Time and Him are Just Right Episode 18 Recap
> Time and Him are Just Right Recap
On the university campus, Ji Junxing kept trying to contact Lin Xi but received no reply. Three months later, Ji Junxing was worrying when Xie Ang appeared and invited him to return to Chunhui High School to give a motivational speech to the repeaters. At the repeaters' pre-exam mobilization meeting, the teacher walked into the classroom and announced that they had invited Ji Junxing, an outstanding graduate from the Computer Science department of Jing University, to share his study experience.
Ji Junxing used his speech to encourage Lin Xi. Lin Xi looked at Ji Junxing, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and couldn't help but zone out. After the mobilization meeting ended, the two stood in the corridor, unsure of what to say for a moment. Ji Junxing asked Lin Xi why she hadn't contacted him during this time. Lin Xi said she was busy with reviewing and exams.
Ji Junxing told Lin Xi that Xie Ang and Jiang Yimian had broken up, and Gao Yunlang had gotten a girlfriend. Having not contacted each other for a long time, they were both unclear about each other's recent situation and felt a bit distant. Lin Xi said that even if they weren't together, they couldn't be on the same frequency. Just then, Qin Kai walked over and pulled Lin Xi away.
Ji Junxing told Lin Xi not to forget their promise. Three months later, after the college entrance examination ended, Lin Xi successfully got into Jing University and truly received the admission letter from Jinghua University. When the new semester started, a few members of the small group went to the school gate to welcome Lin Xi and even booked the best barbecue restaurant in Jingzhou to welcome her. Just then, Qin Kai appeared with his luggage.
It turned out that Qin Kai had been admitted to a sports university next to Jing University, so the group agreed to hang out together when they had time. In the barbecue restaurant, Lin Xi sighed that the East Gate small group was finally reunited, but Ji Junxing was late, and Gao Yunlang's girlfriend, Yue Yue, was also there. Yue Yue then talked about her experience pursuing Gao Yunlang.
Jiang Yimian teased that she was waiting for Lin Xi and Ji Junxing to show affection. Just then, Ji Junxing walked into the barbecue restaurant, but he heard Lin Xi's words of denial. He messaged Xie Ang saying he had rehearsal and left sadly. After the gathering ended, Jiang Yimian asked Lin Xi if the two were still in a cold war.
Lin Xi said that she and Ji Junxing had been separated for a year and felt that Ji Junxing was different towards Mingya. Jiang Yimian denied it and secretly pulled Lin Xi to the drama club to watch them rehearse. Unexpectedly, Ji Junxing and Mingya were rehearsing a love scene at this time. Lin Xi couldn't help but put herself into the scene and felt very sad watching the two embrace.
To her surprise, Ji Junxing then said he wasn't in the right state and arranged to meet Mingya at their usual spot. Lin Xi learned that this was not part of the script and could only leave the drama club feeling disappointed. Lin Xi thought that Ji Junxing had seen a bigger world and found someone he truly liked. She told Jiang Yimian that she planned to wish Ji Junxing well.
The next day, Xie Ang was handing out flyers for the social event. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yimian appeared and told him that she and Lin Xi wanted to sign up together. Xie Ang found Ji Junxing and told him that Lin Xi was participating in the social event. At four in the afternoon, a few members of the small group were setting up the venue for the social event.
Ji Junxing made drinks at the front counter while watching Lin Xi sitting by the window. Just then, a boy greeted Jiang Yimian, and the two chatted happily and even planned to add each other's contact information. Xie Ang quickly stated that Jiang Yimian was his girlfriend and pulled her away. The two argued in the kitchen. Xie Ang told Jiang Yimian that he was making money because he wanted to take her to a music festival.
When Jiang Yimian learned the truth, she hugged Xie Ang and apologized to him. The two embraced. Jiang Yimian told Lin Xi that Ji Junxing came to the social event because of her. Just then, Shen Pengyu, a talented student from the Finance department of Jing University, played the piano enchantingly. Yue Yue said that this person often flirts with female fans online and is very much a playboy.
After the performance, Shen Pengyu dedicated the piano piece to Lin Xi. Jiang Yimian left the window to find Xie Ang. Ji Junxing originally wanted to leave the front counter to find Lin Xi, but he was pulled aside by a girl who wanted to get to know him. Shen Pengyu came to the window and chatted with Lin Xi. Ji Junxing saw Lin Xi eating the cake he brought and was very angry.
Lin Xi said she wanted to drink milk tea and intended to leave, but Shen Pengyu held her back and mixed milk tea and an alcoholic drink called "Sunrise". Ji Junxing saw Lin Xi drink two cups and couldn't help but rush forward, drink the rest of the drink, and hug the drunk Lin Xi. Seeing this situation, Shen Pengyu could only leave.
On the pedestrian bridge, Ji Junxing was originally carrying Lin Xi on his back, but because she kept struggling, he had to put her down. Lin Xi told him the story of the fox and the rabbit, implying that she had finally met Ji Junxing but found that he had changed. Ji Junxing couldn't help but talk about the long, agonizing wait he had experienced over the past year, stating that he had always wanted to be with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi took off the lucky charm necklace Ji Junxing had given her and returned it to him, telling Ji Junxing that she no longer planned to like him. The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with tears.
