Episode 13 recap: Chen Huan ran into Lin Ping Ping and a boy having a meal together.
Professor Dong's other graduate student, Yao Lan, came to find Professor Dong and told him that she also wants to participate in this research project, but with a condition that Chen Huan has to withdraw. She felt that Professor Dong was biased towards Chen Huan, and she wanted the professor to be fair. Professor Dong told her that the reason he treated Chen Huan this way was because Chen Huan was very diligent and how many people could work with him for four consecutive years without taking a break.
However, Yao Lan felt that Chen Huan was now only focused on his relationship and had not put his mind to the research. Professor Dong told her that he can let her join the research project, but she has to be single-minded and put aside any thoughts that she should not have.
Liang Zi came to find Da Hai again, and Da Hai knew that he must have something to discuss. Liang Zi said he heard that Da Hai's business deal was successful, and Da Hai immediately gave Liang Zi 10,000 yuan.
Liang Zi went home and gave the money to Pan Tao, who was surprised by this. She asked Liang Zi where the money came from, and Liang Zi told her it was the commission from Da Hai's successful business deal. Liang Zi asked Pan Tao to guess how much Da Hai had earned, and Liang Zi held up two fingers, but Pan Tao thought it was 20,000 yuan and believed Da Hai was very generous to give Liang Zi half.
Liang Zi then told her it was 100,000 yuan, and Pan Tao became unhappy, feeling that Liang Zi was letting the "fat water" flow out.
The fat auntie from across the street came to find Da Hai and invited him to play mahjong, but Da Hai said he didn't know how to play. The fat auntie said Da Hai didn't know how to do anything, and it would be better if he just died.
Chen Qing, who had come to find Da Hai, overheard this and made some sarcastic comments to Da Hai. Da Hai told her that he now had a bit of money and many people were trying to get close to him, but he had to be selective and couldn't just go with the fat auntie.
Chen Qing came to discuss something important with Da Hai - she asked him what he thought about Chen Huan getting married. Da Hai said that if they need to move out, they can move out, and if they need money, he can also provide.
Yao Lan told Chen Huan that she had applied to join the research group with Professor Dong, and she told Chen Huan that she was a black and white person - if they couldn't be friends, they would be rivals.
Chen Huan told her that they had known each other for six years, and there was no need for this. Yao Lan said it had been six years, but Chen Huan could make jokes with all the girls in the class, yet he always had a stern face towards her. Chen Huan didn't know what was going on, and felt there must be a misunderstanding between them.
Yao Lan told Chen Huan that she just wanted him to remember her, so that in the future if he hated her, he would have a reason. Pan Tao asked Hu Gui Lan if Chen Huan's marriage was coming up soon, and Hu Gui Lan said it should be soon. She wanted to ask Pan Tao for a favor - she wanted Pan Tao to help embroider a pair of embroidered pillows for Chen Huan.
Pan Tao told her not to worry about it, he would take care of it. Hu Gui Lan asked Chen Huan if they should invite Lin Ping Ping to go eat seafood with them today. Chen Huan asked her if she thought they should invite her, and Hu Gui Lan felt they should.
Chen Huan called Lin Ping Ping, but she said she was too busy with work to go. Hu Gui Lan told Chen Huan he needed to hurry up with the matter between him and Lin Ping Ping, and asked what he thought about their housing situation. Chen Huan said it was still early, but Hu Gui Lan told him not to keep putting it off.
Liu Wei was planning to invite the director to discuss the script, and wanted Lin Ping Ping to join the meeting too. But when the director arrived, Liu Wei made an excuse to leave.
Hu Gui Lan asked Chen Huan to go buy some alcohol. On his way, Chen Huan ran into Ji Hong Bing, who invited him to go hiking, but Chen Huan said he had something to do.
The director was chatting with Lin Ping Ping about work, and ended up inviting her to dinner. During the meal, the director kept complimenting Lin Ping Ping and even gave her flowers. Coincidentally, Chen Huan's family was also eating at the same restaurant, and he went to get some cola for his cousin Chen Xiao Ou.
The director asked Lin Ping Ping if she had a boyfriend, and Lin Ping Ping asked what difference it made. The director said he wanted to pursue Lin Ping Ping, and Lin Ping Ping said she already had a boyfriend and they were about to get married.
