KJ2025 So many tears these last two episodes.😭sang Ning heads to her school and says she will start a live broadcast when she receives 10,000 views. Once received, she tells of her wish to be in a specific class in law school. She wants to be in a class of the professor she admires most. She is looking forward to working hard and having him be her mentor. What she was not prepared for was an insidious evil man who had the legal know how to circumvent the law and accost young female students. His treachery and complete deceit with this is reprehensible. He completely undermined Sang Ning’s work ethic and made her feel like trash. He sexually assaulted her and made her feel that without his generosity she would never be able to succeed. He made her feel so dirty she did not think she could be saved. And he pushed her to a mental breaking point which is how Liu Ye became the inadvertent scapegoat to her need to punish and report her professor. She never even saw Liu Ye. She only saw the evil teacher invading her space and scaring her. As she tells her story the time agents are more understanding. They realize the stress she had been under and her confused mental state. They recognized the bravery she showed exposing him for what he truly was— a predator disguised as a mentor. It turned out that she was far from the first young woman he abused and others came forward as they presented their stories to the police. He is removed from his office and escorted out. I can only hope he gets the judgment he richly deserves in this life and the next. Qiao Ling meets Sang Ning at Liu Ye’s house and they share a very heartfelt conversation. Sang Ning asks to take his cats as the last thing she could do for him and Qiao Ling agrees. These circumstances are so tragic, but Sang Ning for the first time in a very long while has hope for her future and gratitude in her heart for them saving her. Lu Guang finds one photo that will let Qiao Ling tell Liu Ye good bye. Cheng Xiao Si finds out what his topic was and has it sent to QL’s inbox. They chat on the patio drinking beer and talking about wishes. CXS wants LY to make a different name for his topic and has him paint it on a graffiti wall as a memorial. He knows he can’t change the fateful event but he helps QL cherish every prior moment til LY departs for the subway. The trio heads to the graffiti wall to see the name and it is as beautiful and sweet as LY’s spirit. While I hate the mercenary chat of the book sellers, I am happy that LY’s words will be loved as he wished. Sang Ning was successful in clearing his name and I think he is smiling down on them all.

Liu Ye’s decision was so tragic. His young life ended because the pain of evil intentions was too great for him to bear, even with his friends trying to help. Once he considered himself truly guilty, his gentle spirit could not live with the thought of hurting another. Qiao Ling is taking it very hard. While eating, she and Lu Guang are both taking things hard and for once it is Cheng Xiao Si being the voice of reason; that they must not fall and give up but rise to fight on. QL goes to work and interrupts a live broadcast because it was the last show Liu Ye had worked on. She learned that the crane machine had been set up for her to always win. Liu Ye loved bringing her joy in simple ways. Qiao Ling shares with his brother that Liu Ye was a very good person and that he should never doubt that. Sang Ning is distraught at the outcome of her accusation. She has tried to make it right but the general public bullied her as much as Liu Ye. After talking to the time trio she has figured out another course to get the truth out there to clear Liu Ye’s name. And now we learn of her oppressor.

After many attempts they finally found one who was taking upskirt pics of girls on the train. A guy was disguising himself as female to get close to women and record them unaware. Liu Ye gets a call from home and his sibling is getting in fights at school defending him. Liu Ye is struggling to hold on as his book sales plummet and he now has no means to make a living and his dream through his writing is becoming dust before his eyes. Time agents and Liu Ye find themselves together on the same train and get the disguised guy to the cops showing how he recorded women. He denied Sang Ning’s case and referred to himself as a gentleman admitting what he had done but not what he hadn’t, tho he would accept a bribe to say he had. He considered himself and LY of a similar nature in assaulting girls. Liu Ye is now losing it and thinking the guy is setting him up to hurt him, but I think the guy at the time was just diverting attention to hide his own crime. LY’s brief moment of respite at clearing his name is now gone and the Time agent trio are having to admit no conclusive evidence presented itself to clear him. The guy also was recording not touching so it seems they have not found the right person yet. Liu Ye irrationally concludes he is guilty because no proof can be found that he is innocent. It is not looking good for any of them at this moment.

