<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nWei Yun had gotten quite close before Chu Yu shot up and left the room. In the end, it appears she couldn\u2019t give in to the feelings she is looking more and more to have but is reluctant to accept. She takes a moment outside to gather herself after she tells Wei Yun that she’ll go out and get an extra quilt.<\/p>\n
She returns to the room where Wei Yun sits at the table patiently waiting for her. There was no awkwardness and no pressure to talk about what happened before. However, Wei Yun does ask about the thoughts on her mind. When she spoke about the Song brothers and Gu Chusheng and whether they had successfully returned to Huajing City, Wei Yun tried to work out whether Chu Yu\u2019s feelings were still with Gu Chusheng or that it was because she didn\u2019t trust Song Wenchang and Song Shilan.<\/p>\n
Chu Yu denies having any feelings for Gu Chusheng. She also denies not trusting Song Wenchang and Song Shilan. She explains that it\u2019s because Gu Chusheng is carrying critical information and she worries about it not getting back safely.<\/p>\n
Chu Yu was quite serious in answering Wei Yun\u2019s question. She didn\u2019t suspect that it was about her Gu Chusheng that he was looking to hear about. It was one after she finished answering, she picked it up.<\/p>\n
Wei Yun didn\u2019t admit to it when she asked, though. He pretended not to be all that curious about it when he was actually very curious. Seeing as Wei Yun only admitted to being just bit curious, Chu Yu decides to annoy him by getting up to leave and not tell him. She wanted to see him give in before she told him.<\/p>\n
Give in, Wei Yun does. He doesn\u2019t admit it in words. He just holds her back with a hand. \u201cTell me,” he says in a tone which seems to say, \u201cYou know I\u2019m very curious and you know I really want to know. Do I really need to say it for you to know?\u201d<\/p>\n
Chu Yu lets him go, sitting back down. She tells him that she definitely no longer has feelings for him because once she stops, she won\u2019t look back. She had also suggested that her feelings for Gu Chusheng were the kind that could be gotten over relatively easily. She was looking for someone who would care about her (which she lacked from her mother) and for someone who truly loved her. She equates it to how her sister Chu Jin acts out to get Chu Linyang\u2019s attention. In short, Chu Yu is suggesting her feelings for Gu Chusheng didn\u2019t run too deeply. When Gu Chusheng went his own way, her feelings for him ended.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nWith the question about her feelings for Gu Chusheng answered, Wei Yun moves to ask about her feelings for him, which she in a way avoids by talking about the first time she met him. She talks about meeting him around the age of 16 and watching his triumphant return with his family at the time. She claims to have heard all the young ladies at Spring Breeze House praise his impressiveness and the people in the city calling him the young man in white who \u201cpacified the North with a spear\u201d. She told him that he looked so good on his horse that she spotted him in an instant.<\/p>\n
She thought of Wei Yun so positively even back then. If only the details she mentioned matched up to the timeline of events. Wei Yun\u2019s first battle was at 17, not 16, and the reputation of being the young man in white who \u201cpacified the North with a spear\u201d was given after he defeated North Qi invaders at 18 and not at the time she claimed to have first met him. The story about spotting him from above, in a room at a teahouse as he rode on his horse through the city gates after returning from the battlefield, was also unbelievable. He couldn\u2019t think of a room inside any teahouse where she could do that.<\/p>\n
Wei Yun concluded it was a story she told to make him happy. Chu Yu tries to change the subject by treating him like her puppy, Xiaoqi, by asking for his hand\u2014which he offers\u2014and then praising him for being obedient. Wei Yun calls her up on it, which has her tell him more honestly. She tells him that she did see him, but at the time, she was too blind to see how outstanding he was. She tells him that if given a second chance she\u2019d take a good look at him, which leads Wei Yun to ask whether she\u2019d take a good look at him now and in the future.<\/p>\n
