Revenged Love Episode 16 Recap
> Revenged Love Recap
Wang Shuo arrived at Wu Suowei's company, introducing himself and immediately taking on a condescending tone. He commented on Wu Suowei's outfit, noting it was from Chi Cheng and that Chi Cheng's taste remained unchanged, always favoring black. Wu Suowei, unfazed, asked Wang Shuo if he liked Guo Chengyu. Wang Shuo avoided a direct answer, instead characterizing Chi Cheng as a petty and annoying person who used to nag him constantly, even leading to arguments involving knives.
He asserted that whether he liked Guo Chengyu was irrelevant; what mattered was Chi Cheng's possessiveness over everything he did. Wu Suowei then deduced that Wang Shuo didn't genuinely like Guo Chengyu. Wang Shuo went on to define "liking" as unlimited tolerance and forbearance, while "love," he claimed, was the exact opposite: unreasonable and petty.
Before leaving, Wang Shuo handed Wu Suowei his home address and a password, inviting him to visit the next day to measure for "fixtures and furniture," offering the service as a free gift, despite Wu Suowei's polite refusal. He provocatively told Wu Suowei to "make more effort" because "being spoiled is not a good thing." Later that night, as Wu Suowei lay in bed, he tested Chi Cheng by remarking on how talkative Chi Cheng's old friend must be.
Chi Cheng, still awake, immediately guessed that Wang Shuo had come to see him. Wu Suowei commented on their "tacit understanding," which made Chi Cheng nervous. Chi Cheng quickly reassured Wu Suowei that his concern was with a past "matter," not Wang Shuo as a person, and guaranteed he could kick Wang Shuo out if Wu Suowei was uncomfortable. Wu Suowei simply said he believed him. The following day, Wu Suowei went to Wang Shuo's house.
As expected, Wang Shuo had set up a computer displaying old videos. Wu Suowei watched, initially trying to appear nonchalant, but as the videos played, showing Chi Cheng, Wang Shuo, and Guo Chengyu in affectionate and clingy interactions, a sense of jealousy began to stir within him. The videos showed Guo Chengyu often behind the camera or participating in their activities.
The most impactful moment was Chi Cheng's answer when Wang Shuo asked, "Who is the most important person in your heart, Chi Cheng?" to which Chi Cheng unequivocally replied, "Guo Chengyu." Deeply affected, Wu Suowei secretly copied the videos. As he was leaving, he encountered Wang Shuo's older brother, Wang Zhen, whom he recognized from their previous brief encounter at the hospital.
Impressed by Wang Zhen's boxing skills, Wu Suowei immediately asked him to teach him, explaining his desire to become stronger to "counterattack" someone at home. Wang Zhen agreed to teach him boxing at his house. Wu Suowei then took the copied videos to Jiang Xiaoshuai, seeking his analysis. They watched the video where Chi Cheng declared Guo Chengyu the most important person.
Jiang Xiaoshuai expressed surprise, noting that Chi Cheng seemed to have genuinely liked Guo Chengyu, but Guo Chengyu's constant filming suggested he didn't reciprocate those feelings. This raised a crucial question: if Guo Chengyu didn't like Chi Cheng or Wang Shuo, why had he slept with Wang Shuo? Wu Suowei mentioned that Wang Shuo had deliberately avoided answering if he liked Guo Chengyu, always deflecting to Chi Cheng.
They both concluded that Wang Shuo held the key to unraveling the truth of the past, though Jiang Xiaoshuai warned Wu Suowei to be cautious of Wang Shuo, likening him to a "venomous snake." Wu Suowei, however, vowed not to let Wang Shuo succeed in any schemes. Wu Suowei returned to Wang Shuo's house, not for decorating, but to train with Wang Zhen.
While Wu Suowei engaged in boxing practice, Wang Shuo tried to provoke him again, asking if Wu Suowei thought clearing things up with Chi Cheng would lead to a reconciliation. Wu Suowei dismissed the idea as unlikely. Wang Shuo then pondered creating misunderstandings between Wu Suowei and Chi Cheng, to which Wu Suowei simply replied, "You might as well give it a try." Wu Suowei clarified his true motive for being there was to help Chi Cheng resolve past issues.
