Episode 8 recap: Ji Lian Yun drugged Xue Dong Feng.
Fang Changlin, looking at Xue Zhi Hai's gun, was scared and pleaded for mercy. Xue Zhi Hai became interested and signaled for Fang Changlin to leave quickly. Fang Changlin immediately left, relieved that he saved his own life. Xue Dong Feng brought food for Ji Lian Yun, but Ji Lian Yun refused to eat any of it. She even said she needed to use the restroom. Xue Dong Feng directly took out a spittoon to make it convenient for Ji Lian Yun, which she couldn't accept. She knew Xue Dong Feng already knew she came to the Xue family for Fang Fei, and even if she didn't say anything, he would soon find out the truth. So she asked Xue Dong Feng to let her go, and the two of them started to talk slowly.
Ji Lian Yun remembered that she used to watch while Xue Dong Feng was busy. Xue Dong Feng mentioned the day when Ji Lian Yun left without saying a word after eating. It made Ji Lian Yun feel guilty. Xue Dong Feng cooked three dishes, two of which were Ji Lian Yun's parents' favorites. However, he wasn't interested in them. He just wanted to know why Ji Lian Yun married Xue Zhaokun and entered the Xue family. Ji Lian Yun handed Xue Dong Feng a glass of wine and mentioned that Fang Fei used to be a dancer. Because her mother took pity on her, she brought her into the Ji family as an adopted sister. Unexpectedly, Fang Fei climbed into her father's bed and caused chaos in the Ji family. She even falsely accused the Ji family of being involved in the illegal tobacco business and seized their assets, causing the death of Ji family members.
After drinking the wine, Xue Dong Feng felt his head getting dizzy from Ji Lian Yun's words. But it was already too late. Ji Lian Yun wanted nothing more than to kill Fang Fei and be done with it. So, in the late night, she took a dagger and went to end Fang Fei's life. However, Xue Dong Feng appeared in time and stopped her, reminding her that if both she and Fang Fei died, no one would know about the Ji family's grievances.
Xue Zhi Hai punished Fang Changlin and apologized to Ji Lian Yun. Fang Fei, seeing Fang Changlin injured and feeling angry, couldn't understand why everyone was protecting Ji Lian Yun.
