Episode 21 recap: A Good Show.
Lou Ming Ye stated that he didn't know how Lin Lu Xiao had been assessed before, but this time, Liu Ru Yi ranked last in both the mock exam and the theoretical exam, proving that Liu Ru Yi's competency was insufficient. Liu Ru Yi was not convinced by Lou Ming Ye's words and argued that saving lives didn't depend on scores. He mentioned that when he was Lou Ming Ye's master, he taught Lou Ming Ye in the same way and didn't see any problem.
Upon hearing Liu Ru Yi's response, Lou Ming Ye angrily expressed that Liu Ru Yi's issue was not with his competency but with his attitude. Lou Ming Ye scolded Liu Ru Yi and questioned him and Shao Yi Jiu whether this was the conduct of a peaceful station, making Liu Ru Yi think that Lou Ming Ye was criticizing Lin Lu Xiao. Lou Ming Ye advised him not to stray from the topic.
Lou Ming Ye firmly told Liu Ru Yi that his biggest problem was the theoretical aspect, making Liu Ru Yi understand that relying solely on technical skills without using his brain wouldn't enable him to save people. Lou Ming Ye instructed Liu Ru Yi and Shao Yi Jiu to each write a self-assessment after reprimanding them.
Unable to bear Lou Ming Ye, Liu Ru Yi directly called Lin Lu Xiao, expressing his inability to tolerate Lou Ming Ye and urging Lin Lu Xiao to quickly transfer him back. Yu Qi Lei snatched the phone and reassured Liu Ru Yi that there was no issue and told Lin Lu Xiao not to worry, then went to appease Liu Ru Yi's emotions.
Lin Lu Xiao went to the Peaceful Station to find Lou Ming Ye, who happened to be cleaning the fire truck. When Lou Ming Ye saw Lin Lu Xiao, he understood that he had come as a mediator. Lin Lu Xiao asked Lou Ming Ye not to be dismissive, while Lou Ming Ye pointed out Lin Lu Xiao's lack of attention to detail. He also expressed his goal of building a firefighting team capable of handling cutting-edge technology.
Upon learning of Lou Ming Ye's thoughts, Lin Lu Xiao simply stated that if there was any area where he needed assistance, he could reach out to him anytime. After Lin Lu Xiao left, he went to observe Nan Chu's acting class. Nan Chu was being scolded by Professor Jin for not understanding acting. Professor Jin told Nan Chu to reflect on whether acting was truly suitable for her before attending his class again. However, Nan Chu was determined and resolute in overcoming her difficulties and learning acting well.
Lin Lu Xiao mentioned that he didn't understand acting, but from what he saw just now, he felt that Nan Chu was the female lead, which made Nan Chu very happy. Nan Chu's performance hadn't yet reached the desired state, and Professor Jin was dissatisfied, continuously reminding Nan Chu to fully immerse herself in the character.
After the class, Lin Lu Xiao took Nan Chu to see Yang Zhen Gang's rehabilitation. Yang Zhen Gang felt embarrassed and asked Lin Lu Xiao to come less often in order not to interfere with his dating life.
Xi Gu was temporarily called away by Shen Guang Zong, and Nan Chu couldn't find anyone to accompany her for the evening performance. So, Lin Lu Xiao asked Nan Chu if he could go and watch her performance.
Upon arriving at the venue, Lin Lu Xiao learned that Professor Jin wanted each student to bring a familiar person to help them relax and perform in front of someone they knew. Concerned that his presence on stage might affect Nan Chu's performance, Lin Lu Xiao hesitated, but Nan Chu insisted.
Nan Chu told Lin Lu Xiao to imagine himself as Mu Tou, and only then was he willing to go on stage. Unexpectedly, the performance scenario provided by Professor Jin was so similar to their real situation. Nan Chu had always held deep gratitude for Lin Lu Xiao, who had saved her, but she never had a chance to express her feelings for him. Seizing this opportunity to perform, she used her dance to release all her emotions.
Professor Jin was very pleased with Nan Chu's performance. He explained that her performance was a success because she empathized with her character. He advised Nan Chu to remember the feeling she had today, to always maintain that confidence, and to perform future roles well. Ma Zong arranged for Lin Qi to learn dancing, intending to capitalize on his good looks and promote him as a popular idol. However, Lin Qi strongly objected to this arrangement.
Lin Qi was unwilling to cooperate, so Ma Zong revealed that he initially signed Lin Qi not because of his musical talent but because of his looks. Lin Qi was taken aback by the realization that Ma Zong didn't value his musical abilities at all. Unable to continue with Ma Zong's arrangements, Lin Qi declared that he would quit.
After Lin Qi impulsively left, Ma Zong sent him a contract, demanding five million as compensation for terminating the contract. Otherwise, Lin Qi would have to follow the company's arrangement and learn dancing. Frustrated by his inability to produce five million, Lin Qi sought solace in drinking with Jiang Ge, pouring out his grievances.
Jiang Ge berated Lin Qi for signing contracts without reading them and accepting whatever was offered. Then, he decided to help Lin Qi and went directly to find Ma Zong. The National Firefighting Competition was about to begin. When Lou Ming Ye came to submit approval documents, Meng Guo Hong informed him about the competition and advised him to prepare well.
While everyone was worried about the upcoming competition, Fang Ban Zhang asked for Qi Huo to inspect the vehicle. However, Qi Huo didn't show up for half a day. Fang Ban Zhang went out to look for him and accidentally overheard Qi Huo talking on the phone with Meng Guo Hong, revealing that Qi Huo was Meng Guo Hong's son.
