Le Coup de Foudre Recap
Episode 1 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo have been married for 4 years and are deeply in love. Sitting together, they resumed their daily playful teasing and bickering, and reminisced about the past. Flashback to 2013, Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo were deskmates in high school. They secretly liked each other. Yan Mo once confessed his feelings to Zhao Qiaoyi publicly, but Zhao Qiaoyi rejected him with heartbreak.
After graduation, Yan Mo went to study abroad in England, and from then on, the two lost contact. This waiting for a reunion lasted for 6 years in the blink of an eye. After graduating from university, Zhao Qiaoyi joined a TV station as a director. Director Hu of the TV station organized a meeting for staff to discuss a youthful romance drama. In the meeting, Zhao Qiaoyi shared her views and ideas sincerely based on her personal experience.
Hao Wuyi is Zhao Qiaoyi's best friend. She told Zhao Qiaoyi there would be a class reunion this Saturday, and they agreed to go together. During their chat, Hao Wuyi also revealed news about Yan Mo to Zhao Qiaoyi, telling her that Yan Mo had never changed his phone number since studying abroad in England.
Hao Wuyi speculated that Yan Mo must still have feelings for Zhao Qiaoyi and was waiting for her, which was why he hadn't changed his number. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, spoke against her true feelings and refused to admit it. That night, Zhao Qiaoyi kept staring blankly at her phone screen. Finally, she mustered the courage to send a message to Yan Mo, but received no reply for a long time. Zhao Qiaoyi felt that her action was humiliating herself.
At this moment, Yan Mo in England was preparing for an important bracelet launch event. But he suddenly found his wallet was missing. He abandoned the launch event and frantically searched for his wallet because it contained a photo of him and Zhao Qiaoyi when they were studying. Hao Wuyi anxiously called Zhao Qiaoyi, asking her to immediately check the messages in the high school QQ class group.
Zhao Qiaoyi opened it and found the students inside were talking about Yan Mo returning to China and gossiping about her and Yan Mo's past. Hao Wuyi gave Zhao Qiaoyi confidence, hoping she could seize the opportunity to rekindle her relationship with Yan Mo. Zhao Qiaoyi was chatting with her older brother Zhao Guanchao outside. Zhao Qiaoyi was afraid of seeing Yan Mo at the class reunion, so she asked her brother to accompany her. Zhao Guanchao refused.
Finally, the two played around and went back home. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived home, Zhao Guanchao was severely scolded by their mother, who blamed him for playing around and coming home late every day. Zhao Guanchao, however, lied that he went to pick up Zhao Qiaoyi from work. Zhao Guanchao winked at Zhao Qiaoyi for help.
Zhao Qiaoyi used Zhao Guanchao accompanying her to the class reunion as a condition, and they sang along with each other, helping Zhao Guanchao get away with it in front of their mother. The next day, Zhao Qiaoyi was uncontrollably nervous because she was going to the class reunion and worried about seeing Yan Mo. She stayed home pretending to be sick, reluctant to leave for the reunion. This was seen through by her brother Zhao Guanchao.
Finally, he dragged her to the class reunion. At the reunion, everyone gathered together to catch up and gossip. Zhao Qiaoyi originally thought Yan Mo would come but found that he did not appear at the class reunion. Zhao Qiaoyi initially thought working as a director at the TV station meant interviewing young talented individuals, but unexpectedly, it was just writing melodramatic scripts about everyday life.
Furthermore, when the TV station was short-staffed, she had to personally go on stage to act as a performer. This time, Zhao Qiaoyi had to go on stage to play an abandoned pregnant woman. After the performance, Zhao Qiaoyi went off stage to rest and chat with colleagues. At this time, another colleague from the station, Annie, revealed to Zhao Qiaoyi that the station would launch a new program, an interview program interviewing celebrities from Nanchuan.
Zhao Qiaoyi was excited when she heard this and went to find Director Hu, asking to be transferred to the new program with him. However, Director Hu, for Zhao Qiaoyi's development, asked her to stay at the station. Because his father was unwell and hospitalized, Yan Mo returned to China to visit him. Yan Mo's father told Yan Mo that a TV station in Nanchuan wanted to interview him, and Yan Mo's father had agreed first and informed him later.
Yan Mo was initially unwilling but had no choice but to agree. In the hospital room, Yan Mo and his father watched TV programs together. Yan Mo immediately recognized Zhao Qiaoyi's figure on the TV program. Seeing Zhao Qiaoyi on the program appearing pregnant and tragically recounting her life experiences, Yan Mo thought all of this was real and rushed to the TV station worriedly to inquire about Zhao Qiaoyi's situation from the staff.
He unexpectedly discovered that Zhao Qiaoyi was just a staff member of this program and immediately felt relieved. Zhao Qiaoyi mustered the courage to call Yan Mo, but a strange woman's voice came from the other end. Zhao Qiaoyi thought it was Yan Mo's new girlfriend. On the day of the interview, the host of the TV station suddenly fell and was sent to the hospital. Director Hu asked Zhao Qiaoyi to fill in.
Zhao Qiaoyi was temporarily put on the spot and felt a bit uneasy. At this time, Yan Mo had arrived at the station and was sitting upright in the designated seat. It was then that Zhao Qiaoyi was surprised to find that the guest being interviewed was Yan Mo, whom she hadn't seen for many years. Zhao Qiaoyi tried hard to force herself to face Yan Mo calmly. After a polite greeting, the program interview began.
During the interview, there was a sudden problem with the microphone on site. While the staff were fixing it, the two took the opportunity to have a quiet chat. Zhao Qiaoyi asked about Yan Mo's recent situation, but Yan Mo responded lukewarmly. Yan Mo asked Zhao Qiaoyi why she refused him back then. Zhao Qiaoyi seemed to have something difficult to say and delayed answering him. Yan Mo then directly turned around and left.
Zhao Qiaoyi looked at his resolute departing back, heartbroken but helpless. Yan Mo returned home and received a package mailed from England. Inside was the wallet he had previously lost. Yan Mo opened the wallet and silently stared at the photo of him and Zhao Qiaoyi together. Memories of the past appeared before his eyes scene by scene. At the same time, Zhao Qiaoyi was also holding the same photo and staring at it blankly.
Episode 2 Recap
Time went back to 2018 again. Zhao Qiaoyi went shopping with Zhao Guanchao. As soon as Zhao Qiaoyi returned home, she started complaining to her husband Yan Mo about how Zhao Guanchao bullied her. Yan Mo doted on his wife immensely. To make Zhao Qiaoyi happy, he arranged to play games with Zhao Guanchao and deliberately crushed Zhao Guanchao in the game to vent Zhao Qiaoyi's frustration. Zhao Qiaoyi was very satisfied with this.
The two then affectionately began to reminisce. The memory flashed back to their school days in 2006. At the beginning of the new school year, students chose seats in order of their academic performance. Zhao Qiaoyi, being a complete academic underachiever, could only choose her seat last. By the time it was her turn, there were only a few seats left. In the end, she had no other choice but to share a desk with Yan Mo.
Zhao Qiaoyi was wrongly accused of cheating on an exam. She couldn't explain herself. She was required to take the test paper home for a signature, but she didn't want her mother to know, so she asked her brother Zhao Guanchao to sign it for her. Unexpectedly, Zhao Qiaoyi's mother found out in the end, and her mother severely reprimanded Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Guanchao often flirted during his school days.
To shake off a girl who liked him, he lied that his sister was seriously ill as an excuse to break up with her. Afterwards, the girl's brother brought a group of people to cause trouble for Zhao Guanchao. Unexpectedly, they didn't find Zhao Guanchao, but instead found his sister. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi were scared by the intimidating look of the few people.
Just then, Fei Dachuan, a male classmate of Zhao Qiaoyi, suddenly appeared like a hero saving the damsels. Afterwards, the two were very grateful to Fei Dachuan, but Fei Dachuan used this to demand money from them. Yan Mo proactively asked to be in the same group as Zhao Qiaoyi for the physics lab class. But when doing the experiment, Yan Mo didn't let Zhao Qiaoyi do anything at all and completed the experiment by himself.
Yan Mo was always taciturn. Zhao Qiaoyi always initiated conversations with Yan Mo, but Yan Mo remained calm and silent, ignoring her. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi unexpectedly saw Fei Dachuan extorting Yan Mo. The two returned to the classroom, and Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly discovered that Yan Mo's report had been soaked by the cola she bought, and she was immediately at a loss.
Afterwards, Zhao Qiaoyi thought about asking her brother Zhao Guanchao to help her redo a lab report. Zhao Guanchao, however, claimed he was busy and ignored her. Zhao Qiaoyi had no choice but to complete the physics lab report by herself, but facing the experiment procedure, she was at her wit's end alone. Just then, Yan Mo appeared. Zhao Qiaoyi swallowed her pride and asked Yan Mo for help. Finally, the two collaborated to complete the experiment procedure.
The lab report was ultimately completed by Zhao Qiaoyi independently at home. After they finished the experiment, Fei Dachuan appeared again. Zhao Qiaoyi thought Fei Dachuan was looking for trouble with Yan Mo, so Zhao Qiaoyi suggested they run away together. However, Yan Mo did not run away but left with Fei Dachuan. It turned out that Fei Dachuan and Yan Mo were relatives; in terms of seniority, Fei Dachuan was Yan Mo's uncle.
Early the next morning, Zhao Qiaoyi was very worried about Yan Mo and cautiously asked if Fei Dachuan had caused him any trouble last night, but Yan Mo did not respond to her. The classmates in the class were discussing Zhao Qiaoyi completing the lab report independently. Everyone thought Zhao Qiaoyi's report must have been copied. Facing the classmates' doubts, Zhao Qiaoyi did not refute them, pretending not to care and just smiling it off. At this moment, Yan Mo heard everything from outside the classroom and stepped forward forcefully to defend Zhao Qiaoyi.
Episode 3 Recap
2018, Zhao Qiaoyi came home late to accompany her heartbroken best friend. She returned home cautiously, only to be caught red-handed by her husband Yan Mo. Zhao Qiaoyi deliberately said a bunch of flattering things to her husband to escape his blame. Although Yan Mo's words were harsh, he still cared about Zhao Qiaoyi at all times. The scene flashed back to 2006 again.
Zhao Qiaoyi, Hao Wuyi, and Fei Dachuan were kept behind to clean because of their poor performance. They felt very unbalanced about this. In the end, they didn't expect to cause big trouble due to a moment of impulsiveness. The three of them were cleaning the principal's office when someone came to deliver the principal's custom-made dentures.
Fei Dachuan and Hao Wuyi had a clever idea and planned to steal the principal's dentures together to retaliate against the principal, and they kept encouraging Zhao Qiaoyi to participate. In the end, the three of them accidentally took the school's official seal by mistake. The principal was furious and claimed that he would expel the three of them. At this time, Yan Mo appeared as Fei Dachuan's family member, while Fei Dachuan was very dissatisfied with the principal's punishment.
He told the principal the dissatisfaction he had suppressed in his heart, and argued with him about the principal's behavior of dividing students into different classes. Finally, the principal made a concession, as long as they could get into the top 100 in the school, this matter would be written off. Yan Mo analyzed to them from the side that it would be more difficult than ascending to heaven for them to enter the top 100.
In the end, the head teacher, Teacher Gao, personally interceded with the principal on their behalf, as long as they could improve 100 places in this monthly exam, they would be forgiven. Hao Wuyi called home to explain the situation, saying that her mother had already hired a tutor for her, but Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan were at a loss.
Fei Dachuan had no choice but to pull Zhao Qiaoyi to Yan Mo's house, asking Yan Mo to tutor them. Yan Mo refused clearly, but Fei Dachuan used Yan Mo's puppy "Grandpa" as a threat, but Yan Mo was still indifferent. Just when the two were hopeless, Yan Mo suddenly spoke, temporarily changed his mind and agreed to help them with tutoring. Yan Mo analyzed for them and formulated a strict review plan for them.
With Yan Mo's supervision, the two were working hard to memorize the text while eating, walking, and playing ball. Hao Wuyi's tutor was Da Xiong. Because her deskmate had appendicitis, he replaced him to tutor Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi recognized at a glance that Da Xiong was the person who had stopped her and Zhao Qiaoyi when he wanted to find Zhao Guanchao for trouble before.
Da Xiong claimed that he was also a poor student and that he was only tutoring her to make money. In the end, tutoring couldn't continue, so Hao Wuyi asked Da Xiong to take her to the bar. The two came to the bar, and Da Xiong's friend asked Hao Wuyi to drink. Wuyi pushed and refused to drink. This scene happened to be seen by Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao immediately stepped forward and pulled Wuyi away.
At this time, Da Xiong recognized Zhao Guanchao, so he asked the brothers in the bar to beat Zhao Guanchao together. Zhao Guanchao pulled Wuyi and ran away quickly. Wuyi blamed Zhao Guanchao for making her lose her tutor. At this time, Zhao Guanchao offered to tutor her and asked Wuyi to pay him double the tutoring fee. Fei Dachuan and Zhao Qiaoyi were tutoring at Yan Mo's house.
Fei Dachuan was so hungry in the middle that Zhao Qiaoyi offered to cook for them, but Yan Mo said that there could be no oily smoke in the house, and then took out sandwiches from the refrigerator for them to eat. Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly concluded that it was difficult to get along with someone like Yan Mo, so Fei Dachuan immediately began to complain about Yan Mo and talked to Zhao Qiaoyi about Yan Mo's family and his childhood.
Teacher Gao found Yan Mo alone to talk to him, and learned that he was helping Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan with tutoring, reminding him to do what he could and not delay his own study. The three of them studied hard during this time. Maybe they were too tired. Just when Yan Mo was giving them a lecture, the two of them actually fell asleep while listening.
Yan Mo instantly had a moment of heartbeat when he looked at Zhao Qiaoyi, who was sleeping quietly. When Zhao Qiaoyi was sleeping and about to fall on Yan Mo, Yan Mo suddenly bounced up and dodged, and then Zhao Qiaoyi woke up and got up to pack her things and prepared to go home. After Zhao Qiaoyi left, Yan Mo turned on the TV and saw the news that there had been frequent cases of stalking and rape recently.
Recalling that Fei Dachuan had also mentioned this matter before, Yan Mo immediately worried about Zhao Qiaoyi, who had just left alone, so he immediately chased after her. Yan Mo caught up with Zhao Qiaoyi and escorted her back home. On the day before the exam was approaching, Zhao Guanchao did not tutor Hao Wuyi again, but took her to the internet cafe to repair the computer, saying that it would let her work to promote physical and mental relaxation.
Zhao Guanchao was full of confidence in his tutoring for Hao Wuyi. On the day of the exam, Fei Dachuan took out Yan Mo's photo, regarded him as the god of the exam, and took other students to worship Yan Mo's photo at the entrance of the exam room, hoping to help them pass the exam. Hao Wuyi hid aside and took out Zhao Guanchao's photo to pray and worship. This scene of Hao Wuyi was seen by Zhao Guanchao.
He smiled slightly when he looked at Hao Wuyi's silly appearance. Yan Mo left the exam room early to go to the store to buy something, and brought Zhao Qiaoyi's favorite Coke. Zhao Qiaoyi was the last to leave the exam room. Yan Mo was waiting hard outside alone. When Zhao Qiaoyi saw Yan Mo, she ran to Yan Mo happily and checked the answers with him. Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to drink the Coke that Yan Mo bought. Yan Mo took the initiative to open the ring for her. This action made Zhao Qiaoyi feel flattered and stunned in place.
Episode 4 Recap
The three walked to the results announcement board. At first, everyone was hesitant to look at the results on the board. Finally, unable to resist, they searched for their names. Seeing their names on the list, the three were overjoyed and danced with excitement. Meanwhile, Yan Mo watched them from not far away. When Zhao Qiaoyi saw Yan Mo, she happily rushed over and shouted thanks to him.
After this exam, seating arrangements were made again, and Zhao Qiaoyi chose to continue sitting at the same desk as Yan Mo. When Yan Mo went shopping at the supermarket, he subconsciously picked up a Coke when he saw it. He couldn't stop thinking about Zhao Qiaoyi. They used to play around with a bottle of Coke, intentionally lowering it little by little from upstairs, but accidentally spilled it on a teacher.
The two quickly fled the scene, and as they ran, they subconsciously held hands. The head teacher, Teacher Gao, used the fines collected from students for being late this semester as class funds and discussed the use of these funds with the students. Teacher Gao suggested buying all books to set up a reading corner, but this was met with protest from the students. The students suggested going roller skating or singing. Each side had their own opinion.
Finally, the class monitor suggested going on a picnic together, which received unanimous approval. During the class picnic, the class monitor brought grilled meat to Yan Mo, but Yan Mo refused due to his germophobia. The class monitor instantly felt a moment of awkwardness. Just then, Zhao Qiaoyi ran over to help mediate the awkward atmosphere. Hao Wuyi ran into Da Xiong again during the picnic. She was very happy to see Da Xiong.
This scene was seen by Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao intentionally disrupted their meeting. Hao Wuyi was afraid that Zhao Guanchao would reveal that she was with Da Xiong, so she agreed to one of Zhao Guanchao's requests. Zhao Guanchao asked Hao Wuyi to help him ask Yu Miaomiao to see a movie. Hao Wuyi and Yu Miaomiao were rivals, but Zhao Guanchao asked her, so she could only agree to help.
During the picnic, Yan Mo accidentally took a sip of the vodka Fei Dachuan had secretly brought, and became a little intoxicated. He found Zhao Qiaoyi and chatted with her. Zhao Qiaoyi was a little surprised to see Yan Mo behaving abnormally. Finally, she learned that Yan Mo was drunk. After the picnic ended, Yan Mo started to be unreasonable in the car. Zhao Qiaoyi took careful care of Yan Mo.
Fei Dachuan discovered that the drunk Yan Mo only listened to Zhao Qiaoyi. His stepfather, Tian Weimin, was bored because his wife Zhao Suying was ignoring him, so he picked up a psychology book and started to study it. When Zhao Guanchao and his sister came home, he suddenly called out to them and asked them to study this psychology book with him. The two were taken aback.
They humored him for a bit and then fled the scene, leaving their stepfather to study alone. That evening, Zhao Qiaoyi came to Zhao Guanchao's room to borrow his math homework, but she saw the gift Zhao Guanchao had specially prepared for Yu Miaomiao on the table. Inside were various promises Zhao Guanchao had painstakingly written for Yu Miaomiao. Zhao Qiaoyi instantly felt a pang of envy in her heart for her brother's thoughtfulness towards the person he liked.
Yan Mo received a call from Zhao Qiaoyi early in the morning, inviting him to go shopping with her. It was then that Yan Mo fully woke up and remembered everything that happened yesterday. He couldn't help but sigh over the foolish things he did while drunk yesterday. Zhao Guanchao asked Yu Miaomiao out, gave her the gift, and confessed his feelings deeply.
Yu Miaomiao was very happy with his thoughtfulness, but then Yu Miaomiao suddenly badmouthed his sister, Zhao Qiaoyi, in front of Zhao Guanchao, saying that Zhao Qiaoyi hung out with Hao Wuyi because Zhao Qiaoyi's family was rich. Zhao Guanchao's face instantly darkened when he heard this, and he immediately stood up for his sister domineeringly. He took back the gift he gave to Yu Miaomiao without hesitation and turned to leave, leaving Yu Miaomiao alone.
Zhao Qiaoyi's mother, Zhao Suying, was doing housework, while her stepfather, Tian Weimin, was watching TV on the side. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother suggested that he help with the housework. Tian Weimin agreed but didn't move for a long time. Zhao Suying became furious. Tian Weimin found an excuse to go out to buy something to calm both of them down. Tian Weimin went out to buy a light bulb and sat alone on the steps outside the house feeling unhappy.
Just then, Zhao Guanchao saw him and sat down to talk with his stepfather. During their conversation, Tian Weimin suddenly remembered that today was his and his wife's wedding anniversary. He immediately went home, found Zhao Suying, and said he bought her a gift. Tian Weimin wanted to give the light bulb he bought to Zhao Suying as a gift, but Zhao Guanchao couldn't stand to watch.
He replaced the light bulb with the exquisite notebook he took back from Yu Miaomiao. Zhao Suying was very moved when she saw the notebook, thinking Tian Weimin had prepared it. The two reconciled as before. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo went shopping at the mall. Zhao Qiaoyi helped Yan Mo pick out a tie. Since Yan Mo didn't know how to tie a tie, Zhao Qiaoyi personally stepped forward to help him.
