My Girlfriend Is an Alien 2 Episode 19 Recap
> My Girlfriend Is an Alien 2 Recap
Chai Xiaoqi was heartbroken knowing her time on Earth was running out, while Fang Leng continued to plan their future together, including a trip to eat fried chicken around the world. Unsure how to tell him about her imminent departure, Xiaoqi decided to delay her return to her home planet by disrupting the Hormone Element collection process. She covertly damaged the collection instrument at the company, which would take about a week to repair.
She also attempted to hide the press conference files, but an employee had already created a backup on a USB drive, frustrating her efforts to gain more time. Later, while attempting to collect hormone elements with Fang Leng, Xiaoqi realized that the research department had already improved the collector, tripling its sensitivity and speed, which rendered her efforts to subtly slow down the collection futile. As leaving Earth seemed inevitable, Xiaoqi felt a deep reluctance.
She discussed with Xiao Bu how they could maintain contact with Earthlings after their departure. Xiao Bu, meanwhile, was experiencing issues with her own system, which seemed to be undergoing an "automatic system upgrade" where a heart-shaped firewall occupied 90% of her system, preventing her from using functions like her search engine. She worried about "data cancer," but Xiaoqi suggested it was just an upgrade and offered to take her to Candy for a check-up.
They considered purchasing an interstellar phone on Cape Town Planet, but quickly realized it was prohibitively expensive, requiring 9,999 kyanite. With only nine kyanite, they began brainstorming ways to earn money. Xiaoqi even checked her salary card from Fang Leng, which only amounted to enough for six kyanite, far from what was needed, especially with the additional costs of roaming cards and monthly packages.
Chai, upon delivering facial masks to them, mentioned that purchasing agents could earn significant profits from discounted products abroad. Inspired, Xiaoqi and Xiao Bu decided to become interstellar purchasing agents, planning to sell Earth products on their home planet for a substantial profit. They began preparing numerous items for their friends. Desperate for more money to buy the interstellar phone, Xiaoqi tried to sell a book titled "108 Tricks To Dominate the Workplace" from a used bookstore to Mr. Han.
Originally priced at 98 RMB, she aggressively sold it for 998 RMB, insisting it would lead him to a prosperous career path. Mr. Han, suspicious of her inflated price, informed Fang Leng that Xiaoqi must be in dire need of money. Fang Leng found this puzzling, wondering why Xiaoqi, with a wealthy boyfriend, would struggle financially or not approach him directly if she faced difficulties.
When Xiaoqi asked Fang Leng to fetch her bag, he inadvertently discovered a "farewell gift list" she had prepared for everyone, which implied she was planning to leave him. Realizing Xiaoqi was planning to leave him, Fang Leng was deeply troubled and wondered what he would do without her. Soon after, he was involved in a car accident. Though not severely injured, he suffered memory loss. Xiaoqi rushed to his side, but Fang Leng asked her who she was.
Mr. Han, believing Fang Leng was experiencing a relapse of his "rainy weather amnesia," attempted to remind him of his romantic relationship with Xiaoqi. However, Fang Leng remained cold and insisted Xiaoqi leave. Despite this, Mr. Han emphasized that Xiaoqi's presence was crucial for the Hormone Element project, compelling Fang Leng to let her stay. Xiaoqi learned from the doctor that it was temporary amnesia, and Xiao Bu expressed concern that this would severely delay their mission.
Xiaoqi, however, vowed to cure Fang Leng's amnesia. Determined to restore his memory, Xiaoqi tried various methods to prompt Fang Leng's recollection. She attempted to evoke a shared memory by calling herself "mashed taro" and him "milk green tea," but he dismissed it, stating he only drank Americano and reminding her he needed experimental samples for work. She tried to remind him of her old delivery uniform and their past interactions, including his possessiveness over "chicken drumsticks."
Fang Leng, however, remained impassive, asserting he wouldn't do or say such strange things and never ate "junk food." When she tried to physically recreate a past intimate moment, he merely said he couldn't remember and to forget it. Xiao Bu, separately, had tried to fix her own "heart-shaped firewall" problem by implanting a virus to break it, calling it "fighting fire with fire," but it failed because Earth's computer viruses were too weak.
Xiaoqi returned upset, expressing her frustration that Fang Leng remembered everyone else but her. Xiao Bu reminded her that their relationship was initially for the mission, but Xiaoqi was still clearly saddened by his amnesia. Hoping that taste could stimulate memory, Xiaoqi decided to cook for Fang Leng, using Chai's recipes. Her attempt resulted in burnt food, which Fang Leng immediately recognized, citing her previous "burning the kitchen" incident.
He revealed Mr. Han had told him she was a "kitchen at all costs." Fang Leng's memory of this specific detail from Mr. Han, coupled with his inconsistent claims about his preferences (remembering he disliked fried food but not that snow fungus porridge was his favorite), made Xiaoqi suspect he might be feigning amnesia. In a desperate attempt, Xiaoqi prepared a lavish meal and encouraged him to drink copious amounts of alcohol.
As he became increasingly intoxicated, Fang Leng's demeanor shifted dramatically. He became clingy and child-like, expressing desires to visit an amusement park or arcade and calling for his mother. Xiaoqi tried to coax him into admitting whether his amnesia was real, but his drunken babbling made it impossible. He misunderstood her attempts to quiet him as hatred, insisting that if she didn't hate him, she must like him, a notion he attributed to his mother's teachings. Exhausted, Xiaoqi reluctantly affirmed that she liked him.