Wang Shuo watched them train and grew jealous, making annoyed comments as he ate snacks. After Wu Suowei left, Wang Shuo complained to his brother, Wang Zhen, expressing his dislike for Wu Suowei and asking Wang Zhen not to associate with him. Wang Zhen retorted by calling Wang Shuo a "chameleon" and admitting that he felt like hitting Wang Shuo whenever he saw him.
Their sibling banter escalated into an argument about their height and personality, during which Wang Shuo took some medicine. Back with Jiang Xiaoshuai, Wu Suowei enthusiastically demonstrated the new boxing moves he learned from Wang Zhen. He praised Wang Zhen extensively, describing him as strong, gentle, and "super invincible cool." Jiang Xiaoshuai grew concerned, sensing Wu Suowei might be developing feelings for Wang Zhen and warned him against doing anything foolish, reminding him of Chi Cheng's deep affection.
However, Wu Suowei expressed doubts about Chi Cheng's sincerity, suggesting that Chi Cheng might no longer want him, and that he was simply "giving him a way out." Later, Wu Suowei discussed an art installation problem with Wang Zhen. Wang Zhen offered assistance, stating he had solved a similar problem before and offered the contact information of a helpful designer.
While Wang Zhen searched for the business card, Wu Suowei seized an opportunity to discreetly obtain Wang Shuo's outpatient medical record. The record showed Wang Shuo had been diagnosed with "bipolar disorder and severe anxiety." That evening, Chi Cheng noticed Wu Suowei chatting on his phone and asked who it was. Wu Suowei feigned poor phone signal and retreated to the bedroom. Chi Cheng, suspicious, messaged Wang Shuo, asking if Wu Suowei had visited his house that afternoon.
Wang Shuo, seeing an opportunity to sow discord, replied affirmatively and added a suggestive detail, claiming they had "practiced boxing hand in hand." He also sent a video of Wu Suowei and Wang Zhen training. Enraged by Wang Shuo's insinuation and the video, Chi Cheng immediately went to Wang Shuo's house, picked up Wu Suowei, and carried him back home. There, Chi Cheng restrained Wu Suowei with a chain, preventing him from leaving freely.
Wu Suowei, still defiant, intentionally provoked Chi Cheng by asking why he wasn't with Guo Chengyu. Chi Cheng reacted fiercely, like a hungry tiger, indicating a heated and passionate confrontation. Determined to understand Wang Shuo's past actions, Wu Suowei showed Wang Shuo's medical record to Jiang Xiaoshuai. Jiang Xiaoshuai explained that bipolar disorder typically involves alternating episodes of depression and mania, and in severe cases, can lead to auditory hallucinations, delusions, and extreme behavioral disturbances.
They speculated that Wang Shuo's condition might explain some of his extreme actions in the past. As they discussed, Wang Shuo unexpectedly arrived at Jiang Xiaoshuai's clinic. Wang Shuo brazenly told Wu Suowei that he was there to see Jiang Xiaoshuai and that they were now "on very good terms" and had "even slept together." Shocked and angered by this new revelation, Wu Suowei felt like an outsider and stormed out despite Jiang Xiaoshuai's attempts to stop him.
Jiang Xiaoshuai then confronted Wang Shuo, telling him to stop pretending. Wu Suowei, still upset, sought out Wang Zhen, and they played basketball together. Wang Zhen impressed Wu Suowei with his exceptional skills on the court. While they were playing, Chi Cheng drove up with Wang Shuo in the car, witnessing Wu Suowei and Wang Zhen together, triggering another wave of jealousy.
Wang Shuo used this moment to taunt Chi Cheng, mentioning "Little Jealous One" (Chi Cheng's pet snake) and suggesting they go to the snake park together. Suddenly, Chi Cheng received an urgent call from "Hongshan Hospital" about his mother, Zhang Liya, needing immediate payment for hospital expenses. He abruptly ordered Wang Shuo out of the car and rushed away. Wu Suowei, having seen Chi Cheng arrive with Wang Shuo, felt a pang of jealousy himself.
He sat on a park bench, letting the rain soak him, unwilling to move. Wang Zhen, noticing Wu Suowei's distress, came over with an umbrella, comforting him and offering to help him retrieve "Little Jealous One" from Wang Shuo.
