Episode 1 recap: Duan Xunchu returned home with great military achievements.
Duan Xunchu, in his first order, had people dig three feet underground to find Yao Ba Linwenyu's whereabouts. Although Linwenyu managed to evade the search by the officials, she couldn't escape the capture of her cousin Duan Xunchu. Duan Xunchu cornered her against the wall and slapped her. Within a short period of time, news of Duan Xunchu's victorious battles spread throughout the streets and alleys, and he deliberately celebrated in Shanghai. With eyes full of hatred, he burned Linwenyu's photos.
In this place, Linwenyu was involved in a pharmaceutical business with Boss Li. Boss Li specially offered her a drink and asked her to accompany him to the bank to withdraw money. After consuming the drink, Linwenyu felt dizzy and Boss Li helped her back to the room, instructing someone to guard the door. Just as Boss Li was about to close the door, Linwenyu pointed a gun at him. It turned out that she had secretly vomited the drink while he was off guard. Boss Li obediently handed over the remaining payment.
At that moment, Duan Xunchu had been tracking Linwenyu and arrived at the room. Without saying a word, he knocked out Boss Li and greeted Linwenyu, his enemy's daughter-in-law. He mocked her for becoming so lowly and a despicable woman who had played with him in the past. To seek revenge, he decided to intimidate her, but fortunately, this time Duan Xunchu only intended to frighten her.
The reason Duan Xunchu didn't kill Linwenyu was to make her suffer a greater price. He returned to his old residence, looked at the dilapidated state, and ordered people to renovate it. He decided to move back and live there, recalling the scene of his parents' murder in front of him when he was a child. His hatred towards Linwenyu grew stronger.
