Episode 9 recap: Deng Li Jun decided to give up music for his father.
Zhao Su Gui is still busy with the restaurant, but she is still very sad about her and Deng Shu's past. Deng Shu has not returned home for a long time, and at this time the neighbor comes to inform that a body has been found on the seaside. Zhao Su Gui is very worried but still goes to the police station to identify it. When Zhao Su Gui sees the body, she is extremely emotional and hurries home without saying a word, only to go burn incense. Deng Li Jun is frightened.
Deng Li Jun goes to the radio station and tells the director that he will not sing after the contract expires at the end of the month, and the director, though regretting it, agrees. The neighbors all know that the Deng family is in trouble, but fortunately the person who drowned is not Deng Shu, but no one knows where Deng Shu is.
In fact, Deng Shu has gone to Shandong and is helping to raise chickens in his home there. Zhao Su Gui could have waited for him to come back, which would have been good enough. Soon Zhao Su Gui brings the children over with a lot of luggage, and they see Deng Shu. In her hurry to see her husband, Zhao Su Gui accidentally twists her foot.
Zhou Min takes Duan Ning to her wealthy friend's house, which has a nanny. Although Zhou Min doesn't say it out loud, she is secretly envious. Duan Ning goes upstairs to visit the injured Zhou Tai Sheng, who was originally going to go back to the US with her mother, but fell down the stairs while looking for a radio and broke her leg, so she can't walk now.
Duan Ning sees that Zhou Tai Sheng has written her name on the cast, and she deliberately writes an idiom containing her name. But Zhou Tai Sheng also writes an idiom containing Deng Li Jun's name. Duan Ning feels a little disappointed. Zhou Tai Sheng then asks why Deng Li Jun has not been singing lately, and Duan Ning says that their family's store is also closed, so he may have moved.
Zhou Tai Sheng wants Duan Ning to help her write a letter to the radio station to inquire about Deng Li Jun, but Duan Ning says she doesn't want to help. Duan Ning deliberately shifts the topic of her pen pal romance to Deng Li Jun, and also says a lot of bad things about Deng Li Jun, when in fact she just doesn't want Zhou Tai Sheng to like her.
However, Zhou Tai Sheng doesn't mind, and thinks writing the letter is a normal thing. As for dropping out of school, she can understand that Deng Li Jun just wants to sing. Both Zhou Min and Duan Ning return home feeling down, with Zhou Min feeling a little envious of her friend's better living conditions, and Duan Ning feeling sad that Zhou Tai Sheng likes Deng Li Jun instead of her.
During this time, Deng Shu has been staying at his home in Shandong. Zhao Su Gui tells Deng Shu that their daughter is no longer singing, and Deng Shu calms down, allowing Deng Li Jun to sit back at the dining table.
Deng Shu knew that his daughter seemed to have fulfilled her own wish, but singing was her dream, and Deng Shu was also very clear about this.
Shandong also told Deng Shu not to keep thinking about going back to his hometown, but Deng Shu just had a lot of reluctance in his heart. The neighbors came to Zhou Min's house originally wanting to ask about the situation of the Zhao Su Gui family, but found that the telephone line had been cut, and Zhou Min said it was bitten by a rat. Zhou Min has always looked down on Deng Li Jun, thinking she was just a singer, and the neighbors could only leave.
Duan Ning knew that his father had cut the phone line. His father contacted his mistress by phone, and during this time he was not at home, afraid that his mistress would call, so he deliberately cut the phone line. Zhao Su Gui still wanted to persuade her husband to go back, even if she was angry, she couldn't just leave everything alone. Zhao Su Gui was very aggrieved and said he had heard that someone had drowned and had also gone to the police station, and at the time he was very afraid that Deng Shu would just leave.
Zhao Su Gui said that no matter what, the family should be together, and Deng Shu didn't say anything, but the corners of his mouth revealed a smile. Soon the whole family returned to the store, and they planned to live well. During this period, because Duan Ning's father had not seen his mistress, the other party kept coming to their house nearby every day to drown his sorrows with alcohol, just wanting to see Duan Ning's father.
Duan Ning told Deng Li Jun that he liked Zhou Tai Sheng, and Deng Li Jun also clearly stated that he only regarded Zhou Tai Sheng as an ordinary friend, and Duan Ning heard it and was relieved.
Zhou Tai Sheng personally drew a comic and asked Duan Ning to help deliver it to Deng Li Jun, but Duan Ning refused. Zhou Tai Sheng didn't want Deng Li Jun to give up her dream. Duan Ning didn't want Zhou Tai Sheng to influence Deng Li Jun, and Duan Ning hoped that Zhou Tai Sheng wouldn't bother her.
Of course, Zhou Tai Sheng wouldn't listen, and when his foot was a little better, he came to the tutoring class with a crutch, just in time to see Deng Li Jun walking by. Deng Li Jun originally wanted to leave, but seeing him staggering, she still turned around and stopped.
