Revenged Love Episode 12 Recap
> Revenged Love Recap
Under charming lights, the atmosphere was thick with intimacy. To ease Wu Suowei's nerves, Chi Cheng gently covered his eyes, and Wu Suowei submitted to him. Chi Cheng affectionately urged Wu Suowei to call him "husband," a request Wu Suowei shyly refused. The next morning, Chi Cheng, already dressed, gave Wu Suowei a tender kiss and offered him a homemade breakfast. Wu Suowei found it difficult to move, his legs weak, but insisted he could manage on his own.
At the breakfast table, Chi Cheng playfully teased him, suggesting he eat well or he "won't last long." Overwhelmed, Wu Suowei tried to escape the situation by claiming his mother missed him and he wanted to go home. Chi Cheng offered to take him, but Wu Suowei, sensing Chi Cheng saw through his attempts, declined. Feeling cornered, Wu Suowei desperately tried to call Jiang Xiaoshuai for help, but his calls went unanswered.
He decided to go to the hospital to find him. An employee informed Wu Suowei that Dr. Jiang hadn't been on duty for several days, only appearing at the clinic in the middle of the night and acting suspiciously. Perplexed, Wu Suowei decided to wait at the dark clinic until midnight, hoping to see his friend. Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaoshuai had been secretly staying at Guo Chengyu's house.
Guo Chengyu teased Jiang Xiaoshuai about his cooking skills, which Jiang Xiaoshuai explained he learned because his parents had raised him like a daughter. Jiang Xiaoshuai explained his deep bond with Chi Cheng, with whom he grew up, and asked Guo Chengyu to keep his whereabouts secret. Later that night, as Wu Suowei waited in the clinic, he was startled by Chi Cheng, who had found him there.
Jealous, Chi Cheng confronted him, accusing him of rejecting him for two nights just to meet with Jiang Xiaoshuai. As they struggled, Jiang Xiaoshuai returned. Noticing the door was ajar and suspecting a thief, he armed himself before entering, only to be shocked when he discovered Wu Suowei and Chi Cheng intimately entwined. Chi Cheng brazenly invited Jiang Xiaoshuai to join them, but an embarrassed Jiang Xiaoshuai quickly retreated.
Wu Suowei felt utterly mortified, believing he could never face his friend again. Chi Cheng, still jealous of Wu Suowei's midnight search for Jiang Xiaoshuai, dismissed his explanation that he was simply worried about his friend and took his phone. Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaoshuai, believing Guo Chengyu had orchestrated the embarrassing encounter, angrily confronted him at his home. Guo Chengyu appeared fresh from the shower, making Jiang Xiaoshuai flustered.
Guo Chengyu then produced a bottle of what he called an "aphrodisiac essence," which Jiang Xiaoshuai accidentally sprayed on himself during a struggle. Under its influence, Jiang Xiaoshuai became disoriented and felt extremely hot, repeatedly calling out "Meng Tao" in his altered state. The next morning, he woke up with only a headache as a lingering effect of the previous night's events. Chi Cheng later visited Wu Suowei's mother, bringing supplements.
He found her unwell, and despite her assurances, he insisted on taking her to the hospital for a check-up. After bringing her home, Chi Cheng stayed for a chat. He highly praised Wu Suowei's work performance, and his mother expressed her worries about Wu Suowei's future due to his honest nature.
She then tearfully confided in Chi Cheng about Wu Suowei's past, recounting how he had dated a girl for three years and they were on the verge of marriage before she abruptly left him. While Wu Suowei claimed incompatibility, his mother believed the girl had abandoned him because their family was poor. Chi Cheng consoled her before giving her instructions for her medication and leaving.
Jiang Xiaoshuai returned to work, where a patient welcomed him back, having mistakenly thought his "old lover" had returned. Later, Wu Suowei confronted Jiang Xiaoshuai, who confessed that Chi Cheng had given him an ultimatum: he had five days to make Wu Suowei willingly sleep with him, or Jiang Xiaoshuai would face trouble.
Jiang Xiaoshuai admitted he had been hiding at Guo Chengyu's place because Guo Chengyu told him that Wu Suowei and Chi Cheng hadn't slept together yet, making him feel it was safe to avoid his "task." Wu Suowei, though taken aback, didn't blame Jiang Xiaoshuai, understanding he was coerced.
He lamented how easily he had fallen for Chi Cheng's cunning, comparing himself and Jiang Xiaoshuai to sheep and Chi Cheng to a fox, with Guo Chengyu being the most cunning of all. Wu Suowei decided it was time to confess his original intentions for approaching Chi Cheng, hoping that since both had made mistakes, they could start fresh. He asked Jiang Xiaoshuai if he and Guo Chengyu had become intimate, which Jiang Xiaoshuai denied.
Jiang Xiaoshuai then launched into a detailed analysis, concluding that Guo Chengyu actually harbored feelings for Chi Cheng. He supported his theory by pointing out how Guo Chengyu readily gave Wu Suowei a snake to save Chi Cheng's pet and took Wu Suowei to the hospital out of concern for Chi Cheng's reaction.
He further noted the deep rivalry between Chi Cheng and Guo Chengyu over an ex-lover, Wang Shuo, and that neither man had sought out Wang Shuo in seven years. He concluded that Guo Chengyu's antagonism stemmed from unrequited love for Chi Cheng, even implying Chi Cheng reciprocated these feelings, citing an incident where Chi Cheng hesitated to hit Guo Chengyu during a fight.
Wu Suowei, however, dismissed this as speculation driven by Jiang Xiaoshuai's own desire to believe Guo Chengyu wasn't interested in him. Back home, Wu Suowei practiced his confession, planning to condemn Chi Cheng for his manipulation and then reveal his own initial motive. However, Chi Cheng arrived with delicious food that instantly disarmed him. After Wu Suowei ate, just as he was gathering his resolve, Chi Cheng presented him with a new outfit, further softening his anger.
Despite this, Wu Suowei finally confronted Chi Cheng, accusing him of hypocrisy for coercing Jiang Xiaoshuai. He expressed his hurt, trying to provoke Chi Cheng into an argument. Instead, Chi Cheng calmly admitted his fault, explaining he was impatient and uncertain of Wu Suowei's feelings. This sincerity left Wu Suowei reeling, unsure how to confess his own manipulative past.
After a brief exchange about Wang Shuo, Chi Cheng stated his absolute hatred for true deception, which he defined as being kept in the dark about things beyond his control. Taking a deep breath, Wu Suowei finally began his confession, telling Chi Cheng he had approached him with a purpose.
