> The First Frost Recap
Wen Yifan messaged Sang Yan that she would be busy with her internship and might not be able to play games as often. To avoid missing her, Sang Yan stayed online. He also knew which TV station she worked at and flew to Yihe monthly to buy newspapers with her articles, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. Wen Yifan felt guilty seeing Sang Yan's hand heavily bandaged, regretting that he always got hurt because of her.
She vowed to protect him in the future. In a taxi, Sang Yan acted like a spoiled child, and Wen Yifan, still upset about his recklessness, tried to pull her hand away from his grip, but he held on tightly. Back at her apartment, Wen Yifan cared for Sang Yan, making him take his medicine. When he went to take a shower, she worried about his injury getting wet. She pushed the bathroom door open, offering to help him wash.
She carefully wiped his body. After kissing passionately, Sang Yan stopped her, admitting he was afraid of what might happen and pushed Wen Yifan out of the bathroom. Che Xingde was taken into criminal custody, and Wen Yifan felt relieved. While reporting the news, she almost choked up. Che Xingde had confessed to raping and murdering Guo Ling after encountering her crying alone one night. He coerced his sister, Che Yanqin, into helping him bury the body.
In court, Che Xingde confessed to his crimes and was sentenced to death with deprived of political rights for life. Che Yanqin received a three-year prison sentence for helping destroy and fabricate evidence. Wen Yifan was present at the trial, finally finding closure. Guo Ling's father thanked Wen Yifan for her dedication to pursuing the truth. Wen Yifan picked up Sang Yan from work and saw Zheng Kejia talking to him.
Sang Yan mentioned that Zheng Kejia had suggested Wen Yifan visit home, but she was not ready yet. With his hand injured, Sang Yan asked Wen Yifan to buckle his seatbelt. As they strolled through the streets, Wen Yifan said that she was starting to truly enjoy her work as a journalist. Sang Yan asked if she still liked dancing, but Wen Yifan said she preferred her current career.
They stopped at a candy stand, where Wen Yifan bought a bag of sweets, describing them as not very sweet but with a strong milky flavor. Sang Yan, wanting to try them, leaned in and kissed her. Sang Yan hinted at marriage, and Wen Yifan seemed surprised. Sang Yan assured her that he would support her in anything she wanted to do, except changing partners, and that she should not settle for a life she didn't want.
Wen Yifan said that she had grown and matured, and with Sang Yan's support, she felt free and confident to pursue her dreams without worrying about what others thought. Sang Yan suggested that Wen Yifan spend the upcoming Lunar New Year with his family. She shyly agreed. Wen Yifan was asked by Director Gan to perform a dance at the station's annual gala and she could bring a plus one, and Wen Yifan invited Sang Yan.