Chu Yu leans in, as if to take a good look at him. But as she gets close, she suddenly backs out, claiming to be too sleepy and that her sight is too blurry and can\u2019t see clearly. She was mischievously playing with him again, seemingly attempting to avoid answering him seriously. When she had leant in, it looked as if she were going to stare into Wei Yun\u2019s eyes to take a good look, but her gaze had lowered midway. The action looked like she was going to kiss him, but her line of sight under the lowered lids was off to the side. She never intended to answer his question. Wei Yun knew and took the sudden exit with a smirk. Chu Yu had sidestepped in answering him again.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nAs Wei Yun and Chu Yu prepare to retire for the night again, they receive news that the North Qi soldiers have broken into the village. Even though Cui suspects Chu Yu and Wei Yun to be not who they say they are, he and Shen still help hide them. Cui explains that he had been in such a situation before, and it was Shen who had helped hide him. Now he will help hide them, seemingly out of understanding through his own personal experience.<\/p>\n
Cui\u2019s true identity is revealed during the intrusion. Coming face to face with the North Qi commander Shen You, his identity as a former North Qi spy gets exposed. Cui\u2019s full name is Cui Yi, and he was a former North Qi spy who had fled from the battlefield and ran away from his post.<\/p>\n
Cui pleads for the villagers to be spared. In exchange, he\u2019ll go back with him willingly and take any punishment. Shen You isn\u2019t interested in taking Cui back. Nor is he going to punish Cui or the villagers. His sole goal is locating Chu Yu and Wei Yun.<\/p>\n
Shen You kicks Cui aside. As Cui and Shen\u2019s place is the last one they need to search, Shen You suspects Chu Yu and Wei Yun to be in there. Chu Yu and Wei Yun are hiding in the room, inside a closet or by a side wall, but Shen You doesn\u2019t make a move to search the room thoroughly. His focus is on Shen. She is found hiding behind a post of the bed, looking scared. Shen seemed to be enough reason for Shen You to explain Cui being so protective of the place.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nCui was about to marry Shen, a Great Sui woman, the next day, yet Shen knew nothing about his true identity as a former North Qi spy. This matter, as well as the fact that Shen You sees Cui as a \u201cmere runaway spy\u201d who he doesn\u2019t need to capture, was enough to have Shen You leave him be. He also took Cui\u2019s past contributions into consideration for leaving him a chance to live, believing that although he is allowed to stay alive, it won\u2019t be without punishment. He predicted that, because he\u2019s from North Qi, he\u2019d struggle in agony from the looks Shen would give him. This was punishment enough.<\/p>\n
With Cui spared, Shen You leaves Cui a flare and an instruction to set it off should he happen to see the people from his drawing\u2014they being Chu Yu and Wei Yun.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nThe villagers learn of Cui Yi being a person from North Qi. It has them worried, fearing Cui\u2019s identity might bring them trouble. Shen, who\u2019s kneeling beside Cui, shouts and defends him, revealing her thoughts about Cui. Her response to him wasn\u2019t at all what Shen You had predicted. She didn\u2019t care where he was from because, in her eyes, he is a good man.<\/p>\n
Cui tells the villagers that he\u2019ll leave the village the next day. He\u2019ll leave with Wei Yun and Chu Yu, who the North Qi were looking for. Falling to his knees, Cui pleads with the villagers not to give Shen a hard time for the sake of their past, presumably after he leaves.<\/p>\n
The response from the villagers is again not as predicted. The sight of Cui\u2019s sincerity and the mention of his past in this village has the villagers remember his good deeds of helping them around the village and saving them from bandits. They express having not seen Cui do anything to hurt them. They express that they do see him as a good man. With the villagers all agreeing, they tell Cui to stay.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nTo settle the worries of the villagers, Wei Yun moves to reveal himself as the Marquis of Zhenguo and assures the villagers that they will be safe with him and Chu Yu around. One of the villagers reveals himself as a centurion of the 13th Battalion of the Wei Army, Zheng Zhi. He confirms the token Wei Yun holds to prove his identity to be true, relieving all the villagers\u2019 worries.<\/p>\n
With the concerns of the villagers taken care of, Wei Yun, Chu Yu and Cui move inside to talk about delivering a letter to Chu Linyang to have him and Lu Qiba come to the village to give them a hand with a trap set to catch Shen You. Cui was also told to tell Shen You that Wei Yun and Chu Yu were expected to be at the village to attend his and Shen\u2019s wedding ceremony.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nChu Linyang, Lu Qiba and their men make it to the village. They replace the villagers, and instead of Cui and Shen getting married, Wei Yun and Chu Yu take their place. The wedding ceremony starts.<\/p>\n
