Su Ruofei came out of the room with tears in her eyes. Jin Shangyu, worried about her, had come to look for her. Seeing Su Ruofei crying, Jin Shangyu didn’t ask many questions. Su Ruofei explained that she had come to take care of some matters, which were now finished, and the two left together. Yun Mu watched Su Ruofei leave, feeling unsettled. Xiao Qi, knowing Yun Mu’s feelings, couldn’t understand why he acted this way.

Yun Mu explained that everything he did was for Su Ruofei, but going to the lord without evidence would be futile. After returning, Su Ruofei kept thinking about her past with Yun Mu. She looked at the bell bracelet on her hand, recalling their every interaction and intimate moment. Finally, Su Ruofei made up her mind to cut the bracelet, and the moment it fell to the ground, it seemed to sever her feelings for Yun Mu.

As Yun Mu was looking at the jadeite, Xiao Qi came to report that all the evidence from Lord Huang had been destroyed. Yun Mu planned to send Yun Shang a gift, but whether Yun Shang dared to accept it was another matter. Yun Shang, on his side, constantly had people gather information. He had instructed them to report immediately if any bones were found.

Upon hearing that Yun Mu had arrived, Yun Shang grabbed a sword, ready to fight, but his subordinates held him back, urging him not to act rashly. When Yun Shang saw Yun Mu, he pretended to be concerned about the assassination attempt on Yun Mu. However, Yun Mu presented him with physical evidence and told him that when Lord Huang attempted to assassinate him, he burned himself with a fire pill.

But Yun Shang wasn’t fooled and instead accused Yun Mu of trying to frame him. He threatened to go to the lord for justice. Yun Mu pretended to admit his mistake, ordering his men to throw the bones into a mass grave. Yun Mu ordered the security of his residence to be strengthened and was sure that Yun Shang would act impulsively due to Lord Huang’s death.

He also instructed his subordinates to secretly protect Su Ruofei and report any news immediately. Yun Shang erected a memorial tablet for Lord Huang, but he couldn’t even put a name on it. Filled with guilt and regret, Yun Shang watched helplessly as the bones were sent to the mass grave. Yun Mu confronted Su Ruoshan, straightforwardly telling her that he was taking back half of the jadeite and exposing her for impersonating Su Ruofei.

Su Ruoshan explained that at first, she did it to protect Su Ruofei from trouble, but after meeting Yun Mu, she fell in love with him and continued the impersonation. Yun Mu warned her not to dream of replacing Su Ruofei in his heart. Regarding the incident in the music room, Yun Mu expressed his belief in Su Ruofei and advised Su Ruoshan to behave wisely.

After Yun Mu left, Su Ruoshan was furious and threw her brooch to the ground. Later, Su Ruoshan went to Yun Shang and expressed that she didn’t like the marriage arrangement either. She explained that the lord granted her the marriage because of the rumor that marrying the chief musician was the key to inheriting the lord’s position.

Yun Shang immediately said he would go and explain everything to the lord and revealed that he was the one who had sent people to assassinate Yun Mu. Su Ruoshan persuaded Yun Shang to stop, but Yun Shang believed that since she had built her own empire, if she raised her arm in command, there would naturally be people willing to support her. He viewed Yun Mu as utterly useless.

Su Ruoshan immediately declared that from now on, she would share Yun Shang's fate, for better or worse. This was exactly what Yun Shang wanted to hear, and concerned that Yun Mu might become suspicious, Su Ruoshan even offered Yun Shang some strategic advice. It had been three days since Su Ruofei left, and Yun Mu hadn’t slept at all during this time.

Xiao Qi urged Yun Mu to rest, reminding him that Su Ruofei would be heartbroken if she knew he wasn’t taking care of himself. Last time, she had rushed back upon hearing he was attacked. Xiao Qi added that when Yun Mu saw her again, he couldn’t let Su Ruofei see him looking so exhausted. Yun Mu seemed to find hope in this, believing that he might see Su Ruofei again.

When Yun Shang paid his respects to Lord Huang, he confided his thoughts. He admitted that he knew Su Ruoshan had been using him all along, but he couldn’t help his feelings for her. For the sake of Lord Huang and Su Ruoshan, he vowed to no longer act recklessly and to secure the lord’s position. He then sent a letter to Yun Yao, asking her to deliver it to Yun Xi’s maid.

When Su Ruofei returned home, her parents were overjoyed. They understood why Su Ruoshan hadn’t returned, as she was busy, and they were proud of her achievements. Upon learning that Jin Shangyu was the same Jin Shangyu from Su Ruofei's childhood, her mother was even happier. Jin Shangyu had visited often as a child and could eat a whole basket of steamed buns every time.

Su Ruofei took Jin Shangyu and Huang Ying to her Lu Guang Music House, and everyone was delighted to see Jin Shangyu. Huang Ying introduced herself as Jin Shangyu’s fiancée and announced that she would be joining the music house as well. Everyone welcomed her warmly. Every time Yun Mu received news about Su Ruofei, he was thrilled and wished he could urge his secret guards to gather information faster.

He looked at the jadeite, thinking about the little wildcat far away and wondering what she was doing at that moment. Su Ruofei sat on the second floor of Lu Guang Music House, playing the familiar melody, as tears once again rolled down her cheeks.
