Episode 10 recap: Guo Guo went missing and was brought back by Jiang Xi.
Wei Ming admitted that he was the whistleblower and did it to give Jiang Xi the assistant position. Even if he eventually exposed himself one day, he wouldn't regret it. Jiang Xi said that she already knew about it and had taken care of it. Wei Ming sincerely felt indebted to her for that. Jiang Xi stated that her goal was to make Wei Ming owe her for a lifetime.
Lin Shuang found Jiang Xi at her home. She said that she had destroyed the evidence of Wei Ming leaking confidential information. Lin Shuang was angry and questioned how she hadn't noticed Wei Ming's true nature after being by his side for so many years. She believed that Jiang Xi's sudden friendliness towards her at this critical moment meant that she had discovered something. Jiang Xi explained that her previous agreement to cooperate was to gauge her importance in Wei Ming's eyes, and now she was satisfied with the result. Gu Xu found Lin Shuang and questioned her if she was acting like a primary school student, always hiding when there was a problem. Lin Shuang bluntly asked why he was pretending to be a good person now when he had insulted her before. Gu Xu asked if it was because of the job interview incident, but Lin Shuang replied that not everyone can be like her. However, everyone has different responsibilities, and sacrifices have to be made for both family and work. Gu Xu clarified that his previous words were not targeted at her personally but rather because she had been away from the workplace for so long that she didn't understand the intricacies involved.
Colleagues in the workplace discussed gossip about Wei Ming, unaware that he overheard them. Everyone had to leave the conversation. Feng Kai expressed his desire to report his work to General Lin, but the secretary informed him that General Lin was busy these days. Colleagues also suspected that he was responsible for the situation, as the methods used were clearly inappropriate, even if it was for work purposes. Feng Kai approached Jiang Xi and said that he came to cooperate with her today. He mentioned that whatever Wei Ming promised her, he could offer as well, or at least Wei Ming was married while he was single, and she could stand by his side anytime and anywhere. Jiang Xi called him crazy, and Feng Kai argued that Wei Ming would never allow others to hold all the secrets, so cooperating with him was the best solution.
Jiang Xi found Wei Ming and asked if he wouldn't come back to her if she hadn't cleared the evidence. Wei Ming reassured her that it wasn't the case and she should have confidence in herself and their relationship. Jiang Hai mentioned that he bought breakfast for Jiang Xi, and she heard her mentioning Lin Shuang lately and asked if Lin Shuang had cast a spell on her. Wei Hai remained silent, and Jiang Xi bluntly stated that Lin Shuang was a married person and still acted that way. Wei Hai explained that he was aware of that but believed Lin Shuang was a good person, so he wanted her to apologize and reconcile with Lin Shuang.
Lin Shuang received a package from Xiao Qing and mentioned that she had already enrolled her in extracurricular studies. Lin Shuang thought she had only done her a small favor, but Xiao Qing had helped her a lot. Looking at Guo Guo, Lin Shuang realized what she should have been like and decided to pick up her textbooks and study again. Jiang Xi approached Feng Kai and told him that he was younger than Wei Ming and single, making him the best choice for her. Wei Ming visited Lin Shuang at home and shared a recipe for cooking crabs. Guo Guo stayed at home watching SpongeBob SquarePants, and her grandparents, focused on stocks, promised to buy her delicious food the next day before changing the channel.
Lin Shuang gave Wei Ming a massage device and asked her to help take care of Guo Guo the next day, explaining that she had something to attend to. Wei Ming agreed after Lin Shuang's explanation. Jiang Xi returned to the company, and her colleagues praised her for being a capable person. Jiang Xi received an email and became angry upon discovering that it was a harassing message from Feng Kai. She found Wei Ming and was eventually persuaded by her. Wei Mu didn't notice when Guo Guo went to play with other children and immediately called Lin Shuang after realizing she was missing. Everyone frantically searched for the child, but Jiang Xi found her first and immediately asked if she was hurt. Wei Ming immediately criticized Lin Shuang for not taking care of Guo Guo properly, and Lin Shuang explained that she had promised to pick up Guo Guo but ended up losing her. Wei Mu defended herself, saying that she couldn't help it if the phone didn't ring. Jiang Xi messaged Lin Shuang, telling her not to thank her too much for today's events and to just take care of Guo Guo. Wei Ming warned that showing goodwill at this time was definitely problematic, but Jiang Xi told her to focus on taking care of Guo Guo.
