I May Love You Episode 1 Recap
> I May Love You Recap
The beautiful screenwriter Tang Xin of Time Shadows has secretly admired her handsome and wealthy boss Tang Yu for over four years. In order to win Tang Yu's favor, she has racked her brains and even used unconventional means. Upon learning that Tang Yu has developed feelings for her best friend, she deliberately uses herself as bait to help him pursue her friend. Tang Xin forms an alliance with Tang Yu, all with the aim of creating more opportunities to be with him. She plans to take advantage of her friend's rejection of Tang Yu, causing him emotional distress and presenting an opportunity for her to step in.
However, Tang Xin's idealistic plan takes an unexpected turn. Tang Yu turns out to be more resilient than she imagined, and she fails to seize this hard-earned chance. Tang Yu skillfully resolves a problem related to the relocation of a film and television base, showcasing his exceptional strategic thinking and leadership. Assistant Gao Heng offers some complimentary words, but Tang Yu criticizes him, advising him not to use such insincere flattery in the future. Gao Heng promptly adjusts his attitude.
Time Shadows is currently filming two movies, and one of them is caught in a legal battle due to allegations of copyright infringement. Tang Yu immediately demands a halt to the project, regardless of the previous investment. This is a matter of principle, and although Time Shadows is also a victim, Tang Yu is determined to take responsibility.
Tang Yu, a eligible bachelor, becomes a focal point of discussion among employees, especially with regards to his personal life. Rising star Zhou Jialu in the film industry intentionally creates rumors about a romantic relationship with Tang Yu to boost her own popularity. Tang Xin accurately identifies the issue and advises Tang Yu to have Zhou Jialu issue a statement to avoid any embarrassing situations. While in an elevator, Tang Xin provocatively sniffs around Tang Yu to check for the scent of another woman, making Tang Yu feel uneasy.
In an underground parking garage, Tang Xin falsely claims that her car is undergoing maintenance, and she dismisses Gao Heng. Tang Yu then assigns her the task of driving, surprising Tang Xin who intended to sit in the co-driver's seat but is treated as the chauffeur instead. Tang Yu, noticing Tang Xin's unfamiliarity with the car, leans in to help adjust her seat. The masculine aura emanating from Tang Yu leaves Tang Xin with a fluttering heart. As she drives, Tang Xin notices Gao Heng watching her and quickly changes direction to avoid being seen by Tang Yu, narrowly avoiding a car accident. She refocuses on her role as the driver.
Back at home, Tang Yu's younger sister Tang Dingding informs him that their parents are arguing because he is about to turn thirty and still hasn't found a girlfriend. They suspect his sexual orientation is the issue. Tang Yu convinces his mother by diverting the conversation to company stock matters, urging her not to always bring up his personal life. Meanwhile, Tang Xin is concerned that Gao Heng might reveal her lies to Tang Yu, so she bribes him with breakfast the next morning. However, Tang Yu misunderstands her intentions, thinking Tang Xin is pursuing Gao Heng, including their alliance.
The copyright for Tang Xin's novel, "Dreaming for You," purchased by Time Shadows four years ago, is about to expire. As discussions about renewal and adapting it into a film arise, Tang Xin faces skepticism. Despite the novel's well-written content, it falls into the fantasy romance genre, which is not Tang Yu's preference. Chief editor Chen believes the chances of renewal are slim, but Tang Xin still wants to fight for it, as it is her hard work and she doesn't want it to be buried.
To get closer to Tang Yu, Tang Xin invests in a gym membership and deliberately posts workout photos on her social media. This captures Tang Yu's attention, and they engage in rare interaction. Shortly after, Tang Yu surprises Tang Xin by appearing behind her. Taking advantage of a break, Tang Xin discusses her novel with him, proposing a condition: if she can write a satisfactory script, she wants Tang Yu to be the producer. Her motive is simply to create more opportunities to be with him.
