Unforgettable Love Recap

Episode 1 Recap

In a grand, lavish room, a handsome and mature man was helping a young boy pick out clothes. This man was none other than He Qiaoyan, CEO of Heshi Group, and the boy was his son. At the same time, Mr. He was attending a press conference where a reporter boldly asked if the boy was his illegitimate child. Mr. He firmly responded that his son had a name and identity, making the term “illegitimate” completely baseless.

In a restaurant, a woman shouted that 300,000 wasn't acceptable—she demanded 500,000. It turned out her ex-boyfriend Zhou Ziyang had abandoned her and everything Zhou now had originated from her. She was Qin Yiyue. She confronted her ex and the mistress who had interfered in her relationship without fear. Meanwhile, Mr. He was in a meeting in his office when his son Xiaobao caused a scene due to Mr. He’s tardiness, even smashing a computer.

Just as the secretary was about to call, Mr. He returned. But Xiaobao wouldn’t listen to any explanations. Mr. He didn’t indulge him either. When he called for a doctor, he was told the doctor had already quit. This was no surprise—over ten doctors had been driven away by Xiaobao. The secretary hurried Mr. He to leave, as there were many matters to attend to, leaving him no choice but to bring the young Mr. He along.

Qin Yiyue was eating hot pot with her best friend, drinking heavily, clearly using alcohol to drown her sorrows. Meanwhile, Mr. He was inspecting samples and tests at the company. Her friend informed her that Zhou Ziyang had somehow won Heshi Group’s Outstanding Youth Award. Feeling indignant, Qin Yiyue asked her friend to go home first, saying she had things to handle in the provincial capital. Back at the office, Mr. He tested the live streaming function and found it interesting. After asking the staff to leave so he could analyze platform data and traffic, Xiaobao took the opportunity to sneak out. Mr. He realized this only after a while. Xiaobao ran to the hotel lobby and stuck a heart sticker on a sign bearing his father’s name, but was stopped by staff. In a panic, he tried to flee. Mr. He was searching for him with his team.

As Xiaobao ran, he bumped into many signs. Just then, Qin Yiyue appeared and rescued him. She communicated cleverly with Xiaobao and even gave him a toy she liked. Mr. He's secretary arrived and took Xiaobao away. Mr. He was searching on the third floor when Qin Yiyue mistook him for her scumbag ex-boyfriend and angrily lashed out, both physically and verbally. Her hair got caught on Mr. He’s tie, and she cut it off with scissors before apologizing and leaving. On her way out, she bumped into her ex and his new girlfriend but walked away without a glance. During the award ceremony, Mr. He recognized the imposter Qin Yiyue had mentioned and directly crossed out his name, announcing "none" before leaving the stage.

Back home, he repaired his tie and saw that Qin Yiyue was on the list of new doctors for Xiaobao—but he immediately tossed her resume into the trash. Early the next morning, Mr. He got to work. Just then, Wen Gu, heir of the Wen family, came to question him about the previous night’s live stream. Mr. He was unaware that the incident with Qin Yiyue had been filmed from another angle, leading to a misunderstanding that the two were involved. Mr. He quickly minimized the damage and kicked Wen Gu out. Yang Ruowei woke Qin Yiyue up and, upon seeing the misunderstanding online, rushed to the hospital. Xiaobao was there, but ignored the other doctors. Only Qin Yiyue’s words had an effect on him.

Episode 2 Recap

As Mr. He arrived, Qin Yiyue was playing happily with Xiaobao. Mr. He believed that what happened last night was Qin Yiyue’s deliberate ploy. She had lost nothing, while his company had suffered losses. He told Xiaobao the place was full of “weird aunties,” but Xiaobao said he liked Dr. Qin, wanted to be friends with her, and even wanted her to come home. Mr. He investigated Dr. Qin. Wen Gu couldn’t understand why Xiaobao liked her either. Mr. He even created a chart to analyze her using business logic and admitted she was rather unique.

Wen Gu remarked that Xiaobao was clever, just like his father, implying Xiaobao might not be Mr. He's biological son. The next day, Mr. He went to the hospital, only to be rejected by Dr. Qin. He then sent her an email personally, written stiffly, which Wen Gu tried to revise—but accidentally sent. Dr. Qin found him narcissistic. Mr. He called her directly, but she mistook it for a scam call. The following day, Mr. He brought cash to see her but was rejected again. He went back to discuss what Dr. Qin liked with Wen Gu, who confidently said to leave it to him. Wen Gu gave her a bunch of parroting dolls, which she refused. Mr. He later waited to intercept Dr. Qin, following Wen Gu's script, but was misunderstood again.

So Mr. He decided to use his own methods. He waited at her doorstep. When Dr. Qin arrived, she heard someone shouting for help and rushed in. As the attacker was about to hit her, Mr. He arrived just in time to save her, injuring his wrist in the process. Dr. Qin bandaged him. When they bent down to pick up medicine, their eyes met and a subtle emotional spark emerged. The next day during a meeting, Mr. He was distracted, asking how to recruit someone he desired.

He even secretly browsed Qin Yiyue’s Weibo and accidentally liked a post. Xiaobao also pressured him. Mr. He brought a cake he made and took Xiaobao to a tea garden where Dr. Qin was also present. The two played and teased each other. Mr. He's company had developed a new kind of “love bracelet” and had Wen Gu help test it, though he never actually gave it to him.

While chatting with Xiaobao about birthdays, Dr. Qin noticed an unusual reaction. She asked Mr. He, who explained that five years ago on Xiaobao’s birthday, they both lost someone very dear. None of the doctors he tried helped. Dr. Qin decided to give Xiaobao a birthday party to help him. She and Mr. He agreed to decorate together. Dr. Qin also agreed to be Xiaobao’s personal doctor and went to Mr. He's company to sign the contract, refusing a large payment in favor of hot pot instead. They discussed many things over the meal. Mr. He even took her home, and she fell asleep in the car. He then put the couple’s bracelet on her wrist, hiding the fact that it was paired with his.

When Mr. He got home, Xiaobao had plastered the room with notes saying “no birthday,” but changed his mind once he heard he could eat with Dr. Qin. The next morning, Dr. Qin fell ill. Mr. He's bracelet notified him of her condition, prompting him to cancel his meeting and call her to check in.

Episode 3 Recap

When Mr. He saw from the bracelet that the temperature in Dr. Qin’s bathroom was too high, he rushed to her place, cracked the code, and barged in—only to find her showering. Though she was fine, she was clearly weakened. Mr. He locked the door to prevent intruders. Dr. Qin struggled to get out and broke the lock in the process, collapsing weakly into Mr. He's arms.

He carried her to bed, and he and Xiaobao cared for her all night. He even cleaned the house thoroughly. The next morning, Dr. Qin woke up stunned. Mr. He calmly served breakfast. Recalling the previous night made her blush. Suddenly noticing she was in pajamas, she questioned if he had changed her clothes. He admitted he had, and even teased her body proportions and announced her weight. Dr. Qin got angry, saying she hadn’t asked that. Mr.

He joked she had asked him to recall it. When she asked if she looked good, Xiaobao piped up, and Mr. He praised her as sexy, making her embarrassed. He didn’t mention all the effort he put into cleaning or preparing her medicine. When she asked how he knew her door code, he said he deduced it from things she had said. To make up for Xiaobao missing his birthday, Mr. He promised him anything—even agreeing to let Dr. Qin be his mommy.

That night, Xiaobao insisted that Dr. Qin sleep with him instead of Mr. He. He threatened to destroy Mr. He’s hard drive and even cracked his password. The next day, Mr. He and Xiaobao dressed up handsomely to pick up Dr. Qin for an outing. It turned out the whole plan was orchestrated by Xiaobao and Wen Gu. They arranged for Dr. Qin and Mr. He to go play escape room games together.

When an NPC showed up, Dr. Qin beat him up—completely opposite of their expectations—and no romantic sparks flew during the game. They headed to the next stop: the forest. Once there, Xiaobao and Wen Gu snuck away, leaving the adults worried. Seeing Xiaobao’s hat floating on the lake, Dr. Qin rushed toward the water but was stopped by Mr. He. Wen Gu later sent them a photo to ease their worry and drove away, leaving them only camping gear.

Left with no choice, the two spent the night in the forest, sharing one bowl of instant noodles and one tent. They talked a lot, and their relationship gradually warmed. After returning home, Dr. Qin’s best friend was waiting and questioned her about the past. Only then did Dr. Qin realize Zhou Ziyang had never actually won the award. At the hospital, Zhou Ziyang approached Dr. Qin to talk, but Ye Qing saw and provoked her again, challenging her to attend the building’s inauguration ceremony.

Dr. Qin agreed and went shopping for clothes with her best friend. Mr. He and Xiaobao also dressed up for the ceremony. When Dr. Qin arrived, she outshone everyone. Yet Ye Qing still tried to stir trouble, publicly insulting her and using her relationship with Mr. He to create drama. To crush her ex-boyfriend’s pride and embarrass Ye Qing, Mr.He declared that he was proposing to Dr. Qin.

Episode 4 Recap

After returning home, everyone asked Dr. Qin about the proposal. Dr. Qin explained that it was fake—President He just wanted to help her slap her ex-boyfriend in the face and even named the new building “Yiyue Tower. ” While Dr. Qin was taking a bath, she took off the ring and tossed it aside, but her best friend happened to flush the toilet at that moment. Now it was completely gone.

Comments flooded under her Weibo post, and many people called her. Wen Gu rushed over to ask President He about it, and President He said the proposal was real—it was all for Xiaobao. In front of the Yiyue Pavilion, many people came to film. Qin Yiyue pulled President He aside to question him, but President He insisted the proposal was real. He asked if she was afraid of falling in love with him. Dr. Qin retorted that she'd rather die than fall in love with him. Wen Gu took young President He to buy milk tea and happened to run into Qingqing, who still spoke harshly.

