Episode 17 recap: Everyone Celebrates Cheng Ya Ya's Birthday
In Episode 17, when Jia Dai Yu was pregnant, Jia Bao Shan rode in on a tricycle to pick her up, bringing imported chocolates. Despite their playful bickering, the sibling bond was strong. Cheng Miao Miao was sternly lecturing Jia Bao Shan, eager for him to head home, as she couldn't believe he was planning to go to school.
Meanwhile, Jia Bao Shan had his sights set on Han Shu, which kept him from leaving anytime soon. Yuan Shan Qing, under the night lights, folded an entire jar of stars. On Cheng Ya Ya's birthday, Cheng Peng Fei and Jia Dai Yu gifted her a computer, which thrilled her. Jia Bao Shan even thought about inviting Han Shu over for a celebratory dinner, but his interest in her wasn’t well-received by the others. Jia Dai Yu jokingly said he would dock Jia Bao Shan’s salary for a month if he actually managed to win Han Shu over.
Cheng Miao Miao and Cheng Ya Ya planned to go roller skating with everyone, including Yuan Shan Qing and Qiang Xiao Wa. Qiang Xiao Wa had crafted a unique shell pen holder as a gift for Cheng Ya Ya.
Yuan Shan Qing was hesitant to skate since it was her first time at a rink and she feared embarrassing herself. Cheng Ya Ya quickly helped her put on her skates and encouraged her. Yuan Shan Qing wobbled as she skated, supported by Cheng Ya Ya and the others.
Qiang Xiao Wa, on the other hand, impressed everyone with her skating skills. Li Si struggled a bit, needing to hold onto the railing to move slowly, and Cheng Miao Miao was in a similar boat. Seeing this, Qiang Xiao Wa took Cheng Miao Miao’s hand and glided forward, only for Li Si to rush over and pull Cheng Miao Miao back.
That evening, Jia Bao Shan prepared a barbecue for the kids, but he expressed disappointment that Han Shu hadn’t come, eagerly inquiring about her. After everyone returned home, Yuan Shan Qing revealed her gift for Cheng Ya Ya: a beautifully folded collection of 365 stars, one for each day of the year.
Yuan Shan Qing also made her own egg cake, which, while not a gourmet treat, Cheng Ya Ya really enjoyed. In fact, Yuan Shan Qing's birthday was just yesterday, but she hadn't celebrated since her mother passed away. Cheng Ya Ya lit the candles and they agreed to celebrate their birthdays together from now on.
Yang Song Bai called home, and Hu Yue asked Hu Qiu Min to say she wasn’t home, while she relaxed on the couch watching TV. Cheng Ya Ya opened the stars, each filled with a note from Yuan Shan Qing, with a heartfelt message in every one.
Early in the morning, Jia Bao Shan was busy in the kitchen making soup to deliver to Han Shu. He waited at the gate with the chicken soup, and when Han Shu saw him, her expression was complicated, so she had to call him into her office. Xiao Fang heard about an unauthorized person entering the school and rushed over, but after Jia Bao Shan flattered her, she didn’t mind and gulped down the soup, leaving Han Shu without a sip.
Hu Yue applied some lipstick to go dancing, and Hu Qiu Min was increasingly excited, encouraging her to be bold. Hu Yue received an invitation from someone but shyly declined. Jia Dai Yu felt a bit helpless, but the sisters had a great time together anyway.
Yuan Shan Qing was playing on the computer in Cheng Ya Ya's room, while Cheng Miao Miao went to Qiang Xiao Wa’s house since he hadn't come to school that day. It turned out the old principal was ill, and Qiang Xiao Wa had gone to visit him instead of attending school.
Qiang Xiao Wa draped a jacket over her, causing Cheng Miao Miao to blush unconsciously.
