Escorting by an officer, TanTan and Xiaorue head to the court room. In the way, they see Lady FengHuang, QingQing and the beard man, also escorted by another officer to the same place. Each of the party are surprising to see one another, especially Lady FengHuang who clearly unpleased to see TanTan. She throws her face and tries to walk ahead from TanTan.

"Wait!" As a reflex ,everyone stops and looks to TanTan, confusedly, including XiaoRue, ’What is XiaoJie want to do?’

A worse scenario has drawn in her mind.

TanTan notices that officers in this place seems still respect HuaMuTan as their young Madam, so TanTan boldly asks them,

"I like to speak with them for a while!"

The officers look to each other, unsure. One of them dare to speak,

"But...Prince Li order us to take them immediately..."

"It won’t too long!" TanTan uses a sharp tone, which makes the officers finally listen to her, they step aside, giving space for TanTan to meet others...

Lady FengHuang is in the front of the others so she thought that TanTan would come to her first and probably slap her. She felt have to defend herself, so she covers her face,

"Don’t come...HuaMuTan...I warn you..."

But TanTan just walk passing her, she approaches QingQing,

"Are you okay? I am sorry to put you in this condition even though you had tried to save me before..."

QingQing widens her eyes, she doesn’t expect HuaMuTan would shown a grateful attitude like this, she likes it and smiles,

"I am fine...but..." She glances to Lady FengHuang, "My Sister...she..."

This time TanTan who gives a surprise look, she widens her eyes and right away comparing QingQing with Lady FengHuang’s faces. They are not too alike, but still having some similar face parts. What makes them so different is about their choosing appearance. QingQing is much more casual than Lady FengHuang who looks glamour. TanTan giving a questioning look to QingQing...by pointing to Lady FengHuang like wanna to say,

’She is your sister??!’

QingQing understands the look so she just nods clarifies what TanTan asked.

TanTan sudden closer to QingQing and whispers to her,

"Anyway..is she the one you said can help and give me any clues? For the one I am looking for?"

QingQing once again nods her head, this time she gives a regretful look,

"But unfortunately I didn’t know that you are HuaMuTan...so I think my sister won’t help you..."

TanTan observes Lady FengHuang again, feeling unsure that this woman can help her to find the silver mask...

Lady FengHuang starts to feel annoyed, so she approaches HuaMuTan in upset,

"HuaMuTan,what are you talking to my Young sister?!"

TanTan looks to Lady FengHuang. She personally doesn’t like her unfriendly attitude but TanTan feels she might gets something useful from her...so she smirks to her,

"Calm down...I don’t want to fight with you, Lady FengHuang....I want to make a deal with you..."

Lady FengHuang narrows her eyes, with suspicion she asks,

"Deal?...What deal?"

"Well...I can’t speak it loudly, come here..."

TanTan talks to Lady FengHuang and QingQing with soft voice till the beard man beside them can’t hear them clearly. Moreover, the officers who stand in front of them,

One of the officer looks to them in worry,

"Should we report about this to Prince Li?"

Another officer shakes his head,

"Not wise, my friend... don’t you know our young Madam? You will end horribly."

"Yeah, you’re right..."

Both of them remember of any stories about HuaMuTan that they heard, one of them was when HuaMuTan punished an officer for telling bad news about her to Prince Li. That officer was being beaten badly and chased away from the city forever. So they decide to keep silence and hoping that their silence can protect their job.

After TanTan finishes explaining her ’deal’, she asks again to Lady FengHuang,

"So...do we have a deal?"

Lady FengHuang seems trouble to make decision, but QingQing urges her,

"Its not a bad deal, FengJie...just accept it..."

Somehow after listening about TanTan’s ’deal’, Lady FengHuang can’t hold a strange feeling she has,

"Why do you want to make that ’deal’ to me? You know I don’t like you ,HuaMuTan...and that ’deal’ seems weird for me...are you really willing to do that to your husband?"

TanTan sighed,

"If this is about Prince Li...don’t worry...I don’t care about him anymore, your help later is more important to me... so if you take the deal, I add the bonus that I won’t disturb you with Prince Li anymore next time..as long...you also don’t force him with the wrong way again..." Lady FengHuang still feel weird but TanTan rushes her, "Lady FengHuang, There is no much time to think, deal or not?!"

"Fine...I take it..." Lady FengHuang presses her doubt feeling coz the deal actually really a good catch for her. She just wonder that this HuaMuTan really can make it happen or not later.

"Okay, QingQing and..." TanTan just realizes that the beard man still standing beside, trying to hear them, "this man..."

"TaGou...that’s my name" The beard man introduces himself shortly suddenly,

TanTan continues,

"And..TaGou here..can be the witnesses of our deal, you can’t break the deal later..."

"Don’t underestimate me HuaMuTan! I Lady FengHuang always keeps my promise even though with someone like you...!"

"Hey, how about me? Do I need to involve in your deal too? I got nothing there..." TaGou finally speaks his own mind.

The officers feels its already too long for letting HuaMuTan gets her chatting time with others, Prince Li must have waiting for them right now. So one of the officer asks TanTan politely,

"Young Madam,may we go now? We are afraid that Prince Li has waiting for you and others..."

"Just a minute..." TanTan glances to TaGou and whispers to him sharply,

"Don’t worry, as long as you cooperate with us...you can get free also but if not, you will deal with prison problem alone, how ’bout it?". Actually TanTan just bet on herself about this TaGou, he seems not a bad guy, just a heavy drunker. Hopefully he chooses to join in their deal.

"Well...I have no problem with jail anyway...beside I don’t do anything wrong..."

TanTan can’t think anything else to convince him coz he is right...he just a victim here and can be a strong witness who ruin their deal.

"Ah, please...handsome man, won’t you be a hero for a day to save this weak woman. I will be so...so...so..grateful.." Lady FengHuang steps forward, approaching him, seducing him with her sensual body and her begging face.

"I am in!" TaGou doesn’t need time to think coz from the beginning he seems already attracted by Lady FengHuang.

With a victory face, Lady FengHuang walks passing TanTan,

"That’s how to deal with man..."

and then TaGou follows her like a loyal bulldog while TanTan and others also following behind, they are walking, be escorted by the officers again.
