Episode 18 recap: Xu Jia Lin bravely subdued the creepy man.
The next day, Ye Han arrived at the company in a very good mood, while Xu Jia Cheng was gloomy. Their moods completely switched. Li Xiao Xiao, in order to express her love for Ye Han, specially arranged a candlelight dinner at a hotel. Ye Han looked at the indulgent Li Xiao Xiao, feeling slightly shy. When she tried to escape, she was cornered by Ye Han against the wall.
Xiao Xiao was originally conflicted and didn't know how to face Ye Han. When she hesitated in front of his company's entrance, she coincidentally bumped into Ye Han at the café on the ground floor. She had intended to avoid him, but mustered up the courage to approach Ye Han. She sincerely apologized to him. Ye Han didn't know if she was apologizing for confessing her feelings or for the incident of kissing him.
Ye Han asked if she only acted on impulse when she was drunk, considering he had already been rejected by her twice, and he could handle anything. Tong Yi Wen, because of the filming, knew that Xu Jia Cheng had arranged work for her on purpose. She felt grateful yet evasive towards Xu Jia Cheng, not wanting her years of work to be taken over by someone who relied on connections.
During the meeting, General Gu paid no attention to Xu Jia Lin's proposal and kept staring at Xiao Zhou, a beautiful woman. Even in the evening, he was dragged by the leader to have drinks with General Gu. Xu Jia Lin noticed Xiao Zhou's deliberate avoidance and sensed something fishy. When Xiao Zhou took the opportunity to go to the restroom and hail a taxi to leave, Xu Jia Lin came to find her and learned that General Gu had been harassing her from the beginning, but he was a major client of the company, and the leadership didn't protect her at all.
Xu Jia Lin stated that she had a way to deal with General Gu. Li Xiao Xiao channeled her longing for Ye Han into exercise, and she was torn about whether or not to go find him. Ye Han tried to turn his and Xiao Xiao's experiences into inspirational stories, but the more he wrote, the less inspired he felt. Xiao Xiao coincidentally witnessed a girl confessing her feelings on the street and decided to use the same method, but when she thought about Ye Han's personality, she felt it was inappropriate.
At that moment, cherry blossoms floated down from the sky, and she thought about arranging a romantic confession ceremony at the hotel. But as she fantasized, the room caught fire, bringing her back to reality, and she realized that method wouldn't work either. Ye Han once again saw Xiao Xiao from the café, acting as if he hadn't noticed her walking past him. Xiao Xiao quietly followed behind him, and Ye Han's objective was achieved as he led her to a certain place.
Xiao Xiao's trailing was discovered, and when faced with Ye Han's questioning, she admitted that she missed him.
Ye Han said she seemed a bit uncomfortable and noticed that something was off in his gaze, so she shyly escaped. Xiao Xiao, accompanied by Xiao Zhou, sought help from Xu Yan and looked at the messages General Gu had sent to Xiao Zhou, feeling that they couldn't serve as evidence. Xu Yan suggested that Xiao Zhou should avoid meeting General Gu alone in the future and try to collect evidence.
Xu Yan also warned Xu Jia Lin not to act rashly, as he had watched her grow up and fully understood her character. Tong Yi Wen received a call from Xue Er, who wanted to introduce her to someone, but Tong Yi Wen declined directly. Xiao Zhou received a message from General Gu, asking her to deliver documents to a hotel.
Xu Jia Lin went to the hotel alone instead of Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Zhou, worried, informed Xu Yan in advance. General Gu, upon seeing Xu Jia Lin's arrival, openly discussed work with her. General Gu made an excuse to go to the room to talk, while Xu Jia Lin deliberately delayed, engaging in conversation with him in the lobby. Her phone in her pocket was recording the entire time, hoping to obtain strong evidence this time.
General Gu began to reveal his true colors, grasping Xu Jia Lin's hand and promising her generous rewards. Later, when Xu Jia Lin left in the elevator, General Gu directly ran into the elevator and took Xu Jia Lin to the floor with the rooms. Luckily, Xu Yan arrived and saved her while General Gu was harassing Xu Jia Lin in the elevator.
Xu Yan held her in his arms, feeling great concern for her. Afterward, Xu Jia Lin was glad that she had obtained evidence of General Gu's sexual harassment and finally had the scumbag brought to justice. An old colleague who had left Shendu and joined a rival company had returned to Shendu, hoping that Ye Han would not hold a grudge. Ye Han graciously accepted him and welcomed him to join.
Manager Wang was waiting for General Gu to hold a meeting, but he was late. At this moment, Xu Jia Lin informed the leadership that General Gu was under investigation by the authorities for his harassment of her the previous night. Grace from Baohe Travel Company came to sign a contract, stating that their colleague, General Gu, had been fired by the company and that she would be the point of contact with Xu Jia Lin in the future. Li Xiao Xiao was at home, not receiving any messages from Ye Han, when she suddenly saw a magazine and immediately had an idea.
In the evening, Xu Jia Lin took the initiative to install a humidifier for him. Reluctantly leaving his room, she expressed that her door would always be open for him.
