Episode 12 recap: Deng Shu held a music concert for his daughter.
Deng Li Jun was very excited when she found out, as her father had finally agreed to let her sing. Deng Li Jun quickly went to find Duan Ning to practice singing, and when Zhou Min heard that Deng Li Jun had arrived, he was also very happy, and his attitude towards Deng Li Jun had also changed.
Zhou Tai Sheng was giving Duan Ning extra tutoring. Duan Ning initially wanted to refuse, but Zhou Tai Sheng took the initiative to go out and said he could teach her to sing English songs while playing the guitar. Deng Li Jun knew no English, so Zhou Tai Sheng carefully taught her, which made Duan Ning quite uncomfortable.
Zhou Min thought the meaning of the English songs was good, and even asked Deng Li Jun to prepare two English songs as well. Zhou Tai Sheng stood up and pulled Deng Li Jun to sing together, but Duan Ning seemed listless. Soon, Deng Li Jun went back, and Zhou Tai Sheng said that as long as he did what he liked, his eyes would shine.
Zhao Su Gui originally thought her husband had agreed to let their daughter sing all the time, but it turned out she only sang during that meal, which left Zhao Su Gui a bit disappointed. In the following days, Deng Li Jun would often come to ask Zhou Tai Sheng for advice, and Duan Ning didn't want Zhou Tai Sheng and Deng Li Jun to have a chance to interact, even saying that Deng Li Jun should just sing Chinese songs.
Zhao Su Gui felt that rather than letting her daughter sing only once, it would be better not to let her sing at all. When Deng Li Jun happily returned home, Zhao Su Gui told her she didn't have to sing anymore and should focus on her studies instead. Deng Li Jun was very upset to hear this and had been staying at home without going to practice singing with Zhou Tai Sheng.
Zhou Tai Sheng and Duan Ning went to find Deng Li Jun, but Deng Li Jun was indifferent to them. When they found out that it was Zhao Su Gui who wouldn't let Deng Li Jun sing, they were quite surprised. Zhou Tai Sheng then encouraged Deng Li Jun, saying that her mother was actually very gentle.
Duan Ning also pleaded with Deng Li Jun, asking her to seize the opportunity even if it was the last time to perform on stage. Zhou Ping learned that Deng Li Jun was not allowed to sing and quickly went to plead with Deng Shu and Zhao Su Gui, but Zhao Su Gui still refused to relent.
Zhao Su Gui even said she had already planned to sing herself. Zhou Min repeatedly pleaded with Zhao Su Gui, but she still wouldn't budge. When Deng Li Jun returned home, she apologized to her mother on her own initiative, encouraged by her father, and Zhao Su Gui finally agreed.
Deng Li Jun could finally sing freely.
Everyone in the restaurant was busy working to complete Duan Ning's father's task, and they were all overworked. Just as everything was being prepared feverishly, Zhou Min came to tell everyone that all the banquets had been canceled.
Everyone was still very disappointed, and the most disappointed one should have been Deng Li Jun, as she had finally had a chance to sing, but this hope was now shattered. Everyone also noticed Deng Li Jun's disappointment, and Zhou Tai Sheng intentionally sang downstairs, which led to Deng Shu scolding Zhou Tai Sheng when he heard it.
Deng Li Jun quietly came to the window and saw Zhou Tai Sheng's figure. Deng Li Jun went downstairs and sang and played the piano with Zhou Tai Sheng. Deng Li Jun said she wanted to cherish the last chance, but it had been canceled. Zhou Tai Sheng felt that anywhere could be a stage, and under his encouragement, Deng Li Jun started singing. She was already very passionate about the stage, so she only needed a gentle nudge to start singing.
Deng Li Jun was very grateful that Zhou Tai Sheng always encouraged her, as singing was the only thing that made her feel happy. Zhou Tai Sheng walked Deng Li Jun to her doorstep and confessed to her, saying he might go to the US and asked her to miss him. Deng Li Jun did not respond, and Zhou Tai Sheng left on his bicycle.
Since the banquet was no longer held, all the preparations were dismantled. When the third brother learned that the banquet was canceled and his sister could not sing, he was worried about Deng Li Jun's mood and came to comfort her. Deng Li Jun held back her tears and even tore up her own songlist, which were her treasures. The third brother was very distressed to see this.
Deng Shu also knew his daughter was unhappy, but this was just a process. The third brother told his father that he only did not want his sister to be disappointed. He pleaded with his father, asking him to let his sister sing well instead of fulfilling the family's ambitions. Deng Li Jun still sat outside the audio shop, eating and singing. Deng Shu saw this and realized his daughter truly loved singing.
In the evening, Deng Li Jun returned home to find all the neighbors there, as her father had prepared a concert for her, letting her sing whatever she wanted. Deng Li Jun was very touched and smiled. On stage, Deng Li Jun was in her element, and Deng Shu was very happy watching his daughter. The third brother also actively apologized to his father.
Deng Shu carefully pasted Deng Li Jun's torn songlist back together in his room, and seeing his daughter's love for music, he hesitated.
