Episode 3 recap: Pei Pei and Shan Dan Dan were at odds with each other.

Pei Pei instructed Cui Liu to send Shan Dan Dan cosmetics and clothing, and specifically requested that Shan Dan Dan serve Pei Pei in the evening by bathing her. Cui Liu already disliked Shan Dan Dan, and now felt even more hatred towards her, as Shan Dan Dan's presence was like that of a rival since she arrived. However, Shan Dan Dan was very resistant to Pei Pei's arrangements, but was powerless to resist her master's orders and had to accept her fate. It was then that Shan Dan Dan hatched a plan to get back at Pei Pei.

Shan Dan Dan went prepared to Pei Pei's room. Although Pei Pei was also averse to Shan Dan Dan, she had no choice but to reluctantly accept her. Pei Pei asked Shan Dan Dan to first massage her back. The prepared Shan Dan Dan then called Yang Yu Huan to step on Pei Pei's back, causing the over 200-pound Yang Yu Huan to inflict great pain on Pei Pei. When Pei Pei turned around, she found it was Yang Yu Huan and did not know how to scold them.

At this time, Madam Pei Qin arrived with people, as someone had reported that someone was intentionally seducing young master Pei. Pei Pei quickly had Yang Yu Huan hide. Shan Dan Dan figured that Madam Pei Qin's arrival was Pei Pei's scheme to frame her for seducing the young master and get rid of her. So Shan Dan Dan greeted Madam Pei Qin and left, but Madam Pei Qin did not blame Shan Dan Dan and was actually pleased, while Pei Pei's plan to deal with Shan Dan Dan had failed again.

Yang Yu Huan, upset that Shan Dan Dan's carefully prepared carving materials were destroyed, cried as she carved. Shan Dan Dan comforted her and went out to find cheaper jade materials for Yang Yu Huan to continue learning carving. But the shopkeeper said the jade had already been reserved by Su Yu Xuan's Su Jue. At that moment, Shan Shuang Shuang and Su Jue arrived. Unexpectedly, Su Jue offered the jade to Shan Dan Dan.

Shan Dan Dan praised Su Jue profusely, saying that Pei Pei of the Qibei Hall was not worthy of Su Jue's little toe. Just then, Pei Pei arrived and angrily heard Shan Dan Dan's words, directly smashing the jade in Shan Dan Dan's hand before leaving.

Shan Dan Dan was also enraged by Pei Pei's actions, but since Madam Pei Qin trusted her greatly, she could not leave Qibei Hall because of this. She collected the broken jade and returned, with her sister Shan Shuang Shuang following closely behind Pei Pei.

As Pei Pei was walking away angrily, Shan Shuang Shuang ambushed her, hitting her leg with a stone and causing Pei Pei to nearly fall. Pei Pei ended up hugging a plump woman on the street, leading the woman to think Pei Pei was trying to take liberties with her. Pei Pei had no choice but to explain that it was unintentional before being let go.

Shan Dan Dan took the jade stone to Yang Yu Huan and asked her to carve it, but unexpectedly, Yang Yu Huan suddenly requested a one-month leave of absence to go back home and get engaged, as someone had proposed to her due to her physique. This would delay the jade carving competition, but Shan Dan Dan had no choice but to agree, as she couldn't force Yang Yu Huan. However, Shan Dan Dan ended up directing her frustration towards Pei Pei.

Shan Dan Dan directly went to confront Pei Pei, believing that Pei Pei had plotted to send Yang Yu Huan away to get engaged, ruining Shan Dan Dan's jade carving competition. Shan Dan Dan scolded Pei Pei, calling him a useless person who had everything but could do nothing. No matter how Pei Pei tried to stop her, Shan Dan Dan was determined to go to the competition.

After Shan Dan Dan left, Pei Pei was deeply hurt by being called a useless person, feeling that Shan Dan Dan had hit the nail on the head about his life's truth. The next morning, Shan Dan Dan did not make food for Pei Pei, and Cui Liu brought him a meal, but Pei Pei had no appetite. Learning that Shan Dan Dan had caught a cold, Pei Pei hurried to check on her.

Shan Dan Dan was very angry at Pei Pei and wanted to drive him away, but Pei Pei refused to leave. Seeing Shan Dan Dan studying jade carving despite her illness, Pei Pei patiently guided her on the techniques. Although Pei Pei was somewhat detached from the world, he had some skills, and under Shan Dan Dan's guidance, he successfully carved the jade. Shan Dan Dan was delighted with the result and took the finished product to show the elderly Mrs. Pei Qin, who was very impressed and realized that someone must have been coaching Pei Pei.

Shan Dan Dan went to Giye Pavilion to ask the shopkeeper Hao for good quality jade, but he claimed there was no supply available in the market. Pei Pei overheard this and took Alu to search the market for jade materials. Shan Dan Dan also went to the market and discovered that many people were secretly selling jade, using seafood as a cover. Shan Dan Dan quickly figured out their code and obtained some materials.

As Shan Dan Dan was leaving with the materials, she happened to see Pei Pei purchasing jade in the black market. However, the sellers mistook Pei Pei for an official and were about to apprehend him.
