Episode 5 recap: The maid said that Fang Lian was killed by Mr. Jiang.
The Fang family was hosting a tea tasting banquet, and Shen Xiuning and Jiang Li attended together. During the banquet, Jiang Li showed off her skills by making various types of milk tea, impressing everyone present. The young miss of the Jiang family felt extremely annoyed seeing Jiang Li stealing the limelight. Taking advantage of the lively atmosphere, Shen Xiuning discreetly winked at Li Canglang, who pretended to excuse himself to the restroom and left the gathering.
Li Canglang went to the backyard of the Fang residence and saw the maid, Qiuniang, burning incense paper. Upon hearing that she was doing it for Fang Lian, Li Canglang revealed his identity and asked her what had happened. The maid then told Li Canglang that Fang Lian was killed by Mr. Jiang. Twenty years ago, when Fang Lian was out, she was abducted by bandits. Because she was defiled by the bandits and her body was considered dirty, Mr. Jiang withdrew his marriage proposal.
Later, Fang Lian became pregnant, expecting twins. However, one of the babies turned out to be a monster. When Jiang Li served tea to Fang Runsheng, she noticed that his wound had not healed yet. She used alcohol to clean the wound and bandaged it for him. Fang Runsheng was moved by Jiang Li's beauty and virtuousness. As he bid farewell to Jiang Li, he heard a man's voice in his mind asking if he liked Jiang Li and offering to help him if he did. However, Fang Runsheng was worried that the person speaking would frighten Jiang Li, so he asked him not to interfere in the matter.
