A Better Life Episode 14 Recap
> A Better Life Recap
Wu Ya moved from the rental house to the hospital dormitory. Xue Xiaozhou wanted to rent a smaller house. Hu Manli then suggested Xue Xiaozhou move into her house, and he could also tutor Ding Daer in English along the way. Xue Xiaozhou felt it was inconvenient. He politely declined Hu Manli's kind offer. Xue Xiaozhou couldn't find a suitable house for a while, so he took his luggage and the cat to a hotel first.
However, the hotel didn't allow pets. Xue Xiaozhou searched until dark but still couldn't find a suitable place to stay. Having nowhere else to go, he had no choice but to return to Hu Manli's house again. Ding Daer thought Xue Xiaozhou was Hu Manli's new boyfriend and enthusiastically welcomed his arrival. Hu Manli didn't like pets, but Ding Daer really liked that cat. He promised to get a good score on the next English exam.
Xue Xiaozhou voluntarily offered to tutor Ding Daer in English. Hu Manli was naturally overjoyed, demanding that Ding Daer's English score must be in the top ten in his class, otherwise they would split 20-80. Xue Xiaozhou and Hu Manli bargained, neither giving way. Ding Daer pleaded with Xue Xiaozhou to stay, and only then did Xue Xiaozhou reluctantly agree to Hu Manli's condition. The more Xue Xiaozhou thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
He was stepping into Hu Manli's trap step by step. Hu Manli desperately tried to cover it up. Xue Xiaozhou stopped pursuing the matter. Hu Manli told him to start tutoring Ding Daer that very evening. Ai Linjiang persistently pursued Wu Ya. Wu Ya agreed to have dinner with him. Ai Linjiang seized the opportunity to express his feelings to her, but Wu Ya refused him directly.
Xue Xiaozhou had a video call with Wu Ya and told her about moving into Hu Manli's house. Hu Manli entered the room to bring Xue Xiaozhou some fruit. Wu Ya quickly hung up the phone and continued having dinner with Ai Linjiang. Hu Manli heard that Taiying International Insurance was rewarding agents with a car for achieving a great start to sales performance. Xue Xiaozhou was completely unaware of this.
Hu Manli asked Xue Xiaozhou to verify this matter at the company. When she learned that Xue Xiaozhou was working under her former apprentice, Tang Ling, she didn't ask further questions. Ai Linjiang guessed that Wu Ya was on the phone with her boyfriend. He didn't mind at all, instead, he valued Wu Ya's loyalty in relationships. Wu Ya admitted that she wanted to break up with her boyfriend because she saw no hope in him.
Xue Xiaozhou slept until midnight and suddenly received a message from Hu Manli. He was too scared to reply. Hu Manli, dressed beautifully, came knocking on the door. Xue Xiaozhou thought Hu Manli had improper intentions towards him and was too scared to make a sound. Hu Manli had no choice but to use her key to open the door. She was just there to get her live-streaming lights. Xue Xiaozhou was relieved after the false alarm.
Hu Manli did live streaming every night late. She asked Xue Xiaozhou to help hold the lights for her. Xue Xiaozhou was so cold he kept sneezing, forcing Hu Manli's live stream to be interrupted. The next morning, Hu Manli prepared breakfast and called Xue Xiaozhou up to go meet clients. Xue Xiaozhou complained endlessly. Hu Manli told him to take Ding Daer to school on his way.
Xue Xiaozhou couldn't help but complain about Hu Manli in front of Ding Daer. Ding Daer shared his secret tips for dealing with Hu Manli with him. Tang Ling publicly praised Xue Xiaozhou and asked him to share his experience. Xue Xiaozhou kept saying that both clients were cold calls he made. Tang Ling didn't believe him at all and was eager to know about the expert behind him. Xue Xiaozhou remained silent.
Tang Ling announced the company's decision: the agent who achieves the highest performance in the next three months will receive a luxury car. Tang Ling gave Xue Xiaozhou the office spot widely considered to have good Feng Shui and asked Yi Chang to help Xue Xiaozhou move his files. Yi Chang deliberately dropped the folders on the ground and was scolded by Tang Ling. Hu Manli deliberately chose the most prosperous Western restaurant in Shanghai.
She ordered the signature dim sum using only a 49 yuan coupon and also asked the waitstaff to help her take many photos. She posted them on her WeChat Moments to show off. Then, she successively invited her old clients to meet her there, only asking the waitstaff to change a teacup while the dim sum on the table remained untouched.
Hu Manli quickly met all the clients on her list and asked the waitstaff to pack the dim sum to go. The waitstaff could all tell that Hu Manli was using their restaurant to attract clients.
