Go Go Squid! Episode 38 Recap
> Go Go Squid! Recap
In the dim twilight, Han Shangyan accompanied Tong Nian back to the Tong family's home. Because Tong Nian suggested that she hoped Han Shangyan would eat dinner at her home before leaving, he wanted to formally visit Tong Nian's parents again for his girlfriend. As soon as they entered the door, Tong Nian realized her mom and dad hadn't gotten off work yet, which made the couple in love feel slightly nervous.
The sky was dark, there were walls all around, Han Shangyan was a man, Tong Nian was a woman, naturally, if something indescribable were to happen, what should they do? After the two finished being awkward, they finally couldn't control themselves and hugged. And precisely at this moment, Tong Nian's dad came back. The two quickly separated, found places in the living room, sat far apart, and sat up straight.
After the shyness, Tong Nian's dad had already prepared the hot meals. Tong Nian's mom and dad, Han Shangyan and Tong Nian, the four of them had dinner together like a family. During the meal, Tong Nian's mom kept looking at Han Shangyan with a scrutinizing gaze, while Tong Nian's dad told Han Shangyan not to be too constrained.
After Han Shangyan lightly mentioned that he always ate boxed meals at the club, Tong Nian's dad warmly invited his future son-in-law to come often in the future. And Tong Nian immediately excitedly shifted the topic to Han Shangyan winning the championship yesterday. Just as she was about to talk endlessly, Han Shangyan gently kicked Tong Nian under the table.
It turned out that Han Shangyan was afraid that his future parents-in-law wouldn't be interested in this, so to avoid causing displeasure, he adopted a strategy of talking less and eating more. Furthermore, to leave a good impression on the elderly couple, Han Shangyan actively took on the dishwashing service.
After such a simple ordinary family dinner, Tong Nian felt that the distance between Han Shangyan and herself was no longer Tong Nian following behind Han Shangyan, quickly shuffling small steps, but rather Han Shangyan was trying to integrate into Tong Nian's home and become an indispensable part of Tong Nian's life. Therefore, Tong Nian reluctantly saw Han Shangyan out of her house, all the way to Han Shangyan's car.
The two also encountered the community security guard who had witnessed Han Shangyan's dork-like image multiple times. The security guard also highly praised the young man's spirit of pursuing love to Tong Nian. After the security guard left, seeing the little loli's hesitant look, Han Shangyan instantly understood and leaned in for a deep kiss to satisfy Tong Nian. The two, who were slowly developing a tacit understanding, also received Tong Nian's mom's blessing.
After Han Shangyan left, Tong Nian's mom came to Tong Nian's room. She answered all of her daughter Tong Nian's previous confusions one by one. Tong Nian's mom explained her initial misunderstanding that Han Shangyan was an old man pursuing a young girl as a new lover.
And on the day Han Shangyan's stepmother invited Tong Nian's parents to a banquet, Tong Nian's mom seriously asked Han Shangyan, and the answer from this future son-in-law made his future mother-in-law very satisfied. That was, Han Shangyan said that he increasingly cherished Tong Nian and hoped that he would be the person to spend his life with her.
As someone who had been through it, Tong Nian's mom clearly understood that when you meet the right person, some words are spoken in unison, like a legacy. Only if there isn't enough love will it be incomparable. After listening to Tong Nian's mom's words, Tong Nian also shyly and vaguely told her mom that she was indeed very happy to be with Han Shangyan. And not long ago, Han Shangyan also proposed to her.
It's just that, even Tong Nian herself didn't expect that by not agreeing, she had indirectly rejected Han Shangyan. When Tong Nian asked for her mother's opinion, Tong Nian's mom said that there was no right or wrong in this matter, and she only hoped that her daughter would carefully consider any decision she made. Although Tong Nian was known as a girl who was silly about everything except studying, Tong Nian seemed to understand her mother's words.
While their relationship was smooth sailing, his career path seemed a bit bumpy. The next morning, BUFF arrived at the K&K club as scheduled, waiting for Han Shangyan to hold a formal welcome meeting for him.
And at the welcome meeting, despite BUFF sincerely introducing himself to the team youngsters, and with strong support for the new member from boss Han Shangyan and team leader Mi Shaofei, the youngsters saw the situation as a sign that members would be replaced as substitutes. So they only outwardly agreed, but couldn't feel happy at all. After the meeting, the youngsters maintained this state until Mi Shaofei finished introducing the training area and training content to BUFF.
Then, Han Shangyan had the youngsters come into his room for a private meeting. The youngsters' uneasy hearts, furrowed brows, and pale lips were all indicating to Han Shangyan: Boss, just tell us directly who you want to replace, we can accept it. And among Shen Zhe, 97, DEMO, and ONE, DEMO and ONE were ranked the lowest, which everyone knew clearly.
But Han Shangyan still stated frankly that the list in his head was blank, and the final elimination would be based on strength. Finally, Han Shangyan kept 97. Originally, 97 thought he was the one who would be replaced, feeling both sad and thinking that the boss must be reluctant to let him go.
Fortunately, Han Shangyan directly said that among these few, only 97 was suitable for leading everyone to foster unity, and he didn't want this team adjustment to affect the youngsters' feelings, nor did he want BUFF to be isolated and not feel the team atmosphere.
So, on the second day of team training, when the K&K members finished their morning exercise and returned to the club for lunch together, BUFF was watching the other teammates forming groups while he was alone. 97, who was skilled at observation and had extremely high emotional intelligence, immediately gave his juice to BUFF and said it was specially taken for BUFF.
Seeing 97 taking care of the new member, Shen Zhe, DEMO, and ONE all started making fun, telling BUFF that 97 was being subtly tricky. Once BUFF takes 97 as a buddy, 97 will take BUFF as a follower. Suddenly, everyone became lively and even actively invited BUFF to join their table for the meal.
At the female dormitory of Jiaodong University in Shanghai, Tong Nian was drying clothes, and Zheng Hui, who had been suffering from lovesickness for the past few days, came to Tong Nian's window. Although Tong Nian said she would come out to find Zheng Hui in a moment, Zheng Hui immediately thought that Han Shangyan, that old man, must have been inside Tong Nian's dorm.
A surge of jealousy rose in his heart, and Zheng Hui couldn't care less about many things. This glasses-wearing man, changing his usual mild-mannered image, rushed into the girls' dormitory and rudely confessed his feelings to Tong Nian. This made Tong Nian initially like a startled bird, trying to avoid senior Zheng Hui as much as possible. And slowly, Zheng Hui revealed his disappointment and pleaded, and Tong Nian, facing this secret admirer, felt only pity and apology.
At the same time, Tong Nian realized even more that her entire heart belonged to Han Shangyan. Because when Zheng Hui asked Tong Nian if she liked Han Shangyan, Tong Nian almost blurted out that it was love.
