Episode 27 recap: An Yan and Cong Jun Sheng Meet Each Other's Parents
In episode 27, Director Ma arranged for Principal Wei from Dansha High School to discuss the complaints regarding the evening study sessions at School 14. An Yan explained that the situation at School 14 is unique, as most of the children do not have parents nearby, and evening study is essential for keeping them in line. It became clear that Principal Wei mistakenly viewed School 14 as a competitor, while An Yan emphasized the importance of holistic student development rather than just focusing on grades. Realizing the misunderstanding, Principal Wei decided not to pursue the complaints.
Pan Lingling returned to school and actively participated in Cong Jun Sheng's science experiment, which involved testing three different circuits to see which one would reach the finish line first. Through this experiment, Cong Jun Sheng taught the students that in life, achieving ideals is not about taking shortcuts; rather, the challenges and obstacles we face along the way can strengthen our will, and finding the right path is what truly defines reaching the finish line.
As Cong Jun Sheng prepared to leave that day, Li Qin and Qin Huazi came to see him off, gifting him flowers made from vegetables. Qin Huazi expressed her gratitude to Cong Jun Sheng for giving her his spot, while Li Qin mentioned that she had been assigned to another school in the city focused on poverty alleviation. Before leaving, Cong Jun Sheng promised to return if Peace High School ever needed him. He reflected on his initial arrival at Peace High School, noting how their relationship evolved from misunderstandings to deep emotional connections.
An Yan received a message from Cong Jun Sheng informing her that he was on his way back to the city. She arranged for both sets of parents to meet that evening. The students were excitedly assembling computers, with Pei Fanghao being the first to complete his. This computer would be exclusively his, as he enjoyed gaming, but it was too slow, so he began researching how to enhance its speed.
Fang Xiang and Pei Qiu Yun brought a computer and vocational school enrollment pamphlets for Pan Lingling, hoping she would consider studying computers for an office job or training to become a nurse instead of working as a waitress in a nightclub. However, Pan Lingling was uninterested. When Fang Xiang opened the computer to teach Lingling Photoshop, he took a photo to show her how to edit it, promising her free internet access if she learned the necessary office software.
Pei Qiu Yun specifically visited Wen Jing, who shared that they were living on a basic income and that the community had invited her to join a drumming team, which not only helped her get exercise but also provided some extra money. On the way home, Pei Qiu Yun discreetly told her that Miaonasha had contacted her that morning, and she hoped they could persuade Miaonasha to come back home.
An Yan had dinner with Cong Jun Sheng's family, where he announced his resignation to be with An Yan. An Yan's mother and sister were shocked, and Nuan Nuan looked displeased. This news caught them off guard, and An Yan urged her mother to see that Cong Jun Sheng is someone she can trust, while also seeking her sister's blessing. The sister didn’t respond, and An Yan's mother advised them to think carefully, as their future path would be their own.
Yang Yang expressed a desire for her uncle and aunt to live together soon so she could play with Nuan Nuan every day. However, Nuan Nuan worried that her father would be lonely. On the way home, Nuan Nuan fretted that if her mother had another baby, they might not receive as much love. An Yan reassured her that even with more babies, there would just be more love to go around, which comforted Nuan Nuan and helped her accept Cong Jun Sheng.
An Yan's sister returned from the restaurant, still complaining about Cong Jun Sheng, as she was reluctant to see her brother marry someone with a previous marriage. Cong Jun Sheng cleverly used her situation to argue that she could also find a younger partner while raising a child. Meanwhile, Miaonasha, now working as a sanitation worker in the city, received a call from An Yan. Understanding the purpose of the call, Miaonasha stated that she could not return. An Yan didn't push her to come back but instead shared updates about Wen Jing and the family's well-being, which only made Miaonasha miss her family more, caught in a dilemma due to Zhang Xiaowei's actions.
Cong Jun Sheng returned to the training center, proposing to join as a partner.
