Why Is He Still Single Episode 11 Recap
> Why Is He Still Single Recap
Yu Yu arrived frantically, joining Gu Yejia in the urgent search for Dao. Gu Yejia suddenly spotted a shape in the water that looked like Dao, her eyes widening in alarm. Without a second thought, Yu Yu plunged into the pond, seeming to forget everything else in his determination to find the dog. Fortunately, it was just a toy dog. Yu Yu surfaced, letting out a sigh of relief.
They then noticed Dao calmly lying in the distance, watching their chaotic search with an innocent gaze. Gu Yejia thanked Yu Yu and told him to be careful as she left. Soon after, Xia Xiaoman was discharged from the hospital. Seeing that Dao had been well cared for, she felt a new sense of appreciation for Yu Yu, acknowledging that he could be dependable.
When Yu Yu saw Xia Xiaoman just out of the hospital and carrying a large package, he instinctively took the bag and joined her in the elevator. Later, Gu Yejia confessed to Xia Xiaoman that she had accidentally lost Dao a few days prior, and that Yu Yu had jumped into a pond to rescue what he thought was the dog. Xia Xiaoman wasn't angry, noting that Dao was safe.
She commented that she had always thought Yu Yu was self-centered, but someone who cares for pets must also know how to care for people. Xia Xiaoman's financial situation was already tight, and her hospital stay had left her even more so, as Yu Yu had covered her medical bills. To repay him, she had to take an advance on her next month's salary, leaving her with barely anything for the current month.
One evening, Yu Yu saw Xia Xiaoman in her yard, talking to Dao. She was expressing her worries about Dao's picky eating habits and her inability to afford expensive food, even suggesting Dao might need to go on a diet due to their financial struggles. Yu Yu, understanding her predicament, offered to buy dog food, but Xia Xiaoman, feeling embarrassed, quickly took Dao and left.
On another occasion, Xia Xiaoman asked to borrow some soy sauce from Yu Yu, explaining that her streaming service membership had auto-renewed and deducted 22 yuan, leaving her short on cash. Yu Yu initially chided her for her laziness, then gave her not just soy sauce, but a full selection of his condiments, including oil, salt, vinegar, chicken powder, and oyster sauce. He humorously reminded her of her promise to "return two for one," calling it an investment.
That night, Xia Xiaoman, feeling a touch of sadness while listening to music from Yu Yu's apartment, approached his door and asked if he wanted to own a car. Yu Yu, momentarily taken aback, began listing the drawbacks: the difficulty of finding parking, the high cost of ownership, and even the discomfort of wearing a helmet on his scooter, which he said pressed on his Yuzhen acupoint. Seeing his dismissive reaction, Xia Xiaoman left feeling dejected.
The next morning, Yu Yu appeared preoccupied. At the office, he sketched a car and tried to persuade Gu Yejia to buy it. Gu Yejia explained that she had no plans to buy a car, but her elderly father had recently purchased a new Harley, and she worried about him riding a heavy motorcycle at his age.
She then proposed a bet: if Yu Yu could convince her father to sell his Harley, she would buy a car for Xia Xiaoman. Yu Yu accepted the challenge and began regularly accompanying Gu Yejia's father on walks to persuade him. Yu Yu argued that a Harley was not suitable for a married man with a family, questioning where groceries would go or how his wife would stay dry during bad weather.
He also pointed out that individuals over 70 were restricted from riding heavy motorcycles, implying that her father was approaching that age, and suggested her father sell the bike to him. Gu Yejia's father, moved by Yu Yu's persistence, reluctantly agreed to transfer ownership of his beloved Harley to Yu Yu, but asked for a proper farewell ceremony.
The successful deal also led to another astonishing outcome: Yu Yu had inspired Gu Yejia's father to purchase five cars from Xia Xiaoman's dealership. Xia Xiaoman was overjoyed, feeling like she was on the verge of becoming wealthy, and declared she would treat her best friends to a lavish meal the following month. Gu Yejia received a phone call from her father, inviting her to his Harley farewell ceremony.
Suspecting her father might be trying to set her up on a blind date, Gu Yejia reluctantly agreed to attend and asked Xia Xiaoman to join her, framing it as a fun outing and an opportunity to solidify Xia Xiaoman's client relationship. At the ceremony, Yu Yu, Gu Yejia, and Xia Xiaoman were present. Gu Yejia's father's biker gang, known as "Steppenwolf," turned out to be a group of impressive and fit individuals.
As a playful initiation, they tackled Yu Yu to the ground. Later that evening, the old friends joyfully played music and celebrated. Gu Yejia's father was heartbroken to part with his cherished motorcycle but understood that age required him to let go of certain hobbies. Meanwhile, Xia Xiaoman happily dreamed of her five car sales. Gu Yejia acknowledged that Yu Yu had handled the situation remarkably well. Yu Yu invited Gu Yejia to watch the sunrise.
Gu Yejia commented on Yu Yu's often uninteresting conversation style as he began to lecture her on various methods to combat insomnia, such as counting sheep in one's head, consuming milk and bananas, using calculus problems to tire the brain, sleeping away from one's phone, practicing "eye-fighting" to induce brain glitches, and listening to white noise. Overwhelmed by his lengthy explanations, Gu Yejia eventually fell asleep on his shoulder.
Yu Yu patiently waited for her to wake up, enduring the numbness in his arm. When she awoke, she thanked him, saying she hadn't slept so peacefully in a long time. Yu Yu jokingly replied that she should indeed thank him, as half his body had gone numb, to which she retorted that he needed to exercise more.
The motorcycles from Gu Yejia's father and his friends were then sent to a motorcycle museum run by one of their friends, providing them with a dignified "retirement." Yu Yu was now considered the "Sixth Brother" of the Steppenwolf gang, though he found the new title "troublesome." Shen Wu later admired Yu Yu's new Harley, calling it "incredibly cool" and asking to ride it, but Yu Yu firmly refused.
Shen Wu also noted Yu Yu's old Vespa, observing that Yu Yu never rode it and treated it as a decorative collectible. Shen Wu then teased Yu Yu about his bikes having companions while he remained single, even speculating on what the "child" of a Vespa and a Harley would be named, much to Yu Yu's annoyance.
