Work continued day in and day out. This day, Chi Bika conveyed Zhan Nanxian's message to Wen Nuan: due to the recent heavy workload, Wen Nuan had to work overtime on the weekend to handle the Yizhong case, but she would be compensated with triple her daily salary. As an employee of Qianyu, Wen Nuan naturally would not decline. Meanwhile, Zhan Nanxian and Gao Fang were eating steak together. Zhan Nanxian's mood was visibly low.
Gao Fang kindly reminded him that Wen Nuan's current workload was immense, and he shouldn't scare off this delicate young woman. Zhan Nanxian was very confident about this, saying that people only become idle and overthink when they have nothing to do. Gao Fang smirked, asking if Zhan Nanxian was perhaps "strictly monitoring" Wen Nuan because he saw a group photo in his WeChat Moments? It seemed that everything Zhan Nanxian did was to keep Wen Nuan by his side.
Yi Xin and Pan Weining met by chance at the golf course. To get closer to the beauty, Pan Weining volunteered to teach Yi Xin how to play golf. Yi Xin was exceptionally bright; under Pan Weining's guidance, she quickly grasped the essentials and played outstandingly. During their break, the two chatted while drinking juice. Pan Weining mumbled to himself that if he hadn't revealed the bid price to Zhu Linlu, Zhu Linlu wouldn't have rashly acquired Alpha.
Now, he felt too ashamed to face his friend. Yi Xin was fully aware of all this, but she feigned ignorance. Pan Weining was unwilling to doubt his beloved; he chose to believe Yi Xin unconditionally. More importantly, Pan Weining hoped Yi Xin would find true happiness. At Yi Xin's suggestion, Pan Weining sent many flowers to Wen Nuan. Wen Nuan was puzzled and instructed a staff member to send the flowers back.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Nanxian couldn't help but become jealous again. With great jealousy, he teased Wen Nuan, saying her charm was truly irresistible as she swayed between Zhu Linlu and Pan Weining. Wen Nuan had also been annoyed these past few days. Ever since she accidentally overheard Zhan Nanxian's conversation with Yi Xin, she had been displeased with Zhan Nanxian, feeling that she was being played by the two of them.
Therefore, Wen Nuan retorted to Zhan Nanxian rather unpleasantly, but Zhan Nanxian was not angered; instead, he looked relieved. Wen Rou's boyfriend broke up with her, leaving Wen Rou emotionally distraught. She got drunk at a bar. Wen Nuan and Zhan Nanxian went together to pick her up and take her home. With blurry, drunken eyes, Wen Rou mistook Zhan Nanxian for Zhu Linlu.
She couldn't help but complain, griping that Zhu Linlu was too cowardly, liking Wen Nuan but not daring to confess, and instead spreading rumors and being ambiguous everywhere. Ultimately, the person in Wen Nuan's heart was not Zhu Linlu at all. Zhan Nanxian stood aside, listening to Wen Rou's "drunken truth". He was secretly delighted, realizing that Wen Nuan and Zhu Linlu were not in a romantic relationship.
Zhan Nanxian drove the Wen sisters to their doorstep, where Zhu Linlu was already waiting. The two rivals started bickering as soon as they met. Wen Nuan quickly stopped them and thanked Zhan Nanxian. Zhan Nanxian showed a cunning smile, glad he had helped tonight, as he had heard many interesting truths from Wen Rou. Zhan Nanxian was jogging at home when Yi Xin called to invite him to lunch the next day. Zhan Nanxian readily agreed.
After hanging up, Yi Xin recalled Wen Nuan and Zhan Nanxian together, and silently warned herself that she absolutely could not give up. Then, Yi Xin called Pan Weining again; she planned to continue using this man to deal with Wen Nuan. The next morning, Wen Rou slowly woke up and found Zhu Linlu asleep on the sofa. Only then did Wen Rou realize that she had blacked out last night and cried endlessly.
Zhu Linlu was truly worried, so he stayed to help take care of her. While Wen Nuan was working, Pan Weining called, inviting her to lunch. Wen Nuan found it inconvenient to refuse and could only go, only to "accidentally" run into Zhan Nanxian and Yi Xin. The four looked at each other, not greeting each other, but each was calculating in their minds. Zhan Nanxian knew that the real head of Yizhong was Pan Wei'an.
Pan Weining was just a nominal director, but his ability to handle relationships smoothly and appropriately indicated that he was not simple. After the lunch break, Wen Nuan brought documents to Zhan Nanxian, but saw Yi Xin and Zhan Nanxian being affectionate with each other. Wen Nuan inevitably felt a bit disappointed, while Yi Xin was smug, believing she had gained the upper hand. Yi Xin met with Pan Weining, and she thanked Pan Weining for his repeated help.
Pan Weining smiled faintly, saying that he would go through fire and water for any command from Yi Xin. Not only that, Pan Weining also gave Yi Xin an idea: as long as Zhan Nanxian experienced a genuine betrayal, he would completely give up on Wen Nuan. As night deepened, Zhan Nanxian and Wen Nuan were still working overtime. So, Zhan Nanxian took Wen Nuan to a small restaurant, a place they frequently visited when they were in school.
The facilities in the restaurant hadn't changed; everything was so familiar. Wen Nuan had a poor appetite and put down her chopsticks after only a few bites. Zhan Nanxian advised Wen Nuan to stay away from Pan Weining, but Wen Nuan dismissed it, unwilling to let others interfere in her life. Seeing her stubborn nature, Zhan Nanxian decided to make a bet to see if Wen Nuan's friends were truly sincere.
