Episode 8 recap: The ancient mansion collapsed.
When Grandma saw this courtyard, she felt that it couldn't have been renovated in a short time. Nan Hua must have been living here for a long time. Nan Hua said there were things he couldn't explain, and Grandma said she understood. She admitted that there were many things about the younger generation that she didn't understand. Grandma said she had to go back because she had many things to take care of there, and she asked Jin Xia to live a good life at home.
Nan Hua asked if Grandma wanted him to tell Jin Xia something, but Grandma felt it wasn't necessary. Jin Xia called Grandma and asked why she didn't stay for a few more days. Grandma said she just came to see her and she was also busy. She mentioned that she had to make TikTok videos with her sisters. Today there is a meteor shower, which Nan Hua and the Crown Prince had talked about before. Nan Hua said that every meteor shower signifies an ancient being falling, and these ancient beings possessed spiritual power that could affect the heavens and the earth, hence the meteor shower when they fall.
The Crown Prince said he wanted to take back his wish and hoped he wouldn't see the meteor shower. Ding Yan Hai came to find Nan Hua again, and Jin Xia could only say that Nan Hua hadn't returned yet, so she invited Ding Yan Hai in for tea. Nan Hua became invisible and asked Jin Xia what was going on. Jin Xia explained that it was a strategy called "lure the enemy with a bait."
Ding Yan Hai talked to Jin Xia about Nan Hua, thinking that Nan Hua was strange and had many unexplained aspects. Jin Xia thought Ding Yan Hai was overthinking things. There were two cats circling around Nan Hua, which seemed strange to Ding Yan Hai. Jin Xia quickly lured the cats away. Jin Xia was originally going to leave but accidentally slipped and fell. Nan Hua hurriedly helped her up. However, this also appeared strange to Ding Yan Hai. Jin Xia quickly pulled Nan Hua down, and as a result, the two of them shared a kiss.
Nan Hua was very excited, and the electrical circuits in the area became unstable. Ding Yan Hai quickly helped Jin Xia up and asked if she was okay. Jin Xia said she was fine.
Nan Hua stood there in a daze. Jin Xia quickly asked Ding Yan Hai to go back first, saying that Nan Hua had returned and she would definitely tell him.
When Jin Xia and Ding Yan Hai went outside, they happened to see a meteor shower happening, and they also saw Nan Hua flying up and blocking the meteorite. Nan Hua landed, and both Ding Yan Hai and Jin Xia were shocked. Jin Xia asked Nan Hua how he was, and Nan Hua said he was fine. He mentioned that his spiritual power was now abundant and he wouldn't faint easily like before.
Ding Yan Hai was also very excited, saying that he had been searching for Nan Hua for so long and finally saw him again. He was extremely happy. Jin Xia asked if Nan Hua didn't want Ding Yan Hai to come in, and Nan Hua said it wasn't necessary. Ding Yan Hai was a descendant of the Taiping Clan, and Nan Hua had promised to protect his descendants. Ding Yan Hai had saved Nan Hua several times when they were younger, but Nan Hua had only promised to protect him without mentioning further contact.
The house on this side collapsed, likely due to the aged and unrepaired walls unable to withstand the aftermath of the meteor shower. However, the foundation was still intact, so it could be repaired. Ding Yan Hai's mother also arrived and asked what happened. Ding Yan Hai quickly came up with an idea, saying that a meteor had fallen and accidentally caused the house to be in this state.
Ding Yan Hai's mother asked where the meteor had fallen, and Ding Yan Hai randomly pointed to a stone in the courtyard. The village officials said that although it fell on their property, it was also the village's asset. They wanted to take it back and keep it for collection, as scientists might come to study it.
Jin Xia could only agree. They couldn't stay in the current room anymore, so Nan Hua suggested they stay in the guest room together, and he would sleep on the floor. Jin Xia felt it wasn't necessary for Nan Hua to sleep on the floor, but Nan Hua insisted it was fine. Nan Hua watched Jin Xia as she fell asleep.
