Love is Panacea Recap

Episode 1 Recap

On the 478th day of Gu Yunzheng's distant mission to Raqqa for medical assistance, he suddenly received a call to go to Linshi to guide a major surgery for a patient with heart failure and a massive brain tumor. He immediately returned to Raqqa and prepared to perform the surgery himself. Their mission here was twofold: to save more lives in challenging local medical conditions and to teach the local doctors so that they could continue providing the best treatment to patients after their departure.

Since the patient had fallen from a great height and was in critical condition, and due to limited medical facilities, they could only perform basic wound dressing for now. Further treatment had to wait until Gu Yunzheng returned. Gu Yunzheng arranged for them to prepare for the surgery, with the surgery set to begin within the next hour.

At the airport, Su Weian was promoting her purchased Maotai liquor to tourists when she was accused of selling fake alcohol. At a crucial moment, their tour guide stepped in to help, working in harmony with Su Weian to persuade the tourists to buy the liquor. When Gu Yunzheng took a long time to get a taxi, it caught Su Weian's attention, and she realized he was a wealthy individual, so she wanted to make a profit.

Su Weian promised to get Gu Yunzheng to the hospital within fifty minutes and revealed her "ride," which turned out to be a motorcycle, much to Gu Yunzheng's amusement. However, when Gu Yunzheng removed his sunglasses, Su Weian was astonished to find that he was a teacher who had taught her in college and someone she had admired. She became flustered and couldn't refund the money in time.

On their way to the hospital, they encountered heavy traffic, so Su Weian had to take a shortcut with Gu Yunzheng on the motorcycle. Upon arriving at the hospital, Gu Yunzheng immediately focused on the surgery, and in the process, left some of his belongings in the motorcycle. Su Weian did not leave right away but waited outside. She received a call from her best friend Jiang Muying.

Su Weian had been a top student at Hua Ren Medical University and was supposed to go to Paris for further studies, but she suddenly left the medical field and went to Raqqa to do small business, keeping it a secret from her family. Jiang Muying had become suspicious of Su Weian and flew to Raqqa alone to find her, asking her to come pick her up in her car.

While they were talking, they heard a loud crash in the distance, and when Su Weian looked, she saw a car accident, which brought back memories of her father, Su Jianguo's, death. Due to the critical situation, Su Weian didn't have time to explain but quickly adjusted her emotions and began to rescue the injured. She had to perform a craniotomy using an electric drill, which appeared quite terrifying to onlookers. Some people even thought she was committing a murder, and in the panic, they called the police.

After confirming that the patient had been taken to the hospital, Su Weian finally felt relieved. However, she turned around and found that her motorcycle had disappeared. While Su Weian was searching for her motorcycle, she was mistakenly arrested by the police as a murderer. In her desperation, she had to pay the officers to let her make a phone call and contact Jiang Muying to bring reinforcements.

Gu Yunzheng carefully observed the patient they had received and developed a great interest in the person who had performed the craniotomy on the patient without doing a CT scan first. It was clear that this person had the potential to become a skilled surgeon. Jiang Muying received the news and hurried to the hospital, where she found Gu Yunzheng through Fang Mingfan.

Initially, Gu Yunzheng wasn't interested in the matter of bail, but when he heard that the person they were trying to save needed immediate help, he couldn't help but be curious. He agreed to go to the police station with Jiang Muying to provide testimony. Inside the police station, when they looked at each other, they were both surprised. Gu Yunzheng realized that Su Weian's name sounded very familiar, and upon closer recollection, he remembered that she used to be his student and had postponed her exams to save someone.

Gu Yunzheng had believed that Su Weian would become an excellent doctor, and he was surprised that she had dropped out. He asked Su Weian why she did that, and she lied, saying she just wanted to make money and that studying medicine was too difficult and financially challenging. This response left Gu Yunzheng quite displeased. Since Su Weian didn't have enough money to pay the fine, she had to ask Gu Yunzheng to pay it on her behalf. Before leaving, Gu Yunzheng warned her that his students don't desert their studies midway and that if he caught her performing unauthorized medical procedures again, he would cooperate with the police to bring her to justice.

Despite Su Weian's external explanation that she dropped out to make money, her best friend Jiang Muying believed that her decision was related to something that had happened in the past. Su Weian intended to deliver the liquor to the General's Mansion, but her day had been full of misfortune, as she had to compensate for the damaged car and lost liquor. Her home had also been searched by the people from the General's Mansion. Jiang Muying suggested that Su Weian could work as a French translator based on a job opening they had seen at the hospital. This would not only provide her with employment but also help her avoid the General's Mansion's pursuit.

Episode 2 Recap

To avoid the General's Mansion's pursuit, Jiang Muying and Su Weian applied for positions as French translators at Friendly Hospital. However, Gu Yunzheng, disliking deserters, refused her application decisively. A foreign doctor came to Gu Yunzheng with a patient report, and before Fang Mingfan could pull out the translator, Su Weian accurately translated the content.

This impressed Gu Yunzheng, and he agreed to give her a one-month trial period. Su Weian also wanted Jiang Muying to apply as a French translator and promised to teach her to become a qualified translator. After some negotiation between Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng, they both moved into the hospital dormitory.

The next morning, Su Weian brought Jiang Muying back to their previous residence and found people from the General's Mansion waiting outside. The landlord's son, Sakun, was someone Su Weian cared deeply for, as his father had died of AIDS, and he was also infected with the disease, with an irresponsible mother. For this reason, Sakun often regarded Su Weian as a mother figure. Su Weian was concerned about Sakun's condition and learned that he had deteriorated recently, but his mother hadn't considered taking him to the hospital.

While Su Weian was on her way back and focused on searching for her belongings, she didn't notice that her Hua Ren Medical University student ID card had fallen on the ground. Gu Yunzheng picked it up and was curious about why she still kept this card. When Jiang Muying helped Su Weian pack her things, she unexpectedly discovered that Su Weian had purchased accidental insurance with her mother as the beneficiary. Su Weian quickly hid the insurance policy, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted. She tried to persuade Jiang Muying to return to their home country earlier, but Jiang Muying didn't agree and felt that Su Weian had changed.

That evening, Su Weian secretly sneaked into the pharmacy to steal prescription medication, only to be caught red-handed by Gu Yunzheng. To prevent herself from being exposed, Su Weian quickly grabbed Gu Yunzheng and covered his mouth until the administrator left. The two of them were locked in the pharmacy due to the administrator's actions, and their phones had no signal due to the heavy rain. In the process of their struggle, Gu Yunzheng's bracelet was accidentally damaged.

To make amends for her guilt, Su Weian took the initiative to help Gu Yunzheng reassemble his bracelet, arranging the beads with letters to spell "Dark Night Rainbow." The meaning behind these words was known only to Gu Yunzheng himself, and it reminded him of a conflict he had with his half-brother in the past. Initially, Su Weian thought the bracelet was a gift from Gu Yunzheng's girlfriend, but when she heard his denial, she couldn't hide her small delight.

Because of the administrator, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian had to spend the night together. The next morning, Su Weian woke up and found herself leaning on Gu Yunzheng's shoulder, which startled her. She quickly sat up and cautiously examined Gu Yunzheng's profile. Gu Yunzheng asked Su Weian why she wanted to steal medication, and Su Weian explained that she was doing it to help a friend. In this world, not everyone could afford medical treatment.

Although Gu Yunzheng understood that Su Weian was desperate to help someone, as a doctor, he couldn't show favoritism. He demanded that Su Weian must provide the prescription medication and bring the child to the hospital within twenty-four hours, no matter how difficult the situation. Sakun suddenly vomited, exacerbating his condition, so Su Weian forcibly took him to the hospital. She gave all the money she had to Sakun's mother, unaware that she would reveal Su Weian's whereabouts to the General's Mansion.

Gu Yunzheng personally performed surgery on Sakun, with Su Weian acting as the translator. Ultimately, Sakun's condition improved. Members of the General's Mansion barged in to take Su Weian, but Gu Yunzheng, with a surgical knife at the leader's throat, reprimanded them, warning them not to take any Chinese people from Friendly Hospital. They had no choice but to leave.

Considering that Sakun's mother had no money and no sense of responsibility, Su Weian was willing to bear all the expenses. Jiang Muying privately asked Fang Mingfan about Gu Yunzheng's situation, and Fang Mingfan thought that Jiang Muying liked Gu Yunzheng, feeling somewhat uncomfortable about it. However, Jiang Muying's true intention was to match Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng, so that when Gu Yunzheng's mission was over, he could return to their home country with Su Weian.

Episode 3 Recap

Gu Yunzheng noticed that Sakun seemed to be in a bad mood and made a balloon glove to cheer him up. To his surprise, Sakun called Gu Yunzheng "Dad," which left him astonished. Su Weian came over to explain that Sakun, having lacked parental care since childhood, would call people who treated him kindly as "Dad" or "Mom." However, Sakun was resistant to undergoing a medical examination, disliking injections and medication.

Facing this situation, Gu Yunzheng promised Sakun that if he cooperated with the treatment and recovered, he would take him out to play. It was Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian's comforting words that persuaded Sakun to cooperate and be obedient. To fulfill his promise, Gu Yunzheng took an unprecedented day off, taking Su Weian and Sakun out for a day of fun, appearing as a happy family to everyone.

As they were enjoying their time, a motorcycle came speeding toward them, and Su Weian was almost hit while protecting Sakun. Fortunately, Gu Yunzheng shielded her from harm in time. This incident left Su Weian with a racing heart, and she recalled the heartwarming memory of Gu Yunzheng appearing as a witness when she missed her exam due to saving someone. It was from this moment that Su Weian silently started liking Gu Yunzheng and buried her feelings deep in her heart.

On the way back, Sakun accidentally fell and injured his arm, causing profuse bleeding. Su Weian, aware of Sakun's poor blood clotting function, knew that it required immediate stitching. Unfortunately, the hospital experienced a sudden power outage. Su Weian held a flashlight to assist Gu Yunzheng in performing the stitching surgery. Due to low blood sugar, Su Weian nearly fainted, and Gu Yunzheng hurriedly supported her. The close proximity between them created a somewhat ambiguous atmosphere.

That night, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian had a late-night meal in the dormitory. Su Weian watched as Gu Yunzheng not only cooked noodles but also added two poached eggs to them. She was moved by his thoughtfulness, which reminded her of her own father. Gu Yunzheng assumed that Su Weian dropped out of school because of her father, but she denied it and emphasized that she wanted to make money.

However, Gu Yunzheng completely doubted her explanation since she was someone willing to be mistaken for a murderer to save patients and pay for the treatment of a non-blood-related child with AIDS. Su Weian did not offer any further explanation. During this time, Jiang Muying and Fang Mingfan entered, making her hide under the table to prevent any misunderstandings.

Fang Mingfan sensed Gu Yunzheng's nervousness and, after a few attempts, confirmed that Su Weian was hiding under the table, though he decided not to reveal it. Gu Yunzheng quickly found an excuse to get the two of them to leave. However, when Su Weian left, she accidentally left behind her notebook. When Gu Yunzheng saw its contents, he discovered that Su Weian was a very meticulous person who kept track of every expense.

On that night, Gu Yunzheng had trouble sleeping and couldn't get Su Weian out of his mind. He was also becoming more and more puzzled by her. On the other hand, Jiang Muying analyzed Gu Yunzheng for Su Weian, but Su Weian didn't seem to understand the romantic fantasy that Jiang Muying was trying to create.

Gu Yunzheng's half-brother, Du Yuncheng, didn't study medicine but instead managed a pharmaceutical company, focusing on how to profit from patients. After work, Du Yuncheng brought financial reports to his grandfather, but his grandfather showed no interest, only inquiring about Gu Yunzheng's situation overseas. Since his grandfather had always opposed letting Du Yuncheng's mother into the family mansion, he had developed a strong dislike for Du Yuncheng. Moreover, their father frequently complained that Du Yuncheng didn't study medicine and always talked about Gu Yunzheng, fueling his jealousy toward Gu Yunzheng. In reality, during his college days, Du Yuncheng had a crush on a girl, and that girl was Su Weian. However, he had carefully prepared to confess his feelings to her but was met with her rejection.

Episode 4 Recap

Previously, the patient that Su Weian had urgently saved, a driver named Paje, had fully recovered. However, he didn't seem grateful but was rather anxious to know the identity of his lifesaver. When Paje saw the substantial medical expenses he needed to cover, he became very emotional and caused a scene in the hospital. Gu Yunzheng, hearing about this, worried that something might happen to Su Weian. He explained that he had signed the examination fees himself, and the blood test report was handed over to the police, having nothing to do with others.

This further infuriated Paje, and he attempted to physically assault Gu Yunzheng on the spot, but Gu Yunzheng's quick reflexes saved him. Hospital security hurriedly took Paje away. Su Weian felt guilty for not expecting that she had saved a reckless drunk driver with such a terrible attitude. However, Gu Yunzheng took responsibility on her behalf, leaving Su Weian deeply touched. She had wanted to bandage his wound, but the nurses had already done it.

Fang Mingfan, aware of Jiang Muying's intentions to matchmake her best friend with Gu Yunzheng, deliberately presented a few French translator resumes to Gu Yunzheng for review. As expected, Gu Yunzheng found flaws in all of them, stating that he would rather have fewer but better translators, and the search for a new translator shouldn't be rushed. Observant people could clearly see that Gu Yunzheng's attitude towards Su Weian had changed, which surprised Fang Mingfan.

To make up for her matchmaking efforts, Jiang Muying falsely claimed that Gu Yunzheng had prepared an invigorating tea for Su Weian. She also lied that Su Weian had washed Gu Yunzheng's clothes, causing the collars to wrinkle, but her efforts resulted in an awkward situation when everyone saw through the deceptions.

Early in the morning, Su Weian had to go to the morning market to secure the Chinese agency for coffee beans. Originally, Jiang Muying was supposed to go with her, but she overslept. Gu Yunzheng, who had gone out for morning exercise, encountered Su Weian as she was leaving, and his curiosity got the better of him. They were later ambushed by Paje and his associates in the alley.

In a critical moment, Su Weian stepped forward to shield Gu Yunzheng and took a blow to the head, causing profuse bleeding. Gu Yunzheng promptly rushed Su Weian to the hospital, and fortunately, her injury was only a minor concussion. On the other hand, Du Yuncheng visited the hospital to discuss business cooperation. The doctors emphasized that medication was meant to treat patients and save lives, so they had to be serious and meticulous in their work.

Through this incident, Gu Yunzheng's perception of Su Weian changed once again. He remembered how he was constantly teased by his schoolmates as an orphan with no mother, suffering from bullying. Even his father, who seemed indifferent, told him that tears were the most useless thing in the world. Now, seeing Su Weian risking her life to protect him, Gu Yunzheng's feelings became extremely complex.

Jiang Muying hesitated whether to inform Aunt Lan about Su Weian's injury, editing and deleting a text message several times. Fang Mingfan brought Jiang Muying some fried pancakes and patiently comforted her, eventually lifting her spirits. On the other side, Gu Yunzheng remained by Su Weian's bedside, taking care of her until she woke up and questioned why she saved him. Su Weian stubbornly told him a fabricated story.

Thinking about the past few days spent with Su Weian, Gu Yunzheng couldn't help but smile. He privately asked the nurses about Su Weian and was surprised to learn that Su Weian liked him. That night, Su Weian smelled the fragrance of the trees and couldn't resist going downstairs to enjoy it. Seeing Su Weian, who was simply dressed with minimal makeup and no fancy accessories, Gu Yunzheng's heart skipped a beat, and he became somewhat infatuated.

The General's mansion was still searching for Su Weian. The General believed that his severe headache was due to drinking the fake alcohol provided by Su Weian, but medical examination reports proved that he had no health issues. Gu Yunzheng had the cafeteria auntie specially deliver the wontons he had made to Su Weian. He falsely claimed that her condition had not yet improved, so she needed to stay in the hospital for observation.

Episode 5 Recap

Early in the morning, the soldiers from the General's mansion appeared at the Friendly Hospital. Su Weian initially thought they had come for her but discovered they were looking for Gu Yunzheng. Worried about Gu Yunzheng's safety, Su Weian implored General Kuoyat not to harm him. However, General Kuoyat was there for an examination and insisted that he was unwell. He threatened Gu Yunzheng that he had to perform brain surgery on him to find the "enemies" in his body. Gu Yunzheng had no choice but to agree.

