Sisterhood – Xiao Yan, Dai Xiangyu

On a sunny day after the rain, a large ship docked at the pier. Ouyang Tianqing and her sisters, who had traveled across the sea from Sanshui, were full of anticipation for the future of Singapore. At the same time, Bai Wei, who was hired as a tutor by the Lu family, and Lu Xueting, the third young master of the Lu family, met because of a box of film. He Xiaochan, who had sneaked onto the ship to follow her fellow townspeople, Tianqing, hid in the cabin because she didn't have a ticket. After disembarking, Xiaochan encountered trouble from Kuang Haisheng, a local gangster in Singapore, but luckily Tianqing and Bai Wei helped and managed to repel Kuang Haisheng. Through this incident, Kuang Haisheng developed a fondness for the cheerful and heroic Tianqing.

On this day, coinciding with the parade in Singapore, Lu Xueqiao, the second young master of the Lu family, saw the procession and was filled with anger. It turned out that many years ago, the eldest young master of the Lu family, Lu Xuelin, had gone missing under mysterious circumstances, and rumors spread that he was harmed by his stepmother, Nan Lan. Nan Lan's family had a prominent reputation in Singapore and she, known as the "Daytime Goddess," held a prestigious status. After leaving the Lu family, Nan Lan established the Goddess Hotel, which became a gathering place for the upper class in Singapore.

Tianqing and Xiaochan envisioned their future on the rooftop. Xiaochan hoped to marry a good man to reduce her hardships, while Tianqing wanted to earn money through her own efforts to build a house for her father. Although they had different life plans, they were determined to work together. Bai Wei didn't expect that the handsome young man she encountered on the ship was Lu Xueting, the third young master of the Lu family. This made Jin Biyun's sister, Jin Bihua, jealous as she realized that Bai Wei might be her potential rival, so she wanted to drive Bai Wei away. At this moment, the sound of gongs rang out as the procession of the Daytime Goddess passed by the Lu residence. Lu Xueqiao ordered his servant to drive them away with a stick, but he was stopped by Nan Lan's gunshot. Bai Wei caught a glimpse of the elegance of the Daytime Goddess, and she became curious about Nan Lan's background.

The next day, Tianqing, Xiaochan, and the others went to work at the construction site under Sister Ling's guidance, starting their life as brick carriers wearing red headbands. The construction site was a mix of male and female workers, and the male workers made inappropriate remarks towards the newcomers with red headbands. The foreman, Qiang Ge, was also picky about Tianqing and the other newbies. On the other side, Lu Zhan Yuan, the youngest master of the Lu family, was pleased with the new female teacher, Bai Wei. However, Jin Bihua constantly urged Jin Biyun to drive Bai Wei away, but Jin Biyun wanted to impress the elderly lady with her son's academic performance. Lu Xueqiao showed displeasure towards Jin Biyun's steward, causing Jin Biyun to swallow her anger.

Tianqing received a warning from the Seventh Sister for helping Xiaochan carry sand and lime. At night, Xiaochan couldn't cope with the hardships of the work and complained to Tianqing, saying that she should have just gotten married if she had known it would be like this. Tianqing advised Xiaochan to strive for everything through her own efforts. Yingjie bought cured meat to treat the newly arrived sisters, and Tianqing and Xiaochan were grateful for the meat after a tiring day. Qiang Ge added the task of building toilets and vented his dissatisfaction on Xiaochan and Tianqing, deliberately adding extra material to their sand buckets. Xiaochan was in unbearable agony. The construction site was divided into two factions, the red headbands and the blue headbands, each with their own activities and territories.

On this day, both teams were busy working with great enthusiasm. Hongtoujin's Xiaocui accidentally took the wrong stairs belonging to the Lantoujin, which sparked a conflict between the red and blue headbands. Yingjie, from the red headbands, tried to mediate and ended up accidentally stepping on a nail, causing her to bleed profusely. Tianqing informed Yu Shixiang about the situation, and he realized the seriousness of it, instructing everyone to urgently take Yingjie to the hospital. Yingjie didn't want to spend money on going to the hospital, so she only applied a healing ointment to her wound. Tianqing was very worried about her and took the initiative to find the Seventh Sister, hoping she would be responsible for Yingjie's medical expenses. However, the Seventh Sister kicked her out instead.