So Xiaobao came up with an idea to teach her a lesson. Just as Qingqing walked in, Xiaobao loosened a string holding a cake, and it landed right on Qingqing’s head—just as Zhou Ziyang entered. Both of them ended up a mess. Dr. Qin was drinking water when President He insisted on using her cup. While they struggled over it, he noticed she wasn’t wearing the ring and asked where it went. Dr. Qin, flustered, said she left it at home. President He used this chance to pressure her, emphasizing how valuable the ring was. Dr. Qin tried to leave under the excuse of looking for Xiaobao and Xiaoan, but President He suggested she just call.

She called and learned that they had gotten into trouble again, so she went to find them. Earlier, Qingqing and Zhou Ziyang were left in a sorry state and went to shower. Wen Gu and Xiaobao took their clothes, embarrassing them in front of everyone. The two thought it was Dr. Qin’s doing. That night, Dr. Qin, her best friend, and Xiaoan were having dinner when someone started filming them.

Dr. Qin managed to scare them off with a clever trick. Meanwhile, President He educated Xiaobao at home, asking him to consider Dr. Qin’s perspective. Wen Gu got into trouble too—his father saw the proposal news and replaced all the female staff around him, demanding he find a girlfriend. Wen Gu had no choice but to try picking up girls at an internet café.

He ran into Qin Yiyue’s best friend, but Yang Ruowei not only ruined his plans, she also got him drunk and sent him to a hotel, even leaving money for him. While walking, Dr. Qin spotted a kitten stuck in a tree and tried to rescue it. Her bracelet fell off in the process. On President He's end, an alert showed danger, so he rushed to find her. Unexpectedly, Dr.Qin almost fell while saving the cat, and her senior Ning Fang caught her. They went to his studio together. President He went to her house but found no one and changed the door code. At that moment, Dr. Qin was treating the cat at Ning Fang's studio. As they walked and talked about recent events, they arrived at her place and saw President He waiting at the door.

He got jealous and told his fiancée to mind her image and not walk around with another man. Later, President He had someone investigate the rumors that had defamed Dr. Qin, planning to sue under his name. When someone slandered Dr. Qin in front of Yiyue Pavilion, President He gave them a sharp rebuttal and praised his fiancée. At the hospital, Dr. Qin still refused to marry him, insisting on dating first.

But President He pointed out she had dated Zhou Ziyang for years and still didn’t marry. Dr. Qin seemed persuaded and was slightly shaken. At home, she recalled what President He had said, when the doorbell suddenly rang—it was her parents, arriving unannounced.

Episode 5 Recap

Yiyue’s parents showed up suddenly and asked Dr. Qin to tidy up a new room—it looked like they were planning to stay a while. President He, seeing Ning Fang downstairs, got jealous and called Wen Gu for advice. He even visited Ning Fang’s studio. Their conversation was filled with tension. Dr. Qin happened to come by to see the cat and invited Ning Fang to dinner at a popular hotpot place. Just as Ning Fang invited President He along, Dr. Qin refused on his behalf, saying he wouldn’t eat that kind of food.

Later, President He found the hotpot place and secretly watched them. Then something awkward happened—the waiter threw him a surprise birthday celebration in a corner, causing second-hand embarrassment. The restaurant offered to waive the bill if the couple hugged after the music stopped. Seeing that Ning Fang was about to make a move, President He rushed over, and they accidentally crashed into each other—super awkward.

While working out, President He was distracted, increasing his training load. Wen Gu brought up his ex-girlfriend Lin Wei, but President He showed zero interest in her whereabouts or why she left.

At the hospital, Dr. Qin’s mother saw President He and Xiaobao. While he stepped away, she spoke to Xiaobao and learned that he called her daughter "Mommy." She became anxious. At home, she immediately questioned Qin Yiyue. Her best friend tried to intervene but failed. Yiyue couldn’t find the words to explain. Her parents asked to meet He Qiaoyan, but she said they weren’t involved.

Her mother used emotional manipulation to pressure her, and Dr. Qin made an excuse to leave. Downstairs, she ran into President He, who wanted to come up but she stopped him. He even suspected there was a man in her house. He asked her to take two weeks to think it through and handed her a USB drive containing a timeline of his personal details, telling her to study it and ask questions if needed.

Back upstairs, Qin Yiyue discussed with her best friend what to do next. They came up with a plan—let Ruowei pretend to be He Qiaoyan. Meanwhile, at home, Xiaobao kept asking President He when Mommy was coming—he was really looking forward to it.

The next morning, Yiyue deliberately let her mom see a message from He Qiaoyan on WeChat and pretended to go to the bathroom, giving her parents a chance to reply. But just then, President He texted Dr. Qin, and her parents replied to the real He Qiaoyan. Meanwhile, Ruowei’s phone was at the repair shop. Wen Gu also suggested to President He that he go meet Qin Yiyue’s parents—backfiring their whole plan. Just as they returned to their hometown, President He showed up with gifts.

President He called them Mom and Dad right away. Yiyue’s parents felt it was too soon. He tried to compliment her mom's youthfulness but ended up saying the wrong thing. Just as Yiyue was about to ask him to leave, her parents invited him to stay for dinner. During the meal, He Qiaoyan shared his views on marriage and even had a detailed marriage plan ready. Her parents liked him. When asked about Xiaobao, He Qiaoyan honestly told them that Xiaobao was his older brother’s child. Yiyue had just found out too.

At dinner, President He drank a little and burned himself. When getting toothpaste, he felt the warmth of her home and admitted he envied that kind of family vibe. He even planned to stay overnight—sleeping in Yiyue’s room.

 

Episode 6 Recap

Xiaobao suddenly got sick. He Qiaoyan and Qin Yiyue rushed him to the hospital. He Qiaoyan tried to give him medicine, but Xiaobao wouldn’t take it. Yiyue came up with a kid-friendly strategy—pretending to be a dinosaur taking medicine. He Qiaoyan played along with exaggerated “gulp gulp” sounds, and they finally tricked Xiaobao into taking the medicine. President He bought coffee for Dr. Qin but was upset that he didn’t notice Xiaobao was sick earlier. He felt guilty. Xiaobao even shared snacks with little Dr. Qin and asked her to sleep beside him. She agreed. Then, unexpectedly, Xiaobao called her “Mommy”—they were both shocked.

The next morning, little Dr. Qin tried to sneak out and ran into He Qiaoyan. Without a word, he asked her to move in with him. She refused, but he brought up Xiaobao, saying she could explain it to him herself. Though she insisted she wouldn’t move, her heart wavered.

Back home, her best friend pitched YuniFang facial masks and reminisced about meeting the parents. Dr. Qin asked Ruowei what to do, but didn’t quite agree with her answer. Just as her best friend left, He Qiaoyan arrived with Xiaobao. As soon as he saw little Dr. Qin, Xiaobao called her “Mommy.” Though she told him not to, their time together was warm and cheerful. President He had brought Xiaobao for a check-up and was heading on a business trip, leaving Xiaobao with her.

The next morning, Xiaobao’s vitals had returned to normal. Director Huang said President He could take him home. Little Dr. Qin took a photo with the sleeping Xiaobao and sent it to He Qiaoyan. Seeing his secretary buying local specialties, President He asked for some too.

When Xiaobao woke up and didn’t see little Dr. Qin, he grabbed his tablet and searched for her. At a children's play center, he was bullied by rude parents and kids who called him mute. Just as they were getting aggressive, little Dr. Qin showed up. When she tried to take Xiaobao away, a parent rudely demanded she bring his mom to apologize.

Dr. Qin, fed up, declared she was Xiaobao’s mom and said she didn’t need to be polite to someone so unreasonable. Just then, Qingqing and others passed by and mocked Dr. Qin, saying she was desperate to become Mrs. He. Of course, little Dr. Qin wasn’t having it—she fired back, calling her a trashy ex-boyfriend recycler.

Dr. Qin brought Xiaobao back to the room and promised to always stay with him—just maybe in a different way. She also reassured him that his birth parents loved him too. In the break room, Ruowei overheard Qingqing and others gossiping about Dr. Qin. Trying to defend her friend, Ruowei accidentally spilled coffee on Qingqing. The hospital asked Ruowei to resign voluntarily.

When He Qiaoyan returned to the hospital and saw Dr. Qin cuddled up with Xiaobao, he grinned. Just as he was about to cover her with a blanket, he woke her up. Their eyes met, and the air felt sweet. He Qiaoyan nervously handed over the local treats he brought. Dr. Qin said he actually had a touch of humanity.

Then she learned about what happened to Ruowei. Qin Yiyue felt guilty, thinking it was her fault. But Ruowei reassured her that she had indeed broken the rules and had been wanting to switch jobs anyway. Later, Qin Yiyue went drinking with Ruowei and her senior. He took good care of her. The next morning, Yiyue woke Ruowei up and took her to job interviews with assistant recruitment companies she’d researched—none panned out.

Suddenly, Ruowei got a message from Wenshi Group inviting her to the final interview. Both of them were thrilled. Only after she went did she find out that it was because of He Qiaoyan’s recommendation. Yiyue was touched and planned to thank President He, only to hear that Xiaobao had gone missing.

Episode 7 Recap

He Qiaoyan drove around anxiously with Qin Yiyue searching for Xiaobao. As they passed by her house, Qin Yiyue suddenly realized where Xiaobao might have gone. She quickly turned back, and sure enough, Xiaobao was waiting at her doorstep. After finding him, He Qiaoyan was furious and shouted Xiaobao's full name, He Weifei. Qin Yiyue told him to stop talking, then picked Xiaobao up and took him inside. As soon as He Qiaoyan sat on the sofa, he noticed Dr. Qin’s stinky socks, which made her extremely embarrassed.

Xiaobao proactively admitted his mistake, and He Qiaoyan chose to forgive him. Dr. Qin went to cook, but the kitchen was a mess. He Qiaoyan teased her, saying that if she couldn’t cook, she shouldn’t try, or she’d become a laughingstock. They decided to have a fish-cooking competition. He Qiaoyan followed precise online instructions, while Dr. Qin relied entirely on her instincts.

In the end, Xiaobao judged Dr. Qin the winner because "feeling" is the soul of Chinese cuisine. She had cleverly avoided using ginger and garlic, and even replaced cooking wine with milk to cater to kids. When she took Xiaobao to wash his hands, He Qiaoyan sneakily tasted the food and was caught by the two. He joked about whether he should get a bowl of rice.

