Ode to Joy Episode 12 Recap
> Ode to Joy Recap
Fan Shengmei accompanied Wang Baichuan to the supermarket to buy daily necessities. Wang Baichuan, who had always liked Fan Shengmei, continuously expressed his affection for her. The vain Fan Shengmei was very happy to hear this. To thank Fan Shengmei for her help, Wang Baichuan gave her an expensive designer bag. After some polite refusals, Fan Shengmei accepted it.
After returning home, Fan Shengmei actually searched for Wang Baichuan's name on a search engine, because she believed that Wang Baichuan, who had such an extraordinary way of spending, must have achieved great success. However, to her surprise, no relevant information about Wang Baichuan appeared. At this moment, Qiu Yingying, who had felt wronged at home during the day, also came to Fan Shengmei's room.
It turned out that the slow-witted Qiu Yingying had finally noticed everyone's unusual behavior towards her, so she sincerely asked Fan Shengmei for an explanation. Fan Shengmei candidly told her the reason and advised her not to think about problems only from her own perspective. Qiu Yingying finally understood that her selfishness had pushed everyone away, so she decided to correct her mistake and apologize to everyone.
Guan Juer, who worked overtime until late at night, left work with her colleagues. Her colleagues were all picked up by their boyfriends, leaving Guan Juer to walk alone on the street. Feeling very lonely, she called her mother. Guan's mother was heartbroken to learn that she had just finished overtime and urged her to take a taxi home. As soon as she hung up the phone, Guan's mother started nagging Guan's father.
She believed it was because Guan's father insisted on their daughter going to Shanghai to work hard that their daughter was suffering so much. Guan's father patiently tried to persuade her, believing that it would always be beneficial for their pampered daughter to experience some hardships. But besides that, Guan's mother was also very worried about her daughter's marriage, and she decided to start arranging things for her daughter.
As soon as Guan Juer, who had finished overtime, entered the door, Yingying rushed up to apologize to her, and the two young girls reconciled. The next morning, Qiu Yingying waited at the door of 2201. As soon as Andy came out, she apologized to her. She frankly said that she still didn't think there was anything wrong with those self-help books, but Fan Shengmei said she was wrong, so she was wrong.
Andy accepted her apology, but found Qiu Yingying's act of apologizing without understanding the situation quite amusing. Qiu Yingying decided to start anew, so she went to the job market to look for work. Before leaving, she suddenly became insecure, but Fan Shengmei tried her best to encourage her. Qu Xiaoxiao heard the commotion outside and opened her door. She uncharacteristically invited Fan Shengmei to have a meal together, which greatly surprised Fan Shengmei.
Only later did she learn that Qu Xiaoxiao had injured her foot. The two then went downstairs together. At the community entrance, Fan Shengmei saw Wang Baichuan waiting there. Because of the Director Bai incident, Fan Shengmei was very wary of Qu Xiaoxiao, so she told her to go to the restaurant first. Wang Baichuan told her that he had originally wanted to see her, but suddenly received a call from Director Lang.
Fan Shengmei told him to prioritize his work. Qu Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to take pictures of Wang Baichuan's car and sent them to her friends, asking them to help investigate. Qu Xiaoxiao's friends soon found information about Wang Baichuan's car, and Fan Shengmei thus learned the fact that Wang Baichuan's BMW was rented. After Fan Shengmei learned that Wang Baichuan's car was rented, she kept sighing.
Qu Xiaoxiao encouraged her not to care about these external material conditions and to bravely continue dating Wang Baichuan, but Fan Shengmei believed that, at thirty years old, she no longer had the capital to just play around. After picking up Director Lang, Wang Baichuan called Fan Shengmei and invited her to have lunch together. Fan Shengmei, who believed that having a dead horse to ride was better than an empty relationship period, couldn't resist Wang Baichuan's enthusiastic invitation and agreed to the date.
