In this episode, the reborn Su Xin attempts to win over the future powerful official Wei Congjie in advance through a "ruse of self-inflicted injury." Su Xin feigns an injury on Wei Congjie's usual route back to his room, intending to gain his sympathy and secure their cooperation. However, Wei Congjie immediately sees through her clumsy act. At this moment, her nemesis Consort Xian (Zhou Runyun) suddenly appears, accusing them of meeting in secret. Faced with Consort Xian's accusations, Wei Congjie uses patrolling the grounds as an excuse to deflect. Consort Xian, coveting Su Xin's beauty, wishes to take her under her wing. To avoid Wei Congjie's severe punishment and to opportunistically remain by Consort Xian's side, Su Xin unexpectedly agrees to follow her, leaving Wei Congjie feeling that the trajectory of fate in this life remains beyond his control.
