Episode 16 recap: Xu Wei and Biao Lin Hong Mei got married.
Xu Wei, in charge of security at the bar, was attacked by someone nicknamed Radish. He went to Radish to demand a compensation of 2,000 yuan but ended up being beaten up by Radish and his gang. The incident escalated to the police station, but luckily it wasn't too serious. Lin Zhi Hua intervened and pulled Xu Wei out, advising him not to associate with those thugs to avoid future trouble.
Worried that Lin Hong Mei would find out, Xu Wei asked Lin Zhi Hua not to tell her about the incident. He also mentioned that Zhang Peng had returned during this time, but Lin Zhi Hua hadn't met him yet due to being busy. Lin Zhi Hua expressed that once she's done with her tasks, she plans to get Zhang Peng drunk.
Radish was captured and tied up by Xu Wei's people. Now realizing that he shouldn't mess with Xu Wei, Radish begged for mercy. Initially, Xu Wei only wanted Radish to compensate for the bar incident, but after Radish attacked him and his friends, Xu Wei couldn't let it slide. As a result, Xu Wei's friends gave Radish a thorough beating, causing him to scream in pain.
Today, Sun Hai Jie is retiring, and Lin Zhi Hua specially attended the retirement ceremony. Sun's colleague, Xiao Du, knew that Xu Wei was getting married today, and since Lin Zhi Hua is Xu Wei's brother-in-law, she insisted on getting Lin Zhi Hua drunk. Sun Hai Jie quickly tried to stop it.
Hou Hai Ying is Sun Hai Jie's old partner who has been transferred to Yan Yang Police Station to work. Lin Zhi Hua didn't like him because of his methods of extracting confessions from suspects, so there was no trace of welcome on her face. Xu Wei Biao finally married Lin Hong Mei as he wished. On the day of the wedding, he was so nervous that he forgot to address Lin Hong Mei's parents as "Mom" and "Dad," which led to teasing from everyone.
For the wedding, Xu Wei Biao chose a well-known and high-class restaurant in Yan Yang and decorated the venue in the latest trendy style, creating a festive atmosphere. Lin Hong Mei wore a white wedding dress and had a joyful smile on her face. Xu Wei Biao couldn't resist kissing her, which caused the guests to laugh good-naturedly.
As Xu Wei Biao recalled the hardships of pursuing his wife and looked at the people who were blessing him throughout the venue, he felt moved and his eyes turned red. Zhang Peng was stationed at the entrance to collect gifts, and at that moment, a tall foreigner arrived at the hotel. Zhang Peng quickly stopped him and asked questions since they didn't have any foreign friends. The foreigner directly presented a large stack of envelopes filled with money as a wedding gift, stating that someone sent it to congratulate Xu Wei Biao on his marriage before leaving.
Zhang Peng looked at the bundle of money and couldn't help but marvel at the generosity of the gift giver. Lin Zhi Hua had a few drinks at Sun Hai Jie's retirement banquet and arrived at the hotel a bit disoriented. Through the glass door, Zhang Peng saw Lin Zhi Hua and immediately greeted him loudly while running forward. However, he accidentally bumped into the glass door and fell to the ground, holding his head in pain.
Upon seeing Zhang Peng's mishap, Lin Zhi Hua became worried and hurriedly approached to check on him. However, she ended up colliding with the glass door herself and fell to the ground. The two of them faced each other through the glass, unable to contain their laughter. Lin Zhi Hua apologized to Xu Wei Biao and Lin Hong Mei for arriving late. They understood that she was busy with work and didn't blame her. However, Xu Wei Biao had consumed quite a bit of alcohol and somewhat indiscreetly expressed that he wanted Lin Zhi Hua to protect him in the future. Many people at the scene had committed past offenses, and with a sweep of Lin Zhi Hua's gaze, they immediately stood up and left. Lin Zhi Hua happened to notice a thief she had recently dealt with trying to escape, but she was quicker than him and apprehended him, handcuffing him to a table. She whispered to him to finish his meal decently before going back to the station with her.
By this point, Xu Wei Biao was already quite drunk and unexpectedly lifted the tablecloth, tearing off the last shred of his dignity. He also told Lin Zhi Hua not to arrest anyone at his wedding. Lin Zhi Hua thought about how Xu Wei Biao had just entered the police station a few days ago and if it weren't for her intervention, he might still be stuck there. If he ended up back in there again, she wouldn't be able to help him.
Feeling that his face had been tarnished, Xu Wei Biao, despite Zhang Peng's attempts to mediate, couldn't help but harbor some dissatisfaction. Lin Zhi Hua, seeing the situation, also felt uneasy. The image of Zhong Yu Nan's fate kept appearing in her mind, and she didn't want Xu Wei Biao to follow the same path. She had been advising him all along, but it seemed that her advice had backfired.
After the foreigner returned to the hotel, he informed Wang Lei that he had delivered the money and then took out a postcard to write to his wife and children back home. Wang Lei, seeing someone who had a family to rely on, secretly wished Xu Wei Biao, Zhang Peng, and Lin Zhi Hua were in a similar situation. However, he knew that his current identity was that of a deceased person and it was completely inappropriate for him to appear.
Xu Wei Biao and Zhang Peng went together to the cemetery to visit Zhong Yu Nan and Wang Lei. Zhang Peng found it amusing when he saw Xu Wei Biao showing off in front of Wang Lei's grave, boasting about finally winning Lin Hong Mei and no longer having to worry about Wang Lei. Xu Wei Biao, on the other hand, secretly wished that Wang Lei would miraculously come back and give him a good beating.
