Episode 9 recap: Shan Yu seeks confirmation of his parentage from his mother.
Shan Yu has decided to undergo surgery, but his mother arrives at the hospital at this moment. Her anxious and caring demeanor warms Shan Yu's heart. However, he suddenly recalls a senior named Zhang Haochuan and asks his mother if she knows this person. He also questions whether he and his mother are not truly mother and son. In her distress, his mother asks if Min Ying revealed this matter. This question surprises Shan Yu; he didn't expect his mother to know Min Ying.
Min Ying is also at the hospital at this time. Her grandmother has been hospitalized due to senile dementia, requiring long-term care. Min Ying doesn't have any family or friends and must bear the responsibility alone. Just after leaving the hospital's office, Shan Yu's mother calls to arrange a meeting. She already knew about Min Ying's genetic report. That day, Zhang Haochuan came to see Shan Yu's father with the genetic report, but Shan Yu and his wife weren't home, and Shan Yu's mother saw it.
Shan Yu's mother hopes that Min Ying will never speak of this matter. Shan Yu's father didn't want to marry her, and it was only possible if she gave birth to a son. In order to fulfill this wish, Shan Yu's mother switched the children. She didn't want her husband to know about this, so she is willing to give Min Ying a sum of money, even if it means going abroad, as long as she never comes back.
After Shan Yu's mother tells him about this, he becomes very angry and blames her for mistreating Min Ying. Shan Yu doesn't accept his mother's apology. Min Ying eventually accepted the money and took her grandmother to seek medical treatment, promising to leave forever. When Shan Yu comes to find Min Ying, she can only hide in the room and listen to his pleading. Shan Yu only wishes not to break up with Min Ying, while she hides in the room, shedding tears. Her heart is filled with nothing but reluctance.
