Episode 7 recap: Tong Xin arranged a meeting between Xiao Yi Cheng and Lin Xi.
Afterwards, Xiao Yi Cheng sought out Lin Xi again. Lin Xi saw him as soon as she came out of the company. Xiao Yi Cheng then said some meaningless words. Seeing that Lin Xi was about to leave, Xiao Yi Cheng finally thanked her. Xiao Yi Cheng also asked Lin Xi to make a request. Lin Xi noticed some candied haws nearby, and Xiao Yi Cheng understood her thoughts. However, Lin Xi suddenly remembered that Xiao Yi Cheng had a child, so she took the opportunity to leave while Xiao Yi Cheng was buying the candied haws.
After Xiao Yi Cheng returned home with the candied haws, Tong Xin scolded him and criticized him for only giving ten skewers of candied haws after Lin Xi had helped them so much. In fact, Tong Xin could see that Xiao Yi Cheng still had feelings for Lin Xi. Xiao Yi Cheng was being contradictory in his words, thinking that Lin Xi had despised him in the past, and now that he had achieved success, why didn't she come to him.
Tong Xin began to analyze and suddenly saw her son. Perhaps Lin Xi misunderstood that Xiao Yi Cheng was already married and had a child. Tong Xin urged Xiao Yi Cheng to explain to Lin Xi as soon as possible, but Xiao Yi Cheng didn't want to explain too much.
Tong Xin called Lin Xi and expressed gratitude for her help, inviting her to dinner as a token of appreciation. Lin Xi agreed. However, Lin Xi was surprised by the location chosen by Tong Xin, which turned out to be the place where she and Xiao Yi Cheng had once dated.
At that time, Xiao Yi Cheng was in a bad mood due to a failed exam, and Lin Xi was comforting him. Xiao Yi Cheng was worried about whether he would win the competition, but with Lin Xi's encouragement, he actually won first place, which made Xiao Yi Cheng very happy.
When Lin Xi came to her senses, she still entered the restaurant. She saw Tong Xin bringing her son along, which made Lin Xi feel a bit awkward. However, Tong Xin received a phone call saying she had to return to the company to handle something, so she entrusted her son to Lin Xi and Xiao Yi Cheng.
Tong Xin pulled Xiao Yi Cheng aside and said she was creating an opportunity for them to reconcile. Tong Xin hurriedly left because the child needed an adult to accompany him to the competition. So Lin Xi reluctantly agreed. At the venue, other parents mistook Lin Xi as Tong Xin's child's mother. Lin Xi tried to explain, but the situation escalated, and Xiao Yi Cheng didn't say a word.
Xiao Yi Cheng even asked Lin Xi to wear matching parent-child clothes. The competition officially began, and Xiao Yi Cheng had a great time playing with his child. Lin Xi didn't know how to join in. While Xiao Yi Cheng was competing, he accidentally got knocked down by another parent, which made Lin Xi burst into laughter.
When Xiao Yi Cheng wiped himself off, he looked at Lin Xi standing beside him. He deliberately asked Lin Xi to help him wipe his face, which made Lin Xi feel a bit embarrassed. As a result, Lin Xi was mistaken for the child's stepmother, and she wanted to explain, but the other parents didn't give her a chance. They even insisted on adding Lin Xi to the parent group.
Next, the second round of the competition began. Both Lin Xi and Xiao Yi Cheng were determined. However, Lin Xi accidentally sprained her foot, and Xiao Yi Cheng immediately stopped playing the game and carried Lin Xi away. On the way back, Lin Xi apologized because she felt responsible for the child's loss in the competition.
Xiao Yi Cheng used to be someone who was very afraid of dirt, but after these years of ups and downs in the United States, he no longer has that fear of dirt. Lin Xi didn't expect Xiao Yi Cheng to have changed so much. Afterwards, Xiao Yi Cheng asked Lin Xi which version of himself she liked more, the past or the present, but Lin Xi didn't answer.
Just as they arrived at the underground parking lot, Tong Xin called Xiao Yi Cheng to ask if he had told the truth, but Xiao Yi Cheng didn't say anything. Seeing that Lin Xi was about to leave, Xiao Yi Cheng noticed that Lin Xi couldn't drive because of her injured foot, so he decided to take her upstairs. Xiao Yi Cheng carried Lin Xi all the way, and in the elevator, Tong Xin's son, Peter, met a good friend who asked who Xiao Yi Cheng was carrying. Peter said he was a friend of his dad's.
After they entered, Lin Xi saw Tong Xin and quickly explained the situation, and she was even added to the parents' group. Tong Xin pretended to be angry on purpose, hoping that Xiao Yi Cheng would explain things to Lin Xi clearly. Lin Xi was surprised to learn that Xiao Yi Cheng was only Peter's godfather, as she had thought they were a family.
Lin Xi remembered the things Xiao Yi Cheng had done for her in the past, but in the end, she let reason prevail over emotions and said they should talk about work. Lin Xi discovered that Xiao Yi Cheng can cook now, which was something he never did before. It seems that Xiao Yi Cheng has indeed grown a lot in these years.
When Xiao Yi Cheng and Lin Xi first got together, Xiao Yi Cheng couldn't eat spicy food, but he ate extremely spicy food just for Lin Xi, and he drank a lot of water. Xiao Yi Cheng was also planning to confess his feelings to Lin Xi at the restaurant, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he couldn't say them.
It was thanks to Lin Xi's encouragement that Xiao Yi Cheng finally confessed his feelings to her. In fact, Lin Xi had liked Xiao Yi Cheng for a long time, and they officially became a couple in that moment. However, just as Lin Xi was about to say something about being together, Xiao Yi Cheng ran to the restroom because the food was too spicy.
Nowadays, Lin Xi can't eat spicy food anymore, but Xiao Yi Cheng prepared a table full of spicy dishes. Just as they were about to delve into deeper topics, a classmate came to find Xiao Yi Cheng, and Lin Xi had to leave. Xiao Yi Cheng escorted Lin Xi downstairs, and she hurriedly drove away. However, the misunderstandings between them have now been resolved.
Xiao Yi Cheng called Lin Xi, but she didn't answer. He quickly explained to her via text that a classmate had come to find him. Tong Xin looked at Xiao Yi Cheng and could clearly see that he had fallen in love. Xiao Yi Cheng also told Tong Xin that he felt Lin Xi still had feelings for him.
