My Little Happiness Episode 16 Recap
> My Little Happiness Recap
Wen Shaoqing found out that Cong Rong had already returned home and that it was Shangguan Yi who had driven her back. He rushed home and told Cong Rong not to trouble her superior to drive her in the future. Cong Rong was feeling down, thinking she wasn't familiar enough with the work and was causing trouble for her colleagues. Wen Shaoqing took her for a walk by the river to cheer her up.
He comforted her emotionally and even teased her with "mouth-to-mouth resuscitation," then forcefully kissed her by the river. After returning home, Cong Rong reorganized the case evidence based on Shangguan Yi’s instructions. Shangguan, lying on his bed, recalled working with Cong Rong earlier that evening. It was the first time someone had snatched documents from him, and it stirred feelings in him. Zhou Chengcheng, following the address Wen Shaoqing had given her, arrived at Wen Rang’s house.
Seeing Wen’s mother tending flowers in the yard, she went in to introduce herself and brought many gifts. Wen’s mother found Zhou Chengcheng quite agreeable and remembered seeing her in the bookstore. Zhou Chengcheng was very eloquent. In order to win over Wen Rang, she first tried to win over his mother, saying she could help with anything. Wen’s mother suggested going grocery shopping.
At the market, Zhou Chengcheng was very good at picking vegetables and budgeting, which made a great impression on her. While organizing his book sales list, Wen Rang noticed that someone with the initials "wj" frequently bought books. He contacted the bookseller and received a letter. Upon opening it, he found an address and an invitation to meet on New Year's Eve on a rooftop. He guessed the letter might be from his ex-girlfriend.
Wen’s mother, seeing Zhou Chengcheng's interest in Wen Rang, warned her that Wen Rang was difficult to deal with and hoped she wouldn't mind too much. Zhou Chengcheng made her feelings obvious and asked Wen’s mother to help her win him over quickly. Wen’s mother immediately called Wen Shaoqing, asking him to support her and acknowledged that Zhou Chengcheng was a good girl.
Wen Shaoqing relayed everything to Wen Rang and, as a friend, advised him to be clear with Zhou Chengcheng—if he liked her, accept her; if not, be honest and don't waste her time. Following Wen’s mother's instructions, Zhou Chengcheng prepared many delicious dishes and brought them to the bookstore. However, Wen Rang remained cold and told her he no longer wanted to fall in love or consider any future relationships, and kicked her out of the bookstore.
Zhou Chengcheng was heartbroken. Cong Rong's foot was hurting, and Wen Shaoqing directly lifted her in a princess carry, making her feel incredibly happy. As they walked sweetly together, they spotted Zhou Chengcheng sitting downstairs with red, swollen eyes. Zhou Chengcheng said she had just experienced heartbreak and couldn’t even control her eating. Spurred on by Cong Rong and Wen Shaoqing's affection, she decided to confess to Wen Rang again.
She couldn't give up such a great guy and planned to throw a New Year’s Eve party to get closer to him. With no better ideas, she clung to Cong Rong. Seeing this, Wen Shaoqing quickly called Wen Rang, urging him to attend a New Year’s Eve gathering with him; otherwise, he’d have to go home and eat with their father. On New Year’s Eve, Wen Shaoqing drove Cong Rong to work.
She asked if he had ever had anyone by his side before. Wen Shaoqing teasingly said yes, but he was just trying to make her jealous. While driving, they were distracted and nearly hit a girl. She seemed upset, as if something bad had happened. Cong Rong gave her a business card, offering to help if needed, but the girl quickly left, saying she couldn’t afford legal fees.
Cong Rong told Wen Shaoqing she wanted to go cycling with him that night after work. Cong Rong rushed to finish her work so she could leave early and spend New Year’s Eve with Wen Shaoqing. Just then, she got a call from the girl asking to meet. Meanwhile, Wen Shaoqing borrowed Zhong Zhen’s new bike but didn’t know how to ride or brake and crashed it.
Although Zhong Zhen was upset, Wen Shaoqing immediately transferred him 3,000 yuan via WeChat, which made Zhong Zhen very happy. Cong Rong told Shangguan Yi about the girl’s case. The girl had fallen into a predatory loan trap. Shangguan said the firm wouldn’t take the case as it wasn’t worth the effort, so Cong Rong had to research similar online lending cases by herself.
