Love Under the Full Moon Episode 10 Recap
> Love Under the Full Moon Recap
After Lei Chuxia gave her permission, Jin Xiaorui revealed everything to Yuan Yuan. Yuan Yuan expressed immense relief that Lei Chuxia was back, commenting that Lei Chuxia is currently twenty-two years old, while Yuan Yuan herself is thirty-two. Yuan Yuan reassured Lei Chuxia that age is not important; what matters is her return, and Yuan Yuan promised to protect her.
She reminisced about Lei Chuxia caring for her like an older sister in the past, and now it's her turn to take care of Lei Chuxia, adding that she wouldn't complain about Lei Chuxia being younger. Concerned for Lei Chuxia's well-being after her fainting spell, Yuan Yuan invited Lei Chuxia to stay at her place for the night, offering to take care of her.
When Yuan Yuan questioned why Lei Chuxia looked at Xu Xiaodong, Lei Chuxia explained that having lost her wristband, she could not be too far from Xu Xiaodong, as she would always return to his side regardless of distance. Understanding this, Yuan Yuan extended the invitation to Xu Xiaodong as well, suggesting he could sleep on the sofa. Xu Xiaodong readily agreed.
Jin Xiaorui then eagerly announced his intention to join them, to which Yuan Yuan playfully retorted that it had nothing to do with him. Upon arriving at Yuan Yuan's place, Jin Xiaorui expressed surprise that she lives in a warehouse. Yuan Yuan explained that the rent is low, and she needs to save money to support her shop. Jin Xiaorui jokingly offered for her to move in with him rent-free, which she immediately rejected.
Yuan Yuan acknowledged her place is small but proudly showcased her tasteful decorations, emphasizing the importance of treating oneself well despite life's difficulties. Jin Xiaorui commented it didn't look "decent," to which Yuan Yuan retorted he was the indecent one for making himself at home. Yuan Yuan then showed Lei Chuxia the bedroom, excitedly stating they would sleep together and Lei Chuxia was "hers."
She told Xu Xiaodong he could sleep on the sofa, which he confirmed was fine regarding the distance constraint with Lei Chuxia. Jin Xiaorui then asked where he should sleep, and Yuan Yuan pointed to the ample space on the floor for him to choose. Inside the bedroom, Yuan Yuan proudly showed Lei Chuxia her tastefully decorated room, including a small balcony, explaining how she personally set everything up to make her life better.
They shared hopes of earning more money to live in a bigger, more stylish home, vowing to work hard together. Later, Yuan Yuan asked Lei Chuxia why she wasn't sleeping, wondering if she was still shaken by the day's events. Lei Chuxia admitted she was more concerned about having scared the customers at the shop. Yuan Yuan dismissed this, saying people love gossip, especially big news.
She then pointed out how visibly anxious Xu Xiaodong was when he carried Lei Chuxia, confirming her "sixth sense" that Xu Xiaodong definitely liked her. Yuan Yuan pressed Lei Chuxia on whether she liked him back. Lei Chuxia, still processing her recent experiences, deflected, saying she needed to figure out how to live first. Yuan Yuan, undeterred, declared Xu Xiaodong her top choice and would vote for him with both hands and feet.
She then reminded Lei Chuxia that Xu Xiaodong was just outside, so she should stop talking and sleep. Lei Chuxia eventually agreed. In the living room, Jin Xiaorui, feeling happy in Yuan Yuan's home, talked to Xu Xiaodong about his feelings for Yuan Yuan, noting their compatibility despite her being older and how she reciprocated his romantic gestures. He asked Xu Xiaodong for his opinion, urging his "best friend" to respond.
Jin Xiaorui suggested they should discuss their romantic prospects, as the girls might be having their own "pillow talk" session. He then pondered if he should be even more direct with Yuan Yuan, to which Xu Xiaodong humorously warned that he might not even get to sleep on the sofa if he did.
Shifting the conversation to Xu Xiaodong, Jin Xiaorui pressed him about Lei Chuxia, saying he saw them return together and strongly believed they had feelings for each other. He encouraged Xu Xiaodong, as a man, to confess. Xu Xiaodong, however, believed it was not the right time, especially with Lei Chuxia's recent serious health issue. He quoted an online saying that "companionship is the most enduring confession" and decided to focus on accompanying her for now.
