A Familiar Stranger Episode 4

Tests and treats

I am watching on Viki with 8 rather than 18 episodes. There will be spoilers if watching the 18 episode version.

Yuan Bao gets candied Hawthorne from face swapper because there is a red tie attached. Shi Qi gets the candies and swaps them. She meets and tells her she knows what the prince had but that since the matter did not concern her (Shen Qin), that she would handle getting the item to the prince. She meets with her friend who saw her go with the prince. She lists off every injury her friend received and convinced her she was her painter friend in spite of her face. She gets a note of when to meet the prince and takes the pendant with her. Prior, the military advisor left it as a test under the guise of looking for a slingshot for Yuan Bao. When it is gone he tells the general that no matter what his heart is saying, the pendant is gone. Whe Shi Qi meets with the prince he is surprised at what the item turned out to be and mocks the sentimentality of it. She she tries to get information from him, he becomes physical. She is not the one he thinks so he can’t make out why she is reacting this way. She tells him no and then gets the hairpin out. First she breaks pearl jewelry in him and then holds it to her own throat. He is still relentless in his pursuit til a general’s knife discourages him. 😝🥳 The general makes it very clear that Prince or no Prince he better not touch his wife again. When they get back, she surprises him with two things, a divorce contract and the pendant. She said she gave them a copy of it and this was the original and that she would go where she should go after they divorced. He tries to get out of her the second thing she is hiding but she still refuses. He also refuses to divorce her. He tears up the divorce papers and is gleeful she is who his heart says she is.😂 she catches him with paper confetti all around looking happy. She gets her hairpin and leaves while he feels he lost cool points getting caught.😂🤣 The next day he gets more candied hawthorns to watch his two girls enjoying a snack. The military advisor mocks him, but even he is changing his mind about the woman who is married to the general. The episode ends with him smiling from the sidelines at them. I am still enjoying everything, the story, the pace and the music.
