Cheng Yao treated Qian Heng to a meal, and Qian Heng chose an upscale restaurant. The meal cost 2,000 yuan, which made Cheng Yao feel quite distressed. That night, after returning to the apartment, Qian Heng transferred the money to Cheng Yao, explaining that he never let women pay for him. Cheng Yao tried to decline out of politeness, but Qian Heng was firm, so she accepted the transfer.

Cheng Yao went shopping at the supermarket, where there was a promotion—buy one get one free on ice cream. She bought two and intentionally offered one to Qian Heng as a thank-you. Qian Heng usually didn’t eat ice cream, but seeing Cheng Yao’s kind gesture, he took a few bites and found it surprisingly tasty. He suggested that Cheng Yao buy more to stock in the freezer and said he would cover all the cost.

While walking her dog, Cheng Yao ran into a man whose dog got tangled up with hers. The man immediately came over and, claiming that his dog had been harassed, demanded 20,000 yuan in compensation. Cheng Yao had reason on her side but couldn’t argue her way out. Suddenly, Qian Heng stepped in front of her and directly transferred 3,000 yuan to the man.

As the man happily turned to leave, Qian Heng used various legal clauses to pressure him into returning the money. Cheng Yao chatted with her best friend Li Mengting and shared everything that had happened between her and Qian Heng. Li Mengting analyzed that Qian Heng must like Cheng Yao—why else would he keep stepping in to save her? Cheng Yao felt her face flush and couldn’t express her emotions.

She recalled a few days earlier when she and Qian Heng were dining together and discovered they both liked the same game soundtrack on vinyl. Qian Heng generously offered to give her a copy. Cheng Yao said she didn’t have a record player, so there was no point. But Qian Heng believed that as long as she liked it, the gift had meaning even if she couldn’t use it.

When shopping at the supermarket, Qian Heng picked out snacks he liked but didn’t eat them after returning to the apartment—instead, he gave them all to her. What did all this mean? Lying in bed tossing and turning, Cheng Yao couldn’t figure out what Qian Heng was thinking. For now, she told herself not to overthink it. She carefully prepared the rooftop, set up a foot bath and fruit for Qian Heng, and brought up some light-hearted topics.

In that relaxing setting, Qian Heng dozed off in his chair. Watching him sleep so peacefully, Cheng Yao felt a sense of accomplishment. Dong Shan’s mistress, Chen Qingmei, came to Junheng Law Firm looking for Qian Heng. She wanted to sue Jiang Wenxiu for secretly cremating Dong Shan’s body and to fight for inheritance rights for her soon-to-be-born son—a claim worth 200 million yuan.

Qian Heng agreed to take the case, but Cheng Yao considered Chen Qingmei a morally tainted third party and constantly rebutted with her own personal views. Qian Heng interrupted Cheng Yao and assigned Bao Rui to handle the case, with Cheng Yao as assistant. Back at the office, Qian Heng was furious at Cheng Yao for her lack of professionalism. Cheng Yao openly declared she was giving up involvement in Chen Qingmei’s case.

Qian Heng was disappointed and accidentally blurted out that he never should have agreed to let her join the firm in the first place. It struck Cheng Yao like a bolt from the blue—only then did she realize that she hadn’t entered Junheng Law Firm based on her true capabilities. Immediately after, Qian Heng threw a file of an important client on the desk. It was originally Cheng Yao’s responsibility to organize it.

Seeing Cheng Yao’s low spirits and Qian Heng still angry, Yu Fei stepped in and took the blame for her. That night, Cheng Yao didn’t return to the apartment, and she didn’t show up at work the next day either. When Wu Jun found out, he told Cheng Xi, who then found Cheng Yao and comforted her. She told her not to let her personal matters affect her career.

The more things didn’t go her way, the more she should push herself. She reminded Cheng Yao to cherish her opportunity at Junheng and work on improving herself. After calming down, Cheng Yao returned to work and admitted to acting on emotion. Wu Jun was very happy and went straight to tell Cheng Xi. Qian Heng agreed to let Cheng Yao resume work on Chen Qingmei’s case.