Jin Xiaorui agreed, resolving to spend more time with Yuan Yuan too, before Xu Xiaodong dismissed him to sleep. After urging Jin Xiaorui to sleep, Xu Xiaodong noticed Lei Chuxia awake on the balcony. He joined her with some beer, asking if she also couldn't sleep and if she wanted to drink together. He commented on the full moon, recalling that the moon was also full on the day she appeared, and jokingly asked if she was scared then.
Lei Chuxia confided in Xu Xiaodong, revealing that after she fainted, she saw a series of images in her mind: herself running, someone chasing her, falling off a cliff, being held onto, only for the person to let go and watch her fall. She was uncertain if these were memories or illusions but felt the situation was complicated.
Lei Chuxia wondered if her arrival here was directly linked to falling off that cliff, joking about the coincidence of landing on him and recalling the pain of the slap she gave him that day. When she expressed her inability to sleep, Xu Xiaodong offered a solution. He then began to gently read out code, a method his father used to help him sleep as a child.
While reading, he inwardly vowed to stay by Lei Chuxia's side, regardless of what her memories mean, affirming it as his way of showing affection, with the moon as his witness. The next day, Yuan Yuan advised Lei Chuxia to rest at her place for a couple of days and not worry about the shop.
Lei Chuxia, however, decided to return to Xu Xiaodong's home, explaining that his place was the first place she stayed after arriving, and she felt secure there. Yuan Yuan agreed, acknowledging Xu Xiaodong as a reliable and trustworthy person, but urged Lei Chuxia to inform her immediately if anything happened. Meanwhile, Wei Xuanhe was still in a late-night company meeting regarding Cyber Tech's "Family First app," which was plagued with continuous issues.
Investors expressed their deep dissatisfaction and pressured him to address the problems, with one suggesting to scrap the app entirely for capital reasons. Wei Xuanhe argued that the app was crucial for Cyber Tech and they could overcome temporary difficulties, but investors warned that if the app failed to launch by the deadline, they would no longer invest in him.
Wei Xuanhe's father called, criticizing him for his stagnant career and inability to meet expectations, suggesting he pack up and come home. Despite initially hesitating, with a flashback to Lei Chuxia's warning from ten years ago to not compromise himself—but now Lei Chuxia was no longer there to stop him—Wei Xuanhe signed a partnership agreement with Zhao Yaoyang, indicating he had hardened his heart. Qin Yue arrived, observing his bad mood, but declared she wouldn't leave.
Wei Xuanhe told her he was not in the mood for guests and even if she stayed, he wouldn't develop feelings for her, pointing out that many people approached him for personal gain. He asked her what she wanted. Qin Yue boldly stated she wanted "everything": a glamorous life, the title of Mrs. Wei, and most importantly, Wei Xuanhe himself. He warned her it wouldn't be easy and that his heart wasn't good.
Qin Yue responded that he was never perfect in her eyes; she accepted all his good and bad qualities. She proclaimed that anything belonging to Wei Xuanhe would eventually be Qin Yue's. If she couldn't win his heart, she would start by getting the person, confident that his heart would eventually be hers. Wei Xuanhe cautioned her against being too greedy, but Qin Yue unreservedly embraced her ambition, stating, "I am exactly that greedy," which seemed to touch him.
Jin Xiaorui tried to give Xu Xiaodong "Xiao Rui's Love Notes" to help him confess to Lei Chuxia, but Xu Xiaodong rejected them, instead asking Jin Xiaorui to schedule an appointment with Dr. Tian Yu for Lei Chuxia. Xu Xiaodong took Lei Chuxia to see Dr. Tian Yu for psychological counseling.
During the session, Dr. Tian Yu hypnotized Lei Chuxia and confirmed that the scenes she saw were not illusions but likely real memories, as the hypnotic recall aligned with Lei Chuxia's descriptions. Dr. Tian Yu explained that the "running, falling, being chased" elements indicated extreme insecurity. Lei Chuxia's resistance and nervousness towards this memory, allowing her to see only fragmented scenes, further suggested it was a real memory.
Dr. Tian Yu stated that it was highly possible the man who let go of Lei Chuxia, causing her to fall off the cliff, was real, although it could also be a manifestation of extreme fear. She suggested more memories were needed for a conclusive diagnosis. Lei Chuxia decided she must investigate what truly happened, and Xu Xiaodong promised to help her.
