In the office of Xia Xin, General Manager of the Human Resources Department at Union Bank Headquarters, Lin Qiang is holding his transfer application, awaiting her approval. He had offended his mentor, Qian Cai, who is the General Manager of the Credit Approval Department, by refusing to sign off on a problematic loan. As a result, he is being transferred from the headquarters to a remote branch in Longyuan to serve as the deputy branch manager. Meanwhile, Lin Qiang's close friend, Zheng Shuai, is also handling his transfer documents and will be joining him at Longyuan.

Lin Qiang went into a bar to question the work of student employees but was kicked out by the bar's security, so he waited outside her school to warn her to be careful. Feeling frustrated, Hao Wei went to complain to Qian Cai, blaming him for sending someone who stirs up trouble. Qian Cai could only comfort him, assuring him that Lin Qiang would be transferred out soon. Later, Lin Qiang was invited to Qian Cai's home for dinner, where Qian Cai's wife, Shi Yingying, tried to mediate between the two, hoping to ease the tension in their relationship.

Xiao Xiao learned of the news and immediately informed all the tellers. The girls rushed to the office, threatening to collectively resign in protest of Lin Qiang's transfer. After Zhu Fengshan left, Lin Qiang criticized the girls for their behavior, stressing the importance of adhering to the bank's rules and regulations. The group then began discussing the issue of Lin Qiang's transfer. Zheng Shuai mentioned that the head office had an incentive: if they could attract deposits of five hundred million within a month, Lin Qiang could be promoted by one level while staying in his current position.

Lin Qiang reluctantly cooperated with the inspection team in auditing the accounts. The deposit plan was disrupted, and it forced the tellers to work overtime. Everyone realized that this spot check was aimed at disrupting Lin Qiang's plan to secure five hundred million in deposits. Zhang Jiaming privately reported the inspection details to Hao Wei, and the two concluded that Lin Qiang's departure was inevitable. The next day, Lin Qiang completely changed his previously uncooperative attitude and respectfully assisted the inspection team with the spot check.

Less than 48 hours remain to reach the "five hundred million" target, and Lin Qiang and Zheng Shuai are in their dormitory, filled with worry. On the other side, the female employees of the Longyuan branch are also sitting anxiously in their dormitory. Together, they sarcastically admire Lin Xiaozao's insincere self-criticism letter. Lin Xiaozhao expresses her stance, determined to stick with Lin Qiang through thick and thin. Meanwhile, Lin Qiang is busy running around for business. While trying to secure deposits from a company, he unexpectedly runs into Qian Cai.

Reviewing the surveillance footage was merely a stalling tactic. Zhu Fengshan had a heart-to-heart conversation with Lin Qiang about the current situation. Zhang Jiaming sought out Lin Qiang to apologize and expressed his hope that his daughter could perform on stage. Lin Qiang agreed. At the financial education event, Lin Qiang spoke humorously and confidently, earning thunderous applause from the audience. When it was time for the performance, Zhang Jiaming's daughter hesitated to go on stage, but Lin Qiang patiently encouraged her. In the end, she mustered the courage and stepped onto the stage.

In the headquarters office, Xia Xin received an email. She invited Lin Qiang to her home for a private discussion. However, Lin Qiang's plan to turn things around with the offshore fishery loan was not flawless. At the shooting range, Hao Wei presented a detailed risk report on the offshore fishery project, recommending that the head office terminate it. Despite Hao Wei's urgency, Chen Xingyuan refused to make a statement, and Qian Cai advised Hao Wei to recognize the current situation and remain silent. The same risk report also appeared in Xia Xin's inbox.
