Episode 8 recap: Zheng Ren resigned, and Xie Yi Ren confessed his identity.
Pan Shi Hai was rescued and returned. Su Yun and Zheng Ren were silent in Pan Shi Hai's ward, while Bu Ruo Tian and Su Li watched from outside. Bu Ruo Tian told Su Li that years ago, he intervened in Zheng Ren's class at Nanda University. At that time, he heard that Zheng Ren's parents had passed away and he relied on loans to study. He struggled for years to repay the loans. At that time, Bu Ruo Tian just thought that Zheng Ren was a child who had a difficult life, studied diligently, and could become a good doctor. But he never expected that Zheng Ren would be Chen Miao's son. The thought of it made him feel very guilty.
Bu Ruo Tian wanted to discuss with Su Li about returning Chen Miao's shares to Zheng Ren. Su Li readily agreed. Looking at Zheng Ren's disappointed and lonely appearance, Su Li comforted him, saying that he had also gone through similar things. Initially, Su Li even suspected that Bu Ruo Tian was having an affair, but later discovered that Bu Ruo Tian no longer cared about it.
Zheng Ren was very angry that he lost two loved ones on that day. Su Li told him that they were unaware of these events. Zheng Ren felt that if his father had stayed at home that day, maybe his mother would not have died or jumped off the building. Su Li sympathized with Zheng Ren, and Su Yun was also deeply affected by Zheng Ren's painful experience.
Zheng Ren mentioned that Chen Miao once saved a young girl with a spinal injury using her medical skills. She simultaneously managed two surgeries and was misunderstood by others, accused of lacking medical ethics. Now, Su Li told Zheng Ren that it was fate, which made Zheng Ren very angry. Zheng Ren believed it was a misunderstanding and wanted to clear Chen Miao's name, but Su Li felt that without evidence, it couldn't be explained.
Suddenly, Zheng Ren felt that the dust in the eyes of patients would suffocate a good doctor. Su Li believed that this incident had already happened, and there was no use in bringing up old matters again. The deceased had passed away, and the living should look forward. Zheng Ren understood the reasoning Su Li presented, but he was still unwilling to accept it.
Su Li continued, saying that Pan Shi Hai fell seriously ill because of Chen Miao's incident and had to step back from the front lines. Thirty families and fifty-two lives were affected by a series of car accidents to varying degrees. Su Yun couldn't help but advise Zheng Ren to move forward and not let such tragedies happen again for it to have meaning.
Su Li instructed Su Yun to be more attentive in the coming days. Just as he finished speaking, Zheng Ren came in and handed Su Li his resignation letter, wanting to leave. Su Li felt a headache coming on. However, Su Yun believed that Zheng Ren would definitely come back, just like he did in the past.
When Zheng Ren returned home, he collapsed and clung to the evidence. He couldn't accept this truth and lay on the floor crying while holding a photo of Chen Miao.
Zhou Li Tao asked Su Yun why Zheng Ren didn't come. Su Yun casually said that Zheng Ren had resigned. Zhou Li Tao was somewhat incredulous and mentioned that Su Yun had also resigned before, casually suggesting that Su Yun had an adjustment disorder. This angered Su Yun, who confronted Zhou Li Tao.
Zhou Li Tao explained directly what he had heard at school and told Su Yun to hang in there. Su Yun found Zhou Li Tao disgusting. Zheng Ren went to his parents' graves and told his father that he had resigned. He reminisced about his childhood and felt that his father had actually chosen medicine for him but abandoned him halfway. Zheng Ren couldn't accept it and quickly wiped away his tears when he saw Bu Ruo Tian approaching.
Bu Ruo Tian tried to console Zheng Ren and told him that he was unique. He wanted Zheng Ren to persist in his dream and live freely, not become a failure like them. Zheng Ren carefully considered his words. Xie Yi Ren recalled Chang Yue telling him that Zheng Ren was the son of his benefactor. Xie Yi Ren saw a patient looking for Zheng Ren and quickly sought help from Su Yun.
Su Yun believed that it was time for Zheng Ren to make a choice. He came with a photo, appearing relaxed. Zheng Ren looked at the patient's images, and Su Yun wanted Zheng Ren to perform the surgery. Zheng Ren flatly refused.
Su Yun told Zheng Ren that the patient was the son of Li Aifang. Zheng Ren was stunned but pretended not to hear. Su Yun told Zheng Ren that his teacher had said making choices was important and left the images with him. Su Yun informed Su Li that the surgery had to be done by Zheng Ren in order to resolve the past.
Now there was surveillance, and Su Li believed that the person responsible wouldn't act that way. Su Li thought it was unlikely for them to be a scoundrel. Huang Aguo tried to act tough, but Xie Yi Ren came over and said something to him, and Huang Aguo obediently complied. Xie Yi Ren told Zheng Ren that his childhood name was Xie Jiaya and it was because of Chen Miao that he chose to become a doctor and save more people.
Zheng Ren was clearly stunned. When Huang Aguo received a phone call saying that his elderly mother had an issue and wanted to return home, he suddenly had a headache and collapsed to the ground.
