In the latest episode, Bai Xingmeng orchestrates a cunning plan, leading to a series of unexpected events. Xu Jun seeks a pre-trial settlement, but Qian Heng rejects the proposed compensation, foreseeing the potential value increase of Xu Jun’s company upon listing. Cheng Yao, Qian Heng’s colleague, analyzes Bai Xingmeng’s motives and struggles with personal connections in the legal field.
Cheng Xi’s friend entrusts Cheng Yao with a puppy, much to Qian Heng’s displeasure. Despite Qian Heng’s resistance to having pets, Cheng Yao persuades him to let the puppy stay temporarily. Meanwhile, Qian Heng is away on a business trip, leaving Cheng Yao to handle Bai Xingmeng’s emotional turmoil. Bai Xingmeng, claiming threats and coercion from Xu Jun, seeks Cheng Yao’s assistance in a non-procedural reconciliation.
Against the protocols, Cheng Yao reluctantly agrees to help Bai Xingmeng. However, the situation takes a dark turn when news of Xu Jun’s alleged suicide surfaces, blaming the divorce proceedings and Bai Xingmeng for his downfall.

Just as Cheng Yao feels defeated, Qian Heng intervenes, warning Deng Ming against further actions.
Cheng Yao admits her mistake to Qian Heng, who guides her to analyze the case’s flaws and understand the importance of maintaining professional boundaries. In gratitude, Cheng Yao cooks a seafood feast for Qian Heng, who requests her to write a self-reflection on the errors made in the case.
The episode unfolds with unexpected twists, testing the characters’ relationships and pushing Cheng Yao to reassess her approach to her work.