With the close contact, Yan Mo was flustered for a moment. He suddenly yanked off the tie, left Zhao Qiaoyi behind, and ran away. As soon as Yan Mo got home, to calm himself down, he took another sip of Fei Dachuan's vodka. Zhao Qiaoyi followed him to Yan Mo's house and gave him a shirt as a return for tutoring her.
Because Yan Mo had been drinking, he was in high spirits and kept Fei Dachuan awake until late at night. Fei Dachuan was on the verge of collapse. Finally, after much effort, he managed to persuade Yan Mo to go back to his room.
Episode 5 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi had a strange habit; she had to read when she used the toilet. This time, she didn't bring a book and ended up reading the instructions on the shampoo bottle cover to cover. Afterwards, she ran to discuss with her husband Yan Mo about wanting to put a bookshelf in the toilet, but Yan Mo refused outright. So Zhao Qiaoyi came up with another plan. Before she could even speak, Yan Mo knew what she was thinking.
Zhao Qiaoyi thought of putting a toilet in the study room, but Yan Mo still clearly rejected her bizarre idea. Time returned to 2006. Zhao Qiaoyi felt that Yan Mo had been gradually distancing himself from her recently, so she took the initiative to find him and ask for clarification. However, Yan Mo made an excuse, saying he was doing research on human experiments and said a bunch of things Zhao Qiaoyi couldn't understand.
Zhao Qiaoyi thought she was overthinking it and was about to turn and leave, but she almost fell. Yan Mo, however, was quick and pulled Zhao Qiaoyi in time. Everyone was staring at Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo, so Yan Mo immediately let go of her hand and walked away directly. Afterwards, Yan Mo felt guilty. During class, he quietly talked to Zhao Guanchao and asked him how to apologize to a girl.
Zhao Guanchao suggested taking the girl to the movies or an amusement park, etc. Da Xiong and Hao Wuyi went on a date and played video games together. Da Xiong suggested picking her up after school tomorrow, but Hao Wuyi refused. She was afraid that Zhao Qiaoyi would find out about her dating Da Xiong, which made Da Xiong very angry. Tian Weimin came home late from working overtime and was scolded by his wife Zhao Suying.
Zhao Suying was worried that her husband would be too tired from working overtime every day and that his health couldn't take it. Zhao Guanchao and Zhao Qiaoyi were fooling around on the side, but Tian Weimin and his wife ignored them and showed their affection as if no one else was there. Hao Wuyi went to Yu Miaomiao to get a reading on her friendship with Zhao Qiaoyi.
Yu Miaomiao, however, said their relationship was very dangerous and predicted that Zhao Qiaoyi would have terrible luck if she stayed with Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi felt very guilty about this and bought a lot of amulets to pray for Zhao Qiaoyi's safety. Zhao Qiaoyi found Hao Wuyi's actions a bit exaggerated but was also very touched by them.
Zhao Qiaoyi had been frequently interacting with Yu Miaomiao lately, which made Hao Wuyi a bit sensitive and jealous, but she wasn't angry. Yan Mo's mother called and showed him warm concern, asking about the dog Grandpa's situation. Then she told him that she couldn't celebrate his birthday with him this year and asked him to spend it with his classmates. Yan Mo felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this.
The next day, Yan Mo took out two movie tickets, intending to go see a movie with Zhao Qiaoyi, but Fei Dachuan saw them and snatched them away. Fei Dachuan then took advantage of the situation, using Yan Mo's tickets to invite Zhao Qiaoyi to watch the movie with him, while Yan Mo looked very unhappy. At the movie theater, while Fei Dachuan and Zhao Qiaoyi were watching the movie, they happened to run into Da Xiong and Hao Wuyi.
Da Xiong spoke rudely to Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan, and Fei Dachuan, in a moment of impulse, got into a big fight with Da Xiong. Finally, the two were taken to the police station for fighting. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi waited anxiously outside the police station. When they finally saw Fei Dachuan being taken away in a police car, they thought he was going to be detained or go to jail and were extremely worried.
Zhao Qiaoyi quickly asked her stepfather Tian Weimin, who worked at the police station. Tian Weimin told them the truth, saying it wasn't a big deal. They just had to write a self-criticism and repentance statement. Only then did the two girls' hearts finally settle. Zhao Qiaoyi was still bothered by Hao Wuyi hiding her relationship with Da Xiong, so she didn't want to talk to Hao Wuyi. Finally, Zhao Qiaoyi went home alone.
After Fei Dachuan returned to Yan Mo's home, he recounted everything that happened that night to Yan Mo in detail. Upon hearing it, Yan Mo became very worried about Zhao Qiaoyi. Yan Mo was restless at home, so he used the excuse of taking Grandpa out for exercise to go to Zhao Qiaoyi's building. At this moment, Zhao Qiaoyi was distressed because of Hao Wuyi hiding things from her.
From her room, she suddenly caught sight of Yan Mo downstairs and immediately rushed out of her house. Yan Mo didn't stay long. After seeing that Zhao Qiaoyi was alright, he left. Before leaving, he specifically comforted her, saying that conflicts between friends are inevitable and that she didn't need to worry too much about it. The next day during P. E. class, Hao Wuyi found an opportunity to apologize to Zhao Qiaoyi, but Zhao Qiaoyi ignored her.
Hao Wuyi suddenly had an emotional outburst, saying that Zhao Qiaoyi was getting too close to Yu Miaomiao and completely disregarding her feelings. The two then erupted into a fierce argument and even got into a scuffle. Finally, the P. E. teacher stepped in to stop them and made them stand in punishment.
After Teacher Gao learned about the conflict between Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi, he personally mediated for the two of them and gave them a task: to go home and write down each other's strengths and weaknesses. Zhao Guanchao dragged Zhao Qiaoyi out of the house to deliver food to their stepfather Tian Weimin, who was working overtime. Zhao Guanchao learned about the conflict between Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi.
Seeing Zhao Qiaoyi unhappy, he advised her on the way, telling her what a true friend in need is. Zhao Qiaoyi began to think after returning home, recalling all the times she spent with Hao Wuyi. She wrote down all of Hao Wuyi's strengths on paper and rediscovered her deep friendship with Hao Wuyi. The next day, Hao Wuyi was called out by the principal in front of everyone and criticized for wearing the wrong school uniform.
Hao Wuyi was scolded until she cried by the principal. Yan Mo also happened to be wearing the wrong school uniform that day. Zhao Qiaoyi suggested secretly exchanging clothes with Yan Mo. Finally, Zhao Qiaoyi appeared and shared the hardship with Hao Wuyi, facing the principal's reprimand together. Because of this, the two buried the hatchet and reconciled. When Yan Mo returned home, his mother suddenly jumped out holding a cake, giving Yan Mo a big surprise.
It turned out that Yan Mo's mother had lied to him on the phone earlier, saying she wouldn't be back, but she actually just wanted to give him a surprise. Yan Mo's expression was calm when he saw his mother, but he was secretly overjoyed.
Episode 6 Recap
In 2006, Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi went shopping together to pick out New Year cards. After Yan Mo's mother returned home, she bought a large pile of vegetables to cook for her son, but she burned the dishes, so in the end, the two could only choose to eat sandwiches. When Yan Mo's mother was tidying up his clothes, she found a cartoon T-shirt in his wardrobe.
Yan Mo had never worn such clothes before, and she immediately felt very curious. Hao Wuyi personally found Da Xiong and gave him a New Year's card she had carefully chosen as a New Year gift. Da Xiong, however, didn't care about it at all. Hao Wuyi had thought Da Xiong had also prepared a New Year gift for her and was very much looking forward to it, but unexpectedly, Da Xiong just perfunctorily said 'Happy New Year'.
Hao Wuyi felt a bit disappointed. Yu Miaomiao and a few gossipy girls in class were discussing the new brand-name shoes. Everyone noticed that the shoes on Zhao Qiaoyi's feet were fake brand-name shoes, and they cast disdainful glances at her, which made Zhao Qiaoyi very embarrassed. Just then, Hao Wuyi suddenly appeared to resolve the awkwardness and stood up to defend Zhao Qiaoyi.
Fei Dachuan came to Yan Mo's home, and Yan Mo's mother asked Fei Dachuan about the cartoon T-shirt in Yan Mo's wardrobe. It was then that Yan Mo's mother learned that this T-shirt was given to him by a female classmate from his class, Zhao Qiaoyi. With a woman's intuition, Yan Mo's mother felt that Yan Mo's relationship with this female classmate was definitely not simple, so she immediately followed up with questions about Zhao Qiaoyi.
Zhao Qiaoyi also wanted to own a pair of genuine shoes, but she knew her family wasn't wealthy. For a while, she didn't know how to bring it up to her mother, so she desperately came up with various reasons to say she wanted to buy a pair of shoes. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother could only agree to take Zhao Qiaoyi shopping for shoes. Zhao Qiaoyi and her mother went to the mall.
Qiaoyi walked into a brand-name shoe store and saw a new Adidas shoe that cost 800 yuan. Although Qiaoyi really wanted it, when she saw the price, she couldn't bring herself to ask her mother. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother was even more reluctant to spend that much money. In the end, Zhao Qiaoyi's mother took Zhao Qiaoyi directly to browse street stalls, but they unexpectedly ran into Yan Mo.
Seeing Yan Mo, Zhao Qiaoyi felt her self-esteem shatter completely and was utterly mortified. Her mother saw Yan Mo kept looking at Zhao Qiaoyi and thought she was Yan Mo's classmate. But Yan Mo flatly denied it, not wanting his mother to know that she was Zhao Qiaoyi, and led his mother away directly. Yan Mo had a cold for several days and hadn't gotten better, but he was unwilling to take medicine.
Zhao Qiaoyi's persuasion was useless, so Zhao Qiaoyi came up with an idea: pour ice on her own bed to catch a cold herself, so she would have a reason to make Yan Mo take medicine together. When she took the medicine to Yan Mo, he said his cold was already better. Zhao Qiaoyi then stood by silently, unwilling to talk to him.
After Yan Mo returned home, he told his mother about Zhao Qiaoyi being angry, hoping for her help. His mother suggested giving the girl a gift to apologize, but Yan Mo refused, saying he had another way. Teacher Gao proudly showed off in the office because he received a New Year card from his student Hao Wuyi. Unexpectedly, another teacher subtly opened a drawer full of New Year cards, which made Teacher Gao look bad by comparison.
When Teacher Gao opened the card from Hao Wuyi, he saw it was an ambiguous confession letter and was immediately startled. Zhao Qiaoyi was unhappy for several days. Her stepfather Tian Weimin had been observing this and talked with his wife Zhao Suying, telling her to be fair to their children. The next day, Teacher Gao held a parent-teacher meeting. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother Zhao Suying attended as Zhao Guanchao's parent, while her stepfather Tian Weimin attended as Zhao Qiaoyi's parent.
Before the meeting started, Yan Mo's mother carefully observed Zhao Qiaoyi's father and actively and warmly tried to befriend him. Hao Wuyi was from a single-parent family; her father passed away early. Her mother was a strong businesswoman, always busy with work and neglecting Hao Wuyi's well-being. She was even late for the parent-teacher meeting because of a business talk.
After the meeting, Teacher Gao spoke privately with Hao Wuyi's mother and subtly hinted that Hao Wuyi might have a crush on a teacher, and showed her the New Year card Hao Wuyi had given him. Hao Wuyi and her mother suddenly had a heated argument on the way home. Hao Wuyi's mother told Hao Wuyi what Teacher Gao had said, and Hao Wuyi felt things were bad.
At this moment, she was more concerned that Da Xiong might misunderstand her, so she immediately ran to find Da Xiong to explain things clearly. She explained to Da Xiong about sending the wrong New Year card and hoped he wouldn't be angry. Da Xiong, however, felt a bit confused and didn't care about it at all; he hadn't even opened and read the content of the card. Fei Dachuan invited Yan Mo to play basketball together.
Yan Mo took off his jacket, and everyone was stunned to see the cartoon T-shirt he was wearing. As Zhao Qiaoyi walked past the basketball court, she also saw Yan Mo wearing the T-shirt she had given him. She secretly chuckled to herself, and all her unhappiness instantly vanished. When Yan Mo was resting during the game, Zhao Qiaoyi specially bought him a bottle of water.
When Zhao Qiaoyi woke up early in the morning, she received the pair of trendy shoes she wanted, bought by Zhao Guanchao with the money he earned from part-time work. Yan Mo also received a gift of love. It was then that Zhao Qiaoyi realized that the people who appeared in her life and deeply loved her were the greatest gifts bestowed by heaven.
Episode 7 Recap
Jasmine's 10th anniversary limited edition was released, and Zhao Qiaoyi really wanted it, trying every way to get her husband Yan Mo to buy it for her. Time returned to 2006. Qiaoyi bought a bell for Yan Mo's dog, Grandpa, and promised to come to his house on the first day after the holiday to put the bell on Grandpa herself.
Yan Mo woke up early and waited, finding various excuses to send his mother away, wanting to be alone with Zhao Qiaoyi. But Zhao Qiaoyi had completely forgotten about it. Yan Mo waited and waited at home but never saw Zhao Qiaoyi, feeling very disappointed.
Father Tian took out a pot of wine at home and showed it off in every way, explaining the history of the wine to Zhao Qiaoyi and Zhao Guanchao, and said he would open it for an important occasion. Just then, the phone suddenly rang at home. After Father Tian answered, his expression instantly changed. It was a call from Zhao Qiaoyi's biological father.
Yan Mo woke up early and saw Xiaomei at home, who had returned from studying in England for the holidays. Xiaomei said they had a childhood engagement and had always called Yan Mo her future husband. Yan Mo looked helpless. At this moment, Yan Mo's mother told him that his father was also home. Yan Mo saw his father sleeping in the study right after returning home, finding it a bit strange.
The new semester began, and Zhao Qiaoyi couldn't understand why Yan Mo started ignoring her again. Zhao Qiaoyi returned home and unexpectedly found the bell she hadn't given him. Only then did she understand why Yan Mo was sulking. The next day, Zhao Qiaoyi personally gave the bell to Yan Mo and sincerely apologized to him. Yan Mo, however, acted indifferently.
Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly coughed, and Yan Mo realized she might have caught a cold again, so he casually handed her medicine. Qiaoyi's biological father came to the school to find her and asked to have dinner with Qiaoyi and Guanchao this weekend. Zhao Qiaoyi instinctively dodged and made excuses to refuse her biological father. Just then, Zhao Guanchao also appeared, clearly refused their biological father, was full of hostility towards him, and pulled Zhao Qiaoyi away directly.
Zhao Qiaoyi was a bit confused by her biological father's sudden concern, while Hao Wuyi was also unhappy because of Da Xiong's alienation and hot and cold attitude towards her. The two comforted each other. Fei Dachuan came to Yan Mo's home and asked Yan Mo's mother about Xiaomei. When leaving, he accidentally took a file bag from the table. Zhao Qiaoyi had something on her mind and went to Zhao Guanchao's room to find him.
After struggling internally for a long time, she finally told Zhao Guanchao her thoughts about going to see her biological father. But Zhao Guanchao still refused to give in a single step and said very resolute words to Zhao Qiaoyi, stating that he would absolutely not go to see their biological father, Zhao Lei. Fei Dachuan was lectured by Father Tian for running a red light.
Father Tian gave him a small punishment, making him a "backup police" to stand guard by the traffic light. Yan Mo's father sleeping in the study every time he came home and making secret phone calls were strange behaviors that made Yan Mo feel something was very wrong. Yan Mo went to find Fei Dachuan, wanting him to help, but hesitated and didn't know how to ask, so he just gave up.
While Zhao Qiaoyi was helping her mother wash dishes, Zhao's mother talked about Qiaoyi's biological father, Zhao Lei. She still hoped her two children could let go of their resentment towards their biological father, believing that with less resentment in their hearts, they could live happily. Qiaoyi asked her mother if she still resented Zhao Lei, but her mother said it had been too long and she had already forgotten. Hao Wuyi took Zhao Qiaoyi to a bookstore.
Hao Wuyi was being nosy and rearranged the books on the shelf, but the bookstore owner saw her and yelled loudly to stop her. The two panicked and fled the bookstore. On the street, Hao Wuyi saw Da Xiong and was overjoyed, dropping Zhao Qiaoyi and chasing after him. Zhao Qiaoyi walked alone and then spotted Yan Mo in disguise on the street.
After Qiaoyi asked, she learned that Yan Mo suspected his father was having an affair and was secretly following him. After Qiaoyi learned this, she proactively offered to help him investigate, but in return, she needed Yan Mo to persuade Zhao Guanchao to have a meal with Zhao Lei. The two immediately agreed. Father Yan again made an excuse to go out alone. Yan Mo immediately sent a message to Zhao Qiaoyi.
Upon receiving the message, Zhao Qiaoyi immediately followed Father Yan closely. Meanwhile, Xiaomei, who grew up with Yan Mo, noticed Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo's frequent interactions recently and had also been following Zhao Qiaoyi, watching her every move. Unexpectedly, Xiaomei was intercepted by Fei Dachuan halfway, and the two had a small conflict on the street. Zhao Qiaoyi followed Father Yan to a restaurant. She found him being very intimate with another woman.
She even saw Father Yan's illegitimate child with that woman at the end. Qiaoyi was directly shocked by this scene. The next day, when Yan Mo pressed her for information, she didn't know how to tell him the truth.
Episode 8 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi felt tormented after learning Father Yan's secret. To avoid hurting Yan Mo, she could only choose to hide it. Zhao Qiaoyi, with a flash of inspiration, deliberately changed the subject and asked Yan Mo to complete the task of persuading her brother. Yan Mo found Zhao Guanchao and directly stated his purpose for seeking him out, but Zhao Guanchao said it was their family matter and he didn't need to worry.
Finally, Zhao Guanchao also revealed the reason for his resentment towards their biological father – it was all for Zhao Qiaoyi. When Zhao Qiaoyi was a child, she was severely injured by domestic violence from their biological father, requiring a major surgery that left Zhao Qiaoyi's back without feeling to this day. After Zhao Qiaoyi recovered, she remained incredibly strong and optimistic internally, which greatly shocked her brother Zhao Guanchao.
The next day, when Yan Mo saw Zhao Qiaoyi again, he remembered what Zhao Guanchao had said the day before, giving him a deeper understanding of Zhao Qiaoyi. That evening, Zhao Guanchao also recalled the time he and his sister got lost as children. It was because of that incident that the three of them first met their stepfather, Tian Weimin.
Father Tian's 40th birthday banquet was approaching, so he sent invitations to people in his office, but they were all rejected. Father Tian was therefore irritated and petulantly said he would cancel the birthday banquet. Zhao Suying felt utterly confused but helpless. At this moment, Zhao Qiaoyi wondered why her stepfather had such poor interpersonal skills. During class break, Yu Miaomiao wrote on Zhao Qiaoyi's back. Since Zhao Qiaoyi had no feeling in her back, she couldn't answer.
Just then, to ease the awkwardness, Yan Mo voluntarily wrote on her back, but unexpectedly, Zhao Qiaoyi guessed all of them correctly. Zhao Qiaoyi felt lucky that she had guessed correctly. In fact, it was because Yan Mo, based on his understanding of Zhao Qiaoyi, had cleverly designed the questions that allowed Zhao Qiaoyi to guess right. After class, Zhao Qiaoyi proactively invited Yan Mo to her house, which suddenly made Yan Mo a little flustered.
He specifically searched online for what gift to give when visiting a girl's house for the first time. Zhao Qiaoyi was at home when she received an invitation message from her biological father, Zhao Lei, and fell silent. The next day, Yan Mo went to Zhao Qiaoyi's house. Upon entering the door, he found Fei Dachuan and Hao Wuyi were also there. Everyone had gathered to prepare for Zhao Qiaoyi's stepfather's birthday party.
Father Tian took Zhao Suying to a fancy Western restaurant for dinner. They had a small awkward moment when ordering because they didn't understand the menu. During the meal, they talked about family matters again, discussing the vastly different personalities of Zhao Guanchao and Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Guanchao was extroverted and free-spirited, while Zhao Qiaoyi, although she had backbone, always kept her thoughts to herself.
