Lu Lingfeng was shocked by the testimonies of Fang Jiong and Lin Bei. Their statements fit perfectly, with no flaws, leaving him temporarily unable to find a breakthrough. Su Wuming was even more amazed, believing it wasn't just a match, but absolutely seamless. Lu Lingfeng was anxious and decided to pursue the "ugly woman" he suspected that very night. Although Su Wuming tried to dissuade him, Lu Lingfeng's mind was made up.

Seeing this, Su Wuming did not insist further; he simply quietly took down the notice Lu Lingfeng posted after he left, and suggested he act tomorrow instead, hoping Lu Lingfeng could calm down and think, avoiding impulsive actions. Lu Lingfeng looked at the restaurant carefully chosen by Ying Tao, his heart filled with mixed feelings. This place was undoubtedly the most luxurious option among them, making him inwardly smile wryly.

Although he felt it was too extravagant, he silently accepted it out of pride, a hint of a wry smile on his lips, speaking with a bit of exasperated gritting of teeth. Lao Fei sensed Su Wuming's displeasure and tried to cheer him up by mentioning Lu Lingfeng was treating, but Su Wuming was preoccupied with the unsolved case and found it hard to smile.

When Lu Lingfeng asked about Pei Xijun's whereabouts, Ying Tao's response stirred ripples in his heart. Pei Xijun's appearance, and her fondness for the clothes he had given her, instantly brightened Lu Lingfeng's mood. However, Ying Tao's subsequent joke cast a shadow over this joy – the clothes had been delivered so quickly, which puzzled Lu Lingfeng and even made him mistakenly think the tailor shop had given him special treatment due to his status, making the clothes in advance.

This scene made even Su Wuming present sense something unusual. Lu Lingfeng and Pei Xijun decided to go to the tailor shop together to investigate, while Su Wuming insisted on examining the deceased's body meticulously again. He expressed his firm determination to Lao Fei that even if the most extreme measures were required – autopsy – he would ascertain the true cause of death.

Meanwhile, Da De seemed quite surprised upon learning that Lu Lingfeng wanted to thank them and proposed sharing a drink at the night market, especially when they mentioned wanting to order wedding clothes here. Da De stated he needed to go back and discuss it with his wife before deciding. Pei Xijun stood beside him, looking at Lu Lingfeng, her heart full of shyness and joy.

At the tailor shop, a significant discovery by Su Wuming turned the entire case around – he noticed that Li Yun's body still had the smell of lime. Lao Fei confirmed this after verification. When toasting Da De, Lu Lingfeng noticed that although Da De didn't drink, his hand trembled uncontrollably. This aroused his suspicion, especially upon learning that Da De was still busy with work after his master's death. This unusual behavior deepened his curiosity.

Pei Xijun keenly assisted Lu Lingfeng beside him, and Da De inadvertently revealed during the conversation that Fang Jiong had also proposed to Shen Ping. Subsequently, Lu Lingfeng directly asked Fang Jiong why he had concealed the fact that he had previously pursued Shen Ping. Fang Jiong explained that it was an event from many years ago and not appropriate to mention now.

To pursue clues, Lu Lingfeng began searching for someone who sold lime and unexpectedly learned that the "ugly woman," Mudan, actually knew something. At this point, Su Wuming made a new request to Pei Xijun; he hoped Pei Xijun could forget the previous portraits and redraw them to obtain more accurate clues. When talking about Shen Ping, Fang Jiong emotionally revealed the grudges between himself and Li Yun.

It turned out he had introduced Li Yun to Shen's father, but unexpectedly, Li Yun ended up stealing Shen Ping. Fang Jiong left indignantly, leaving behind more unsolved mysteries. Su Wuming asked Lin Bei to describe the mysterious person in detail and asked Pei Xijun to draw a portrait based on the description.

Pei Xijun was surprised to find that they had previously drawn three completely different individuals, while Ying Tao speculated that someone behind the scenes was deliberately causing confusion. Lu Lingfeng was half-convinced by Su Wuming's deduction, thinking his words were almost absurd. However, Su Wuming further proposed that perhaps these three people didn't exist at all. He suggested that Lu Lingfeng ask Huangpu Tan for help, who readily agreed.

Subsequently, Su Wuming decided to open the coffin and examine the body to uncover the truth. Suo Long found Chu Bin's grave, just as Chu Jia was paying respects to his brother. Ying Tao quickly subdued Chu Jia. Chu Jia was shocked and angry at the act of opening the coffin, recalling Chu Bin's grief when he discovered Li Yun and Shen Ping were married.

Su Wuming invited Chu Jia to witness the process of opening the coffin, but before even starting, he had already concluded that the coffin was empty. Su Wuming and the others had long sensed the untruthfulness in the suspects' words. Finally, they decided to open the coffin. They speculated that Lin Bei might be Chu Bin, who returned under the name Lin Bei for revenge.
