Rush to the Dead Summer Episode 45 Recap
> Rush to the Dead Summer Recap
Duan Qiao knelt on one knee, proposing to his beloved Yu Jian with true love. He wanted to walk hand in hand with Yu Jian for the rest of their lives; fame and reputation seemed so insignificant when he faced her. Yu Jian was deeply touched by Duan Qiao's selfless devotion over the years. She accepted Duan Qiao's proposal, a scene she had always dreamt of. Duan Qiao and Yu Jian happily held hands.
On their way to register their marriage, Duan Qiao excused himself, claiming he had something to do, to prepare a surprise for Yu Jian. Yu Jian joyfully watched Duan Qiao run towards her from the other side of the road. However, tragedy struck at that very moment. Duan Qiao was in a car accident and was severely injured. He passed away unexpectedly before he could enjoy the time of forever having Yu Jian.
Faced with this situation, Yu Jian sobbed uncontrollably, realizing she would be alone from now on. Yu Jian would spend the rest of her life in solitude. Yu Jian mourned Duan Qiao with a heavy heart. Just as they found happiness, God cruelly stripped two lovers of their right to be together.
From their first chance encounter in Shanghai, to becoming close colleagues, and finally developing into lovers, every little bit of their journey represented the courage Duan Qiao bestowed upon Yu Jian when she was most lonely, helpless, sad, and desperate. But now, without Duan Qiao's companionship, Yu Jian had lost all hope for life and the courage to move forward.
Yu Jian opened the last surprise Duan Qiao had prepared for her before he died, something he had planned for a long time, even willing to sacrifice his life for it. It was Duan Qiao's meticulous record of Yu Jian's daily life: her joys, sorrows, and anger, the brilliance when she sang. Every tiny detail about Yu Jian, Duan Qiao had carefully documented. There are three things in life that cannot be retained.
If Yu Jian could give her life to Duan Qiao, would they no longer be separated? Thousands of recurring dark nights, yet no end in sight. Yan Mo was still immersed in the sorrow of Lu Zhiang's departure. Her long-awaited father finally returned, and he was now her only spiritual pillar. Alan and Yan Mo returned to the company.
Carol threatened Alan, saying that if General Manager He and the company veterans couldn't gain control of Litong, they would leave the company, constantly fanning the flames. Alan kindly advised General Manager He to reconsider, but General Manager He, thinking he had victory in his grasp, completely ignored Alan's words. After some consideration, Alan publicly announced that he would yield the position of Litong's General Manager to General Manager He.
He didn't understand what purpose General Manager He had in meticulously plotting to force him out. Carol provoked Alan, humiliating him in public. Alan didn't care about Carol's imperious manner. To vent his anger for her father, Yan Mo angrily cursed Carol for being small-minded.
Just as Alan was feeling smug, Alan announced to everyone that General Manager He was fired and Carol was dismissed by Litong, exposing their scheme of colluding with the legal department to damage the company's interests. General Manager He thought he still had veteran employees to back him up, so he straightened his back and prepared to leave. Little did he know that no one from the company's senior management followed him.
General Manager He and Carol were outmaneuvered and stormed out, slamming the door. Litong's hard work was finally preserved. Cheng Qiqi learned of Carol's dismissal from her post and feared that she too would suffer the same fate, facing career setbacks. Cheng Qiqi proactively sought out Alan, feigning pitifulness in front of him, and pleaded with him to give her a chance to continue her career.
Alan was well aware of Cheng Qiqi's true character, but he didn't expose her lies and agreed to let her stay and develop further. Carol understood Cheng Qiqi's reasons for self-preservation: her ambition to become famous, for which Cheng Qiqi was willing to pay any price. Carol advised Cheng Qiqi to look out for herself, warning her that one day, she would also end up like her.
Yan Mo was restless, unable to sleep each night, accompanied by her longing for Lu Zhiang. Her father, Alan, meticulously stayed by her side. Seeing Yan Mo grow thinner day by day, Alan, as a father, was filled with heartache. Everyone experiences low points, but to fully bounce back from a slump is by no means easy; to rise from the ashes requires sufficient courage.
Many changes only occur after experiencing certain events, just as after hitting a reef, there will still be new shores to reach one's destination. The company investigated the plagiarism case involving Fu Xiaosi, clearing his name. Fu Xiaosi requested a long leave from the company and returned to Asakawa No. 1 Middle School, where he once lived. Asakawa still looked the same as it did originally.
Looking at the familiar scenery, Lu Zhiang's mischievous smile seemed to appear before Fu Xiaosi's eyes as if it were yesterday, but that was a time he could never go back to. Li Xia was no longer by Fu Xiaosi's side, and Fu Xiaosi's heart felt empty. Fu Xiaosi found the words Li Xia had secretly written in Li Xia's chair from back then.
It turned out that Li Xia's greatest fortune had once been meeting Fu Xiaosi and loving him with all his strength, but now Fu Xiaosi had completely lost Li Xia. If he could take a time-traveling train back to the original departure platform, would everything truly be the same as it once was?
