Episode 16 recap: Lin Yumeng and Ji Lingsu consummated their marriage.
Lin Yumeng pretended to be drunk and entered the room, heading towards the direction of the Jade Qilin. However, her drunken act was stopped by the nanny, and Ji Ying and Tang Ruoyun, who were awakened by the commotion, came downstairs. They blamed Ji Lingsu for not properly taking care of his wife. Ji Lingsu, feeling suffocated for days, said that she could relax. At that moment, Lin Yumeng intentionally threw herself at Ji Ying, indicating that she wanted to drink. Ji Ying, angered by this, loudly reprimanded the bodyguards, while Tang Ruoyun, wanting Lin Yumeng to make a fool of herself, deliberately walked over and sarcastically taunted her. Lin Yumeng seized this opportunity to ask the waitress to bring her alcohol. Tang Ruoyun, annoyed, pushed Lin Yumeng, who then accidentally broke the Jade Qilin.
Ji Ying watched as the Jade Qilin shattered, suppressing his anger and cursing everyone away. Lin Yumeng bumped into the table and got injured. Ji Lingsu asked her to take off her shirt so he could apply medicine to her. Lin Yumeng initially wanted to find a doctor, but when she learned that it would result in the male doctor being fired due to Ji Lingsu's blackmail, she reluctantly let Ji Lingsu personally apply the medicine. Ji Lingsu looked at the injury on her back and blamed her for being foolish, saying that there was no need to bump into the table, as breaking the Jade Qilin was enough.
Ji Lingsu wasn't as happy as he had imagined. The Jade Qilin was the first fortune his mother earned and bought, but his father was having an affair with Tang Ruoyun at the time and was unworthy of possessing his mother's heirloom. Ji Lingsu kissed Lin Yumeng's shoulder with a heart full of pain, and Lin Yumeng quietly turned her head. Finally, the two of them consummated their marriage.
