Episode 22 recap: Ten years later, Shan Yu and Min Ying are together.
After Min Ying turned herself in, she underwent several months of investigation. During this time, Shan Yu took care of his grandmother and they both waited for Min Ying to return. After a few months, Min Ying was released without charges and regained her freedom. She went abroad to study, and even during her time abroad, Shan Yu continued to take care of her. Ten years later, Shan Yu was pushing his grandmother past a nearby convenience store when the store owner gave him a watch. It was the same watch that his grandmother had found at the scene of a car accident nearby and had forgotten at the store.
On the day after a heavy rain, Shan Yu, who had been in a car accident, was lying in the muddy water when his confused grandmother happened to come to pick up Min Ying from school. She encountered Shan Yu and he instructed his grandmother to go back home, assuring her that there would be a man who looked just like him to take care of her. In order to make his grandmother believe him, Shan Yu gave her his own watch. As Shan Yu looked at the familiar watch, he recalled the day of the accident, which happened to be the day he would leave ten years later. Perhaps it was on that day that the accident occurred, and this weighed heavily on Shan Yu's mind.
On the day Min Ying returned from abroad, Shan Yu found Mr. Luo, who sold candles, and confided in him about his troubles. Mr. Luo advised Shan Yu not to worry about things that hadn't happened and reminded him that fate is not controlled by anyone or anything but by oneself. Little did they know that they were the ones who could create miracles in their own destiny. Min Ying and Shan Yu arranged to meet by the lake, and as they looked at the candles in their hands, Min Ying smiled with satisfaction. Ten years ago, it was Shan Yu who took the initiative to be together, and today, ten years later, it was her turn to take the initiative.
At that moment, Min Ying slipped and almost fell into the water, but Shan Yu held her tightly in his arms, and they gazed into each other's eyes for a long time.
Ten years later, the male lead went back to save Min Ying. Min Ying survived until the end, and the male lead from ten years ago also followed the instructions of the male lead from ten years later and lived well.
The male lead from ten years later died twice, once from brain cancer and once from a car accident. The female lead from ten years ago also died twice, once from diving and once from a car accident.
In the end, she was saved by the male lead from ten years later, and their destinies were rewritten.
Therefore, the male and female leads from ten years ago lived happily together.
