Episode 15 recap: Xiao Feng was murdered.
Song A Jiu saw someone taking away the hairpin, but when he turned around, he found Song Shi Jie, Ling Long, and He Shou Xin, those three annoying people, behind him. Xiao Feng was now very happy and kept twisting his body. Song A Jiu felt a bit embarrassed. Song Shi Jie and the others tactfully let the two of them be alone for a while, but they quickly reappeared and told Song A Jiu that they must get along well and make both of them happy. They encouraged them to kiss each other and said that the longer the kiss, the stronger the affection.
The two of them actually followed Song Shi Jie's advice. Xiao Feng now felt a bit embarrassed looking at A Jiu. He quickly said he was going out to buy something, but before leaving, he turned back and told Song A Jiu to shave his beard. Xiao Feng went out alone and unexpectedly encountered foreigners on the way. They intercepted him and drugged him, then took him to a small place to torture him.
Song A Jiu waited for a long time but didn't see Xiao Feng coming back. Song Shi Jie advised his brother to quickly find Xiao Feng. However, when Song A Jiu arrived on the street, he discovered that Xiao Feng had been assaulted and was lying on the street.
Xiao Feng was brought back home, and Ling Long couldn't accept Song Shi Jie after seeing that Xiao Feng had been assaulted. She comforted Song A Jiu and asked him to calm down and quickly find Nian Shan Shan to treat Xiao Feng.
After an examination, Nian Shan Shan confirmed that Xiao Feng had been assaulted. Nian Shan Shan told Song Shi Jie that they had seen similar injuries on a woman during the day and suspected it was the same person who did it. They also found it strange that the girl was discovered at Shun Tian Mansion and wanted to investigate the situation. Nian Shan Shan brought Song Shi Jie to examine the body and showed him the wounds. Song Shi Jie was certain that the wounds were caused by the same person.
When Xiao Feng woke up and looked around, he felt guilty and knew that he was no longer innocent. He didn't dare to make eye contact with Song A Jiu. Ling Long hugged Xiao Feng and comforted him. Song Shi Jie also felt helpless and distressed by the scene, so he left.
Song Shi Jie encountered the British envoy, who kept boasting about his power and had a volatile temper. Song Shi Jie realized that he didn't want to let the other party control him and decided to win the case at all costs. Before leaving, the British envoy, Adrian, told Song Shi Jie that he would find him soon. At that moment, Xiao Feng suddenly noticed a mark on Adrian's neck and realized that he was the one who assaulted him. He became emotionally overwhelmed, and after learning the truth, Ling Long impulsively wanted to confront Adrian. However, Song Shi Jie stopped his wife, stating that it was a matter of national importance and mishandling it could lead to war.
Song Shi Jie promised his wife that he would expose the evidence of the British envoy's crimes to seek revenge for Xiao Feng. He quietly followed Adrian.
After he left, Song Shi Jie entered the store and ordered the same drink. He thought that this Adrian, whom Xiao Feng asked him to help, was obviously not a good person, and he knew that these people were all covering for each other.
Ling Long couldn't bear to see Song Shi Jie acting drunk and venting his anger on her. When Song Shi Jie came to see Nian Shan Shan to express his love, Ling Long overheard and felt very sad.
Ling Long kept telling her husband that she would change if she did something wrong. However, Song Shi Jie bluntly told Ling Long that she was foolish and couldn't change her nature. Ling Long angrily slapped Song Shi Jie and left in tears.
Song Shi Jie also painfully wrote a divorce letter. Before leaving, Ling Long looked at this place full of beautiful memories, suppressed her longing, and left without hesitation. Song Shi Jie secretly watched Ling Long leave, crying like a tearful person in a corner.
With the worries resolved, Song Shi Jie seemed to have lost the spirit he had before. He went to Adrian's residence and slapped himself in the face repeatedly, trying to make his expression less stiff, and then went to talk to the person inside. Song Shi Jie didn't give the other person any face at all and directly called Adrian a despicable person.
Adrian thought that Song Shi Jie was just like him, otherwise, why would he initially refuse to take his case but later accept it? Adrian shamelessly claimed that he violated the girl named Qing Qing in order to express his longing for his distant wife, so he took advantage of her when the night was dark.
Song Shi Jie realized that the girl Adrian mentioned was actually Xiao Feng. Adrian said that the girl's father came looking for him afterward, wanting him to take responsibility. But as a British envoy, how could he succumb to the demands of such a person? Song Shi Jie became emotionally charged and confronted Adrian. Adrian acknowledged the validity of Song Shi Jie's words and even praised himself, showing that he hadn't misjudged Song Shi Jie.
Song Shi Jie suggested that Adrian shed a few tears in court, and when he saw Adrian trying hard to do so, Song Shi Jie didn't hesitate to go up and punch him twice. Song Shi Jie was angry to learn that Xiao Feng was actually fighting a legal battle for Qing Qing and realized that he had been played.
