she becomes anxious and
unable to concentrate on
her work.
Zhongxing complains
about the lack of manpower.
Chen Feng helps out.
Shuqi tells Chen Feng
she intends to quit and join
Xu Tao in China. Yalong is
distressed by the news.
Unable to suppress his
feelings, he expresses
his love for Shuqi. She is
stunned, and explains that
to her, he is just a friend.
Xu Tao comes back
unexpectedly. He has
fallen out with his parents.
Returning for good, he
claims he has an opportunity
to star in a Singapore-China
movie collaboration.

Yalong’s confession of love.

Yalong falls ill. Chen Feng
is touched when Xiaoqiao
and Lianhua show their
concern for him. Shuqi is
guilt-stricken, and Xiaoqiao
advises her to have a talk
with him.
The stock market
plunges. Dazhi’s broker
wants him to sell his shares
to stave off further losses.
However, Dazhi insists the
situation is just a technical
glitch and prices will right
themselves. He buys even
more shares.
Yalong applies for long
leave to rest at home. In
truth, he is avoiding Shuqi.
Dazhi pretends to be
concerned.
Chen Feng finds an
excuse to treat Xiaoqiao and
her family to an expensive
lunch. She chides Dazhi and
his wife for letting Lianhua
sleep in the living room and
suggests the old lady move
in with her.
When Xiaoqiao refuses
and argues, Chen Feng
blurts out that she has the
right to interfere as she is
Lianhua’s daughter.

factory to look for Qiyuan
unexpectedly. Qiyuan
fears she might bump into
Zhengye.
Wenjie complains Ziyang
has been neglecting
her because of his work
commitments. He arranges
to see her over the weekend.
Little does he expect to
receive an urgent call, and
he becomes so engrossed
in his work that he forgets
their date.
Chen Feng learns Dazhi
has long known she can’t
be Lianhua’s daughter but
feigned ignorance. She
confronts him.

Disillusioned, Chen Feng
consoles herself with the
thought that it’s good enough
