他刚回家，就又成了一颗棋子

Murong Qingyi spent three years in prison.

Today, he came home.

His family did not ask whether he was tired or what he wanted to do.

You're back. We need to prepare for the engagement. You will marry Huo Minxian.

I just got home. You've already arranged everything for me?

The two families have business to do together. This marriage is important.

When I was in prison, you didn't need me. Now there is business to do, and you remember that I belong to this family again.

You are a son of this family. You must help this family.

So I have no choice.

Everyone has their own responsibilities.

You're talking about my marriage. Why isn't it my choice?

Qingyi left prison and returned home, but his family still wanted to choose his life for him.

Murong Qingyi, I will not marry you.

I don't want to marry you either.

Then go and tell them to cancel the marriage.

Why don't you go?

My father's death is connected to you. I will not forget.

That is what you believe. Today, we are talking about marriage.

I don't like you, and I will not listen to you.

I didn't ask you to listen to me. Our families are making both of us obey.

You and I are different.

Neither of us can choose. Right now, we are the same.

You have been in prison. Don't say we are the same.

Our families put us into the same marriage.

You are angry with me, and I am angry with you.

That way, our families do not have to listen to either of us.

Neither of them wanted to marry. They did not say no together. They treated each other as the problem first.

Is that Huo Minxian?

Look!

Turn it off! Turn it off now!

Huo Minxian appeared in the film with another man.

Every guest saw it.

The reporters also took photographs.

Don't take pictures!

A few minutes earlier, Minxian was still the wife chosen by the two families.

Now everyone was talking about her.

The Huo family was furious and no longer wanted the marriage to continue.

Are you satisfied now?

You think I did this?

It no longer matters who did it. You are free, and everyone is looking at my scandal.

I didn't want to leave this way.

But you can leave. What about me?

See? You still have a choice.

The Huo family wants to cancel the marriage. It is over. You can leave.

I never said I wanted to cancel it.

You have never wanted to marry. Why aren't you leaving now?

You arranged for me to come, and now you are arranging for me to leave. That is not freedom.

What do you want to do?

There is a secret in the Huo family's business. I have photographs, and I know where the witness is.

The reporters will not receive any more photographs.

The witness can also remain silent.

But the marriage will continue.

We will sit down and discuss what happens next.

Are you threatening both families?

I am making you listen to me.

What do you want to gain from this secret?

I want to choose for myself. I will decide when I leave and what I do.

Qingyi did not walk out through the open door.

He used the Huo family's secret.

Now both families had to listen to him.

You won.

They cannot arrange everything in my life anymore.

But you arranged my marriage again.

If I do nothing, they will not listen to me.

You made them hear you because you hold my scandal in your hands.

I need this opportunity.

You said we were both pawns. Now you refuse to be a pawn, and you are choosing where I must go.

Qingyi gained some freedom. He also took some of Minxian's freedom away.

The film reel in the cinema was missing.

A young woman took the film reel.

She left no name, only a gentian flower.

Ren Susu.

Ren Susu was someone Qingyi once loved.

Three years earlier, Qingyi believed she had died.

The gentian flower reminded him of the past.

This was her favorite kind of flower.

A flower could not tell him who the woman was. But Qingyi began to hope that Susu might still be alive.

Keep searching. I want to know who took the film reel.

The next day, the engagement began.

Qingyi and Minxian stood together.

Qingyi's older brother was also waiting for his wife.

Fang Mulan walked in.

Qingyi saw her face and forgot everyone around him.

She had the same face as Ren Susu.

Susu?

Hello. My name is Fang Mulan. I am going to marry your older brother.

Who are you really?

I already told you. I am Fang Mulan.

Did you take the film reel from the cinema?

Yes. This is my gift to you for our first meeting.

Do you know Ren Susu?

Today is an engagement day. We will have plenty of time to get to know each other later.

Why do you have her face?

You can find the answer slowly.

Qingyi had just used a secret to make both families listen to him.

Now Fang Mulan stood before him with Susu's face and the cinema's secret.

Was she Ren Susu? Why had she come to this family? Episode one did not answer.
