Lie to Love Episode 32 (Ending) Recap
> Lie to Love Recap
As anticipated by Li Zeliang, Dai Ziang's desperation led him to call a staff meeting to stabilize the company, setting the stage for Li Zeliang's final strike. During the meeting, Xie Minghao addressed the employees, urging unity and vowing to sue those spreading rumors. Suddenly, Li Zeliang appeared, surprising Xie Minghao, who quickly tried to end the meeting. Li Zeliang stopped him, and Shen Xieqing emerged to confront Xie Minghao publicly.
Feigning surprise, Xie Minghao claimed he had been searching for her. However, Shen Xieqing exposed his deceptions: he had tricked her into transferring Zhiwei's assets and made her believe she was pregnant, which drove her father to take the blame and commit suicide. She also revealed that after she regained consciousness, he had held her captive and faked her suicide attempt.
She disclosed that ever since discovering he was the "K of Spades" two years prior, she had been secretly gathering evidence. As a lawyer, he knew the gravity of his crimes, and she announced she had already alerted the police. When Xie Minghao tried to discredit her as a mental patient, she produced a medical certificate proving her sanity.
She then presented damning evidence: bank records showing money flowing into his account and a card in her name, recordings of him instigating the embezzlement, and screenshots of messages he, as the "K of Spades," sent to Huo Jian to coerce him. When questioned about his lack of remorse, Xie Minghao blamed her for all his misfortunes, particularly for Shen Zhihong's disapproval of his pursuit of Su Xieyi. Li Zeliang intervened, advising Xie Minghao to surrender.
Cornered, Xie Minghao grabbed Su Xieyi, holding a pen to her neck as a hostage and warning everyone to stay back. He dragged her to the rooftop, with Li Zeliang in close pursuit. On the roof, a manic Xie Minghao confronted Li Zeliang, demanding to know why he was never truly seen or valued despite his lifelong struggle for recognition.
Li Zeliang expressed sympathy for his past but pointed out that his desire for Su Xieyi was not love, but another attempt to validate his success. In a final, twisted act, Xie Minghao demanded Li Zeliang jump from the building in a "life for a life" exchange for Su Xieyi. Without hesitation, Li Zeliang agreed. Seeing his intent, Su Xieyi bit Xie Minghao's hand, breaking free and rushing to shield Li Zeliang.
Defeated, Xie Minghao declared he had lost and that this was the "best ending" before leaping from the building. However, police had already positioned an air cushion below, and he was apprehended. Meanwhile, Dai Ziang was also arrested on suspicion of inciting arson and illegal competition. A month later, with the Lantian Bay project succeeding, Li Zeliang was lauded by shareholders. He thanked Ms. Shi, who credited Su Xieyi for Ocean's recovery, noting their deep love.
Ms. Shi admitted her past misconceptions about Su Xieyi and acknowledged she was perfect for him. Su Xieyi then arrived to take Li Zeliang, who was recovering from surgery, to a follow-up appointment. Later, as she pushed him in a wheelchair, he voiced his fears about being a burden due to his leg's uncertain recovery.
Su Xieyi reassured him, stating that what mattered was not what they did, but that they were now an "us," suggesting alternative activities for every limitation. Touched, Li Zeliang shared that Xie Minghao had been sentenced to over ten years for his multiple crimes. He also gave her the good news that her application to visit Shen Xieqing had been approved. The next day, Su Xieyi visited Shen Xieqing at a detention center.
Shen Xieqing felt a profound sense of ease and expressed her gratitude for her sister. She admitted her guilt towards Su Xieyi and their father was what finally brought her to her senses. Su Xieyi reassured her that their father would understand her courage in facing her mistakes and that a warm family reunion awaited her return. Shen Xieqing wished Su Xieyi happiness and confirmed her relationship with Xie Minghao was in the past.
Before leaving, she eagerly asked about their wedding, requesting many photos since she couldn't attend. Li Zeliang then surprised Su Xieyi with a meticulously planned proposal. A treasure hunt with clues based on their shared memories—"Encounter beneath the stars," "Reunion after breaking up," and the "hospital embrace"—led her to a plaza. As she arrived, the area lit up, and Li Zeliang appeared. He knelt and delivered a heartfelt proposal, asking her to marry him.
Surrounded by cheering friends, a tearful Su Xieyi joyfully accepted. The next morning, they watched the sunrise. Li Zeliang presented her with a custom seal engraved "Liang Yan, Xie Yi," declaring that from now on, he was hers forever. As Su Xieyi marveled that the world seemed to be theirs, Li Zeliang corrected her, saying he already possessed the world because she was his entire world. Later, they arrived at the Marriage Registry.
After some playful banter about a forgotten qipao and a mix-up with the counters, they happily received their marriage certificate. Su Xieyi then jokingly complained that her photo was unflattering and insisted they immediately go to a bridal store to take new ones where she could be in charge of the styling.
