Before the wedding, Tang Wei took the initiative to follow tradition and comb her daughter Xu Jiajia’s hair, feeling a surge of emotion as she realized her daughter had grown up and was about to get married. At that moment, Li Meng personally arrived to give Xu Jiajia a gift, and the three women spent the night before the wedding drinking and chatting.
During their conversation, Xu Jiajia mentioned that Xu Junhao wanted her to quit her job after they got married, which drew strong opposition from Li Meng. Using herself as an example, Li Meng advised Xu Jiajia not to sacrifice her youth and dreams for the sake of family. However, Tang Wei held a different opinion, arguing that balancing a career and family is exhausting and that trying to be a career woman while managing household responsibilities could be overwhelming.
Watching the two debate endlessly, Xu Jiajia concluded that both were envious of the path they didn’t choose. Elsewhere, Chen Shiyu ran into Xu Jianming at a quiet bar and brought up Tang Wei’s Tianqin Entertainment. He suggested that if Xu Jianming agreed to appear as a guest on one of their shows, it would greatly benefit her company’s performance. After a long discussion, Xu Jianming began reflecting on his own complicated and uncertain marriage.
Moved by their conversation, he unexpectedly agreed to participate in the program. Xu Jianming confided in Chen Shiyu, admitting that he often overlooked the most important people around him, taking their efforts for granted. Despite all these years, he still felt like a child in many ways. That night, Li Meng sat alone in her room, crying uncontrollably in her drunken state. She confessed to Xu Jianming her long-suppressed frustrations.
Li Meng admitted that she loved Xu Jianming deeply, but he had never truly seen her in his life. After much thought, she decided she could no longer sustain their marriage. Meanwhile, Tang Wei danced freely in the streets until Chen Shiyu appeared and carried her on his back to take her home. Soon, the day of Xu Junhao and Xu Jiajia’s wedding arrived.
Ah Zhen helped Xu Zhiqiang straighten his tie and suit, and the two dressed meticulously for the occasion. The wedding venue was bustling with energy, and guests arrived one after another. Xu Junle took on the role of videographer, capturing the couple’s sweetest and happiest moments. Under the gaze of everyone present, Xu Jiajia walked slowly down the aisle, arm in arm with her father. Listening to Xu Junhao’s heartfelt vows, they exchanged rings and officially became husband and wife.
The crowd was moved and offered their blessings. The wedding lasted until the evening. In a private moment, Mai Youge told Xu Junle that she was about to leave Macau and wanted to take the opportunity to express her feelings. However, Xu Junle encouraged her to be patient, believing they should wait for the right time for them. Touched by his words, Mai Youge embraced him tightly.
Meanwhile, Chen Jiahui learned that the race car drivers were checking out of their hotels, signaling that Han Junhao was about to leave Macau. Isabella urged Chen Jiahui to seize the opportunity, saying that love meant being together. However, Chen Jiahui remained cautious and reserved, knowing their biggest issue was their inability to compromise. She decided to leave things to fate, believing that if they were meant to be, they would meet again someday.
At the wedding reception, everyone drank and celebrated joyously. Xu Zhiqiang raised his glass to give a toast, delivering a heartfelt and moving speech. Inspired by the moment, Xu Jianming also stood up, slightly tipsy, and jokingly said that he had entrusted his most beloved daughter to a man he didn’t know very well, leaving him with mixed feelings. Even so, Xu Jianming acknowledged that Xu Junhao was a good man.
He reminded the young couple that marriage isn’t just about love; it’s about enduring the monotony of daily life. He advised them to never stop going on dates, never stop embracing, and never forget to say "I love you. "As the music began to play, Xu Junhao led Xu Jiajia to the dance floor, surrounded by cheers. Xu Zhiqiang and Ah Zhen, Xu Jianming and Li Meng, and others all joined in, dancing joyfully.
Only Chen Jiahui stood aside, looking forlorn. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a familiar melody and voice. Turning around, she saw Han Junhao singing her favorite song. At that moment, all their past misunderstandings melted away.
