To Get Her Episode 5 Recap
> To Get Her Recap
After Tu Siyi played his qin for three hours, Lin Zhen'er, feeling bored, suggested they go out for a walk. She explained that as a couple, they should be "dating," which involved enjoying beautiful scenery and listening to music outside the mansion. Initially hesitant due to the light rain and her supposed pregnancy, Tu Siyi eventually agreed.
As they rode through picturesque landscapes, Tu Siyi confessed that he had always yearned for such a life, filled with leisure and an appreciation for nature, music, and poetry. However, the former Lin Zhen'er had constantly urged him to focus on seizing the throne, making such simple pleasures impossible.
Lin Zhen'er then asked if he believed she had changed, to which Tu Siyi replied that ever since his fall from the horse, he felt a strange familiarity with her, yet also noticed she was different from before. To enhance their "date," Lin Zhen'er took out her phone, which she described as a "magic instrument" that could produce "heavenly sounds." Tu Siyi was enchanted by the music. He then asked what other activities "dating" entailed.
Lin Zhen'er instructed him to close his eyes and then kissed him. Startled, Tu Siyi exclaimed, "How shameless! What are you doing?" He found it dirty and sudden, though he admitted to a "little electric shock." When Lin Zhen'er offered to "return" the kiss if he disliked it, Tu Siyi closed his eyes, prompting her to kiss him again.
This intimate moment triggered a nostalgic flashback for Lin Zhen'er, recalling her first kiss with the real Tu Siyi—a moment he promised to remember forever. Overcome with emotion, she teared up, which Tu Siyi misinterpreted as her being deeply moved by his "perfection." The next morning, Tu Siyi discovered his sister, Tu Siya, diligently practicing martial arts. He playfully tried to startle her but accidentally got injured.
Tu Siya explained her fierce dedication was to exact revenge on Cui Xun, who had swindled her. Tu Siyi, reassuring her not to blame herself for being "stupid," promised to help her retrieve her money. He then chided Shen Daifu for not intervening to prevent his injury, to which Shen Daifu replied that he needed to practice his bandaging skills for the sake of "all living beings."
Later, Tu Siyi and Shen Daifu found Cui Xun in a teahouse, employing the same scam to deceive Murong Qianyue with a qin. Introducing himself as Tu Yisi, Tu Siyi feigned interest in buying the qin, outbidding Murong Qianyue. He then revealed his true identity and exposed Cui Xun's trickery, mentioning his sister Tu Siya, whom Cui Xun had also defrauded. Shen Daifu then blocked Cui Xun's acupoints, rendering him unable to use martial arts.
Cui Xun, cornered, claimed he had an elderly mother at home who needed to be settled before he could go to the yamen. Skeptical but believing Cui Xun was incapacitated, Tu Siyi and the others followed him. Cui Xun led them to a dilapidated "Wushu Hall" filled with seemingly ill, elderly, and orphaned villagers. He spun a tale of being an orphan himself, raised by these people, and claimed he resorted to fraud to support his "family."
Murong Qianyue and Tu Siyi were touched by his story, especially when he lamented that his impending arrest would leave these vulnerable people uncared for. Believing they had misjudged him, Tu Siyi handed Cui Xun 200 taels of silver, urging him to use it for the Wushu Hall and to stop his fraudulent ways.
However, just as they were about to leave, Cui Xun's actual household servants arrived, addressing him as "Young Master" and revealing that his "Master" was looking for him. The entire "refugee camp" scattered, confirming it was an elaborate hoax. Cui Xun seized the moment to escape, leaving Tu Siyi frustrated and out of pocket by a significant sum. That evening, as Tu Siyi and Murong Qianyue were saying their goodbyes, a group of men appeared, searching for Murong Qianyue.
She pleaded with Tu Siyi for help. Tu Siyi, with Shen Daifu's assistance, helped her hide, creating a diversion for her pursuers. Witnessing Tu Siyi's chivalry, Murong Qianyue felt a growing admiration for him. Meanwhile, Shen Daifu was also captivated by Murong Qianyue's beauty. Back at the mansion, Lin Zhen'er and Tu Siya were astonished and dismayed to learn that Tu Siyi had lost 200 taels to another scam.
Tu Siyi, embarrassed, gave a vague explanation, claiming it was for the common people. Lin Zhen'er, hoping this marked a new resolve in him to pursue the throne, was disheartened to find only music-related books on his desk. Tu Siyi, perhaps sensing her unspoken disappointment, stated he preferred to study music in his "spare time" and reminded her of her promise to support his preferences.
Realizing his innocence and the depth of his passion, Lin Zhen'er couldn't bring herself to scold him. She was left feeling helpless, pondering how she could reconcile his passion for music with the necessity of him ascending the throne.
