In this chapter, we learn that the villain, the Second Young Master, is planning to kill the young lady. The young lady's uncle, liang, begs him to spare the girl's life, but liang refuses, saying that the girl will still be loyal to him in his next life. The old man's friend, meng Qingze, also refuses to help the girl. He says that he is a "natural and unrestrained" man who has been living in the city for a short period of time, and that he will kill anyone who tries to harm him. .
