Sweet Teeth Episode 18 Recap
> Sweet Teeth Recap
Zeng Li didn't open the door and didn't answer the phone, and the same went for Wu Ying and Ma Yiyi's calls. Ai Jingchu quickly contacted Deng Haoran. Deng Haoran hung up the phone and asked Ma Yiyi what was going on. It turned out the three sisters were out having fun and wouldn't let him tell Ai Jingchu.
Deng Haoran met up with his ex-girlfriend to ask about Chris, who had struck up a conversation with Ma Yiyi that day, and was particularly interested in his relationship status. Dou Dou told Ai Jingchu that since none of the three of them were answering their phones, it meant they were definitely together and advised him not to worry too much. Ai Jingchu called Director Wang again.
Seeing that Director Wang also didn't know Zeng Li's whereabouts, he conveniently helped her ask for a few days off. Ai Jingchu started overthinking. Was Zeng Li scared by him, or was he too reckless yesterday? Actually, Zeng Li didn't bring her phone at all, and Wu Ying and Ma Yiyi were also deliberately not telling her. Liu Yucheng very helpfully sent Ai Jingchu the KTV address. Soon after, Ai Jingchu called.
Zeng Li was pacing anxiously next to the phone. Seeing Wu Ying and Deng Haoran mischievously planning to get Ai Jingchu drunk, Zeng Li quickly took the phone and arranged to meet him at Xue Nai's Tea next to the KTV. Ma Yiyi was silently jealous when she saw Deng Haoran contacting his ex-girlfriend. She accidentally found out he was asking about Chris's information and had a mischievous smile.
Deng Haoran honestly confessed that Chris was a rich second generation, capable, and didn't fool around, but he didn't forget to tell Ma Yiyi that they were not suitable. Deng Haoran and Ma Yiyi were bantering back and forth here, and accidentally mentioned Wu Ying's ex-boyfriend, causing a wave of jealousy from Liu Yucheng. Ai Jingchu and Zeng Li waited a long time but didn't see each other.
They accidentally found out there was another Xue Nai's Tea shop near the intersection, so Zeng Li rushed over. Amidst the noisy traffic, Ai Jingchu spotted Zeng Li by the road, and the two finally met on the pedestrian bridge. Zeng Li was out of breath and hadn't even had time to explain that she didn't deliberately not bring her phone before being covered by Ai Jingchu's kiss filled with longing. Ai Jingchu took out an old-fashioned phone.
Inside was a confession from Ai Jingchu: Zeng Li, I like you. Ai Jingchu confessed to Zeng Li using the story of Meijiazi. This was the ending he gave it. Zeng Li was moved to tears. Deng Haoran and Ma Yiyi parted ways at the intersection. He tried all sorts of ways to get her home. Ma Yiyi turned around with a bright smile and asked if he had fallen for her again.
Deng Haoran rushed over, picked her up and carried her on his shoulder, still pretending to be tough. Wu Ying told Liu Yucheng the story about her ex-boyfriend, how she almost dropped out of school and eloped for him. Actually, Wu Ying used to be very rebellious. Because she was born when her parents were older, everyone in the family doted on her. But just when Wu Ying almost eloped, her older brother died in a car accident.
Only then did Wu Ying mature, because she was her parents' only support. Liu Yucheng's mood was a bit complicated. Childishly, he asked Wu Ying for their theme song. The two rushed into the nearby crowd of square dancers, and just like that, they made that song their theme song. Wu Wanxia came to visit Zeng Li, and only then did Zeng Li realize that Ai Jingchu had requested leave for her.
Wu Wanxia hadn't even had time to gossip when Ai Jingchu's arrival confirmed her thoughts. Ai Jingchu affectionately and expertly cooked, and Wu Wanxia almost drooled. To avoid being a third wheel, Wu Wanxia awkwardly left. Ai Jingchu took Zeng Li's hand and came to the kitchen to cook together. Ai Jingchu was worried that Zeng Li couldn't chew because of her chin injury, so he made tofu for her to eat.
As Zeng Li listened to him describe how he couldn't find her yesterday despite trying, tears nearly fell. Zeng Li still called Ai Jingchu "Professor Ai," which made Ai Jingchu feel a bit awkward. So Zeng Li changed the address and called him "Sigui". Ai Jingchu became even more uncomfortable. Wu Ying unexpectedly met a child she used to play games with often. The child from back then had grown into a young man.
Wu Ying subconsciously let go of Liu Yucheng's hand. Afterwards, she caught up to explain, saying she felt like she was extending her "evil claws" towards Liu Yucheng. But Liu Yucheng didn't think so. Instead, he felt he wasn't good enough for Wu Ying, and was even afraid she would break up with him once the novelty wore off. Liu Yucheng proposed meeting Wu Ying's parents.
Wu Ying initially declined but suddenly decided on the spot to take him home this week. Yu Yi and Ai Jingchu went for a morning run together and recalled how they first met. Initially, they were just roommates. Although Ai Jingchu was younger, he didn't have many friends and his life schedule was terribly regular. It was Yu Yi who took the initiative, and only then did the two become good friends. The relationship between people is just that subtle.
Regarding Zeng Li, Yu Yi did miss out, but he sincerely wished her and Ai Jingchu well. Yu Yi decided to go to the Yancheng branch company. This time, he returned to the US to discuss this matter. Zeng Li and Ai Jingchu came together to see him off. Yu Yi told Zeng Li that Ai Jingchu is a very good person. When he likes someone, he will be fully devoted. The two of them are a very suitable pair. Before leaving, Yu Yi patted her head like he did when she was a child. He was still the enthusiastic, understanding younger maternal uncle in Zeng Li's memory.
