To make matters worse, her report is taken out of context, leading many social media posters to criticize the fire department! But Xu Lai’s love for him has not diminished – and she resolves to fix this and win his heart at all costs. She becomes a dog trainer, helping train special fire-fighting canines that can help rescuers in their efforts. This brings her closer to Jin Shi Chuan. But he carries deep scars from past hurt. Can Xu Lai’s love help mend the pain?~~ Adapted from the web novel “Shi Guang Ru Yue” (时光如约) by Xiao Lu (筱露).
