Recap: Ep 8 - Ching Ching Relapses

How can Fei Fan be so creepy...? This episode really made me shiver in disgust.

Mrs. Yeung is worried about Yeung Yeung going back to work as a policeman and opposes it until Lau Sing, along with the other men, proudly states that it was the police chief who saved their jobs and insisted they return immediately. Dong Lei grows quiet at the lie and when she is alone with Lau Sing later, she tests him again about his story. When he stands by his lie, she blames him for never telling her the truth and asks him one last time. With no other choice, Lau Sing reveals that the reason they have their jobs back is actually because Gau Mui helped him. Dong Lei, still thinking that it was actually Fei Fan's help, gets even more upset. She finally reveals her version of the story and Lau Sing gets furious, as he usually does when Fei Fan comes up as a subject. They fight once again...

Recap: Ep 7 - Failed Business

Sadly, this is only the beginning of a series of misfortunes for Lau Sing...

Lau Sing and the other men depart from Ju Long Lei to plan for their future business together. Yeung Yeung purposefully stays behind so that he can see Ching Ching leave for work. Knowing that her workplace is nearby, he offers her a ride on his bike.

Recap: Ep 6 - Siu Hong Plots Against Gau Mui

Such a long and convoluted episode... whew!

Gau Mui proudly announces that she is loyal above all and assures the policemen she will help them in the future if Fei Fan causes them grief again. Lau Sing and the other men leave the Cheng house and walk home, excitedly discussing all the extra money they are going to get back from Fei Fan which amounts to $987. However Lau Sing is still worried by Gau Mui's way of changing mood without warning. He is greatly disturbed by the way she goes from anger at his story of Choi Hing to kindness and willingness to help them to the way she threatened Fei Fan... Confused, Yeung Yeung wonders how Gau Mui was able to follow up on Lau Sing's story about Macau when it was obviously a lie. Pai Guat says it seemed like they had practiced in advance, like they were on the same wavelength. But Lau Sing explains that is exactly why she is so frightening and why they should stay away from her.

Recap: Episode 5 - Gau Mui and Lau Sing's Chemistry

Sorry about the delay in recaps, guys! Just finished exams so I'm desperately trying to catch up with them asap... because it's approaching the end of the show! :(

I have also been talking to some people who said I should post recaps to the most recent episodes first for those that can't understand Chinese and still want to know what happened in detail during these more suspenseful episodes. If anyone has any comments or suggestions about this, please leave a message!

Long Guan stands on Gau Mui's side and fights against Long Hei. Gau Mui tries to calm him down by assuring him that even without those employees, the world won't stop spinning and Dong Tai won't stop making money from the opium dens. She will take care of it all. Long Hei leaves, utterly furious. Gau Mui knows the business will be affected by Long Hei's little ploy and proceeds to incite a plan of her own. She meets with Fei Fan and explains to him that opium has become hard to find these days. She wants Fei Fan and his policemen to help her find and arrest opium smugglers, then sell it back to her. She will pay him 20% more than the current market price. Also, for every 10 pounds of opium found, she will give $100 bonus to them. Fei Fan happily agrees.

Recap: Episode 4 - Long Hei Dissatisfied With Gau Mui

Note: I have started to keep my screenshots in full HD (1280 x 720 dimensions) so feel free to click on them to enlarge if you want to save any. ^^

Just as Long Guan is about to kill Pai Guat, Gau Mui spots a man with a crooked neck at the back of the room. She stops Long Guan and commands Zhou Tit and Ah Sum to close all the exits of the hall so that no one can enter or leave. She then asks Pai Guat to see if he can recognize anyone he knows in the room. If he can't point out the real killer, then he will have to die. Both Long Guan and Long Hei are confused by Gau Mui's interruption but they let her continue. Pai Guat searches the room with Lau Sing's help... Finally he sees the man with the crooked neck and points him out. The man accused is pointed out to be Siu Git's accountant for many years, Choi Hing. Dai Fung is angered by the ridiculous notion that Choi Hing would kill his own employer. But with no hesitation at all, Choi Hing admits that he is the killer, shocking everyone in the room. He tells Long Guan that he is ready to die for his crime but wanted to let him know that his precious son fully deserved it. Choi Hing recounts the story of his wife's death. She was 2 months pregnant when he brought her to live with him from the rural areas of China. But one day at his office, Siu Git saw her and then sent Choi Hing off on a 3 day business trip. When the trip didn't pan out, Choi Hing returned home and saw that Siu Git had raped his wife during this time. Siu Git threatened him and warned him not to tell anyone. Choi Hing's wife, under great stress and depression, committed suicide soon after. The mood in the room is sombre after the tale and many people, including Gau Mui, have tears in their eyes.

