Ever since Gu Yi arranged to extend her stay with Liang Daiwen for another month, her mood had been at an all-time high. Meanwhile, Guan Xingxin finally resigned from all her positions at the company. She even bought a large cake, cut into 999 slices, to celebrate her "happy breakup" with each of her colleagues. Guan Xingxin remarked that she used to just hold a title at the company and rely on her fans to stay relevant.

But now, her fans had grown to dislike her, and her account was suspended. She realized it was more important to be true to herself. While Gu Yi was secretly doing other things during a meal, her supervisor caught her. Zhang Junjie instructed Gu Yi to work with Xu Guanrui to go over the company's design content. Xu Guanrui shared that he had once dated someone but didn’t appreciate her enough in his younger years, something he now somewhat regretted.

Gu Yi hadn’t expected that such a handsome teacher like Xu would have such a touching first love. Yu Dule was determined to pursue Guan Xingxin. Gu Yi thought he was a bit overconfident but still gave him some advice, suggesting he use a “man’s approach” to win her over. She felt that she and Yu Dule were both on a long journey, and if only she could easily win over Liang Daiwen, that would be perfect.

Gu Yi, the type to “conquer through actions,” quickly began researching online about guys, wanting to fit in more. Liang Daiwen now visited Gu Yi anytime he felt hungry; his routine before had been very simple, and his meals were often irregular. He shared that the most painful thing he experienced was losing his mother, and his biggest regret was wasting the time of the girls he had dated.

Gu Yi suddenly sensed that Liang Daiwen might have a lot of hidden feelings. Liang Daiwen turned the question around on her, saying he wanted to know her answers too, for fairness. Gu Yi admitted that despite years of performing stand-up, she still hadn’t achieved true honesty. She felt that she and Liang Daiwen had built a foundation of trust. Liang Daiwen agreed and gave her a fake smile in response.

Gu Yi placed her hand on his face, encouraging him to smile, but he immediately turned away and ran off. Gu Yi found him peculiar and wondered if he disliked her. She urged Liang Daiwen to make some good friends, hinting at herself, but he responded unexpectedly. Gu Yi wrote up a plan and posted it by the door, hoping to influence Liang Daiwen positively. Guan Xingxin advised Gu Yi to pursue him using a “man’s approach.

” Gu Yi stated that, although she really liked Liang Daiwen, she wouldn’t lose herself for him. And so, the two of them began their daily routine together. Gu Yi wanted to help Liang Daiwen engage with the world around him, hoping that spicy foods might help stir up his emotions. Xu Guanrui noticed that Gu Yi could now easily talk about her favorite things with him.

The conversation between Gu Yi and Xu Guanrui flowed naturally, so much so that Gu Yi missed Liang Daiwen’s call. Xu Guanrui felt a bit disappointed as he watched her leave with Liang Daiwen, given he had developed strong feelings for her. Gu Yi had originally planned to go camping with Liang Daiwen, but her mother showed up unexpectedly, and Liang Daiwen seemed a little upset by the change in plans. Gu Yi noticed he might be showing some emotion.

Liang Daiwen offered to pick up Gu Yi’s mom for her. During the drive, Gu Yi’s mother kept urging him on, which visibly made Liang Daiwen tense, and he started to drive faster. Seeing this, Gu Yi placed her hand on his shoulder, and only then did Liang Daiwen regain his composure.
