  • 2 days ago
In this episode, the stakes begin to rise as the Shadow Stream Organization, a dangerous group of assassins, takes notice of Sun Rong due to her family’s wealth and influence. The group dispatches their most skilled members to capture her, seeing an opportunity to extort the Sun family for power and resources. Unbeknownst to Sun Rong, her life is in danger.

Wang Ling, who is still determined to lead a normal life, becomes aware of the Shadow Stream’s presence but chooses to remain in the background, hoping to avoid unnecessary attention. However, when Sun Rong is ambushed by Shadow Stream assassins, he has no choice but to step in. Despite his usual laid-back attitude, Wang Ling quietly follows the unfolding situation to ensure Sun Rong’s safety.

Sun Rong, who has been trained in combat herself, tries to fight back but finds herself overwhelmed by the skill of the assassins. Just when it seems like things are about to take a dire turn, Wang Ling intervenes in his typical nonchalant fashion. With a flick of his finger, he eliminates the threat in an instant, effortlessly defeating the assassins without revealing his full power to anyone, including Sun Rong.

This episode further builds the dynamic between Wang Ling and Sun Rong, as Sun Rong begins to notice Wang Ling’s quiet protectiveness. Although she remains unaware of his true abilities, she starts to feel a mysterious bond with him, intrigued by how he always seems to be around in moments of crisis.

The episode also highlights Wang Ling’s internal conflict, as he struggles with wanting to remain unnoticed while constantly being drawn into situations where his immense power is needed. Additionally, the Shadow Stream’s interest in Sun Rong introduces a larger antagonist that will likely challenge Wang Ling’s goal of living a peaceful, ordinary life.