That night, after placing the sleeping Xiaobao into the car, He Qiaoyan and Qin Yiyue had a heated discussion about the contract. Using both pressure and provocation, He Qiaoyan successfully got her to sign the agreement. On their last night living together, Yang Ruowei and Qin Yiyue recalled their past experiences with deep nostalgia. They played music and had fun together.

At a Wens Group meeting, Wen Gu made a fool of himself by mistakenly presenting a group chat screenshot instead of his sales trend analysis, which utterly embarrassed his father, Chairman Wen. Yang Ruowei remained cold toward him.

Dr. Qin handed in a document summarizing the conditions of some special children to help the incoming doctor. Director Huang said although many in the hospital gossiped that she was leaving due to marriage, he believed she was doing it for Xiaobao. Her friends at the hospital also felt reluctant to see her go. Wen Gu showed He Qiaoyan a video of Qin Yiyue and Yang Ruowei at home, kindly reminding him that Dr. Qin had silently sacrificed many things for him. Though He Qiaoyan acted indifferent, he truly cared deep down.

The next day, her senior fellow student came to see her and happened to catch her moving. When he heard that Qin Yiyue was moving into He Qiaoyan's house, he was quite disappointed, even though she insisted there was nothing between them. Looking at an old photo of them together, he sighed and wondered if he had shown up too late again.

While Qin Yiyue and her friends were gathering at home, He Qiaoyan suddenly sent someone over — it turned out he had bought her house. He called and ordered her to come down within two minutes. To spite him, she waited five minutes before going down, but she still rushed and even tripped on the way.

The next day, Qin Yiyue moved into He Qiaoyan's house with her luggage. Though they shared a room, they did not share a bed, all to make it seem natural to Xiaobao. To avoid arousing suspicion, they had to act like a real couple in daily life. In the kitchen, Qin Yiyue playfully attacked He Qiaoyan from behind. In the living room, they had to hug and lift each other. When He Qiaoyan lifted her, they locked eyes and seemed to feel something stir between them.

 

Episode 8 Recap

Just a few days into living at the He household, Qin Yiyue was constantly criticized by He Qiaoyan for various unreasonable reasons. He even claimed her hair loss was due to an unbalanced diet. She ignored him and secretly cooked luosifen. When Xiaobao discovered it, the two conspired to eat it in secret. Before long, He Qiaoyan smelled something and thought the bathroom was clogged. Qin Yiyue blamed it on Xiaobao’s farting, and He Qiaoyan actually believed her, even saying he needed to update Xiaobao’s diet.

Qin Yiyue planned a full day of activities for Xiaobao, but He Qiaoyan only allowed a visit to the museum. She secretly told Xiaobao she had her own way. She took him hiking and claimed it was a “natural history museum.”

When Wen Gu arrived at the company, he found that all the female employees his father had dismissed were reinstated. At first, he thought he was hallucinating, but then found out it was Yang Ruowei who had spoken to his father. Meanwhile, He Qiaoyan asked his secretary for a report about Xiaobao and Dr. Qin visiting the museum. The secretary accidentally revealed that all museums were closed on Mondays — which it was — and He Qiaoyan realized they had secretly gone elsewhere. Wen Gu waited downstairs to ask Ruowei to dinner again, but she turned him down.

While hiking with Xiaobao, it suddenly poured rain, but He Qiaoyan showed up just in time with an umbrella, greatly surprising Qin Yiyue. However, once home, they were scolded. Both Xiaobao and Dr. Qin caught colds. He Qiaoyan showed no mercy, found the luosifen wrappers, and declared that no unauthorized food would be allowed in the house again, even confiscating their snacks. After they left, He Qiaoyan secretly opened a snack and enjoyed it.

Qin Yiyue told Xiaobao she wanted to teach He Qiaoyan a lesson. Xiaobao, inspired, drew on his face with a marker while he slept. When Qin Yiyue picked up the marker, He Qiaoyan woke up. Xiaobao fled, and since they were so close, Qin Yiyue painted her own face instead.

The next morning, the two of them fought over the bathroom. He Qiaoyan got in first and, feeling shy, carefully put away the underwear he found. That day, Dr. Qin brought Xiaobao to her old university for a parent-child activity and unexpectedly ran into Ning Fang. They chatted and discussed finding a school for Xiaobao. Ning Fang suggested Sunshine Primary School, a school for special children, and took them for a visit.

At home, Dr. Qin told He Qiaoyan about the day, but Xiaobao showed him a photo of her and Ning Fang. Feeling jealous, He Qiaoyan rejected the idea and ignored her advice, upsetting her so much that she went to her room and skipped dinner. When Xiaobao asked him to coax her, he used a commanding tone, which only made her angrier. She packed her things and left.

Wen Gu again asked Ruowei to lunch but was still turned down. Meanwhile, Xiaobao secretly packed and went to find Dr. Qin. When she arrived, she messaged He Qiaoyan to prevent him from worrying. He came to pick her up, but Xiaobao refused to go home or cancel the agreement with Dr. Qin.

Qin Yiyue visited Ning Fang’s studio, and he invited her to work with him, having already prepared an office. Just then, Director Huang called to ask her to substitute at the hospital. There, she found that Sheng Huai’s mother was emotionally unstable. At a meeting, she suggested psychological evaluation, but Qingqing objected. After some debate, she went to speak with Sheng Huai’s mother, but Qingqing deliberately twisted her words, causing a misunderstanding.

While Sheng Huai’s mother was emotionally unstable on a phone call in the hallway, she bumped into Dr. Qin and pushed her down the stairs — just as He Qiaoyan arrived.

 

Episode 9 Recap

After falling down the stairs, Qin Yiyue was rushed to the hospital by He Qiaoyan. She suffered a ligament strain but no fractures. Surprisingly, Zhou Ziyang was the attending physician. He Qiaoyan demanded a replacement, but Dr. Qin said to trust a doctor’s professionalism, so he waited outside. Upon hearing she would need a crutch, he stormed in and carried her out in his arms.

Later, Sheng Huai’s mother maliciously posted accusations against Qin Yiyue on social media, attracting many bloggers and reporters to the hospital. He Qiaoyan had already called in a PR team. While the media swarmed the hospital, Ning Fang managed to pick up Qin Yiyue and take her away. At home, everyone watched the news. Qingqing continued to slander her, but He Qiaoyan would not let it slide.

He canceled a meeting with an American team to handle the issue and even involved the legal department to sue. He Qiaoyan sued Qingqing. She and Zhou Ziyang came to talk, but He Qiaoyan stood his ground. He said that even if his wife Qin Yiyue chose to forgive the past, it didn’t mean he would allow others to bully her. He went to her home to pick her up.

After some playful arguing, Qin Yiyue agreed to return — on the condition that her salary be multiplied by five. At the car door, she made him carry her inside. Back home, she told him she would work part-time at Ning Fang’s studio. As for the agreement, it would depend on his performance — and even insisted he push her back to her room himself. The next morning, Qin Yiyue couldn’t reach a piece of clothing and accidentally spilled water.

He Qiaoyan rushed to help, and though she said it wasn’t necessary, he helped anyway. When handing over the clothes, he tripped and accidentally touched her leg. Wen Gu unexpectedly fired his four favorite female employees, shocking Ruowei. That evening, He Qiaoyan had just arranged a dinner meeting with President Lin, but Qin Yiyue texted to go grocery shopping together. When he assigned the task to someone else, she reminded him it was a family activity.

So, he canceled the dinner and went himself. At the supermarket, He Qiaoyan pushed Qin Yiyue, who pushed Xiaobao. They bought a bunch of snacks. Though He Qiaoyan objected, her sharp tongue persuaded him. Back home, they had hotpot together. He Qiaoyan attentively warned her not to eat spicy food, stopped her from drinking cola, and offered warm water instead. Qin Yiyue was touched and thanked him.

While searching the study, Dr. Qin found many photos of girls’ backs in He Qiaoyan’s drawer, which puzzled her. Xiaobao called her away, and they painted and colored together. Though the room became messy, the warm family atmosphere made it worthwhile. Because she hadn’t washed her hair in days, Qin Yiyue used prickly heat powder. He Qiaoyan asked if she needed help. Though she said, “Whatever,” he interpreted it as “No, but yes,” and washed her hair himself, even drying it carefully.

Later, He Qiaoyan sat in his study, staring at one of the photos of the girl’s back, lost in memory. The next morning, Xiaobao and Dr. Qin saw him off to work. Xiaobao asked him to kiss mommy. Though Qin Yiyue told him not to take it seriously, He Qiaoyan kissed her neck anyway. Both seemed slightly stirred by the moment. Before leaving, he told her a lawyer would visit that afternoon. It turned out the lawyer came to discuss suing Sheng Huai’s mother. But Dr. Qin didn’t want to sue, so she sent the lawyer away.

Episode 10 Recap

Qin Yiyue rushed to He Qiaoyan’s office asking him to withdraw the lawsuit, but Mr. He didn’t agree. He believed people shouldn't be too emotional and told Dr. Qin that taking care of Xiaobao was her responsibility and she shouldn't leave her post. Hearing this, Dr. Qin was furious and said she didn’t want to stay even a second longer in his cold office, then fainted. She told him not to bother with her, but Mr. He still carried her to his chair and pushed her out.

Wen Gu used the previous incident as an excuse to approach Yang Ruowei again, and while they were playfully bickering, Chairman Wen happened to see them.

Mr. He read books with Xiaobao, even reading Galileo’s classic works. Dr. Qin felt it was inappropriate for a child of this age and brought some children's books instead. They searched for items together, but every time they found something, Mr. He could instantly spot it, which amazed Qin Yiyue.

The next morning, Dr. Qin was irritated just seeing He Qiaoyan and wanted to wait until he left for work before going to the bathroom. But Mr. He, thinking she was still having trouble moving, waited for her. The two ended up dawdling for quite a while. Just as Mr. He came to knock on the door, Yiyue decided to come out, but He Qiaoyan still didn’t withdraw the lawsuit.

