Zuo Shuangtao's attempt to stop was futile. She helplessly watched Chen Jiaping getting farther from the ground, her face becoming increasingly distressed due to suffocation. He was forced to confess, and Luo Guanqun immediately broke the rope. Chen Jiaping kept his life but didn't admit to being an undercover agent. Instead, he discovered that the person claiming to be Fang Hongnan was actually Shan Xia Wufu. Using his keen observation skills, Chen Jiaping noticed many details, such as Fang Hongnan's habit of using his right hand and the large gap between his toes caused by wearing Japanese clogs. Confirming that he was Shan Xia Wufu, not the traitor Fang Hongnan, Chen Jiaping exposed Shan Xia Wufu's identity. Since there was no evidence that Chen Jiaping was an undercover agent, and considering Chen Jiaping's intelligence, he was temporarily spared.

Afterwards, Zuo Shuangtao, filled with remorse, gently tended to the bruises on Chen Jiaping's neck, not holding back. Luo Guanqun, who hadn't assisted Chen Jiaping earlier, apologized and dismissed Zuo Shuangtao, then privately informed Chen Jiaping that after Fang Hongnan was poisoned, he told Shan Xia that he had a list of undercover Communist Party members and it was stored in the safe at Lumié Bank in the French Concession. He wanted Chen Jiaping to retrieve it before Zhao An got hold of it, round up the undercover agents, and have Luo Guanqun fabricate false intelligence to frame Zhao An, allowing them to take credit. Zhao An started realizing that Luo Guanqun had such a capable person under him, regretting underestimating Chen Jiaping before. Zhao An ordered his subordinates to obtain leverage over the manager of Lumié Bank by any means necessary.

Chen Jiaping went to the Rain Ink Art Shop to report to Lao Lu. As for the relationship between him and Zuo Shuangtao, Chen Jiaping would find a way to end it, whether superficially or internally; it no longer mattered at this point. Zuo Shuangtao suspected that the secret letter was still with Shan Xia Wufu, but it was impossible to retrieve it now. However, if they evacuated, the deaths of Xiao Hu and Da Xuan would be in vain. Zuo Shuangtao wrote a letter, inadvertently recalling Chen Jiaping, who had waited anxiously for letters in the past, feeling a bitter pang in her heart.

The next day, Zuo Shuangtao contacted A Kun, suspecting that the button might be crucial to Shan Xia Wufu. A Kun didn't fully understand, questioning the importance of carrying out the mission now when the military intelligence was accumulating wealth, and only Zuo Shuangtao considered the task so vital.

Qian Xiucai stopped Zuo Shuangtao from entering, but Da Mashao took the initiative to vouch for her and led her into Taihe Bank. Zuo Shuangtao overheard that Chen Jiaping hadn't signed the paperwork for Er Badao because entering the French Concession now required many requirements and procedures, and Er Badao needed to follow the rules; otherwise, Chen Jiaping couldn't sign for him. While eavesdropping on Er Badao's conversation with Zhao An, Zuo Shuangtao accidentally made a noise and almost got discovered. She suddenly realized that the letter she wrote for Chen Jiaping was missing from her bag and hurriedly went to discuss it with him. In a short time, Chen Jiaping devised a meticulous plan, using Lu Fangfang to stage a lovers' quarrel, making it appear natural for her to retrieve the letter. Luo Guanqun discovered that his wife had an affair with Zhao An and felt intense jealousy.

Da Mashao earnestly told Luo Guanqun about the situation, but what the file contained was not the letter at all. After explaining the process, Luo Guanqun realized that the letter had been swapped when Da Mashao went to the bathroom. At this moment, Zuo Shuangtao and Chen Jiaping caused a commotion in the trading company due to a heated argument staged by Lu Fangfang. In the midst of the argument, it was revealed that Zuo Shuangtao retrieved the letter because of disappointment in Chen Jiaping. Zuo Shuangtao suggested a breakup, and Luo Guanqun pushed Chen Jiaping out to apologize to her. The two agreed on a consistent story, and they maintained a standoffish relationship. Chen Jiaping received the form handed over by Er Badao and took leave to get it stamped at the Japanese Garrison Headquarters.
