Ke Menglan knows very well that Yun Xiang is unconventional in his swordsmanship. The game this time is extremely dangerous, and the outcome is still unknown. In fact, Tang Xiao has arranged many spies in the Liansheng Lane. Therefore, Su Mingyu reminded Ke Menglan to be cautious for the next three days. The two sides are competing in business operations, equivalent to Yun Xiang handing over all his property and life to her.

After some greetings, Su Mingyu got up to say goodbye. Ke Menglan noticed that Tian Hu's behavior has been suspicious recently and deliberately suggested that she share a room with her, but was refused by Tian Hu. That night, Tian Hu sneaked out of Liansheng Lane, and Ke Menglan followed her and saw her enter Tang Xiao's mansion alone.

In order to make Jin Biao his own, Tang Xiao specifically brought Tian Hu to the dungeon. Jin Biao questioned Tian Hu why she treated Ke Menglan, who was like a sister, like this. Tang Xiao mocked that Ke Menglan was the only traitor in their circle, while Tian Hu was only affected by the obsession powder, which caused her to behave that way.

Tian Hu reported to Tang Xiao that Yun Xiang was able to successfully solve the problem because he mixed iron powder into the ink today, so no matter what word he wrote, it would be revealed. Tang Xiao was angry when he heard this and ordered Tian Hu to slap Jin Biao, but Tian Hu was reluctant to do so due to her subconscious feelings for him.

In front of Jin Biao, Tang Xiao slowly undressed Tian Hu, wanting to watch them perform in the act of love. Sure enough, Jin Biao panicked at the sight and begged Tang Xiao to stop. In the end, he had no choice but to knock Tian Hu unconscious with his own head and vowed to kill Tang Xiao himself.

Before the final game began, Yun Xiang entrusted three silk bags to Shu Yanan and instructed her to open them in front of Ke Menglan and Su Mingyu. After everything was arranged, Yun Xiang prepared to leave Liansheng Lane through the back window on the second floor. However, he was afraid of heights and thought he might get hurt if he jumped. Unexpectedly, Shu Yanan effortlessly held him in her arms.

Just as Yun Xiang was admiring Shu Yanan's small body's strength, a night watchman suddenly passed by, frightening him. He quickly broke free from Shu Yanan's embrace, trying to appear less embarrassed. Shu Yanan suppressed her laughter until the night watchman was gone, and then burst out laughing while watching Yun Xiang cover his face in embarrassment.

Later, Yun Xiang went to see Mo Bufan in person and had his shadow protect him. Mo Bufan reminded Yun Xiang to be wary of the people around him, and Yun Xiang naturally understood his meaning. Apparently, he also suspected Shu Yanan's background. In fact, Mo Bufan's suspicions were well-founded. It was hard not to be suspicious of a young girl who could easily break Qi Qi's poison.

According to Yun Xiang's instructions, Shu Yanan and Su Mingyu offered a 10% rebate on the day of the gambling competition to attract many customers. Although this attracted many people, Tang Xiao was not to be outdone. He ordered the casino to recruit heavily and even caused chaos in the Liansheng neighborhood. In a short time, several customers left one after another, which had a significant effect. After talking to Ke Menglan, Shu Yanan directly removed Tang Xiao's planted customers and continued to increase the rebate, but Tang Xiao still kept up.

At the end of the first day of gambling, Tang Xiao won through strategy, and everyone was disappointed with the profit calculation. Ke Menglan bluntly stated that falsifying the accounts was not an option, and they still needed to rely on intelligence to win. Shu Yanan had no choice but to open the first letter from Yun Xiang. Following Yun Xiang's instructions, she opened an outside betting platform in the Liansheng neighborhood, starting from small odds and increasing to seven times the payout.

In order to defeat Yun Xiang, Tang Xiao copied all of his gambling establishments, and it became very lively. Su Huairou saw that Yun Xiang had started to deal with Tang Xiao and, recalling the past with the Luo family, worried that Yun Xiang's next move would be to target the Su family, so she began to discuss countermeasures with Qian Rong. Qian Rong said that if Tang Xiao won, he would personally take care of the matter, even if it meant breaking his promise. Mo Bufan finally won a game against Yun Xiang in chess, and Yun Xiang explained the true essence of the game.

Tianhu continued to report on the situation in Liansheng Fang to Tang Xiao, and Meizhu felt sympathy for Tianhu and gave her the necklace she was wearing to use as an antidote. Tang Xiao had already realized what was going on without being explicitly told, and upon hearing that Ke Menglan was advising Shu Yanan, he immediately had Tianhu go back to warn Ke Menglan not to forget her humble background and to quickly find out if Yun Xiang was in Liansheng Fang.