After General Kuoyat left, Su Weian anxiously reminded Gu Yunzheng that he shouldn't have agreed so quickly. After all, none of the medical instruments had detected any issues. If he performed the surgery and didn't find any ailments, it would be considered a major medical accident, which meant he could never become a doctor.

Suddenly, a Frenchman walked in, and he was none other than General Kuoyat's attending physician, Elliot. He accused Gu Yunzheng of planning a fake surgery for fame, leading to a heated confrontation between the two. Despite not understanding Gu Yunzheng's actions, Su Weian strongly defended him. But Elliot stated that Gu Yunzheng was determined to perform the surgery, and he would invite experts from the Lakaya Health Committee to supervise the entire process.

Jiang Muying watched Elliot leave with an infatuated expression, remarking on how handsome he was. However, when she heard about Gu Yunzheng's risky decision to perform surgery on General Kuoyat, she couldn't help but worry. Later, Fang Mingfan and Jiang Muying searched for literature to help Gu Yunzheng get out of this predicament. Although Jiang Muying couldn't understand the content of the documents, she still agreed to stay and help with their categorization.

Upon learning about the situation, Su Weian's father, Du Yongsong, immediately called Gu Yunzheng to question his decision to perform the surgery. He mentioned that he had already sent a letter to the Friendly Hospital requesting them to communicate with the patient and cancel the surgery. Gu Yunzheng, however, refused and warned Du Yongsong that he wasn't worthy of mentioning his mother. Du Yongsong argued that it was Gu Yunzheng who had given up on their mother.

During their university days, Su Weian had fallen in love with Gu Yunzheng at first sight, secretly vowing to become a person as outstanding as him. Now, unable to bear seeing such an excellent person destroyed, she decided to bring two boxes of Moutai liquor to the General's mansion to apologize, hoping that General Kuoyat would spare Gu Yunzheng and not insist on the surgery.

General Kuoyat poured a glass of wine, which Su Weian promptly downed. Eventually, she became extremely drunk, and her behavior became unruly, leading to her being expelled from the General's mansion. Elliot saw her condition and quickly called Gu Yunzheng, asking him to come and pick up Su Weian personally.

Gu Yunzheng accompanied Su Weian back to the dorm, taking care of her with a mixture of anger and helplessness, unknowingly beginning to develop feelings for her. The next morning, Jiang Muying woke up to find Fang Mingfan lying next to her desk and couldn't help but lament his ordinary looks. She then closed her eyes to pretend to be asleep. Fang Mingfan, noticing Jiang Muying's makeup, offered to help her clean it up but ended up receiving a barrage of complaints from her.

When Su Weian woke up, she was still worried about Gu Yunzheng, but he was already quite confident in his decision. He had observed General Kuoyat's words and actions and deduced that the issue was located in the brainstem. As expected, after a more detailed and comprehensive examination, it was confirmed that General Kuoyat had abnormal signals in his brainstem.

On the day of the surgery, Elliot brought members of the local Health Committee to the operating room for supervision. General Kuoyat's guards were also present. During the procedure, Elliot and others questioned Gu Yunzheng's medical skills, especially when they saw abnormalities in the blood pressure monitor. The guard became agitated and pointed a gun at Gu Yunzheng, ordering him to stop the surgery.

Without hesitation, Su Weian stepped in front of the gun and told them they couldn't disrupt Gu Yunzheng's surgery. Gu Yunzheng completed the surgery quickly and successfully. Because of this, Elliot apologized to Gu Yunzheng for his earlier actions, and Su Weian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Yunzheng reminded Su Weian not to act so impulsively in the future and not to risk her life.

Episode 6 Recap

Although the brain surgery was highly successful, the examination results for General Kuoyat showed that the malignancy of the tumor was very high. Even after removing all the affected tissues, it was challenging to control the recurrence rate of the malignant tumor. Therefore, he had no more than two years left. General Kuoyat received this grim news without sadness, as he had mentioned earlier that he was not afraid of death. He was only afraid of facing his enemies in the afterlife. Hence, he preferred to enjoy life to the fullest during the limited time he had, inviting everyone to the General's mansion for a New Year's party.

Su Weian and Jiang Muying dressed meticulously, stunning both Gu Yunzheng and Fang Mingfan. Unfortunately, Gu Yunzheng wasn't skilled at giving compliments. Elliot personally came to pick up Su Weian to go to the General's mansion, as Elliot's mentor was the French expert, Dr. Marta, who had been the first to research Huntington's disease twenty years ago. Su Weian agreed to become Elliot's dance partner to seize the opportunity to meet Dr. Marta.

However, when Gu Yunzheng saw the intimate interactions between Su Weian and Elliot, he couldn't help but feel jealous, which even surprised himself. Jiang Muying had believed she would meet her true love based on her zodiac sign, but instead, only Fang Mingfan appeared. She felt shocked and disappointed but found that Fang Mingfan was quite happy.

Approaching midnight at twelve o'clock, General Kuoyat attended the party, where he shared his medical condition with everyone. He hoped to have a joyful funeral while he was still alive, thanking Dr. Gu Yunzheng for helping him identify the enemy within his body, making it a regret-free experience. As he finished speaking, fireworks lit up the sky. According to local customs, people needed to kiss the person beside them to receive blessings. Gu Yunzheng saw Elliot approaching and passionately kissed Su Weian. To avoid Elliot's advances, Jiang Muying took the initiative and kissed Fang Mingfan.

The pharmaceutical company was facing financial difficulties, and Du Yuncheng attended various social gatherings to attract investors, which led to a stomachache due to excessive drinking. Wen Ran was deeply concerned about Du Yuncheng and wanted to take care of him at his home, but she received a polite rejection. In their university days, Su Weian, Wen Ran, and Du Yuncheng had been classmates. Later, rumors circulated that Su Weian had reported Wen Ran, her best friend, in a dispute, which ultimately led to her dropping out of school.

Du Yuncheng secretly investigated the reason behind Su Weian's departure and discovered that it was related to Huntington's disease. After graduating, he contacted Wen Ran's father on behalf of Jiehui Pharmaceuticals to discuss restarting the research on the new drug HDQ39 for Huntington's disease. He believed that if the research succeeded, Su Weian could return from France.

Without Su Weian as a translator, Gu Yunzheng realized that there was a barrier to communication between him and the patients. He understood her importance. Elliot came to the hospital to invite Su Weian for breakfast and coffee. He also proposed to take her to Paris, promising that she could become a member of Dr. Marta's Huntington's disease project team.

Later, Su Weian applied to resign from her position. At first, Gu Yunzheng misunderstood that her departure was due to the New Year's kiss. He hastily explained that he had done it to comply with local customs and asked her not to misunderstand. It was this explanation that solidified Su Weian's determination.

That night, Su Weian returned to her dorm to pack her belongings and lied about eloping with Elliot. However, Jiang Muying had already sensed that there was a hidden reason behind Su Weian's dropping out of school and was frustrated that Su Weian wouldn't be open with her. She left in anger. Gu Yunzheng wanted to console Su Weian, so he prepared breakfast for her, but he saw her praising herself to someone else, which secretly pleased him.

As Gu Yunzheng was about to hand the breakfast to Su Weian, she unexpectedly handed in her resignation letter, leaving him in emotional turmoil. He mistakenly believed Su Weian was leaving because of Elliot. Gu Yunzheng reminded Su Weian that, according to the contract, she needed to apply for resignation one week in advance and could only leave one week after applying. During this period, she was required to work as usual, and any absences would result in salary deductions.

Episode 7 Recap

Elliott admires and adores Su Weian and used Dr. Marta's Huntington's Dance Syndrome experiment as a topic to successfully get close to Su Weian. He even invited her to join the project in Paris. Gu Yunzheng regrets his "straight male speech" about the "New Year's kiss" and tries to make amends. He actively reaches out to Su Weian, but she insists on resigning, causing him to misunderstand that she is leaving the hospital because of Elliott.

Jiang Muying mobilizes everyone to try to keep Su Weian, even having Sakun pretend to worsen his condition. However, Su Weian sees through these tactics and remains determined to leave. She desperately avoids her feelings for Gu Yunzheng and insists on going to Paris. This breaks Gu Yunzheng's heart, and he can only respond calmly to her choice, refraining from making any more attempts to stop her.

Because of Su Weian's persistence and determination, Gu Yunzheng is reminded of his mother. This is the second time he has been abandoned after investing emotionally and hoping for a relationship. He feels very distressed about it. His grandfather calls to check on Gu Yunzheng and, hearing his woes, guesses that he must be in a relationship in Lacaya and is troubled by it.

Later, Gu Yunzheng assigns a pile of translation tasks to Su Weian, demanding that she completes them before leaving. Su Weian accepts the challenge and works through the night for several nights to finish them. Jiang Muying and Fang Mingfan intentionally create a private space for the two of them, turn off the power, and lock the door. Gu Yunzheng gathers his courage to confess his feelings to Su Weian. However, she firmly rejects him and claims to have feelings for Elliott.

This matchmaking attempt fails, and Jiang Muying is upset due to Su Weian's concealment of the truth. She stays in the dormitory, ignoring Su Weian. The next day, after completing a surgery on a patient, Gu Yunzheng learns that Su Weian's flight is scheduled for the afternoon. He hesitates for a long time before deciding whether to go see her. It's only when Jiang Muying hands him a voice recorder that he makes up his mind.

It turns out that before leaving, Su Weian left an intelligent voice recorder for Gu Yunzheng, filled with medical terms in French. This shows her thoughtfulness. Jiang Muying reveals to Gu Yunzheng that during her college years, Su Weian often wrote Gu Yunzheng's name all over her textbooks and aspired to be like him. Gu Yunzheng is surprised to hear this and decides to ride the motorcycle Su Weian lost to the airport to catch up with her.

On the way to the airport, Elliott shows a troubled expression and tries to convince Su Weian to join another research team. However, when Elliott learns that Su Weian carries the Huntington's Dance Syndrome disease-causing gene, he can't bring himself to deceive her anymore and confesses that Dr. Marta's experiment was a failure. Su Weian suddenly realizes that she had false hope and is overcome by despair.

When Gu Yunzheng hurriedly arrives at the airport, he finds Su Weian alone in a corner, looking lost and dejected. Back at the hospital, Gu Yunzheng tells Su Weian that if she really wants to go to France, there will be plenty of opportunities, and she can still make money here. He offers to help her with anything she wants to do.

At this moment, two suspicious men leave the hospital with a baby, and the baby's mother cries out, accusing them of being human traffickers. Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian chase after them on the motorcycle and are threatened and surrounded. Su Weian tries to offer money to buy the baby, but it's not nearly enough. The situation escalates as one of the men threatens Gu Yunzheng with a knife. Su Weian instinctively shields him and gets stabbed in the abdomen, bleeding profusely. As she loses consciousness, she mutters about her bag being in the car and how she can finally use it in a life-threatening situation.

Fortunately, they reach the hospital in time, and after a surgery by Dr. Xu, Su Weian makes it through the critical period. Gu Yunzheng anxiously waits outside the operating room. Suddenly, he remembers what Su Weian said and checks her bag, finding a stack of unexpected insurance policies. He has a faint suspicion that Su Weian might have a health issue. To confirm this suspicion, Gu Yunzheng decides to have a full-body examination for Su Weian.

Episode 8 Recap

Gu Yunzheng inquired about Su Weian's condition with Jiang Muying. However, in Jiang Muying's memory, Su Weian had always been healthy during her annual check-ups, and there was no family history of hereditary diseases. Despite this, Gu Yunzheng still found Su Weian's situation very peculiar and worried that she might be concealing an illness from others, leading to thoughts of self-destruction.

The next morning, when Su Weian woke up, her emotions were complex. She felt the joy of rebirth, but it was fleeting, followed by disappointment. When Dr. Xu came to check on her in the ward, he mentioned Gu Yunzheng's concern for Su Weian, which made her feel warm. However, Fang Mingfan noticed that both Gu Yunzheng and Jiang Muying had a subdued reaction to Su Weian's awakening, almost cold, which left him puzzled.

Not long after, Jiang Muying entrusted Fang Mingfan to give Su Weian her personal belongings. Even Gu Yunzheng secretly cared about her throughout, trying not to show it openly. Su Weian, upon knowing this, had Fang Mingfan run errands for her. In the middle of the night, Fang Mingfan sneaked into the female dormitory to turn off the fan for Jiang Muying, and during the day, he brewed the special coffee that Su Weian had left for Gu Yunzheng.

In the subsequent examination report, all indicators were extremely normal. Gu Yunzheng went to the ward to feed Su Weian medicine, pretending it was poison to fulfill her desire to die. Initially, Su Weian didn't believe him, but Gu Yunzheng's words were so convincing that she started to panic. To obtain the antidote, she had to admit that she still wanted to live.

Regarding this matter, Gu Yunzheng warned Su Weian that she should never entertain thoughts of self-destruction, no matter what happens in the future. He hoped she would take care of herself from now on and never devalue her own life. Jiang Muying stood quietly outside the room, listening to their conversation. She still had unresolved anger and, after entering the ward, talked to Su Weian about their student days. But she felt that Su Weian was growing more distant from her and decided to buy a plane ticket back to their home country in a while, without listening to Su Weian's explanations, before walking away.

Since Su Weian had been lying down for a long time, she wanted to get up and move around. Gu Yunzheng pushed her in a wheelchair to the ground floor to see the moonlight. Gu Yunzheng mentioned that he had met many cancer patients in the past. These people, even knowing that their lives were near the end, still remained optimistic and never thought of giving up their remaining short lives. Gu Yunzheng wanted to use this story to inspire Su Weian. They couldn't predict the future, but they should cherish the present's beauty and joy.

While they were talking, the baby's mother, Isabella, came to thank Su Weian and expressed her wish to take the baby to see the "Night Rainbow." After returning to the ward, Su Weian relayed Isabella's words. There was a local custom where mothers took their children to the "Night Rainbow" to pray for good luck, and the nearest place to see it was the village of Labai.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunzheng seemed to be lost in thought and absentmindedly touched the beads on his bracelet. Su Weian noticed this small detail and was willing to go with him to Labai village to witness the "Night Rainbow" together. With Su Weian's renewed will to live, Gu Yunzheng and she made a promise to welcome the "Night Rainbow" together on that day.

Jiang Muying was still holding a grudge against Su Weian, and even when they ate together at the same table, they would find fault with each other. Su Weian realized that she shouldn't keep too many secrets and could understand Jiang Muying's feelings. She sincerely apologized to Jiang Muying, and gradually, Jiang Muying softened her stance and agreed to sit down peacefully for a hotpot meal.

Later, Su Weian gave Gu Yunzheng a small and exquisite banner that was specially made to express her gratitude. With Gu Yunzheng's company, Su Weian went out shopping for a new phone and intended to have Gu Yunzheng foot the bill, but Gu Yunzheng took her to a very cheap phone store unexpectedly.

Episode 9 Recap

Gu Yunzheng accompanied Su Weian to buy a phone, and the store clerk mistakenly thought they were a couple. However, he promptly nodded to acknowledge this relationship. After leaving the phone store, Gu Yunzheng set his number as Su Weian's emergency contact, with a special note "handsome guy," breaking away from his usual serious demeanor, which left Su Weian feeling both surprised and amused.

On their way back, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian encountered human traffickers who had been severely beaten. Out of his responsibility as a doctor, Gu Yunzheng chose to provide medical treatment. He asked Su Weian to wait for him and then pushed the injured person in a wheelchair to the friendly hospital. He also had Fang Mingfan call the police while Su Weian promptly contacted Dr. Xu for surgery arrangements.

Later, Gu Yunzheng hurriedly returned to find Su Weian, only to discover that she was enjoying street drumming with others, creating a joyful and heartwarming atmosphere. He couldn't resist capturing a video on his phone. Since Gu Yunzheng had forgotten to bring the wheelchair, he carried Su Weian back. During this time, they communicated in French and Chinese, and Su Weian was surprised to learn that Gu Yunzheng even knew the word "boyfriend."

