When Du Man was walking Song Cong home, she saw her mother standing outside the door. Her expression immediately became serious. Sensing that something was wrong, Song Cong quickly returned to his own room. Du Man’s mother had brought her some fruit, but their conversation was distant and awkward. Her mother had left when she was very young, and this time, she had only come back to ask for money.
Du Man was heartbroken—she had thought her mother came to see her out of concern! She cried out in agony, her voice hoarse. Next door, Song Cong heard the commotion and grew worried. He only opened his door after hearing Du Man’s mother leave. He found Du Man standing alone in the hallway, trying to catch her breath, her face full of sorrow. They went for a walk in the park.
Du Man told him that this was the first time she had seen her mother in over ten years. Her family had been poor when she was a child. Every time she passed a claw machine, she wanted to play, but her mother always told her they were scams. One time, she cried so hard that her mother finally promised to take her to play on her birthday. But before her birthday arrived, her mother was already gone.
Du Man cried every day, wanting to go find her mother. Her father took her to a claw machine and told her, "If you can catch a toy, I'll take you to find your mom. "Song Cong took out two coins, offering to let her try again. But instead of playing, Du Man walked over to a nearby vending machine and bought a bottle of cola. Things that are out of reach no longer matter—it's better to get something useful instead.
Four years of university were about to come to an end, and soon it was time for their graduation photos. Jing Qichi had been busy with his project launch, so Chen Huan'er didn’t expect him to show up. Still, she felt a little sad on the day of the photo shoot. Just as the camera shutter clicked, Jing Qichi suddenly rushed into the frame and lifted Chen Huan'er into the air.
It turned out that the project had taken a turn for the better—thanks to Engineer Cai’s help, it had successfully launched. Chen Huan'er was accepted as a graduate student under her ideal advisor, and Jing Qichi’s project was successfully launched. But during their meal, Jing Qichi seemed preoccupied. The headquarters wanted him to transfer with his project and officially join the company. The problem was—the headquarters was in Beijing.
If he really went, it wouldn’t just be three months of long distance. It would be three years. Jing Qichi hesitated. Chen Huan'er decided to go with him to Beijing to see what it was like. At the company, Jing Qichi had a one-on-one meeting with Gong Bo in the conference room, while Chen Huan'er waited downstairs for a long time. Jing Qichi realized that the headquarters’ planning and development were indeed far more advanced.
If he worked at the headquarters, Yangwu would also have a better future. After the meeting, they arranged to have hotpot with Du Man and Song Cong. During the meal, Du Man suddenly asked, "So, when are you two getting married? "Caught off guard, Chen Huan'er blushed. That night, Chen Huan'er and Jing Qichi stayed at Du Man and Song Cong’s place. In separate rooms, they both ended up gossiping about each other's relationships.
Talking about whether Jing Qichi should move to Beijing, he still felt conflicted. He was worried that Chen Huan'er would be sad. Chen Huan'er, on the other hand, was worried because they had never been apart for such a long distance before. That night, Du Man received an apology message from her mother. Despite everything, her soft heart gave in, and she still sent her some money.
After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Huan'er decided that she wanted Jing Qichi to go. If he stayed in Wu’an, he would definitely have regrets. And she didn’t want those regrets to be because of her. When they returned to Wu’an, Chen Huan'er helped Jing Qichi pack his luggage. Watching her, Jing Qichi was suddenly reminded of how Lin Yifan used to help Jing Liqiang pack before his missions.
Jing Qichi moved to Beijing and temporarily stayed at Song Cong’s place. Zhou Ye and Fu Ying also came to Beijing with him. However, during the company meeting, Gong Bo’s proposal was completely different from what Jing Qichi had originally planned. Jing Qichi didn’t want to go against the original vision of Yangwu. Gong Bo gave him two weeks to convince the decision-making team—otherwise, he would have to leave. Chen Huan'er officially became Professor Qiu’s graduate student.
After her first visit to the lab, she ran into Tian Chi. They were in the same research group. Tian Chi told her that he hoped she wouldn’t feel uncomfortable around him because of the past.