I am glad Qiao Ling was able to get to the train station and follow Liu Ye to the police station. He makes a statement but the only comfort he can take is that they can’t confirm guilt, NOT that he is innocent. Qiao Ling tries to comfort him but is unsuccessful. Liu Ye is doxxed once videos went viral. The main culprit is so happy with number views that she has a big crowd in front of his workplace to catch him getting arrested. They are making a carnival atmosphere out of it and not worried about truth at all. They have their culprit handy and plan to get as much viewership as possible from the encounter. Liu Ye already notices his new book is getting negative reviews and removed from shelves because of the fake news. It is heart rending to see the suffering he takes upon himself because there is no escape from the cyber bullying or face recognition from viral videos. Once he saw the crowd he resigned from his workplace to save them the grief of dealing with the mob. He bravely faced them and told them he had resigned and to leave them alone. He runs away with the crowd in pursuit. I respect that his boss tried to defend him and wanted to stay by him. She accepted his resignation eventually and her attitude later made me sad. She had accepted that in spite of her knowing his innocence that her job could not deal with all the bad press. They were willing to throw him under the bus to keep the peace with the masses. As much as I want to loathe them for it, and do to some degree, it is very hard to escape popular opinion when it is determined to find you at fault with no letting up. Everyone wants the hot list of praise, but that hot list of bad press is hard to deal with. His kind soul wanted to clear the air, but there was no venue for him. He also made the mistake of letting the hate comments devour him rather than just shutting his devices down and ignoring it. Qiao Ling is trying to get confirmation from assaulted girls to get to the truth of the matter but so far is unsuccessful. Here, her selfies can come into play to try to find evidence. Cheng Xiao Si and Lu Yuang are combining their talents with hers and working a timeline to find the real culprit. They are working hard but first try was a no go. I really hate they chose the gentlest soul for this crime arc. It makes the biggest impact, but that such a sweet spirit is being crushed by pure volume of hate for a crime he didn’t commit and can’t prove innocence to is really hard to watch.The actors definitely make you feel it and did an excellent job of bringing on the angst.

Qiao Ling has managed to get herself voted in as Time Agent manager.🤣 While she did butt into their team, after the burglary I think it’s a good idea for a third party to assist in an emergency situation. They go on a team building outing where everyone got along nicely except Lu Guang and He Xu. These two are constantly sparring. He Xu is definitely grey in some aspects while Lu Guang is sometimes too black and white. They cannot seem to find a middle ground and Cheng Xiao Si is often uncomfortable trying to keep the peace between them. Here Liu Ye talks about northern lights and magnetic fields which get the three others looking a bit nervous and not contributing much to the topic. After Qiao Ling primises to be at Liu Ye’s book signing she doesn’t show. I was disappointed that she didn’t even call. I know she was comforting the girl assaulted in the train, but he deserved some notice rather than her weak make up sorry at work the next day. The actor playing assaulted girl (the one at the table with Qiao Ling)was the first time I saw poor acting in this drama. Her fake lament was not good compared to the caliber of actors in cast. It was a cringe moment on a serious topic. On his way home, Liu Ye is accused of assaulting a woman on the train. He didn’t do it, but circumstances made him look guilty. He really needed a friend in that moment and none were there for him. I found myself annoyed with Qiao Ling making cutesy faces for selfies while her friend was being hurled to the floor of the train being accused of a crime. For me, this is my least favorite episode so far. I am so disappointed in the one that is supposed to be his friend. Here she is acting far more like Cheng Xiao Si.😝 the second woman claiming assault was much more believable. This whole scene is disturbing but should be considering the subject matter.

Perfect acting in this episode. We are allowed to see what has happened and why with Zheng Zhong. He did do wrong, but it was to protect his family. I am sure that he would do it again even knowing he would be betrayed and punished. Had he included Shuang Hai, there might have been a better solution and red bean would have had more time with rice cake. But as the eldest he did his best to promote the wishes and dreams of his best friends above his own. He truly loved them unconditionally and never backed down from that. Even his moment of saying not close to Shuang Hai was to protect his friend’s image and career. That hug on the beach and their reconciliation clearing the air and re establishing their bond was very heartfelt. The sharing of their wishes revealed some things to rice cake and is another full heart scene beautifully done. Qiao Ling took our time traveler duo to task and demanded answers. After several attempts to concoct stories between them, they finally told the truth. With a skillful montage of photos they proved to her they could and had traveled to specific points in time and communicated via another person. At the end, she found it incredible, but ultimately believed them. After the burglary, I am glad there will be a third party to help keep an eye on things. Shuang Hai has changed his mind and will give an interview on her podcast, so she treats the guys to a meal. I wish I could see how the ‘real’ fight goes with Zheng Zhong and Shuang Hai. I am thinking it will be one of their best kept secrets.

This time we get more backstory for Shang Hai and Zheng Zhong. We also see He Xu and Lu Guang share a meal with Cheng Xiao Si. Tempers flair when his dr and mentor meet. Both boxers have a friend Hong Dou. She is very sick and only Zheng Zhong knows about it. Now our time travelers know he is being blackmailed to keep his friends safe. And Qiao Ling has seen a mission, but still not sure exactly what she is watching. Their secret is out.

The match has started and Lu Guang can’t be found. Cheng Xiao Si finds himself a reluctant participant in the actual match. Lu Guang finds himself in hospital but with his treasure box and contents. The match is won but fraud is involved with the matches …500k is needed by the other boxer and it is decided for him how to get it. Lu Guang finally gets to photo shop and the guys compare notes. Qian Ling shows up at photo shop and calls to file a police report. The real question is why He Xu is there and seems to understand the significance of the box? There is also a mystery girl that has a bracelet like the one in LG’s box. This episode asks more questions than gives answers.