When Dr. Xu checked the ward and saw that Su Weian was in good condition, he sent her translation materials. Su Weian received an unexpected video invitation from Wen Ran, an old friend with a complicated relationship. Wen Ran intentionally showed affection with Du Yuncheng on camera. Du Yuncheng observed the French words behind Su Weian and seemed genuinely concerned as she was in La Carrière. However, Su Weian didn't want to hear Wen Ran's ambiguous words and decided to end the video call.

The friendly hospital organized doctors to provide free medical services in Labai village. Jiang Muying informed Su Weian about this, and considering that Jiang Muying might struggle with the entire translation task, Su Weian decided to accompany her. Early in the morning, Su Weian prepared breakfast for everyone and suggested that Gu Yunzheng should reimburse the cost, causing him to struggle to hide his amusement.

Jiang Muying couldn't stand the environment in Labai village and accidentally sprained her ankle. A young girl walked a long distance barefoot to the medical camp, hoping that Gu Yunzheng could help her mother. Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian carried the child to check on her mother and discovered that she had suffered a severe stroke and was unlikely to recover. Since the girl and her mother were each other's only family, Gu Yunzheng didn't reveal the harsh truth. Instead, he advised the girl to help her mother with rehabilitation exercises regularly, hoping that the love between them could create a miracle.

A sudden rainstorm forced Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian to take shelter in a cave. Gu Yunzheng personally tended to Su Weian's wound, but she was reluctant to lift her shirt, so, in her haste, she admitted that Gu Yunzheng was not only a doctor in her eyes but also a man. As the rain gradually subsided, Gu Yunzheng suggested they go find the "Night Rainbow." Indeed, they ventured through the forest and finally found something in front of a waterfall.

On a night with a full moon, a dark red and colorful rainbow hung in the sky, surrounded by fireflies, creating a beautiful and romantic scene. In this beautiful setting, Gu Yunzheng once again summoned the courage to hold Su Weian's hand and gave her a stone he had picked up by the river. The two of them couldn't resist and shared a passionate kiss.

On the other hand, Du Yuncheng realized that both Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng were in La Carrière, which made him increasingly uneasy. He sent messages to Su Weian without receiving any replies and resolutely decided to go to La Carrière to find her. Soon after, a major breakthrough occurred in the development of the new drug HDQ39. Mr. Wen expressed confidence in the Phase III clinical trial results.

Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian admired the Night Rainbow and continued to explore the forest for an exit. Su Weian felt that there were sounds nearby and discovered a snake underfoot, which startled her. They both rolled down a hill. Gu Yunzheng sprained his ankle, and with no cellphone signal, Su Weian had to support him while looking for a place to rest. Jiang Muying and Fang Mingfan couldn't contact the two and had to come out to search for them.

Episode 10 Recap

Fang Mingfan and Jiang Muying were walking through the woods. Even though there were unknown dangers ahead, he would never give up easily. In fact, Fang Mingfan had undergone surgery with a scalpel in his early years, which was the first surgery of his life and it resulted in the patient's death on the operating table.

Since then, Fang Mingfan had been plagued by guilt, and people around him mocked and ridiculed him. Only Gu Yunzheng still had hope for him. It was because of this that Fang Mingfan regained his composure and never thought that someone as legendary as Gu Yunzheng would pay special attention to him, helping him overcome his past.

Later, Gu Yunzheng chose to go to Rakaya for assistance, and Fang Mingfan decided to follow him instead of facing the criticism back in their home country. For a while, Fang Mingfan was curious why Gu Yunzheng chose him. Gu Yunzheng explained that he didn't want to see deserters and hoped that everyone would face their challenges bravely. After hearing Fang Mingfan's story, Jiang Muying believed that he would eventually be able to pick up the scalpel again.

Su Weian supported Gu Yunzheng in the woods, while she tried to find a way to contact the locals for rescue. Fortunately, she acted in a timely manner, and Gu Yunzheng managed to stay somewhat conscious. After they were brought back to a friendly hospital, Su Weian stayed by his side and took care of him diligently. Jiang Muying and Fang Mingfan observed this, wondering if the two of them had gone through an unforgettable day and night.

During the weekend, Su Weian made a video call to her mother, expressing her longing for her while concealing the fact that she didn't study in Paris. On the other hand, Gu Yunzheng's assistance work was about to end in two weeks, and Fang Mingfan asked about his plans. Gu Yunzheng had temporarily suspended his glioma research project before the assistance, and it had made no progress since then. If it continued like this, he wouldn't be able to secure research funding for the next year. In addition, there was a once-every-four-years young talent program, and Fang Mingfan was worried that if Gu Yunzheng didn't return, He Xiaoguang might take advantage of the situation. Gu Yunzheng didn't provide a clear answer, primarily because he was uncertain whether Su Weian would accompany him back to their home country.

At this moment, Su Weian came to visit Gu Yunzheng, and Fang Mingfan tactfully left them alone. Since the night they had confessed their feelings, Gu Yunzheng had considered Su Weian his girlfriend and often teased her without maintaining his serious and professorial image. On this day, Gu Yunzheng brought Su Weian over, looking somewhat pitiful as he claimed his foot hadn't fully healed, and he asked if she would take responsibility for it.

Su Weian had no idea about Gu Yunzheng's ulterior motives and asked him how he wanted her to help. However, Gu Yunzheng's next words left Su Weian surprised. He explained, in a medical manner, that kissing was beneficial for pain relief, so the best treatment was to kiss. Before Su Weian could react, Gu Yunzheng had already leaned in for a kiss. Su Weian quickly turned her head and found an excuse to leave the office.

Wen Ran messaged Du Yuncheng, suggesting that their father wanted to have dinner together on the weekend. Du Yuncheng had originally planned to go to Rakaya, but the HDQ39III clinical trial had started, and the board of directors wanted to hold a press conference to boost their stock price. They hoped that Du Yuncheng would attend. His assistant noticed his hesitation and convinced him to go, emphasizing that only his dedication to the project would determine the board's attitude and smooth out the funding process. After hearing this, Du Yuncheng had to cancel his flight.

Fang Mingfan shared Gu Yunzheng's attitude with Jiang Muying, mainly because they couldn't confirm Su Weian's thoughts. Su Weian, for once, asked Jiang Muying for advice on whitening methods. Jiang Muying eagerly informed her of the news that Gu Yunzheng might return to their home country, hinting that Su Weian should choose to go back for love.

The next morning, Gu Yunzheng used his long-unhealed foot as an excuse to drive Su Weian to find a local shaman, intending to have a romantic date with her. They had a thrilling experience riding a sandbike on the beach and went to see a bridge built by the Chinese. They promised each other to travel and see more beautiful landscapes in the future.

As night fell, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian discovered that the mineral water in the back of the car had been replaced with alcohol by Fang Mingfan. They had no choice but to enjoy the night view while drinking. They couldn't help but share a deep and affectionate kiss, spending the night together in a tent. Su Weian woke up in Gu Yunzheng's arms, and the two of them enjoyed a particularly sweet and tender moment together.

Episode 11 Recap

Originally, the rescue mission was coming to an end, and Gu Yunzheng was hesitant. However, he now had a new choice, which was to stay in Rakaya for Su Weian and give up returning to his home country. Su Weian felt a complex mix of emotions upon hearing this. She quietly left the tent and, accompanied by Gu Yunzheng, watched the sunrise. Gu Yunzheng promised to spend the rest of his life with her.

On the way back, Su Weian looked at Gu Yunzheng's profile and reminisced about their moments together. Although she was moved by Gu Yunzheng's commitment, she also felt a hint of regret. Due to her illness, Su Weian didn't dare to expect too much for the future and was content with the present moment.

Upon learning that Gu Yunzheng had a girlfriend, Grandpa no longer held a grudge about his absence at the birthday banquet. He even started planning for a wedding room, leaving Gu Yunzheng somewhat amused. Later, Gu Yunzheng personally baked a cake, and it was done with such skill that Fang Mingfan couldn't help but wonder when he had learned to bake.

Gu Yunzheng paused for a moment upon hearing this and recalled his childhood. At the time, his mother had gone to Rakaya, and his father had remarried, leaving his birthday unnoticed by everyone except his grandpa, who had prepared a cake with great care. To make his grandson's birthday a happy one, even though he knew he had diabetes, Grandpa had taken a few bites of the cake, causing his blood sugar to rise. When Gu Yunzheng was scolded by his father, Grandpa had stepped in to defend him.

Over the years, Gu Yunzheng had never been able to share a cake with anyone, until he met Su Weian. He felt relieved that he had found a life partner. Gu Yunzheng sent a message to Su Weian, inviting her for a cake date on the rooftop that night. Curious Jiang Muying was eager to know about Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng's relationship.

At this moment, Su Weian received a call from her mother, and she learned that her aunt, Su Yuan, had just experienced a Huntington's disease episode. This news pushed her into a dark abyss, and her heart grew heavy. However, her mother hadn't noticed her distress and believed that Su Weian was studying in France. She urged her to come back and visit her aunt.

In the end, Su Weian decided to pack her things and return to her home country that very night. Before leaving, she confided everything to Jiang Muying and instructed her not to tell Gu Yunzheng. Although it tore Su Weian apart, she didn't want to burden him, so she left the friendly hospital with her luggage.

Meanwhile, Gu Yunzheng was preparing a grand confession ceremony on the hospital rooftop but hadn't seen Su Weian's arrival. He called her, but she didn't answer. Jiang Muying informed him that Su Weian had left without saying a word. Gu Yunzheng rushed to the airport, but Su Weian had already boarded a flight to China, refusing to answer her phone and turning it off. Gu Yunzheng stood there in disappointment.

After returning to China, Su Weian met her aunt, Su Yuan, and noticed that the room's layout hadn't changed since her childhood. When her father had died in a car accident years ago, Su Weian had reviewed surveillance footage and observed that her father's hands seemed uncontrollable. It was later revealed that she had inherited Huntington's disease, which could manifest at the age of thirty, making it impossible for her to hold a scalpel ever again.

Su Weian searched for the latest research on treating Huntington's disease in China and found that Zhonghe Hospital was recruiting participants for the HDQ39 research. She proactively discussed persuading her aunt to participate in the clinical trial with her mother. That evening, Su Weian messaged Wen Ran, hoping for her assistance in making a recommendation, but Wen Ran seemed indifferent to her request.

Since Su Weian's departure, Gu Yunzheng had been working overtime for several days and nights. Even during his breaks, he would sit alone, lost in thought, and everyone guessed that it was related to Su Weian. Jiang Muying took a photo of him and sent it to Su Weian, feeling sorry for him. Su Weian was equally tormented, but she couldn't think of anything else at the moment. The top priority was to prevent her aunt, Su Yuan, from wanting to end her life, so she made an effort to encourage her.

The next morning, Su Weian went to Zhonghe Hospital herself and crossed paths with Du Yuncheng.

Episode 12 Recap

Du Yuncheng always felt like he saw Su Weian, but when he turned around, he didn't find the familiar figure. Wen Ran is still planning to throw a celebration party for Du Yuncheng, but Du Yuncheng has no interest in it at all. Since Grandpa Du has no plans for a birthday banquet this year, there won't be many outsiders invited. Wen Ran wants to attend as Du Yuncheng's fiancée, implying that she wants to be with him forever. Du Yuncheng deliberately avoids the topic and says he's going on a business trip in a while.

Dr. Yang from Zhanghe Hospital responded that the recruitment for Phase III is already full with 300 participants, so they closed the registration channel. Su Weian hopes Dr. Yang can be flexible, even though he can't make the final decision, she asks if she can be put on the waiting list. After returning to China, Su Weian went to the bar where she used to work and joined their band again.

That night, Su Weian used a discussion about medicine as an excuse to get her mom to go to the bar for a performance. Du's mother has her eyes on Wen Ran's background and wants to match her son with her. Unfortunately, Du Yuncheng has very little affection for Wen Ran and shows little enthusiasm whenever she is mentioned.

While they were talking, Wen Ran pretended to be harassed and messaged Du Yuncheng for help. He urgently rushed to the bar to rescue her, only to find out it was a prank. Wen Ran threw a celebration party for Du Yuncheng and invited many friends. Du Yuncheng tried to suppress his displeasure and noticed a figure that looked a lot like Su Weian.

In fact, Wen Ran had already seen Su Weian but was worried that Du Yuncheng would meet her. She quickly blocked his view and made him accompany her through the event's queue. Du Yuncheng returned home reeking of alcohol, thinking about the familiar figure he saw tonight, and couldn't help but check Su Weian's location on WeChat, discovering that she was in China.

Because of Su Weian's abrupt departure, Gu Yunzheng is tormented every day and sometimes mistakes others for her. Fang Mingfan speaks up for Gu Yunzheng, thinking what Su Weian did was unfair and receives a reaction from Jiang Muying. In order to clarify Jiang Muying's feelings, Fang Mingfan gives her a cat named "Peanut" because he is going back to his home country. He promises to take care of the cat, officially establishing their relationship.

Gu Yunzheng comes to Nero Bridge alone to admire the night view and suddenly notices that the bridge's plaque bears the name of his mother, Gu Xingchen, along with the words: "Rainbows are gifts of the storm, and love is life's miracle." The date is Gu Yunzheng's birthday. With this, Gu Yunzheng finally understands the meaning of the "Dark Night Rainbow" and decides to return home.

Su Weian tries to contact Wen Ran several times but doesn't get a response. In desperation, she goes to the pharmaceutical company to find the owner, only to discover that it's Du Yuncheng. On the contrary, when Wen Ran suddenly appears, she observes that Du Yuncheng is still not over Su Weian and pretends to be close but secretly makes things difficult for Su Weian.

After leaving the pharmaceutical company, Su Weian thinks about what Wen Ran did during their university days. In order to seize authorship, Wen Ran resorted to malicious slander against Su Weian and used her father's influence to persuade Professor He to change the authorship. From that moment on, Su Weian saw through Wen Ran's hypocrisy, and their friendship completely fell apart.

Then, Du Yuncheng and Wen Ran invite Su Weian for a meal. Du Yuncheng promises to arrange a suitable spot for Su Weian, but Wen Ran keeps making snide remarks. Su Weian, in order to please her aunt, can only compromise and begs Wen Ran for help, but Wen Ran is still reluctant.

Su Weian returns home and can't find the stone that Gu Yunzheng gave her, thinking her mom might have thrown it away. Unexpectedly, her mom had guessed that it was a gift from her boyfriend and kept it safe. Su Weian cherishes the stone, fearing it might get lost again, so she goes to a craftsman to have it made into a pendant. The craftsman, knowing the stone's significance to Su Weian, promises to make a convenient keychain for her to carry.

Episode 13 Recap

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Grandpa Du's 80th birthday. Former subordinates and old friends came to offer their congratulations, and the Du family personally received them. Du Yuncheng was on the balcony talking to his assistant, informing him that he must ensure that Su Weian's aunt enters the experimental group and ensure that it's done legally and fairly. The assistant promised to handle everything.

Du's mother came over to question her son, telling him to use this opportunity to bring Wen Ran to the birthday banquet to impress his grandfather. However, Du Yuncheng disagreed with this idea, stating that even if he married the most outstanding woman in the world, his grandfather would still prefer Gu Yunzheng. Because of this, Du's mother was upset that her son was not getting the recognition he deserved and complained to Du Yongsong.

Just then, Gu Yunzheng entered with his luggage. His presence surprised the entire family, but Grandpa Du was very happy and couldn't wait to introduce his outstanding grandson to his friends. Even if Du's mother had any dissatisfaction, she couldn't show it. On the other hand, Du Yongsong complained that Gu Yunzheng shouldn't have come back today because there was an awards ceremony at the Friendly Hospital, with many embassy officials in attendance. It was a good opportunity to expand his network.

Later, Du Yongsong informed Gu Yunzheng that he would be reporting to the hospital next week, and he had already been promoted to a third-tier position. Gu Yunzheng responded with a look of disdain, stating that promotions are based on the comprehensive assessment by the department leaders and that he had accumulated over 800 surgeries. He emphasized that his promotion was based on merit and had nothing to do with Du Yongsong.

With tension in the air, Grandpa Du intervened to prevent the impending argument between the two. Gu Yunzheng brought back many things for his grandfather, and he mentioned how he met General Kuwat, who knew it was his grandfather's birthday. General Kuwat had specially sent a World War II German-made pocket watch as a gift and awarded Gu Yunzheng a medal.

