Episode 14 recap: Zhong Xi Wu arranged to meet Hua Qian at the Star Tower.
Hua Qian's parents were still questioning the situation with her older brother. Hua Qian could always smell a fragrance in the air, but she ignored everyone's words. It seemed that this incident had greatly affected Hua Qian, and no one knew what to do. On the other hand, the Hua family was also very anxious because Hua Shen was still in prison, and they didn't know how he would be dealt with.
Hua Qian's father told her mother that perhaps Hua Qian had other plans, and for now, it would be best not to act recklessly. Zhong Xi Wu informed the eldest princess about Zhong Ye Lan taking a concubine that day and also told her about Hua Shen's situation. The eldest princess had initially wanted to console Hua Qian, but she felt that Hua Qian had no intention of coming over.
Qian Zhi hoped every day that Hua Qian would go out and take a walk, but she stayed in the courtyard and refused to go anywhere. Seeing Hua Qian becoming more and more depressed, everyone was extremely worried. Mu Yao had been secretly monitoring Hua Qian, hoping to catch her off guard.
Hua Qian accidentally fell asleep and nearly bumped into a stool, but Hua Rong Zhou managed to stop her in time. Hua Qian woke up and asked about Hua Rong Zhou's situation. Just then, Zhong Ye Lan approached, but Hua Qian told him not to come see her. She even said that he could take her brother's life, and she didn't care at all. Then she returned to her room.
Cui Zhu took the initiative to apologize to Hua Qian, but she didn't pay much attention. When Hua Qian returned, she saw the jewelry her brother had given her and was still worried about Hua Shen. Hua Qian continued to manage the store's accounts, keeping herself busy every day. On the other hand, upon learning that Hua Qian had gone out, Zhong Xi Wu felt happy and quickly finished his tasks, hoping to meet Hua Qian as soon as possible.
After finishing her work, Hua Qian invited Qian Zhi and Hua Rong Zhou to have a meal together, and she enjoyed the food.
At this moment, a runner recognized Hua Rong Zhou, who mentioned that he had also stayed here before becoming a guard.
Afterward, Hua Qian took Hua Rong Zhou and Qian Zhi out for a stroll. They almost got hit by a car, but Hua Rong Zhou managed to stop it in time. At that moment, Hua Qian saw Zhong Xi Wu, who said he wanted to take her to a special place.
Zhong Xi Wu brought Hua Qian to the Star Tower, and they prepared to climb up together. When Hua Qian learned that they had to climb the stairs, she didn't want to go up, but Zhong Xi Wu insisted and forcefully brought her up. The climb was exhausting, and Hua Qian was panting behind. The maidservants and guards followed behind as well, but in the end, only Zhong Xi Wu and Hua Qian remained together.
Hua Qian was very tired as she climbed up, but when she saw the beautiful scenery in front of her, she couldn't help but smile. From there, she could see the panoramic view of the city, which made Hua Qian very happy. Hua Qian also asked Zhong Xi Wu why he was so good to her, and he replied that they were allies. However, when Hua Qian wanted to look ahead, Zhong Xi Wu thought she wanted to do something reckless and stopped her.
Hua Qian thought that Zhong Xi Wu liked Mu Yao and that their so-called alliance was for the same purpose as Wu Shuo Mo. But Hua Qian didn't know that the person Zhong Xi Wu cared about was actually herself. Zhong Xi Wu gave Hua Qian the strongest and most fragrant wine. Before Zhong Xi Wu could bring a cup, Hua Qian drank a lot of it. Because of Zhong Xi Wu's words, she immediately came up with a solution and quickly prepared to leave. She left Zhong Xi Wu before embarrassing herself further.
Seeing Zhong Xi Wu chasing after her, Hua Qian had already been carried away by Hua Rong Zhou, and she accidentally dropped her shawl. After returning, Zhong Xi Wu continued to handle official affairs. The next day, when Hua Qian woke up with a splitting headache, Qian Zhi felt that she had gone through too much. Hua Qian had cursed at many people while drunk, but luckily, not many knew about it. Hua Qian felt somewhat relieved.