Qin Yiyue blocked him downstairs, insisting he withdraw the lawsuit. In response, He Qiaoyan carried her princess-style into the bedroom and told Xiaobao to keep an eye on her. Just as he was about to go swimming, he found Qin Yiyue secretly taking pictures of him. He grabbed her phone and deleted the photos. In the struggle, they both fell onto a chair. He Qiaoyan remarked that she was too heavy, and she ended up falling onto him. Just then, his secretary walked in and witnessed this awkward moment—it turned out it was Sheng Huai’s mother coming to see Mr. He. Mr. He explained that he didn’t file the lawsuit because of Dr. Qin and had voluntarily taken on the child's school expenses, even hiring a professional psychologist for his mother, urging her to face her psychological issues.

After hearing this, Yiyue went to the study to see Mr. He and rewarded him with a bottle of yogurt because he was helpful to others. But Mr. He said it wasn’t due to kindness; he admitted that following her suggestions had actually felt pretty good. Mr. He even showed her the performance report, which even included sleeping in late. Dr. Qin got so annoyed she knocked over a book, revealing a group photo inside—Mr. He’s older brother and sister-in-law were in it, along with a woman who seemed to be his ex-girlfriend.

Dr. Qin wanted to take a shower, but Mr. He stayed in the bathroom for too long. When she knocked, he finally came out looking unwell and collapsed into her arms. Dr. Qin immediately stood up and could walk—her foot had long since healed. She helped him to bed and took his temperature—it was just 38 degrees. According to her medical expertise, physical cooling would suffice.

She used an ice towel, but Mr. He felt it was too cold. Then she used a wet towel but forgot to wring it out, and water dripped everywhere. Her ginger soup had chunks of ginger, making Mr. He think she was trying to kill him. He ended up a mess. But Dr. Qin cared for him until his fever broke in the middle of the night before going to bed herself.

The next day Wen Gu came to see Mr. He—it turned out he was the one who took the photos, and Mr. He had asked him to find someone. After some grumbling, Mr. He agreed to buy him a car. Dr. Qin started working at Ning Fang’s studio but kept wondering who the woman in the photo was. Chairman Wen reassigned Ruowei to be Wen Gu’s assistant, believing he listened to her more. Ruowei pursued Wen Gu and always sabotaged his flings, stopping only when he got home. Coincidentally, Dr. Qin invited her for skewers.

But once Dr. Qin showed her the group photo, they spent the whole time discussing the woman in it. Even after getting home, she was still thinking about it. She accidentally sent a voice message to Mr. He instead of Ruowei. Mr. He deliberately played it back for her, and Dr. Qin said she just wanted to help him rediscover his warmth—for both him and Xiaobao. The next morning, Qin Yiyue again discussed sending Xiaobao to Sunshine Primary School with He Qiaoyan. This time he seemed to waver and even called Professor Wu to fund the school and asked for recommendations for suitable, well-connected people.

 

Episode 11 Recap

He Qiaoyan decorated the house warmly as Qin Yiyue had suggested. When she and Xiaobao returned, they were pleasantly surprised—it looked like a little fairytale house. Mr. He even cooked and replaced the table with a small round one that brought everyone closer. They shared dishes, and Xiaobao was very happy.

Ruowei met Wen Gu at their agreed place. He played the violin and fed Wagyu beef—clearly up to no good—but Ruowei saw right through it. He had arranged for someone to secretly photograph them, trying to prove that Yang Ruowei was approaching him to become the Wen family’s daughter-in-law, hoping Chairman Wen would fire her and free him. They made a bet: whoever fell for the other first would leave.

Dr. Qin took Xiaobao to see Ning Fang, who brought a basketball. Mr. He followed them secretly. They played basketball with a wager: if Mr. He lost, Xiaobao would go to Sunshine Primary School. Mr. He intentionally let her win—he wanted to know if Xiaobao truly wanted to go and had already investigated the school, so he agreed.

With two days before school started, Dr. Qin prepared all the essentials and a symbolic pre-school ritual, including covering textbooks. Meanwhile, Mr. He prepared a prototype of a smart backpack equipped with safety features, GPS, and a camera. Dr. Qin felt it was unnecessary, as the school had full-time staff and to help Xiaobao fit into normal life, he shouldn't stand out too much.

At the school gate, Xiaobao hesitated. The teacher suggested giving her encouragement kisses. They both kissed her, but He Qiaoyan and Dr. Qin only pretended—the child didn’t notice. Ning Fang arrived just in time and went in with her. Mr. He returned to the car and realized he had forgotten the smart backpack. He rescheduled his meeting to a location facing the second floor of Sunshine Primary, and using binoculars, he saw Yiyue and Ning Fang together. Feeling jealous, he called her, claiming something urgent and told her to return home immediately.

Back home, Mr. He said he was hungry—that was the “urgent matter.” He asked Yiyue to make the noodles she had cooked for Xiaobao last time. They turned out tasty, so Yiyue made seafood instant noodles and forced Mr. He to finish them, but didn’t give him chopsticks. They fought over them, and their interaction seemed a bit ambiguous. Just then, He Qiaoyan’s aunt came back and saw them in the kitchen. Mr. He introduced Yiyue as his wife, but the aunt didn’t believe it. When she asked Xiaobao, the child said, “She’s the mommy he found,” which made the aunt even more suspicious—they were pretending to be a couple for Xiaobao.

Sensing his aunt's doubt, Mr. He told Yiyue to figure something out. They acted sweet and intimate, doing what normal couples would. Yiyue cooked with Aunt Liu and served dishes to the aunt, who remained cold and even asked for public chopsticks. Mr. He stepped in to ease the tension. Xiaobao joined in, and eventually the aunt left. Mr. He saw her off, and Yiyue and Xiaobao finally felt comfortable enough to eat.

In the car, the aunt discussed with someone and realized He Qiaoyan might genuinely have feelings for Qin Yiyue. Though the marriage was fake, he seemed to have fallen for her. So she decided to quickly bring over Lin Wei, believing the He and Lin families must marry.

 

Episode 12 Recap

Mr. He and his aunt discussed the future development of the wristband project. She said she would handle the 30th anniversary gala. Mr. He stated that he would bring his wife this year. His aunt doubted whether she even knew basic dancing, but Mr. He was confident in Yiyue and told her not to underestimate her.

At home, Mr. He talked to Yiyue about the gala. Yiyue didn’t want to attend, feeling it was just about wearing torturously tight dresses and sky-high heels. Mr. He disagreed, saying her current identity required her to go with him. He even used reverse psychology, suggesting she was scared because she couldn’t dance. It worked—Yiyue agreed to learn.

The next day, Mr. He hired a dance teacher, a designer, and even managed her diet. After a whole day of dancing, dinner was just vegetables and milk. Dr. Qin couldn’t eat—she needed high-calorie comfort food and wanted hotpot. Mr. He found hotpot images online for her to look at while eating. Upstairs, Yiyue practiced very hard.

Mr. He received a call that the driver involved in the old accident had been found in Tongcheng and rushed out. Yiyue noticed and let the teachers go home. She then invited Ruowei for hotpot. Aunt Liu, while cleaning, told Dr. Qin about the driver, Zhang Cheng. At the same time, Ruowei texted her saying she found a great hotpot place near the company and told her to wait there.

On his way to find Zhang Cheng, Mr. He learned the man had fled again and, furious, went to Wen’s company. There, he ran into Yiyue, who was waiting for Ruowei. Ruowei came in to give Wen Gu some documents and accidentally revealed they had plans for hotpot and milk tea. Mr. He questioned Yiyue—wasn’t she supposed to be practicing dancing? But Yiyue was indifferent.

Mr. He felt all her previous efforts were in vain. Yiyue insisted that Xiaobao was her job, and she didn’t want to get involved in things outside her role, especially Mr. He’s personal matters. Mr. He was disappointed and left angrily. Later, Wen Gu told Yiyue about his older brother and sister-in-law—Mr. He had carried the burden alone, saving the He Group from crisis and bringing it back to glory.

During hotpot, Yiyue was distracted. She realized how much Mr. He had suffered and wanted to do something for him. So she decided to fully commit to learning to dance. Back home, she found Mr. He and asked him to confiscate all her snacks. While she practiced in her room, Mr. He noticed she really didn’t know anything and started teaching her himself. As they practiced, Yiyue let loose, kicked off her heels, and happily danced to the music. Mr. He laughed too.

At the gala, Mr. He sweetly told Yiyue that he had instructed the kitchen to prepare extra food—she could eat as much as she wanted at the buffet. Inside, Mr. He introduced his wife, Qin Yiyue, and they danced the entire routine perfectly. Mr. He thanked her for accompanying him. He even had a surprise—flat shoes—so they could jump and dance together joyfully. But unexpectedly, his aunt had sent an invitation to Lin Wei, and she showed up.

Episode 13 Recap

After Lin Wei arrived, everyone gathered around her. Many even thought He Qiaoyan and Lin Wei were a better match. Standing aside, Qin Yiyue felt somewhat unnecessary and decided to go wait for him outside. But as soon as she took a step, her shoelace tripped her and she fell in front of everyone, making a fool of herself. He Qiaoyan immediately rushed over to help her up.

Back home, his aunt actually said Qin Yiyue was not presentable, but He Qiaoyan disagreed. He thought Qin Yiyue had done very well. Moreover, although he acknowledged that the Lin family had done the He family a favor, he didn’t think they needed to constantly yield. A win-win for both families was what mattered most. In her room, Qin Yiyue was muttering to herself while browsing Weibo when He Qiaoyan suddenly came in to apply an ice pack for her.

Embarrassed, Qin Yiyue hurriedly told him to leave. As soon as he left, she got a voice call from Dr. Qin asking about Lin Wei, but He Qiaoyan said they just knew each other since childhood and both liked math class—nothing more. He then urged Qin Yiyue to get to sleep. Qin Yiyue was in Ning Fang’s office scrolling through Weibo when she saw a post about a first love, which made her think of He Qiaoyan.