Grandpa Du was genuinely proud of Gu Yunzheng and couldn't stop bragging to everyone. Du Yuncheng couldn't stay any longer and made an excuse to leave for the company. While his parents advised him to stay and wait for the birthday banquet to end, Grandpa Du was indifferent and only cared about having Gu Yunzheng present. Du Yuncheng left in front of everyone's gaze.

Jiang Muying went to see Su Weian as soon as she returned from Lakaya but was bombarded with questions by Su's mother, who was eager to know about Su Weian's relationship status. Jiang Muying quickly came up with a clever explanation about the origin of the stone, claiming it was a lucky charm for attracting love. Su's mother had heard her daughter mumbling Yunzheng's name in her sleep, so Jiang Muying quickly diverted the conversation, suggesting it was about Du Yuncheng. She managed to steer clear of the topic.

After completing his medical mission, Gu Yunzheng returned to Friendly Hospital and once again encountered the arrogant and arrogant He Xiaoguang, who was not only his colleague but also his competitor. Fang Mingfan and Gu Yunzheng arranged to have a psychological evaluation at the mental health department. They had heard that a newly graduated female Ph.D. from Harvard had joined the hospital. Unexpectedly, Dr. Li Wantong was instantly infatuated with Gu Yunzheng.

Faced with Li Wantong's confession, Gu Yunzheng found it unbelievable and thought she must be crazy, not taking it seriously. Fang Mingfan made plans to have dinner with Jiang Muying, but she was busy entertaining neighbors who had returned from the United States. Initially uninterested in the dinner, Jiang Muying changed her mind when she saw the neighbor's son, Yan Kai, who instantly charmed her with his good looks. She also recalled childhood memories, and they exchanged contact information.

Su Weian's aunt successfully entered the experimental group, and the whole family was grateful to Du Yuncheng. Su's mother, in particular, was excited and began planning matchmaking scenarios. Su Weian, feeling a sense of belonging, deliberately kept her distance from Du Yuncheng but wanted to thank him by inviting him to dinner. At the same time, Gu Yunzheng learned about Su Weian's past and her hidden reasons for dropping out of school from Hua Ren Medical University, which raised suspicions in his mind.

That evening, Gu Yunzheng drove to Su's address in hopes of running into her. However, he accidentally saw Su Weian and Du Yuncheng together, leading to a misunderstanding about the real reason for Su Weian's return to China. Originally, Gu Yunzheng wanted to clear things up, but the hospital received an emergency case involving a brain herniation patient, forcing him to turn back and rush to the hospital.

Episode 14 Recap

Su Weian came to Huaren Hospital to arrange for a psychologist for her aunt. Coincidentally, she bumped into Li Wantong pursuing Gu Yunzheng. When she heard Li Wantong mention the importance of nurturing excellent offspring genes, she instantly thought of herself and felt uncomfortable. Huntington's disease is genetically inherited, with a 50% chance, and Su Weian self-deprecatingly feels that living is already difficult and she can't expect too much.

Jiang Muying discovered that Fang Mingfan had blocked her on his social circle through Su Weian and promptly received an invitation from Yan Kai to watch a movie. The next morning, Jiang Muying had a date with Fang Mingfan and gave him a thoughtful duty gift package. However, when she inquired about his troubles, Fang Mingfan responded evasively. Jiang Muying left in anger and personally went to their meeting place. Yan Kai even sent photos to his mother as a report.

Due to this conflict, Fang Mingfan couldn't help but complain to Gu Yunzheng, who urged him to find Su Weian as soon as possible. That evening, Su Weian and Jiang Muying chatted in a bar, persuading her to cherish their relationship. Jiang Muying decisively took a few photos and shared her location on her social circle.

Based on Jiang Muying's social circle location, Fang Mingfan found the bar and discovered that Su Weian was with Du Yunfei. He hurriedly took photos to send to Gu Yunzheng. On the other hand, Wen Ran called Du Yuncheng, but he didn't answer. She used a mobile app to locate Du Yuncheng's whereabouts and secretly followed Gu Yunzheng to the bar.

At the same time, Su Weian and Du Yuncheng took the stage to perform, reliving the glory days of Huaren Band. Du Yuncheng sang passionately and beautifully, but Su Weian's mind was filled with memories of their time in La Caya. Gu Yunzheng stood in the audience and was particularly unhappy, especially with the synergy between Su Weian and Du Yuncheng.

After the performance, Du Yuncheng approached Gu Yunzheng, who couldn't help but mock him for playing a musical instrument. Fang Mingfan proactively approached Jiang Muying, and they both came to terms with their differences. They completely reconciled.

Wen Ran went to the bar and instigated a drunk man to harass Su Weian. At a crucial moment, a heroic figure stepped in to save her, and it turned out to be Li Wantong. Li Wantong not only had excellent martial skills but also a sharp tongue, leaving the drunk man speechless. When he attempted to attack, Gu Yunzheng kicked him out, and the bar's security staff promptly removed him.

Gu Yunzheng noticed the suspicious Wen Ran not far away and asked the bar owner to retrieve the surveillance footage, to which the owner readily agreed. Following Li Wantong's and others' advice, they all gathered for a drink and a chat, even playing a game of Truth or Dare. Du Yuncheng drew "truth" and admitted that he liked someone among the women present. Gu Yunzheng used the game as an opportunity to "confess" to Su Weian, even asking why she had left without a word.

It was Su Weian's turn to choose "truth or dare." The challenge was to maintain eye contact with the person across from her for thirty seconds. Initially, Su Weian wanted to refuse and drink instead, but she was subjected to Gu Yunzheng's taunts. In the end, Su Weian reluctantly attempted to maintain eye contact but gave up after a few seconds. Du Yuncheng noticed that the relationship between the two was not simple and felt uneasy.

Unable to endure the situation, Su Weian stood up and left the bar, with Du Yuncheng chasing after her. Gu Yunzheng also wanted to find Su Weian, but Jiang Muying blocked his path. Jiang Muying expressed that responsible adults should prioritize their own feelings, and the past, no matter how beautiful, is in the past. She hoped Gu Yunzheng would not continue to obsessively pursue Su Weian, as it was making everyone unhappy.

Episode 15 Recap

Du Yuncheng followed Su Weian out of the bar and comforted her, telling her not to put too much pressure on herself and to relax from time to time. Su Weian unconsciously revealed that she didn't have much time, but quickly changed the topic, mentioning the need to earn money to support her family. Her mother's retirement fund and loans all fell on her shoulders. Seeing Su Weian working so hard, Du Yuncheng felt sympathetic and reminded her not to stress too much, assuring her that he would always stand by her and offer support.

Su Weian's aunt, Su Yuan, had a sudden ruptured aneurysm and was urgently taken to the hospital. Unfortunately, the doctor on duty was He Xiaoguang, who had a grudge against Su Weian, and Wen Ran, who had been causing trouble for her. He Xiaoguang refused to admit Su Yuan, citing Huntington's disease as the reason, which infuriated Su Weian. In a critical moment, Gu Yunzheng rushed over, examined Su Yuan's condition, and arranged a head CT scan.

It was through this incident that Gu Yunzheng learned about Su Weian's aunt's Huntington's disease. This gave him a clue about why Su Weian had left without a word. However, his immediate concern was Su Yuan's surgery. He asked Fang Mingfan if he knew that Su Yuan was Su Weian's biological aunt, and upon receiving confirmation, he felt complicated emotions.

Fortunately, the surgery was very successful, but it would take time to wake up, and Su Yuan couldn't participate in the medication trial for the time being. Du Yuncheng offered to take Su Weian and her mother home. Su's mother was curious about Du Yuncheng's relationship with Gu Yunzheng, as having someone familiar at the hospital would be convenient for taking care of Su Yuan. Du Yuncheng explained that his father was the hospital's dean, reassuring Su's mother not to worry. He also noticed that Su Weian seemed reluctant to mention her experiences in La Caya in front of her mother.

The next morning, Li Wantong boldly confessed her love to Gu Yunzheng in the elevator, which Su Weian witnessed. Gu Yunzheng clearly rejected Li Wantong and pulled Su Weian into the elevator, questioning her about her sudden departure and concealment. It was apparent that Su Weian didn't want to respond, emphasizing that she had returned this time for Du Yuncheng. Gu Yunzheng had no words to say and left the elevator in anger.

Du Yuncheng visited the hospital again, caring for Su Weian and offering her a candy she liked when he saw her coughing. Wen Ran intentionally approached them and introduced herself as Du Yuncheng's girlfriend. She also mentioned the dominant inheritance gene related to Huntington's disease, subtly implying that Su Weian might be at risk. Su Weian refuted the idea that she had the disease and reassured her nervous mother. Du Yuncheng, upon hearing this, made up an excuse to get Wen Ran to leave.

Fang Mingfan had the necessary knowledge but lacked the courage to perform surgery. He noticed that Gu Yunzheng was still in his office and revealed that Du Yuncheng had been coming to the hospital frequently. This caught Gu Yunzheng's attention. Gu Yunzheng and Du Yuncheng both used their skills to help Su Weian find temporary accommodation. The two brothers competed with each other, and Su Weian chose to stay in the hospital's duty room.

Gu Yunzheng brought Su Weian to a lounge, where He Xiaoguang sarcastically commented on their presence but was silenced by Gu Yunzheng. After He Xiaoguang left, Su Weian thanked Gu Yunzheng for his support, not expecting him to remind her to maintain her relationship with Du Yuncheng and avoid excessive contact between a man and a woman. Su Weian tried to evade Gu Yunzheng, but she accidentally dropped a stone keychain that he had given her. Gu Yunzheng realized that Su Weian still had feelings for him, but she refused to admit it.

Jiang Muying contemplated telling Yan Kai about her boyfriend but was surprised when he confessed that he wasn't interested in her at all, only pretending to please his parents. Seeing Yan Kai leave with another guy, Jiang Muying felt like a joke and a clown. He Xiaoguang saw Fang Mingfan still on duty in his office and taunted him, saying that he couldn't pick up a scalpel, so he couldn't be a qualified doctor, suggesting that he should give up. Just as He Xiaoguang finished speaking, Jiang Muying confronted him and defended Fang Mingfan.

Gu Yunzheng personally brought a late-night snack to Su Weian, who didn't want to eat alone in the hospital lobby. While eating, Gu Yunzheng expressed his care in various ways. On the other hand, Du Yuncheng saw the bar owner's surveillance video on his phone and immediately met Wen Ran to break up.

Episode 16 Recap

Wen Ran believed that Du Yuncheng's reason for breaking up was Su Weian, but Du Yuncheng showed his phone's location-sharing software, expressing his strong dislike for such a relationship built on mutual distrust. This deepened Wen Ran's resentment towards Su Weian. She intentionally spread rumors at the hospital about Su Weian having reported her supervisor, He Xiaoguang, and dropping out of school. Even her lie about studying in Paris was publicly exposed by He Xiaoguang.

As Su's mother neared a breakdown, Gu Yunzheng stepped in to defend Su Weian. He emphasized that Su Weian was one of the most outstanding students he had taught and hadn't done anything wrong in the past. Instead, he hinted at some teachers playing petty tricks and violating their professional ethics. This infuriated He Xiaoguang, who retorted that Gu Yunzheng's support for Su Weian was driven by personal feelings. Su's mother berated He Xiaoguang, leaving him speechless and letting out her pent-up anger on his behalf.

Following this, Su Weian admitted to her mother that she had dropped out of school but concealed the fact that she had a hereditary Huntington's disease from her father's side. She claimed she didn't want to continue studying medicine and had been traveling abroad for these years. Her mother refrained from blaming her daughter and didn't press further, but she couldn't help being curious about Su Weian's relationship with Gu Yunzheng, to which Su Weian denied any romantic involvement.

Du Yuncheng arranged a VIP ward for his aunt, and the whole family was grateful, except for Gu Yunzheng, who felt extremely uncomfortable about the situation. Su Yuan's condition became more apparent after waking up, with uncontrollable hand tremors. She was also mocked by the children at the hospital, which severely affected her self-esteem. Gu Yunzheng prepared some aids for Su Yuan, which moved Su Weian. However, in the presence of Gu Yunzheng, she tended to avoid him unintentionally. Gu Yunzheng hoped Su Weian would not act like a deserter in the face of any future challenges.

After work, Gu Yunzheng went to the library to search for literature on Huntington's disease, and he stayed in his office all night reading. Su Weian brought him a late-night snack and thanked him for taking care of her aunt. She inadvertently noticed him reading about the disease and felt that he didn't need to waste time on an incurable condition.

Wen Ran recalled Du Yuncheng's investment in research on Huntington's disease and the fact that Su Weian's aunt had the disease. She suspected that Su Weian might also have Huntington's disease. As a result, Wen Ran stirred things up, forcing Su Weian to undergo genetic testing at Huaren Hospital. She even took Su Weian's toothbrush without permission and handed it to the testing center. Su Weian was angry and accused her of acting without consent, but Wen Ran hypocritically claimed it was to ensure the accuracy of the test report.

Early the next morning, Su Weian sent Jiang Muying to switch the test reports with a negative result, but Wen Ran got there first. Without the person's consent, Wen Ran found Xiao Juan from the testing center and took the report for various reasons. As expected, the report confirmed her suspicions of a positive result. Jiang Muying hurriedly called Su Weian, and luckily Su Weian had prepared an extra report in advance. However, while on her way to the hospital room, Jiang Muying encountered Gu Yunzheng, lied that she was there for a check-up, and couldn't hand over the report.

Gu Yunzheng didn't believe her, as there was no need for a genetic test if she had stomach discomfort. He suspected it was related to Su Weian and rushed back to check. At the same time, Du Yuncheng received a message from Wen Ran and came to the hospital. Wen Ran publicly claimed that Su Weian had Huntington's disease in front of Su's mother, who found it hard to accept.

Jiang Muying entered with the report that showed a negative result. Both of them had different stories, and Su's mother didn't know who to believe. At a critical moment, Gu Yunzheng questioned Wen Ran for taking the report without authorization, stating it was a severe breach of discipline. Wen Ran, fearing Gu Yunzheng's warning, had to lie that she had found the report. Su's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Gu Yunzheng still didn't believe that Jiang Muying's report was genuine. He found Xiao Juan from the testing center, and although she denied it, her nervous demeanor revealed her deception. Su Weian knew that Gu Yunzheng would have suspicions, but she couldn't make any promises. She hoped to end the relationship early, rather than wait for the disease to progress and cause more pain. Gu Yunzheng drove Su Weian away, but she emphasized that she had no feelings for him and that their time in La Caya was just a moment of impulsiveness.

Episode 17 Recap

Su Weian tried hard to distance herself from Gu Yunzheng, but Gu Yunzheng felt that she was being hypocritical. Despite her harsh words, he believed that she actually loved him more. So, Gu Yunzheng decided to reverse Su Weian's words and she felt extremely speechless, choosing to walk away without saying another word.

Upon learning about Wen Ran's actions, Du Yuncheng questioned her sternly. Wen Ran argued that Su Weian had ulterior motives. However, when she recalled the beginning of her relationship with Du Yuncheng, she suddenly realized that he had deliberately approached her, and investing in the HDQ39 project was for Su Weian.

In the past, Wen Ran liked Du Yuncheng and introduced him to her father. Their interactions became more frequent. Du Yuncheng had no romantic feelings for Wen Ran and publicly rejected her confession. From that moment, he was avoided by Wen Ran's father. Later, Du Yuncheng sought help from Wen Ran and had no choice but to be with her.

Du Yuncheng knew that Wen Ran was vain and utilitarian. Before knowing he was the son of Du Yongsong, she had never spoken to him. Threatening to ruin his career if he insisted on breaking up, Du Yuncheng found it ironic and laughable, stating that Professor Wen would understand what matters more.

In the next scene, Du Yuncheng called Su Weian and drove to pick her up based on the location. Su Weian glanced at Gu Yunzheng quietly following her but still got into Du Yuncheng's car. On the way back, Du Yuncheng revealed to Su Weian that he had broken up with Wen Ran and hoped she could help him at Jiehui Company. However, Su Weian politely refused.

Gu Yunzheng remembered Du Yuncheng's caring for Su Weian and thought he liked her. The next morning, Gu Yunzheng prepared breakfast for Su Weian, but it ended in disappointment. Coincidentally, Du Yuncheng approached, and Su Weian suggested visiting Jiehui Company, using him as a shield.

