Episode 14 recap: Xia Guo's Underground Romance with CEO Xue Exposed.
Li Qiu Man was unwilling to accept it. She knew that CEO Xue was going to date Xia Guo. Once again, she used their child, Mi Gao. Xia Guo, on the other hand, was understanding. She wanted to give CEO Xue and Mi Gao space to bond and naturally accept her presence. Li Qiu Man somewhat understood why CEO Xue would like Xia Guo, but she reminded Xia Guo to ask CEO Xue about his future plans and whether Xia Guo had a place in them.
Li Qiu Man's words awakened Xia Guo. She had to admit that their future together was indeed a forbidden topic. Her feelings for CEO Xue were growing deeper, and her dependence on him was increasing. Her own plans revolved around CEO Xue, but she didn't know if she had a place in his future.
Xia Guo was well aware that when she started to worry about these things, her love became humble, and she became more deeply trapped. Xia Guo and CEO Xue went to a restaurant to eat, and at the restaurant, CEO Xue ran into an acquaintance. He didn't dare to openly introduce Xia Guo as his girlfriend, while the other person openly introduced his girlfriend. Xia Guo felt very disappointed.
She knew that office romances were not allowed, but even on weekends, CEO Xue had to be secretive about going out for a meal. This made Xia Guo very uncomfortable. CEO Xue told Xia Guo that he was protecting the precious relationship between them. When Xia Guo went to the office, she found out that Lucy had been fired because Chairman Wang found out about her relationship with Di Mu.
Xia Guo immediately went to find Lucy, who was very sad. She started blaming herself for forcing Di Mu to marry her, and as a result, when Di Mu told his father about it, it led to the current situation. Xia Guo's mother came to Shanghai and asked her to have a meal together. CEO Xue accompanied her to the restaurant, and Wang Yan happened to see them embracing, which was very surprising.
Xia Guo noticed the white hair on her mother's head and had indescribable feelings in her heart, but she couldn't express her concern. She just coldly asked if her mother had been busy lately.
Xia Guo returned home after dinner and found Mi Gao at home. CEO Xue explained to Xia Guo that Li Qiu Man was not at home due to a meeting, and Mi Gao couldn't sleep alone, so the nanny brought him over to find him.
Xia Guo wasn't upset about Mi Gao finding his father. She had accepted Li Qiu Man's targeting her at the company, but when her mother traveled all the way to Shanghai and CEO Xue didn't even mention meeting her, Xia Guo felt uneasy. CEO Xue started explaining again, feeling that it was abrupt to suddenly meet Xia Guo's mother. The acquaintance they met at the restaurant last time was merely a nod in business matters, so he didn't feel the need to reveal his personal life completely.
CEO Xue only had one girlfriend in his heart, Xia Guo. He was currently dissatisfied with Li Qiu Man but wouldn't confront her directly because they had a daughter, Mi Gao, and he had to consider Mi Gao's feelings. CEO Xue quickly soothed Xia Guo with a few words and then sent her home. When he returned home that night, CEO Xue found Li Qiu Man at home. Li Qiu Man didn't expect CEO Xue to be so irresponsible, leaving their daughter to come find her while he went out in the middle of the night. CEO Xue couldn't be bothered to argue with her, claiming he was tired, and asked Li Qiu Man to accompany Mi Gao to sleep while he slept in the guest room.
Xia Guo left the company after work, and Li Qiu Man happened to see her. Li Qiu Man deliberately organized a meeting and had a colleague contact Xia Guo. Since Xia Guo's phone couldn't be reached, Li Qiu Man intentionally mentioned that Xia Guo might be on the b3 floor, prompting the colleague to chase after her. Unexpectedly, the colleague saw CEO Xue taking Xia Guo away on the b3 floor, and she didn't dare to stop them, so she came back to report the situation to Li Qiu Man.
Li Qiu Man achieved her goal. She wanted everyone in the department to know about Xia Guo and CEO Xue's relationship. The next morning, Xia Guo discovered through the company group chat that her personal matters had become public. Everyone thought she was a third party, and there was even a video of her and CEO Xue kissing in the car. Xia Guo was called to the company by the chairman for a conversation, and she decided to take responsibility and voluntarily resigned. However, CEO Xue had already submitted his resignation earlier, and the chairman knew that CEO Xue had been sincerely protecting Xia Guo.
