Zhong Yelan couldn't understand why, if Zhong Xiwu was concerned about the Meng family amassing power, he wasn't worried that the same might happen to the Zhong family. Zhong Xiwu couldn't help but laugh, explaining that if Zhong Yelan had such thoughts, he could have seized power when he succeeded as the family head. Hearing this response, Zhong Yelan was very satisfied, and the brotherly affection between them remained unchanged. Naturally, Zhong Yelan wouldn't refuse Zhong Xiwu's request.

After Hua Shen's death, the guilt in Hua Qian's heart made her hesitate to visit her mother. However, mother and daughter had no lasting grudges. Taking advantage of the current peace, Hua Qian visited her mother in the courtyard. Mrs. Hua had aged overnight, and she knew that she shouldn't have blamed Hua Qian for Hua Shen's death. Mother and daughter hugged tightly, and tears welled up in their eyes. From then on, Hua Qian always stayed by her parents' side, and the family of three lived harmoniously, enjoying happiness. However, as the banquet at Zhong's Mansion approached, this happiness began to fade.

Fearing her mother might lose control of her emotions, Hua Qian suggested that she stay at home on that day. Hua Wenang wholeheartedly agreed and promised to resign from his managerial position after the banquet. Hua Qian took the opportunity to ask her father if he had any private dealings with Wu Shuomo. Hua Wenang didn't hide anything and admitted that the inferior quality Agarwood Incense he obtained from Wu Shuomo. He also knew that Wu Shuomo had sheltered the fugitive Ge family. Hua Qian was shocked; she recalled that in her previous life, this was not the case. She couldn't help but sneer; her father had kept this matter well-hidden and had held evidence against Wu Shuomo for a long time, preventing him from revealing the truth no matter how arrogant he became.

After learning about everything concerning the Mu family from her father, Hua Qian suddenly felt relieved. She couldn't help but mock herself, as it seemed that after her rebirth, fate had dug such a big pit for her. She then called Hua Rongzhou and urged him to set out the next day to find a place to stay in the southern town. Hua Rongzhou was afraid that Hua Qian wanted to send him away and refused to leave. To make him feel at ease, Hua Qian listed all her promises in detail, ensuring that she would keep them all. At some point, an inexplicable fragrance wafted through the air. Strangely, Hua Rongzhou also smelled it, emanating from Hua Qian herself. However, even though she was close to Hua Qian, Qian Zhi couldn't detect any scent.

On the day of the banquet, Hua Qian called Meng Yifei outside and sent away the female servant who was standing nearby. She no longer wanted to indulge in pretense with her and directly stated that she knew about Meng Yifei's ambitions. Meng Yifei dropped her act as well and openly confronted Hua Qian. However, she was no match for Hua Qian, and no matter how hard she struggled, Hua Qian had the upper hand. Meng Yifei still refused to give in and even mentioned Hua Shen. Hua Qian, who had been plagued by guilt over her brother's death, was no longer concerned about anything. She was infuriated and pushed Meng Yifei into the rocky area. The sharp stones cut Meng Yifei's face, and blood flowed freely.

A guard whispered something into Zhong Xiwu's ear, and his gaze locked directly onto Hua Qian. Hua Qian didn't attempt to hide her feelings and glared back at him. Zhong Xiwu sighed, and then he ordered the guard to leave. Hua Qian gave some instructions to her father and then knelt down in front of the hall, publicly admitting her guilt. She confessed that a year ago, the case of Mu Yunping was orchestrated by the Hua family. Mu Yao quickly got up and suggested that the past was already settled, hinting that Hua Qian should stop bringing it up. However, Hua Wenang suddenly stood up and admitted to orchestrating the case.

Hua Qian couldn't comprehend it and continued to wonder why her father wanted to reveal everything. She only realized the truth when Zhong Xiwu approached and praised her for exposing the Hua family's deception. She then quickly declared that her father and Mu Yunping were close friends, and her father had no knowledge of these events. In reality, it was all because of her jealousy towards Mu Yao and her attraction to Zhong Yelan. After hearing this, Hua Wenang cried out, and then knelt down beside Hua Qian, taking all the blame upon himself. It was then that Hua Qian realized that everything she had done in her second life was observed by her father. Unable to bear the thought of losing another family member, she intended to plead further for her father. However, her father silenced her, and Zhong Xiwu ordered someone to take Hua Wenang away.
