Episode 9 recap: Cheng Feng Takes Initiative to Help Man Yue
In Episode 9, after mistakenly killing Kuang Wen Hai, Kuang Yong Yuan is planning to escape with the money. However, he unexpectedly runs into Cai Ge and his men, with Yu Man Yue coincidentally present. Cai Ge is furious, as his daughter was also injured in that incident. He orders his men to deal with Kuang Yong Yuan and leaves the scene with Yu Man Yue. Cai Ge wonders how Yu Man Yue knew that the Kuang father and son were about to clash.
It turns out that Yu Man Yue had already suspected Kuang Wen Hai's intention to flee. She quickly contacted Cai Ge to help sabotage Kuang Wen Hai's smuggling plan, leaving them without a boat. Then, she sent someone to intercept Kuang Wen Hai in hopes of retrieving the money. During the chaos, Kuang Wen Hai's phone fell, and Yu Man Yue picked it up. Taking advantage of the situation, she texted Kuang Yong Yuan and deliberately ignored his calls, planting seeds of doubt between the Kuang father and son.
On the other hand, Mo Jia Lang, through a series of analyses, deduced that Yu Man Yue was meticulously planning her revenge. Just then, he received a report of a fight at the docks and rushed over, only to pass by Yu Man Yue and her group. Although Kuang Yong Yuan was injured, he managed to jump into the water and escape.
After receiving news, Cai Ge felt that Kuang Yong Yuan was as good as dead and wouldn't pose much of a threat in the near future.
At the hospital, Cheng Feng couldn't find Yu Xi Chen and learned from a nurse that Yu Man Yue had taken her away. He hurried after them and overheard their conversation. Yu Xi Chen didn't want to be a burden to her sister, but Yu Man Yue insisted that her sister was her source of strength. The sisters, sharing a deep connection, decided to face the challenges ahead together.
Cheng Feng had previously overheard Yu Man Yue's secret in the bakery, knowing that both she and her sister had suffered at the hands of Jiang Ji Jun and Kuang Yong Yuan. Now, hearing their conversation, he felt even more sympathy for Yu Man Yue.
He promised Yu Man Yue that he would always be by her side and that she could ask for help anytime she needed it. With Kuang Wen Hai now deceased and Kuang Yong Yuan receiving his due punishment, it was time to deal with Jiang Ji Jun.
As Jiang Ji Jun and his father, Jiang Zhe Xian, left the dinner table, Mrs. Jiang began scolding Zhuo Hui Yun. Zhuo Hui Yun planned to throw a surprise party to help reshape Jiang Ji Jun’s image.
Yu Man Yue casually mentioned that Jiang Ji Jun had bought a yacht and suggested naming it "Hui Yun" to showcase Jiang Ji Jun's affection for Zhuo Hui Yun. After signing a contract with Bao Le and First Steel, Jiang Ji Jun had the funds to purchase the yacht.
Meanwhile, Yu Man Yue and Zhu Bai Zhong were busy gathering evidence against him, especially trying to find the person who helped him launder money. At the surprise party, Jiang Ji Jun was forced to publicly display his love for his wife, but when he saw his yacht being named after someone else, he felt incredibly frustrated.
He wanted to leave immediately but was worried about losing face. Fortunately, Yu Man Yue had prepared in advance and made up an excuse for Jiang Ji Jun to "take Zhuo Hui Yun home." Once the car drove off, Jiang Ji Jun dropped the facade and threatened Yu Man Yue by grabbing her by the neck.
At that critical moment, Cheng Feng created a distraction that brought security to the scene, saving Yu Man Yue. Cheng Feng offered to help her again, but she refused. However, knowing that Yu Man Yue was investigating Jiang Ji Jun's illegal activities, he proactively gave her the yacht purchase contract.
Yu Man Yue used her hacking skills to infiltrate the email of He Wan Company and discovered their close business dealings with a Hong Kong accounting firm named An Shen. Zhu Bai Zhong speculated that An Shen was likely the "white glove" they were looking for—the tool Jiang Ji Jun used for money laundering.