Before her death, Sister Ying fulfilled her last wish with the help of Tianqing and the Seventh Sister. She finally met the male teacher she had secretly loved all her life, even though he didn't recognize her anymore. After Sister Ying passed away, the Seventh Sister, filled with anger, led the sisters of the red headbands to confront the blue headbands, seeking revenge for Sister Ying. To prevent the red headbands from suffering the same fate as Sister Ying, Tianqing was inspired by an old man's rubber shoe soles and shared the idea of using old tires as shoe soles with Yu Shixiang. Yu Shixiang greatly appreciated Tianqing's idea and wanted to appoint her as the leader of the female workers. However, Tianqing humbly declined his offer, stating that she still lacked experience.

On the construction site, as the red and blue headbands confronted each other, and it seemed like a fight was about to break out, Tianqing intervened just in time to stop them. However, her sisters harbored resentment towards her. Feeling ostracized, Tianqing decided to seek a new path. After calm reflection, the Seventh Sister agreed with Tianqing's approach and instructed her fellow red headbands not to trouble Tianqing. Haisheng came to the construction site to find Tianqing, and after a long time apart, he was extremely excited. He invited Tianqing to have roast goose and kept pestering her with endless conversation. Tianqing couldn't stand his presence and sought Qiang Ge's help to drive Haisheng away. Unexpectedly, Qiang Ge, who usually bossed around the red headbands, behaved like a little brother in front of Haisheng. Sister Ling approached Yu Shixiang, intending to drive Haisheng away. However, as soon as Yu Shixiang saw Haisheng, he turned and walked away as if he had done something wrong.

Bai Wei faced targeted attacks from Jin Bihua in the Lu family, but fortunately, she won the favor of the Lu family by serving a bowl of Shaoxing chicken congee. The old lady had a sense of familiarity with her, while Jin Bihua became even more frustrated. Lu Xueting's repeated attempts to show goodwill to Bai Wei were met with indifference, but she didn't mind. Bai Wei casually inquired about Nan Lan and Lu Xuelin from Xueting and, in return, Xueting invited her to the Goddess Hotel for coffee.

Inside the magnificent Goddess Hotel, guests filled the halls, toasting and mingling, their gazes fixed on the hotel's owner, Nan Lan. Nan Lan had bought 65% of the shares of the Singapore Building from Richard, with the remaining 35% belonging to Lu Xueqiao. The building happened to be the one the red headbands, including Tianqing, were tirelessly working on day and night. As the major shareholder of the building, Nan Lan's first decision was to halt construction, intending to bankrupt the Lu family. Unaware of the situation, Lu Xueqiao was still busy flirting with the maids at home. After receiving a secret message from Richard, infuriated Lu Xueqiao sought Lin Longqing's help and stole Jin Biyun's jewelry to give to Lin Longqing, asking him to set the building on fire to frighten Nan Lan.

The red headbands were filled with worry and despair as they lost their jobs. Some of them were causing a commotion, planning to leave and find new work, which embarrassed Seventh Sister. Tianqing made every effort to dissuade everyone from acting impulsively and encouraged them to think of solutions for their livelihoods. Tianqing took the initiative to volunteer to personally seek out Nan Lan and plead with her not to halt the construction.

Meanwhile, Hendeli and Mr. Li happened to meet at a bar and, after being provoked by the pirate Zheng Qian, the three of them decided to rob the Goddess Hotel during the ball. Tianqing went alone to the Goddess Hotel, and Xiaochan, feeling uneasy, secretly followed her, but Tianqing discovered her. The two good sisters walked together, chatting and laughing, on their way to the Goddess Hotel in the night of Xingzhou.

