Forever Love Episode 23 Recap
> Forever Love Recap
General Manager Xie, in order to fully support Jiang Zhenghan, decided to leave the company himself. This company was no longer the one he used to know, and he had already considered leaving for a long time. He told Jiang Zhenghan not to mind the gossip. Gu Xiaoman was very worried. She couldn't contact Jiang Zhenghan or Xia Linxi and asked Chen Yichuan for help to find a way. Duan Ning and Chen Yichuan knew about Jiang Zhenghan's situation.
Neither of them believed Jiang Zhenghan leaked secrets. Just then, the counselor called looking for Jiang Zhenghan, and Zhang Huaiwu thought Jiang Zhenghan was going to be expelled. Chen Yichuan, Duan Ning, and Zhang Huaiwu went to the counselor to speak up for Jiang Zhenghan. They unanimously affirmed Jiang Zhenghan's character, believing he would never do something like leaking company secrets. The counselor actually just wanted to find Jiang Zhenghan to understand the specific situation.
There was a lot of criticism online, and after Jiang Zhenghan returned to school, he also said he wouldn't do such a thing, but he was truly sorry for the impact caused to the school. Xia Linxi finally found Jiang Zhenghan, but He Guangyu brought people to deliberately provoke trouble, insulting Jiang Zhenghan as trash and also saying Xia Linxi had poor judgment. After hearing this, Jiang Zhenghan impulsively punched He Guangyu.
He Guangyu was relentless, but fortunately, Professor Shi stepped in to resolve the situation. Acavis announced Jiang Zhenghan's dismissal. Professor Shi hoped Acavis Company would step forward to provide an explanation and clear Jiang Zhenghan's name. The senior students from the computer science department also helped search for evidence, hoping to help rectify this matter for Jiang Zhenghan. Everyone collaborated, dividing tasks, and they all believed Jiang Zhenghan was innocent.
Professor Shi said that where there is light, there will be shadows, and where there are shadows, they originate from light. He believed his judgment was not wrong, and the truth would eventually come to light. Given Jiang Zhenghan's capabilities, he had no need to leak secrets at all. Xia Linxi and Gu Xiaoman provided logistical support, buying dumplings for everyone as a late-night snack. Jiang Zhenghan was very happy eating the dumplings.
Xia Linxi said they were bought from the cafeteria, but she would learn how to make dumplings from Jiang's mother in the future and then make them for Jiang Zhenghan to eat. Xia Linxi went to the supermarket to buy many household items, but only realized when paying that all her bank cards were frozen. Xia Linxi thought of the harsh words her mother had said before, but she didn't use the bank card Jiang Zhenghan gave her.
Instead, she looked for after-school tutoring part-time jobs online. Xia Linxi came to a tutoring center for an interview, coincidentally meeting Zhuang Fei who was also there. Zhuang Fei scoffed that Xia Linxi was here to see her fail. During her interview, Xia Linxi said she could tutor six subjects concurrently. During her first trial class, she encountered a male student, Xu Fan, harassing her.
Seeing that Xia Linxi was pretty, Xu Fan secretly took photos of her with his phone during class. After Xia Linxi finished her part-time job and returned home, Jiang Zhenghan noticed she came home three hours later than usual. To avoid distracting Jiang Zhenghan, Xia Linxi didn't tell him about her part-time job. She even secretly made course materials overnight. Xia Linxi came to the tutoring class early in the morning and encountered Xu Fan's mother, who was aggressive.
Xu's mother believed Xia Linxi deliberately seduced her son, accused her of having poor character, being impolite, disrespecting elders, and even splashed coffee on Xia Linxi's white shirt. Seeing this, Zhuang Fei deliberately mocked Xia Linxi, telling her to give up because of the difficulty. Xia Linxi said it was no big deal, that she needed this job because she lacked money, and being short of money was not something to be ashamed of.
The tutoring class colleagues all came to comfort Xia Linxi, knowing she had been wronged. Seeing this, Zhuang Fei was very jealous. Qin Yue saw Xia Linxi enter the tutoring class and angrily went to argue with Jiang Zhenghan again, saying he wasn't qualified to be with Xia Linxi and was unable to protect her. Jiang Zhenghan thought Qin Yue was coming to talk to him about the company project.
He pointed out that he had originally thought that between the two of them, wins and losses would be honorable, and they would maintain a bottom line in their conduct. However, Qin Yue did not admit that Jiang Zhenghan being framed was related to himself. He casually threw a promotional poster at Jiang Zhenghan and left. Jiang Zhenghan was surprised to see that the person advertised as a tutor on the poster was Xia Linxi.
Xia Linxi suffered a great deal of grievance at the tutoring center. Jiang Zhenghan didn't expose her but just gave Xia Linxi a big hug. Jiang Zhenghan felt that he hadn't protected Xia Linxi well and had even let her go out to work part-time for his sake.
