However, his parents don't support his decision, and in order to avoid repeating his past mistakes, Yuan Hongbin kneels to his parents before leaving home. On the road, Yuan Hongbin encounters his former crush, Ling Xiaoyue, being bullied. Driven by a strong sense of justice, he fights off the thugs and saves her. He later learns that Ling Xiaoyue’s brother has a conflict with his former father-in-law, Yang Zhiguo, and suddenly recalls that it was Yang Zhiguo who had him killed in his previous life. While dining with Ling Xiaoyue, Yuan Hongbin faces a group of thugs demanding protection money. He helps the boss deal with them, not realizing this act would anger Yang Zhiguo. Yuan Hongbin now decides to take on Yang Zhiguo, remembering the accountant Liu Lili who had been killed by him in his previous life. But before confronting Yang Zhiguo, Yuan Hongbin needs start-up capital for his business. In desperation, he steals a family heirloom vase to sell it.

To prevent Ling Xiaoyue from misunderstanding, Yuan Hongbin confronts Yang Zhiguo alone, using explosives to force Yang Zhiguo to clear his name.
