Episode 20 recap: Both Xia Guo from two different timelines have found happiness.
Xia Guo returned home feeling very sad, and Yan Yan happened to witness the scene. Xia Guo told Yan Yan what he had seen, but Yan Yan didn't believe that her brother would cheat. There must be a misunderstanding. Xia Guo knew that Yan Yan was Yu Jian's younger sister, so she wouldn't take his side, but Yan Yan couldn't say anything either.
That night, Yu Jian took the initiative to suggest a conversation with Xia Guo about their situation. He had already found a place and would take her there the next day. Xia Guo agreed, no matter what storms may come the next day, she would accept it. Xia Guo realized that Yu Jian brought her to the hotel where he and Wen Ya had been together.
She felt extremely nervous, not knowing what Yu Jian's intentions were. In Shanghai, Xia Guo's career was thriving. Her new store was opening, and she received a bouquet from Ai Lun, who was climbing Mount Everest. She didn't expect that General Xue would also come to congratulate her. General Xue told Xia Guo that he wanted to stay this time, not go anywhere. However, Xia Guo didn't want to discuss their relationship anymore. As the boss, she welcomed General Xue's congratulations.
Xia Guo received a request from a customer who wanted to propose to his girlfriend in her store. Xia Guo took the job and if it went well, her store might become a romantic landmark in the future. But General Xue came to the store again and sat there with his computer, waiting for lunchtime so he could eat there.
General Xue was very sad about the customer proposing in the store, so he specially bought a bottle of Lover's Red Wine, of which there were only two thousand bottles in the world. He also racked his brains to find a dessert that would pair well with the wine. Xia Guo felt strange about all this. Sure enough, Xia Guo discovered General Xue's secret. The customer who wanted to propose was him. No wonder he was so concerned about it. But Xia Guo didn't accept this kind of romance. It was just General Xue's self-indulgence. Since she had been with General Xue, she had always been accommodating and cooperative with him. But now she didn't want to be like that anymore. She wanted to live for herself. However, could she really let go of General Xue? Definitely not.
General Xue handed over the ring he had bought years ago to Xia Guo and told her that his desire to marry her had never changed. He anticipated that Xia Guo would reject his proposal, but it didn't matter. Xia Guo returned home and opened the ring box, finding a receipt inside. Upon seeing the date, she realized that General Xue had purchased it the night before he left. For so long, he didn't explain, and she didn't inquire, and the two of them remained in this stalemate.
That night, General Xue came to find Xia Guo. He didn't want to give up; he simply wanted to seek her forgiveness. Xia Guo opened the door, and General Xue stood at the entrance. Their eyes met. Meanwhile, in Leshan, Xia Guo was experiencing a surprise. It turned out that Yu Jian and the busy people around him were preparing for their wedding. Yan Yan and the others knew about it and helped Yu Jian keep it a secret, all for the purpose of giving Xia Guo a surprise today.
Yu Jian had great faith and even invited Xia Guo's stepfather to attend their wedding. It was something Yu Jian had promised Xia Guo years ago, and now he was fulfilling that promise. Yu Jian was deeply grateful for Xia Guo's sacrifice, firmly believing that he and Xia Guo would be happy together forever.
Now Xia Guo finally understood that Old Tang had long been with Wen Ya, and it was her misunderstanding of Yu Jian. In the end, the Xia Guos from both timelines had a conversation, realizing that there was no such thing as a good or better choice. Everything should be guided by one's own heart.
