Stay With Me Episode 26 Recap
> Stay With Me Recap
After returning to China, Li Weiwei intended to explain things to Huo Xiao, but he pre-empted her, saying she had only gone out to relax. He urged her to fully commit to work now, as the international superstar Fang Yalun's wedding dress design had been entrusted to their company, and Fang Yalun was giving him a headache, urgently needing Li Weiwei to save the situation. Meanwhile, Mo Fan visited Chen Yidu, who was visibly depressed after returning from Paris.
Mo Fan advised him to let go, reminding him that he himself had already received the Huo family's wedding invitation, implying that since the marriage was a done deal, he needed to accept it and move on. Li Weiwei presented sample wedding dresses for Fang Yalun to try on. Fang Yalun, in a highly provocative manner, harshly criticized Ling Long's highest-level designs as "exceedingly vulgar" and "ugly beyond belief," claiming they couldn't possibly complement her status as an international superstar.
Fang Yalun's assistant had also arranged for Chen Yidu to design wedding dresses for her, inevitably setting Li Weiwei and Chen Yidu up for another competition. Chen Yidu told Li Weiwei he had received her wedding invitation. As he would be on a business trip to Switzerland soon, he would send Cao Zhong with gifts.
He also made it clear that he would not go easy on her for this order, and wouldn't deliberately 'go easy' just because she was getting married. Huo Xiao confronted Chen Yidu, telling him to stop haunting Li Weiwei. Chen Yidu stated that they had already broken up and asserted that Huo Xiao was simply useless for failing to capture Li Weiwei's heart himself. As Chen Yidu's 'big brother,' Mo Fan had a heart-to-heart talk with Tiffany.
He told her that, in his opinion, she was not only Chen Yidu's great help at work but also the best choice for his wife. Tiffany, distressed, said that unfortunately, A-du (Chen Yidu) didn't like her. Mo Fan explained that while A-du was capable in business, he was 'one-track-minded' in love. Since Huo Xiao and Li Weiwei's marriage was now a 'sure thing,' Mo Fan hoped Tiffany could help Chen Yidu and seize this excellent opportunity for emotional investment.
After Ling Long's wedding dress designs for Fang Yalun had been revised five times, Li Weiwei sharply pointed out that Fang Yalun was simply nitpicking, essentially because she didn't want to get married at all. True to form, Fang Yalun also found fault with the designs later delivered by D. U. Seizing the opportunity, Tiffany then announced that she was already Chen Yidu's girlfriend.
Chen Yidu, not wanting to embarrass her, didn't explicitly deny it, which made Tiffany quite pleased with herself. After work, Chen Yidu went to a small shop he used to frequent with Li Weiwei for egg fried rice, and Tiffany showed up uninvited. Li Weiwei, watching everything from a corner, felt deeply depressed. She then pulled Huo Xiao along to a skewer shop for drinks to drown her sorrows.
She asked Huo Xiao if he was the person she had loved before, acknowledging that although she couldn't recall his name or appearance, she still remembered his aura and warmth. She lamented her amnesia, hating that she forgot what she wanted to remember and couldn't forget what she wished to. Tiffany took advantage of Chen Yidu being drunk and taking him home to create the illusion that they were living together.
Seeing Li Weiwei leave in distress, Chen Yidu questioned Tiffany's intentions. Tiffany smugly replied that this arrangement benefited all four of them. Li Weiwei realized that Fang Yalun was not in love with her fiancé, but rather with her assistant. Therefore, no matter how she designed the wedding dress, Fang Yalun would never be satisfied. Li Weiwei decisively proposed that Ling Long would withdraw from this order. Upon hearing that Ling Long was out of the competition, Tiffany mistakenly believed that her public display of affection with Chen Yidu had worked.
