The chapter opens with a flashback to the events of the previous chapter, in which we learn that xiaoshi's mission was to "change your fate" and lead to a "dead end" with you. This is why you've changed so much in the past few years. The flashback also reveals that the red silk that was used to bind the two of them to each other was actually a red cloth with the names of both of them written on it. This red cloth will only work if the two people in the relationship write down their names on the cloth. The narrator then explains that he's going to use the red cloth as a kind of "rope" to make two people "fall in love" with each other. He's not going to do it on his own, he says, but he'll do it with the help of the waiters at the restaurant. He says that he can do it if he needs to. He explains that the mission master gave him was to weave a "thick red rope" , and this red cloth can make two men fall in love "quickly" . He can take the red rope back if he wants, but only if he can make sure that the two men are in love with one another. The red cloth looks good on the waiters, and the floor is just mopped, so the rope must be slippery. He tells the men to leave it to him, and then he goes to get the girl.
