Ode to Joy Season 5 episode 5 recap

Episode 5 recap: He Min Hong had a heated argument with everyone.

Although He Min Hong appeared pitiful, Ye Zhen Zhen had already grown cold towards her and would rather go back to her room to get a blanket and chair and show some kindness, than open the door to let her in. In order to deal with this situation, He Min Hong devised a new plan. She made He Mama leave first and stayed alone on the 22nd floor. As long as the other party couldn't find a reasonable place to argue, they would be forced to accommodate her.

Zhu Zhe and Yu Chu Hui knew that He Min Hong hadn't left yet, so they decided to sit in the community and chat, sharing their work experiences. They sat in the community and chatted, sharing their work experiences with each other. Soon, Fang Zhi Heng came back from work, and with He Min Hong's presence as the enforcer, they didn't have to worry about her suddenly going crazy.

Originally, He Min Hong planned to stay in the corridor and wage a protracted battle, but she was afraid of Fang Zhi Heng and didn't dare to cause trouble. He Min Hong stubbornly refused to leave, so Zhu Zhe informed Ye Zhen Zhen not to come back temporarily. Helpless, Yu Chu Hui threatened He Mama that if she didn't take her daughter away, Qi Mu would be called. Sure enough, He Mama hurriedly arrived on the 22nd floor.

However, He Min Hong saw that they were not yielding to her demands, so she threw a tantrum on the spot and tore her face with them. She insisted on following the contract and claimed that as long as the lease agreement was still in her hands, she could continue to stay. Zhu Zhe and Yu Chu Hui were momentarily stunned, but Fang Zhi Heng promptly stepped forward to refute He Min Hong, stating that she had already received the rent refund and even had WeChat transfers as evidence, so her behavior amounted to fraud.

He Min Hong defended herself, saying she had never intended to leave, and it was He Mama who had been demanding the lease termination, so it couldn't be considered a factual termination. Ye Zhen Zhen came out of the elevator and witnessed the argument. She approached He Min Hong and questioned why she harbored such animosity towards her. He Min Hong vehemently accused everyone of conspiring against her.

It was only then that Ye Zhen Zhen understood the reason why He Min Hong wanted to return to room 2202. On one hand, she felt that 2202 was safe, but on the other hand, she criticized her roommates as being unkind. She found it difficult to comprehend He Min Hong's contradictory mindset. Yu Chu Hui couldn't bear it anymore and threatened to call Qi Mu. Seeing this, He Min Hong and He Mama quickly escaped.

Although Ye Zhen Zhen deeply disliked He Min Hong, she still worried about the safety of the mother and daughter. So she secretly went downstairs from the staircase and coincidentally encountered Dai Wei coming in from outside. Ye Zhen Zhen asked Dai Wei to go out and take a look, to confirm if the mother and daughter could leave safely.

Dai Wei tactfully expressed goodwill towards the mother and daughter and personally escorted them outside the community to catch a taxi.

Unexpectedly, He Min Hong pretended to leave in a car but stopped the driver less than a kilometer away and walked back with her luggage. Because He Min Hong had just seen Ye Zhen Zhen, she hated her even more and attributed all the conspiracy theories to Ye Zhen Zhen. Even He Mama couldn't stand it and felt that her daughter was beyond redemption.

Back in the shared room 2202, Ye Zhen Zhen distributed the bread and snacks she bought to everyone. Yu Chu Hui showcased her cooking skills and received praise from those present. In contrast, Fang Zhi Heng seemed burdened with worries, catching the attention of Ye Zhen Zhen and others.

After Ye Zhen Zhen left, Fang Zhi Heng sought Zhu Zhe's advice. At that moment, Aunt Yang called Fang Zhi Heng and informed her that recently, former colleagues and neighbors had come to express condolences, but Mr. Fang still locked himself in his room and showed no concern for his youngest daughter.

Zhu Zhe persuaded Fang Zhi Heng to have another conversation with her father, as he no longer had the privilege of being emotional and needed to provide an immediate response. Dai Wei mentioned the issue with Fang Zhi Heng's father to Ye Zhen Zhen, and she worried that this relationship might not last due to the influence of Dai Wei's parents.

Even though Dai Wei promised that his parents wouldn't interfere in their lives, Ye Zhen Zhen still didn't have enough confidence in the mother she hadn't met yet. Later, Fang Zhi Heng called her father, hoping that he would face his responsibilities and fulfill his duty as a father in raising his child.

She emphasized that her little sister was a child her mother sacrificed her life for, but unexpectedly, her father complained and hung up the phone, leaving her both angry and helpless. That evening, Dai Wei took Ye Zhen Zhen to visit his new place, which was not as luxurious as the previous mansion but provided him with a greater sense of peace.

When Dai Wei dropped Ye Zhen Zhen off at the entrance of the community, they coincidentally encountered Fang Zhi Heng, who was exercising outside. The two of them walked back together and saw He Min Hong dragging her luggage, causing them to feel uneasy.
