Temptress Moon Page #3

Now you're back

and in love with that witch.

You won't even let me...

cy on your shoulder.

Zhongliang.

What you did ruined my life.

Me, the one person in the world

who really loves you.

You've destroyed me!

Come with me! Take a look!

This is my life!

One male fish. One female.

Ten years with two fish!

Brother.

Come give sister a kiss.

Take care, sister.

Duanwu!

Duanwu!

Pang An.

Pang An?

Pang An!

Ruyi's run off with my brother!

Pang An!

Pang An!

Pang An.

Pang An!

I've lost Zhongliang!

He told me to wait,

then he disappeared!

I can't find him anywhere!

Duanwu!

Zhongliang!

Zhongliang!

Zhongliang!

You traitor!

Did you think you'd

be Master if Ruyi left?

What will you try next?

Beat the traitor!

Beat this bastard!

We'll make a man of you yet!

This will teach you!

Wonder if Zhongliang's

in Peking yet.

-

-

- Zhongliang's here.

- What's he doing?

- He's in the dance hall. Okay.

- Watch him.

Boss wants to see you.

You're back.

Come here.

Have a drink.

Boss.

I've done you wrong.

Welcome back to Shanghai.

You belong here.

It's not the same without you.

Boss...

I lied to you.

The woman on Heavenly Lane...

her husband's been back

a long time.

I'll do the job!

I'll do it tomorrow!

I lied to you! I lied!

Zhongliang.

- It's all right.

- I lied to you!

I should never have sent

Zhongliang to the Pangs.

It was my mistake.

There's plenty of money

in the world...

but only one Zhongliang.

I need him.

Zhongliang's a son to you.

When he cried that night...

and promised to do

the Heavenly Lane job...

I knew he'd

finally come around.

No, he cried because

his heart was divided.

This worries me.

How shall I put it?

When an immortal

descends to Earth...

how can he return to the sky?

We have to get...

this Heavenly Lane

business right.

Let's let the Pang girl...

see for herself what

Zhongliang's really like.

She'll fall right out of love.

Then he'll be able

to move on.

- Boss.

- Know what to do?

Go to Ruyi,

say Zhongliang sent me

to take her to Peking.

Instead,

bring her to Shanghai...

and take her home

when it's over.

Boss doesn't want

the Pangs' fortune.

Boss only wants Zhongliang.

- Miss Pang.

-

I'm going to make

a phone call. Wait here.

This is Shanghai!

Good. Settle them in first.

Bye.

We'll finish

the Heavenly Lane job tomorrow.

County boy!

Come have fun!

- F*** off.

- Mind your own business.

Come on, Miss Pang.

Come in.

You're right.

You're in Shanghai,

not Peking.

Zhongliang's here

in Shanghai too.

Tomorrow morning at 6:00...

I'll take you to see him.

I'm going to see him tomorrow.

These are Zhongliang's...

classmates.

Isn't he here?

I've missed you so much.

Don't.

I want to look at you.

Go ahead.

I've wronged you.

I'm so sorry!

Zhongliang!

Quiet.

Don't make a sound.

- Zhongliang!

- He's dead.

Mrs. Shen, will you call

your husband or shall I?

Phone him? Why?

Why? To ask him over.

We'll all have

a friendly chat.

But maybe you,

me and Zhongliang

can manage on our own?

Zhongliang?

That's right.

He's one of us.

Well, Mrs. Shen?

What? Are you crazy?

I'll make the call!

Zhongliang.

I don't care about

what's happened today.

I just want to know...

did you ever love me?

Talk to me!

Tell her. Speak.

Come on!

Say something!

Did you ever love me?

I see.

-

-

Ah San!

Let's get out of here!

HEAVENLY LANE:

Police taken care of?

All done.

My poor Zhongliang.

He's ruined.

Go away!

Give me back my Zhongliang.

I want the old Zhongliang back!

Little sister,

can I find you a customer?

You could start tonight.

Try it!

- Get your kicks,

make some money.

-

Stop acting like a saint. You're

no better than the rest of us.

I got lost.

Those women chased me.

In Shanghai...

men and women are at war.

One side will win,

the other will lose.

Some women would die

for their man.

Like the one who jumped.

She lost the war.

She lost.

I don't want to lose.

Are you listening?

Tomorrow I'm going

to see Zhongliang.

Did you love her?

What's it to you?

You came to Shanghai

to ask that?

You put on Western clothes

and you act up!

Know what I am?

Or how many women I've had?

I use and betray them!

I grind them into the dirt!

But still...

they want me.

They kneel before me.

They cy for me,

smile for me!

Did you love her?

I'm not a servant anymore.

We men rule in Shanghai!

Well put.

Miss Pang...

are you still

in love with him now?

If you'd like

a few more days in Shanghai...

I'm at your service.

Tell me when you want to go.

Zhongliang...

whoever you are...

I don't mind.

Do you love me?

Tell me. Tell me.

-

-

Duanwu!

- Duanwu.

- Sister-in-law.

You're back.

Did you see my brother?

Duanwu.

Duanwu!

I shouldn't tell you

how he makes his living.

young master Jing is here.

Master Jing?

The one whose family broke

the engagement with you.

Why's he here?

He didn't say.

He's been waiting for days.

Here he is.

Come, young master Jing. Please.

Young miss is back.

This is young master Jing.

Your father broke

our engagement.

Yes, but he never consulted me.

Not about the betrothal,

nor its cancellation.

When I was in Japan I decided...

I would meet you myself.

How else would I know

what you were like?

I smoke opium.

I'm poison.

Doesn't that bother you?

I work for myself

in Shanghai.

And I can choose

the kind of wife I want.

Zhongliang is ruined.

Little brother.

Zhongliang,

I know about Shanghai.

It's all my fault! It is!

But Ruyi can't save you!

Don't go after her!

Who sacrificed everything

to save you?

Me! Remember? Your sister!

No, this can't be true.

I know you're angry with me.

You're not marrying for love...

but out of spite.

In your heart...

it's me you really want.

Let's go to Peking.

This time I mean it.

I don't love you.

Come with me to Peking!

I don't love you anymore.

Why did you come to the club?

If you hadn't...

I wouldn't be here now.

I went to ask you something.

You refused to answer me...

same as that other woman.

You wouldn't answer me...

but now I understand.

You can't answer.

You're afraid.

Your heart is dead.

You cannot love.

I love you!

It's too late.

I love you.

It's too late now.

In a few days...

I'll be a bride.

I've always wanted

to get married.

I've been waiting...

waiting.

My bridal costume's

nearly finished.

And I've chosen my husband.

I can do whatever I want...

and this is what I want.

I'm going to Shanghai.

I'll be back in three days.

I've prepared

your bags, sir.

But I have something

to tell you.

The young miss

has slept with...

both me and Zhongliang.

What he says is true.

Here.

I just poisoned your husband.

I put arsenic in his opium.

I'll say good-bye now.

I'm really going

to Peking this time.

I don't know why...

but I often think of that

evening I first came here...

and how the moon

was so bright.

We were all so young then.

You ran barefoot...

in the Ancestral Hall

and I saw you outside...
