Confess Your Love Episode 17 Recap
> Confess Your Love Recap
Upon seeing the unfolding scene, Lin Chen was stunned. Facing numerous media outlets, she awkwardly responded to Lu Xun's question and agreed to become his wife. Liu Yan continued to challenge them, questioning if Lu Xun was taking fans for fools and demanding why they should believe in love over a contractual agreement. Lu Xun firmly countered by taking Lin Chen's hand, revealing the diamond ring he had given her.
He emphasized that as a businessman, he wouldn't simply gift a ring worth US$900,000 "for fun," effectively silencing Liu Yan and publicly humiliating her. Furious, Liu Yan returned to her room, shouting, "How dare you, Lin Wan!" Her manager quickly intervened, urging her to lower her voice and refrain from posting on social media. Liu Yan then received a call from an unknown number.
Believing the caller was the person who had advised her earlier and was now conspiring with Lin Wan, she angrily accused him of setting a trap to embarrass her before abruptly hanging up. Just then, the man himself entered her room. When she threatened to call the police, the man unnervingly mentioned a mole on her chest, hinting at a shared, dark past.
He reminded her of an unforgettable night from six years prior and revealed he possessed numerous incriminating photographs of her. He then coerced Liu Yan into a new plan: invite Lu Xun out and falsely accuse him of assault within three days. When Liu Yan refused, the man pressured her further, revealing that "Liu Yan" was not her real name and that he held the secrets of her "most dreadful past."
As a final, twisted revelation, he told her that Lin Chen, whom she had been antagonizing, was the one who had saved her years ago. Meanwhile, a reporter persisted in questioning Lu Xun, arguing that the engagement didn't prove he hadn't lied. Lu Xun announced that their official engagement would take place in three days, with SW broadcasting the event and inviting selected media for questions.
He instructed Lin Chen to go home and wait for him, then tasked his assistant with arranging her transport and compiling a list of all media present. Immediately after, Lu Xun began investigating the mysterious man. Deducing the man must have used a company pass to access the private lift without being on any official lists, he inquired about new staff hired in the last three months.
His suspicions were later confirmed when human resources reported that the man's information was all fake. Lu Xun then communicated with the mysterious man, warning him, "If you dare touch her, I will not let you leave Jiangbei alive." Unfazed, the man taunted Lu Xun for his panic, boasting that his fake identity made him untraceable and that his plans were "just getting started."
While Lu Xun was investigating, the mysterious man impersonated a driver sent by "Vice President Lu" and drove Lin Chen home. Upon reuniting with Lin Chen later, Lu Xun immediately embraced her. Sensing his unusual behavior, Lin Chen privately pondered if Lu Xun might truly be in love with her, especially after he gave her such an expensive ring.
However, recalling a past high school confession of hers that was rejected, she was advised by her friend to subtly ascertain Lu Xun's true feelings and wait for him to declare his love first. Lu Xun was also advised against an impulsive confession. Both decide to continue testing each other's true intentions.
