Some people in this world share a bed but not a heart yet play the part in public

Some treat each other with respect, yet remain worlds apart

Some weather the storms together, yet still lose to time

Some have run their course, yet are bound together all the same

Episode 22, Madame Wei replies to Fan Ya Ke with these words:

"Friendships vary in depth. There are drinking companions, strategic allies, and life-or-death bonds. Tell me, Young Madam Yu, which kind do you want to be?

For now, it may be a fair contest, but in the end, your husband might just be the winner."
