Love At Night Episode 16 Recap
> Love At Night Recap
Lin Siyu arrived, feigning a serious injury to her leg and calling out for Mo Lingze’s help. Mo Lingze immediately deduced that Wang Ji had revealed his location. Wang Ji soon appeared, chastising Lin Siyu for insisting on following them despite her previous injury, and tried to take her away. As Mo Lingze handed his coat to a thinly dressed Xu Qingyou, Lin Siyu continued to call out to him, expressing her pain.
Later, at a barbecue gathering, Xu Qingyou accidentally burned her hand. Mo Lingze approached, seemingly concerned, but their exchange was brief and somewhat challenging. Lin Siyu also came over, expressing sympathy for Xu Qingyou's hand, and then sought advice on how to win Mo Lingze's heart. Xu Qingyou warned her to be careful, implying that some people, despite their gentle appearance, might toy with emotions. She specifically mentioned Mo Lingze's alleged "roster of girlfriends."
Lin Siyu quickly dismissed this, claiming the roster was just a joke concocted by Mo Lingze’s band, and she had even added to it herself. Meanwhile, Xu Wei accompanied Fang Qi to her class reunion. Fang Qi’s former classmate, Liang Yinyin, Qu Kai’s fiancée, attempted to provoke Fang Qi. She boasted about her engagement ring from Qu Kai and insinuated that Fang Qi had relationship issues, suggesting she change her temper to keep a man.
Xu Wei intervened, holding Fang Qi’s hand and introducing himself as her boyfriend. He declared that he was Fang Qi’s current and future husband, and would always cherish her. During a party game, Liang Yinyin tried to embarrass Fang Qi by asking about her past boyfriends and how many times she had visited an amusement park after her divorce.
Xu Wei confidently answered that Fang Qi had visited the amusement park eight times, always going to the haunted house when she was sad, and that he knew this even when he was abroad. He also publicly thanked Qu Kai for remembering Fang Qi’s favorite food, shrimp, which he now regularly cooks for her. This display of affection and loyalty from Xu Wei earned Fang Qi considerable respect from the other attendees.
Later, Fang Qi confessed to Xu Wei that she used to idolize Qu Kai, but now that she had grown, he no longer held any special allure for her. That night, after sharing drinks, Xu Wei confessed his feelings to Fang Qi, telling her he liked her. Fang Qi, seemingly tipsy, then playfully pounced to kiss him, complaining that he was 'too verbose' before falling asleep, leaving Xu Wei no time to react.
Later that evening, during a live-action role-playing game called "Peach Blossom Banquet," the script called for a long kiss, which made Xu Qingyou visibly uncomfortable. She excused herself, claiming to have emails to deal with. Mo Lingze followed her. He confronted her about her sudden nervousness, pointing out that she seemed to be reacting to the game's premise.
Mo Lingze clarified that there was no "roster of girlfriends" and that he certainly wouldn't engage in a game-like kiss with just anyone. He then confessed that he liked one person, someone who knew his feelings and clearly cared for him, getting sad, angry, jealous, and worried. He questioned what else could be considered love if not these feelings. Deeply moved, Xu Qingyou responded with a passionate kiss.
Later, as Xu Qingyou stood by the pool, Mo Lingze draped his jacket over her shoulders. He teased her about her earlier "jealous look," which she denied. He then clarified that he just wanted to set the record straight about the "roster" to avoid further unflattering nicknames. As they looked at the beautiful night sky, Mo Lingze offered her a special star, suggesting it wasn't a gesture meant for a teenage girl.
Xu Qingyou, realizing she could no longer deny her feelings, admitted she couldn’t hide from him, acknowledging the impulse that had taken over her. Meanwhile, Lin Siyu, using crutches, was seen frantically searching the hotel for Mo Lingze, wondering why no one was around. The next morning, Xu Qingyou woke up alone in the room, realizing she was naked. As she prepared to get up, Mo Lingze emerged from the bathroom.
He attempted to kiss her, but Xu Qingyou playfully stopped him. He then playfully accused her of trying to "renege on the debt," but Xu Qingyou insisted she would take responsibility. Their playful banter was interrupted by Lin Siyu pounding urgently on the door, even trying to get hotel staff to open it, fearing something had happened to Xu Qingyou.
Mo Lingze wanted to open the door and make their relationship public, but Xu Qingyou, flustered, resisted, explaining she didn't know how to explain their situation to Lin Siyu. Desperate, Xu Qingyou pulled Mo Lingze into a kiss, using it to push him into the wardrobe, to which he reluctantly agreed, warning her not to do it again. Once Lin Siyu entered, she searched the room, suspicious of Mo Lingze’s absence.
She interrogated Xu Qingyou about Mo Lingze’s whereabouts, expressing concern that he hadn’t returned all night and might have been seduced by a "siren." When Lin Siyu tried to call Mo Lingze, he hung up, further fueling her suspicions. It was only when Wang Ji called Lin Siyu to inform her that he had found Mo Lingze that she finally left. Mo Lingze emerged from the wardrobe and embraced Xu Qingyou, again suggesting they go public with their relationship.
Xu Qingyou, however, felt it was inappropriate, given Mo Lingze’s status as a prominent investor for Shangger and her role as a director at the same company. She argued that their public relationship would appear strange, and asked to keep it quiet for now. Mo Lingze acknowledged her concerns, asking her to think carefully about her decision. Separately, Xu Wei had prepared breakfast for Fang Qi, who woke up feeling hazy.
He explained that he wanted their "first day" together to be special, to create lasting memories, and promised to surprise her every year on that day and be good to her every day. Fang Qi, however, was confused, questioning what "first day" he was referring to, as she didn’t recall agreeing to be with him. Xu Wei reminded her of their conversation from the previous night. Fang Qi, recalling her inebriated state, dismissed her actions from the night before, stating it was merely a "loss of virtue after drinking."
