Begin Again Episode 13 Recap
> Begin Again Recap
By chance, Lu Yiyao and Cai Siyu had another conversation. Although brief, Cai Siyu couldn't help but once again fall into the illusion of love. After leaving Cai Siyu's workstation, Lu Yiyao received news from his subordinate who found a factory to replace the cooperation with Jiangcheng Group. He hurriedly returned to his office to learn more. Lu Fangning remembered Ling Rui saying he loved home-cooked meals the most, so she decided to practice her cooking skills.
After careful preparation, the table full of dishes left Ling Rui momentarily speechless. Fangning enthusiastically served soup for Ling Rui, but Ling Rui still couldn't see Lu Fangning's so-called sincerity. It turned out that on the way back, Ling Rui had accidentally caught a glimpse of Fangning's takeout box. This small lie made Ling Rui suspicious of all of Fangning's actions. However, Fangning could no longer bear the feeling of her sincerity being denied.
Ling Rui's sharp words made Fangning no longer want to hold onto her true feelings only to be met with coldness. Overcome with anger, Fangning slammed the door and left. In the empty house, a helpless Ling Rui received a package from Fangning, which was a humanoid doll with Ling Rui's picture on it. Looking at the band-aid in the trash can and the burnt pot, Ling Rui seemed to suddenly wake up.
He ran out and frantically called Fangning's phone. But at this time, Lu Fangning, filled with frustration, was venting her anger alone at the taekwondo gym. Unable to figure out Ling Rui's heart, Lu Fangning sat silently on the sponge mat at the gym. Lu Yiyao walked in at this moment. Seeing Lu Fangning's silent expression, he didn't ask any more questions, just quietly accompanied her.
The two of them just looked at the night view outside the window like this. Ling Rui ran to all the places Fangning might possibly be, but by the time he found the gym, only air remained. . . The next day, during the free clinic activity, Ling Rui happened to come near Jiangcheng Group.
Remembering the past events between Lu Yiyao and Qin Yujiang, as well as the trade disputes between Jiangcheng Group and Luming Group, Ling Rui found Qin Yujiang. Qin Yujiang originally thought Ling Rui had come merely as a lobbyist, but Ling Rui smiled slightly and subtly advised Qin Yujiang to let go of his inner stubbornness and stop being angry with the Lu siblings by using the "principle of fever".
Hearing Ling Rui's profound words, Qin Yujiang also fell silent, contemplating. Lu Yiyao discovered that there was an error in the data from this replacement factory, which was exactly due to the so-called Manager Wang accepting bribes and providing a problematic factory. He who does not despise deceit in war, Lu Yiyao uncovered the mole and submitted a series of evidence for legal proceedings. Qin Yujiang proposed a new contract to Lu Fangning, but Lu Fangning did not compromise.
Qin Yujiang's going back on his word broke the rules of the game. Knowing he was in the wrong, Qin Yujiang provided the business card of a new supplier. Lu Fangning accepted it calmly, not dwelling on the past. Before leaving, Qin Yujiang mentioned Ling Rui's name. Lu Fangning sprang up as if suddenly provoked, realizing that Ling Rui was behind all this. Lu Fangning didn't respond directly but instead asked about the possibility between Qin Yujiang and Lu Yiyao.
Qin Yujiang mentioned quite mysteriously that Lu Yiyao's heart belonged to someone, but that he shouldn't reveal the secret. Qin Yujiang suggested talking to Lu Yiyao again. The two returned to the place where they used to date. Memories flooded back. Qin Yujiang feigned a relaxed demeanor and explicitly told Lu Yiyao about her feelings for him that had not yet disappeared.
At this moment, she said, she would no longer be stubborn if Lu Yiyao would just take one step forward. But everything was just as Qin Yujiang knew. The person Lu Yiyao truly couldn't forget was Lu Fangning, who displayed a brilliant smile in the cherished photo in his wallet. Looking at Qin Yujiang's determined retreating back, Lu Yiyao felt his steps were extremely heavy, unable to move his body forward for a long time.
Out of the corner of her eye, Qin Yujiang caught sight of Lu Yiyao's fixed figure. She also understood that everything could no longer be forced and that the past had to be left behind as she moved towards a new life. However, Qin Yujiang still couldn't control the tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.
Lu Fangning placed the new supplier documents on Lu Yiyao's desk, but accidentally saw her own photo clearly tucked inside Lu Yiyao's wallet. Thinking about Qin Yujiang's mysterious words and everything from the past, how she once cried in Lu Yiyao's arms, and Lu Yiyao's departure years ago without saying goodbye. A bold guess arose in Lu Fangning's heart. . .
After saying goodbye to Qin Yujiang and returning to the company, Lu Yiyao found that Lu Fangning was avoiding him everywhere, whether it was conversations, meetings, or even meals. An awkwardness had now grown between the two who used to chat happily. Lu Yiyao guessed that his secret had likely been discovered, so he deliberately asked Cai Siyu out for dinner in front of Lu Fangning, hoping to use this to dispel Lu Fangning's vigilance.
Hearing Lu Yiyao's words, Cai Siyu froze in place, puzzled. She hadn't done anything, yet the domineering director was offering himself up out of nowhere? Lu Yiyao, who came to the underground parking garage to get his car, ran into Manager Wang and his group who were seeking revenge. A few thugs quickly surrounded Lu Yiyao and started attacking him with punches and kicks. Cai Siyu watched the horrifying scene and quickly shouted loudly.
Seeing this, the group fled, leaving behind the injured Lu Yiyao. Cai Siyu carefully applied medicine to the wound at the corner of Lu Yiyao's mouth. Their faces kept getting closer, their breaths mingling. The atmosphere at this moment was perfect. Cai Siyu eagerly waited for Lu Yiyao to confess his feelings, but Lu Yiyao had an unaccustomed look on his face. Seeing that a good opportunity was about to slip away, Cai Siyu decided to take the initiative. She mustered her courage and spoke up to confess to Lu Yiyao.
