Episode 24 recap: Ye Yi Fan set a trap for Song Xiao during the "Hongmen Banquet."
After returning home, He Jia Ru and Ye Yi Fan immediately got busy cooking. This time, they wanted to personally cook and entertain Song Xiao, which proved to be quite challenging for them. After finishing her meal, He Jia Ru went to find Tian Tian. Tian Tian expressed her disappointment as her hope of finding a rich woman had been shattered. He Jia Ru also shared with Tian Tian the news about Ye Yi Fan trying to woo Song Xiao, a wealthy benefactor. Tian Tian couldn't help but shake her head in disbelief.
In order to welcome Song Xiao, Ye Yi Fan temporarily moved their belongings to Chen Li's house. Chen Li happened to see the items Feng Dan had left at the doorstep and asked him to hold onto them temporarily. He Jia Ru didn't want to invite guests, but Ye Yi Fan insisted on helping. He Jia Ru didn't know how to explain the situation to Ye Yi Fan.
Tian Tian went to the Great Wall to paint with her art teacher. The teacher even painted a portrait of Tian Tian, and she made dessert for him. As a foreigner, he found it very authentic and even thought Tian Tian could open a store. This time, everyone put in a lot of effort to welcome Song Xiao. Ye Yi Fan practiced cooking skills diligently every day, and everyone was prepared for this investment.
At first, Jiang Xiao Shan only displayed a photo of He Jia Ru alone at home. However, He Jia Ru felt it was inappropriate and changed it to a family photo of the three of them. When He Jia Ru went to get the cake, she felt a bit unhappy. She complained that Jiang Xiao Shan was promoting herself, and if Ye Yi Fan found out, it would surely lead to trouble.
Tian Tian had been comforting He Jia Ru, who left after taking the cake. However, she unexpectedly ran into Song Xiao downstairs. Chen Li, when he had free time, would chat with his wife and daughter through the camera and talk about taking care of the cat.
Chen Li was about to go to Ye Yi Fan's house for dinner, but to his surprise, there were police officers standing at the door. They took Chen Li away, stating that they needed his assistance with an investigation. Ye Yi Fan's father and He Jia Ru's mother were playing with their two children in the park, while Jiang Xiao Shan purposely created opportunities for Song Xiao and He Jia Ru to be together.
The group of people drank quite a bit of alcohol. In the end, He Jia Ru got drunk, and Ye Yi Fan and Jiang Xiao Shan intentionally revealed the current financial difficulties of their project to Song Xiao. Song Xiao readily invited He Jia Ru to his company. Ye Yi Fan and Jiang Xiao Shan continued to help He Jia Ru seize the opportunity, harmonizing their efforts, waiting for Song Xiao to offer investment assistance.
Suddenly, He Jia Ru woke up and declared that today was their "Hongmen Banquet." He openly told Song Xiao the truth, explicitly expressing their intention to seek investment. Sensing trouble, Ye Yi Fan quickly took He Jia Ru to another room. In his panic, He Jia Ru accidentally spilled red wine on Song Xiao. Jiang Xiao Shan promptly helped clean up the mess. As Song Xiao looked up, he saw a photo of He Jia Ru from their university days, triggering a rush of memories. After hastily packing his belongings, Song Xiao left. Ye Yi Fan felt that the situation had definitely gone awry, and she had failed to secure the investment for her wife.
