[Love Is Written in the Stars]

[Episode 18]

How did you get in?

You shouldn't use your powers like that.

Get off me.

Zhou Yuan, that's enough.

Enough?

I'm just getting started.

You can never run away as long as I have you in my arms.

That is the proper way to use my powers.

You're not mad anymore?

Mad? Why would I be mad?

I'm more than happy to be your sister.

You wish.

Do you want me to say that?

Well, sorry to disappoint.

Get a hold of yourself.

Zhou Yuan.

Do you know what will happen when you're sober in the morning?

What can be worse than becoming your sister?

You'll only hurt yourself if you play the ruthless card with others.

That's right.

It was my wishful thinking.

Sorry to bother you.

Actually...

No matter what I say, you can play dumb.

Ever since you came back to the capital,

have you decided

to delete me from your life?

I knew it.

But you will be disappointed.

Because no matter how much you hate to see me,

I will never let you go in my lifetime.

I will chase you to the end of the world.

What if

I died before you?

Before you can chase me,

I had already fallen,

leaving you behind all alone. Are you okay with that?

I am.

It doesn't matter.

You can leave me behind. But don't leave on your own.

♫ I cast a glance and the wind blows towards you ♫

♫ You are more beautiful than the stars and the moon ♫

♫ Wish there is no morning rain in your world ♫

♫ Wish there is no frost in your eyes ♫

♫ I won't regret I've used up my luck ♫

♫ I only wish to fly together with you ♫

♫ Wish there is no morning rain in your world ♫

♫ Wish there is no frost in your eyes ♫

♫ I won't regret I've used up my luck ♫

♫ I only wish to fly together with you ♫

Hey.

I was... drunk last night,

and did something shameless to you.

I am very ashamed as your subordinate,

but I won't apologize.

How about this?

Don't try to buy me with that.

Wei Qi? Are you okay?

What's wrong?

Wei Qi, something is not right with you.

Are you hiding anything from me?

You're heady now.

Who knows how much of it you really mean?

Tonight at 7 pm.

I will be waiting for you by Ranfang Lake.

Master, where are you going?

To the Imperial Court.

The Court? For what?

To revoke the designated marriage, of course.

Let's go.

Brother, give me more work.

Yuan, what's going on?

You are so energetic.

I just feel like it. I must get my tasks done in time today.

When it's time, no one can stop me.

Or I will murder my way out of here.

Finally, I finished it.

I'm so tired.

Wait, you can't leave now.

What did I just say?

I will murder anyone that stands in my way.

[Divorce Paper] Take a look at this first.

Divorce Paper?

Xingyue? Xingyue.

Where did she go?

Where is all her stuff?

She has left.

Father.

What do you mean by she has left?

Why did she leave?

Xingyue submit the divorce paper to the Department of Marriage.

- Divorce... - I asked if she wanted to take anything,

and she said no.

So I threw all her stuff away.

Divorce Paper?

Why would she want a divorce?

I get it.

You drove her away.

Because her powers were weakening,

and she couldn't give us a child, right?

How dare you?

Who do you think your father is?

Nobody forced her. She left at her own will.

What? Her own will?

- Sister. - Uncle.

- Lin, come here. - Look who it is.

Uncle.

- Higher. - You want me to hold you higher?

I can't stand you two.

Yunchu,

you are in a good mood today.

Did something nice happen?

It's a secret.

Where are you planning on going?

I asked for a fortune stick the other day,

and I am about to take Lin

to the Red String Temple to redeem the wish.

- Redeem the wish? - Not just me, Uncle Bing is going too.

Who is Uncle Bing?

Uncle Bing is good to me.

He gives me nice food and plays with me.

No wonder Lin is not playing with me anymore.

You have a new favorite and forgot about me.

You can't trust what a child says.

If you have doubts, you can come with us.

I'll pass.

I know my place.

I wouldn't be there ruining your moment.

Mother and I like Uncle Bing a lot.

Lin.

Go find him then.

Alright. Let's go.

Stop laughing.

Be careful.

I know.

I'm glad that she is

finally moving on from her past.

The echo ring is bright.

You were playing family with my sister and Lin

while hiding a living person

right under their noses.

Well done, Xue Deng.

Pei Yin was taken by you.

Give me the antidote, or die right away.

Pick one.

What antidote? I'm not following.

The antidote for Pei Yin.

Didn't he lose his senses

because of you?

If I refuse?

Then I'll get it myself.

If you don't give me the antidote,

I don't mind ending your life right now.

Are you sure you want to save him?