In reality, Du Yuncheng sincerely invited Su Weian to visit the company, emphasizing the charitable research pipeline, including the drug for Huntington's disease. The upcoming Sino-French neurosurgery academic exchange would be held in Shenzhen, and Dr. Lu from the French National Scientific Research Center would arrive in Jinhai over the weekend. Su Weian had heard about Dr. Lu, and Du Yuncheng asked her to help receive him.

On the other side, Gu Yunzheng received the news and represented Huaren Hospital to welcome Dr. Lu. During the conversation, Dr. Lu ignored Gu Yunzheng, frustrating his assistant. Du Yuncheng and Su Weian, representing Jiehui Company, arrived at Dr. Lu's hotel. The two sides competed for Dr. Lu's patent.

Taking the opportunity while Su Weian talked to Dr. Lu, Du Yuncheng directly told Gu Yunzheng that he liked Su Weian and would pursue her. In the following days, the three accompanied Dr. Lu. Initially resistant, Dr. Lu was convinced by Su Weian to let her be his guide.

During this time, they promised not to discuss business. Dr. Lu's stamina was impressive, visiting one attraction after another, even challenging Su Weian. Gu Yunzheng called his teacher, mentioning Dr. Lu's stubbornness, and the teacher replied that he was known for it, needing sincerity and genuine efforts to impress him.

Wen Ran privately met Du's mother, feigning grievances and revealing Du Yuncheng's infatuation with Su Weian. She also smeared Su Weian, claiming that she deliberately seduced Du Yuncheng. Du's mother, already fond of Wen Ran and her family background, immediately called her son, reminding him to cherish his relationship with Wen Ran. Du Yuncheng saw through Wen Ran's scheme but didn't expose her directly.

Although Dr. Lu had already made it clear he wouldn't sell the patent, Su Weian hadn't given up. She, along with Gu Yunzheng, took Dr. Lu to the Wanwei Bar, where she joined the band onstage to ensure Dr. Lu enjoyed himself. Dr. Lu noticed Gu Yunzheng's smiling face when looking at Su Weian, took several photos, and revealed that both he and Du Yuncheng liked this girl.

Episode 18 Recap

Facing Dr. Lu's curiosity, Gu Yunzheng admitted his feelings for Su Weian, stating that she was a very special girl. Dr. Lu observed the mutual affection between Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng and suggested a collaboration between them. Gu Yunzheng took this opportunity to confess his feelings, and the rainbow-like atmosphere touched Su Weian's heart, forcing her to suppress her emotions.

Su Weian boldly speculated about flaws in the patent, earning Dr. Lu's attention, but he still did not consider collaboration. After leaving the bar, Gu Yunzheng privately told Su Weian that there were definite issues with the HDQ39 project. He suspected a connection between her aunt's brain aneurysm and the drug trial. However, Su Weian was unwilling to abruptly stop the medication, decisively rejecting Gu Yunzheng's advice.

Du Yuncheng, arranged by his mother, went on a date with Wen Ran. While driving her home, he warned her not to play tricks in the future. His mother liked Wen Ran due to her family background. Wen Ran didn't mind, but Du Yuncheng made it clear that their relationship was for the development of the HDQ39 project. If Professor Wen hadn't threatened him with Wen Ran, he wouldn't have started this relationship.

Later, Du Yuncheng called Su Weian, only to have the call abruptly ended by Gu Yunzheng. Gu Yunzheng was very displeased with the frequent interactions between Su Weian and Du Yuncheng. He questioned what Su Weian considered the things that had happened between them, especially the incident at La Caya. He wondered why Su Weian could unilaterally declare the end and conclude it hastily.

Su Weian admitted that she was the type of person who liked to give up halfway, never taking relationships seriously. Her words disappointed Gu Yunzheng. In front of Su Weian, Gu Yunzheng threw away the stone, leading to a big argument, and they ultimately chose to go their separate ways. Su Weian locked herself in the bathroom at home, with Gu Yunzheng's questions echoing in her mind, feeling heartbroken.

Meanwhile, Gu Yunzheng got drunk at the bar. Li Wantong found out and took him back to the hotel. When Gu Yunzheng woke up and saw Li Wantong lying next to him, nothing happened between them. However, Li Wantong persistently pursued Gu Yunzheng and even accompanied him back to the hospital, which the doctors and nurses noticed.

Du Yuncheng and Su Weian discovered Dr. Lu collapsed in his hotel room. When taken to the hospital, they learned he had cancer with a short life expectancy. Concerning the patent, Du Yuncheng no longer insisted. Su Weian informed Du Yuncheng that the aneurysm might be related to the drug trial, and they might need to suspend the experiment. Du Yuncheng said they would wait for Professor Wen's and other supervisors' feedback.

During the conversation, Wen Ran came over, sarcastically mocking Su Weian and accusing her of stealing credit and a boyfriend. On the other side, Li Wantong came to find Gu Yunzheng again, coincidentally seen by Su Weian. She overheard the words "that night" and misunderstood the situation. After Su Weian left, Gu Yunzheng shook off Li Wantong's entanglement, reminding her to return to her position during working hours. In reality, Li Wantong came to discuss the feasibility of interdisciplinary cooperation with Gu Yunzheng, suggesting communication via WeChat, but Gu Yunzheng preferred email.

Everyone accompanied Aunt Su Yuan as she was discharged from the hospital, and they found many people in the stairwell. Du Yuncheng carried Su Yuan downstairs, mentioning the possibility of stopping the medication. Su Yuan became very emotional, accidentally pushing Su Weian to the ground, resulting in a sprained ankle. Du Yuncheng picked her up and walked out, once again caught in Gu Yunzheng's sight.

To alleviate her Huntington's disease, Su Yuan doubled her intake of experimental drugs. Hospital Director Wang Huanzhong asked Gu Yunzheng to invite Li Wantong to dinner on behalf of the department, and Gu Yunzheng had to agree. At the same time, Gu Yunzheng took Su Weian out for dinner. Su Weian noticed the expensive prices of each dish, feeling a bit distressed. Coincidentally, they ran into Gu Yunzheng and Li Wantong, creating an awkward scene.

Episode 19 Recap

Su Weian couldn't stand it anymore, so she found an excuse to leave, lying on the bed and comforting herself that it had long passed, and there was no need to feel sad for Gu Yunzheng. Dr. Lu suddenly sent a message, informing Su Weian to come to the hospital tomorrow. Su Weian specially brought healthy food to the ward and found that Dr. Lu had already prepared the patent transfer documents, with the cost only being one yuan.

After this period of interaction, Dr. Lu thought Su Weian was a good girl. He believed that with her, his patent wouldn't be in vain. He also proposed to address the incomplete brainstem fibers issue, requiring a significant investment of funds and time. Su Weian assured Dr. Lu that Jiehui Company would spare no effort, promising not to disappoint him.

The Sino-French neurosurgery exchange meeting was held in Shenzhen. Gu Yunzheng represented Hua Ren Hospital to attend, but unexpectedly, Li Wantong also arrived, mentioning a plan to create a perfect genetic offspring to Gu Yunzheng. Gu Yunzheng found it unbelievable and somewhat ridiculous, unable to accept such a union without love. He considered Li Wantong's words to be groundless.

Elliott flew from France to China to attend the meeting, where he met Li Wantong, and his excellent genes became Li Wantong's new target. After the meeting, Gu Yunzheng learned from Elliott the reason Su Weian didn't go to Paris last time. Associating it with Su Weian's abnormal behavior, he confirmed that Su Weian was suffering from Huntington's disease and hastily booked a flight back to Jinhai.

That night, Su Yuan's second cerebral aneurysm ruptured, worsening her condition. Su Weian and her mother rushed Su Yuan to the hospital. Upon hearing this, the on-duty doctor immediately arranged a head scan and notified He Xiaoguang to perform surgery. When Su Weian heard He Xiaoguang's name, she suddenly froze. She had doubts about He Xiaoguang's character and even his medical skills.

Because of this, Su Weian immediately thought of Gu Yunzheng, trying to call the number they used in La Caya, unexpectedly getting through. Crying, Su Weian called Gu Yunzheng to explain the situation, fearing that if He Xiaoguang performed the surgery, her aunt Su Yuan might never recover. Gu Yunzheng comforted Su Weian, asking her not to worry and promising to rush back to the hospital. He successfully completed the surgery for Su Yuan, leaving Su Weian deeply moved.

Gu Yunzheng, angry and blaming Su Weian for evasion and irresponsibility to herself and her family, made Su Weian feel guilty. She complained about why misfortune had to strike them. Listening to Su Weian's words, Gu Yunzheng's anger subsided somewhat. He silently hugged Su Weian, giving her the greatest encouragement.

Due to her aunt's illness, after much consideration, Su Weian finally rejected Du Yuncheng's job offer. She also asked him to confirm whether the drug trial team had reported the relevant information to the supervisory department and the ethics committee, letting them decide whether to temporarily stop the drug. Additionally, the trial team needed to conduct research to clarify the relationship between HDQ39 and aneurysms. Although Du Yuncheng promised Su Weian, he had other considerations in mind.

Not long after, Gu Yunzheng received a message from Li Wantong. She stated that she had a new target and would no longer continue to entangle him. She also noticed that her love was causing great pressure on Su Weian. She suggested that to retain this relationship, he should stop being too aggressive, showing that he could take it or leave it, which might get Su Weian's attention.

Under Li Wantong's advice, Gu Yunzheng contacted Jiang Muying, preparing to stage a big act. Jiang Muying racked her brains to deceive Su Weian into signing a "black-hearted" contract with lucrative rewards. This caused Su Weian to once again become Gu Yunzheng's translator. If Su Weian wanted to resolve this, she would have to compensate a sky-high penalty.

As a result, Su Weian had to return to Hua Ren Hospital to work with Gu Yunzheng. Although she was only a temporary worker, she put on the coveted white coat and cherished this job opportunity. On the surface, Gu Yunzheng pretended to be indifferent to Su Weian, but secretly, he had been keeping an eye on her.

Episode 20 Recap

Since Su Weian started working as a part-time translator at the hospital, Gu Yunzheng has been paying constant attention to her, deliberately maintaining his aloof and indifferent demeanor. Observing Su Weian's frugality, Gu Yunzheng started feeding her with leftovers under the guise of "girlfriend leftovers." He secretly treated her well, preparing delicious food for her every day.

Sometimes Gu Yunzheng would distribute to colleagues in the department, but if it was a personally cooked chicken soup, he would put it in a takeout bag and send it to Su Weian. Others could only watch, but they were well aware of how much Gu Yunzheng cared for Su Weian. One evening, while Su Weian was going downstairs to dispose of garbage, she ran into Du Yuncheng. The two started chatting, and Du Yuncheng's intimate actions made Gu Yunzheng insanely jealous.

On the way back, Su Weian stared at her aunt's medical examination report and couldn't determine whether the cerebral aneurysm was related to the HDQ39 project. If it were true, Du Yuncheng's painstaking project would be declared suspended. So Su Weian wanted to talk to Professor Wen to understand the situation. She also hoped her aunt's aneurysm was just an exception and persuaded Du Yuncheng not to give up easily. She genuinely wanted the drug for treating Huntington's disease to be launched soon.

Su Weian sent an email to Professor Wen through Jiehui Company, and Du Yuncheng took Su Weian to visit the dance disorder charity photography exhibition hosted by Jiehui. Each photo had the patient's personal story, and Su Weian admired her senior brother even more. When Wen Ran saw the mail delivered to her house, she opened it and found Su Yuan's medical records. She promptly tore them up and threw them in the trash.

Later, Wen Ran came to Jiehui Company and, not finding Du Yuncheng, discovered the photography exhibition. Gu Yunzheng once again let Su Weian taste soda biscuits under the pretext of a taste test. Su Weian enjoyed it but had mixed feelings. That night, Gu Yunzheng drove Su Weian home. Su Weian noticed that Gu Yunzheng seemed very tired. She sat directly in the driver's seat, telling him to rest well. Upon reaching the building, Su Weian leaned in to take a peek, almost exposing the fact that she still loved Gu Yunzheng.

Now that the translation has reached two-thirds completion, Gu Yunzheng intentionally increased the workload. While Su Weian was at work, she saw Li Wantong and Elliott kissing in the car. Considering Li Wantong was already Gu Yunzheng's girlfriend, Su Weian felt she was walking on thin ice. Su Weian was conflicted about whether to tell Gu Yunzheng about this. Just as she was about to find Gu Yunzheng, she overheard colleagues discussing that he seemed to be in a bad mood these days, suspecting he might have some inkling.

Su Weian went to the office and found Gu Yunzheng absent, but Fang Mingfan was reviewing surgical plans. Li Wantong kindly reminded Fang Mingfan not to experience another surgical failure. Su Weian spoke up for Fang Mingfan, saying that once a doctor is on the operating table, they should forget personal gains and losses. Picking up a scalpel is for the patient's best treatment. If personal honor is placed above this, it is an insult to the medical profession.

These words made Fang Mingfan thoughtful, and she expressed that her views were aligned with Gu Yunzheng's. Li Wantong felt Su Weian seemed to have some opinions about her. Su Weian didn't want to be explicit and hinted that since she had successfully pursued Gu Yunzheng, she should treat this relationship well. After saying this, she turned and left, leaving Li Wantong confused.

Early one morning, Wen Ran came arrogantly to scold Su Weian, accusing her of trying to sabotage the project. However, she would never let Su Weian's scheme succeed. Su Weian, aware that the information had been torn, decided to personally deliver the materials to Zhanghe Hospital to feel more assured. Coincidentally, Professor Wen was still in a meeting, so Su Weian had to give the materials to Director Yang. Unexpectedly, Director Yang immediately destroyed the documents and deleted the email Su Weian sent.

Du Yuncheng privately found Wen Ran and warned her not to do things that harm others and not to get too close to Su Weian. He also advised her not to call herself the boss in front of company employees. Wen Ran returned home in a fit of anger and deliberately spoke ill of Su Weian in front of her father, portraying Su Weian as having an extremely poor character.

Episode 21 Recap

Elliott was entrusted by Gu Yunzheng to find information and literature on gene editing technology. He promptly had his assistant send it to Gu Yunzheng's email, and Gu Yunzheng handed it over to Su Weian for translation. Just as Su Weian was about to translate all night, Du Yuncheng came to the lab to bring her supper, and the two collaborated on the translation.

Upon learning that they spent the night together in the lab, Gu Yunzheng instantly felt jealous. Su Weian ordered him to finish work quickly and make the payment. While Su Weian was venting about Gu Yunzheng's temper at the bar with Jiang Muying, she suddenly received a transfer message, a staggering 80,000 yuan, leaving her astonished.

At this moment, Li Wantong was with her official boyfriend, Elliott. Su Weian learned through her that Gu Yunzheng never had a girlfriend; he had always been intentionally acting, finding various ways to treat her well. Due to this revelation, Su Weian refused to accept the money, once again caught in conflicting emotions. Gu Yunzheng observed that Su Weian hadn't accepted the money and only knew the truth when Jiang Muying messaged Fang Mingfan.

Later, Su Weian took care of her aunt, Su Yuan. Although she wanted to hide the severity of her illness, Su Yuan figured it out. Su Yuan felt deeply upset and encouraged Su Weian to cherish the people around her, avoiding any regrets. Su Weian discovered a rehabilitation training booklet on her aunt's bedside table, realizing it was given by Gu Yunzheng.

On the other hand, Gu Yunzheng examined Su Weian's translation materials and noticed that, despite her apparent dislike for soda biscuits, she had actually finished the entire box. In the days that followed, the two had no interactions but missed each other.

Du Yuncheng called Su Weian to express concern. Su Weian, seeing Gu Yunzheng approaching, quickly found an excuse to hang up. Gu Yunzheng personally returned the stone, expressing his willingness to wait for Su Weian to figure things out. Meanwhile, Du Yuncheng suddenly visited Su's home and proposed a plan to arrange a luxury rehabilitation center for her aunt. He emphasized that Su Weian should not know about it.

