Episode 20 recap: Mr. Nie, the old man, was brutally murdered.
Murong Hanbing told Meikai Shao that he had found the guard who had managed to escape before, and also identified the appearance of the assassin who had attacked him. The assassin had a scar on his face and was not tall. Meikai Shao suddenly remembered that the person seemed familiar, which made her somewhat worried. However, as long as Murong Hanbing was by her side, Meikai Shao felt safe. When Meikai Shao went to see the divine doctor, he happened to be idle and dozing off, teasingly mocked by Meikai Shao. The divine doctor examined Meikai Shao's pulse and felt that her body was already in good health at the moment, which relieved Meikai Shao. Although her health had improved, there had been frequent accidents lately, and she had started to suspect Meixuan.
The divine doctor was uncertain whether Meixuan had harmed Meikai Shao, but he was certain that Meixuan was not a good person. He suspected that Meixuan had tampered with Meikai Shao's health when she was deteriorating. Meita Yan had mentioned that there were people practicing martial arts in the family, which could explain the situation, but she never directly revealed the reason. Afterward, Meita Yan dared not speak anymore and became silent. At this moment, Meikai Shao suddenly felt that the divine doctor, Mr. Nie, resembled her father.
Mr. Nie felt pleased, as these words would never have been spoken by the previous Meikai Shao. Meikai Shao suddenly saw the scar-faced person and hurriedly chased after him. However, just as she stepped out of the medicine shop, she heard Mr. Nie's screams coming from inside. Meikai Shao hurriedly rushed back and discovered Mr. Nie lying dead in a pool of blood. Overwhelmed with grief, Meikai Shao burst into tears, and Murong Hanbing arrived to console her.
Meikai Shao was deeply saddened by this event and woke up from her dream in tears. She suspected that Meixuan was behind all these incidents. Murong Hanbing handed her the book left by Mr. Nie, which contained some of his daily records. Meikai Shao felt joyous upon reading what Mr. Nie had written about her today.
