Love O2O Episode 20 Recap
> Love O2O Recap
While Weiwei was helping Erxi improve her forging skills in the game, Erxi was at Cao Guang's home, working for him by taking care of his cat, Coffee, as a way to pay off her debt. During a phone call with Weiwei, Erxi mentioned that Weiwei was going to have dinner with Xiao Nai that evening. Overhearing this, Cao Guang became infuriated, having previously misunderstood Weiwei's intentions in the game.
His anger boiled over, and he took it out on Erxi. As Erxi was about to leave, he insisted she clean Coffee's litter box. Just as Erxi, suppressing her disgust, finished cleaning it, Coffee immediately soiled it again. Frustrated, Erxi tapped Coffee's head to scold him, and the cat bit her finger. Cao Guang rushed out of his study upon hearing Erxi's scream. Seeing her bleeding finger, he immediately wanted to take her to the hospital for a rabies shot.
However, Erxi, afraid of needles and convinced the probability of contracting rabies was low, proposed that skipping the shot could offset her debt. Cao Guang, exasperated by her stubbornness, insisted on taking her to the hospital. Despite him paying for the registration and medicine, Erxi vehemently refused the injection. Unable to convince her, Cao Guang took Erxi's phone and called Weiwei for help, explaining that Erxi had been bitten and wouldn't get the shot.
Weiwei, despite feeling unwell herself, asked for the hospital's name and promised to be there quickly. At the hospital, Weiwei tried to persuade Erxi to get the shot, but Erxi stubbornly refused. Unexpectedly, Weiwei herself fainted due to a cold and fever. Fortunately, Xiao Nai, who had noticed Weiwei's voice sounding unwell on the phone earlier, arrived at the hospital. He immediately noticed Weiwei had a high fever of 39 degrees and gently carried her back to her apartment.
There, Weiwei received his meticulous care, which, to her, sounded as sweet as heavenly music, despite his gentle commands to drink water, take medicine, and sleep. Weiwei woke up later to find Xiao Nai still watching over her from the living room. He explained that he had stayed, concerned her fever might return during the night, and only truly relaxed after seeing her fever had subsided.
With a doting tone, Xiao Nai teasingly told her he had decided to keep her by his side in the future, as she enjoyed being his follower in the game, so she should continue to follow him. Weiwei timidly mentioned that Ah Shuang had assigned her a task that was still unfinished. Xiao Nai pulled her into his embrace, telling her not to worry about Ah Shuang because he felt bad for her.
At a team meeting, Xiao Nai announced that he had spoken with Feng Teng, and the press conference for their game was moved up to the end of September. He noted that while their game demo was largely complete after a month of accelerated development, some details, particularly the fluidity and transitions of fighting movements, still needed optimization. Hao Mei believed these minor flaws wouldn't hinder their success in securing the project, but KO quietly volunteered to handle the optimization.
Xiao Nai then feigned seeking Ah Shuang's opinion, stating he was short-staffed and wished to borrow some of Ah Shuang's team members. Later, Weiwei transferred her pocket money to Erxi, instructing her to immediately repay Cao Guang, thus making Weiwei Erxi's primary creditor. She urged Erxi to earn money quickly, as Weiwei herself only had ¥600 left for her own living expenses.
At the General Affairs department, Erxi's colleagues noticed her bandaged hand and showered her with concern, offering medicinal wine and advice about rabies shots. Overwhelmed by their excessive attention, Erxi quickly tried to escape and hurried off. Meanwhile, Nana spotted Erxi and expressed her desire to teach her a lesson. Yiran sternly warned Nana against bullying others using her name, especially since Yiran herself had given up on Xiao Nai. Erxi went to Cao Guang's apartment to return the money.
She proudly declared it was her last visit as his debtor, handing him the money Weiwei had sent. She also clarified that while it was her last visit as a debtor, she would continue to care for Coffee for free once he left the country, driven by her affection for the cat. During her lunch break, Xiao Nai invited Weiwei to his office to show her the desktop game demo.
Weiwei immediately became engrossed, deciding to explore the game world on her own. In the market, she saw a flattering vendor selling hair accessories and commented that he resembled Yugong (Yu Banshan). Xiao Nai confirmed that Yugong was indeed the prototype for that character. Weiwei praised the game, finding it unique, vibrant, and with exciting combat.
She became especially interested when she learned about a new life system, completely separate from the combat system, and excited by the vast map of the desktop game. Back at Xiao Nai's apartment, Weiwei suggested improvements to the new game's family system, such as interactions between different families. Xiao Nai, engrossed in playing the guqin, asked Weiwei how the music he was playing was. Annoyed that he hadn't been listening to her, Weiwei bit his hand.
Xiao Nai then playfully retaliated, pinning her down. Weiwei, surprised by his confidence, asked if it was truly his first relationship, noting his "seasoned" behavior. Xiao Nai confirmed it was, claiming he "learned it on his own" after meeting her.
