My Life as a Villain Character Episode 24 (Ending) Recap
> My Life as a Villain Character Recap
Ye Wange woke up in a Modern Hospital, where a male doctor explained she had been in a car accident and underwent telencephalon therapy, which involved entering a novel. Now, she was back in the real world. After the doctor left, Ye Wange suspected it was a fraudulent institution and called the police in a panic, urging them to hurry before she was taken away. She then sought an opportunity to escape.
As Ye Wange stumbled out, the celebrity Chen Ye spotted her looking weak and came to her aid. Immediately, paparazzi swarmed them, taking photos and attempting to extort money from Chen Ye for pictures of his "girlfriend." Chen Ye repeatedly asserted that Ye Wange was his cousin, leading the paparazzi to lose interest, calling it "boring." Ye Wange playfully accused him of using her as a shield again, and he retorted that he just happened to see her looking ill.
He then offered to take her to eat. Chen Ye took Ye Wange to an internet-famous restaurant, which he revealed was owned by his wife, Wanqing.
Ye Wange was surprised he was already married, having initially thought he was secretly dating, and recounted her strange experience: waking up in a patient uniform on a white bed with colorful patches on her head, hearing a male doctor say perplexing things, pulling out the needle, and escaping, which led her to believe the hospital was a "swindler institution" and to call the police.
Chen Ye then shared that his wife, Wanqing, had also been in a car accident recently and underwent the same "telencephalon therapy system," describing identical details of waking up with colorful patches. He showed Ye Wange Wanqing's new book, "The Low-profile Miss Ye," which he was planning to adapt into a movie. Reading the book, Ye Wange was struck by the names "Lu Wanqing" and "Feng Muchen."
The plot described how the second daughter of the Ye family, Lu Wanqing, had her engagement broken by her sister, Ye Wange, who then surprisingly became understanding and even helped matchmake Lu Wanqing with Feng Muchen. Ye Wange found the plot unsettlingly familiar, stating she felt she had "experienced these things."
She recalled specific lines and scenes from the novel that mirrored her own "memories," including Feng Muchen's declaration of sacrificing for his family, a cohabitation agreement, his reassuring presence, and his desire to be her superhero. Chen Ye encouraged her to reconsider the hospital, suggesting it might not be a "swindler institution" after all.
As Ye Wange walked, continuing to read the novel, more vivid memories resurfaced, including Feng Muchen teaching her self-reliance, revealing he was also from the real world, and his heartfelt proposal to be her "superhero" and "the bridge under her feet, waiting for her return." She recalled rejecting his proposal in the story, questioning why she did so despite her love for him.
Suddenly, Feng Muchen's name resonated deeply, and she frantically tried to call him, only to find his phone off. Overcome with emotion, she rushed back to the hospital, apologizing to the doctor for her earlier alarm, explaining it was simply a girl's caution. The doctor revealed that Feng Muchen was indeed safe but had risked his life by willingly entering the world of telencephalon to protect her, even fainting multiple times within the system.
Ye Wange was touched by his sacrifice and regretful that he hadn't told her. She then remembered a serious female doctor saving Feng Muchen in the novel, jokingly deducing that the real-world doctor must have influenced the novel's depiction. The doctor then explained that Feng Muchen was now trapped in "another book" because the original "happiness switch" necklace, which was meant to bring him out, had been lost.
Ye Wange understood that she was the only one who could save him. Armed with a new, improved "happiness switch" necklace, Ye Wange plunged into the second book. She found Feng Muchen in a precarious situation, being urged by another woman to abandon his emotions and stay with her. He adamantly refused, declaring he was waiting for someone and that no one could replace the person he loved.
As a "Prince Charming," he would not betray his beloved by kissing the woman forcing him. Ye Wange then appeared, telling him, "This time, let me save you." She used the necklace to successfully retrieve him. Back in reality, Feng Muchen initially seemed to have no memory of her, and even returned the necklace, attempting to leave.
Ye Wange, however, fiercely reminded him of their bond, imploring him to remember his promise to wait for her and that she would eventually remember him, emphatically stating, "You are mine." With both of them successfully returned to reality, the doctor proudly announced that Ye Wange and Feng Muchen were the first couple to achieve complete physical and mental recovery through the telencephalon system. Both of them had fully regained their past memories.
Su Yinyin and Zou Chengji, who were real-world friends of Wanqing, had opened a seafood barbecue restaurant. Ye Wange and Feng Muchen visited the restaurant for a meal. Wanqing, who was personally grilling, joked that she was doing so for her VIP guests. She then introduced her two pet dogs, Ning Yuan and Yun Yi, revealing that these were the "characters" of the same names that she whimsically included in her novel.
Ye Wange was surprised and amused, realizing that the 'characters' who had accompanied her and Feng Muchen in the novel were actually Wanqing's pets in reality. As they celebrated and toasted together, Ye Wange felt immense happiness, realizing that both the person she loved most and the person who loved her most were right by her side. As Ye Wange and Feng Muchen engaged in playful banter, he asked her to close her eyes for a surprise.
In that moment, he was "kidnapped" by masked figures. Ye Wange panicked and, along with Su Yinyin and Zou Chengji, ran after the kidnappers. After a frantic chase, they split up, and Ye Wange eventually found Feng Muchen by the sea. She rushed to his side, checking if he was hurt, only to discover the entire "kidnapping" was an elaborate prank orchestrated by Feng Muchen and their friends as a marriage proposal.
Feng Muchen then made a sincere declaration, acknowledging Ye Wange's sensitivity and insecurity. He promised to be a mature and reliable partner, one who would love her without suffocating her, miss her without tying her down, and support her dreams, ensuring her security and freedom. He expressed his desire to grow with her and be her inseparable "other half" forever.
With their friends emerging from hiding to witness the moment, Feng Muchen knelt, presenting Ye Wange with a ring and other symbolic gifts, asking her to marry him. Deeply moved by his sincerity and grand gesture, Ye Wange affectionately accepted, calling him "Mr. Ye" and herself "Mrs. Feng." Their friends erupted in applause as the couple embraced, reaffirming their profound love and commitment to a shared future.
