Yu Shishi took Huo Yanzong out and brought him for a facial treatment. Huo Yanzong, who hadn't slept all night, quickly fell asleep. Yu Shishi instructed the staff not to wake him up and had them do a soothing treatment for him. Although Yu Shishi had work today and had rushed out from the set, her manager was probably going crazy by now. When Huo Yanzong woke up, he saw that Yu Shishi had applied a band-aid to the wound on his hand. He was touched but ended up saying many hurtful things to Yu Shishi. Yu Shishi was completely hurt by his words and left crying. Huo Yanzong watched her walk away and thought to himself that Yu Shishi hated herself, but it was better than loving herself.

Mother Lin Quan called Xu Lai, but Xu Lai didn't answer. Jin Shichuan persuaded Xu Lai, and she decided to go home and reconcile with her mother. Lin Quan was furious, but Xu Lai managed to keep her emotions in check and firmly expressed her commitment to Jin Shichuan. Lin Quan couldn't understand why she insisted on being with Jin Shichuan. Without thinking, Xu Lai blurted out that Jin Shichuan had saved her in Huining ten years ago. It was then that the elderly couple learned that when they divorced ten years ago, Xu Lai had run away to Huining for some peace of mind. However, she ended up encountering an earthquake and was trapped in the ruins for a day and a night. It was Jin Shichuan who saved her. Lin Quan cried uncontrollably as she looked at a family photo. She had always done things for the sake of her daughter, but in doing so, she had been hurting her. Xu Chengyun also told Lin Quan that he had visited the fire station and learned that Jin Shichuan had saved Xu Lai twice before.

Xu Lai talked to Jin Shichuan through the iron fence, informing him that her mission had failed. She had argued with her mother after only a few words and now regretted it. Sometimes, Xu Lai couldn't understand why people always vent their worst emotions on the closest ones. Jin Shichuan said that perhaps it was because the closest ones had no reservations. Xu Lai should communicate more with Lin Quan. Jin Shichuan asked about her parents' situation, and Jin's grandfather learned that Xu Lai's mother opposed Jin Shichuan's relationship with Xu Lai. He decided to personally intervene for his grandson. The next day, Grandpa Jin visited Xu Lai's parents. As a retired military man and with Jin Shichuan's father being a firefighter, Grandpa Jin's perspective on the profession had gradually changed due to Jin Shichuan. He pleaded with Xu Lai's parents to give Jin Shichuan a chance.

Jin Shichuan and everyone were playing basketball when Xu Lai told him that her mother's attitude had changed after Grandpa's visit, and in a couple of days, he would be invited to their house. That day, Xu Lai brought Jin Shichuan home, and he was very nervous about meeting her parents again. Fortunately, with the support of Xu Chengyun and Xu Lai, Jin Shichuan had an opportunity to present himself in front of Lin Quan. Lin Quan softened her stance and allowed Jin Shichuan to have dinner. This time, Lin Quan had agreed to Xu Lai being in a relationship with Jin Shichuan, but she still had some reservations and wanted to continue observing Jin Shichuan. After dinner, Xu Lai's parents went back home, and Jin Shichuan accompanied Xu Lai to pack her things. Jin Shichuan's home was like a safe haven for Xu Lai, where she could always find comfort whenever something happened.

The house was empty, so Xu Lai printed many photos she had taken of Jin Shichuan and hung them on the wall. Jin Shichuan took a picture of her with the photo wall behind, and the last photo was a picture of them together. Jin Shichuan kissed Xu Lai's cheek. At work, Xu Lai maintained a polite and distant demeanor towards him. Soon, Team Leader Qin was going to take a position in the provincial TV station, leaving his position vacant. He recommended Xu Lai as his successor to the higher-ups. During this evaluation period, Xu Lai didn't aim to stand out but hoped not to make any mistakes. Meanwhile, the list of interns being promoted was also about to be announced. Lu Fangqi sent a voice message to Zang Qiu, which was overheard by Jin Shichuan.