As a result, Su's mother lied, claiming the neighbor recommended the nursing home at a discounted price. Su Weian, half-believing, took her aunt to visit the nursing home and was surprised by its luxurious yet affordable facilities. In reality, Du Yuncheng had arranged everything secretly, instructing his assistant to find the best caregivers and ensuring Su Yuan's recovery was undisturbed.

On the eve of the surgical operation, Fang Mingfan was still somewhat nervous and anxious. When he went out with Jiang Muying and saw a delivery guy, he sighed that if he couldn't become a doctor, being a courier was a fulfilling and straightforward job. Jiang Muying, knowing he hadn't completely overcome past shadows, took him to a judo hall, encouraging him to pull himself together and overcome his inner demons.

The next morning, as Fang Mingfan prepared to enter the operating room, he initially wanted Gu Yunzheng to assist him, but Gu Yunzheng had to go to a respiratory consultation. He sent He Xiaoguang to the operating room instead, letting Fang Mingfan prove himself and undermining He Xiaoguang's arrogance. Fortunately, the surgery went smoothly, and Fang Mingfan was delighted. He wanted to share the good news with Gu Yunzheng but found the hospital sealed off.

It turned out that many patients in the hospital's inpatient building tested positive for pulmonary plague, and Gu Yunzheng and others were trapped inside, not allowed to leave. Su Weian, upon learning this, was extremely worried. After careful consideration, she decided to pack her things and go find Gu Yunzheng, lying to her mother that she would be away on a business trip for a few days and reminding her to be cautious about respiratory diseases.

Episode 22 Recap

Su's mother noticed that her daughter seemed a bit off. Upon seeing the epidemic announcement posted online, she quickly called Du Yuncheng. Du Yuncheng immediately contacted Su Weian and, reluctantly, Su Weian had to admit that there was an incident at Hua Ren Hospital and she wanted to help. Du Yuncheng promised to keep Su's mother in the dark.

Due to the discovery of Yersinia pestis in patients at Hua Ren Hospital, they urgently implemented building lockdown measures, trapping Gu Yunzheng, who also lost his phone in the department, cutting off contact with the outside world. Su Weian and Fang Mingfan couldn't enter, so they had to wait outside. On the other hand, Du Yongsong, upon learning that his son was trapped in the respiratory department, was extremely worried. Du Yuncheng took the opportunity to offer assistance, pledging to mobilize the entire province's Jiehui warehouse to provide medication.

Gu Yunzheng learned that Fang Mingfan's surgery was successful, relieving his anxiety. Although he was concerned about Su Weian, he couldn't muster the courage to call her. Su Weian waited outside the hospital until nightfall. Du Yuncheng took her to dinner, and Su Weian realized that a hamburger joint could deliver food to the quarantine area. Using quick thinking, she suggested leaving a note on the hamburger packaging for Gu Yunzheng to call back.

Later, Du Yuncheng accompanied Su Weian outside the hospital, receiving a message from his assistant that Su Yuan was causing a scene. He had to rush back to the rehabilitation center. Su Yuan's dance syndrome worsened, but she insisted on trying the medicine. Du Yuncheng intentionally revealed that the HDQ39 project would be discontinued unless she signed a liability waiver. Su Yuan agreed to Du Yuncheng's conditions.

In "Healing Lover" Episode 22 stills, copyright protected. Gu Yunzheng heard nurses talking about a girl looking for him and saw familiar handwriting on the packaging. He quickly borrowed a nurse's phone to call Su Weian. The two communicated over the phone, looking at each other through the window. Su Weian cried tears of joy, and despite her emotions, Gu Yunzheng was happy that she cared for him, promising to protect himself and complete the battle.

In the neighboring bed, a patient coughed uncontrollably, accidentally knocking off Gu Yunzheng's protective goggles, and blood sprayed onto his face. Su Weian, hearing the sounds over the phone, realized that Gu Yunzheng became the first infected medical staff. Anxious to enter the hospital, she learned that Gu Yunzheng was on the list of close contacts but insisted on entering as a translator.

Due to Su Weian's insistence, Du Yuncheng had no choice but to agree, feeling uneasy. He felt that no matter what he did, they only cared about Gu Yunzheng. While resting, Su Weian heard that the 803 isolation ward had been thoroughly disinfected, rushing to find an empty, cold bed.

Initially, Gu Yunzheng had said that no one knew whether illness or accident would come first. So Su Weian reminisced about their shared experiences. Upon finding an empty bed, she emotionally broke down, regretting not confessing her feelings to Gu Yunzheng earlier. Just as she finished speaking, Gu Yunzheng walked out from behind the curtain. Su Weian was pleasantly surprised, and the joy of surviving the ordeal made her cherish their relationship even more. She decided not to be a deserter.

According to the 20th announcement from the city's epidemic prevention and control command, the closed control management area will be systematically lifted today. As of today, Hua Ren Medical University Affiliated Hospital has lifted the lockdown. Early in the morning, Su Weian dressed up and went on a date with Gu Yunzheng.

After Gu Yunzheng's surgery, he took Su Weian to the cinema, claiming to do something he had long wanted to do with his girlfriend – watching a horror movie. In the cinema, Gu Yunzheng pretended to be scared, naturally pulling Su Weian into his arms. Later, they held hands and watched the night sky.

Episode 23 Recap

Gu Yunzheng had previously asked neurosurgeon colleagues from various hospitals to pay attention to the patients they were treating for cerebral aneurysms. He wanted to check if any of these patients were part of the HDQ39 trial. The colleagues from the Second Hospital discovered that a patient named Tian Li had died due to a sudden rupture of a cerebral aneurysm, and he was indeed one of the HDQ39 trial participants, mirroring Su Yuan's situation.

Due to this revelation, Su Weian confirmed that her aunt's case was not an isolated incident and informed Du Yuncheng. However, Du Yuncheng had no intention of terminating the HDQ39 project. He had already signed a gambling agreement with the investors. If negative news affected the company's valuation, he would lose control of the company. The immediate priority was to suppress the incident, and Yang Wenbin assured that similar situations would not occur again.

Su Weian wanted to personally explain the situation to Professor Wen but always missed the chance to meet him. Gu Yunzheng advised her to make an appointment through registration, leading her to encounter Professor Wen. However, Yang Wenbin appeared unexpectedly and had security escort her out.

On that night, Gu Yunzheng learned about his girlfriend being mistreated. Overnight, he prepared a sample and had Su Weian take it to the testing department. In reality, he guided her to meet Professor Wang Lijuan, a "microbial detective" with only a college degree. Su Weian didn't understand Gu Yunzheng's intentions until she met Professor Wang Lijuan and the renowned expert Wu, realizing her passion for the medical profession.

Su Weian never imagined that Professor Wang Lijuan could make even Professor Wu humbly seek advice. Remembering that she had said only love could overcome uncertainties, Su Weian finally understood why Gu Yunzheng told her that not all doctors need to wield a scalpel. Subsequently, Su Weian found her graduation certificate and notebook, and her mother saw her daughter's dream of becoming a doctor. Using a clever tactic, Su's mother encouraged her to make a firm decision.

The neurology conference, where the results of the HDQ39 Phase III clinical trial were to be shared, was approaching. Gu Yunzheng, having participated in similar research, was invited as a cross-disciplinary researcher. He suggested Su Weian accompany him as a family member so that she could publicly inquire about aneurysms. Professor Wen had no choice but to answer.

However, hotel rooms were scarce, forcing Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian to stay in the same room. The two shared ambiguous and sweet moments. Gu Yunzheng still had work to do, and Su Weian observed him until she fell asleep. Gu Yunzheng, on the other hand, researched Huntington's disease, facing his fears of whether he could overcome the difficulties and the fear of losing Su Weian.

The next morning, Su Weian woke up in Gu Yunzheng's arms, listening to his sincere confession and feeling deeply moved. At the neurology conference, Professor Wen Yuliang reported on the research results of HDQ39, conveniently omitting any mention of adverse events. Su Weian, after watching her aunt's video, could no longer endure and questioned Professor Wen in front of the national experts about the three cases of ruptured aneurysms.

Professor Wen claimed that these patients had voluntarily withdrawn from the trial, and the aneurysm ruptures were unrelated to the experimental drugs. He presented their signed voluntary withdrawal agreements, surprising Su Weian. Gu Yunzheng comforted Su Weian to sit down while he, representing Hua Ren Hospital, questioned Professor Wen. He revealed the facts of the aneurysm patients' incidents, forcing Professor Wen to promise an investigation. Professor Wen announced the end of the lecture without answering any more questions.

Episode 24 Recap

After the conference, Wen Ran angrily accused Su Weian of being a dropout and lacking the qualifications to question Professor Wen. While Gu Yunzheng defended Su Weian, Professor Wen, accompanied by Yang Wenbin, emerged and offered them another chance to ask questions.

Gu Yunzheng stated that there was enough evidence to prove that patients had experienced ruptured brain aneurysms during the drug trial, regardless of the reasons behind signing voluntary withdrawal agreements. According to clear trial regulations, any occurrence of such events during the trial, whether related to the drug or not, must be reported immediately.

Professor Wen did not agree with Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian's perspective. He even questioned Su Weian's qualifications, stating that she needed scientific evidence to warrant the cessation of the trial and a public apology. Back in the office, Professor Wen questioned Yang Wenbin, who made excuses and promised to prevent similar incidents.

Su Weian, influenced by Professor Wen's words, decided to become a research assistant in the group. Gu Yunzheng reminded her to carefully consider the decision, emphasizing that a medical position requires thoughtful commitment and cannot be taken impulsively. Encouraged by Gu Yunzheng, Su Weian regained her composure and returned to the laboratory to prove herself.

Doctors at the hospital discussed Professor Gu's team's recruitment notice, attracting Wen Ran's attention. It was speculated that Su Weian would apply. As expected, Wen Ran encountered Su Weian in the library, where she mocked and belittled her, even expressing the intention to compete for the position.

Gu Yunzheng inquired about Su Weian's resume preparation, and she expressed confidence. Du Yuncheng, learning about Su Weian's exam preparation, arranged a laboratory for her, inviting her to be the lab head with top-notch equipment and researchers. Su Weian declined politely, revealing her romantic relationship with Gu Yunzheng.

Meanwhile, Gu Yunzheng transformed his home into a 24-hour cozy coffee library to help Su Weian prepare for the exam. Su Weian naturally moved in with Gu Yunzheng, officially starting their cohabitation. Jiang Muying admired their progress in love and hinted to Fang Mingfan to let her move into his rented house, but he remained oblivious, leading to her frustration.

In the following days, with Gu Yunzheng's help, Su Weian made significant progress. Wen Ran and Su Weian participated in interviews, but Su Weian's sincerity and confidence impressed the professors, allowing her to advance to the next round. Gu Yunzheng waited outside, confirmed the good news of Su Weian's interview success, and advised her to seize the opportunity in the next round, revealing the temperament of the chief examiner, Professor Wang Huanzhong.

Soon, the practical segment arrived, and Su Weian performed naturally and skillfully. Wen Ran occasionally glanced at Su Weian, and their states were noticed by Professor Wang Huanzhong. After the experiment, Su Weian accidentally turned off the UV lamp, causing Professor Wang Huanzhong to glance back at her. Gu Yunzheng assured Su Weian that this indicated approval of her actions, celebrating her successful passing of the interview.

Su Weian, writing her and Gu Yunzheng's names on the library card, enjoyed sweet and romantic moments with Gu Yunzheng. On the other hand, Wen Ran, after seeing the library card's names, secretly followed Su Weian, took photos of her date with Gu Yunzheng, and found an opportunity to visit Du's mother.

Episode 25 Recap

Wen Ran, under the pretext of visiting Du's mother, revealed that Su Weian had questionable academic and personal ethics, entering the research group through Gu Yunzheng's connections. Du's mother, originally wanting Wen Ran to secure the research assistant position to help her son, believed the information without verification and directly informed Du Yongsong, pretending to express concern about Gu Yunzheng being deceived.

Upon hearing this, Du Yongsong was furious and refused to let Gu Yunzheng act recklessly. He didn't care who got the research assistant position as long as it wasn't Su Weian, whom he considered a taboo. Rumors spread rapidly in the school, discussing Su Weian as an academic schemer, attempting to steal authorship, and facing forced withdrawal if unsuccessful, all while engaging in a public romance with Gu Yunzheng involving a transaction of power and favors.

Gu Yunzheng clarified the situation online, initiating a vote to request an additional test for Su Weian, intending to prove her abilities. Following this incident and Du Yongsong's interference, Wen Ran secured admission. Gu Yunzheng, in a confrontation with Professor Wang Huanzhong, accused Du Yongsong of abusing his authority by refusing to admit Su Weian, intensifying the conflict between father and son.

To maintain the reputation of Hua Ren, Gu Yunzheng proposed a fair additional test. Du Yun Cheng thought Gu Yunzheng failed to protect Su Weian, but everyone knew Wen Ran was the instigator. Gu Yunzheng reminded Du Yun Cheng to manage his ex-girlfriend properly. That night, Su Weian personally prepared a fruit plate for Gu Yunzheng to express her gratitude, determined not to disappoint him.

As the additional test approached, Wen Ran took the initiative to attack Su Weian, alleging that she entered through the back door and accusing her of attempting to steal authorship. Su Weian defended herself, conducting a fluorescence staining experiment to expose the flaws in Wen Ran's response, revealing the truth about academic fraud in the past.

Due to this revelation, Du Yongsong, suppressing his anger, ordered the HR department to investigate all papers published in the past five years for academic fraud, showing zero tolerance. Professor Wang Huanzhong assigned Gu Yunzheng to oversee the examination within their department, specifically targeting Wen Ran and He Xiaoguang, whom he found collaborating disgracefully.

Although Su Weian earned the job through her skills, rumors and gossip about her persisted. Wen Ran mocked Su Weian, calling her cunning. Su Weian retorted, pointing out Wen Ran's past indiscretions and reflecting on her own irony in defending Wen Ran back then. Wen Ran lost her doctoral degree, and an announcement was posted on the bulletin board. He Xiaoguang accused Gu Yunzheng of targeting him, making a deal that he would publicly apologize to Su Weian and leave Hua Ren Hospital if any issues with the trial project were found within a month.

Colleagues in the lab considered Su Weian a beneficiary of connections. Gu Yunzheng, in a public questioning session, assessed Su Weian's responses, earning the respect of everyone for her research abilities. Gu Yunzheng's stringent treatment of Su Weian created sympathy for her among colleagues, a method he used to protect her.

Fortunately, Su Weian understood Gu Yunzheng's good intentions. Back at home, she discussed breaking through the HDQ39 project with Gu Yunzheng, functioning both as a couple and as partners. Knowing that Wen Ran had been dismissed from Hua Ren Hospital, Du Yun Cheng made calculations and approached Wen Ran, offering her the position of marketing manager at Jiehui Company.

Wen Ran, thinking Du Yun Cheng wanted to reconcile, happily agreed and even proposed rekindling their romantic relationship. Du Yun Cheng, preoccupied with the public's negative perception of HDQ39, claimed to focus solely on work for the time being and deferred thoughts on their personal relationship. Wen Ran understood and was willing to wait for him.

Episode 26 Recap

Professor Wen discovered that three patients with adverse reactions had taken the HDQ39 experimental drug. He questioned Yang Wenbin about it, and Yang Wenbin claimed to have handled the situation and assured that it wouldn't affect the launch of the HDQ39 project. Professor Wen originally intended to report this, but Yang Wenbin obstructed it, not wanting the efforts of these years to go to waste. He revealed that Wen Ran had become an employee of Jiehui Company.

Concerned that his daughter might be implicated, Professor Wen, in turmoil, returned home and angrily accused Wen Ran of academic plagiarism, claiming she was being manipulated by Du Yuncheng. He ordered her to cut off all ties with Du Yuncheng. However, Wen Ran completely misunderstood Professor Wen's intentions and found him unreasonable, leading to a heated argument between father and daughter.

In the following days, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian worked together, researching the flaws in the HDQ39 project. They were professional partners during the day and an intimately close couple after work. Due to negative results in the first batch of experimental mice, Gu Yunzheng considered changing variables, thinking that Su Yuan's previous high blood pressure might be a key factor.

He Xiaoguang attempted to persuade Su Weian to abandon the experiment and stop opposing Jiehui Company, but Su Weian ridiculed his suggestion. Anxious about the slow progress of the experiment and fearing losing the bet in a month without results, Su Weian sought reassurance from Gu Yunzheng, who advised her to stay confident.

