The issue between the doctor and patient had been resolved, but Lin Zhixiao’s attitude toward Gu Wei remained unchanged. She wanted him to understand his mistake. Unfortunately, Gu Wei didn’t realize this and tried to handle the cold war conservatively—apologizing without reflecting. Lin Zhixiao visited Shao Jiang’s company, determined to go to Germany. Unexpectedly, Gu Wei showed up and persistently waited at the door from morning until noon. Female colleagues noticed him and gossiped.

Lin Zhixiao, worried about the impact, went out to ask him to stop pestering her. Shao Jiang also came to advise him to leave. Seeing Gu Wei’s dejected back, Lin Zhixiao felt especially uncomfortable. Shao Jiang knew she couldn’t let go but was pretending not to care.

Lin Zhixiao didn’t want to talk about Gu Wei anymore, so she changed the subject and asked about Shao Jiang and An Fei’s relationship, sincerely hoping he’d find happiness with someone he could spend his life with. Encouraged by Lin Zhixiao’s words, Shao Jiang reevaluated his feelings and invited An Fei to dinner. Meanwhile, when Lin Zhixiao returned home, her parents were heading out for a walk.

Her mother noticed the overseas documents in her hand and worried that she was upset. Lin Zhixiao pretended to be cheerful and went back to pack. Trying to mend their relationship, Gu Wei sent flowers to Lin Zhixiao, but she threw them at the door. That plan failed, so Gu Wei came up with another: he applied a hot towel to his face, slapped himself to look feverish, and went to borrow fever medicine from Lin Zhixiao.

She didn’t believe he was sick and mocked him for sending flowers earlier. No matter how he explained, she remained firm and reiterated their breakup, telling him not to bother her again. Disappointed, Gu Wei saw a glass cup on the table and was filled with renewed hope. Sure enough, Lin Zhixiao came by after hearing a sound. Seeing broken glass all over the floor and Gu Wei looking dazed, she panicked.

Gu Wei hugged her and pretended to be weak, lying on the bed with her help. While she got water, he secretly swapped the fever medicine with vitamins. Lin Zhixiao found the tablets strange but didn’t think too much. After everything was settled, she prepared to leave, but Gu Wei grabbed her hand, pitifully asking for porridge. Since he seemed ill, she agreed to cook. As soon as she stepped out, Gu Wei perked up and smiled smugly.

However, when he had been switching the pills, some had spilled on the bed. Though he tried to hide them under the blanket, Lin Zhixiao eventually noticed. After discovering he was faking illness, Gu Wei chased after her to explain. But Lin Zhixiao beat him to it, saying she was going to Germany and that there would be no more chances between them. Hearing her resolute words, Gu Wei gave up on the relationship and wished her well.

Lin Zhixiao held back tears as she left. Gu Wei stood there for a long time, remembering their sweet moments, feeling both angry and sad, and removed all the pins from their memory board. Elsewhere, Lin Zhixiao stared at a cola bottle with a love message and took off the Buddhist prayer bracelet, reminiscing the good times. At that moment, a lawyer arrived at the café representing Gu Xiao’s father, revealing that Gu Xiao had mortgaged the café.

Xiao Shan was shocked and only understood why Gu Xiao hadn’t answered his phone after checking the contract. Yin Xi ran into Jin Shi again at the library and learned he had signed with a company in Shanghai and would move after graduation. Jin Shi, still hopeful, tried to talk to her, but Yin Xi remained tough and unwilling to compromise, failing to cherish their relationship. Shao Jiang asked Lin Zhixiao how her application was going and sensed her hesitation.

After much thought, she decided not to go to Germany. Even if she left the country, her heart would still be here. An Fei respected her decision and empathized. Lin Zhixiao saw that the doctor-patient dispute was still trending online and mistakenly thought the family hadn’t withdrawn the complaint. She rushed to the hospital and, through Dr. Du, found the patient’s room. Dr. Du feared conflict and hurried to find Gu Wei.

Inside, Lin Zhixiao met the elderly couple caring for the patient and introduced herself directly. She knew her words might not change anything but still wanted to try. She spoke about her father’s hospital experience, from tests to diagnosis, and how Gu Wei had seriously suspected Lin Jianguo might have stomach cancer. No one wants to believe a loved one is seriously ill, but denial changes nothing.

Lin Zhixiao hoped to help them understand that Gu Wei was a responsible and dedicated doctor, who had to withstand public scrutiny and internal pressure from the hospital. She added that Gu Wei was far from perfect and had many flaws, but he always selflessly cared for his patients, even at his own expense. Gu Wei, standing at the door, was deeply moved by every word.

Before Lin Zhixiao could finish, he took her out and told her the patient’s family had withdrawn the lawsuit. Knowing Gu Wei was no longer at risk, Lin Zhixiao finally relaxed. After all the misunderstandings, they were finally able to confront their feelings and reconcile, returning to their loving state. Meanwhile, Gao Xi visited Dr. Yan to thank him for changing her opinion of him, now looking at him with admiration.
