> Resumos de Your Sensibility My Destiny
Mo Qingchen reflected on how governing a state requires meticulous preparation, similar to how he meticulously planned to bring happiness to Lin Chi, shielding her from troubles and ensuring her future stability. He believed she would accept his efforts. Meanwhile, at Wu Mo Manor, red silks and lanterns adorned the grounds for a joyous occasion. Ling Hua, aware of Mo Qingchen's plans, urged him to inform Lin Chi, who remained oblivious to the impending surprise.
Mo Qingchen intended to tell her that night. However, news quickly arrived that Her Majesty had suddenly arrived at the manor, furious after seeing the wedding decorations, and was now waiting in the main hall. Mo Qingchen greeted Her Majesty, who sternly questioned him about his actions. He bravely declared his intention to marry Lin Chi and be with her forever. The Queen, enraged, criticized him for hiding his marriage from the court and the Emperor.
She accused Lin Chi of being a mere "wild woman" he had captured, easily discarded like a doll, and questioned how he could possibly fall in love with her. Mo Qingchen firmly refuted, stating that Lin Chi was not a doll but the woman he intended to marry. Her Majesty further disparaged Lin Chi as a "swindler" and a "lowly woman," ordering Mo Qingchen to marry his cousin, Xiao Ke Ying, instead.
She vehemently refused to accept Lin Chi as even a concubine, threatening the lives of Lin Chi's master and apprentices if Mo Qingchen defied her. She continued to hurl insults, questioning Lin Chi's family background and character, even implying she was promiscuous. Overhearing these humiliating words, Lin Chi burst into the hall. She asserted that despite her parents’ early passing, they had instilled in her strong moral values.
She declared that her personal affairs were her own business and that she would not marry Mo Qingchen. She then assured Her Majesty that she would leave him. Mo Qingchen pursued Lin Chi, demanding to know where she was going and trying to stop her. Lin Chi, hurt and angry that everyone, including her master outside the manor, knew about the wedding plans except her, confronted him.
She sarcastically asked how she, a "shameless swindler," could ever be worthy of a prince. Mo Qingchen tried to explain that he intended to tell her that night and that preparing for their marriage, given their mutual affection, was not wrong. Lin Chi argued that marriage involves more than just two people's feelings and that his royal identity would always keep them apart. She refused to be commanded by him, stating she had never sought to climb the social ladder.
Mo Qingchen insisted he only wanted to protect her. Lin Chi countered that if she stayed, she would be making an enemy of the entire Nanlu and risking the lives of her master and apprentices, who would be eliminated like weeds. With a final gesture, Lin Chi tore their agreement, declaring that from now on, they were quits.
Despite Mo Qingchen's desperate pleas, Lin Chi maintained that she did not deserve him and that he could not defy the entire noble society of Nanlu, unlike herself. She demanded he release her and left the manor, with Ling Hua unable to persuade her to stay. Mo Qingchen, disheartened, told his subordinates not to pursue her. Later, in a fit of despair, Mo Qingchen struck a lantern, and to his surprise, felt a sharp pain.
He realized that he had regained his sensory perception, a sensation he had long lost. However, this newfound ability brought him no joy without Lin Chi by his side. Ling Hua, observing his melancholic state, remarked that Lin Chi's anger was understandable after Her Majesty's cruel words. Lin Chi returned to Prince Jing's residence, where her master and Qiu Wan were overjoyed but surprised to see her.
She tearfully recounted her painful experience, admitting that while she was initially happy about the sudden marriage proposal, the Queen's harsh words had brought her back to reality. She declared that she would never return to Wu Mo Manor. Qiu Wan, heartbroken for her junior, comforted her. Meanwhile, Ji Dingyue's subordinate reported that Lin Chi had left Wu Mo Manor seemingly in anger. Ji Dingyue ordered his men to follow her and gather information, hoping to exploit the situation.
At Prince Jing's residence, Zhuang Chen expressed his outrage over Lin Chi's plight, condemning Mo Qingchen as a "heartless man," the Queen as an "unpredictable old witch," and Xiao Ke Ying as a "vicious distant cousin." Ji Dingluan tried to defend his brother, stating that Mo Qingchen wouldn't intentionally harm Lin Chi, and that the Queen's emphasis on family background was understandable.
Zhuang Chen, however, saw Ji Dingluan's unspoken affection for Qiu Wan and warned him that he and Qiu Wan would eventually face similar societal pressures as royal descendants. He also urged Ji Dingluan to keep a close eye on Qiu Wan, predicting she would seek retribution for Lin Chi. While trying to bathe, Lin Chi noticed something was wrong—she couldn't feel the coldness of the water, even when Qiu Wan pointed it out.
Later, when offered medicine and honey water, she realized she couldn't taste either. She also discovered that she no longer felt pain from her earlier injury. Testing her senses further by touching a hot stove, she felt no heat. A chilling realization dawned upon her: she and Mo Qingchen had swapped their sensory perceptions. However, she kept this discovery to herself, not wanting to worry Qiu Wan, who believed Lin Chi was merely heartbroken.
Determined to avenge Lin Chi, Qiu Wan retrieved a sword from Ji Dingluan's residence, despite his protests and warnings that she was no match for Mo Qingchen. He tried to stop her, even embracing her, but she insisted on going, forcing Ji Dingluan to follow. Upon reaching Wu Mo Manor, Qiu Wan confronted Mo Qingchen, berating him as a "heartless" and "ungrateful" man.
She revealed that Lin Chi was now unable to feel cold or warmth, and that all food tasted bland to her. Mo Qingchen was visibly stunned by this revelation, realizing that his own senses had returned while Lin Chi's had vanished. Qiu Wan, enraged, attacked him with the sword. Mo Qingchen, still recovering and perhaps distracted by the news, was wounded on the shoulder, much to Qiu Wan's satisfaction, though Ji Dingluan tried to downplay his brother's pain.
Ji Dingluan then quickly pulled Qiu Wan away, promising to visit another day. Later, Du Ruo visited Lin Chi, bringing her food and sharing good news about her younger sister, who was being well-cared for by an adoptive family without other children. Du Ruo implicitly expressed his deep and unwavering support for Lin Chi, recalling childhood memories and his constant presence by her side.
Her master also visited, bringing her favorite roasted sweet potatoes, comforting her, and promising to always be there for her, even saying he'd saved enough for her dowry and would care for her if no one else did. That night, Lin Chi, unable to sleep, found herself thinking of Mo Qingchen, remembering their past intimacy and wondering if he was coping with their separation. The next morning, Lin Chi asked Qiu Wan about her outing with Ji Dingluan.
Qiu Wan gleefully recounted how she had confronted and wounded Mo Qingchen, detailing how he had visibly flinched in pain when she mentioned Lin Chi's loss of sensation. Hearing this, Lin Chi's earlier suspicions were confirmed: they had indeed swapped their senses. Driven by this realization, Lin Chi immediately rushed to Wu Mo Manor. Unbeknownst to her, Ji Dingyue's men were still trailing her.
Mo Qingchen, who was on his way to Prince Jing's residence to find Lin Chi, intercepted the followers and confronted them, but he too had lost some of his former martial prowess.
