Episode 29 recap: Qian Heng and Cheng Yao unexpectedly met each other's parents.
Since everyone found out that Cheng Yao and Qian Heng were dating, people became very nosy and wanted to inquire about their love story. Bao Rui started gossiping, but just then Qian Heng arrived, and Bao Rui quickly shut up.Qian Heng told Cheng Yao that his father asked him to come home in the evening because something important came up, so he couldn't accompany her for the time being. Bao Rui was also the last one to know about Tan Ying and Yu Fei dating right under his nose. In fact, Qian Heng had noticed it a long time ago but didn't reveal it. Only Bao Rui was the last to know, making him the biggest and brightest third wheel.
While Cheng Yao was at work, she suddenly received a call from her father, who asked her to come home for dinner and mentioned his eccentric desk mate. Today their goal was to compete with the next generation and see who was stronger. Her father also asked her to dress in the most expensive clothes. Cheng Yao agreed at the time.
Cheng Yao went to the hotel and unexpectedly met Qian Heng there. What's even more coincidental is that their fathers were in the same private room. It turned out that their fathers were classmates. Qian Heng and Cheng Yao entered together. Initially, Cheng Yao had lied and said that Qian Heng was a freeloader. This caused an argument between their fathers. Qian Heng quickly pulled them apart and said that he was Cheng Yao's superior, and they both worked at the same company. He also revealed that they were now in a romantic relationship, hoping that both sets of parents could accept their relationship.
Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, Qian Heng's mother, Deng, who also noticed that Cheng Yao was wearing the bracelet she had given her, accepted Cheng Yao as her daughter-in-law. Cheng Yao's mother didn't want to be outdone, so she gave Qian Heng a bracelet as a gift. In fact, both mothers wanted to ease the tension through this gesture.
Although both fathers approved of the other's child, they still wanted to determine who pursued whom first. Qian Heng's mother took the initiative to talk about the wedding plans for the two. Qian Heng and Cheng Yao were happy that their parents had officially met.
Qian Heng didn't want Cheng Yao to continue witnessing the potential conflicts between their parents, so he took her to a record store. This place was his secret hideaway, and it was the first time the owner saw Qian Heng bringing a girl. It must have meant that she was someone special.
It turned out that Qian Heng used to come here to listen to music when he couldn't sleep. That's why he had a good relationship with the store owner. They chose a record together and started listening to the music, hoping that this beautiful moment could stay with them forever.
Wu Jun called Qian Heng again to boast about meeting Cheng Xi's parents. He complained on the surface but was actually very happy. Qian Heng, on the other hand, asked Wu Jun to come and meet with him. Wu Jun originally wanted to brag about his own relationship and upcoming marriage, but he was surprised to learn that Qian Heng was already with Cheng Yao.
After returning home, Wu Jun complained to Cheng Xi. Cheng Xi revealed that Qian Heng had already met her parents a long time ago. Wu Jun was surprised by the deep connection between the two. While Cheng Yao was at work, she ran into Lawyer Liang. At first, she didn't recognize who the person was, so she left when she saw the person not getting on the elevator.
Soon, the company prepared for a meeting. Cheng Yao was telling her colleagues about encountering a powerful female lawyer earlier that day. Just then, Qian Heng entered with Lawyer Liang Yi Ran and introduced her to everyone. Liang Yi Ran had already done her homework on her first day and even knew the names of every subordinate. Everyone had a good impression of her. They all gathered around Liang Yi Ran, and Qian Heng noticed Cheng Yao joining them, which made him feel uneasy.
Liang Yi Ran also brought gifts for Qian Heng's parents, but Qian Heng declined them. After all, he was in a relationship now and didn't want to get too close to other women. Liang Yi Ran reminisced about how she instantly fell for Qian Heng when they first met and how she had finally caught up with him.
Bao Rui invited everyone to dinner, but shortly after they started eating, Qian Heng showed up again. The others quickly left upon seeing their boss, and Qian Heng wanted to stay by Cheng Yao's side. Upon learning that Qian Heng hadn't eaten, Cheng Yao went back to cook porridge for him.
Qian Heng even apologized to Cheng Yao. He thought she might be upset after seeing him with other women in a magazine, but Cheng Yao wasn't that petty.
