The Magic Pen Episode 9 Recap
> The Magic Pen Recap
Lady Wen looked at the paintings sent from various places and expressed that they were not top-notch. She didn't accept just any paintings and turned to Tong Zifu, asking if she had any paintings. Tong Zifu took out her painting and handed it to Lady Wen, who immediately showed delight upon seeing it. Tong Zifu took this opportunity to raise the stakes and claimed that she obtained this painting from a master. Since she believed it was destined to be with Lady Wen, any price would be acceptable.
Wen Master scolded Wen Jingzhan for hiding from home and not attending classes, instead going to catch bandits. Wen Jingzhan defended himself, stating that as long as he could become a painter, it didn't matter whether he attended classes or not. He hoped his father would keep his promise and agree to let him join the military.
Wen Master had taken a second wife, hoping for peace in the household, while Wen Jingzhan's aspiration was to seek justice and help those in need. Tong Zifu's painting was appreciated by the second wife, who rewarded her with fifty taels as painting fees. Wen Jingzhan witnessed this scene and confirmed that she was a spy for Wen Master. He decided to drive her away, but he knew there would be other spies even if she left. So, he resolved to persuade Tong Zifu to change sides.
Wen Jingzhan specially bought various brushes and inkstones for Tong Zifu, trying to be attentive without any specific reason. Tong Zifu questioned his actions, and Wen Jingzhan defended her in front of other fellow students, saying that new students deserved special care. Later, he went to her room, slowly approached her, and pinned her against the wall, gently assuring her that he would always treat her well.
