[Love Is Written in the Stars]

[Episode 21]

What is going on here?

Can anyone explain?

Yeah, Master.

Dropping us here at Red String Temple in the middle of the night,

what are you doing?

I've gone out of my way

to help you two get together.

I didn't expect you to forget about

your original intentions

in such a short amount of time.

Original intentions?

Alright. I won't take up your time any longer.

My dumb apprentice, make good use of it.

Don't let your master down.

See ya.

Can you be less articulate?

What original intentions? Elaborate before you go.

Yuan.

I don't want a perfect lover.

I only want someone to be with me for the rest of my life.

This is my wish.

You...

How did you know that?

You didn't expect it, right?

Because I was here, at this temple.

Well played, Zhou Yuan.

How many more things are you hiding from me?

Let's see.

One, two,

three.

It was a rhetorical question.

But you admitted it.

That is outrageous. Come out here.

I will show you what I've got.

I'm sorry. My bad.

♫ Stars are shining in my favorite sky ♫

Wei Qi.

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

The love bonding,

dressing up as a man,

and our first marriage,

you were all kept in the dark.

You have every right to be mad.

We don't have to talk about the past.

Besides, you had your reasons.

♫ The place where you are is home ♫

It's all good now.

You know everything about me,

including where I'm from.

I swear,

Zhou Yuan is fully disclosed to Wei Qi,

and will stay that way in the future.

Zhou Yuan.

Why are you laughing?

Do you not believe me?

Sorry. It's just...

you are all serious...

It's kind of new to me.

That's ridiculous!

I was being serious.

You...

I won't talk to you if you don't stop laughing.

You hopeless blockhead!

You can stay single for the rest of your life!

♫ The sunny day, the fate in the rain ♫

I believe you.

♫ The moment you turned around ♫

♫ You looked at me with a smile ♫

♫ The place where you are is home ♫

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

Yuan.

We should get married,

at this Red String Temple.

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

♫I'm not afraid of losing everything♫

You didn't invite me to your wedding?

Sister, that was not cool.

Ning Lan, what are you doing here?

Your master told us.

Li Mian.

It's so important,

and why didn't you tell us?

And the wedding candies.

If there are no wedding drinks, at least give us the wedding candies.

Come on.

We saw everything.

What? Are you jealous?

You can do it yourself.

Li Mian, how about you?

She's still a kid. I can't.

Ning Lan.

Kiss.

- Kiss. Kiss. - Knock it off.

Come on.

[Red String Temple]

What's taking so long?

I don't know.

I'm hungry.

Wait.

Just wait for a moment.

You can do it, okay?

Good girl.

Alright, okay.

They are here.

So gorgeous.

You look great together.

Is this your third time getting married?

The first two were somehow mistakes.

This time, it's for real.

Although, unfortunately, none of your parents are here.

Just bow to the God of Matchmaking instead.

Let's go.

Alright.

Can I not bow to him?

I can't do it looking at his face.

Hey, Your Lordship.

Think about it.

Think about how much I've done just so you can be together.

Besides,

master for one day, father for life.

I am Yuan's master,

which makes me your elder.

It doesn't hurt to bow to me.

Fine, for the sake of Yuan.

I'll do it for once.

Dear God of Matchmaking,

Wei Qi and Zhou Yuan are truly in love.

We will now be married as husband and wife.

Till death do we part.

Please bless us

and make us a couple for this life and others to come.

Bow to heaven and earth.

Bow to the God of Matchmaking.

Bow to each other.

Bow.

It's tangled together.

Someone help us.

Coming.

What did you do?

Careful.

My neck hurts.

My hair. My hair.

Careful. My head.

My head hurts.

My headwear is falling.

Ouch. Careful.

Slowly. It's heavy.

Okay, it's done.

Alright.

- Let's carry on. - Wait.

Into the bridal chamber.

Shouldn't we be in the bridal chamber together?

Why am I the only one here?

If you want to marry Officiate Zhou, you have to get past me.

What?

I won't surrender.

I won't surrender!

Master, what's going on out there?

Your bridegroom

is being tortured by unusual talents.

I will swim to our chamber then.

It's so hard to get to her.

Your Lordship.

Be careful when you walk in the night.

You should be careful.

Husband.

Wife.

Husband, look at you.

What have they done to you?

You took a toll on him before we could do anything.

