The Oath of Love Episode 10 Recap
> The Oath of Love Recap
Lin Zhixiao originally thought she could use the free time in the morning to practice violin, but just as she got out of bed and hadn't even warmed the seat, Gu Wei called again. He said something had come up and they had to go see the houses right away—meaning now. After hanging up, Lin Zhixiao gritted her teeth but still composed herself, got ready, and went out. Gu Wei thoughtfully bought her breakfast, choosing her favorite flavor.
Then they visited about a dozen properties, but Gu Wei was dissatisfied with every one, finding faults constantly. Lin Zhixiao, who had done her homework and was even more knowledgeable than the agents, led Gu Wei and introduced each place. But his attitude tested her patience, and in frustration, she turned and walked away. Gu Wei ran after her, admitting he had been doing it on purpose.
If she promised to rest well and stop practicing, there wouldn't have been so much trouble. Hearing his concerned words, Lin Zhixiao calmed down, saying she had fallen too far behind and desperately wanted to catch up. But Gu Wei warned that rushing would only cause more harm—if she didn’t follow medical advice, her right hand might never recover, and the loss would be far greater.
Moved, Lin Zhixiao hesitated, then took Gu Wei to see the last property, trying hard to persuade him. Seeing the anticipation in her eyes, Gu Wei agreed to take it, even though the rent was far beyond what she expected. Gu Wei didn’t mind the price and was ready to sign the contract immediately. But Lin Zhixiao suddenly asked him to step aside, saying she wanted to talk to the agent alone.
Gu Wei didn’t go far and stood behind the door, eavesdropping. To his surprise, Lin Zhixiao lied that Gu Wei was her boyfriend and that they were about to get married to persuade the agent to lower the rent. Using her sharp tongue, Lin Zhixiao finally convinced the agent to contact the landlord and reduce the rent. Overjoyed, she thanked the agent—her hard work hadn’t been in vain.
The agent sent the lease to Gu Wei’s email, but it was seen by Gao Xi. With the lease settled, Lin Zhixiao and Gu Wei had resolved a major issue. Xiao Shan met with Lin Zhixiao and, seeing Gu Wei had dropped her off, became curious. After hearing about their interactions, she accurately concluded that Gu Wei liked Lin Zhixiao. Right then, Gu Wei messaged to invite Lin Zhixiao to sign the contract the next day.
Just as Lin Zhixiao was about to reply, Xiao Shan snatched the phone and responded for her, declining Gu Wei’s invitation and even added shy and heart emoji. Gu Wei stared at the message in a daze, recalling what Lin Zhixiao had said to the agent earlier. After hesitating, he called her. Lin Zhixiao readily agreed to meet, frustrating Xiao Shan. That night, Dr.
Du returned to the dorm and saw Gu Wei sitting alone smiling at his desk—a sight he had never seen, suspecting it was due to work stress. Meanwhile, Lin Zhixiao lay restless in bed, thinking about every moment spent with Gu Wei, blushing over Xiao Shan’s deduction yet worried it might just be wishful thinking. Xiao Shan met Gu Xiao at a bar and praised Gu Wei, trying to confirm he was indeed romantically inexperienced.
Gu Xiao thought Xiao Shan liked his cousin and warned her not to have any ideas. Xiao Shan, amused, clarified that she was just helping her best friend understand Gu Wei better. Dr. Du woke up to find Gu Wei still at his desk reading, not having rested all night. Meanwhile, Lin Zhixiao had just started breakfast when she received a message from Gu Wei. Her reaction was so unnatural that she excused herself to reply in private.
Based on his own experience, Lin Jianguo concluded his daughter had fallen for someone. While texting Gu Wei, Lin Zhixiao began to sense a budding romantic atmosphere, as if they were a couple in the early stages of love. Unbeknownst to her, Gu Wei was about to leave home when his mother called him back. Gao Xi had deliberately informed the Gu family parents after seeing the lease.
Gu Wei had no choice but to go home with his mother first and messaged Lin Zhixiao that he would be late, reminding her to be careful on the road. Lin Zhixiao happily headed to meet the agent but waited all day without seeing Gu Wei. In the end, the property was sold to someone else. Seeing the deal slip through her fingers, Lin Zhixiao was full of regret.
Meanwhile, Gu Wei’s father indirectly advised him to think twice about everything. But Gu Wei argued that moving out didn’t mean he was cutting ties with his parents—he was in his thirties and needed his own space and independence. Despite his father's firm opposition, Gu Wei remained unmoved. Ignoring the disapproval, he rushed to the agent's office and found Lin Zhixiao waiting anxiously at the door.
Gu Wei said they could still find another place and took her to eat hotpot. However, he began analyzing the ingredients from a medical perspective, especially animal organs. Lin Zhixiao, who had been hungry, lost her appetite completely. So she told him to close his eyes and gave him a bite of the so-called “animal organ” to taste.
