In this chapter, Cai Ming tells his wife that he will stay faithful to her even after the marriage is over. He adds that Cai Ming's "subject" of being "devoted to each other" is "no problem" and that he does not expect the "grand young master" to bring up such a thing. He says that the agreement between Cai Ming and his wife is still "humanely worded" and he will have to "conform to his wishes" if he wants to clear the 20 million yuan debt.
