Episode 22 recap: Dong Dong En suffered online violence
Dong Dong En and the others come to the hospital to see Ke Mao Xu. Dong Dong En mentions that there was an additional capital injection of 1.5 million in the company's account from Han Corporation. However, Han Chun, who brought the sponsorship, has been missing these days and hasn't returned. Xie Yi believes that if it was Han Chun who brought the sponsorship, it should be genuine, and they still owe Dong Shi Company 700,000.
The doctor comes for rounds and says that Ke Mao Xu is recovering well. He could wake up at any time, so they need to be more attentive. Su Qi returns to the company, stating that they came to collect some personal belongings. People there mock and ridicule Su Qi, but Su Qi ignores them.
Dong Dong En goes out to answer a phone call, and two people passing by mock and ridicule Dong Dong En, saying that Dong Dong En has no shame. Xie Yi comes out and hears them, and scolds them until they leave. Lou Yuan and the others discover that there are people online cyberbullying Dong Dong En. There are also many photos taken of Dong Dong En being followed. They try to call Dong Dong En to urge caution as they believe Dong Dong En is in danger and want to go pick them up. However, Dong Dong En feels it's not necessary and suggests meeting at the bar.
Lou Yuan arrives at the bar and notices someone outside secretly taking pictures. Dong Dong En says they are already used to it. Lou Yuan wants Dong Dong En to hide for a while and let them handle the situation, but Dong Dong En disagrees. They feel that if they hide, they will be more like a canary, and they must face this issue themselves.
Dong Dong En returns home, and Hai Mei also comes over. Lou Yuan sent Hai Mei to accompany Dong Dong En. Hai Mei advises Dong Dong En not to read those online comments. Dong Dong En admits that they can't help but read them. Since their engagement, there have been many such messages online, and they don't know who they have offended.
Dong Dong En received a phone call from his parents, who advised him not to pay attention to the online rumors and to focus on living his own life. This made Dong Dong En cry uncontrollably. Ke Mao Xu woke up and learned that Han's Group had invested in their company. He immediately became anxious because Han Chun's father owned the company. Han Chun had initially left his father's company to start his own business with Ke Mao Xu, and going back now would surely cause problems.
Li Li An informed them that Wu Zong had invited them to have dinner tonight but will be leaving for another place tomorrow. Lou Yuan's mother came over with some items and said that Lou Yuan shouldn't rush into getting married and that she would help with the preparations. She mentioned that the items were meant for Dong Dong En. However, Lou Yuan assured her that they were aware of the situation and asked her not to bother.
Ke Mao Xu and the others went to see Han Chun, and Han Chun's father treated them to a meal. He looked down on their small and insignificant company and stated that this meal was their farewell dinner. He questioned what they could bring to Han Chun and whether they could take responsibility for his son's life. Ke Mao Xu and the others didn't know how to respond. Ke Mao Xu later told Dong Dong En about the situation and expressed the need to come up with a plan, as mere persuasion wouldn't be enough.
Lou Yuan had dinner with Wu Zong and consumed a considerable amount of alcohol. Li Li An then took Lou Yuan back to her own house and claimed to be Dong Dong En. Lou Yuan didn't believe her and stated that she wasn't Dong Dong En. The next day, when Lou Yuan woke up, Li Li An expressed her confusion about why Lou Yuan didn't choose her and believed that he should know what would be more beneficial for him. Lou Yuan directly rejected her and acknowledged that the online rumors were spread by Li Li An, urging her to stop.
Lou Yuan brought Han Chun's father over and spoke highly of Dong Dong En's company, hoping that Han Chun's father would listen to their explanation. Han Chun's father agreed to give Lou Yuan some face and came to the location mentioned as "捌二". Dong Dong En and the others showed Han Chun's father the photos they took and presented their case studies.
