| The Miracles Finale Recap: How Every Story Connects (Photo: Tencent Video) |
The Miracles (奇迹) is one of those Chinese short dramas that doesn’t shout for attention but slowly works its way under your skin. This 24-episode Tencent Video short series wraps up with mixed but thoughtful emotions, staying true to its slice-of-life roots. Directed by Li Zhi, the drama stitches together multiple everyday stories set in Shenzhen, showing how small choices, patience, and persistence can quietly shape a future.
Rather than relying on big twists or dramatic confrontations, the final episodes lean into realism. The ending doesn’t try to be flashy. Instead, it closes each storyline in a way that feels lived-in, unfinished yet hopeful, very much in line with the show’s theme of ordinary people creating their own miracles.
The Miracles Ending Recap Explained
Chen Jiawen and Hu Xiaoyu’s Long Road to Success
 |
Chen Jiawen and Hu Xiaoyu spend two exhausting years stuck behind a technical barrier. Their funds dry up, forcing them to deliver food just to survive. When Professor He introduces them to a listed company that has already acquired several small startups, it feels like their big break.
The company boss shows strong interest and promises partnership, research support, and even financial freedom within a year.
But the fine print matters.
The contract includes a clause giving the company priority control over the project.
For Chen Jiawen and Hu Xiaoyu, this threatens everything they believe in.
They want to continue research on their own terms, not become tools for profit. Hu Xiaoyu seeks advice, but pressure mounts when Chen Jiawen’s father urgently needs surgery.
Caught between dignity and responsibility, Chen Jiawen signs the contract.

Hu Xiaoyu, seeing his friend’s struggle, quietly walks away. The next morning, Hu Xiaoyu discovers Chen Jiawen has transferred all his shares to him before leaving to care for his father.
A handwritten letter explains everything, apologising and urging Hu Xiaoyu to continue the dream.
Three years pass. By 2025, Hu Xiaoyu’s company is thriving.
One day, Chen Jiawen returns with a cup of iced yuanyang milk tea, his old favourite.
His father’s surgery succeeded, partly thanks to the sensor technology they once developed together.
Hu Xiaoyu never stopped waiting. The two reunite, choosing to move forward side by side again, not richer in money alone, but stronger in trust.
Du Xiaoxi, Chen Mo, and a Conversation Across Time
Du Xiaoxi, a publishing editor, believes in a novel called First Reunion. Its author has talent but little fame. When she presents the manuscript, the chief editor rejects it outright, uninterested in pure literature and focused only on books that sell fast.

No matter how hard she tries, Du Xiaoxi can’t change his mind.
Lost and unsure, she wanders into a book bar after work. There, she notices handwritten notes tucked inside books, left by previous readers.
She responds to one and later finds a strange message inside One Hundred Years of Solitude: “A miracle happened.
It snowed in Shenzhen.” Curious and sceptical, she writes a long reply challenging the idea.
As she continues browsing, Du Xiaoxi realises someone is replying to her notes. She waits, hoping to meet the mysterious reader, but eventually falls asleep. When she asks the owner to check the CCTV, there’s no sign of anyone. The owner casually mentions that Shenzhen did snow once, back in the winter of 2016.

Du Xiaoxi remembers it clearly, her first year at work, and leaves another message asking about that snowfall.
Meanwhile, Chen Mo has just resigned from the same publishing house, choosing to chase his dream of becoming a writer.
He sits in the book bar reading when his mother calls, urging him to return home and take a stable job. He refuses. He wants to wait for snow in Shenzhen.
That night, snow finally falls. Overjoyed, Chen Mo leaves the note in the book. He later replies “2016” beneath Du Xiaoxi’s message. Through handwritten notes hidden in pages, the two begin a quiet dialogue that feels like it transcends time. Their thoughts align, their conversations deepen, and a gentle connection forms.
Eventually, Chen Mo leaves a message asking to meet, letting the story end on anticipation rather than certainty.
The Miracles doesn’t tie everything up with neat bows. Instead, it shows that growth is slow, often invisible, and deeply personal.

Some characters reunite, some are still searching, and others simply take one brave step forward.
The final message is clear: miracles aren’t sudden.
They’re built through endurance, compromise, and belief in something bigger than immediate rewards. Whether it’s innovation, literature, family, or personal dignity, every story reminds us that progress often happens quietly, when no one is watching.
The Miracles ends the same way it begins, softly. It trusts the audience to understand that not every dream explodes into success, but every honest effort leaves a mark. For a short drama, it delivers a surprisingly rich emotional aftertaste, one that lingers long after the final episode fades out.
