Ye Xingcheng deliberately brought the two children to Fang Jiashu's house. Fang Jiashu, sweating profusely, opened the door and looked at the two children in front of him. He remarked that they had grown so big. Le Yan directly shook off Fang Jiashu's hand and went straight into the house with the luggage to find their mother. The children had never seen their father since birth, as family matters were insignificant compared to national affairs. Ye Xingcheng criticized them for leaving the children at the hotel without caring for them for two days and nights. Tao Yuling pretended to be jealous and said that Fang Jiashu had not explained who his lover was, so they should never expect to see the children. Tao Yuling worried that the children might accidentally reveal something and used the excuse of cleaning their dirty faces to take them to the bathroom. There, she told Le Yan that the person who brought them back was a Japanese spy, while the other person was now their father. Once the people outside left, they would give her an explanation. Ye Xingcheng suspected that they were taking too long to freshen up, but Fang Jiashu explained that they were used to being frugal in their small hometown. After bathing, they would also wash their clothes along the way. Tao Yuling even had a nickname for that habit. Fang Jiashu realized the issue and didn't pursue it further, diverting the topic and offering tea to Ye Xingcheng. Fang Jiashu opened their suitcases and handed the dirty clothes to them. Ye Xingcheng took the opportunity to inspect their belongings. Before he could finish checking, Tao Yuling stood behind him and asked if he found anything. Fang Jiashu scolded her for leaving the socks in the bathroom, almost causing him to slip. Tao Yuling retorted that he was too busy hiding his lover in the Golden House to notice the balcony. They intentionally argued in front of Ye Xingcheng, who finally left. Once Ye Xingcheng was confirmed to be far away, Tao Yuling introduced the two children. However, the children didn't recognize Fang Jiashu as their father. Le Yan wanted to leave, but Tao Yuling pulled her into the bedroom. Fang Jiashu found a bullet shell and let Xiao Shitou play with it, and the boy was very interested. Tao Yuling took out a carved wooden item and gave it to Le Yan, saying it was a gift from her father. Xiao Shitou was Fang Jiashu's biological son from before he went abroad, while Le Yan was Lao Zhao's daughter. Her mother had been arrested and executed by the Nationalists shortly after giving birth to her. Tao Yuling was divorced and took her daughter to find work, and at that time, Lao Zhao was her superior. After the Work-Study Movement was attacked by the Nationalists, she managed to escape and developed a relationship with Lao Zhao. Due to her hometown being occupied by the Japanese, she brought her daughter along. Additionally, Le Yan had a heart condition, so she came to seek treatment from a foreign doctor. Fang Jiashu knew that Sun Huaimin was the traitor when he wrote the code name "麻子" (Mole) because there was no resemblance between Sun Huaimin and the term. The person who overheard the meeting that night mistakenly believed that "麻子" was a code name and reported it to Room 76. However, the word "麻子" was a term commonly used by people from Hubei Province to refer to socks, but Sun Huaimin, who was from the north, thought it was a code name and informed Room 76. Sun Huaimin realized that he had been fooled, and with the rain washing away his markings, there was no hope of his people rescuing him. Ye Xingcheng reported the situation of him bringing the children to Fang Jiashu's house to Director Li, who suspected that something was wrong with how Tao Yuling treated the children. He asked Ye Xingcheng to directly inquire about the reason from Fang Jiashu. Director Li explained that he introduced Ye Xingcheng to Room 76 because the Communist Party was different from the Nationalists and the Japanese – they were genuine. He was cautious about dealing with Fang Jiashu due to his high-level connections, even with the Japanese, and he might become a useful son-in-law in the future. Fang Jiashu began to interrogate Sun Huaimin about how he betrayed them. Sun Huaimin said it was due to financial difficulties, and he met Zheng Feixiong, who was Li Lixing's secretary. Zheng Feixiong informed him of the meeting, but later received a notice from Fang Jiashu and decided to withdraw at the last minute. Seeing that Sun Huaimin was not telling the truth, Fang Jiashu handed him a pair of pliers, scaring him. Sun Huaimin confessed that he knew very little and admitted that he betrayed Li Zhengxun. Fang Jiashu directly hit his leg, and Sun Huaimin cried, saying he was sorry to Li Zhengxun and couldn't withstand the severe torture by the people from Room 76. Sun Huaimin hadn't received any news from his people, and Yang Junping was acting normal. There was no sign of Sun Huaimin in his home. Director Li invited an outsider like Sun Huaimin to make things easier since the more people involved, the more passive it became. Sun Huaimin asked Tao Yuling to speak up for him, but Tao Yuling wanted to kill him. However, as he still had some value, she decided to keep him for a couple more days. Sun Huaimin was actually safer in Fang Jiashu's house. His primary task now was to stabilize Ye Xingcheng and Li Lixing. Li Lixing arranged for Fang Jiashu to inspect the garbage dump while secretly monitoring Ye Xingcheng. Tang Xing was Li Zhengxun's fiancée and was now both excluded as a suspect and considered dangerous. Li Lixing planned to arrest Tang Xing. They intended to find Lao Zhao first and then seek help from the organization to rescue Tang Xing. Comrade Haichao's radio station was in Fang Jiashu's house, but the remaining note left there was meaningless. Before leaving for the garbage dump, Fang Jiashu left the note for Tao Yuling. In the closet, Sun Huaimin deceived Tao Yuling by claiming to have a heart condition and asked her to call Fang Jiashu. Tao Yuling didn't believe him, but Sun Huaimin fainted inside the closet.
