[Pretty Guardian of the City]

[Episode 21]

Why is my heart beating so fast?

Miss.

Eat something.

You've been sitting here all day.

You didn't even drink a sip of water.

That was so strange.

What happened?

Master,

please take a look at her.

She's been sitting here muttering

for the whole day,

And she hasn't eaten anything.

Nothing?

Fengyi.

What's wrong?

Are you hurting anywhere?

Or is the food not tasty?

Tell me.

Father.

I might be sick.

Stretch out your tongue.

A little longer.

Doctor,

can I be saved?

Speak up.

Her pulse is strong,

her face is radiant,

and her eyes are bright.

There's no problem at all.

That can't be right.

She didn't eat anything

and she's in a trance.

Check carefully.

That's strange.

Miss.

Can you describe

how it's like when you feel sick?

I...

I just feel like

my heart is racing

and my entire body is heating up.

I'm a little nervous for no reason,

with a tinge of excitement.

This...

I also feel troubled

suddenly,

but I become happy again soon.

Why are you hesitating?

Just say it.

Based on these feelings,

It sounds like you have a crush.

Crush...

Miss.

Is there

a man you like?

Who?

My beloved man.

[Liaowu Mansion]

Brother.

Can you tell me

what I should do now?

I really want to spend the rest of my life

with the Young Master.

But I know

I don't have the right to.

Am I selfish?

I know I don't have much time left,

yet I still desire the happiness he gives me.

Make him

bear my last moment of agony

with me.

It's all my fault.

I couldn't change anything.

I can't save you

or myself.

Excuse me, Miss Yunxi,

can you come with me

to see my master?

Miss,

you've been smiling at this umbrella

for the whole day.

What's going on?

Nothing.

Miss,

it's easy for your mental health to deteriorate

if you just stay at home all the time.

Why don't we go out

for a walk?

Isn't that Miss Yunxi

and Wuyu?

Why are they together?

Yun...

Huayuan, don't disturb them.

Let's buy an umbrella to return to Young Master.

Return an umbrella?

Tonight, I hold up a silver light to look at you,

afraid that our meeting is just a dream.

[Hongan Clinic]

Since he broke up with Miss Nangong,

he has been drinking all day and night.

There hasn't been a day when he is sober.

Please go talk some sense into him.

Are you crazy?

You will die if you keep drinking like this.

Yunxi,

I didn't expect that there's still someone who cares about me.

Come, Yunxi.

Come and drink with me.

Let's drink together.

What's happened has happened.

You should think about

how to get Siyan back.

How does drinking help the situation?

Are you looking down on me too?

I'm just

an illegitimate son born from a slave.

I couldn't even protect the woman I love

when she was in danger.

Don't undermine yourself like that.

You have a gentleman's demeanor.

You never

argue or fight over things.

Never arguing or fighting over things?

Have you ever thought that

it's because I'm not in the position to do so?

I know you have

a lot of difficulties.

But drinking can't solve

anything.

What you are expected to do now

is to think carefully about

the future

of you and Siyan

Siyan

doesn't love me anymore.

Yunxi, you know what?

Even I think

Siyan made the right choice.

It's better that she doesn't love me.

If she doesn't love me,

she won't be heartbroken because of me.

But I love her.

If I don't have her,

my heart would be break

Will people not be heartbroken

only when they don't love each other anymore?

Miss Nangong.

Why are you here?

Miss.

Greetings, Young Master.

What can I do for you?

I'm here to return the umbrella.

I broke your umbrella.

So I bought you a new one.

No need.

I'll just use Yunxi's umbrella.

What are you doing?

Don't mention it.

You know what?

Yunxi has been clinging on to me lately.

But I'm too busy.

I can't afford to

spend all my time dating her.

You won't understand.

You can't experience

such feelings.

So I'm carving a little statue of myself

that can be with her every day.

I really envy Yunxi.

She has a soulmate like you.

You're not the only one.

I think everyone around me

envies me

for having someone as intelligent

as Yunxi.

The most exceptional thing

is your loyal affection

for Yunxi.

Of course.

She's my lady.

Who else can I dote on?

How can I make her envy others?

Young Master,

I think the face

can be rounder,

the shoulders wider,

and the mouth

can be longer.

Yunxi.

You are back.

Why do you smell like alcohol?

Did you drink?

Miss Nangong.

I have something to tell you.

What...

what's with the change in temperament?

Miss Nangong,

I just came back

from Dr. Xian's clinic.

He's having a hard time right now.

What about how I feel?

He abandoned me so many times.

Every time he had a choice,

he would choose to

abandon me without hesitation.

I just hope

you don't miss the chance

with the right person.

Maybe we weren't

meant to be together

at all.

Are you thinking about me?

Young Master, I'm working.

Please don't disturb me.

What's wrong?

Why are you so unhappy

to see me?

Young Master.

Young Master.

Normally, when a woman suddenly becomes hostile,

it is likely because she's jealous.

Jealous?

I didn't do anything.

Don't tell me you are jealous of

my relationship with Nangong Siyan?

