Episode 2 recap: Gou Dan Dan discovered her boyfriend cheating when she proposed.
Zhang Pei just arrived at her new home with the cleaner when she opened the door and found a man sitting on the sofa. Zhang Pei was instantly stunned. The man claimed to be a tenant of the place, and Zhang Pei realized that the situation was not simple. She immediately called the previous landlord, who answered the phone and said that they had already made arrangements with someone else. Zhang Pei handed the phone to the tenant, who explained that it was not intentional, but they couldn't find another place in such a short time, and their lease hadn't expired yet. Zhang Pei felt a headache listening to all this. Meanwhile, the tenant's girlfriend also came out, looking distressed. The cleaner and the sofa mover started urging Zhang Pei, and to her surprise, the tenant and his girlfriend went back into the bedroom!
On the other hand, Gou Dan Dan called the police directly. After understanding the situation, the police realized it was a scene of infidelity. After mediating, they left. Gou Dan Dan kicked the cheating couple out of the house immediately! As for Zhang Pei, she finally managed to reach a resolution with both parties. She temporarily placed their belongings on the balcony, and the tenant promised to find a new place as soon as possible. Then Zhang Pei sat in a taxi with her minimal luggage, planning to contact the previous landlord and stay a few more days in the old house.
Gou Dan Dan was still in a state of heartbreak, with her mind filled with the anticipation of a wonderful life with her boyfriend in their new home. Her close friends were unaware of the situation and jokingly asked if Gou Dan Dan's proposal had been successful. Suddenly, the landlord called to tell Gou Dan Dan to move out. Her immediate reaction was to refuse and argue with the landlord, explaining that they had just moved in. However, as she made the call, Gou Dan Dan opened the refrigerator and saw the items her boyfriend had labeled for her, which made her even more upset. She reluctantly agreed to move out at the landlord's request.
Meanwhile, Dong Jia Xi's play proceeded as planned. Her mother in the audience was moved to tears and couldn't recover from her emotions for a long time. However, despite her words, she didn't let Gou Dan Dan off easily and bluntly stated that she had to go back to work now; otherwise, the whole family would be left penniless. Saying that, she got into a taxi heading to the airport.
Zhang Pei was still troubled by the house situation when a colleague came over to persuade her to consider going to Chengdu. They pointed out that buying a house and settling down still seemed far off. Zhang Pei fell silent, deep in thought.
Gou Dan Dan was packing her things and feeling very sad. On the other hand, Wu Yun's family was celebrating Wu Yun's success in becoming a civil servant in Chengdu. Gou Dan Dan's parents were also present, and they all sent messages to Gou Dan Dan. Gou Dan Dan shared what she was eating but refused to video chat. After replying to the messages, Gou Dan Dan immediately started looking at flight tickets back to Chengdu.
Wu Yun finally finished packing and headed to the airport. Upon arriving, they realized their luggage was overweight. They had to open their suitcase on the spot and remove some items. To their surprise, they found many things that their parents had packed, including a chicken. They couldn't take out everything, but Wu Yun's mother managed to sneak two corn cobs, which Wu Yun loved, into their bag while they weren't paying attention.
Gou Dan Dan landed in Chengdu quickly. At that moment, she received a message from her parents saying they were going on a trip. She ignored the apology message from her boyfriend. Wu Yun arrived at the pre-rented house, and their parents arrived shortly after. Unlike Gou Dan Dan, Wu Yun had local roommates and their parents accompanying them. In comparison, Wu Yun felt even lonelier. However, while unpacking, Wu Yun saw the two corn cobs that their mother had packed, and their heart felt warm. They didn't feel as lonely anymore.
Zhang Pei called her client Luo Wei and was shocked to hear that Luo Wei had passed away. They were not only clients but also friends. Zhang Pei suddenly remembered that Luo Wei had shared their home password with them. In that moment, the connection between the two single women living in Beijing seemed stronger. Zhang Pei then took Luo Wei's parents to Luo Wei's home and helped with some arrangements. On the way back, Zhang Pei contemplated a lot. At that moment, their mother called and offered to sell her own house to help Zhang Pei with the monthly mortgage payments. Zhang Pei looked at the sunset and then immersed themselves in work. After thinking all night, Zhang Pei finally decided to return to Chengdu.
Wu Yun quickly reported to the local authorities and Zhang Pei returned to Chengdu after having a farewell dinner with colleagues. As soon as Zhang Pei landed, they called Gou Dan Dan, who hadn't been active for a while. Gou Dan Dan mentioned that she was still on her honeymoon, but after hanging up, she suddenly felt nauseous and vomited.
