Sweet Dreams Episode 18 Recap
> Sweet Dreams Recap
Bo Hai managed to evade the numerous reporters surrounding him and finally returned to the lounge, only to find Ling Lingqi asleep on the sofa, looking exhausted. Bo Hai took off his jacket and carefully placed it over the sleeping Ling Lingqi, the posture ambiguous. This scene happened to be witnessed by Chen Mo, who, misinterpreting it, immediately turned away. Ling Lingqi was sent home by Bo Hai's driver Xiao Zhang and was coincidentally seen by her mother.
So, upon returning home, a groggy Ling Lingqi was pulled by her mother, who began asking her many questions. Chen Mo was surprised by Ling Lingqi's talent, and Bo Hai also dropped his usual man-eating plant demeanor and, with some difficulty, praised Ling Lingqi. Chen Mo urged Bo Hai to see a doctor, but Bo Hai said that his eyes had recovered.
Chen Mo was very surprised by Bo Hai's recovery speed and also noticed that Bo Hai's episodes were becoming shorter recently, believing it was related to Ling Lingqi's appearance. Bo Hai announced that Ling Lingqi would be transferred to the design department, officially becoming a florist. However, due to it being an exceptional promotion, it was opposed by Zhou Xinyan.
But as the CEO, Bo Hai naturally had the final say, so Zhou Xinyan could only return to her office to vent her anger. To comfort her, Chen Mo took out an oversized lollipop, which made Zhou Xinyan smile. Colleagues were discussing Ling Lingqi's rapid promotion, and inevitably, some negative comments arose, but Lu Baoni quickly shut them down. Bo Hai took some Polygonum multiflorum to see Wen Guangqi.
On the surface, he was showing concern for Wen Guangqi, but his words were full of provocation. Wen Guangqi realized that Bo Hai had already detected the mole in the company. After work, Mo Nan and Lu Baoni went home together, joking around when suddenly, it began to rain heavily. Mo Nan draped his clothes over both their heads, while Lu Baoni sheltered under Mo Nan's broad physique. The two ran towards home in the pouring rain.
After Lu Baoni arrived home, she watched Mo Nan leave. She realized she had different feelings for Mo Nan but quickly denied them. After all, Lu Baoni was a charmer; what kind of man couldn't she have? How could she fall for Mo Nan, who had neither talent nor money? Late at night, Bo Hai was making flowers for a customer of the Anxiety-Relief Flower Shop.
Chen Mo suddenly became interested when he learned it was a bouquet Bo Hai was giving to a friend. After looking at the flowers Bo Hai had prepared, he already understood in his heart that they were for Ling Lingqi. Bo Hai's hand was scratched by an orange rose symbolizing first love. Chen Mo teased him while helping him find a band-aid. The next day, Ling Lingqi came to the company to do her usual chores.
After Lu Baoni told Ling Lingqi about her promotion, Ling Lingqi was so happy she couldn't stop smiling. The next second, she sprinted to the reception room, where Bo Hai, who was still conducting business, was hugged by Ling Lingqi, who also made some particularly strange and cute gestures. Only when Bo Hai gestured that he still had a client did she calm down and turn to leave. Colleagues decorated Ling Lingqi's workstation, and several of them congratulated her.
Ling Lingqi also received a gift from Mo Nan. Mo Nan and Lu Baoni were happy about Ling Lingqi's promotion, and the two discussed going out to eat. Lu Baoni had very conflicting feelings about Mo Nan and thought it wouldn't be good to have dinner with him alone, so she pulled a passing Xiao Yi and invited him to dinner, leaving Mo Nan alone with a bewildered expression.
Ling Lingqi received flowers from the Anxiety-Relief Flower Shop, and the card also had two lines of encouraging words, clearly celebrating her promotion. But Ling Lingqi wondered, how did the Anxiety-Relief Flower Shop know about her promotion? Ling Lingqi saw some bloodstains on the roses, remembered seeing Bo Hai's finger injured that morning, and connected it to her promotion, already having the answer in her heart.
Bo Hai, who was processing documents in the office, immediately came to the glass flower room after receiving Ling Lingqi's text message, but he didn't expect that Ling Lingqi had already seen through his identity. Bo Hai could only beg her to keep it a secret. Ling Lingqi finally realized that Bo Hai had been helping her all along, but Bo Hai suppressed his excited feelings and proudly said that they were even. Ling Lingqi immediately bristled upon hearing this.
She had already imagined herself and Bo Hai as the male and female leads of an idol drama, and now it was clear they had entered an interaction mode after a misunderstanding was resolved. Seeing Ling Lingqi acting lovesick again, Bo Hai could only walk away speechless.
Ling Lingqi pulled Bo Hai, gazed affectionately at the man in front of her, saying how much Bo Hai had helped her, and that she had finally come to know the real Bo Hai through several months of interaction. The atmosphere between them was intense. Ling Lingqi thought Bo Hai would show some kind of reaction, but to her surprise, Bo Hai left as if escaping.
Lu Baoni stood Xiao Yi up; she just wanted to appear as if she didn't like Mo Nan in front of him, but ultimately, she couldn't deceive herself even if she could deceive others. Ling Lingqi and Lu Baoni, two girls troubled by love, sat together, each talking about their own problems without interfering with the other.
Lu Baoni had a serious lack of understanding of her own feelings; she thought she only liked Mo Nan because she had been single for too long, so she decided it was time to fall in love. Meanwhile, Ling Lingqi realized that Bo Hai was someone who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, cold on the surface but warm within.
All their previous conflicts and misunderstandings had been resolved, and she was once again infatuated with Bo Hai. But this infatuation was not a fan's adoration for an idol, but the true infatuation between lovers. When Lu Baoni heard that Ling Lingqi was going to pursue Bo Hai again, she immediately perked up and put aside her own feelings.
As Ling Lingqi's best friend and a charmer, she decided to be Ling Lingqi's consultant, but before they could even start, Ling Lingqi's stomach growled. Ling Lingqi went to the convenience store and playfully bickered with Mo Nan, then left in a hurry. Mo Nan looked at Ling Lingqi's departing back, feeling a little lonely.
Ji Bin believed that Mo Nan had fallen in love with Ling Lingqi, but someone like Mo Nan absolutely could not be tied down by emotions, so he always reminded Mo Nan. Mo Nan, however, said that he would handle his own emotional problems. Ling Lingqi was originally waiting for Lu Baoni to teach her tips on pursuing boys, but since Lu Baoni was still in a meeting, she had to search online herself.
The saying "To conquer a man's heart, you must first conquer his stomach" was already a surefire mantra, as no one is immune to the temptation of good food. Ling Lingqi, being a foodie, was determined to succeed in this aspect. In the flower room, Bo Hai, who was making bouquets, was experiencing a creative block. Ling Lingqi appeared at the right time to help him add some flowers, then suggested they have dinner together. Bo Hai coldly refused.
But just then, Bo Hai's stomach protested. . . So, after work, Bo Hai rejected Zhou Xinyan and went alone to Ling Lingqi's house for the dinner. Ling Lingqi gave her parents two movie tickets, sending them out of the house, secretly planning her private time with him tonight.
