> Walk Into Your Memory Recap
Long Haoqian picked An Ning up, instructing her to buckle her seatbelt without revealing their destination. Meanwhile, Ma Manager, excitedly planning her wedding with Gong Chen, asked him whether they should have an oriental or a western ceremony, or even two. Gong Chen, flustered, tried to explain modern views on marriage compared to conventional ways, eventually suggesting a combination of styles. Ma Manager was thrilled by his "creativity," imagining a mix-and-match attire.
Long Haoqian drove An Ning to a secluded spot and confronted her, asking why she hadn't told him about the pressure his mother had put on her. He stated that as her boyfriend, he should be the one to deal with such issues, questioning her trust in him. An Ning reassured him that she had settled everything peacefully and explained that her meetings with his mother were calm, and they had simply clarified their stances.
Long Haoqian’s mother disapproved of their relationship, but An Ning made it clear that she could look after her boyfriend and his mother's disapproval wouldn't affect her. Long Haoqian, seeing An Ning in high spirits, was relieved. He had brought her there to watch a meteor shower, which turned out to be a cloudy night. He then playfully pretended the car ran out of fuel to keep her with him longer.
He confiscated her phone, took a picture of them together, setting it as her lock screen as a reminder of their relationship. He also changed his contact name in her phone to "My Dearest," which An Ning found too mushy and insisted on changing back to his name. Later that evening, while brushing her teeth at home, An Ning unexpectedly dry-heaved.
She became alarmed when she realized her period was late and, after checking her phone, began to suspect she might be pregnant. The next day, An Ning’s mother, a kind woman, asked An Ning to deliver some emergency financial assistance to Xia Tian's mother. Upon meeting Xia Tian’s mother, An Ning realized there were underlying reasons for her estrangement from Xia Tian. An Ning went to the hospital for a check-up.
The doctor advised her to avoid cold and spicy food and reduce stress. Initially, An Ning was convinced she was pregnant, feeling a mix of nervousness and excitement. However, the doctor clarified that she was experiencing an endocrine disorder, encouraging her to consider having children soon, as she was at an ideal age for a quick recovery. An Ning felt a twinge of disappointment upon hearing the truth.
She then vividly recalled the night she and Long Haoqian got drunk, remembering they had only been drinking, singing, and playing games, even stripping off clothes as a game penalty, leading her to realize that nothing intimate had actually happened between them. Meanwhile, William finally obtained an address, though unsure of its accuracy, and decided to pursue it. However, he was called back by his director just as he arrived at the location.
Long Haoqian was furious when An Ning once again didn't answer his calls, claiming she didn't hear her phone ring. He presented her with a new phone and, to everyone's surprise at Long Teng, publicly announced his relationship with An Ning, eliciting a frantic pinch from Ma Manager to Gong Chen. Moments later, Long Haoqian pulled An Ning out of the kitchen during work hours.
An Ning, imagining a romantic kiss from her "dominant CEO" boyfriend, was surprised to find Yi Mingjun also present. Long Haoqian playfully teased her about her thoughts, stating they had urgent business. At home, Xia Tian's mother suffered from intermittent pain, taking emergency medication while looking at her daughter's photos, her heart filled with sorrow.
While Xia Tian was on set rehearsing lines, Yi Mingjun and Long Haoqian arrived suddenly, informing her that her mother had been admitted to the hospital again. Xia Tian rushed to the hospital with them. A nurse gravely told her she was "too late," momentarily devastating Xia Tian.
Just then, her mother’s voice called out her name, and she rushed into the hospital room, revealing that the entire situation was a setup orchestrated by Yi Mingjun, An Ning, and Long Haoqian. They explained that Xia Tian’s mother, though not her biological parent, had raised her as her own daughter for over two decades. The 200,000 yuan loan she took previously was to settle with the unscrupulous director An Ning had assaulted.
She wished for Xia Tian to marry a wealthy man, hoping her daughter wouldn't suffer the same hardships she had. Through this emotional intervention, Xia Tian and her mother finally expressed their true feelings and resolved their misunderstandings. Yi Mingjun also promised Xia Tian's mother that he would take good care of her, ensuring she received the best medical care for her surgery. Long Haoqian drove An Ning home, noticing her attempts to hide him from her mother.
He realized An Ning's mother, whom An Ning often affectionately referred to as "Mdm. Cauliflower," was unaware of his existence. An Ning explained she hadn't figured out how to tell her family, leading to another playful argument between the couple. Later, Long Haoqian returned home and began researching ways to win over his future mother-in-law.
He confessed to Yi Mingjun that he found dealing with An Ning's mother (the legendary mother-in-law) challenging, despite her newfound kindness towards him after the reconciliation. Ma Manager, still resentful about Long Haoqian and An Ning's relationship, attempted to mock An Ning. However, An Ning saw through her facade and turned the tables, revealing Ma Manager's secret relationship with Gong Chen, leaving Ma Manager speechless.
Xia Tian continued filming at the Long Teng Hotel, and Yi Mingjun frequently visited her, often accompanied by Long Haoqian. This gave William an opportunity to meet Long Haoqian. William observed that Long Haoqian was not an easy man for any ordinary woman to "tame," expressing quiet concern for his sister Min’er, who admired Long Haoqian.
