Episode 18 recap: Chen Tingyi was mocked behind his back by his classmates.
When Chen Tingyi returned to school, he heard his classmates mocking him from behind. As he walked along, he couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted to confront them directly, but before he could react, Lin Hao and She Zhenzhen had already resolved the trouble. The once cheerful Chen Tingyi now couldn't seem to muster a smile. He just wanted some time alone to calm down. Everyone knew he was feeling upset and couldn't accept what had just happened before his eyes.
Wang Qinghui also didn't understand, but after communicating with Man Zhuojie, he decided to respect her decision. He couldn't force matters of the heart. With his parents passing away early and his sister raising him all by herself, it hadn't been easy. Now that his sister finally found someone she liked, he couldn't ruin it. That's why he specifically found Chen Tingyi and brought him mung bean soup as an apology. But as soon as Chen Tingyi heard about Uncle Wei and Man Zhuojie, his expression changed immediately.
Back at home, Chen Tingyi anxiously waited for Uncle Wei. He had always wanted to show concern, but couldn't find the right words. Seeing Uncle Wei being supported by his second uncle and aunt as they entered, Chen Tingyi walked out as if nothing happened. He didn't even spare a glance at Uncle Wei. Chen Tingyi didn't know how to face the situation, but he knew he was wrong to have laid hands on Uncle Wei. When he returned home, Chen Tingyi thought about tidying up the table and helping his second uncle and aunt, but they stopped him. Since Uncle Wei hadn't eaten or drunk anything all day, Chen Tingyi had no choice but to deliver the meal.
Uncle Wei was also very angry. He continued to shout that he wouldn't eat or drink when he heard the knocking on the door. But the moment he saw Chen Tingyi, he immediately stood up. He genuinely wanted to apologize to Chen Tingyi, but no matter what he said, Chen Tingyi still refused to accept it. He only hoped that Man Zhuojie wouldn't appear at Wei Ji in the future. After saying that, he left without turning back. Although Uncle Wei was reluctant, he still made an appointment with Man Zhuojie. Both of them understood each other's feelings and could only remain calm for now, not wanting Chen Tingyi to be hurt.
Chen Tingyi saw Uncle Wei's suffering, watching him stare at the clothes Man Zhuojie bought for him every day, lost in thought and in tears. They had feelings for each other. After many days had passed, Uncle Wei had also changed. He stopped talking and smiling. Wei Ji closed its doors early, and at night he could only rely on memories, secretly wiping away tears. Chen Tingyi saw all of this, and his heart was in turmoil. He didn't know what to do.
When there were no classes at school, Chen Tingyi would always be alone on the rooftop. He had been thinking for many days, but still couldn't figure it out. As usual, he was lost in thought on the rooftop when Lin Hao came over to comfort him. Lin Hao told him that everyone should be true to themselves before trying to help others. None of us should be selfish enough to interfere in other people's lives. Chen Tingyi was stunned by Lin Hao's words and didn't expect him to be so eloquent. Unexpectedly, Lin Hao pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket, and it turned out to be something Zhang Tian Guan had said.
Chen Tingyi seemed to understand something and ran to the small grove to call his father to come home. On their way back, they happened to encounter Man Zhuojie buying fruits. Chen Tingyi took the opportunity to slip away, wanting to see if Uncle Wei would go find her. Unexpectedly, the two of them made plans to have coffee together and were genuinely happy, which completely relieved Chen Tingyi. Man Zhuojie brought deer antler slices from her hometown for Uncle Wei. When she saw Chen Tingyi, she thought about leaving first, but Chen Tingyi took the initiative to hold her back and apologized to her. Chen Tingyi's father, who had just entered the house, was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Tingyi to agree to their relationship. Uncle Wei's spirits immediately lifted.
