Before going to the airport, Gan Yang deliberately sent Ding Zhitong to work. At the high-speed rail station, seeing so many people, Gan Yang offered to take a taxi, but Ding Zhitong refused. She thought that if she had to take a taxi every time, her monthly salary wouldn't be enough.

Gan Yang didn't insist, but seeing Ding Zhitong being squeezed on the way to work without even a seat and still having to respond to work matters, he felt distressed. After watching Ding Zhitong enter her workplace, Gan Yang dialed the number of the real estate agent from last time. Song Mingmei was about to go for her internship.

Before leaving, she bought a tie for Qin Chang and asked him to ride a bicycle to take her to the bus stop at the school gate. Gan Yang was worried that Ding Zhitong wouldn’t eat well, so he always brought her food, but Ding Zhitong would always transfer the money back to him. This made Gan Yang feel uncomfortable, though he never blamed her.

Every weekend, Gan Yang would go to the rented apartment and decorate and paint by himself, just like how Ding Zhitong had imagined it. When he was hungry, he’d eat instant noodles, but thinking about how Ding Zhitong would one day live in her dream place made him smile unconsciously. When Ding Zhitong got off work, she saw Gan Yang’s image on a large screen and became curious.

As she approached to take a closer look, Gan Yang appeared from behind. He had prepared a large bouquet of flowers for her and took her to the apartment he rented. However, Ding Zhitong strongly opposed it and didn’t want to spend Gan Yang’s money. Gan Yang refused to accept her rejection because he was her boyfriend and was willing to give for her. Ding Zhitong firmly insisted that she wouldn’t live there and even refused to eat.

She emphasized that Gan Yang should sublet the apartment. Gan Yang stubbornly refused and, to protect her pride, suggested they split the rent evenly. But Ding Zhitong believed the biggest difference between them was that she couldn’t even afford half the rent. They ended up having an argument, both couldn’t sleep that night. Ding Zhitong looked up rental information and found that the apartment was very expensive, which made her feel even more heartbroken.

While running, Gan Yang thought about what Ding Zhitong said, which put him in an even worse mood but also made him run harder. Ding Zhitong, on the other hand, kept yawning at work due to lack of sleep. Qin Yu had to drag her to drink coffee and shared her own troubles—her place was soaked by rain, and the landlord wanted to renovate, leaving her with nowhere to live.

Ding Zhitong suddenly thought of subletting Gan Yang’s apartment to her and called Gan Yang. He thought she was still angry and wouldn’t talk to him, so when he heard she wanted the key to the apartment, he was overjoyed, thinking she had come around. Xu Chenxi overheard the conversation between Ding Zhitong and Qin Yu and deliberately approached Qin Yu to get information.

After confirming that Ding Zhitong really intended to sublet the apartment to Qin Yu, she immediately told Gan Yang. Just as Qin Yu and Ding Zhitong arrived to view the apartment, Gan Yang rushed over and stopped the sublease. The two argued again over the matter. Gan Yang believed that Ding Zhitong refused to accept his kindness and saw that she was afraid of something.

He asked what she was afraid of, but Ding Zhitong denied being scared and falsely claimed she simply didn’t want to go through with it. The two had another falling-out, and Gan Yang left disappointed. Ding Zhitong went to find Song Mingmei and drank a lot. She cried bitterly, worried that she and Gan Yang wouldn’t make it, because she didn’t want money to cause conflicts.

She had once witnessed family members fall apart and end up in court over money and didn’t want that to happen between her and Gan Yang. Besides, she felt that all of Gan Yang’s money came from his parents, which made it even more inappropriate to use it. She didn’t want their relationship to become complicated—she just wanted a simple love. Song Mingmei asked if Ding Zhitong liked Gan Yang.

Ding Zhitong couldn’t help but cry and nodded repeatedly, admitting that she did like him. But she didn’t want to tell Gan Yang about it. Song Mingmei understood that Ding Zhitong wanted to show only her perfect side and hurried to comfort her and drink with her. After returning home, Gan Yang couldn’t sleep either. Wang Yi advised Gan Yang to give both sides a way out, otherwise, he’d be the one suffering.

This also proved that Ding Zhitong liked Gan Yang for who he was, not for his money, which was a good thing. But Gan Yang said he just felt heartache for her—he only wanted her to eat well, live well, not be so exhausted, and not have to squeeze into the subway and waste so much time commuting. Wang Yi urged Gan Yang to get a good night’s sleep and call Ding Zhitong the next day to clear things up.

While printing documents with Jia Fan, the printer suddenly broke down. Jia Fan flew into a rage and told Ding Zhitong to watch over the printer downstairs and bring up the documents as soon as they were printed, not allowing anyone else to see them. Just as Ding Zhitong was carrying a large stack of documents upstairs, they fell to the ground. She happened to run into Feng Sheng, who offered to help, but she refused.

Jia Fan arrived at that moment, saw what was happening, and impatiently urged Ding Zhitong to hurry up. Feng Sheng was displeased with Jia Fan’s attitude. After the meeting, he quietly placed the folder under the conference table on purpose, hoping Jia Fan would be reprimanded. Seeing Jia Fan carrying the documents out, Dai Bola asked whether he had checked the quantity and if there were any missing.

Since Jia Fan hadn’t printed them himself, he didn’t know what to say. Just then, Ding Zhitong appeared behind him and answered in his place, saying the documents had been counted and there were nine sets. After Dai Bola was satisfied and left, Ding Zhitong handed the documents to Jia Fan. Xu Chenxi was dissatisfied with how Ding Zhitong treated Gan Yang.

She felt that Gan Yang had worked so hard and yet Ding Zhitong wanted to sublet the apartment, which made her unworthy of Gan Yang’s affection. Only then did Ding Zhitong realize that every week on his day off, Gan Yang had been personally renovating the apartment, just to give her a dream room. She immediately ran to the apartment to see it.

Every part of it matched the joking ideas she had once shared, but now Gan Yang had made them all come true. Every corner showed signs of Gan Yang’s hard work. Ding Zhitong burst into tears and sent messages and called him, but his phone was already turned off. Helpless, Ding Zhitong had no choice but to call Wang Yi.
