Episode 2 recap: Hao Wei Lai was arranged to go abroad.
Anna invited Xia Yuan to have coffee together and subtly encouraged Xia Yuan to take a good vacation, offering to handle her work for her. Anna also mentioned that the rumors circulating in the company about Xia Yuan being jilted were spread by Mr. Tang, but Xia Yuan didn't believe it because Mr. Tang not only consoled her but also granted her leave to calm her down.
Xia Yuan planned to go to Europe and give herself a year to find Song Hang Yu and seek an answer. Anna was delighted by this decision as she had long prepared to replace Xia Yuan. Ye Siqi, who worked at the coffee shop, overheard Anna's description of Europe and became envious. Hao Wei Lai went to the coffee shop to find Ye Siqi and tried to persuade her to forgive Qiao Bin. However, mischievous Ye Siqi secretly added mustard to his coffee. The taste made Hao Wei Lai feel nauseous, but he restrained himself and tried to talk to Ye Siqi. However, Ye Siqi completely ignored him.
Unable to do anything, Hao Wei Lai began loudly complaining about Ye Siqi adding something to his coffee. Xia Yuan, seeing Hao Wei Lai's inappropriate behavior, immediately stepped forward and reminded him to behave appropriately in public. Qiao Bin received Hao Wei Lai's message and knew that the attempt to reconcile had failed that day. After work, he bought a bouquet of roses and went to apologize to Ye Siqi, only to unexpectedly find out that she had already resigned.
Qiao Bin returned home and questioned Ye Siqi for resigning so abruptly. He didn't expect that Ye Siqi had already decided to go to Europe to broaden her horizons, believing that she would come back as a different person. Hao Wei Lai's father forced him to meet Liu Yun once again. If he messed up this time, he wouldn't receive any money. Hao Wei Lai reluctantly went and was surprised to find Liu Yun even more anxious than last time. She directly took out wedding photos and asked Hao Wei Lai to choose. Taking advantage of Liu Yun going to the restroom, Hao Wei Lai sought help from Xia Yuan, hoping she could help him get rid of Liu Yun.
Upon hearing Hao Wei Lai mentioning herself to Liu Yun and portraying herself as a pitiful victim abandoned by Song Hang Yu, Xia Yuan was reminded of the cold treatment she received because of this matter and couldn't help but vent her anger. She saw Hao Wei Lai as a substitute for Song Hang Yu and expressed her grievances.
After witnessing Xia Yuan scolding Hao Wei Lai, Liu Yun concluded that he was a scumbag and angrily left, ending their relationship. When Hao Wei Lai returned home, his father had already prepared dinner. While serving him food, his father reminded him to learn to live on his own. After finishing the meal, his father took out a plane ticket and handed it to Hao Wei Lai, indicating that he should go abroad.
Feeling that his father wanted to drive him away, Hao Wei Lai proposed that if his father gave him 300,000 yuan to pay the employees of his studio, he would agree to leave. His father agreed to the proposal.
Qiao Bin divorced Ye Siqi at her strong insistence. He felt disappointed upon learning that his friend, Hao Wei Lai, was going abroad. That evening, everyone gathered to see Hao Wei Lai off. Pan Ni suddenly came to find Hao Wei Lai and advised him to be more responsible. She mentioned that his father needed him by his side the most. Hao Wei Lai didn't understand the underlying meaning but thought his father was particularly wealthy, so he saw spending money as a way to share his father's burden.
Pan Ni had intended to confront him but ultimately chose not to say anything. Under his father's arrangement, Hao Wei Lai underwent a medical examination and applied for a visa. Coincidentally, Ye Siqi was also there to apply for a visa. He advised Ye Siqi to cherish a good man like Qiao Bin, but Ye Siqi informed him that they were already divorced and asked him not to meddle in her and Qiao Bin's affairs. However, Hao Wei Lai persisted in trying to persuade her.
Xia Yuan happened to arrive and witnessed Hao Wei Lai's lack of respect for women. She immediately performed a shoulder throw on him, leaving him dizzy and becoming the subject of everyone's amusement. Hao Wei Lai's father sighed upon seeing that he still didn't know how to get along with others. When he returned home, he prepared some cash for Hao Wei Lai and gave him a business card, instructing him to contact his friend in Europe, who could directly arrange a job for him.
Hao Wei Lai didn't think it was necessary. However, upon returning to his room and seeing a neatly packed suitcase with various items, he was deeply moved. Nevertheless, it didn't stop him from throwing the business card out of the car window when the plane landed. As soon as Ye Siqi arrived in Europe, she immediately contacted the agent. Soon, she was taken to an underground basement, where she was asked to hand over her passport and phone. The person urged her to sign the contract quickly and work there in the future.
Ye Siqi was unaware and had no idea that the man in front of her was watching her with ill intentions. When Xia Yuan checked into her hotel, she noticed Hao Wei Lai standing behind her. Hao Wei Lai was also startled and quickly declared that he wasn't following Xia Yuan.
Seeing the second female lead is giving me a headache. Getting married and divorced so casually, treating marriage and divorce like child's play? Nowadays, young people are like this. They view marriage as something simple, getting married after a casual relationship, and then divorcing just as easily.
I genuinely look down upon those who marry and divorce so recklessly. Many people would say, "If it's not suitable, why not get a divorce?" Well, why didn't they realize it wasn't suitable before getting married?
It's simply because they lack careful consideration in their conduct and are too driven by emotions. And now, just because her husband lied about not having a house, this woman deep down feels she can't bear it without a house, not because of the deception.
She's just afraid that he'll be rejected by her. He promised not to lie in the future, but she's using it as an excuse to say she dislikes deceitful people, when in reality, deep down, she dislikes him for not having a house.
It's better to divorce. She's not a good woman, and even if they don't divorce now, they will eventually. Seeing this woman gives me a headache.
