These Violent Delights

Lady Cai and Juliette discuss the state of the madness while Lady Cai brushes Juliette’s hair. Juliette’s mother says that she is also worried that Lord Cai will be usurped by someone in the Scarlet Gang. This has happened before, but Lord Cai was able to overcome his challengers by having more support from rank-and-file gang members.

After Lady Cai leaves her daughter’s room, Juliette hears knocking on the balcony doors and finds Roma outside. This reminds Juliette of sneaking around with him when they were dating. Roma asks for Juliette’s help with saving his sister. Juliette reluctantly agrees and tells him she is planning on visiting Zhang Gutai’s house. She tells him to come with her, and they plan to meet each other by a statue of a weeping woman, where they used to meet secretly during their relationship.

The next morning, Juliette and Roma meet at the statue. They go to Zhang Gutai’s personal address, which Kathleen learned from a spy. The Communist Leader lives in a run-down apartment building. At his house, they are greeted by Qi Ren, Zhang Gutai’s personal assistant. Juliette pretends that they are students from the university, switching into a different dialect to confuse the man and conceal her identity.
