Episode 36 recap: Zhang Pei stayed in Chengdu for development.

Three months ago, when Dong Jia Xi slept in the hospital with her mother, Teacher Ding told Dong Jia Xi that she wanted to bid farewell to this world, and thus, there was a scene of everyone arranging Teacher Ding's funeral. At the funeral, Teacher Ding hid behind and observed the students and relatives who came to attend the funeral. At that moment, Teacher Ding suddenly felt hungry. Xi Xi's father handed an apple to Teacher Ding and then went out to attend to his duties. Unexpectedly, a child barged in. The child immediately recognized Teacher Ding as the lady in the photo. Despite Teacher Ding's request not to reveal it, the child still mentioned it. Everyone was stunned to see Teacher Ding standing there alive and well.

Meanwhile, Zhang Pei's collaboration finally succeeded, and everyone celebrated by having hot pot together. Someone asked if Zhang Pei was going back to Beijing. Zhang Pei said it had been a year and it was time for her to go back and visit. Then Liu Feng also mentioned that she had already submitted an application to transfer to Beijing and was waiting for a response from Beijing. Colleagues were surprised, but Liu Feng stated that she had already made up her mind.

After it was over, Xie Yang accompanied Zhang Pei to his home. Zhang Pei, who was a bit tipsy, said that she was planning to go back to Chengdu for development, but Xie Yang expressed that he didn't want the person he loved to have regrets. Wu Yun also left for the mountainous area to work as a village cadre. The sisters accompanied Wu Yun to the roadside, and unexpectedly, a group of elderly people gathered to see her off. They were indignant about the injustice Wu Yun had suffered from Liu Wen Shan. At that moment, Liu Wen Shan appeared behind them. Wu Yun shyly announced that she and Liu Wen Shan had reconciled, and they left together. The elderly people could only wish Wu Yun happiness.

Dong Jia Xi enjoyed the hot pot her father made, and their relationship finally repaired. Her father cautiously suggested that she come home to visit him during the Chinese New Year, and Dong Jia Xi eagerly nodded in agreement. Zhang Pei and Liu Feng arrived at Qi Xiao Guan. This time, Zhang Pei brought some cultural and creative items for a competition with Liu Feng. Liu Feng cautiously probed Zhang Pei's opinion of her and received a "Good Person Card" as a response. However, when faced with Xie Yang, Zhang Pei couldn't find any particular reason to choose him. Later, Liu Feng poured water directly on the cultural and creative items, clearly indicating her victory. As a punishment, Liu Feng recorded a video of Zhang Pei and took the opportunity to give her a gift she had prepared for a long time before leaving.

Zhang Pei looked at the things on the table, which were things she mentioned casually, but Liu Feng took them to heart! Liu Wen Shan helped Wu Yun pack up things in the house. When it was time for Liu Wen Shan to leave, it started raining outside. Wu Yun held an umbrella and accompanied Liu Wen Shan to the car. On the way, they encountered an elderly man collecting his belongings that were being dried. They immediately went over to help. However, as a result, Liu Wen Shan missed the bus back to Chengdu. With no other option, Liu Wen Shan had to stay, and both of them couldn't sleep even though they were separated by a curtain.

The next morning, the two of them were awakened by the sound of someone calling "Sister." Wu Yun instinctively wanted to hide Liu Wen Shan, but Liu Wen Shan was confused. After opening the door, they realized it was Wu Yun's younger brother who came to visit Wu Yun. Wu Yun introduced both sides, and there was a slight awkwardness in the atmosphere. Later, the three of them went out together. Wu Yun's brother even helped the old man who raised chickens to treat a sick chick! Dong Jia Xi went to find Yin Le, and Yin Le deliberately created an atmosphere. Both of them understood each other's intentions. Dong Jia Xi vaguely expressed that they could still be together even if they were thousands of miles apart. However, Yin Le said that he preferred the feeling of being able to touch each other. Later, Yin Le came out with a bouquet of flowers, and finally, Dong Jia Xi left, but the flowers and the ring were left behind.

Yin Le recalled the words that Teacher Ding had told him before. Dong Jia Xi would not stay peacefully; she belonged to a farther place. Zhang Pei returned to Beijing, and Qi Pu frequently went to take care of Gou Dan Dan. Wu Yun and Liu Wen Shan's relationship remained strong. Zhang Pei reported back to the company, and besides submitting a work summary, Zhang Pei also mentioned to the leaders about her desire to stay in Chengdu for development. After returning to the residential area, Zhang Pei unexpectedly heard someone calling her name. It turned out to be Xie Yang. Xie Yang had come to Beijing for several days without Zhang Pei's knowledge. Xie Yang mentioned that he had experienced Zhang Pei's life and decided to stay in Beijing. However, Zhang Pei expressed her intention to go back. Both of them embarked on their respective journeys.

A year later, everyone visited Teacher Ding's grave. In front of the tombstone, everyone paired up, except for Liu Feng and Dong Jia Xi. Xie Yang proposed to Zhang Pei under Teacher Ding's witness. At that time, Teacher Ding had instructed everyone during her own funeral, emphasizing the need for Yin Le and Dong Jia Xi to take care of each other. But now, Dong Jia Xi had also become alone.

After everyone left, Yin Le also came to visit Teacher Ding! (End of the drama)