During the meal, Father Tian told Zhao Suying that he truly regarded Zhao Qiaoyi as his own daughter and hoped he could walk her down the aisle when she got married in the future. They both sighed with emotion as they discussed the future of their children. In the morning, Zhao Qiaoyi had persuaded Zhao Guanchao to go see Zhao Lei, while she stayed home to help host Father Tian's birthday banquet.
Zhao Guanchao met his biological father, who offered to take him to live in Canada as compensation. Zhao Guanchao retorted by asking his biological father how he would compensate Zhao Qiaoyi. Unexpectedly, his biological father still had the same patriarchal mindset. Zhao Guanchao utterly despised this, mocked his biological father, and explicitly stated he would sever all ties with him.
Zhao Guanchao also recalled his conversation with his sister that morning; Zhao Qiaoyi had asked him to see their biological father because she didn't want her brother to live his life carrying resentment. After this meeting with his biological father, he had completely let go of his love and hate for him. Father Tian and Zhao Suying returned home, thinking they were the only ones there.
They began affectionately doting on each other as if no one was watching, speaking sweet nothings. Suddenly, a group of people popped out, causing an immediate awkward scene. Seeing this, the four others quickly slipped away, returning the private world to Father Tian and Zhao Suying. When Fei Dachuan bid farewell to Yan Mo, he gave Yan Mo the file bag he had accidentally taken from Yan Mo's house last time.
At the same time, Zhao Qiaoyi also fully revealed the truth about what she had seen regarding Father Yan. Yan Mo's suspicion was confirmed, and he left without saying a word. Zhao Guanchao returned home very late. He didn't tell Zhao Qiaoyi what their biological father had said to him, but instead told a loving lie. He didn't want Zhao Qiaoyi to be hurt in any way and hoped she would continue to live with love and happiness.
Although the siblings often bickered and hurt each other, deep down, they loved each other very much. As soon as Yan Mo returned home, he saw his father carrying a suitcase, preparing to leave. Father Yan made an excuse about going on a long trip, and Yan Mo's mother also said she was leaving tomorrow. Yan Mo saw the file Fei Dachuan had given him; his mother's file indicated her marital status was divorced.
Yan Mo suddenly exploded, questioning his parents about all of this. Yan Mo's father confessed everything to Yan Mo, telling him they had divorced seven years ago and had hidden it to allow him to grow up better. However, Yan Mo was unwilling to accept this reality and ran out of the house, weeping sadly alone in the rain.
To celebrate his birthday, Tian Weimin took out the hundred-year-old family wine and drank exceptionally happily with Zhao Suying, constantly praising the taste of the wine. Unexpectedly, three days earlier, this bottle of wine had actually been accidentally knocked over by Zhao Qiaoyi and Zhao Guanchao. To cover up their wrongdoing, they had mixed in many other types of wine to pass it off.
Episode 9 Recap
In 2018, Yan Mo and his wife Zhao Qiaoyi went to watch a movie. However, the two had a disagreement when buying tickets and ended up going to see different movies. Zhao Qiaoyi was speechless and complained that Yan Mo was a complete straight man. Waking up early in the morning, both Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi felt very hungry, but neither wanted to get up to get food, so they continued to lie down and sleep.
Just then, Yan Mo suddenly had an idea: they could have a child to order around, so they wouldn't have to do anything themselves. Time returns to 2006. Mother Zhao had been getting inexplicably angry recently. Father Tian, Zhao Qiaoyi, and Zhao Guanchao discussed Mother Zhao's strange behavior and analyzed that she might be going through menopause. The three then discussed tactics to ease Mother Zhao's emotions and try their best not to anger her.
However, when facing Mother Zhao's anger at crucial moments, the two of them tacitly betrayed Father Tian, making him take the blame. Zhao Qiaoyi's exam results this time were very unsatisfactory. She looked worried about the upcoming parent-teacher meeting. Yan Mo and Zhao Guanchao comforted Zhao Qiaoyi on the side, saying that this exam was indeed difficult, and even they were not spared.
What shocked them was that the only person in the entire grade who got all the multiple-choice questions correct was Fei Dachuan. Yan Mo then said that Fei Dachuan had always been someone who relied entirely on luck through skill since he was a child. At home, Mother Zhao asked about their exam results. Zhao Qiaoyi stammered on the side, while Zhao Guanchao took the opportunity to kick her while she was down.
Feeling very unhappy, she returned to her room and began to study diligently. The next day in class, the teacher announced the results. Zhao Qiaoyi was singled out and criticized by the teacher, which drew laughter from the whole class. Zhao Qiaoyi felt disheartened after being criticized multiple times. As soon as she got home, she locked herself in her room and cried secretly. Father Tian and Mother Zhao felt pity seeing Zhao Qiaoyi secretly upset.
The next day, on the way to send Zhao Qiaoyi to school, Father Tian mentioned registering her for a tutoring class. However, Zhao Qiaoyi was worried that the tuition fee would be too expensive. Hao Wuyi saw Zhao Guanchao and remembered how Zhao Guanchao suddenly appeared to stand up for her when Daxiong broke up with her before. Hao Wuyi felt grateful to him. Zhao Guanchao suddenly approached Hao Wuyi.
He wanted to join the school team and asked Hao Wuyi to teach him basketball. Hao Wuyi had been skilled at playing basketball since childhood and had won various awards related to basketball, but she had retired from playing since entering high school. Facing Zhao Guanchao's sudden request, Hao Wuyi refused. After school, Hao Wuyi mentioned this matter to Zhao Qiaoyi. At this moment, Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly understood the reason why Zhao Guanchao wanted to join the school team.
Joining the school team could add 10 points to the final exam score. Zhao Guanchao wanted to surpass Yan Mo this way and shake off his title of being the perennial second place. That evening, Zhao Guanchao was practicing basketball alone on the court. Just then, Hao Wuyi suddenly appeared and offered to teach him basketball proactively, subjecting him to strict training. Zhao Qiaoyi followed Father Tian's words, consulted with a tutoring agency, and attended a trial lesson.
After returning home, Zhao Qiaoyi asked Zhao Guanchao for money, but Zhao Guanchao refused. Hearing this, Zhao Qiaoyi got angry and retorted to Zhao Guanchao. Yan Mo had been waiting for Zhao Qiaoyi to ask him for help, but Zhao Qiaoyi was always unwilling to speak up. That evening, Zhao Qiaoyi returned home. Father Tian took out 1000 yuan and gave it to Zhao Qiaoyi to register for the tutoring class. Zhao Qiaoyi was very touched.
Hao Wuyi would practice with Zhao Guanchao whenever she had time. During their practice, due to the close proximity, Hao Wuyi developed a slight crush on Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Qiaoyi's academic performance had not been improving, and she felt a lot of pressure. She confided in Fei Dachuan about her worries. Hearing this, Fei Dachuan took her to an internet cafe to play games and help her release pressure.
Yan Mo learned from other classmates that Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan were at the internet cafe, so he went straight there to find them. Seeing that they were having fun, he impulsively said some hurtful words to Zhao Qiaoyi out of pique. Zhao Qiaoyi was very sad after hearing him. After returning, Fei Dachuan got angry with Yan Mo and told him he must go apologize to Zhao Qiaoyi and explain what happened today.
It was then that Yan Mo realized he had misunderstood Zhao Qiaoyi, and he immediately ran to the tutoring class to find Zhao Qiaoyi. Yan Mo proposed to the tutoring class teacher that he wanted to audit a lesson. Zhao Qiaoyi was shocked to see Yan Mo at the tutoring class. While auditing the lesson, Yan Mo disrupted the tutoring class and exposed that it was not a legitimate place and was purely deceptive.
Afterwards, Yan Mo proactively offered to tutor Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi casually agreed. Yan Mo watched Zhao Qiaoyi's receding figure and smiled silently. Under Hao Wuyi's guidance, Zhao Guanchao's basketball skills improved greatly. Hao Wuyi originally thought Zhao Guanchao wanted to join the school team to get bonus points and surpass Yan Mo, but she never expected that the reason he went to such lengths to join the team was to pursue the cheerleading captain. Hearing this, Hao Wuyi beat Zhao Guanchao up and left angrily.
Episode 10 Recap
In 2018, because the renovation upstairs of Zhao Qiaoyi's home was noisy, she booked a room in a hotel to write a proposal. Just then, Yan Mo suddenly came over to bring her food. Zhao Qiaoyi then put on a seductive look to tease Yan Mo. Yan Mo's little nephew came to Beijing to visit. Zhao Qiaoyi saw him and liked him very much, so she couldn't help but play with him.
And Yan Mo, who was serious on the side, unexpectedly joined in the fun, which made Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly feel a little surprised. She felt that Yan Mo was becoming more and more interesting under her influence. In 2006, Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi discussed the matter of choosing between arts and science streams in the classroom. In her heart, she was reluctant to part with everyone.
Teacher Gao obtained an opportunity for Zhao Guanchao and Yan Mo to go to Beijing for an exchange study during the summer. Zhao Guanchao learned from Teacher Gao that Yan Mo was going to the UK. When Zhao Guanchao and Yan Mo went to Beijing, it was certain that Hao Wuyi, Fei Dachuan, and Zhao Qiaoyi would not be absent. The three of them went to Beijing together with them. The group took a 28-hour train ride to Beijing together.
Before departing, everyone handed over all their money for Yan Mo to manage. On the train, Hao Wuyi secretly asked Zhao Qiaoyi about the type of girl Zhao Guanchao liked. Zhao Qiaoyi fell asleep on Yan Mo's shoulder on the train, and he put his clothes over her. When getting off the train, Zhao Qiaoyi accidentally left Yan Mo's jacket on the train, which resulted in them having no money to stay in a hotel.
So Yan Mo took everyone to an apartment their family had bought in Beijing. The housekeeper at home very warmly led them into the residence and left some spare money for Yan Mo. That evening, in order to be alone with Zhao Guanchao, Hao Wuyi urged Zhao Qiaoyi to go take a shower.
Zhao Qiaoyi didn't know the bathroom door was broken, so she pushed the door open and walked in, but she found Yan Mo taking a shower, and her face instantly turned red with embarrassment. She quickly ran out and apologized to him. Hao Wuyi recalled the sparks that flew when she played basketball with Zhao Guanchao before, so she proactively went to ask Zhao Guanchao to hang out tomorrow. Zhao Guanchao found Yan Mo alone in the evening to chat.
He asked about Yan Mo going to the UK and told him about Zhao Qiaoyi's past. He instructed Yan Mo to personally tell Zhao Qiaoyi about going abroad in advance so she would be mentally prepared, otherwise it would make her very sad. Early the next morning, in order to have a lovely date with Zhao Guanchao, Hao Wuyi specifically got up early to put on makeup.
The two of them went to the mall to play claw machines and had a great time. Yan Mo arranged to meet his mother. Unexpectedly, Cheng Youmei, who was Yan Mo's childhood sweetheart, also came. Cheng Youmei came to offer some help for Yan Mo going to the UK. Yan Mo's mother told him to prepare well for the exam in October and would help him arrange the transfer to the UK as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Yan Mo remained silent on the side. Cheng Youmei could see that Yan Mo was a bit hesitant. She guessed it must be related to Zhao Qiaoyi. She was shocked that Yan Mo would give up his pursued goal because of a girl. She felt this was not the Yan Mo she knew. When Zhao Qiaoyi woke up in the morning, she unexpectedly saw a childhood photo of Cheng Youmei and Yan Mo. Just then, Fei Dachuan arrived.
Zhao Qiaoyi unexpectedly learned from Fei Dachuan that Yan Mo was going to study in the UK. She immediately felt very lost, so she went out alone to clear her head. In the end, she couldn't help but cry sadly. This scene, however, was just seen by Yan Mo who had returned. Zhao Qiaoyi immediately wiped away her tears to hide her sadness and casually found an excuse to explain. Zhao Guanchao took Hao Wuyi to play billiards.
Seeing Zhao Guanchao playing, she started to have romantic thoughts. Yan Mo specifically took Zhao Qiaoyi to watch his mother's interview. Zhao Qiaoyi felt very surprised and happy. Cheng Youmei personally came to Yan Mo's place to find him, but she found Fei Dachuan at Yan Mo's home in Beijing. Fei Dachuan had fainted due to acute appendicitis.
Cheng Youmei recognized Fei Dachuan as the person who had previously stopped her and had a conflict with her, so she immediately called an ambulance. After the interview, Yan Mo introduced Zhao Qiaoyi to his mother. Zhao Qiaoyi's spontaneous "Mom" made Yan Mo and his mother overjoyed, while Zhao Qiaoyi looked embarrassed. Yan Mo, standing next to her, couldn't help but laugh too. After finishing work, Yan Mo's mother took them out for dinner.
After showing concern for Yan Mo, Yan Mo's mother started telling Zhao Qiaoyi many interesting stories about Yan Mo's childhood. The two of them chatted happily at the dinner table, while Yan Mo felt a bit shy. Yan Mo suddenly proposed to his mother during dinner that he wouldn't go to the UK anymore. His mother felt very strange, so she sent Zhao Qiaoyi away to ask Yan Mo for his reason.
When she finally learned that Yan Mo was staying for Zhao Qiaoyi, she didn't say anything more but requested that he discuss this matter with Zhao Qiaoyi again, otherwise it would put a lot of pressure on Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi advised Yan Mo to reconsider the matter of going to the UK. But Yan Mo suggested that the two of them go to study in the UK together.
Zhao Qiaoyi felt very surprised, and the two of them made this promise. Zhao Guanchao and Hao Wuyi played all day. When they were about to go back, Zhao Guanchao suddenly revealed his feelings to Hao Wuyi. Their mutual feelings coincided.
Episode 11 Recap
In 2018, Zhao Qiaoyi couldn't help but act like a drama queen while watching a Korean drama, so she started acting opposite her husband Yan Mo, who quietly cooperated with her performance. The memories return to 2006. The second year of high school was the period for splitting into arts and science streams.
Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi chose the arts stream and were in the same class, while Yan Mo and Zhao Guanchao chose the science stream and were also in the same class. Fei Dachuan was in a different class from them. Unwilling to accept this, Fei Dachuan went to Teacher Gao to request a transfer. Zhao Qiaoyi recalled her previous promise with Yan Mo and couldn't help but smile happily.
Just then, Yan Mo happened to walk over, and Zhao Qiaoyi proactively took out a yearbook for Yan Mo to write in. During dinner, Hao Wuyi announced to Zhao Qiaoyi that she and Zhao Guanchao were officially dating. Zhao Qiaoyi was shocked and couldn't process it for a moment. Finally, Zhao Qiaoyi warned Zhao Guanchao not to bully Hao Wuyi.
Just then, Yan Mo came over, and Hao Wuyi pulled Zhao Guanchao away to create an opportunity for Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo. At this time, Hao Wuyi didn't know that her relationship with Zhao Guanchao was actually just a bet between him and Fei Dachuan. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi went to a bookstore.
Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to buy some books to study hard, while Hao Wuyi felt she wasn't capable enough and had no interest in studying, but was very passionate about reading novels. At the bookstore, Hao Wuyi frantically called Zhao Guanchao, but Zhao Guanchao completely ignored her, which made Hao Wuyi very depressed. After Zhao Guanchao returned home, he didn't eat dinner, so Father Tian scolded him a few times at the dinner table.
At this time, Zhao Qiaoyi also had something on her mind; she didn't know how to bring up the matter of studying abroad to her parents. So, to appease Mother Zhao first, she diligently cleaned the dishes herself. Mother Zhao found her unusual behavior a bit strange. After finishing dinner, Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi and asked Zhao Guanchao to answer the phone.
Zhao Guanchao made an excuse that he was sick and was about to go to bed, then immediately hung up. Zhao Qiaoyi, overhearing, chased after Zhao Guanchao and hit him, warning him not to hurt Hao Wuyi. During Chinese class, Teacher Gao saw Hao Wuyi writing something and praised her essays, which were often commended by other teachers. Teacher Gao then asked Hao Wuyi to read the novel she had written to the whole class.
After Hao Wuyi finished reading, it caused a burst of laughter from the class. After class, Teacher Gao called her to the office and advised her to prioritize studying, telling her that hobbies are different from ways of making a living. Hao Wuyi felt a bit discouraged after hearing this. Seeing Hao Wuyi with her unique dream, Teacher Gao also recalled his younger self. Zhao Suying and Tian Weimin were watching a TV shopping program.
After watching, Zhao Suying felt an impulse to buy, but Tian Weimin complained that these TV shopping programs were all scams and stopped Zhao Suying from buying anything. The two chased and playfully wrestled like children in the room. Although Hao Wuyi was angry that Zhao Guanchao was ignoring her, she thoughtfully prepared medicine for him after hearing from the phone call last night that he was sick.
But at this moment, Zhao Guanchao began to feel guilty internally; he didn't know how to clearly explain the matter of their relationship to Hao Wuyi. Teacher Gao thought it over and then individually sought out Zhao Qiaoyi to chat. He talked with Zhao Qiaoyi about his regret over giving up his dream when he was young and began to look forward to the dreams he would fulfill in the future.
Afterward, Teacher Gao asked Zhao Qiaoyi to take Hao Wuyi's notebook back and to convey his apology to Hao Wuyi on his behalf. Zhao Qiaoyi gave the notebook to Zhao Guanchao and asked him to give it to Hao Wuyi. Just then, Fei Dachuan appeared and almost blurted out in front of Zhao Qiaoyi that Zhao Guanchao was faking his confession to Hao Wuyi. Luckily, Zhao Guanchao quickly covered his mouth and pulled Fei Dachuan aside to talk.
However, Hao Wuyi, who was nearby, overheard the conversation between Fei Dachuan and Zhao Guanchao. Upon hearing this, Hao Wuyi felt like she had been struck by lightning and was extremely angry. Ever since Zhao Qiaoyi and the others split into arts and science streams, even though Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi were not in the same class, Yan Mo was constantly paying attention to Zhao Qiaoyi's every move.
Zhao Qiaoyi saw a thermos that her mother liked at the supermarket; she had wanted to buy it but it was out of stock. Yan Mo happened to see this scene. At this time, there was a customer appreciation event happening outside the supermarket, and among the prizes was exactly the thermos that Zhao Qiaoyi needed. Yan Mo bravely went on stage to perform a talent to win the thermos for Zhao Qiaoyi.
Zhao Qiaoyi, watching Yan Mo's adorable performance from below the stage, couldn't help but chuckle. In the evening, the two of them went home together. On the way, Zhao Qiaoyi chatted with Yan Mo about the topic of dreams they had discussed with Teacher Gao that day and told Yan Mo that her dream was to become a TV drama director.
Just as Zhao Qiaoyi was about to arrive home, Yan Mo suddenly told her affectionately, "If you ever need me to do anything in the future, just say the word." Zhao Qiaoyi silently smiled foolishly upon hearing this. Zhao Guanchao kept calling Hao Wuyi, but because she was still angry, she ignored him, leaving Zhao Guanchao at a loss for a moment.
Meanwhile, Hao Wuyi continued writing her novel at home, writing Zhao Guanchao into her story and portraying him as a bad character. After finishing, she suddenly felt her mood lighten significantly. Zhao Qiaoyi returned home and finally mustered the courage to tell her family about her wish to study abroad in the UK. Considering her family's circumstances, Zhao Qiaoyi proposed that they only needed to cover the tuition fees, and she could manage her living expenses herself.
To Zhao Qiaoyi's surprise, her family didn't object at all; instead, they gave her encouragement. Teacher Gao suddenly approached Fei Dachuan to chat with him about dreams. Fei Dachuan then began speaking endlessly about his dreams. Faced with Fei Dachuan's wild imagination, Teacher Gao found it a bit hard to cope.
Episode 12 Recap
In 2007, Yan Mo was hospitalized due to stomach problems, but he didn't realize it was all because of Zhao Qiaoyi. Once, Fei Dachuan unintentionally mentioned that Zhao Qiaoyi loved eating crayfish, and said it was popular now to take the person you love most to eat crayfish. As a result, Yan Mo tried eating a lot of crayfish, but unexpectedly ended up in the hospital.
A beautiful new female student named Wang Yuran suddenly transferred to Zhao Qiaoyi's class, immediately causing a stir among the male students who stared fixedly at her. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi discussed Wang Yuran's beauty, while Yu Miaomiao watched from the side, feeling extremely jealous. Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi unexpectedly ran into Zhao Guanchao in the school corridor.
