"Come on," says the kidnapper. "she's worth thousands, I tell ya. A beauty! You just need to shower her!"
Although strangled on the deck, she nods a lot of times, affirming that she's a pretty lady.
"I don't believe in your eyes," says the captain. "You might as well wash your eyes to see clearly the difference between a beauty and a beast."
"O' Great Captain Zheng, come on, just give me something!" he begs.
"I said no! Get out of my ship or I'll feed you to the lions below deck!"
"Ugh...," the kidnapper groans. "all of that for nothing."
He begins to untie Liangyu. Once she's got the tie off of her mouth, she roars, "WHAT WERE YOU PLANNING TO DO TO ME?!!!" hitting her kidnapper in the face.
It didn't do anything much to him nor did he show any emotion. "Were you deaf?" he answers. "I was about to sell you. It turns out you're worth nothing."
"Hey, I'm Qin Liangyu! The daughter of Qin Kui! I am a valuable woman and you will pay for what you've done to me!"
"Chin ling hong kong kwayla—whatever," he mocks rolling his eyes. "It wasn't even a big deal."
"Kidnapping a lady and attempting to sell her to a brothel isn't a big deal for you?!!"
"Yup," he answers, leaving the ship. She follows behind him.
"Are you an idiot?!!! Oh, why did I ask that? You 'are' an idio—"
He puts his dirty finger on her lips and she's gagged right away. "I'm not 'Idiot'. I'm Lapulapu."
"No, you're an idiot."
He mocks her with a ridiculous face and she mocks back.
"Gosh," he says in disgust. "stop. You're gonna make people disgusted at you. You're supposed to be the jewel of this town, right? The townsfolk must have low standards for beauty."
She grits her teeth at him as he walks away. He boards a small boat that has small roofing and a few cargoes on board.
"There she is!" a man exclaims behind her.
She turns her head around and finds out that it's her future husband and his servants. He's running like a jelly on a walking waiter's plate.
"Miss Qin!" he yells, panting so hard although his running is just another man's walking speed.
"I'm outta here," says Lapulapu, unfurling the sails.
As the boat leaves the port, he whistles a tune until he got interrupted by the sudden rocking.
"What the hell?!" he exclaims, looking back. Liangyu is at the back of the boat, panting and hiding. "What are you doing here?! Get off my ship!"
"First of all, this is not a ship!" she shouts. "This is just a stinky useless boat!"
"Boarding my bo—" he stops when she smirks at him as he almost said it. "Boarding my ship... without asking? Who do you think you are?!"
"Take me with you!"
"Nope, can't do that! A fatty woman like you will slow me down. Better go back to your future hubby right there." He nods at her fat suitor on the port, calling for her.
"Hey, that's the worst thing you could say to a woman!"
"Telling a woman to go back to her hubby is a bad thing to say? You really aren't right in the head!"
"You're the one to talk," she sighs as he makes a circling motion with his finger in the air beside his head.
"Now, get out of here or I will throw you out!"
"I will offer you anything, just get me out of here!"
He raises one eyebrow, asking, "And that would be?"
"The greatest treasure that a woman can give a man."
She looks firm, directly into his eyes. That is how he knows that she is serious.
"Well, you better hold onto that!" he points.
"I hold onto my words even if I'm a woman."
"That's what I want to hear." He half-smiles.
Three boats are on them. They are much larger, well-made, and have a lot of sails compared to his.
"Hey," she says anxiously, watching them catching up. "can this boat go any faster?"
"What do you mean? We are already at top speed."
"You're kidding me!" she panics. "How stupid am I to trust you?!"
"I'd say you're wiser than Confusion. You know, that Chinese wise man."
"The name's, Confucius, you scoundrel!!" She breaks down, lying on the deck. "I'm dead! If Father finds out that I was willing to run away, he'll disown me! I will really gonna be sold to a brothel!"
"Not today, my lady!" he says, picking up a grass cutter.
"What is that?" she asks.
"What?" he asks, turning around to look in the direction of the nose of the boat but there's nothing there.
"The thing you're holding, you crackhead!"
"Oh, this is a thing I just found. It does wonders in boosting the speed of my boat."
"Well, get on with it! They're catching up!"
He starts the engine of the grass cutter and the blades start to spin. Walking over her, he gets to the back of the boat and submerged the blades into the water.
"Buckle up because here it goes!"
