Episode 24 recap: Ding Liu and Gao Shen steal the Yellow Goat Head.
Chang Dong believes that Zhao Guan Shou must have deceived Ye Liu Xi, and if that's the case, Zhao Guan Shou would want to get rid of both Ye Liu Xi and Jiang Zhan. They don't know the full situation, so they can only take it step by step. Jiang Zhan comes to find Fei Tang to ask about Ye Liu Xi's situation, and Fei Tang knows she has no way to resist and can only answer whatever is asked.
Ding Liu and A He sleep together, and Ding Liu applies skincare lotion for her. A He is touched and expresses her concern for Fei Tang. She reveals that when she encountered Ye Liu Xi and the others before, she had already exchanged the Yellow Goat Head, which means Jiang Zhan won't be able to get the real Yellow Goat Head. Ye Liu Xi goes to see Zhao Guan Shou, expressing her desire to cooperate with them but also her lack of trust in them.
Zhao Guan Shou agrees to send a team of people to accompany Ye Liu Xi. After getting rid of Jiang Zhan, they will hand over the Yellow Goat Head to her. Ye Liu Xi pretends to be moved and admits her previous misunderstanding of Zhao Guan Shou. In reality, she used the opportunity to observe the layout of the study and noticed a box inside.
Ye Liu Xi returns and discusses with everyone how to steal the Yellow Goat Head. She asks A He about Zhao Guan Shou's skills. A He says that Zhao Guan Shou was very formidable when he was young, and his weapon is the cane he currently holds. Even a dozen people couldn't defeat him. Even now that he's older and his legs aren't as good, his skills are still impressive.
A He warns everyone to be cautious because this is Blackstone City, after all, Zhao Guan Shou's territory, and there are many of his Yu Lin Wei guards. Ding Liu can't stand it and says that the Yu Lin Wei treated her badly, and she keeps mentioning "our Yu Lin Wei." They never considered A He as one of their own. Ye Liu Xi tries to stop the argument, and Chang Dong takes Ye Liu Xi outside. Chang Dong acknowledges that A He has indeed become accustomed to it, but they have also treated A He poorly. It would be good for Ding Liu to wake A He up to this fact.
Ye Liu Xi and Chang Dong asked Lao Li if he knew about the layout of Zhao Guan Shou's study. Ye Liu Xi had noticed that there wasn't a single lock in Zhao Guan Shou's study and wanted to know the reason. Lao Li explained that it was because of a mythical creature called "Thiefless," which acted as a guardian. If the owner said, "Please come in," Thiefless would do nothing. However, if someone tried to steal something, Thiefless would catch them and gradually shrink them down to the size of a small soybean. Lao Li added that Thiefless could also determine a person's age. If the thief was under 22 years old, they wouldn't be killed but punished instead.
Jiang Zhan sent a message to Ye Liu Xi through A He, instructing her to bring the animal head golden ram and the proxy tongue to the gold mine tomorrow night. Ye Liu Xi thought of the twins and had them come out. She intentionally engaged Zhao Guan Shou in conversation, while the twins secretly imitated Zhao Guan Shou nearby. When the twins returned, they had transformed into Zhao Guan Shou's appearance, and Ye Liu Xi taught them the phrase "Please come in."
Since Ding Liu and Gao Shen were both under 22 years old, Chang Dong sent them to steal the animal head golden ram. The twins, disguised as Zhao Guan Shou, successfully brought Ding Liu and Gao Shen inside, using the phrase "Please come in" so that Thiefless didn't activate. Ding Liu and Gao Shen obtained the animal head golden ram and also found a magazine with an interview featuring Chang Dong. Unexpectedly, the twins transformed into Zhen Shanhe, and Thiefless attempted to capture them. Ding Liu and Gao Shen quickly escaped. The twins protected them from Thiefless and were enveloped in a protective film. Initially, Ding Liu thought the twins had died, but they emerged again, much to Ding Liu's joy.
Ding Liu and Gao Shen brought the magazine back, and Chang Dong was surprised to see his own interview in Zhao Guan Shou's possession.
