Episode 35 recap: Li Yi Jin discovered Meng Ming Wei's true identity.
When Meng Ming Wei returned home, Li Yi Jin understood that Tao Shu Na had come back, so she took the initiative to apologize to Meng Ming Wei. Meng Ming Wei explained the situation to Tao Shu Na, and Li Yi Jin did the right thing because deep down Meng Wan Qing still wanted Tao Shu Na to be by her side.
Upon hearing Meng Ming Wei's words, Li Yi Jin realized that when she had driven Meng Ming Wei away in the past, Meng Ming Wei also wanted her to stay. A nurse came to change Meng Wan Qing's bandages, but Meng Wan Qing didn't want Tao Shu Na to see her wounds, so she intentionally sent Tao Shu Na away.
No matter how Tao Shu Na persuaded her, Meng Wan Qing refused to let her stay, and Tao Shu Na could only secretly glance at Meng Wan Qing's wounds, which broke her heart. Tao Shu Na held back her tears and pretended to be unaffected in front of Meng Wan Qing until she went to wash the dishes, where she finally allowed herself to cry.
Meng Ming Wei helped Qiao Hai Yun tidy up the house, and Li Yi Jin unintentionally opened a drawer that hadn't been opened for a long time, discovering a piece of clothing that Meng Ming Wei wore as a child, which triggered Qiao Hai Yun's concerns.
Qiao Hai Yun retreated into the room, while Li Yi Jin curiously opened a diary written by Meng's father and unintentionally learned a big secret. Meng's father had written about a child who entered their lives, and Li Yi Jin immediately thought of the clothing in the drawer, suspecting that this child was Meng Ming Wei.
Not knowing the full situation, Li Yi Jin wanted to call Meng Yi An to ask, but Meng Yi An was busy with work and didn't say much. Qiu Xia came to deliver a book for Qiu Qiu in the late evening and learned about Meng Yi An's confession of divorce to Qiao Hai Yun. Qiu Xia then informed Meng Yi An about her desire to reconcile.
Meng Yi An didn't want to reconcile because she was afraid that they would separate again after getting back together, and they wouldn't even be able to remain friends. Meng Yi An had once believed that her parents were the epitome of a loving relationship, but the outcome turned out differently from what she had imagined. Due to Meng's father's actions, she had refused to return home to pay respects at his grave for all these years.
Unable to sleep due to thinking about Meng Ming Wei's situation, Li Yi Jin went to the drawer once again in the late evening to check the household registration booklet, but there were no blood type annotations on it.
During breakfast, Li Yi Jin indirectly asked Qiao Hai Yun about blood types, and Qiao Hai Yun immediately sensed that Li Yi Jin had something to ask, so she told Li Yi Jin to speak directly.
Li Yi Jin revealed the information written in the diary that Meng Ming Wei was an adopted daughter, and asked Qiao Hai Yun to tell her the truth. Qiao Hai Yun didn't expect that Li Yi Jin would discover Meng Ming Wei's true identity, so she had to explain the events of the past to Li Yi Jin.
Back then, Qiao Hai Yun and her husband were delivering dumplings to their neighbors. They noticed that the neighbor had many children, and one of them was sick with a fever. Out of kindness, Qiao Hai Yun took the child with her and went to the hospital with her husband for treatment. When Qiao Hai Yun returned after treating the child, she found a note left by the family, indicating that they had left. However, the child kept holding her hand and crying, making it difficult for her to let go.
After the child's illness was cured, Qiao Hai Yun learned that the child had contracted polio. They consulted many doctors but couldn't cure the disease. So, she changed her mind and decided to have a child herself so that Meng Ming Wei would have siblings to take care of her. Qiao Hai Yun revealed Meng Ming Wei's true identity and asked Li Yi Jin to keep it a secret and not tell anyone.
Meng Yi An learned about Meng Wan Qing's illness and was deeply concerned. She wanted Meng Wan Qing to go to Shanghai for treatment, but Meng Wan Qing refused and only asked Meng Yi An to help keep it a secret from Qiao Hai Yun.
When Meng Ming Wei entered the room to pack her things, she happened to see Li Yi Jin's suitcase and decided to help tidy it up. Unexpectedly, she discovered the diary. After reading the diary, Meng Ming Wei learned about her true identity, and her mind began to wander. Li Yi Jin noticed that the suitcase had been tampered with and worried that Meng Ming Wei had read the diary, so she tried to probe Meng Ming Wei. However, Meng Ming Wei pretended to be unaware and didn't let Li Yi Jin figure out anything.
Li Yi Jin went to the hospital to visit Meng Wan Qing, and while discussing Meng Wan Qing's condition with Tao Shu Na, she learned that Meng Wan Qing planned to leave the hospital and divorce Tao Da Lei. Li Yi Jin was very surprised. Tao Shu Na supported Meng Wan Qing's decision but was still saddened. She didn't know what to do and felt a great deal of pressure. She could only seek comfort from Li Yi Jin.
