Episode 13 recap: Chen Man Cang met with an accident.

Afterward, the city lord learned the bad news from his subordinates, causing him great anxiety. Chen Man Cang rushed over to discuss the details of the transaction with the city lord. They soon realized that the other party had planned everything in advance. To their surprise, Wang Zi Yu, who was hiding nearby, overheard their conversation clearly. At this point, the city lord began to express suspicions about Wang Zi Yu's true identity. However, Wang Zi Yu outright denied it. From Chen Man Cang's perspective, he believed it was all a scheme by Gu Lao, and his brother would never do such outrageous things. As they were entangled in their thoughts, Wang Zi Yu, who was hiding nearby, was visibly frightened.

Afterward, Chen Man Cang became extremely upset. He went to a tavern alone and drowned his sorrows in alcohol. Coincidentally, he ran into his good friend Wang Zi Yu. After a few drinks, Chen Man Cang went to the moneylender's to borrow money, intending to use his permanent residence as collateral, promising to repay the loan with interest. However, to his dismay, they were informed that their credit situation in recent times was very poor, and they had no intention of helping. Without hesitation, they promptly kicked Chen Man Cang out, leaving him with nothing borrowed.
