Lin Shuang searched for jobs everywhere but faced rejection at every turn. She was determined to keep sending out resumes. Guoguo joined an ice hockey training but was discriminated against by the male players. She felt discouraged, but Lin Shuang encouraged her not to give up, eventually bringing a smile to Guoguo's face.
Lin Shuang invited Xuan Zi and old classmates for dinner. When her old classmates learned that Lin Shuang was a full-time housewife, they expressed sympathy for her. Lin Shuang decided to re-enter the workforce and sought their advice on future career planning. They believed it would be challenging since Lin Shuang had been away from the workplace for too long, struggling to keep up with the trends. Nevertheless, they agreed to help her find a suitable job.
Lin Shuang drove to the Ark Company and met a programmer from Jingrui Company who mistook her for a ride-sharing driver. Lin Shuang noticed his urgency and gave him a ride while inquiring about internet companies' situations. When Lin Shuang returned home, she found Wei Ming and Guoguo happily playing games. Wei Ming tried to be friendly, claiming that he had taken Guoguo to an amusement park today. Lin Shuang tried to avoid him.
Wei Ming and Guoguo baked a cake together and posted pictures on social media. Lin Shuang forced a smile and cooperated with him. Lin Shuang went to the gym for a workout, and Jiang Xi posted pictures on social media, mocking Lin Shuang with a photo of her family of three, appearing loving. Lin Shuang reminded Jiang Xi not to have any illusions about Wei Ming, saying that he only loved himself. Jiang Xi believed that she and Wei Ming were true love and agreed to use this opportunity to verify it.
The head office sent Mr. Ling to the Ark Company as the general manager. Wei Ming's social media posts about taking his daughter Guoguo to the amusement park caught Mr. Ling's attention, and he actively discussed experiences of playing with children. This made Jiang Xi feel uncomfortable, and she repeatedly urged Wei Ming to divorce, but he always made excuses.
Jiang Xi returned to her rented house and received an invitation from Wei Ming, which she coldly rejected. She had a video call with her mother and Jiang Hai. Jiang Hai lied about working at a design institute, and her mother asked Jiang Xi for 150,000 yuan to renovate their old house. Jiang Xi was furious and considered exposing Jiang Hai's unemployment, but he desperately tried to please her. Mr. Fang invited Jiang Xi to a KTV, and Jiang Xi learned from Wei Ming that taking this order from Mr. Fang could bring in a significant sum of money. She wasted no time and went to meet Mr. Fang.
Jiang Xi was eager to sign a contract with Mr. Fang, but he suspected her motives and pressured her to drink. Jiang Xi consumed a lot of alcohol but still insisted on the contract. Mr. Fang agreed to sign with Ark Company the next day. Jiang Xi, overwhelmed by the alcohol, ended up vomiting profusely in the bathroom. Mr. Fang followed her and forcibly pulled her into his car. Jiang Xi managed to jump out of the car, and Lin Shuang happened to pass by. Lin Shuang drove Jiang Xi back home and listened to her complaints as Jiang Xi vented her frustration. Lin Shuang took care of Jiang Xi and made a hangover soup before leaving.
Jiang Xi woke up early the next morning, called Wei Ming to request a day off, and then rushed to get ready for the contract signing with Mr. Fang. Jiang Hai bought instant noodles and planned to cook them with radish soup. Jiang Xi learned that Lin Shuang had brought her home last night and even made a hangover radish soup for her.
