= The Future Lover = Episode 8 =

Xingyue's stepfather is Gao Qiang.

And Gao Qiang

is the one blackmailing you.

It's likely Gao Qiang

who called Xingyue today.

Gao Qiang?

Xingyue's stepfather?

I don't know him.

Why would he extort me?

For money.

Gao Qiang loves gambling.

He owes a lot of money.

Oh,

he drove for your family for two weeks.

He knows your relationship with your mom.

So he hopes to extort a big sum of money.

So,

if today,

you and Xingyue hadn't been there,

the people hit by the board

were to be Gao Qiang and me.

That's right.

But Gao Qiang was blackmailing me.

Why did Zhong Ziye want him dead?

Because Gao Qiang

was terrible to Song Xingyue,

always hurting and insulting her.

Zhong Ziye saw a chance

to remove Gao Qiang

who hurt Song Xingyue,

as well as...

you who got misunderstood.

Then he could get away with it.

That was his goal, right?

Didn't expect

Xingyue's life was so harsh.

I always saw her smiling.

- I thought... - Zhiyi.

Xingyue, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Zhong Ziye isn't here.

Wasn't he

always with you?

He's gone.

I thought he went to you.

By the way,

today,

why were you

there anyway?

You don't know what happened?

Gao Qiang

only told me to go there,

but he didn't say why.

So,

what actually happened?

Xingyue,

no matter what happens,

you must come to us.

Yeah,

about today's events,

don't worry.

We'll handle it.

But...

Xingyue,

take care of yourself.

Let's go.

Zhiyi.

Zhong Ziye...

I know what you want to ask.

About Zhong Ziye and me,

it's complicated.

But I know

he doesn't like me.

Why not tell her the truth?

You said

Gao Qiang treats her poorly.

It shows her life

isn't as bright as it seems.

Let's try to

reduce her troubles.

First, find Zhong Ziye.

Alright.

You rascal.

What are you up to?

Let me go. I don't want the money.

It's your fault

to involve Song Xingyue.

I changed my original plan.

What's wrong with asking my daughter?

What's wrong?

The board collapsed anyway.

If I went there, I would've been crushed.

Exactly.

Why weren't you crushed?

Did you tamper with it?

What's your plan?

I'm warning you.

I've got

your recording.

Is this

what you mentioned?

How did you get it?

I hid it well.

If I dared give it to you,

I could retrieve it

whenever needed.

Now I understand,

since the beginning,

you planned against me,

gave money, and made me extort Qin Zhiyi.

Why set me up?

Why betray me?

Was it Song Xingyue?

Did Song Xingyue order this?

I knew it.

She seems gentle,

but hides deceit.

It's me who wanted to hurt you.

You made Song Xingyue suffer.

You'll repay it a thousand times.

Zhong Ziye is missing.

Gao Qiang disappeared too.

Gao Qiang forced Song Xingyue
to the Ghost Building.

It ruined Zhong Ziye's plan

and put Song Xingyue in danger.

So Zhong Ziye got furious

and took Gao Qiang away.

Zhong Ziye is extremely dangerous now.

No matter what you do next,

don't act on your own.

Always tell me first.

- I'll go with you. - Okay.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

- Apologies. - It's fine.

Is the wound reopening?

I'm fine. Let's think first

where Zhong Ziye would take Gao Qiang to.

Let's go.

You figured it out.

Change the bandage first.

Stop hitting me.

You know it hurts, right?

What are you doing?

Let me go.

Let go, let go, release me.

Do you know why I brought you here?

This is where

you pushed Xingyue.

Push?

I... I didn't do that.

I've never been here.

Never been here, never.

Scared now?

Imagine how scared Xingyue was.