All the cells Su Weian cultivated were contaminated, and despite numerous searches, the source couldn't be found. She had to repeatedly clean the lab, spending days without progress. Su Weian, engrossed in the lab work, forgot to set an alarm and rushed back to the lab, eventually finding the source of contamination in an inconspicuous place, allowing the experiment to proceed smoothly.

One night, Su Weian got locked in the lab. Gu Yunzheng couldn't reach her and hurried to open the door. With Gu Yunzheng's help, Su Weian discovered issues in the experimental data of the second batch of hypertensive mice, confirming their suspicions that arterial rupture was indeed strongly correlated with HDQ39.

He Xiaoguang was anonymously reported, and the hospital issued a notice to dismiss him. He was accused of accepting kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies and charging exorbitant treatment fees for patients without surgical indications. Consequently, He Xiaoguang angrily confronted Gu Yunzheng, who presented the experiment report and demanded an apology to Su Weian. However, He Xiaoguang denied any wrongdoing.

Su Weian, aware of all the things Gu Yunzheng did for her and the information he concealed, decided to be open and honest after setting some ground rules. Later, Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng, hand in hand, publicly announced their romantic relationship to the department members, who were delighted.

Eager to meet the parents, Gu Yunzheng planned to visit Su's mother. Initially, Su's mother was worried about Gu Yunzheng's character and complained that her daughter entered into a relationship without informing her and was cohabiting. Gu Yunzheng introduced himself and expressed sincere feelings for Su Weian. During dinner, Su's mother inquired about their plans, and Gu Yunzheng was willing to consider Su Weian's thoughts. Su Weian, who hadn't thought about marriage, appreciated Gu Yunzheng's sincerity, especially when he served a bowl of tomato and fried egg noodles—the signature dish her father used to make. He aimed to continue that taste and protect Su Weian forever.

Seeing Gu Yunzheng's sincerity, Su's mother agreed to let her daughter cohabit with him. Hand in hand, they returned to their residence. The next morning, Su Weian and her mother accompanied her aunt for physical therapy, and Su Weian unexpectedly learned that the rehabilitation center was introduced by Du Yuncheng. Additionally, Su Yuan's signing of the withdrawal agreement was related to Du Yuncheng.

Episode 27 Recap

Due to the negative public opinion and impact of the HDQ39 project, shareholders gathered to discuss whether to market the drug. Most felt it was too risky, fearing that a similar incident would lead to intervention by the ethics committee. Shareholders had varied opinions, and Wen Ran, unable to bear it any longer, repeatedly spoke out in defense of Du Yuncheng.

Following this, Du Yuncheng emphasized the market potential of rare disease drugs in China, a vast blue ocean with enormous potential. He pointed out that only Jiehui Company had planned and laid out the groundwork for this in the Chinese pharmaceutical industry. If shareholders insisted on abandoning the market, the loss would be immense. One shareholder, upon hearing this, no longer opposed but expressed support for the successful market launch of the HDQ39 project. If it failed to go public, someone would have to take responsibility.

Seeing shareholders ostracizing Du Yuncheng, Wen Ran felt sorry for him and comforted him, telling him not to pay too much attention to those people. Su Weian questioned Du Yuncheng at Jiehui Company, asking why her aunt's video appeared in Professor Wen's presentation materials. Du Yuncheng shifted the blame to Assistant Lin, and Su Weian, trusting him, revealed evidence indicating the link between HDQ39 and ruptured aneurysms, hoping he would personally stop the research.

That evening, under Du Yuncheng's instructions, Wen Ran deliberately opened her father's email claiming to borrow the computer and forwarded all the test reports to Du Yuncheng. Professor Wen, upon seeing the test results submitted by Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian, had found answers and sincerely apologized to the two for her previous biases.

Su Weian learned that her aunt's video was given to Professor Wen by Du Yuncheng, and considering his response to her, she instantly understood what was going on. Professor Wen, noticing something unusual in her email, was very displeased with her daughter calculating against her father for Du Yuncheng. Wen Ran pleaded with her not to interfere with the market launch of HDQ39, but Professor Wen refused.

Professor Wen immediately arranged for her assistant to notify the media and hold a press conference. Wen Ran, anxious and uneasy, hoped her father would cancel this decision, stating that she would leave Jiehui Company willingly. Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng confronted Du Yuncheng, only to find out that he had known Su Weian's secret for a long time. Despite being grateful, Su Weian insisted on stopping the market launch of HDQ39, unwilling to sacrifice more lives for her own survival.

Meanwhile, at the press conference, Professor Wen publicly apologized to the patients for the project causing ruptured aneurysms. She vowed not to market the drug until the flawed drug mechanism was thoroughly corrected. After the conference, Wen Ran, full of disdain for Su Weian, mocked her for destroying the project and cutting off her own future. She believed Su Weian would face the consequences when the disease progressed with no cure available.

With no hope for the market launch of HDQ39, Du Yuncheng lost control of the company, and his family was extremely disappointed in him. Tired of the accusations from his grandfather and father, Du Yuncheng lashed out, expressing his disappointment in them and stating that his heart belonged to Gu Yunzheng alone. From that day on, he declared that he would never return to the old mansion.

Wen Ran, seeing patients protesting, blamed everything on Su Weian. Taking advantage of the patients' irrational emotions, she shifted the blame onto Su Weian. Faced with the numerous accusations and insults, Su Weian felt guilty and questioned whether she had done something wrong by destroying the hopes of many Huntington's chorea patients.

Gu Yunzheng applied to change the glioma project to Huntington's chorea. Teacher Wang Huanzhong couldn't understand why Gu Yunzheng would give up a soon-to-be-successful project for a new one with no foundation. Gu Yunzheng invited the teacher to dinner and mentioned that Wang Huanzhong researched glioma because his son died from the disease. He emphasized that he, too, was willing to sacrifice everything for his loved ones. Even if he couldn't find a cure for chorea in this lifetime, at least doing something was better than doing nothing.

Due to Gu Yunzheng's words, Wang Huanzhong fell into contemplation and no longer opposed his decision to change the project. On the other hand, Du Yongsong received disturbing news and felt disappointed in both his sons. Gu Yunzheng delegated the aftermath of his original project to Fang Mingfan, but Fang Mingfan applied to join Gu Yunzheng's research team. Coincidentally, Du Yuncheng approached Gu Yunzheng, asking why he chose Huntington's chorea for the project.

 

Episode 28 Recap

Gu Yunzheng has achieved great success in glioma research, but research on Huntington's chorea has come to a standstill globally. Therefore, Du Yongsong does not support his choice. He believes that Gu Yunzheng won't be able to publish papers or obtain promotions in the future. Because of this, Du Yongsong suppresses Gu Yunzheng's application to change the research topic and orders him to withdraw the request as soon as possible.

Before retiring, Professor Wen unconditionally donates all her research results to Su Weian, hoping she can outrun time and overcome the illness. Su Weian, holding a heavy box of materials, feels a mix of emotions. Leaving the hospital, she overhears doctors discussing Gu Yunzheng giving up his original topic and switching to research on Huntington's chorea.

This leaves Su Weian in deep self-blame and anxiety. She rushes to find Gu Yunzheng, urging him not to give up the results of glioma research, fearing it would be self-destructive. However, Gu Yunzheng emphasizes that his research on chorea is not only for Su Weian but also for the patients. He hopes Su Weian can support him, stating that every disease research needs someone to start and pave the way.

Su Weian, feeling sad, expresses that holding the belief of curing Huntington's chorea, every day will be lived in disappointment. Gu Yunzheng is willing to bear all the disappointment quickly, but Su Weian cannot convince herself. She is concerned about delaying Gu Yunzheng's future and suggests taking a break to think about their next steps.

On this day, Su Weian returns home with her luggage. Gu Yunzheng looks at the quiet living room and bedroom, suddenly feeling a sense of desolation. Regardless of the reason for Su Weian's actions, he won't easily give up. The next morning, Su Weian goes to the research group as usual, but her attitude towards Gu Yunzheng is much colder, deliberately keeping her distance.

Jiang Muying can't help but complain to Su Weian, feeling that Fang Mingfan is too busy and doesn't have time for their dates. The two plan a trip together, but unexpectedly, Gu Yunzheng and Fang Mingfan show up as uninvited guests during their hotel stay. Fang Mingfan takes Jiang Muying to the "Number One Bridge" to hang a love lock, leading to a series of hilarious incidents. Fortunately, the misunderstandings are resolved, and they end up kissing.

In contrast, the relationship between Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng remains strained. Jiang Muying, understanding Su Weian's thoughts, accuses her of being selfish for pushing Gu Yunzheng away. Gu Yunzheng takes the initiative to find Su Weian, taking her to a place near Dujiangyan. He tells her the story of Li Bing and his son building the Dujiangyan to conquer the natural barrier. Even in the worst case scenario, he is willing to accept it, facing the incurable disease with determination, and hopes she will join him.

The two couples have a warm and sweet dinner under the moonlight. Jiang Muying and Su Weian return to their rooms after eating, and Gu Yunzheng asks Su Weian to accompany him to visit someone the next morning. It turns out that Gu Yunzheng's mother's colleague, Uncle Wang, had already returned to China. He preserved some relics and handed them over to Gu Yunzheng, where he found several photos, including his childhood pictures and a family photo of Du Yuncheng. Behind the photos was a line that read, "We are a family," surprising Gu Yunzheng.

Since Du Yuncheng left the old mansion, he has not made a single phone call home. Du Yongsong is furious about this and blames him for not apologizing and fixing his mistakes. He accuses Du Yuncheng of evaporating from the human world and leaving the mess to Jiehui. Du's mother defends her son, feeling that Du Yongsong is unfairly treating him. Du's mother emphasizes that, no matter how outstanding Gu Yunzheng is, he is a Gu, not a Du. Even if he were Du Yongsong's biological son, falling in love with a girl with Huntington's chorea would not leave any descendants for the Du family.

Shocked by this revelation, Du Yongsong calls Gu Yunzheng to question him. He criticizes him and makes it clear that he will never agree to the change in the research direction. Gu Yunzheng leaves Du Yongsong speechless. Frustrated, Du Yongsong orders his assistant to bring all the laboratory personnel's data and then goes to visit Su's mother alone.

Episode 29 Recap

Du Yongsong couldn't convince Gu Yunzheng, so he personally visited Su's mother to directly state his purpose. He revealed that Su Weian carries the Huntington's chorea pathogenic gene, firmly opposing his son's relationship with Su Weian. Su's mother, shocked by this revelation, and angered by Du Yongsong's words, promptly showed him the door, tears streaming down her face.

When Su Weian returned home and heard her mother mentioning the day's events, she finally learned about the relationship between Du Yongsong and Gu Yunzheng. She then approached Gu Yunzheng to question him. Faced with Su Weian's accusations, Gu Yunzheng had no choice but to reveal the complex family issues, including his father's infidelity leading to the tragic death of Gu Xingchen. Learning the truth, Su Weian felt a sense of guilt and deep sympathy for Gu Yunzheng's ordeal.

That night, Su's mother, alone with her husband's portrait, poured out her sorrows with alcohol, recalling Su Weian's unusual behavior in previous years. Now, she finally understood the reasons behind it. Despite her husband being diagnosed with Huntington's chorea, Su's mother had tried to maintain an optimistic attitude, not revealing her sadness in front of him. She had hoped for a miracle, but the consecutive blows left her unable to cope. Su Weian, watching her mother cry in the corner, also felt uneasy. Su's mother hugged her daughter, expressing that they would face these difficult times together.

Gu Yunzheng returned home to confront Du Yongsong, questioning his qualifications to interfere in his relationship and criticize others. A heated argument erupted between father and son, with Du Yongsong believing he had done nothing wrong. However, when Gu Yunzheng produced the family photo, Du Yongsong was instantly stunned.

It turned out that when Gu Xingchen supported the construction of a bridge in Rakaya, Du Yongsong had an affair with Du Yuncheng's mother behind Gu Xingchen's back, resulting in the birth of Du Yuncheng, an illegitimate child. Later, when Gu Xingchen saw this family photo, he couldn't believe his beloved husband had an affair, and it happened before Gu Yunzheng was born.

This photo caused Gu Xingchen to have a mental breakdown, leading to the accident at the construction site. Du Yongsong was shocked to see these photos and felt regret and heartache. Gu Yunzheng accused Du Yongsong's chaotic personal life of costing his mother's life, deceiving and hurting his childhood, something he could never compensate or reconcile.

Gu Xingchen's death was a significant blow to Gu Yunzheng. Similarly, Du Yongsong, knowing the truth, felt ashamed to face his son. He couldn't understand why this photo was in Gu Xingchen's possession. Subsequently, Du Yongsong confronted his current wife, Cui Jie, who admitted that she wanted to replace Gu Xingchen as the third party. She sent the photo to Gu Xingchen without telling Du Yongsong. Not realizing her mistake, Cui Jie turned the blame back on Du Yongsong, accusing him of being cruel to her and her daughter, leading to such decisions. Her words left Du Yongsong angry and disappointed.

Although Su's mother knew Gu Yunzheng was a good person, she couldn't tolerate his family background, fearing it would cause a second injury to her daughter. Gu Yunzheng, in order to gain Su's mother's trust, followed her every day, showing various kindnesses. Unfortunately, Su's mother remained resolute in her opposition to their relationship, all because of Gu Yunzheng's father.

Despite several setbacks in front of Su's mother, Gu Yunzheng's relationship with Su Weian remained strong and affectionate. Su Weian's aunt, Su Yuan, was still in poor health, with her temper worsening day by day. Even Su's mother and daughter were reluctant to see her. Gu Yunzheng came up with a plan. Under the pretext of going downstairs to relax, he arranged an outdoor violin concert for Su Yuan. This reminded Su Yuan of her glorious past playing the violin under the spotlight, bringing mixed emotions.

These violin-playing girls were Su Yuan's students. They reunited and reminisced, gradually improving Su Yuan's mood. This successful effort allowed Gu Yunzheng to win Su's mother's favor and brought him a step closer to gaining her approval. Due to tight research funding, Su Weian was very frugal in the experimental process. Seeing an online announcement, Gu Yunzheng decided to apply for the Dim Light Research Fund.

Episode 30 Recap

The Dim Light Research Fund belongs to the Rare Disease Charity Program, and its founder, Cao Yong, is a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and the vice president of a Fortune Global 500 company. Since his illness, he has been promoting research on rare diseases in China. Therefore, this fund is specifically used for rare disease research projects. It's for this reason that Gu Yunzheng assigned Su Weian to handle the application for the Dim Light Research Fund. Although the fund may not be particularly large, it is sufficient for them to initiate the research project on Huntington's chorea.

Du Yuncheng suddenly returned to China to find Wen Ran upon hearing that several directors of Jiehui Company had transferred their shares to Maiteng. Due to the absence of a leader, the company was finding it difficult to sustain. Du Yuncheng instructed Wen Ran to do two things: first, hire He Xiaoguang at a high salary, and second, apply for the Dim Light Research Fund.

Su Weian initially lacked confidence in securing the research opportunity, but Gu Yunzheng assured her of his full support and even devised a detailed training plan. In the days that followed, Su Weian worked tirelessly day and night on her project, submitting proposals and simulating speeches with full confidence, only to be repeatedly discouraged by Gu Yunzheng during his strict training sessions.

Under Gu Yunzheng's rigorous training, Su Weian found it unbearable, but he transformed into a considerate person, taking care of her in every aspect of life. The next morning, Gu Yunzheng personally provided systematic training for Su Weian and took her to the mall to choose suitable clothes.

Passing by a bridal shop, Su Weian stopped, and Gu Yunzheng promised to make her the most beautiful bride. However, Su Weian didn't dare to dream about marriage. On the other hand, when Su's mother saw the promotional brochure for the chorea rehabilitation exchange meeting, she couldn't help but investigate. She was moved by Gu Yunzheng's sincere speech. Gu Yunzheng expressed his dedication to researching drugs for chorea, assuring that no matter what the future holds, he will accompany Su Weian all the way.

