Such a Good Love Episode 21 Recap
> Such a Good Love Recap
Summer 2012, Beijing. Zhou Shui and Dai Daji couldn’t calm down after the departure of Wang Jingshu and Yaling. Suddenly, Dai Daji was determined to make money, to earn enough to live with dignity and never end up like them. Over the years, Zhou Shui and Dai Daji had also built up a solid network in the industry. Together, they successfully founded Geywai Cultural Advertising Company. Dai Daji became the CEO, and Zhou Shui was the sole contracted director.
That year, they moved back near the CCTV building. Under Dai Daji’s leadership, the company had been running for three years. From signing their first contract to buying a car, three years had passed in the blink of an eye. In 2016, Dai Daji’s mother came to Beijing again. Dai Daji picked her up while juggling phone calls. Before her mother could scold her, Dai Daji pulled out the keys to a Mercedes-Benz.
The place where Zhou Shui and Dai Daji lived was very luxurious, and they even had a housekeeper cleaning daily. At the mall, Zhou Shui let Dai Daji’s mother pick out whatever she liked without restraint. But just as they were heading into a phone meeting, Dai Daji’s mother went shopping on her own and took a liking to a handbag that cost thirty thousand yuan. To her surprise, Wang Jingshu appeared and bought it for her as a gift.
It was the first time Zhou Shui and Dai Daji had seen Wang Jingshu in three years. While Zhou Shui was busy taking photos of her mother, Dai Daji added Wang Jingshu on WeChat and transferred her the money for the bag. Wang Jingshu firmly refused to accept it. After the photos were taken, Dai Daji’s mother returned the bag, saying that she simply couldn’t accept it.
Wang Jingshu then left in a Rolls-Royce worth several million, leaving Dai Daji’s mother stunned. Over the next few days, Zhou Shui tried all kinds of ways to make Dai Daji’s mother happy, but she still wasn’t at ease. She set her eyes on a property and dragged Zhou Shui and Dai Daji to go view it. The down payment was 1. 5 million yuan. But Zhou Shui and Dai Daji still couldn’t afford that amount.
Dai Daji’s mother suggested Zhou Shui call his parents so the two families could discuss together. Autumn 2024, Beijing. Dong Leyi and her new boyfriend were out house hunting. As they were discussing buying a car and a house, Dai Daji happened to pass by and overheard their meticulous calculations and plans. She was surprised.
Dong Leyi had planned to marry her previous boyfriend, Yaoming, but Dai Daji felt they treated love like a business deal, which meant Dong Leyi didn’t truly love him. She advised her to think it through again. Back in 2016, Zhou Shui’s father came to Beijing. Dai Daji’s mother’s face fell immediately when she realized Zhou Shui’s mother hadn’t come. Zhou’s father explained that their store was too busy, and someone had to stay and manage it.
Dai Daji’s mother had sold all her properties in their hometown to come up with 600,000 yuan, but the remaining 900,000 yuan for the down payment would have to come from Zhou’s family. Zhou’s father explained that they had bought a retirement home in Chongqing last year, so things were financially tight. Dai Daji’s mother was furious and insisted that Zhou’s father sell the Chongqing property. Zhou Shui disagreed, and Dai Daji’s mother slammed the table on the spot.
Unable to stop the argument, Dai Daji bluntly said, “Then let’s not get married. ” Her fiery-tempered mother stormed out. Outside, Dai Daji tried to calm her down. Meanwhile, Zhou’s father had already decided to sell the retirement home and transfer the hotpot restaurant. They would move back to their hometown, but since Dai Daji had been with Zhou Shui for eight years, he felt she deserved an answer. That night, Zhou Shui and Dai Daji did the math.
Without relying on their parents, they were still short one million yuan for the down payment. So, they began borrowing money—although asking for loans was never easy. Dai Daji went to Wang Jingshu for help but was surprised to learn that Wang Jingshu didn’t have any cash. Liao Zong only gave her shopping cards and had a driver watching over her. Liao Zong never gave her money, just the illusion of being wealthy.
Wang Jingshu invited Dai Daji to do some cosmetic procedures together, but Dai Daji said she had a meeting and would join next time. She couldn’t bear to see Wang Jingshu like this. Youth is fleeting, and so is beauty—Wang Jingshu should keep something more substantial for herself. Wang Jingshu still wanted to help. She hoped Liao Zong would give them the advertising project, but his condition was for her to bear him a son.
The next day, Dai Daji and Zhou Shui received the real estate company’s ad project. The budget was two million yuan. The two of them were overjoyed at the chance to earn one million. But then, Zhou Shui received an invitation from a famous company to direct Such A Good Love, with an investment of twenty million yuan. The original plan was to shoot the movie first, then the commercial.
But the real estate company wanted to push the ad shoot to February 16 of the following year. The movie was set to start filming on the 15th. That meant Zhou Shui wouldn’t be able to direct the film. The film crew refused to budge. Now, he had to choose: the movie or the ad? His dream or a house? Zhou Shui began to hesitate.
