Episode 9 recap: Wang Hai denies any involvement with Shanshan.
Liang Jing wants Wang Hai to fall in love with her again and experience the taste of being deceived and betrayed by a loved one. On this day, Liang Jing and Wang Hai attend an important event together. While Liang Jing goes to the restroom, General Gu takes the opportunity to praise Wang Hai, saying that he has good taste for choosing Liang Jing as his wife. This greatly pleases Wang Hai, and he finds Liang Jing particularly captivating that day. It's Shanshan's birthday today, and when she realizes that Wang Hai isn't accompanying her, she can't help but approach him. General Gu immediately realizes that Wang Hai is playing with fire and warns him not to be defeated by women. This makes Shanshan, who doesn't know her place, somewhat dissatisfied. Wang Hai promises to accompany Shanshan for her birthday once the important banquet is over.
When Shanshan leaves the banquet hall, Liang Jing stops her in the aisle and intentionally speaks about her own wealth, career, and children, emphasizing that Shanshan only has an insignificant body, which satisfies Wang Hai's desires. Shanshan is not convinced and wants to prove that Wang Hai loves her. She waits for Wang Hai in the room, envisioning a sweet life together. After the banquet, Wang Hai doesn't go back, but instead takes a walk with Liang Jing. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Liang Jing confronts Wang Hai about her knowledge of his relationship with Shanshan. Wang Hai immediately denies it, only admitting that Shanshan did indeed pursue him, but since Shanshan is Liang Jing's cousin, he considers it beastly to make a move on her.
Shanshan, hearing Wang Hai's words on the other end of the phone, becomes instantly infuriated and saddened. However, Liang Jing has already hung up, considering it her birthday gift to Shanshan. Angry, Shanshan smashes the carefully prepared cake on the ground, shattering it into pieces.
