周家准备为婉君和伯健正式举行婚礼.
伯健十分的高兴。
When Wan Jun was 16 years old,
Zhou family was planning to hold an official wedding for Bo Jian and Wan Jun.

婉君虽然内心真正爱着的是二儿子仲康,
但十分传统的她不想违抗周家为她安排好的命运。
Although Wan Jun was actually in love with the second son Zhong Kang,
as traditional as she was, she decided to accept whatever arrangement Zhou family had planned for her.

当他觉察到婉君对她也很特别的时候,
他就开导婉君说出自己的真心话,
他会为他们共同的幸福去争取。
When he sensed that Wan Jun behaved differently while he was around,
he encouraged Wan Jun to tell him her real feelings (who she really loved),
so he would fight for their happiness.

婉君知道伯健一直深爱着自己,
不想让他们兄弟间因为自己产生矛盾,
始终不愿向仲康表白。
Wan Jun knew Bo Jian was in deep love with her,
she didn’t want to see the brothers fought with each other because of her.
So she kept her real feelings all to herself.

但在家人的逼迫下,
得不到婉君支持的仲康,
勉强同意了。
With the pressure that the family gave him,
without the support from Wan Jun,
he finally agreed to the arrangement reluctantly.

然而,仲康发现他无法接受
与一个不爱的女孩儿结婚的事实。

于是,他当着所有人的面提出退婚。
并且表明他对婉君的心意。

伯健看出婉君真正钟情的并不是自己,
不想再给婉君压力,离家出走。
Bo Jian realized that he was not Wan Jun’s real love.
To reduce the pressure Wan Jun was having, he chose to leave the family.
