Shan Shuangshuang handed over her hand-drawn jade stone designs to her younger sister, Shan Dandan. With these designs, many leftover jade scraps from the Pei family could now be put to good use, significantly increasing the family's income and elevating Shan Dandan's status within the Pei household. This made Shan Dandan very happy. While they were discussing, Tan Qinghe, despite being an artist, also owned a spice shop and invited them to visit.
Tan Qinghe introduced his spices to the two sisters. Since the City Lord was currently promoting spices, Tan Qinghe saw an opportunity to increase his income and decided to join in. As night fell and Shan Dandan hadn't returned home yet, Pei Pei grew extremely anxious and went out to search for her. Meanwhile, Su Yu, worried about Shan Shuangshuang, went to a teahouse to look for her.
Coincidentally, Pei Pei and Su Yu crossed paths, both looking for the two sisters from the Shan family. However, their meeting turned confrontational as they found each other disagreeable. The teahouse owner, exasperated, quickly explained that the sisters had already left for Tan Qinghe's studio. Pei Pei and Su Yu hurriedly went to search for them. Pei Pei and Su Yu found Shan Dandan and Shan Shuangshuang at Tan Qinghe's studio not far from where they were searching.
However, the conversation between the sisters and Tan Qinghe seemed ambiguous, making Pei Pei and Su Yu uncomfortable but hesitant to interrupt. Back home, Pei Pei criticized Shan Dandan for her behavior, but she found him unreasonable. Despite this, she shared her idea of incorporating Tan Qinghe's spices into jade with Pei Pei. However, Pei Pei disagreed with the plan. When Shan Dandan saw Pei Pei's disapproval, she decided to proceed on her own.
After returning home, Shan Shuangshuang was determined to uncover the secret behind the loss of the Phoenix Crown. She believed pushing the Pei family to a corner might reveal its whereabouts. At this moment, Su Yu approached her, expressing dissatisfaction. However, Shan Shuangshuang felt Su Yu had no reason to be angry, considering her chance encounter with Tan Qinghe. She also clarified that her relationship with Su Yu was purely master and servant.
Su Yu was left speechless by her response. Shan Shuangshuang reported Manager Wang's earlier proposal to Su Yu, suggesting they start the business of broken jade, intending to compete with the Pei family until they had no choice but to give up. Despite his anger, Su Yu agreed to Shan Shuangshuang's proposal. To please Shan Dandan, Pei Pei specially prepared peach pastries and sent them over. At that moment, Tan Qinghe arrived, prompting Shan Dandan to greet him immediately.
Concerned about Shan Dandan growing closer to Tan Qinghe, Pei Pei quickly followed. Unexpectedly, Tan Qinghe was looking for Madam Pei to discuss their plan to incorporate spices into jade, and Madam Pei supported the idea, finding Shan Dandan's thoughts very comprehensive. Pei Pei objected strongly when he went out, adamant against their plan. Despite losing the Jade Competition, he refused to resort to such tricks, leading to a heated argument between them.
Just then, someone reported that the City Lord wanted to see them. Upon arriving at the City Lord's mansion, Pei Pei found Su Yu already there. The City Lord showed them jade pieces infused with spices. With many cities now embracing spice-infused jade, this posed a significant threat to their city. Hence, both families rushed back to improve their jade pieces.
Back home, Shan Dandan mocked Pei Pei, who had initially opposed but was now being pressured by the City Lord to proceed. However, Pei Pei insisted on doing better than anyone else. Shan Dandan comforted Pei Pei with a kiss, offering him some encouragement. Manager Wang wanted Shan Shuangshuang to discuss business collaboration with Tan Xiangge's Tan Qinghe, the largest supplier. However, Su Yu was jealous and reluctant to let Shan Shuangshuang handle it, deciding to approach Tan Qinghe himself.
The next day, Su Yu met Pei Pei at Tan Xiangge's to discuss collaboration. They continued their verbal sparring, each refusing to back down. Meanwhile, Shan Dandan waited downstairs for Pei Pei, who boasted about someone waiting for him, leaving Su Yu feeling somewhat dejected as Shan Shuangshuang had yet to accept his feelings, leaving him lonely and isolated. Pei Pei returned with Tan Qinghe's spices and discussed with Shan Dandan how to incorporate them more effectively.
After Su Yu returned home, he handed the spices over to Shan Shuangshuang, seeking her advice. Both families were busy with this new project. Shan Dandan believed limestone was the best addition for spice-infused jade, while Pei Pei thought dolomite was more suitable. They quickly went to discuss this with Manager Wang. To their surprise, they found out that the business of carving stones was being squeezed out by the Su family after losing the Jade Competition.
Everyone's time and energy were now devoted to this, but sales were still suffering, making their business even worse. Shan Dandan went to her sister to ask why Su Yu had started to take away the business of broken jade. Shan Shuangshuang claimed she knew nothing about it. Shan Dandan had to come up with a better way to save the Qipei Pavilion.
