> Please Love Me Recap
When Yi Han questioned how investors could continue to support him unconditionally, Lin Tiannuo calmly informed him that they had withdrawn their funds. Concerned about the film crew, Yi Han suggested Lin Tiannuo replace him to prevent his personal issues from affecting "Remaining Life." However, Lin Tiannuo asserted that Yi Han was indispensable for the role of Shen Bing, and his decision was based purely on professional judgment, not personal ties.
With the last of the funds, the crew could only film for one more day, which was Yi Han's final scene. The movie was prematurely wrapped, leaving Yi Han filled with deep self-reproach. Meanwhile, Youyou visited Kan Di, who revealed that the police had identified Gao Lang as the mastermind behind Youyou's birthday kidnapping. They realized he was also orchestrating the current photo scandal.
Discussing Yezi's ex-boyfriend, Xiao Rui, Youyou and Kan Di realized that Sun Qingqing lacked the cunning to manipulate people in such a complex manner, leading them to believe Gao Lang was behind everything. Youyou was determined to find evidence to prove Yi Han's innocence, no matter the difficulty, beginning with suing Gao Lang for kidnapping and seeking proof against Sun Qingqing for slander. Yi Han's situation grew dire.
His agency planned to terminate his contract but offered Kan Di lucrative terms to stay and train new talent. Kan Di, however, refused, declaring her unwavering loyalty to Yi Han. Hearing of Kan Di's predicament from his assistant, Dawei, Yi Han felt immense guilt. To settle his debts, Yi Han listed his house for sale. As he packed his belongings alone, he found Youyou's items, which brought back painful memories of their playful moments together.
Unable to bear staying in the empty house, he called Dawei, asking him to come early the next morning to help with the packing, as he would spend the night at a hotel. Using their connections, Youyou and Kan Di tracked Xiao Rui, whose real name was Liu Xiao, to Nuo Wa bar. Coincidentally, Lin Tiannuo was also there, disheartened by the premature halt of "Remaining Life." Seeing Kan Di, he quickly joined their efforts to apprehend Liu Xiao.
Liu Xiao attempted to flee, with Youyou in close pursuit. Kan Di twisted her ankle while chasing, and Lin Tiannuo stayed behind to care for her, seizing the opportunity to be near her. Youyou eventually caught up to Liu Xiao. Just as he tried to resist, Yi Han appeared, causing Liu Xiao to confess that Gao Lang had instructed him to approach Yezi, destroy Youyou's nail art samples, and instigate conflict between Yi Han and Youyou at a dinner.
Inspired by Youyou's unwavering support, Yi Han resolved to take action. He initiated a live broadcast to clarify the recent events. He categorically dismissed Sun Qingqing's accusations as "baseless rubbish" and an insult to his standards of beauty and taste.
He announced his intention to sue Sun Qingqing for slander and burglary, stating he had security camera footage proving her illegal entry into his home and theft of his and Youyou's contract, as well as an attempt to seduce him at his hotel. He then revealed his divorce from Youyou, taking responsibility for not providing her with enough support and trust during their marriage.
He apologized to her and expressed gratitude for her tireless efforts to gather evidence for his appeal. Yi Han explained that he disclosed their divorce to free Youyou, allowing her to pursue her own life without being bound by the "Yi Han's wife" label, as he felt he had already owed her too much. During the broadcast, Yi Han declared his indefinite withdrawal from the entertainment industry, acknowledging his failure to serve as a role model.
He vowed to fully pay any contractual penalties but asserted he would not yield an inch in recovering his dignity. He also stated his absolute commitment to pursuing legal action against Sun Qingqing and Gao Lang, even if it meant losing everything, determined not to let them tarnish his reputation with their "dirty tactics." Youyou watched the live stream, her tears flowing freely when he announced their divorce and intensifying when he declared his exit from the entertainment industry.
