The Storm of Roses – Episode 19 Recap/Review

Xie Linhui opts for IVF amid family and corporate turmoil, while Jiang Yidi faces workplace rivalries and personal growth challenges.

Xie Linhui’s doctor advised her to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF) because natural conception is indeed more difficult at her age. Additionally, she had a previous ectopic pregnancy, which also poses risks for natural conception. The doctor suggested that she discuss this with Zhou Hang. After leaving the consultation room, Xie Linhui saw Xiao He’s husband and his female assistant. She had sensed their unusual relationship during their last encounter in the office. Indeed, this time, the woman came to the hospital accompanied by Xiao He’s husband, and the two were closely cuddling together.

Later, Jiang Yidi learned that the girl who wanted to invest in Li Weiqing’s book club project was named Tang Ruo. She was Yu Shi’s alumnus and would become Jiang Yidi’s colleague in the future. Tang Ruo wanted to secure this project to enter the new company with performance achievements. However, Jiang Yidi was very interested in the book club project and wanted a fair chance to compete with Tang Ruo. Yu Shi did not prevent her; since Jiang Yidi wanted it, she let her pursue it because whichever of them secured the project would benefit the company.

Xie Linhui’s best friend, Xiao He, came to her home to cook for her. Xie Linhui watched Xiao He enjoy the feeling of moving around the stove, mentioning how happiness for the child and family was evident on her face. She didn’t know how to bring up the topic of Xiao He’s husband, Da Lin’s infidelity. Just as she was about to speak, Xiao He’s daughter called. Seeing how happy Xiao He looked while talking to her daughter, Xie Linhui couldn’t bear to reveal the truth and casually mentioned her decision to undergo IVF, abruptly changing the subject from what she had started to say.

Xie Linhui and Zhou Hang plan to visit their parents’ home over the weekend. This time, Xie Linhui intends to check on her younger sister Xiao Tong’s recent situation and to inform her mother about her decision to undergo IVF. When Zhou Hang arrives at the home, he learns that Uncle Chang has recently taken an interest in studying cameras. Since Zhou Hang is quite knowledgeable about cameras, he starts chatting with Uncle Chang about them. Being a commendable son-in-law, Zhou Hang had already purchased a camera in advance, which would arrive in a few days, making Uncle Chang very happy.

Xie Linhui watches her mother packing Xiao Tong’s luggage, not understanding what drama is unfolding. Her mother explains that she has arranged a new school for Xiao Tong and that she will be going to Boston in a few days. The entire family has kept this from Uncle Chang, not daring to let him know. Therefore, Xie Linhui urges Xiao Tong that whatever happens, she must talk to her family because they will definitely support her. Xiao Tong, busy with her thesis, does not want to be disturbed and thus brusquely sends them away.

Both Yuxiang Investment and Wu Yueting have withdrawn their lawsuits against Xie Linhui. Xie Linhui knows that Zhou Hang helped behind the scenes with this matter. This time, unlike before, she wants to express her gratitude by inviting Zhou Hang to dinner. Xie Linhui is summoned by President Gao to discuss matters with the group. After talking with President Gao, she learns that President Gao intends to sacrifice himself to preserve the reputation of the magazine company.

On Zhou Hang’s side, his assistant investigated Zhang Hongda’s involvement in distributing SI software. However, Zhou Hang personally tore up those investigation documents and instructed his assistant to keep it confidential. Zhou Hang had already known about this matter when he met with Wu Yueting. The channel for distributing SI was introduced to Zhang Hongda by Wu Yueting. Additionally, Liang Dong, the chairman of Yuanshen Technology, is also aware of this matter. Therefore, Zhou Hang cannot make any statements now, as it could easily cause him trouble.

Yu Shi has a good relationship with Shen Zongyu from Puhang Venture Capital. They arranged to have a meal at a restaurant, where they were coincidentally seen by Mike. Mike then contacted Jiang Yidi, and upon receiving the news, Jiang Yidi immediately rushed to the restaurant.
