This episode recounts the first meeting and developing bond between a young Ning Xi and Li Yunshen. Tormented by illness, Li Yunshen was reclusive, rarely smiled, and resisted medication and surgery. The sensible and well-behaved Ning Xi not only brought out Yunshen's long-lost smile but also won the affection of his mother (Mrs. Li). When Yunshen threw a tantrum at home, refusing treatment, his attitude immediately changed upon hearing that Ning Xi was coming to play with him, highlighting Ning Xi's unique importance in his heart.

The scene then shifts to the countryside, where the two play by the river. Li Yun Shen expresses his affection for rural life and Ning Xi, lamenting that he could stay forever if he hadn't fallen ill.

This episode is a flashback to the beginning of the entire series. The story goes back to the childhood of the male and female protagonists. Young **Li Yunshen**, born into a wealthy family, suffers from a serious illness with only a 5% chance of successful surgery. In his despair, his childhood sweetheart **Ning Xi** gives him a paper crane symbolizing peace and health, and uses a taunt to encourage him not to be a "coward." Inspired, Li Yunshen agrees to the surgery. They pinky-swear under a tree, making a vow: Ning Xi will fold one paper crane every day, and Li Yunshen will immediately return to her after his successful surgery. However, as Li Yunshen leaves by car for treatment, the **neighboring aunt** suddenly informs Ning Xi that her **grandmother**, with whom she depends for survival, is critically ill. The two are forced to separate on this day, foreshadowing their eventual reunion after a long separation and a mix-up of identities.

This episode unfolds through a flashback. It begins by showing the male lead, Li Yunshen, undergoing critical surgery as a child.

The scene then shifts to the countryside. Childhood Ning Xi eats alone in a humble room, conversing with her deceased grandmother, expressing her understanding of her grandmother's strict teachings and her deep longing for her.

Full of hope to see Li Yunshen, she discovers that the visitor is her stepmother (Ning Xinyao's mother), who ruined her family, and Ning Xi harbors intense hostility towards her.

This episode depicts the tragic beginning of young Ning Xi's life-altering events. After her grandmother's death, her father's mistress (Ning Xinyao's mother) suddenly appears. In an attempt to seize the Ning family's assets for herself, she forcibly takes Ning Xi away from her rural home, trying to sever all her connections to the outside world. Ning Xi desperately resists, crying out that she is waiting for Li Yunshen to return. To completely erase Ning Xi's presence, the mistress gifts the house to villagers and bribes them. Subsequently, a young Li Yunshen arrives with his mother to search for Ning Xi. Although he faintly hears Ning Xi's cries for help, the bribed villagers unanimously lie, claiming "no such person was found." Li Yunshen searches the village in vain, falling into deep confusion and disappointment. The two thus miss each other with regret.

Eighteen years later, Li Yunchen, now the CEO of Li Group, learns of Ning Xi's whereabouts at a press conference.
