Begin Again Episode 26 Recap
> Begin Again Recap
Seeing Ling Rui walk past her, Lu Fangning couldn't help but feel disappointed, wondering if Ling Rui truly hated her. Lu Fangning was unable to concentrate on work several times and hastily dismissed the meeting. To avoid meeting Ling Rui, Lu Fangning specifically chose to walk in the opposite direction of the School of Medicine. Lu Yiyao was tormented by Lu Youyou to the point of having no distracting thoughts, but Lu Youyou also found Lu Yiyao's daily life boring.
He could only beg Lu Yiyao to chat with him. However, Lu Yiyao just maintained a helpless expression, looking completely indifferent, and even his lunch was just instant food. Lu Youyou could only shout as he called Lu Fangning to complain. Lu Fangning came to the school's convenience store. Even though she walked in the opposite direction, she still ran into Ling Rui. Lu Fangning awkwardly hid behind the food shelves, but was still discovered by Ling Rui.
He walked directly to Lu Fangning's side, maintaining a calm expression. The two exchanged a 'long time no see'. This time they actually met and talked, but Lu Fangning felt somewhat dazed. However, Ling Rui only said a few words before leaving with his documents. Lu Fangning sat on a wooden bench on campus, feeling quite troubled, when she saw Ling Rui walking towards her again. This time it wasn't an accident.
Ling Rui asked Lu Fangning if she would have dinner with him. After Lu Fangning blankly agreed, they sat side by side on the bench. Ling Rui asked when Lu Fangning had returned to the country and if she had come back alone. Lu Fangning answered with her mouth, but her heart was undergoing torment. Finally unable to bear it, Lu Fangning mustered up the courage and apologized for leaving without a word back then.
She also promised that after she finished her work, she would completely disappear from Ling Rui's life. Ling Rui just maintained a polite smile and left with a simple: "Understood." Lu Fangning saw that Ling Rui didn't give a firm stance, and an awkward atmosphere flowed between the two. Unable to bear the pressure, Lu Fangning escaped again, while Ling Rui watched her hurried departure and pondered inwardly.
Cai Siyu fell into a writing crisis; her inspiration had dried up like a parched field. At this moment, her editor called Cai Siyu to inform her that her famous work was suspected of being plagiarized. In a fit of anger, Cai Siyu explained to the editor that everything in this famous work was based on her own personal experiences. . . Lu Fangning brought Lu Youyou home, but still couldn't stop thinking about meeting Ling Rui today.
To avoid being tempted by Ling Rui's charm, Lu Fangning decided to finish her work as soon as possible and take Lu Youyou back abroad. After working through the night, Lu Fangning finally completed all her tasks and started packing her luggage early in the morning. But Lu Youyou was utterly unwilling, whining and not wanting to go back.
At this moment, Shen Zhuo came to Lu Fangning's house and mentioned a new job involving brand entry into the park, which was a great opportunity to enter the domestic market. Unwilling to miss the chance to expand her brand, Lu Fangning had no choice but to accept the new job and stay to continue working. Lu Youyou was overjoyed upon hearing this, quickly adjusted his mood, and threw himself into Lu Fangning's embrace.
Lu Yiyao saw the Weibo post Cai Siyu made clarifying the plagiarism rumors and couldn't help but fall into reminiscence. Thinking of the happy moments he had shared with Cai Siyu, Lu Yiyao's lips honestly curled up. Shen Zhuo and Lu Fangning came to the art park to discuss cooperation. The unexpectedly smooth process made Lu Fangning very confused.
It wasn't until she saw Ling Rui shaking hands with Mr. Cao, the person in charge of the park, that Lu Fangning realized all of this was due to Ling Rui's help. Seeing Ling Rui step through the door, Shen Zhuo, not wanting to be a third wheel, was about to use the excuse of getting his cast removed to escape, but was caught by Lu Fangning to play the role of "fake couple".
Ling Rui also voluntarily offered to accompany them. Seeing the sparks between Ling Rui and Lu Fangning, Shen Zhuo couldn't interject, so the three of them had to go to the hospital where Ling Rui worked. Shen Zhuo sat in the medical room getting his cast removed. Ling Rui stood at the door waiting, specifically guarding to prevent Lu Fangning from leaving.
Hearing the doctor removing the cast gossip about Ling Rui, Lu Fangning couldn't help but speak up to defend herself. Ling Rui, listening stealthily at the door, couldn't help but smile broadly. Seeing that Ling Rui was still waiting at the door, Lu Fangning wanted to pretend to have a stomach ache and slip away, but was caught by Ling Rui and taken for an examination.
While examining her, Ling Rui told Lu Fangning that he had learned from Mr. Cao that Shen Zhuo and Lu Fangning were just ordinary collaborators. Seeing her plan fail, Lu Fangning could only sit honestly in her seat. Knowing that Lu Fangning had a recurring stomach problem, Ling Rui wrote out a prescription and handed it to Lu Fangning, and then quietly told Lu Fangning that his phone number had never changed. Hearing these rather suggestive words, Lu Fangning was stunned and couldn't speak.
