Bai Xin Ning's promotion brings new challenges.

Upon learning about the situation, Lin Yi advised Meng Xiao Xiao not to act on her own. Meng Xiao Xiao felt that she had helped Lin Yi, but instead of gratitude, Lin Yi told her not to meddle in his affairs. Meng Xiao Xiao was truly angry.

Bai Xin Ning was grateful to Li Ming Kang, as his assistance played a significant role. However, Li Ming Kang stated that it was all thanks to Lin Zhe. Lin Zhe handed over the surveillance video to Li Ming Kang, and Bai Xin Ning was genuinely grateful to both of them. Lin Zhe also found his older brother at the company and revealed that it was all Meng Xiao Xiao's doing. Lin Zhe simply didn't want Bai Xin Ning to be mistreated at the company. Lin Yi claimed that no one could love Dong Chen more than himself, as Dong Chen meant everything to him. Lin Yi suspected that the video in Li Ming Kang's possession was provided by Lin Zhe, and only one person could achieve the cutting technique used in Bai Xin Ning's designs, but that person would no longer collaborate with Dong Chen. Lin Zhe didn't want to know about these matters; he simply wanted to protect Bai Xin Ning from being mistreated.

Li Zhuo Ran also learned about Bai Xin Ning's mistreatment and assured her that he would help her. After work, Bai Xin Ning asked Lin Zhe to wait for her downstairs. She knew that Lin Zhe was on her side. Bai Xin Ning invited Lin Zhe for dinner, but he suggested watching a movie instead. They agreed to go on a date that evening.

When Bai Xin Ning arrived at work, she was surprised to find Qu Man and Gao Yuan personally coming to see her. They apologized and admitted that they had misunderstood Bai Xin Ning. They sincerely apologized to her. Gao Yuan and Qu Man even wanted to make their relationship public. Their colleagues were surprised, and Qu Man announced that she would soon go upstairs to sign the contract and use Bai Xin Ning's designs. The colleagues were thrilled. Shortly after, a high-level meeting was held at the company. Li Zhuo Ran naturally wanted Bai Xin Ning to become the head of the design department, but Lin Yi expressed reservations, stating that Bai Xin Ning lacked sufficient experience. In the end, a compromise was reached, and Bai Xin Ning became the Chief Designer, while Arianna became the Director of the Design Department.

Colleagues were pleased when they saw Bai Xin Ning's new workstation. She now had a larger desk, and she was considered on par with Ariana. Bai Xin Ning was also very happy. After this incident, she realized that no matter which side she stood on, there would always be people who turned against her. She understood that she needed to constantly improve herself. Ye Xiao Qing sometimes envied Bai Xin Ning and wished she could become as outstanding as her.

With an increase in salary, Bai Xin Ning moved out of her small home. She felt a bit reluctant because this was her first home in her home country. As she sat in the car, tears started to flow uncontrollably as she looked at the ring her mother had left her. Bai Xin Ning also visited her mother's grave and said that she had found what she was looking for. Soon, a meeting was held to select the new products for the summer. Ariana's designs were ordinary, while Bai Xin Ning presented a series of works inspired by the peony design she created for Qu Man. Her designs received the approval of most of the board members. However, Lin Yi mentioned that Song Cheng, who had the best cutting technique, seemed unwilling to collaborate with them. Bai Xin Ning quickly asked Lin Zhe to investigate Song Cheng. They discovered that Song Cheng was in Shanghai, and Bai Xin Ning decided to try and win him over. In the end, Bai Xin Ning's designs were chosen, and Lin Zhe urged her to find a suitable cutter before the 15th.

Ariana wanted Lin Yi to help her plead with the chairman, hoping to use her own proposal. However, Lin Yi told her to rely on herself and showcase her own value. Li Zhuo Ran called Meng Xiao Xiao and asked about Bai Xin Ning. Meng Xiao Xiao felt that Bai Xin Ning had great ambition and might be difficult to control. Li Zhuo Ran thought of a backup plan and asked Meng Xiao Xiao to find out more about Ariana's situation.

Lin Zhe went to his brother and asked why he always made people compete with Bai Xin Ning instead of giving her a chance. Lin Yi didn't want his brother to get involved in anything because he was the most important person to him, and he couldn't let him be in any danger.
