Episode 11 recap: Meng Wan Qing confessed the truth about the separation to Tao Shu Na.
Li Yi Jin held her phone and showed Meng Ming Wei the people who added her on WeChat, none of whom seemed reliable. Regardless of whether the other party was reliable or not, Meng Ming Wei just wanted Li Yi Jin to get married soon, so she directly pressured Li Yi Jin to add her on WeChat.
Li Yi Jin refused to add her on WeChat because she didn't feel happy being with someone she didn't get along with, and she believed it was better to enjoy herself by tidying up those bottles alone. Meng Ming Wei was very angry and felt that Li Yi Jin treated the bottles better than her, so she wanted to throw Li Yi Jin's bottles into the trash can.
Li Yi Jin and Meng Ming Wei fought over the bottles, but accidentally broke one, which completely angered Li Yi Jin. Li Yi Jin blamed Meng Ming Wei, saying that she always took away everything she liked, even her hobby of collecting bottles.
Meng Ming Wei was angry at Li Yi Jin's words and had a quarrel with her. She threatened to go back home and not serve Li Yi Jin in Shanghai anymore. Li Yi Jin didn't want to deal with Meng Ming Wei's anger, and no matter what Meng Ming Wei did, she remained silent. Meng Ming Wei could only pretend she really wanted to leave and immediately buy a ticket back home.
When Meng Ming Wei saw that Li Yi Jin didn't try to stop her, she didn't know how to back down. Just then, Tao Shu Na returned, giving her a chance to stay out of anger. Tao Da Lei came back home late by himself, but Meng Wan Qing wasn't at home, and he couldn't reach her on the phone. He could only contact Tao Shu Na to apologize for what he said when he was drunk.
In the middle of the night, Meng Yi An discovered that Qiu Qiu had a fever, so she immediately took Qiu Qiu to the hospital. The doctor advised Qiu Qiu to stay in the hospital for observation, so Meng Yi An had to stay there and inform Qiu Xia the next day. When Qiu Xia learned that Qiu Qiu had a fever, she hurried to the hospital to see her. Only then did Meng Yi An explain that it was because Qiu Qiu got tired yesterday that she fell ill.
Upon hearing that Meng Yi An took Qiu Qiu to work, Qiu Xia angrily criticized Meng Yi An. Meng Yi An knew she hadn't taken good care of Qiu Qiu and didn't try to defend herself, leaving Qiu Xia with nothing to say. Qiu Xia went to see Qiu Qiu, who told her about the incident of taking pictures yesterday. Qiu Xia then refrained from blaming Meng Yi An.
Meng Yi An apologized to Qiu Qiu for her illness and her strictness, while Qiu Qiu acted coquettishly toward Meng Yi An, trying to negotiate whether she could skip finishing her meals or packing her own school bag, but Meng Yi An refused all of her requests.
Qiu Xia wanted to stay with Qiu Qiu instead of Meng Yi An, but Meng Yi An insisted on staying herself and asked Qiu Xia to go home and help pack some of Qiu Qiu's clothes. Xiao Yao wanted to show her concern for Qiu Qiu and was eager to go in and see her, but Meng Yi An used the excuse that Qiu Qiu had just fallen asleep to reject Xiao Yao's request.
On the way back, Xiao Yao once again expressed her desire to take care of Qiu Qiu on behalf of Qiu Xia, but she was again rejected by Qiu Xia.
Qiu Xia arrived at Meng Yi An's house and entered Qiu Qiu's room, where she witnessed Qiu Qiu's disciplined lifestyle and dedicated studying. This greatly impressed Qiu Xia, and just then, Meng Yi An called her.
Qiu Xia apologized to Meng Yi An for her previous accusations that she was unfit to be a mother and acknowledged that she hadn't been handling things well either. Meng Yi An accepted Qiu Xia's apology and admitted that Qiu Xia was right. Their relationship eased a bit.
Tao Shu Na took a taxi home, but unexpectedly encountered a staged accident on the way. Unable to resist her sense of justice, she ended up getting into a fight with the scammer and was subsequently taken to the police station. Meng Wan Qing received a call from the police station while she was working overtime at the company, so she hurriedly went to the station to pick Tao Shu Na up. Zheng Bin even accompanied Meng Wan Qing to the police station.
Fortunately, Tao Shu Na was unharmed, and Meng Wan Qing drove her home. However, when they got out of the car and were retrieving something from the trunk, they accidentally bumped their heads, and Tao Da Lei happened to witness the incident. Thinking that Zheng Bin was trying to seduce his wife, Tao Da Lei angrily confronted and physically attacked Zheng Bin, but in the process, he accidentally injured his own back.
Back at home, Tao Da Lei argued with Meng Wan Qing and demanded that she take care of him. Meng Wan Qing, on the other hand, blamed Tao Da Lei for not answering Tao Shu Na's calls when she needed him. The argument escalated between them.
After Tao Shu Na returned home, she noticed that Meng Wan Qing's belongings were in her room, so she immediately questioned her parents about whether they were living separately. Tao Da Lei lied, claiming that his snoring bothered Meng Wan Qing, so she moved to Tao Shu Na's room to sleep. However, Meng Wan Qing couldn't continue hiding the truth and confessed that their marriage was falling apart.
Tao Shu Na was shocked because she had always believed that her parents were still deeply in love. She didn't realize that they had been living separately since her high school entrance exam year, so she hid away and cried in sadness. Tao Shu Na thought about how Meng Wan Qing had always trusted her and considered her the best friend, and now she couldn't accept the fact that such a thing had been kept from her.
Li Yi Jin didn't want to stay at home with Meng Ming Wei, so during the holiday, she went to work at the company. Coincidentally, she ran into Liao Zhe as she was leaving the building. Liao Zhe offered to drive Li Yi Jin to the company, but she refused. Instead, Liao Zhe went to the theater entrance and waited for Li Yi Jin to finish work.
While Li Yi Jin was working at the company, Cui Bao Hui suddenly appeared and made inappropriate advances towards her. Angry, Li Yi Jin kicked Cui Bao Hui out. Li Yi Jin then got into Liao Zhe's car and left. Meanwhile, Meng Ming Wei called Li Yi Jin during this time to deliver soup, but Li Yi Jin became infuriated by Meng Ming Wei's scolding and hung up the phone.
Knowing that Li Yi Jin had been wronged, Liao Zhe took her to a boxing gym to let her release her emotions. Initially, Li Yi Jin didn't want to fight, but Liao Zhe kicked her a couple of times, encouraging her to fight back. Overwhelmed by suppressed frustrations from her past, Li Yi Jin finally let go and vented all her grievances.