To their surprise, Zhao Guanchao turned around and ran when he saw Hao Wuyi, and Hao Wuyi's reaction was also very indifferent. This made Zhao Qiaoyi feel something was off. As soon as she got home, she found Zhao Guanchao and questioned him, but he just made up some nonsense to deceive her. Just then, Zhao Qiaoyi's phone suddenly rang. It was Yan Mo calling.
Upon learning that Yan Mo was out of the hospital and downstairs at her place, Zhao Qiaoyi immediately rushed out. Yan Mo told Zhao Qiaoyi that he would take the IELTS exam on Saturday and then go to the UK next month. Yan Mo suddenly started talking about Zhao Qiaoyi's favorite Jay Chou and invited her to watch a movie on Sunday. After returning to the hospital, Yan Mo flipped through Zhao Qiaoyi's yearbook.
Wang Yuran ignored the enthusiastic overtures from the boys, while Yu Miaomiao and a few other girls watched enviously. They deliberately spoke ill of Wang Yuran and slandered her behind her back. Hao Wuyi, unable to listen any longer, stepped forward to speak up for Wang Yuran. During physical education class, Yu Miaomiao deliberately bullied Wang Yuran, making her collect all the basketballs by herself.
Hao Wuyi actively went up to help, but unexpectedly, Wang Yuran coldly refused, which made Hao Wuyi feel a bit awkward and unnecessary. Zhao Guanchao went to see Hao Wuyi, apologized to her, and proactively helped her clean. Hao Wuyi, meanwhile, made things difficult for him, and Zhao Guanchao endured it to atone for his actions. Wang Yuran was still tidying up the basketball court by herself.
Zhao Qiaoyi went up to offer help, but Wang Yuran's attitude remained distant and unapproachable. On Saturday evening, Zhao Qiaoyi asked her mother to help iron her clothes, preparing to go watch a movie with Yan Mo the next day. The next day, Zhao Qiaoyi woke up early. While waiting at home, she couldn't help but feel sleepy. Her mother saw this and told her to go back to sleep for a while, but unexpectedly, she overslept.
Zhao Qiaoyi anxiously rushed to meet Yan Mo. When they entered with the tickets, Zhao Qiaoyi discovered that Yan Mo had bought two seats that were not next to each other. Having no other choice, Zhao Qiaoyi pulled Yan Mo and they went to sit together in the back row. However, during the movie, Zhao Qiaoyi's attention was not on the film at all. After watching the movie, the two agreed to have dinner together.
They went for a stroll and snacks on the street but unexpectedly ran into Wang Yuran washing bowls at a snack stall. Zhao Qiaoyi found it very strange and asked Yan Mo to keep it a secret. Zhao Qiaoyi got her yearbook back from Yan Mo. Seeing that he had only left a few words in the yearbook, she felt a little disappointed.
Sun Zhenqi from Zhao Qiaoyi's class, having failed to pursue Wang Yuran, posted a photo of her working at the snack stall on the blackboard, deliberately letting everyone see it, causing Wang Yuran to lose face completely. Zhao Qiaoyi secretly tucked the yearbook into Wang Yuran's drawer. Sun Zhenqi ordered a lot of noodles at Wang Yuran's father's noodle stall and deliberately made things difficult for her father, embarrassing him.
Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to help from the side, but Sun Zhenqi intimidated her. Wang Yuran returned to the classroom and, facing Sun Zhenqi's provocation, finally couldn't help but confront him directly. Eventually, Teacher Gao arrived and separated the two. Wang Yuran left angrily and said she wanted to drop out of school. Zhao Qiaoyi returned home feeling unhappy and talked with Father Tian.
She chatted with him about what Wang Yuran had experienced in class that day and blamed herself for not being able to help her. Father Tian comforted her and encouraged her to be brave and stand up whenever she encountered such things in the future. The next day, Sun Zhenqi's parents caused a scene at the school, and Wang Yuran was forced to drop out.
Zhao Qiaoyi returned to the classroom and saw the yearbook Wang Yuran had returned on her desk. Hearing from Hao Wuyi that Wang Yuran had just left, she immediately chased after her, but Wang Yuran was nowhere to be seen. Zhao Qiaoyi then opened the yearbook and saw that the page where Wang Yuran had left a message said: Hope Zhao Qiaoyi always carries kindness, clear and bright.
Episode 13 Recap
In 2007, Yan Mo was hospitalized, and Zhao Qiaoyi personally delivered meals to Yan Mo. During his time in the hospital, Yan Mo actively helped Zhao Qiaoyi collect information on schools abroad and organize review materials. While performing a task, stepfather Tian Weimin was accidentally hit by a car and rushed to the hospital for treatment. Zhao Qiaoyi, who happened to be at the hospital, panicked when she saw her stepfather seriously injured and being rescued.
Zhao Guanchao saw his sister Zhao Qiaoyi trembling with fear and told her to stay home and rest, while he packed his things and went to the hospital to accompany their stepfather. Zhao Qiaoyi was distracted during class and was criticized by Teacher Gao. Zhao Guanchao took leave to accompany his stepfather in the hospital. Hao Wuyi, unaware of the situation, called Zhao Guanchao to ask about him.
Zhao Guanchao did not explain the reason for his leave but pleaded with Hao Wuyi on the phone to take good care of Zhao Qiaoyi. Hao Wuyi, hearing that Zhao Guanchao's tone was not right, was very worried. Zhao Qiaoyi called her mother from school to ask about her stepfather's condition. She learned that his condition was not ideal and that he would face paralysis in the future. Her mother was heartbroken on the phone, and Zhao Qiaoyi comforted her.
Yan Mo proactively called Zhao Qiaoyi to ask why she hadn't come to see him. Zhao Qiaoyi did not tell Yan Mo the truth, bearing all the sadness alone. The next day, Yan Mo was discharged from the hospital and personally went to school to find Zhao Qiaoyi and give her the exam review materials, but Zhao Qiaoyi changed her previous attitude towards him. After a few words with Yan Mo, she directly left, making excuses.
Yan Mo didn't understand Zhao Qiaoyi's sudden coldness towards him. Zhao Qiaoyi, while reviewing at home, thought about the past interactions with her stepfather and couldn't help but feel sad. At this moment, Zhao Guanchao came to Zhao Qiaoyi's room, took out his own savings, and gave all his savings to Zhao Qiaoyi, comforting Zhao Qiaoyi not to change her previous plans because of the changes in the family, and encouraged her to continue studying in the UK.
Zhao Qiaoyi was moved to tears by this. The next day, Yan Mo met with Zhao Qiaoyi. He kept talking to Zhao Qiaoyi about studying abroad, but Zhao Qiaoyi looked preoccupied. In the end, Zhao Qiaoyi had to tell Yan Mo the news that she was not going to the UK, and said some insincere words to cruelly reject Yan Mo, saying that she and Yan Mo were not on the same path.
Fei Dachuan learned about the changes in Zhao Qiaoyi's family and personally found Zhao Qiaoyi to comfort Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi asked Fei Dachuan to keep it a secret and not tell Yan Mo about this. Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to go to the hospital to see her stepfather after school, but it suddenly rained. Zhao Qiaoyi didn't bring an umbrella. Fei Dachuan wanted to help Zhao Qiaoyi, but Yan Mo sternly stopped Fei Dachuan.
Although Yan Mo was still angry with Zhao Qiaoyi, he couldn't bear to watch Zhao Qiaoyi get wet in the rain, so he took the umbrella and gave it to Zhao Qiaoyi, then ran into the rain himself, leaving Zhao Qiaoyi stunned in place. The next day, Yan Mo finally couldn't hold back and found Zhao Qiaoyi after Zhao Qiaoyi got out of school and confronted Zhao Qiaoyi, feeling that Zhao Qiaoyi was hiding something from Yan Mo recently.
Faced with Yan Mo's pressing questioning, Zhao Qiaoyi still chose to remain silent, forcibly endured the inner sadness and ran away directly. Hao Wuyi and Zhao Guanchao reconciled. In order not to put psychological pressure on Zhao Guanchao, Hao Wuyi took the initiative to propose that no matter whether they were rich or poor in the future, they should treat each other as their best friends.
After Hao Wuyi finished speaking with a smile, she turned around and burst into tears. Yan Mo felt that Zhao Qiaoyi's deliberate avoidance recently must be for a reason, so Yan Mo found Fei Dachuan and deliberately tried to get Fei Dachuan to talk. In the end, Fei Dachuan had no choice but to tell the truth.
Episode 14 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi stayed in the hospital to look after her stepfather. Her mother learned from Teacher Gao that Zhao Qiaoyi's grades had been declining recently, so she talked to Zhao Qiaoyi about her studies. However, Zhao Qiaoyi told her mother that she was not going to the UK. Her mother still encouraged Zhao Qiaoyi not to give up, saying that she would find a job to support her studies.
Zhao Qiaoyi saw her mother secretly eating her leftovers in the hospital to save money. Seeing this scene, Zhao Qiaoyi cried alone outside the hospital. At this moment, Yan Mo suddenly appeared. They looked at each other without saying a word, silently gazing at each other with deep affection. After Yan Mo returned home, he seriously discussed with his mother about not going to the UK.
The next day, Yan Mo's mother took the initiative to find Zhao Qiaoyi and took Zhao Qiaoyi out to dinner, telling Zhao Qiaoyi that Yan Mo had given up going to the UK for her sake. Yan Mo's mother didn't want her son to easily give up his dream of going to Cambridge, so she came up with a compromise. She offered to sponsor Zhao Qiaoyi to study in the UK, but Zhao Qiaoyi refused.
Yan Mo told Zhao Qiaoyi that he was about to leave for the UK and wanted to see Zhao Qiaoyi one last time before leaving, so he made an appointment with her at the restaurant. Zhao Qiaoyi, afraid of burdening Yan Mo, was late and did not show up. Yan Mo waited until the restaurant closed, but Zhao Qiaoyi was nowhere to be seen. The next day, Yan Mo said goodbye to all his classmates.
As he was about to leave, he confessed to Zhao Qiaoyi from the side, saying that Zhao Qiaoyi was his first love. However, Zhao Qiaoyi said cruel words in front of all the classmates, pouring cold water on Yan Mo. After turning around and leaving, she burst into tears. Four years later, Zhao Qiaoyi was a sophomore at a second-tier university close to home. Her stepfather, Tian Weimin, faced his situation with optimism.
He sat in his wheelchair and tried to secretly drink alcohol, but was discovered by Zhao Qiaoyi's mother and Zhao Qiaoyi, and was scolded by his wife. Zhao Guanchao was studying medicine in Beijing, while Hao Wuyi was studying at a private school in Beijing. Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to tell her that she was about to sign a contract for her novel. Hao Wuyi lacked confidence and wanted to seek comfort from Zhao Qiaoyi.
Since Yan Mo went to the UK, he had disappeared as if he had evaporated, and lost all contact with Zhao Qiaoyi. Fei Dachuan came to Zhao Qiaoyi's school to visit her. During a conversation with Zhao Qiaoyi, he suddenly received a call from Yan Mo. Afterwards, Fei Dachuan talked to Zhao Qiaoyi about Yan Mo again, wanting to persuade them to rekindle their old love.
Zhao Guanchao found Hao Wuyi and took her to sign the contract, but Hao Wuyi was very unconfident and afraid of it. Zhao Guanchao tried every means to encourage her to face it bravely. The school teacher found Zhao Qiaoyi and told her that the school had a spot for an exchange student to the UK and wanted to arrange for Zhao Qiaoyi to go, but Zhao Qiaoyi refused.
Zhao Qiaoyi received the school scholarship and asked her stepfather if he and her mother would like to attend the award ceremony together. However, her stepfather refused because he was afraid that his condition would be laughed at by her classmates and embarrass Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi didn't care and seriously told her stepfather that he should never have such thoughts again in the future.
Since Yan Mo left, Zhao Qiaoyi would think of Yan Mo all the time, wanting to forget him, but unable to. Zhao Qiaoyi remembered the conversation with her brother Zhao Guanchao after Yan Mo left. Zhao Guanchao suggested to Zhao Qiaoyi that if she couldn't bear to let Yan Mo go, she should tell Yan Mo to stay. However, Zhao Qiaoyi didn't want to delay Yan Mo because of her selfishness.
In the end, Zhao Guanchao had no choice but to comfort Zhao Qiaoyi, telling her not to be afraid, that the current stagnation was only because of a red light, and that after the red light, life would continue to move forward. Zhao Qiaoyi's mind replayed the past with Yan Mo like a movie. Finally, she plucked up her courage and went to the teacher to fight for the opportunity to study in the UK as an exchange student.
Episode 15 Recap
In 2007, when Yan Mo came to Cambridge in the UK alone, he was unhappy. In 2010, Zhao Qiaoyi came to the UK as an exchange student. In order to see where Yan Mo lived and studied, Zhao Qiaoyi deliberately told a small lie to leave the group led by the school teacher and traveled alone. Yan Mo still kept to himself in the UK.
His roommate specifically bought him a birthday cake, but Yan Mo was as aloof as ever, making his roommate complain that with such a personality, he would surely end up alone. The place Zhao Qiaoyi stayed in the UK happened to be right below where Yan Mo lived. Because Yan Mo was not good at socializing, he missed the chance to meet Zhao Qiaoyi. Hao Wuyi stayed up all night at home writing.
The editor responsible for Zhao Qiaoyi came to her home and told Hao Wuyi that her novel was a big hit and asked her to attend a new book signing tomorrow. Hao Wuyi still looked incredulous. Zhao Qiaoyi also bought a cake and silently said "Happy Birthday" to him from afar in her room. Yan Mo was also looking into the distance in his room. They were separated by the distance of one floor, each missing the other.
The next day, Zhao Qiaoyi packed her things, preparing to leave. Before leaving, she wanted to go upstairs to say goodbye to her neighbor upstairs, but Yan Mo was sleeping in his room and didn't respond, so they missed each other once again. Yan Mo woke up and found Zhao Qiaoyi's message.
Seeing the familiar handwriting on it, he immediately thought of Zhao Qiaoyi and quickly went downstairs to look for her, but found that she was already gone and the place was empty. - Although the two kept missing each other, Zhao Qiaoyi always believed that the person she wanted to meet would eventually be met one day. However, when they met again, it was after waiting for 6 years.
They met at a TV station, where Zhao Qiaoyi got the opportunity to personally interview Yan Mo, who had returned from overseas. After many years apart, when they reminisced, Yan Mo still held a grudge about Zhao Qiaoyi's rejection back then. When he asked Zhao Qiaoyi the reason for her rejection again, Zhao Qiaoyi fell silent again, causing Yan Mo to get angry and turn around and leave.
The next day, Director Hu was furious because Zhao Qiaoyi had messed up yesterday's interview. Director Hu ordered Zhao Qiaoyi to invite Yan Mo back again to make up for the mistake. Zhao Qiaoyi had no choice but to buy breakfast and send it to Yan Mo's home, trying every means to please him, but Yan Mo refused to see her. After Zhao Qiaoyi returned home, she was very frustrated. She asked her brother Zhao Guanchao how to muster courage.
Finally, Zhao Qiaoyi picked up her stepfather's alcohol and ran back to her room. After getting drunk, she ran directly to Yan Mo's home and climbed through the window into Yan Mo's room.
Episode 16 Recap
Yan Mo woke up groggily and was so frightened when he saw Zhao Qiaoyi sitting on his bed that he jumped up. Zhao Qiaoyi sat on Yan Mo's bed, took out items related to Yan Mo from their school days, hoping to move him and persuade him to return to the TV station for an interview. However, Yan Mo thought Zhao Qiaoyi only came to him for work, and he refused.
In the end, Zhao Qiaoyi, acting crazy from the alcohol, insisted on staying at Yan Mo's house. Yan Mo had no choice but to call Zhao Guanchao to take Zhao Qiaoyi away. Zhao Guanchao, upon hearing that his sister Zhao Qiaoyi was drunk, immediately abandoned his gathering to find Zhao Qiaoyi. Finally, Zhao Guanchao carried Zhao Qiaoyi back home. The next day, Zhao Qiaoyi woke up early and was scolded by her stepfather and Zhao Guanchao.
After Zhao Qiaoyi returned to the TV station, she learned from Director Hu that Yan Mo had agreed to be interviewed again, and she immediately chased after him. However, Yan Mo treated Zhao Qiaoyi coldly. Hao Wuyi personally attended the book signing event and was very popular among fans. After the signing event, she immediately made an appointment with Zhao Qiaoyi and, without prior notice, asked Zhao Qiaoyi to help her deal with the blind date arranged by her family.
Zhao Qiaoyi had no choice but to bite the bullet and go on the blind date in place of Hao Wuyi. The man was very interested in Zhao Qiaoyi and chatted incessantly with Zhao Qiaoyi, who felt very sleepy and vaguely remembered Yan Mo's figure. Unexpectedly, Yan Mo suddenly appeared in the restaurant with another host from the radio station. Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi's eyes met, and they were both embarrassed.
Yan Mo was absent-minded while eating at the restaurant and left midway to find Zhao Qiaoyi, deliberately disrupting Zhao Qiaoyi's blind date. Yan Mo left satisfied after ruining Zhao Qiaoyi's date, leaving Zhao Qiaoyi frustrated and upset. Hao Wuyi's mother argued fiercely with Hao Wuyi because Hao Wuyi ruined the blind date she arranged, and she suggested that Hao Wuyi give up writing and go to work in her company.
Hao Wuyi was dissatisfied with her mother's dictatorial behavior and left angrily. Mother and daughter always ended their conversations unhappily. Yan Mo requested that the interviewer be changed to someone else. Zhao Qiaoyi, seeing the harmonious scene between Yan Mo and other female hosts, felt very disappointed. After the interview, the female host personally sent Yan Mo to the airport, and on the way to the airport, she learned a lot about Zhao Qiaoyi from the female host.
Fei Dachuan was entrusted by the company to secure a cooperation with Yan Mo for the health bracelet. Fei Dachuan had no choice but to call Zhao Qiaoyi for help. Zhao Qiaoyi, knowing Yan Mo's whereabouts, told Fei Dachuan. Fei Dachuan pleaded with Yan Mo to cooperate in developing the health bracelet project, but Yan Mo only wanted to make the health bracelet as a gift and did not want to label the product as a commodity.
Hao Wuyi proposed to her editor that she wanted to transform and write different stories, but the editor did not recommend her to take risks and asked her to continue writing in her previous style. Fei Dachuan specially created opportunities for Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi to be alone in order to resolve past misunderstandings. Zhao Qiaoyi subtly suggested that Yan Mo stay in the country and start a business with Fei Dachuan.
Episode 17 Recap
Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi, arranged by Fei Dachuan, met at the restaurant where Yan Mo had been waiting for Zhao Qiaoyi before he went abroad. Yan Mo still couldn't let go of it, and they parted ways again after only a few words. After Zhao Qiaoyi returned home, she was dejected.
Under her stepfather's persuasion, she finally mustered the courage to bravely pursue love, but when she called Yan Mo's phone again, it was turned off, and Zhao Qiaoyi felt a wave of loneliness. Unexpectedly, Yan Mo actually hadn't gone abroad, but stayed in Beijing to research the health bracelet with Fei Dachuan. Fei Dachuan asked Yan Mo the reason for staying in the country, but Yan Mo was evasive and made up an excuse to get by.
Fei Dachuan leaving Hexin Group to start a business with Yan Mo alone displeased Cheng Ye, the young master of Hexin Group. He personally confronted the two and threatened that he would fight them to the end. Fei Dachuan and Yan Mo paid no heed to this, and Cheng Ye left in a huff, angered. Hao Wuyi was writing her new book day and night, neglecting sleep and meals.
Her editor called her to do an interview, but Hao Wuyi refused. The editor then kept talking endlessly about the new book with Hao Wuyi, but Hao Wuyi was impatient and directly hung up the phone. Zhao Qiaoyi saw the new intern busy cleaning the office and proactively offered her advice.
She told her that to learn real skills, she should follow the seniors closely and seek their guidance, and that the TV station would rely on them in the future. It turned out that Zhao Qiaoyi had submitted her resignation to Director Hu long ago. Director Hu did not agree with Zhao Qiaoyi's sudden resignation. Facing Director Hu's attempt to persuade her to stay, Zhao Qiaoyi still left resolutely.
