HON LAP asks NGO-TIN to hang out and have a drink, during which he mentions that SIU-SHAN has been tying up with YAT-LEUNG.

However, SIU-SHAN is still unable to purchase the wine for YAT-LEUNG. Predicting that YAT-LEUNG will soon be ousted from power, NGO-TIN also suspects that there is someone else behind HON LAP as his boss.

TING-TING goes to the cotton mill to look for SIU-HONG, only to find him so happy chatting with NGO-TIN, so she advises SIU-HONG to keep a distance from NGO-TIN……
