> Hello, I'm At Your Service Recap
Dong Dong'en visited Ke Maoxu in the hospital, informing her colleagues that 1. 5 million yuan had appeared in the company account. She confirmed the funds were a genuine investment from Han's Group, secured by Han Chun. Despite the money's arrival, Han Chun was unreachable, which concerned Xie Yi and the others. They noted he hadn't answered calls since leaving to clear his head, yet had unexpectedly secured an investor.
A doctor then reported that Ke Maoxu's recovery was excellent and he could wake up at any time. Meanwhile, Su Qi, who was effectively forced into a long leave by Chairman Wan, returned to the office under the guise of collecting personal items. He was confronted by his replacement, Song Zhen, who called him a disposable "knife" in the chairman's hand and reminded him that his actions were subject to Wan's approval.
Before leaving, Su Qi retrieved something from a secure area containing confidential documents, remarking that "God is helping me." Concurrently, after seeing the court ruling confirming Ba'er Creative had lost its lawsuit against Dongshi, Lilian activated a prepared online smear campaign to release negative information and "take final action."
Shortly after, a barrage of malicious rumors flooded the internet, with posts and videos from alleged "insiders" falsely depicting Dong Dong'en as promiscuous and manipulative, accusing her of using relationships for professional gain. As netizens widely condemned her, the situation escalated. Dong Dong'en was verbally abused by strangers in public and, in one instance outside the hospital, was splashed with water by passersby who called her a "mistress." Xie Yi intervened, chasing the attackers away.
Lou Yuan, concerned for Dong Dong'en's safety, found her working at the dining saloon with Hai. Distressed by the online attacks, which had even exposed Dong Dong'en's home address, Lou Yuan suggested she move to a safe house he had arranged. However, Dong Dong'en firmly refused, stating she had done nothing wrong and would not hide like the "canary" they accused her of being.
She argued that the dining saloon needed her and expressed frustration over the passive role she felt she had taken in their relationship decisions. This difference in their approaches led to a significant disagreement. Later, Hai comforted Dong Dong'en, urging her to ignore the online negativity. Dong Dong'en also received a supportive phone call from her parents.
While her mother offered reassurance, her father advised her not to dwell on the comments but also voiced concern about the significant gap in social status between her and Lou Yuan, causing Dong Dong'en to cry. At the hospital, Xie Yi watched the online videos, visibly angered by the false accusations, which included a twisted version of Dong Dong'en rescuing a kitten being portrayed as animal abuse.
The sound from the videos seemed to reach the unconscious Ke Maoxu, who miraculously woke up. Upon waking, Ke Maoxu learned of the investment from Han's Group and became agitated. He explained that the company belonged to Han Chun's father, with whom Han Chun had cut ties years ago to start Ba'er Creative. Ke Maoxu deduced that to secure the funds, Han Chun must have agreed to his father's conditions.
Unable to reach him, the still-recovering Ke Maoxu insisted on going to Han's Group with Xie Yi and Ma Chengshu. There, Han Chun's father invited them to what he called a "farewell dinner," making it clear he looked down on Ba'er Creative and that Han Chun was back to take over the family business and get married. Despite the team's protests, he dismissed them and left with Han Chun.
Later, Lilian accompanied Lou Yuan to a business dinner where he drank heavily. Afterwards, Lilian took the intoxicated Lou Yuan to her home. Drunk, he repeatedly called out for "En'en." Lilian tried to deceive him by claiming to be Dong Dong'en, but he immediately recognized she was not. The next morning, Lou Yuan woke up at Lilian's place. She implied something had happened between them, but he saw through her pretense, telling her the "scheme" had failed.
When she asked why he rejected her, Lou Yuan stated that he doesn't base relationships on personal gain. He then told her to resign, revealing he knew she was behind the smear campaign. He pointed out that the detail of their names being engraved inside their engagement rings was known only to their families and her, confirming her involvement. When Lilian claimed he had no proof, Lou Yuan simply warned her to "try and see."
Taking action to help Ba'er Creative, Lou Yuan met with Han Chun's father. He praised the team's professionalism and dedication, citing Ke Maoxu's injury at the construction site as an example of their commitment. Out of respect for Lou Yuan, Han's father agreed to visit their office. Upon arrival, he remained dismissive, but the team made an impassioned plea. They presented their work, defended Han Chun's capability in building a company from scratch, and stressed his happiness with them.
Dong Dong'en emphasized that the right to pursue happiness is more valuable than wealth and that Ba'er Creative was incomplete without Han Chun. The team chanted their slogan in unison. In response, Han's father offered Dong Dong'en some cryptic advice about moving forward and finding a place where she could truly shine, before asking Han Chun to leave with him. As he left, Han Chun asked his colleagues to thank Lou Yuan for his help, regardless of the outcome.
