Episode 3

Outside, Ruth's father warns that anyone who opens the door for her will be thrown out with her. Mu Tangxue puts on a sisterly farewell, then drops the mask — telling Ruth that with their grandmother gone, she should be the only daughter in this world, and that Ruth and the old woman both deserve to disappear. Ruth's aunt arrives and mentions a cramped rental. Then Sheng Xiao appears and tells Ruth he's taking her home. The aunt protests, asking where he thinks he's taking her. He doesn't explain. He simply leads Ruth away from the family that just discarded her.

Episode 4

Ruth breaks down. She has no grandmother, no home, nothing left — and grief turns to rage as she swears she'll go back and make them pay for what happened. Sheng Xiao tells her to calm down, but she can't hear it yet. She repeats that she has nothing, that she couldn't save the one person she loved. The loss swallows her whole. For the first time since she was disowned, someone is standing beside Ruth rather than pointing a finger at her.

Episode 5

Someone has been shut in the bathroom for two hours. When he finally comes out, he tells Ruth a hard truth: her grandmother is gone whether she accepts it or not, and if he were her, he would find whoever touched the old woman and crush them. He offers her a chance — come with me. Ruth fires back, asking why he'd keep his enemy's daughter close at all. His answer is unsettling: because it's interesting. Before she can decide, her aunt arrives looking for her. Ruth is left weighing a dangerous alliance against a family that already threw her away.

Episode 6

Ruth's aunt reveals the real reason she came: the grandmother left Ruth her most valuable land, with a notarized will and a powerful witness. The plot sits downtown and is worth over three billion. Ruth's father has always wanted it — and the Mu family doesn't even know the will exists yet. The aunt warns that they'll never let the land go, and asks how a girl like Ruth can possibly protect it. Ruth's answer is Sheng Xiao. The aunt protests that the two families are enemies. But Ruth insists that only by staying with him can she keep what her grandmother left her.

Episode 7

Ruth's father plots with Mu Tangxue: if he claims the will alone, his brothers will get suspicious, so Tangxue should inherit the land first, then hand it to him. A grand birthday banquet will make the transfer public and leave the brothers with nothing to say. Tangxue plays the dutiful granddaughter, asking whether it's too soon after the funeral. Ruth's father brushes it off — the dead don't matter more than the living. Meanwhile, Ruth shows up at Sheng Xiao's hotel room for a bandage change, and their bickering over his trousers turns into a wary, charged truce.

Episode 8

Ruth tends Sheng Xiao's wound while he teases her about staring at the carpet instead of his injury. He tells her she can come by whenever she likes — and if she ever changes her mind about moving in, the offer stands. Ruth says that one day she'll be as strong as he is. Then the news lands: her father is throwing Mu Tangxue a lavish birthday banquet, barely after the grandmother's death. Ruth is stunned that they'd celebrate so soon. The aunt warns her that storming over there won't change anything — but Ruth isn't listening.

Episode 9

The aunt explains the banquet's real purpose: Ruth's father intends to swallow the grandmother's priceless land. Ruth admits the truth — the land was left to her. She tells Sheng Xiao directly, and he asks if she isn't afraid he'll steal it. She says he isn't that kind of man. He grants her permission to make a scene: anyone connected to Sheng Xiao can raise hell if they want. Then Ruth crashes the party, calling out the family for feasting while the grandmother has barely been buried. Their response is immediate and cruel — nobody here is family anymore. Get out.

Episode 10

At the banquet, Mu Tangxue basks in the spotlight, thanking guests for making her the happiest person alive. Relatives shower her with a limited-edition gift, and her father declares her the Mu family's most precious jewel — worthy of the best of everything. He announces that because Tangxue is so filial, her grandmother left her the priceless plot of land, the same property business titans are fighting over. Tangxue plays humble, saying she's only honoring her grandmother. Then Ruth cuts through the applause with one sharp question: if Tangxue is so devoted, why was there no funeral for the grandmother?

Watch how Ruth turns a stolen inheritance and a family's cruelty into her first real strike — keep going, it only gets sharper from here.
