Episode 8 recap: Xia Guo and Yu Jian's relationship is facing a crisis.
Just when Xia Guo thought everything was going well, unexpectedly, Chen Nan appeared out of nowhere and signed a contract with the anchor Xiao Jie for 1.2 million. While Xia Guo and Chen Nan were arguing, Chen Nan's assistant came to report that the company did not approve the endorsement contract with Xiao Jie, but instead approved the endorsement fee for Mr. Xue, a champion born in the 1990s.
Chen Nan confronted Mr. Xue, but he didn't expect him to be so scheming, using subordinates to buy himself time. Mr. Xue claimed that he didn't use anyone and that subordinates report to their superiors, so there was no need to report to Xia Guo. Xia Guo was also angry that Mr. Xue explained himself to her after Chen Nan left. He told Xia Guo that things were not as she saw them and that he had made a more valuable decision.
Xia Guo felt that Mr. Xue had never believed in her. She now realized that she was just a pawn in the struggle between Mr. Xue and Chen Nan. After this incident, Chen Nan chose to resign and took clients with him. However, it was all speculation. Xia Guo knew that the TNE project was important and didn't want Chen Nan to take it away. So she decided to win back the client, no matter what her colleagues at the company said. She would only do what she believed was right.
But Xia Guo hit a wall with the director of TNE. Helpless, Xia Guo arranged to meet with Chen Nan. Chen Nan didn't stab Mr. Xue in the back. She also had a conflict with Mr. Xue because she had been with the company for 11 years, but a newly appointed general manager was one level above her. However, she didn't think Mr. Xue had any attachment to the company. She felt he only cared about immediate benefits.
But for Xia Guo, Chen Nan had used her, so she felt owed a favor. Seeing Xia Guo in trouble this time, Chen Nan also wanted to help her, so she pointed her in the right direction. Mr. Xue had a close relationship with the chairman of Huan Shi Group, and the shops in the group's mall were in high demand. TNE's goal this year was to enter Huan Shi's mall. Xia Guo understood Chen Nan's intention and was very grateful for her help.
Xia Guo approached Mr. Xue with her own idea, using the same method on him, hoping that he could help secure a shop in Huan Shi's mall.
Mr. Xue wasn't confident, but he reviewed Xia Guo's plan and was willing to give it a try. In the end, TNE and Hao Wei reconciled and signed the contract. Yu Jian's relationship with Wen Ya in his hometown was getting closer, to the surprise of even Yu Jian's mother.
Because Yu Jian's design was not easily modifiable, but Wen Ya made changes and he didn't get angry. He even expressed approval. Yu Jian's mother thought this girl was extraordinary. Xia Guo received a photo from Ping Jie in Shanghai. Ping Jie had thought for a long time before deciding to send it to Xia Guo. Xia Guo saw Yu Jian and Wen Ya in the photo, laughing happily together. Coupled with Ping Jie's reminder to be vigilant, she felt her hidden worries had become a reality. Distance had created a blind spot in the relationship between Yu Jian and Xia Guo. At that moment, Xia Guo didn't know who to believe anymore.
In a parallel timeline, Yu Jian and Xia Guo in the small town had reached the point of breaking up. Later, it was Yu Jian's mother who personally approached Xia Guo, but Xia Guo said that her relationship with Yu Jian could only be resolved by themselves. Wang Yan arranged a blind date for Xia Guo. When Xia Guo arrived and listened to the other person, she realized she had been deceived by her mother. However, Xia Guo later mentioned that she had a boyfriend and shared their story.
The conversation between Xia Guo and the blind date went well, but Yu Jian, who was secretly observing, misunderstood. He deliberately let a child cause trouble and took the opportunity to take Xia Guo away. Xia Guo didn't want to say much to Yu Jian and left on her own. Yu Jian returned to the hotel to find Xia Guo's blind date and told him that Xia Guo was his wife. They had a minor disagreement, and he warned the man not to have any ideas about Xia Guo.
Later, Yu Jian listened to what the man said and found out that Xia Guo had already mentioned him and shared their romantic story. Yu Jian quickly ran out to find Xia Guo.
