Episode 19 recap: Xin Qi tried his best to pursue Min Hui.
Xin Qi went to find Min Hui and asked her to have dinner together, but Min Hui declined, saying she didn't want to entertain clients after work. Xin Qi had no choice but to leave first. However, Min Hui called him back, and Xin Qi happily returned, thinking that Min Hui had changed her mind. To his surprise, Min Hui asked him to take the flowers with him.
Xin Qi and Cao Jiajun went to a bar to have a drink, and both of them were feeling down. Xin Qi handed a romance novel to Cao Jiajun, saying that it had been verified by Ha Di and was guaranteed to be effective. Cao Jiajun suggested a strategy to Xin Qi, saying that women couldn't resist the temptation of abs, and Xin Qi should show Min Hui the charm of a mature man.
Cao Jiajun taught Quan Quan how to swim, and Min Hui mentioned that Quan Quan had always wanted to learn swimming but she hadn't had time to bring him. Xin Qi also arrived, and Cao Jiajun claimed that Xin Qi wanted to have dinner with him, so he informed Min Hui. Min Hui realized that they were collaborating. She made an excuse about having a class and asked Xin Qi to teach Quan Quan how to swim before quickly leaving.
Xin Qi took off his jacket, revealing a muscle shirt underneath, leaving Min Hui speechless and thinking that he was embarrassing himself. Cao Jiajun went to find Cao Mu and tried to imitate the methods of a domineering CEO by pinning Cao Mu against a car. However, they were being watched by a security guard. Cao Jiajun hurriedly ran away, and Cao Mu watched his figure and found him adorable.
Cao Jiajun ran out and felt that renting a suit had been in vain. Quan Quan told Xin Qi that Min Hui had been constantly looking at a certain uncle. Xin Qi decided to compete with that person and ended up feeling discomfort in his heart. Min Hui was startled and quickly swam over to ask Xin Qi if he was okay.
Xin Qi reassured her that he was fine and asked Min Hui to listen to his heartbeat. However, they heard the ringtone of a nearby girl instead, which made Min Hui feel a bit embarrassed, so she quickly left. Cao Mu showed Min Hui a website created by her classmate, which was a dating platform in need of high-quality people. Cao Mu said she had already signed Min Hui up, although Min Hui stated that she wouldn't go.
Cao Jiajun and Xin Qi gathered together and both felt down. Cao Jiajun believed that Xin Qi could take advantage of the situation and persistently stay close to Min Hui, as she wouldn't really kick him out. Xin Qi mentioned that he couldn't make a move at the moment, but Cao Jiajun assured him that he had an insider who would let him in. Quan Quan would open the door for him.
Xin Qi thought it made sense and said he would trust Cao Jiajun one more time. Min Hui returned home and found Xin Qi there. She asked Quan Quan how he could let someone in, and Quan Quan replied that Xin Qi wasn't just anyone. Xin Qi explained that there was a burst pipe in his house, so he couldn't stay there. Min Hui made a video call to Ha Di, who was prepared and showed her a pre-recorded video, successfully deceiving her.
Min Hui allowed Xin Qi to stay there while she went to Cao Mu's house. Xin Qi was worried that Min Hui would go to Zhou Ru Ji, so he hurried over, but Zhou Ru Ji didn't let him in. In reality, Zhou Ru Ji had just received a doll sent by Yao Zi Zhu, with Yao Zi Zhu's face on it, and she didn't want Xin Qi to see it.
Cao Mu asked Min Hui if she had made up her mind not to forgive Xin Qi. Min Hui also felt frustrated, and both of them felt that the other didn't know how to appease them. The next day, Xin Qi came to the company to find Min Hui and learned that she stayed at Cao Mu's house yesterday, which put his mind at ease.
While Xin Qi was out, he overheard others discussing Min Hui and him. They speculated that if Xin Qi didn't want to get married, Min Hui secretly got pregnant to force him into marriage. Xin Qi approached them and clarified that he was pursuing Min Hui and hoped everyone would help. The others were shocked by his statement.
Zhong Mei Mei was transferred to Min Hui's side. Cao Mu asked why Min Hui didn't directly transfer him over if she wanted to help Zhong Mei Mei. Min Hui explained that in the current situation, she was helping Zhong Mei Mei by allowing her to resist on her own, and it was different from directly intervening.
Quan Quan secretly called Xin Qi and expressed concerns about Min Hui and Cao Mu. Xin Qi and Chen Jiajun became anxious upon hearing this and quickly asked what the problem was.
