Mu Xiao was in a car accident but was fortunately rushed to the hospital in time. Although she sustained severe injuries, her condition was stabilized. However, it was unclear whether this was an accident or a deliberate act of harm. When Ning Yue received the news, she immediately rushed to the hospital. When Ning Yue returned home, she was shocked to find Hu Cheng there. She had not expected to avoid him for long.

Using Hu Ziyuan as leverage, Hu Cheng forced Ning Yue to return home. To avoid causing a scene in front of their son, Ning Yue reluctantly went with him. Once back, Hu Cheng pressured Ning Yue to resign from her job, and she agreed. Later, Ning Yue went to Qin Can and asked him to have the company sue her. She believed this was the only way to save herself. Understanding that Ning Yue was in trouble, Qin Can agreed.

When Hu Cheng learned about Ning Yue being sued by the company, he was furious, believing she did it on purpose. Ning Yue explained that she had been out of the workforce for many years and had forgotten much of her professional knowledge. She had only agreed to the high compensation terms so she could have a job. Now, she presented Hu Cheng with three choices: divorce her, pay the compensation for her, or let her return to work.

Realizing that Ning Yue wasn’t giving up, Hu Cheng decided to accompany her to the company to discuss terminating the contract. Ning Yue agreed, as she had prepared everything in advance. She was certain Hu Cheng would be in for a surprise once he showed up. When Luo Yating walked into the meeting room, Hu Cheng froze. He never expected Luo Yating to be the Vice President of Zhongzhi.

Hu Cheng firmly stated that Ning Yue’s resignation was non-negotiable, but they would not pay any compensation. As Hu Cheng tried to drag Ning Yue away, Luo Yating intervened, saying they would definitely receive a court notice. In front of Luo Yating, Hu Cheng seemed deflated, unable to confront her. Luo Yating warned him that between the two of them, she had always had the final say—both in the past and now.

Although the contract was harsh, it was a mutual agreement. As long as Ning Yue wanted to resign, the contract terms couldn’t be avoided. Ning Yue deliberately provoked Hu Cheng, rubbing salt into his wounds by mentioning his deep grudge with Luo Yating. Only then did Hu Cheng realize that Ning Yue had long been aware of his past with Luo Yating and had orchestrated everything intentionally. When Ning Yue attempted to leave, Hu Cheng blocked her path.

Ning Yue told him that the reason she and Luo Yating joined forces was because Luo Yating symbolized his humiliation, proving his failures and incompetence. In a fit of rage, Hu Cheng pushed Ning Yue. She lost her balance and crashed into the glass in the office, shattering it. The police arrived to investigate, and Pan Jie volunteered as a witness, stating that Hu Cheng had deliberately harmed Ning Yue. Fortunately, Ning Yue only suffered external injuries.

After receiving treatment at the hospital, she went home to rest. Hu Cheng, however, was taken to the police station for questioning. The incident deeply unsettled Luo Yating. She realized that if she hadn’t divorced Hu Cheng back then, she might have been the one lying on the broken glass today. She called Lao Mo to keep her company and confided in him about her tragic marriage from years ago. She admitted that an unhappy marriage hurts both parties.

Lao Mo, seeing her sorrow, comforted her with a hug. As the meeting room glass was being replaced, Qin Can spoke with the engineering team and discovered that Ning Yue had deliberately chosen this meeting room, knowing the glass had a crack and was unsafe. This made Qin Can realize that Ning Yue had meticulously planned every step to escape Hu Cheng. Still, Qin Can sympathized with Ning Yue. He understood that she had no other choice. Facing someone as controlling as Hu Cheng, she could only counter his madness with an even bolder approach.
