanted to say something to you.

297

Where are you going?

298

Sister Qingtan,

299

I finally found out.

300

Helan and Qianhua are not human.

301

They're aliens from the Fox Planet.

302

They don't eat food.

303

Some eat flowers. Some eat human livers.

304

Human livers!

305

- Fox Planet?

- That's right, Fox Planet.

306

Also, look. I took photos.

307

Helan can use his will to hurt people.

308

Also, this came from their Fox Planet.

309

Have you played too many games recently?

310

No, look. I have photos. I saw it with my own eyes.

311

Those photos were taken by me. They are real.

312

- Wang Xuan,

- Huh?

313

among the workers, you work the hardest.

314

I know.

315

I also know that you've had a lot of pressure ever since Pipi left.

316

But no matter how much stress you have,

317

you have to separate your work from your personal life.

318

Hold on. Let me find it for you.

319

Wang Xuan,

320

listen to me. Take a day off tomorrow.

321

Don't come to work. Rest well. I'm going to leave now.

322

Sister Qingtan! Sister Qingtan!

323

It's true.

324

I would love to eat it with some vegetables.

325

Some green things.

326

- I can't open it. I think that's two pieces.

- You can eat it now.

327

You're very mean. You're so mean to him.

328

- Look...

- It's not that easy.

329

You put more, I think. Yeah. Make it more delicious.

330

- This looks good.

- We should make it, like...

331

- Hey.

- Yeah, that's okay.

332

Who is that?

333

- Tianxin.

- Huh?

334

We are making dumplings. You want to join us?

335

Okay.

336

So, come here.

337

Here.

338

- Hi.

- Hi.

339

So, I'm going to introduce, that's uh...

340

Ceci.

341

- Ceci.

- Hi.

342

- This is Nick.

- Nick, hi.

- Nice to meet you.

343

- Logan.

- Hey, Logan.

344

- Victoria.

- Nice to meet you.

345

- Silva.

- Nice to meet you.

346

- And Walter.

- Walter.

347

So, you guys made all this yourself?

348

- Yeah.

- Hey,

349

Senior, when are you going back?

350

I think at the end of this month.

351

This month? Why? That's really early.

352

- I got some problems of my visa. It sucks.

353

That's unfortunate.

354

So, you got a student visa to come here?

355

No? What's your major?

356

I'm not here to study. I came here with my boyfriend.

357

Who is your boyfriend?

358

It's Tao Jialin. He's from your university, isn't he?

359

You've heard of him, right?

360

Oh, actually, my brother mentioned him to me before.

361

He's into artificial intelligence and has good grades.

362

I heard that Professor Liao even wrote him a recommendation letter.

363

Maybe you guys don't know that.

364

That Professor never write any reference to anyone,

365

- so her boyfriend is so good.

- Not bad.

366

Hey. How long have you been together with your boyfriend?

367

We've known each other for a long time.

368

That's so sweet of you to come here to keep him company.

369

None of our girlfriends would come to keep us company.

370

I'm not here to keep him company while he's in school.

371

I came here to help him with the enrollment.

372

I'm going back in a few days.

373

Are you not coming back afterward?

374

I probably will.

375

Then, that would be keeping him company while he's in school.

376

What's going on?

377

We're talking about that she came here all the way for her boyfriend,

378

giving up everything in China just to be with him.

379

- Really?

- Yep.

380

That's so romantic.

381

- Typical.

- Typical what?

382

Typical Chinese.

383

How stereotypical for you to say that!

384

Okay. Sorry.

385

Actually, I got my master degree.

386

Moreover, I also graduated from H University. I majored in marketing.

387

Oh. So, you're taking the business?

388

But, you know, you would've gotten more opportunities to work in China.

389

But it's hard to find jobs in China right now.

390

It's not easy to find one,

391

but I already got an offer from Ogilvy.

392

Ogilvy offer?

393

Why did you come here, then? You sacrificed so much.

394

Let's play together.

395

We are not playing anymore. You can play by yourself.

396

Get your hands off of me.

397

The last time I saw you, you were humane. You're like this after only a few years?

398

Let's play a round.

399

If Brother Song wants to play, we have to play.

400

I'll make the introduction. This is my wife.

401

More specifically, my future wife

402

from the Tushan Family, Qianhua. Qianhua, these two are from White Fox.

403

I treat them as brothers. They take good care of me, too.

404

No, no. It's Left High Priest

405

who takes care of us.

406

Come on.

407

Qianhua would like to greet everyone.

408

Even though I left the North quite a few years ago,

409

starting today, I'm coming back to this big family.

410

I hope all of you can take care of me.

411

We're not qualified to take care of you.

412

How did Miss Qianhua and Left High Priest meet?

413

A long time ago, I was once being chased by humans and I even got hurt by ruby sulfur.

414

Left High Priest saved me.

415

Ever since then, I've liked him.

416

That's different from what we've heard.

417

We heard that the Tushan's rich daughter fell in love with the one in the south centuries ago,

418

but her feelings went unrequited because he was in love with a human.

419

So, are you treating our Left High Priest as a back up?

420

You're talking about Helan Jingting?

421

Right. I did like him in the past.

422

But he already likes someone else. I also told myself that

423

liking him is my own business, not anyone else's.

424

Can't I just secretly like him?

425

But when I met Zhao Song, I found out

426

that love isn't something you can do alone.

427

It's a business for two.

428

When you show your love to someone and he doesn't reciprocate, then why continue liking him?

