Sunshine by My Side Episode 16 Recap
> Sunshine by My Side Recap
Hao Junjie intended to set up Fang Mu and Jian Bing, so he and Jian Shuang deliberately stayed out of sight to observe them. However, Jian Bing did not wait for Jian Shuang and quickly left after excusing herself from Fang Mu. Knowing the matchmaking had failed, Hao Junjie decided to take Jian Shuang back for tutoring. Jian Shuang, seeing a youth hockey team training, eagerly joined them to offer guidance, and Hao Junjie reluctantly accompanied her.
They enjoyed a vigorous game, but Jian Shuang, still wanting to play, was eventually forced back to tutoring by Hao Junjie. Meanwhile, Song Chen and Pan Rou's relationship deepened. While shopping, Pan Rou casually mentioned Sheng Yang's recent low spirits, suspecting that Jian Bing had rejected his confession. Song Chen confirmed this was true, leading Pan Rou to finally give up on Sheng Yang.
She playfully complained that Song Chen wasn't wearing the shirt she bought for him, unaware that he was wearing it as an undershirt. Jian Bing considered sending Sheng Yang a message but ultimately refrained, deleting her typed words. At the same time, Sheng Yang also contemplated messaging Jian Bing, only to delete his own draft. Sheng Yang immersed himself in work to numb his sadness, a coping mechanism Pan Rou and Song Chen both observed.
Pan Rou remarked on Sheng Yang’s intense work ethic, describing him as the type who works himself to death when heartbroken. Jian Bing worked late into the night on a shoot. Her staff urged her to rest, but she insisted on continuing to adjust the settings. Mr. Jia, a client on set, expressed his impatience with the unpredictable weather and the child actor's inconsistent performance.
Jian Bing firmly stated that her job was to get the shot right and asked Mr. Jia to wait elsewhere. Suddenly, a downpour began, sending the children and parents scattering for cover. Amidst the chaos, a wire on the ground was accidentally snagged, causing a light rig to topple.
Jian Bing, seeing a little girl named Lele separated from her mother and in the path of the falling lights, bravely rushed forward to shield her, sustaining a heavy blow to her head. The Mid-Autumn Boyue Tea promotion event proceeded as planned, featuring a popular rock band. Wang Youde, Sheng Yang's team leader, praised Sheng Yang's hard work and urged him to rest at the coffee shop upstairs. Song Chen followed him, advising him to move on from his heartbreak.
While scrolling through his phone, Sheng Yang saw a post about Jian Bing's injury on her video account and immediately left the event. Liang Shanshan and Xue Yiming rushed to the hospital. A doctor confirmed Jian Bing suffered a minor concussion with no serious damage and advised bed rest. Meanwhile, some parents from the shoot demanded compensation and CT scans for their children.
Xue Yiming stepped forward, identifying himself as the company's boss, and assured everyone he would take full responsibility. When Jian Bing woke up, she immediately asked about Lele and was relieved to hear the girl was unharmed. Lele's mother profusely thanked Jian Bing, who accepted full responsibility for the accident. Xue Yiming then instructed Liang Shanshan to take Jian Bing home to rest while he handled the upset parents.
Later, Liang Shanshan and Xue Yiming discussed the negative publicity the incident was generating online. Xue Yiming revealed his plan to use his personal funds, money he received from his divorce with Jian Bing, to cover the company's financial losses, asking Liang Shanshan not to tell Jian Bing. Sheng Yang waited outside Jian Bing's building. He spoke to Pan Rou on the phone, confirming Jian Bing was alright but admitting it would be too awkward to see her.
Inside, Jian Bing called her assistant and learned that several parents were still at the hospital demanding payment. Deciding she had to go back, she left her apartment and was surprised to find Sheng Yang downstairs. Unable to drive due to her injury, she asked him to take her to the hospital. At the hospital, Jian Bing saw Xue Yiming and Liang Shanshan in a close conversation, during which Liang Shanshan transferred money to Xue Yiming's account.
Seeing her ex-husband and best friend in such an intimate moment, Jian Bing felt a complex mix of emotions. Without a word, she turned and left, asking Sheng Yang to take her for Luosifen noodles. Back at the promotional event, Pan Rou covered for Sheng Yang's absence. As the host announced lucky fans, overly enthusiastic members of the crowd rushed the stage, causing it to suddenly collapse. Amid the chaos and injuries, Song Chen frantically tried to call Sheng Yang. Reaching him via a WeChat voice call, he yelled, "The stage collapsed!"
