Before Ding Ming came to see Peter, he sensed something was wrong, so he informed Shen Chen that if he didn’t answer his calls, Shen should contact Zhao Shengnan to sabotage the company’s core business secrets. As expected, Zhao Shengnan couldn’t reach Ding Ming. Knowing that Ding Ming’s side had encountered problems, she found an excuse to dismiss the information department staff and prepared to implant a virus into the computers. Jiang Yidi had been observing Zhao Shengnan’s every move and sensed something was amiss. She stormed into the information department’s office to stop Zhao Shengnan from destroying the core secrets. However, during the intervention, Jiang Yidi injured her wrist. Yu Shi came to the hospital to take her to the company to amend the contract.

Ding Ming and Zhao Shengnan are not just ordinary colleagues, which is why Zhao Shengnan would do things for Ding Ming. Yu Shi originally planned to give Ding Ming a sum of money to get him to sign the termination of the labor agreement, but Ding Ming refused. Now that such an incident has occurred, they can only resort to legal action. Yu Shi instructed Jiang Yidi that there would be personnel changes in the company soon but hoped she wouldn’t tell anyone about what she knew. Jiang Yidi agreed. Yu Shi wanted to cultivate Jiang Yidi, so while amending the contract, she had Jiang Yidi watch, hoping she would learn more. After finishing overtime, Yu Shi personally escorted Jiang Yidi home. Jiang Yidi was hungry and wanted to eat something but fell asleep halfway. When she woke up, she found that Yu Shi had bought crayfish at the night market. Jiang Yidi went for a late-night snack with her best friend. Her friend learned that Yu Shi had invited Jiang Yidi for coffee on the weekend and thought Yu Shi was interested in her. However, Jiang Yidi seemed to have misunderstood, believing that the boss wanted to assess her business capabilities. Her friend finally understood what it meant to remain single based on one’s own strength. Jiang Yidi didn’t believe her friend, thinking that Yu Shi had fallen for her and that she was completely unaware of Yu Shi’s feelings.
Since experiencing Wei Liang’s situation, Jiang Yidi realized that girls must first learn to love themselves. Only when they fully love themselves can others emulate their way of loving, and they won’t be easily satisfied anymore. Although Jiang Yidi’s reasoning made sense, her best friend earnestly told her that when she meets the man she truly loves, she would naturally overturn all those theories. Jiang Yidi understood somewhat but decided to let future matters take their course, focusing now on truly loving herself.
Following her best friend’s advice, Jiang Yidi wore uncomfortable high heels to meet Yu Shi. Yu Shi had arranged for her to attend a book club meeting hosted by the well-known writer Li Weiqing. Jiang Yidi still thought the boss was testing her and believed the boss wanted to invest in this project. Therefore, before meeting Yu Shi, she researched the project. Many people wanted to invest in Li Weiqing’s reading community since he was among the first to venture into content and knowledge-based paid services. Many in the industry were keeping a close eye on him. Yu Shi did not expect Jiang Yidi to be such a workaholic or to be so interested in the project.
