Episode 7 recap: Ji Xing rejected Shao Yi Chen's marriage proposal.
Li Li helped Ji Xing find an investor named Wu Lan Xiang, but since their meeting times conflicted, Ji Xing had her partner Su Zhi Zhou go negotiate instead. This was Su Zhi Zhou's first time meeting a client, and he was very nervous, but with Li Li there, he was able to relax a bit. However, it turned out that the client Wu Lan Xiang was using the business meeting as a front to try to hit on the women.
Su Zhi Zhou heard the client's negotiation terms were extremely harsh, far exceeding their expectations, and the deal did not go through. As they were leaving, Su Zhi Zhou saw Wu Lan Xiang trying to take advantage of Li Li, putting his arm around her. Just then, they ran into Wu Lan Xiang's wife in the elevator, and he quickly removed his hand.
Wu Lan Xiang's wife misunderstood the situation and said some very rude things to Li Li. Not only did Wu Lan Xiang not help explain, he even tried to slander Li Li. Just as Wu Lan Xiang's wife was about to slap Li Li, Li Li grabbed her hand and slapped Wu Lan Xiang instead, saying an unscrupulous man like him deserved it. After firmly clarifying the truth, Li Li left. Her courage and action deeply impressed Su Zhi Zhou, as he had never seen a woman directly slap a man before.
After parting ways with Su Zhi Zhou, Li Li was in a foul mood. While slapping Wu Lan Xiang had been cathartic, she was worried it might negatively impact her work. Li Li went to a nightclub to unwind, where she met an attractive "playboy" and they ended up spending the night together.
The next morning, Li Li received a call that she had been fired. Unfazed, she casually bid farewell to her "partner" from the previous night without even exchanging contact information. Li Li had no idea that her "noodles" the previous evening had been with Xiao Yi Xiao.
To celebrate their 4-year anniversary, Ji Xing and Shao Yi Chen went to a concert together. There, they ran into Han Ting and Ji Xing's former manager. Ji Xing introduced Shao Yi Chen, letting Han Ting know she now had a boyfriend, which left Han Ting feeling quite dejected.
During the concert, Ji Xing had to temporarily leave due to work matters. Shao Yi Chen patiently waited for her at home, and when Ji Xing finally returned, he proposed to her with an engagement ring. Ji Xing accepted the ring, but she currently had no plans for marriage as she was at a critical point in her career.
Ji Xing and Su Zhi Zhou tried many avenues to borrow a printer, but without success. Eventually, Su Zhi Zhou reached out to a college friend, paying a large deposit, but the friend then disappeared completely. Su Zhi Zhou realized they had been swindled, and the 300,000 yuan was lost. Ji Xing had even borrowed 10,000 yuan from Li Li, leaving them in a very dire financial situation.
Unable to secure funding, Su Zhi Zhou reluctantly went to see Han Ting, showing him the software they had developed in hopes of getting financial support. Han Ting carefully reviewed their progress, and while acknowledging their personal relationship, he advised Su Zhi Zhou to consider the proposal he had previously mentioned.
Due to the intense work and irregular eating habits, Ji Xing fainted at the office. Her colleagues sent her to the hospital and notified Su Zhi Zhou. Han Ting happened to be with Su Zhi Zhou at the time, and upon hearing of Ji Xing's collapse, they immediately rushed to the hospital.
Seeing Ji Xing lying pale and hooked up to an IV, Han Ting was deeply concerned. He urged Su Zhi Zhou to come up with a solution as soon as possible.
