After He Suye finished discussing the requirements and basic details with the hotel, he led everyone to the herb garden to explore the medicinal plants. Shen Xifan noticed schisandra berries and, with He Suye’s permission, picked a bunch. She then lied to Xu Xiangya and Lin Yishen, claiming they were delicious. Li Jie initially wanted to stop her, but He Suye found it amusing. That was until Xu Xiangya realized she had been tricked and cried out in frustration.

Back inside the plantation base, Xu Xiangya took the initiative to chat and joke with Li Jie, catching Lin Yishen’s attention. Noticing Lin Yishen’s unhappy expression, Shen Xifan found an excuse to send Li Jie away. However, Xu Xiangya persisted, even exchanging WeChat contacts with Li Jie, making the situation incredibly awkward.

Because of this, Shen Xifan moved to the side to examine medicinal materials, intending to gather ingredients for sachets. He Suye took the initiative to introduce the herbs to her and even led her outside to identify more medicinal plants. When she smelled agarwood, Shen Xifan found the scent familiar—it seemed similar to a cologne He Suye had worn before. But He Suye denied ever wearing cologne and instead teased her, saying she was using the scent as an excuse to compliment him.

The next morning, Shen Xifan arrived at He Suye’s apartment complex, only to receive a message from Xu Xiangya urging her to forward yesterday’s group photo to He Suye. Just then, He Suye appeared and gave Shen Xifan a sachet he had made for her. Learning that she no longer wanted to take medicine, he suggested she try acupuncture instead.

Shen Xifan instinctively responded by asking if she always had to be sick to visit him. The moment the words left her mouth, she realized the implication sounded ambiguous. He Suye was briefly stunned before inviting her to his place for a medicinal meal whenever she had time. Shen Xifan was overjoyed by his words. Even after returning home, her parents could sense something was different about her. She hid in her room, holding the sachet, feeling as if her heart was fluttering like a deer in a field.

As the entire hotel prepared diligently, the middle-aged and elderly wellness tour group arrived at Gunan Huating. Shen Xifan, Xu Xiangya, Lin Yishen, and others introduced the guests to the prepared medicinal meals and the sachets placed in their rooms. Although the elderly guests had many diverse and complicated requests, leaving the hotel staff overwhelmed, the traditional medicine-based meals and attentive service received unanimous praise.

Meanwhile, Zhao Ze underwent another round of chemotherapy. With the assistance of herbal treatments, the side effects were significantly reduced. As a reward, He Suye gave Zhao Ze the Transformers toy. Upon learning about He Suye and Shen Xifan’s situation, Zhao Ze felt a little disappointed. He had been hoping to match He Suye with his mother. However, realizing that he was growing up and couldn’t force others, he "maturely" chose to give them his blessing—after all, he had already accepted a gift from He Suye.

Elsewhere, during a conversation with Shen Xifan, Lin Yishen revealed that he might resign next year to take over his parents' small business. Shen Xifan knew that he and Xu Xiangya had feelings for each other, but neither had ever broken through the invisible barrier between them. Lin Yishen asked Shen Xifan if, after so much time had passed, there was still a chance between him and Xu Xiangya. Shen Xifan didn’t know how to respond.

Later, He Suye told Shen Xifan that he had given the toy to Zhao Ze and, using Zhao Ze’s desire to thank her as an excuse, invited her over for dinner. Seeing how happy she looked while texting, Li Jie couldn’t help but remark that the last time he saw her this cheerful was back in their university days.

After work, Shen Xifan took the initiative to visit He Suye’s home. She shared with him how the elderly guests were so full of energy that even she, as a young person, struggled to keep up. As they talked, she suddenly noticed the metal ring on He Suye’s keychain. It looked exactly like the one she had given him before—the one he had previously lied about losing.
