First Romance Episode 12 Recap
> First Romance Recap
On Christmas night, the video of Yan Ke and Tang Tang playing a four-hand piano piece was uploaded online. University students were discussing how well-matched this golden couple was. Xiong Yifan happened to see Yan Ke and Tang Tang walking together on campus and quickly hid, not wanting to see another scene of them being intimate.
Tang Tang had thought that this time Yan Ke would give up his date with Xiong Yifan and choose her, which would naturally represent his choice in terms of relationships. However, after this incident, Yan Ke made his rejection of Tang Tang even clearer, stating that his willingness to help was merely out of consideration for their childhood friendship as sweethearts.
Meanwhile, Xiong Yifan, who was furious at Yan Ke and Tang Tang's intimate appearance, once again encountered Bai Yuze, who was like a persistent pest. This time, Bai Yuze was even more proactive in teasing her, making Xiong Yifan desperately try to avoid him. Fortunately, the coach arrived in time, allowing her to escape his entanglement. Although the new coach seemed ill-tempered, always keeping a poker face, he singled out Xiong Yifan for training.
While it appeared to be targeting Xiong Yifan, he was actually optimistic about her performance, hoping that more intense training would help Xiong Yifan break through her athletic plateau. Although Ding Ming knew Bai Yuze was a scumbag, she couldn't erase her feelings for him. However, no matter his scumbag nature or Bai Yuze genuinely pursuing Xiong Yifan, it would never be Ding Ming's turn.
When Bai Yuze asked Ding Ming to go on an outdoor shoot together, she refused him because of this. It was said that a once-in-a-century meteor shower would occur in a few days. Tang Tang eagerly invited Yan Ke, but he refused. It wasn't until she inadvertently mentioned that a couple could receive blessings from the meteor shower that she finally piqued Yan Ke's interest.
It was clear that Yan Ke wanted to invite Xiong Yifan, but recalling how Xiong Yifan had been avoiding him recently, he had no choice but to ask Qi Xiaosong to invite her on his behalf. Qi Xiaosong and Ding Ming were in charge of secretly inviting Xiong Yifan to the meteor shower, while Yan Ke pretended to just happen to pass by.
However, who knew that he would also invite Tang Tang to the same place, causing Xiong Yifan's good mood to instantly vanish. Especially when Tang Tang discovered Xiong Yifan's presence, she deliberately wore a short skirt and signaled Yan Ke to leave his clothes in her room. Such behavior was clearly intended to mislead others into misunderstanding their relationship. Ding Ming was with the fuming Xiong Yifan helping her tidy the room.
When she went out and came back, she mistakenly entered Bai Yuze's room. It just so happened that Bai Yuze was taking a shower, and startled, he immediately used a bath towel to cover his most important part. Ding Ming had never seen such a situation and thought Bai Yuze was deliberately acting like a pervert. It wasn't until she instinctively grabbed something and hit his lower body that she calmed down. Bai Yuze was there for an outdoor photoshoot.
Coincidentally, these classmates, entangled in "love, hate, and resentment," sat together, seemingly harmonious but inwardly discordant, enjoying lunch. Tang Tang was being attentive to Yan Ke and was also jealous that Yan Ke only had Xiong Yifan on his mind, yet no one was willing to escape the other's gaze. The few of them sat together playing games, and if they could set everything aside, it was indeed a rare moment of youthful innocence.
As night fell, heavy rain poured down. Ding Ming and Bai Yuze left after finishing their photoshoot, and she accidentally twisted her ankle. Bai Yuze looked at the pouring rain and was also worried about Ding Ming's injured ankle. Disregarding the photography equipment in his hand, he carried her on his back and hurried towards the hotel. At the same time, Yan Ke braved the heavy rain to find Xiong Yifan, who couldn't return to the hotel.
Their mutual concern created an ambiguous atmosphere, and Yan Ke finally spoke his expectation aloud. He hoped that Xiong Yifan could actively ask him to stay, without any worries, and should keep him by her side. Tang Tang, who had come looking for Yan Ke because she couldn't wait for him, saw the intimate scene between the two. As the three walked, Tang Tang was like an extra person, walking alone in front.
At the fork in the road, they ran into Bai Yuze carrying Ding Ming on his back. The few of them looked at each other, just as the meteor shower was continuously falling overhead. What should have been the most romantic scene stopped at the most awkward moment.
