Li Qian longed to escape the hospital room, weary of pretending to be Ning Chengming's girlfriend. However, with Gu Zhe's contract still unsigned, she resolved to continue the charade, hoping to leave swiftly after tomorrow's signing. As she turned back towards Ning Chengming's ward, she noticed a suspicious person in the hallway while nurses were in a frantic state, mentioning Ning Chengming’s room number and a patient in distress. Fearing the worst, Li Qian rushed to find him.

She breathed a sigh of relief when Ning Chengming emerged unharmed from the restroom. It turned out the injured patient was his roommate, who had swapped beds with Ning Chengming due to the heat and was subsequently pushed down the stairs, sustaining severe injuries. Meanwhile, Qi Wei, following the instructions Ning Chengming had left in a "brocade pouch," began searching for him and found the hospital's underground parking lot.

He was at a loss, wondering how to locate Ning Chengming amidst the numerous hospitals in the vicinity. There, he bumped into the individual suspected of being involved in Ning Chengming's incident in Shanghai. Misinterpreting the man as a private detective, Qi Wei persistently urged him to help find Ning Chengming, even attempting to show him a picture.

However, due to his own mistake, Qi Wei was showing the man a picture of himself, leading to a beating that landed him in the hospital. Later, recalling Ning Chengming's pre-written instruction, the "brocade pouch" further advised that if he couldn't be found, Qi Wei should pretend to have a quarrel with him in T Country and be scolded back to China. Li Qian, worried about Ning Chengming, hastily completed his discharge procedures.

She then called his hotel to inform them that Ning Chengming and his fiancée were returning and requested his belongings be moved to her room. The hotel staff, alerted to the situation, promptly redecorated Li Qian's room (room 1314, originally hers) into a romantic suite suitable for a couple, thoughtfully preparing everything from matching toothbrushes to couple's clothing. Upon entering the room, Li Qian was satisfied with the hotel's efficiency, confident that Ning Chengming wouldn't doubt their fabricated relationship.

Ning Chengming, although still without his full memory, seemed to be increasingly convinced by Li Qian’s narrative and felt a vague connection to her, even observing her with a subtle smile. While Gu Zhe was busy with negotiations, he felt a certain anxiety without Li Qian's support. He messaged Li Qian for assistance, but she insisted he handle it on his own. Gu Zhe, upon learning Li Qian was back, quickly went to look for her.

Li Qian, fearing Ning Chengming might discover them, used the excuse of buying him porridge and left the room. She met Gu Zhe outside, giving him advice on securing the contract. She did not, however, reveal that she was staying with Ning Chengming. Alone at a restaurant, Li Qian attempted to unlock Ning Chengming’s phone. After several attempts, she successfully accessed it.

She then changed the password to her birthday, deleted any photos that might be detrimental to her fabricated story, and subtly added two photoshopped pictures of herself and Ning Chengming together to his photo gallery. Concurrently, Ma Hao received a confirmation call regarding the success of his plan. The caller, providing details of the accident scene and bloody photos, assured him that Ning Chengming was dead. Overjoyed, Ma Hao eagerly anticipated replacing his "Vice President" nameplate with "President."

Later that evening, Gu Zhe, carrying a bottle of wine, arrived at Li Qian's hotel room to celebrate. He exuberantly announced his breakup with "Green Tea," the successful contract signing, and his newfound freedom from his father's pressure to inherit the family fortune. However, Li Qian rebuffed him, telling him to leave. Gu Zhe, puzzled by her resistance, speculated if she was hiding another man in the room.

As Li Qian firmly pushed him away, Ning Chengming's voice from inside the room called out, "Li Qian, who is this?" Gu Zhe’s face registered shock and disappointment as he realized Li Qian indeed had someone else with her.
