Episode 1 recap: Min Ying left a candle behind before committing suicide.
On Min Ying's birthday, Shan Yu prepared a special candle with Min Ying's birthday on it. They planned to blow out the candle, make a wish, and wait for the arrival of a meteor shower. Their friends were also recording a video on the side. Shan Yu's birthday wish was for Min Ying to become his girlfriend.
Zheng Zhe, who was quietly tending to the fire nearby, had a displeased expression but didn't react. Just as Shan Yu entered the tent to prepare for sleep, a version of himself from ten years in the future appeared outside the tent. Future Shan Yu revealed a wish that Zhu Xiao'en would make soon, proving that he came from ten years later and knew everything about the current situation. He then suggested that Shan Yu intercept Min Ying, who was about to leave the campsite, because he knew about all the happiness and sweetness they would experience together in the next ten years, which would come to an end on this day. So, Future Shan Yu traveled through time repeatedly, searching for the past in order to save Min Ying. In 2018, ten years later, Min Ying tragically died by suicide at the edge of the creek. Her body floated in the water, but she held the candle that Shan Yu had given her tightly in her hand. The police found Shan Yu and handed him the belongings. Shan Yu couldn't understand what had happened and why Min Ying, who was supposed to go abroad, would commit suicide. Sitting in his room, Shan Yu lit the candle, closed his eyes, and contemplated. But as the candle burned, everything around him started to change. The news reported that a meteor shower would soon streak across the sky. Astonished, Shan Yu opened his eyes and realized that everything in the room had changed—it was from ten years ago. He suddenly realized that he had traveled back ten years. At that moment, Shan Yu's phone rang. He picked up the old-fashioned phone, and it was a call from Min Ying. She suggested meeting at their old spot and handing something over to Shan Yu. Excitedly, Shan Yu rushed to the designated place, watching the time tick away. Min Ying also ran towards him, as if someone was chasing her from behind. Fearful that Shan Yu might make a sound, she hurriedly pinned him against the wall, covering his mouth.
