Episode 14 recap: Qin Zhao developed an interest in Lanxi.
Qin Ziyue became infatuated with Qin Zhao but lacked the courage to ask him out. Lanxi advised Qin Ziyue to muster up the courage, stating that there would be no opportunity otherwise. Qin Ziyue then invited Qin Zhao to go on a picnic in the park. Qin Zhao's initial reaction was to ask if Lanxi would join them and even came up with the excuse of finding three people to play landlord (a card game). At this point, Lanxi felt that Qin Zhao was not reliable and didn't want Qin Ziyue to get involved. However, Qin Ziyue had finally encountered someone he liked and was unwilling to give up easily.
Lanxi had no choice but to give Qin Ziyue some advice. She suggested that Qin Ziyue make up an excuse, claiming that she had a sudden matter to attend to and couldn't go. As a result, Qin Ziyue and Qin Zhao found themselves in an awkward situation, exchanging glances and unsure of what to do. Later, Qin Zhao tactfully mentioned that he wanted to find inspiration and asked Qin Ziyue to talk about Lanxi. However, Qin Ziyue felt it was inappropriate, further intensifying the awkward atmosphere between them.
On the weekend, Qin Zhixing hesitated for a long time and sent a message to Lanxi, wanting to invite her to have a meal together. Lanxi didn't want to discuss work on the weekend and especially didn't want to meet with her boss. Just as Qin Zhixing was thinking about how to persuade Lanxi, Tang Tianjing came to Qin's house.
It turned out that Qin's mother was very fond of Tang Tianjing, considering her to be well-behaved and sensible. She wanted Qin Zhixing and Tang Tianjing to go out together to visit an art exhibition. Qin Zhixing came up with an excuse, claiming that she had already seen the exhibition, but Tang Tianjing immediately extended an invitation to Qin's mother. As a result, Qin's mother went to change her clothes, preparing to go out together. Tang Tianjing confided in Qin Zhixing, expressing her desire for maternal love, as she had grown up with her father. She felt a special closeness to Qin's mother, but she had no intentions of crossing any boundaries.
Seeing the situation, Qin Zhixing realized it was best not to interfere too much and left first. Qin Zhao shamelessly asked Qin Ziyue to give him a ride home and immediately approached Lanxi upon seeing her. However, Lanxi showed no interest in him whatsoever.
