After resting for several days, Hua Qian's health improved significantly, so she hurriedly went to pay her respects to the Grand Princess at the Zhong residence. As she was leaving, Hua Rongzhou intercepted her and took out a bracelet from his pocket. This bracelet was personally crafted by Hua Rongzhou, appearing as a regular one from the outside, but it concealed a hidden mechanism. Hua Qian played with this magical bracelet, her face showing a satisfied smile.

As soon as she entered the Zhong residence, Hua Qian came face to face with Zhong Xiwu. Zhong Xiwu had intended to apologize to Hua Qian, promising not to make hasty judgments about her in the future. However, for some reason, the words that came out changed their tone, infuriating Hua Qian. The Grand Princess greeted Hua Qian warmly, holding her hand and sharing many personal words. As the evening drew near, Hua Qian got up to take her leave. Seeing Hua Qian leaving, Zhong Xiwu also hastily excused himself and followed her.

Hua Qian was unwilling to engage with him and walked quickly. Zhong Xiwu had no choice but to step in front of Hua Qian. Hua Qian was so angry she almost exploded, fiercely pushing away Zhong Xiwu's hand, accusing him of overstepping. Zhong Xiwu realized that he had indeed lost his temper and quickly ordered his servants to stand aside. He wanted to apologize for his earlier thoughtless words, but Hua Qian was unwilling to listen to his explanations. She was even afraid to be around him and knelt down, begging him to maintain his dignity. Seeing Hua Qian like this, Zhong Xiwu's eyes filled with disappointment, and he left dejectedly.

Learning that Hua Qian had voluntarily asked for separation, naturally, her parents wanted to bring her home and find out the truth. Hua Qian knew that this day would come sooner or later and calmly returned home. Hearing the confirmation from Hua Qian's own mouth, Hua Wenang felt a bit annoyed and scolded her for her unreasonable behavior. Hua Qian's mother intervened, speaking softly and trying to persuade Hua Qian to reconsider. Only Hua Shen stood up in support of Hua Qian's decision.

At this point, Hua Qian no longer concealed her thoughts and directly stated her intentions. She explained that she had never completely understood her father's thoughts but could only guess that he wanted to keep his position as the Head of the Hua family. In his eyes, she was only valuable as the wife of the Zhong family. Hearing this, Hua Wenang couldn't help but laugh. After all, it was Hua Qian herself who had desperately wanted to marry into the Zhong family. Hua Qian openly admitted that it was her own desire to marry into the Zhong residence, and she had even pretended to be Zhong Yelan's love interest and plotted against him with the drugging incident. However, her father always turned a blind eye to her mistakes and never considered right from wrong. Thinking about this, Hua Qian couldn't help but smirk. Perhaps her father had never really cared about her and only cared about securing his position as the head of the family.

Hua Wenang was infuriated and blamed Hua Qian for not understanding him. If it weren't for her single-minded pursuit of becoming the Head of the Hua family, Hua Qian wouldn't be where she was today. Hua Qian also stood up, speaking frankly about her desire for a peaceful family. If her father was truly concerned about the Hua family, then she would resign. Their family could open a small perfume shop and lead a peaceful, worry-free life. Hua Wenang would not accept Hua Qian's words. In his view, only power could protect the Hua family.

Realizing she couldn't persuade her father, Hua Qian laid down the ultimatum and warned that if her father remained obstinate, disaster would soon befall the Hua family. Hua Wenang was so angry he slapped Hua Qian across the face, angrily driving her out of the house. Hua Shen went after her, urging Hua Qian to apologize to her father. Hua Qian spoke to Hua Shen, pleading for her freedom as an ordinary person. However, for Hua Shen, he had grown accustomed to the life of luxury and extravagance and was used to Hua Wenang's protection. How could he willingly become an ordinary person? Hua Qian suddenly realized something and withdrew her hand. She looked at the Hua family's door and let out a bitter laugh.

Three days later, the Fragrance Appreciation Banquet was scheduled, and supervisors from various regions, long-time medicinal herb suppliers like the Wu family, and others were to arrive at the Zhong residence. It was during this event that Hua Qian finally saw Wu Shuomo again.
