The next morning, the two women discuss the situation with the guests at the banquet. The guests were invited by the Zhao family, and the women are now unable to trace them. The Zhaos have also requested an increase in the fees paid for the promotion of the new film. The women also discuss the fact that xiaoran's girlfriend, the female lead in the new movie, had relied on her seduction to secure the role. The gossip on the web is endless, and "the record of beauty in beingijing" has been in the publicity period for a long time. The two women are about to begin the show, when they hear that a security camera has been set up on the set. They wonder if the girl is trying to destroy them both, and they ask the guards to take the intruder away. The guards agree to do so, but the women insist that the intruder must be involved in the hack of the security system. The young master tells them that he was afraid that the people would misunderstand his relationship with the girl, and so he decided to keep the role a secret. He then goes to the set and visits her.
