Fall In Love With A Scientist Episode 15 Recap
> Fall In Love With A Scientist Recap
Yang Lanhang posed the same hypothetical question to Bai Lingling: if only he and Zheng Minghao were left on Earth, whom would she choose? She firmly replied that she has a boyfriend. Later, in her room, Bai Lingling called her online boyfriend. Yang Lanhang, in his adjacent room, picked up the phone. He asked her about the progress of her seminar, and she mentioned that Yang Lanhang had helped her by annotating the English content, making it understandable.
Bai Lingling then asked why he still hadn't added her on WeChat. He admitted he was initially afraid she wouldn't accept the real him, fearing she might block him. Bai Lingling playfully questioned if he was deceiving her, joking if he was actually old, ugly, bald, and had smelly feet. She affirmed that after all these years, she would accept him no matter what, simply because she liked him.
She also shared that his voice had become incredibly familiar, and lately, she felt as if he was right beside her. Yang Lanhang, moved, put the call on speaker and played a harmonica tune, gently lulling her to sleep. Upon Bai Lingling's return from Shenzhen, Guan Xiaoyu received a call informing her that Geng Panpan had been located, and Bai Lingling immediately joined her to find him.
When they arrived, Ouyang Yifan was confronting Geng Panpan, insisting he face Guan Xiaoyu. Panpan, ashamed, tried to leave, believing his disappearance would allow Yifan to pursue Guan Xiaoyu. Yifan, however, was resolute in making Panpan meet her. Panpan then accused Yifan of hypocrisy, pointing out that Yifan acted indifferent despite his deep affection for Guan Xiaoyu, unlike Panpan who dared to pursue his feelings.
Provoked, Yifan retaliated by grabbing Panpan's hair until Bai Lingling intervened, prompting Yifan to wait outside. Geng Panpan then spoke privately with Guan Xiaoyu, apologizing and promising to repay her money. He revealed that despite his roommates dropping the theft charges, he had confessed to the university via email and expected to be expelled, accepting full responsibility for his actions.
He told Guan Xiaoyu that his decision to send her flowers and confess his feelings was his own doing and that he deserved the consequences. Feeling remorseful, Guan Xiaoyu tried to offer help, but Panpan insisted she had already done too much and urged her to no longer concern herself with his affairs. After Geng Panpan left, Ouyang Yifan inquired about the conversation and, learning it didn't go well, reminded Guan Xiaoyu that Panpan still owed her money.
Guan Xiaoyu then invited Ouyang Yifan to be her male companion for the SP Group dinner next week. Although Ouyang Yifan initially hesitated, suggesting it might upset other girls interested in him, he quickly agreed when Guan Xiaoyu turned to leave, citing her bad mood as his reason.
The animal experiment was set for the next day, but Zhai Qingyi was disheartened to learn from Doctor Li that his role was merely to assist with material inspections, not the core experiment. Feeling unimportant, especially after Doctor Li, called away for an emergency, instructed him to place cells in the incubator without opening them, Zhai Qingyi succumbed to curiosity and opened the culture dish. When Yang Lanhang entered, he noticed Qingyi's frantic behavior by the refrigerator.
Qingyi confessed that he had opened the dish, and the slippery cells had fallen onto the clean bench. Yang Lanhang sternly reprimanded him, stating that his momentary ambition and curiosity had undone weeks of preparation, forcing the entire experiment to restart and disappointing everyone, including Doctor Li and the patients awaiting new materials. Moments later, Doctor Li returned, and Yang Lanhang, holding the contaminated culture dish, claimed responsibility for the error.
Doctor Li, furious at Yang Lanhang's apparent carelessness, berated both of them and ordered them out of the lab. Outside the lab, Zhai Qingyi, overwhelmed with guilt, wanted to confess to Doctor Li, but Yang Lanhang dismissed it, stating that no confession could undo the contamination. Yang Lanhang then called Professor Jiang, reporting the cell contamination and taking full responsibility for the incident.
Professor Jiang, initially suspecting Zhai Qingyi and ordering his expulsion, was persuaded by Yang Lanhang's insistence on his own fault, and thus agreed to issue disciplinary action against Yang Lanhang instead. After the call, Yang Lanhang confronted Zhai Qingyi about his lingering resentment over being assigned to Doctor Li for "errands" instead of attending the Shenzhen seminar. Yang Lanhang clarified that Professor Jiang had praised Qingyi's youth, intelligence, and talent multiple times.
