She and Her Perfect Husband Episode 10 Recap
> She and Her Perfect Husband Recap
Li Dai also came to the gathering and took Qin Shi’s tea as soon as she arrived, but Qin Shi didn’t take it to heart. Partner Lao Ma inquired about Yang Hua’s occupation and company, but Qin Shi found an excuse to avoid the question. Li Dai subtly probed into Yang Hua’s work abroad, but Qin Shi didn’t give a direct answer. From Li Dai’s words, Qin Shi learned that she was recommended by Mr.
Hua and also came to vie for a partner position. Dinner began, and Jin Cheng mentioned that the eleventh floor of the law firm is the core layer of the company, with a total of seven lawyers. This time, they were selecting one lawyer from the Family and Criminal departments to join the eleventh floor. He hoped that everyone who joins the eleventh floor could become lifelong partners of Cheng & Hui.
During dinner, Yang Hua encouraged Qin Shi to chat more with the partners, but Qin Shi lamented about having no topics, which Li Dai overheard and used as an opportunity to mock her. Yang Hua defended Qin Shi, saying she was different from Li Dai, which left Li Dai very frustrated. Qin Shi tried to join the partners’ discussion, but they were all talking about cigarettes, alcohol, and tea — topics a female lawyer like her couldn’t get into.
On the other hand, Yang Hua, who was among the family members, couldn’t blend into the ladies’ circle either. Eventually, they were both asked how, as a female lawyer, Qin Shi viewed the pressures of the industry. Qin Shi replied that she could handle easy things without effort, but struggled with difficult ones. Meanwhile, Yang Hua said that for Qin Shi, work was a kind of enjoyment and when working, she was at her most charming.
One partner believed that professional women are fundamentally unreasonable, and that women should stay home and raise children. Qin Shi disagreed and used a childhood watermelon-sharing story with her brother to explain that sincerity can be seen through exchange — seeing if the other person is equally happy. She asked the partners whether balancing family and work was harder than building a career.
Forcing professional women to return to the household was, in her view, just a disguised form of promotion with a pay cut. Qin Shi also believed that whether to work or not is entirely a personal choice, unrelated to gender. She questioned each partner, stating that choosing between career and family is not something only women face — men deal with it too. The partners accused her of having a bias against men.
Yang Hua stepped in to smooth things over, explaining that Qin Shi was just too passionate about her work. In today’s society, men do have more advantages and are encouraged to focus on their careers, but it’s not an absolute rule. He believed Qin Shi was an outstanding lawyer and if he had to choose between family and career, he’d choose family. His remarks left the partners speechless and greatly impressed Qin Shi.
Li Dai deliberately called to expose Yang Hua for hiding his married status while going on blind dates. Yang Hua remembered that Li Dai was once his blind date. The two went off alone to talk. Li Dai questioned Yang Hua about going on blind dates while being married, but he didn’t explain much. At that moment, Qin Shi and Tang Yihui showed up.
Li Dai outright said that when Yang Hua appeared at Tang Yihui’s 20th wedding anniversary, it was for their blind date, not to surprise Qin Shi. In that situation, Qin Shi quickly asked whether Yang Hua’s actions that day were his idea or if his mother deliberately embarrassed her. Yang Hua admitted it was his mother’s doing. However, Li Dai still suspected they had faked their marriage and were never actually married.
To patch the lie, Yang Hua claimed he had been unemployed for a year and didn’t want Qin Shi to look down on him, so he kept it a secret. Jin Cheng saw the news that Lowe International Fund never established any personal foundation in China, and all domestic projects had nothing to do with Lowe International. Meanwhile, President Lan was packing to go abroad, but Tao Junhui intercepted her midway with a team.
He said that President Jiang of Yunya Group asked him to investigate Lowe Yulan and found many issues since last year. He now had reason to suspect Lowe Yulan of deceiving investors and forging business data. Lowe Yulan had already been sued by Lowe International, and President Lan was barred from leaving the country. The person in charge, Pang Dingfang, was under judicial investigation.
Cheng & Hui Law Firm refused to take on any cases related to Lowe Yulan, mainly to protect its reputation. Whether a case is winnable isn’t up to the lawyers — they can only help clients recover losses and avoid risks. From Jin Cheng’s perspective, although they could win the case, Lowe Yulan couldn’t repay the debts, so lawyers couldn’t help clients recover their money.
Qin Shi always felt Cheng & Hui had many flaws but was still a breath of fresh air in the industry. Yang Hua believed Jin Cheng’s refusal wasn’t out of personal relationships, while on the other side, Li Dai speculated with her team that Jin Cheng was just waiting for a better time to take on the case. Because of the last partner gathering, things between Qin Shi and Yang Hua became more complicated.
To smoothly move into the eleventh floor, Qin Shi hoped Yang Hua could temporarily act as a perfect househusband. But their previous lie included having a 2. 5-year-old son, so they had to invent some scenarios accordingly.