Zhu Wen.

Young Master.

Yunxi seems to want something sour today.

Order the kitchen

to add some dishes today.

Vinegar spinach,

vinegar peanuts,

and vinegar jellyfish.

Childish.

Silly girl.

Actually Nangong Siyan

was helping me make this

secretly.

A mini Young Master.

I know you can't stand not being around me for even a moment.

I'm worried

I can't be with you when you miss me,

so I made this.

It will accompany you for me.

Take it away. I don't want it.

All right, don't be angry.

Please don't be angry.

I said I don't want it.

You're so annoying.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Why is she like that?

Jiang Chaoxi.

If you don't love me anymore,

your heart won't be broken.

So I'd rather you stop loving me.

Stop right there!

What are you angry about?

What did I do wrong?

I'm not angry.

You're not angry?

Fine.

Look me in the eyes

affectionately,

like you used to.

Jiang Chaoxi.

Can you stop being so childish?

What did I do?

Does seeing me upset you this much?

Don't I have

the right to

not want to see you?

No.

As the Chief Planner for the city's construction,

you need to show

professionalism and a sense of responsibility.

From now on,

you're not allowed to be apart from me,

not even an inch,

as we go meet

the Cultural Envoys from Ankang City.

[Planning Room]

The Cultural Envoys from Ankang City have arrived.

Greetings, Young Master.

Greetings, Young Master.

Yun'er.

Here.

Hexuan.

Don't move.

There seems to be

something dirty on your face.

-Come here. -Where?

Is it all gone?

A little bit more here.

Brother's face is painted like a cat.

Childish.

Come here.

Stop it.

You'd better come here.

Come here!

It's Brother Fusheng.

Lord Chu is famous and talented.

I've heard your legendary name.

Please pardon me for

the lack of a grand welcome.

You're too courteous.

It is my great honor

to be received by Young Master

during my visit here.

Who is this lady?

I'm Yunxi,

the Chief Planner of city construction

in Cangyue.

I'm Wuyan, the First Guard of Cangyue.

You hired a woman as a planner.

Cangyue is really open-minded

and progressive.

Looks like Brother Fusheng

doesn't recognize me.

Lord Chu,

please come in.

Let's go.

Why are you looking at him like that?

How dare you look at others

like that in front of me?

What's going on?

What's the matter?

Look.

What?

Why are they all the same?

These too.

Look at this.

It's the same.

I heard that the construction of Cangyue City

is excellent.

You really deserve that reputation.

These models and maps

are astonishing.

I wonder who made it.

Lord Chu, you have good taste.

The blueprints you see

all come from our Chief Planner,

Yunxi.

Lord Chu.

Look.

It's fine if you just

look at these drawings.

Why are you

staring at our Chief Planner?

I'm afraid it's inappropriate.

Miss Yunxi is talented

and beautiful.

I was

a little smitten.

You...

Lord Chu,

you'd better focus on the cultural exchange.

Don't be distracted.

Take a closer look.

The patterns of the eaves gallery on the model

are similar to the safeness patterns

of our Ankang City.

Are they imitating us?

How is this yours?

This is the design of Luo Daoan,

the former Director of the Planning Department.

How is this yours?

Luo Daoan?

No wonder.

It is said that his ancestral home

is in Ankang.

His design is inevitably influenced

by Ankang culture.

Not only buildings.

Since I arrived in Cangyue City,

their living style that I've seen

is heavily reminiscent of

of Ankang culture.

How is that possible?

For example,

people here

like pickled food.

We also have pickles too.

They're obviously imitating us.

Who doesn't like pickles?

Who doesn't?

You might as well say

Cangyue belongs to Ankang.

It's possible.

Possible?

Are you looking for trouble?

How can that be possible?

These all are Cangyue's.

Food and culture

know no boundaries.

There's no need for us to draw the boundary.

As long as it is a way to benefit the people,

we can share and learn from each other.

We seldom come to Cangyue.

Looking at these molds alone

is not enough to know

the essence of their construction.

I wonder if Miss Yunxi

could show us

around?

Of course.

The buildings in the Young Master's Mansion

are very unique.

It's inconvenient.

Do you think my mansion

is a tourist attraction

and can be visited freely?

The other places of Cangyue

are also very unique.

For example, the Frog Tower.

Use a stone to knock the tower,

and it will generate the sound of frogs.

If you are interested,

I can show you around there.

Sure.

Forget it.

I've thought about it.

The journey outside the city is long.

Lord Chu is a guest from afar.

You shouldn't be exhausted.

Let's visit my mansion.

The Young Master's Mansion is the typical building

of Cangyue City.

It uses pillars

and beam frames.

The parts of these buildings are mainly connected

by mortise and tenon joints.

Even without using

nails and other assisting tools,

the house will not fall down when the wall collapses.

The constructions of our city

are very particular in color.

We often use

some colorful patterns

to beautify the building.

I've learned a lot from this trip.

You are not inferior to men.

I'm impressed.

I'm flattered.

Young Master's Mansion is really suitable to live in.

