Episode 14 recap: Ye Han and Xu Jia Cheng followed Xiao Xiao back to her hometown together.
Xu Jia Cheng and Ye Han didn't get along at first. When Xu Yan and others tried to intervene, they were excluded by the two. Ye Han and Xu Jia Cheng arrived at Xiao Xiao's hometown and caught chickens together. The result was chaotic, with chickens flying and dogs jumping. However, when Xiao Xiao made a move, she caught a chicken effortlessly.
During the meal, Grandma asked Xu Jia Cheng and Ye Han if they liked Xiao Xiao. Both of them didn't express their opinions, but Grandma encouraged her granddaughter to face it bravely. Li Xiao Xiao returned home for the New Year and greeted her neighbors. However, she was bombarded with questions about marriage. She pretended not to notice and finally arrived home. Just as she saw Grandma, a neighbor aunt came to inquire about her situation, showering her with praise. Finally, they got to the point and mentioned that their nephew also worked in Shanghai for a large company. In order for Xiao Xiao to have a peaceful future, they suggested meeting with him.
When Lu Zheng and the other four gathered, Xu Yan mentioned that Li Xiao Xiao had resigned as their basketball coach after the New Year. Her reason was to focus on training the students. Xu Jia Cheng and Ye Han both expressed their intention to talk to her.
Li Xiao Xiao absentmindedly picked vegetables, and Grandma, observing the shattered and fragmented vegetables, realized that Xiao Xiao was lost in thought. When Xiao Xiao went out to deliver goods to customers, Grandma received a phone call from Ye Han and truthfully told him their hometown address. Xu Jia Cheng wanted to go to Hangzhou to find her, but Ye Han disagreed. They argued, and in the end, they had no choice but to go together.
Ye Han asked Xu Jia Cheng why he didn't like Xiao Xiao, and Xu Jia Cheng said there was no chemistry between them. He countered by asking Ye Han when he started to like Xiao Xiao. Ye Han admitted it was that night ten weeks ago. The neighbor aunt actually brought her nephew, Wen Guang, as promised. Both of them had grown up and were completely different from when they were children. In order to give them some privacy, the aunt took Grandma away. Wen Guang awkwardly sat down, and while they were chatting, Ye Han and Xu Jia Cheng quietly arrived at Xiao Xiao's house and stood behind them, listening to Wen Guang talk about his stable job and high income. He even mentioned that he could support Xiao Xiao after they got married. At this moment, Ye Han interrupted him, saying that even Jia Cheng said they should have taken a helicopter if they knew the journey would be like this. It's not like they couldn't afford it.
Xiao Xiao looked at the sudden arrival of the two and ignored them. After politely rejecting Wen Guang, she scolded the two of them harshly. At this time, Grandma came back and praised the two young men for being handsome. She invited them to have a meal and, in order not to be freeloaders, they offered to help. Grandma assigned them the task of catching chickens. As soon as they approached the chickens, they were frightened and retreated. Seeing their clumsy appearance, Xiao Xiao stepped in and effortlessly caught a chicken with one hand as she walked away.
Xu Jia Lin tried to contact Xu Yan but found his phone switched off. Feeling bored, she received a message from Da Luo inviting her to go out and have fun. After the additional meal, she ate with Grandma and Xiao Xiao. They even toasted Grandma with alcohol, indicating that they didn't plan to leave. During the meal, Grandma asked the two of them who liked Xiao Xiao. Ye Han openly admitted his feelings, while Xu Jia Cheng ate quietly on the side.
They drank from day to night, and Ye Han started feeling dizzy and went outside to get some fresh air. When Grandma went to prepare a hangover soup, Xu Jia Cheng apologized to Xiao Xiao privately. He hoped she would return to the basketball team and acknowledged that he had acted without considering the consequences. He said that as long as she was happy, he would support her in any decision and always wish her well. Xiao Xiao went out to find Ye Han and told him that this drinking session was a farewell to alcohol. Ye Han asked if this farewell included him. He had come this time to find answers.
When Grandma brought the hangover soup, she had overheard their conversation. Grandma praised Tong Yi Wen, saying she was a remarkable girl whom she had watched grow up since childhood. She and Xiao Xiao had grown up together and were both granddaughters. Upon learning that Jia Cheng had been dumped by Tong Yi Wen, Grandma led him to Tong Yi Wen's room. Grandma introduced Tong Yi Wen's struggles from childhood, mentioning that she was a strong-willed girl who never complained. She had finally realized her dream of becoming a model and asked Xu Jia Cheng to bring Tong Yi Wen's beloved doll to Shanghai.
The next day, Ye Han and Xu Jia Cheng left. Ye Han didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he asked Xu Jia Cheng to return first while he finished his business and took the high-speed train back. Grandma understood why Ye Han was returning and advised Xiao Xiao to have a serious talk with him. Xiao Xiao and Ye Han walked and talked, reminiscing about the past and thanking each other for the fun memories they had shared. Xiao Xiao apologized to him. Ye Han realized he had been dumped again, for the second time. This time, there were no goodbyes as he left Hangzhou directly.
After the New Year, everyone returned to their busy work schedules, working from morning till night. Xu Jia Lin also embarked on her professional career. Tong Yi Wen participated in a group interview and faced various discussions among the other newcomers. Since she had made the decision to participate, she had to endure such gossip.
