Go Go Squid! Episode 24 Recap
> Go Go Squid! Recap
A farewell dinner for brothers turned into a breakup meal between Han Shangyan and Tong Nian. Tong Nian was both angry and sad about what Han Shangyan did, but she just couldn't hate him.
After Tong Nian ran out of the restaurant crying all the way, Yaya, who was originally taking care of her idol Xiao Mi, was more worried about the girl Tong Nian, so she immediately said something to her idol and chased after her to comfort Tong Nian. Meanwhile, Han Shangyan slowly walked out of the restaurant, waiting for his brother Mi Shaofei to finish vomiting comfortably, and at the same time started calling a designated driver.
By Han Shangyan's car, after the two girls, Tong Nian and Yaya, finished complaining about Han Shangyan together, Tong Nian felt a little better and started worrying about the two guys who had too much to drink. So, the two decided to wait until Han Shangyan and Xiao Mi came out before leaving. But when Tong Nian saw Han Shangyan, she couldn't move her feet.
Even though she was so angry that tears were falling non-stop, Tong Nian, after Yaya said something, sat in the back seat, with Han Shangyan on her left and Mi Shaofei on her right. The driver first took Tong Nian and Yaya back to school.
All the way, Tong Nian was very sad, so much so that when Mi Shaofei, who was drunk, leaned his head on her shoulder, and Han Shangyan jealously pushed Mi Shaofei away, Tong Nian didn't even notice. After getting out of the car, Han Shangyan seriously said that Tong Nian had nothing else to do besides dating. This seriousness contained too many feelings that Han Shangyan couldn't express, but only heaven and earth knew, while Tong Nian didn't.
So, after Tong Nian separated from Han Shangyan, she used fixing bugs in her dorm to numb the nerve that made her miss Han Shangyan. This led Yaya and other roommates to come and comfort the heartbroken Tong Nian. Back at the K&K club, Han Shangyan was facing a headache-inducing issue. This matter was something he wanted to spend even less time on than Mi Shaofei's retirement or his forced separation from Tong Nian.
That was, not only were young team member DEMO's parents getting a divorce, but DEMO's mother also didn't want DEMO to continue playing matches at this club. The reason was that DEMO graduated from a vocational high school, and this competition couldn't guarantee his future. She hoped DEMO would go out into society to gain experience and have a good future path.
After Shen Zhe, 97, and Su Cheng tried to persuade DEMO's mother without success, Han Shangyan waited until he sobered up and felt better, then changed into a neat and proper suit and went to meet young team member DEMO's mother in his capacity as the club owner. It was dinner time then, and DEMO's mother hadn't seen the owner all day, so she couldn't eat.
When Han Shangyan arrived and saw the situation, he solemnly invited DEMO's mother to a high-end restaurant to eat and talk about DEMO's work. At the dinner table, Han Shangyan spoke passionately about DEMO's dream and how the K&K club was the best platform in China to realize DEMO's dream.
As for the issues DEMO's mother was concerned about, there was nothing a good Party A contract couldn't solve; if this one didn't work, they would draft another one with better terms and conditions. As expected, under the combined influence of persuasion and implied authority from owner Han Shangyan, DEMO's mother agreed for DEMO to continue pursuing his dream of becoming a world champion.
After the work matter was settled, the emotional issues left Han Shangyan physically and mentally exhausted, and his stamina was low. So, Han Shangyan, who had been putting on a brave face in front of Tong Nian, put aside his idol image and called Lan Mei's husband, who is also the husband of Tong Nian's best friend.
In the coffee shop, Lan Mei, having heard earlier that Tong Nian had been dumped by Han Shangyan again, and also knowing that Han Shangyan had asked to meet her husband, became furious and followed along. Lan Mei wanted to see what kind of trick Han Shangyan was up to.
Lan Mei didn't expect that the dignified club owner Han Shangyan currently only had two thousand yuan in savings, and this was what Han Shangyan intended for Lan Mei to take Tong Nian out to eat delicious food and have fun, to relax and feel happy. But when Lan Mei took the money to find Tong Nian, the nature of the money changed.
Lan Mei claimed that Han Shangyan might be pretending to be poor and giving Tong Nian a breakup fee. When Tong Nian saw the money in the envelope, she looked displeased. No matter how much money it was, she couldn't take Han Shangyan's, let alone a breakup fee! A good daughter should be self-reliant. Thinking this, Tong Nian got into a taxi.
Learning from her previous experience, the little loli called 97 first this time and learned that Han Shangyan's team was going to compete in Beijing and was currently waiting for their flight at Shanghai airport. So, Tong Nian, clutching the envelope containing two thousand yuan, told the driver to drive to where Han Shangyan was. After arriving at the airport, Tong Nian found Han Shangyan, and the two had a private talk.
During the conversation, Tong Nian's tears flowed on her face, while Han Shangyan's tears flowed in his heart. Tong Nian said that although Han Shangyan's attitude towards love was not proper, she admired and supported his attitude towards his career K&K. As for the money, Tong Nian felt she had to return it to Han Shangyan, regardless of her family's financial condition or her personal upbringing.
Han Shangyan took the envelope, expressionless, and told the boys to go to the boarding gate early, and arranged for 97 to get a taxi for Tong Nian. Backstage at the China regional qualifiers quarterfinals in Beijing, Director Xiang mentioned Han Shangyan's girlfriend Tong Nian again, and recklessly expressed his desire to pursue Tong Nian. As a result, even though Han Shangyan said Tong Nian was no longer his girlfriend, under Han Shangyan's sharp gaze, Director Xiang didn't dare to harbor wicked thoughts.
