Rush to the Dead Summer Episode 16 Recap
> Rush to the Dead Summer Recap
Fu Xiaosi returned home, but the atmosphere was heavy. Fu Xiaosi's mother called a family meeting with everyone. Fu Xiaosi's mother learned from Li Yanran that Fu Xiaosi did not want to go abroad with Li Yanran. Fu Xiaosi's mother reprimanded Fu Xiaosi and asked him for the reason. Fu Xiaosi already knew in his heart that Li Yanran was behind Cheng Qiqi's confession to Lu Zhiang on the bulletin board.
He felt increasingly unfamiliar with such a scheming Li Yanran. Facing his mother's questioning, Fu Xiaosi argued against going abroad, saying he didn't think he was throwing a tantrum. Fu Xiaosi's mother, however, refused to listen to his explanation and questioned whether he was opposing her for other reasons. The mother and son's relationship was at a standstill. Fu Xiaosi's father stepped in as a peacemaker but was instead criticized by Fu Xiaosi's mother.
Fu Xiaosi's mother was firm, forcing Fu Xiaosi to go abroad for further studies, whether he wanted to or not, and follow the path she had laid out. Unable to get his mother's understanding and support, Fu Xiaosi felt depressed and wanted to confide in Li Xia but never found the courage. A new world unfolded, yet some confusion did not ease, and some words remained unspoken.
Early in the morning, Fu Xiaosi went downstairs calling for his parents but couldn't find them anywhere. It turned out that Fu Xiaosi's mother had secretly gone on a trip to force Fu Xiaosi to change his mind and comply. Fu Xiaosi relied on the instant noodles his father had left behind, but within a few days, he ran out of supplies.
Fu Xiaosi rushed to Lu Zhiang's house to get a meal but saw Lu Zhiang in low spirits at his doorstep. Lu Zhiang was not as enthusiastic and cheerful as before and had argued with his father. Fu Xiaosi asked Lu Zhiang's father what had happened at home, and seeing his solemn expression, Fu Xiaosi knew that something bad must have occurred in Lu Zhiang's family.
Li Xia was cleaning the house, staring at his newly bought phone and researching it. Just when he was bored, Yu Jian called to remind him to contact Fu Xiaosi and Lu Zhiang to go to the amusement park together. Li Xia mustered up the courage to call Fu Xiaosi. Fu Xiaosi told Li Xia that Lu Zhiang's mother was seriously ill and recuperating in the hospital.
Li Xia heard about what happened to Lu Zhiang's family and couldn't help but feel worried. Fu Xiaosi was with Lu Zhiang at the hospital. Seeing Lu Zhiang's low spirits, Fu Xiaosi proactively told him jokes to cheer him up. Lu Zhiang understood Fu Xiaosi's intention and pretended to be strong, but he couldn't let go of his worries.
Growth is not achieved in a day; facing the sudden turn of events with his mother's serious illness, Lu Zhiang's sudden maturity made Fu Xiaosi feel both familiar and unfamiliar. Seeing such a sad Lu Zhiang, comfort was useless. Li Xia, Yu Jian, and Fu Xiaosi came to the hospital to visit Lu Zhiang's mother.
Lu Zhiang's mother was very happy to see that Lu Zhiang had so many close friends; she wouldn't have to worry about him having no one to take care of him when she wasn't around. Yu Jian and Qing Tian accompanied Lu Zhiang's mother with songs for a pleasant and peaceful afternoon. Lu Zhiang and Fu Xiaosi also carefully fed Lu Zhiang's mother, as if all illnesses were driven away in the serene atmosphere.
Lu Zhiang's mother suddenly became critically ill. Fu Xiaosi looked at Lu Zhiang's lonely and heavy back, worried that he might never again see the carefree Lu Zhiang who loved to bicker with him. He didn't know what he could do to make Lu Zhiang happy. Li Xia told Fu Xiaosi that even if he was sad, he should pretend to be happy, as worrying would only bring more trouble to Lu Zhiang.
Lu Zhiang couldn't eat or sleep peacefully; always worried about his mother, he dared not fall asleep, fearing that everything would change when he woke up. Fu Xiaosi comforted Lu Zhiang and listened to his heartfelt words. Lu Zhiang knew the hardships his mother had endured for this family and how much effort she had poured into him.
He felt he could never repay her profound love and wished to exchange his own life for his mother's health, but now, facing his mother tormented by illness, he was powerless. In our long lives, we will become lovers and friends to others, but we only get one chance to be a child to our parents. Parental love accompanies a child throughout their life, and we always wish that those tightly held hands could never let go.
Seeing Lu Zhiang constantly under high pressure, Fu Xiaosi, Li Xia, and others took him to an amusement park to relax. With the companionship of his friends and their support, Lu Zhiang's taut nerves finally relaxed a little. Fu Xiaosi and the others rode the Ferris wheel together. Seeing Lu Zhiang's smiling face again brought great relief to Fu Xiaosi. Li Xia told Fu Xiaosi that he had a deep conversation with Fu Xiaosi's mother that day.
Li Xia always understood Fu Xiaosi's mother's worries and concerns for Fu Xiaosi. Li Xia believed that Fu Xiaosi had his own ideas, and his mother should support him. After their conversation, Li Xia understood Fu Xiaosi's mother's worries: as children grow up day by day, parents still toil for them. He promised to help persuade Fu Xiaosi, and the two reached a consensus. The time and space inside the Ferris wheel, all emotions remained in the changing compartments.
Each cabin was filled with happiness, and at the top of the Ferris wheel, wishes might just come true. Lu Zhiang returned to the hospital, only to find his mother not in her bed. Lu Zhiang's mind was in turmoil, and he anxiously inquired at the front desk.
