Gu Sheng Nan met her friend Xiaolu at the agreed location, and they spent hours catching up and discussing their lives. Xiaolu mentioned her theory that the mysterious boy who saved Gu Sheng Nan might be from the underworld. Gu Sheng Nan laughed, but then asked seriously, "How do we get to the underworld?"
Xiaolu offered to connect them with someone who could provide information. When Gu Sheng Nan mentioned the boy's nickname, "King Devil," Xiaolu's eyes widened in surprise.
Meanwhile, Zhang Li struggled to focus, haunted by the image of Gu Sheng Nan in a towel. He found himself at the tea house where she was meeting her friend, feeling an inexplicable connection to her.
His assistant informed him about a woman inquiring about him in the underworld. Zhang Li ordered his assistant to bring the person to him. A young woman from the underworld arrived, revealing that someone had offered a large sum of money to learn about "King Devil." Zhang Li suspected a trick by Ming Yue and asked to see the woman's picture.
The woman showed him Gu Sheng Nan's photo, and Zhang Li instructed his assistant to gather more information about her. Unbeknownst to Gu Sheng Nan, Zhang Li assigned the leader of the Blade Ladies, a skilled shadow guard, to protect her.
Back at the mansion, Gu Sheng Nan couldn't shake off thoughts of the handsome man she met earlier. She blushed and eventually fell asleep, hoping for a better tomorrow.
