Episode 16 recap: Luo Cheng was caught and apprehended.

Xia Hua saw her brother Xia Ze returning home and teased him about which girlfriend he had found. Upon learning it was Ma Zhuo, she was happy and felt her brother had skills. Although Xia Hua was concerned about the inn business, Xia Ze proposed expanding their fame through live streaming to attract influencers to stay for free, which she thought was a good idea.

Xiao Zhe strongly supported Yu An Duo's pursuit of her music dream, and the two were in a sweet relationship. However, Yu An Duo was worried that Xiao Zhe was settling because he had not caught up to Ma Zhuo, fearing their marriage would be like her parents' - outwardly affectionate but full of conflict internally. Xiao Zhe understood her concerns and said their relationship was more genuine, and his obsession with Ma Zhuo was just a fixation. Although he was troubled by the pressure to get married and pay a betrothal gift, he did not stop it.

Ma Zhuo asked her friends to help find Luo's missing father. She felt Luo was hiding something and demanded she be honest. When Luo saw Xia Ze, she cleverly sought his help. During tutoring, Ma Zhuo discovered Luo knew almost nothing, which angered him. Xia Ze came with fruit and lighthearted questions to defuse the situation, but they were unresolvable, so he pulled Ma Zhuo inside to ask for help. Xiao Zhe and Yu An Duo were happy together, but Yu De Kai warned her not to force their feelings. Xia Ze comforted Luo, believing no news was good news, and decided to help her find Luo Cheng on her birthday. On Luo's birthday, she had a fever, and Ma Zhuo warned her to take care of her health. Xiao Zhe was jealous of the song Yu An Duo wrote at the inn. Luo hoped her father would return, but Luo Cheng suddenly appeared and gave her a computer. Luo wished for her father to come home and go find Yu De Kai, but Luo Cheng warned her to be careful. However, the police suddenly appeared and arrested Luo Cheng, and Luo suspected Ma Zhuo and the others had called the police.
