Da Liu tried his best to curry favor with Huang Yimei. Zhuang Guodong suppressed his anger and approached Da Liu, asking him to toast with other members of Qingting Company. He then smoothly sat next to Huang Yimei and made friendly overtures. Suddenly, Huang Zhenhua called Huang Yimei to pick her up. As Huang Yimei stepped out to take the call, Han Ying approached Zhuang Guodong, trying to get close to him. Seeing this, Zhuang Guodong dismissed everyone, telling them to go home. Han Ying pretended to be drunk and leaned on Zhuang Guodong, acting coquettishly, asking him to take her home. Huang Yimei was infuriated but masked her feelings with indifference.

Huang Zhenhua arrived to pick up Huang Yimei. Their colleagues mistakenly thought Huang Zhenhua was Huang Yimei's boyfriend, making Zhuang Guodong uncomfortable. He wanted to message Huang Yimei for clarification but restrained himself, only sending a greeting message instead. Huang Zhenhua suggested pretending to be Huang Yimei's boyfriend to prompt Zhuang Guodong to pursue her, and in return, Huang Yimei agreed to help him court Bai Xiaohe.

It was the weekend, and Huang Zhenhua took Huang Yimei and Bai Xiaohe to the countryside for fishing. Bai Xiaohe, uninterested, sat under a tree reading a book. Huang Zhenhua tried hard to find topics to please her. Bai Xiaohe complimented him as the most suitable marriage partner. Huang Yimei spoke highly of Huang Zhenhua in front of Bai Xiaohe. When Bai Xiaohe accidentally fell, Huang Yimei urged Huang Zhenhua to play the hero. However, Huang Zhenhua slipped on a rock and fell badly, injuring his foot. Bai Xiaohe was unscathed, and they accompanied Huang Zhenhua to the hospital for bandaging.

Early the next morning, Bai Xiaohe visited Huang Zhenhua at home. He was pleasantly surprised and tried to tidy up his messy room, only to fall again. Bai Xiaohe helped him clean up, acting like his girlfriend. Huang Zhenhua was moved to tears and held Bai Xiaohe's hand tightly. Bai Xiaohe bought a lot of fruits and even cooked for him.

Zhuang Guodong convened a project team meeting only to find out that Huang Yimei had gone to Shanghai on a business trip with Su Gengsheng, leaving him feeling disappointed. Bai Xiaohe meticulously took care of Huang Zhenhua while also finding time to write her thesis. Su Gengsheng took Huang Yimei to an art exhibition, broadening Huang Yimei's horizons, though Su Gengsheng remained indifferent. Huang Yimei casually opened a jukebox, and the event organizer, hearing about it, rushed over. The song playing was his favorite, and Huang Yimei was the first to activate the jukebox. He shared this good news with foreign guests at the exhibition and took a commemorative photo with Huang Yimei.

Wu Yuejiang called Huang Zhenhua, asking him to move back home, but he politely declined. He invited Bai Xiaohe for dinner at home, but Bai Xiaohe felt uneasy. Huang Zhenhua didn't press her, but before leaving, Bai Xiaohe gave him a light hug. Huang Zhenhua was surprised by the typically reserved Bai Xiaohe's sudden display of affection.

Jiang Xueqiong wanted to groom Huang Yimei to be a curator, but Su Gengsheng felt it was too early. However, Jiang Xueqiong saw potential in Huang Yimei. Su Gengsheng took Huang Yimei to various art exhibitions in Shanghai, strongly recommending her to the organizers. Huang Yimei learned a lot and was grateful.

As Huang Zhenhua's injury gradually healed, he visited Bai Xiaohe in the lab, wearing a sharp suit. He formally invited her to meet his parents, but Bai Xiaohe was caught off guard and didn't know how to respond. Huang Zhenhua, thinking she had refused, left disappointed. Bai Xiaohe couldn't bear to see him leave so dejectedly and hurried out to explain.

Bai Xiaohe revealed she had a boyfriend of five years. After he graduated, he returned to Anhui to be closer to his parents. Not wanting to be too far from her own parents, Bai Xiaohe stayed on for her Ph.D. Unexpectedly, her boyfriend started dating someone else three months later. Bai Xiaohe hadn't fully recovered from the breakup, and Huang Zhenhua understood her predicament.

Since Zhuang Guodong could remember, his parents frequently quarreled in front of him. It had become routine. His mother accompanied him to study in France, leaving his father, Zhuang Taiwen, in Beijing.

When his mother returned to finalize the divorce, Zhuang Taiwen called Zhuang Guodong for a meal. Reluctantly, Zhuang Guodong went. His mother urged him to return to France soon, which angered Zhuang Taiwen, leading to another heated argument between his parents.
