Meeting You Loving You Episode 2 Recap
> Meeting You Loving You Recap
Song Qingchun adamantly rejected Su Zhinian's offer and stormed out of his house. As she opened the door, she nearly collided with Su Zhinian's close friend and doctor, Yan Yuan. Yan Yuan, aware that Song Qingchun was Su Zhinian's first love, noted that Su Zhinian's physical data had become unstable since Song Menghua's incident.
He warned Su Zhinian that his brain was overly active while his muscle activity declined, suggesting it might be linked to a car accident he had at three years old, causing him to be different from others. Yan Yuan also cautioned that using his mind power resulted in a one-to-one backfire, which was harmful to his body.
He urged Su Zhinian to control his desire to play the hero, especially when it came to Song Qingchun, whom he labeled Su Zhinian's "black hole of accidents." Su Zhinian explained that his injury from the biker gang was due to Song Qingchun holding his hand, preventing him from using his superpower. He clarified that any physical contact with her made his superpower useless, rendering him unable to control anyone.
Yan Yuan, concerned, decided to stay the night and asked Su Zhinian's assistant for bedding. The assistant, who harbored a crush on Yan Yuan, blushed as she went to retrieve them. Yan Yuan, noticing her heavy makeup, remarked that it didn't suit her. Su Zhinian then asked his assistant to check surveillance footage near Xinhua Road, suspecting the biker incident was not accidental.
During their conversation, Yan Yuan chided Su Zhinian for being assertive with him but cowardly around Song Qingchun, noting her anger despite Su Zhinian saving her. Su Zhinian expressed his unease about recent events, including the biker robbery. He then announced his intention to transfer Song Menghua to Yan Yuan's hospital for treatment, trusting Yan Yuan, who he considered one of Jiangli's best neurologists.
Su Zhinian revealed that he could not use Geiger Capital to invest in Huateng Land due to the current situation, despite the company's good prospects if its strategic transformation plan moved forward. He planned to personally invest using another company under his name. Yan Yuan was shocked to learn Su Zhinian had sold off his previous investments and overseas properties to fund this, calling him crazy and speculating his brain had turned into a "love brain."
Su Zhinian explained that he felt indebted to Song Menghua, who, knowing his financial struggles, had subtly supported his education and overseas studies by hiring him as Song Qingchun's tutor, protecting his pride. Su Zhinian then asked Yan Yuan to invest his personal savings, promising generous returns. Yan Yuan reluctantly agreed, jokingly warning Su Zhinian to work hard and repay his "investor," still annoyed by Su Zhinian's disregard for his own well-being and money.
Meanwhile, a mysterious boss, having failed to retrieve an item, called an operative, giving him one last chance and asserting that all secrets were hidden in the doll Song Menghua had been clutching before his accident. Song Qingchun, desperate for investment in Huateng Land, pursued a meeting with Mr. Liu of Quansheng Fund, believed to be her last hope. At a kendo hall, she introduced herself as Song Menghua's daughter and passionately pitched Huateng Land's potential, offering her business card.
When Mr. Liu remained silent, she complimented his physique and kendo skills, proposing a sparring match to learn from him. After losing the match and praising his adaptable kendo style, she was furious to discover her opponent was Su Zhinian. He informed her that Geiger Capital had acquired Quansheng Fund last month and advised her to do her research beforehand. Song Qingchun angrily refused his terms, stating she would never have anything to do with him.
Su Zhinian's assistant, Mr. Qi, arrived, greeting Su Zhinian and commenting on his early arrival and warm-up. Song Qingchun faced further setbacks when her broadcasting station informed her of contract termination due to negative publicity and declining ratings. She defended her professional record, arguing the issues stemmed from Huateng Land's crisis, and that she had worked tirelessly for years to build her career without relying on her family.
The station manager countered that her program consistently generated the lowest income and that her father's investments were the only reason she could run it. He asked again if she could confidently separate her work from her family matters. Returning home, Song Qingchun found her house sealed with a court eviction notice.
With nowhere else to go, she took her luggage to the hospital to stay with her father, musing on how her father's complaints about their large, unwelcoming house had ironically come true. As she settled in, a doll she had brought fell, and a small recorder popped out.
Playing it, she heard her father's voice wishing her a happy 24th birthday, expressing pride in her achievements as a host, and advising her to hold onto her aspirations despite future challenges, promising his unwavering support. Overwhelmed and anxious, she tried calling Yi Nan, but he was unreachable. She also called another company's Mr. Zhang for investment, only to find he was abroad. A doctor then informed Song Qingchun that her father's condition, though stable, was not optimistic.