429

When the other person reciprocates, only then do you understand

430

that liking someone who likes you back

431

is such a joyous and beautiful thing.

432

Hearing you say that, I want to know

433

how did Left High Priest pursue you?

434

What else could I do other than pursue her nonstop?

435

I know she disliked me in the beginning

436

because I always showed up, at any time and anywhere, in front of her.

437

I also said some things that were hard to hear.

438

I was stupid.

439

I didn't know how to make her like me.

440

I only knew that I really liked her.

441

When I would think of her, I wanted to see her immediately.

442

I didn't want her to suffer at all.

443

I also didn't want her to make meaningless sacrifices.

444

I also didn't want her to pretend to be strong among strangers.

445

It was too tiring. My heart really ached.

446

So, if you guys

447

think of me as a brother,

448

please treat my wife well, too.

449

Hello, Madam.

450

Let's go drink.

451

Please, forgive my attitude toward you earlier.

452

There is a human scent on your body,

453

just like my husband had.

454

He interacted often with humans, too.

455

Even though he's no longer here,

456

I've never really blamed him.

457

Seeing you today, I can truly understand my husband.

458

You and Left High Priest

459

are the same as all of us.

460

We do this because of our children and for our future.

461

Thank you.

462

One is bad news. One is good news. Which one do you want to hear first?

463

The bad news.

464

The bad news is that the elders you asked me to find,

465

those that could translate the ancient writings, they are all gone.

466

Not even one is left?

467

Over the past one hundred years, there were complicated changes. It was hard to predict that this would happen.

468

Then, we can also say that in this world, there is only the princess who can get us the needed translations.

469

Yes. So, the good news is that

470

none of the evidence proves if she is dead or not.

471

Not funny.

472

Pipi.

473

You're awake?

474

Are we in a hospital?

475

Yes.

476

You suddenly fainted. You scared me to death.

477

How do you feel right now? Do you feel better?

478

I feel like I had a very long dream,

479

but I don't remember what I dreamed about.

480

You still need to rest right now.

481

Why does something always happen whenever she's with you?

482

Miss Guan, it's my fault. I was the one who wasn't careful.

483

It's all right. Xiaoju is just joking around with you.

484

What time is it right now?

485

Right now, it's 1:10 a.m.

486

It's so late. Go and get some rest.

487

I'm fine. The doctor said they need to observe you for a few more hours. I will stay by your side.

488

Okay.

489

If there's nothing else with Miss Guan today, how about you go back and rest?

490

It's late.

491

It's all right. I'll stay for a bit longer.

492

Miss Xin...

493

What's wrong with her?

494

It's probably because of Miss Guan.

495

But seeing her in this state, it seems like she has something else on her mind.

496

Say, did Miss Xin do all the four S's?

497

It's just like the time when Miss Guan was heartbroken.

498

Then, did the doctor say why I fainted?

499

The doctor said...

500

Because I kissed you?

501

Yes.

502

In the past, I just gazed at your eyes for a bit

503

and I vomited for a couple days.

504

This time I just gave you a little kiss and I almost died.

505

If there is anything else I shouldn't do when I'm with you,

506

just tell me beforehand.

507

There is actually another thing you can't do.

508

What is it?

509

It's...

510

But there's a solution to it.

511

A solution for what?

512

I'm not likely going to be doing anything with you, so what solution?

513

I didn't mean anything like that.

514

Didn't we just eat dumplings?

515

Those dumplings didn't taste good.

516

- I didn't really eat any.

- Lower your voice. Others can hear.

517

That's right. Get two.

518

- Thanks.

- It's all right.

519

The girl just now. That... Tao Jialin's girlfriend.

520

She's so fake.

521

She said that she got an offer from Ogilvy.

522

- Let me tell you. Even if you beat me to death, I wouldn't believe that.

- That's right.

523

If she got such a good offer, why would she still come back to keep her boyfriend company while he studies.

524

That's right. I would never do that.

525

Moreover, she only just graduated and already got an offer from Ogilvy?

526

How long are they going to study here?

527

Who knows how long they're going to study.

528

Oops.

529

Miss Xin, go take a look at her.

530

Okay.

531

Let's go sign the discharge papers.

532

All right.

533

They laid you down and you didn't even move. The heart monitor beeped and then it flat-lined.

534

Then Helan was going to give you medicine, but the doctor wouldn't let him.

535

So, I found a surgical knife and put it to my neck.

536

"All of you, don't make a move!"

537

If you have something precious and you want someone to take care of it;

538

usually, you'll choose a responsible person

539

who will make you feel at ease.

540

When we love someone, we're giving our heart and leaving it in someone else's care.

541

No wonder people say that love is a responsibility,

542

because our hearts are so fragile.

543

If we can't meet that responsibility,

544

then we probably wouldn't dare to love.

545

Sorry. I couldn't help you.

546

You already helped me a lot. Thanks.

547

It's a pity that we still haven't found that person.

548

Although we didn't get information about Bozhong when we were talking to them,

549

I heard quite a few things regarding Princess Zhaoyan.

550

She doesn't seem to like Helan.

551

She wants you to be the next Chief Priest.

552

So, I suddenly understood

553

that perhaps I don't need to look for Bozhong.

554

He'll come and look for me himself.

555

Miss Qianhua, Left High Priest, excuse me for interrupting you.

556

It turns out that you can talk.

557

What I shouldn't hear, I don't hear. What I shouldn't say, I don't say.

558

I am Yue Bozhong, Princess Zhaoyan's messenger.