How are we going to complete the ritual?

Wei Qi, are you alright?

Come on.

You reek of alcohol.

How many drinks did they give you?

What did you expect?

How else were they going to stop me?

That Jing Huan and Jiang Ran.

I don't know if they are here to give blessings

or to cause trouble.

Wait here. I'll get you some hangover soup.

What is going on?

I was on my way to the capital,

and all of a sudden...

Does it look familiar here,

Lord Wei?

Pei Yin.

What game are you playing?

Now that you're here.

Wouldn't it be a waste to go home in a rush?

You should have a good chat with your old friend.

He is the old friend you're referring to?

Willing or not,

you are now relatives by marriage.

Why don't you use this illusion to sort things out

and be friends again?

Pei Yin.

Remove this stupid illusion right now,

or I will tear your temple apart when I get back to the capital.

Did you hear me?

After all these years,

Lord Wei is still arrogant and unreasonable.

Killing people as you want.

So much power.

Zhou Pei.

Do not forget

you were also involved in The Mishap of Wuyin.

Don't act like you're innocent.

I've never denied my sins.

It is because I have regrets

that I adopted Zhou Yuan

and raised her alone.

It was to atone for my mistakes.

It's the same with me.

The Mishap of Wuyin

nearly wiped out the Allied forces,

and spread unusual talents everywhere.

I set up the Department of Marriage

just so that unusual talents

can blend in with the ordinary.

I needed to answer to the imperial court and the martial art society.

I was atoning for my mistakes in my own way.

Perhaps you're right.

In the eyes of the innocent Wuyin Tribe people,

you and I are the same.

It's the pot calling the kettle black.

The funny thing is

our children are now married,

but we two old sacks are still here

getting agitated and fighting

over past grudges.

How humiliating.

Now that I think about it,

it was actually my fault.

I shouldn't have listened to that person.

That person?

The one who revealed the secret

about Wuyin Tribe plotting a rebellion with their powers.

If it wasn't for that person,

I wouldn't have reported it to the imperial court,

or become determined to come here and suppress the rebellion.

Who was that person?

Hey,

when you were trying to draw me out,

you were quite aggressive.

Now all of a sudden,

you've lost your interest.

Pei Yin, you were impressive.

Shutting down your senses

and losing your memories,

were you having fun teasing me?

Was that not enough?

If what I've done

hurt your feelings,

I apologize.

But I'm just curious,

what did Cui Ying say to you?

To cancel a marriage?

You're saying Pei Yin went to the house of Chief-in-command to cancel the marriage?

That's impossible.

It's all just a lie.

I don't believe it.

It was one of his sneaky tricks.

You! You two are trying to trick me.

Just like what you found out by Lin Yan's Ink Reading,

16 years ago,

Pei Yin left Wuyin Village, into the house of Chief-in-command,

trying to cancel the marriage with Miss Cui,

also known as my sister.

But my sister got sick and died.

So their marriage no longer meant anything.

That's impossible.

Believe it or not,

when I met Pei Yin,

it was at the funeral.

Ever since that day,

I had powers about memories.

Stop.

Stop it.

If it was all true,

why did he keep it a secret from me?

Why didn't he tell me sooner?

I asked him for the truth back then,

and later I found out

that he was saved by the Wuyin Tribe Leader Xing Yuan.

When he was leaving Wuyin Tribe,

he promised your tribe leader

that when he's done with his business,

he will go back to Wuyin Village to find her.

However...

not long after that...

The Mishap of Wuyin caused a landslide,

and the village was gone overnight.

I know it's hard for you to take in.

But Pei Yin felt as painful as you.

Ever since then,

he's been drinking at nights.

He was beating himself up

for failing to keep up his promise to Xing Yuan.

It was so hard to watch,

so I asked to keep his memories for him.

All these years,

everything I did

was to find you

so that I can avenge my people.

But in the end,

you're telling me,

it was all for nothing?

What the heck, Cui Ying?

You told him everything there is to say.

The real murderer is still on the loose.

We can find him together.

Shut up.

There is no "we".

Don't act like we're close.

I can admit that you're not the murderer,

but that doesn't mean we are friends.

Can you try to be less hostile to me?

At least we all want the same thing,

which is to find the real person behind it.

Think about it.

Back then, apart from you and me, did anyone else

leave Wuyin Village?

Lin Peng?

