Pei Pei proposed to Shan Dandan, wanting to formally marry her as his wife. Shan Dandan was delighted by this admiring affection, and since she had been anticipating it for a long time, she did not refuse.

Sima Ruchu was furious that Yue'er had failed in her assassination attempt on Sima Ruyu, and he severely punished Yue'er. But Yue'er was extremely loyal to Sima Ruchu, and even tattooed Sima Ruchu's name on her shoulder. Although disappointed, Sima Ruchu still gave Yue'er another chance, then vented his anger. Shan Shuang Shuang witnessed their actions.

On the other side, Sima Ruchu's spy discovered that Su Jue was looking for Sima Ruyu. Sima Ruyu was saddened by the fact that Sima Ruchu wanted to kill him and started drinking. Pei Pei and Shan Dandan comforted him and expressed their support.

Shan Dandan decided to approach Sima Yuannian, the mine owner, to resolve the cooperation issue. She released the news that someone was going to assassinate the two young masters of the Sima family, hoping to provoke Sima Ruchu to take action.

She also sent a message to Sima Yuannian, saying that there were rare precious stones in Yuncui City, and hoping he would come.

Su Jue also heard the news of the assassination, and was worried that if Sima Ruchu died, he would not be able to cooperate with the Sima family. Therefore, he wanted to establish a good relationship with Sima Ruyu. But Sima Ruchu discovered his intentions and asked him to help kill Sima Ruyu.

Sima Ruyu told Pei Pei that Sima Yuannian's task was to secretly resell the good jade stones.

At the Su family's banquet, Pei Pei exposed Sima Ruchu's crimes, but Sima Ruchu did not admit it and ordered someone to kill Sima Ruyu. However, Sima Yuannian arrived in time and revealed Sima Ruchu's plot. It turned out that the one who attempted to assassinate Sima Ruyu was A-Liu in disguise, and the knife was a spring-loaded one, so Sima Ruyu was not injured.

Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, Sima Ruchu apologized to Sima Yuannian.

Su Jue also quickly apologized, but said he was unaware of Sima Ruchu's actions. Sima Yuannian revoked Sima Ruchu's authority and handed it over to Sima Ruyu to handle. He also gave the largest agency to Qipeige, which delighted Pei Pei and Shan Dandan.

Manager Wang was very anxious after learning that the Pei family had opened a raw stone shop.

Su Jue was even angrier, feeling that Pei Pei had harmed him. Shan Shuangshuang saw that Pei Pei and Shan Dandan were about to get married, and she was anxious, fearing that the Pei family was an enemy. Lady Pei Qinshi sent some tonic herbs, which made Shan Shuangshuang feel warmth.

She asked A-Liu about Pei Pei's childhood, but was seen by Pei Pei.
