Cross Fire Episode 18 Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Teacher Bai called Chu Ge's mother and was informed that Chu Ge did not plan to take the college entrance examination because she did not get a good ranking in the competition. Lu Xiaobei took out Chu Ge's test scores from last week. Even without a ranking, she still had hope of getting into Nantong University of Physical Education. However, the teacher told him that Chu Ge had already found a job.
Chu Ge was working as a waitress in a fast-food restaurant. When she saw Lu Xiaobei approaching, she immediately ran into the stairwell. Lu Xiaobei had no choice but to persuade her through the door, hoping she would at least give it a try. He believed Chu Ge could still get into Nantong University of Physical Education even without the bonus points. Chu Ge leaned against the door, tears streaming down her face in sadness.
After Lu Xiaobei left, Chu Ge found a piece of chocolate left on the ground. The next day, Chu Ge returned to school. Teacher Bai asked her to read her essay aloud to everyone. Chu Ge slowly picked up her essay and began to read: "My father is a murderer.
In her impression, he had always worked very hard, driving a large truck for transport, enduring wind and rain, but he never said he was tired and often played with Chu Ge. Until 2008, Chu Ge's father's truck had an accident, and he had to pay a large sum of money plus interest. Those people came to collect debts, even trying to take Chu Ge, who had a high fever. That day, Chu Ge ran very far.
When her mother found her and brought her back, she discovered that Chu Ge's father had killed someone. She understood that her father had picked up the kitchen knife to resist only to protect her. The law could convict him, but it could never deny his love for Chu Ge." Chu Ge choked up, saying that no matter how difficult the future would be, she would definitely bravely and strongly continue to live her life.
Lu Xiaobei led the applause, looking at Chu Ge with a relieved expression. Wang Kai went home to fix Su Jiayi's door, only to find that her room was already empty. In the training room, Nezha was still training. Lu Xiaobei told him not to come anymore; they had been eliminated, and the team would eventually disband. Nezha left, but he left behind the wages Lu Xiaobei had promised him for that period. Xiao Feng and Lu Xiaobei connected again.
Xiao Feng asked him to meet someone, and from the other side came a young voice belonging to Lu Xiaobei. Xiao Feng brought the Lu Xiaobei from 2009 to connect with him, asking if it was 2020 on his end and wondering how he would be eleven years later. He didn't want to be in a wheelchair his whole life.
Lu Xiaobei smiled and told him that he wouldn't be, and that he would be like a normal person, and everything would be fine. Lu Xiaobei told himself that although he would suffer many setbacks and pain, everything would get better, and he must persist in his ideals. The younger Lu Xiaobei said his future dream was to become a professional e-sports player like Lu Xiaonan.
Lu Xiaobei choked up and shed tears, but firmly told him that all of this would come true. After the connection ended, Xiao Feng sent Lu Xiaobei home. Lu Xiaobei, sitting in his wheelchair, told himself that everything would be fine. The Steel Coin team was going to Shenzhen for a competition. Xiao Feng also brought his main computer, which was the only channel for time travel.
No one was willing to play the first five matches for Xu Wei until Monkey suddenly appeared. It turned out he was free because his wife's unit organized an outing for study. Monkey met An Lan and Chang Sha. Xiao Feng absolutely refused to let Monkey shake An Lan's hand, and everyone burst into laughter. Chang Sha, only realizing later, let out a prolonged, unending laugh. The college entrance examination was the day after tomorrow.
Lu Xiaobei reminded Chu Ge not to rush her final preparations, but just to get the scores she should. Chu Ge was a bit annoyed. She could never shake off her habit of being forgetful and careless; otherwise, she wouldn't have lost such an important necklace. Although the necklace was not valuable, it contained a photo of her and her father. At that time, she accidentally left it at the police station.
Because they moved, all the photos at home were lost, and now she didn't even have a single photo with her father. Lu Xiaobei immediately asked his father for the necklace, but because it had gotten wet, the photo was blurry and couldn't be restored. So Lu Xiaobei found Xiao Feng and asked him for a favor. Xiao Feng awkwardly insisted that he call him "Feng Ge."
Lu Xiaobei refused, and only when he offered An Lan's news as an exchange did Xiao Feng agree. In 2009, Chu Ge was bullied by her stepfather. However, after taking out the trash and returning home, Chu Ge found the necklace on the door. In the distance, there was only a small figure in a wheelchair leaving. When Chu Ge in 2020 woke up, she surprisingly found the necklace back on her.
Seeing the photo inside perfectly intact, Chu Ge was overjoyed and burst into tears. On the noisy train, Xiao Feng, An Lan, Xu Wei, and others bought standing tickets to save money. An Lan couldn't hold on and fell asleep leaning on Xiao Feng's shoulder. After arriving in Shenzhen, An Lan found a cheap hotel, which was very far from the competition venue. An Lan only booked one room.
After giving them the key, she planned to spend the night at a nearby internet café. Xiao Feng, of course, was not at ease and told her to sleep in the bed while the others slept on the floor. An Lan lay in bed and couldn't help but laugh when she saw Chang Sha hugging Xiao Feng tightly. The next day, everyone squeezed onto a bus, looking at the surrounding skyscrapers like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.
An Lan suddenly realized they were going the wrong way and quickly got off, telling the five players to take a taxi to rush to the competition venue. However, the participation passes were on An Lan. It was too late when An Lan and Xu Wei found out. Xiao Feng had to tell the staff that they were the team punished for cheating, who were there to play the "Hell Tournament," in order to get in.
The team's position was next to the speakers, and the staff wouldn't let them move. So, the Steel Coin team finished their first match amidst the noise; even with their headphones at maximum volume, they couldn't hear what their opponents were saying. According to the committee's arrangement, they would still be sitting in that spot tomorrow, and everyone complained endlessly.
To solve the problem, Xiao Feng took everyone to an internet café and started playing music, encouraging everyone to adapt to the rhythm. The next day, the Steel Coin team entered the competition venue with a dancing rhythm and successfully won the match. As soon as Lu Xiaobei and Chu Ge left the examination hall, they started looking for each other. Lu Xiaobei bravely stood up and walked towards Chu Ge. Chu Ge's eyes were filled with pleasant surprise.
The two embraced on a campus filled with flying papers, marking the end of the college entrance examination. CrossFire invited the GALA band to perform. They sang a song they had just written last night, which was not yet named. When they sang "Run forward, facing cold stares and ridicule," Xiao Feng was drawn to the lyrics. Lu Xiaobei in 2020 invited Chu Ge and Cheng Hao to watch a GALA band concert. A song titled "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart" ignited both time dimensions, inspiring them to pursue the beauty in their hearts, never compromising until they grew old.
