> Mr. Swimmer Recap
Bai Yongze and Song Chacha left together. On the plane, Bai Yongze gazed tenderly at Song Chacha, who had risked everything for him, and kissed her without caring about others' opinions. After the two arrived in Beijing, Song Chacha seemed very excited, saying she hadn't been back for a long time and found all the men on the street very kind.
Bai Yongze felt guilty for not being able to openly acknowledge his relationship with Chacha and loudly declared that Chacha was his girlfriend. Meanwhile, at the resort, Lan Tian felt even worse knowing that Chacha and Bai Yongze had left together. He still hadn't given up on Chacha internally and secretly vowed to compete with Bai Yongze to the very end.
Li Bao seized this opportunity to incessantly curry favor with Bai Yongze's mother, taking her for a massage and deceiving her into believing that she belonged to Bai Yongze. However, her pretense of talking to Bai Yongze on the phone was exposed, and Bai Yongze's mother left in anger. Yongze and Chacha were sitting on a park bench. News of Li Bao sponsoring his living expenses had recently spread everywhere.
A group of older women recognized Bai Yongze, immediately assumed Chacha was a mistress, first cursed Bai Yongze for being heartless, and then came forward to attack Chacha. Bai Yongze alone couldn't stop them, and Chacha's hair was pulled into a mess. After the incident, Song Chacha put on a brave front, saying she was fine. Bai Yongze felt very guilty and hugged her tenderly.
Song Chacha suddenly realized that sometimes two people who love each other are forced to separate. Lan Tian saw the trending topic on Weibo about Chacha being harmed, and the resentment he harbored grew even deeper. Bai Yongze's parents, knowing their son had run away from home, regretted signing the agreement. However, Lan Xin demanded they pay triple the penalty as per the agreement, a sum they couldn't afford. Coupled with Li Bao fanning the flames, chaos erupted.
Bai Yongze and Chacha were sitting dejectedly on a bench, comforting each other. Calls came from both their families; Chacha's mother saw the news and urged her to come home, and Bai Yongze's agent told him to return quickly to quell the turmoil. At the same time, Lan Tian sent Bai Yongze a text message, blaming him for not protecting Chacha well. All at once, the surrounding pressure overwhelmed the two, leaving them breathless.
Bai Yongze hugged the tearful Chacha, and both decided to temporarily separate to protect each other. The resort courtyard was swarming with reporters. Just as everyone was at a loss for how to cope, Bai Yongze returned. He quietly stood before the microphone and said that everything was true, and Song Chacha was just his private chef. Song Chacha also gave her mother the same explanation upon returning home, and she continued to keep her distance from Lan Tian.
Bai Yongze swore that he would return to Chacha after dealing with everything. His parents were also preparing to leave, and when Li Bao went to see them off, she secretly slipped another envelope to Bai Yongze's mother. Swimming training returned to normal. They suddenly found a drowning child crying for help in the sea. Memories from his childhood vaguely surfaced in Bai Yongze's mind.
He ran towards the sea, leaped in, and finally rescued the child, but he himself fainted. Lan Tian stood stunned, remembering the incident of Zhihao's drowning. Chacha heard that Bai Yongze had fainted after saving someone and forced herself to turn and leave. Bai Yongze gradually woke up and said that he might have saved a drowning child when he was young. Upon hearing this, Lan Tian's eyes widened, and he repeatedly stepped back.
