After leaving the shop, the two stumble upon a fortune-telling stall and, on a whim, draw a fortune. The results are unexpectedly harmonious, seemingly foreshadowing a bright future for them. Million is particularly delighted because the imagery in the fortune aligns with her beloved fireflies. She immediately shares this good luck with Qu Zheng, whose thoughts drift back to the warm moments they’ve shared together.
Meanwhile, Jing Yuan is recovering but urgently needs Snow Lotus. Qing Yun wants to visit her father but is denied entry, except for the Snow Moon envoy. The envoy reports that Snow Lotus is safe and reveals that she will be retrieved during the grand wedding. Even more surprising, the palace master has ordered the Snow Moon envoy to represent Qing Yun in congratulating them in Taoyuan Valley, raising Qing Yun's suspicions about the envoy's ulterior motives.
However, Qing Yun's greatest concern is for his childhood companion, A Chu. Unfortunately, due to an eye condition, he has never seen her face.
As Million and Qu Zheng's relationship deepens, Qu Zheng takes her to see fireflies, hoping she will call him "Ah Zheng." Although Million initially feels awkward, her heart is filled with sweetness.
At the same time, Jin Mu Qiu struggles with the frequent poetry exchanges initiated by Lin Feng, resorting to secretly consulting books to keep up, while Lin Feng remains oblivious, viewing Jin Mu Qiu as a kindred spirit.
After a long journey, Million and Qu Zheng finally arrive in Taoyuan Town. As they enter, Jian Yun gets into a dispute with Su Zhuo Zhuo over peach blossom pastries. Su Zhuo Zhuo, already harboring resentment toward Million, becomes furious upon learning about her engagement to Qu Zheng. Attempting to pry information from Jian Yun proves unsuccessful, leading her to confront Million directly. This confrontation causes Million to doubt herself, feeling unworthy of Qu Zheng, prompting her to leave the next day without a word.
Wandering aimlessly, Million comes across a notice for kitchen help in Taoyuan Valley and hatches a plan. When Qu Zheng visits Taoyuan Valley, Million sneaks in as a kitchen helper, believing she’s disguised perfectly, unaware that Qu Zheng has already seen through her act. During this time, Qu Zheng also encounters Zi Jing, who awkwardly tries to hide Jian Yun's injuries.
Coincidentally, Qing Yun also disguises himself and becomes a kitchen helper, creating a sense of familiarity for Million, though she cannot recall why.
This series of coincidences and twists fills the story with uncertainty and anticipation, as the secrets of Taoyuan Valley, along with the relationships between Million and Qu Zheng, and Qing Yun and A Chu, slowly begin to unfold.
