Jin Secretary Episode 5 Recap

Jin Xi'er refused to work overtime, so Lan Chen personally went to her home. He explained that the banquet, where Zeng, the CEO of Li Huai International, would also be present, was the kind of event a secretary should attend. Jin Xi'er accompanied Lan Chen to the dinner. Considering her attire, Lan Chen took her to a private tailor. After changing into her evening gown, Jin Xi'er even dazzled herself. She quietly approached Lan Chen, who couldn't control the racing of his heart when he saw her.

Jin Xi'er walked in with her arm linked with Lan Chen's, and everyone was curious about her background, which fueled jealousy among other women. Lan Chen's grandfather, Lan Ren, appeared via video call to thank everyone for attending the gathering. The Lan family and the Gu family had a long-standing relationship, and now, the grandson Lan Chen and the Gu family's granddaughter Gu Qianqian were both of marriageable age. He hoped that the next generation would carry on the family's traditions and add to the family. Gu Qianqian glared at Jin Xi'er with hostility, but Jin Xi'er hadn't seen Zeng, the CEO of Li Huai International, and she asked Lan Chen about the situation.

Lan Chen's mother asked Gu Qianqian to be by Lan Chen's side, joking about how they used to get upset when they didn't sit together as children. Lan Chen explained that he initially thought this was a negotiation meeting with Li Huai International but didn't expect it to be a family gathering. To express his gratitude, he raised his glass for a toast.

Jin Xi'er didn't care about the onlookers and started eating. Lan Chen announced his romantic feelings, not wanting any misunderstandings. He revealed that his love interest was Jin Xi'en.
