Episode 2 recap: Xiao Ning Agrees to Get Married
In Episode 2, as the wedding cannons fired, the atmosphere was instantly set. Lu Sijing quietly withdrew, and Tu Xiao Ning finally felt the weight lifted from her heart. All she wanted was to find a reliable partner and live a peaceful, stable life. When Ji Yu Heng unexpectedly asked her about their future, Xiao Ning jokingly suggested they try blind dating again. But when they arrived, Ji Yu Heng suddenly turned serious and asked Xiao Ning if she wanted to have her own little family and live together with him.
It turns out Ji Yu Heng had been interested in Xiao Ning since high school, but kept it hidden. Years later, he chose the blind dating route, secretly hoping to reconnect with Xiao Ning, not wanting to miss the chance again. That chance encounter in the elevator, with the unexpected breakdown, made Ji Yu Heng feel like he was in heaven, thinking Xiao Ning had agreed to him. But Xiao Ning just frantically shook her head, saying she hadn't decided yet.
Back in the office, Xiao Ning almost took the blame, but luckily Rao Jing, though seeming stern, was actually training her. One time in the elevator, Xiao Ning accidentally overheard a conversation about labor dispatch, and Ji Yu Heng's unwavering sense of justice warmed her heart, making her understand there are no shortcuts in the workplace - she had to strive through her own efforts.
Working late into the night, Xiao Ning was left alone in the pouring rain. Passing by her old workplace, she was filled with complex emotions. With her phone dead and umbrella blown away, she crouched on the ground, tears mingling with the rainwater. That's when Ji Yu Heng appeared like a savior, his care and warmth making Xiao Ning feel very safe.
Ji Yu Heng took Xiao Ning up the mountain, and she suddenly brought up the topic of marriage, saying she was facing difficulties at work. As Ji Yu Heng worked in the compliance department, Xiao Ning decided to confront the issue head-on. She put in her utmost effort to gather evidence, eventually finding it with Ji Yu Heng's help. Facing the investigation, Xiao Ning was honest, and her thorough responses saved her from punishment. Rao Jing was delighted, knowing she had not misjudged Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning told her best friend Ling Wei Yi about Ji Yu Heng's accidental proposal, and Ling Wei Yi was thrilled, saying they were a perfect match. At work, Manager Zhao tried to win over Xiao Ning, but luckily Rao Jing stepped in to help her. While waiting for Rao Jing at the hospital, Xiao Ning unexpectedly ran into Ji Yu Heng and walked with him. But Ji Yu Heng's mother mistook Xiao Ning for her daughter-in-law, happily accepting her gift.
Xiao Ning was conflicted, but didn't have the heart to correct the misunderstanding. What she didn't expect was that Ji Yu Heng's mother's condition suddenly worsened, requiring a large sum of money for treatment, and time was of the essence. Xiao Ning then understood why Ji Yu Heng was so eager to get married.
Xiao Ning had mixed feelings, but remembered how Ji Yu Heng had always mentioned her to his mother, which warmed her heart. After finishing her work, she waited for Ji Yu Heng. As night fell, she took him to the night market and then the university campus, reminiscing about their past. Under the starry sky, Ji Yu Heng spoke from the heart, saying he chose Xiao Ning because they were soulmates.
Hearing this, Xiao Ning's tears fell. She told Ji Yu Heng that she was willing to spend her life with him and enter the gates of marriage together.
