Episode 24 recap: Cheng Yao and Qian Heng publicly display affection for each other in the company.
They only went home together in the evening. Although nothing special happened on their first date, they were happy just being together. When they arrived at Cheng Yao's apartment building, Cheng Yao didn't go upstairs. Qian Heng gave up his music and held Cheng Yao's hand, making Cheng Yao feel a bit embarrassed.
After the music stopped, Cheng Yao was about to leave. Qian Heng initially wanted to come up with an excuse to go upstairs, but Cheng Yao was worried that he might have some inappropriate intentions, so she quickly declined. After Qian Heng went home, he used work as an excuse to chat with Cheng Yao, which made Cheng Yao quite happy.
Cheng Xi also noticed that something was off with her sister today. Even from their messages, she could tell they were very affectionate. Cheng Xi asked Cheng Yao about it and was delighted to learn that she was in a relationship with Qian Heng. Despite having made the wrong choice in the past herself, she still hoped that Cheng Yao would find happiness.
Yesterday, Qian Heng accidentally caught his hand in the door while getting off, and although it didn't hurt much at the time, he ended up going to the hospital for bandaging. When Cheng Yao returned home and learned about Qian Heng's injury and his difficulty moving around, she allowed him to stay overnight so she could take care of him. Qian Heng's plan was thus accomplished.
With his injured right hand, Qian Heng could only rely on Cheng Yao to feed him, and he quite enjoyed it. While Cheng Yao was doing the dishes, Qian Heng deliberately mentioned that he wanted to take a shower but couldn't because of his injured hand. He originally intended to ask Cheng Yao for help, but she immediately handed him a disposable glove. Qian Heng then tried another approach and pretended to ask Cheng Yao to help undress him, but Cheng Yao saw through his intentions and exposed him. The next morning, Cheng Yao even helped Qian Heng tie his tie, although she had no idea how to do it, so Qian Heng ended up teaching her step by step.
To avoid arousing suspicions among their colleagues, the two deliberately went to work separately. During lunchtime, Guo Ying brought takeout, and when Qian Heng saw Cheng Yao eating with everyone else, he intentionally approached. Bao Rui casually invited him to join them, and Qian Heng readily accepted without hesitation.
No one expected Qian Heng's transformation to be so drastic, and Cheng Yao couldn't help but laugh. When they returned home, Qian Heng noticed that Cheng Yao liked eating grilled durian, so he prepared a lot of it at home. Although he didn't enjoy the taste himself, he was willing to give it a try for Cheng Yao's sake.
When Cheng Yao was shopping at the mall, she specially bought a tie for Qian Heng, which made him very happy. Qian Heng also secretly bought a book on love strategies, intending to use it to navigate his relationship with Cheng Yao, and he even changed the book cover packaging to avoid being noticed by Cheng Yao.
Wu Jun, out of concern for Cheng Xi, decided to wait for her outside the courtroom even if she testified. Cheng Xi felt quite happy about it. While they were in the grocery store picking up items, Qian Heng and Cheng Yao planned to have a moment of intimacy, but their colleagues entered the store, so Qian Heng quickly hid.
Qian Heng overheard the jokes and teasing from their colleagues about him, but he didn't pay much attention to it. Wu Jun sent Qian Heng a message to boast about how his relationship with Cheng Xi had progressed further. In frustration, Qian Heng even wanted to set a photo of Cheng Yao and himself as his screensaver, but Cheng Yao stopped him.
Cheng Yao wanted to handle a case independently, so Qian Heng entrusted his own case to her. He assured her that she could handle it with confidence and promised to provide her with some financial support as her boyfriend, which made Cheng Yao quite happy. Qian Heng personally accompanied Cheng Yao to deal with the case and kept reminding her along the way. Cheng Yao teased Qian Heng for being so naggy, but deep down, she was happy about it.
Cheng Yao also met her client, Ms. Lin. This time, Cheng Yao chose to provide legal assistance to help Ms. Lin fight for her rights. However, unexpectedly, Ms. Lin revealed that the child's father was not her ex-husband.
