A Better Life Episode 2 Recap
> A Better Life Recap
Hu Manli found out that Ding Zhiyuan and Qiu Lisu were having an affair. Qiu Lisu not only wrote love letters to Ding Zhiyuan but also funded his book club. Hu Manli embarrassed Ding Zhiyuan in public and wanted to confront Qiu Lisu aggressively, but she was unexpectedly humiliated by Qiu Lisu, who even brought up the fact that they had not had conjugal life for many years. The more Hu Manli thought about it, the angrier she became.
She was unwilling to give up Ding Zhiyuan to Qiu Lisu. Zhong Ning also cheered her on. Hu Manli asked her father to take Ding Daer back to her parents' home; she was going to start a family defense battle. Ding Zhiyuan didn't want to go home. He sat downstairs alone, lost in thought. Qiu Lisu advised Ding Zhiyuan to break up with Hu Manli soon, saying she would always wait for him.
Ding Zhiyuan felt sorry for his son Ding Daer. Ding Zhiyuan went home reluctantly. Hu Manli prepared a candlelight dinner and deliberately changed into a sexy dress. Hu Manli tried every way to seduce Ding Zhiyuan, but he avoided her like the plague. Hu Manli actively threw herself into his arms, but Ding Zhiyuan desperately dodged. Hu Manli promised to forgive him as long as he left Qiu Lisu. Hu Manli clung to Ding Zhiyuan, but he didn't buy it.
He pushed her away and then hid in the study. Hu Manli was enraged and rushed into the study to make a scene with Ding Zhiyuan. In a fit of pique, she threw all the books on the bookshelf onto the floor. Ding Zhiyuan reached his limit and admitted that he had fallen in love with Qiu Lisu. Hu Manli screamed at him, cursing him for being ungrateful.
She had worked so hard for this family, and now that Ding Zhiyuan had achieved success, he was starting to dislike her. Ding Zhiyuan was so ashamed by the scolding that he impulsively wanted to divorce Hu Manli. Hu Manli adamantly refused. She begged Ding Zhiyuan desperately not to leave her, but Ding Zhiyuan didn't listen at all, repeatedly claiming that he and Qiu Lisu were truly in love. Then he broke free from Hu Manli's entanglement and left home.
Hu Manli looked at the messy home and thought of her past loving relationship with Ding Zhiyuan, feeling very uneasy. As soon as Xue Xiaozhou got off work, he went to the hospital to visit his mother, and then went on a date with his girlfriend Wu Ya. Wu Ya heard that Qiu Lisu was going to sell his family's house and told Xue Xiaozhou to ask Qiu Lisu for more money. Xue Xiaozhou didn't want to sell his home.
Wu Ya complained that he didn't earn enough, so Xue Xiaozhou decided to work outside sales to earn more money. After finishing class, Ding Zhiyuan opened his phone and received a message from Hu Manli. He rushed to the agreed-upon location, which was where Ding Zhiyuan had proposed to Hu Manli back then. Unexpectedly, Hu Manli had also called Qiu Lisu there. Hu Manli advised Ding Zhiyuan not to be deceived by Qiu Lisu's sweet words.
Ding Zhiyuan didn't want to listen to Hu Manli's nagging and grabbed Qiu Lisu to leave. Hu Manli dragged Qiu Lisu to the riverbank. She wanted to prove her feelings for Ding Zhiyuan by dying. Hu Manli jumped into the river. Fortunately, someone jumped in and rescued her. Hu Manli watched with her own eyes as Ding Zhiyuan and Qiu Lisu left hand in hand. She was completely disheartened. Hu Manli, distraught, walked home barefoot.
When Hu Manli woke up and looked around the empty house, she felt an unprecedented confusion and helplessness. Hu Manli wiped clean each of the medals and trophies she had won over the past twenty years. The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and finally, she burst into tears. Hu Manli didn't want to make her father sad, so she asked Ding Zhiyuan to temporarily hide the fact that they had broken up.
Hu Manli vowed to make Ding Zhiyuan regret leaving her. Hu Manli turned her grief into motivation and immediately threw herself into intense work. Xue Xiaozhou found that the documents submitted by Hu Manli's client Ai Zhonghua were incomplete and decided not to process the claim. Hu Manli came to argue with him. Xue Xiaozhou insisted that Ai Zhonghua must complete the documents first. Hu Manli actively added his WeChat and gave him a discount coupon.
Xue Xiaozhou insisted on doing business according to the rules. Hu Manli was so angry that she gritted her teeth, severely reprimanded Xue Xiaozhou, and then called her client Ai Zhonghua to explain.
