Episode 30 recap: Zhang Ze Zhong's Fake Marriage
In Episode 30, Zhang You Ting finally gathers the courage to confess his feelings to Du Li. The two share a silent understanding and embrace tightly. Hand in hand, they stroll through the alley until they reach home, reluctant to part ways. After some insistence, Zhang You Ting agrees to go home first at Du Li's suggestion. Du Li sweetly promises to bring him lunch the next day, their affection evident.
Meanwhile, Zhang You Ting's brother, Zhang Ze Zhong, stands at the door, burdened with thoughts. He hesitates on how to break the news of his upcoming marriage to his brother, especially since the bride is only slightly older than Zhang You Ting, which makes him feel awkward.
Just as he is struggling with his thoughts, Zhang You Ting returns, prompting Zhang Ze Zhong to quickly hide his feelings and urge him inside.
At the same time, a man on a bicycle wakes up to find his precious silver necklace missing. He anxiously asks Wang Xiao Qing and Du Man Tang about it, ultimately discovering the necklace with Du Man Tang. It turns out to be a misunderstanding, leading the two to sit down for coffee and share their concerns. The man opens the necklace to reveal a photo with Xiao Hui inside. He reminisces about their past, expressing regret for not being able to give her a grand wedding or fulfill their travel dreams together, which touches Du Man Tang and reminds him of his own regrets with Wang Xiao Qing.
Soon after, Du Man Tang's arrival disrupts the tranquility of the Zhang household. She brings Amanda with her to help the two get acquainted. Zhang Ze Zhong awkwardly notes that he hasn’t discussed this with Zhang You Ting yet, but Amanda's identity is unexpectedly revealed. Although surprised, Zhang You Ting responds maturely, supporting his brother’s choice and wishing for his happiness.
As preparations for Zhang Ze Zhong and Amanda’s wedding ramp up, Amanda has many specific requests for her wedding dress. Despite feeling overwhelmed, Zhang Ze Zhong does his best to accommodate her wishes. During a fitting, his thoughts drift elsewhere as he secretly arranges a surprise for Wang Xiao Qing and Du Li—a bill for their wedding photos, encouraging them to pursue their unfulfilled dreams.
On the other side, Du Li and Zhang You Ting are quietly planning their own wedding dress experience. They create a little game that gets Wang Xiao Qing and Du Man Tang to try on wedding dresses without realizing it, as if rehearsing for a wedding. Du Man Tang seizes the opportunity to express his deep feelings for Wang Xiao Qing again, and their happiness is palpable.
However, Zhang Ze Zhong and Amanda's journey to registration is not without its bumps, as both face some unease about their impending future. Yet, through Du Li and Zhang You Ting's small "scheme," the warmth and love between the Wang and Du families seem to quietly flourish, adding a touch of warmth and strength to their relationships.
