A River Runs Through It Episode 32 Recap
> A River Runs Through It Recap
Lu Shiyi and Cheng Lang were drinking on the rooftop. Cheng Lang felt that relationships were very much like doubles tennis; whether it was good or not depended on two people, what could one person do? Lu Shiyi advised him that it wasn't just wishful thinking, Lin You still loved him, and suggested he go have a good talk with Yuan Ancheng. Just then, Cheng Lang received a call from Yuan Ancheng, who asked to meet and talk.
Yuan Ancheng found Cheng Lang and explained the hug, explaining the misunderstanding from back then. Yuan Ancheng felt that if he loved Lin You, he would want her to be happy, but it was precisely because Cheng Lang didn't trust Lin You that he was so angry yesterday. He also said that Cheng Lang was forcefully keeping Lin You by his side and that Lin You had already given up studying abroad.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Lang immediately ran to find Lin You. Lin You explained that she wasn't intentionally protecting Yuan Ancheng, and she apologized to Cheng Lang. Cheng Lang spoke Lin You's thoughts aloud: she was scared, she was scared of facing Yuan Ancheng alone abroad, but Cheng Lang didn't want Lin You to feel guilty, and even less did he want her to give up anything.
Cheng Lang was playing basketball alone in the gym, and Lin You was practicing dance in the studio. Both of them had complex, inexpressible emotions. Xia Xiaoju ran to find Lin You and told her that there wasn't another Cheng Lang in this world. No matter what, Cheng Lang was the one who got her through it back then. How could she not know how much Cheng Lang loved her?
But even so, Lin You was still afraid of changing her mind. Lin You also wished she could be as free and easy as Xia Xiaoju, and let go of herself. She already knew that CL was Cheng Lang, and that Xia Xiaoju liked Cheng Lang. Lin You had heard everything Xia Xiaoju and Lu Shiyi said in the classroom that day. She knew Xia Xiaoju felt very wronged, and she shouldn't have revealed Xia Xiaoju's inner secret.
Xia Xiaoju's roommates were discussing that after Lin You went abroad, a devoted guy like Cheng Lang would likely have a hard time getting over it. Cheng Lang was indeed very sad, sitting on the sports field and painfully recalling everything that had happened with Lin You, crying heartbrokenly, but Cheng Lang still chose to let go. Yuan Ancheng and Lin You went abroad together.
Before they left, Xia Xiaoju came to see Lin You off, hoping she would take good care of herself abroad. Cheng Lang also watched Lin You and Yuan Ancheng leave in the taxi. From then on, Cheng Lang focused on studying computer science, constantly learning, afraid of recalling Lin You, trying to find a way to stop thinking about her. Xia Xiaoju wanted to write to him again using the nickname Mango Pudding to comfort him.
As for Cheng Lang, he received an invitation from Niu Yu, the founder of China Yellow Pages, to start a business together. Cheng Lang was still considering it. Xia Xiaoju felt that Cheng Lang had been heavy-hearted recently. Taozi told her that time was the best medicine. Just then, someone came to promote the school's outdoor movie screening. Xia Xiaoju thought it would be suitable for Cheng Lang, so she called to invite him, but he didn't answer.
She went to his dorm but he wasn't there. She went to find Lu Shiyi. Seeing her state, Lu Shiyi asked her to make a choice, what was she really thinking? But Xia Xiaoju said he misunderstood, she was just worried about him as a friend. Lu Shiyi told Xia Xiaoju that Cheng Lang had gone to Paju to discuss website development, so Xia Xiaoju left.
At this moment, Lu Shiyi received a message from the director, asking him to be an exchange student with Shen Duo and study abroad at the University of Zurich in Switzerland. Xia Xiaoju then went to find Cheng Lang to eat hot pot together in the dorm. Cheng Lang told Xia Xiaoju that he was going to the company in two days to start a business with Niu Yu.
Cheng Lang also told Xia Xiaoju that he already knew her feelings and thanked her, whether in real life or in the letters. He already knew that Xia Xiaoju was Mango Pudding. However, Xia Xiaoju had also let go now; she no longer liked Cheng Lang. Lu Shiyi was thinking about studying abroad; he still liked Xia Xiaoju and was very reluctant to leave her.
