Episode 19 recap: Mother diagnosed with cancer and laid off herself?
Wu Yun was at work when the supervisor suddenly brought good news. It turned out that the department's approval rate reached 100%, and Wu Yun's masquerade ball received unanimous praise from everyone. However, things weren't going well for Dong Jia Xi. First, Dong Jia Xi's boss was called in by the boss and scolded. Immediately after the boss came out, Dong Jia Xi was called in. Dong Jia Xi instinctively felt afraid, and as expected, it wasn't good news when he went in. The boss criticized Dong Jia Xi's document from formatting to content. Despite Dong Jia Xi explaining his ideas to the leader again, the boss remained angry. Dong Jia Xi only said he would go back and make changes, but colleagues said there was no need to change, and Dong Jia Xi couldn't understand.
Wu Yun and colleagues were cleaning up dog feces in the community when dog owners not only felt no shame for Wu Yun's work but also said they would give their dogs to Wu Yun after they finished defecating. They even asked what time the cleaning team would come. Wu Yun was speechless, and colleagues were shocked too. They didn't understand why these residents had no understanding and sense of responsibility for maintaining public environment. Instead, they thought it was all taken for granted.
On the other hand, Gou Dan Dan was discussing a new collaboration with a client. After seeing that Gou Dan Dan was pregnant and still in good condition, the client hoped that Gou Dan Dan could create a high-end image where pregnant women could be just like ordinary people. Gou Dan Dan was puzzled and explained the difficulties of pregnancy. After that, she left with Qi Pu, who was playing the piano in the distance.
As for Zhang Pei, Liu Feng continued to work hard, and the public account was doing well. However, rumors about Liu Feng being the mastermind behind it all persisted among colleagues and even intensified. When Zhang Pei talked to Liu Feng about this, Liu Feng didn't care at all. Zhang Pei asked why, and Liu Feng said he wanted to help Zhang Pei return to Beijing. Zhang Pei didn't understand, but Liu Feng expressed his desire to go to Beijing together with Zhang Pei. Then Liu Feng reminded Zhang Pei to look at the gift he left on the table before leaving. Zhang Pei looked at the shoes and greeting card Liu Feng bought for him and fell into contemplation.
Not long after, Zhang Pei received a call from a childhood friend asking him to come over and hang out. Zhang Pei initially wanted to refuse, but when he heard that his friend sounded a little drunk, he decided to go. Upon arrival, Zhang Pei only saw his friend alone. Zhang Pei then asked about the whereabouts of his friend's child, but his friend evaded the question and mumbled that the child was taken away by her boyfriend. Zhang Pei started to worry, while his friend seemed unconcerned. Zhang Pei urged her to make a phone call to confirm what was happening. After the call, his friend handed the phone to Zhang Pei, who confirmed that the child had indeed returned home, putting his mind at ease.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Pei urged his intoxicated friend to go home. At that moment, Xie Yang appeared, and the two of them helped the friend back home. When they arrived, it was the friend's father who opened the door. After setting the friend down, Zhang Pei and Xie Yang were about to leave, but it seemed that the friend's father had something to say. Unexpectedly, he started drinking heavily. Xie Yang was going to drive, so Zhang Pei stepped forward and offered to accompany the uncle for a drink. The uncle began talking about how difficult his job was and how the friend didn't understand at all. Zhang Pei initially listened attentively, but as he got drunk, he disregarded their relationship and started lecturing the uncle. Xie Yang tried to offer peanuts to calm the situation, but it didn't work! Finally, Zhang Pei and Xie Yang left. As soon as they stepped out, Zhang Pei began to regret interfering too much that day. Xie Yang just smiled, and then Zhang Pei bravely stood up for someone again, but luckily Xie Yang stopped him, otherwise, a fight might have broken out!
The next day, Xie Yang showed concern for Zhang Pei, but Zhang Pei had completely forgotten about it and just laughed at Xie Yang's teasing. Liu Feng silently watched Zhang Pei acting crazy. Meanwhile, Dong Jia Xi had to find time to take care of his mother at the hospital while balancing his work. With Gou Dan Dan's help, Qi Pu's restaurant was gradually gaining momentum.
Dong Jia Xi was working as usual when he unexpectedly saw the CEO coming over. After the meeting, the bosses announced the news of layoffs, and Dong Jia Xi panicked. By the evening, when Dong Jia Xi went to the hospital again, he was already in a state of unemployment!