What do you mean?

Did you forget?

He is your romantic rival.

Wouldn't it suit you better if he's dead?

What does that have to do with you?

You want to save Pei Yin?

Easy. You should go ask Zhou Yuan.

Ask Zhou Yuan for the antidote? Why?

To detoxicate Pei Yin,

it takes the blood of those who love him.

Those who love him?

What do you say?

I bet Zhou Yuan is willing

to take her heart out just to save Pei Yin.

But what about you?

I shouldn't have kept you alive.

Go to hell!

Stop.

Sister, do you know who he is?

He is Bing.

Do you seriously believe that made-up name?

I don't care if his name is fake or not.

All I know is that,

if you hurt him, Lin will be sad.

Wake up, sister.

This is the leader of Shenji Sect,

who has done many vile things.

This is the last person you should be protecting.

I don't care what he's done.

He is under my protection now,

and no one can hurt him, including you.

What is going on with Wei Qi?

I feel like he's hiding something.

Zhou Yuan.

You used to be the one hiding things from others,

and now it's the other way around.

It's probably karma.

What are you mumbling about?

Wei Qi, you're here.

- Well... - Wait.

Before that, I need to tell you something.

What could be more important than us?

Aren't you curious about where your master is?

Master? Did you see him?

Where is he? Tell me.

I did find him.

But I can't let you see him.

Why?

I'll tell you the truth.

Your master isn't doing great now.

And I have a feeling

that if I take you to him,

you will sacrifice yourself

to save him.

So I can't let you see each other.

Is he hurt badly?

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

And what do you mean by sacrifice?

Wei Qi, stop saying those confusing words.

Just tell me what happened.

You still don't trust me.

I just don't want to watch you die for another man.

Die?

You know that's not what I meant.

I spent the whole day thinking about you.

I worked my butt off

so that I won't be late for our date.

I didn't want to keep you waiting.

You kept feeling sick for the past few days,

and you won't tell me anything about it.

It's none of your business.

Fine. It's none of my business.

Well then, my life belongs to me.

And what I do with it is none of your business.

Fine.

Your echo ring.

You can take it back.

Go save him for all I care.

You...

Drink.

I told you.

Women are unreliable.

One minute, they are saying the sweetest vows to you,

and the next, they're cruel and ruthless.

I just don't understand it.

Look at me. I'm Wei Qi.

I'm good-looking. I know literature and martial arts.

Besides,

I can work the living room and the kitchen.

How am I not better

than her goofy master?

There is one thing.

What is it?

You're not as miserable as him.

Does that count?

Sure it does.

Women are compassionate animals.

If what you're saying is true,

Pei Yin is a living dead person.

Dude, a living dead person.

How miserable is that?

How bad would Zhou Yuan feel when she sees him?

Then, look at yourself.

You're all energetic.

You're sitting here drinking and whining with me.

Don't you agree?

I...

Never mind.

What happened to your hand?

What can happen?

Even if I'm dead one day,

she wouldn't even care.

If you want a girl to care about you,

the best way is sadfishing.

Sadfishing?

I am sad already.

Do I have to do it?

Come on.

I'll do it today.

It's just sadfishing. I can do it.

Get me someone

so they can beat me to death.

[Handling Office]

Am I seeing this right?

Isn't this the Handling Office of the Department of Marriage?

Is Pei Yin really in there?

Why not go inside?

Head Cui.

Don't startle me like that.

Just be normal and say hi.

You're here for Pei Yin, right?

Master?

Master.

Are you okay? Master.

Head Cui.

What happened to my master?

I heard from Wei Qi that his life is in danger.

Pei Yin lost all of his senses,

but his life is not in danger.

Lost his senses?

When Wei Qi took him here,

all he said was that he found him at Xue Deng's place.

Nothing else.

My guess is

Pei Yin shut off his five senses to hide from Xue Deng.

That is harsh.

How else can he deceive his enemy?

Alright. You've seen him.

You've got your comfort.

But he's lying here like a stick.

How is that comforting?

What if he never wakes up for the rest of his life?

Knowing the sneaky him,

do you think he didn't have a plan?

It makes sense.

Rest assured.

If you ask me,

I bet that in a few days,

you will see an energetic Pei Yin.

[Red String Temple]

I told you to grab someone from the street.

Why did you take His Lordship?

He was the only one available on the street.

I'm sorry, Boss.

Should I return him?

Are you kidding me?

Have you seen a kidnapper

who returns the hostage?

- The Wei family will... - Tear you into pieces.

Oh my God.

