Episode 16 recap: Xia Guo wanted to marry Mr. Xue but didn't get a response.
Yu Jian expressed his apology to Xia Guo in his own way. Whenever he had time, he would buy some baby supplies and leave them at Xia Guo's doorstep. He also installed a baby crib at her doorstep. Yan Yan went to visit Xia Guo to apologize. She came to let Xia Guo know that if it wasn't for her, Xia Guo and Yu Jian wouldn't have reached this point today.
Xia Guo no longer harbored any resentment. Everything was in the past. As an aunt, Yan Yan went to see her nephew for the first time and gave him a gold bracelet. Xia Guo comforted Yan Yan, assuring her that she would also have children in the future. Yu Jian and his mother went to Xia Guo's house, hoping to see the child. This time, their wish was finally fulfilled. Wang Yan let them, the mother and son, enter the house, and Yu Jian's mother was overjoyed to hold her grandson.
Xia Guo recalled the day of giving birth and still felt aggrieved. She didn't know who to blame. At that time, Yan Yan's life was in danger, but Xia Guo's pain was also unforgettable in her life. However, Yu Jian was the child's father after all, and she wanted to give the child a complete family, so she wouldn't separate from Yu Jian.
But for now, Xia Guo decided to live in her own home. This decision made both mothers unhappy. Wang Yan believed that Yu Jian's mother wouldn't mistreat her grandson, so it wouldn't be a problem for Xia Guo and the child to live there. However, Xia Guo just wanted to be in her own home. If her mother cared about the house, she could pay for it herself.
On Yu Jian's side, he was also persuading his mother. Yu Jian's mother felt that Xia Guo was still blaming herself, but Yu Jian believed that it was most important for Xia Guo to feel comfortable at this stage. Only when she was comfortable and happy could they see the child at any time. During the Chinese New Year, Yu Jian brought Xia Guo and the child to his mother's house to celebrate. The grandparents were very happy to see the child, and Xia Guo felt the happiness of life. She began to hope that time could pass slower and slower.
In a parallel timeline, Xia Guo's relationship with Mr. Xue is also very pleasant. Their little episodes are all in the past, and now they cuddle together, watching TV and enjoying their romantic world as a couple. After the Chinese New Year, Mr. Xue came across a decent job opportunity, but the workplace was in Singapore. Mr. Xue made it clear that he wanted to consider his girlfriend's feelings.
Lucy and Di Mu are getting married, and Xia Guo received the wedding invitation. However, Mr. Xue needs to go to Singapore for a summit, so he can't accompany Xia Guo to the Maldives for the wedding. To express his apology, he has already bought a dress in advance and went with Xia Guo to choose a wedding gift for Lucy. Xia Guo's heart felt less sorrowful.
Having spent so much time with Mr. Xue, Xia Guo also wants to have a sense of belonging. However, it seems that Mr. Xue is deliberately avoiding the topic of marriage. When Xia Guo saw Mr. Xue busy installing lights, she suddenly brought up the topic of marriage, but Mr. Xue pretended not to hear. Xia Guo stopped asking further. In Leshan, Xia Guo found an aunt because she wanted to go out and find a job. Otherwise, she would become disconnected from society. Yu Jian was not very willing, but he couldn't resist Xia Guo either.
Yu Jian attended a gathering at Wen Ya's small shop and shared his confusion with her. Women understand women, and Wen Ya understood Xia Guo's feelings very well. Girls have their own dreams and are independent individuals, not someone's daughter, wife, or mother. So, Wen Ya completely understood Xia Guo's actions.
After listening to Wen Ya's words, Yu Jian realized that he had overlooked Xia Guo's feelings.
