The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Episode 27 Recap
> The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Recap
Day broke, and Shen Luo woke up amidst the chirping birds and fragrant flowers. She snuggled tightly against Wu Julan's chest, not wanting to open her eyes, for fear that this moment of happiness would quietly slip away. The island residents discovered the two of them and immediately called Zhou Buwen. Zhou Buwen had a sleepless night. He was contemplating his next move against Wu Julan.
After receiving the call from the residents, he took out the potion left by An Zuo that could instantly enhance one's strength. He injected it into his body without hesitation, then came to challenge Wu Julan to a duel. By the time Wu Julan sensed someone approaching them, it was too late. Zhou Buwen and the residents had already surrounded him and Shen Luo. Zhou Buwen clamored that Wu Julan was the murderer and should be executed on the spot.
Shen Luo quickly shielded Wu Julan and explained to everyone. The residents, incited by Zhou Buwen, also shouted loudly, demanding to capture Wu Julan. At this moment, Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing brought over the real culprit. He admitted that Zhou Buwen had instigated him to attack Zhu Yiyang and also to mimic the claw marks of a merman. Zhou Buwen angrily grabbed the man's neck, continuing to frame Wu Julan.
Zhou Buyan arrived in time, producing a video of Zhou Buwen abandoning Shen Luo's grandfather to die. After watching it, Shen Luo was so enraged she wanted to hit Zhou Buwen. Everyone also began to denounce Zhou Buwen. Seeing his plot exposed, Zhou Buwen injured the surrounding residents, then took Shen Luo hostage amidst the chaos and fled. Only after saving the residents did Wu Julan realize Shen Luo was gone.
He pursued her all the way to an abandoned factory. Zhou Buwen knew he couldn't have Shen Luo, he only wanted to bring about a mutual destruction. He cornered Shen Luo to a dead end, and she was on the verge of falling. Wu Julan arrived in time. The deranged Zhou Buwen demanded Wu Julan dig out his heart in exchange for Shen Luo's freedom.
As Wu Julan had already pierced his chest and was about to continue, Shen Luo bit Zhou Buwen's hand hard. Zhou Buwen, in pain, let go. Just as Shen Luo was about to fall down the building, Wu Julan rushed over and grabbed Shen Luo, but Zhou Buwen stabbed him in the back. Wu Julan exerted all his strength to pull Shen Luo up, then fought Zhou Buwen. Having used the potion, Zhou Buwen possessed astonishing strength.
He lifted Wu Julan high and threw him violently, then pulled out a dagger to stab Wu Julan. Shen Luo picked up a brick and hit Zhou Buwen. Wu Julan seized the opportunity to knock Zhou Buwen down. At this moment, Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing arrived with the police, bringing Zhou Buwen to justice. As he was taken away, Zhou Buwen still desperately shouted for Shen Luo to accept his feelings.
He also claimed that the spiritual pearl was inside Shen Luo, and only one of them could survive. Wu Jingjing told Shen Luo everything, exactly as it happened. Wu Julan's spiritual pearl had been stolen by his good friend Du Xiaolin. He came to the island and changed his name to Shen Lin, who was Shen Luo's ancestor. Shen Luo wanted to return the spiritual pearl to Wu Julan.
Wu Jingjing told her that she would die without the spiritual pearl. Wu Julan was severely injured, and his condition was very poor. Shen Luo cried and scolded Wu Julan for being foolish. She understood why Wu Julan had rejected her repeatedly. It turned out he didn't want to take Shen Luo's spiritual pearl; he had given his own life to Shen Luo. Shen Luo was overwhelmed with emotions and cried profusely while holding Wu Julan.
As soon as Zhu Yiyang woke up, he started looking everywhere for the music box. At this moment, Zhou Buyan came to see him, bringing the music box. Zhou Buyan complained that Zhu Yiyang had been beaten to a pulp like a pig's head for her music box, yet still wouldn't let go of it. She decided to accept this gift, and told Zhu Yiyang the news of Zhou Buwen's arrest, instructing Zhu Yiyang to recuperate peacefully.
