Mr. Dong apologizes for disturbing his son. He tells his son to get rid of the old furniture as soon as possible. He also tells him that Lingling is out of danger, and that he should not worry about it. He invites the professor, who is worried about his vision, to come and look at the new chair in the family room. The professor is shocked to find that the chair is made of rosewood and buckhorn, and his father will blame him for the accident. He asks the son if he can give him any other furniture, but the son says he wants to keep the secret.
