Five years later, Pei Tingzhou searched for Qiao Ruan across the country, and finally reunited with Qiao Ruan on a cruise ship, who was living in Europe with his daughter Chloe. Qiao Ruan decided to cut off the past and entered into a relationship with He Jingsheng, whom she had been lovingly waiting for for many years. Pei Tingzhou had doubts about Chloe's background. While he declined Meng Mingyu's active pursuit, he secretly arranged to put pressure on the He family and force He Jingsheng to return home early. Later, Qiao Ruan was invited to participate in a domestic ancient mural restoration project and brought her daughter back to China. As an investor behind the project, Pei Tingzhou took the opportunity of work to intervene in her life again. The two people's dusty past grievances were once again intertwined with the new workplace.
