Love O2O Episode 4 Recap
> Love O2O Recap
Cao Guang approached Weiwei to apologize for his previous actions, stating he had already deleted the post he made about her. Weiwei accepted his apology, and when Cao Guang remarked that she was not what he had imagined, she responded that one should not judge a person solely based on assumptions. Cao Guang then inquired about Xiao Yang's legs. Weiwei explained that Xiao Yang had lost his father and the ability to walk in a car accident.
Cao Guang questioned the appropriateness of teaching a child like Xiao Yang to play games, but Weiwei clarified that it was Xiao Yang who taught her. She admitted she used to be prejudiced against games, thinking they were a waste of time. However, when Xiao Yang's mother sought her help to change his gaming habits, Weiwei decided to understand games first.
This experience changed her perspective, leading her to believe that games are a universe in themselves, neither inherently good nor bad. For individuals like Xiao Yang who cannot venture outside, games offer a way to experience new sights and connect with others. Weiwei shared that her only influence on Xiao Yang was shifting his interest towards game development, and inspired by him, her own goal was now to become a game designer.
Meanwhile, Zhao Erxi was in their dorm, diligently playing "A Chinese Ghost Story" to prepare for an upcoming interview. She explained to Weiwei that she had to quickly learn the game to cover up a lie she told during her previous interview, fearing exposure if she got the job and proved clueless. Erxi decided to play on a new server called "Godly Sister," believing it would be easier for a newbie like her to catch up with other beginners.
Weiwei, checking the game's official website for news on the Couple PK Competition, stumbled upon a "Storyline Video Competition." She clicked on a video featuring Zhenshui Wuxiang. The video depicted a clichéd hero-saving-beauty scenario, but then a red-clad female character named "Luweiweiwei" appeared, pursuing Zhenshui Wuxiang with exaggerated crying and distress, making a spectacle of herself. Recognizing the distorted portrayal of her own game ID, "Luwei Weiwei," Weiwei was incensed.
She immediately logged into the game and sent Zhenshui Wuxiang a message, expressing her disgust at his attempt to defame her through the video. Still fuming, she slammed her laptop shut and went to sleep. In their dorm, Xiao Nai’s roommates, Yu Banshan and others, were already aware of Zhenshui Wuxiang’s video, which they angrily described as "making fun of our Third Sister-in-Law."
They complained about Zhenshui’s narcissism and his inferior looks compared to Xiao Nai, speculating that Zhenshui, an heir from a rich family, had ulterior motives. When one of them mentioned how a server mate had claimed Weiwei was dumped by Zhenshui Wuxiang, they were infuriated. His roommates suggested that Xiao Nai hack the offending post.
However, Xiao Nai calmly instructed them to leave the post alone, stating that he would resolve the issue in a civilized manner, planning to wait for Zhenshui Wuxiang to come online the next day. The following morning, Zhao Erxi rushed to class late after breakfast, only to find Cao Guang occupying the seat she had reserved. When he ignored her pleas to move, Erxi’s exasperation escalated into a shout that drew the attention of the entire classroom and the professor.
She eventually squeezed into another seat, only for it to prove broken, causing her to awkwardly slide around. Muttering about her lousy luck and running into a jerk, Erxi’s frustration boiled over when Cao Guang continued to taunt her. She finally snapped and kicked him in the chest, prompting the professor to intervene. When Weiwei logged into the game, she was immediately informed about a duel challenge Yixiao Naihe had sent to Zhenshui Wuxiang.
Rushing to the dueling arena, she found Yixiao Naihe calmly playing his zither, awaiting Zhenshui Wuxiang's arrival. Although Zhenshui Wuxiang was online, he seemed to be deliberately avoiding the challenge. Weiwei’s friends explained that the duel was a result of Zhenshui Wuxiang’s defamatory video. They noted that Yixiao Naihe's challenge was intentionally provocative, offering Zhenshui two rounds and declaring him the winner if he could win just one, while Yixiao Naihe would even voluntarily remove two divine-grade equipment items.
They scoffed, saying Zhenshui wouldn't be a man if he refused. Eventually, Zhenshui Wuxiang appeared with his Xiaoyu clan members. Despite Zhenshui Wuxiang's best efforts, Yixiao Naihe effortlessly defeated him. Zhenshui Wuxiang conceded defeat, agreeing to delete the video. He stated that the two levels he lost would serve as compensation for Weiwei, thus settling their past grievances.
After the crowd dispersed, Yixiao Naihe explained to Weiwei that while she should have handled the matter herself, too many people were watching, and he preferred to resolve it quickly. Weiwei couldn’t help but feel a trace of sweetness in her heart, realizing that Yixiao Naihe was subtly explaining his actions to her. Later, while jogging, Weiwei encountered Cao Guang, who once again apologized for the photo incident and offered to treat her to a meal.
Weiwei politely declined, stating that clearing things up was enough and he should simply avoid similar actions in the future. Cao Guang awkwardly tried to express his happiness at meeting her and then asked if she had a boyfriend. Weiwei responded that she did not, nor did she plan to get one. Back in the dorm, Zhao Erxi vehemently warned Weiwei against Cao Guang, citing his questionable integrity based on the photo incident and his recent behavior in class.
She declared that despite his good looks and talent, second only to Xiao Nai at their university, she disliked him and was sure Weiwei would too. Weiwei confirmed she didn't like Cao Guang. Erxi then light-heartedly joked that if Weiwei couldn't find anyone suitable, she would have to marry Master Xiao Nai. Weiwei, observing Xiao Nai coolly walking past a girl attempting to give him a love letter, had an idea.
She decided to use Xiao Nai's name to politely but firmly reject Cao Guang. Weiwei met Cao Guang in a secluded campus spot and told him she understood his feelings but felt they weren't compatible. When he insisted on pursuing her, she revealed she already had someone in mind—someone from the Computer Science Department, as exceptional as Xiao Nai, with whom she could share a common language.
Unbeknownst to Weiwei, Nana, who was hiding nearby, overheard the conversation and quickly rushed to inform Meng Yiran that Weiwei also harbored feelings for Xiao Nai. Undeterred by Weiwei's rejection, Cao Guang's roommates encouraged him to pursue Weiwei by adapting to her interests. Recognizing Weiwei's passion for games, Cao Guang decided to find out her game ID. Later, at the basketball court, Cao Guang spotted Xiao Nai. He walked up to Xiao Nai and challenged him to a game. Xiao Nai, with a calm demeanor, accepted the challenge.
