Echo of Her Voice Episode 5 Recap
> Echo of Her Voice Recap
Su Ruoshan played the harp in front of Lady Yaoshan, who looked on with admiration. This was the same piece that Lady Yaoshan's mother used to play, and she loved it. Upon hearing that Su Ruoshan was the girl from the forest all those years ago, Lady Yaoshan became even more fond of her, believing their meeting was fated. She even gifted Su Ruoshan a jade pendant, thanking her for saving her son back then.
These words made Su Ruoshan nervous, as she was unaware of some of the details from that time. Yun Mu arranged a luxurious residence for Su Ruoshan, and she was surprised by how useful the identity of the "Jade Girl" had become. Looking at her own jade pendant, Su Ruoshan felt compelled to continue using this identity. She hoped to gain the title of grand musician, even if it meant betraying her sister.
As Yun Mu stepped out, he ran into Yun Shang, who had brought gifts and clothing. Yun Mu could see that his uncle was serious this time. Jin Shangyu arrived at Huanyue Pavilion, where he was admired by everyone. Men chased after him, asking about his music, while women were captivated by his talent. Su Ruofei, however, snuck into Yun Mu's room alone and discovered it was full of mirrors. She laughed at how narcissistic Yun Mu seemed.
Just then, Yun Mu and Xiao Qi arrived. Xiao Qi warned Su Ruofei that entering Yun Mu's study without permission was a capital offense. Xiao Qi solemnly placed the jade pendant on the table, but Yun Mu pulled Su Ruofei away before noticing it. Yun Mu told Su Ruofei to choose fabrics for her clothes, his real motive being to please his eyes. He also demanded that Su Ruofei memorize all the musical scores.
Xiao Qi led Su Ruofei to a room and told her she could stay there. Looking around at the beautifully furnished room, Su Ruofei couldn’t resist the urge to lie down and rest. To her surprise, this was Yun Mu’s room. Yun Mu reminded her that she wasn’t allowed to sleep in his bed, only on the small one behind the screen.
In the courtyard, Jin Shangyu played his flute, his mind filled with memories of meeting Su Ruofei as a child. Just then, Huang Ying suddenly appeared, startling Jin Shangyu, who quickly hid. Huang Ying, unable to find anyone, left. Jin Shangyu worried that his peaceful days were over. Yun Mu noticed that Su Ruofei was too nervous to sleep and kept sitting up.
To resolve this, he tied their wrists together with a silk ribbon, so if Yun Mu moved, Su Ruofei would notice and could relax. However, Su Ruofei kept tossing and turning, causing the bell on her wrist to ring throughout the night. The next day, Su Ruofei’s new clothes were ready. Seeing her in the new outfit, Yun Mu thought she looked stunning and asked her to create a different kind of music using the handbell.
Yun Mu also sent Su Ruoshan some herbs and clothes, explaining that the climate here was different from their hometown, and she could take the herbs if she felt unwell. Su Ruoshan keenly realized that Yun Mu's kindness was entirely due to her identity as the "Jade Girl" from back then. Jin Shangyu, having just avoided Huang Ying, now had to evade the group of admirers chasing after him, leaving him exhausted.
He confided his frustrations to Yun Mu, who agreed to let him stay in his residence. Su Ruofei was forced to practice with the handbell every day, but she often pretended to have a stomachache to escape to the bathroom. One day, while lazily hiding in a tree, she ran into Jin Shangyu again. He gave her a gift, hoping she would still see him as the Jin Shangyu from their childhood.
However, Su Ruofei struggled to connect the man before her with the boy from her past. Just as Jin Shangyu was about to explain, Su Ruofei heard someone calling her name, and in a panic, she ran away.