Just then, Yang Ruowei asked her about it. Qin Yiyue messaged He Qiaoyan, but he didn’t reply—he usually replied instantly, but this time it took ages. Qin Yiyue was a bit upset, and Zhou Xiaoan comforted her, saying she would always stand by her. At that moment, Qin Yiyue found out she was being scolded on Weibo, compared to Lin Wei by many people.

But she didn’t care much—her only concern was Xiaobao, and she quickly went to pick him up. Meanwhile, He Qiaoyan wasn’t going to let the public opinion spread further. He’d already notified the legal department for an emergency response. When he saw Qin Yiyue’s message about picking up Xiaobao, he felt reassured. After returning home, he asked Dr. Qin what to do about the online mess, and she told him that with him by her side, she wasn’t worried.

That night, Yang Ruowei was working overtime when eerie cries echoed in the office, shadows moved around, a board suddenly fell, and a bloody doll jumped out. But Ruowei calmly went to the restroom to wash her hands. Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind her followed by a scream—Wen Gu leapt out. But cleverness backfired on him.

It turned out Ruowei had already figured it out and even complained the script was cliché and the props and makeup weren't convincing. He Qiaoyan was waiting at a restaurant. Turns out Lin Wei had arrived. His aunt had invited both of them out. He questioned whether it was her who instigated the self-media posts, and she admitted it, saying she wanted to show Qin Yiyue that she and He Qiaoyan weren’t suitable.

But He Qiaoyan firmly replied that if he said they were suitable, then they were. That night at home, He Qiaoyan handed Qin Yiyue a glass of water and asked if she had anything she wanted to ask. He even apologized to her, though Qin Yiyue didn’t understand why. He said it was compensation for emotional damage and transferred her 100,000 yuan. But Qin Yiyue asked to shorten the contract by one month.

He refused, but offered her a short period of freedom. That "freedom" turned out to be a family outing with Xiaobao. On the way, they even encountered paparazzi. He Qiaoyan said he had arranged it, aiming to generate sweet rumors to overshadow the negative ones. Along the way, he, Dr. Qin, and Xiaobao were a sweet and slightly flirtatious family trio.

After they got home, Zhou Xiaoan mentioned that He Qiaoyan had joined Weibo, with a profile saying he was Dr. Qin’s lover, and even posted at 6:07, symbolizing Qin Yiyue’s birthday—June 7. His aunt arranged for the best candidate responsible for promoting the wristbands in Europe and the US, and asked He Qiaoyan to receive her—turns out it was Lin Wei. He didn't want to use her, but Lin Wei proved her worth with real skills and data.

Yang Ruowei went to the company to help Wen Gu pick up some materials and happened to see Lin Wei and He Qiaoyan working together. She took photos of them.

Episode 14 Recap

While Qin Yiyue was working, Yang Ruowei came to her and showed her the photos. Qin Yiyue didn’t even know about it—proof that He Qiaoyan hadn’t told her, and Yang Ruowei thought he felt guilty. After going home, Qin Yiyue stuck a photo of He Qiaoyan on her pillow and started punching it, cursing while hitting it. He Qiaoyan, lying in bed outside, heard the noise and even used his phone to measure the decibels—there was noise now.

He went to her, and Qin Yiyue pretended to apologize. But when he saw his photo on her pillow, he thought she was jealous because she didn’t have a cartoon version of him, so he offered to custom-make a large-sized one, leaving her flustered. The next morning, Qin Yiyue had planned a weekend schedule, but He Qiaoyan had to work overtime, so everything was canceled, and she didn’t even eat breakfast. Xiaobao messaged Xiaoan asking why mommy was unhappy.

Xiaoan said it’s because her love rival went to the company and explained what a love rival meant. Xiaobao then said he’d go to the company to find daddy. Dr. Qin prepared tuna sandwiches and went with him to visit He Qiaoyan. On the way, Qin Yiyue kept asking Xiaobao if she was pretty. At the company, Lin Wei brought sandwiches to He Qiaoyan and said designer Lucas believed tuna flavor affected ideas and shouldn’t be eaten.

But He Qiaoyan asked Qin Yiyue to put down the lunch and said they’d go eat together after the meeting. So Qin Yiyue took Xiaobao outside to wait. As soon as they left, Lin Wei and He Qiaoyan sat together to discuss the proposal. Qin Yiyue went to the restroom, and Xiaobao snuck back in and dropped a fake bug in Lin Wei’s coffee. When she drank it, coffee spilled all over her. He Qiaoyan scolded Xiaobao immediately.

When Qin Yiyue came to find Xiaobao, she bumped into Lin Wei, who actually warned her that otherwise, she’d fall harder. Qin Yiyue asked He Qiaoyan to talk to Xiaobao properly, but he didn’t ask why Xiaobao did it and just scolded him. Qin Yiyue talked to him calmly, asking if he understood how to teach a child. He Qiaoyan questioned her—“If I don’t understand, you do?

” Wen Gu and Yang Ruowei were playing out more drama at the company. He arranged for others to give her unrelated tasks and made her work overtime, but she completed everything. Later, though Wen Gu appeared as if he was saving the day, Ruowei had already seen through it, leaving Wen Gu empty-handed again. Qin Yiyue took Xiaobao back to her parents’ home. Her mother immediately sensed something was wrong and asked if she and He Qiaoyan had fought.

Qin Yiyue denied it, so her mother comforted her, explaining that quarrels between couples were normal. Qin Yiyue wasn’t as angry anymore, and she had intentionally left her luggage at He Qiaoyan’s place so he’d come get her. But when the doorbell rang, it was his assistant—He Qiaoyan had sent her luggage back and said he was giving her a break. That made her even angrier. On the way, Senior Brother Ning Fang bumped into Lin Wei.

Turns out they had known each other since France, and she had even asked him to bring her medicine and keep it secret. Qin Yiyue’s father suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. He had infectious endocarditis, and due to his age, the surgery was high-risk. Her mother fainted upon hearing this. Just when Qin Yiyue was overwhelmed, He Qiaoyan showed up in time and brought the top medical team to perform the surgery, putting her at ease.

Episode 15 Recap

Lying in bed, Qin Yiyue’s father was still talking about how Old Li lost twenty yuan to him while playing cards, which eased the anxiety of both Qin Yiyue and her mother. He also said he was hungry, so her mom went to make millet porridge. Then he told Qin Yiyue the password to his bank card. He had saved up all her allowances and his former company and retirement funds and handed the card to her.

She wouldn’t take it, but he felt guilty for not giving her a dowry after she got married, which moved Qin Yiyue to tears. During the surgery, both she and her mother were very anxious. Soon, He Qiaoyan arrived with Xiaobao. He not only managed the entire surgery data himself but also brought another team of medical professionals as backup, touching Qin Yiyue deeply. Xiaobao even gave her his lollipop. The surgery was a success.

That night, Qin Yiyue was guarding her father outside the ward. He Qiaoyan was working inside. Seeing her nodding off, he took off his coat and draped it over her. Her father woke up then and secretly peeked at them. When Qin Yiyue’s hair got in her mouth while she slept, He Qiaoyan tried to fix it. But Qin Yiyue mistook his finger for a chicken foot and bit him.

When she woke up, she was startled and realized her father was awake—he even made a peace sign. Qin Yiyue and He Qiaoyan responded with a heart sign. The next day, He Qiaoyan’s aunt also visited Qin Yiyue’s father. Her parents welcomed her warmly. Wen Gu arrived just then. Since something came up at He Qiaoyan’s company, he left it to Wen Gu.

When his aunt left, she noticed Xiaobao was close to Qin Yiyue’s parents and told He Qiaoyan she suspected Qin Yiyue was intentionally getting close to Xiaobao. But He Qiaoyan firmly believed that was impossible. Qin Yiyue asked Wen Gu about the girl in the dream’s silhouette and used info about Yang Ruowei in exchange.

Wen Gu told her it was the silhouette of a girl He Qiaoyan saw in a dream within a dream, and insisted the girl didn’t exist. As expected, the aunt had someone investigate Qin Yiyue again. After finishing work, He Qiaoyan suddenly got a call from Qin Yiyue’s mom and rushed to the hospital. Her relatives had all shown up. The moment he walked in, everyone surrounded him, taking selfies and talking about their jobs.

Then Yang Ruowei and Senior Brother Ning Fang arrived. Yang Ruowei asked He Qiaoyan and Ning Fang to help carry fruit. In the elevator, the two had another close encounter with a subtle spark. Suddenly Lin Wei appeared and said there was an emergency at the company and called He Qiaoyan away. She also provoked Qin Yiyue, making her furious. When Yang Ruowei returned to the office, she found her older brother sitting in her seat.

She dragged him out and ran into Wen Gu, who thought he was some greasy guy chasing her. Turned out it was just her shameless brother asking for money again. That night, while applying a face mask, Ruowei accidentally knocked over a bathroom box and found a ring inside. The next day, she rushed to deliver the ring to Qin Yiyue—this symbolized her status as Mrs. He and the power that came with it.

Qin Yiyue’s family was all packed and ready to be discharged. He Qiaoyan brought Xiaobao to pick them up. At the dinner table, the whole family was harmonious. Qin Yiyue’s mom gave Xiaobao food and told him to call her grandma—and to everyone’s shock, he really did, even called grandpa too. But the only one he refused to call was “dad.”

Suddenly, He Qiaoyan got a message saying President Jia wanted to meet them at the hotel for the company banquet. Qin Yiyue saw this and got jealous because it was a hotel meeting. After He Qiaoyan left, Qin Yiyue rushed to Yang Ruowei’s home, asking her to do her makeup and help her put on an evening gown to go to the hotel and find them.

Episode 16 Recap

Qin Yiyue encountered a man acting suspiciously with his phone in the elevator, waving it around everywhere. In reality, he was just trying to find a signal and even placed the phone on the floor with the camera facing upward. This led Qin Yiyue to mistakenly think he was secretly filming her. She grabbed him, insisting on taking him to the police.

