Episode 14 recap: Song Huai Ning returned to the Duan family under the identity of Duan Xunchu Rui.
Lin Wen Yu visited Duan Xunchu Chu with a cake, but she felt too ashamed to enter, and Duan Xunchu Chu inside the house knew she was outside the door but didn't open it. So she left the cake and departed. Duan Xunchu Chu, heartbroken, drowned his sorrows in alcohol. He couldn't accept that the woman he loved was once again separated from him by their identities.
While Wan Zhen was bullying Lin Wen Yu, Song Huai Ning, following Song Zhen Yu's instructions, carried Duan Xunchu Rui's jade pendant and pretended to drop it on purpose, which was discovered by Duan Xunchu Chu. Later, Song Zhen Yu recounted how he had found the injured and unconscious Huai Ning on the street, and the jade pendant was on him. He never expected that Huai Ning would turn out to be Duan Xunchu Chu's son, and back then he didn't recognize Duan Xunchu Rui because he had been severely disfigured and suffered from amnesia, which resulted in the two of them not recognizing each other for many years.
Song Zhen Yuan deliberately said that finding Duan Xunchu Rui now was a way to give an explanation to the elder Duan. However, Duan Xunchu Chu didn't believe Huai Ning. He mentioned that his older brother had a crescent-shaped birthmark on his back. When Huai Ning took off his clothes, indeed, there was a birthmark. Song Huai Ning returned to the Duan family ancestral hall as Duan Xunchu Rui. He felt that it was too coincidental that Duan Xunchu Rui also had a crescent-shaped birthmark. At this moment, his headache and illness recurred, and many hours of memories vaguely flashed before him, but he couldn't make out any faces.
He knelt down and promised his deceased parents that he would take care of his younger brother and seek revenge for them. Lin Wen Yu approached Duan Xunchu Chu's room with the cake, and he also looked at her from inside. The two were separated only by a door, but because Duan Xunchu Rui had returned, they had to keep their distance. Duan Xunchu Chu drank alone, and he cried in sorrow. The Lin Wen Yu he had finally obtained was now handed over to his elder brother.
That night, Duan Xunchu Chu, drunk and asleep, and Song Huai Ning quietly infiltrated his room to search for information about the silver treasury.