After returning home, Zhao Qiaoyi told her mother and stepfather about her decision to resign and go to Beijing for development. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother strongly disagreed. Zhao Guanchao moved into a new rented place and invited a large group of female neighbors for a party. The loud music disturbed Hao Wuyi greatly. Hao Wuyi wanted to go and argue with them but didn't want to see Zhao Guanchao.
Finally, due to her recent depressed mood, Hao Wuyi also joined in, wanting to get drunk to numb herself. After Hao Wuyi got drunk, she proactively kissed Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao also finally put aside all the worries in his heart and proactively embraced and kissed Hao Wuyi. The two spent a night together. Zhao Qiaoyi packed her things and headed for Beijing.
Although Zhao Qiaoyi's mother didn't see her off personally, she was still extremely reluctant to let her go. After Zhao Qiaoyi arrived in Beijing, she called Hao Wuyi, wanting to stay at her place. Hao Wuyi saw Zhao Guanchao sleeping next to her and immediately refused, quickly ending the call. Since Zhao Qiaoyi had no other option, she called Zhao Guanchao.
Zhao Guanchao woke up and saw Hao Wuyi sleeping next to him, and also quickly found an excuse to hang up the phone. In the end, Zhao Qiaoyi had no choice but to call Fei Dachuan. Fei Dachuan told Yan Mo the news of Zhao Qiaoyi's arrival in Beijing, and Yan Mo was shocked. Fei Dachuan took Zhao Qiaoyi to eat Beijing's specialty hot pot and suggested that Zhao Qiaoyi work at the company he and Yan Mo founded.
In the evening, Fei Dachuan went to Yan Mo's house and informed him about Zhao Qiaoyi coming to work at their company. However, Yan Mo said he didn't care, which was contrary to his true feelings.
Episode 18 Recap
Yan Mo was in a bad mood early in the morning. Fei Dachuan was also very upset because Cheng Ye's obstruction made it impossible to find a foundry for their product. When Zhao Qiaoyi was taking the interview, Yan Mo personally came to the scene. He was jealous that Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan, a single man and a single woman, were alone in the same room, so he forced Zhao Qiaoyi to move out of Fei Dachuan's house.
Only if she found another rental place would he accept her application. Zhao Guanchao was injured in the head by Hao Wuyi. To avoid Zhao Qiaoyi, he had to lie to Zhao Qiaoyi that he had a cold. Since Hao Wuyi had a relationship with Zhao Guanchao, she had been avoiding Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao personally went to Hao Wuyi to confront her. Facing Zhao Guanchao's blunt desire to take responsibility, Hao Wuyi was a little panicked.
When Hao Wuyi learned that Zhao Guanchao was moving away, she couldn't bear to part with Zhao Guanchao, so she stepped forward to stop him. In order to help Zhao Qiaoyi pass the company's written test, Fei Dachuan personally stole the test questions that Yan Mo had prepared for her. Zhao Qiaoyi felt that Yan Mo was too cunning and that there must be something fishy about it. Zhao Qiaoyi accidentally fell asleep while reading in the company.
Yan Mo silently used the book to shield her from the sunlight. Yan Mo relentlessly found a foundry and tried every means to persuade the factory owner to cooperate with him. Although Zhao Qiaoyi passed the written test, none of the materials that Fei Dachuan stole from Yan Mo were tested. At this time, Zhao Qiaoyi understood Yan Mo's good intentions.
Those materials were deliberately prepared by Yan Mo for Zhao Qiaoyi to prevent her from fighting unprepared and being ridiculed by other colleagues in the company. Yan Mo met Zhao Qiaoyi on the road. On the crowded bus, Yan Mo stepped forward to protect Zhao Qiaoyi and personally took her to familiarize herself with the route from where she lived to the company.
Fei Dachuan called the employees out for a meeting alone and discussed with them about going to Yan Mo as a groomsman to attend a wedding of an investor. However, the employees were all afraid of Yan Mo and were unwilling to go. In the end, they had to find Zhao Qiaoyi. Hao Wuyi and Zhao Qiaoyi went shopping. To welcome Zhao Qiaoyi to Beijing, Hao Wuyi specially wanted to give Zhao Qiaoyi a pair of high heels.
After Zhao Qiaoyi saw the expensive price, she directly refused. Because of a water leak in his apartment, Fei Dachuan shamelessly moved into Yan Mo's house. The two went to the supermarket together, and Fei Dachuan complained that Yan Mo did not socialize with people and was not easy to approach. Even the company employees gave him the nickname "Black and White Impermanence."
Early in the morning, Yan Mo personally went to Zhao Qiaoyi and thoughtfully prepared breakfast for her, and took her to the mall. Zhao Qiaoyi was very nervous, so she called Hao Wuyi for help. Hao Wuyi told her that Yan Mo must be going to give her a makeover, and Zhao Qiaoyi was looking forward to it. Unexpectedly, when they finally arrived at the mall, Yan Mo just brought Zhao Qiaoyi to help him pick out clothes.
Zhao Qiaoyi saw a dress she liked in the mall, and Yan Mo encouraged her to try it on, but asked her to pay for it herself, so Zhao Qiaoyi had to give up. After getting off work from the hospital, Zhao Guanchao met his ex-girlfriend from his school days, who told Zhao Guanchao that she was getting married and invited Zhao Guanchao to attend her wedding in person.
Zhao Guanchao shamelessly asked Hao Wuyi to go with him, but Hao Wuyi refused. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo were working overtime together in the company. Yan Mo finally couldn't help but ask Zhao Qiaoyi the real purpose of coming to Beijing.
Episode 19 Recap
Facing Yan Mo's questioning, Zhao Qiaoyi casually made up an excuse to muddle through. Yan Mo wasn't satisfied with her answer. When Zhao Qiaoyi asked if he could give her a ride to the wedding tomorrow, Yan Mo flatly refused. Yan Mo sat in the car, complaining to himself that he had gotten up at 6:00 AM to cross half of Beijing just to pick her up for work.
Now, he was conflicted about whether or not to pick Zhao Qiaoyi up from overtime. He had a mental battle in the car but still chose to pick Zhao Qiaoyi up. Zhao Qiaoyi was surprised to see Yan Mo back, but Yan Mo hid his true feelings, falsely claiming that he had forgotten something and would drop her off on the way back. When Yan Mo drove out, the security guard charged him 100 yuan for parking.
Zhao Qiaoyi was surprised at how expensive the parking fee was, only then realizing that Yan Mo had been parked there for 10 hours. Yan Mo tried to deny it, but Zhao Qiaoyi looked at him with a meaningful expression. Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to tell her about the absurd thing Zhao Guanchao had asked her to do – accompany him to his ex-girlfriend's wedding – and said she had already refused.
Zhao Qiaoyi completely agreed with Hao Wuyi's decision. The two of them complained about Zhao Guanchao together. While they were chatting, they realized that they were going to the same wedding and agreed to go together. While Zhao Qiaoyi was still on the phone, someone suddenly knocked on the door. At the door was the dress that Zhao Qiaoyi had liked when she and Yan Mo were shopping last time.
Zhao Qiaoyi was overjoyed to receive the dress and immediately called Yan Mo, her happiness overflowing, but Yan Mo responded calmly. After hanging up, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart. The next day, Hao Wuyi dressed up meticulously early in the morning, looking as beautiful as a fairy. Zhao Guanchao was extremely surprised when he opened the door and saw Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi said that she was willing to reluctantly accompany him to the wedding.
Zhao Guanchao deliberately teased her and told Hao Wuyi that there was a sudden emergency at the hospital and he had canceled his trip to the wedding. Hao Wuyi looked disappointed upon hearing this.
In order to match the dress that Yan Mo bought her, Zhao Qiaoyi specially went to the mall to buy the pair of high heels she had liked when shopping with Hao Wuyi, only to find that the size she wanted had already been bought by someone else, so she had no choice but to buy a size smaller. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo were unable to attend the wedding, but they unexpectedly met Cheng Youmei, Yan Mo's childhood sweetheart.
Cheng Youmei was actually wearing the pair of shoes that she had liked before. Cheng Youmei declared her dominance to Zhao Qiaoyi arrogantly, directly stating that she was Yan Mo's fiancée. Zhao Qiaoyi felt saddened after hearing this. Cheng Youmei came to Yan Mo's company this time as their company's executive director. Fei Dachuan wanted to find ways to drive her away after learning this.
He felt injustice for Zhao Qiaoyi, but Yan Mo did nothing and said that Cheng Youmei was indeed capable. Since Cheng Youmei arrived at Yan Mo's company, she had been deliberately finding fault with Zhao Qiaoyi, even tormenting her after work hours. Zhao Qiaoyi had no choice but to silently endure all of this. The next morning, the company colleagues were discussing it.
Everyone had witnessed Cheng Youmei's harassment of Zhao Qiaoyi and speculated about the gossip and love history of the company's superiors. At the same time, they sympathized with Zhao Qiaoyi's situation. Yan Mo felt sorry for Zhao Qiaoyi when he saw her exhausted recently. He specially called Zhao Qiaoyi to his office, warning her that she came to the company to work, not to be Cheng Youmei's nanny. Zhao Qiaoyi looked aggrieved.
Yan Mo felt helpless looking at her silly appearance, so he specially took a book for Zhao Qiaoyi to read, actually wanting her to take a break. When Hao Wuyi got up early in the morning and planned to continue writing her novel, she found that her super-sense novel was locked. She immediately called the company to inquire.
The editor in charge of Hao Wuyi scheduled a face-to-face meeting with Hao Wuyi to discuss this matter and once again advised her to give up on the idea of finding another way, warning her that she must obey the company's regulations. Otherwise, the company could make her popular and also block her. Hao Wuyi was furious after hearing this and almost attacked her editor.
Hao Wuyi returned home with a belly full of anger but suddenly fell and sat down at her door. Zhao Guanchao happened to be mopping the corridor and laughed when he saw Hao Wuyi's disheveled appearance. Hao Wuyi went home angrily and felt scared again when she thought of the editor's harsh words to her. While she was feeling lonely and helpless, Zhao Guanchao suddenly appeared.
Although he always seemed to be saying one thing and meaning another to Hao Wuyi, he was very concerned about her in his heart. He comforted her gently and thoughtfully bandaged Hao Wuyi's wounds. Afterward, Hao Wuyi found Zhao Qiaoyi and talked to her about Zhao Guanchao in a roundabout way. Zhao Qiaoyi said that she knew her brother too well, saying that he was definitely a bachelor and whoever fell in love with him would be unlucky.
Zhao Qiaoyi's stepfather and mother had been silently caring about their two children who were struggling in Beijing, often paying attention to news and weather reports about Beijing, calling Zhao Qiaoyi to often remind her, and worrying that Zhao Qiaoyi was not eating well there, so they sent Zhao Qiaoyi a large amount of their own pickled kimchi.
At the company, Cheng Youmei invited everyone in the company to eat, but Zhao Qiaoyi refused because she brought kimchi made by her mother and stayed in the company alone. Fei Dachuan stayed behind with Zhao Qiaoyi righteously to eat together. During the meal, Zhao Qiaoyi asked Fei Dachuan about Yan Mo and Cheng Youmei. After the company dinner, Yan Mo left Cheng Youmei alone to talk.
Cheng Youmei was originally looking forward to being alone with Yan Mo, but unexpectedly Yan Mo was only standing up for Zhao Qiaoyi, directly telling Cheng Youmei not to make things difficult for Zhao Qiaoyi anymore.
Episode 20 Recap
Cheng Youmei, however, had a face full of dissatisfaction, feeling that Yan Mo was not worth it, and complained loudly that during the two years Yan Mo studied abroad in the UK, he was completely down because of Zhao Qiaoyi, spending his days staring blankly in his room and drowning his sorrows in alcohol, which is why she treated Zhao Qiaoyi this way.
A few young nurses at Zhao Guanchao's hospital originally wanted to check Hao Wuyi's latest updated novel, but when they opened the website, they were surprised to find that the columns were all empty, with no information. Zhao Guanchao, standing nearby, righteous declared that he could help them inquire about this matter. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother called Zhao Qiaoyi late at night again, concerned about her daily life and diet.
Because Zhao Qiaoyi was working overtime, her tone was full of impatience, and she spoke carelessly, hurting Zhao Suying's heart. Zhao Suying wept, full of grievances, because her concern for her daughter was not understood. After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qiaoyi also felt a bit helpless. Zhao Qiaoyi's phone conversation with her mother was overheard by Cheng Youmei, who was nearby. Cheng Youmei was very envious of Zhao Qiaoyi, having her mother's constant attention.
When Cheng Youmei was eating with her father, she suddenly brought up the topic of making kimchi. However, her father told her to have the nanny make it for her. Cheng Youmei refused and was filled with disappointment. Yan Mo sat at home and suddenly recalled the time he was heartbroken and wept for Zhao Qiaoyi in the UK.
When Yan Mo was in the UK, he was heartbroken upon unexpectedly hearing that Zhao Qiaoyi had a boyfriend, and after getting drunk, he cried his heart out. Zhao Qiaoyi made a video call home to ask about the situation. Because her mother was still angry about Zhao Qiaoyi's defiance last time, she stubbornly refused to video chat with Zhao Qiaoyi. Learning that her mother was still upset, Zhao Qiaoyi, looking discouraged, found Zhao Guanchao to discuss a solution.
Zhao Guanchao comforted her and told her to call her mother herself to apologize. Zhao Suying called Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi originally thought she would be scolded by her mother, but unexpectedly, her mother took the initiative to apologize to her. Just then, a heavy downpour suddenly started.
After hanging up the phone with her mother, Zhao Qiaoyi cried bitterly in the rain, regretting losing her temper casually with the person closest to her and always hurting the mother who loved her the most. Yan Mo went to find Zhao Qiaoyi. Seeing that she had a cold, he was very worried and immediately went out to buy medicine for her. Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to go home, she missed her mother.
For the sake of her love, she had traveled a long way from home to Beijing. After Yan Mo left, she could no longer hold back her emotions and lay on the bed, crying loudly.
After buying the medicine for Zhao Qiaoyi, Yan Mo looked at her sleeping peacefully on the bed, took out a record he was giving to Zhao Qiaoyi, and recalled the time they listened to music together while studying, when Zhao Qiaoyi mentioned wanting a signed record from Paul. Unexpectedly, Yan Mo had always remembered it and made it happen for her. Hao Wuyi had recently been feeling unwell, often experiencing nausea and vomiting.
She looked it up online and only then discovered these were symptoms of pregnancy. Zhao Guanchao knocked on Hao Wuyi's door but found no one home, so he specially called to ask about the recent updates to Hao Wuyi's novel. However, Hao Wuyi didn't want to talk to Zhao Guanchao and coldly hung up the phone. Zhao Qiaoyi specially asked her parents to help her try to get tickets for Jay Chou's concert, but unexpectedly, they couldn't get any.
Zhao Qiaoyi felt very disappointed. Just then, Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi, originally wanting to tell her about her pregnancy, but for a moment, she didn't know how to start. The next day, Yan Mo's roommate from the UK came to Yan Mo's company to collaborate on a project with Yan Mo. The roommate took the opportunity in front of Zhao Qiaoyi to bring up Yan Mo's embarrassing stories from the UK and talked about him drinking heavily there.
Finally, Yan Mo straightforwardly admitted that he got drunk and cried loudly. Zhao Qiaoyi remained silent after hearing this. Hao Wuyi met Zhao Qiaoyi and, with no other choice, told her about her pregnancy. She tearfully confided in Zhao Qiaoyi that she would quietly give birth to the child and raise it alone. Zhao Qiaoyi was furious upon hearing this and angrily wanted to find Zhao Guanchao. However, Hao Wuyi pleaded with Zhao Qiaoyi not to tell Zhao Guanchao.
Zhao Qiaoyi couldn't stand it and furiously wanted to go confront Zhao Guanchao. Finally, at Hao Wuyi's repeated requests, she temporarily dropped the matter. Zhao Qiaoyi was unhappy because of Hao Wuyi's situation. Just then, Cheng Youmei called to order Zhao Qiaoyi around. Zhao Qiaoyi claimed she was taking the afternoon off, but Cheng Youmei was still relentless. Finally, Fei Dachuan found out and stepped forward righteously to help her.
Yan Mo learned that a company employee could get tickets for Jay Chou's concert, so he privately bought two tickets from him. The employee also revealed that Zhao Qiaoyi had taken the afternoon off to go to the hospital. Yan Mo immediately called Zhao Qiaoyi to ask, but Zhao Qiaoyi refused to answer. Yan Mo suddenly lost his temper because of this, while the employee nearby looked confused.
Zhao Qiaoyi went to the hospital to accompany Hao Wuyi to her appointment and carefully asked the doctor about various things to pay attention to during pregnancy. After the consultation, she came out and ran into Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao kindly asked about Zhao Qiaoyi's situation, but Zhao Qiaoyi was evasive and still hid Hao Wuyi's matter. Zhao Qiaoyi went to visit Hao Wuyi and thoughtfully brought her a lot of things.
Zhao Qiaoyi said she would always accompany Hao Wuyi and never abandon her. Hao Wuyi was deeply moved by this. Fei Dachuan went on errands for Cheng Youmei to help Zhao Qiaoyi. As soon as the two met, they were like fire and water. When Fei Dachuan saw that Cheng Youmei had a cold and was sick, his attitude immediately softened, and he thoughtfully took care of her.
Episode 21 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi called Yan Mo to apologize for not answering his call today, and personally went downstairs to wait for him. Zhao Qiaoyi lied that she had bought an extra ticket and asked him to go to the concert with her. Zhao Guanchao recalled Zhao Qiaoyi's abnormal behavior at the hospital and felt she was hiding something from him, guessing that Zhao Qiaoyi might be pregnant. Zhao Guanchao sent a message to arrange a meeting with Yan Mo.
As soon as Zhao Guanchao saw Yan Mo, tensions flared, and the two got into a fight. Finally, Zhao Guanchao told Yan Mo his guess, and the two went together to find Zhao Qiaoyi to ask about the child. Zhao Qiaoyi immediately panicked, unsure how to speak, and quickly made an excuse to go back to the room, sending a message to Yan Mo telling him the truth.
After Zhao Qiaoyi came out, Yan Mo tacitly cooperated with Zhao Qiaoyi to conceal the matter. Hao Wuyi told Zhao Qiaoyi she wanted to go to the United States to give birth to the child alone. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, advised Hao Wuyi to tell Zhao Guanchao about it. Hao Wuyi tearfully told Zhao Qiaoyi that she had already fallen in love with Zhao Guanchao but didn't know how to confess.
At home, Hao Wuyi mustered the courage to write a letter to tell Zhao Guanchao about this matter, repeatedly writing and tearing it up, still struggling. Zhao Guanchao went to find Hao Wuyi, but she still refused to open the door. Zhao Guanchao then tried the door lock password himself, and unexpectedly, he guessed correctly – it was his sister's birthday numbers.
Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi happened to run into Wang Wei, the colleague who previously sold Yan Mo tickets, at the entrance of Jay Chou's concert. Wang Wei accidentally revealed that the two tickets Yan Mo bought were given to him. It was only then that Zhao Qiaoyi learned Yan Mo had also secretly bought two tickets.
As they were about to enter, Zhao Qiaoyi saw a young boy who wanted to see the concert but was sad because he didn't have enough money. Unable to bear it, Zhao Qiaoyi gave him her ticket. In the end, the two didn't watch the concert and went to eat hot pot together. During the meal, Yan Mo brought up the blog entry Zhao Qiaoyi had written about her 'boyfriend' on her QQ Zone during college.
Zhao Qiaoyi told him, however, that she didn't have a boyfriend during college; 'Boyfriend' was the name of her college roommate's dog. Zhao Qiaoyi teased Yan Mo, asking if he had secretly followed her blog, which made Yan Mo extremely awkward. After Yan Mo returned home, he couldn't stop chuckling upon learning it was just a misunderstanding. Zhao Qiaoyi submitted the proposal she wrote about health bracelets to Cheng Youmei.
Cheng Youmei, however, was extremely dissatisfied with the proposal and sarcastically ridiculed Zhao Qiaoyi, embarrassing her. Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to complain that her mother suddenly asked her to return to Nanchuan. Hao Wuyi worried that her pregnancy would be revealed. When Hao Wuyi saw her mother, she was trembling with fear, but Hao Wuyi's mother told her she was going to immigrate and would sell the house in China.