As soon as they exited the elevator, they ran into He Qiaoyan and Lin Wei, who both called the man “President Jia. ” It turned out to be a misunderstanding. He Qiaoyan told Qin Yiyue to let go quickly, and then they went in for a meeting. Qin Yiyue waited outside until the meeting ended. President Jia walked out looking quite displeased. Lin Wei told Qin Yiyue that President Jia had rejected working with He’s Group, all because of her.

She also revealed that she knew Qin Yiyue and He Qiaoyan were in a fake marriage — just a contract — and kept putting Qin Yiyue down, saying she was seriously affecting He Qiaoyan’s work. Qin Yiyue was left heartbroken. Outside, Ning Fang was waiting to take her home. He Qiaoyan even gave Qin Yiyue his jacket and said he’d take her back, but she declined. Instead, she went drinking with Ning Fang.

While drinking, she felt deeply upset, as if reality had knocked her hard on the head — all the beautiful moments had been illusions. She felt she was only dragging He Qiaoyan down, and Wen Gu saw this. He quickly informed He Qiaoyan, who rushed over to take Qin Yiyue home. Just then, a call came in — Lin Wei wanted to discuss a partnership proposal.

Qin Yiyue, however, wanted to terminate the contract, believing she had no reason to stand by his side anymore. He Qiaoyan couldn’t understand why she wanted to break the contract, so Qin Yiyue could only say she wanted to spend her time on her own life and didn’t want to interfere with his work. As she turned to leave, He Qiaoyan reached out but failed to hold onto her.

Back home, Qin Yiyue was furious that He Qiaoyan didn’t even try to keep her. Wen Gu came to ask He Qiaoyan what had happened and analyzed the situation, advising him to identify the root problem. The next day, Qin Yiyue was chatting with Yang Ruowei about the matter when He Qiaoyan came to ask again why she wanted to end the contract.

Qin Yiyue even compared him to a toilet, but He Qiaoyan used Xiaobao as an excuse and told Dr. Qin that if Xiaobao found a friend, he would agree to terminate the contract. Unexpectedly, the next day Xiaobao brought a friend named Guoguo, whom he loved playing with. So, Dr. Qin could officially cancel the contract, but she said it would only be finalized after Xiaobao’s parent-child day event.

The eldest aunt and Lin Wei’s mother met to discuss the possibility of marrying He Qiaoyan and Lin Wei. However, He Qiaoyan firmly opposed the idea, saying he would never enter a marriage alliance or sell himself for business. The aunt had someone investigate Dr. Qin and found out she was supposed to become a surgeon, but after injuring her hand saving a child in a car accident, she switched to studying pediatric medicine.

Coincidentally, the accident occurred on the same mountain road and the same day as Xiaobao’s accident, which is why Xiaobao felt a special bond with Dr. Qin. The aunt suspected that Dr. Qin might know the truth behind the car accident. That night, Dr. Qin came to teach Xiaobao a song for the parent-child day event. Her singing triggered He Qiaoyan’s memory of the car accident.

Back in his study, he secretly looked at a photo of the girl he had been searching for all along. Later, President Jia invited He Qiaoyan to discuss a collaboration. This time, He Qiaoyan learned that President Jia didn’t reject the cooperation because of Qin Yiyue, but due to unsatisfactory data analysis. In fact, he even thanked Ms. Qin — she had gone to persuade President Jia earlier. Qin Yiyue recorded the song she sang into a voice recorder.

Just then, Ning Fang arrived, and their conversation was recorded. When He Qiaoyan got home, he happened to find the recorder and played it. In the recording, Dr. Qin indirectly confessed her feelings for He Qiaoyan. At that moment, Dr. Qin realized she had forgotten her phone and came back. She saw He Qiaoyan listening to that very part, and in her embarrassment, tried to grab the recorder, but He Qiaoyan held it tight and didn’t give it back.

Episode 17 Recap

He Qiaoyan was secretly delighted, but Qin Yiyue was so embarrassed she didn’t know what to do. She grabbed her phone and tried to flee, saying good night as she left. President He also replied with “good night. ” Qin Yiyue hesitated to say something more but ultimately left without a word.

President He kept replaying that segment of the recording and even went to Wen Gu’s house to talk about it, smiling the whole time — very out of character. When he said Dr. Qin liked him, Wen Gu was shocked. Qin Yiyue also told Yang Ruowei, who was just as stunned. But when she heard He Qiaoyan didn’t say anything in return, she instantly called him a scumbag.

Still, Qin Yiyue believed that He Qiaoyan didn’t like her and decided to give up. On the other hand, He Qiaoyan analyzed that Qin Yiyue only canceled the contract because she thought he didn’t like her. But he did. Wen Gu warned that if he didn’t respond or take responsibility, it would come across as disinterest — and Ning Fang might swoop in. But He Qiaoyan confidently believed that what he could offer Qin Yiyue, Ning Fang couldn’t.

The next day, Ning Fang came to pick up Dr. Qin and take her to the mountain lodge. Coincidentally, Xiaobao overheard the plan and called President He, who immediately drove back and took Xiaobao to the lodge too. He Qiaoyan constantly interrupted conversations between Dr. Qin and Ning Fang, trying to explain himself. But Qin Yiyue thought he was explaining why he didn’t like her.

She told him that forced love never lasts and that she wouldn’t be hung up on just one man. She even made him watch her talk to the PE teacher, but it turned out the man was already married. He Qiaoyan quickly stepped in, saying Qin Yiyue just had too much energy with nowhere to spend it, then treated everyone to a BBQ and upgraded the lodging to a five-star hotel.

He Qiaoyan told Qin Yiyue that as long as the contract wasn’t terminated, she was still his wife and should be mindful of her public image, and maintain dignity and self-respect. Ning Fang also came to talk to He Qiaoyan and confessed his feelings for Dr. Qin. He Qiaoyan didn’t back down, asserting that his relationship with Qin Yiyue didn’t need guidance and advised Ning Fang to recognize when to cut losses and find his place.

Yang Ruowei deliberately told Wen Gu that she had dinner plans with President Wang and loudly called to share the restaurant’s location. Wen Gu couldn’t stand it anymore and rushed to the restaurant, eventually following her to her door. There, he saw her brother demanding money again. That’s when he realized Yang Ruowei’s gift bag was empty — she never intended to give President Wang a chance and only used the bag as a prop.

At that moment, Wen Gu saw the eldest aunt meeting a man and handing him money. Worried that Wen Gu would tell President He, the aunt called him — only to hear Qin Yiyue’s song in the background. Turns out, during the car accident, it was Qin Yiyue who saved Xiaobao. When Xiaobao’s parents were in the accident, the call to the aunt never disconnected, and she heard Qin Yiyue singing.

On the parent-child day, Xiaobao, Qin Yiyue, and He Qiaoyan performed together. It was harmonious and heartwarming. Then Lin Wei suddenly claimed she could also get along well with Xiaobao and took him to catch fish. Xiaobao made it difficult for her, forcing her into the water, and she got injured. He Qiaoyan carried her out to rest but made it clear — impossible means impossible. Qin Yiyue went to catch fish and fainted after seeing two snakes.

The bracelet on President He’s wrist signaled she was in danger, so he went to find her. The doctor later said the snakes weren’t poisonous — just scared stiff. Qin Yiyue woke up too.

Episode 18 Recap

Qin Yiyue still felt embarrassed. He Qiaoyan insisted on telling everyone she had fainted from fear. He even asked her, if the snakes had been poisonous, what she would want to say to him before dying. Unexpectedly, Qin Yiyue immediately said, “Terminate the contract. ” He Qiaoyan replied there were still six hours left in the parent-child event and agreed to terminate the contract after that.

Qin Yiyue showed a bit of reluctance, and He Qiaoyan told her she wouldn’t have to avoid him anymore in the future. Ning Fang was waiting to take Qin Yiyue home, but Xiaobao came out and insisted she take He Qiaoyan’s car. Left with no choice, Qin Yiyue took Xiaobao and returned in Ning Fang’s car. Back home, every scene reminded He Qiaoyan of Qin Yiyue. That’s when he truly realized what he wanted.

Wen Gu came over and said he might have found the girl from He Qiaoyan’s dreams, but He Qiaoyan said it didn’t matter anymore. Though she looked similar, she felt unfamiliar, and his motivation no longer came from that. Ning Fang got concert tickets he once promised to attend with Qin Yiyue and went to find her. At home, she had prepared food and was feeding Xiaobao. They even played with water guns.

Suddenly, Qin Yiyue became melancholic thinking of He Qiaoyan — and he showed up, bringing a new contract, a whole new partnership. He read it to her aloud: because he developed feelings for Qin Yiyue outside the agreement, he wanted to continue the relationship as a romantic one. The contract term could be indefinitely extended — for example, a lifetime. This was the reason she could stay by his side.

He Qiaoyan rushed forward to kiss her, moving Qin Yiyue to tears. They finally got together officially. Xiaobao was also thrilled, kissing his dad and then his mom. Just then, Ning Fang showed up, but He Qiaoyan, with Qin Yiyue and Xiaobao, said they were heading home and told him they were now officially dating. He Qiaoyan explained Ning Fang had come to inform her that the idol concert was canceled, but Qin Yiyue said it didn’t matter.

He Qiaoyan then took her and Xiaobao home. Once home, He Qiaoyan added a TV and a fridge filled with her favorite snacks in Qin Yiyue’s bedroom. Qin Yiyue wanted to watch TV in bed with He Qiaoyan, and just as the TV showed the main couple kissing, the two started feeling the heat but managed to restrain themselves. Qin Yiyue fell asleep, and He Qiaoyan returned to his own bed.

At the company, everyone joked that the “thousand-year iron tree” finally bloomed — He Qiaoyan was visibly happy. Qin Yiyue was also in a great mood when she returned to her studio. Zhou Xiaoan teased her about being struck by Cupid’s arrow. Lin Wei stormed into President He’s office, returning her termination papers, but He Qiaoyan firmly told her that he and Qin Yiyue were officially in a relationship.

He even asked Qin Yiyue to come to the company and sign a relationship contract, listing countless clauses but never expressing his feelings directly. Qin Yiyue insisted he say “I love you,” but He Qiaoyan didn’t get it. His secretary even reminded him, but he still couldn’t say the words, so Qin Yiyue refused to sign.

