Upon learning of Li Xuan's broken engagement, the Old Madam is greatly shocked and enraged. Chu Bing publicly humiliates Li Xuan, calling him a "good-for-nothing" and "waste," and resolutely severs ties with him, boasting of herself as a "phoenix among men." Li Xuan appears flippant but observes coldly. At this moment, Li Hao seizes the opportunity to confess his love to Chu Bing and propose, even at the cost of sacrificing the Li family's interests, but is ruthlessly rejected by Chu Bing. Subsequently, Li Hao openly challenges Li Xuan before the elders of the Qilin Society, attempting to usurp the position of spokesperson by offering to transfer seventy percent of the Qilin Society's interests. The Old Madam scolds Li Hao for betraying the family, while Li Hao retorts, accusing Li Xuan of being the real menace.