His intention was to cultivate Qingyi, encouraging him to cherish his gifts rather than becoming arrogant and unrealistic. He emphasized that learning foundational skills from Doctor Li was far more crucial than attending the Shenzhen seminar. Zhai Qingyi finally understood Yang Lanhang's thoughtful intentions and expressed his sincere gratitude, calling him "guru." During a team meeting, Yang Lanhang announced that the previous sheep animal experiment was postponed due to cell contamination.
They would now proceed with a primate animal experiment on a macaque named Zoey from a nearby zoo, whose heart had severe calcification. He explained that Zoey's heart valve had been 3D printed, and a stent was ready; their immediate focus was cell extraction, planting, and cultivation. After the meeting, Bai Lingling confessed to Yang Lanhang that she found it hard to believe he would make such a basic error as cell contamination.
She also suggested contacting an animal research institute in Yunnan, but Yang Lanhang revealed he had already applied for resources there and hoped to cure Zoey before resorting to other options. Observing Zoey through the glass, Bai Lingling offered words of encouragement, promising to take Zoey out for fun and good food once it recovered, and then took a photo with the primate to remember its bravery.
Later, Yang Lanhang invited Bai Lingling to be his female companion for his mother's dinner party that Friday. Bai Lingling, noting she already had a boyfriend and it might be inappropriate to attend with another man, suggested a suitable alternative, which Yang Lanhang accepted without hesitation, simply happy to have a companion. Yang Lanhang's mother, Gong Liyan, was ecstatic after her husband recounted seeing Yang Lanhang emerge from Bai Lingling's room that morning in Shenzhen.
She confidently declared that she was about to become a mother-in-law, even nearly choking her husband in her excitement. She immediately insisted on changing his tie to ensure he looked his best for the evening, eager to meet the girl her son liked. At the dinner party, Guan Xiaoyu arrived with Ouyang Yifan, immediately instructing him not to follow her. Inside, Ouyang Yifan spotted his twin brother, Ouyang, attending alone and playfully teased him about not having a female companion.
Ouyang, however, silently walked away. Meanwhile, in the lab, Cui Jing silently looked at the evening gown that Ouyang had sent to her. She had eagerly awaited his invitation to the dinner party, but he hesitated and ultimately failed to ask her, leaving her to spend the evening alone. At the dinner party, Yang Lanhang arrived with Bai Lingling's grandmother as his companion.
Yang Lanhang's mother, Gong Liyan, approached them, initially confused about who his companion was, but greeted the grandmother warmly upon realizing she was Bai Lingling's relative. The elegantly dressed grandmother was delighted by the event and Gong Liyan's hospitality. As the evening progressed, Yang Lanhang and his mother noticed Bai Lingling was nowhere to be found, so Yang Lanhang went to search for her.
On his way, he encountered Ouyang Yifan, who encouraged him to seize the "rare chance" of the grand occasion to confess his feelings to Bai Lingling, assuring him that no girl would refuse a public declaration of love, and even offering to help with preparations. Bai Lingling, spotting her father and his companion, hid behind a pillar and called Yang Lanhang over.
She told him she wanted to leave early due to her father's presence and asked him to discreetly escort her grandmother out, fearing an emotional outburst from her grandmother if they met. Unknown to Bai Lingling, her grandmother, Wu Chunhua, had already encountered Bai's father.
Wu Chunhua implored him to pretend they were strangers to Bai Lingling, explaining that her granddaughter had high self-esteem and she didn't want her to be humiliated by the world knowing she had a father who seemingly didn't care for her. Bai's father, filled with guilt, was speechless. Just then, Bai Lingling emerged and led her grandmother away. Following Gong Liyan's welcome speech, Yang Lanhang invited Wu Chunhua, Bai Lingling's grandmother, to share the first dance.
Wu Chunhua gracefully and happily took to the dance floor, a sight that brought a smile to Bai Lingling's face. Later, Bai Lingling received a note from her father, stating that he and his companion had left and wished for her and her grandmother to enjoy the rest of the evening without any discomfort.
