Lost in Beijing Page #3

Synopsis: Lin Dong and Wang Mei are a childless couple in Beijing, wealthy, approaching middle age. Lin owns a foot-massage parlor. One afternoon he rapes one of his workers, Liu Pingguo, who has nearly passed out from drinking alcohol with a friend. Part of the assault is witnessed by Liu's husband, An Kun, a window washer. He's angry with the boss and with his wife, and he seeks compensation. Lin's wife counsels him and joins in revenge. Then, Liu realizes she's pregnant and a set of emotional calculations ensues: Lin wants to buy the child, Wang agrees but has conditions, An Kun goes back and forth and barely contains his anger; Liu withdraws. The baby comes. Can anything be sorted out?

He doesn't care much about money

But he does care a lot more about face

He will lose face if he gives you money

Cutie, there is no way you can get that money

You want to report him?

It is a no-win situation for you, too

What evidence have you got?

Who can tell what really happened?

Isn't that obvious?

Unless you really love money

If you're not just in for the money

I can have other solutions for you

Like what?

My husband f***ed your wife

Why don't you f*** his wife?

That bastard

That a**hole

What are you staring at?

It's French

A gift from a customer

Perfume?

Perfume

It's gorgeous

Anyway, it's free

Just eat

You know how stupid the jerk is?

He not only sings like sh*t, but filthy-minded as well

I told him if he wants to touch me

He has to buy me a cell phone

And he really bought me one

You let him touched you?

Only once

Look, nice phone?

That jerk is calling again

Let's take a picture

Is the picture clear?

Very clear

As good as a proper camera?

An Kun

We don't need him in the picture

An Kun

Get closer

Get ready

Somebody is outside the window

How could it be?

Yeah, there's someone

The curtain is drawn, how could you tell?

There's really someone

There's no one

You f***ed somebody's wife

What are you talking about?

Her husband even saw your butt

That jerk came to you?

Don't listen to him

He's all bullshit

I'm not talking to you anymore

Get me the candle

F***

It's not mine

For sure, it's not mine

What if it's yours?

No way, we didn't have sex back then

You don't remember anything, do you?

Of course we did

We did at that time

I'll drink your pee if it is mine

Go drink it!

I don't want it anyway

I will get an abortion tomorrow

F***ing sh*t

What are you doing?

Why are you talking like that?

Stop talking about the past

Don't do it

It's none of your business

Since it is not yours, why keep it?

If you dare to do it, I'll break your leg

I will do it tomorrow

It's my belly, not yours

Don't do that

This is a chance from heaven

How are you related to him?

I'm his cousin

He says he's your cousin

Are you his wife's cousin?

Yeah

You can go in

No, no. I'm not here to fight

I'm here to tell you something

You dare to claim to be my cousin?

I was afraid you wouldn't let me in

Of course I don't want you to come in

Go away

I really have something to tell you

You have a cold, is it serious?

Liu Pingguo is pregnant

Congratulations

I should congratulate you

Your wife is pregnant, what's that to do with me?

Let's calculate the dates

On September 20, you and Liu Pingguo...

Today is October 23

See, the dates match

What do you mean by that?

I tell you, as long as I live
