The injured Wenying asked Chengjae the truth.Sungjae insisted that Tae Soo died on the way to the hospital due to alcohol poisoning.He was in danger due to Ma Kang's serial phone calls and Zhenyu's chase with a gun. During the chaos, he was shot and wounded by Zhenyu.Chengjae frankly told Wenying that all his previous efforts and investments were in vain on the Haian project and the funds dried up. He had to turn to Ma Kang for help, but was ultimately trapped.He blamed Ma Kang for all his misfortunes, and even suspected that life insurance had been manipulated by Ma Kang.As for Mingxi, Chengcai said that she was the one he arranged to take care of Xiaobao while he was suspended from death.
Wenying asks Chengjae to return and pay off his debts, but Chengjae reveals that Ma Kang will not let him go.Wenying was extremely disappointed and made a scene, but unexpectedly gained the sympathy of her neighbors.They go into hiding and Sungjae discovers that Wenying still trusts him.He provided more illegal evidence about Ma Kang through a USB flash drive, hoping that Wenying would be able to stay away from Xiaobao's danger.However, he must continue to fake death because it is the only way out.Wenying's eyes were filled with tears after hearing this.
At home, Moon-young learns that Sung-jae has paid the ransom to Zhen-woo, which further deepens her trust in her husband.In order to make up for the loss of the law firm, she tried to stop the flow of funds from the welfare fund, but was blocked by her father-in-law Cao Yong.It turns out that Cao Yong's charity is a means for him to seek the nomination as mayor of Haicheng.
Zhenyu becomes more and more despicable. He asks Detective Baek to track Sungjae and claims that it was Huang Taixiu who shot him.They find Tae-soo's empty house, but the bill has been settled.A neighbor provided a key clue, saying that he heard a woman's quarrel, and Zhenyu suspected that Wenying had been in contact with Chengjae.When Zhenyu finally contacted Wenying, he questioned whether she had the gun and believed that she had become irredeemable.
At the same time, Ma Kang and his subordinate Yin continued to threaten Xiaobao.Wenying decided to take legal action and claim 7 billion won from Ma Kang.In court, she presented a USB flash drive as evidence, which recorded a dash cam video of Ma Kang beating a villager, Mr. Park, and running over him with his car.Jin Yunshan was present and called the police, but Ma Kang cut off the call.Instead, he tries to convince Sungjae to let Kim Yoon-sun take responsibility.Jin Yunshan finally called the police, and Sungjae obtained key evidence from the driving recorder of a truck at the scene.
In court, Wenying revealed the truth about Jin Yunshan's death before the trial and Sungjae's suicide due to guilt.She accused Ma Kang of threatening Chengjae's family for mishandling the case, leading Shenhua to arrest him for murder.
Elder Cui Moo-won watched the news and smiled at Yeon-joo.Wenying sent a text message to Chengjae to express his thoughts and encourage him to make the right choice and take responsibility.She feels at ease and happily sends Xiao Bao to school and then attends Yeon Joo's tea party.At the tea party, Yeon-joo gives Moon-young a bag of cash as a surprise.Shenhua called, and Yanzhu encouraged Wenying to pick it up because there was good news - Ma Kang suffered an accident while in detention.Later, Yeon-joo showed a photo of Sung-jae leaving Tae-soo's house and asked Moon-young if he was looking forward to a happy reunion.
