Episode 13 recap: Sun Bai Fen and Liang Liang's Relationship Progresses

In episode 13, Yuan Chang Jiang rushed to the hospital for a check-up, and the news wasn't good - the cancer cells had spread again. However, he's a stubborn old man, keeping his discomfort to himself. He quietly confided in his old barber friend Wang, not wanting his neighbors to know and look at him with pity, as he's always tried to act cool in life.

On the other hand, Liu Qi Meng led a group of spirited grandmothers to bargain with Teacher Lu. Ah Fang, a master negotiator, engaged in a war of words and managed to get the hourly tuition fee slashed from 500 to just 50 dollars. The grandmothers were thrilled, praising Ah Fang's bargaining prowess.

What they didn't know was that Liu Qi Meng had already privately communicated with Teacher Lu beforehand, and would secretly make up the difference. Teacher Lu was an easygoing person and went along with it. The grandmothers were elated, already planning how to divide the prize money.

As for the dance troupe's name, Liu Qi Meng came up with "Five Thousand People Dance Troupe," which the group unanimously approved of.

Joining the dance troupe was a mixed blessing for Aunt Yue'e. The high-interest loan sharks were hounding her, and all the money she earned had to go towards repaying the debt. Luckily, her sensible son An Ning secretly brought home the candy box Liu Qi Meng had given, which was filled with money, leaving Aunt Yue'e deeply moved to tears.

Regarding Sun Bai Fen, she kept going to Liang Liang's clinic for therapy, constantly glued to her phone, much to Liang Liang's dismay. When Liang Liang tried acupuncture instead, Sun Bai Fen got scared and made an excuse to leave. Stuck outside in the rain, she ended up staying and chatting with Liang Liang over tea. From then on, Sun Bai Fen became a regular at Liang Liang's clinic, taking selfies after each session, with Liang Liang often inadvertently appearing in the frame. Their relationship gradually grew closer.

One time, Sun Bai Fen brought Liang Liang a late-night snack, but his straight-laced personality led him to insist she take the leftovers home. Annoyed, Sun Bai Fen was about to leave, but Liang Liang chased after her, and they ended up at his place. Coincidentally, Liu Xiu Ying saw them and thought they were dating, wanting to join in the fun, but Ah Fang quickly pulled her away, not wanting to disrupt the delicate atmosphere.

Liu Qi Meng asked Liu Xiu Ying to help with dance rehearsals, which she reluctantly agreed to. Liu Qi Meng taught the grandmothers painting, while Liu Xiu Ying taught them dancing, but the next day Liu Xiu Ying had forgotten everything, leading to an awkward situation.

As for Fei Fei and Wang Yi Ming's situation, Fei Fei overheard her colleagues gossiping about their relationship in the elevator, making her furious. She called Wang Yi Ming out, but he declined, citing a meeting. Angered, Fei Fei barged into the office, only to be "asked" to leave due to a visit from company executives.

After Fei Fei left, the company meeting continued. When Sun Kai introduced the Wudu Poetry Rain project, the design didn't impress the boss, who said it lacked impact. Wang Yi Ming then called on Liu Qi Meng to present the art design, much to Liu Xiu Ying's panic, who quickly called her granddaughter for remote assistance. Workplace life is indeed full of unexpected twists and turns.
