Episode 23 recap: Meng Ming Wei was deceived, while Meng Wan Qing cleverly rescued someone.
Meng Wan Qing took care of Qiao Hai Yun on behalf of Meng Ming Wei. She specially bought some cherries and planned to bring some to Meng Ming Wei, but to her surprise, there was no one at Meng Ming Wei's home.Meng Wan Qing knocked on the door, but no one answered. She also tried calling but no one picked up, which made her worried about Meng Ming Wei. Meng Yi An was on a business trip and received a call from Qiu Qiu at the hotel, assuring him of their safety. This made Qiu Xia a bit jealous, fearing that Meng Yi An and Song Jun Fan were staying in the same room. She asked about it and was relieved to know that Meng Yi An was staying with other girls, which made her inexplicably happy.
During a meeting, Meng Yi An noticed that Meng Wan Qing had sent many messages and decided to call her back. Meng Wan Qing told him about Meng Ming Wei's situation and discussed whether something had really happened to Meng Ming Wei.
Meng Yi An asked Meng Wan Qing to go upstairs again or visit the familiar neighbor in the community mentioned by Meng Ming Wei to check. Finally, Meng Wan Qing made another trip to Meng Ming Wei's home. When she knocked on the door again, a drunk Li Cheng Zhi answered, but he didn't care about Meng Ming Wei's situation.
Seeing that Li Cheng Zhi didn't care at all, Meng Wan Qing asked him to check if anything was missing from the house. Upon hearing Meng Wan Qing's words, Li Cheng Zhi immediately went to look for his salary card and discovered that Meng Ming Wei had taken it.
Meng Wan Qing confirmed that something had indeed happened to Meng Ming Wei and called Li Yi Jin to search for him together. Li Yi Jin, in order to meet Feng Yan Yan, prepared a trial performance because the story of this play was very similar to their own story.
After the play, Feng Yan Yan and Li Yi Jin reminisced about their school days. Feng Yan Yan used to have difficulty speaking and was ridiculed by classmates, but Li Yi Jin protected her and became her good friend. When Meng Ming Wei found out that Li Yi Jin had made friends like Feng Yan Yan, he forcibly separated them. Feng Yan Yan lost her only friend and transferred schools, losing contact with Li Yi Jin.
After the play, Feng Yan Yan finally admitted her true identity to Li Yi Jin and expressed that she had let go of the past and was willing to accept Li Yi Jin and start anew. Li Yi Jin went to the train station, intending to buy a ticket for the fastest high-speed train back home, but she found out that the earliest one was the next morning, so she had to wait at the train station.
Afraid of not being able to find Meng Ming Wei, Li Yi Jin anxiously sought help from Zhou Dao, who immediately went to find her upon hearing that she needed assistance.
Meng Wan Qing searched everywhere for Meng Ming Wei late at night but couldn't find any news. Meanwhile, Xiao Gao took Meng Ming Wei to attend a lecture. When Xiao Gao learned that Meng Ming Wei didn't have any money, he encouraged Meng Ming Wei to ask his family for some.
Meng Ming Wei couldn't ask Li Cheng Zhi or Li Yi Jin for money, so he had to call Meng Wan Qing. Upon hearing the situation, Meng Wan Qing quickly realized that Xiao Gao had deceived Meng Ming Wei. She pretended to be interested in Xiao Gao's investment scheme to trick him into revealing the location.
Thinking that Meng Wan Qing genuinely believed in her scam and would bring more money to invest, Xiao Gao disclosed the address to Meng Wan Qing. After learning the situation, Meng Wan Qing tried to contact Tao Da Lei, but couldn't reach him because he was happily dancing with others.
Unable to reach Tao Da Lei, Meng Wan Qing called Zheng Bin. As soon as Zheng Bin heard that Meng Wan Qing needed help, he didn't even have time to change his shoes and rushed out to assist her.
With Zheng Bin's help, Meng Wan Qing went to Xiao Gao's location with the police and captured all the people involved in deceiving Meng Ming Wei, successfully rescuing him. While Meng Ming Wei was giving a statement, Meng Wan Qing noticed Zheng Bin's shoes and was deeply moved. However, she couldn't make any promises to Zheng Bin and could only keep his kindness in her heart.
Qiao Hai Yun found out about Meng Ming Wei's situation and scolded him before allowing Meng Wan Qing to take him back. Meng Wan Qing brought Meng Ming Wei home and instructed Li Cheng Zhi not to interrogate Meng Ming Wei about being deceived. Li Cheng Zhi immediately snatched Meng Ming Wei's card back.
Li Cheng Zhi showed no concern for Meng Ming Wei and blamed him for being foolish. He refused to provide any explanation regarding the money in the salary card. Li Cheng Zhi expressed that he had given too much to this family and Meng Ming Wei had failed to educate Li Yi Jin properly. He scolded Meng Ming Wei harshly.
After the incident had settled down, Li Yi Jin called Meng Ming Wei to express her concern. However, Meng Ming Wei was still angry at her and stated that he would rather be deceived than accept her care. Knowing that Meng Ming Wei was upset, Li Yi Jin called Li Cheng Zhi, hoping he would show some concern for Meng Ming Wei. However, Li Cheng Zhi's attitude only further hurt her.
While Li Yi Jin was feeling sad, Zhou Dao brought pumpkin porridge to her, which deeply touched her. As a result, she invited Zhou Dao into her house.
