Episode 25 recap: Qiu Shou Ren realized he needed to return to the Qiu family.
Zhu Li Qi wanted to take Dai Qi Ting down with her, so Zhu Li Qi drank a sleeping medication-laced drink and passed out. Dai Qi Ting struggled to try to save herself, but by the time Qiu Shou Ren and Qiu Zhi Tong arrived, they were both unconscious. Qiu Shou Ren broke the glass door and took them to the hospital. When Dai Qi Ting woke up, she was determined to make Zhu Li Qi pay. Qiu Shou Yi said he would talk to Qiu Shou Ren, and Qiu Shou Ren hoped they would let Zhu Li Qi go. But Qiu Shou Yi asked if Qiu Shou Ren had considered that Zhu Li Qi might have married him for ulterior motives. Before Qiu Shou Ren could ask what he meant, Qiu Zhi Tong arrived with the police, saying they needed to investigate thoroughly. Dai Qi Ting refused to say anything, so the police agreed to come back the next day to take her statement.
Qiu Shou Yi sent the others away, and Dai Qi Ting asked why he didn't let her tell the truth. Qiu Shou Yi said Zhu Li Qi did this because Dai Qi Ting had leaked her bedroom photos, causing her to miscarry. If Qiu Shou Ren found out, he would never forgive her. Dai Qi Ting became afraid and agreed to treat it as an accident, as Qiu Shou Yi suggested.
Qiu Hao Er was exhausted from Zhu Li Qi's actions, and He Mei Ying felt bad for her, but was puzzled why Zhu Li Qi would want to take Dai Qi Ting down with her. Qiu Hao Er also felt there was more to the story.
Qiu Zhi Bin received the money and happily made plans to celebrate on a yacht with Ma Xiao Ling. When Ma Xiao Ling arrived early to set up, she found Qiu Zhi Lan's phone under the table and quickly hid it in her bag before Qiu Zhi Bin arrived.
Ma Xiao Ling met with Qiu Hao Er, discreetly asking how the investigation into Qiu Zhi Lan's case was going. Qiu Hao Er said the police found Qiu Zhi Lan had been at the yacht dock that night, and Ma Xiao Ling urgently asked if she had seen anyone there.
Later, Ma Xiao Ling was sitting on her bed lost in thought, holding Qiu Zhi Lan's phone, when Qiu Zhi Bin walked in and saw her. She asked if he was involved in Qiu Zhi Lan's death, and he said he had never even been to the yacht dock that night, and would willingly give the phone to the police.
Qiu Zhi Bin did turn the phone over to the police, but Gao Jun still firmly suspected him.
Shao Jia Bi asked Qiu Zhi Bin about his phone, and Qiu Zhi Bin told her that he had indeed seen Qiu Zhi Lan at the yacht pier, but Qiu Zhi Lan fell into the sea because she was emotionally distressed about her background. Qiu Zhi Bin jumped into the sea to rescue her, but it was too dark and he couldn't pull her out. Shao Jia Bi felt very guilty, thinking she was responsible for her daughter's death. She asked Qiu Zhi Bin what he plans to do now that the police suspect him. Qiu Zhi Bin said he wants to leave Hong Kong with Ma Xiaolin and go abroad to live, and he hopes Shao Jia Bi will keep it a secret.
Gao Cheng encountered Shao Jia Bi at the hospital, where she was accompanying Ma Xiaolin for a prenatal checkup. Gao Cheng was delighted to learn that the child was Qiu Zhi Bin's. The police found a suicide note written by Zhu Li Qi to Qiu Shou Ren under the yacht's seat, which revealed the truth about Zhu Li Qi's parents' death and the intimate photos. Qiu Shou Ren felt very sad for Zhu Li Qi and told Qiu Hao Er everything. Qiu Hao Er wanted Qiu Shou Ren to seek revenge for Zhu Li Qi and reclaim the inheritance rights. He also told Qiu Shou Ren that the real culprit behind the diamond mall fire was actually Qiu Zhi Bin. Qiu Shou Ren was shocked and finally decided to take charge of the family.
Qiu Shou Ren told Qiu Shou Yi that he wants to return to the Qiu Group as the vice chairman. He showed Qiu Shou Yi Zhu Li Qi's suicide note and told him about their family's past wrongdoings, threatening him to consider the situation carefully. Qiu Shou Yi was furious.
In the evening, Qiu Shou Yi summoned Qiu Zhi Bin to the study room and slapped him, questioning him about the diamond mall fire. Qiu Zhi Bin tried to explain, but Qiu Shou Yi cut him off, saying that it was because of him that Qiu Shou Ren is now using this incident to threaten him to return to the Qiu Group as the vice chairman. Qiu Zhi Bin said he had already dealt with Annie, and they had no evidence. But Qiu Shou Yi was still very angry, saying that if Qiu Zhi Bin was not his biological son, he would have kicked him out of the Qiu family long ago.
