Ode to Joy Episode 25 Recap
> Ode to Joy Recap
Qu Xiaoxiao then called Andy downstairs and explained to Guan Juer and Andy why she had been targeting Fan Shengmei. In Qu Xiaoxiao's opinion, Fan Shengmei was a complete gold digger. She had always been with Wang Baichuan with the mindset of "riding a donkey to find a horse" (i. e. , looking for a better option while already having one).
She also seized on Wang Baichuan's characteristic of needing to save face in front of clients, dragging him to the mall to "bleed him dry," making Wang Baichuan buy her an Hermès scarf. This time, she had originally intended to kindly warn Fan Shengmei that her brother was unreliable, but Fan Shengmei didn't appreciate it at all. Andy suggested not interfering in other people's private lives. She thought Fan Shengmei was a bit vain but not bad at heart.
She asked Qu Xiaoxiao to cease fire for a month, and Qu Xiaoxiao agreed to her request. As soon as Guan Juer returned to 2202, Qiu Yingying called her over for dinner. Fan Shengmei also came out of her room, and the three of them ate, chatting and laughing. Fan Shengmei suddenly received a call from her classmate, Old Hu.
It turned out that Fan Shengmei had once asked Old Hu to help her brother find a security guard job, but her brother got into a fight with the security captain in the lobby in front of VIPs. The manager was furious and fired her brother. Fan Shengmei's expression changed upon hearing this, and she kept apologizing to Old Hu. Guan Juer took Fan Shengmei to attend Senior Brother Lin's invitation to an chamber music concert.
Before the concert started, Senior Brother Lin went to buy drinks. Fan Shengmei wandered around, and Guan Juer went to browse a music store alone. As a long-time lover of classical music, she and Zhao Qiping coincidentally picked up the same CD. Zhao Qiping's extraordinary conversation and outstanding demeanor made Guan Juer's eyes light up. She fell in love with Zhao Qiping at first sight.
Dr. Zhao, with great gentlemanly manners, gave the only CD in the store to Guan Juer. Fan Shengmei sat in the concert hall, listening to the music with tears streaming down her face. This scene was coincidentally seen by Zhao Qiping, who was sitting in the back. He took a picture and sent it to Qu Xiaoxiao. As soon as Qu Xiaoxiao saw it, she burst into unrestrained laughter. Her mother, sitting next to her, curiously asked who sent it.
Qu Xiaoxiao said it was Dr. Zhao, and that she planned to develop him into her boyfriend. Qu Xiaoxiao's parents were very satisfied when they heard that the person was a doctor with a Ph. D. Guan Juer, who had originally planned to spend time with Senior Brother Lin after her internship, changed her mind after meeting Zhao Qiping because she realized she had fallen for Zhao Qiping.
After the concert, Fan Shengmei went to the restroom to touch up her makeup and saw a missed call on her phone, so she called her mother back. Just as she expected, her mother immediately brought up her brother's matter. Fan Shengmei stated that over the years, she had helped her brother deal with countless troubles, and she didn't have that much money to help him.
The next day at work, Guan Juer told Andy that she had fallen for a stranger she had never properly met. Andy encouraged her to bravely pursue him. When getting out of the car, Guan Juer told Andy that Fan Shengmei's recent behavior was a bit abnormal. Andy promised to talk to her if she had time. Afterwards, Andy called Wei Wei and asked him to help her investigate Qu Lianjie's background.
As soon as Andy hung up the phone, she saw her assistant come in holding a large bouquet of roses. The assistant directly stated that it was from Bao Yifan and also told her that Bao Yifan had invited her to dinner. Andy found it difficult to refuse, so she accepted the invitation.
