At the Lu family's dinner, Lu Yunzheng, to protect his marriage with Xu Zhuoning, cleverly uses his patent shares, which could financially support his aunt Lu Shuying, as leverage. This successfully forces his aunt, who advocated for their divorce, to compromise. However, the Lu family matriarch is cold towards her granddaughter-in-law Xu Zhuoning, showing favoritism towards Lu Yunzheng's junior fellow apprentice, Chen Ying, and lets her stay at their home. Subsequently, Chen Ying openly provokes Xu Zhuoning by the poolside, claiming to be Lu Yunzheng's true love, and splashes water on Xu Zhuoning. Xu Zhuoning, undeterred, retaliates forcefully, pushing Chen Ying into the water. Just as the conflict escalates, Lu Yunzheng, the Lu matriarch, and others arrive at the scene.
