Tianhu who was given orders came to knock on Yun Xiang's door while holding a bowl of porridge, but luckily Shu Yanan appeared in time to stop him and scolded him for his lack of manners. Ke Menglan came to plead for Tianhu and brought her to her own room. She asked why Tianhu had become like this, but unexpectedly Tianhu cursed Ke Menglan as a lowly person who goes back on their word, violating Tang Xiao's orders. When this was revealed, Ke Menglan was shocked and unexpectedly discovered that Tianhu's body was covered in purple veins due to severe poisoning.

It was precisely because of Tianhu's suffering that Ke Menglan wanted to regain the antidote and give her innocence to her beloved before she devoted herself to Tang Xiao. On the other hand, Su Mingyu dreamed of the scene of his first encounter with Ke Menglan, watching her graceful dancing and beautiful appearance, and couldn't help but yearn for her.

The knocking on the door woke Su Mingyu up from his dream, and he opened the door to find Ke Menglan, who was beautifully dressed. He was stunned for a moment. Ke Menglan personally came to invite Su Mingyu to drink, and the combination of fine wine and beautiful women was intoxicating. Su Mingyu watched as Ke Menglan drunkenly approached him and proposed to offer herself to him that night. He immediately pushed her away and emphasized that he wanted to marry her grandly and would not take advantage of her in her vulnerable state.

Ke Menglan heard this and burst into tears, quietly leaving. Su Mingyu sensed that something was amiss and felt that the situation was strange. He took the initiative to discuss countermeasures with Shu Yanan. On the other side, Tianhu reported that Ke Menglan was preparing to bring down Yun Xiang by falsifying accounts, which Tang Xiao found interesting.

After Su Mingyu finished talking with Shu Yanan, they found out that Yun Xiang was not at Liansheng Lane, and that Ke Menglan was also under Tang Xiao's control. Later, they went to find Ke Menglan and coincidentally caught her falsifying accounts. Ke Menglan had to reveal the truth about Tianhu being poisoned. Under the control of Tang Xiao's drugs, Tianhu was in a critical condition. Su Mingyu was furious and immediately stormed out to hold Tang Xiao accountable.

Shu Yanan quickly stopped Su Mingyu and analyzed the current situation for him, calming his impulsive behavior and persuading him to return to their room. Although Shu Yanan recognized Shixin powder, she didn't have the antidote and couldn't make it in a short time. The best she could do was to prepare a medicine to slow down the poison's effect.

Tang Xiao thought Su Mingyu would come to hold him accountable that night, so he invited the Nan Du Governor to play cards and deliberately lost a lot of silver to him. Tang Xiao waited for a long time until his subordinates reported that Su Mingyu had been persuaded by Shu Yanan to return, which made him angry and disappointed that he had wasted his silver for nothing.

Due to Ke Menglan's situation, Su Mingyu hated Tang Xiao to the bone. He immediately raised the odds to one to three, surprising everyone. They thought Liansheng Lane would definitely suffer a huge loss at this speed, but Su Mingyu reassured them not to worry because the Su family would take care of it. The Su family could afford this amount of money.

The scouts sent by Tang Xiao came to report the news at any time. When they heard about the preferential policies of Liansheng Lane, they also followed Yun Xiang's odds and used the same preferential policies to attract gamblers. Little did they know that Yun Xiang and Mo Bufan had been manipulating things behind the scenes, waiting for them to take this step. Yun Xiang knew that Ke Menglan was being coerced by Tang Xiao, but he deliberately let Su Mingyu know about it, so that he could completely break with Tang Xiao.

In the blink of an eye, the three-day deadline had arrived, and Liansheng Lane had made a lot of efforts, but still could not reach Tang Xiao's profit target. During this time, Ke Menglan had been carefully taking care of Tian Hu, personally feeding him, and Su Mingyu had seen that she had not rested properly for many days, so he urged her to eat something first. As for her betrayal of Liansheng Lane, he did not pay too much attention to it, but felt that he did not have enough ability to protect her.

As Liansheng Lane closed its books, the Tang family began to prepare for the closure as well, and the outcome was clear. Mo Bufan sent a message to Shu Yanan, asking her to quickly rescue Jin Biao during this opportunity. At a critical moment, a mysterious person suddenly wanted to place a large bet to stop the Tang family from closing the books, and this person was none other than Yun Xiang from Liansheng Lane. Yun Xiang turned to face Tang Xiao and said that as a leader in the industry, he naturally understood that he could continue to place bets even if the sign was not removed, and he was unlikely to violate such rules. The others all agreed when they heard this.
