Wei Ruolai looked at A-Wen in the pool of blood, heartbroken and grief-stricken. Yu Shiqing had Zhang Mingquan step forward to incite the bank presidents to sell the construction bonds to him, then drive up the price, and then devise a plan for them to buy them back. The stock price plummeted all the way to rock bottom, and Yu Shiqing made a huge profit with a quick turnover.

Pitiful were those retail investors who, like A-Wen, followed the trend and bought construction bonds; they lost everything and were eventually driven to desperation. Mr. Song left the entire mess to Shen Tunan. Yu Shiqing celebrated by drinking with Kang Shaojie and Zhang Mingquan, and he also wanted to see Shen Tunan become a laughingstock. The more Shen Tunan thought about it, the more something felt wrong.

Just as he was about to lock the construction bonds, Yu Shiqing and the others immediately cleared their positions and left. Shen Tunan suspected that the trader, Broker Liu, had tipped them off. Also, last time when he went to Zhabei to investigate the counterfeit currency case, the other party had also set up a fake workshop one step ahead.

Huang Congyun thought it was impossible, as Shen Tunan issued instructions via phone every time, and Broker Liu simply had no time to leak the information. Huang Congyun's words reminded Shen Tunan, and he immediately checked the office phone, discovering a listening device installed underneath. He guessed this had been secretly installed during the last office renovation. Shen Tunan was so angry his teeth were grinding. Huang Congyun advised Shen Tunan to go to Nanjing to complain to Chiang Kai-shek.

Shen Tunan couldn't help but smile bitterly, realizing that Kang Shaojie, Yu Shiqing, and the others had already set a trap for him to take the blame. Huang Congyun was so angry he didn't want to work anymore, and Shen Tunan was also completely disheartened, deciding to submit his resignation letter tomorrow. Aunt Zhou mortgaged her house to Boss Zhao to buy construction bonds.

Boss Zhao came to collect the debt, but Aunt Zhou had lost everything and had nothing left to repay. Boss Zhao wanted to repossess the house. Aunt Zhou argued with them based on reason and even swallowed the IOU note on the spot. Boss Zhao ordered his men to brutally beat Aunt Zhou. Wei Ruolai came home from work and saw this scene; he desperately protected Aunt Zhou. Aunt Zhou vented all her anger on Wei Ruolai.

Granduncle complained that Aunt Zhou hadn't listened to Wei Ruolai's advice to sell the bonds. Aunt Zhou fainted on the spot due to overwhelming anger. Boss Zhao had no choice but to leave dejectedly with his men. Wei Ruolai witnessed this scene, feeling an unspeakable pain in his heart. Shen Tunan said nothing while eating. Su Cishu saw that he had something on his mind and showed care and concern for him.

Shen Tunan then spoke about how Yu Shiqing and his ilk secretly manipulated the construction bonds and profited immensely from the national crisis. Shen Jinzhen gently advised Shen Tunan. Shen Tunan was completely disheartened by the corrupt Nanjing government. Granduncle, Wei Ruolai, and Niu Chunmiao mourned A-Wen together. Wei Ruolai was so sad his face was covered in tears.

Granduncle was going to Hong Kong to live with his son, and he advised Wei Ruolai not to continue working at the Central Bank. Niu Chunmiao advised Wei Ruolai to go back to their hometown with her. Aunt Zhou was crazy and delirious, talking nonsense. Niu Chunmiao persuaded her to leave after much effort. Wei Ruolai's heart was filled with self-blame, feeling that he was the main culprit.

--- Mingda came to Shen Tunan's house early in the morning and conveyed Chiang Kai-shek's order to him. Chiang Kai-shek ordered Shen Tunan to handle the aftermath of the construction bonds issue with full authority and also gave him a Zhongzheng sword. Shen Tunan knew the meaning of this sword: if he could not handle this incident well, he should atone with his death.

Shen Tunan advised Su Cishu to take Xiaoyuer back to her hometown in the countryside to temporarily avoid the situation, but Su Cishu insisted on staying with him through thick and thin. Fengju sent Aunt Zhou to a mental hospital. She believed Wei Ruolai was the culprit who harmed her aunt and swore to settle the score with Wei Ruolai.

Citizens came to the entrance of the Central Bank early in the morning to cause trouble, strongly demanding severe punishment for the masterminds behind the scenes. Wei Ruolai saw clearly from the side. Niu Chunmiao asked Wei Ruolai to pay for Aunt Zhou's hospitalisation fees. Wei Ruolai had lost all his money buying bonds and asked Niu Chunmiao to pay for the first three months for him.

Niu Chunmiao took the opportunity to suggest taking him back to their hometown, but Wei Ruolai refused to leave. He wanted to stay and avenge those who had died. That night, Wei Ruolai secretly came to the exchange to look for the list of large transaction data. Shen Jinzhen also came looking for these, and the two unexpectedly met. They searched separately and quickly found the list of transaction data.

Just as the two of them were about to leave, Yu Ziying came with people and burned the remaining lists of transaction data. Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen organized the stolen documents overnight. Niu Chunmiao couldn't help, so she went to bed early. Wei Ruolai and Shen Jinzhen stayed up the whole night and only finished organizing the settlement lists until dawn.

Shen Jinzhen wanted to make these evidences public, but Wei Ruolai wanted to hand these over to Shen Tunan. Shen Tunan publicly announced that the mastermind behind this construction bonds incident was the Japanese Fukuda Shinichi, and that the high-level government officials were not involved. Shen Tunan reminded those present to unify their statements and guide the public's attention outwards. After the meeting ended, Wei Ruolai handed the settlement lists he had organized overnight to Shen Tunan, clearly stating that the masterminds behind the scenes were Yu Shiqing, Zhang Mingquan, Kang Shaojie, and others.
