Episode 37 recap: Pei Zhi Jie's blind date was a success.
Zhen Zhen handed Pei Zhi Jie a glass of water and advised him not to be so nervous about going on a blind date. When he saw Jia Qing's appearance and gentle demeanor, and listened to her soft-spoken self-introduction, he was deeply attracted to her. He appeared a little reserved and shy. Zhen Zhen watched Pei Zhi Jie's nervousness and couldn't help but laugh.
Pei Zhi Jie was very nervous and felt the heat around him. When he picked up the fan and started fanning himself, Jia Qing noticed the poem written on the fan and started discussing it with him. Pei Zhi Jie was deeply captivated by Jia Qing's words and felt that they shared similar interests and got along well.
Jia Qing guessed that Pei Zhi Jie's name might come from the poem "Jucan Zhi Jie Guo, He Jin Jue Chi Shen" by the Song Dynasty poet Su Shi, but Pei Zhi Jie said it wasn't and instead cited a line from Lu You's poem "Niao Ming Zhi Jie Hui." Pei Zhi Jie then said that Jia Qing's guess was also good and that he could use that line as an answer when others asked about it in the future.
Xu Xiaoqian told everyone a joke, but it was not very interesting when she told it. Everyone was worried about Pei Zhi Jie not returning from his blind date yet, fearing that he might be emotionally disturbed by the situation. They went to the place where Pei Zhi Jie had the blind date and were surprised to see him having such an engaging conversation with a girl.
Pei Zhi Jie was very satisfied with Jia Qing. When his junior brother pulled him to leave, he turned his head back twice. When he returned home, he was still in a cheerful mood, feeling that this blind date was very much to his liking and contemplating the future. Xu Xiaoqian noticed that Pei Zhi Jie suddenly changed his style of dressing, and she found it a bit difficult to adapt. Pei Zhi Jie felt that it was time for him to change his style.
Pei Zhi Jie went to Wan Xia Flower Shop fully armed and bought a bouquet of flowers, intending to give them to someone. Wan Xia recognized Pei Zhi Jie but didn't expose him.
Pei Zhi Jie watched as Lu Zhifei kept trying to involve him in some matters, but he wanted to quickly finish everything and go find Jia Qing.
Everyone noticed that Pei Zhi Jie was acting a bit strange, prioritizing love over his professional responsibilities, and they wanted him to come to his senses. When Xu Xiaoqian asked for Pei Zhi Jie's opinion, he was already daydreaming about his life in old age, completely disregarding the affairs in the garden.
While Pei Zhi Jie was chatting with Jia Qing, he was frequently interrupted by his junior brothers, and he almost lost his temper. Everyone felt that something was off with Shige (Pei Zhi Jie), so they pretended to have a collective argument, testing whether Shige would come out and mediate as he used to. Pei Zhi Jie stood on the side, brushing the walnuts in his hand, with a smiling and slightly absent-minded expression, as if lost in his thoughts. Everyone found this scene a bit strange.
Pei Zhi Jie realized it was time to speak up and sternly asked everyone to go up on stage and perform. Everyone was stunned; they thought Pei Zhi Jie had changed, but little did they know that he was still not acting normally. Xu Xiaoqian informed Jia Qing about Pei Zhi Jie's situation, and when Pei Zhi Jie returned home, he was very happy and urged his junior brothers to practice diligently.
Everyone thought that Shige had finally come to his senses, but they were surprised when they found out that he actually brought Jia Qing back. It turned out that his previous behavior was just an act he put on to impress his girlfriend. Although they lost the old way of interacting with Shige, they were still happy that he had a successful blind date and found a sister-in-law for them. As Pei Zhi Jie led Jia Qing upstairs, Xu Xiaoqian and the others couldn't contain their joy, feeling happy for Pei Zhi Jie for being taken off the singles list.