You're awake so soon.

You took me all the way to this Red String Temple.

What for?

Nothing much.

We were only going to grab someone as our scapegoat,

but it was you.

We will accept this deal then.

You can write to your family,

and ask your father to pay for your freedom.

So you're kidnapping me.

Sort of.

Perhaps, yeah.

I suggest you give up.

I was kidnapped once when I was young,

and my family didn't even make a reaction.

Even the kidnappers forgot where I was.

So, you are doomed to lose.

Although,

if you need someone to blackmail,

I have a suggestion.

Who is it?

Zhou Yuan from the Department of Marriage.

Who is Zhou Yuan?

It's that girl I went to steal...

A girl.

[To Zhou Yuan]

Isn't it hard to believe?

Xingyue could have

talked to me before everything.

How could she just leave me the Divorce Paper

and be done with it?

Li Mian.

Li Meng'an.

Can you be quiet for a moment?

I just had a fight with Wei Qi.

And we're still in the middle of it.

So I'm not in the mood to deal with your divorce.

At least make Xingyue come out

so that I can talk to her.

I told you a billion times, she's not here.

She must have told you something before she left.

Think about it.

Let me think.

Didn't Xingyue come to you on my birthday?

Did she mention anything?

Your birthday.

I showed you my dating tricks.

Right. I remember.

What did she say?

Xingyue came to me that day

and said some confusing things.

I've been feeling weird lately.

Weird how?

I'm not having as many dreams as before.

And every time when I wake up,

I forget things.

As Mengzhi, isn't that...

It's okay. I drew them down.

Who is this?

Xingyue.

So she had a dream about her having roast fish?

Roast fish?

It does look like that.

Mr. Li.

I have a message from Lord Li.

He wants you back at the house.

[Li's House]

Are you ready for the Weapon Ceremony?

I'm alright.

I literally lost my wife and my weapon.

With the broken Xingluo Sword,

what do we have to be on the Weapon Ceremony?

As long as the sword is broken,

I have an excuse to avoid the ceremony.

Are you saying that if the sword is repaired,

you can go to the Weapon Ceremony?

Father, you repaired the sword?

You have the face to ask.

You were supposed to do it.

With the Weapon Ceremony coming,

I asked Mr. Lin to repair the Xingluo Sword.

It's about time now.

You should go get the sword

and participate in the Weapon Ceremony.

Do you hear me?

Yes.

Did you find Xingyue?

Sorry to disappoint you,

I didn't find Xingyue,

and another person is missing too.

Who is it?

Wei Qi.

He drank with me at Tianxiang Restaurant last night.

No wonder he wasn't at the Unusual Talent Hall today.

Is it the hangover?

I wish.

But he's not at his family mansion.

Didn't you just have a fight?

Perhaps he's just avoiding you.

But if he keeps doing that,

I don't even have a chance to apologize.

You're a man.

Tell me where he could be.

I don't live in his body,

so how should I know

what he's thinking with his stubborn head?

I don't think you need to worry.

He's probably just a little mad for now,

and he'll come around in a few days.

Just wait it out.

But...

Alright. I have things to do. See you/

You...

Fresh pork. Who wants fresh pork?

Fresh pork.

Fresh pork from home pigs.

Very fresh.

Come take a look.

Miss Lin.

How much is it?

40 coins for 0.5kg.

Isn't that Miss Lin?

Why is Miss Lin shopping on her own?

Didn't you hear?

Ever since that massacre happened at Lin's house,

Miss Lin left her family.

She grew up as a lady

and now she has no one to take care of her.

Look at her glasses. Is she trying to play the sad card?

- Let's go. - Have you decided?

I want this, please.

This one, right?

It's 0.5kg. 40 coins.

I will wrap it up for you.

Wait, 0.5kg is too much.

Just cut me a small slice.

This is too much?

Sure. I will cut you a small slice.

See? It's small.

This piece is 30 coins.

I'll wrap it up.

Wait for a second.

Integrity is important in doing business.

Is everything right with your scale?

Listen to yourself.

I own a pork shop.

My whole business relies on integrity.

So how can my scale be wrong?

That's good.

Here you go.

- Did you say the small one is 30 coins? - Yes.

So this larger piece is 10 coins, right?

- Well... - I want this one.

How can you...

I...

Watch where you're going!

Isn't this Miss Lin?

Why do you not have a servant around?

- I'll help you. - No, thanks.

Don't touch me.

You're shy.

Where are my glasses?

What are you looking for?

- Come on, pretty. - Let go of me.

