In this chapter, we learn that the village chief is not happy about the fact that the priest has lied to the people of the village about his affair with Zhenhua. The village chief tells the slave that he should move out of the attic so that he can live with his partner, but the slave refuses to leave the attic, saying that he is the young master and that he will give whatever he wants as long as he can please him. The slave tells the chief that he has just told him that he needs to be closely watched for his strange behavior, and the chief suggests that the slave move out to the attic. The chief immediately goes to investigate, but he seems to be getting a "happy worry" about something.