Wen Gu chased down President Wang’s car, only to be told that Yang Ruowei’s brother had been pestering him at the office entrance — there was no way he’d want a woman like that. Yang Ruowei later asked Wen Gu to sign papers and challenged him to admit defeat. She saw his heart rate the whole time. But once her brother was mentioned, she snapped.

Wen Gu asked Qin Yiyue and learned that Yang Ruowei’s brother was unreliable and always asking her for money. Yang Ruowei, despite appearing like a romance expert, had little dating experience — she was just protecting herself. He Qiaoyan asked Qin Yiyue out on a date. She dressed beautifully and wore high heels, only to find out the venue was a fishing spot. She was so annoyed she tried to leave and ended up falling. He Qiaoyan helped her put her shoes on and said he had even looked up what made for a perfect date.

Episode 19 Recap

Xiaobao told He Qiaoyan "I like you" so that he could learn how to say it to Yiyue in the future. He Qiaoyan also learned online that after a sweet date, couples lie in bed and share their thoughts. So he lay on the bed waiting for Yiyue. But when Yiyue heard the words "sweet date," she became furious and slammed the door as she entered. Lin Wei had a nightmare in her sleep and felt very unwell.

When she woke up, she looked for her medication but found she had none left. During dinner, her mother subtly pressured her, saying the entire Lin family depended on her. Upon hearing this, Lin Wei’s hands trembled, and she looked very scared. The eldest aunt invited Yiyue to dinner and, both openly and subtly, tried to persuade her to leave He Qiaoyan. Her words were unpleasant. As she was talking, He Qiaoyan arrived.

He firmly expressed his feelings for Yiyue, saying he truly cared about her. He also said he would devote himself to the He Group, but he also longed for the kind of love normal people have, and he wouldn’t allow her to stand in the way of his relationship with Yiyue. After they left together, Yiyue felt that he had been incredibly charming just now. She said she would hold on tightly to He Qiaoyan and never let go.

He Qiaoyan, holding her hand sincerely, said, "I like you. " Yiyue was touched and promised to always be by his side. She even gave Qiaoyan a kiss. When Senior Brother Ning Fang returned home, he saw a car flashing its hazard lights at the entrance. It turned out to be Lin Wei, asking him for medication. It turns out Lin Wei suffers from anxiety, which is getting worse. She ignored Ning Fang’s advice and just demanded the medicine.

After returning home, Lin Wei discovered that several key researchers from He Group’s bracelet team had been poached, and her mother demanded she fulfill her promises and not bring shame to the Lin family. The next day, Lin Wei went to see Ning Fang all bundled up to get medicine. But Ning Fang asked her to fill out a form first. She refused. Ning Fang insisted she fill it out carefully, or he wouldn’t give her the medicine.

Left with no choice, Lin Wei filled it out. Ning Fang continued to advise her, but she wouldn’t listen. So he told her this would be the last time he gave her medication; from now on, she’d need to get a proper prescription. At home, He Qiaoyan gave Yiyue a massage. Yiyue took his phone and changed the WeChat avatar to herself, the background photo to one of them together, and even changed his lock screen password to her birthday.

When He Qiaoyan picked up her phone to return the favor, he discovered a message from Yang Ruowei saying she wanted to introduce a boy to Yiyue and that she shouldn't cling to "old meat" like Qiaoyan. He Qiaoyan then mass-texted Yiyue’s contacts to update her relationship status, making it seem like her account had been hacked. He Qiaoyan also took Yiyue out to meet all her friends and announce their relationship.

They had a meal, played Truth or Dare, and displayed their affection openly. At one point, they even shared a single French fry. In the end, Yiyue got drunk, and Qiaoyan carried her home. Hearing that the eldest aunt liked golf, Yiyue asked Qiaoyan to teach her. She wanted the aunt’s approval for the sake of him and Xiaobao. She practiced golf tirelessly, even in her sleep. He Qiaoyan joined her at the golf course, and they kissed while practicing.

Suddenly, Qiaoyan had to leave for an emergency, so Yiyue continued practicing alone. It turned out that key members of He Qiaoyan’s bracelet team were poached by Lin Group. He returned to handle it, working late and unable to pick Yiyue up. As Yiyue left the golf course, she saw Driver Zhang threatening the eldest aunt. She stepped in to protect her and learned from Zhang that he wasn’t the driver during the accident back then.

The aunt then told Yiyue that the driver was actually He Qiaoyan, and the one who saved Xiaobao was Yiyue herself. That’s why she didn’t want Yiyue and Qiaoyan to be together—it would stir up painful memories. Though heartbroken, Yiyue didn’t want Qiaoyan to be hurt, so she promised the aunt she would leave him.

Episode 20 Recap

That night, Yiyue couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning, because she realized she was the girl from Qiaoyan’s dreams. The next day, He Qiaoyan had already asked for leave on Xiaobao’s behalf and arranged for Yiyue and the aunt to play golf together. But Yiyue was clearly distracted. At the course, Qiaoyan left to drop off Xiaobao, leaving the aunt and Yiyue alone without much interaction. The aunt said Qiaoyan and Xiaobao truly loved Yiyue, and Yiyue also loved them.

She then promised the aunt she would break up with him. Hearing this, the aunt was finally relieved. When Qiaoyan returned, he comforted Yiyue not to be discouraged. With tears in her eyes, Yiyue told He Qiaoyan she wanted to break up. Qiaoyan thought she was joking at first but later realized she meant it. He suspected the aunt had said something again. Wen Gu went home for dinner because it was his mother's death anniversary.

Chairman Wen reminisced and regretted arguing with her. Wen Gu thought back to how Ruowei argued with her brother and asked the chairman for a villa. Yiyue brought BBQ to visit Ruowei, scaring her. That’s when Ruowei found out she and Qiaoyan had broken up. Yiyue didn’t say why, only that modern couples break up often, and they separated peacefully due to personality differences. He Qiaoyan waited outside Yiyue’s building all night, until the lights went out.

The next morning, Qiaoyan brought Xiaobao to deliver breakfast to Yiyue. He even noticed the alcohol smell on her breath. Even the daily routine of complimenting each other and hugging before leaving the house was refused by Yiyue. After she went inside and put on lipstick, Qiaoyan stayed outside waiting until she finished eating breakfast. The driver then took Xiaobao to school. Qiaoyan wanted to take Yiyue to work but didn’t call a car.

Yiyue left on her e-bike, so Qiaoyan flagged down a random woman’s electric scooter, paid 20,000 yuan to buy it, and wobbled all the way to catch up with Yiyue at the counseling clinic. He even pulled his back during the chase, making Yiyue laugh. He hugged her from behind and said he wouldn’t agree to break up—this was just a break. But they’d still have breakfast and dinner together and go on weekly dates as usual.

Wen Gu sent Ruowei a location and arrived at the villa, only to surprise her by bringing her mother along. Her mother only cared about her brother. Ruowei was furious and ran out. Wen Gu chased after her, but she lashed out, saying he had no right to interfere in her life and didn’t understand her family’s problems. That night, Wen Gu attended a drinking party.

Ruowei found him in the rain, but he acted indifferent, prompting her to call him a jerk. Yiyue was waiting at the bus stop when she ran into Senior Brother Ning Fang. They chatted and went home together, where they found Qiaoyan had been waiting all night. Xiaobao was asleep, and Qiaoyan had bought cake. Then Qiaoyan took Xiaobao home. The next day, Yiyue went on a business trip for Ning Fang.

Episode 21 Recap

Yiyue was lying on the couch when the doorbell rang. It was He Qiaoyan and Xiaobao, bringing food from a restaurant. He said they promised to eat dinner together every day and had even pre-cut the steak. Suddenly, Qiaoyan got a call saying that due to Lin Group’s interference, their company couldn’t sign the contract with Mr. Rongge—a clear warning from Lin Group. Wen Gu lay on his bed remembering Ruowei calling him a jerk.

Determined to change, he decided to stop attending messy social events. At the office, his colleagues were shocked by his new attitude. He immediately held meetings and ignored the fact that Ruowei had a fever. He seriously analyzed the company's development trends and tightly scheduled the whole day. Lin Wei had just taken a pill when her mother showed up, saying her father intentionally embarrassed He Group.

Lin Wei promised her mother she’d take He Qiaoyan to that night’s Lin Group appreciation banquet. Meanwhile, Yiyue got an opportunity to study in Germany—recommended through He Group’s collaboration with Germany. At a meeting, He Qiaoyan apologized for failing to bring the bracelet product to Western markets and said he would take full responsibility, even resigning as CEO if necessary. Lin Wei visited Yiyue’s child psychology clinic, asking her to convince Qiaoyan to attend the Lin Group banquet.

Her words made it clear what difficult position Qiaoyan was in. She said it would be good for both Qiaoyan and He Group. Yiyue wavered. Yiyue later cared for Ruowei at home. She learned that Wen Gu had brought Ruowei’s mother and brother without permission and really hurt her. Yiyue checked Ruowei’s heartbeat and said she had fallen for Wen Gu. She called Wen Gu to come over. He was having coffee with Qiaoyan but went to Ruowei’s place.

Ruowei had even done a makeup look to appear pitiful. Wen Gu brought ginger soup, which touched her a little. Yiyue asked Qiaoyan if he was really leaving He Group. Qiaoyan said he was only stepping down as CEO and would now have more time to spend with her and Xiaobao. Yiyue then told him the location of the Lin Group banquet and asked him to do her a favor.

Wen Gu said he wanted to cancel his “heart-throbbing bet” with Ruowei because he realized he liked her. But before he could finish, Ruowei kicked him out. He Qiaoyan arrived at the banquet. Lin Wei came out to find him. But Qiaoyan called Yiyue. Holding back tears, she told him she didn’t love him as much as he thought.

She said she was going to study abroad—it was her lifelong dream—and admitted she traded sending him to Lin Wei in exchange for that opportunity. But Qiaoyan said he could help her go abroad and even bring Xiaobao along. Still, Yiyue refused, saying being in a relationship with him was exhausting and not worth it for either of them. Nevertheless, Qiaoyan refused to attend the banquet with Lin Wei.

