Episode 19 recap: Haozi's murder completely shattered Zhu Ying Hua.
Wanshitong never expected to see Zhu Ying Tai again. Wanshitong immediately embraced Zhu Ying Tai, and Zhu Ying Hua, who was standing by, was also very surprised. Zhu Ying Tai told Wanshitong about her experiences over the years. In her heart, she didn't actually want to become the head of the Zhu family. Deep down, she just wanted to find Wanshitong.
Zhu Ying Tai felt guilty for injuring Wanshitong's hand in the past, but fortunately, Wanshitong's left hand is now very nimble. Wanshitong also confessed that he initially thought he would be with Zhu Ying Hua forever, but it was only when Zhu Ying Tai appeared that he realized she was the love of his life. The two of them were very intimate, but the others at Luhe Pavilion were not accustomed to it. Zhu Ying Hua brought their son Haozi along, and Haozi even asked Wanshitong to sit beside him, creating a somewhat awkward atmosphere.
Wanshitong sought out Zhu Ying Hua and apologized on his own initiative. Zhu Ying Hua also mentioned that he hadn't sincerely smiled since his husband passed away a long time ago. He understood that Wanshitong and Zhu Ying Tai had known each other for over 20 years, and their relationship couldn't be compared. However, he hoped to receive an answer from Wanshitong after Haozi's birthday.
Wanshitong still hadn't given Zhu Ying Tai an answer. Zhu Lihua went to find Wanshitong and expressed her long-standing affection for him. She also didn't want him to play both sides. The crew at Luhe Pavilion even threatened Wanshitong with guns, insisting that he couldn't abandon Zhu Ying Hua and Haozi. Wanshitong was torn inside because he always believed that the person who gave him candy as a child was Zhu Ying Hua.
However, he didn't know that when they were young, Zhu Ying Tai drew a matching birthmark on her own head to prevent Zhu Ying Hua from feeling insecure about his birthmark. The person Wanshitong talked to was actually Zhu Ying Tai. Zhu Ying Tai also knew that Zhu Ying Hua had genuinely fallen for Wanshitong now. They needed to sit down and have a serious conversation. Zhu Ying Hua told her sister that she didn't want a man to change their sisterly relationship, and regardless of the choice, it would ultimately be Wanshitong's decision.
Today was supposed to be a celebration for Haozi's birthday. Suddenly, Zhu Ying Tai received a call from Huo Lao to meet up. Zhu Ying Tai informed them that she would return as soon as possible, but on the way, she was attacked by a group of men in black. Meanwhile, everyone was celebrating Haozi's birthday, and Haozi was very happy. When it was time to cut the cake, Wanshitong suddenly learned that Zhu Ying Tai seemed to have been involved in a gunfight. They rushed to the hospital in a hurry, and fortunately, Zhu Ying Tai was okay. However, Wanshitong was still very worried, and Zhu Ying Hua, who was by his side, could tell that Wanshitong cared deeply about Zhu Ying Tai.
When Wanshitong accidentally dropped Haozi's cake on the ground before leaving, Haozi was very upset. When Wanshitong returned, he wanted to apologize to Haozi. Haozi left them two pieces of cake. Wanshitong initially intended to explain everything to Zhu Ying Hua, but to his surprise, Zhu Ying Hua could already see Wanshitong's intentions at the hospital.
Zhu Ying Hua felt that sometimes the world was unfair to him. He had thought he could find his happiness, but it turned out to be another disappointment. Zhu Ying Hua kissed Wanshitong directly, bidding farewell to his past. Zhu Ying Hua also revealed that the person he had talked to that year was actually Zhu Ying Tai. Zhu Ying Tai had drawn a matching birthmark on her head to comfort herself, so their connection had been destined long ago.
Wanshitong planned to return to Tian Nan City with Zhu Ying Tai, but Haozi was furious and ran away from home because of Wanshitong's departure. Zhu Lihua was still discussing with Romeo about the person who framed her. They only knew it was a woman, and suddenly Molly thought of their mother. Now, no one dared to send Zhu Lihua back. Fortunately, Zhu Ying Tai's subordinates were present and were able to safely send her back to Tian Nan City.
They spent the whole day searching for Haozi, but in the evening, when they found him, they discovered that Haozi had been beaten to death. Zhu Ying Hua was completely devastated and didn't know who had killed his son. Even when he returned to his room, he still saw the presence of his child everywhere.
The police indicated that Haozi had been shot in the back, but there was no trace of the culprit. Wanshitong blamed himself deeply. Whenever Zhu Ying Hua heard of someone who seemed like a suspect, he would rush over to investigate. When Zhu Ying Tai went there, she discovered that the person's car was the same as the one used by the attackers who ambushed her. They quickly disappeared, and a series of gunfights ensued between the two sides.
They managed to capture one survivor, who confessed that he initially wanted to capture Haozi as a hostage to force Zhu Ying Tai out, but when Haozi tried to escape, he ended up killing him. Zhu Ying Hua became very angry upon hearing this and fired several shots in a fit of rage.
