My Neighbour Can't Sleep Episode 7 Recap
> My Neighbour Can't Sleep Recap
Xi Song had long known that Song Miduo was secretly following him; he didn't stop her and even smiled whenever he saw her. Although he wasn't interested in boring novels, he couldn't resist his curiosity and eventually read the novel Song Miduo wrote. Later, Xi Song's father called, asking if he was disturbing his piano practice.
He then informed Xi Song that Su Li would be returning to the country soon and asked him to prepare the house to ensure her comfort. Su Li, Xi Song's childhood sweetheart, is a professional cellist, known for being gentle and generous. She has always liked Xi Song and put in much effort to be with him. Xi Song, however, was not particularly enthusiastic, giving his father perfunctory answers and attempting to end the call.
Suddenly, he heard Song Miduo secretly playing his piano. He immediately yelled at her to stop touching it, which surprised his father, who wondered who was with him so late at night. To quickly conclude the conversation, Xi Song claimed that Song Miduo was his girlfriend and told his father not to disturb them while they slept. Xi Song's father was proud of his son finding a girlfriend and briefly cautioned him against being rude to her before hanging up.
Song Miduo, having overheard Xi Song refer to her as his girlfriend, was overjoyed. Later, as she lay bundled in bed, Xi Song entered the bedroom and reached to turn off the lights for sleep. Song Miduo suddenly became nervous and exclaimed that he couldn't turn off the lights, explaining that it wouldn't be safe if she needed to use the restroom at night.
Xi Song, puzzled by her request to sleep with the lights on, instead turned on a bedside lamp. Its soft glow illuminated the dark room and their faces, now close to each other. Xi Song, unfazed, simply asked if she felt safe now, to which Song Miduo shyly nodded. A moment later, she complained that the lamp was too bright and hurt her eyes. Sleepy, Xi Song told her to turn over and face away from the light.
Song Miduo complied, turning to face the already-sleeping Xi Song. She then began to chat with him, asking many questions. Xi Song patiently answered. She inquired about his large villa, his family in the U. S. , and Aunt Gu, learning that Aunt Gu was a hired aunt responsible for his daily needs and had been with him for nearly ten years, like family.
Song Miduo also found his manager, Liang Ge, a bit strange, though Xi Song told her to look him up online. She then asked if his insomnia was real and why he insisted on "her" to accompany him to sleep when many other girls would be willing. He replied that no one else would do. Song Miduo's heart fluttered at his words.
Song Miduo then asked Xi Song if he had any questions for her, but he only wanted to sleep and had none. As she watched him drift off, Song Miduo mused that love begins with curiosity, and it seemed he truly didn't like her, but she liked him very, very much. The next morning, a sleepy Song Miduo was drawn downstairs by the aroma of breakfast and secretly ate some of the meal Aunt Gu had prepared.
Soon after, Song Miduo's parents arrived as new neighbors to pay a visit, bringing homemade pastries. Aunt Gu, however, was cold and impolite, commenting on their daughter's loud and penetrating voice and stating that Xi Song was too busy to join them for a meal. Song Miduo's mother was displeased and quickly left with her husband. Meanwhile, Xiao Mi encountered her ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend.
Xiao Mi had started dating him under the false impression that he had broken up with his girlfriend. She decided to get her revenge. She confronted the couple, repeating all the negative comments her ex-boyfriend had made about his current girlfriend. Initially disbelieving, the girlfriend became furious upon learning that he had even disclosed a private detail about her breast augmentation. She immediately broke up with him.
Satisfied, Xiao Mi received a message from Song Miduo, which she happily responded to. Back at Xi Song's home, Song Miduo had acquired a large amount of personal "equipment" that now occupied most of Xi Song's room. Seeing her setup, Xi Song reluctantly instructed Aunt Gu not to clean his room anymore. Fourteen days passed, and Song Miduo had grown accustomed to her cohabitation with Xi Song.
When her parents packed their luggage for a camping trip and announced she was coming, she refused. Unable to resist her mother's insistence, she feigned a stomachache, claiming she had her period. Her mother saw through her poor acting but chose not to expose her. Lu Yiyou, however, believed her and insisted on staying to care for her.
Song Miduo became anxious as Lu Yiyou's constant presence prevented her from going to Xi Song's for their last night of the "sleep-sharing" agreement. To get rid of Lu Yiyou, Song Miduo suggested they watch TV and then have a drink together. She drank water while he drank alcohol. Lu Yiyou naively agreed. Song Miduo cunningly found various reasons to ply him with drink after drink, and he continued drinking until he passed out after more than thirty glasses.
Song Miduo then settled him onto the sofa, covered him with a blanket, and promptly rushed off to Xi Song's house for their final night together. In his drunken sleep, Lu Yiyou dreamt of Song Miduo, wishing he had successfully confessed his feelings to her and could always be by her side.
