Gong Zhanxiao wants to prepare a birthday gift for his father-in-law and asks his wife Sang Ning to take a note to the World Bank to pick it out, but Sang Ning doesn't believe him and thinks he's playing a dangerous joke.

Facing a barrage of humiliation from her second sister, brother-in-law, and father, Sang Ning fiercely defends her husband, claiming they are not poor but simply have their funds tied up in projects.
