> Derailment Recap

Qi Lian has been following Jiang Xiaoyuan, claiming they are fellow townspeople, wanting to ensure she has a place to stay. To avoid exposure, Jiang Xiaoyuan decides to quickly shake him off but unintentionally runs into a dead end. No matter how she hides, she will be discovered. So, Jiang Xiaoyuan hides in the women's restroom, seizes the opportunity to climb out through the window, and escapes. Hungry for a long time, Jiang Xiaoyuan takes out the only two coins left on her, checks the price list on the wall, and orders two-thirds of a bowl of white rice.

Qi Lian never gives up searching for Xu Jingyang. Upon accidentally encountering Jiang Xiaoyuan eating plain rice in a destitute state, he tasks someone with investigating what happened to her in Chongqing. Jiang Xiaoyuan, a wealthy heiress, eating plain rice, never thought hunger could be so unbearable. Thinking about finding a job, Jiang Xiaoyuan witnesses a robbery. Once again, Qi Lian descends from the sky to rescue her, but she scolds him for his trouble. Ignoring her, Qi Lian gives her some money and advises her to find a place to stay quickly. Tearful, Jiang Xiaoyuan dislikes this kind of charity, but Qi Lian is right—without his help, she wouldn't survive the night.

Qi Lian brings Jiang Xiaoyuan to a hotel. The two remain silent throughout the journey. Before leaving, Jiang Xiaoyuan asks Qi Lian how to repay the money, and he tells her to call her dad's number. The two hundred yuan Qi Lian gave her is just enough for a night in a standard room, excluding breakfast. Jiang Xiaoyuan runs to an internet cafe to apply for a job as a network manager. However, she takes the wrong turn and ends up at a live-streaming anchor recruitment event. She doesn't stay in the hotel arranged by Qi Lian, causing him to search frantically.

Relying on her attractive face, Jiang Xiaoyuan becomes a network manager, eating instant noodles, and dreams during a daze. The next morning at 8 o'clock, Jiang Xiaoyuan finishes work, and her place of residence is a storage room behind the internet cafe. Qi Lian has searched all the nearby internet cafes but hasn't found Jiang Xiaoyuan. Unaware that she has entered an illegal internet cafe, Jiang Xiaoyuan, with the two hundred yuan given by Qi Lian, eats a bowl of wonton soup, buys some essentials, and purchases a phone charger. This phone is the only thing that traveled with Jiang Xiaoyuan when she crossed over, and she firmly believes that through it, she can contact her original world. After so long, she truly misses home. When the phone is turned on, she still can't reach her father, but a person claiming to be an uncle says her dad had a sudden cerebral infarction and needs surgery funds. Disregarding the scam, Jiang Xiaoyuan is found by Qi Lian. In Qi Lian's eyes, it's strange for Jiang Xiaoyuan to pretend not to recognize him after six years, but only Jiang Xiaoyuan knows that no one can help her.

In the following days, Jiang Xiaoyuan lives on five yuan worth of wonton soup each day, working as a network manager in an internet cafe, experiencing days of homelessness. Qi Lian is constantly worried about her and quietly watches over her. Until today, when Jiang Xiaoyuan was touched inappropriately by thugs in the internet cafe, she fought back, threatened the boss to settle her wages, and finally received a three hundred yuan salary. Jiang Xiaoyuan immediately goes to Qi Lian to repay the money, following the address he provided and arriving at a certain house.
