Liu Xiangli, still recovering from a gunshot wound, insisted on going out with Li Huai, which naturally Xuan Bingbing did not agree with. Unable to dissuade Liu Xiangli, she had to accompany them that afternoon.
Shopping, watching movies, and dining out, the two were like a couple on a date. Li Huai held Liu Xiangli's hand throughout the day, inadvertently making Xuan Bingbing a third wheel. She advised Liu Xiangli to be mindful of her public image and her engagement to Xu Bowen. However, Liu Xiangli dismissed her concerns and was content with Li Huai's actions. There was nothing Xuan Bingbing could do about their mutual affection.
It wasn't until after nine at night that the three returned home. Xuan Bingbing arranged a room for Li Huai on the first floor. Li Huai was displeased, "How meddlesome! We are already married; we should be staying in the same room! What's with the arrangement?"