Hao Wuyi was very angry at her mother's autocratic behavior, not even discussing such an important matter with her. Zhao Qiaoyi worked overtime to redo the health bracelet proposal but had no clue how to proceed. Yan Mo proactively gave Zhao Qiaoyi a hint: find an authoritative expert on health concepts for consultation. Zhao Qiaoyi then thought of Li Huanzhang, an expert in health nutrition.
However, there had been no news of Li Huanzhang for a long time, and it was difficult to contact him. Zhao Guanchao was once a closed-door disciple of Li Huanzhang. With no other option, Zhao Qiaoyi finally had to go find Zhao Guanchao to ask about Professor Li Huanzhang. Zhao Qiaoyi tried every means to please Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao asked Zhao Qiaoyi to tell him about Hao Wuyi.
With no choice, Zhao Qiaoyi had to tell Zhao Guanchao the news that Hao Wuyi had returned to Nanchuan. Cheng Youmei secretly entered Yan Mo's office after work and used his computer, but was discovered by Fei Dachuan. Cheng Youmei had to lie, saying she was just helping Yan Mo send an email. When Yan Mo returned to his office, he found his computer had been used, so he called Zhao Qiaoyi to ask if she knew anything.
Zhao Qiaoyi didn't know. Zhao Qiaoyi subtly hinted she wanted to work overtime with Yan Mo, but unexpectedly, Yan Mo, the 'steel-straight man', directly refused. Zhao Guanchao gave Zhao Qiaoyi Professor Li Huanzhang's address. Zhao Qiaoyi took leave to complete the task. Yan Mo was worried about Zhao Qiaoyi's safety and accompanied her. While driving, Yan Mo deliberately teased Zhao Qiaoyi, teaching her German.
Zhao Qiaoyi asked for the pronunciation of "hooligan" in German, but Yan Mo deliberately said the German pronunciation for "I love you" and made Zhao Qiaoyi repeat it multiple times. Tian Weimin and Zhao Suying were fooling around on the road and almost crashed into Hao Wuyi, who was driving. When Hao Wuyi saw they were Zhao Qiaoyi's parents, she drove them home.
Zhao Qiaoyi's mother just happened to ask Hao Wuyi to take her practice driving so it would be convenient for future trips. Zhao Guanchao was on a date with a woman at a bookstore. Zhao Guanchao asked the shop assistant about Hao Wuyi's books, but the assistant said Hao Wuyi's books had been shelved indefinitely. The woman next to him, unaware of Zhao Guanchao's relationship with Hao Wuyi, heavily slandered Hao Wuyi. Zhao Guanchao, however, fiercely defended Hao Wuyi's reputation, making the woman accompanying him extremely awkward.
Episode 22 Recap
Hao Wuyi took Zhao Qiaoyi's mother for driving practice. Zhao Qiaoyi's mother made frequent mistakes due to being too nervous. Throughout the drive, Hao Wuyi was constantly worried for the child in her belly. After they finished practicing, both were still shaken. Hao Wuyi encouraged Zhao Qiaoyi's mother to keep practicing more.
Zhao Qiaoyi's mother also advised Hao Wuyi to ease the conflict with her own mother, telling her to communicate more with her mother and praising Hao Wuyi's various strengths. As she left, although she saw Tian Weimin and Zhao Qiaoyi's mother arguing and bickering, they were also loving and sweet, which made her feel envious. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo personally went to see Li Huanzhang.
However, Li Huanzhang had a strange temper and refused to meet them, closing the door and even pinching Zhao Qiaoyi's hand in the process. Seeing this, Yan Mo was instantly displeased and turned to leave. Zhao Qiaoyi caught up with Yan Mo. Yan Mo showed concern for Zhao Qiaoyi's injury. Zhao Qiaoyi was unwilling to leave just like that, so she persuaded Yan Mo to go back again. Zhao Qiaoyi went to the door again.
Li Huanzhang had no choice but to let her in. Only upon entering did Zhao Qiaoyi see that Professor Li Huanzhang's wife had passed away, so she began to persuade Professor Li Huanzhang by appealing to his emotions and reasoning with him. However, the professor remained unmoved. Zhao Qiaoyi stubbornly stated that she would come again. Cheng Youmei wanted to eat crawfish, so she personally went to find Fei Dachuan.
At first, Fei Dachuan refused, but Cheng Youmei pleaded repeatedly, so he reluctantly let her in. Fei Dachuan mocked Cheng Youmei for not knowing how to eat crawfish and deliberately provoked her. Cheng Youmei then bit Fei Dachuan hard. After they had eaten their fill, Cheng Youmei started complaining about Yan Mo accompanying Zhao Qiaoyi for work. She compared herself to Zhao Qiaoyi and asked Fei Dachuan who he would choose if he had to make a choice.
Fei Dachuan chose Cheng Youmei without hesitation, laughing that if he chose Zhao Qiaoyi, he would definitely be beaten to death by Yan Mo. Under Fei Dachuan's patient explanation, Cheng Youmei also began to ponder. Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to complain about her mother's self-centeredness. Zhao Qiaoyi advised Hao Wuyi to discuss things properly with her mother. But when she went to discuss with her mother, her mother was focused on dealing with immigration matters and ignored her.
Hao Wuyi felt she was wasting her time, so she went straight to Zhao Qiaoyi's home for dinner, unexpectedly finding that Zhao Guanchao had returned home at that moment. Zhao Guanchao had personally returned to Nanchuan to clarify because Hao Wuyi had refused to answer his calls. Hao Wuyi felt guilty and wanted to avoid Zhao Guanchao. Finally, under Zhao Guanchao's probing, he learned the news of her pregnancy.
Zhao Qiaoyi's health bracelet proposal was stolen by her rival Cheng Ye, who preemptively released a public announcement to the media. After Yan Mo learned the news, all his hard work during this period went up in smoke. He stayed in the basketball court by himself, silent. Zhao Qiaoyi was very worried about Yan Mo, so she went to the company to find him.
Zhao Qiaoyi silently stayed with him, but Yan Mo chose to want to be alone in quiet. After Fei Dachuan got the news, he was also extremely anxious at home. He suddenly remembered Cheng Youmei's previous unauthorized entry into Yan Mo's office, so he rushed to find Cheng Youmei to question whether she had leaked the company's secrets to her brother Cheng Ye. Cheng Youmei flatly denied it and punched Fei Dachuan.
The two ran to Yan Mo to confront each other. Yan Mo cleared Cheng Youmei's suspicion, explaining that Cheng Youmei had indeed mistakenly sent an email with her own pictures to Yan Mo's mailbox that day and wanted to secretly delete it. Yan Mo held an emergency meeting at the company.
Since things had come to this point, Yan Mo came up with a new idea: launch the health bracelet early and do word-of-mouth marketing, providing the health bracelet to customers for free use. Fei Dachuan, however, felt this move was too risky and that funds would definitely not be able to circulate then. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, agreed with Yan Mo's approach, feeling that they couldn't just sit and wait for death and could give it a try.
After everyone received Yan Mo's instructions, they began working tirelessly to salvage the situation. Zhao Qiaoyi saw Yan Mo still working overtime at the company and thoughtfully ordered takeout for him. Zhao Qiaoyi also didn't answer Zhao Guanchao's calls, so Zhao Guanchao conspired with their mother to contact Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Guanchao asked about Hao Wuyi's pregnancy. Knowing she couldn't hide it anymore, Zhao Qiaoyi told him everything truthfully and gave Zhao Guanchao Hao Wuyi's prenatal check-up time.
Zhao Qiaoyi called Hao Wuyi to tell her. Hao Wuyi felt indignant that Zhao Qiaoyi's bracelet proposal was stolen, while Zhao Qiaoyi confessed to Hao Wuyi that Zhao Guanchao already knew everything. After hanging up the phone, Hao Wuyi fell into deep thought. Just then, she suddenly ran into her high school homeroom teacher.
Episode 23 Recap
Teacher Gao took Hao Wuyi out to eat. Hao Wuyi told Teacher Gao about her pregnancy. Hao Wuyi was at a loss and asked Teacher Gao what he would do if a woman a man didn't love got pregnant with his child. Teacher Gao, however, talked incessantly and lectured her at length. Hao Wuyi felt sleepy after listening. Cheng Youmei and Fei Dachuan went together to promote their health bracelet to Cheng Youmei's cousin.
The other party, however, poured a basin of cold water on them. Fei Dachuan was angry and wanted to fight him but was stopped by Cheng Youmei. The cousin advised Cheng Youmei to leave Yan Mo's company, but Cheng Youmei lost her temper at him. Zhao Qiaoyi made a very cute panda bento box that looked like a bear and sent it to Yan Mo's office.
When Hao Wuyi went to the hospital alone for a prenatal check-up, she was surprised to find that she was not pregnant. Instead, she felt lost. Just then, Zhao Guanchao suddenly rushed to the hospital and told Hao Wuyi he would be responsible for her and affectionately proposed to marry her. Hao Wuyi struggled to tell Zhao Guanchao the truth but in the end couldn't bear to.
After returning home, Hao Wuyi anxiously called Zhao Qiaoyi, but Zhao Qiaoyi did not answer because she was busy with work. Just then, Zhao Guanchao frequently called Hao Wuyi, but Hao Wuyi did not dare to answer. After finishing her work, Zhao Qiaoyi replied to Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi told Zhao Qiaoyi everything and told Zhao Qiaoyi that Zhao Guanchao proposed marriage. Zhao Qiaoyi could only first comfort Hao Wuyi and tell her to return to Beijing before talking further.
Hao Wuyi packed her luggage overnight to return to Beijing but was intercepted by Zhao Guanchao, who wanted to accompany her back to Beijing. After Hao Wuyi and Zhao Guanchao returned to Beijing, Zhao Guanchao again entered Hao Wuyi's room without permission. Early in the morning, he prepared a large amount of nutritious breakfast for her and told Hao Wuyi he would take her to the hospital for a prenatal check-up. Hao Wuyi was flustered upon hearing this.
At the hospital, Hao Wuyi deliberately made an excuse to escape at the last minute. Hao Wuyi and all her colleagues personally went to the streets to promote the health bracelet but frequently encountered setbacks. At the bookstore, Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to tell her about Zhao Guanchao taking her to the hospital. And Yan Mo's roommate in the UK happened to be in the bookstore as well and happened to pick up the same book as Hao Wuyi.
He fell in love with Hao Wuyi at first sight and gave his beloved book to Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi went to find Zhao Qiaoyi, still wanting to marry Zhao Guanchao first and tell him later that the child was gone. Zhao Qiaoyi felt that using one lie to cover up another lie was not appropriate. Yan Mo still did not give up on the promotion of the bracelet, readjusted his state, and devoted himself to work.
Just then, Cheng Ye sent people to cause trouble and occupy their exhibition booth. Fei Dachuan was extremely angry and rushed directly to the bar to find Cheng Ye. As soon as the two met, they were like fire and water. People thought they were going to have a big fight, but unexpectedly, the two of them actually played a football game. During the game, Cheng Ye deliberately cheated. Fei Dachuan couldn't stand it, so he wrestled with him. Cheng Ye called bodyguards to gang up on Fei Dachuan. Fortunately, Yan Mo arrived in time.
Episode 24 Recap
Yan Mo took a punch for Fei Dachuan, and several people got into a scuffle. Zhao Qiaoyi and Cheng Youmei arrived and tried to stop them. Cheng Youmei angrily slapped her own brother. Afterwards, Yan Mo blamed Fei Dachuan for being too impulsive, and Fei Dachuan, upset with Yan Mo, didn't want to go home. On the street, Cheng Youmei ran into Fei Dachuan and suggested he take her home.
Cheng Youmei took Fei Dachuan back to her place and applied medicine for him. Cheng Youmei took out a first-aid kit with Batman stickers on it. It was then that Fei Dachuan recognized Cheng Youmei was the "angel" who saved him when he was a child. Fei Dachuan stared intently at Cheng Youmei. Zhao Qiaoyi returned to her place but was suddenly driven out by the landlord and left homeless on the street.
Alone and helpless on the street, Yan Mo appeared and took Zhao Qiaoyi away. In the car, Yan Mo gave Zhao Qiaoyi a severe scolding. Zhao Qiaoyi, full of grievances, finally expressed her love for Yan Mo. Yan Mo stopped the car, hugged Zhao Qiaoyi tightly, and kissed her passionately. Yan Mo took Zhao Qiaoyi to his place, but Zhao Qiaoyi was full of apprehension. After Yan Mo returned home, he confirmed Zhao Qiaoyi's feelings again.
Zhao Qiaoyi no longer denied it. Yan Mo lay in bed chuckling to himself, while Zhao Qiaoyi also tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Neither of them slept all night and were listless when they woke up in the morning. The next day, the two of them went to the company together.
Cheng Youmei informed Yan Mo that the health bracelet Cheng Ye produced was basically identical to theirs and warned Yan Mo that there must be an insider in the company. Yan Mo, however, said he had his own way. Yan Mo's roommate from the UK, Zhou Zhao, talked about important matters with Zhao Qiaoyi and the others. Hao Wuyi came to find Zhao Qiaoyi.
Zhou Zhao recognized Hao Wuyi, greeted her warmly, and offered to take her home, but Hao Wuyi refused. Ever since Fei Dachuan recognized Cheng Youmei was the first love he had been thinking about constantly, she was all he thought about and saw. Cheng Youmei, however, found Fei Dachuan's sudden change in attitude strange. Yan Mo took Zhao Qiaoyi to a pet store to adopt a puppy. The store owner thought Yan Mo was Zhao Qiaoyi's boyfriend.
Yan Mo did not deny it; instead, he directly declared his claim. Zhao Qiaoyi was flattered and asked Yan Mo if he was serious. Yan Mo nodded, expressing his feelings. Zhao Qiaoyi was overjoyed upon hearing this. Fei Dachuan was very happy to learn that Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi were together. Then, thinking of Cheng Youmei, he couldn't help but roll around on the bed. Yan Mo, however, was puzzled by Fei Dachuan's strange behavior.
Hao Wuyi came to Yan Mo's home to find Zhao Qiaoyi and also learned about Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo. Hao Wuyi was happy that her best friend finally found her true love. Yan Mo went to the company with Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, asked Yan Mo not to announce their relationship for now, so as not to interfere with their work. Zhao Guanchao contacted Hao Wuyi again and took Hao Wuyi to buy things for the future baby.
Only when paying did Zhao Guanchao realize he was short on money. Hao Wuyi also felt the money was wasted. Finally, the two agreed and left the mall. As they left, Zhao Guanchao took Hao Wuyi's hand. Yan Mo and the others set up an exhibition booth at a school to promote the health bracelet. Just then, a school director came forward to stop them. Finally, Zhao Guanchao arrived and resolved the issue. Hao Wuyi helped with the promotion along with Zhao Guanchao.
Episode 25 Recap
Zhao Guanchao was the student union president of this school before, so the promotion of the health bracelet went particularly smoothly. Hao Wuyi was also very popular at the promotion event, encountering a group of her fans. Back home, Zhao Qiaoyi's parents, Tian Weiming and Zhao Suying, also worked hard in the community to help their daughter, indirectly promoting the health bracelet from Zhao Qiaoyi's company to their neighbors.
Seeing everyone's persistent efforts in promoting the health bracelet, Zhao Qiaoyi was reminded of the scene during her school days when her classmates united to complete a difficult task. While running in the morning, Cheng Youmei called Yan Mo to report that their online sales performance was currently optimistic. However, funding was still a concern, and their competitor, Hexin Company, had already established itself and now set prices lower than theirs.
If the competition continued like this, the situation would definitely not be optimistic. So Cheng Youmei suggested replacing parts to reduce costs, but Yan Mo firmly refused, stating that he would absolutely not compromise on quality. During the chat, Yan Mo told Cheng Youmei that he and Zhao Qiaoyi were living together.
Cheng Youmei was furious when she heard this, yelling at Yan Mo intensely on the phone and losing her temper, saying she would remove Yan Mo from her list of future husbands. Afterward, she complained about Fei Dachuan sending her flowers every day for no reason, thinking he was wooing with ulterior motives. Yan Mo, however, laughed when he heard this, saying that Fei Dachuan was repaying a kindness, but Cheng Youmei still seemed oblivious.
Zhao Qiaoyi and Hao Wuyi met for dinner at a restaurant. The two talked about the child again. Zhao Qiaoyi asked Hao Wuyi when she planned to tell Zhao Guanchao the truth, but Hao Wuyi was lost and didn't know what to do. She was still caught up in anticipation, imagining the scene of her and Zhao Guanchao being in love and playing with their child together. Zhao Qiaoyi, listening from the side, also didn't know what to do.
Hao Wuyi was crouching helplessly by the roadside alone. Just then, Yan Mo's British roommate passed by and saw Hao Wuyi, so he went over and crouched by the roadside with her to chat. Hao Wuyi, heavy-hearted, told him about her situation. She was just very scared in her heart, which was why she repeatedly confirmed with different people what the consequences of her lie to Zhao Guanchao would be.
Hao Wuyi finally mustered the courage to go to Zhao Guanchao's hospital. Zhao Guanchao also sensed that something was wrong with Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi confessed everything to Zhao Guanchao and kept apologizing to him. However, Zhao Guanchao pretended not to care after hearing it, deliberately showing a feeling of relief. Hao Wuyi, however, couldn't help but smile bitterly inside.
After returning home, she kept thinking about how considerate Zhao Guanchao had been to her when she was pretending to be pregnant. Meanwhile, Zhao Guanchao also returned home and silently packed away the various items he and Hao Wuyi had bought for the baby at the mall before. The two of them missed each other. Zhao Qiaoyi and Fei Dachuan cooked dinner and waited for Yan Mo to eat. During dinner, Zhao Qiaoyi suggested finding another place to live.
However, Yan Mo obstructed her in every possible way, deliberately making Zhao Qiaoyi work overtime to prevent her from having time and opportunity to look for a rental place. Early in the morning, Zhao Qiaoyi laid down three rules with Yan Mo: they couldn't commute together, couldn't have lunch together, and couldn't have any intimate language or physical contact at the company. Yan Mo, however, chose to remain silent.
Afterward, Zhao Qiaoyi wanted to ride in Yan Mo's car to the company, but Yan Mo refused to give her a ride, citing their three rules. This resulted in Zhao Qiaoyi being late for work and being punished by Yan Mo to stay and work overtime in the evening. At the company, Yan Mo had a silly grin like someone in love on his face during the meeting, causing the company staff to gossip among themselves.
Fei Dachuan sent Cheng Youmei flowers again, but Cheng Youmei heartlessly threw them into the trash can. Fei Dachuan was sad when he found out. At Zhao Qiaoyi's suggestion, Fei Dachuan thoughtfully arranged heart-shaped candles on Cheng Youmei's desk. Cheng Youmei angrily put out the candles on the desk. Fei Dachuan returned to the company looking listless because he had been rejected repeatedly.
After Hao Wuyi confessed to Zhao Guanchao, she went abroad to relax her mood, while Zhao Guanchao was also often absent-minded. Hao Wuyi was slow to return to the country, so Zhao Qiaoyi asked about her return date, but Hao Wuyi was still worried whether Zhao Guanchao still held a grudge. Having no other option, Zhao Qiaoyi asked Zhao Guanchao out. Zhao Guanchao, however, very calmly told Zhao Qiaoyi that he had already let it go.
After dinner, Zhao Guanchao offered to take Zhao Qiaoyi home, but Zhao Qiaoyi was extremely nervous, not wanting him to know about her living with Yan Mo. In the end, Zhao Qiaoyi played a little trick to get away with it. Fei Dachuan finally couldn't hold back and directly cornered Cheng Youmei's father in the underground parking lot, claiming he wanted to marry Cheng Youmei and even calling him "father-in-law," leaving Cheng Youmei's father completely dumbfounded.
Yan Mo picked Zhao Qiaoyi up and took her home, and made a feasibility analysis report about living together. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, said directly that science and engineering men were too scary. Finally, under Yan Mo's firm attitude, Zhao Qiaoyi also started to waver, constantly persuading herself in her heart, and eventually tacitly agreed to live together.
Early in the morning, Fei Dachuan rushed into the company and told Yan Mo that he was moving out of his place, wanting to move to Cheng Youmei's home to take care of her up close and begin a full-scale pursuit of Cheng Youmei. Yan Mo, however, secretly rejoiced after hearing this, perhaps thinking to himself that the super-watt lightbulb at home was finally leaving. The other company staff also heard and cheered Fei Dachuan on from the side.
