Episode 3 recap: Lin Wenyu was punished and tied to the back of a car.
The steward told Lin Wenyu that it was because she had revealed the news of the commander's return to Deputy Officer Su over the phone. That evening, an incident occurred at the Duan residence, and the person who opened the door that day was her. She vaguely remembered receiving a phone call from her father asking why she didn't come home for the New Year when Commander Duan had already returned. Later, she heard some movement at the door and was about to check it when she was knocked unconscious by the intruders, and the steward witnessed this scene and wrongfully accused her of letting the intruders in.
Lin Wenyu explained that she went to check only after hearing the noise, but she didn't know what had happened afterwards. The maid noticed that Miss Lin Wenyu seemed distracted when she returned and expressed her intention to go and clarify things with Duan Xunchuchu. The next day, Yaren Hall was sealed by Duan Xunchuchu's orders. Duan Xunchuchu passed by Yaren Hall with Wanzhen, and Lin Wenyu intercepted their carriage, expressing her willingness to kneel and apologize, hoping he would spare Yaren Hall and its employees.
However, in order to make Lin Wenyu prove her sincerity, Wanzhen tied her with a rope to the back of the carriage and made her run along with it. Duan Xunchuchu recalled that Lin Wenyu had admitted to leaking the commander's whereabouts before he left, and in anger, he allowed the carriage to start moving. Lin Wenyu drove slowly, while Wanzhen demanded that she accelerate. Lin Wenyu lost her shoes as she was being dragged behind the car. At this moment, Duan Xunchuchu struggled internally between seeking revenge for his family and Lin Wenyu's kindness towards him. Finally, when Lin Wenyu fell, he couldn't bear it any longer and got off the car, asking her to tell the truth.
Due to his extreme agitation, Duan Xunchuchu coughed up blood.
