Fighting for Love Episode 3 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
At the post station, A Mai, taking advantage of others' unpreparedness, quickly sneaked out to untie her partner. Unexpectedly, the government official on duty this time was too diligent, the ropes were tied too securely, and she couldn't untie them after much effort, and was even caught red-handed by the official. As a result, A Mai and her partner were tied up together. If they were truly tied outside until the next day, they would surely freeze to death.
Fortunately, A Mai was lucky. Not long after, another group arrived at the post station. Shang Yizhi arrived at the post station with his entourage to stay. Seeing his former lifesaver in distress, he immediately pleaded with the official in charge to untie them. Shang Yizhi had proof of his official position. When the official saw that the proof was genuine, he immediately obediently released them.
A Mai gave the official some incentive, and her partner also got a room to shelter from the cold. The weather was freezing, and night was falling. A Mai casually said she would squeeze in and rest with the accompanying officials. Shang Yizhi immediately invited A Mai to share a room with him. The other party was the eldest son of the Sheng household, and their statuses were vastly different, so A Mai naturally knew to keep her distance.
Returning to the room, Shang Yizhi's personal guard Mu Bai complained that his master should not have exposed his true identity for a mere Jianghu person. Now countless people were watching them and would eliminate him at all costs. Shang Yizhi was not bothered by this. A Mai had saved him twice before. Both logically and emotionally, he could not stand by and watch her die. Knowing A Mai was a woman, Shang Yizhi was worried about her.
So he went alone to A Mai's lodging. There happened to be some wine on the table. After a few drinks, Shang Yizhi chatted with A Mai. He talked about his recent situation. His masters, father, and refuge had all been framed. He felt like a piece of duckweed drifting on the horizon, likely to be swallowed by the surging waves at any moment. A Mai could empathize.
A few years ago, she personally witnessed her father and mother being killed by others. The brother she had always trusted was actually the executioner. Family hatred and old grudges surged forth. A Mai was reborn from that day on. By dawn, A Mai had already left the inn. On the way, she suddenly saw a group of suspicious people changing into official uniforms. A Mai felt very suspicious.
She quietly picked up a token that one of them had dropped on the ground. Realizing things were not good, she immediately returned to the post station. She told Shang Yizhi what she had seen, reminding him to be careful. This group was clearly coming for Shang Yizhi. A Mai did not want Shang Yizhi to take risks.
So she took out the token and showed it to the post station manager, claiming she was a secret agent from the Ministry of Justice, who had received a secret imperial order to investigate a group of bandits disguised as court officials. She then told the post station manager to be especially vigilant, and if they encountered a group claiming to be from the government, they must keep them stable. The initial rapport made the post station manager believe her.
For the rest of the time, he safely followed A Mai's instructions. Although A Mai was just a woman, she was extraordinarily intelligent. She immediately thought of a way to get away in the confusion. She had the post station manager summon the local officials, reporting that someone was impersonating people from the Ministry of Justice. While the local officials were uncertain of the situation, she immediately led Shang Yizhi and his entourage to safety.
It was time to part ways. Shang Yizhi wanted to persuade A Mai to travel with him. But A Mai had a great revenge to seek, so she politely refused Shang Yizhi. She continued her journey alone. Looking at A Mai's retreating figure, Shang Yizhi's heart was filled with mixed emotions. He didn't know what awaited him ahead. If he could meet A Mai again, he definitely wouldn't let her go easily.
