Episode 33 recap: Cheng Yao transferred to another law firm.
During a dinner with Wu Jun and Cheng Yao, they were surprised when three of Wu Jun's ex-girlfriends showed up and started insulting him, calling him a scumbag. Wu Jun quickly explained the situation to Cheng Xi afterward. Cheng Xi couldn't help but feel that this was not a coincidence. Perhaps it was because Qian Heng had been trying to contact Wu Jun, but Wu Jun was afraid of being confronted by Qian Heng, so he ignored his calls. Qian Heng resorted to this plan as a result.
Wu Jun called Liang Yi Ran into his office and realized that the teacher she was familiar with, "Waiting for You," liked her a lot. However, he didn't expect that Liang Yi Ran had forgotten her original intentions. Wu Jun stated that he would minimize the losses. Liang Yi Ran was surprised that they would let her go. In fact, Wu Jun, you don't know if your approach is right or wrong, but Cheng Xi thinks it's a good way to handle the situation. Wu Jun can do what Qian Heng cannot.
Wu Jun has many advantages that Qian Heng doesn't have. Although Qian Heng is very competent in handling cases, he still relies on Wu Jun when it comes to interpersonal relationships. Liang Yi Ran asked Cheng Yao to meet up. Liang Yi Ran's reputation has suffered because of this incident, and she plans to study abroad for a while. Cheng Yao mentioned that ever since Liang Yi Ran joined the company, she felt the hostility from her, but she always regarded her as a motivating target.
Liang Yi Ran also noticed Cheng Yao's optimism, something she had never possessed before. Before Cheng Yao left, Liang Yi Ran apologized. When Cheng Yao was buying groceries and going home, she suddenly heard Qian Heng shouting. She hurried to the rooftop, only to find that Qian Heng had made a sign apologizing, hoping that Cheng Yao wouldn't be angry and would return to the law firm.
Qian Heng also learned that Cheng Yao wanted to join Li Cheng Xuan's law firm, and he naturally opposed it. However, Cheng Yao said she just wanted to go out and explore. Cheng Yao comforted Qian Heng, and in the end, he reluctantly agreed.
Qian Heng accompanied Cheng Yao on her first day at work, but he felt very down when they returned to the office. His subordinates could tell that he was in a bad mood, so they decided not to provoke him today. After Cheng Yao started working, her colleagues invited her to have dinner together to welcome her. However, at that moment, Qian Heng suddenly appeared. Cheng Yao didn't disclose their romantic relationship to her colleagues.
Qian Heng sarcastically mocked Li Cheng Xuan and even tried to snatch Cheng Yao back in front of him. Then, at that moment, Qian Heng openly declared that Cheng Yao was his girlfriend. Qian Heng felt jealous when he saw Li Cheng Xuan giving Cheng Yao flowers, even if they were just baby's breath.
Cheng Yao comforted Qian Heng, telling him not to overthink things. They both work in the same building, and Cheng Yao mentioned that they have meals together every day. However, since their colleagues found out about their relationship, they started treating Cheng Yao differently. Cheng Yao asked them not to treat her differently and emphasized that she was just like everyone else.
Li Cheng Xuan also approached Cheng Yao and told her that his decision to change jobs was partly influenced by Qian Heng. When Li Cheng Xuan was about to become a partner, he took on three cases, but unexpectedly, he lost all three due to what he believed was Qian Heng's curse. That's why he left, hoping that leaving Qian Heng would bring him better luck. However, he didn't anticipate becoming colleagues with Qian Heng's girlfriend.
Whenever Qian Heng sees Cheng Yao with her senior Gu Bei Qing, he gets jealous, and his subordinates bear the brunt of it. Fortunately, Cheng Yao quickly sends messages to Qian Heng to calm his emotions, and as a result, his subordinates are spared. During this time, Cheng Yao and Gu Bei Qing work together very well, and their cases go smoothly.
Guo Ying overheard that their company would be having a meal downstairs, so Qian Heng took me, Yu Fei, and Bao Rui to eavesdrop. We learned that Cheng Yao and Gu Bei Qing would be shooting a magazine cover next week, which made Qian Heng even more upset. Thankfully, Cheng Yao declined the offer, and their colleagues mentioned that Cheng Yao should avoid such situations in the future to prevent misunderstandings.
When Qian Heng's mother found out that Cheng Yao had changed jobs, she expressed interest in buying their law firm. Cheng Yao overheard this conversation in the office and quickly pulled Qian Heng's mother away. Qian Heng's mother even made nourishing soup for Cheng Yao, but she became saddened upon learning that Cheng Yao had no intentions of getting married. When she returned home, she asked Qian Heng about it, and he said that Cheng Yao's thoughts align with his own.
In the following period, Qian Heng and Cheng Yao didn't interfere with each other's work, but their personal life remained sweet. Cheng Yao quickly became an outstanding employee in the company, and Qian Heng's law firm thrived. On their anniversary, Cheng Yao mentioned that she aspires to become a partner in the future, but she advised Qian Heng not to overwork himself.
Cheng Yao still wants to prove herself and doesn't want to become Mrs. Qian. She simply wants to be her own person.
