After showing Qing Ye to the shared bathroom, Xing Wu returned to his room, only for his quiet moment to be shattered by a piercing shriek. He rushed back to find her terrified by what she claimed were massive insects. Xing Wu checked the area and found nothing but a harmless bug, dryly teasing that her loud screaming had probably scared off all its companions.
Though highly irritated by her dramatic city-girl reaction, he remembered his mother's reminder that this cousin was their financial savior. Having grown up in a tight-knit family plagued by constant debts, he resolved to swallow his pride and tolerate her. Back in their sweltering room, Qing Ye complained about the intense heat, questioning why there was no air conditioning. Xing Wu dismissed her complaints, claiming the sea breeze and a fan were perfectly adequate.
Qing Ye proposed that they split the cost of a used unit so he could keep using it after she left, but Xing Wu sarcastically countered that if she was so wealthy, she should buy one for every house in Zhazha Pavilion. When bedtime arrived, she was appalled to find him preparing to sleep in the same room. Asserting that they were not suited to share a space, she insisted he sleep elsewhere, and Xing Wu readily agreed.
Alone in the room, Qing Ye messaged a friend on her phone, comparing her current situation to a disastrous survival game and expressing her desperate desire to return to Beijing. Her friend advised her to endure the month before heading abroad and reminded her to record her course application video. The next morning, Qing Ye's sleep was cut short by the bustling noises of the street market below, where vendors loudly peddled seafood and tofu.
Exhausted and irritated, she stormed onto the balcony and yelled down, threatening to call the police. The locals barely paid her any mind, with a tofu vendor simply explaining to her customers that the girl was a newcomer before continuing to shout her wares. Having slept terribly, Qing Ye woke up with swollen eyes and dark circles. As she hurried downstairs, she lost her footing and tumbled down the steps.
Xing Wu and his mother, Li Lanfang, rushed out to find her crying in pain at the bottom of the stairs. Li Lanfang noticed her swollen face and suggested she had been bitten by mosquitoes. Terrified that she was going blind, Qing Ye panicked, but Xing Wu told her to stop being dramatic. When he insisted on taking her to the clinic, she stubbornly refused to leave in her pajamas and demanded sunglasses to hide her face.
Losing his patience, Xing Wu simply swept her up in a princess carry and walked out. On the way, she begged him to put her down, but he jokingly told her to just cover her face so no one would recognize her. At the local clinic, Dr. Zhuang yawned and quickly diagnosed her right eye as being swollen from sleeping on it and her left eye as a mosquito bite.
Used to the thorough testing of big-city hospitals, Qing Ye was skeptical of his one-second diagnosis, demanding blood tests and X-rays. She also insisted he check her sprained leg, though she doubted his credentials when Xing Wu joked that the doctor had once saved two poisoned wolfhounds. Dr. Zhuang showed his license and confirmed her leg was just a minor surface scrape, prescribing a change of dressing every twelve hours.
He then gave Xing Wu his grandmother's monthly medicine before pulling him aside, asking about the dramatic girl. Xing Wu sighed and described her as a real handful. Xing Wu sat her down to apply Dr. Zhuang's foul-smelling secret ointment, which Qing Ye eyed with suspicion. When she asked about paying, she was surprised to learn that locals kept a monthly tab. Wanting to settle the debt, she asked to add him on WeChat.
Xing Wu teased that if she wanted to pay for his carrying services, it would cost her one yuan per step. Hearing this, Qing Ye complained about the steep price, but when Xing Wu offered a free ride back on his back, she quickly accepted. On their way home, she urged him to hurry to avoid being seen in her pajamas, unaware that local onlookers were already commenting on how quickly she seemed to be adapting to their lifestyle.
Once home, Li Lanfang fussed over her with pork trotter soup. Xing Wu jokingly told his mother that her injuries were so severe she might face amputation, earning a quick scolding once she realized he was teasing. Later, Xing Wu left for his job at Shunyi Repairs, where his partner, Canine, urged him to join the business permanently. Xing Wu declined, preferring to keep working odd jobs.
Needing to make extra money, he asked Canine to send any repair work his way. Back at the house, Qing Ye paid a visit to Xing Wu's sweet-tempered grandmother. After helping her pick up a fallen cup, Qing Ye chatted with her warmly and apologized for the disruption of her stay. She recalled overhearing Xing Wu promise his grandmother steamed egg with sea urchin once they had money. Eager to help, Qing Ye walked over to Yitong Restaurant.
Although the owner, Auntie Shanxi, was initially too busy to accommodate her highly specific dietary demands, she quickly changed her tune when Qing Ye sent her a one-thousand-yuan advance payment via Alipay. Qing Ye laid out a strict meal plan of four balanced dishes and a soup, insisting on easy-to-swallow foods and a daily steamed egg with sea urchin, packaged in portions large enough for two people.
Xing Wu bumped into her at the restaurant while buying mackerel dumplings for his grandmother, surprised to see her walking so soon. Later that day, Xing Wu repaired a hole in the shared bathroom door and installed a new lock. This sparked a loud argument downstairs with Li Lanfang, who complained about always footing the bill for neighbors who never showed any gratitude. The shouting disrupted Qing Ye, who was trying to record her video introduction for her university application.
Believing they were loudly hinting for money, she went down, transferred five hundred yuan to Li Lanfang via Alipay, and told them to stop fussing over a simple lock. Xing Wu was deeply offended by her condescending attitude. He transferred the money back to her, explaining that his mother was upset about fairness, not the money itself.
Qing Ye retorted that she just wanted to buy some peace and quiet, adding that they only provided these services because she paid them. Furious, Xing Wu pulled out their signed rental agreement and declared he never acknowledged it.
When Qing Ye threatened to withhold her final payment if she did not get a comfortable environment, Xing Wu snapped, telling her to pack her bags and go to a hotel if she thought her money allowed her to do whatever she wanted. Hurt and angry, Qing Ye packed her suitcase and hired Mr. Zhu, a local tricycle driver, to take her to the best place in town.
She checked into the luxury ocean-view suite at the Zhazha Haoting Hotel for five hundred and eighty-eight yuan a night, relieved to finally have air conditioning and be away from Xing Wu. However, her peace was short-lived when the hotel's Wi-Fi suddenly went down, stalling her studies. Back at the house, Liu Nian delivered the double-portion meal from Yitong to Xing Wu.
He revealed that Qing Ye had secretly hired him to clean and dust Grandma's room and buy green plants to help with her illness. Realizing he had misjudged her kind intentions, Xing Wu felt a pang of guilt. Worried about her safety, he called Mr. Zhu to confirm where he had dropped her off.
Upon learning she was at the Zhazha Haoting Hotel, Xing Wu quickly called the owner, Hao, asking him to keep an eye on her and let him know if she needed anything.
