Jiang Shiyan wanted to help promote the "Zhilan" small shop, so he invited a well-known food vlogger who had reviewed restaurants before. The vlogger arrived at Yi Xiu with no reservations, bringing large bags and filling them with all the sponsored food products from the company. He even asked Jiang Shiyan why he was so concerned about such a small shop with low prices and no potential for profit.

Sheng Nina had once broken Cheng Hui's smart glasses, and to make up for it, she offered to treat him to dinner. Cheng Hui finally agreed, but when Sheng Nina arrived, she was surprised to find seven or eight engineers, with no sign of Cheng Hui.

One of the engineers explained that they were the ones who developed the glasses and assured her that breaking them was no problem—they would make a new pair and, once released, gift them to both Cheng Hui and Sheng Nina. They awkwardly added that they had long admired Sheng Nina and had never met a celebrity in person, and Cheng Hui had helped them fulfill that dream. Sheng Nina smiled awkwardly and responded that she also liked high-tech products.

During a meeting, Gan Yiming suggested three factories for loans. When Tang Yang visited the sites, she found that these companies were not among the local top ten performers, as Gan Yiming had claimed. Many of the machines were covered in a thick layer of dust, indicating they hadn't been used in a long time. Tang Yang felt there was a significant loan risk and didn’t recommend approving the loans.

Gan Yiming, however, kept pressuring her, saying that these factories were major clients and that refusing the loan would lead to endless trouble from them. Tang Yang conducted a thorough investigation, including looking into the factory owner's large spending records. At a public meeting, Tang Yang presented her findings, revealing that the owner had spent millions on streaming platforms and online gambling, frequently purchasing luxury goods and leaving thousands of comments on livestreams.

It was clear that this person was not focused on running the business and did not have the capacity to repay the loan. Tang Yang not only had records but also solid data to support her claims, making it impossible for anyone to cover up the truth. Jiang Shiyan brought the figurine he bought to Tang Yang’s home. At first, Tang Yang noticed that the figurine was flawlessly repaired and praised Jiang Shiyan’s skills.

But then she noticed the number on the figurine and was shocked. The code on the figurine was clearly different from her original one. Tang Yang quickly looked it up online and realized that Jiang Shiyan had bought the set in advance. Tang Yang was unsure of Jiang Shiyan’s intentions. Did he like her, or was he just trying to make up for damaging her figurine?

She had no clue, so she sought advice from a close friend, though she framed the situation as if it were about a colleague. Upon hearing the story, her friend immediately guessed that the guy must have a crush on the girl. So many coincidental details—gifting lipstick, high heels, and even an expensive figurine—what else could it be but love? Her friend advised Tang Yang to take the guy shopping and test the waters through subtle hints.

Following her friend’s advice, Tang Yang tried each suggestion one by one. The results were confusing—neither clear rejection nor confirmation of feelings, but with a lingering sense of ambiguity. When Jiang Shiyan saw Tang Yang wearing a different style of clothing than usual, he didn’t offer any empty compliments or buy matching couple bracelets. However, he did give her a sweet, delicate bracelet and, when he noticed her shoelaces were untied, casually knelt down to tie them for her. What kind of feeling was this? A sibling-like bond? Tang Yang was left puzzled, her head spinning with thoughts.
