A Little Thing Called First Love Episode 5 Recap
> A Little Thing Called First Love Recap
Haida High School vs. Shanghai Chengerzhong. The players from Chengerzhong were aggressive and repeatedly fouled, injuring Wang Yichao. Lin Kaituo, in the spectator seats, couldn't stand it anymore. He decided to put aside past grievances and all prejudices and enter the game. Lin Kaituo came to rescue the situation, and Haida High School's basketball team was greatly inspired. With the tacit cooperation of all team members, Haida High School won the game.
However, Liang Younian and Lin Kaituo suffered minor injuries in the basketball game. Liang Younian had a scraped arm. While cheering for Liang Younian, Xia Miaomiao noticed this detail. She rushed home to get medicine for Liang Younian. Liang Younian originally wanted to just use a popsicle to ice it down, but he still didn't refuse Xia Miaomiao's kindness when she came to find him, allowing Xia Miaomiao to treat his wound. Liang Younian returned home.
His father was treating Lin Kaituo's wound. His mother was very happy to hear that Liang Younian and Lin Kaituo played basketball together and wanted them to reconcile as soon as possible. Lin Kaituo rarely agreed to eat with everyone from the Liang family, but conflict arose again at the dinner table. His mother apologized to Liang Younian for making braised pork that he didn't like. Lin Kaituo, unable to bear his mother's subservience, mocked her.
He left the table coldly, leaving harsh words behind. Liang Younian hid the complicated emotions in his eyes. In front of his father and mother, he ate the fatty meat in his bowl, saying that he was no longer picky. The Liang family's dinner ended on a sour note. Lin Kaituo planned to save his delivery money for rent, while Liang Younian was thinking about his mother in his room.
His father did not allow him to apply for the architecture major at Haida University, but he was determined and unwilling to change his mind. On the day of the college entrance examination, Xia Miaomiao specifically got up early to set up her stall. She brought breakfast for Liang Younian, hoping he would do well in the exam. Liang Younian accepted the breakfast.
Although Xia Miaomiao didn't say it explicitly, Liang Younian subtly guessed that it was prepared for him by Xia Miaomiao. The college entrance examination is an important event for every parent. Even though Liang Younian was not his mother's biological son, she knew that Liang Younian hadn't eaten breakfast, so she specifically chased after him to the school, wanting to give him the breakfast.
Liang Younian had already entered the school, and his mother had no way to hand him the breakfast. She could only feed him dumplings through the crack in the door. This scene was captured by a reporter, and Liang Younian and his mother appeared in the newspaper because of it. Seeing the newspaper, Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but deeply marvel at his mother's love. Lin Kaituo, who was passing by, heard Xia Miaomiao say "moving maternal love."
He sneered and mocked his mother. Xia Miaomiao didn't know the relationship between Liang Younian and Lin Kaituo and simply argued with Lin Kaituo. Lin Kaituo's temper instantly flared up. The unaware Xia Miaomiao mistakenly thought that Lin Kaituo's mother was no longer alive. After the college entrance examination, Liang Younian ranked first in the city, becoming the top science student. However, he and Xia Miaomiao still coincidentally came to the art studio.
Just then, his father had already learned that Liang Younian had only filled in the architecture department at Haida University for his college application. He lost his temper at Liang Younian, tearing up Liang Younian's drawings on the spot and demanding that Liang Younian change his application. Liang Younian insisted on not backing down regarding his application and simply picked up the torn drawings before leaving the art studio. Liang Younian came to the lighthouse alone.
Xia Miaomiao followed and stayed by Liang Younian's side. Liang Younian told Xia Miaomiao everything. His mother was actually Lin Kaituo's mother. At that time, only one year after Liang Younian's biological mother passed away, his father wanted to marry Lin Kaituo's mother. Neither Lin Kaituo nor Liang Younian could accept this. The two originally reached an agreement to oppose it together, but Liang Younian saw his father's sadness and chose to compromise, agreeing to their marriage.
Just like this, the relationship between Liang Younian and Lin Kaituo became what it is now. And even his own mother's death anniversary is remembered by no one except him. After hearing Liang Younian's story, Xia Miaomiao couldn't help but feel heartbroken and tear up. Liang Younian looked at Xia Miaomiao helplessly. Xia Miaomiao quickly held back and wiped away her tears. His father waited for Liang Younian to return at the doorstep.
The father and son ate together at the dining table, but the atmosphere was subtly awkward. There was an obvious sense of unfamiliarity between Liang Younian and his mother. At the dinner table, he asked his father to give him the box where his mother kept her design drawings, but his father only told Liang Younian to eat first and did not agree to it.
His father was away for a few days, and Liang Younian was in charge of watching the art studio. During this time, Xia Miaomiao couldn't unscrew her white paint. Liang Younian wanted to help Xia Miaomiao open it but used too much force and broke the paint tube. He decided to go to the stationery store to buy a new set for Xia Miaomiao. Just then, Xia Miaomiao was also in the stationery store.
She didn't know that Liang Younian had arrived behind her and was just looking at an expensive set of paints with admiration, reluctant to put them down but without the money to buy them.
