Shi Aoju becomes enraged after seeing a text message from Su Jiuyi about a blind date. Meanwhile, Su Jiuyi's mother, Zhao Shuya, loses money gambling, and Su Jiuyi overhears a conversation with her mother's friend, He Lanxiang, who criticizes Su Jiuyi's work, implying it's beneath her and questioning her presence at home.

With her final words spoken, Su Jiuyi recalled something else and added, "Certainly, a significant portion of my strength stems from my mother, who has continuously watched over me from another realm. Her desire for my well-being prevents me from suffering harm, ensuring my safety. My life is not a performance for others, but a way to bring peace to my mother's spirit. While you may inflict pain, I will not surrender my dignity in response."

Su Jiuyi does not perceive herself as a woman of great fortitude, yet she consistently confronts adversity and challenges with resilience. Even when she stumbles, she accepts it, knowing she possesses the capacity to rise again and make a fresh start.

The initial instance of being subjected to mockery and ridicule might have caused her sorrow, but after enduring it repeatedly, she gradually grew accustomed to such treatment. Over time, she developed a form of immunity to external negativity, much like becoming 'Immune to Hundred Poisons'.

He Lanxiang possesses a degree of familiarity with Su Jiuyi, though their interactions have been few. Her knowledge primarily derives from Zhao Shuya's accounts, portraying Su Jiuyi as pretentious and haughty, lacking skills but prone to fits of temper and threatening to leave home at the slightest disagreement. To spite Su Zhenxiong, she even took employment at a nightclub, ostensibly to earn money but actually to pursue men, which is why she made those disparaging remarks earlier.

However, He Lanxiang found herself taken aback when Su Jiuyi retorted, leaving her speechless. Recognizing that further discussion would be counterproductive, she opted to delegate the troublesome task to Zhao Shuya. "Shuya, you must rein in your daughter. I had merely mentioned how, thanks to you, she managed to rejoin the Su Family, and she immediately invoked her deceased mother to intimidate me! I was truly taken aback..."

As she spoke, He Lanxiang deliberately adopted a wounded expression, which Su Jiuyi found repulsive. She mused that, given Zhao Shuya's character, the quality of her friends could only be as depicted.

Deciding not to engage further with them, Su Jiuyi turned to leave the hall. As she approached the exit, Zhao Shuya's voice called out from behind her, "I do not fault you for the earlier exchange, but you must offer an apology to your Auntie Lanxiang. As a junior, addressing elders with such a tone is disrespectful. Have you forgotten all the principles your father instilled in you after merely one visit to the nightclub?"

Su Jiuyi halted her movement, casting a backward glance at Zhao Shuya, finding the situation rather absurd. These individuals persistently referenced the nightclub, as if implying that patronizing such an establishment rendered her impure?

Ah yes, she was, in fact, no longer a 'pure' person; she had already given herself to Shi Aoju previously. But what consequence did it hold? Even if she were no longer alive, how would it concern these people?

Withdrawing her gaze from Zhao Shuya, Su Jiuyi turned away once more and proceeded out without a backward glance, disregarding Zhao Shuya's insistent calls for an apology to He Lanxiang.

Su Jiuyi had intended to procure some ingredients for a meal to prepare for Shi Aoju. However, just as she reached the main entrance, a burly bodyguard intercepted her. "Apologies, Miss, but the master has instructed that you are not permitted to leave the premises before nine o'clock tonight. Kindly return inside."

Su Jiuyi observed the bodyguard, noting his unfamiliarity, indicating he was likely a recent addition. A quick survey of her surroundings revealed several other unfamiliar guards. The realization dawned on her: these individuals were dispatched by Su Zhenxiong to monitor her, ensuring her compliance and attendance at tonight's arranged matchmaking banquet.
