Episode 19 recap: Lin Xi and Xiao Yi Cheng are officially together.
Xiao Yi Cheng had been by Lin Xi's side when she was drunk, and when Lin Xi woke up, she found herself lying in a hotel bed. Xiao Yi Cheng had brought her there, and when Lin Xi got up, she realized she was alone in the room. She quickly put on her shoes and wanted to escape, but Xiao Yi Cheng came out wearing a bathrobe. Lin Xi asked Xiao Yi Cheng why she was there, and from Xiao Yi Cheng, she learned that last night, Lin Xi had held onto Xiao Yi Cheng tightly and refused to let him leave.
Xiao Yi Cheng also mentioned that Lin Xi had said a lot of things last night, even confessing that she regretted breaking up with him. Lin Xi was startled and quickly hiccuped. Xiao Yi Cheng had even recorded all those words, which made Lin Xi even more anxious.
Lin Xi deliberately argued that Xiao Yi Cheng must have fabricated those recordings. Lin Xi also urged Xiao Yi Cheng to delete the recordings quickly. Although Lin Xi refused to admit it, she was very grateful to Xiao Yi Cheng for being by her side during her most difficult and saddest times.
Lin Xi had intended to gather the courage to speak out about the reasons for their breakup back then. However, when she realized there was no one outside, she saw that Xiao Yi Cheng had left a note and departed. Coincidentally, Wei Tian called Lin Xi and informed her about a gathering. After learning that Xiao Yi Cheng would also be there, Lin Xi decided to go as well.
Xiao Yi Cheng also went to the gathering in the evening, but he didn't expect to find Lin Xi there. Chen Xiao quickly arrived too, which made Lin Xi feel somewhat disappointed. Xiao Yi Cheng went directly to Lin Xi, held her hand, and they entered the restaurant together. The people gathering today were all good friends of the boss, and they had been university students together. They used to eat here frequently in the past, but they never expected to sit together years later.
Someone at the table asked Xiao Yi Cheng and Lin Xi if they were married. Xiao Yi Cheng simply replied that they weren't, but he didn't deny their relationship. The boss was also getting married soon, and interestingly, it would be with his first love. Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Cheng couldn't help but hold Lin Xi's hand. This time, Lin Xi didn't refuse. In truth, it was not easy for the two of them to truly come together. After having the meal together, they took photos, and then Xiao Yi Cheng and Lin Xi were just about to leave when Chen Xiao stopped Xiao Yi Cheng, wanting to talk to him alone. However, Xiao Yi Cheng didn't allow Lin Xi to leave.
Chen Xiao straightforwardly asked Xiao Yi Cheng where he had lost in the past. He thought that after eight years of dedication, he would surely get something in return. However, he didn't expect that even after eight years, his heart only belonged to Lin Xi. Xiao Yi Cheng didn't refute this and left while holding Lin Xi's hand.
Lin Xi also voluntarily revealed the reason she had proposed to break up with Xiao Yi Cheng back then. It was because she had just received an acceptance letter from a company and was afraid that Xiao Yi Cheng would give up his opportunity to study abroad for her. Lin Xi didn't want to give up on her dreams, so she compromised by suggesting a breakup.
However, Xiao Yi Cheng didn't care about those reasons. He even asked her if they could go back eight years, would she still propose a breakup. Although Lin Xi said she would verbally, she still couldn't bear to let go of Xiao Yi Cheng in her heart. Xiao Yi Cheng kissed Lin Xi voluntarily, and memories came flooding back. It felt like the two of them had traveled back to the past, with all the laughter and tears they had shared reappearing before their eyes.
The next morning, when Lin Xi woke up, she started looking for nice clothes, hoping that both she and Xiao Yi Cheng would look good. The two of them finally had an open conversation and didn't want any barriers to exist between them in the future. Lin Xi dressed up in nice clothes and went on their date. They were supposed to meet at a shopping mall but ended up at the wrong address. Xiao Yi Cheng hurriedly came to find Lin Xi, and they walked hand in hand like a young couple to play arcade games.
Both of them were very happy. They hadn't laughed like this in a long time. They even went to watch a movie together, holding hands even while watching the movie. During dinner, Xiao Yi Cheng got sprayed with saliva by an alpaca, which was quite frustrating for him since he had cleanliness habits. Fortunately, Lin Xi was by his side, which alleviated his frustration to some extent.
Lin Xi and Xiao Yi Cheng went to the place where they first met, and they kissed passionately, as if everything had returned to the past. They even sneaked into a classroom and attended a class together. There, a younger student approached Lin Xi, but Xiao Yi Cheng couldn't sit still and deliberately told the teacher that someone was harassing them. Although there was a small incident during their date, overall, it was quite successful.
Xiao Yi Cheng and Lin Xi worked overtime until late. Cheng Yao happened to see them together, so he tactfully prepared to leave. However, he ran into Tong Xin, who invited him for a drink.
