In a bustling modern city, Jiang Yuan attended Jin Guodong's wedding at a high-end hotel as an alumnus and friend of Jin Yun. At the wedding, Feng Hongyang appeared as the best man; he was not only the head of Zhuo Ling Capital but also one of the main figures of the event. Feng Hongyang showed special attention to Jiang Yuan, which surprised Jin Yun, prompting her to ask about Jiang Yuan's relationship with Feng Hongyang. Jiang Yuan understood Feng Hongyang's behavior, believing that men tend to be interested in what they like, but she did not trust men's deep feelings.
After the wedding, Jin Yun and Jiang Yuan went to a climbing gym, where Jin Yun, being timid, was guided by a professional named Xiao Ding. In contrast, Jiang Yuan showcased her exceptional climbing skills and enjoyed the freedom of climbing on the rock wall. Feng Hongyang was distracted at the wedding, his attention focused solely on Jiang Yuan, feeling proud of her climbing performance. You Xinyi noticed Feng Hongyang's focus and tried to engage him in conversation, but his thoughts remained on Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan and Feng Hongyang enjoyed dinner at the climbing gym, discussing its facilities and Feng Hongyang's future fitness plans. Jiang Yuan jokingly asked when she could receive her breakup fee, to which Feng Hongyang replied that she should fish for bigger catches. You Xinyi suddenly appeared, interrupting their conversation. Feng Hongyang then left with You Xinyi, leaving Jiang Yuan alone.
Jiang Yuan enjoyed the twilight at the climbing gym while Jin Yun brought news about You Xinyi possibly getting a divorce. Jiang Yuan remained calm about it, believing it had nothing to do with her. Feng Hongyang decided to stay at the climbing gym to handle You Xinyi's divorce case while Jiang Yuan and Jin Yun returned home first. After returning home, Jiang Yuan moved back into her dormitory and focused on her studies.
While waiting downstairs in the dormitory, she unexpectedly ran into Wang Ming, who requested her company to go to Zhanglu. Jiang Yuan eventually agreed. Wang Ming was packing his belongings in his senior's shared apartment while Jiang Yuan waited in the stairwell. Suddenly, Wang Ming's senior appeared, adding complexity to the story. Zhao Can was waiting downstairs at Wang Ming's place, trying to find him. She brought news about Feng Hongyang and You Xinyi's impending divorce, hoping to influence Wang Ming and make him give up on Jiang Yuan.
However, Wang Ming showed no interest in Zhao Can's news; he refused to listen and clearly stated that he did not want to go to Zhanglu alone, implying he needed Jiang Yuan's company. Zhao Can was infuriated by Wang Ming's indifference; she accused him of being Jiang Yuan's "dog," always at her beck and call. Wang Ming had no response to this, while Jiang Yuan watched the scene unfold without paying attention to Zhao Can's provocation. In anger and jealousy, Zhao Can left while Jiang Yuan and Wang Ming headed to Zhanglu.
The next morning in Zhanglu, Jiang Yuan woke up to find Wang Ming missing from her side. She pulled back the curtains and saw Wang Ming busy on the shore, participating in the fishermen’s work as they set out to sea. Sitting at a breakfast stall eating breakfast, she observed Wang Ming at work. Amidst his busyness, Wang Ming took time to find Jiang Yuan; they decided to spend their remaining time together in Zhanglu.
Suddenly, Feng Hongyang appeared at Jiang Yuan's place, questioning whether she was unhappy and mistakenly assuming she was involved with Wang Ming. Jiang Yuan calmly admitted it, which enraged Feng Hongyang. Losing control of his emotions, Feng Hongyang forcibly took Jiang Yuan into the bathroom and doused her with cold water in an attempt to wash away any traces on her. During their intense argument, they accidentally shattered a glass partition; both Feng Hongyang and Jiang Yuan were injured in the process. Despite his injuries and deteriorating condition, Feng Hongyang insisted on taking Jiang Yuan away with him.
