Recap Chinese Drama "Almost Lover (2022)" Episode 8

Xiao Shangqi sent He Xiaoran home, and met Sui Mingwei at the door, who came home, and learned that only Sui Mingwei and He Xiaoran lived in the house at present.

The three discussed how to persuade Li Hui to come back at night. Xiao Shangqi suggested that they should buy something and have Li Hui come back to sign for the courier. He also persuaded Sui Mingwei to act as soon as possible, otherwise women would easily draw a line with others, or even die of old age.

At night, Xiao Shangqi was sleeping on the sofa. When He Xiaoran came out to visit him, he saw that he had not fallen asleep, and the two simply chatted. He Xiaoran told Xiao Shangqi that roommates Li Hui and Sui Mingwei were young, and the two witnessed each other's rebellious adolescence, their first love, and their learning careers from childhood to adulthood. This relationship is hard to come by. He Xiaoran didn't want them to continue living together, so he hoped to stay and ease their relationship. Xiao Shangqi understood her feelings very well, but he also hoped that she could live with him as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, Li Hui came back to pick up the clothes and saw that Xiao Shangqi was also there, and asked if he could open a hotel room for Tang Yan at a discount at the Monsoon Hotel, and Xiao Shangqi agreed. Then Xiao Shangqi took He Xiaoran back to Monsoon for breakfast, and saw that the staff of Monsoon Hotel was preparing to hold a Children's Day event to wake up adults. He Xiaoran saw the decorations and props they had prepared, and borrowed some of them to take back and discuss the topic with the team members. . She borrowed childhood toys to awaken the childhood memories of Li Hui and Sui Mingwei, and wanted to ease the relationship between the two. Then Li Hui was about to go to the hotel because of Tang Yan's text message, and Sui Mingwei offered to send her off, and the relationship between the two was eased.

Because Xiao Shangqi has not experienced the childhood that ordinary children have, He Xiaoran was very curious about what his childhood was like. Xiao Shangqi brought He Xiaoran to the hotel and told her about the time he spent in the hotel as a child. The two spent the first Children's Day together, and Xiao Shangqi also said that he would spend every future festival with He Xiaoran.

Zhao Mingxuan learned that Xiao Shangqi was going to develop Yunlan’s personal brand in Wusu, and directly met with Xiao Xian, hoping that Xiao Shangqi would come back to help him prepare for the wedding. Zhao Mingxuan provoked the relationship between the brothers of the Xiao family, thinking that Father Xiao wanted to hand over Yun Lan to Xiao Shangqi to manage, but he promised that he would help Xiao Xian.

The Monsoon Hotel suddenly came to check, and saw expired cooking oil and some mouse droppings in the kitchen, so Monsoon was shut down for rectification. Because of this, He Xiaoran's program team also discussed it, thinking that if there is food safety in the monsoon, it should be reported, but before that, the truth of the matter should be found out. Because of this, the Monsoon Hotel was also removed from the black pine needles, and the hotel's customers frequently returned orders.

Xiao Xian called and hoped that Xiao Shangqi could start crisis public relations, at least to change the Internet's impression of this matter. But Xiao Shangqi was reluctant to do this, he wanted to investigate the truth of the matter. The "Everyone Helps Everyone" program team contacted Mr. A, who filmed the mouse-infested video of the Monsoon Hotel, and asked him about the violations related to the Monsoon Hotel.

Xiao Shangqi heard He Xiaoran's radio program and came to find her and hoped that she would not continue to investigate the matter. But He Xiaoran said that as a girlfriend, she believes that there is no problem with the Monsoon Hotel, but as a media worker, she hopes to maintain her independence and accuracy. Xiao Shangqi was very pleased with his girlfriend's remarks. He said that he would also investigate the truth so that all rumors and slanders would be self-defeating.

He Xiaoran accompanied Xiao Shangqi to the hotel to investigate and monitor, hoping to find Mr. A according to the place where Mr. A appeared on the radio call, but the two of them could not find any other clues except for a suspicious figure outside the laundry room. Vice President Lin told Xiao Shangqi that many people complained about the chef's problems with making sweet and sour pork ribs on Children's Day. Xiao Shangqi was inspired by He Xiaoran's comforting magic, and he found that the ingredients in the kitchen had been deliberately moved. Then the hotel employee Xiao Mo also accidentally discovered that the suspicious person in the surveillance was the former chef elder Hu.

Selecting the camera inspection date, putting Lao Hu in the back kitchen of the hotel, and deleting the access control records, these are things that only Vice President Lin can do. Xiao Shangqi called Vice President Lin, and also exposed his actions of reporting his every move to Zhao Mingxuan. It turned out that Xiao Shangqi had already investigated Vice President Lin, and he had worked under Zhao Mingxuan five years ago. Vice President Lin was helped by Zhao Mingxuan in the past, so this time he was willing to help and pay back his favor. Moreover, Zhao Mingxuan also promised to change the city for Vice President Lin's son Taiyang to receive good education conditions. Originally, Vice President Lin thought that Zhao Mingxuan asked him to put Lao Hu in the hotel in order to steal a teacher to learn cooking, but he did not expect it to frame the monsoon for the purpose of filming a video. Afterwards, he went to question Lao Hu, but Lao Hu said that this was Zhao Mingxuan's arrangement, and he also said that he would not be a drag on him.