Episode 26 Recap
Fei Dachuan secretly came to Cheng Youmei's house, deliberately cut their circuit breaker, and afterwards pretended to be from the property management to help them check the breaker, claiming to the nanny at Cheng Youmei's home that it would take at least three to five days to restore power. Upon learning about the power outage from the nanny at home, Cheng Youmei did not go directly home.
On the way, however, she encountered Fei Dachuan, who had planned this for a long time. Fei Dachuan sang and played an instrument affectionately on the path Cheng Youmei had to take to get home, and had set up a tent and prepared a romantic candlelit dinner, surrounded by colorful lights. The atmosphere was very warm, and Cheng Youmei was touched by this. All the company colleagues gathered together to discuss holding a New Year's Eve party.
However, Yan Mo suddenly proposed that the party be held at his place. Everyone fell silent, not daring to raise any objections. Hao Wuyi finally returned to the country. Zhao Guanchao saw garbage at the door of Hao Wuyi's apartment, so he knocked to ask. After a formal exchange of greetings upon meeting, the two fell silent. Zhao Qiaoyi was unhappy about Yan Mo hosting the party at his home, feeling that office romance should be low-key.
She wanted Yan Mo to change the location, but Yan Mo was firm and said he wouldn't change his mind. Yan Mo's British roommate Zhou Zhao took the initiative to give Hao Wuyi a gift. Afterwards, Hao Wuyi also mentioned this to Zhao Qiaoyi and guessed that Zhou Zhao might like her. She also said she was not averse to him, so Zhao Qiaoyi suggested bringing him along when they have the costume party at Yan Mo's place.
Zhao Qiaoyi quickly packed away all her things at Yan Mo's home. Fei Dachuan also came over to chat with Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi casually asked about his progress with Cheng Youmei. Fei Dachuan got a hint from Zhao Qiaoyi, remembering that Cheng Youmei liked Catwoman costumes. The party grandly began. Zhao Qiaoyi deliberately pretended not to be familiar with Yan Mo, but nearly gave herself away through a few small details.
During the party, Cheng Youmei also dressed sexily and charmingly, wearing a Catwoman costume, drawing gasps of admiration from everyone. Everyone was celebrating upstairs, but Wang Wei, an employee from Yan Mo's company, had been waiting downstairs, hesitating. When he saw Yan Mo, he submitted his resignation to Yan Mo. Yan Mo, however, said he had already known about this, which greatly shocked Wang Wei. It turned out that the health bracelet leak was done by Wang Wei's girlfriend.
Wang Wei hadn't known before that his girlfriend was actually Cheng Ye's assistant. She deliberately borrowed study materials from Wang Wei as an excuse to steal confidential information from Yan Mo's company and reveal it to Cheng Ye. Wang Wei confessed to Yan Mo that he hadn't revealed this earlier because he wanted to make up for his mistake and resign after the company overcame the difficulties.
Seeing Wang Wei's sincere apology, Yan Mo chose to be lenient and forgive him, and kept him at the company. Wang Wei was immensely grateful for this. Zhao Qiaoyi got drunk at the party. Zhao Guanchao suddenly called, and hearing Zhao Qiaoyi's heavily intoxicated voice on the phone, he became worried and said he was also coming to the party.
After getting drunk, Zhao Qiaoyi's intelligence seemed to go offline, and she revealed her identity as Yan Mo's girlfriend, attracting onlookers. Finally, Yan Mo also frankly admitted his relationship with Zhao Qiaoyi to everyone. Zhao Guanchao happened to arrive just then and spoke to Yan Mo privately, telling him to treat Zhao Qiaoyi well. During the party, because Hao Wuyi wasn't feeling well due to her period, Zhou Zhao was extremely caring and attentive to her.
Meanwhile, Zhao Guanchao, who was watching from the side, immediately felt jealous. Cheng Youmei was wearing a Catwoman costume at the party but kept waiting and didn't see Fei Dachuan, so she eventually left early. On the way, she coincidentally met Fei Dachuan, who was wearing a Batman costume. The two watched the fireworks together on the road and celebrated the New Year. Zhou Zhao proposed kissing Hao Wuyi under the pretext of asking for a New Year's gift.
This scene was witnessed by Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao misunderstood the two of them, and silently turned around and left alone. In fact, the two did not successfully kiss; Hao Wuyi actively avoided it, but Zhao Guanchao saw it from a different angle. The bosses from above Yan Mo's company made things difficult for Fei Dachuan, arguing over the company's profitability.
The bosses demanded the second generation of the bracelet be developed as soon as possible and that the price be doubled, but Fei Dachuan strongly objected. In the end, the meeting ended unhappily. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo were on a business trip and only realized when they arrived at the hotel that Fei Dachuan had booked them a honeymoon suite. They were both slightly embarrassed.
Yan Mo's mother came to Beijing and wanted to have a meal with her son, so she called Yan Mo and casually asked about him and Zhao Qiaoyi. Finally, she learned that they were on a business trip elsewhere and did not disturb them further. Hao Wuyi talked to Zhao Qiaoyi on the phone. Zhao Qiaoyi asked about her progress with Zhou Zhao, but Hao Wuyi was still not interested in Zhou Zhao and complained about his recent strong pursuit of her.
Episode 27 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi suggested to Hao Wuyi that if she didn't like Zhou Zhao, she should tell him. Just then, Zhou Zhao appeared outside Hao Wuyi's door with flowers. Hao Wuyi wanted to take this opportunity to make things clear to him, so she invited Zhou Zhao to have dinner together. Zhou Zhao, however, was very happy, completely unaware.
Zhao Guanchao saw the two leave intimately from a distance, so he secretly followed them to the restaurant and closely watched their every move. Hao Wuyi finally spoke her mind, but Zhou Zhao remained persistent, saying he would continue to work harder. During the meal, Hao Wuyi was distracted and burned her hand. Just then, Zhao Guanchao immediately appeared, quickly helping Hao Wuyi treat the burn.
Zhao Guanchao was flustered with worry, scolding Hao Wuyi for her carelessness while also caring for her injury. Seeing the two of them, Zhou Zhao instantly understood something in his heart, turned around, and quietly left. After Zhao Guanchao and Hao Wuyi returned home, Zhao Guanchao finally expressed his feelings to Hao Wuyi and forcefully kissed her. Hao Wuyi also said that she had been waiting for him to say that for a long time.
The two were moved, hugged each other, and made up. Fei Dachuan received news that the factory warehouse had caught fire, causing a portion of the bracelets to be burned. The pre-sold bracelets had already been sold, leading to an urgent shortage of bracelets. The factory was rushing to make amends, but the biggest problem now was the insufficient raw materials. Substitute materials had to be found, which left Fei Dachuan extremely troubled.
Yan Mo was on a business trip out of town, but his mother suddenly showed up. As soon as she arrived, she started looking everywhere for Zhao Qiaoyi and teased Yan Mo, only to find that the two of them were not sleeping together. Yan Mo could tell that his mother must have something important to say, coming all this way. After hesitating for a moment, Yan Mo's mother told Yan Mo the news that she was getting married.
Yan Mo's face was completely unfazed after hearing this. His subordinate at the company told Fei Dachuan that new substitute materials had been found. There wasn't much difference in the materials, only in price. Fei Dachuan initially wanted to inform Yan Mo about this, but finally remembered his previous conversation with the bosses from the board of directors, so he quietly put down the phone, because he knew Yan Mo would definitely strongly oppose this matter.
Yan Mo's mother wanted to introduce her fiancé to Yan Mo. Yan Mo took Zhao Qiaoyi with him. Before meeting, Zhao Qiaoyi instructed Yan Mo to be friendly, but Yan Mo remained expressionless. Yan Mo's mother arrived at the restaurant arm-in-arm with her fiancé. Unexpectedly, Yan Mo had secretly prepared a gift for his mother's fiancé, which surprised both Yan Mo's mother and Zhao Qiaoyi a little.
At the dinner table, Yan Mo's mother's face was full of sweetness when talking about her fiancé. The two of them were like a harmonious couple at the table. Cheng Youmei returned home, only to find Fei Dachuan asleep on her dining table. She found a bento box made by Fei Dachuan on the table and started eating it by herself. Cheng Youmei's eating noises were too loud, which suddenly woke Fei Dachuan up.
He asked how the bento tasted, but Cheng Youmei said it didn't taste good, despite her true feelings. Afterwards, Fei Dachuan said goodbye and was about to leave, telling Cheng Youmei that he had moved near her home and she could contact him anytime if she needed anything. Yan Mo and his mother's fiancé, Eric, talked alone.
Yan Mo talked to him about his mother, giving countless instructions to someone like a mother hen for the first time, and asked Eric to definitely give his mother happiness. The two finally reached a united front. Cheng Youmei found an excuse to go for a walk, so Fei Dachuan accompanied her. On the way, Fei Dachuan confessed his feelings to Cheng Youmei directly, but Cheng Youmei said she only liked men who could beat her, and challenged Fei Dachuan.
The two came to the arcade and started playing a skeeball game. During the game, Cheng Youmei was jumping around happily like a child, which made Fei Dachuan stare blankly. Zhao Guanchao called Zhao Qiaoyi to ask about her and Yan Mo. Zhao Qiaoyi told Zhao Guanchao everything about Yan Mo's stepfather.
However, Zhao Guanchao, through his own personal experience, knew that this process might seem easy on the surface, but it is actually very difficult to truly accept and digest. So Zhao Guanchao told Zhao Qiaoyi to keep Yan Mo company well for the next couple of days. After hearing this, Zhao Qiaoyi was also very worried about Yan Mo and told Yan Mo to come to her room.
She secretly prepared a surprise for Yan Mo in her room, wanting to make him happy, but unexpectedly a small accident happened midway. The two eventually sat in the room and had a heart-to-heart talk. Yan Mo talked to Zhao Qiaoyi about his family, how he was neglected by his parents due to their work since he was young. Although he felt very disappointed, he also understood his parents very well.
Zhao Qiaoyi leaned her head on him to give him some comfort. Finally, as they talked, they began to kiss uncontrollably. Yan Mo's mother and stepfather were leaving. When they said goodbye, the stepfather gave Yan Mo a small gift, which was a USB drive containing a video the stepfather had filmed for Yan Mo's mother.
In the video, Yan Mo's mother not only talked about her happy life but also expressed her guilt for neglecting Yan Mo when he was young. It was full of deep guilt and profound love for Yan Mo. Yan Mo was also moved to tears. Zhao Guanchao brought Hao Wuyi to the place where he first confessed his feelings to her. The two took a sweet photo together.
Episode 28 Recap
Hao Wuyi posted the photo of the two making a heart shape with their hands on her Moments. Zhao Qiaoyi saw it and immediately called Hao Wuyi to ask about it. Hao Wuyi admitted it without hesitation, but Zhao Qiaoyi expressed concern about it. Zhao Guanchao and Hao Wuyi were playing a match-3 game at home. After finishing the game, they were affectionately playing around when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
They thought it was takeout, but Hao Wuyi found out it was her mother. The two immediately panicked. Finally, Zhao Guanchao had a flash of inspiration and pretended to be a cleaner. Zhao Guanchao found an excuse to leave, but Hao Wuyi's mother called out to him and asked him to continue cleaning. Hao Wuyi's mother was extremely picky about Zhao Guanchao's cleaning work, asking him to clean again and again.
Hao Wuyi was also suffering internally from the side, afraid that their relationship would be exposed. Hao Wuyi also tried hard to explain to Zhao Guanchao that it wasn't that she didn't want to introduce him to her mother, but that her mother was too strict and she was afraid she would make things difficult for Zhao Guanchao. Zhao Guanchao also expressed understanding. Zhao Guanchao was in the hospital, and a young nurse made him a bento box by hand.
While he was eating, Hao Wuyi also brought Zhao Guanchao takeout. Hao Wuyi saw the bento box on Zhao Guanchao's table and asked about it. Zhao Guanchao told a small lie, but unexpectedly it was ruthlessly exposed and slapped in the face a moment later. In the end, Hao Wuyi was big-hearted and didn't get angry. The two were still loving and sweet as before.
Fei Dachuan delivered bento boxes to Cheng Youmei every day, but this time Cheng Youmei suggested going out to eat. So the two made a date to go together. Fei Dachuan was extremely nervous because of this; it was the first time Cheng Youmei had actively asked him out. Fei Dachuan immediately went to Yan Mo for help.
Yan Mo gave him a little hint, but unexpectedly Fei Dachuan ended up taking Cheng Youmei to the company they were most familiar with and asked her to eat McDonald's breakfast. Cheng Youmei looked disappointed after seeing this, turned around, and left. Finally, Fei Dachuan called Zhao Qiaoyi with a confused look on his face to tell her about it. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo were instantly speechless after hearing it.
Zhao Guanchao rejected the hospital's assignment to work out of town in order to stay with Hao Wuyi in Beijing. While at the hospital, Zhao Guanchao suddenly ran into Hao Wuyi's mother. Zhao Guanchao originally wanted to bluff his way through his identity, but he was still recognized by Hao Wuyi's mother's discerning eyes. Hao Wuyi's mother had dinner with Zhao Guanchao.
Zhao Guanchao first politely apologized for lying to her before, but Hao Wuyi's mother said she didn't care at all. During the meal, Hao Wuyi's mother kept encouraging Zhao Guanchao to drink, and Zhao Guanchao could only helplessly drink it. Hao Wuyi's mother then offered a cigarette to Zhao Guanchao, but Zhao Guanchao refused, saying he didn't smoke. Hao Wuyi's mother asked about Zhao Guanchao's family situation and his plans for marriage.
Zhao Guanchao said that he was currently in a period of career struggle and needed to consider it. Hao Wuyi's mother was very dissatisfied and directly told Zhao Guanchao not to consider it, saying that Hao Wuyi's biggest dream was to get married and have children. Hao Wuyi's mother forcefully told Zhao Guanchao to think clearly about this matter again. Facing Hao Wuyi's mother's endless questions and harsh criticism, Zhao Guanchao only felt overwhelmed.
Zhao Guanchao finally returned home drunk and did not tell Hao Wuyi about this. Yan Mo returned to the company. Fei Dachuan stammered and told him about the previous factory fire and how he had taken it upon himself to replace the raw materials for the chips. Yan Mo suggested recalling all products. Fei Dachuan disagreed and had a big argument with Yan Mo.
In the end, they had no choice but to hold an emergency meeting, follow Yan Mo's words, and call each customer one by one to apologize and recall the products. Hao Wuyi's mother invited Zhao Guanchao to dinner again, but Zhao Guanchao avoided it like the plague, deliberately finding various excuses to decline.
Finally, to avoid Hao Wuyi's mother, he had no choice but to voluntarily ask for the three-month assignment in the countryside that the hospital director had previously given him. Yan Mo's face suddenly changed when he received a call from Cheng Youmei. It turned out that the bracelets produced by the company had functional defects exposed due to the replacement of raw materials.
When a citizen wore this bracelet, due to the lack of any warning, the customer suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized. Moreover, this incident was widely publicized by the media, and the company encountered difficulties.
Episode 29 Recap
Yan Mo personally went to the hospital to visit the patient, but he was blamed by the patient's family. Yan Mo wanted to take back the bracelet for testing himself, but the patient's family was unrelenting and drove Yan Mo away. Because of the company's problems, the employees were all talking about it and were worried about the company's future. More and more customers came to the company to make trouble because of the faulty bracelets.
The company's employees were very aggrieved and shed tears when receiving customers. Everyone began to think about their future. Zhao Qiaoyi came back from outside, heard everyone's conversation, and still smiled and gave everyone coffee, and encouraged everyone. Zhao Guanchao went to the countryside with a colleague, but the colleague disliked the dirty and chaotic environment in the countryside, but Zhao Guanchao was full of optimism and made the best of the situation.
Hao Wuyi called Zhao Guanchao, and the two had a sweet conversation. Cheng Youmei went to Yan Mo's office and told him that the investors wanted to withdraw their investment. However, Yan Mo analyzed with Cheng Youmei that there was no problem with the bracelet chip. He planned to do a comprehensive test on the bracelet again, and Cheng Youmei expressed her support and would try her best to hold back the investors.
Hao Wuyi personally went to the place where Zhao Guanchao was working to find him. In order to wait for Zhao Guanchao to get off work, she sat outside alone and fell asleep out of boredom. After Zhao Guanchao finished his work, he looked at Hao Wuyi sleeping with a doting look on his face. Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly ran into Wang Yuran, the transfer student who was bullied on campus when she was in school.
Wang Yuran and Zhao Qiaoyi exchanged greetings and told Zhao Qiaoyi that she was engaged in the acting career, and expressed her gratitude to Zhao Qiaoyi for helping her father and her back then. Zhao Qiaoyi also thanked the goddess Wang Yuran for her message in her yearbook. The two were like old friends and agreed to meet again next time.
Because of the company's problems, Yan Mo locked himself in the house and was unhappy, while Zhao Qiaoyi tried her best to make Yan Mo happy, but Yan Mo still looked unromantic. In the end, Yan Mo responded to Zhao Qiaoyi and made a tender confession. The two were very sweet. Hao Wuyi went to the dormitory to find Zhao Guanchao and happened to meet his colleague Li Bin.
After chatting for a few words, Li Bin accidentally revealed that Zhao Guanchao had volunteered to come to the countryside, and Hao Wuyi learned from Li Bin that Zhao Guanchao had lied to her many times. Hao Wuyi ran away immediately to confront Zhao Guanchao.
Under Hao Wuyi's aggressive questioning, Zhao Guanchao said in a moment of desperation that he had never thought about getting married at all, which caused Hao Wuyi to explode and began to accuse Zhao Guanchao of womanizing, making her feel uneasy and insecure every day. Zhao Guanchao was silent and wanted to hug and comfort Hao Wuyi but was rejected by Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi left sadly, and Zhao Guanchao was also upset.
Early in the morning, Fei Dachuan returned to Cheng Youmei's home dejectedly. Fei Dachuan told Cheng Youmei that he had taken the initiative to surrender to the police station, wanting the police to arrest him, but was told that he was not enough to constitute a crime. Cheng Youmei was very angry about this. She had originally cooked noodles for Fei Dachuan herself, but she deliberately didn't put any seasoning in them because she was angry with Fei Dachuan.
Fei Dachuan still braced himself and devoured it. The failure of the faulty bracelet was widely reported, and negative news continued to emerge. A large number of reporters rushed to Yan Mo's company gate aggressively, and Fei Dachuan had a conflict with the reporters in order to protect everyone and was finally sent to the police station. In the police station, Cheng Youmei accused Fei Dachuan of being rash and impulsive, regardless of the consequences.
Yan Mo was at home and also felt stressed because of this ordeal. Zhao Qiaoyi could only silently accompany and comfort him. In the middle of the night, Zhao Qiaoyi woke up and found Yan Mo smoking outside alone. Yan Mo was silent for a long time. He was afraid that this incident would implicate his girlfriend, so he suggested that Zhao Qiaoyi didn't have to go to work at the company anymore, and he would dissolve the company.
Zhao Qiaoyi looked disappointed and asked him to move out. The two were sad and disheartened. Hao Wuyi broke up with Zhao Guanchao, and Hao Wuyi told her mother this news and accused her. Early the next morning, Yan Mo sent people to distribute compensation to all employees and dissolved the company, but the employees still supported Yan Mo. If the company could overcome the difficulties, they would come back at any time.
Zhao Qiaoyi moved to Hao Wuyi's residence and told her about breaking up with Yan Mo, and Hao Wuyi also told Zhao Qiaoyi that she and Zhao Guanchao had also broken up. The two were in the same boat.
Episode 30 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi returned to Yan Mo's home in Nanchuan and found Yan Mo lying motionless on the sofa. Zhao Qiaoyi was instantly panicked and called out to him forcefully, only to realize he was just asleep. Zhao Qiaoyi was relieved that it was a false alarm. Zhao Qiaoyi accidentally looked through Yan Mo's old phone, which was full of text messages edited by Yan Mo about missing her. Only then did Zhao Qiaoyi truly understand Yan Mo's deep affection.
