Episode 16 recap: Mutual affection sealed with a kiss.
Lin Wanqing felt guilty for causing harm to Su Moyi and regretted accompanying him to Hongzhou, exposing him to danger. Su Moyi told Lin Wanqing that from the beginning to the end, his heart only had room for her. Although he brought her to Hongzhou for official business, it was also his personal desire. Lin Wanqing was confused by Su Moyi's words and questioned whether he knew who he was now.
Su Moyi expressed that every moment he spent with Lin Wanqing was the real Su Moyi, and his love for her was genuine. Upon hearing Su Moyi's words, Lin Wanqing felt extremely happy. Su Moyi took this opportunity to passionately kiss Lin Wanqing, confirming their romantic relationship. Ye Qing was worried about Su Moyi's injury and wanted to visit him, but Lai Luo prevented him from leaving the room.
Ye Qing attempted to escape but was discovered by Lai Luo. Lai Luo noticed Ye Qing's injured hand during his fight with the assassins at the gathering. Concerned about Ye Qing's injury, Lai Luo immediately took him to tend to his wounds. Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Qing asked Lai Luo to accept the bracelet he had bought. Lai Luo silently accepted the bracelet. Liang Weiping, who had been silent all along, couldn't bear it any longer and blamed them for completely ignoring him, only focused on their own affections.
Su Moyi's condition improved, and he and Lin Wanqing resumed their affectionate interactions. Lin Wanqing reminded Su Moyi to take care of his wounds, but Su Moyi insisted that it was part of their act, meant to be seen by the people at the entrance. Zhang Ren, worried that he had misjudged Su Moyi due to his lack of martial arts skills, feared that Su Moyi would hold a grudge and report the incident to King Liang. He couldn't explain the situation to King Liang, so he had to apologize to Su Moyi.
Zhang Ren claimed that the assassination attempt at the gathering was the work of a local power in Hongzhou and assured Su Moyi that they could go see the sample ore, asking him not to take it to heart. Su Moyi pretended to blame him briefly and then stated that King Liang's affairs were more important. He immediately set off to inspect the situation at the sample ore. Lin Wanqing, worried about Su Moyi, followed him when he left, hoping to go together, but Su Moyi refused.
