My Girl Episode 5 Recap
> My Girl Recap
After graduation, everyone said Shen Yi was crazy, neglecting Qianshan Group to start a cosmetics business, even if he lost money, he would continue doing it. In fact, Shen Yi entered the cosmetics industry for the girl from his childhood, who was Meng Hui. He just wanted her to be able to buy foundation that could cover scars whenever she wanted. He didn't expect that she was right by his side.
Moreover, Meng Hui's stress disorder was also caused by him. Guilty Shen Yi wanted to make it up to Meng Hui. Since Meng Hui liked him, he would be her boyfriend. Meng Hui woke up in a room piled high with gifts. Everything inside was what she had always wanted, just like a dream. What felt even more like a dream was Shen Yi lying on the carpet.
Seeing Shen Yi, Meng Hui remembered her 'extortion-like' behavior during her symptoms and felt extremely ashamed. The best plan was to leave. Meng Hui decided to sneak away before Shen Yi woke up. Tiptoeing with her shoes in hand, ready to sneak out, she hadn't even reached the door when Shen Yi woke up. Meng Hui's drastic change in temperament was due to stress disorder, but Shen Yi, after waking up, didn't know what was wrong with him.
Not only did he say he would buy whatever Meng Hui liked from now on, but he also said he wanted to be Meng Hui's real boyfriend and be responsible for the rest of her life. Meng Hui knew Shen Yi was a good person, but she didn't like Shen Yi and didn't want to 'scam' him. Meng Hui didn't like Shen Yi, and if they didn't date, Shen Yi wouldn't be able to make it up to her.
Helpless Shen Yi sought out his friend Sui An to discuss a plan. Sui An couldn't do anything about Meng Hui not liking Shen Yi, but as the director of a cosmetic surgery hospital, Sui An could first help Meng Hui assess the difficulty of scar repair. Meng Hui's scar was too deep and old, making it very difficult to repair. Perhaps Professor Smith might still be able to do it.
Meng Hui and the others from the production team apologized for their previous actions and explained to everyone that she had nothing to do with Shen Yi. However, Shen Yi's earlier confession during the live broadcast had caused a deep misunderstanding among everyone. Just when Meng Hui was unable to explain herself, Shen Yi even sent someone to deliver gifts, which made it even harder to clarify.
Meng Hui thought Shen Yi misunderstood that she had a foundation that could cover scars, so she went to find Shen Yi to make everything clear. There was no foundation that could cover scars; she had just mixed and blended eight different foundations based on her own skin tone. However, Shen Yi told Meng Hui that he didn't care about any foundation now, only about her.
But Meng Hui didn't like him, so Shen Yi was willing to be friends with Meng Hui. Because Meng Hui removed her makeup on the show and revealed her scar, the show was suspended. To prevent Shen Yi from withdrawing his investment, the production team asked Meng Hui to help plead with Shen Yi not to withdraw the investment.
After being persuaded by everyone, Meng Hui took the address of Shen Yi's home given by the production team and arrived in front of a very old house. Looking at the house in front of her, Meng Hui even began to doubt if she had come to the wrong place, until she rang the doorbell and saw Shen Yi. The old house was furnished with old furniture, and there were piles of waste paper stacked in the corner.
Out of politeness, Shen Yi went to boil water for tea for Meng Hui and told her to look around freely. At the entrance, Meng Hui found a section of wall covered by a curtain. Out of curiosity, Meng Hui pulled back the curtain. She didn't expect it to be some plaques for Shen Yi's charity work. Remembering how Shen Yi used to haggle over even two dimes, she realized he had done so much charity work in private.
Meng Hui began to see Shen Yi in a different light. Shen Yi had bought Meng Hui many gifts before, and as a return gift, Meng Hui also bought Shen Yi a pair of the latest cufflinks. Shen Yi didn't want Meng Hui to feel that spending money on her was a burden. Near dinner time, the always stingy Shen Yi treated the whole company to dinner, just to get a coupon for Meng Hui. He wanted Meng Hui to be happy without any burden, and he even made samples of the company's most high-end luxury products to give to Meng Hui.
