Cheng Xiaoshi was in Jingjing's body and unintentionally overheard Master discussing Zhou Xiaobai going abroad for further studies with an investor. Seeing how humble Master Bai was, the investor reluctantly agreed. Master gave Jingjing two tickets to Chen Huizi's concert, telling her to go and relax with Zhou Xiaobai. While performing on stage, Zhou Xiaobai saw Cheng Nuo leave, and for a moment, she became distracted, causing the investor below to spot a flaw and leave disappointed.
After the performance ended, Jingjing said that Master was going to pass on the ancestral umbrella to Zhou Xiaobai. Zhou Xiaobai appeared nervous, clearly showing that she did not want to take on this task. Zhou Xiaobai returned to the theatre. Master punished her by making her kneel, as her mistake this time was too big. She severely criticized her performance today and how she would inherit the theatre in the future.
Zhou Xiaobai confessed to Master that she wanted to leave Chengya Troupe and see the outside world with Cheng Nuo. Master Bai felt disheartened seeing Zhou Xiaobai, whom she had nurtured since childhood, leaving for the sake of personal feelings. Zhou Xiaobai said that Master had sung the role of Bai Suzhen for a lifetime, but she didn't understand the feeling of love.
This time, even if it meant going through fire and water, she had to go out and see. Because of this matter, Master expelled her from the school. Another disciple came forward and told Master that the umbrella was missing. Cheng Nuo was waiting for Zhou Xiaobai at the station. The two left together by car. At this moment, Jingjing arrived, she absolutely had to know Zhou Xiaobai's whereabouts in the future.
Cheng Xiaoshi agreed to meet in fifteen years and gave her the ticket for Chen Huizi's concert, but Zhou Xiaobai did not accept it. Cheng Xiaoshi shouted from behind the car, no matter when she returned, Master would keep a lamp lit for her. Cheng Xiaoshi returned to reality and didn't know what "keeping a lamp lit" meant. For this mission, Lu Guang was clearly pursuing Zhou Xiaobai's specific whereabouts, which made Cheng Xiaoshi suspicious.
Coincidentally, Qiao Ling had two tickets to Chen Huizi's concert, and perhaps Zhou Xiaobai would go tomorrow. However, Lu Guang said he didn't want to attend lively occasions and also instructed Cheng Xiaoshi not to see Zhou Xiaobai. Cheng Xiaoshi directly asked if he was hiding something from him. The two parted ways unhappily.
It turned out that Cheng Xiaoshi had already confirmed with Qi Bin that Lu Guang had been actively looking for Zhou Xiaobai and hadn't entrusted Lu Guang to find this person. Lu Guang watched people coming and going at the entrance of the concert. Meanwhile, Cheng Xiaoshi was drinking alone with He Xu in a gloomy mood, clearly expressing his opinion of Lu Guang through his words.
Cheng Xiaoshi felt that when friends had secrets, it always felt like a personal hurt. He Xu knew that a rift had formed between him and Lu Guang and advised him that the thorn in his heart would only stop hurting when it was pulled out, so why not keep his distance? Chen Huizi's concert began. The theme was "Keeping a Lamp Lit for You," hoping to light the way home.
The scene was silent, and Zhou Xiaobai was listening intently from below. After the concert ended, Lu Guang found Zhou Xiaobai and asked her what she did in Haibula in '23, and if she killed a person named Xi Ta. Zhou Xiaobai denied it until Lu Guang took out a bracelet and said this bracelet was Master Bai's unique piece, given to her back then, so why did it appear at the scene?
Zhou Xiaobai stammered and confessed, admitting she had been to Haibula but did not kill anyone. She went to find Xi Ta for help at the time. Upon entering the room, she saw her lying on the ground. As she went to help her up, she didn't notice that the bracelet fell off at the scene. When she went to get medicine, the old lady had already stopped breathing.
At that time, she also called the emergency number using a public phone. Lu Guang believed what she said because Lu Guang had also investigated at the time, and there indeed was an emergency call made. Zhou Xiaobai said that this time she originally wanted the old lady to help find the Chunhe White Jade Bamboo Umbrella, but unfortunately, this incident occurred. Cheng Xiaoshi saw Lu Guang meeting Zhou Xiaobai privately and left disappointed. Lu Guang chased after him.
Lu Guang explained that his master, Xi Ta, had died accidentally during the aurora, which is why he investigated the past. Cheng Xiaoshi felt that he was just the gun, constantly being deceived under the guise of being a "Link Click" agent. He felt that Lu Guang did not treat him as a friend but was using him. Lu Guang recorded this mission for the fifth time.
He finally found a witness to his master's death, but also lost a friend. He tried to find Cheng Xiaoshi several times in a row, but was rejected. Jingjing broadcasted on television looking for the umbrella, after all, it was Master's treasured family heirloom that she had always yearned for. Zhou Xiaobai returned home and discovered again that Cheng Nuo had gambled away their only savings. She had been desperately earning money but couldn't fill this hole.
Zhou Xiaobai was packing her luggage to return to the school. Cheng Nuo said that she had long betrayed the school and had stolen and sold the umbrella. As soon as he said this, Zhou Xiaobai immediately understood that Cheng Nuo had stolen the umbrella. It turned out that on the night they eloped, he had stolen the umbrella in advance, and he also called Zhou Xiaobai a mere 'pretty face'.
Zhou Xiaobai regretted that her feelings had been misplaced for so many years. Zhou Xiaobai came to the hospital, hoping to see Master. She hid at the entrance and peeked in. Master's hair had already turned grey. Recalling Master's teachings to her, she shed tears sadly.
