My Amazing Boyfriend Episode 24 Recap
> My Amazing Boyfriend Recap
Picking up after his confession, Li Yanzhi asks Tian Jingzhi to dinner and expresses his deep affection for her, presenting a ring he had bought long before they even started dating. He speaks of cherishing life more after having "died once" and his strong desire to fight for their relationship, vowing to wait for her. Tian Jingzhi, however, gently apologizes, explaining that her heart is already filled by Xue Lingqiao.
She admits that while she knew her love for Xue Lingqiao was impossible from the start, she couldn't help but cling to hope even after their relationship had ended, and she urges Li Yanzhi not to become like her. Their dinner is interrupted by a call from Little Squid, informing Li Yanzhi that Hong Shilong has surfaced and is scheduled to leave the country the next day. Li Yanzhi instructs Little Squid to set up an ambush at the airport.
Unbeknownst to them, Xue Lingqiao, seated at a nearby table, overhears their entire conversation. Misled by Hong Shiguang, Xue Lingqiao believes Hong Shilong is the enemy who drained his blood a century ago. He follows Hong Shilong to the airport's underground parking lot, where a fully armed Detective Zhang attacks Hong Shilong, stabbing him during the struggle. Xue Lingqiao arrives moments later and, seizing Hong Shilong by the neck, prepares to kill him.
However, a perceptive Li Yanzhi senses something is wrong and rushes to the scene with his team. Xue Lingqiao uses his superhuman abilities to vanish, leaving a wounded but alive Hong Shilong to be rescued. At the hospital, Hong Shilong refuses to speak without his lawyer present. Li Yanzhi stations officers to guard his room, but Detective Zhang orchestrates a diversion by having two people stage a fight, luring the police away from their post.
Infiltrating the room, Zhang attempts to strangle Hong Shilong. Just as he is about to succeed, Xue Lingqiao intervenes, saving Hong Shilong for a second time. Detective Zhang's persistent attempts to murder Hong Shilong force Xue Lingqiao to question his own judgment. He re-examines a photo sent by Miss Kan and realizes he has been deceived. His suspicion is confirmed when Feng Dongdong calls, explaining that the photo of the supposed culprit is a fake.
A tiny, almost imperceptible curvature in the brickwork near the man's cheek proves the image was photoshopped, meaning the person in the photo is not the true mastermind. Meanwhile, Li Yanzhi reviews the hospital's surveillance footage, clearly identifying Detective Zhang at the scene of the second attack. He immediately orders Little Squid to apply for arrest and search warrants for the detective. Xue Lingqiao goes to Detective Zhang's office and takes his computer.
He brings it to Feng Dongdong's house, where he unexpectedly finds Tian Jingzhi engrossed in a video game. Masking her feelings, Tian Jingzhi feigns composure as Xue Lingqiao asks Feng Dongdong to decrypt the computer's files. After Xue Lingqiao assures him that Zhang is wanted for attempted murder, Feng Dongdong excitedly agrees.
Tian Jingzhi expresses her concern that Xue Lingqiao might get into trouble hunting his enemy, but he coolly replies that anyone who encounters him is the one in trouble. They also discuss their breakup, with Tian Jingzhi regretting her past treatment of him. When Xue Lingqiao says he doesn't hate her, she misinterprets it as a complete lack of feeling. Following his near-death experiences, Hong Shilong finally tells Li Yanzhi the truth.
He admits to hiring someone to kill Hong Shiguang—the incident behind the car chase—but claims he was forced to act because he knew Hong Shiguang also wanted him dead. He vehemently denies any involvement in the Villa 56 murder or the charity banquet arson. Hong Shilong further asserts that Hong Shiguang is not his uncle's biological son, claiming the paternity test was falsified.
He explains that the doctor who performed the test disappeared after immigrating to Australia, shortly after a large, suspicious wire transfer was made to the doctor's father's account and subsequently moved to the doctor's personal account. Hong Shilong vows to reclaim the Hong Shi Group, which he believes is rightfully his. Unbeknownst to them, Hong Shiguang is listening to the entire confession through a hidden microphone.
Xue Lingqiao takes Tian Jingzhi to the seaside to meet his old friend, a turtle named Shui Sheng that he raised over a century ago. Fascinated, Tian Jingzhi nicknames the turtle "Master Roshi." At her insistence, Xue Lingqiao agrees to take her to the remote mountains where he plans to live in seclusion, framing it as a "break-up trip" to experience his future life.
Before they leave, Tian Jingzhi texts Feng Dongdong, telling him not to contact them even after he decrypts the files. Li Yanzhi's investigation corroborates Hong Shilong's story. He confirms the doctor who performed the paternity test is a reported missing person and traces the unexplained overseas payment. Concluding Hong Shilong's suspicions are credible, Li Yanzhi decides to request Interpol's cooperation.
He instructs Little Squid to keep a close watch on Hong Shilong for his safety and to continue the hunt for the fugitive Detective Zhang. Meanwhile, Zhang Xuanxuan learns from an assistant that Hong Shiguang is reportedly unwell and has been working from home.
