Episode 16 recap: One thousand reasons to be sad.
She Zhenzhen saw the motorcycle and her eyes lit up with excitement. She couldn't help but approach and take a closer look. Ah Qiang looked at She Zhenzhen in front of him, curious about why a girl would be so fond of motorcycles. They introduced themselves to each other and had a delightful conversation. On the side, Chen Ting and Lin Hao became increasingly uncomfortable as they watched. They were supposed to set up a blind date, but they didn't expect the two of them to hit it off so well at their first meeting. This really troubled the two of them.
She Zhenzhen and Ah Qiang got along well. Both of them disliked arranged blind dates and had agreed to go along with this one, which put Chen Ting and Lin Hao at ease. However, their good friend Tai Di was different. She couldn't see through their true feelings and kept trying to match Ah Qiang and She Zhenzhen together, which made the two of them very anxious.
Even though Chen Ting heard directly from Zhenzhen that they didn't have feelings for each other, he still couldn't let go. He was afraid that if he didn't stay by She Zhenzhen's side, someone else would snatch her away in the next second. Unexpectedly, he encountered Lin Hao, who had the same mindset. The two of them were really contradictory, saying things they didn't even believe themselves. Ah Qiang was the same. He said he didn't like blind dates, but he also didn't want to give up on She Zhenzhen. In order to deliberately see her, he specially went to their shop to have his motorcycle serviced, even though it had just been serviced. He wanted to find an excuse to meet her. Coincidentally, this scene was witnessed by Chen Ting and Lin Hao, and they instantly became a little anxious.
They were very aware of Ah Qiang's character. Since he didn't take this blind date seriously, why was he clinging to She Zhenzhen? After a few provocations, Ah Qiang tactfully left. Time passed so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them were about to go on their blind date. In order to ruin their blind date, Chen Ting and Lin Hao, citing the need to boost their performance, deliberately called She Zhenzhen back to the shop to do her hair, with Chen Ting playing along on the side.
Only Tai Di was unaware of the inside story. She even brought her mother's cosmetics specifically to do makeup for She Zhenzhen's date. Little did she expect to be spoiled by Chen Ting and Lin Hao. Lin Hao's hairstyling amazed everyone, while Chen Ting's makeup made everyone ugly and almost cried. Only She Zhenzhen still thought it looked good. It wasn't really an important matter, just going through the motions.
Ah Qiang looked at She Zhenzhen in front of him and sensed that something was different about her. She Zhenzhen absentmindedly drank her beverage. Ah Qiang was about to suggest taking She Zhenzhen out for dinner when Lin Hao suddenly appeared with flowers in his hands. She Zhenzhen was dumbfounded at the sight of the flowers, and before she could react, another person came from the right side—Chen Ting, also holding flowers. The two of them staged an affectionate scene right in front of She Zhenzhen, leaving Ah Qiang bewildered.
The group of them argued back and forth, each trying to outdo the other, all with the purpose of sabotaging the blind date and making it a failure. Their actions directly angered She Zhenzhen, and Lin Hao and Chen Ting also realized that they had gone too far. They worried that they had truly upset She Zhenzhen. Just as they were speaking, they heard She Zhenzhen's voice. Fortunately, she wasn't angry, or else things would have turned out worse. She was actually happy because the blind date didn't succeed.
As She Zhenzhen approached her house, she overheard her parents' conversation. It turned out that the reason the blind date didn't succeed was that her father found the dowry offered by the other party too small and rejected it. She Zhenzhen couldn't hold back her inner grievances anymore and desperately pleaded with her mother not to let her get married. What she wanted was freedom, not a motorcycle. Her mother seemed to not fully understand.
When Chen Ting returned home, he had a strange feeling. He hadn't seen his father much recently, which made him curious.
