Lust, Caution Page #4
This is a more modern design.
Your dress is ready.
I'll try it on.
Go and eat first, don't wait for me.
Does Mrs. Mak often make her clothes here?
Yes.
She's a frequent customer of ours.
It's too fitting, I can't breathe properly.
Mrs. Yee originally chose this one.
But she didn't want it so I took it.
I'll leave it as it is then. I'll take it off.
Wear it.
Alright.
Is Mrs. Yee ok?
Old Cao will bring her to the doctor.
She said she had a headache when we were about to leave. Must be the mahjong.
My husband doesn't like me to play mahjong too.
I said, men have many ways to entertain themselves outside.
But for women, we can only shop and play mahjong.
Mahjong isn't that bad, at least we stay at home.
When I called today
did I disturb you?
My husband isn't home, he went to Singapore.
So his friends came over to accompany me
in case I was bored.
But in fact he's getting them to keep watch on me.
I had an excuse to escape because you called.
Really?
I don't mind going out alone when I'm free.
My husband isn't interested in the things I like.
What do you like?
Watching movies. He doesn't want to go so I go alone.
He's always talking business with those friends of his.
They're not interested in the movies at all.
Mr. Yee is a busy man. Only frivolous people watch movies.
No, that's not it. I'm afraid of the dark.
Will you drink some?
We don't know many people in Hongkong, so we're always troubling you.
It's trivial stuff, you don't have to stand on airs.
If you're observant, nothing is trivial.
There don't seem to be many customers here.
It's because their food sucks.
Sorry. But it's convenient to talk here.
No one will disturb you.
Is Mr. Mak busy with his work?
I don't even know what he's busy about.
He went to Singapore in the past two days.
But as long as the men don't come home, everything else's fine.
Isn't it?
What kind of business does Mr. Mak do?
Import and export.
If you're so interested in Mr. Mak,
I'll bring him along the next time.
At least men have more conversation topics among themselves.
With women they can only talk about trivial matters.
To me, a chance to talk relaxedly like this
is hard to come by.
The people I associate with are those with high reputations.
They talk all the time about politics.
The fate of generations hang by their mouths.
It doesn't matter what their views are.
In all of their eyes I see the same thing:
What?
Fear.
What about you? You're different from the rest.
You're not afraid, are you?
What about you?
You're smart, but you're not very good at mahjong.
Yeah, I always lose.
I've only won you before.
Your suit is ready, do you want me to collect it for you?
I'll call you.
I have an appointment later.
I still have some time, so I'll send you home first.
Is it convenient?
Yes.
They're here!
Turn off the lights, guard the outside.
Thanks. I'll send you to the door.
You don't have to.
Wait for me.
They're coming!
Turn off the lights!
They're about to come in.
Don't blame me if you miss your appointment.
Too bad you have an appointment...or, you can send the car away.
Come up for some tea.
Give me a stiff drink.
He's very careful, when we were at the tailor's
he sent away Old Hsiao and the bodyguard.
That means even Old Hsiao isn't someone he trusts.
No worries, just do the same thing the next time
and get him into the house, we'll get him with one bullet.
He's wary of "Mr. Mak", so he won't come in.
He meets at very obscure places.
Possibly Old Hsiao might not even know of them.
Is he interested...
Mr. Mak isn't pleased.
Not yet. But I know his intentions.
Otherwise he wouldn't have sent me to the door.
It's just that he's too afraid to come in.
He was dallying by the entrance.
He said he wanted to see me again.
I originally thought of meeting at the cinema.
Since it'll be easier to make an escape there.
But he's a really careful man.
He said he wouldn't go to dark places.
If he calls again it'll be serious.
I'll have to agree to be his mistress.
And then?
Have you guys thought, what next?
Do you know how to do it?
Between a man and a woman...?
You've all discussed this before already?
Who?
Only Liang Junsheng has experience.
With a whore?
Do you want to drink?
No need.
The lights.
You seem to be more responsive today.
I don't want to discuss this with you.
We cooked some porridge.
Hello? Mrs. Mak, how are you?
I called you two days ago.
But you weren't in.
I wanted to ask if you've tailored the clothes?
You're not having it done any more? Why?
Going back to Shanghai?
Well, congratulations then.
I'll go over right now.
You haven't called for the past few days.
So I thought I'd drop by.
I'll go to the airport tomorrow then.
I should really...
I should really see you off, right?
You're leaving just like that?
I see.
Give Mr. Yee my regards.
Bon voyage.
Goodbye.
Moving house? Hope I'm not disturbing.
Huang, you're no longer driving? A mover now are you?
What are you doing here, Cao?
To pay Mr. and Mrs. Mak a visit.
And their cute friends.
What do you want?
Right from the start I knew something was wrong.
so I could see what you were up to.
So Mr. Mak is from Lingnan University.
Cao, don't do anything reckless.
Mr. Yee didn't take me to Shanghai.
Why don't I repent my ways?
I know a lot more than you guys.
Your superiors must know
that I'm more valuable than you guys.
How much money do you want?
I'd say at least 10 gold taels.
And that doesn't include Mrs. Mak's price.
I'm thinking Mr. Yee would pay even more for her.
You're asking for it!
You really have it going, bro.
I didn't know you were a spy.
You should be the one helping me out.
Instead why are you making use of me?
Even though we're fellow villagers.
You helped a traitor!
You should have known what was coming for you!
He's not dead yet.
You're back?
Morning.
You're back.
Morning.
Aunt, I'm back.
Has your father written?
I'll check the mail later.
Aunt, I'm going to school.
You're still letting her study?
I sold off the house her father left for her.
In return I agreed to let her finish her studies.
I'm a person who keeps her word.
It is the time for victory!
In the past 500 years,
having endured the tyranny of Imperialism
the whole of Asia has now
broken free and achieved freedom.
Asia is now returning to Asians' hands!
For every day it is not,
we will fight unceasingly for freedom!
You'd never have expected
that our actions in Hongkong
After you left that night,
they appeared and cleaned up the mess.
They smuggled us out of Hongkong.
Who's "they"?
They're from Chongqing, they're the ones
who assassinated the Shanghai mayor.
Now you know how childish we were.
It was really ridiculous.
Yes, especially me.
I was just dumb.
It was my fault.
