First Romance Episode 10 Recap
> First Romance Recap
Ever since seeing Bai Yuze being ambiguous and intimate with other women, Ding Ming couldn't help but think about it from time to time. Hearing how interested Bai Yuze was in Xiong Yifan and how he was thinking about getting closer to her made Ding Ming even more uncomfortable. Ding Ming and Xiong Yifan walked along the school corridor, talking about relationships.
Although Ding Ming didn't say what she saw, she quickly changed tack and urged Xiong Yifan to focus on liking Yan Ke, fearing that she might actually fall for a scumbag like Bai Yuze. Xiong Yifan received another invitation message from Bai Yuze. Without hesitation, she quickly asked Ding Ming for help to go in her place.
Xiong Yifan herself, on the other hand, crammed at the last minute, finding lots of information about classical music and forcing herself to memorize it. The next day in class, Xiong Yifan secretly sent a message inviting Yan Ke to a concert. Unexpectedly, Yan Ke agreed to the date right there in class, in front of many classmates. Such boldness, in the eyes of the female classmates, was concrete proof of Xiong Yifan shamelessly pursuing Yan Ke.
As soon as Xiong Yifan sat down on the concert chair, she started explaining the information she had researched to Yan Ke, wanting to show that she could keep up with him. Unexpectedly, Yan Ke could tell at a glance that it was information found online and didn't understand what Xiong Yifan was talking about at all. Listening to Yan Ke, Xiong Yifan decided she would never look up information online again. The naive her didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Just as the performance began, Xiong Yifan wanted to perk up and enjoy the beauty of the music with Yan Ke, but unexpectedly, she had already fallen into a deep sleep just as the first piece started. At the concert, things didn't go as Xiong Yifan expected, so she had to take Yan Ke to a rock club. The environment inside made them both very uncomfortable.
Compared to the concert hall, it was incredibly noisy and wild, and the singers on stage were popular even when singing off-key. Xiong Yifan quickly took Yan Ke and ran away. Clearly, it was a wrong decision for her to come here based on Ding Ming's recommendation. The last stop for the two was Yan Ke's home. They played games together. Not having to force themselves to accommodate each other was the most comfortable and suitable way to interact.
Yan Ke came back with fruit and saw Xiong Yifan lying asleep on the sofa. A feeling of happiness returned to his face. Meanwhile, Ding Ming, who went on the date in place of Xiong Yifan, accompanied Bai Yuze to take photos in the old streets. These old places would soon disappear.
Besides taking pictures, they couldn't change the progress of the times at all, just like how Ding Ming wanted to help the old man push his cart but ultimately couldn't change the old man's life. Ding Ming sighed about Bai Yuze's indifference, yet Bai Yuze would buy all the strawberries because the old man set up his stall late at night. Suddenly, Ding Ming felt that she couldn't see through the man in front of her at all.
Bai Yuze was a playboy, indifferent, yet lived a clear-sighted life. Perhaps the change in mood altered their fortunes. Good news came from the school: Yan Ke had regained his eligibility to compete, and the current audition at school was his last chance. Meanwhile, Xiong Yifan had to fill in for the second-year competition because a senior was absent.
They were both working hard for each other's dreams, casting aside all distracting thoughts, staying true to their original aspirations, enjoying themselves, surpassing themselves, and not letting competitions and results shackle their hearts. Although their competitions were on the same day, preventing them from being there in person to cheer each other on, the hearts of Xiong Yifan and Yan Ke were intertwined enough to give each other support and the conviction to win. The outcome was beautiful.
Xiong Yifan arrived at the empty performance hall with her gold medal and watched as Yan Ke slowly walked out from backstage. She gradually approached and sat on the performance stage. In the same place, Yan Ke played this time only for Xiong Yifan. They enjoyed the happiness of existing only for each other.
