"nahh James Bond film is so unrealistic" Real life spy:

[@JewTube001]

Shi Pei Pu had an insane tuck game. That is for sure.

[@NeverlandSystemAngel]

Seriously, to tuck more than just the nuts... daaaaaaamn...

[@MotherAlsaud]

But also if we want to be real shi would be categorized as a trans women when they first met it was a a man then for 20 plus years she lived her life as a women

[@Garbeaux.]

@@MotherAlsaudnah. Different time, different place. He liked Bernard and obviously thought of the plan on his feet. He hardly lived as a woman if he only dressed as a woman around Bernard. We have got to stop putting modern labels on people from history and different cultures.

[@azzureone78]

Wow that is a wild tale! There are more twists than a soap opera!

[@ellaeadig263]

This was so sad. It started out super romantic and then just became heartbreaking when it all came out that Shi Pei Pu was lying about EVERYTHING.

[@zooropa414]

do you understand the concept of spy?

[@okancanarslan3730]

I think Boursicot was a closeted homosexual in his youth which he couldn't admit to even himself. Thus, having sex with a man who is actually a woman (!) gave his conscious a relief that he was not gay. If he had ever sex with a woman, he would have understand the difference. Having a male partner after return from China proves that. Also, his son was indeed an Uighur, a Turkic ethnic group who has some Caucasoid admixture, to deceive him that the boy was his mixed-race son.

[@Barricade379]

This would be one hell of a movie adaption

[@HWDragonborn]

Exactly, Jeremy Irons and John Lone would be the perfect cast

[@JewTube001]

Would make an even better play. Maybe BD Wong could take the role of Shi Pei Pu...

[@jasperlawrence5361]

No one would believe it. No one.

"... and this is where accounts of the affair begin to get complicated." Canadian understatement on par with English understatement!

[@giovannirastrelli9821]

“The love of a Butterfly can withstand many things-unfaithfulness, loss, even abandonment. But how can it face the one tragedy that implies all others? The devastating knowledge that, underneath it all, the object of her love was nothing more, nothing less than . . . a man.”
