Episode 13 recap: "Gu Yan Zhi's experimental data was stolen, and Lao Sui served Gu Yan Zhi a dismissal notice.
Gu Yan Zhi and Lao Sui spent the night in the car, freezing cold without being able to turn on the air conditioner. They finally endured until dawn. Song Ranran, who didn't spend the night with Gu Yan Zhi, went for a walk early in the morning and unexpectedly encountered Lu Fei Yan outside the resort. Song Ranran thought that Lu Fei Yan came to the resort because of her, so she directly told Lu Fei Yan that the person she liked was Gu Yan Zhi and asked Lu Fei Yan not to overthink it.
Lu Fei Yan said he came to help Song Ranran with her love life, but when he heard that Gu Yan Zhi was with Yan Mo, he angrily went to confront Gu Yan Zhi. Lu Fei Yan hit Gu Yan Zhi, but Yan Mo protected Gu Yan Zhi, so Lu Fei Yan had to leave angrily. However, Song Ranran thought that Lu Fei Yan fought with Gu Yan Zhi because of her and felt pleased with her own charm.
Song Ranran didn't realize that she misunderstood the situation and felt a unique familiarity with Lu Fei Yan. She couldn't understand what Lu Fei Yan was saying but still went back with him, assuming things. Yan Mo wanted to explain for Lu Fei Yan, but Gu Yan Zhi didn't care about it and only wanted to know the relationship between Lu Fei Yan and Yan Mo.
Lu Fei Yan and Song Ranran left, and Zhou Han Zhang insisted on leaving with Gu Si Yu. Gu Yan Zhi lied about his car being broken and insisted on going back with Lao Sui and Yan Mo. Gu Yan Zhi refused to sit in the passenger seat, and Lao Sui refused to leave Yan Mo, so the three of them squeezed back to the company together.
General Zhao secretly manipulated the data of the second-phase experiment and gave it to someone else to advance the third-phase experiment, using it as leverage against Lao Sui and Gu Yan Zhi. Gu Yan Zhi maintained the same attitude and refused to proceed with the third-phase experiment. Lao Sui also stated that he wouldn't make a decision without knowing the full circumstances. Therefore, when the board members expressed their intention to withdraw funding, they didn't make a statement.
Gu Yan Zhi was reading documents at a fried chicken shop, while Xiao Zi Bai and others were discussing the board of directors' matter while having a meal, fearing that the withdrawal of funding by the board would affect the company's operations. Xiao Zi Bai felt guilty and didn't dare to say anything while other colleagues were discussing it. Yan Mo continued the experiment in a different way due to the violation, fearing that Gu Yan Zhi would still suffer because of it. Therefore, she had to find a way to stop this from happening and inform Gu Yan Zhi about Xiao Zi Bai being the mole."
"General Zhao once again pressured Lao Sui, stating that over half of the board members agreed to replace Lao Sui as the CEO. If Lao Sui couldn't resolve Gu Yan Zhi's issue, he would be dismissed. Just as Yan Mo was about to tell Gu Yan Zhi about Xiao Zi Bai being the mole, Lao Sui came to find Gu Yan Zhi, which made Yan Mo uncomfortable because she was there.
Gu Yan Zhi had a conversation with Xiao Zi Bai while holding the data from the other company. He had a bad feeling about the situation, but he didn't suspect Xiao Zi Bai, which worried Yan Mo. Before Yan Mo could come up with a way to make Gu Yan Zhi believe her, Lao Sui took Wei Wei and went to pressure Gu Yan Zhi, demanding him to proceed with the third-phase experiment, otherwise he would be dismissed.
Gu Yan Zhi refused to compromise, so Lao Sui had no choice but to present him with a dismissal notice and announce internally at the research institute that Gu Yan Zhi's position would be filled from among the senior researchers. Lao Sui compromised with General Zhao, and Wei Wei was tasked with ensuring that the person who would replace Gu Yan Zhi was their ally.
Gao Meng and Xiao Zi Bai competed for the new position, and Xiao Zi Bai included the stolen data in her report for the competition. However, she didn't realize that she fell into a trap and was busy cooperating with Wei Wei to seize control of the research institute.
Yan Mo wanted to make Gu Yan Zhi believe her, so she deliberately followed Xiao Zi Bai. She saw Xiao Zi Bai meeting with Wei Wei, but she didn't see Wei Wei's face clearly and didn't know who he was. After Xiao Zi Bai and Wei Wei's meeting, Yan Mo attempted to trick Xiao Zi Bai to stop harming Gu Yan Zhi, but Xiao Zi Bai didn't fall for it. Yan Mo had no choice but to find Gu Yan Zhi and try to make him believe Xiao Zi Bai's betrayal.
Lao Sui and Gu Yan Zhi had already planned to use the method of pressuring to force the person who leaked the data to reveal themselves, and Xiao Zi Bai unknowingly fell into the trap, exposing her true colors. Lao Sui presented the evidence to Gu Yan Zhi, explaining the situation of the mole, when Yan Mo came running to Gu Yan Zhi, demanding that he must believe her.
Seeing that Lao Sui was also with Gu Yan Zhi, Yan Mo repeatedly reminded Lao Sui not to be at odds with Gu Yan Zhi. However, they said that the institute's problem had been resolved."
