Episode 28 recap: Xu Meng An persuaded Xu Meng Xin to take her medicine.
Since Xu Meng Xin has been suffering from postpartum depression, Jia Hao Wen has been frequently visiting the hospital to personally care for her. Many projects at the company have been put on hold due to the absence of the manager, and Jia Hao Wen has missed several board meetings. Employees have been taking documents to the maternity center to get Jia Hao Wen's signature, and they also urge him to visit the office more often.
Jia Hao Wen understands that the company is busy, but his wife's health condition and the need to care for their young daughter make it difficult for him to leave. Upon returning to the room, he finds that Xu Meng Xin is still running a fever, with pain all over her body, head, and abdomen. Due to the sudden weaning, Xu Meng Xin's chest is engorged, causing a headache and pain everywhere. The mother-in-law has brought a traditional Chinese medicine prepared by Li Jing and placed it by the window, but Xu Meng Xin finds the smell nauseating. After taking a sip, she asks her mother-in-law about the ingredients, and learns that it contains earthworms, which she refuses to drink.
Xu Meng An arrives at the maternity center and sees Jia Hao Wen's worried expression, scolding the mother-in-law for revealing the truth about the earthworms to Xu Meng Xin. Xu Meng An takes the medicine and enters the room, using her seniority to persuade Xu Meng Xin to drink the entire dose, as she herself had taken a similar remedy when she was engorged.
Qian Peng, who had previously harassed Chen Wan Zhen in the basement, has been harboring a grudge and has started spreading rumors on the internet, trying to prevent Chen Wan Zhen from succeeding at her new company. Zhou Yao, understanding Chen Wan Zhen's character, gathers all the information and immediately announces Chen Wan Zhen's promotion to deputy general manager in front of all the employees. The power of authority cannot be underestimated, and those people no longer dare to make fun of Chen Wan Zhen, allowing her to focus more on her work.
Zhou Yao also found Qian Peng and confirmed that he was the one spreading the rumors. He warned Qian Peng to immediately write a guarantee letter, or else he would be sent to the police station. Qian Peng, feeling guilty like a thief, was naturally afraid of going to the police station again, so he immediately wrote a guarantee not to harass Chen Wan Zhen anymore. After work, Zhou Yao personally drove Chen Wan Zhen home and prepared flowers and gifts for her, showing her the video of Qian Peng's written guarantee. Chen Wan Zhen was very grateful for all that her old classmate had done for her.
This scene was witnessed by Yu Chen, who was driving a very luxurious car and was a successful businessman. He felt a sense of inferiority.
After Xu Meng An delegated authority, Huang Si Si truly achieved some results, bringing a wave of traffic to the company. The CEO was very satisfied and even sent a big red packet in the group chat.
With the new employee being favored, Xu Meng An naturally felt neglected. She told her husband about it, and the open-minded Li Lin advised her to focus on taking care of her own health first, and they can discuss it again after she has a successful delivery. Li Jing noticed that Xu Meng An's blood pressure was a bit high and decided to have her sister-in-law bring lunch from home starting the next day. Xu Meng An quickly gave Li Lin a look, as no one in the company brought their own lunch. Li Lin promptly suggested that Xu Meng An re-measure her blood pressure, which was still a bit high. Xu Meng An immediately listened to her elder sister and agreed to bring her own lunch from home starting the next day.
Huang Si Si's initial victory was celebrated, and she immediately treated all her colleagues to cake and drinks. Now, most of the company's employees were beginning to lean towards Huang Si Si. Xu Meng An saw this, and although it was difficult to swallow, she still put on a smile and joined everyone in eating the cake for the sake of the greater good.
