After reconciling, the two became inseparable again, affectionate and loving. In fact, Gu Wei deeply admired Lin Jianguo and Ms. Li for being able to support each other. However, what he had been exposed to since childhood was only about learning to take responsibility and saving lives—he had never learned how to maintain a relationship. Through this recent incident, he was inspired by Lin Zhixiao in many ways and began to regard her as true family.

Moreover, Lin Zhixiao did not want to experience another breakup. She felt that kind of pain was worse than death, as if the world had lost all its color. So, she resolutely gave up the opportunity to study abroad and firmly made her final choice: no matter whether Gu Wei remains a doctor or not, she would always stay by his side.

In order to reassure Lin Zhixiao, Gu Wei showed her the results of the hospital’s investigation, proving that the crisis had passed. Lin Zhixiao was overjoyed and hugged Gu Wei tightly, feeling everything was turning for the better, and she spent the night at his place. The next morning, Gu Wei cuddled Lin Zhixiao, whispering sweet nothings as they started a new day of playful affection.

Since Lin Zhixiao's birthday was the next day, Gu Wei decided to celebrate it himself and even booked a special restaurant. Lin Zhixiao dressed up carefully at home and was just about to leave when her parents surprised her with a lavish birthday dinner, hoping she would stay. Not wanting to disappoint her parents, Lin Zhixiao texted Gu Wei to explain the situation. Gu Wei understood completely and said he was willing to keep waiting at the restaurant.

The food was quickly devoured, and Lin’s mother went to the kitchen to bring out the cake. Since there was no lighter at home, Lin Zhixiao didn’t mind and simply made a wish over the cake. Meanwhile, Gu Wei received another message from Lin Zhixiao, learning that she still couldn’t leave. He continued to wait at the restaurant. As time passed, Gu Wei reminisced about their time together—from the beginning of their relationship to the arguments and misunderstandings.

Each moment brought different feelings and deepened their appreciation for each other. Though Lin Zhixiao was younger than Gu Wei, he realized she had always been the one accompanying and supporting him as he started anew. Before he knew it, the restaurant had closed, and Lin Zhixiao still hadn’t shown up—not because she deliberately broke their promise, but because her parents wouldn’t let her leave.

While Lin Jianguo was away, Lin’s mother solemnly asked if she had reconciled with Gu Wei. Lin Zhixiao didn’t hide the truth and admitted they were back together, explaining there was a reason for their previous breakup and that Gu Wei was not as bad as she had imagined. Lin Zhixiao had made her decision after careful thought and hoped for her mother’s support.

Knowing her daughter was strong-willed, Lin’s mother silently accepted Gu Wei as her future son-in-law and urged her daughter to go on the date. But since the restaurant had already closed, the date was ruined. Lin Zhixiao hesitated briefly, then decided to wait for Gu Wei at his home. When Gu Wei came back upstairs with the cake, he found Lin Zhixiao asleep on the couch. The sight filled him with warmth.

Before Lin Zhixiao, the house was just a place to stay, but now it felt like a true home. Half-asleep, Lin Zhixiao sensed someone holding her. When she opened her eyes and saw that familiar, gentle smile, she immediately perked up and threw herself into his arms. Gu Wei expressed his love without reservation, and Lin Zhixiao responded joyfully, making him feel like his heart skipped a beat. Gu Wei jokingly explained her skipped heartbeat with medical terms.

Since it was their first birthday together, even though the date was ruined, Gu Wei still cooked longevity noodles himself and prepared the cake and candles. Lin Zhixiao made a wish with her hands clasped, and after blowing out the candles, Gu Wei eagerly asked what she had wished for. Besides wishing for her family’s health and safety, she hoped to be with Gu Wei forever. After eating the cake, they lingered in the kitchen.

Gu Wei hugged Lin Zhixiao from behind as they washed the dishes together. Relaxing on the couch afterward, Lin Zhixiao noticed Gu Wei’s chapped lips and offered to apply lip balm. But Gu Wei, being the typical straightforward guy, refused anything cosmetic, saying he could just drink more water.

Upon hearing that Gu Wei spent only about two hours a day with his water bottle outside of sleep, Lin Zhixiao used her math skills to argue that drinking water every fifteen minutes was impossible. She insisted on applying the lip balm for him and demonstrated first—only for Gu Wei to lean in and kiss her. As it got late, Lin Zhixiao planned to go home, but Gu Wei was reluctant to let her leave.

He regretted not giving her a memorable birthday and was also worried that they would have to date secretly in the future. Lin Zhixiao said that if she wanted her father’s blessing, she would have to stay the night openly—unless they were already married. Her words awakened Gu Wei, who then proposed using a soda can tab as a ring, kneeling on one knee.

Taking the chance, Gu Wei admitted he had first taken an interest in her, and as time passed, he unknowingly fell in love. He was grateful for their fateful encounter and love.
