Speed and Love Episode 4 Recap
> Speed and Love Recap
Jiang Yinghan and her husband could not wait any longer for Jiang Mu and left. Jiang Mu was found crying silently in her room, and Jin Xin informed her that Jin Chao was at the Speeding Auto House. When Jiang Mu arrived, Jin Chao asked why she hadn't left. Jiang Mu looked at him and wished him a happy birthday.
She then revealed that Jin Qiang had decided, since Jin Chao didn't know his actual birthday, that he and Jiang Mu would celebrate their birthdays on the same day, hoping they would forever be together from dawn till dusk. Jin Chao then wished Jiang Mu a happy birthday as well. Jin Chao noticed Jiang Mu had been crying again, her eyes swollen like walnuts. He teasingly asked if it was his fault, but she kept him guessing.
She then asked if he was doing well and if he felt out of place after Jin Xin's birth. Jin Chao responded, "I'm used to it." He then decided to take Jiang Mu to a place where she could choose a strawberry cake, as the pastry chefs had already left for the night. She also expressed a desire to drink, and Jin Chao agreed, stating that the birthday girl gets what she wants.
As they lit the candles, Jiang Mu encouraged Jin Chao to make a wish. She then asked him for his real birthday, but he dismissed it as unimportant, saying he had lived over two decades without knowing, and now only cared about the day she entered the world. Jiang Mu expressed feeling sorry for him. For her first wish, she openly wished for them to soon discover Jin Chao's real birthday.
For her second, unspoken wish, Jin Chao beautifully verbalized it, expressing a desire for them to experience joy and bliss every year, never to be separated. Jin Chao opened two bottles of beer, and Jiang Mu admitted she did not handle alcohol well and might act wildly if she drank too much. Jin Chao, however, smiled and told her to drink as much as she wanted, assuring her he would be there to take care of her.
Jiang Mu then expressed concern that her mother might be deceived by Chris, whom she described as old and only rich. Jin Chao reassured her, saying that her mother was not one to settle and must genuinely like Chris to consider marrying him again, so Jiang Mu should trust her judgment.
Jiang Mu then pointed out that Jin Chao referred to their parents by their given names, realizing he had long known he was not their biological child, a fact he confirmed he knew even before her birth. Jiang Mu informed Jin Chao that her mother had sold their old house in Nanjing, leaving her feeling homeless, unwanted by her father and mother, and unloved by her brother.
Jin Chao, seeing her intoxicated, wanted to take her home, but she refused, insisting on staying at the garage. Jin Chao thought it was inappropriate, but Jiang Mu persisted, complaining that the water heater at their father's place was broken and she desperately needed a hot shower. Unable to resist her pleas, Jin Chao reluctantly agreed to let her stay for just one night. However, soon after, Jiang Mu discovered she had her period and was experiencing severe stomach pain.
Jin Chao rushed out to buy sanitary pads, and unsure which ones to choose, he grabbed several packs. Unbeknownst to him, while checking out, the proprietress slipped an unexpected item into his bag. After showering, Jiang Mu emerged wearing Jin Chao's clothes, which looked like a short dress on her, and quickly went to bed. Her stomach pain worsened, so Jin Chao looked up remedies on his phone.
He gently warmed her stomach with his hands and pressed on the Guanyuan acupoint to alleviate her discomfort. While doing so, a flashback revealed how Jin Qiang had brought Jin Chao home after his biological father, Charles, Jin Qiang's close friend, died in a racing accident. Jiang Yinghan, pregnant at the time, strongly opposed it but could not change Jin Qiang's mind.
Later, when Jiang Mu was nearly two and still couldn't speak, Jiang Yinghan grew worried, attributing it to Jin Chao's presence and prepared to send him away. But just as they were about to leave, Jiang Mu uttered her first words, calling out "Brother." The next morning, the garage employees arrived and began gossiping, having realized someone had spent the night in Jin Chao's bed, a place he usually strictly forbade others from entering.
Meanwhile, the mechanics were struggling to fix a car. Jiang Mu, having woken up, casually approached and diagnosed the problem as a loose intake pressure sensor, quickly resolving the issue to the surprise of everyone. Jin Chao then emerged, saw Jiang Mu still in his clothes, and quickly shielded her, instructing her to change into long pants before breakfast.
He then made her fried rice, and she asked him to retrieve her suitcase, hoping to extend her stay for a few more nights. Jin Chao, however, flatly refused, despite her attempts to bargain for at least two additional nights. Separately, Lin Sui's subordinates reported on his recent racing encounter with an unknown black car. Surveillance footage only showed a side profile of the driver wearing a baseball cap.
They confirmed the car was not one of theirs and was incredibly powerful, with over 1,000 HP and 2,000 lb-ft of torque, suggesting it might have a rare multi-rotor engine. Despite searching Manshi's largest modified car gatherings, they found no trace of it.
Lin Sui, determined, ordered his team to find the driver, stating there were no more than five people in Southeast Asia capable of fabricating such an engine, and he would turn Manshi upside down to find the individual.
