Episode 21 recap: Wu Yun's secret crush was discovered.
Wu Yun's secret crush was discovered.Wu Yun chased after the emotionally agitated little girl all the way to the bridge. The girl impulsively sat on the railing, as if she was about to jump off. Wu Yun stood by, afraid that something might happen. Despite Wu Yun's attempts to console her, the girl couldn't listen to any words of comfort.
At that moment, the girl's mother also arrived, equally furious and uttering harsh words. Seeing her mother approach, the girl became even more upset. Wu Yun had no choice but to intercept the girl's mother and keep her at a distance. Eventually, the girl's emotions calmed down. Wu Yun seized the opportunity to guide her into expressing her thoughts. The girl bluntly stated that Wu Yun wouldn't understand. In response, Wu Yun decided to share their own story, emphasizing that having feelings for someone doesn't necessarily mean being together, as the other person might get married. Liu Wen Shan was nearby, listening attentively. It seemed that Liu Wen Shan now understood why Wu Yun hadn't responded to their messages. After a long while, the girl finally agreed to come down and go home with her mother. The crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only Wu Yun and Liu Wen Shan by the lake.
Liu Wen Shan noticed there were fallen leaves on Wu Yun's head and tried to help remove them. However, Wu Yun instinctively dodged. Then, Liu Wen Shan deliberately brought up the fact that "Liu Ge" and his sister-in-law were on their honeymoon. Only then did Wu Yun realize that the person getting married had the surname Liu, not Liu Wen Shan! Wu Yun couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Dong Jia Xi noticed their mother writing something and asked what it was. It turned out that their mother was writing a novel. It was a New Year tradition for their father to have their mother write down ten wishes to be fulfilled one by one. As Dong Jia Xi read through the wishes, they unexpectedly discovered that one of them was for Dong Jia Xi to pass the certified public accountant exam. Dong Jia Xi asked their mother if they could choose an easier wish. When their mother casually suggested finding a partner, Dong Jia Xi immediately retreated to their room to "study."
Zhang Pei's parents also began preparing for the New Year. They anticipated having many guests at home since Zhang Pei had come back this year, so they bought even more New Year goods. Qi Pu also sent flowers to Gou Dan Dan, which he had bought at the flower and bird market. When Gou Dan Dan claimed she didn't have time to take care of them, Qi Pu directly offered to help. Gou Dan Dan instantly said she could manage them herself.
Zhang Pei and Xie Yang met up. Both of them couldn't accept the fact that their one-armed old classmate had been diagnosed with bone cancer again. They were both deeply saddened and couldn't understand why it had to be him. After gathering their thoughts, they finally mustered the courage to go upstairs and visit their old classmate. When they saw him, they pretended to be relaxed and comforted him. However, their old classmate seemed indifferent and revealed that he had already undergone two surgeries, but the cancer had returned upon reexamination. Zhang Pei then suggested taking a copy of the medical records to help find other treatment options. While Zhang Pei's parents went to retrieve the records, the old classmate asked Xie Yang to take out a bank card from the drawer and even shared the PIN number. Both Zhang Pei and Xie Yang declined, but the old classmate insisted, hoping to have a backup plan for his parents' financial security after his passing. Zhang Pei eventually agreed to take on this responsibility.
Dong Jia Xi had been receiving scam calls lately, and unexpectedly, they received a call from the police station. At that time, Zhang Pei had already started working on an insurance plan for their old classmate's parents. When Dong Jia Xi arrived at the police station, they had no idea what was going on. It wasn't until they were questioned by the police that they realized something was wrong with their part-time job. According to the police, the employer had been spreading false information online. Fortunately, Dong Jia Xi hadn't received any payment, but all the accounts linked to their ID had been blocked. Dong Jia Xi felt upset about their anonymous account being suspended and coincidentally encountered the customer who had caused them to lose their job previously. The customer greeted Dong Jia Xi, which made them even more upset, and they ended up scolding the customer before leaving.
Wu Yun received a call from their younger brother, informing them that there was a fire at home. Wu Yun panicked and immediately wanted to book a flight back. Fortunately, Liu Wen Shan calmed down and called the fire department. They stayed with Wu Yun until they received a call confirming that their family was safe. In the end, both Wu Yun and Liu Wen Shan had to stay in Chengdu for the New Year shift.
Zhang Pei had already sent the plan to their old classmate, but their emotions couldn't be calmed. Later, they gathered their close friends and went singing to celebrate New Year's Eve. Each of them had their own concerns, especially Dong Jia Xi, whose unhappiness was noticed by their friends. However, Dong Jia Xi briefly dismissed the matter to prevent others from worrying.
After the New Year's celebration, when the group of friends parted ways, Dong Jia Xi intended to take a stroll alone but unexpectedly received a call from the person who had caused them to lose their job as a scriptwriter.