After the exchange meeting, Gu Yunzheng confessed his true feelings to Su's mother, hoping she could trust him to take care of her daughter. Touched by Gu Yunzheng's patience and sincerity, Su's mother agreed to let the two of them date. Subsequently, Su's mother brought Gu Yunzheng home, personally cooking a table full of food for him and Su Weian, signifying her approval of this prospective son-in-law.

The Dim Light Project press conference was held as scheduled. Su Weian, accompanied by Gu Yunzheng and Fang Mingfan, attended with some nervousness. Unexpectedly, Wen Ran, representing Jiehui Pharmaceutical, took the initiative to present their project, and the research topic and framework were exactly the same as what they had prepared. Su Weian found this situation perplexing. Fang Mingfan noticed that He Xiaoguang was in Jiehui's research team, indicating he was the mastermind behind Jiehui Company.

In the face of this situation, Su Weian could only bite the bullet and go on stage. Initially, she intended to explain the project as usual, but the audience had lost patience, frequently interrupting her speech. Fortunately, Gu Yunzheng was prepared for any mishap and advised Su Weian to directly reveal her carrying the pathogenic gene for Huntington's chorea.

Because Su Weian could empathize with the suffering of patients, her sincerity moved the audience. In the end, her project was chosen to receive the Dim Light Research Fund. Du Yuncheng didn't care much about this small fund; the reason for applying to Dim Light was simply to announce his return.

Su Weian and Gu Yunzheng, along with others, confronted Du Yuncheng and mocked them for copying and pasting their project. However, the real competition would start in the subsequent research. As the new project kicked off, everyone became enthusiastically involved, with Gu Yunzheng noticing that Su Weian was cutting costs and neglecting experimental equipment. Team members complained about the heavy workload and lack of rest. Su Weian intervened, stopping all work for the moment and tirelessly staying in the lab. Concerned for Su Weian, Gu Yunzheng helped her with the experiments, ensuring she could rest and relax.

Episode 31 Recap

Although Gu Yunzheng and the team secured the initial project funding, ongoing research and development funds remained a persistent issue. Therefore, Gu Yunzheng approached Professor Wang Huanzhong, hoping he could help introduce several pharmaceutical companies. In the following days, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian worked together daily, and their relationship continued to grow warmer.

Gu Yunzheng reported the research results of the Huntington's project's animal experimentation phase to the institute's leaders, earning applause from everyone. As time passed quickly, approaching the Chinese New Year, Gu Yunzheng wanted Su Weian to accompany him to visit his grandfather. However, Su Weian didn't agree and suggested that they each go home for the New Year.

Initially, Su Weian planned to bring her aunt home for the New Year, but Su Yuan insisted on staying at the recuperation center. Su's mother decided to wait until after the New Year to visit. On the contrary, Gu Yunzheng sneaked into his grandfather's house at night to "steal flowers" but was caught red-handed. In the end, he moved the orchid that caused his grandfather heartache.

The next morning, Gu Yunzheng, carrying various gifts such as flowers and fruits, visited Su's family, deciding to spend the New Year with Su's mother and Su Weian. Su's mother was delighted by Gu Yunzheng's gestures, and the more she saw, the more she liked this prospective son-in-law. However, just as they were about to exchange a few more words, the doorbell rang. It was Du Laoye, who brought substantial gifts and even brought a maid to help with chores.

Not only that, Su's mother's dance partner, Uncle Zhao, also personally delivered fish to the house. Su Weian, sensitive to the different relationship between him and her mother, insisted on keeping him for the New Year. On New Year's Eve, the Su family had a joyful and harmonious atmosphere, while the Du family of three had a particularly quiet and estranged New Year, ending on an unhappy note.

Fang Mingfan gathered the courage to visit Jiang's family for the New Year, only to be surrounded by questions from various aunts. When they learned that Fang Mingfan was just an ordinary doctor, not yet a department head, and hadn't even bought a house, they started gossiping. Faced with everyone's questioning and criticism, Fang Mingfan felt embarrassed and humiliated, making up an excuse to leave.

Jiang Muying felt sorry for Fang Mingfan and angrily rebuked her relatives, stating that they shouldn't behave in such a manner. She emphasized that a house was nothing compared to Fang Mingfan's medical dreams. Fortunately, at the last moment, Fang Mingfan went back to find Jiang Muying and promised her parents that he would protect her and not let her suffer any harm.

Du Yuncheng worked overtime at the company and asked He Xiaoguang to tamper with experimental result data. He Xiaoguang suggested a thorough investigation, which was rejected, leaving him with no choice but to comply. Su's mother prepared gifts for Su Weian to take to Du Laoye's house but received a call from the sanatorium, learning that Su Yuan had fallen.

Su Weian rushed there with her mother, but Su Yuan refused to see anyone and insisted on participating in Su Weian's clinical trial. Although Su Weian could understand her aunt's pain, she had to tell her that her current physical condition was not suitable for being a trial subject, secretly determined to accelerate the research pace.

Because the Phase II clinical trial required tens of millions in funding, everyone was at a loss. Coincidentally, a representative from a pharmaceutical company approached Gu Yunzheng, claiming they wanted to invest in their project. However, as Gu Yunzheng interacted with them, he became increasingly suspicious and saw through their scheme, terminating the negotiation. As expected, the representative was acting under Wen Ran's instructions to get hold of their experimental plans.

Later, Gu Yunzheng mentioned this to Su Weian, who felt ashamed of Wen Ran's actions but worried that the lack of funds might delay the experiment. Gu Yunzheng reassured Su Weian not to worry; he would handle the funding issue. He then called various pharmaceutical companies, but the calls were abruptly ended before he could say much. Due to these challenges, Gu Yunzheng found no willing investors for Huntington's chorea research. In desperation, he reluctantly planned to sell the house left by his mother.

Episode 32 Recap

Gu Yunzheng entrusted a real estate agent to sell the house and requested to take the walls painted by himself and his mother. Due to the lack of progress in He Xiaoguang's research team, Du Yuncheng, desperate for a shortcut, resorted to unethical means. He demanded He Xiaoguang to use prohibited genetic technology to replicate foreign forbidden drugs. Aware of the serious legal consequences, He Xiaoguang eventually parted ways with Du Yuncheng.

Later, he informed Wen Ran of this incident, stating that Du Yuncheng had gone completely insane and was willing to break the law to win over Gu Yunzheng. Wen Ran was skeptical and tested the truth; however, she chose to believe Du Yuncheng after her inquiries. Nevertheless, Du Yuncheng was determined and had no intention of turning back; now, he believed it was either success or death.

Frustrated by the slow progress of the research, Du Yuncheng's assistant explained that convincing patients to participate in clinical trials was not easy. Considering Huntington's disease is a rare condition, the first batch of enrolled patients experienced adverse effects, making it too risky to proceed. Despite this, Du Yuncheng insisted on recruiting another group for experimentation.

Shortly after, a caregiver from the sanatorium called Du Yuncheng, revealing that Su Yuan wanted to undergo euthanasia in Switzerland. Since the sanatorium had no other options, they restrained Su Yuan. Su Yuan entrusted the caregiver to contact Du Yuncheng, believing he could help her. Du Yuncheng surreptitiously provided Su Yuan with a special drug for Huntington's disease.

Concerned about her daughter's financial difficulties, Su's mother decided to use her savings to help Su Weian, greatly moving her. When Du Laoye discovered that Gu Yunzheng was planning to sell his mother's house, he learned about the team's financial struggles. As a result, Du Laoye decided to sell his old house, becoming Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian's grandpa, living in Gu Yunzheng's house.

Du Grandpa not only alleviated the urgent financial situation but also cooked breakfast and tonic soup for Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian. However, despite his enthusiasm, the food didn't taste great. Nevertheless, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian pretended to enjoy it, generously praising him. Due to this encouragement, Du Grandpa became more motivated to cook, resulting in Su Weian having a nosebleed from consuming various supplements.

In reality, Grandpa had good intentions, and he worried about passing away early, fearing he might not hold his grandson. One night, Su Weian received a call about her aunt's accident. Su Yuan's condition rapidly deteriorated, and she was rushed to Renan Hospital. Gu Yunzheng immediately prepared for surgery, but before the next steps, Su Yuan's heartbeat ceased, and she passed away despite resuscitation efforts.

Su Weian was devastated, and with Gu Yunzheng accompanying her, they went to the sanatorium. Gu Yunzheng examined a cabinet and found a bag of pills. Hearing that Du Yuncheng had recently visited Su Yuan, Su Weian angrily went to confront him. However, Du Yuncheng denied any involvement, disappointing her deeply. Du Yuncheng instructed his assistant to block the information, ensuring no one else would know about the incident.

The family gathered to pack Su Yuan's belongings. Suddenly, Su Weian uncontrollably smashed things. To avoid worrying her mother, she falsely claimed it was due to lack of rest. However, Su Weian knew it was a sign of an episode, and Gu Yunzheng also had a vague understanding, although he didn't show it.

Su Weian exposed the incident of a lethal reaction to the Huntington's disease drug developed by Jiehui Pharmaceuticals on the internet. This caused an uproar, with journalists besieging Du Yuncheng for the truth. Indirectly, it made it challenging for Gu Yunzheng to find clinical trial participants for his research. Seeing Su Weian immersed in the grief of her aunt's death, Gu Yunzheng took her to eat hot pot dumplings to divert her attention.

However, during this process, Su Weian accidentally dropped a dumpling, and Gu Yunzheng, perceiving an ominous feeling, chose not to mention it. Regardless of the future outcome, they cherished the present moment. Gu Yunzheng, accompanied by Fang Mingfan, went door-to-door to visit families with individuals suffering from Huntington's disease, but unfortunately, they were rejected by everyone.

 

Episode 33 Recap

Gu Yunzheng visited several patients' homes only to be turned away. Eventually, he learned that they had purchased the "Aishien Ding" special drug. To infiltrate the patients' chat group, he posed as a family member. The company claimed to have the latest research from foreign laboratories, selling at half the price after market release. Gu Yunzheng, upon reviewing their research reports, discovered many inconsistencies.

A member of the experimental team applied to purchase measuring cups and revealed that Su Weian had accidentally broken two of them last month. Gu Yunzheng felt a heaviness in his heart upon hearing this. The fraudulent company organized a patient propaganda event for the special drug. Gu Yunzheng, accompanied by Fang Mingfan, attended and exposed their deceitful practices. The police intervened promptly, preventing patients from suffering losses.

As today was Gu Yunzheng's birthday, Su Weian personally baked a cake, preparing all the birthday gifts for every year of his remaining life. After blowing out the candles, Gu Yunzheng, curious about Su Weian's wish, learned that she hoped to expedite the development of a drug for Huntington's disease. This became their shared goal.

Gu Yunzheng couldn't sleep all night, thinking about Su Weian's recent changes and, due to the gift she prepared for him, was now certain that she had entered the symptomatic phase. Consequently, Gu Yunzheng arranged for a Möbius ring designed by someone to propose to Su Weian. However, Su Weian took him to an aquarium for their date first.

After careful consideration, Su Weian admitted to her symptomatic condition and volunteered to be the first test subject. Gu Yunzheng found it difficult to accept initially, but Su Weian was determined. She expressed that medical progress required brave patients and their families.

At this moment, Gu Yunzheng received a call from the hospital. Seeing the devastated appearance of the patients' families, he felt uneasy. After a sleepless night, Gu Yunzheng took out the ring he designed and proposed to Su Weian. Unable to convince her otherwise, he wanted to take responsibility for her remaining life, becoming the person who signed the informed consent for the drug trial.

Gu Yunzheng gathered all the patients' families and announced his proposal to his girlfriend. He expressed his strong desire for the drug development to succeed, intending to accompany Su Weian for a longer time. Touched by Gu Yunzheng's story, the families offered their trust and volunteered for the trial.

On the other hand, Du Yuncheng learned about Su Weian participating in the trial and confronted Gu Yunzheng aggressively. Gu Yunzheng accused Du Yuncheng of being a disgrace to scientific research. If not for him tarnishing the research environment, Su Weian wouldn't have rushed to be a test subject upon symptom onset. Gu Yunzheng exposed Du Yuncheng's role in the drug causing the death of Su Weian's aunt, Su Yuan, warning him to stay away from Su Weian.

The ethics committee rejected the clinical approval of HDQ40. Jiehui Pharmaceuticals' stock price continuously hit the limit down, with shareholders starting to withdraw funds, demanding Du Yuncheng immediately resign as CEO and hold a press conference to explain the situation. Naturally, Du Yuncheng refused, ordering the CFO to allocate funds for research. The CFO looked troubled, as frequent disbursements without board approval would be difficult to justify. Du Yuncheng, in a fit of rage, told him to find a solution.

As the police began investigating Jiehui's research department, Du Yuncheng, seeing the situation unraveling, planned with Lin Zhu to sell the serum from Jiehui's lab to foreign laboratories, raising a substantial amount of funds to escape abroad. When Wen Ran was preparing to leave the company, she accidentally overheard this shocking plan. Reflecting on He Xiaoguang's words to her, she was horrified to realize that Du Yuncheng was indeed involved in illegal activities.

Episode 34 (Ending) Recap

Wen Ran was caught eavesdropping by Du Yuncheng, plunging into deep fear. Nevertheless, she pretended to be composed and suggested that Du Yuncheng take her away, skillfully deceiving him with her acting prowess. Returning home, Wen Ran sought help from Professor Wen, assuming that Du Yuncheng's current research was an upgraded version of HDQ39. However, she discovered that he was counterfeiting prohibited foreign drugs, leading to fatal consequences.

Du Yuncheng had become obsessed, leaving Wen Ran bewildered. She sought Su Weian's help, hoping Su Weian could persuade Du Yuncheng to stop. Despite her vanity, Wen Ran never intended to engage in morally reprehensible actions. Du Yuncheng planned to sell the lab serum to foreign labs, posing a significant threat to national security by leaking Chinese genetic information. Su Weian suggested a plan to avoid alerting him.

On the day of the transaction, Wen Ran followed Du Yuncheng to a secluded warehouse. Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian, in coordination with the police, apprehended Du Yuncheng. However, Du Yuncheng showed no remorse, claiming he would do anything for Su Weian. He accused Gu Yunzheng of stealing his family and ruining his happiness.

Gu Yunzheng exposed Cui Jie's identity as a third party, asserting that he was the true unfortunate child. Du Yuncheng, recalling his childhood when his mother forced him to yield and endure grievances, suddenly realized his past submissive behavior. Disheartened, he was incarcerated and eventually sentenced to fifteen years in prison.

Cui Jie visited her son in prison, but Du Yuncheng mercilessly accused her of using him as a pawn for her own gain. Disappointed in his mother, Du Yuncheng left her in deep self-blame and sorrow. Packing her bags, she bid farewell to Du Yongsong, expressing her departure from this home, where she had no intention of harming Gu Xingchen, starting from that day.

Meanwhile, Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian were preparing for their wedding, distributing invitations to everyone in the hospital except Du Yongsong, leaving him particularly dejected. Du Yongsong realized the harm he had caused to Gu Yunzheng and hoped father and son could reconcile. However, Gu Yunzheng remained cold, unable to forgive him at least for the time being.

On the eve of the wedding, Su Weian felt inexplicably nervous. Gu Yunzheng reassured her that as long as she was willing to marry him, these would be beautiful memories of the future. Soon, the couple held a grand wedding, dancing hand in hand in front of friends and family, moving everyone to tears.

Gu Yunzheng passionately confessed to Su Weian, and they exchanged rings. During the bouquet moment, Su Weian handed the flowers to her mother, then passed her mother's hand to Uncle Zhao, urging them to be happy and continue their own happiness. Du Yongsong, uninvited, watched from a distance, not wanting to disturb the festive atmosphere. The joy of this wedding was unrelated to him, and he walked away with a bag of wedding candies, lonely and forlorn.

Several years later, the drug developed by Gu Yunzheng and Su Weian received recognition. Students talked about Su Weian as an extraordinary person. During a presentation on the research results of the Huntington's disease drug, Gu Yunzheng thanked all the patients and their families who sacrificed for the breakthrough, especially his wife, Su Weian.

Amidst thunderous applause, the doors opened slowly, and Gu Yunzheng seemed to see Su Weian in a long dress, forever the most beautiful image in his memory. On a beach, Gu Yunzheng and his son played and frolicked, discussing the significance of the name "Gu Yusu," symbolizing that mom and dad are always together.
