Episode 42 recap: Luo Huai Gong was sentenced to death, reaping what he sowed.
Luo Huai Gong did not fall into the hands of the police. As soon as Qi Heng got off the car, he noticed someone following him, and to his surprise, it was Luo Huai Gong. Luo Huai Gong has nowhere to retreat now. He even claimed that they were the ones who killed Guo Nian, whose neck was broken at the time. They engaged in a physical struggle, and Qi Heng managed to bring Luo Huai Gong down to the ground. Luo Huai Gong kept provoking Qi Heng, even asking Qi Heng to kill him. However, at the last moment, Qi Heng couldn't bring himself to kill Luo Huai Gong. He only dropped the axe near Luo Huai Gong's head and turned away, leaving the scene.
Qi Heng remembered how Luo Huai Gong had once tried to win him over, but Qi Heng firmly stated that he would always stand with what is right. Wu Shen Yuan called Qi Heng over, as he wanted Qi Heng to help him determine if he was guilty. However, Qi Heng expressed that it didn't constitute a crime.
Qi Heng also understood the purpose behind Wu Shen Yuan calling him, but Qi Heng had always respected Wu Shen Yuan and naturally believed in his character. Wu Shen Yuan believed that having someone like Qi Heng, who consistently upholds justice, was enough.
Ma La Song's condition slightly improved, so she quickly returned to work at the court. Her colleagues were very concerned about her. The Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission took the party secretary away. It was a very embarrassing incident to happen in front of so many people at the meeting. Subsequently, the leader removed his party emblem. Chief Xiang truthfully admitted his mistakes to the leaders and was taken away as well.
Secretary Su confessed everything at the police station. When Luo Huai Gong learned that the police had started suspecting Wang Peng, he wanted to kill Wang Peng. That night, Luo Huai Gong instructed his subordinate to buy aphrodisiacs and put them in Wang Peng's food. Unaware of what he had consumed, Wang Peng became drowsy, and then, when he looked at Secretary Su, he attempted to violate her. However, while they were in bed, Luo Huai Gong suddenly approached Wang Peng from behind and stabbed him, causing Wang Peng to collapse on the spot.
In reality, there was no knife in the room. Everything was intentionally orchestrated by Luo Huai Gong as a means to threaten Ling Auntie and Wu Shen Yuan. All the evidence was fabricated, part of his plan to control Ling Auntie and Wu Shen Yuan. Zhang Yan Jun felt fortunate that he didn't fall into Luo Huai Gong's trap, or else he would have met a grim fate as well.
The court quickly held a trial regarding Secretary Su's case. Secretary Su revealed everything she knew and expressed her relief that she could finally get a good night's sleep. She hoped that within her lifetime, she could go home and visit her parents who had been eagerly waiting for her return. Due to Secretary Su's substantial evidence provided to the court, she was ultimately sentenced to eighteen years in prison. She initially thought she would receive the death penalty, but she unexpectedly received a chance to reform herself.
Luo Huai Gong was sentenced to death due to the large scale of his crimes and multiple murder cases on his hands. He would finally pay the price for his actions. As Luo Huai Gong left the courtroom after the verdict, Qi Heng watched the scene, knowing that his wife had finally obtained justice.
Wu Shen Yuan, as he was completely unaware of the situation and admitted his mistake promptly, received a disciplinary warning from the organization. However, his proposal to start from the position of a clerk was not approved by the organization.
