> My Amazing Boyfriend 2 Recap
Xue Lingqiao returned home, showing signs of having been drinking, which Feng Dongdong correctly deduced was with Li Yanzhi, given Xue Lingqiao's serious expression, a common side effect from their meetings. Xue Lingqiao then asked Feng Dongdong about Tian Jingzhi's evening, but Feng Dongdong said he didn't know, having been at company training and not wanting to disturb her. Xue Lingqiao urged Feng Dongdong to be more vigilant when he was around Tian Jingzhi.
Feng Dongdong, startled, misunderstood this as Xue Lingqiao planning to leave them and Little Lucky Star, but Xue Lingqiao quickly clarified it was just a reminder. Feng Dongdong then remembered that Tian Jingzhi had gone out alone that afternoon and had not returned. Xue Lingqiao immediately went to her bedroom to find it empty.
Feng Dongdong recalled Tian Jingzhi mentioning she was going to meet a best friend for afternoon tea, but she had implied she had more than one, leaving Feng Dongdong unsure of her exact location. Xue Lingqiao instructed Feng Dongdong to call Tian Jingzhi. Feng Dongdong, hesitant due to Tian Jingzhi's temper and the late hour, suggested she might be asleep at her best friend's place.
Under Xue Lingqiao's threat, Feng Dongdong reluctantly called, only to find Tian Jingzhi's phone turned off. They then went to Bai Lu’s house, but Tian Jingzhi was not there either. Bai Lu offered to try and locate her by accessing her computer. Bai Lu also noted that Yun Zhen, whom Xue Lingqiao used to refer to as a best friend, was also unreachable as his phone was off.
Growing increasingly anxious, Xue Lingqiao had Feng Dongdong contact Tian Jingzhi’s parents, who were asleep but became very worried upon hearing she was missing. Her grandfather, upon learning of her disappearance, immediately mobilized all his resources, even mentioning ransom and non-consecutive serial numbers as a serious consideration. Li Yanzhi also offered assistance, assuring Tian Jingzhi's father that he would use his private contacts to help search, as it was too soon to file a police report.
After some effort, Bai Lu successfully pinpointed Tian Jingzhi's location. Xue Lingqiao arrived at the location, only to find Tian Jingzhi and Ye Meixiao completely inebriated on the floor. It turned out they had been drinking heavily, commiserating and listing grievances against Xue Lingqiao and Yun Zhen. Tian Jingzhi lamented Xue Lingqiao for breaking up with her under the guise of "for her own good," while Ye Meixiao criticized Yun Zhen for his frequent change of girlfriends and insincere compliments.
They continued, with Tian Jingzhi ridiculing Xue Lingqiao, referring to him as a "single dog" who bought a large popcorn for himself during a movie date, and Ye Meixiao mocking Yun Zhen as a "peacock" with a tiny "brain," who forgot his many girlfriends' names, even one who got a "boob job" for him. Tian Jingzhi later summed up their session as simply a gathering of two forgetful women who drank too much and whose phones coincidentally died.
Xue Lingqiao's frantic search for Tian Jingzhi had led him to ring every doorbell in Ye Meixiao’s building, infuriating Tian Jingzhi and prompting constant apologies from Ye Meixiao to her neighbors. Tian Jingzhi scolded him for overreacting and causing chaos, even accusing him of disturbing Bai Lu, who was pregnant, late at night.
Xue Lingqiao defended his actions by explaining that Bai Lu’s location data only pinpointed the building, and he had no idea Ye Meixiao resided on the top floor, adding that he had sent Bai Lu to rest. Tian Jingzhi continued to berate him, citing the panic he caused her high-blood-pressure-suffering father, her grandfather's upcoming 70th birthday, and her cousins rushing back from overseas, sarcastically suggesting he almost called the United Nations.
When Xue Lingqiao attempted to explain his concern for her, Tian Jingzhi cut him off, stating she was immune to his fleeting affections and demanded he control his feelings, emphasizing that she could manage perfectly fine on her own. She bluntly told him to "stop provoking her if he wouldn't marry her" and insisted on maintaining a limited, neighborly distance.
Undeterred, Xue Lingqiao took her hand, admitting it wasn't the ideal moment but he could not wait "not for another second." He then knelt down and proposed, asking Tian Jingzhi to marry him. The next morning, Tian Jingzhi obsessively cleaned the house, attempting to evade the previous night’s proposal. She called Bai Lu to discuss Xue Lingqiao’s proposal.
Bai Lu inquired if she was upset about her past attempts at matchmaking, to which Tian Jingzhi affirmed her anger, reiterating that she did not like Xue Lingqiao. Bai Lu then asked if she had accepted or rejected the proposal. Tian Jingzhi revealed that Feng Dongdong had arrived to pick them up right after the proposal, interrupting the moment, and she had neither accepted nor rejected.
She confessed to Bai Lu that she felt the situation was now incredibly awkward, fearing they might not even remain friends. She claimed that "monsters and humans are too different," making a relationship with Xue Lingqiao incompatible. When Bai Lu suggested she simply reject him, Tian Jingzhi grew frustrated, lamenting that Bai Lu's "brain" offered no useful advice, before Bai Lu ended their conversation. Later, upon seeing Xue Lingqiao, Tian Jingzhi, still flustered, quickly ran away.
Li Yanzhi met with Xue Lingqiao and confirmed that Tian Jingzhi’s disappearance the previous night was unrelated to mutants. Li Yanzhi confessed his struggle with keeping the secret, describing how he now understood a classmate who detested being told secrets he couldn't share. He revealed that ever since he learned about mutants, he had been forced to tell an endless string of lies to his colleagues. Xue Lingqiao, having lived that way for over five centuries, empathized with him.
Li Yanzhi explained that Xue Lingqiao was the only one he could confide in. He acknowledged the already "difficult situation" of mutants, who live in hiding, and expressed his desire not to expose them and turn them into an "enemy" of ordinary mankind, as long as they didn't commit crimes. However, recent events had begun to shift his perspective. The immense power difference between humans and mutants had become a significant threat, causing him great internal "pain."
He declared that if he were to confirm that the perpetrator of the "murder cases in the cave" was a mutant, he would consider revealing the secret to protect his colleagues and prevent further harm to innocent people, upholding his "creed" as a police officer to ensure justice. Xue Lingqiao sincerely hoped such a day would never come. Recalling Li Yanzhi’s words, Xue Lingqiao pulled Yun Zhen into his home and demanded to know his whereabouts the previous night.
Yun Zhen, in turn, challenged Xue Lingqiao’s right to ask and sarcastically commented on the "big ruckus" Xue Lingqiao caused while searching for Tian Jingzhi, noting he had successfully captured the "domineering woman's" attention. Xue Lingqiao directly asked if Yun Zhen had been at Ye Meixiao's house, a suspicion Yun Zhen vehemently denied, claiming he actively avoided her. Xue Lingqiao's suspicion arose because when he had entered Ye Meixiao's apartment to find Tian Jingzhi, he had noticed a vase overturned.
Meanwhile, at Ye Meixiao's apartment, she and Tian Jingzhi were discussing their awkward sleeping positions. Ye Meixiao humorously mentioned her arm going numb, making her fear it had been chopped off, to which Tian Jingzhi jokingly replied that no one would chop off her arm, but rather "take her kidneys."
