My Wife Episode 18 Recap
> My Wife Recap
At the company's anniversary party, Xu Kexin danced with Ren Yiming. Shi Yue couldn't stand Xu Kexin and glared at her the whole time, while Chen Shanhai smiled knowingly as he watched the situation unfold. Ren Fei arrived at the party and saw Xu Kexin dancing with Ren Yiming. She asked Wen Hao about Xu Kexin's background and was delighted to hear that she was Shi Yue's rival. Shi Yue couldn't stand it anymore and directly approached them. Ren Yiming pulled Shi Yue aside and asked her to go home first. Shi Yue protested, saying that he wanted to abandon her and spend time with Shen An'an and their daughter. In order to prevent him from seeing Xinyi, she deliberately dropped the cake that Ren Yiming had brought for her on the ground. Seeing the shattered cake on the ground, Ren Yiming couldn't help but push Shi Yue away. He had promised Xinyi that he wouldn't let her down again, but now even the cake was gone, and he feared he would disappoint Xinyi once more.
Xinyi fell asleep waiting for her father. Shen An'an sat beside her, memorizing her lines for a program. Thinking about Xinyi's comment that Lin Yao was lonely, Shen An'an cut a piece of cake and went to Lin Yao's ward. Shen An'an and Lin Yao talked about dumplings, and Shen An'an mentioned that if they weren't in the hospital, she would have made dumplings for Xinyi to eat. Lin Yao explained the significance of eating dumplings and how it symbolizes change by sharing the historical background.
After putting down the cake, Lin Yao gathered the courage to tell Shen An'an that if she could stand by his side, he would never let her walk alone. He then embraced Shen An'an and expressed his feelings for her. Lin Yao knew that Shen An'an would reject him. He understood that she had many concerns, so he told her to go ahead and do what she wanted. He simply wanted to confess his feelings. At that moment, fireworks bloomed outside the window. Shen An'an watched the colorful fireworks, mirroring her mood, and agreed to celebrate Xinyi's birthday with Lin Yao next year.
In the morning, Chen Shanhai invited Ren Yiming to ride bicycles together. He told Ren Yiming the reason for calling him out and confessed that he had also had a very happy family before, but he messed it up. However, Ren Yiming's situation was worse than his own. Chen Shanhai told Ren Yiming that he intended to make him leave the company. Now that everyone in the company and their business partners knew about his personal matters, it was not only to save the company's face but also to make Shi Yue leave him. Once Ren Yiming lost his job, Shi Yue would leave him too.
Chen Shanhai also called Shi Yue and gave her the probation assessment form, informing her that she didn't pass the probation period. Shi Yue was dissatisfied with the company's evaluation of her, and Chen Shanhai reminded her not to be too self-centered. He also informed her about Ren Yiming's impending resignation. Wen Hao asked Ren Yiming why he hadn't broken up with Shi Yue yet, and Ren Yiming said that leaving her now would mean he was irresponsible to her. Wen Hao looked at Ren Yiming, disappointed in his lack of determination, and scolded him loudly, saying that it was his retribution and his actions had been very disappointing. Shi Yue came out of the company and overheard their conversation, feeling very uncomfortable.
To ensure smooth live broadcasts in the future, Liang Yuan invited Shen An'an to her home for a meeting. Shen An'an noticed that Liang Yuan was sick, so she brewed ginger tea for her. Shen An'an was in a different state compared to her usual self during the previous live broadcasts. Liang Yuan asked her about her concerns and the reasons behind it. Shen An'an confessed that many of the ingredients used last time were molds, but she wanted to express her cooking mood sincerely, not just as self-encouragement but also as a genuine gesture to everyone.
After losing his job, Ren Yiming prepared to terminate the lease and find a cheap house online to save expenses. Shi Yue, knowing that both of them were unemployed but still spending money recklessly, started arguing with him. Shi Yue didn't care about it and demanded that Ren Yiming get the house back. In any case, he had to take responsibility for himself. After work, Shen An'an stayed behind at the company to finish her work, and Lin Yao saw her and helped her complete it.
Shen An'an brought Xinyi to Starry Talent for a program recording. Liang Yuan instructed the staff on the details of their work and asked them to listen to Shen An'an's opinions more. Shen An'an was very nervous during her first recording and forgot her lines. With encouragement from Liang Yuan, she successfully completed the recording. The program received a good response as soon as it aired.
When Ren Yiming returned from a job interview, he didn't bring anything for Shi Yue to eat. Shi Yue blamed him for it, and Ren Yiming became angry. He was busy looking for work while Shi Yue refused to do any housework. Ren Yiming asked Shi Yue to pack her bags as they couldn't afford the rent anymore. Shi Yue was dissatisfied and unwilling to endure hardships with Ren Yiming. Ren Yiming said she could leave anytime if she didn't want to be with him.
After the program aired, Shen An'an gained many fans. Even at the car dealership where she worked, fans would come to buy cars because of her. Shen An'an used her influence to expand her resources, and Lin Yao gave her a raise. However, it didn't come with a bonus due to the short duration of the project. Shen An'an couldn't believe the amount of her salary and was extremely happy. Lin Yao told her that she deserved it, which made Shen An'an very grateful.
As soon as Shen An'an left the office, Ren Fei hurriedly came to tell her about Xinyi's fight at school. Xinyi had dirtied a classmate's pencil case and made the classmate bleed. Shen An'an tried to ask Xinyi about it, but she refused to talk. Ren Fei privately told Shen An'an the reason behind Xinyi throwing the pencil case. She found out that Xinyi had a conflict because a classmate said she didn't have a father. Shen An'an bought a new stationery set and asked Xinyi to apologize, but she refused. Xinyi already knew that her parents were divorced. Shen An'an realized that divorce had a significant impact on children, but she still had to work to support her family.
In the evening, Shen An'an searched online for the latest updates on Xinyi's situation and came across Zhao Yimei, a psychological counselor, who happened to be Lin Yao's mother. Shen An'an decided to seek advice from Lin's mother.
