After meeting Lin’s parents, Yicheng is dumbfounded when he finds out that the fruits he bought are actually from Lin’s parent’s farm. Lin Xi shows him around. Even though Lin Xi’s mother likes Yicheng, her father is not easy to sway. Mr. Lin tells his wife that he needs to test Yicheng first to see if he is fit to marry his daughter. He criticizes everything Yicheng does, from his small appetite to his inability to drink. He tells Yicheng that he’ll only consider marrying Lin Xi to him if he can make a handmade sofa. Yicheng accepts his challenge.
Meanwhile, Tong Xin (Yu Shasha) knocks on Yao Cheng (Qiming Fei)’s door. She asks him to look after Peter for a while as she needs to go and get Yicheng’s signature on some important documents. Yao Cheng offers to drive her there instead, as it is not safe to drive on the hilly roads at night.
Xin and Cheng arrive at their destination and see Lin and Yicheng taking a stroll. Yao Cheng gives her the news that Chen Wen has resigned. Lin pretends to shrug it off, but she clearly cares.
The next morning, Lin’s friends meet her parents at the breakfast table. Peter plays around the field. Tong Xin gets emotional seeing Peter so happy. On the other hand, Yicheng gets ready to go out and collect bamboo. He is determined to win over Mr. Lin.
