Following the Physician's diagnosis of confirming OI-TAI's pregnancy, CHENG KIU instead pleads with the Physician to keep it secret. On the following day after CHENG KIU informed OI-TAI about her own pregnancy, OI-TAI sends CHENG KIU out to buy some candied lotus seeds for her on the excuse of taking them with the medicine. Yet upon CHENG KIU's return, she is nowhere to be found. As MIU TIN happens to pass by OI-TAI's home, CHENG KIU reveals to him that she has gone.