Hao Wuyi called Zhao Qiaoyi to inform her about her mother. After hearing this, Zhao Qiaoyi rushed to accompany Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi was still unwilling to accept reality and was trying everything to find a hospital for her mother's treatment. After Zhao Qiaoyi returned home, she informed her own mother about Hao Wuyi's mother.
Zhao Qiaoyi also reminded her mother to pay attention to her health, and Zhao Qiaoyi's mother was also very concerned about Zhao Qiaoyi and comforted her about work-related matters. Hao Wuyi and Zhao Qiaoyi went shopping. Hao Wuyi cut off all contact with Zhao Guanchao, so Zhao Guanchao had to call Zhao Qiaoyi to inquire. Zhao Qiaoyi, feeling sorry for Hao Wuyi, scolded her own brother as a jerk, and Hao Wuyi felt great satisfaction hearing this from the side.
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qiaoyi talked about Hao Wuyi's mother's serious illness and advised Hao Wuyi to tell Zhao Guanchao about it so she could have someone to share the burden with. However, Hao Wuyi said she didn't care at all, saying they had already broken up and there was no need for that. Hao Wuyi planned to buy her mother a speaker so she could listen to music and relax.
The two then talked about Hao Wuyi's mother's personal secretary, Zhou Wei. Hao Wuyi also began to feel guilty about her indifference towards her mother and how she often argued with her mother, even falling short compared to the secretary by her mother's side. Zhou Wei, Hao Wuyi's mother's secretary, read to Hao Wuyi's mother by her bedside every day to coax her to sleep.
The caregiver nearby thought that nowadays, filial children are rare when a parent has been sick for a long time, and praised Zhou Wei for her rare and careful care of the patient. However, Zhou Wei told the caregiver that she was not the patient's daughter, which surprised the caregiver greatly. The speakers had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.
Their entire conversation was overheard by Hao Wuyi outside the ward, which instantly made her feel even more guilty. Hao Wuyi's mother already knew that there was nothing more to be done and began to make arrangements for her affairs. She planned to secretly buy a burial plot without telling Hao Wuyi for the time being. After Hao Wuyi found out, she caused a big scene at the cemetery, still unwilling to believe that her mother would be leaving.
At this time, Yan Mo also found a foreign expert for Hao Wuyi to consult about treatment, but learned that Hao Wuyi's mother's cancer had spread and treatment was no longer necessary. He called Hao Wuyi to inform her of this, and Hao Wuyi broke down and cried uncontrollably upon hearing it. Fei Dachuan had previously given Zhao Qiaoyi the key to Yan Mo's home. Zhao Qiaoyi opened the door and entered Yan Mo's home directly.
Assuming Yan Mo was not home, she took a picture of Yan Mo and talked to herself as if no one was around, complaining and cursing Yan Mo. She even boldly declared that if Yan Mo's startup failed, she could temporarily support him. Yan Mo, who was hiding on the side, remained silent after hearing this. Zhao Qiaoyi still made the call and informed Zhao Guanchao about this matter. At this time, a young nurse was constantly bothering Zhao Guanchao.
Zhao Guanchao clearly rejected the young nurse for Hao Wuyi and quickly returned to Nanchuan to find Hao Wuyi. This was when Hao Wuyi was most lonely and helpless. Guanchao's appearance made her instantly drop her facade of strength, and the two hugged tightly. After Guanchao comforted Hao Wuyi, he returned home and talked to Zhao Qiaoyi about Hao Wuyi.
Guanchao finally confessed his innermost thoughts to Zhao Qiaoyi: the reason for his fear of marriage was the trauma left by his biological father, Zhao Lei, in his childhood. He was afraid that he had the same bad genes as his biological father and that he would fail Hao Wuyi.
Episode 31 Recap
Zhao Qiaoyi accidentally learns that Yan Mo has always loved her deeply. Hao Wuyi's mother has cancer, and Zhao Guanchao rushes back to Nanchuan to share the burden. Hao Wuyi learns from her mother's secretary, Zhou Wei, that her mother had known she had late-stage cancer for a long time, but she didn't want Hao Wuyi to be sad for her, preferring Hao Wuyi to think she had gone to the United States. This deeply saddened Hao Wuyi.
Zhao Qiaoyi returns to Yan Mo's home in Nanchuan and finds Yan Mo lying motionless on the sofa. She goes to check on him and discovers he's just asleep. Zhao Qiaoyi is relieved and goes back to the room to get a blanket for Yan Mo. She accidentally discovers Yan Mo's old phone, which he's always used, and it records his longing for her.
Zhao Qiaoyi finally understands that love is fair to everyone; just as she once felt she wasn't good enough for Yan Mo, Yan Mo also has moments of insecurity in love. Zhao Qiaoyi gets the bracelet from the troublesome family members for testing, and the owner of the bracelet also agrees to stand up and testify for them, which makes everyone happy.
Hao Wuyi calls Zhao Qiaoyi to tell her about her mother's illness, and Hao Wuyi rushes home to be with her. Hao Wuyi is unwilling to accept the reality of being separated from her mother by death and asks Yan Mo to help translate the medical records, deciding to take her mother to Germany for treatment. Zhao Qiaoyi can only encourage and support her.
Zhao Qiaoyi returns home and tells Zhao Suying about it, urging her mother to take care of her health. Zhao Qiaoyi accompanies Hao Wuyi shopping. Hao Wuyi wants to buy a speaker for her mother to listen to music. Zhao Qiaoyi asks why Zhou Wei and Hao Wuyi's mother have such a good relationship. Hao Wuyi is also puzzled, saying they are more like mother and daughter.
Hao Wuyi now regrets deeply that she has always refused to listen to her mother and has never properly accompanied her. Zhao Qiaoyi suggests that Hao Wuyi tell Zhao Guanchao about this, as such a matter should be shared by two people. However, Hao Wuyi feigns nonchalance and says there's no need because they have already broken up. Hao Wuyi returns to the ward and finds Zhou Wei reading to Hao Wuyi's mother.
The caregivers working nearby all think Zhou Wei is a filial daughter, which makes Hao Wuyi feel even worse. Hao Wuyi's mother knows her time is short, so she goes with Zhou Wei to see her burial plot. Hao Wuyi throws a fit when she finds out. Zhou Wei tries to persuade Hao Wuyi to accept this fact. Hao Wuyi retorts by asking if Zhou Wei could accept her mother, who she has depended on since childhood, leaving her.
Zhou Wei cannot help but tear up upon hearing this. Yan Mo calls Hao Wuyi, saying that the German doctors also believe there is no longer a need for treatment for Hao Wuyi's mother. Hao Wuyi breaks down and cries loudly after hearing this. Zhao Qiaoyi returns while Yan Mo is on the phone with Fei Dachuan, and he quickly hides. Zhao Qiaoyi sits on the sofa watching TV, muttering to Yan Mo's photo.
Zhao Qiaoyi doesn't care about Yan Mo's failed business venture and knows he wants to get everything right so she won't worry, but she'd rather share joys and sorrows with Yan Mo. Can't she even support Yan Mo, who eats sandwiches? Yan Mo listens silently to Zhao Qiaoyi's complaints, enveloped in happiness. Zhao Qiaoyi goes to complain to Teacher Gao, saying that growing up is too annoying.
Teacher Gao tells her that growing up isn't annoying; rather, someone shared the burden for them during their growth, and now as adults, they have to face these problems alone. Zhao Qiaoyi thinks it over and decides to tell Zhao Guanchao about Hao Wuyi's mother's illness. Zhao Guanchao rushes back to Nanchuan without a word after hearing about it.
When Hao Wuyi sees Zhao Guanchao standing in front of her, she, who had been pretending to be strong, finally breaks down and cries loudly. Zhao Guanchao returns home and asks Zhao Qiaoyi if marriage is particularly important for women. Zhao Qiaoyi says it depends on how Hao Wuyi views it. Zhao Qiaoyi doesn't understand why Zhao Guanchao is afraid to marry Hao Wuyi if he likes her.
Zhao Guanchao says that if he were to find someone to share his life with, it could only be Hao Wuyi, but his biggest childhood trauma was watching Zhao Lei abuse Zhao Suying and Zhao Qiaoyi. He fears he might have such genes in his bones and would hurt his children and Hao Wuyi. Zhao Qiaoyi reassures him that Zhao Guanchao is a completely different person from his father, and growing up with him was the happiest thing for her.
Episode 32 Recap
Zhao Guanchao learned that Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi had also broken up. Worried sick about Zhao Qiaoyi, he personally sought out Yan Mo to persuade him to reconcile with Zhao Qiaoyi. Eager to protect his sister, he warned Yan Mo, telling him not to fail Zhao Qiaoyi. Afterwards, Yan Mo proactively called Zhao Qiaoyi. Zhao Qiaoyi was doing chores at home. Hearing Yan Mo's call, she immediately rushed out of the house to meet Yan Mo.
Upon meeting, Yan Mo missed her dearly and immediately pulled Zhao Qiaoyi into his arms. Zhao Qiaoyi, however, playfully smeared flour on him, while Yan Mo paid no mind. The two affectionately embraced. Hao Wuyi stayed by her mother's bedside day and night. Zhao Guanchao also quietly accompanied Hao Wuyi. Hao Wuyi's mother suddenly proposed wanting to visit Hao Wuyi's school, feeling guilty for neglecting her during her studies due to being busy with work.
Hao Wuyi took her mother for a stroll on campus, happily recounting bits and pieces from her school days. The two had a heart-to-heart talk on campus. Hao Wuyi's mother sat on a wheelchair, her face pale. For the first time, they opened up to each other, expressing their guilt towards each other. Hao Wuyi's mother also did her best to comfort Hao Wuyi, and instructed her not to be sad because of her departure in the future.
She would just be accompanying her in a different way, continuing to watch over and protect her. The two resolved all barriers and hugged each other tightly. Hao Wuyi hated herself, lamenting the saying "the child wishes to care for the parents, but they are no longer there." She could only do her best to accompany her mother while she was alive, washing her feet, reading to her by the bed, until her mother passed away.
Hao Wuyi held a funeral for her mother. At the funeral, Zhou Wei also handed Hao Wuyi a notebook that Hao Wuyi's mother had always carried with her. It was filled with photos of Hao Wuyi from her childhood. Hao Wuyi cried uncontrollably upon seeing it, realizing that her mother had always quietly kept her love in her heart. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo continued to bother Professor Li about the health bracelet issue. Professor Li still ignored them.
Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi were also persistent and rented a house next door to Professor Li to stay there. To drive them away, Professor Li deliberately turned off their circuit breaker at night. Zhao Qiaoyi brought greeting gifts to the nearby neighbors, hoping to get closer to them to inquire about Professor Li.
Only then did she learn that Professor Li had been going door-to-door collecting signatures for a petition to protect the ecological tea garden, but the neighbors were unwilling to approach him because of his gruff and harsh manner. Zhao Guanchao and Hao Wuyi reconciled as before. Hao Wuyi also quickly pulled herself together according to her mother's dying wish, getting ready to go. She began proactively seeking out editors about her novel, but constantly met with rejection. Feeling down, Hao Wuyi found Zhao Guanchao to confide in him. Zhao Guanchao also did his best to comfort her and cheer her up.
Episode 33 Recap
Hao Wuyi repeatedly visited publishing houses and finally met an editor from one publisher. Although the novel she wrote, 'Super Senses', was approved by the editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief still asked Hao Wuyi to revert to her previous style, stating that using the new style rashly was too risky. However, Hao Wuyi insisted on staying true to her original intention, and the collaboration ultimately fell through.
Hao Wuyi walked out of the publishing house feeling dejected, but unexpectedly stumbled upon a new opportunity, coincidentally meeting someone who appreciated her talent. Although it was a small publishing house, it was willing to publish her new book. Zhao Qiaoyi obtained the neighbors' signatures for Professor Li's petition. Professor Li was very happy inside but didn't show it.
Afterward, Zhao Qiaoyi complained to Yan Mo that Professor Li was just like him – tough outside but soft inside – and expressed confidence that she could soften Professor Li. That night, Professor Li fell in the tea garden. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo enthusiastically helped him, carried him back home, and took meticulous care of him.
Although Professor Li still spoke coldly to them, he was eventually touched by the two of them and slowly accepted spending time with them. Zhao Qiaoyi proactively helped the villagers by taking on the task of repairing various equipment. Yan Mo couldn't refuse and was exhausted beyond words. To thank Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi for their enthusiastic help, the villagers invited them to dinner.
They personally cooked their best dishes and did their best to treat Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo well. During the meal, a group of elderly people complained to the two of them that they were all lonely elderly individuals. Zhao Qiaoyi did her best to comfort them. A warm, unintentional remark from Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly sparked Yan Mo's inspiration.
Yan Mo was originally full of confidence in restarting the health bracelet project, but suddenly received a call from Fei Dachuan learning that the company had a new board of directors and that no investors would fund them for the time being. Yan Mo immediately became discouraged, feeling isolated and unwilling to let anyone near him. Upon learning this, Professor Li offered kind words to enlighten Yan Mo, helping him resolve his inner struggles.
Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi decided to return to Beijing and bid farewell to Professor Li. However, Professor Li asked them to have dinner together before they left. During dinner, Professor Li proposed returning to Beijing with them, which greatly surprised the two of them. Yan Mo and Zhao Qiaoyi talked in the tea garden. Yan Mo asked Zhao Qiaoyi to name the software they were developing. Zhao Qiaoyi gave it a name full of affection.
Yan Mo was moved, and the two passionately kissed in the tea garden. Fei Dachuan found Cheng Ye, the brother of his competitor Cheng Youmei, and proposed a collaboration. However, Cheng Ye proposed playing a ball game with Fei Dachuan first. Fei Dachuan deliberately went easy, letting Cheng Ye win. Cheng Ye was as happy as a child after winning the game. Finally, the two resolved their differences and shook hands, making peace.
With Professor Li's help and the collaboration with Cheng Ye, the health bracelet was relaunched and became highly popular. Yan Mo also became incredibly busy. When traveling for business, he still worried about Zhao Qiaoyi. For his girlfriend's safety, he thoughtfully wrote notes reminding Zhao Qiaoyi to be careful and wrote a male name as the recipient for all parcels.
Episode 34 Recap
Zhao Guanchao and Zhao Qiaoyi were shopping in a store. The two started a hilarious bickering match over money matters, making the salesperson next to them unable to help but laugh. Zhao Guanchao, wanting to propose to Hao Wuyi, was carefully selecting a wedding ring. It was Zhao Qiaoyi's first time seeing Zhao Guanchao so serious and affectionate, which greatly surprised her. Cheng Youmei was far away abroad.
Fei Dachuan contacted her from time to time, but he was greatly troubled by her hot and cold attitude. Seeing that the path to winning his wife seemed endless, Fei Dachuan began seeking advice from various sources and tried his best to salvage the situation. Zhao Guanchao took Hao Wuyi back to the place where he first confessed his feelings to her. He confessed his feelings again, full of deep affection, and knelt down to propose to her.
This was a scene Hao Wuyi had dreamed of countless times. Instantly, memories of their journey together played out like a movie in her mind, deeply moving her. Zhao Guanchao finally captured Hao Wuyi's heart. After Zhao Guanchao proposed to Hao Wuyi, Hao Wuyi gleefully flaunted her wedding ring, while Zhao Qiaoyi watched from the side with extreme jealousy and envy. Hao Wuyi then suggested that Zhao Qiaoyi hint to Yan Mo.
When Zhao Qiaoyi video called Yan Mo, she frantically gave various hints, both overt and subtle, but Yan Mo was completely oblivious, making Zhao Qiaoyi utterly helpless. That evening, Yan Mo uncharacteristically sent Zhao Qiaoyi a bouquet of roses and took her to a Western restaurant for dinner. This led Zhao Qiaoyi to mistakenly believe that Yan Mo was going to propose. She became incredibly excited and immediately sent out WeChat messages secretly announcing it to everyone.
Upon learning this, Hao Wuyi, Zhao Guanchao, and Fei Dachuan immediately rushed to the restaurant, ready to lend their support at any moment. While eating, Zhao Qiaoyi nervously opened the gift Yan Mo gave her, but found it was just a bottle of essential oil, making her excitement in vain. This also made the three people hiding nearby unable to help but laugh when they saw it. After dinner, Zhao Qiaoyi was clearly displeased.
She returned home and went straight to bed, disappointed. At this moment, Yan Mo calmly mentioned that they would go get their marriage license tomorrow. Zhao Qiaoyi lay in bed for a while before realizing what he said. Yan Mo had finally proposed to her. Cheng Youmei suddenly returned to China. Fei Dachuan was incredibly excited and happily hugged her, spinning her around. In his haste, he suddenly proposed to her.
Cheng Youmei did not answer but ran away shyly, leaving Fei Dachuan confused. Cheng Youmei called out Hao Wuyi and Zhao Qiaoyi for a get-together. The three drank and sang in a KTV. Zhao Qiaoyi got drunk from happiness because she was getting married next week. Afterwards, Yan Mo and Zhao Guanchao came to the KTV, each picking up his girlfriend to go home. Finally, Cheng Youmei was left alone, feeling lonely.
Zhao Qiaoyi's whole family was busy and working hard for her wedding. While happy, her parents also began to feel emotional and reluctant to see their daughter leave them, and the two shed tears of emotion. On the night before the wedding, Zhao Qiaoyi suddenly became silent. Zhao Guanchao saw that she had something on her mind and talked with her.
It was then that Zhao Qiaoyi told him that she had told her biological father, Zhao Lei, about her marriage, and he gave her his blessings and apologized. That evening, Zhao Qiaoyi called Yan Mo. The two chatted and promised to spend the rest of their lives together.
Episode 35 (Ending) Recap
On Zhao Qiaoyi's wedding day, she finally put on her dreamed-of white wedding dress, looking stunning. Just then, Hao Wuyi also told Zhao Qiaoyi something that brought double happiness: Hao Wuyi was pregnant. After Zhao Guanchao found out, he protected Hao Wuyi like a national first-class protected animal. At the wedding, upon seeing Hao Wuyi glance at Zhou Zhao, he immediately became jealous, quickly flashing the ring towards Zhou Zhao to declare his ownership.
Fei Dachuan presided over Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo's wedding. At the wedding, the two made promises to spend their entire lives together and walk hand in hand through the rest of their lives. The two, like a prince and princess from a fairy tale, began a destined happy and beautiful ending. At Zhao Qiaoyi's wedding, Fei Dachuan saw Cheng Youmei, embraced her from behind in a dominant way, and confessed his feelings. Cheng Youmei was overjoyed.
A week after the wedding, Zhao Qiaoyi was extremely excited about their honeymoon trip, while Yan Mo was indifferent due to work matters and gave up the honeymoon because of company affairs. Zhao Qiaoyi was also considerate and sympathetic towards Yan Mo in every way and reluctantly agreed. Zhao Qiaoyi was extremely bored every day, so she tried various things to attract Yan Mo's attention, but Yan Mo saw through all of them.
Zhao Qiaoyi budgeted their monthly expenses at home. Since the budget was exceeded this month, she suggested to Yan Mo that they should be frugal. Zhao Qiaoyi was about to take a shower, but Yan Mo, using her suggestion of saving as an excuse, shamelessly requested to shower together. Six months after Zhao Qiaoyi's marriage, Yan Mo finally found time to make up for their honeymoon with Zhao Qiaoyi.
Yan Mo took Zhao Qiaoyi back to Cambridge University, where he studied, to relive his life during his time in England and to make up for their regrets. The two had a warm and sweet trip. Zhao Qiaoyi revealed to Yan Mo that she had been to England before.
It was then that the two realized that they were very close back then but unexpectedly missed each other, and they were also fortunate that the happiness that was meant for them had never been missed. Zhao Qiaoyi unexpectedly met a classmate who didn't know Zhao Qiaoyi was married, so she took it upon herself to take Zhao Qiaoyi to meet one of her high school admirers. The meeting was interrupted by Yan Mo's appearance.
It was then that Zhao Qiaoyi learned that she actually had an admirer in high school, and he had been intercepted by Yan Mo early on. Two years after Zhao Qiaoyi's marriage, Zhao Qiaoyi's clumsy nature still complemented Yan Mo's calm and composed personality. The two supported and stayed with each other sweetly after marriage. Zhao Qiaoyi and Yan Mo talked about the people they liked during their student days.
It was unspoken between the two; they met through a pure and beautiful campus romance and eventually fell in love in this complex society, carrying this simple and beautiful love forward forever.
