Episode 20 recap: Yan Zhen refuses to forgive Chu Zejia.

Chu Zejia faked his death because during his tenure, he discovered that whenever he audited the accounts, not only was everything obstructed, but even the accountants gradually disappeared. This made him realize how strong the resistance was. On the day of their wedding anniversary, Chu Zejia received a message, knowing that someone had tampered with the cruise ship. As soon as the ship left the shore, it would explode. Before leaving, he secretly edited a text message on his phone to show Yan Zhen. His original plan was to return to Yan Zhen by taking a small boat before the explosion. However, the explosion happened earlier than he expected, and as a result, he was seriously injured and went abroad for treatment. Once he recovered from his injuries, he immediately returned to the country and appeared in front of Yan Zhen as Chu Ze'an.

Chu Zejia explained everything clearly, hoping that Yan Zhen could forgive him. However, Yan Zhen silently entered the room and closed the door, showing no interest in Chu Zejia, who failed to inform her of the truth earlier. It turned out that Chu Zejia, posing as Chu Ze'an, met Gu Cheng and learned that Gu Cheng was adopted by Mrs. Chu and had never harmed Yan Zhen. They reached a cooperation agreement to find the mastermind behind the scenes, which led to the scene at the shareholders' meeting.

Yan Zhen's heart turned to ashes. She would rather believe that Chu Zejia was dead than pay any attention to him. Chu Zejia began to recount their past, and he vividly remembered the first day of their honeymoon when Yan Zhen dreamt of falling from the sky and woke up anxious to check if her legs were alright. Every month they were together, Yan Zhen would talk about losing weight, but she could never stick to it for more than three days. Chu Zejia knew that Yan Zhen had ulterior motives when she joined An Shi Group, and she knew that he knew. These memories brought tears to Yan Zhen's eyes, but they couldn't stop her from coldly turning Chu Zejia away.