On the other side, Jin Biyun used indirect methods to probe Bai Wei, but Bai Wei expressed that she was only trying to keep her job and stated that she had no romantic interest in Lu Xueting. Lu Xueting invited Bai Wei to accompany him to the Goddess Hotel, and Bai Wei gladly accepted, hoping to take this opportunity to meet Nan Lan.

After Bai Wei left, Jin Biyun and Jin Bihua took advantage of the situation to enter Bai Wei's room and search her belongings. They discovered a notebook containing various information about the Lu family, arousing suspicion in Jin Biyun. On the other hand, Old Lady Lu Chen Shi mentioned to Huang Mama that Bai Wei resembled someone from her past.

Inside the Goddess Hotel, Nan Lan invited Lu Xueting to dance, while Bai Wei secretly observed Nan Lan's every move.

The Goddess Hotel was in chaos, and Lu Xueting was injured. Nan Lan, for the safety of everyone, volunteered to go with Zheng Qian. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Ping, one of the guests, was attracted by Zheng Qian's masculine charm and had a sudden idea of experiencing the life of a pirate with him... Mr. Ping, in order to save his wife from Henry's gunshot, amidst the chaos, suddenly raised his gun and shot down the chandelier. Taking advantage of the confusion, Nan Lan, along with Tianqing, Xiaochan, and Baiwei, left through a secret door and headed to the old mansion. Together, they managed to keep Zheng Qian outside the mansion gate. At the boundary between the old mansion and the Goddess Hotel, Kuang Haisheng and Ajiu were circling the outside of the house, pouring gasoline, while the four people hiding inside the old mansion had no idea. Inside the house, Baiwei saw Nan Lan's wedding photo and recognized Lu Xueling in the group photo. Nan Lan told Baiwei that she did not kill her own husband and noticed Baiwei's abnormal behavior. At this moment, thick smoke filled the old mansion, and Kuang Haisheng, who had been hesitant about setting fire, now felt guilty as flames raged. The four people inside the house tried various methods but couldn't escape. Kuang Haisheng faintly heard Tianqing's voice and bravely rushed into the sea of fire to rescue her. In the end, Kuang Haisheng carried the unconscious Tianqing out.

Jin Biyun learned that Lu Xueting was hospitalized and rushed to visit. She encountered Lin Longjiao, who also came to see Kuang Haisheng. After a quarrel, the two hot-tempered women unexpectedly became good friends. Lu Chenshi went to the hospital to visit Lu Xueting and ran into Nan Lan, who was preparing to be discharged. The reunion of enemies intensified their jealousy. Back at the Lu mansion, Baiwei cut open Nan Lan's wedding photo that was saved from the fire. Jin Biyun questioned Baiwei about the notebook incident. Baiwei claimed that she came to the Lu family alone and wanted to uncover the secrets of the household, using the old lady's favoritism towards her to silence Jin Biyun. Yu Shixiang brought flowers to the hospital to visit Tianqing. Seeing the flowers, Tianqing remembered how Yu Shixiang had taken care of her in the past and felt somewhat shy. Yu Shixiang stated that today's visit was also a farewell because he planned to leave Singapore due to the suspension of the project. Kind-hearted Tianqing convinced Yu Shixiang to stay as they needed his help with the design and planning of Nan Lan's old mansion. Lu Chenshi blamed Lu Xueqiao for not protecting Lu Xueting and couldn't help but feel deep sorrow when she remembered that her eldest son, Lu Xueling, was still missing. Jin Biyun silently observed everything without uttering a word. After the incident at Nan Lan's old mansion, Jin Biyun suspected that it was Lu Xueqiao's idea. She pretended to advise Lu Xueqiao to surrender to Nan Lan and let Nan Lan buy out the remaining 35% of the shares as a timely stop-loss measure. Knowing that Nan Lan wouldn't buy into it, Lu Xueqiao sweet-talked Jin Biyun into pleading with Nan Lan on his behalf.