Cheng Xiao Si gets the opportunity of a lifetime. He gets to be his boxing hero believing the pic they used was after the match. But, turns out it was pre match and he begs Lu Guang to let him pretend to be boxing champ for opening song. Against his better judgment, Lu Guang agrees. However, the photo shop was robbed and Lu Guang finds himself in the hospital while Cheng Xiao Si finds himself actually fighting the championship match. Things are not going well for either of them. The actors pretending to be Jiang Long do an excellent job. It is believable that somebody else is now on the scene and subtle, or not so subtle changes are taking place to specific events.

This episode is so moving. It brings balm to the heart after the tragedy of the earthquake. All the guys end up meeting at the mom’s gravesite and while Cheng Xiao Si leaves still upset with Lu Guang, Chen Xiao receives pictures from the old camera. It is here that he has the memories implanted from CXS and his spirits are lifted. Qian Ling and Liu Ye are scheduled for a live podcast for ten year commemoration of the earthquake. It was supposed to bring healing and remembrance but their invited guest was horrible and very unsuited for their intentions. Fortunately their plans were changed for the better because Chen Xiao came and shared the pictures and his memories. That the pictures of the dead smiled because they knew they were loved. This message provided the heart balm the fathers and CXS needed. He left with the understanding of what the mission was. And while still very sad about things, he had new perspective to understand what could be changed and the comfort that could bring to those who survived and endured. The actors performance was so wonderful. You feel the grief and the sadness; then the hope and resolve of moving forward. I have no idea why this is rated so low, but it is truly worth watching. It tells incredible stories very well. They make you reflect and appreciate life as it is in all it’s flawed glory.

The acting in this episode was very well done. Everything was so happy after the game and then went horribly wrong. The anguish shown by Chen Xiao just tore at your heart. Lu Guang was also in pain because he understood the inevitability of the outcome and how much Chen Xiao Si would fight against it. When he returns he is so angry with Lu Guang and rightly so. As mentor he was more concerned with the outcome to get him to the mission most on his mind, rather than remembering the acute pain of not being able to change a tragedy. Here, he was the one that failed badly and the result was irreparable harm to Cheng Xiao Si’s mental state. He is already suffering serious PTSD and it is compounded because to his friends and family there is no reason for it. They can only see him suffer and try to comfort him and wonder why he is in such a state. He is visited by He Xu who says he is the only one that can help. He thinks it is the referral Lu Guang gave him. Lu Guang is staying close by, but Chen Xiao Si wants nothing to do with him and I don’t blame him.

In this episode Cheng Xiao Shi gets his first real mission of importance. He finds himself the weak kid with glasses who is supposed to be team photographer. In spite of his last attempt to lose the game, the weakest member actually wins it. 🥳 Here, since it is their last game I am happy they won even if a rule was broken. We aren’t told what three sentences he was to say, but he delivered the messages to the people that were supposed to receive them. Pictures are taken and the photos are changed to happier expressions because he was there to alter things. He is happily eating very pleased that his mission was accomplished when he realizes the date and what the big node is that cannot be changed. He is very upset as the episode ends.

Cheng Xiao Shi and Lu Guang successfully reveal all the devious behavior of Shang Chun Zhao. It was a well deserved punishment and the smile of the employee he most bullied made me smile along with her. I am very glad to see her get justice. Lu Guang still has misgivings about his new partner, but has to admit they are hard to find so he is going to see how things go and hope for the best. You can tell he is quite reluctant but is seeing that Cheng Xiao Shi is a decent person and willing to do better each venture. Lu Guang visits his home town still seeking answers about the death of his mentor. He has gone to great lengths to find a photo that will get him back to the right place and time. Someone comes to the photo shop with an old camera needing repairs and Lu Guang fixes it along with developing the pictures. He is becoming a part of CXS’s family making skewers in their restaurant. The actors do a good job presenting the story and production staff did well with making the back and forth time trips believable. I am really enjoying their combined efforts.

This episode is so sad. It is more than the death of a young dr. His father could not accept him as he was and did his best to make his son live a false life. But just when things were turning around for the better, the dr is killed in the hospital lobby fending off an addict. Geu-ru once again figures out the truth of the matter and gets the heart box to the right person. I did have to smile that Na-mu slept through the concert and hardhearted Sang-Gu wants to give standing ovation. He continues to become more personable. As the episode concludes he is visiting the fighter he hurt trying to wake him from his coma.

Geu-ru’s photographic memory won’t let him rest because he didn’t find a pet camera in the teacher’s belongings. Sang-Gu helps him find it in a ceiling vent. This provided the evidence needed to prove boyfriend was guilty. Him laughing was a horrible thing. Geu-ru and Na-mu give the teacher’s gifts to students and friend. The only good thing that came of this other than false boyfriend getting arrested was Sang-Gu confronting the other abusive boyfriend that obstructed his running path. The detective gave Geu-ru her card. He refused it saying already memorized and rattled off all her information. Her reaction was funny, she was basically looking like she didn’t know all that from memory. Na-mu is tailing the uncle, finds out he is trying to sell the business and that he is fighting underground. Or rather being beaten. Whoever is blackmailing him is forcing him to lose fights.
