Episode 9 recap: Ai Ping threatened to kill Zhu Li Qi.
Shao Jia Bi told Qiu Zhi Bin that Qiu Zhi Tong might have found out that she is his biological mother. Unexpectedly, Qiu Zhi Tong overheard the conversation and was extremely shocked. After learning the details, Qiu Zhi Tong felt absurd and also felt cold-hearted towards Qiu Han Yang. Shao Jia Bi and others requested Qiu Zhi Tong to keep this secret for them.
Qiu Zhi Lan deliberately discussed work at Gao Cheng's store in order for Gao Jun to see it. However, Gao Jun only felt that she was being provoked, but still agreed that it was a good thing for her to reform herself. Qiu Zhi Lan asked him if he would be willing to have dinner with her as a way to change herself, and Gao Jun agreed.
When the two of them went to eat, they happened to encounter Qiu Hao Er at the restaurant discussing the diamond shopping mall project with Zhao Qi Bang, the CEO of the Zhao family. Qiu Zhi Lan said that there must be an ambiguous relationship between the two. After hearing this, Gao Jun lost his appetite and focused on Qiu Hao Er's table.
Qiu Shou Yi and Qiu Zhi Bin gathered all the funds they could, which amounted to only four billion. At this time, the secretary called and said that Dai Qi Ting had swiped his card for three million. After hearing this, Qiu Shou Yi angrily told the secretary to cancel Dai Qi Ting's card.
In the evening, Qiu Shou Yi asked Dai Qi Ting to borrow some money from her family as a deposit, but Dai Qi Ting didn't want to lose face and said that Qiu Shou Ren, the eldest son of their Qiu family, should contribute money. After hearing this, Qiu Shou Yi went to find Qiu Shou Ren. Qiu Shou Ren heard that they were still short of thirty billion and was also in a difficult situation. Even if he gathered all the money he had, it would only amount to one billion.
Zhu Li Qi heard that he was going to contribute money for the company and angrily left. At the dinner table, several people had conflicts over this matter. Qiu Hao Er told Qiu Shou Yi that she had a solution. Qiu Hao Er said that she had reached a verbal agreement with Zhao Qi Bang and they would cooperate to develop the diamond shopping mall and Zhao's high-end residential project. Zhao Qi Bang thought that since they were going to invest, it would be better to lend the money to Qiu Hao Er in the form of a commitment fee, and then Qiu Hao Er would lend it to the Qiu family to help them in their urgent situation. Qiu Shou Yi agreed to this project.
It turned out that Qiu Shou Ren borrowing money was also part of the act. He praised Qiu Hao Er's intelligence and asked her why she didn't stop the D project if she had the opportunity. Qiu Hao Er said she had other ways and that the most important thing now was to completely obtain the diamond shopping mall. Ai Ping lost five million in futures trading, and she came to Zhu Li Qi again to borrow money, using the photos of Zhu Li Qi making quick money as a threat. Zhu Li Qi didn't want to be controlled by her and asked her to think it through.
When Ai Ping was going downstairs, she happened to bump into Dai Qi Ting. Dai Qi Ting took the initiative to approach her and asked about Zhu Li Qi's past. Ai Ping noticed her interest in Zhu Li Qi and said that she had something that she could sell to her. After returning home, Dai Qi Ting was once again angered by Zhu Li Qi and became interested in what Ai Ping had in her possession.
In the evening, Zhu Li Qi and Qiu Shou Ren had a candlelight dinner and couldn't help but feel down, thinking about Ai Ping's threats earlier in the day. The next day, Ai Ping unexpectedly fell to her death from a building, and Zhu Li Qi burned all the photos. The police conducted an investigation into Ai Ping's death and questioned Zhu Li Qi. The police determined the case as a regular falling incident and told her not to worry. Zhu Li Qi pretended to remain calm and answered the police's questions.
The police also questioned Dai Qi Ting. Nervous, Dai Qi Ting asked Qiu Zhi Tong to accompany her. Dai Qi Ting claimed that Ai Ping had approached her first and tried to shift the suspicion onto Zhu Li Qi. Qiu Shou Yi learned about the police questioning Dai Qi Ting and advised her to avoid associating with shady individuals in the future. Dai Qi Ting suggested warning Zhu Li Qi.
Zhao Qi Bang went to a flower shop to buy flowers for Qiu Hao Er, coincidentally visiting He Mei Ying's flower shop. He Mei Ying was surprised to see the address written by Zhao Qi Bang. At that moment, Qiu Hao Er arrived, and Zhao Qi Bang was astonished to see her.
He Mei Ying believed that Zhao Qi Bang must have feelings for Qiu Hao Er, but Qiu Hao Er dismissed her thoughts. He Mei Ying hoped that Qiu Hao Er could start a new romantic relationship, but Qiu Hao Er changed the subject and left.
Zhu Li Qi learned that Dai Qi Ting was also present at the scene of the incident and asked her if she wanted to learn about her own secrets from Ai Ping. Dai Qi Ting admitted to it and even suspected that Zhu Li Qi had killed Ai Ping to silence her. Zhu Li Qi didn't deny it and warned Dai Qi Ting to be careful, as she could be the next target. Dai Qi Ting had nightmares because of Zhu Li Qi's words.
The next day, Dai Qi Ting informed the police about the evidence Ai Ping had against Zhu Li Qi and claimed to suspect Zhu Li Qi of killing Ai Ping.