Jiang Yisheng fell into deep self-reproach over Zhou Buwen's matter. He regretted not having properly advised Zhou Buwen. Wu Jingjing told him that Zhou Buwen had gone mad in prison, which was caused by the injected potion, and comforted Jiang Yisheng, saying that everyone's inner demons could only be defeated by themselves. Wu Julan decided to arrange his affairs clearly before his death. He wanted to transfer all his assets to Shen Luo.
Grandma brought him a will for the property transfer for him to sign and seal. Wu Julan hoped Grandma could help Shen Luo in the future. Shen Luo, hearing this from outside, felt a mix of emotions. She secretly resolved to return the spiritual pearl to Wu Julan. That evening, Shen Luo asked Wu Julan to go for a walk with her. The two of them went to a small grove.
Shen Luo took out a coin and proposed a bet with Wu Julan. Whoever lost would have to grant the other a wish. Shen Luo won, and she requested to see the fireflies from that day again. The night was quiet, with only occasional chirps of crickets. Only countless fireflies in the sky emitted a faint green light, glittering brightly. Shen Luo was very happy. Wu Julan kissed Shen Luo's forehead.
Shen Luo seized the opportunity to ask Wu Julan to close his eyes. Just as she was about to kiss Wu Julan, hoping to return the spiritual pearl to him through a kiss of true love, Wu Julan dodged in time, having guessed Shen Luo's good intentions. Wu Julan stated that he had lived for over a thousand years, experienced too much birth, aging, sickness, and death, and would have no regrets even if he departed.
He could give up everything for Shen Luo, as long as she lived well. Upon hearing this, Shen Luo was both touched and saddened. She hugged Wu Julan tightly, expressing her desire to share half of her life with him so they could live together. Wu Julan was deeply moved, and he decided to marry Shen Luo. The next day, Shen Luo and Wu Julan's wedding was held again. The island residents, invited by Wu Julan, also rushed to attend.
As the wedding music began, Shen Luo appeared before everyone like a beautiful angel. Blushingly, she walked towards her groom, holding a bouquet. Behind her were four children, scattering petals as they walked. Wu Julan watched Shen Luo slowly walk towards him, and all his memories with Shen Luo flashed through his mind. Grandma officiated their wedding. Wu Julan and Shen Luo both wholeheartedly answered 'I do' to their wedding vows.
Finally, they placed seashell rings, unique to them, on each other's fingers. Everyone cheered together, blessing their hard-won happiness. Wu Julan kissed Shen Luo's forehead. Zhu Yiyang seized the opportunity to hold Zhou Buyan's hand. Zhou Buyan showed a shy, happy smile. Jiang Yisheng also planned to propose to Wu Jingjing. That evening, Wu Julan and Shen Luo snuggled by the sea. They talked about Wu Julan drinking with Li Bai.
Shen Luo regretted not being born earlier so she could have met Wu Julan sooner. Shen Luo asked Wu Julan to transform into a merman for her to see. Saying this, she jumped into the sea. Immediately after, Wu Julan also transformed into a merman and swam alongside Shen Luo. Small fish swam around them, cheering for them and blessing them. Shen Luo grew tired and fell asleep leaning on Wu Julan.
Wu Julan took off the jade pendant from his neck and placed it on Shen Luo. The jade pendant shone brightly. Wu Julan knew deep down that this was destiny's arrangement, and Shen Luo was the person he had been waiting for. The next day, Shen Luo happily held the jade pendant on her neck and asked Wu Julan why he gave his precious item to her.
Wu Julan replied that it was returning to its rightful owner, and stated that Shen Luo was his wife, and his entire being belonged to Shen Luo. After speaking, Wu Julan began to feel unwell again.
