Confess Your Love Episode 10 Recap
> Confess Your Love Recap
The situation with the producer's wife escalated as she continued to express doubt about Lu Xun and Lin Chen's relationship, despite having witnessed them kissing. Lu Xun calmly explained that he was simply accompanying his girlfriend, and the dinner took place at his hotel. The woman, however, was adamant, accusing them of fabricating the relationship to cover up for Lin Chen and presenting photos as proof. Lu Xun dismissed the photos as mere misleading angles from many shots.
He challenged her to ask President Liu for all the photographs, asserting that the truth about who was lying would then become clear. He further pointed out that if Lin Chen truly intended to leverage President Liu for personal gain, she would have done so privately, not in front of many people, and certainly wouldn't have left any "proof" behind.
Lu Xun then revealed that President Liu had consumed too much alcohol the previous night and had attempted to harass Lin Chen, leading Lu Xun to kick him on his right shoulder. He urged Mrs. Liu to go back and verify this detail for herself. He added that if she still harbored doubts, she could arrange for President Liu to meet him in person to discuss the events, but questioned whether President Liu would dare to face him.
Lu Xun concluded that if President Liu declined to appear, it would be evident who was lying. As Lu Xun concluded his statements, he addressed the gathered crowd, declaring that now that the situation was clarified, the hotel would pursue accountability. He informed them that their legal department would record their information for trespassing into the hotel without permission and disturbing guests, reserving the right to investigate.
Hearing this, the crowd quickly dispersed, apologizing and insisting it was all a misunderstanding. Meanwhile, news of the "Lin Lu Couple" went viral online, with netizens celebrating their "official announcement." Lin Chen's manager, Jiaojie, discussed with her staff the temporary suspension of filming for their show, and the plan to issue a joint statement with the production team. Jiaojie expressed regret about not retaliating against Mrs. Liu, noting that as newcomers with little reputation, any misstep could be disastrous.
She credited Lu Xun for his quick thinking, acknowledging that without his intervention, they would have struggled to explain the situation. At the hospital, Zheng Ziyan saw the trending topic #LinLuCoupleOfficialAnnouncement on his phone. He confronted Lin Chen, asking if she and Lu Xun were genuinely together, which Lin Chen quickly denied. Shortly after, Lu Xun arrived. Lin Chen sat cautiously between the two men, refraining from speaking.
Zheng Ziyan questioned Lu Xun, asking why he claimed to be Lin Chen's boyfriend rather than just her boss, and if the kiss was truly necessary, suggesting a hug would have sufficed. Lu Xun simply replied that he forgot. Zheng Ziyan probed further, asking why Lu Xun would so kindly help Lin Chen when he wasn't involved. Lu Xun clarified that his involvement was a business matter.
He explained that President Liu was backed by Smart Alliance System, which owned numerous top hotels, and the incident occurred at SW Hotel. If Lin Chen had been slandered, Smart Alliance would inevitably turn it into an issue for SW.
When Zheng Ziyan expressed concern that others might contradict Lu Xun's story about being at the dinner, Lu Xun assured him that no one would dare anger President Liu or offend SW, and President Liu himself would avoid issuing a public statement, thereby revealing who was truthful. Lu Xun then asked Lin Chen if she had offended anyone recently, a question she denied.
The tense conversation was interrupted when Lin Chen declared she was hungry and offered to make noodles for everyone. Lu Xun then suggested they eat outside instead. As they prepared to leave, it began to rain. Lin Chen offered to retrieve umbrellas. Zheng Ziyan, however, initially refused to leave Lu Xun and Lin Chen alone, before Lin Chen insisted she would go.
Alone, Zheng Ziyan confronted Lu Xun, calling him "full of schemes," to which Lu Xun retorted that it was better than being "stupid and actually stupid." Zheng Ziyan warned Lu Xun not to get ahead of himself, emphasizing that until Lin Chen explicitly stated her intentions, Lu Xun was merely an old schoolmate who had transferred away. Zheng Ziyan then questioned why Lu Xun, being so shrewd, hadn't simply asked Lin Chen what was written in a certain letter.
Suddenly, Lu Xun noticed someone tracking them. He urgently instructed Zheng Ziyan to take Lin Chen upstairs and stay with her, emphasizing not to leave her side, as something urgent had come up. Lu Xun then pursued the person he suspected was following them. In the rain, he encountered a man who held a long-standing grudge against him from their past. The man immediately challenged Lu Xun, asking if he remembered him.
A flashback showed a chemistry book belonging to "Lin Chen, Year 3 Class 8," hinting at a shared past involving her. The man then taunted Lu Xun, calling him a "brat" for trying to be a hero, implying a past incident where Lu Xun intervened to protect someone. Lu Xun firmly warned the man, "Don't touch her," and cautioned him about the legal consequences of his actions, stating that every wrong step would lead to another year in prison.
The man, enraged, refused to be lectured by Lu Xun and threatened to teach him a lesson for trying to save someone that day. Lu Xun revealed he had already called the police. The man struggled, demanding to be released and warning Lu Xun that he would regret this for the rest of his life and that he would return for him.
