刘梓懿因罕见病例患者筱筱脑死亡陷入自责，其父母强忍悲痛签署器官捐献协议，使另一名患儿皮皮重获新生。刘梓懿因手术失败遭医院批评，而成功救治皮皮的秦文彬则获表彰，两人形成鲜明对比。刘梓懿通过跑步宣泄情绪时被拉入马拉松俱乐部，秦文彬贴心护送其回家，两人关系微妙升温。副线中，蒋毓追求顾诗宜未果；术后患者张成鹏刁难护士，刘蓓因感同身受父亲病逝经历而隐忍照顾；王高升误信副院长偏袒蒋毓，当面向其质问却反遭驳斥，陷入尴尬。
Liu Ziyi blames herself for the brain death of Xiao Xiao, a patient with a rare disease. Her parents endure their grief and sign an organ donation agreement, giving another child, Pi Pi, a new life. Liu Ziyi is criticized by the hospital for the failed surgery, while Qin Wenbin, who successfully saved Pi Pi, is commended, creating a sharp contrast between the two. Liu Ziyi is pulled into the marathon club while running to vent her emotions, and Qin Wenbin kindly escorts her home, subtly warming their relationship. In the subplot, Jiang Yu's pursuit of Gu Shiyi fails; postoperative patient Zhang Chengpeng makes things difficult for nurse Liu Bei, who endures it because she empathizes with her father's death; and Wang Gaosheng mistakenly believes that the vice president favors Jiang Yu, questions him in person but is refuted, and is embarrassed.
