If The Voice Has Memory Episode 16 Recap
> If The Voice Has Memory Recaps
As the Echo list competition was about to begin, Liang Yiyi, serving as a judge, delivered an emotionally captivating voice performance. She lent her voice to a cat demon character, who, after three months, found her beloved Zongzi still hadn't confessed. Despite Zongzi's fears that his short life would bring her sorrow, the cat demon assured him of her heartless nature and poor memory, promising to forget him and find another cat demon husband if he died.
She then implored Zongzi to marry her, knowing he never wished her sadness and that his hesitation was for her sake, as she, for the first time, wanted to make him happy. Her professional delivery earned widespread acclaim. The competition then officially started with each team taking the stage. When it was the Fengling team's turn, Yu Luxi grew anxious, wondering if Lin Nan had left because he feared seeing her make mistakes.
Just as she prepared to go on stage, Lin Nan appeared with Xiaotian, wearing a Pumpkin Pie battle uniform. He brought Yu Luxi a matching uniform—a hoodie she had given him—and encouraged her, telling her that simply speaking on stage would be a victory. Donning the "master-apprentice" uniform, Yu Luxi's confidence soared, and she vowed to perform well. The Fengling team's performance showcased their best.
Yu Luxi expertly voiced her "younger sister" character, portraying a complex narrative involving an elder martial brother, lost siblings, and the weight of a head seal and a puppet symbol. Her performance was flawless, without a stutter. Zhao Junran, initially nervous, almost forgot his lines while portraying a character who vowed to defy heaven and exact vengeance, but Yu Luxi's quick thinking saved the day, preventing anyone from noticing the near mishap. The audience responded with enthusiastic applause.
During the judging, Liang Yiyi praised the Fengling team's youthful energy and excellent performance, noting how they used their voices to skillfully interpret love and hate, drawing everyone into their characters. She awarded them an impressive ninety-five points. With other judges also giving high scores, the Fengling team achieved a final score of eighty-seven points, two points higher than the rival Youlong team, securing their spot in the finals.
As Lin Nan rushed to the stage and embraced Yu Luxi in celebration, an audience member recognized him as the renowned "Mai Da." Later, at the Fengling team's celebration party, Lin Nan gave a brief speech, commending everyone's excellent performance and encouraging them to enjoy themselves. During the festivities, his teammates noticed the matching Pumpkin Pie uniforms and the "master" inscription on Lin Nan's outfit, revealing that he had officially taken Yu Luxi as his apprentice.
Everyone teased the pair, making them drink toasts. As Yu Luxi became increasingly drunk, insisting she could still drink and even jump down flights of stairs, Lin Nan intervened. He carried her out of the venue, explaining that the steps were too dangerous for her to navigate alone. Outside, under the glowing city lights, Yu Luxi, still a bit tipsy, thanked Lin Nan for believing in her, to which he replied that she had overcome her own challenges.
She then asked him why his voice had changed and why he had stopped his voice acting career. Lin Nan revealed that he had been diagnosed with throat cancer and underwent surgery, which damaged his vocal cords. The doctors told him he could no longer work in voice acting, a devastating blow that meant "Mai Da" would cease to exist.
Deeply moved, Yu Luxi asked if he was in pain and offered to "cure" him as her father used to do when she was a child by blowing on her injuries. Leaning close to his chest, she gently blew on his Adam's apple, asking if he felt better. Overwhelmed by her closeness, Lin Nan leaned in and kissed her. Meanwhile, Liang Yichuan was driving Liang Yiyi home.
Liang Yiyi caught sight of Lin Nan and Yu Luxi's intimate moment, witnessing their kiss, which filled her with a pang of sorrow. Liang Yichuan, however, had only noticed Lin Nan and Yu Luxi's earlier celebratory hug at the venue and remained unaware of the kiss. Liang Yiyi, reflecting on her own unrequited feelings, asked her brother why he liked Yu Luxi but never actively pursued her.
Liang Yichuan, still unaware of the depth of Lin Nan and Yu Luxi's moment, vowed that he could no longer let Lin Nan embrace Yu Luxi. Back at the party, Zhao Junran took the microphone to express his gratitude. He confessed that he initially joined Fengling just for the thrill of voice acting, but the team's quick save during his performance, especially Yu Luxi's help, made him feel a true sense of family.
Zhou Na, after interrupting Zhao Junran, also gave an impassioned speech, thanking everyone for rekindling her hope in running the dubbing class, a venture she was initially skeptical about. She promised to support everyone in the class moving forward. Zhao Junran then highlighted Zhou Na's own sacrifices, including drinking with clients for the team, which had severely affected her stomach and required medication for sleep.
The other team members immediately began teasing them about their closeness, suggesting they might be dating. Zhao Junran, seizing the moment, playfully suggested they "get things done" and amidst cheers, he and Zhou Na shared an embrace, confirming their blossoming relationship. As the night ended, Lin Nan called Xiaotian to meet them downstairs, as Yu Luxi was completely passed out. Xiaotian, upon seeing Lin Nan carrying his unconscious sister on his back, playfully chided him for getting her drunk again.
He fussed over how Lin Nan was holding Yu Luxi, worried about neighbors seeing and spreading gossip, which might harm his sister's reputation. Lin Nan, undeterred, simply told Xiaotian to guide them and assured him that it didn't matter if Yu Luxi "fell into his hands."
