THE SWORDMATES
燕
娘
Yàn niáng
Danger befalls a security bureau entrusted with a jade statue that conceals proof of a conspiracy.
When the qīnggōng is flat and there is no ignition
in the chemistry between Chin Ping and Chung Hua,
there is nothing to do but gawk like a hawk
at the pulchritude of yàn niáng Chin Ping.
The inn scene is an echo of Cheng Pei Pei's in Come Drink with Me and The Jade Raksha.
