She and Her Perfect Husband Episode 22 Recap
> She and Her Perfect Husband Recap
Mr. Ding came to the law firm this time for his daughter Fangfang. Although she has had a good job in recent years, her judgment in men has been poor. Therefore, he wants her to sign a prenuptial agreement before marriage, so he can rest assured as a father. The case is jointly handled by Tao Junhui and Qin Shi, which makes Wu Fei very upset upon hearing it. Tao Junhui explains that Mr.
Ding’s previous three divorce cases were all handled by Qin Shi, and since Qin Shi was the former head of the family law department, she has more experience with such cases. Though Wu Fei eventually agrees to let Qin Shi be the co-counsel, she insists on being involved in the case as well.
Qin Shi initially plans to talk to Ding Fangfang alone about the prenuptial agreement, but Wu Fei is dissatisfied with the arrangement and intends to go with Tao Junhui instead, leaving Qin Shi to wait for further work assignments. Qin Shi promptly calls Ding Fangfang to ask about her marriage, and they agree to meet for coffee. Yang Hua goes out to look for a job.
Although his education and experience meet the requirements, the recruiter refuses to hire him upon learning that he doesn't like social interaction. This frustrates Cai Liang, who complains that Yang Hua could at least pretend to be a sociable white-collar professional for the sake of the job. Yang Hua doesn't want to trouble his friend any further, but Cai Liang also doesn’t want to see his friend struggle.
He decides to refer Yang Hua to work at his own bank, but advises him to control his temper and avoid offending clients. Tao Junhui and Wu Fei ask Qi Dagang to investigate Ding Fangfang’s fiancé, Cao Yiren. They find out that Fangfang met Cao Yiren while studying in Canada. Cao Yiren is ten years older than her, has been divorced, and has a daughter. Meanwhile, Qin Shi also tries to learn about Cao Yiren from Fangfang.
Although Cao gave most of his assets to his ex-wife after their divorce, he started his own business after returning to China and raised over 100 million yuan in under a year. Moreover, Fangfang’s current home furnishing company was built thanks to Cao Yiren’s connections. Ding Fangfang strongly disagrees with her father’s views on marriage, but Cao Yiren is unlike any man she has ever met—he always supports and cares for her, and his career doesn't require her involvement.
Qin Shi advises that if she trusts in their love and Cao Yiren’s character, she can use that as a basis to negotiate with her father. Since both Cao and Mr. Ding are businessmen, they could become allies if they find common ground—and that common ground is Ding Fangfang. Yang Hua gets a lot of attention while eating at work.
When he asks Cai Liang about it, he learns that Cai Liang had concealed Yang Hua’s marital status when onboarding him, thinking it would help him blend in better and make his sales work easier. However, Yang Hua believes the workplace isn’t meant for making friends, so he publicly announces that he is married. Qin Shi invites Yang Hua to lunch and casually asks how to analyze true love from an economics perspective.
This "true love" refers to purely emotional love, without economic factors. Yang Hua analyzes that every decision in reality involves a degree of foresight—even if someone doesn’t care about a lover’s current material conditions, they will still hope that the person has a promising future. Such considerations are instinctive for survival, and love that defies instinct does not exist.
Wu Fei reviews Cao Yiren’s background and believes he is outstanding, thinking that Fangfang is the one "marrying up" and concludes they are truly in love. But Qin Shi argues that as lawyers, they cannot determine what true love is, and that prenuptial agreements protect assets, not emotions. Their job is simply to get Cao Yiren to sign the agreement. Since they’ve taken on this case, Qin Shi insists they must work hard on it.
Wu Fei doesn’t want Qin Shi involved, but Qin Shi’s few comments irritate Wu Fei so much that she storms out, leaving Tao Junhui helpless between the two women. Seeing Qi Dagang leaving Tao Junhui’s office, Qin Shi pulls him aside and proposes a collaboration after learning he offers information consulting services. Yang Hua avoids a female colleague’s advances at the office, but is soon falsely accused of pushing her over.
Fortunately, Cai Liang clears Yang Hua’s name using surveillance footage but also urges Yang Hua to treat colleagues more kindly. Yang Hua, however, turns around and reminds Cai Liang to always remember that he is married. Yang Hua fails to fit in at work—he refuses requests from colleagues, avoids social interactions, and even declines to work overtime. This frustrates Cai Liang.
