Episode 2 recap: Mysterious figure Zhou Lin suddenly appeared at the funeral.
Dai Qi Ye died in a car accident, and the sudden turn of events caused a halt to the "Sunshine Project." There were already issues of disunity among the bank presidents, and now they were quick to speculate that Dai Qi Ye had committed suicide out of fear, attempting to condemn him through public opinion before the results were even out. Su Jian Ren, one of Dai Qi Ye's students, naturally couldn't stand these people's malicious words and got into an argument with them on the spot. The situation momentarily spiraled out of control, and Zhao Hui had no choice but to hastily end the meeting.
Meanwhile, Zhao Hui's daughter, Zhao Rui, suffered from worsening eye problems, which put him in a bad mood. The early death of his wife, Li Ying, left him and his daughter relying on each other, making his daughter the only concern he had in this world. Shen Jing noticed her husband's low spirits and worried that he might get entangled in the situation, but Xie Zhi Yuan firmly denied it.
At Dai Qi Ye's funeral, since many classmates came to pay their respects, Shen Jing did not accompany Xie Zhi Yuan. Ou Yang Lao Shi thanked everyone on behalf of the family and had in-depth conversations with Zhao Hui and others after the ceremony.
Zhao Hui, Miao Che, Su Jian Ren, and Xie Zhi Yuan were all Dai Qi Ye's talented students and had achieved significant success in their respective fields. Ou Yang Lao Shi understood their personalities and warned them to cherish their reputation and uphold their principles.
Later, they saw a woman outside who bore a striking resemblance to Li Ying, especially Zhao Hui, who froze on the spot as if in another world. Xie Zhi Yuan revealed that the woman's name was Zhou Lin, and he had also previously mistaken her for Li Ying. Although Xie Zhi Yuan expressed willingness to introduce Zhou Lin to Zhao Hui, Zhao Hui decisively refused.
After attending Dai Qi Ye's funeral, the four of them gathered for a meal at a nearby restaurant. Xie Zhi Yuan tried to please Zhao Hui in order to gain his approval for several trust products, but Zhao Hui remained unmoved. Su Jian Ren was evidently the one with the strongest family background among the four and, at the same time, the most naive and easily influenced by Xie Zhi Yuan.
In contrast, Miao Che had a clear mind and had a better relationship with Zhao Hui, so he disregarded Xie Zhi Yuan's actions.
After a satisfying meal, Zhao Hui, Miao Che, Xie Zhi Yuan, and Su Jian Ren each got into their cars and left.
Su Jian Ren expressed dissatisfaction with Miao Che's elite attitude, while Xie Zhi Yuan echoed and boasted about his influence, claiming that if Su Jian Ren wanted to become a bank president, no one else would be a match for him. Besides, Xie Zhi Yuan revealed that he indeed knew Zhou Lin and that he could immediately bring her in front of Zhao Hui with just a word from him.
On the other hand, Zhao Hui, fueled by alcohol, mentioned Dai Qi Ye's cause of death and suspected it to be related to Jiaxiang Industrial. Otherwise, considering Cao Jia Xiang's relationship with Dai Qi Ye, why wouldn't he come to bid his old friend farewell? Feeling increasingly frustrated the more he thought about it, Zhao Hui insisted on having Miao Che investigate the matter, and Miao Che agreed.
Meanwhile, Cao Jia Xiang was crying alone in his office. A few days later, the job assignment notice was announced. Due to only two available positions in the Public Department, the competition was fierce, and everyone was curious about the content of the list. Surprisingly, Cheng Jiayuan, who had mediocre qualifications, was selected. Colleagues questioned this, but Cheng Jiayuan remained silent.
Although Tao Wu Ji felt disappointed inside, he personally helped his friend pack up and accompanied him to report to the Public Department. Cheng Jiayuan apologized to Tao Wu Ji, who comforted him and advised him not to burden himself mentally. Su Jian Ren reviewed Cheng Jiayuan's resume and felt that such a person had no potential for growth. He handed him over to Lao Ma for training while reminding Cheng Jiayuan to cherish the opportunity. The Public Department never kept any deadweight, and Su Jian Ren hoped that Cheng Jiayuan would prove himself with his abilities in future work.
Tian Xiao Hui failed her job interview, and her mother decided to take her to visit their cousin in the hope that she could introduce job opportunities in a trust company. Although Tian Xiao Hui was reluctant to trouble others, she had no choice but to accompany her mother to the Shen family at her mother's insistence. While helping out in the kitchen, Tian Xiao Hui mistakenly thought Shen Jing was a nanny, but the two of them had a pleasant conversation.
At that moment, a minor disagreement broke out between Tian's mother and Shen's mother. Tian Xiao Hui quickly came out to mediate and unexpectedly discovered that Shen Jing was her cousin.
