Episode 4 recap: Ghost possession leads to suspicion of assault.
Three people drove to the company building of Jiang Xiao Chuan. The four characters "Chu Chen Live" were very eye-catching, making Nan Hua suddenly feel familiar. Jiang Xiao Chuan used to be a late-night emotional column anchor, but later switched to live selling at Chu Chen Company. Although the radio has become a side job, she reminded Nan Hua that she could consult her anytime if she had emotional troubles.
Later, Jin Xia accompanied Nan Hua to go fishing by the seaside and shared their respective lives with each other. Nan Hua had been waiting for a thousand years, trapped in the ancient Taiping mansion due to the exhaustion of spiritual power. Even if her memories disappeared, she remembered to wait for someone. This made Jin Xia once again moved and admired his commitment to promises. Because of this, Jin Xia thought of her past being abandoned by her parents, which inevitably brought some sadness.
In the eyes of outsiders, Jin Xia buying a house was for retirement, but in reality, it was for her own dignity. For a period of time, Jin Xia lived by renting a house, and after deducting rent and expenses, her life was naturally more tight. The landlady aunt arranged blind dates for Jin Xia and wanted to introduce her to the son of her old friend.
Under the dominance of the landlady, Jin Xia had to reluctantly agree to meet, but unexpectedly, the blind date turned out to be her cheating ex-boyfriend, and his mother was even more sarcastic and picky about the woman's income and family situation, demanding that she must have a son immediately after marriage, as if there was a throne in the family that needed to be inherited. The ex-boyfriend didn't think cheating was wrong at all and even explained the cheating behavior as a temporary act.
Jin Xia didn't want to discuss their relationship, and her attitude caused dissatisfaction from her ex-boyfriend, who started to humiliate her by saying that her family conditions were poor and her interpersonal skills were bad, and that buying a house on her own was simply a fantasy. Jin Xia looked at her ex-boyfriend, who pretended to offer so-called life advice but was actually showing off the superiority of being dependent on his parents. His words made her feel extremely disgusted, so she bluntly counterattacked and, before leaving, ordered a few expensive drinks at the front desk and made him pay the bill.
After learning about this, the landlady called Jin Xia and angrily raised the rent by 500. Jin Xia realized that she should buy a house as soon as possible, firstly to escape the oppression of the unscrupulous landlady and secondly to have a sense of belonging for herself.
After hearing Jin Xia's ordeal, Nan Hua's heart was filled with mixed emotions. Ever since experiencing the shadows of her parents and her previous relationship, Jin Xia had become pessimistic about marriage and didn't believe that she would have the possibility of having children.
Nan Hua comforted Jin Xia not to give up, assuring her that someone would surely understand and cherish her, as she was such a kind and wonderful person. After finishing fishing, the two returned to Taiping and discovered that the son of the fortune teller had come with his accomplices to seek revenge. Initially, Nan Hua was going to step forward and teach them a lesson, but Jin Xia felt that it would be better to avoid unnecessary trouble and chose to negotiate with them herself.
Little did they know that the fortune teller's son was a complete thug, not only smashing Jin Xia's phone but also attempting to do something inappropriate to her. At a critical moment, Nan Hua possessed Jin Xia and took control of her consciousness, brutally beating up the fortune teller's son and his accomplices. The three grown men were no match for them. Terrified, the fortune teller quickly begged for mercy and fled with his son in a panic. This scene happened to be witnessed by Ding Yan Hai.
Previously, the fortune teller thought that Jin Xia was playing tricks and causing trouble, but now he felt that this old mansion was simply unclean, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy. Ding Yan Hai approached the fortune teller, showing his police badge, and asked them about the situation. Ding Yan Hai had witnessed Jin Xia talking to the empty air and went to the fortune teller with suspicions to gather information.
At the beginning of their cohabitation, Jin Xia, who was still adjusting to the situation, worried that Nan Hua might use her ability to go through walls or peep while she was bathing, so she kept talking to Nan Hua non-stop. In order to make Jin Xia feel more secure, Nan Hua agreed to cook in the kitchen while humming songs for her.
Indeed, Jin Xia felt somewhat reassured. She lay in the bathtub and gradually fell asleep, unexpectedly dreaming of herself and Nan Hua acting out an indescribable scene in the bathroom.
