Episode 11 recap: Jiang Shi Yan Surprises Tang Yang for New Year's Eve
In Episode 11, Jiang Shi Yan immediately helps Tang Yang with her car insurance issues and even offers her a ride home. On the way, he notices that Tang Yang has hurt her knee and quickly retrieves a first aid kit from the car, carefully applying a bandage. This series of thoughtful actions leaves Tang Yang wondering if he has a "special concern" for her. After all, their usual bro-friends wouldn’t go to such lengths, especially not while taking risks to ensure her safety.
When they arrive at her doorstep, Jiang Shi Yan enthusiastically invites Tang Yang to dinner, but she declines, insisting that friends shouldn’t feel obligated to reciprocate favors. Although he feels puzzled by her response, Jiang Shi Yan respects her wishes and promises to meet all her requests while maintaining a proper distance.
Meanwhile, Sheng Ni Na faces malicious attacks from online trolls during her livestream. Just as her mood is affected, Cheng Hui steps in and uses his technical skills to clean up the chat room, allowing her to continue working without worry. After the livestream, Sheng Ni Na is surprised to discover that Cheng Hui not only has impressive tech skills but also drives a luxury car as a part-time chauffeur, which piques her curiosity.
Over the weekend, Feng Wei Ran organizes a cozy picnic, and the arrival of children livens up the atmosphere. Surrounded by kids, Jiang Shi Yan and Tang Yang feel as if they’ve returned to their carefree days as close friends, rekindling their familiarity and connection. As the sun sets, Jiang Shi Yan gazes at Tang Yang’s happy smile, filled with hopes for a beautiful future together.
However, that night, a dream jolts Jiang Shi Yan back to reality. He dreams that Tang Yang has chosen someone else and has children, leaving him to watch their happiness from afar. Waking up, he feels a mix of emotions and hopes it was just a dream that will never come true.
At the same time, Sheng Ni Na's livestream career is thriving, with her fan count surpassing ten million. At a celebration party, a photo of her with Jiang Shi Yan is misinterpreted as evidence of them being a perfect match. Seeing this, Tang Yang feels an inexplicable sense of loss and makes an excuse to cancel her New Year's dinner with Jiang Shi Yan. Noticing her emotional shift, Jiang Shi Yan decides to find her and eventually discovers Tang Yang alone in a quiet alley, where they finally clear up their misunderstandings.
On that New Year's Eve, Jiang Shi Yan proves that friendship and care can be pure, while Tang Yang realizes that true feelings don’t need extravagant gestures, just quiet support when it’s needed. In that moment, their misunderstandings and barriers dissolve, leaving only an infinite expectation for the future and a stronger trust and support between them.
