Because of You Episode 45 Recap
> Because of You Recap
Le Tong's true identity was finally known to everyone in the Li family. This huge amount of information made He Juan feel even more that misfortune had befallen their household. Thinking that her eldest son was burdened by Zhang Yuxin, and her second son would have to raise Zhang Yuxin's daughter, He Juan felt dizzy spells, as if everything had gotten worse since Zhang Yuxin and Zhang Guoguo appeared.
Li Haisong also did not want Le Tong to stay in the Li family. Their choice, from their own perspective, was not wrong. But for Zhang Guoguo, it forced her to separate from her daughter. She could not blame Li Haisong and He Juan for their selfishness, but the innocent Le Tong was even less at fault. At this moment, Zhang Guoguo could not think of a better option than to take Le Tong and leave the Li family.
Li Yunkai saw Zhang Guoguo's resolute attitude and was not angry. As a man, he had the obligation to protect his wife and daughter. Although this would displease Li Haisong and He Juan, he still chose to stand by Zhang Guoguo. Li Yunkai told Li Yunzhe his decision. Li Yunzhe likewise found it incomprehensible.
He had always thought Li Yunkai would be reluctant to give up everything in the Li family, never imagining that he could abandon everything for Zhang Guoguo. This made him suddenly feel a little relaxed. It was a rare opportunity for the two brothers to have a heart-to-heart talk. On the other side, Zhang Guoguo reluctantly took Le Tong and left the Li family. She was actually a bit upset inside.
With things having come to this point, she was reluctant to part with Le Tong, but equally reluctant to part with Li Yunkai. At this moment, Lu Sichen's car stopped beside her. Seeing Lu Sichen, Zhang Guoguo felt some resistance. She did not want Lu Sichen and Le Tong to have too much contact. Lu Sichen also felt very guilty about everything that had happened.
He thanked Zhang Guoguo while informing Li Yunkai to come and pick up Zhang Guoguo and Le Tong. When Li Yunkai arrived, he happened to hear Zhang Guoguo mention him. It turned out that Zhang Guoguo had always felt that because of her and Le Tong, Li Yunkai's pressure was increasing, and he was becoming less energetic. This made Li Yunkai's heart feel warm and touched, with a slight hint of self-reproach.
Li Yunkai took the sleeping Le Tong from Lu Sichen's car. On the way home, he told Zhang Guoguo that he would arrange everything so she wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. Seeing Li Yunkai always thinking of her, Zhang Guoguo did not know how to express her feelings, so she simply hugged him and gave him a big kiss. Inside Times Group, Lu Sichen took out the dashcam footage from the previous warehouse truck.
It detailed Zhang Yuxin's attempt to harm him. The truth was revealed, and Li Haisong breathed a sigh of relief. This video proved Li Yunzhe's innocence, but at the same time, he was shocked by Zhang Yuxin's viciousness. Lu Sichen decided to call the police to handle this matter. Just as he called to notify the police to find Zhang Yuxin, Zhang's mother also happened to arrive at Times Group and overheard his words.
Originally, Zhang's mother intended to plead with Li Haisong not to expel Zhang Yuxin from the Li family, but at this moment, Lu Sichen's call made her no longer care about the Li family, and she left in a hurry. Jinluge's embroidery master competition was held as scheduled. Wu Lisha, at Zhang Yuxin's invitation, also became one of the judges for this competition. After Dong Lijun finished her speech, the competition officially began.
At the entrance of the Li family home, because Le Tong wanted to watch Zhang Guoguo's competition, He Juan planned to call a car to take her there. Out of curiosity about her birth mother, Le Tong asked He Juan if she knew her birth mother. He Juan was somewhat embarrassed and could only equivocate to placate Le Tong. Li Yunzhe happened to overhear this conversation.
He realized this might be an opportunity to get rid of Zhang Yuxin and volunteered to take Le Tong to find her birth mother. Halfway there, Le Tong already regretted it. She didn't want to hurt Zhang Guoguo's feelings because of her curiosity about her birth mother. In fact, Li Yunzhe also regretted it. No matter how much he hated Zhang Yuxin, using Le Tong made him feel guilty.
At the competition venue, the first round was to find Cui Hui's masterpiece, "Fushan Chunju Tu". Song Xiuhua preempted, saying that this painting was in her possession but was now lost. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuxin took out "Fushan Chunju Tu", countering that the painting had always been with Xu Huijie. Zhang Guoguo understood that this was Zhang Yuxin's trick.
As long as Xu Huijie spoke, it would inevitably bring up the events of seventeen years ago, which was precisely what Zhang Guoguo least wanted to see. Left with no choice, Zhang Guoguo conceded the first round. Song Xiuhua was a bit anxious because this competition was very important. Song Xiuhua did not want Zhang Guoguo to concede so easily. But Zhang Guoguo comforted Song Xiuhua, saying that she would definitely win the next two rounds.
Soon, the second round began. Zhang Guoguo and Zhang Yuxin each embroidered a "Fushan Chunju Tu". Zhang Yuxin's work was sparkling and dazzling, while Zhang Guoguo's work appeared ordinary. Just when everyone thought she might fail because of this, Zhang Guoguo revealed the profound essence of her work. To better embody the meaning of "Fushan Chunju Tu", Zhang Guoguo used a back-to-basics embroidery method, ultimately winning the unanimous approval of the judges.
During the halftime break of the competition, Zhang Yuxin saw Le Tong. She deliberately told Le Tong that Zhang Guoguo hated Le Tong's birth mother the most, which made Le Tong distraught and accidentally ruin Zhang Guoguo's competition embroidery dress. Xu Huijie saw the ruined dress and couldn't help but scold Le Tong, but Zhang Guoguo and Li Yunkai protected Le Tong. This scene greatly impacted Xu Huijie.
She finally made up her mind to be the mother Zhang Guoguo wanted her to be. The third round of the competition was about to begin. At this moment, Zhang's mother rushed over to find Zhang Yuxin, pleading with her to leave together. However, Zhang Yuxin, single-mindedly focused on becoming the embroidery master, did not notice Zhang's mother's anxiety at all, nor was she in the mood to listen to her.
She insisted on breaking free from Zhang's mother and entered the competition venue. When Zhang Guoguo presented the embroidery dress to the judges, her superb embroidery skills, as well as Song Xiuhua's deep affection for her deceased husband, deeply moved Dong Lijun. Thinking that after her passing, she could wear her son's favorite clothes to meet him, Dong Lijun felt both peaceful and excited inside.
But what was most surprising was that Zhang Guoguo was able to quickly embroider the spot Le Tong had dirtied into six geese symbolizing blessings in an extremely short time, making everyone admire her high level of skill. When Zhang Yuxin's embroidery dress was also presented before everyone, everyone's expressions were a bit strange, but Zhang Yuxin herself was shocked because it was not the embroidery dress she had prepared at all.
At this moment, Xu Huijie spoke, recounting the events of seventeen years ago one by one. These past events, piece by piece, deeply pained the hearts of Dong Lijun, Jin Zhiming, and Song Xiuhua. After waiting for a full seventeen years, finally today, the truth came to light.