Lin Wei even tried to force a kiss on him, which he rejected. Her emotions spiraled, and she found herself without medication. Desperate, she called Senior Brother Ning Fang, who brought her to his home. Qiaoyan began to suspect someone was helping Driver Zhang cover things up. He suspected the eldest aunt. Just then, Zhang called the aunt and was spotted by Qiaoyan. He chased Zhang down and learned that the car involved in the accident was driven by himself. Qiaoyan was devastated and couldn’t accept the truth.

Episode 22 Recap

The eldest aunt told He Qiaoyan the truth about what happened back then: it was He himself who was driving. Qin Yiyue happened to pass by and saved Xiaobao, while he was thrown out of the car. Yiyue didn’t see him, but in a haze, he saw the back of Dr. Qin and heard her voice. He Qiaoyan felt extremely guilty, distressed, and heartbroken.

He also feared that if Xiaobao ever found out the truth, he would no longer acknowledge him as his father. Yiyue’s parents called to say they were coming. Yiyue urged them to return quickly and explained everything to them. Her father initially thought He Qiaoyan had done something wrong, but Yiyue clarified that she was the one who initiated the breakup, hurting He’s feelings. She reassured her parents that studying abroad in Germany had always been her dream.

Wen Gu’s hardworking attitude at the company surprised Yang Ruowei. But Wen Gu simply wanted to prove to her that he wasn’t a loser or someone who achieved nothing. Ruowei joked about whether he wanted a raise. Wen Gu said no. “Then forget it,” Ruowei teased, and walked out smiling. Lin Wei stayed at Ning Fang’s place, ignoring calls from her mother.

When it was time to take her medicine, she saw a note Ning left saying, “When it gets too hard, find something to do to distract yourself. ” Lin then found Ning’s little notebook where he recorded daily life and began flipping through it page by page. That evening, Wen Gu asked Ruowei to accompany him to a social gathering, but Ruowei declined because Yiyue was leaving the next day and they were having dinner together that night.

At the dinner table, Yiyue and He Qiaoyan were awkward. Both were reluctant to part but didn’t know what to say. Yiyue recalled their past memories with a heavy heart. Ning Fang and Ruowei noticed their expressions and were the first to break the silence. Yiyue pretended nothing was wrong and served food to everyone. They toasted, but Qiaoyan remarked that alcohol couldn’t numb pain or bring joy. Yiyue replied they came from different worlds.

He agreed to the breakup and wished her dreams would come true. Tears streamed down Yiyue’s face. After Ning Fang returned home, Lin Wei accidentally broke the faucet, and Ning fixed it. Then a call came from Lin Wei’s home, which she declined. Ning gave her some advice, but Lin got upset, saying he had no obligation to guide her. She said she would move out and pay rent, but Ning refused. He apologized and insisted she stay.

The next morning, Yiyue was about to leave. Everyone saw her off reluctantly, but suddenly they realized He Qiaoyan was missing, and he wasn’t at Auntie’s place either. Yiyue became anxious, worried he had abandoned Xiaobao, and rushed to find him. That’s when she learned He had discovered the truth about what happened. She found him, but he couldn’t process or accept the truth. Yiyue decided not to go abroad, choosing to stay and support him.

But He Qiaoyan rejected her and asked her not to come looking for him again. Knowing He Qiaoyan’s driving skills, Yiyue suspected that he couldn’t have caused the accident—there had to be something more. So she invited Wen Gu to help investigate. While staying at the He residence, Yiyue cooked and brought breakfast with Xiaobao to He, but he refused to see her. He couldn’t move past what had happened, and his negative emotions affected Yiyue.

But as a psychologist, Yiyue wouldn’t give up. She loved Qiaoyan and believed he could recover. Ning Fang went to see He Qiaoyan and told him he was going to confess his feelings to Yiyue, urging Qiaoyan to give up on her completely. But He was confident Yiyue wouldn’t agree. Ning didn’t care—he just wanted to express his heart. Ning Fang took Yiyue to their alma mater.

Episode 23 Recap

Ning Fang called Yiyue out to confess his feelings, but suddenly He Qiaoyan arrived and took her away. Ning ended up alone at the confession setup he had prepared for Yiyue. Lin Wei also came—she had helped set up the scene, but not for Yiyue; it was all to provoke He Qiaoyan. Ning took out his guitar, and he and Lin Wei sat on the grass singing together.

Yiyue and Qiaoyan went to school to find Xiaobao, only to learn that Xiaobao had refused to attend class and insisted on playing basketball outside all day. No matter what the teacher said, he wouldn’t listen. When He Qiaoyan saw Xiaobao, he thought of his older brother, recalling how he would play basketball with Xiaobao and cheat during games. Suddenly, Xiaobao called Qiaoyan “Dad. ” Qiaoyan was thrilled and overjoyed.

He played basketball with Xiaobao—this was the first time Xiaobao had called him Dad. Ning Fang and Lin Wei sat by the river drinking and reminiscing. Ning asked when her anxiety started, and learned that Lin Wei had long been under immense pressure. Even the awards she won in China were bought by her mother. Since last year, she hadn’t been able to draw a single design. Ning gently comforted her, encouraging her to follow her heart.

That night, Yiyue sat dazed, holding a photo of He Qiaoyan and his brother. Suddenly, He hugged her from behind and said he had thought it through and would listen to her. He had decided to try to recover his memories from that time. He was deeply grateful to her for staying and loving him. He promised to give happiness to her and Xiaobao.

He Qiaoyan then went to see Ning Fang, but only to tell him that Yiyue had always seen him as a friend and asked him not to cross the line. Ning replied that it was up to He himself. Qiaoyan promised again to bring happiness to Yiyue. Ning then asked how he planned to proceed with the investigation and introduced a senior skilled in hypnosis to help recover memories. Qiaoyan agreed to try.

Ning’s senior also learned that a former judge for the Jin Cui Award had been involved back then and gave He his contact. He Qiaoyan found Zhang, the driver from back then, and told him he remembered everything. But Zhang denied involvement, saying to go look for the real culprits. It was clear there was someone behind it all. He told Auntie that if he couldn’t recover his memory, he’d find the people in those memories.

Unfortunately, hypnosis didn’t work on him. Yang Ruowei had dinner with her mother, who tried to persuade her to come home. Ruowei refused. After her mother left, Wen Gu came to apologize, but Ruowei rejected it. Wen hugged her and took her to a place he had carefully decorated. They poured out their feelings to each other. Ruowei saw Wen’s sincerity, and they got together.

Yiyue went to pick up Xiaobao from school, but someone pulled her into a car from behind. Xiaobao caught it on video and sent it to He Qiaoyan, along with the license plate number. He chased after the kidnappers, but was driving too fast, and collided with a large truck. The three cars crashed. When He Qiaoyan woke up, he was in the hospital. The impact had restored all his memories. Fortunately, both he and Yiyue were safe.

It turned out the mastermind was someone from Aimon Company. His brother had discovered their financial loopholes, and they plotted the accident. They paid Zhang the driver, who told Aimon about the brake failure, helping them plan the crash. He Qiaoyan and Yiyue played Go and sneaked out to eat skewers. Yiyue said she hadn’t been this carefree in ages.

Episode 24 (Ending) Recap

Yiyue, Qiaoyan, and Xiaobao were playing basketball at the gym. Yiyue did a backward shot and hit Qiaoyan with the ball. Lying on the ground, he seemed to see his brother, who told him to take care of them. Xiaobao also said he hoped to always be with Mom and Dad. Lin Wei was kicked out of her home again and returned to Ning Fang’s. She showed him her design sketches.

Ning asked if it was a trench coat, which gave Lin new inspiration. She kept redrawing and refining until she finally completed it—her noodles even went cold. Ning made her another bowl and said that when she was doing what she loved, she truly glowed. Designing helped heal her heart, but Lin said it was Ning who healed her. Now it was her turn to help Ning move on. Ning agreed—it was time to look forward.

He Qiaoyan stayed up working late in the study and fell asleep at the desk. Yiyue watched him sleep, feeling happy. When Ning returned home, he learned Lin would soon be leaving for France, and they were reluctant to part. Yiyue and He Qiaoyan had already registered their marriage. He asked her to call him “husband,” but she jokingly called him “Old He. ” They teased each other.

He told her he had informed Director Huang that she would go to Germany, hoping she would pursue her dreams. Yiyue didn’t want to leave him and Xiaobao. He said he and Xiaobao would fly to visit her every month. They deliberately registered their marriage before she left. Yiyue had one condition—a wedding with a long, trailing gown. He agreed.

She even put on a bedsheet and role-played the wedding scene, only to trip over it, and they ended up kissing. The next day, He Qiaoyan officially returned to the He Group. His secretary was already waiting for him in the office. He was confident—only he could run the He Group properly. Ruowei and Wen Gu were watching a movie in their room when Chairman Wen came in. He secretly talked with Ruowei without Wen Gu hearing.

The next day, Wen Gu told his father he would stay with Ruowei forever, even giving up everything for her. They argued, then suddenly laughed—it turned out Chairman Wen and Ruowei had staged it to test Wen Gu’s resolve. That day, Yiyue was supposed to return. Qiaoyan and Xiaobao prepared a lot and went to pick her up. But she said there was a problem with the project and she had to transfer flights back to Germany.

Disappointed, they returned home—only to find Yiyue had already come home to surprise them. Yiyue and He Qiaoyan finally held their formal wedding. Xiaobao gave a heartfelt speech to his mom and dad. Everyone was overjoyed. After exchanging rings, Yiyue said her back was itchy and asked Qiaoyan to scratch it. She then said, “Thanks, bro. ” Qiaoyan retorted, “Thanks? Bro? ” and kissed her immediately. They kissed passionately as Yiyue’s parents teared up in joy.

Everyone was filled with happiness. As Yiyue tossed her bouquet, Ning Fang caught it—and Lin Wei appeared. Their eyes met. Ruowei and Wen Gu were also happily together, and Qiaoyan, Xiaobao, and Yiyue looked on lovingly.
