But Lu Anran fighting against the river bandits, and Mu Chuan was also worried that she would be retaliated by the river bandits. In the past five years, Mu Chuan has built the River Transportation Department and used the power of the imperial court to help the Lu family remove obstacles, and Lu Anran has also placed the imperial granary on each Lujia port. The two clearly have each other in their hearts, but they have never faced each other within these five years. But Mu Chuan was very satisfied to see Lu Anran traveled thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and to appreciate the scenery of various places for herself and been free.

The past between them is too sad, and Dongqing decides to join forces with Shen Changqing to push the two lovers to face each other. Mu Chuan received Shen Changqing's wedding invitation and looked forward to meeting Lu Anran. Lu Anran returned to the Hanjing Lu Mansion, seeing the grape vines in the courtyard covered with her favorite green grapes, watching Mu Chuan taking care of the grape vines with great care, hearing that Mu Chuan missed her and rejected the marriage arranged by the king and queen. He has resist the decree and confer marriage and was saving himself for Lu Anran. Lu Anran thanked Mu Chuan for his perseverance, giving her the only joy in the world to be free.
Lu Anran came to Mu Ze's tomb to pay homage with the yellow mums. Mu Chuan came a step later and saw the bouquet and guessed that Lu Anran had been there. On the day of Shen Changqing's wedding, the mansion was decorated with lanterns to celebrate this wedding. Lu Anran also came to Shen Changqing's mansion to congratulate him and continued sisterhood with Dongqing.
Mu Chuan also came to Shen's house and was helping Shen Changqing to organize the wedding outfits. Shen Changqing persuaded Mu Chuan to seize today's opportunity, hoping that he could renew his relationship with Lu Anran. Shanyue came to report that Lu Anran was kidnapped by the river bandits in the Shen residence. Mu Chuan and Shen Changqing came to support her, but Mu Chuan was captured by the river bandits instead. There he met Lu Anran. The two did not know that they were set up by Shen Changqing and Dongqing's, which was to allow the two to let go of their past and continue their relationship.
It took Lu Anran 5 years to realize that she would have regrets in any choice she made. Now she has no regrets. Seeing that Mu Chuan has maintained the juvenile demeanor that he had when they first met for the first time. There are lots of opportunities for the prince to be with others, but he is willing to accompany her to watch the rain in the forest instead. Lu Anran is very content, and she does not want to miss the opportunity to be in a relationship with Mu Chuan again. Mu Chuan only wish that the two of them would spend the rest of their lives together and live up to their fleeting years.
