Aunt zhou tells the young man that he can't forgive her for the way she treated him. The young man says that he wants to talk to his father, but he's afraid that the man is cold-blooded and won't talk to him. He's also afraid that if his father inherits the family fortune, he'll become a lawyer, which means that the young men will have nothing to do with the family business. The old woman says that if she doesn't change her ways, she'll push the old man even further away. She says that the only way for the two of them to get back together is for the old woman to die, and for the new man to become the heir to the family's fortune.
