The scene opens in a luxurious restaurant in Shanghai. The waiter greets the young woman and asks her if she has come to the restaurant often. The young woman tells him that she does not come often because one of her friends once took her there. She tells the waiter that she is now the girlfriend of the rich man, and the waiter gives her the money back if the food does not taste good. She asks the waiter to tell her the truth, and he does so. He tells her that the man who took her here was a rich man and that she should not tell him that now she is his girlfriend. He asks her why she is so upset, and she says that she has eaten four ice cream and that it is the ice cream that is causing her pain. He then tells her the card she gave the waiter was a sign of the private chamber of the man she is talking to. He also tells her not to run the man down, because the man will hurt her. She says that the master is here to give her a gift for the new year, and that he asked her to inform him of her presence. He must have misunderstood her presence, because she has refused to stay at the hotel with him today. She then tells him she has something to tell the man, but he does not reply to her. He says that his grandfather will be with her today, so she will not have to go to the hotel. She also says that he has not sent her any messages, but that he picked up her call four days ago.
