Scent of Time (2023) Episode 15

Oct 26, 2023

Hua Qian woke up with a hangover and suddenly forgot what happened last night. Qian Zhi recalled it for her and bluntly said that she had scolded many people last night under the influence of alcohol. Hua Qian had a headache and hurriedly called Hua Rongzhou to ask about the situation. But strangely, Hua Rongzhou's face was wrapped tightly, which made Hua Qian have to suspect that he had beaten him while unconscious last night. After getting a positive answer from Qian Zhi, Hua Qian blamed herself very much and hurriedly stood up to check Hua Rongzhou's injuries, but he seemed to be very resistant. Since the parties involved said everything was fine, Hua Qian naturally did not go into details further.

Later, Hua Qian returned to her parents' home and said frankly that she had a way to rescue Hua Shen. But before coming up with a solution, Hua Qian first gave his father a scare. She got straight to the point and asked her father if he knew how much sin the Hua family was burdened with. Hearing this, Hua Wenang couldn't help but sneer, saying frankly that if he hadn't worked hard step by step to reach his current position, how could the Hua family be as prosperous as it is today. Hua Qian didn't flinch at all, exposing his father's so-called glory and wealth as nothing more than short-sighted ideals.

After coming out of his father's place, Hua Qian planned to go back to Zhongzhai directly, but was stopped by his mother. Hua Qian felt soft for a moment and followed her mother back to her room. Her mother prepared snacks for her, which made Hua Qian feel a lot of family affection that she had never felt before. But she knew that her mother was doing this just to save her precious son. Hua Qian told her mother that she would not sit idly by and watch her brother's matter.

Seeing Hua Qian's reaction, Hua's mother couldn't help but sigh and told the story of her parents. At that time, her mother was also the eldest lady her father was marrying in a large sedan chair, but even though she had the reputation of being a legitimate descendant, her life was not as good as that of a concubine. The reason for this is because her mother only gave birth to one daughter in her life. In the father's eyes, his daughter will get married sooner or later and be someone else's daughter. And the mother has no children in her life and can only suffer from anger all her life. So Hua's mother didn't want to live like that anymore, and Hua Shen was her pillar of support. Hua Qian couldn't fully agree with her mother's views, but she understood her mother's difficulties. She promised her mother that she would get her brother out safely.

After an unknown amount of time, Hua Wenang finally sent Hua Qian a list. Hua Qian quickly ordered Hua Rongzhou to redeem all the people on the list with money. Hua Rongzhou acted decisively and quickly got back the deeds of betrayal from those people. Later, while Hua Qian asked Qian Zhi to send the He Li Shu to Zhong Yelan for him, he went to find Mu Yao with the deeds of betrayal.

Muyao's courtyard has long been tightly guarded by people arranged by Zhong Yelan, so it is naturally difficult for Hua Qian to enter. But the situation was urgent, and Hua Qian could only ask Hua Rongzhou to help him climb over the wall. And because Hua Rongzhou accompanied him, Hua Qian was able to meet Mu Yao smoothly. As soon as they met, Hua Qian threw the prostitution contracts to Mu Yao and said frankly that he wanted to make a deal with her. She told Mu Yao that she had more in her hands, so Hua Shen would naturally have to bear the blame, but what he had not done should not be forced on him. In order to stop Mu Yao from causing trouble for him, Hua Qian kindly reminded her that Zhong Yelan had actually known about her plan for a long time, but he had shelved the matter just because he cared about her.

After leaving Muyao's courtyard, Hua Qian turned around and went to find Zhong Yelan. She glanced at the Heli book that had been crushed and then unfolded again. She didn't want to get entangled anymore and just asked Zhong Yelan to sign quickly. But Zhong Yelan was furious and blamed Hua Qian for always only thinking about herself when doing things. Then, he completely tore up Heli Shu and left angrily.
