> My Girlfriend Is an Alien 2 Recap
Jiang Shiyi prepared a modest starry sky for Chai Xiaoqi's birthday, apologizing that his powers currently limited him to this size and promising a larger one when they returned home. Xiaoqi expressed contentment, finding the display already beautiful, and Jiang Shiyi wished her eternal happiness. Noticing a cake, Xiaoqi thanked him.
She then mused that her birthdays always seemed to have more stars than usual, acknowledging that her friends couldn't gather such a vast display but considering it a gift from the galaxy. Meanwhile, Fang Leng had meticulously prepared a birthday surprise for Chai Xiaoqi. Despite the pouring rain, he persisted, setting up colored lights to mimic stars. Xiaoqi, having received his message to meet, arrived at the spot.
She observed him soaked to the bone and bluntly reminded him that her cooperation was only for the hormone substance and had nothing to do with him personally. Fang Leng acknowledged her previous rejections were sincere but expressed hope, stating he always wished for a hint of sadness from her when she rejected him, which would indicate she might still harbor some feelings for him.
He confessed his feelings directly, stating he liked her and was willing to do foolish things for her for the rest of his life. Xiaoqi was momentarily stunned by his admission. After his efforts in the rain, Fang Leng collapsed from a cold. Xiaoqi rushed him home, contacting Jiang Shiyi to explain she would stay to care for Fang Leng, citing her planet's principle of accountability since he had fallen ill while waiting for her. Jiang Shiyi reluctantly agreed.
While resting in a separate room, Xiaoqi began to recall fragments of non-romantic moments with Fang Leng, like him injured in a hospital. She asked him if they had a past, prompting Fang Leng to suggest a parallel dimension where they were in love. Xiaoqi dismissed this, asserting her home planet's advanced civilization denied such phenomena, and she would always adhere to their belief system, which advocated against emotional attachments.
Fang Leng challenged her, asking if her planet's faith truly brought happiness compared to Earth's freedom to pursue love and happiness. Despite her burgeoning confusion, Xiaoqi reaffirmed her loyalty to her home planet and her genetic match with Jiang Shiyi. Later, as Xiaoqi prepared to leave, Fang Leng feigned dizziness, prompting her to offer to stay another night to care for him. Fang Leng internally acknowledged his ruse, thinking Xiaoqi was once again falling for his trick.
Fang Lie went to a milk tea shop to meet Xiaobu, playfully offering her some frozen fruit he had prepared. As Xiaobu ate, Fang Lie leaned in and kissed her. Sister Chai suddenly appeared nearby, watching with an envious expression and encouraging them to continue their affectionate display. Xiaobu, feeling a bit awkward, suggested Sister Chai go find Dr. Zhang. Sister Chai revealed that Dr. Zhang was busy with overseas training and unavailable.
Jiang Shiyi confronted Fang Leng at an abandoned factory, asserting that if Fang Leng had given up on Xiaoqi earlier, the current troubles would have been avoided. He insisted that Fang Leng and Xiaoqi were impossible. Fang Leng countered, accusing Jiang Shiyi of deceiving Xiaoqi by brainwashing and attempting to turn her into a puppet, while claiming his own actions were to protect her.
Jiang Shiyi, enraged, warned Fang Leng that the Interstellar Peace Law would not restrain him and gave a final ultimatum to abandon Xiaoqi. Fang Leng defiantly declared he would never give her up. During their intense exchange, Fang Leng briefly recalled a tender memory of Xiaoqi calling him "old man" and promising to grow old with him, before promising that wherever she was, was his home.
Jiang Shiyi violently attacked Fang Leng, choking him and throwing him across the abandoned factory floor. Fang Leng, though in immense pain, struggled to rise. As Jiang Shiyi prepared another lethal blow, Chai Xiaoqi suddenly appeared, shielding Fang Leng from the full force of the attack. She fell, and the sapphire ring on her finger glowed intensely, releasing her long-lost memories back into her mind, instantly recalling everything that had happened.
Jiang Shiyi rushed to Xiaoqi, intending to take her away. Xiaoqi, however, firmly told him that she had remembered everything, leaving him stunned. Fang Leng then interjected, accusing Jiang Shiyi of using Xiaoqi to find hormones and become leader, not truly for her protection. Jiang Shiyi vehemently denied this, claiming his ambition was also for Xiaoqi. Xiaoqi then declared that love was a firm choice, not a calculated decision, and because she loved Fang Leng, she would protect him.
She pleaded with Jiang Shiyi to let her and Fang Leng go if he truly cared for her. Jiang Shiyi watched helplessly as Xiaoqi helped Fang Leng to his feet and they began to walk away. After a few steps, Xiaoqi turned back, telling Jiang Shiyi that she did not regret knowing him as a friend or giving him that candy in the past.
Jiang Shiyi returned to his residence, his body severely injured from the excessive use of his powers. He instructed Candy to manage the company during his recovery period, emphasizing that no one should disturb him and forbidding Candy from reporting Xiaoqi's actions, despite Candy's anger. As his body automatically healed, his nerve center began to trigger memory fragments.
He recalled his past as Jilisiburadakaqikaqi No. 11, consistently achieving first place in tests, which guaranteed him a spot in the chief candidate course. He remembered professing his ambition to become stronger to protect those he cared for. A more distant memory surfaced: Jilisikaqiusuolakalaka No. Seven, later known as Chai Xiaoqi, had been lost in space during an interstellar mission.
Jiang Shiyi, as a chief candidate, vouched for her, saving her life but expressing hope that she would not be affected by hormones again. Fang Leng embraced Xiaoqi, who now had all her memories back, telling her that she would have to keep an eye on him because he was easily brainwashed. He revealed that they had been together a long time ago, before his memories were forcibly formatted by an organization.
He showed her the sapphire wedding ring she had given him, where he had cleverly stored all his memories, preventing them from being erased. He confirmed that all the images she had seen on rainy days and in her dreams were real. As they looked at some of the retrieved memories together, Xiaoqi was initially scared by some images but then eagerly wanted to see more.
Fang Leng reassured her that even if time was chaotic or memories were lost, they could always start over as long as she was Chai Xiaoqi. As they embraced, Xiaoqi suddenly felt dizzy, hinting at an approaching crisis related to her physical well-being.