He suggested contacting Professor Zhu's top student, Dr. Yan Yuan, a neurologist at Renji Hospital, handing her his card. Realizing Dr. Yan was the person she'd encountered at Su Zhinian's house, Song Qingchun saw no other option but to accept Su Zhinian's terms.
She returned to Su Zhinian's house and agreed to the cohabitation agreement, adding her own conditions, including the immediate transfer of her father to Renji Hospital under Dr. Yan's care and an investment from Geiger Capital within ten working days. Su Zhinian agreed to her father's transfer by the next morning but stated the large investment would be staggered.
To strengthen the agreement, Song Qingchun proposed that any defaulting party compensate the other with the equivalent investment amount and cease all contact. Su Zhinian found this unfair, as she couldn't afford such a sum, and offered her to add a clause to protect her rights. He then added a critical clause of his own: if Song Qingchun breached the agreement, the cohabitation period would be extended indefinitely.
Weighing her options, she chose the indefinite cohabitation over an unaffordable penalty and signed the "100 Days SOHO Agreement" (Su's Office Home Office). The next morning, Song Menghua was successfully transferred to Renji Hospital. Yan Yuan assured Song Qingchun of his commitment to her father's care, emphasizing Su Zhinian's respect for Song Menghua. However, he then confusingly warned her about Su Zhinian's "petty" nature, advising her to be careful not to offend him, or he might "block" her.
Su Zhinian interrupted their conversation, stating that visiting hours were ending. Upon moving into Su Zhinian's house, Song Qingchun brought only one suitcase for her 100-day stay, insisting she was there for work, not to move in entirely. She chose the unused nanny's room, despite Su Zhinian's warning about its lack of windows, poor lighting, and ventilation.
Later, as she headed out to the supermarket (delivery wasn't available in the area), Su Zhinian reminded her of the contract's clause requiring her to report her whereabouts, questioning if she had prepared the breach-of-contract penalty. At the supermarket, Song Qingchun, trying to save money, eagerly sampled free potato chips and yogurt, buying only the cheapest items. Unbeknownst to her, Su Zhinian was also there, having picked up a strawberry cake and birthday candles.
At checkout, her mobile payment failed twice. Su Zhinian intervened, paying for her items, telling her it wasn't free and she could repay him later. She reluctantly accepted. The cashier offered a discounted set of couple's mugs with their purchase. Su Zhinian initially declined but then asked the cashier to pack them, seemingly for him and Song Qingchun. Back home, Su Zhinian presented Song Qingchun with the strawberry cake, wishing her a happy birthday.
She rejected the cake, reminded him that their cohabitation was purely contractual, and declared she would never forgive him for what happened four years ago. She accused him of ruining her plan to confess to Yi Nan, while he, in turn, expressed frustration that she saw him as a scumbag who would take advantage of her when she was drunk.
He argued that she only believed what she saw and refused to be fair, even though he also "lost his first love" that day. Song Qingchun retorted that he deserved it. Later that evening, while chatting online, Song Qingchun's friends wished her a happy birthday. She confided in them about hitting "rock bottom" and eating "birthday noodles without eggs." A friend encouraged her to still make a wish with candles.
On the balcony, she lit a candle and silently wished for her father's recovery, for Huateng Land to survive the next 100 days, and for herself to overcome her challenges. From inside, Su Zhinian watched her, quietly wishing her a happy birthday. Suddenly, fireworks erupted outside, arranged by Su Zhinian, bringing a moment of joy to Song Qingchun. Just then, Yi Nan called, wishing her a happy birthday and apologizing for his previous unreachability.
He assured her he had seen the news about Huateng Land and would return to China as soon as he handed over his current work, promising to help her deal with the company's issues. Overjoyed, Song Qingchun briefly pretended to be at a party with friends. She excitedly considered terminating her agreement with Su Zhinian, thinking he hadn't yet transferred the funds.
However, upon returning to her room, she received a call from her company informing her that fifty million yuan had already been deposited, leaving her stunned. Su Zhinian then appeared at her door, telling her the first payment was made and it was time to focus on the next steps. He acknowledged her displeasure about living with him but urged her to overcome her resentment and learn to be a CEO, not just a "puppet."
He reminded her of her public promise to provide a satisfactory compensation plan for the victims of Huateng Land's accident. He handed her a stack of books, assigning her first task: to determine how to negotiate with the victims, due next Tuesday. Song Qingchun reflected on her 24th birthday and the start of her cohabitation. She resolved to abandon her life in the spotlight and embrace a new, challenging path, fighting for her father, Huateng Land, and her future self.
The next morning, Su Zhinian prepared breakfast, but Song Qingchun, having stayed up late studying, overslept. The sound of Su Zhinian's assistant ringing the doorbell at 9 AM startled both Song Qingchun, who opened the door, and the assistant.
