Sweet Dreams Episode 7 Recap
> Sweet Dreams Recap
The next day, Ling Lingqi was called to Bo Hai's house. Bo Hai laid out a long list of rules for being his assistant, which made Ling Lingqi's head spin. Ling Lingqi had a premonition that her upcoming career would be extremely fulfilling. The two arrived at the company. Zhou Xinyan was very displeased that Bo Hai brought Ling Lingqi along as his special assistant and wanted to transfer her to the marketing department.
Bo Hai's lips curled into a slight smile as he said he would personally train the simple-minded Ling Lingqi. Lu Baoni and Mo Nan were very surprised to see that Ling Lingqi had not only returned to the company but also became Bo Hai's special assistant. Many colleagues also criticized Ling Lingqi upon seeing her return to the company.
Ling Lingqi couldn't stand their gossip, so she boasted, blurting out that Bo Hai had begged her to come back to the company. Colleagues, Mo Nan, and Lu Baoni all fled upon hearing these words. Ling Lingqi was puzzled, then turned around to find a certain man-eating flower staring at her with a devouring gaze, and the atmosphere instantly froze.
With lives at stake (figuratively), Ling Lingqi, who had just been so brazen, instantly became a docile lamb, speaking humbly to Bo Hai. Bo Hai, this man-eating flower, of course, was not swayed by Ling Lingqi's softness. He kept Ling Lingqi in the flower shed and told her to memorize "The Compendium of Floral Materials" before leaving work.
Chen Mo was also very puzzled as to why Bo Hai would keep Ling Lingqi by his side; perhaps only Bo Hai himself knew the perverse pleasure behind it. At lunchtime, Lu Baoni was still surrounded by suitors, and many female colleagues were very displeased with her flirtatious behavior. So Mo Nan advised Lu Baoni not to always be ambiguous with others, saying that a direct refusal would prevent trouble. Lu Baoni scoffed.
Ling Lingqi was very grateful as she ate the bento box Mo Nan brought her. Mo Nan sensed that Ling Lingqi's sudden resignation and sudden return to the company were both related to her returning to the venue that night, but Ling Lingqi did not tell him the truth. Ling Lingqi, who had fallen asleep from memorizing, was slapped awake by Bo Hai.
Seeing that she couldn't recite it, Bo Hai gave her a small test, asking her to find flowers suitable for Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao. Ling Lingqi described the two heroes using calamus and winter sweet respectively, passing Bo Hai's test. After getting off work and returning home, Ling Lingqi received bird's nest soup from her mother. Ling Lingqi was very surprised, knowing that her previous treatment had always been expired canned food.
This time also did not disappoint Ling Lingqi; the bird's nest in the bowl was actually tremella. Because Ling Lingqi's mother heard that bird's nest could beautify and nourish, and in order for her daughter to find a wealthy husband sooner, the always stingy Ling Lingqi's mother chopped up tremella to pass it off as bird's nest. Fresh from her shower, Ling Lingqi saw a torrential downpour outside her window and immediately realized something was wrong.
On the rooftop upstairs, Mo Nan was hiding in a leaking room, questioning his life. Ling Lingqi and Mo Nan could only take shelter from the rain in a small makeshift tent on the rooftop. Suddenly, the power went out. Startled, Ling Lingqi instinctively clutched Mo Nan's neck, nearly choking him. Mo Nan and Ling Lingqi talked about interesting childhood memories.
When Ling Lingqi mentioned his father, Mo Nan said his father was no longer alive, and the atmosphere suddenly became sorrowful. Ling Lingqi was called back to her room to sleep by her mother. Remembering everything Bo Hai had done to her, she was furious, so she decided to put on her Good Dream Bracelet and go to her dream to settle scores with Bo Hai.
In her dream, Ling Lingqi lay beneath a giant stone, about to perform the "chest-crushing-stone" act with her acrobat partners. A hammer came down, yet Ling Lingqi was surprisingly unharmed. Just then, she saw Bo Hai, dressed in red, walk past the crowd and quickly chased after him. Bo Hai checked into an inn. Ling Lingqi disguised herself as a waiter to deliver hot water, seizing the opportunity to ambush him. The two fought fiercely in the room.
Ling Lingqi was no match for Bo Hai and was thrown into the bathtub. When she weakly asked Bo Hai for his name, Bo Hai claimed to be Zhan Zhao, and then pressed Ling Lingqi into the bathtub again, making her swallow a belly full of water. Unable to get revenge in her dream and instead being tormented, Ling Lingqi was very resentful. Even Chen Mo felt the killing aura emanating from Ling Lingqi.
In the following days, under Bo Hai's "meticulous training," Ling Lingqi had fully realized the terrifying nature of Bo Hai, the "man-eating flower." Mo Nan came up with an idea: Ling Lingqi should deliberately anger Bo Hai so that he would fire her, thus escaping Bo Hai's clutches without breaching the contract. Ling Lingqi suddenly had an epiphany and prepared for revenge. She took two lunches to Bo Hai's office; one of them was Bo Hai's extremely spicy lunch.
Unexpectedly, Bo Hai saw through it at a glance and swapped the two meals while Ling Lingqi was getting documents. Ling Lingqi only realized after eating the other bento box. In a fit of anger, she threatened Bo Hai that she would expose his use of a ghostwriter. However, the enemy was too cunning. Ling Lingqi was defeated, and the scene ended with the smug, devious big boss deducting the poor little assistant's bonus.
Walls have ears; the two's conversation was overheard by Wen Guangqi's informants. After learning that Bo Hai used a ghostwriter, Wen Guangqi decided to plan slowly for a fatal blow. During work, Lu Baoni received a package, but when she opened it, she found a bouquet of rotten flowers, and ink splattered all over her. Female colleagues who had long disliked Lu Baoni mocked her, and Ling Lingqi and Mo Nan were very worried about this.
Ling Lingqi once again went to sleep with the intention of tormenting Bo Hai. In her dream, Ling Lingqi was dressed in women's clothes with a veil over her face, walking down a corridor. A man in piercing service uniform gave her a bottle of medicine, then pushed Ling Lingqi into a private room. Bo Hai sat at a table drinking wine, while two dancers gracefully danced to the sound of a zither.
