While modern young people often seek passionate love, Gu Wei preferred steady companionship—like Lin Jianguo and Ms. Li supporting each other through life. Gu Wei couldn’t promise a smooth future, but he pledged lifelong loyalty. Lin Zhixiao was moved to tears, and her simple “I do” united two pure and sincere hearts. That night, Lin Zhixiao sat on the bed staring at the can ring, replaying the proposal, unsure if it was all real.

Then Gu Wei suddenly called and knocked on the wall—the muffled sound made it feel like he was right beside her. Over the phone, Gu Wei called Lin Zhixiao “wife,” and she shyly responded, wishing each other good night. The next morning, Gu Wei was in a great mood when he arrived at the hospital. He asked Dr. Du about where to design an engagement ring and announced his upcoming marriage.

Gao Xi couldn’t hide her sadness and spoke with Gu Wei on the rooftop at noon, gradually letting go of her feelings for him. Gu Wei hoped Gao Xi would also find someone who loved her, as only mutual affection leaves the deepest impression. Gao Xi sincerely wished him well. But upon returning to her office and seeing a document on her desk, her face quickly darkened.

During dinner with Xiao Shan and Yin Xi, Lin Zhixiao shared that Gu Wei had proposed the night before. But the can ring was just too ridiculous. While Xiao Shan was genuinely happy for her best friend finding a home, her own relationship with Gu Xiao seemed hopeless. Upon learning that Gu Xiao had mortgaged his café, Lin Zhixiao was indignant on Xiao Shan’s behalf and suggested she call Gu Wei to get in touch with Gu Xiao.

But Xiao Shan didn’t think it necessary—she was never one to cling. After the gathering, Xiao Shan returned home alone and saw the once-lively café now deserted, quietly mourning the past. That night, Gu Wei suddenly proposed they set a wedding date and arrange for both families to meet, planning to register after Lin Zhixiao’s graduation. Lin Zhixiao didn’t notice any emotional changes in him and happily agreed, then informed her father of the marriage plans.

Lin Jianguo’s face instantly turned stern and silent upon hearing the news, while Lin’s mother was all smiles. Meanwhile, Gu Wei also told his parents he had decided to marry Lin Zhixiao and only hoped for their blessing, not opposition. The sudden news caught Lin Jianguo off guard, but after hearing his daughter’s heartfelt thoughts, he agreed to meet Gu Wei’s parents. Lin Zhixiao was overjoyed and in tears, surprised at how easily her father agreed.

Before the family meeting, Lin Zhixiao felt extremely nervous. She asked Gu Wei what kind of girls his parents liked, but Gu Wei comforted her not to worry. When she went to the living room for water, she found her father still reading there. He called her over and handed her cards detailing household expenses and property fees, giving her many instructions—almost like he was preparing for the worst. Finally, the day arrived for the family meeting.

But Gu Wei’s mother felt Lin Zhixiao was too young and suggested they wait two more years—implying disapproval of the engagement. The atmosphere turned awkward. Lin Jianguo, unlike his usual fiery self, calmly and politely expressed his views. He acknowledged that while his daughter was young, she was more mature than many her age and had always strived for her dreams without giving up. In his view, if the two truly loved each other, the parents should give their blessing.

No one can guarantee a marriage will last forever. The passion of dating fades, and it’s the ordinary routines of life that require someone to hold up the home. Lin Jianguo’s words moved Gu Wei’s parents, changing their initial rigid impressions. In the end, they agreed to the marriage. The atmosphere turned joyful, and Lin Zhixiao was so touched she cried again.

After the meeting, she happily walked home with Gu Wei, still amazed that her father had changed so much. But Gu Wei felt heavy-hearted. He tried several times to tell the truth but swallowed the words every time. Lin Zhixiao sensed something was wrong and ran to find him—only to learn that Lin Jianguo’s condition had worsened and the cancer had spread from his stomach to his liver.

Gu Wei had studied Lin Jianguo’s test results with Gao Xi and others, seeking a stable treatment plan, but after intense discussion, they all concluded surgery was pointless and only conservative treatment remained. Lin Jianguo’s life had entered the final countdown. Despite having the best medical conditions, there was nothing more they could do. Gu Wei contacted top medical experts from home and abroad repeatedly, seeking opinions and facing disappointment again and again. Accompanied by Gu Wei, Lin Zhixiao entered the hospice ward and finally understood his well-intentioned efforts.
