Parallel Love Episode 24 (Ending) Recap
> Parallel Love Recap
Upon hearing the news report about ball lightning appearing on August 1st and expected again on November 1st, Jiao Yang suddenly realized that Lin Miao's three-month deadline was actually November 1st, not October 31st. Lin Miao, who had been busy, then presented Jiao Yang with a week's worth of suit combinations.
She explained that there was a "suit for black Monday" for his bad moods and a "red Friday" suit to celebrate the upcoming weekend, hoping to save him time getting ready. Lin Miao regretted that she didn't have much time left and wondered what else she could do for him. Jiao Yang promised her that the inauguration ceremony would be on November 1st, and before that, they would spend every day happily together.
Jiao Yang then took Lin Miao to Johnny's bridal shop, surprising her. He explained that they would spend the day celebrating their "golden wedding anniversary," and they dressed up as an elderly couple. Jiao Yang confessed his desire to spend his entire life with her in this way, to remember her by his side until his last moments.
He thanked her for giving him the courage and ability to face and solve all problems, promising that no matter where she might be in the future, he would never forget her. Later, Secretary Yan, Zhao Yan, Ying Jun, and Ding Ding prepared a romantic surprise for Jiao Yang and Lin Miao. Jiao Yang led Lin Miao to the hotel rooftop, where fireworks erupted. At that moment, he knelt and proposed with a diamond ring.
He reminded her that she had called their meeting a miracle, and it was equally so for him. He wanted her to wear the ring as a symbol, ensuring that even if they were far apart, seeing it would remind her of him. He emphasized that tonight was just about their love, not about deadlines. Lin Miao, overwhelmed with emotion, happily accepted, saying "I do."
On October 31st, in front of their friends, Jiao Yang passionately delivered his wedding vows, expressing his wish to fulfill a lifetime's contract with her. Lin Miao, tears streaming, reciprocated, swearing to be his wife and love him until the end of time, no matter where she was. The next day, for the president's inauguration, Lin Miao was bustling about, making sure everything was perfect, as it was Jiao Yang's most important day.
As the ceremony began, Lin Miao watched Jiao Yang walk onto the stage, her eyes blurring. Jiao Yang addressed the audience, acknowledging that this was his third inauguration and expressing gratitude to someone who had always supported him. He spoke of understanding the true meaning of responsibility and gaining the courage to face challenges through her companionship. He concluded by inviting "Miss Lin Miao" to join him on stage.
Lin Miao, engrossed in her thoughts and physical discomfort, initially didn't hear him, but Secretary Yan quickly prompted her. As she struggled to walk towards the stage, she suddenly fainted. Jiao Yang rushed to her, carrying her out and driving her to the coffee shop where they first met.
Carrying her on his back, Jiao Yang listened as Lin Miao spoke of her dreams of them walking together, chatting and enjoying the scenery until they grew old, wishing they could continue on that path forever. Jiao Yang wanted to send her back to her own time, asking her not to forget him, even if she came to hate him.
He gave her practical advice: to buy comfortable heels, learn to cook healthy meals, eat on time, and not be rude to her superiors. He promised to take care of Hongyu Group and his father, as well as her grandmother. He thanked her for giving him the courage to take responsibility, for the best three months of his life, and for entering his world. Lin Miao, crying uncontrollably, told him she didn't want to go back.
Jiao Yang gently set Lin Miao down outside the coffee shop. Overcome with sadness, Lin Miao sent a text message to her future self, telling her the beginning of their story, but admitting she lacked the courage to write the ending. She feared that upon returning, she would forget the three months they shared, forget Jiao Yang, and forget that he was once a miracle in her life.
As she reached for the coffee shop door handle to stand up, she vanished. Jiao Yang watched her disappear, promising that even if she didn't remember their time, he would, and pleaded with her not to forget him. He returned home to find traces of Lin Miao everywhere. On a camera, he discovered a video Lin Miao had recorded.
In the video, she expressed her unexpected sadness about leaving, admitting that what she once thought was a cruel joke from God, the countdown, was in fact a precious gift. She wished for Jiao Yang to forget everything that happened in the past three months, wanting him to live his long life without the burden of sorrow for her. She confessed her deep love for him and for the person she became when she was with him, bidding him farewell.
Meanwhile, Lin Weijun tried to call Lin Miao but her phone went straight to voicemail. She left a message, revealing she had resigned from her job. She confessed that she no longer hated Lin Miao, but rather admired her, even hoping to become someone like her. She thanked Lin Miao for all the encouragement and help, promising to work hard and live a more exciting life.
As Lin Weijun was leaving the law firm, it started raining, and Lawyer Gu appeared with an umbrella, offering to take her home, saying he was happy to go wherever she went, hinting at a new romance. Jiao Yang had given everyone a holiday. Secretary Yan and Zhao Yan were on an overseas vacation, while Jiang Rou and Ying Jun were now together.
Jiao Yang, looking at Lin Miao's photo, missed her dearly, feeling a sense of solitude despite everyone else doing well. While on vacation, Secretary Yan built a sandcastle for Zhao Yan, who initially dismissed it, having moved past her "castle life." However, she then declared that she had met someone she could depend on for life, and with him, she would happily be a princess who couldn't even open her own bottle.
Secretary Yan, understanding her hint, promised to open bottle caps for her forever. Ying Jun took Jiang Rou to meet his family, and it was then that Jiang Rou discovered Cao Hua was Ying Jun's older sister. Several months later, Infinite Home Condo officially opened for sale, experiencing unexpectedly high demand. Jiang Rou was now pregnant, and Secretary Yan and Zhao Yan were married and on their honeymoon.
Ding Ding excitedly informed Jiao Yang that a client wanted to purchase unit 001 from the first phase, the unit Jiao Yang had reserved. The client claimed the apartment was "her home." Jiao Yang immediately went to meet her, and as anticipated, it was Lin Miao. Jiao Yang and Lin Miao finally had a home together, proving that no obstacle could prevent two lovers from reuniting, and every moment of their reunion was worth cherishing.
