Episode 7 recap: Pei Qing's Heart Flutters
In episode 7, Shi Hui is anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof. Her friend Bing Bing is in big trouble, so she rushes to the prosecutor's office, determined to help her friend through this difficult time. After all, Shi Hui feels responsible for what happened to Bing Bing and can't bear to see her friend fall into a pit. When Bing Bing sees Shi Hui, her eyes well up with tears - she's both happy and aggrieved, as this whole situation is unbearable.
Bing Bing is so frustrated. She explains that she did nothing wrong, just had a drink, but it was spiked, and she got dragged into a murder case. Now her chance at happiness is ruined. Shi Hui tries to help Bing Bing remember, hoping to find some clues, especially about whether she saw anyone besides Zhou Gongzi last night.
Bing Bing gets angry just thinking about it. The bartender had even warned her that Zhou Gongzi was no good and she should stay away, but she was set on climbing the social ladder and ended up trapped.
Shi Hui doesn't give up, and goes to question the woman who helped Bing Bing, but she clams up and chases Shi Hui away.
Meanwhile, forensic scientist Fan Pei Qing examines the body and finds bite marks, plus a messy lifestyle. Yu Xing Bai's lab report shows the victim was high on drugs and out of it when someone took advantage and made them commit the crime.
To solve the case, Wang Jing relentlessly calls Guan Xueli, claiming to be the police, but Guan Xueli won't talk. The police go undercover as drug dealers and finally catch the dealers in the act. But Guan Xueli's apartment is also suspicious - she's thrown out all the drinks in the fridge, clearly panicked.
On another front, Shu Ting is running around like a headless chicken - caring for the kids and busy with jewelry design. Luckily, she landed a big order, boosting her confidence. Jing Hao Ran has become a stay-at-home dad, constantly in the kitchen.
He investigates a suspicious company, bringing the police, but Lu Yongyao is prepared, and the police get nothing. However, Jing Hao Ran notices Lu's suit is identical to the one found at the crime scene, suspecting him as the killer. Wang Jing also thinks Lu's assistant is shady.
President Tao joins the investigation and confirms the evidence.
As for Fan Pei Qing, she saves an elderly man having a heart attack in the park, and meets a man who makes her heart flutter, even though it feels like chance encounters. Yu Xing Bai is still searching for his wife in Japan, clinging to the slim hope she'll return, despite Awei's advice to give up.
