In Love With Your Dimples Episode 13 Recap
> In Love With Your Dimples Recap
He Qizhan confronted Lu Zhiyi about his past relationship with Gu Ling, warning him against any thoughts of reconciliation, stating their fundamental incompatibility. Lu Zhiyi reassured him that he had no intention of revisiting that past. Lu Zhiyi then pressed He Qizhan for details about Tang Shuangli's whereabouts the night He Qiaosheng had gotten drunk. He Qizhan, to alleviate Lu Zhiyi's worries, claimed Tang Shuangli had returned home that night, albeit late, after seeing He Qiaosheng home.
Observing Lu Zhiyi's persistent inquiries, He Qizhan deduced Lu Zhiyi's growing affection for Tang Shuangli. He encouraged Lu Zhiyi to confess his feelings and take initiative, emphasizing that love requires action, not passive waiting, and even cited He Qiaosheng as an example. Lu Zhiyi, seeking guidance, agreed to treat He Qizhan to dinner. Meanwhile, Tang Shuangli sought a distraction at an influencer trampoline park.
Yoon Joon-ho, the park's owner and a friend of He Qiaosheng, sent a picture of Tang Shuangli using He Qiaosheng's card to He Qiaosheng. Despite being in a meeting, He Qiaosheng immediately left, entrusting Ye Lin with the remainder of the discussion, and rushed to the park. Tang Shuangli, still feeling a bit down, invited him to join her in playing. Later, she expressed her gratitude to He Qiaosheng for his friendship, a sentiment he warmly returned.
Yoon Joon-ho's playful teasing about He Qiaosheng ditching work for Tang Shuangli made her blush and retreat to continue jumping. He Qiaosheng then offered to show Tang Shuangli around Zhaoyue Corp, an invitation she accepted. Upon their arrival, he asked Ye Lin to give Tang Shuangli a tour, but Tang Shuangli, sensing Ye Lin's busy schedule and reluctance, gracefully declined the offer and decided to explore on her own.
He Qiaosheng later probed her about her interest in joining Zhaoyue as a program development director, and she admitted her consideration was at 80%. Elsewhere, Zhao Mengdi excitedly called He Qizhan with news that she had advanced to the second round of a competition, crediting his photos for her success. He Qizhan invited her to dinner at his home that evening, which delighted her.
He then called Tang Shuangli, extending the same invitation and mentioning Zhao Mengdi would be there, leading Tang Shuangli to playfully suspect a romantic announcement. Later, He Qizhan and Zhao Mengdi went grocery shopping by bicycle. When asked why he didn't drive, He Qizhan humorously confessed to having failed his driving test three times, after initially citing environmental and health benefits. Back at Zhaoyue, He Qiaosheng was annoyed to find Tang Shuangli was no longer in the building.
He criticized Ye Lin for not having accompanied Tang Shuangli, causing the usually obedient Ye Lin sadness. Tang Shuangli soon reappeared, stating she had simply taken a walk downstairs. He Qiaosheng insisted on driving her home, an offer she eventually accepted despite initially suggesting he seemed busy. Observing their departure, Ye Lin showed subtle signs of jealousy. At He Qizhan's home, Zhao Mengdi, admiring the decor, offered to help cook.
He Qizhan provided her with a loose-fitting T-shirt for comfort, which she found sweetly scented. He, in turn, thought she looked endearing in his shirt. During meal preparation, Zhao Mengdi accidentally cut her finger. He Qizhan, reacting swiftly, instinctively sucked on it to stop the bleeding, just as Tang Shuangli walked in.
Tang Shuangli's amused reaction prompted He Qizhan to quickly explain it as mere first aid, while Zhao Mengdi playfully exaggerated her lightheadedness and claimed to be anemic, implying a need for further attention. Lu Zhiyi arrived shortly after with a box of popular chubby cream puffs. Tang Shuangli, still holding onto her anger, questioned his presence, and he explained He Qizhan had invited him to assist with cooking.
He Qizhan then tried to persuade Tang Shuangli to offer her slippers to Lu Zhiyi, but Tang Shuangli, unyielding, instructed Lu Zhiyi to wear the small "lady's slippers" available, adding that she herself had endured recent discomfort. To avoid further confrontation, Lu Zhiyi awkwardly put on the ill-fitting slippers. Zhao Mengdi attempted to lighten the atmosphere by highlighting the delicious cream puffs Lu Zhiyi had brought, suggesting Tang Shuangli try one, indicating they were meant for her.
Tang Shuangli, however, refused, citing a diet. Seizing another opportunity, Zhao Mengdi feigned increased pain in her finger, requesting He Qizhan's renewed attention. This strategy successfully maneuvered Tang Shuangli into the kitchen to help Lu Zhiyi, especially after Zhao Mengdi reminded her of her promise to support her and He Qizhan's relationship by giving them alone time.
In the kitchen, He Qizhan advised Lu Zhiyi to keep the door closed to prevent cooking smells from spreading and to be mindful of Tang Shuangli's fingers. He then led Zhao Mengdi to his bedroom to discreetly watch the kitchen through a hidden camera, much to Zhao Mengdi's surprise and amusement, calling him a "pervert." Inside the kitchen, Lu Zhiyi tried to converse with a silent Tang Shuangli, remarking that her anger indicated her strong feelings for him.
He then clarified the incident at his home, explaining it was a deliberate trap set by Gu Ling, into which Tang Shuangli had innocently stumbled. Watching this, Zhao Mengdi commented on Lu Zhiyi's "Kabedon" move, playfully expressing envy. He Qizhan responded by demonstrating that such romantic gestures could happen anywhere, playfully performing one on her. Tang Shuangli's mood gradually softened.
She offered to help with simple tasks like chopping tomatoes and peeling aromatics, and, to Lu Zhiyi's surprise, humorously mentioned her unique "fish-slamming" technique, a skill taught by He Qizhan. Lu Zhiyi allowed her to help. Noticing her hair getting in the way, Lu Zhiyi searched for a hair clip. Finding none from He Qizhan or Zhao Mengdi, he located one himself and gently clipped it into Tang Shuangli's hair.
Witnessing this subtle gesture, Zhao Mengdi remarked on Lu Zhiyi's discreet but effective approach, prompting He Qizhan to mimic the hair-stroking gesture with Zhao Mengdi. Later, as a clear sign of their renewed understanding and reconciliation, Tang Shuangli exchanged her small, uncomfortable slippers for Lu Zhiyi's, resolving their earlier tension. Meanwhile, Ye Lin continued to pacify the waiting clients, including Jimmy, at a business dinner, explaining He Qiaosheng's traffic delay in a phone call. Jimmy lightheartedly teased He Qiaosheng for being such a devoted romantic. He Qiaosheng eventually arrived, offered his apologies, and joined the toast.
