Dingdang and zheng are engaged, and dingdang's grandfather, who has not seen her for ten years, is there to confirm the news. Worried about his granddaughter's feelings for zheng, the old man tells the young man to prove his love by kissing her.

The elder zheng tells her that the family has changed its mind, and she is free to go, but she is not allowed to stay for long. Anxious, she asks her grandfather to take care of her, and he agrees.
