Episode 18 recap: Mu Bai Falls Ill
Lin Yan comes to find Wen Lan and mentions that she heard their experiment is about to enter the clinical stage. She is here on behalf of the company to assess the situation. Lin Yan intentionally plays with the necklace around her neck, and Wen Lan notices it. Lin Yan reveals that it is the necklace Mu Bai gave her. However, Wen Lan explains that the necklace was left to her by her mother, and her name is engraved on the back. She finds it hard to believe that Mu Bai would give a necklace with her own name engraved on it to Lin Yan.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan's expression changes. She realizes that Wen Lan saw the necklace when she was with Li Mingxuan before and deliberately obtained it to provoke Wen Lan. Mu Bai comes over to find Wen Lan, and Lin Yan sees him approach. Mu Bai clarifies that he has already made it clear to Lin Yan that he doesn't have feelings for her.
Mu Bai goes to find Wen Lan but finds her drinking with Shi Chu instead. Wen Lan expresses that Mu Bai is an indecisive person. Mu Bai is hurt by Wen Lan's words and leaves in sadness. He arrives at Wen Lan's doorstep and coincidentally sees Shi Chu sending Wen Lan off. Mu Bai hides outside.
It starts raining outside, and Mu Bai is still there, getting soaked. He has no choice but to take shelter at Wen Lan's doorstep. Wen Lan comes out and sees Mu Bai, so she brings him inside. Since it's late, Wen Lan doesn't let Mu Bai go back. Mu Bai says he's feeling unwell and hopes Wen Lan can accompany him, to which she agrees.
