My Fated Boy Episode 15 Recap
> My Fated Boy Recap
As a child, Lin Yang, feeling unwell, was bothered by a young Lu Zhengan's insistence on playing. Seeing her discomfort, a concerned Lu Zhengan asked his aunt if Lin Yang was dying. Lin Yang's mother explained that she was simply growing up. Later, Lu Zhengan asked his own parents what being an adult meant. His father gave a playful definition involving earning money and dating, while his mother offered a more serious one about responsibility and enduring hardship.
Synthesizing these ideas, Lu Zhengan declared his aspiration to become a responsible adult who could earn money, date, marry, and most importantly, take care of Lin Yang. Lin Yang playfully dismissed him as a little brat. Years later, their relationship newly official, Lin Yang and Lu Zhengan sit in a taxi, hands tightly clasped, with a very drunk Cao Ling slumped beside them. Lu Zhengan’s joy is palpable as he stays affectionately close to Lin Yang.
After dropping Cao Ling home, Lin Yang suggests they wait a few days to tell her about their relationship, given Cao Ling's low mood. Lu Zhengan agrees but then insists on going home with Lin Yang. A flustered Lin Yang explains that despite her feelings, she needs an "adaptation process" to their new dynamic.
Amused, Lu Zhengan clarifies he only wants to stay with her and has no other intentions, admitting he's afraid she might regret their decision and wants to ensure she is the first person he sees in the morning. Back at Lin Yang's home, Lu Zhengan holds her close on the sofa, much to her discomfort. She escapes to the bathroom, calling him clingy and expressing her need for personal space.
Puzzled, Lu Zhengan questions why she dislikes it, having heard that most women enjoy it. Lin Yang reassures him she won't regret their decision and promises she'll be there in the morning, convincing him to let her go. After her shower, they end up falling asleep together on the sofa. Lu Zhengan admits he was afraid she would leave and wanted to be able to feel if she moved.
He ponders when he first fell for her, recalling moments like her fighting for him, hearing their parents discuss a potential child marriage, or the first time he called her "Wifey." Lin Yang apologizes for pushing him away, and he admits he was too hasty. She praises his newfound bravery and pledges to learn from him so they can be together fearlessly.
They then playfully debate a past incident where a drunk Lin Yang had forcefully kissed him, something she thought was a dream. Lu Zhengan expresses his gratitude to her for giving him the chance to become a responsible man who can love and care for her, before affectionately calling her "Wifey." The next morning, Yao Dan questions Cao Ling about her blind date. To Yao Dan's surprise, Cao Ling reveals that it was Lin Yang who "succeeded."
Meanwhile, Lin Yang wakes to find Lu Zhengan asleep on the floor beside the sofa, still holding her hand. They cherish the feeling of seeing each other first thing in the morning. Realizing she is late for work, Lin Yang rushes out, but Lu Zhengan catches up to give her breakfast. She gives him a quick kiss before hopping into a taxi, smiling as she watches his excited expression in the rearview mirror.
At work, Lin Yang receives a bouquet of roses from Lu Zhengan, which is observed with a touch of bitterness by Li Tian. At Lu Zhengan's company, Ma Le berates his team for their lackluster promotion plan for Lu Zhengan's debut album, while Lu Zhengan himself is unusually energetic and offers to help. Throughout the day, Lin Yang and Lu Zhengan exchange sweet messages.
Lin Yang’s radiant smile captivates the office, and she gets lost in a photo Lu Zhengan sends her. Her friends, Yao Dan and Cao Ling, press her for details. Cao Ling reveals she wasn't completely blacked out the previous night and witnessed their affection. Lin Yang, flustered, asks for space and encouragement, stressing that their relationship must remain a secret until after Lu Zhengan's album is released. Lu Zhengan, in an exceptionally good mood, asks Ma Le for relationship advice.
Ma Le shares his "wisdom": with women, one shouldn't use logic but appeal to emotion, advising him to give gifts, offer compliments, and always apologize. As Lin Yang's workday ends, Lu Zhengan prepares to pick her up, but Ma Le reminds him their contract forbids public relationships during the promotion period. The issue resolves itself when Lin Yang calls to say she is having dinner with her friends.
Instead, Lu Zhengan enlists a reluctant Ma Le to help him shop for fitness equipment and kitchen supplies for Lin Yang, insisting her health is his priority. At the same time, Lin Yang is buying various skincare products, reasoning that while she doesn't mind aging, she worries Lu Zhengan might.
While shopping, Ma Le complains to Lu Zhengan that they are in the passionate phase of a relationship and should be doing "crazy" things, not acting like a settled domestic couple. Conversely, Lin Yang confides in her friends her fear that she can no longer match the energy of a passionate romance and worries that Lu Zhengan, at twenty-four, will eventually find her, an "older woman," boring.
Lu Zhengan, however, reflects privately that he has already done enough crazy things for her; now, he prefers a simple, steady life, believing it to be more reliable and lasting. As Lin Yang, Cao Ling, and Yao Dan leave the restaurant, they run into Lu Zhengan and Ma Le. Lu Zhengan's eyes light up at the sight of Lin Yang, while Ma Le stares intently at Cao Ling, much to Yao Dan's knowing dismay. Their meeting is briefly interrupted when a passer-by recognizes Lu Zhengan and asks for an autograph, a small sign of his growing fame.
