for almost a month.

She's most probably just out...

... on a trip by herself.

Let's wait for a few more days.

I agree. Huixiang called me herself.

What's wrong, mom?

Mom!

Come and stay with us for a couple of days.

Huixiang may return in a couple of days.

I don't want to trouble you.

Bao.

Why don't you come to stay with me?

Is that okay for you?

Didn't Bao say so?

Huixiang always disappeared...

... like that without a word.

I know.

This time I just felt...

a bit weird.

The night Huixiang disappeared,

Bao didn't go home either.

The day after that I saw her...

I have a hunch...

her forehead had a bruise.

Bao may have something to do...

... with Huixiang's disappearance.

Don't worry.

I'm free in the next few days.

I'll help you to find her.

Waiter!

Coming.

I'm finished. Thank you.

It's nothing.

Nan!

Nan!

Do you have something to tell me?

Is it possible that...

...Huixiang has amnesia?

Finished.

Don't break it up.

Let me take a couple of more photos.

That was quite difficult.

It can't be amnesia.

She had called Mrs. li.

Why did you choose an all-White jigsaw?

You're awesome!

What's all this photographing?

Did you find anything?

This is weird.

You said...

...Huixiang called Mrs. li?

Then she should be fine.

I can only hope so. But...

what?

Nan also mentioned that...

Huixiang had impersonated Bao once in...

...Beijing and replaced Bao in

a performance. She was brilliant, too.

Bao was very upset by that.

I have the full picture now!

It's all jealousy! Women's jealousy.

Jealousy...

it's terrible!

Jealousy kills, don't you know that?

It's very late now.

Do you know Huixiangs whereabouts?

How do I know?

You're right. How would you know.

You miss her?

She's your sister. Of course I do.

She's my sister, that's why you miss her.

I miss her, too.

Did you notice?

Every time we came home,

Huixiang wore this red dress.

Take a look.

Have you had enough?

This is funny?

She was very unstable in every performance.

And the blocking was always wrong.

But there's no denial that...

... Baos getting better and better.

Well, I don't think so.

On the contrary,

I think she's a bad influence to the troupe.

You're too far-Fetched.

No matter what, replace her.

Otherwise...

Ill quit.

Amy...

let me!

Amy!

Li Huiniang, what's my crime?

Jia Sidao!

As prime minister,

you have failed your country.

You're obsessed with

your wives and concubines.

War is imminent,

yet you're not taking any action.

Li Huiniang!

You're insolent!

How dare you insult me?

I'll sentence you to death!

My lord, be merciful!

Sis...

Amy!

Amy! Amy...

get the ambulance, hurry!

Quick, move away!
