Episode 13 recap: Hao Wei Lai confesses his feelings while intoxicated.
President Xu took a bite of the Kung Pao Chicken and praised its deliciousness. A Hui couldn't help but remind him that it might be too oily for an elderly person to eat too much. She suggested that Xia Yuan try the dish. Xia Yuan quickly joined Hao Wei Lai in tasting it and they both thought A Hui did a great job.
President Xu was in a very good mood because of eating A Hui's dish and spending time with her. He knew it was all because of Xia Yuan and felt grateful towards her. Upon learning that Xia Yuan was grateful for saving her life, President Xu planned an "Open Day" event and decided to support it wholeheartedly.
That night, Hao Wei Lai lay in bed, regretting his inability to confess his feelings. The next day, he mustered up the courage to buy a bouquet of flowers and went to find Xia Yuan. Unexpectedly, he bumped into A Hui who also had a bouquet of roses. He immediately made up an excuse that the winery was too monotonous and he brought the flowers to add decoration, asking A Hui to put her flowers in another bucket.
Xia Yuan felt extremely awkward and brought up the plan for the Open Day. Hao Wei Lai immediately claimed that it was his and Xia Yuan's idea together. A Hui didn't back down either and stated that Xia Yuan had done what he had always wanted to do, suggesting that they were on the same wavelength. Both of them wanted to discuss it with Xia Yuan, which made Xia Yuan feel overwhelmed. In a rush, Xia Yuan divided the tasks into three parts for each person to take responsibility, temporarily separating the confrontational A Hui and Hao Wei Lai.
Ye Si Qi cleaned the villa, but Wei Xue Song didn't like things being messy and quickly arranged the books and tissues in a straight line, telling Ye Si Qi to remember to do the same in the future. This made Ye Si Qi think that Wei Xue Song had OCD and muttered to herself.
Wei Xue Song took Ye Si Qi to a formal dress shop and picked out a dress for her to accompany him to the evening banquet. When Wei Xue Song saw Ye Si Qi wearing the dress, he couldn't help but show an amazed expression. They arrived at the venue together, and Ye Si Qi, who seemed inexperienced, looked at all the delicious food and drew the disdain of Wei Xue Song's ex-girlfriend. She deliberately mocked Wei Xue Song's deteriorating taste.
Ye Si Qi guessed the woman's identity from her words and immediately pretended to be affectionate, clinging to Wei Xue Song's arm, mocking the woman for having wrinkles due to her age. The woman was almost exposed by Ye Si Qi's actions and invited Wei Xue Song to see her art exhibition, but Ye Si Qi pushed her aside. In the end, Wei Xue Song refused the woman's invitation, making her very angry.
Ye Si Qi believed that she had performed exceptionally well tonight and boasted to Wei Xue Song. Wei Xue Song smiled and acknowledged Ye Si Qi's work. Xia Yuan specially prepared a meal for Hao Wei Lai and A Hui. The two of them sat at the dining table, eating and provoking each other with hidden meanings in their conversation. Hao Wei Lai deliberately brought up their life together in the orchard with Xia Yuan, while A Hui deliberately mentioned the protective amulet Xia Yuan gave him. They then engaged in a drinking contest. Xia Yuan felt overwhelmed by the situation and quickly excused himself, claiming that President Xu was looking for him. Hao Wei Lai and A Hui continued drinking and when they were almost drunk, their hostility towards each other disappeared and they went to find more alcohol together.
After getting drunk, A Hui lost his usual coldness and started calling President Xu "dad." This made President Xu very pleased, and he helped A Hui back to his room. As he looked at A Hui's appearance, he couldn't help but shed tears. They had been distant for many years, but now they could finally ease their relationship. Thinking about this, President Xu's emotions became even more unsettled.
Hao Wei Lai drank too much and collapsed on the floor as soon as he entered the room. Xia Yuan hurriedly helped him up, but Hao Wei Lai mistook her for Qiao Bin and confessed his feelings for Xia Yuan, even asking her to undress him.
Xia Yuan refused, but Hao Wei Lai, still mistaking her for Qiao Bin, believed that brothers should help each other and didn't understand why she refused. He held onto Xia Yuan and wouldn't let her go. Xia Yuan reluctantly agreed to help, but to her surprise, Hao Wei Lai suddenly recognized her and asked why she was undressing him. This made Xia Yuan extremely embarrassed.
Early the next morning, A Hui woke up and realized that he had spent the night at home. He felt a strange feeling towards the house and, seeing the milk on the bedside table, assumed it was prepared by Xia Yuan. He felt joyful in his heart. Hao Wei Lai and A Hui both entered the dining room at the same time. When A Hui didn't want to have breakfast together, Hao Wei Lai insisted that he sit down without any objections, and Xia Yuan chimed in as well. A Hui went along and started eating. He noticed that Hao Wei Lai kept picking up food for Xia Yuan, and Xia Yuan didn't refuse. A Hui understood that he had no chance to pursue Xia Yuan.
President Xu noticed A Hui's disappointment and gave him the egg from his own bowl, knowing that it was A Hui's favorite. The wine tasting event planned by Xia Yuan, Hao Wei Lai, and A Hui had come to an end. Hao Wei Lai and Xia Yuan went out to distribute flyers to attract potential customers, but it seemed that nobody was interested.
