Episode 24 recap: Gu Ruan Ruan asked Fu Xizhou for a divorce.
Zhu Jiu went to see the doctor with her aunt. The doctor said that using a liver from a direct relative might be able to save her grandmother's life. Her aunt then asked the doctor about the risks of liver donation, as she was concerned about her own health condition. Zhu Jiu pleaded with her aunt, hoping that she could save their grandmother.
In the evening, after Zhu Jiu returned home, she busied herself with washing her grandmother's feet. Her grandmother felt warm-hearted having Zhu Jiu by her side to help take care of her. Her grandmother asked Zhu Jiu if the test results had come out, but Zhu Jiu didn't dare to tell her the truth and could only say that the results hadn't come out yet. Her grandmother seemed to sense that Zhu Jiu was lying and then made an excuse to go upstairs, saying she was feeling a bit tired.
Zhu Jiu received a phone call from Fu Yun Shen and learned that things were not going smoothly on their side as well. Zhu Jiu comforted Fu Yun Shen, but she hadn't told him about her grandmother's condition yet. After all, Fu Yun Shen still had things to take care of, so Zhu Jiu didn't want to distract him. After hanging up the phone, Zhu Jiu called her former colleague and asked for their help.
Zhou Zhi Zhi dropped Gu Ruan Ruan off at home, and Gu Ruan Ruan asked her not to tell her parents about the argument between her and Fu Yun Shen for the time being. Fu Xizhou called Gu Ruan Ruan, but she didn't want to answer the call. She only sent a message to Fu Yun Shen, saying that she wanted some time to think things through. When Gu Ruan Ruan got home, she saw the inquiries she had posted online, and everyone thought she was being unrealistic.
Early in the morning, Fu Yun Shen was woken up by a phone call, and he learned that the other party was willing to reconcile. This was good news for them. Fu Yun Shen also obtained some important leads, hoping they would help in their ongoing investigation. The results of Zhu Jiu and her aunt's compatibility test came out, and only her aunt was a match for her grandmother. However, her aunt became anxious because she was worried that removing a part of her liver would affect her own health. The doctor could only say that there would be some risks. Her aunt even thought about finding another source for the liver. Zhu Jiu could sense that her aunt didn't want to donate her liver to their grandmother, but her aunt said she also wanted to save her mother. However, if she stayed in the hospital, her son wouldn't have anyone to take care of him.
After finishing his work, Fu Yun Shen brought some alcohol and went to find Fu Xizhou. Fu Xizhou opened the door, but he was still busy with work. Currently, there were no issues with the vaccines or the cold chain, but there must have been a problem somewhere in the process. Fu Yun Shen deliberately suggested that Fu Xizhou should make time for a meeting with him. After returning to his room, Fu Yun Shen video called Zhu Jiu. He knew that Zhu Jiu played a big role in changing the hospital's attitude, and he was grateful to have her by his side.
During the meeting, Fu Yun Shen updated everyone on the vaccine situation. After their investigation, they hadn't found any issues with the vaccines, and the other party also acknowledged their transportation methods. So their next step was to find the root cause. Zhu Jiu went to find her aunt and discovered that her brother-in-law was physically abusing her aunt. Zhu Jiu rushed in and not only stopped him from hitting her sister but also prevented him from taking away the money for their child's tutoring class. Zhu Jiu's brother-in-law had a gambling problem and was currently unemployed, so he was in a bad mood. After learning about the situation, Zhu Jiu advised her aunt to be careful since domestic violence often repeats itself. Zhu Jiu's aunt was also facing many difficulties, but she had to persevere through them.
Zhu Jiu's aunt had her own struggles, and Zhu Jiu gave her all the money she had, but her aunt refused to accept it if it was for persuading her to undergo surgery. Zhu Jiu clarified that it wasn't the case and assured her that she would find a solution for their grandmother's situation. Fu Xizhou and Fu Yun Shen returned to their home country. Chen Le and Fu Xizhou's secretary picked them up. After Fu Yun Shen came back, his first priority was to go to the hospital to find Zhu Jiu, who was still troubled. He could sense that Zhu Jiu was unhappy and asked her if something had happened. Zhu Jiu hugged Fu Yun Shen and told him that their grandmother was sick and that the surgery carried significant risks. Fu Yun Shen could only console Zhu Jiu and assure her that they would find a solution. He also hoped that Zhu Jiu would tell their grandmother the truth because their grandmother was strong. Zhu Jiu agreed to do so.
After Fu Xizhou returned, his first task was to pick up Gu Ruan Ruan, but she said she wouldn't go back. Fu Xizhou suggested holding a new ceremony in a better church, but Gu Ruan Ruan, after much consideration, expressed her desire for a divorce. She was completely disappointed in Fu Xizhou. Fu Yun Shen also arrived at Zhu Jiu's home, and their grandmother asked about the test results. Zhu Jiu informed her about their grandmother's liver cancer, and Fu Yun Shen comforted her. The grandmother didn't say anything and simply went back to her room. This news was a significant blow to her.
After packing her things in her room, their grandmother asked Zhu Jiu and Fu Yun Shen to take her to the hospital. She also promised to cooperate with the treatment. Zhu Jiu stayed with her grandmother at the hospital. Fu Yun Shen helped with the admission procedures, and after taking care of everything for her grandmother, Zhu Jiu had to go back to work.