No, it can't be him.

Why are you so sure?

I was the one who brought him back to Wuyin Village,

and Xing Yuan took his memories. I saw it with my own eyes.

He shouldn't remember his way to the village.

What if he found another way

into Wuyin Village?

[Wei Mansion]

It's so annoying!

It's been an hour.

Why is your hair still messed up?

It's just a hairpin.

You don't know

what it's like to be a woman.

Do I have to do this

every day now I'm married?

God. Give me a break.

It's so hard to be a woman.

What's the big deal?

I think you're just clumsy.

It's very easy.

Sit up straight.

Watch me.

You can't possibly know how to do it.

I've watched my sister do it a thousand times.

So I picked it up.

I told you to get a servant, but you wouldn't.

I'm not used to having them around.

Alright.

Take a look.

Oh my God. You knew what you were doing.

It's not that impressive.

I can do things more than that.

You'll be a lot more impressed.

What's on your mind?

Honey, I was just wondering,

how many nice things have I done

to be so lucky to meet

a nice man like you who is invincible both in the living room and the kitchen.

Yeah.

As a woman,

you're slapdash, blunt,

clumsy, and bumbling.

So many shortcomings.

You...

But I love you,

including your shortcomings.

I love everything about you.

Why do you think that is?

Because we are meant to be.

[Department of Marriage] You had the face to come see me.

Head Cui, I know we disobeyed

the rules here.

And we're here to be punished.

Tell me then, what rules did you break?

While employed by the Department of Marriage, one is not allowed to marry.

Otherwise, one has to leave the Department of Marriage.

So you knew about it.

But you still did it.

Look at what you've done yesterday.

You brought chaos

into the peaceful Wei Mansion.

How do you think you should be punished?

I'm all yours, Head Cui.

Just don't make me leave the Department of Marriage.

I will do all the filthy and heavy work.

Now that you've said it,

you should go be a factotum at the Marital Legal Section.

The Marital Legal Section?

The Marital Legal Section is a place to deal with divorce and abandonment.

People go there to get a divorce every three days.

It's always turmoil.

Letting someone who's newly married

be a factotum there

hardly seems reasonable.

What about Ceremonial Section?

Preparing for marriage ceremonies. That should be fine, right?

Getting married is the biggest deal,

and there are many things to prepare for.

Only a meticulous person can take the job.

A careless person like her

will only make things inefficient.

Then she can go to the accountant's office to manage the money and goods.

How is that?

Head Cui,

for trivial chores like this,

you can have anyone do it.

Why use her?

That's just overkill.

Not this, not that.

Mr. Director,

why don't you tell me what to do?

It's simple.

Put her in the right position, of course.

For example, she can check the registration status of unusual talents.

Check the registration status of unusual talents?

I can do that.

Fine.

Since the Director has spoken.

I guess I can only say yes.

There are some unusual talents causing trouble these days.

Zhou Yuan, you should get on that.

Find out what's going on.

Unusual talents causing trouble? Why?

Go to Yongye Workshop

and ask Jiang Ran and Jing Huan.

Let's go. The carriage is waiting outside.

Unusual talents causing trouble?

Now that I think about it,

I did hear similar incidents.

What's going on?

Going insane for no reason

and sleepwalking in the middle of the night.

Oh, right.

I heard that several unusual talents \

were going missing

in the Yongye Workshop.

Director Wei.

What are you looking at?

You know.

Obviously, I'm looking at the roster.

Director Wei, I was very respectful

to Officiate Zhou.

Shut up, I wasn't looking at you.

So...

you were looking at me.

Just look all you want.

Why use the book as your cover?

What's going on?

Something's wrong.

Let's go.

Wei Qi.

It's okay.

Another has gone insane.

That's what you meant by unusual talents causing trouble?

Let me.

[Wine and Breeze]

Could it be unusual talents being out of control?

Zhou Yuan, suck his powers.

Careful.

That hurts.

I didn't expect the countercharge to be so severe.

It makes people insane.

Not just him,

the countercharge is

normal for us unusual talents.

Poor me,

getting beaten up for no reason.

Actually, the countercharge differs in people.

If you want to suffer less, just use your powers less.

So,

you are going to give up your powers?

Or what?

If I had the power to change my fate,

why would I wait for the Department of Marriage to arrange a marriage for me?