After several restless nights, Xu Xiaodong suggested Lei Chuxia return to her room to sleep comfortably, but she preferred to rest where she was, admitting she was afraid to sleep. Later, Lei Chuxia tried to go out for breakfast to buy a sugar pancake but instantly teleported back to Xu Xiaodong. He reminded her that her wristband was with Professor Chen, and they could not be too far apart.
Lei Chuxia, having seen only one sugar pancake left, insisted on going to get it. To manage their distance, Xu Xiaodong used a dog leash brought by Turing. On their way back, they encountered neighborhood aunties who openly joked about Lei Chuxia "leashing" her boyfriend, remarking that a woman should capture a man's heart instead of tying him with a physical rope. Lei Chuxia brushed off the comments, claiming young people prefer things this way.
Dr. Tian Yu explained that Lei Chuxia's dreams were a manifestation of her strong desire to recover her memories. She suggested that interacting with familiar people, places, and objects could significantly aid her memory recovery. Following this advice, Lei Chuxia and Xu Xiaodong returned to the Lei family home, where Xu Xiaodong found an old video recorder. They watched a video of Lei Chuxia as a child, but it stopped midway.
A technician explained that the battery slot was likely broken, but the part was long out of production and extremely hard to find. Despite the difficulty, the technician offered to help them look, and Xu Xiaodong and Lei Chuxia also agreed to search. Xu Xiaodong, under his game alias "Winter," posted an announcement in "Battle of the Saints," requesting players to find parts for the old DV.
Soon after, numerous packages containing parts and manuals arrived at Summer Time, overwhelming Yuan Yuan and Jin Xiaorui. Yuan Yuan noticed that many senders were "Battle of the Saints" players. Lei Chuxia expressed surprise because she never told Winter about needing to fix her video recorder. Yuan Yuan initially thought Jin Xiaorui told Winter, but Lei Chuxia clarified she didn't tell him either.
Yuan Yuan then pointed out that every time Lei Chuxia needed help, Winter appeared, suggesting he was someone close to them. As only Xu Xiaodong and Jin Xiaorui were always around, Lei Chuxia began to suspect Xu Xiaodong. After finding the correct battery slot, the video was restored. It showed a young Lei Chuxia at an amusement park with her parents. However, watching the video didn't trigger any memories.
She credited Winter for making it possible but again wondered how he knew. Xu Xiaodong lied, explaining that the appliance store owner, a "Battle of the Saints" player, encountered Winter in the game and told him about the video recorder. Lei Chuxia left a message in the game thanking Winter. Yuan Yuan playfully suggested that Winter might want a virtual relationship with Lei Chuxia. Yuan Yuan argued that Winter's consistent help could only mean he liked her.
Lei Chuxia insisted it was just friendly help. Later, Xu Xiaodong discreetly took Jin Xiaorui's phone to view Lei Chuxia's message, which expressed a desire to thank Winter in person. Yuan Yuan caught Xu Xiaodong and, seeing him on the phone, confronted Jin Xiaorui. Misinterpreting Jin Xiaorui's earlier defense of Winter as a sign that he was Winter and secretly liked Lei Chuxia, Yuan Yuan called him a liar and stormed off.
Jin Xiaorui was devastated, and Xu Xiaodong criticized him, stating that revealing his identity to Lei Chuxia would put her in danger. Desperate, Jin Xiaorui begged Xu Xiaodong to confess to being Winter to appease Yuan Yuan. Xu Xiaodong reluctantly agreed. Xu Xiaodong confessed to Yuan Yuan that he was the real Winter, explaining he had to hide his identity for special reasons.
He asked her not to tell Lei Chuxia yet, promising to reveal it himself when his position in Lei Chuxia's heart surpassed Winter's. Yuan Yuan agreed to keep the secret. She then confronted Jin Xiaorui, who tried to reconcile. She asked him about the car and watch he flaunted; Jin Xiaorui admitted they belonged to Xu Xiaodong, clarifying he was just a regular financial worker. She demanded to know why he pretended to be rich.
He confessed that he fell in love with her at first sight and worried she'd dislike his youth, believing that if he appeared wealthy, she wouldn't reject him. Yuan Yuan was furious, accusing him of seeing her as a materialistic woman. She immediately "broke up" with him, leaving Jin Xiaorui bewildered about when they were even officially together. He then desperately asked Xu Xiaodong to help him win her back.