Are you okay?

Thank you for saving me.

Mister, have you seen my glasses?

Glasses?

I'm sorry. I stepped on them.

Watch your step.

You're home. I'll leave now.

Here are your things.

Mister, my glasses were broken,

and it might take one or two days to fix them.

I won't be able to see for the time being.

I don't have anyone around.

Can you stay here and help me?

I'm sorry.

We've only just met,

and it's a huge favor to ask.

I know how it sounds.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience. You can go now.

[Hanhai Hall]

Stop.

Will you do that again?

I won't.

I just talked to her,

and you beat me up twice.

I have bad luck.

I'm warning you. Hanhai Hall is under my protection.

If I see anyone trying anything

on Lin Yan ever again,

you'll see what I can do.

Yes.

Thank you for your mercy. I won't try anything again.

Deliver this sword to Li's house.

This is the legendary sword cairn.

Mr. Li, are you here for the Xingluo Sword?

Mr. Lin.

My father said you repaired our family sword,

and asked me to come get it.

You're right on time.

I was about to have it delivered to you.

Here is your Xingluo Sword. Please take a look.

This belonged to Xingyue.

Mr. Lin, what is going on?

What? Is there anything wrong with the tassel?

This belonged to my wife.

It wasn't there before.

What? Didn't Leader Li

tell you about this?

About what?

Mr. Lin, can you please

just tell me what's going on here?

Why is Xingyue's thing on this sword?

It's just a sword tassel.

What's the big deal?

Stop trying to fool me.

Lin Peng told me everything.

What did you say?

Use unusual talent as sacrifice?

Sacrificing an unusual talent can rebuild the Sword Ghost,

and make the sword absorb

the original power of that unusual talent.

Did he not tell you about this?

Did you sacrifice Xingyue for the sword?

What if I did?

What do you mean?

She is just a woman

with her powers deteriorating.

She is not important to our family.

You should care more about our family honor.

I've thought about it.

If you can win first place

in the Weapon Ceremony using this sword,

I will give you the family master title.

Enough.

What first place in the ceremony,

what master title of the family,

I don't care about those things.

I need to know where Xingyue is. She's all I want.

How dare you?

Talking to your father like that,

who do you think you are?

Fine.

If you won't tell me,

I'll find her myself.

I'll leave.

If you leave this house,

we will not be a family.

I never had you as a son.

Here.

Mister, you're still here.

I just walked in.

I didn't stay outside for you.

I see.

Thank you so much.

Can you help me?

Okay.

♫ The place where you are is home ♫

♫ I've brought along the flowers you gave me ♫

♫ In my life, only you can comb ♫

♫ My disheveled hair ♫

I'll make some tea for you.

What? Why are you smiling?

I'm not.

Mister, since you're so kind,

can you do me another favor?

Depends on what it is.

Don't worry.

It's not difficult.

I can't read because of my poor eyesight.

I want you to read for me.

His Lordship faced the person on the cliff,

held his hands up and said,

"I can only repay what you have done for me in my next life."

Then he jumped off the cliff.

Is that it?

Yep.

That's it?

This Huanhai Scholar finally wrote something

and he tortured me?

It's almost the end, and he kills the main character.

Is he trying to write a bad ending?

Perhaps

his life has a bad ending.

The book is only a part of it.

What do you mean?

A hero's story, written by a coward.

Don't you see the irony?

If it was wrong from the beginning,

it might as well never happen.

Alright. I've read the book. I should get going.

I want to listen.

It doesn't have to be complete.

It can be a prelude or a preface.

I want to listen to anything related to the book.

Okay.

Actually,

there is another version of the story.

But it's not about the wealthy lord,

but an orphan who's been living on the street since a young age.

Because he was so lonely,

he longed for strength.

He's even taken the wrong path for it.

Finally, one day,

fate seemed to listen

and gave him great power

without him knowing about it.

It was the beginning of a tragedy.

He had no control over it,

and he hurt innocent people.

So he chose the easiest way

which was running from it.

Then what?

That's it.

True stories are boring like that.

There are no heroes who stand up for the weak.

There are only fantasies of a coward.

Is that so?

Why do I think the character is kind of cute?

Cute? How am I...

How is the character cute?

Don't you think he's weak and useless?

But people can be weak.

Perfect people only exist in books.

The all-mighty characters are out now anyway.

Besides,

compared to those heroes who only appear at certain times,

I prefer someone who is always by my side.

What do you think?

I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a nap.

Let me go before you take a nap.

Okay. I'll wait.
