Episode 10 recap: Dong Dongen and Lou Yuan had a dinner gathering.
Wang Zi Jian had consumed a considerable amount of alcohol and stumbled over to find Cao Ya. Meanwhile, Dong Dongen and Lou Yuan were having a dinner gathering when they heard someone knocking on the door. Dong Dongen went to open the door and found Lou Yuan there, who had brought some food for them. Ke Mao Xu urged Lou Yuan to stay and join them for the meal. Dong Dongen asked Lou Yuan why they taught them how to dance, to which Lou Yuan replied that they wanted Dong Dongen to be their dance partner.
After Wang Zi Jian had drunk quite a bit, he came over in a drunken state to find Cao Ya. Dong Dongen and Lou Yuan finished their meal and came out. Dong Dongen realized that Zhang Jia Mu's life wasn't as good as they had imagined. Dong Dongen expressed that they didn't want to become that kind of person. Lou Yuan asked Dong Dongen what kind of person they wanted to become, and Dong Dongen replied that they wanted to become someone like Lou Yuan—capable yet still holding onto their own ideals. Ma Cheng Shu came over to bring fruit for Hi Mei, but she showed no gratitude and made it clear that they had already broken up. Hi Mei said that even when she's sixty-six years old, she would still go and dance in the square. Dong Dongen happened to return and took the fruit inside. Dong Dongen asked Hi Mei if she really couldn't forgive Ma Cheng Shu, but Hi Mei told them not to bring it up.
Wang Zi Jian woke up feeling miserable, wondering how he could have done such a thing. Cao Ya's alarm clock rang, and they asked Wang Zi Jian if he was willing to get up or if he planned on pretending to be dead all day. Cao Ya urged Wang Zi Jian to quickly get up, as they were going to be late for work.
Previously, Ke Mao Xu had promised to buy concert tickets for Fatty once they completed this project. However, Ke Mao Xu mentioned that the tickets for the concert were too difficult to obtain, and they hadn't managed to get any. Fatty felt extremely frustrated, and the others informed Fatty that the studio was struggling to pay salaries, making it impossible to afford concert tickets. Fatty quickly apologized to Ke Mao Xu.
Lou Yuan called Dong Dong En and informed her that they would have a meeting in the afternoon to discuss a new advertising design proposal and asked her to join. The company was also distributing New Year's gifts, and Lou Yuan had prepared one specifically for Dong Dong En, including something special inside. Dong Dong En was surprised to find out that she had a gift too and was very happy. The R&D department had developed several new products tailored to the preferences of young people, which meant that the corresponding advertising plans needed to be redesigned. Dong Dong En took note of the key points and assured that they would try their best to submit the drafts within two weeks.
Lou Yuan called Cao Ya and the others, but they were all busy and couldn't spend New Year's Eve with Lou Yuan. Lou Yuan went to the hospital to visit his mother, who was happily playing cards with her friends. She told Lou Yuan, a young person, not to stay there and instead go find his girlfriend. Lou Yuan waited downstairs at Dong Dong En's place and received the delivered takeaway before going upstairs and knocking on the door.
Dong Dong En and a few others were having a meal together when they heard someone knocking on the door. Dong Dong En went to open it and found that it was Lou Yuan. Lou Yuan brought some food for them. Ke Mao Xu invited Lou Yuan to stay and join their gathering. Everyone had a joyful time eating together.
Dong Dong En walked Lou Yuan downstairs, and Lou Yuan gave Dong Dong En the invitation letter for the annual meeting, mentioning that they would dance at the event. Dong Dong En said she didn't know how to dance, but Lou Yuan assured her that he could teach her. Dong Dong En asked why Lou Yuan wanted to teach her to dance, to which Lou Yuan replied that he hoped Dong Dong En would be his dance partner. Dong Dong En wondered if it was appropriate, but Lou Yuan said he could find someone else if she felt uncomfortable, though he wished she would be his partner. Dong Dong En felt excited and thought about Lou Yuan's words as she went to sleep.
Lou Yuan's mother was going to be discharged from the hospital, so Lou Yuan came to pick her up. Dong Dong En also came and brought a massage gift for Lou Yuan's mother. Lou Yuan's mother expressed that Dong Dong En was better, as Lou Yuan always came empty-handed. Dong Dong En returned and invited everyone to join the annual meeting. She noticed that Ke Mao Xu wasn't there and later found out that he had gone to the library, probably wanting to learn more courses and not wanting everyone to bear the year-end hardships together.
Cao Ya and Wang Zi Jian went to the cafeteria together to have a meal. Wang Zi Jian seemed uncomfortable and worried about others noticing that something was off between them. Wang Zi Jian expressed that he and Cao Ya were quite compatible and wanted to give a romantic relationship a try. Cao Ya was extremely surprised and felt that they were like brothers, wondering why Wang Zi Jian would bring up romantic feelings between them.