But getting married only means passing it on

to the next generation.

It doesn't change the result.

We all know that.

But apart from getting married,

what else can we do

to get rid of the countercharge?

You are absorbing the powers.

The countercharge of this magic could be fatal.

But it is the only way for my people

to have a normal life.

What if there is a way?

For example,

if someone can suck your powers away

and make you normal,

would you do it?

But I am living in a place

offered by the Department of Marriage.

Without my powers,

would I be homeless?

The countercharge is not a big deal.

We are under the protection of the Department of Marriage.

Right, Jing Huan?

I disagree.

I want a normal life.

I want to give up my powers.

Whose powers are you going to suck away?

[Tianxiang Restaurant]

I ordered one of their specials.

- We can try it. - Here.

Your spicy chicken.

What spicy chicken?

I asked for beggar's chicken.

I remember you said spicy chicken.

Alright, sorry about that.

It was our mistake.

We will bring your beggar's chicken right away.

Please wait.

Beggar's chicken and spicy chicken are both chicken.

What's the difference?

I told you.

You can just quietly be around.

You don't have to do anything.

How can I?

You are the owner of Tianxiang Restaurant,

which makes me the owner's wife.

I have to do something.

Right.

- I can help do the dishes. - There's no need.

The dishes have been done.

Then I'll go chop up more firewood.

No, there's plenty left.

You don't have to do that.

Not this, not that.

What should I do?

I remembered.

There is some fresh bakery in the guest room.

Your favorite Osmanthus Cake.

- Osmanthus Cake? - Yes, go have it.

Awesome.

Boss, you're so clever.

I can't remember

how many dishes she shattered this month.

If it goes on like this,

not even a million dollars

are enough for her to wreck.

I wouldn't worry about that.

As long as I have food to eat,

she won't starve.

Besides, if you marry someone,

you are supposed to spoil her.

She is so tender,

and she can't do any of those menial work.

She just needs to eat well,

and I will get whatever she wants.

Although, honestly,

Miss Xingyue's memory

is getting worse.

She keeps forgetting things.

If it goes on like this, it won't be long

before she forgets who she is.

You're right.

Not just her memory,

but she is becoming more lethargic as well.

Xingyue.

Xingyue, wake...

You fell asleep like that?

I don't know what to say.

Little greedy cat.

Who are you?

You're awake.

I said, who are you?

Why did you take my Osmanthus Cake?

What are you talking about?

I asked who you are.

I...

Meteor Hairpin?

Yes.

It belonged to Xing Yuan,

and then she gave it to me.

I thought it was a dream,

but then I woke up

with the hairpin in my hand.

This ordinary hairpin?

Can it really absorb powers?

What do you know?

It's called hiding ingenuity in clumsiness.

Wuyin Stone seems pretty average,

but it contains great power.

What? Am I wrong?

If just like what Xing Yuan said,

you are the legendary descendant of StarFall.

What would you do?

Will you shoulder the destiny of a tribe like Xing Yuan?

I know what you're thinking.

You've been thinking about it since you saw

that insane person.

If only someone can take away his powers

and relieve them

from their tragic fate.

Right?

Wei Qi, you read my mind.

I can't hide anything from you.

So you took out this Meteor Hairpin

to prove to me

that you can do it too,

because you are the descendant of StarFall, right?

I don't think you should

make it so complicated and serious.

All the talk about salvation and fate.

I am not trying to be a savior.

I just...

I can't watch the people around me suffer

and do nothing.

Besides, I was absorbing powers

from people at the Department of Marriage.

What you absorbed then

was only a part of the powers and not all.

If you accept this Meteor Hairpin,

you will be in charge of the fate of the entire unusual talent tribe.

What you've experienced at the Department of Marriage

is nothing compared to it.

You're right.

Sorry, Wei Qi.

It was impulsive of me to say that.

I didn't think it through.

Please don't be mad.

Yuan, I don't want to interfere with your decision.

I know, you're always tough in speech,

but honest in your heart.

Whatever decision I make in the end,

you will support me anyway.

You've always supported me.

But this time,

I really hope you can think it through.

We just got married.

We're only starting to live our lives together.

There are plenty of fun times waiting for us ahead.

Are you really ready

to take on a heavy destiny like that?

I...

Am I a part of your plan for the future?

♫ Snow falls on the sludge and you express your heart openly ♫
