> Resúmenes de Fate Chooses You
Chu Ying is curious about the history between Li Niang and Lu Qianqiao. Li Niang jokingly asks for twenty gold taels for the story, but eventually shares it for free since the inn is quiet. She recalls meeting Lu Qianqiao eleven years ago when he was a neighbor and a gifted painter. During their first encounter, she had fallen and dirtied her prettiest dress, but Lu Qianqiao showed no disdain and kindly escorted her home.
Seeing how thin he was—rarely eating even once in two days—she often brought him food. Over time, however, his lack of response caused her romantic feelings to fade. The turning point came with the imposition of the "Immortality Tax," a burden created by those in power seeking eternal life.
Li Niang’s father, who ran an escort agency, planned to move the family back to their hometown to escape the exorbitant fees, but the corrupt local magistrate sent men disguised as bandits to slaughter them. Lu Qianqiao appeared and killed the attackers in a single move, saving her. It was then she realized he was no ordinary mortal.
After he disappeared, Li Niang took her young attendant and her horse trainer to a secluded valley to train in martial arts for five years. Once they had their revenge, they opened the Safe Haven Inn, where she eventually crossed paths with him again. At the inn, Li Niang observes Lu Qianqiao’s intense concern for the injured Xin Mei, noting a tenderness and heartache in his eyes she has never seen before.
Chu Ying suggests they are likely in love, though it seems destined to end without a result. Meanwhile, the political landscape shifts as the Emperor orders the Liang family’s assets seized and their clan punished following Liang Wenjing’s death. Jiang Ji and the other cultivators are informed that Xin Mei had been acting on behalf of the Imperial Court, and that the immortal sects are no longer required to intervene.
This revelation leaves Jiang Ji fuming, as the court had been the one to plead for their help initially. When Xin Mei finally regains consciousness, she is outraged to find that Lu Qianqiao is alive. In her anger, she attempts to attack him, forcing Lu Qianqiao to restrain her. He tries to explain that while he has secrets concerning his very life that he cannot disclose, he never intended to hurt her.
Despite his explanation, Xin Mei feels betrayed that he allowed her to risk her life for revenge while he was perfectly safe, questioning if he had simply been toying with her feelings. Elsewhere, Bai Zongying of the Tianyuan Sect arrives to consult with the other cultivators. Since the Imperial Court is no longer pursuing the matter, he advises against further conflict.
He dismisses Xin Mei, who has recently advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage, as a non-threat but warns that Lu Qianqiao is dangerously powerful. Jin Lun shares his own observation, noting that Lu Qianqiao was wounded by Jiang Ji’s Chengying Sword but healed instantly. This leads him to suspect that Lu Qianqiao is actually a War Demon. After a period of intense grief, Xin Mei decides to forgive Lu Qianqiao for his deception but insists they part ways permanently.
Sensing her deep sorrow and the "lack of color" in her world, Lu Qianqiao decides it is best for her to forget him entirely. He instructs Chu Ying to use magic to erase Xin Mei’s memories of their time together, hoping she can return to her life as if "Lu Huai" never existed. Meanwhile, A Sheng arrives in the capital searching for her sister, but she is unable to find any trace of Xin Mei's whereabouts.
When Xin Mei eventually wakes up, she has no memory of Lu Qianqiao or even Meishan Jun. Li Niang tells her a fabricated story about finding her unconscious in the rain after her aunt's funeral. Xin Mei is surprised to find she has advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage despite being ill. Determined to help her master, she prepares to travel to Chongling Valley to seek an Immortality Pill.
As she sets out, Meishan Jun follows her, but she treats him as a stranger. Her journey is soon compromised when she encounters a man under the influence of He Huabu’s magic. Unaware of the danger, Xin Mei is struck by a subtle spell, leaving her under the influence of the Yan Sui Shu technique.
