Tender Light Episode 22 Recap
> Tender Light Recap
Day after day, Hu Xiu finally reached the end of her life. As she lay in bed unattended, Nan Ya walked in from outside, called her "Auntie," and maintained her usual elegant and calm demeanor. At this moment, Lin Fanglu rewatched the interrogation video of Nan Ya, and a segment where Nan Ya commented on her feelings for Zhou Luo reached Zhou Luo's ears word for word, breaking his heart.
On the night of the train incident, Zhou Luo accompanied Nan Ya after swimming in the cold river. As soon as they got ashore, he felt a burning sensation on his skin, as if every cell in his body had been activated. Nan Ya told Zhou Luo that she came here to remind herself that death is easy, but she still has her daughter Wan Wan, so she doesn't have the freedom to die.
The person who truly deserves to die is someone else. Subsequently, Nan Ya personally went to the Women's Federation to seek legal rights protection. Lawyer Gao believed that winning custody in the previous divorce was a sure thing, but since the train station incident occurred, it would likely become very difficult. She was now unable to clear her name, and no one was willing to believe that Xu Yi would use such a shameful fact to smear himself.
Although Nan Ya was suffering from Xu Yi's domestic violence, Lawyer Gao believed that under the extreme circumstances of the so-called catching in the act, it could be considered justifiable cause. Even if the nature of domestic violence was confirmed, Nan Ya had become the party at fault for the marital breakdown. Coupled with no stable income, she had no advantage in winning custody of the child.
Meanwhile, Zhou Luo was searching for many divorce cases similar to Nan Ya's online at an internet cafe. Suddenly, he heard men in the next booth discussing Nan Ya with extremely vulgar content, which he couldn't bear. He was so enraged that he beat the men up. The next day after school, Chen Jun reminded him that he was overly concerned about Nan Ya, and as a brother, he hoped Zhou Luo would give up his unrealistic dream.
Nan Ya went to Xu Yi to sign the divorce agreement, but was rejected by him. Zhou Luo personally organized the case files and sent them to Nan Ya, discovering a piece of evidence that was particularly beneficial to her: Xu Yi and Chen Ling had an affair at the Seagull Hotel in the city. Nan Ya saw this but didn't appreciate it at all.
She warned Zhou Luo not to go near Wan Wan again and not to come looking for her in the middle of the night. Because of this, they argued and parted unhappily. During this time, Xu Yi was swamped with work on the bridge project. Nan Ya came to see Xu Yi as usual, insisting that he sign the divorce agreement. Xu Yi directly pushed Nan Ya away and hosted a banquet for leaders.
Unexpectedly, Nan Ya made a scene at the dinner and even waited at the restaurant for half the night. She didn't see Xu Yi until the banquet ended, as he had already slipped away through the back door. On a night of torrential rain, Nan Ya walked listlessly on the street. Zhou Luo rushed over with an umbrella but was pushed away by Nan Ya. Because of Nan Ya's attitude, Zhou Luo felt completely broken.
He couldn't understand why she couldn't see his genuine feelings. Nan Ya bluntly said that she didn't want to see him looking self-pitying, because love is insignificant in the face of suffering. The next morning, Zhou Luo suddenly rushed into the clothing store and passionately confessed his love to Nan Ya, stating that no matter what Nan Ya thought, he couldn't bear to see her suffer here.
He vowed that one day he would take her away from Qingshui Town, away from this place of sorrow and conflict. Since then, Zhou Luo and Chen Jun started following Xu Yi, trying to gather evidence of his crimes. The day Nan Ya returned home, she received a poetry collection, finding it difficult to respond to Zhou Luo's feelings. Not long after, Wan Wan disappeared while playing near the house.
Nan Ya was distraught and ran to ask Lin Guixiang and others if they had seen Wan Wan. Zhou Luo gathered everyone to help search, but after a whole day, they found nothing. Reminded by Zhou Luo's father, they instantly thought of Xu Yi. Indeed, Xu Yi admitted on the phone that he had taken Wan Wan and even used this to threaten Nan Ya into giving up the idea of divorce.
Because Wan Wan was not in good health, everyone immediately contacted the police and accompanied Nan Ya to Shengda Construction Engineering Company. However, the police refused to dispatch officers, citing that Nan Ya and Xu Yi were not divorced. Therefore, everyone decided to force their way into the company to get the child back. Unexpectedly, the company gate was locked, and they couldn't determine Xu Yi's whereabouts. That night, Nan Ya was like a soulless walking corpse, her heart solely focused on her daughter's safety.
