Episode 18 recap: Xiao En set a trap for Ma Zhuo.

Xiao Zhe and Yu An Duo took photos together, and he hoped that Yu An Duo would hear the songs he had composed. Yu An Duo thought the lyrics were good, but the music needed to be improved. Xiao Zhe joked that he would give everything to have Yu An Duo help him refine it.Yu De Kai and Xiao En discussed their children's future, believing that fate had brought them together, and that it was best to go with the flow. Xiao's mother deeply loved Yu An Duo and was convinced that she would be her future daughter-in-law. Xiao En had some doubts, but Xiao's mother insisted that Mo Li, who was present, could testify to this.

Xiao's mother reminisced about Mo Li and said she wanted to take care of Yu An Duo in her stead. Xiao En marveled at the wonders of fate, while Yu De Kai just hoped for his daughter's happiness and did not want to interfere too much. Xiao Zhe promised to give Yu An Duo a happy life. Yu De Kai inquired about his daughter's feelings for Xiao Zhe, and Yu An Duo said they had been childhood friends and shared a common love for music, and they understood each other.

Yu De Kai knew this but did not want to say it outright, only hoping for his daughter's happiness. Officer Geng saw that Ma Zhuo was worried, and Ma Zhuo said that marriage was different from dating and did not necessarily bring happiness. Officer Geng encouraged her to be honest with herself and express her true thoughts. Ma Zhuo asked Xiao Zhe when he would get married, and Xiao Zhe revealed that they planned to have a destination wedding instead of a formal ceremony.

Ma Zhuo invited Xia Ze to dinner, but Xia Ze coldly responded that he could put the leftovers in the fridge.

Xiao En took Ma Zhuo to meet a client, and the client praised Xiao En as a talented young man. Ma Zhuo dropped Luo Diu Diu off at home, and Luo Diu Diu gave her advice on how to win Xia Ze back.

Although Xia Ze outwardly said he was not in a hurry, he secretly looked forward to Ma Zhuo's text messages. On Ma Zhuo's birthday, she declined a colleague's invitation to a group gathering, wanting to have dinner with Xia Ze instead. However, Xia Ze refused, citing being busy. When Ma Zhuo returned home and saw the gifts from Xia Ze and the others, her mood brightened.

Xia Hua, Hu Wan, Xia Ze, and Luo Diu Diu all gathered to celebrate Ma Zhuo's birthday, making it an unforgettable occasion for her. Xia Ze had bought the apartment where Ma Zhuo lived, which touched her deeply and made her agree to confess her feelings. Ma Zhuo candidly expressed that she wanted to be sincere with Xia Ze. Xiao Ze was inwardly delighted to hear that Ma Zhuo was upset because he had not been in touch.

Ma Zhuo was unaware that she had been framed by Xiao En, and she wanted to give him a chance, but ended up being demoted. Xiao Zhe's plea was unsuccessful. Ma Zhuo suspected that Xiao En had a hidden agenda, and Xia Ze felt they should investigate further. After school, Luo Diu Diu was accosted by a stranger, but she cleverly sought help from Ma Zhuo, using her lawyer credentials to intimidate the other party.

The other party revealed that Luo Cheng and Xin Hai had conspired to harm people, and Ma Zhuo guessed that Xiao En was the real controlling shareholder, secretly making profits without Yu De Kai's knowledge.
