The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Episode 28 Recap
> The Starry Night, The Starry Sea Recap
Wu Julan felt uncomfortable again, and Shen Luo quickly called her grandma. Grandma brought Wu Julan back. She prepared a large water tank for Wu Julan and added precious medicinal herbs to the water, which could alleviate his condition. As soon as Wu Julan entered, Grandma tied him up. Seeing this, Wu Jingjing was especially surprised.
Grandma knew very well that Wu Julan wouldn't retrieve the spiritual pearl from Shen Luo, so she had to personally step in to help Wu Julan get it. Wu Jingjing persuaded Grandma to respect Wu Julan, saying that no matter what decision Wu Julan made, they should comply. However, Grandma felt that Wu Julan had been blinded by love. Grandma knelt before Wu Jingjing, begging her to save the Nuwu family.
Her family had protected mermen for generations, and if Wu Julan died, the family's honor would cease to exist. Wu Jingjing tearfully begged Grandma to be loyal to Wu Julan's soul. Grandma took the opportunity to knock Wu Jingjing unconscious and tied her up. Zhu Yiyang was about to be discharged from the hospital. He had been waiting for Zhou Buyan to pick him up, but she never came.
Zhu Yiyang called Zhou Buyan and only then learned that she was planning to leave the island. Zhu Yiyang limped quickly to the pier to stop Zhou Buyan. Zhou Buyan felt that matters of the heart couldn't be forced. In fact, in Zhou Buyan's heart, Zhu Yiyang was just an ordinary friend. Zhu Yiyang watched Zhou Buyan walk away, feeling unwilling and shouting in desperation. Grandma rushed to find Shen Luo.
She told Shen Luo that Wu Julan was in trouble and was currently at Wu Jingjing's house. Without a word, Shen Luo immediately rushed over. Just as Shen Luo was anxiously searching everywhere for Wu Julan, Grandma took the opportunity to drug Shen Luo and tied her up. Grandma was preparing to use the Black Demon Knife to retrieve the spiritual pearl from Shen Luo's body. Shen Luo expressed her willingness to return the spiritual pearl to Wu Julan.
Shen Luo proposed wanting to see Wu Julan one last time and say goodbye to him, but Grandma did not agree to Shen Luo's request. Just as Grandma was about to stab Shen Luo, Wu Julan, like a madman, crashed through the water tank and rushed over. Wu Jingjing cut her ropes with a broken cup and also ran over. Wu Julan snatched the Black Demon Knife from Grandma's hand and destroyed it. Wu Julan hugged Shen Luo tightly.
Grandma cried in desperation, and Wu Jingjing was deeply moved. Wu Julan declared that he would rather give up his own life to keep Shen Luo alive. He said that love and life are the same, with both flowers and thorns, but no matter what, they are willing to face it together. Wu Jingjing apologized for disobeying Grandma's wishes. Grandma was very sad and regretful, having lost the only chance to save Wu Julan.
Wu Jingjing understood Wu Julan's feelings; she believed that love is the greatest emotion in the world, capable of transcending everything. Physical life, in the face of love, is like a drop in the ocean, completely insignificant. Grandma knew very well that her actions could not be forgiven by Wu Julan. She knelt down and voluntarily requested to accept the family's judgment.
Wu Julan knew that everything she did was for him, but he believed that the meaning of life was to protect the people he loved, and that love was more important than life. Wu Julan had only one day left to live, and the Nuwu family had also served him for over 150 years. He told Grandma that from now on, she didn't need to follow his commands and should live out her golden years peacefully.
Finally, he bid Grandma an eternal farewell and left without looking back. Grandma didn't have the courage to watch Wu Julan leave. She asked Wu Jingjing to stay by Wu Julan's side, and then she returned to New York. Zhu Yiyang cried desperately because of his heartbreak. Jiang Yisheng gave Zhu Yiyang an idea: first, he should completely transform himself, and also send text messages to Zhou Buyan constantly. This steady effort would surely touch Zhou Buyan.
Indeed, under Zhu Yiyang's persistent pursuit, Zhou Buyan finally took the initiative to invite him to an art exhibition, and Zhu Yiyang was extremely happy. Wu Jingjing was officially transferred to work at the island hospital. Jiang Yisheng joyfully picked up Wu Jingjing and was reluctant to put her down for a long time. Zhu Yiyang thanked Jiang Yisheng. Jiang Yisheng asked Zhu Yiyang to help him stage an act to trick Wu Jingjing, pretending he had lovesickness.
Zhu Yiyang's poor acting couldn't fool Wu Jingjing, and he was quickly exposed. In fact, Jiang Yisheng wanted to seize the opportunity to propose to Wu Jingjing, and unexpectedly, Wu Jingjing readily agreed. Colleagues came over to congratulate them, and Jiang Yisheng and Wu Jingjing hugged and kissed. Shen Luo knew that Wu Julan had only one day left. She decided to face it happily. Shen Luo searched everywhere for Wu Julan at home but couldn't find him, thinking he had vanished. Shen Luo was extremely anxious.
