Episode 26 recap: Gao Xin Yi is going to study abroad.

Tong Xiao Qi specifically went to a jewelry store to buy a ring, planning to propose to Gao Xin Yi. Upon learning that wedding rings were being purchased, he decided to directly buy the most expensive ring in the store. Gao Xin Yi received the acceptance letter from the school she applied to and was very happy. Su Guo Liang happened to see it and greatly admired her. He believed that she should definitely go, otherwise it would be difficult for someone like him, who has always aspired but failed, to accept.

Taking the opportunity of reporting her work to Xu Ban Xia, Gao Xin Yi told her the good news. Xu Ban Xia naturally supported Gao Xin Yi's decision to study abroad, but Tong Xiao Qi was still unaware. Gao Xin Yi wanted to go in her heart but was also worried about maintaining a long-distance relationship with Tong Xiao Qi and the strain it might put on their feelings for each other, so she inquired about Xu Ban Xia's situation with Zhao Lei.

Xu Ban Xia had been eager to meet Zhao Lei, and when Gao Xin Yi asked about him, she couldn't help but wish to see him immediately. She held her phone, editing and deleting text messages repeatedly, but never sent any. Tong Xiao Qi called Gao Xin Yi and asked her to help him find a bank card. Gao Xin Yi searched through the entire cabinet but couldn't find it. Later, Tong Xiao Qi remembered that he had left it under the table.

Gao Xin Yi opened her notebook and found the bank card neatly tucked inside Tong Xiao Qi's list of wishes, which included marrying Gao Xin Yi, having children together, going to Brazil to watch a football match, tutoring their children, teaching them how to play soccer, and fulfilling Chen Yu Zhou's unfinished list of wishes.

Gao Xin Yi was overjoyed to see herself included in Tong Xiao Qi's future plans. She picked up her pen and added the eighth item, "Always be with Tong Xiao Qi." That night, Xu Ban Xia and Gao Xin Yi went out together for a late-night snack. Gao Xin Yi mentioned Tong Xiao Qi's wish list, and Xu Ban Xia knew about it, but they hadn't had a detailed conversation about it when Tong Xiao Qi arrived.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gao Xin Yi boldly asked Tong Xiao Qi if he planned to marry her and when they would get married. Tong Xiao Qi had the engagement ring in his pocket and, upon hearing her words, drank a glass of wine and skipped the proposal part, going straight to talking about marriage. Gao Xin Yi was overjoyed and pulled Tong Xiao Qi into her embrace. The two of them held each other tightly, and tears welled up in Gao Xin Yi's eyes. After going through so much, they were finally going to bear the fruit of their relationship, tears of happiness.

Xu Ban Xia looked at the loving couple in front of her and couldn't help but miss Zhao Lei even more. She quietly left and called him, telling him that she missed him a lot and hoped to see him soon.

Zhao Lei has been busy lately and doesn't have time to go back, so he suggested to Xu Ban Xia to come to Shanghai and take a few days off. Xu Ban Xia felt disappointed in her heart but said it was just a joke before hanging up the phone. Tong Xiao Qi found out that Gao Xin Yi had been preparing for a year and finally got accepted into an American university through the school's selection process. He immediately got angry and blamed Gao Xin Yi for not telling him anything for a whole year, saying that they didn't need to get married anymore.

Gao Xin Yi was determined that she would regret it for the rest of her life if she didn't go to the United States. She hoped that getting married would give Tong Xiao Qi some peace of mind. However, Tong Xiao Qi felt that it was meaningless and refused to agree. He angrily left Gao Xin Yi.

While inspecting the construction of a steel plant, Xu Ban Xia suddenly fainted and was urgently taken to the hospital. After Su Guo Dong examined her, he learned that she had a stomach perforation, which was caused by not eating properly in the past. This time she was taken to the hospital in time and didn't need surgery, but if it happens again, it won't be so simple.

Tong Xiao Qi and Gao Xin Yi came to visit Xu Ban Xia. When Tong Xiao Qi learned that Zhao Lei didn't know about Xu Ban Xia's current condition, he couldn't help but be angry with Xu Ban Xia. He didn't say anything and advised her that if she continued like this, she wouldn't go far with Zhao Lei. It would be better to tell the truth and ask Zhao Lei to come back and help. They could be together.

Xu Ban Xia knew that Zhao Lei was very busy and didn't want him to worry, so she stopped Tong Xiao Qi from saying anything. Gao Xin Yi also supported Xu Ban Xia's decision, which made Tong Xiao Qi even more frustrated. Wu Jian She's factory had just received a large order from General Wang, with a deadline of one month to complete the project. The provincial government discovered severe pollution in the surrounding area and urgently ordered the shutdown of all polluting enterprises, including Wu Jian She's factory. However, Wu Jian She secretly violated the order and instructed Qiu Bi Zheng to continue production in secret. They even came up with the idea of digging deep wells, so that the pollution wouldn't be immediately noticeable.

Qiu Bi Zheng was worried that this would lead to a major incident, but Wu Jian She didn't take it seriously. He believed that city people were too delicate. He used to drink water from ditches in the countryside without any problems. Someone filed a complaint to Chairman Gao about this, which made her very angry. She immediately called Wu Jian She and gave him a warning, but Wu Jian She didn't take it seriously at all.
