Zhang Youzhi recalled Number Two explaining the White Jade Capital Company, emotional disasters, and the company’s origins and mission. As the train arrived at Songjiang North Station, Zhang Youzhi remained a phantom and the story left him returning from his memories.

• Zhang Youzhi remembered learning that the White Jade Capital Company identified and prevented emotional disasters, which ranged from individual cases to catastrophic collective events.

• A train announcement for Songjiang North Station interrupted Zhang Youzhi’s recollections.

Li Douyu searched Songjiang City for Zhang Youzhi while evading people who kept trying to befriend her and a sleazy man who followed her. At the university, Si Weizhe’s task force realized their repeated approaches had only made her more suspicious and planned to visit her with gifts.

• Li Douyu noticed the sleazy man following her and tried to draw the nearby police into helping by offering them watermelons, but the man remained outside her home.
• Li Douyu armed herself with a chainsaw to scare off the stalker, then broke down crying over Zhang Youzhi’s absence.
• Si Weizhe told the task force that Li Douyu had long known their Zhang Youzhi was fake and that their approaches had made her distrust them.
• Si Weizhe sent Bai Song to buy gifts so the five task-force members could visit Li Douyu that night and reassure her before the hypnosis expert arrived.

• Number Two accepted a subordinate’s plan to secure the experts’ release, send a senior manager to Li Douyu, and resurrect Zhang Youzhi.

After Li Douyu was cleared of suspicion, Li Fei’s officers protected her while Number Two managed the released young people and sent the Hypnotist away from her guarded home.

• Investigators ruled Li Douyu’s killing of the old thug self-defense and uncovered evidence that he had stalked her with a knife.

• Zhang Youzhi’s soul reached Songjiang City and reflected on his lifeless existence, then resolved to find her before disappearing.

Number Two was assigned to investigate a potential C+ emotional disaster caused by missing children, while Si Weizhe's team organized an investigation and sting operation. Zhang Youzhi tried to work out how to find Li Douyu, who eventually disguised herself and set out to search for him.

• Number Two learned that grief over missing children could combine into a C+ emotional disaster, so he sent Si Weizhe and a hypnotist to investigate.
• Zhang Youzhi found Li Douyu's missing-person notice and decided to map where other notices appeared to narrow down his search.
• Si Weizhe's task force shifted its focus from Li Douyu to the missing children and assigned Gu Yu, Bai Song, Nanmen Yingyun, and Wen Xuanjing their investigation roles.

Number Two exposed how badly Zhang Youzhi had misjudged Li Douyu and offered him an unfinished resurrection pill, which Zhang Youzhi kept rather than swallowing.

• Nanmen Yingyun and Wen Xuanjing told Si Weizhe that their student disguises had failed to lure the traffickers, and Si Weizhe suggested Wen Xuanjing take over as bait.

• Number Two offered Zhang Youzhi an unfinished pill that could return him to life, but Zhang Youzhi took it and decided to wait before eating it.

Zhang Youzhi delayed taking the pill so he could search for Li Douyu, while Li Douyu uncovered a trafficking ring and followed its members, fearing Zhang Youzhi might be in danger. The traffickers abducted Nanmen Yingyun and Wen Xuanjing, and their group fled before police arrived.

• Number Two told Zhang Youzhi that the White Jade Capital Company could predict emotional disasters only within a general area, then left after saying Li Douyu could be stabilized now that Zhang Youzhi had the pill.
• Zhang Youzhi decided to postpone taking the pill for a few days and find Li Douyu first.
• Li Douyu overheard two traffickers discussing their plans, sent her location and a recording to the policewoman, then rode after them while sharing her live location.
• Under pressure to capture more lambs, the snatchers targeted Nanmen Yingyun and Wen Xuanjing, who had sneaked out of school for a date.
• The traffickers drugged Wen Xuanjing, carried Nanmen Yingyun and Wen Xuanjing away, and hurried out of the park.

Nanmen Yingyun and the Hypnotist’s group sparked a breakout at the abandoned complex, while Wen Xuanjing escaped with a child to summon help. The chapter ended with Si Weizhe racing back into the chaos to rescue Cherry.

• Li Douyu was seized by armed men and taken with a baby to the abandoned complex, where more than a hundred children were being loaded into a truck.

Li Douyu and Zhang Youzhi became caught in the Songjiang City disaster as armed forces attacked a criminal compound, and Zhang Youzhi used the Golden Pill to reach her. After the fighting, he held the gravely wounded Li Douyu and sang to her, leaving her fate uncertain.

• Si Weizhe found the wounded Nanmen Yingyun and carried her out, while the man in sunglasses discovered that the baby in his car was dead.
• Zhang Youzhi fed the remaining Golden Pill to Li Douyu, held her among the bodies in the compound, and softly sang to her as he felt her faint heartbeat.

Li Douyu continued her inexplicable recovery in the hospital while claiming she could speak with Zhang Youzhi, and Elder Xing arranged her discharge. Back at the dormitory, the injured Emotional Services Department team discovered their company accounts had gained points, new privileges, and a Points Mall.

Zhang Youzhi remained invisible to everyone except Li Douyu after taking half a pill, so he went with her to Songjiang University to find Number Two. There, Li Douyu reunited with Nanmen Yingyun and the others, introduced Zhang Youzhi as her boyfriend, and proved he was real with a photograph.