The wedding may be an act, but for Wei Yun, he was going to treat it as if it were real, so his vows to her were all genuine. In front of everyone, the vows Wei Yun made were short to keep in line with the fact that this was all an act and so it didn\u2019t need to be lengthy and too deep. He tells her he’d be her husband and love her always.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nHis hopes and intentions were all said and done before the ceremony. Privately, Wei Yun made her a flower garland and had given it to her to wear on her head. On a previous occasion, Chu Yu had given him some flowers, and it had made him happy, so the garland was to symbolise his hope that she\u2019d always be happy and safe from this point onwards. Then, he asked her whether she could give him a chance.<\/p>\n
This question of Wei Yun\u2019s weighed on Chu Yu\u2019s mind when she walked down the aisle. She\u2019s been avoiding answering Wei Yun and probably trying hard to not feel anything, but she clearly has feelings for Wei Yun but doesn\u2019t want to face it.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nChu Linyang, who was the celebrant for the wedding, had even picked up on his sister\u2019s feelings for Wei Yun. Her objection to a wedding tradition of giving the groom a few hits to make the groom promise to always love and care for his wife was not missed. Later in the scene, Chu Linyang even asks Chu Yu if she\u2019s fallen for someone because she had also had him proceed with the part where she and Wei Yun bow to each other.<\/p>\n
For a wedding that was not real, she didn\u2019t have to have Chu Linyang proceed with the bow; yet, Chu Yu told him to proceed. It was as if she were also treating this wedding as real; or, she had wanted to indulge in this moment for a short time before reality returns, suggesting a desire that she is unwilling to act on.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nFollowing Wei Yun’s vows, Shen You and his men finally make their appearance. All Shen You\u2019s men are subdued without much effort with everyone\u2019s skills. Cui, Shen and the villagers who were all supposedly evacuated even took down a few after returning to the village to help out.<\/p>\n
Shen You was the only one who had made an escape. This was intentional on Wei Yun\u2019s part. He figured that capturing him to force him to talk would only result in Shen You taking his own life to protect information from being let out. The better way would be to let Shen You go and have Wei Qiu stalk him to see if he could uncover his mastermind.<\/p>\n
With the village no longer safe, Wei Yun lets Cui and Shen know he intends to have his troops escort him, Shen, and the villagers to somewhere that is absolutely safe. It\u2019s an outcome which Wei Yun feels apologetic about. His and Chu Yu\u2019s presence had resulted in them needing to relocate and start a new life. Shen assures Wei Yun it\u2019ll be fine, as their home will be wherever they and the villagers are. As long as they are together, it will be fine for them.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nBefore everyone returns to Huajing City, Wei Yun tries once more to get an answer from Chu Yu about whether she\u2019s willing to be with her. He can tell she has feelings for him. He\u2019s also aware of her concerns (that being her being seen by the public as Wei Jun\u2019s wife). He tells her that he will handle all the gossip and solve all the problems. He promises he\u2019ll heal all that has hurt her and give her everything that she lost or failed to get.<\/p>\n
He knew what worried her and what was keeping her from accepting his feelings. But it wasn\u2019t enough. His words only brought her tears. Wei Yun had moved to wrap his arms around her from behind, so he didn\u2019t know she had made her feel this way until a tear had dropped onto one of his hands.<\/p>\n
Wei Yun retreated at this point, telling her that she can forget his words if his feelings made her uncomfortable. Chu Yu never tells him it made her uncomfortable or that she doesn\u2019t feel the same way. She only tells him that she\u2019s afraid of breaking his heart and letting him down if she can\u2019t return to him the same passionate feelings that he has for her. She was not willing to accept his feelings because she wasn\u2019t willing to pay a price for it.<\/p>\n
It has Wei Yun let her go when she makes a move to leave but has yet to give up on her. Based on her response, she was afraid of the consequences they would both pay for love. Maybe she wasn\u2019t so much worried about herself but about his reputation as well, and so she is holding back.<\/p>\n
