Episode 40 recap: Li Ruo Yi's mother discovered Feng Yi Lun's whereabouts.

Yao Li came over and found this box, and showed it to Hu Yi Qiang. Yao Li asked Hu Yi Qiang what exactly was in the box and why he valued it so much. Hu Yi Qiang told Yao Li not to worry about it. Hu Li Jiang said that without this thing, he would not have been able to find it. Yao Li smashed the net on this side, took a piece of debris, and thrust it into Hu Yi Qiang's throat.

Hu Yi Qiang was also shocked. He didn't expect Yao Li to attack him and fell down. His subordinates informed Mr. Lin that Hu Yi Qiang was dead. Mr. Lin felt that the innocence of Shanghai was about to change. Li Ruo Yi was having dinner at home, and Li Ruo Yi's mother asked what happened last night. Was it dangerous? Li Ruo Yi told her mother not to think too much. It was just a normal police operation and there was no problem.

Chen Shu Yu came over to check on Feng Yi Lun, but Feng Yi Lun didn't have any fractures, so he just needed some rest. Li Ruo Yi apologized to San Jie and felt that it was because Feng Yi Lun blocked her that things turned out this way.

San Jie felt that it had nothing to do with Li Ruo Yi because she had always loved being in the limelight, and she had brought this upon herself. Chen Shu Yu said she had to leave first, but Li Ruo Yi didn't react at all, which made Feng Yi Lun unable to bear it.

Chen Shu Yu said she didn't expect any reaction from Li Ruo Yi anymore and asked Li Ruo Yi and Feng Yi Lun to talk it out while she left. Feng Yi Lun wondered if he had broken his skin, otherwise why would it hurt so much? He asked Li Ruo Yi to bring a mirror so he could see. Li Ruo Yi accidentally touched something from this side.

Feng Yi Lun told her to be careful because it was his family heirloom and very important. Miao A Xiu happened to come over but didn't go closer when she heard the commotion. She went back first.

Feng Yi Lun put the jade pendant into the pocket of his clothes. Li Ruo Yi had dinner with her mother and told her that she was in a hurry and had to leave first, promising to discuss any matters when she returned.

Li Ruo Yi brought her coat and accidentally dropped a piece of jade pendant. Li Ruo Yi's mother was shocked to see the jade pendant and asked where Li Ruo Yi got it from. Li Ruo Yi explained that it belonged to the friend who saved her from a knife attack, and she must have accidentally put it in her own clothes yesterday.

Li Ruo Yi remembered putting the item in the bag yesterday but may have put it in the wrong clothing. Li Ruo Yi's mother was deeply shocked, but Li Ruo Yi didn't pay much attention to these matters. She took the time to grab the jade pendant and left. Miao A Xiu was searching for something on Feng Yi Lun's side when he and his group arrived. They asked Miao A Xiu what she was doing there, and she explained that she was helping Feng Yi Lun pack up and take the laundry to be washed.

Li Ruo Yi's mother was also shocked. The jade pendant belonged to Miss Min. It was the family heirloom given by the master to Miss Min. It could summon their brothers who had been overseas for over 20 years. She had always thought that the child had died, but she didn't expect him to reappear. It seemed that he might still be alive. The steward thought it might be a mere imitation and couldn't prove anything. It could be that someone else obtained the jade pendant. However, the jade pendant of the Lu Xun school of learning couldn't be replicated by just anyone. Regardless, they must investigate and find out. The steward was asked to find the address of that child so they could go and see him.

The steward agreed and said they would immediately start searching. Li Ruo Yi brought a friend over, explaining that he knew about Yao Li's situation.