Not only are the buildings magnificent,

but even these flowers

are blooming and flourishing.

If we use these flowers to make flower pastry,

it must be very sweet and delicious.

I can't help having food cravings again.

To be honest,

I had a brother in my family

who was good at making flower pastry.

I also had a sister

who really liked to eat flower pastry.

Unfortunately, we've been separated for years.

I've been looking for her for a long time,

but I haven't heard from her.

Life passes like a dream.

What's so good about flower pastry?

You are so superficial.

Miss Yunxi is knowledgeable.

I still have

a lot of architectural questions

to ask.

May I visit you

tomorrow?

Sure...

It's not convenient.

If you have any questions,

you can go to the Planning Department.

Business is business.

Lest people say I haven't made

a clear distinction between public and private interest.

Lord Chu.

I'm free.

You can come to me anytime.

Then, I'll

leave now.

See you tomorrow.

What do you mean?

Is he that attractive?

Your eyes were glued to him.

None of your business.

Yunxi.

Don't push it too far!

You're not allowed to see him again.

You wait here with eager expectancy.

Are you waiting

for Chu Yao?

So what?

What do you mean?

You were passionately in love with me the other day,

and now you've transferred your affection to a new one.

Miss Yunxi.

Lord Chu.

Young Master is here too.

I can go with Lord...

I can go with Lord Chu.

We won't bother you, Young Master.

Lord Chu,

this way, please.

How capricious.

Your attitude changed so quickly.

When Chu Yao leaves,

I'll teach you a lesson.

Why should I listen to you?

I'll follow you.

Who are you to decide if I'm bothered or not?

If I listened to all your wishes,

I would lose my authority.

You are an important guest.

I can't be disrespectful.

Young Master.

Let me do it.

You're too courteous, Young Master.

Thank you.

No need to be awkward.

You guys continue. Don't mind me.

I'll be here

to serve you two.

I won't disturb you.

The water is sweet.

The tea is green.

It must be the fresh Longjing Tea

picked before Grain Rain.

Not bad.

You have good taste.

Young Master,

please.

Are you all right, Young Master?

I am so clumsy.

I'm sorry. Did this tea burn you?

Why don't you go back and change your clothes?

It's fine.

I can cool down.

Cool down.

Young Master,

I'd better take you back

to change your clothes.

Little girl.

Brother Fusheng.

You're still as cute as

when you were a kid.

What are you doing?

I finally caught you.

No more pretending, right?

You're just a playboy,

not the envoy from Ankang City.

Today,

-I must teach you a lesson. -Young Master, you misunderstood.

What misunderstanding?

In broad daylight,

I saw it with my own eyes.

You were throwing yourself at him.

I accidentally fell down.

Lord Chu just helped me.

Fell down?

You surveyors even fall

with such precision.

You fell straight into his arms.

I fell into your arms like this

before, too.

I'm different from other men.

You misunderstood me.

I'm sorry.

But let me say something.

Women will not like

petty men.

It's better than

a libertine like you.

Such a playboy.

It seems that

I should not be here under this circumstance.

I'll leave now.

Little girl,

see you next time.

What did he call you just now?

Little girl?

You guys

are that close already?

Stay out of my business.

I can't.

Listen.

Don't go to him.

You are not allowed to go out

until you finish your work.

Young Master, have some green tea

to relieve your internal heat.

Green tea?

I am cuckolded!

Yunxi

has gone too far.

Because I am deeply obsessed

with her,

she acts unscrupulously.

Even in front of me,

she dares to do this with others.

Tell me,

what should I do?

Young Master.

Since ancient times, between men and women,

those who express their feelings first

will get hurt easier

because of their devotion.

Then I swear to God.

I'll never love anyone again。

I'll be myself again.

Young Master,

please think twice.

If God

really hears your wish

and fulfills it,

there will be no chance

between you and Miss Yunxi.

You're right.

Forget it.

Forget it.

Forget it.

I was too emotional.

Please bless the Young Master.

Please bless him.

Actually, I thought about it again.

Yunxi

didn't mean to throw herself in his arms.

It must be Chu Yao's fault.

Besides,

I'm so magnanimous.

How could I lose my temper over such a trivial matter

with the woman I love?

Right?

Let's have some tea.

Not bad.

What a sunny day

with fresh breeze.

It's a good time to tour.

I

happen to be free today.

I wonder who will have the honor

of going out with me today.

Yunxi, what are you doing?

Don't you hear me?

Yes.

Didn't you tell me

I couldn't go out before I finish my work?

For the sake of your hard work,

you can have a rest today.

You are allowed to take half a day off

and go out.

Thank you, Young Master.

You don't have to dress up

to go out with me.

Let's just go.

Who says I'm going out with you?

Who else can you go with?

You want to see Chu Yao again?

So what?

It has nothing to do with you.

You've only met once.

But you miss him so much.

It seems that these people from Ankang

not only want

our history and culture,

but also our women.

Young Master.

I'm free to meet who I want to meet.

Then what about the relationship between us?

Don't come back if you leave.
