Episode 6 recap: Lu Qing'er kidnaps Bao Rourou.

Lu Qing'er captures Yi Qifeng and expresses that she initially intended to kidnap Gu Xinghe but ended up capturing Yi Qifeng instead. Lu Qing'er asks Yi Qifeng who he really is and why he was in Gu Xinghe's room. Lu Qing'er slaps Yi Qifeng a few times and believes that Gu Xinghe has feelings for her. Yi Qifeng straightforwardly claims to be Gu Xinghe's lover and mentions that Gu Xinghe won't live much longer, questioning why someone is rushing to become a widow.

Lu Qing'er remembers that Bao Rourou is also present. Bao Rourou is a woman brought back by Gu Xinghe, and Lu Qing'er comes to find her. Bao Rourou mistakenly believes that Lu Qing'er saved her and becomes very close to her. Lu Qing'er doesn't think highly of Bao Rourou and fails to understand why Gu Xinghe would like her. Bao Rourou explains that she came to find someone because a merchant ship arrived in the South Sea, and the merfolk saved her father, who was subsequently kidnapped by someone.

Lu Qing'er sees this as an opportunity to get rid of Bao Rourou, suggesting that her father must have gone to Shengjing and asks her to go there to find him. Bao Rourou wants Gu Xinghe to accompany her, but Lu Qing'er believes that Bao Rourou doesn't understand proper speech and wants to teach her a lesson. Gu Xinghe intervenes and stops Lu Qing'er, revealing that he has a marriage contract with Bao Rourou. He asks Lu Qing'er when he ever said he liked her, expressing his lack of affection for her.
