Begin Again Episode 17 Recap
> Begin Again Recap
When Lu Fangning returned to the dinner table, the topic suddenly shifted back to Ling Rui's rumored paramour: the "Goddess of White Moonlight" - Yu Shiyi. With a smile on her face, Lu Fangning's heart was on the verge of exploding. After Ling Rui returned to the table, Lu Fangning "smilingly" asked about the rumored object. A puzzled Ling Rui just answered blankly, completely unaware of the strange tone in Lu Fangning's voice.
Cai Siyu and Lu Yiyao went on a date to an art exhibition. The exhibition organizer mistakenly thought Cai Siyu was Lu Yiyao's secretary. Lu Yiyao didn't mind the slip of the tongue, but a crack appeared in Cai Siyu's heart as his girlfriend, and she couldn't swallow the insult. While Lu Yiyao went to accept an exclusive interview, Cai Siyu, using Lu Yiyao's name, bought the most expensive painting in the exhibition to vent her anger.
At this moment, Tang Ping, who is a minor internet celebrity, also appeared at the exhibition and accidentally bumped into Cai Siyu. The two, who had last met at Lu Fangning's wedding, were now bitter enemies crossing paths. The narrow-minded Tang Ping used sharp language to mock Cai Siyu's taste, personality, appearance, and other aspects. Even when Cai Siyu brought up her title as Lu Yiyao's girlfriend, she was only met with a burst of ridicule from the other party.
Feeling a bit inferior in her heart, which she usually didn't show, Cai Siyu lowered her head in disappointment under Tang Ping's verbal attack. Just as Tang Ping was immersed in her fleeting verbal victory, Lu Yiyao appeared with firm steps. In front of Tang Ping, he pulled Cai Siyu into a hug, solemnly declaring their relationship. Cai Siyu's expression only then regained its former radiance. It turned out this relationship was not a humble one-sided effort on her part.
Leaning against Lu Yiyao's chest, Cai Siyu felt completely secure. The second round of Ling Rui's dinner party was KTV. Under the urging of his classmates, Ling Rui and Lu Fangning picked up the microphones. But as soon as she heard the name of Yu Shiyi, the old flame who had sung with Ling Rui last time, Lu Fangning immediately lost her mood. Seeing the situation was wrong, Curly Hair immediately pushed Ling Rui away and helped him explain.
With his glib tongue, Curly Hair collectively "insulted" Ling Rui, which significantly eased Lu Fangning's anger. But the more Curly Hair talked, the more enthusiastic he became, and Lu Fangning, on the contrary, entered "husband-protecting" mode. Ling Rui, who had been looking at the two resentfully from the side, felt as if he had received a free pass when he heard Lu Fangning speak up for him.
He quickly squeezed back to Lu Fangning's side, and the young couple's first spat came to an end. Lu Fangyu was about to go out but was stopped by his mother, Yang Yi. Seeing Lu Fangyu's anxious expression, Yang Yi grew suspicious of his true purpose, so she began to follow her son. Seeing her son enter a dance academy, Yang Yi entered furiously, intending to drag Lu Fangyu out.
However, Gao Erfan, who happened to be passing by, tricked Yang Yi by pretending to privately teach Lu Fangyu business management. After seeing his mother leave, Lu Fangyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Facing Gao Erfan, Lu Fangyu let down his guard completely and talked to Gao Erfan about his love for ballet. Lu Fangyu planned to participate in the male version of Swan Lake dance performance, incidentally fulfilling his eldest sister's former dream. . .
Lu Fangyu's rehearsal for Swan Lake went very smoothly. The reporters who arrived at the scene recognized Lu Fangyu's figure and name and quickly sensed a business opportunity, coming forward. . . Lu Wenbin received the set photo of Lu Fangyu sent by the reporter, and anger instantly surged in his heart. Faced with his son's "unspeakable" hobby, Lu Wenbin not only refused to understand but even ordered to prevent Lu Fangyu from escaping and had him brought back.
In front of Lu Fangyu, he picked up the scissors and cut Lu Fangyu's practice clothes piece by piece. Lu Fangning appeared at this moment, stopping Lu Wenbin from further suppressing Lu Fangyu with forceful methods. Facing his broken hard work, Lu Fangyu clenched his teeth, refusing to yield even unto death. Hearing his son's defiance, Lu Wenbin was about to take the opportunity to use excessive language to suppress him, but all of this was too similar.
The hideous look on Lu Wenbin's face as he roared into the phone in the past surfaced in his mind. Lu Wenbin remembered, and Lu Fangning remembered even more. Looking at her father's unchanging forceful appearance before her eyes, Lu Fangning glared with wide eyes, questioning Lu Wenbin. Before the atmosphere could deteriorate further, Ling Rui spoke up to stop them.
Lu Fangning had no choice but to regain some rationality and leave this suffocating house, taking Lu Fangyu with her. As the intermediary, Lu Yiyao could only chase after Lu Fangning, but Lu Fangning counterattacked using her sister's example. Lu Yiyao was speechless and could only watch silently as Lu Fangning left. Lu Fangning took Lu Fangyu to a hotel.
Seeing Lu Fangning's lost yet pretending-to-be-strong expression, and the way she stepped forward to protect him, a warmth surged in Lu Fangyu's heart, so he tightly hugged Lu Fangning's thin body. . . After seeing Lu Fangyu off, Ling Rui looked at Lu Fangning's confused face, his heart aching. But Lu Fangning asked Ling Rui to take her to a store. Looking at the furniture displayed everywhere, Lu Fangning slowly told Ling Rui the story of her sister, Lu Yue.
