Episode 22 recap: Xiao Yuandao was killed, and Wen Sihang took poison.

Ding Zhaozhao felt that Chu Bufan was truly cunning. She originally thought that the place they came to was Chu Bufan's foothold, but it turned out that the place Chu Bufan brought her to was his true residence. Chu Bufan was curious why Ding Zhaozhao believed in him so much. But after all, he was a thief. Chu Bufan was not afraid of these neighbors reporting him because he shared the stolen money with them every time.

Ding Zhaozhao felt that what her father did was worse than being a thief. Xiao Yuandao wanted to use Wen Sihang to exchange the account book. Ding Zhaozhao pretended that someone had knocked Chu Bufan unconscious, and then replaced the account book. She decided to face this matter alone, and if anything happened to herself, Chu Bufan could seek justice for those children on her behalf. Ding Zhaozhao came to the orphan's grave and took a look. Unexpectedly, Chu Bufan woke up and followed her.

Chu Bufan felt that Xiao Yuandao was now on the verge of madness. Ding He looked at his daughter and realized that she never believed in him, feeling a bit tired. Xiao Yuandao mocked Ding Zhaozhao. If Ding He's crimes were exposed, the century-old reputation of the Ding family would be ruined. Wen Sihang repeated himself, urging Ding Zhaozhao and the others to leave quickly.

Xiao Yuandao took the opportunity to take the account book but found out that it was fake. He felt that Ding Zhaozhao was playing a trick on him, so he went on a killing spree. Ding Zhaozhao was afraid of Wen Sihang leaving her. Chu Bufan was also heartbroken that Xiao Shiliu had left them like this. After several rounds, Ding Zhaozhao and Chu Bufan killed Xiao Yuandao together. Ding Zhaozhao felt that Chu Bufan was plotting all of this, and Chu Bufan framed Xiao Yuandao for this matter.

Ding He wanted his daughter to hand over the account book to him so that none of these crimes would be exposed. However, Ding Zhaozhao told her father that when something is done wrong, it is done wrong, and there is no point in trying to cover it up.
