Episode 18 recap: Yu Peng Yue wants to pursue Wang Ruo Yu.

Yu Peng Yue came to find Wang Ruo Yu and asked if Wang Ruo Yu had time in the evening. Wang Ruo Yu asked what the matter was, and if it was nothing important, they should go out and not disturb their work. Yu Peng Yue expressed that they wanted to pursue Wang Ruo Yu, and Wang Ruo Yu said they would give them a chance to change themselves.

Wang Ruo Yu stated that it didn't mean they would immediately forgive Yu Peng Yue. The words spoken by Yu Peng Yue were very impolite, which made Li Teng Fei unhappy as well. Li Teng Fei brought a resignation letter and surprised Yu Peng Yue, who thought it was just a small disagreement, and didn't understand why it had come to the point of resignation.

Li Teng Fei stated that they had never had a position in this company, while Yu Peng Yue believed they had not done anything wrong to Li Teng Fei. Li Teng Fei mentioned their stock options, and Yu Peng Yue said they would replace them with common shares.

Li Teng Fei mentioned that they wanted to give 5% to Xu Zi Shan, who had made significant contributions to the company but had not received appropriate rewards. The other 5% would go to someone else. Yu Peng Yue asked if there was anything else the company could do for Li Teng Fei, and Li Teng Fei said there was nothing more.

Wang Ruo Yu came to see Li Teng Fei off and expressed surprise at how many things had happened recently. Li Teng Fei also said they didn't expect to leave so soon. They mentioned having many Rubik's Cubes in their office and hoped Wang Ruo Yu could help tidy them up.

Wang Ruo Yu agreed, but as soon as they arrived in the office, someone approached and said there was something that needed Wang Ruo Yu's attention. Wang Ruo Yu asked that person to help tidy up instead. The Rubik's Cubes were meant as a confession, but the employee simply put them away, and Wang Ruo Yu didn't even see them.

Ye Zhi Qiu came out, and Chen Hu Sheng asked someone to call them over. Chen Hu Sheng had heard that Ye Zhi Qiu hadn't been doing well recently, but Ye Zhi Qiu claimed to be fine. Chen Hu Sheng suggested that Ye Zhi Qiu wasn't being honest and asked if they were afraid of being mocked. Ye Zhi Qiu could only admit that things weren't going smoothly for them.

Chen Hu Sheng said that when autumn comes, Ye Zhi Qiu would be the first fallen leaf, and they should think carefully about it.

Yang Zi's father drives a taxi and gives Yang Zi a ride back home. Yang Zi talks about their current situation and expresses surprise at how everyone has turned out like this recently. Yang Zi Feng Qin, on the other hand, believes that this is normal. Everyone has their own selfish motives, and when there are selfish motives, there will be conflicts of interest. This is just the beginning. Previously, they seemed harmonious, but that was because everyone had hidden their selfishness.

Yang Zi's father asks them to sit down and talk things out, to clarify and resolve them. Chen Hu Sheng hails a taxi, and it happens to be Yang Zi's father's car. Yang Zi's father asks Yang Zi to get off and gives them some money. Chen Hu Sheng tells Yang Zi's father about his son, while Chen Hu Sheng's assistant calls him and informs him that they have arrived to pick him up. Chen Hu Sheng asks Yang Zi's father to let him get off here.

Yang Zi's father thinks it's just a few steps away and won't take any money, but Chen Hu Sheng gives him a substantial amount of money as a token of respect for a father who loves his son. Ye Zhi Qiu returns and says they have thought it through and hopes Chen Hu Sheng can give them a chance.

The housing subsidy program is about to be launched, and Yu Peng Yue and Yang Zi worked overnight. Zhou Yan feels that it's enough for them as brothers, and they shouldn't let others work overtime like this, as the employees will have objections. Yu Peng Yue says that as the chairman, they lead by example, so what objections can these employees have? Such employees will be eliminated by the company.

Yu Peng Yue comes to find Wang Ruo Yu and asks if they have time in the evening. Wang Ruo Yu asks what the matter is and suggests that if it's nothing important, they should go out and not disturb their work. Yu Peng Yue expresses their intention to pursue Wang Ruo Yu, and Wang Ruo Yu says they will give them a chance to change themselves.

Wang Ruo Yu clarifies that it doesn't mean they will immediately forgive Yu Peng Yue. Wang Ruo Yu doesn't want to be hurt and, after returning home, talks to Xu Zi Shan about the situation. She is afraid of getting hurt.
