Episode 25 recap: Difficult Scripture.
Han Dong supported Nan Chu's return to the stage as a dancer, showcasing himself. However, he stated that this was his only chance, and whether Nan Chu could step onto the stage of the grand theater depended on her own abilities. Yu Qi Lei returned home happily, wanting to surprise Mi Lan and Miao Miao, but to his disappointment, they were both not at home.
Yu Qi Lei tidied up the house and sat in the bedroom for a while. Then Mi Lan called him, asking Yu Qi Lei to pick up Miao Miao from her extracurricular class. Yu Qi Lei went to pick up Miao Miao, and although the teacher didn't recognize him, Miao Miao was extremely happy. Yu Qi Lei brought Miao Miao back home and busied himself with cooking, while Mi Lan didn't want Yu Qi Lei to tire himself out, so she took off his apron and started cooking herself.
Mi Lan told Yu Qi Lei about Miao Miao's situation and asked him to talk to Miao Miao because her relationship with her classmates had been deteriorating lately, and she refused to reveal the reason. Miao Miao and Yu Qi Lei sang a birthday song together and cut the cake. Miao Miao insisted on eating the cake and refused to eat her meal, so Yu Qi Lei had no choice but to bring out the gift first. Miao Miao became happy only after that, but she still didn't want to eat.
Seeing Miao Miao unhappy, Yu Qi Lei allowed her to play for a while and planned to talk to her after dinner. Miao Miao revealed that she told her classmates at the extracurricular class that they didn't believe her father was a firefighter and thought he was a bad person. This made Yu Qi Lei realize that he hadn't attended the extracurricular class, leading to misunderstandings among the classmates, so Miao Miao didn't want to go there anymore.
Understanding Miao Miao's concerns, Yu Qi Lei agreed to take her to the extracurricular class the next day, and Miao Miao requested him to wear a firefighter uniform to accompany her. After putting Miao Miao to sleep, Yu Qi Lei called Lin Lu Xiao, hoping to borrow a set of firefighter uniform from someone he knew.
Since Lin Lu Xiao didn't know anyone, he advised Yu Qi Lei to buy a set of firefighter uniform from the fire equipment station to solve the immediate problem. Yu Qi Lei didn't wear the firefighter uniform to school, which made Miao Miao unhappy. So Yu Qi Lei promised Miao Miao that he would definitely wear the firefighter uniform when picking her up.
When Yu Qi Lei left the extracurricular class, there happened to be a team of construction workers knocking on a wall nearby, accidentally causing a load-bearing wall to collapse, trapping the teacher and students inside. Upon seeing a fire truck heading towards the vicinity of the extracurricular class, Yu Qi Lei immediately ran back to help and participated in rescuing the trapped students from the ruins.
While rescuing people, Yu Qi Lei called out for Miao Miao. After finally finding Miao Miao, he discovered another trapped student by his side. Yu Qi Lei really wanted to save Miao Miao, but he couldn't ignore the other person. After ensuring that Miao Miao was still safe, he rescued the other student first.
After rescuing the others, Yu Qi Lei wanted to go back to save Miao Miao, but unexpectedly, the building collapsed again, frightening both him and Mi Lan. Yu Qi Lei made every effort to rescue Miao Miao from the rubble, while Mi Lan was extremely scared, holding Miao Miao tightly and nervously comforting her.
Mi Lan was angry because Yu Qi Lei saved others first and didn't immediately rescue Miao Miao. She ignored Yu Qi Lei and took Miao Miao to the hospital. When Miao Miao returned, Mi Lan tried to put her to sleep, but Miao Miao wanted Yu Qi Lei to accompany her. Mi Lan was angry with Yu Qi Lei, but she still allowed him to enter the room and be with Miao Miao.
Miao Miao didn't blame Yu Qi Lei. She understood what Yu Qi Lei had told her, that firefighters should rescue the people closest to them first. She could understand Yu Qi Lei, but Mi Lan wasn't very happy. Miao Miao knew that Mi Lan had been angry with Yu Qi Lei and sometimes cried alone. She could only ask Yu Qi Lei to spend more time with Mi Lan.
After Miao Miao fell asleep, Yu Qi Lei wanted to have a serious talk with Mi Lan. However, Mi Lan couldn't understand why Yu Qi Lei couldn't come back to this family. Yu Qi Lei explained that when he chose to become a firefighter, he also struggled with balancing career and family, but it was extremely difficult, and he still hadn't resolved the issue until now.
Yu Qi Lei promised Mi Lan that once things calmed down at the station, he would find a way to transfer back. However, Mi Lan no longer believed Yu Qi Lei because he had made the same promise three years ago and still hadn't returned. Yu Qi Lei returned to the peace station and quietly looked at a family photo, which happened to be discovered by Lin Lu Xiao.
Knowing that the emotions of everyone at the station had been unstable lately, Lin Lu Xiao arranged a gathering, inviting a few people who were on leave to go out for dinner and drinks. Nan Chu prepared to record a video of the Dream Dance Society for Deng Yi to watch, but unexpectedly, her partner accidentally caused her to fall during the recording, delaying the completion of their video for a while.
I think Mi Lan should try to understand Yu Qilei more. Can he not worry about Miaomiao? Miaomiao is not only your child but also his child. As a firefighter and structural engineer, Yu Qilei has assessed that Miaomiao is temporarily safe.
He definitely needs to rescue other children who are closer to him. Otherwise, those children would be in danger. If Old Yu chooses to save his own child, what if another child has another accident? How can Old Yu explain to the parents of the other child?
I really want to say, can the spouses/girlfriends of firefighters please try to understand the nature of their partner's profession?
