> Master Devil Do Not Kiss Me 2 Recap
Meng Xiaonan asked Feng Shao for help in forming a band for Jiang Chenchuan, hoping to fulfill Jiang's dream. Initially pretending ignorance about finding talented musicians, Feng Shao revealed he only played guitar to impress An Chuxia. Meng Xiaonan's persistence led Feng Shao to quickly realize her feelings for Jiang Chenchuan, causing her to blush and flee, not before Feng Shao playfully offered her a book on pursuing boys.
Meanwhile, on the school rooftop, Han Qilu and Ling Hanyu discussed Jiang Chenchuan's absence from a recent competition, attributing it to his distress over discovering his relation to An Chuxia. Ling Hanyu joked about the irony, earning a scolding from Han Qilu. Ling Hanyu playfully blamed Han Qilu for teaching Jiang Chenchuan how to pursue girls. Han Qilu then referenced a past conversation, recalling Ling Hanyu's advice against letting selfish desires hinder others' dreams.
Han Qilu affirmed his understanding and support for An Chuxia's aspirations, acknowledging her talent. Ling Hanyu then questioned Han Qilu's future plans if An Chuxia studied in France. Han Qilu revealed his intention to study economics and take over his family's company, surprising Ling Hanyu given his past aversion. Han Qilu explained that a recent family crisis made him realize the need to shoulder responsibility, especially with his father, Han Liuhai's declining health.
He chose to abandon his astronomy ambitions and make "reality his dream." Ling Hanyu noted Han Qilu's significant change from self-centeredness to a desire for integration into the world and wondered who influenced this transformation. An Chuxia and Mo Xinwei, along with other contestants, arrived at a hotel for a closed competition. An organizer explained the rules, provided materials, and collected everyone's cell phones to ensure fairness.
Alone, An Chuxia examined the sewing materials, silently vowing not to disappoint her mother. At home, Han Qilu found his parents, Han Liuhai and Jiang Yuanyuan, displaying affection. Han Liuhai stopped Han Qilu from leaving and discussed his future plans. Han Liuhai acknowledged Han Qilu's application to study economics, but admitted that his hospital stay led him to question his past desire to mold Han Qilu into a business elite.
He encouraged Han Qilu to pursue his passion for astronomy while young. To Han Liuhai's surprise, Han Qilu stated that studying economics was his own genuine choice, admitting past selfishness and apologizing to his father. Han Liuhai and Jiang Yuanyuan were deeply moved by Han Qilu's sincerity, with Jiang Yuanyuan crediting An Chuxia for his newfound maturity. Jiang He reflected on past mistakes, silently apologizing to An Chuxia's deceased mother, Shu Ya.
He vowed to provide An Chuxia with the best care and education. Later, Jiang He called Jiang Chenchuan to his office. Anticipating a difficult conversation, Jiang Chenchuan tried to avoid it, but Jiang He insisted. Jiang He expressed regret for past failures in family matters, apologizing for hurting Jiang Chenchuan, Mo Xinwei, and An Chuxia. He encouraged Jiang Chenchuan to overcome his past, emphasizing the importance of moving forward despite life's challenges.
Jiang He requested Jiang Chenchuan accompany him to the final design competition to help overcome his emotional hurdles. Jiang Chenchuan initially refused, but Jiang He urged him to reconsider, stating he didn't want this to become a lasting obstacle. Three days later, on the day of the final competition, An Chuxia completed her design and was called to the stage. Xiang Mankui received a call from Wan Zi warning of a plot to frame An Chuxia.
Before reacting, a masked man knocked Xiang Mankui unconscious and abducted her. Xiang Mankui's absence was noted as the competition neared. News then spread of Xiang Mankui's new online design, "Fruit of Dreams." Jiang He, sensing something was wrong, instructed his staff to investigate, while Han Qilu noted the design's uncharacteristic style. Jiang Chenchuan arrived, stating he was only there to observe. After receiving a message from Xiang Mankui claiming illness, the organizers decided to proceed without her.
Xiang Mankui awoke in a dilapidated warehouse, crying for help, and overheard her captors discussing their "lady" and their decision to bring her to the school campus to contain the situation. Mo Xinwei then presented her design. Han Qilu and Ling Hanyu were impressed by her dedication and skill. In an emotional presentation, Mo Xinwei addressed the recent family scandal, acknowledging her father's past mistakes but fiercely vowing to fight anyone who threatened her family.
Finally, An Chuxia presented her design. The audience and judges were shocked to discover its identical nature to Xiang Mankui's recently released "Fruit of Dreams." A judge questioned An Chuxia about the design's originality, which she confirmed, only to be confronted with the devastating similarity, leaving her stunned.
