Episode 14 recap: Gu Yan Zhi and Lao Sui joined forces to expose the mole, Gu Si Yu, while Gu Si Yu advised Little O to switch jobs.
Yan Mo was confused about the situation, so Lao Sui and Gu Yan Zhi explained the cause and effect to Yan Mo. Lao Sui found out that the progress of the competing company's experiments was far behind theirs and they were also facing the problem of researchers leaving. They couldn't even complete Phase One of the experiment, let alone make a breakthrough in Phase Two. So he understood that someone was manipulating things behind the scenes, not only to get rid of Gu Yan Zhi but also to get rid of him.
Lao Sui showed the evidence to Gu Yan Zhi, who immediately understood that the person betraying them was either Xiao Zi Bai or Gao Meng. They staged a play to lure out the mole. Yan Mo learned the truth and realized that Lao Sui and Gu Yan Zhi were still good friends, so she relaxed and left Gu Yan Zhi's house.
Due to Yan Mo's excessive concern for Gu Yan Zhi and their previous acquaintance, Lao Sui started suspecting whether Yan Mo had chosen Gu Yan Zhi. Song Ranran wanted to meet Lu Fei Yan, so she used the excuse of having tea to directly approach him.
When Song Ranran went to find Lu Fei Yan, she happened to see another woman having tea with him. She became extremely jealous and confronted the woman, driving her away. Because of Song Ranran's actions, Lu Fei Yan understood that she had lost interest in Gu Yan Zhi, so he decided to go back and find Yan Mo and come up with a plan.
Lu Fei Yan analyzed that Song Ranran had a strong possessiveness and wanted to use this weakness to create a competitor for her, making her focus on Gu Yan Zhi. Lu Fei Yan asked Yan Mo to pretend to be this competitor. Yan Mo was afraid of falling into the same trap again and didn't want to be the competitor, but there was no other choice, so she reluctantly took on the role.
When Song Ranran went to have tea with Lu Fei Yan again, Yan Mo deliberately called Lu Fei Yan, pretending that she was going to confess her feelings to Gu Yan Zhi, in order to provoke Song Ranran. Upon hearing that Yan Mo was going to confess, Song Ranran immediately rushed to Gu Yan Zhi's office, while Yan Mo arrived at Gu Yan Zhi's office first, waiting for Song Ranran to appear.
As soon as Song Ranran arrived, Yan Mo pretended to throw herself at Gu Yan Zhi, causing Song Ranran to push Yan Mo away in haste. Yan Mo succeeded and left Gu Yan Zhi's office directly, while Song Ranran loudly confessed her feelings to Gu Yan Zhi, wanting to be with him.
Gu Yan Zhi didn't have time to respond to Song Ranran and went after Yan Mo to figure out what was going on.
Yan Mo was afraid to face Gu Yan Zhi, so she coldly expressed that she really wished for Gu Yan Zhi and Song Ranran to be together, and asked Gu Yan Zhi not to bother her anymore, driving Gu Yan Zhi away.
Little O went to Gu Si Yu's company to deliver food and happened to encounter their programmer fixing a vulnerability. The programmer also made a coding mistake, so Little O couldn't help but lend a hand. Little O fixed the vulnerability in five minutes, and Gu Si Yu was particularly impressed. She directly offered Little O a job at her company, but Little O refused and didn't want to switch jobs.
Zhou Han Zhang wanted to pursue Gu Si Yu and pressured Little O to switch jobs, but Little O kept refusing. The programmers at Gu Si Yu's company couldn't solve her problem, and she couldn't find more skilled programmers. Then she thought of Little O, who was a genius.
Gu Si Yu wanted Little O's help, so she ordered fried chicken for delivery and tricked Little O into coming to their company. Then she lied and claimed to have a high fever, asking Little O to solve the vulnerability issue. Little O was very concerned about Gu Si Yu and quickly resolved the vulnerability. He wanted to take Gu Si Yu to the hospital but discovered that Gu Si Yu had lied about being sick.
Little O was heartbroken and felt deceived by Gu Si Yu. He returned to the fried chicken restaurant unhappily and complained about how humans deceive each other in front of Yan Mo. Gu Si Yu saw that Little O was upset and wanted to apologize to him but didn't know what to say. She kept practicing outside the fried chicken restaurant.
After hearing Yan Mo's words, Little O thought that humans lie because they're afraid of rejection. He also felt uneasy inside, so he forgave Gu Si Yu. Little O forgave Gu Si Yu and expressed that he wouldn't reject any of Gu Si Yu's requests but still refused to work at Gu Si Yu's company.
Gu Si Yu tried to persuade Little O and offered him generous benefits, but Little O stated that his desire was to deliver fried chicken and make good fried chicken. He had no interest in what Gu Si Yu said. There was no historical indication, which made Yan Mo extremely worried. She was afraid that if they didn't resolve the issue of unauthorized experiments, Gu Yan Zhi's crisis would remain unresolved.
General Zhao made a fortune in the stock market using scandals, but he still didn't give up on the experiment. So he planned to manipulate Lao Sui, who had feelings for Yan Mo, and find a way to turn Lao Sui against them.
