Episode 2 recap: Ma Zhuo comforted Xia Ze.
Ma Zhuo comforted Xia Ze.After growing up, Xia Ze opened a hot pot restaurant called "Wai Meir" together with her older sister, Xia Hua. Their business thrived due to their hard work. However, one day while Xia Ze was busy in the restaurant, someone suddenly mentioned something about her sister.
Xia Ze hurriedly went outside to handle the situation and told the person that her sister was not behaving normally. She also mentioned that she would treat them to a meal when she had the chance. At that moment, the people around didn't want to cause any more trouble, so they warned Xia Ze and left. After that, the people nearby immediately pulled Xia Hua aside and went into the kitchen to discuss the matter. They told Xia Ze that she couldn't continue to behave recklessly in the shop if they wanted to keep it running. However, Xia Hua didn't listen to their words. After a heated argument, Xia Ze went back out to serve customers, while Ma Zhuo, who was sitting in the car, noticed everything happening in the hot pot restaurant. He felt a mix of emotions but chose not to show himself. He quietly observed the bustling figures outside from the car. Not long after, the people in the restaurant quickly noticed Ma Zhuo sitting in the car, but he drove away without hesitation. When the people chased after him, there was no trace of him.
At that moment, Xia Ze, panting heavily, turned around and went straight to the room. She found the letters that Ma Zhuo had written to her while sitting in the car. In those letters, he asked her to take care of herself and assured her that he would wait for her to come back. After reading the contents of the letters, memories of that summer suddenly came to Xia Ze's mind. At that time, when she was taken away by the police for injuring someone, Ma Zhuo personally wrote many letters to encourage her, hoping that she would remain hopeful and not fall into self-blame because of certain things.
After a period of study, Ma Zhuo, as a top student, quickly passed the entrance examination and was admitted to the Shanghai University of Political Science and Law. Her future seemed bright. On the other hand, Xia Ze, who had injured someone in the past, faced a difficult situation. After serving his sentence in prison, he returned home with baggage. When the family saw him, they enthusiastically tried to turn his luck around. During the meal, Xia Ze's father praised Ma Zhuo for her university admission and compared her to Xia Ze, hoping that Xia Ze would learn from his sister. Witnessing his father embarrassing Xia Ze again, Ma Zhuo stood up without hesitation and spoke on Xia Ze's behalf, pointing out that Xia Ze also had her own strengths. However, Xia Ze faced unfair treatment when looking for a job and was deliberately excluded and bullied by some people around him. As a result, he struggled to find a suitable job to support himself.
Afterwards, Xia Ze's father personally intervened and tried to find a job for his son. However, when he entered a house, he was humiliated by Mo Li with some money. Unable to bear it any longer, Xia Ze angrily turned and walked out of the house, quietly making his way to the riverside. When Ma Zhuo heard from a friend that Xia Ze had returned to the boxing gym, he understood his friend's feelings very well. Without hesitation, Ma Zhuo grabbed her backpack and ran to the boxing gym. As soon as she saw Xia Ze there, she confidently stepped onto the stage, placed her backpack down, and stood in front of him. Upon seeing her, Xia Ze initially planned to stop fighting, but Ma Zhuo showed no intention of underestimating him and signaled him to come forward without hesitation.
