Mrs. Xian was unable to leave Hong Kong in time and could only return to the Guangzhou Restaurant. As the "owner", she arranged for relatives to take positions in the restaurant and receive salaries, and asked Huang Qiquan and others to ensure monthly revenue. Since the troupe had nothing to sing, Chen Lixia heard that Mrs. Xian wanted to evict people and directly stated that she would take the troupe to leave.
As soon as he finished speaking, Mai Xiaowen hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay, but was rejected by Mrs. Xian, who was worried that she would harm the restaurant. Chen Shanhe and Chen Wei came to the Guangzhou Restaurant in Hong Kong. Chen Wei felt a little uncomfortable when he learned that his employer had been bombed by the Japanese army and told Mrs. Xian that he would spare no effort if needed.
Chen Wei then exchanged information with his friend Mai Xiaowen, and through him he received orders from his superiors to transfer mainly cultural figures to Guangzhou. That night, Chen Shanhe set up a table of wine to entertain everyone, and discussed how to apply for documents on the black market to leave Hong Kong. Mai Xiaowen promised to help solve the problem.
After dinner, Mai Xiaowen reminded Chen Wei to be careful about Chen Shanhe, because his entry document belonged to the epidemic prevention and water supply unit. This unit is very mysterious and the party organization cannot find out any useful information at all. Although Chen Wei did not believe that his eldest brother was a traitor, he still assured Mai Xiaowen that if Chen Shanhe did something that harmed the country, he would obey the organization's arrangements.
Now that the gendarmerie has deployed police forces from various places to surround Hong Kong, Ruan Feizhou has given Kuang Qingkui an opportunity. If he can catch the celebrities and intellectuals smuggled out by the CCP, he will definitely take credit for him. Because of this, Kuang Qingkui intercepted cultural figures who fled Hong Kong and returned to Guangzhou. The theater troupe led by the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family was blocked by Kuang Qingkui.
Just as Kuang Qingkui was about to take them all away, Ruan Feizhou suddenly came over and expressed his intention to send Chen Lixia back in person. Seeing what her eldest brother wanted, Chen Lixia had to agree first. On the other hand, Ruan Feizhou comforted Kuang Qingkui to let these people go first and wait patiently to lure bigger fish. Kuang Qingkui suddenly realized what he said.
Soon the three brothers and sisters returned to Guangzhou. Chen Lixia personally offered a stick of incense to their parents and saw that the eldest brother blamed the second brother for helping the three intellectuals escape from Hong Kong. Chen Wei went to see Tan Miaomiao immediately. The two looked at each other and smiled, and their hearts finally fell. Chen Shanhe told Chen Lixia about the tortuous process of protecting medical books, but he and Chen Wei had completely different understandings of whether it was better to have a jade in pieces than to live in ruins. Chen Lixia was a little confused. She only knew that the two brothers both had justice and peace in this troubled world. Take responsibility.
Ozawa Kotaro is not doing well and wants to sell the Guangzhou Restaurant. Chen Wei said that he would now buy back the Guangzhou Restaurant intact for his employer. Ozawa Kotaro agreed to Chen Wei's conditions and asked Chen Wei to compete in cooking skills. However, Chen Wei requested that the competition should not be made public and limited to A battle between two chefs.
Because Chen Wei was competing with the Japanese, everyone was worried that the Japanese would definitely cheat. Tam Yaoheng, Huang Qiquan and others discussed that the dishes for the competition should be carefully selected, which could not only show the characteristics of Cantonese cuisine, but also Chen Wei's cooking skills, and not let the dishes be used in the competition. The Japanese conspiracy succeeded. Chen Wei asked Tan Miaomiao what he thought. Tan Miaomiao planned to choose from her and Chen Wei's menu, and the others smiled knowingly.
Ruan Feizhou was invited to be the referee of this cooking show and said he would not let him lose the competition. Chen Wei took Ozawa Kotaro to the streets to show him what the people want and what food the people really like to eat. Although Ozawa Kotaro emphasized that he was not an aggressor, it was a fact that he robbed the Guangzhou Restaurant.
Chen Wei personally cooked a dish, which convinced Ozawa Kotaro, who was originally full of confidence, and took the initiative to sign and hand over the Guangzhou Restaurant to Chen Wei. In front of all reporters, Ozawa Kotaro admitted that he was too blindly confident and that it was Chen Wei who gave him a new understanding of cooking.
Obviously, the news that Chen Wei won back the Guangzhou Restaurant spread throughout Guangzhou, which boosted the morale of the people. Huang Qiquan continued to take charge of the Guangzhou Restaurant, and Chen Wei gained a halo in Tan Miaomiao's eyes. The two played the piano together, understood each other's feelings under the dim light, and made a private decision for life. Tan Miaomiao was curious as to why he was sewing a new button on every time he washed clothes. Chen Wei said that it would not be so uncomfortable if he was arrested one day.
Kuang Qingkui noticed that someone in the team had been watching his position, and he had not made any achievements since he surrendered to the Japanese. His subordinate Mai Kun roughly figured out the strength of the CCP's underground organization, but he didn't alert the enemy until he found a radio station. Kuang Qingkui couldn't wait any longer, ordered the net to be closed, and led the military police to swarm into Tan Miaomiao's new home. Because the situation was critical and there was no time to hide the radio station, Tan Miaomiao asked Chen Wei not to be exposed, and she was taken back to Tan Shitou Prison.
