Episode 30 recap: Wang Xin and Ma Yan's marriage turned into a mess.
Bao Jiashun ran away, but soon his body was found by the river, with his tongue and fingers cut off by the killer. The case had no leads. When Wang Xin was not at work, he would accompany Ma Yan to set up a stall. Ma Yan mentioned to Wang Xin that her classmates wanted to introduce someone to her, hoping that Wang Xin would express his opinion.
Wang Xin reluctantly agreed and was forced by Ma Yan to propose to Ma Kui. Helpless, Wang Xin had no choice but to gather up his courage and accompany Ma Yan to meet Ma Kui. Wang Xin was nervous in front of Ma Kui but bravely discussed the idea of marrying Ma Yan. After Wang Xin spoke, Ma Yan also expressed her desire to marry him, pressuring Ma Kui to agree.
Ma Kui did not give a clear response and told Ma Yan that if she wanted to marry, she could go ahead. When Ma Yan asked for her household registration booklet, Ma Kui claimed not to know where it was. Ma Jian, knowing where the booklet was, wanted to find it for Ma Yan but ended up being punished by Ma Kui to copy books.
Ma Yan obtained the household registration booklet and excitedly went to register with Wang Xin. They even planned for a wedding banquet after the registration. However, the staff informed them that the household registration booklet was invalid. Ma Yan did not expect Ma Kui to deceive her with an invalid booklet, and she was too impatient to check it.
Ma Yan was angry at what Ma Kui had done but had no way to confront him because Ma Kui was too cunning. Ma Yan had an argument with Wang Xin, went home in anger, and deliberately burned Ma Kui's food, showing him a bad attitude.
Ma Yan did not bring up the topic of marriage with Ma Kui again. Instead, when Ma Kui was in a good mood, she discussed continuing their business and setting up a stall in her spare time. Ma Kui was afraid that Ma Yan would lose her stable job, so he agreed to let her continue with the business.
Ma Kui changed his mind, and Ma Yan discussed Ma Kui's attitude with Wang Xin. They both believed that Ma Kui must have been shocked by the situation in Shenzhen, which is why he didn't stop her from doing business. Wang Xin mentioned Ah Jie's stall and wanted to come up with something, but he was afraid of Ma Kui's objections, so he didn't dare to engage in business.
When Ma Yan learned that Wang Xin also had the idea of doing business, she promised him to talk to Ma Kui first. During a meal, Ma Yan casually talked to Ma Kui about their business plans and mentioned Wang Xin's interest, but unexpectedly, Ma Kui immediately figured it out.
Ma Kui didn't get angry with Ma Yan but asked Wang Xin to come and see him personally. Ma Yan was thrilled to hear this and immediately went to inform Wang Xin about the situation.
Wang Xin learned that Ma Kui didn't oppose him doing business, which surprised him. He couldn't believe his ears and asked Ma Yan for more details before daring to meet Ma Kui. Ma Yan believed that since Ma Kui didn't object to her doing business, he probably wouldn't object to Wang Xin either. She encouraged Wang Xin to meet with Ma Kui. Wang Xin happily went to see Ma Kui, but to his surprise, he was ridiculed by Ma Kui. Then Ma Kui dragged Wang Xin to resign, and Wang Xin realized that he had been deceived by Ma Kui again.
After being kicked out by Ma Kui, Wang Xin was angry at himself for trusting Ma Kui. He believed that Ma Kui probably didn't want to lose a good police officer like him, which was why he didn't let him do business. Ma Yan didn't think so. She thought that if Wang Xin wanted to be a police officer, she wouldn't stop him. But given the current situation where everyone was rushing into business, they should keep up with the trend. So she suggested that Wang Xin ask Shen Xiu Ping for a fake sick leave, pretending to have a backache and take a few days off to explore opportunities.
Following Ma Yan's advice, Wang Xin packed his bags and prepared to go to Shenzhen. However, Wang Yong Ge noticed that Wang Xin seemed fine and didn't have a backache. Wang Yong Ge asked Wang Xin about the situation, and Wang Xin claimed that his backache came and went and lied that he wanted to go for a change of scenery, which convinced Wang Yong Ge to let him leave.
Ma Yan and Ma Kui took time off and went to the train station with Wang Xin, boarding the train to Shenzhen. Wang Xin covered himself up, leaving only his eyes and mouth exposed. Ma Yan felt uncomfortable looking at him, so she forced Wang Xin to remove his scarf.
Once Wang Xin returned to normal, Ma Yan discussed with him about their plans in Shenzhen and how she wanted to be introduced to people. She also inquired about how much money Wang Xin brought along. Wang Xin, fearing that someone might be eavesdropping, didn't want to discuss money matters on the train. However, unexpectedly, Ma Kui appeared before them.
Ma Yan didn't expect Ma Kui to show up, and as soon as he appeared, he asked Wang Xin to step outside for a chat. Wang Xin had no choice but to face the situation. Ma Kui scolded Wang Xin and expressed his anger, saying that Wang Xin wanted to make money and do business because he despised Wang Xin's poverty. Ma Kui spoke his mind.
Ma Kui shared his story with Wang Xin, explaining that Wang Xin was a promising candidate to become a police officer, and he didn't want Wang Xin to ruin himself. Wang Xin was deeply moved by Ma Kui's story, but he was unsure about what he should do next.
After careful consideration, Wang Xin decided to give up on doing business and return to his work as a police officer. Ma Kui was delighted to see Wang Xin change his mind, and the master and apprentice happily returned to report for duty. After returning, Ma Kui went to confront Shen Xiu Ping about the fake sick leave. Shen Xiu Ping then revealed Wang Xin and Ma Yan's intentions to Ma Kui, hoping to persuade him to agree to the matter.
