Jie Li was enthusiastic about having fun and quickly found the most entertaining place in the city—Feixian Pavilion. Coincidentally, Xie Wanqing was performing a dance there today. However, entering Feixian Pavilion came with many conditions. Dongfang Qingcang, being the Moon Supreme, was naturally generous with his money. He spent a hefty sum and finally gained entry. Inside the bustling Feixian Pavilion, Orchid thought she saw Lord Changheng and suspected he was undergoing his tribulation in the mortal world.

She felt it was bad news—if Dongfang Qingcang discovered him, Lord Changheng would be in grave danger. Thinking of this, Orchid hurriedly blocked Dongfang Qingcang and invited him to sit and watch the performance. Fortunately, he agreed. A while later, the dancer Xie Wanqing took the stage and slowly opened her fan. The audience watched with rapt attention, completely immersed in the beauty of her dance.

Xie Wanqing held a butterfly in her hand and, after a few turns, let it go. The butterfly didn’t leave but instead danced gracefully around her. Orchid accidentally noticed a mark of karmic fire on the back of Xie Wanqing’s neck. She began to suspect that Xie Wanqing was the Chidi Woman. She glanced at Dongfang Qingcang beside her and realized he had known all along. But Orchid still didn’t know what Dongfang Qingcang planned to do.

What she was sure of was that no matter what he did, she would stop him. And the first thing she would do was to protect the Chidi Woman. Thinking this, she secretly touched her hair to check if the Hidden Heart Hairpin was still there. Unexpectedly, Dongfang Qingcang noticed, though fortunately, he didn’t pursue the matter. From others’ conversations, Orchid finally learned that Lord Changheng had become a dissolute young master named Xiao Run in the mortal world.

After Xie Wanqing’s performance, this young master lavishly spent money, drawing everyone’s attention. Worried that Dongfang Qingcang would notice him, Orchid lied and claimed she had lost her bone orchid. Sensing her odd behavior, Dongfang Qingcang grabbed her arm and questioned her. Flustered, Orchid still insisted she was just keeping him company. In Xie Wanqing’s boudoir, Xiao Run brought up their childhood engagement.

But now, as both a courtesan and the daughter of a traitor, Xie Wanqing no longer wished to mention the past and dismissed him with a cup of tea. The red coral Xiao Run gave her had been stolen from his home. When his father found out, he gave him a severe beating. Still, Xiao Run didn’t admit he was wrong and even felt that marrying Xie Wanqing was for the good of the Xiao family.

Enraged, his father chased him down personally. Outside Feixian Pavilion, Orchid couldn’t help but complain about how tired she was. Without thinking, Dongfang Qingcang offered to carry her on his back. Orchid quickly refused. She told Dongfang Qingcang that on the day he attacked Shuiyuntian, they would be enemies. Hearing this, Dongfang Qingcang felt choked up. Lately, he had been restless. But facing Orchid, he simply couldn’t get angry; instead, he hoped she would lose her temper at him.

However, Orchid seemed to have changed—she was no longer so chatty and no longer willing to stay by his side. The Lantern Festival was approaching. Though the sun had long since set, the streets were brightly lit and bustling. Jie Li cheerfully dragged Shang Que away, leaving Orchid and Dongfang Qingcang alone in silence. Orchid hoped to learn the truth from Dongfang Qingcang, but even after asking several times, he never gave her a straight answer.

Dongfang Qingcang happened to see a wooden ball and was reminded of his father. Just as he fell into memories, Orchid suddenly disappeared. At that moment, Xiao Run had lost everything at the gambling house and even had to pawn his jade. Still, he lost. Taking advantage of a moment of distraction, he snatched the jade and ran. Xie Wanqing sat idly by, weighed down by her thoughts.

In this life, she had experienced much, but always felt something was missing. Just then, a distant flute melody drifted over. In that instant, she suddenly understood—that was what she had been waiting for. But what she didn’t know was that the one playing the flute was her disciple, Rong Hao.