Recap: Episode 3 - Gau Mui Captures Suspected Pai Guat

After Siu Git is shot, Dai Fung arrives on scene and orders his men to chase Pai Guat down. They follow him through a dark forest, shooting at him as he runs. Pai Guat soon loses his footing and rolls down the hill. The entire Cheng family arrives at the hospital in a hurry. Gau Mui asks Dai Fung what happened. He replies that it was the girl's fault. All Siu Git wanted to do was take her for a ride but she denied him that pleasure, then a policeman came and shot Siu Git in the chest. Long Hei threatens to beat her until she tells them where Pai Guat is now hidden. At that time, the doctor informs them that Siu Git's injuries are severe. The bullet punctured his lung and is now lodged in his ribs. But he promises to do his best to save him. The angry Long Guan orders all 3000 of Dong Tai's men to find and bring Pai Guat back to him, dead or alive.

Recap: Episode 2 - Pai Guat Accused

A very Pai Guat-centric episode for all the Pierre fans. ^^ And the second time Lau Sing gets to see what tricks Gau Mui has up her sleeve for the Sheren/Wayne fans!

Even though Fei Fan's arrival and Pai Guat's injury disturbed Lau Sing's plan, with excellent shooting skills and spirit, his team manages to win the battle with the convicts. However, when the police chief visits the station to commend them on their efforts, announcing whoever helped kill the convicts will get a promotion. Fei Fan proudly replies that he was the one responsible for all 6 deaths and receives the $1000 reward. He only condescendingly gives Lau Sing's team $10 to buy dinner for themselves. He takes it grudgingly and rushes off to the locker room where Pai Guat is sitting alone, tending to his wound. Lau Sing blames him for not listening to his orders and ruining the whole operation. He says that in his experience as detective, there is no one as stupid as Pai Guat that could ever be a good policeman. Pai Guat continues to apologize but Lau Sing is too angry to listen to him. Instead he asks Pai Guat to do the team a favor and just quit. The team feels sorry for Pai Guat and asks Lau Sing to give him one more chance. Lau Sing finally becomes soft-hearted and lets him stay. Pai Guat secretly calls his grandmother back home and is discovered by Lau Sing who once again yells at him not to make the team look bad.

Recap: Episode 1 - Lau Sing Meets Gau Mui

Hey everyone! Mandy here. Dreamlucky has graciously allowed me to contribute to this blog by doing recaps for No Regrets. I'm also a huge fan of Sheren and Wayne so hopefully this will help fellow fans and do the show some justice. ^^ Enjoy and feel free to comment on your favorite episodes too!

It's the year 1984. Workers at a building site in Cow Mountain, Guangzhou have discovered many human bones underneath the soil during construction. This captures the attention of the media, who believe it may be the "Pit of Ten Thousand Corpses" where the Japanese army buried many Anti-Jap Chinese citizens. Gau Mui, now a grandmother, arrives at the site with her granddaughter, Yeung Yeung, and Pai Guat to help give information about the war to the Chinese Cultural Preservation Society. At the sight of the pit, tears rise in Gau Mui's eyes and she remembers a scene that happened here in the year 1944... She had asked Lau Sing if he had ever really loved her, being together for so many years. He had said never, that just the smell of opium on her made him sick and the sight of her made him want to vomit. In a fit of rage and heartbreak, she threw her briefcase into the pit. Present day, Gau Mui shows her granddaughter where her "Grandfather Sing" had been kneeling when she shot him. She climbs into the pit herself and is handed the briefcase that the workers found earlier in the day. The love letters she had written Lau Sing are still inside, though she admits that they are fake. The real object of sentimental value to her is an old grenade that she still keeps by her side. It was given to her by Lau Sing for protection. As she is leaving the pit, the reporters ask her if the rumors are true about her being a "King of Opium" or saving a lot of children. Gau Mui doesn't answer, only saying that it doesn't matter what people think of her. Indeed in 1941, she and Lau Sing had put many children onto a train to Hong Kong. When she passes away peacefully in 1994, still clutching the grenade in her hands, many of those children, now grown, come to pay their respects to her and to thank her for saving their lives despite not knowing who she really was or what she really did during the war.
