In Beijing, Ding Zhitong and Gan Yang arrived together. In the car, Gan Yang handed Ding Zhitong the water she used to like and asked whether she had been here after graduation. Ding Zhitong openly said she had, implying that what happened with Gan Yang hadn’t affected her emotionally. After his meeting, Gan Yang dozed off in the car and unknowingly leaned on Ding Zhitong’s shoulder.

Ding Zhitong recalled the time when she had fallen asleep and Gan Yang shielded her from the sun, so she also reached out to block the light for him, and even instinctively reached to touch his nose—only to be seen by the driver. But when Gan Yang woke up, Ding Zhitong had already put her guarded demeanor back on. When Gan Yang asked her about Feng Sheng, Ding Zhitong didn’t give a clear answer.

Song Mingmei found out that Deng Baiting had cheated with another woman and rushed over to expose him on the spot. She warned Deng Baiting to prepare for her divorce lawsuit. At the same time, Gan Yang’s driver told him he had seen Ding Zhitong trying to touch his face and warned him not to let her take advantage. But Gan Yang was overjoyed and asked the driver to investigate everything about Ding Zhitong.

The next day, when he learned she was unmarried, he was ecstatic. Hearing that the Wang family intended to invest in Gan Yang’s company, Shu Chi’s President Zhan immediately sent someone to contact them, determined to secure the deal before Gan Yang did. Gan Yang invited Ding Zhitong to dinner, but she wasn’t sure whether she should go, so she called Song Mingmei. Song Mingmei told her to dress beautifully to charm him—but not to go soft-hearted.

The next day, Ding Zhitong set out to find Gan Yang, but during the taxi ride, she heard a woman crying on the radio about her boyfriend of three years suddenly disappearing. Feeling the same pain, Ding Zhitong canceled the appointment. Later, Ding Zhitong visited the place where she attended university. The place was filled with memories of her and Gan Yang, and she was overcome with emotion.

Suddenly, it began to pour, and she ran into a convenience store for shelter—where she ran into Gan Yang, who had come to shop. Only then did Gan Yang realize that Ding Zhitong had come but didn’t show up for the dinner. Ding Zhitong didn’t want to bring up the past and resisted Gan Yang, insisting she was a married woman. They sat at different spots in the store.

A girl approached Ding Zhitong, recognizing her as a senior and said she believed Ding Zhitong and Gan Yang would reconcile, because even though Gan Yang sat outside, he never left—he was worried Ding Zhitong would get wet. Ding Zhitong looked at Gan Yang. They stared at each other, but neither spoke. Ding Zhitong unknowingly drank too much, and the girl called Gan Yang over.

He helped Ding Zhitong back to his place, only to find that his password was her birthday. The drunken Ding Zhitong warned him not to use her birthday. Gan Yang agreed indulgently. Ding Zhitong, feeling parched, asked for water. When Gan Yang returned with it, she was already asleep. Her dress had slipped, revealing the same one she had prepared back then to meet Liu Yongjuan. Gan Yang smiled at the sight.

When Ding Zhitong woke up, Gan Yang had already prepared breakfast and even laid out his clothes for her. Ding Zhitong was worried she might have said something inappropriate while drunk and asked Gan Yang not to mind. Gan Yang kept staring at her, making her shift the topic to work. Gan Yang interrupted her and reminded her that everything he had now—especially the running shoe matrix—was based on the plan he had once told her about.

He wouldn’t let anything interfere with it, but he hoped she could join some of his company’s financing projects—though not this one. Ding Zhitong was upset and said she didn’t want to continue the conversation. Gan Yang pointed out that he knew she wasn’t actually married to Feng Sheng and explained that he hadn’t changed at all—he had never forgotten her and had only ever loved her.

Ding Zhitong lied, saying she and Feng Sheng had a secret marriage, so it was no surprise no one knew. Gan Yang exposed her recent behavior toward him and said it proved she loved him. But Ding Zhitong denied it all and insisted it was just an act to secure the financing project—even her getting drunk was fake. If it weren’t for the training box, she said, she wouldn’t even want to see Gan Yang.

Ding Zhitong stormed out of Gan Yang’s home. Helpless, Gan Yang had his driver take her back to the hotel. But neither of them could calm their hearts. Ding Zhitong kept thinking of Gan Yang’s confession, while Gan Yang couldn’t stop replaying Ding Zhitong’s hurtful words—that everything was just for the training box. Ding Zhitong recalled the painful image of her mother dying in the hospital bed.

Though the two were in different places, their tears fell at the same time. Song Mingmei came to pick Ding Zhitong up, only to realize that Gan Yang had been following all along. Ding Zhitong didn’t bother acknowledging him and kept walking, but they ended up arriving at the same place—Manhattan Residences. Gan Yang explained he lived there. But this was once Ding Zhitong’s dream. She believed Gan Yang had done it on purpose, and they had another unpleasant exchange.

Song Mingmei also told Ding Zhitong about Deng Baiting’s affair and hoped she could help take care of her child, Yulin. Ding Zhitong hugged her to comfort her. Song Mingmei let out a long sigh, disappointed that what she thought was a good judgment turned out to be wrong. The next morning, when Ding Zhitong went running, she bumped into Gan Yang, who was also out for a jog. They looked at each other, but said nothing.
