Episode 25 recap: Chen Xiao Man is moving out of the Chen Hua Feng household.
Chen Xiao Man is preparing to move out on her own, and when she told Chen Hua Feng, she saw that he was very upset. Chen Xiao Man also felt very uncomfortable about it. After her father passed away, her uncle had taken her in, and she had been living with Chen Xun Tong and Chen Xun Yao, enjoying the same treatment until she went to university. Now that the children have all grown up, Chen Hua Feng has had a lot on his mind. With the constant turmoil, it's probably best for Chen Xiao Man to move out and have some peace and quiet for a while.
Since Chen Xiao Man broke up with Ke Yan, Ke Yan has been in a bad mood every day, as if he's suddenly lost his backbone. 77 asked him about his business, but he's been too lazy to push things forward. Zhou Shi An saw that Chen Xiao Man has been sitting motionless in the workshop for two days, and he's very worried. He was even prepared to go and confront Chen Hua Feng, but Chen Hua Yun stopped him, telling him to give the two of them time. Since she has chosen the path of pottery, there are many things she needs to face. The conservative Chen Hua Feng needs to embrace more innovative thinking, while Chen Xiao Man must also face the realities outside, not just rumors, and learn to adjust her mood.
These days, Dun Ge has been keeping Chen Xiao Man company, hoping she'll feel better. Chen Xiao Man has been immersing herself in the research of porcelain molding in the studio. Meanwhile, Yu Jian has been anxious, having heard the news of Chen Xiao Man's breakup. He really wants to go and visit her, but his father Zhou Shi An keeps reminding him to be mindful of the distance and propriety. Chen Xiao Man and Yu Jian are not on the same level, and his family feels guilty towards Chen Xiao Man, so they can't have any improper thoughts. Yu Jian has liked Chen Xiao Man since he was young, and now that she's within reach, yet unattainable, it's like there are many ants gnawing at his heart. Zhou Shi An understands that Chen Xiao Man and Ke Yan are a better match in terms of ability, and he reminds Yu Jian not to interfere, or else Chen Xiao Man may not even call him "big brother" anymore.
Zhao Jun always invites Dun Ge out to eat together. One day, the two of them ran into Zhao Zhi Hong, and Zhao Jun directly introduced Dun Ge as his girlfriend. After Zhao Zhi Hong left, Dun Ge felt very awkward and asked Zhao Jun when she had become his girlfriend. Zhao Jun immediately confessed his feelings to Dun Ge, saying that he had fallen for her at first sight and is now even more certain that Dun Ge is the one he wants.
Yu Jian still wants to try his luck. One time, he helped Xiao Man go up the mountain to look for porcelain shards, and with just the two of them around, Yu Jian opened his heart to her. Chen Xiao Man listened carefully, but she could only say that she has always seen him as an older brother. In the end, what Zhou Shi An said was right - Yu Jian is a bit flustered. He explained that no matter what role he plays in Chen Xiao Man's life in the future, he will do his utmost to protect and support her.
On his way down the mountain, Yu Jian happened to run into Ke Yan. Ke Yan had already heard Yu Jian's confession to Chen Xiao Man. He didn't want to take advantage of the situation, but he asked Yu Jian to pass on a message: he wants Chen Xiao Man to be very careful of Xu Mian.
