The Inextricable Destiny Episode 13 Recap
> The Inextricable Destiny Recap
Jiuling came to pay her respects to her father and brother, standing alone in the desolate wilderness outside with several mounds of yellow earth. It looked quite desolate. Jiuling lit three sticks of incense and knelt deeply in front of her father and brother's graves. At this moment, her helplessness and sorrow were beyond anyone's understanding.
Rong Yu, accompanied by Zhan Ping, prepared to return to the Rong estate after paying his respects. He was worried about what gift he should give Jiuling for her birthday. Zhan Ping suggested that he should pick something from the gift storeroom when he returns.
While driving, Zhan Ping accidentally bumped into an elderly person while trying to avoid a stray cat. He quickly got out of the car to check if the elderly person was hurt. The cat jumped onto the car. Rong Yu saw the cat and liked it, so he walked ahead with the cat. When he saw the lively scene at the gambling house, he followed along.
Rong Yu joined in the betting with others, and he ended up losing all the money in his pocket. When the others saw the Nine Dragon Jade Pendant he was holding, they used it for betting as well. Rong Yu tried to take it back, but the people at the gambling house insisted, forcing him to bet with it. Suddenly, Rong Yu had a brilliant idea. He quickly calculated in his mind and guessed the outcome of the dice, winning every round.
The owner of the gambling house accused Rong Yu of cheating, and the crowd condemned the owner for falsely accusing Rong Yu. However, it turned out that the owner was indeed cheating, and Rong Yu exposed the truth. The crowd confronted the owner, and a fight broke out.
With the help of a gambling buddy, Rong Yu collected his winnings in a basket and happily walked down the street. Ahead of Rong Yu, the owner of the gambling house had sent some thugs to follow him, prepared to rob him at any moment.
Rong Yu suddenly remembered the cat he had picked up, so he stopped and opened the basket. He found a lot of gold and silver, but he didn't recognize the paper money. He set the money by the roadside, leaving those following him confused. Rong Yu had stirred up quite a commotion, and it was clear that he was not an ordinary person. However, the temptation of the money was too great for them to resist, and they started fighting over the paper money.
Zhan Ping couldn't find Rong Yu, so he went back and informed Jiuling. Jiuling rushed out on horseback to search for Rong Yu. When she saw Rong Yu walking alone on the street, she quickly approached him and brought him onto her horse.
Back at the estate, Rong Jiong was looking for Jiuling's Nine Dragon Jade Pendant. He asked Rong Yu if he had seen it, and Rong Yu said he hadn't. Zhan Ping saw the gold and silver in Rong Yu's basket and asked where he got it from. Rong Yu gestured, but Zhan Ping couldn't understand his meaning.
Jiuling came to the outer room with a blanket, and Rong Yu thought he had done something to upset her. He was anxious to do something for Jiuling to ease his mind. Jiuling was practicing calligraphy when she suddenly heard that Rong Yu had fallen into the lake. She rushed out to check, wiped the water off Rong Yu, and had Zhan Ping prepare a sweat-inducing herbal soup.
At that moment, a servant came to Jiuling, saying that Rong Daren had called her to the ancestral hall. Rong Jiong was wiping the tablet of Rong Shan, Rong Yu's father. He told Jiuling the story of their Rong family. Their parents had passed away early, and Rong Shan had lovingly raised Rong Jiong. However, Rong Shan also died young, so Rong Jiong had raised Rong Yu as his own son for twenty years. He wouldn't allow anyone to harm Rong Yu, but since Rong Yu had met Jiuling, he had been injured several times.
Rong Jiong questioned Jiuling whether Rong Yu had turned out like this due to the medicine she had given him. Jiuling, with a heavy heart, knelt before Rong Shan's tablet and nodded in acknowledgment. Rong Jiong expressed his anger, saying that if she hadn't confessed, he would have killed her. However, even if she confessed, she would still be punished for what happened to Rong Yu.
Rong Jiong used a ruler to beat Jiuling severely, and the stewards, hearing the cries, felt distressed. Meanwhile, Rong Yu was still waiting for Jiuling to return for dinner. Zhan Ping tried to persuade him that, at this point, he should have dinner with Rong Daren. At this moment, it began to snow heavily, and Rong Yu felt joyful. He had jumped into the lake to catch a Koi fish, which was said to bring good luck, as a surprise for Jiuling. Now that it was snowing, he had another idea to make Jiuling happy. So, he went out with Zhan Ping.
Jiuling, covered in injuries, thought about applying some golden medicine, but she sighed and said to herself, "This is not the He family. What am I thinking?" She entered a daze and fell asleep, dreaming about playing with her brother Qiuting and the brutal scene of him being killed by pursuers.
Jiuling was awakened by the sounds outside and went outside to see Rong Yu and Zhan Ping building snowmen and making many small rabbits out of snow. Jiuling watched with a mixture of emotions in her heart.
