Episode 8 recap: Ye Han bared his heart and kissed Li Xiao Xiao.
As Li Xiao Xiao admired the beautiful scenery ahead and wanted to take a photo, she almost tripped but was saved by Ye Han, who embraced her in his arms. They took a selfie together. They arrived at a bookstore, and from Ye Han's gaze, Li Xiao Xiao noticed his unusual expression towards a woman on the cover of a magazine. Li Xiao Xiao pretended not to notice and casually picked up the magazine, praising it. Ye Han casually picked up a novel and began narrating the story to her. Using the story, Li Xiao Xiao encouraged Ye Han to always look forward and urged him to take the magazine with him.
Later, they went to the bridge to admire the moon. They shared their thoughts and dreams with each other. Ye Han jokingly said that maybe in the future, her grandson would also be his grandson, which made Li Xiao Xiao blush with shyness. Xu Jia Lin arrived at her own hotel and initially tried to communicate with the staff using sign language, but they didn't understand. She ended up speaking and requested a large bed room. The manager recognized her identity and immediately upgraded her to a suite. When she learned that all her relatives would receive unconditional upgrades when they came to the hotel, she made a note of the issue in her notebook, stating that it shouldn't happen in the future.
The leader summoned Tong Yi Wen and informed her that she would be recording a variety show on the 5th of next month, which would be an opportunity to increase her exposure. Beijie reminded her to speak more modestly this time and not engage in conflicts. Xu Jia Cheng learned that his sister had returned and mistakenly thought that she would bring her boyfriend back from vacation. He assumed that the boyfriend must have returned early from studying abroad. Xu Yan felt that Xu Jia Cheng's assumption was a waste since he wasn't a director.
To Xu Jia Cheng's surprise, he guessed that Jialin's boyfriend was very poor and didn't dare to tell their parents, so he secretly came back. However, Xu Yan didn't think so. She believed that Jialin had good taste because she had once liked Xu Jia Cheng, who was an outstanding person. That night, Tong Yi Wen received a call from Xu Jia Cheng's mother. Xu's mother met her in person and immediately mentioned her family background, advising her to leave Xu Jia Cheng.
While listening to Xu's mother belittle her, Tong Yi Wen directly stated that she had long dumped her immature son and that her achievements were the result of her own efforts, not relying on others. Xu's mother went home and complained to her son, Xu Jia Cheng, who later complained to Tong Yi Wen. Tong Yi Wen once again determined that she would not be with him.
The high-speed rail station did not receive a report of Li Xiao Xiao's missing luggage. Ye Han discovered that the owner of the suitcase in the luggage was going to attend a wedding. They went to the wedding venue to find the owner and recognized each other through a person's headscarf. They successfully exchanged their luggage. As a result, Li Xiao Xiao and Ye Han also attended a wedding, and they were deeply moved by the love between the newlyweds.
Ye Han looked at Li Xiao Xiao affectionately, feeling a deep sense of happiness in his heart. After the wedding, Li Xiao Xiao held a bouquet of flowers that Ye Han had once given to his ex-girlfriend, who had abandoned him.
That evening, the two of them walked and talked on the street. They came across a wishing tree, and Li Xiao Xiao quietly made a wish and hung it on the tree. Ye Han, seeing the innocent appearance of Xiao Xiao making a wish under the tree, couldn't help but make a wish himself.
At that moment, Ye Han finally let go of his hesitation and kissed Li Xiao Xiao. After parting ways, both of them had a sleepless night in their respective rooms, recalling the kiss they had just shared. Xu Jia Cheng looked at Ye Han sitting on the couch, hugging a pillow and lost in thought, teasing him about being a grown man daydreaming. The next day, the basketball team had a group outing, and Ye Han agreed to participate just to see Xiao Xiao.
The next day, Xu Jia Cheng pulled Xiao Xiao into Ye Han's convertible, and the two of them awkwardly looked at each other. Li Xiao Xiao couldn't fasten her seatbelt, and when Xu Jia Cheng tried to help, Ye Han, feeling jealous, stepped on the accelerator. When everyone asked Li Xiao Xiao what kind of person she liked, she casually said a few words, and Xu Jia Cheng jokingly said it sounded like him, wondering if Xiao Xiao liked him.
Ye Han, looking at Xiao Xiao's non-response, immediately felt jealous, slammed on the brakes, and asked her to snap out of it. The four of them arrived at the mountaintop to go sledding. Ye Han had a fear of heights but pretended to remain calm. When they reached the bottom of the mountain, Xu Jia Cheng injured his foot, and Li Xiao Xiao showed concern, which annoyed Ye Han.
Xu Yan took Xu Jia Cheng to the infirmary. Ye Han asked Xiao Xiao alone if she still had feelings for Xu Jia Cheng, given that she seemed nervous and distant whenever she saw him. Li Xiao Xiao thought he was being meddlesome and said that the kiss they shared last night was just a momentary impulse due to the atmosphere.
However, Ye Han expressed that it wasn't just because of that, but because he genuinely fell in love with her, that's all. The two of them parted ways unhappily. Back at the hotel, Ye Han saw the yarn in the suitcase and remembered the scene of their first encounter with Xiao Xiao.
