Crush Episode 18 — Hindi Dubbed

Three years after separating from Su Nianqin, Sang Wuyan is still struggling to move on. Nianqin has returned to her life as a successful businessman after regaining his eyesight, but neither of them knows how to approach the feelings they have kept buried. Although Wuyan tries to convince herself that their unexpected reunion means nothing, Nianqin continues to watch over her from a distance. After acquiring TORO, Nianqin visits the company and inspects its workplace. Wei Hao, who now works there, is surprised to discover that the once-reserved songwriter has become the company's new owner. Wei Hao speaks with Nianqin and tells him that Wuyan has not had an easy life over the past three years. Nianqin already knows more than he admits, having continued to follow her life and listen to her radio programme. Later, Nianqin sees Wuyan waiting for a taxi beside the road. He asks his driver to follow her car and quietly watches until she reaches her residence. He notices that she is walking through a dimly lit area and worries because he remembers how easily she becomes frightened in the dark. Although he does not approach her, his actions reveal that his concern for her has not faded. Wuyan continues her work with Xiaojie at the autism research centre. When she takes the boy out to eat, she unexpectedly meets Wu Yu, the man she previously met on a blind date. Wu Yu kindly offers them a ride and joins them for a meal. During their conversation, he notices the watch Wuyan is wearing and explains that it is a valuable, handcrafted model that is difficult to purchase locally. Wuyan is astonished because she had assumed it was an inexpensive imitation. The revelation makes her realise that the watch Nianqin gave her carries much greater value than she understood, and she begins wondering whether she should return it. Meanwhile, Xu Qian prepares to undergo laser eye surgery. Before the procedure, she asks Wuyan to accompany her and encourages her to talk to Nianqin honestly rather than remain trapped in unresolved feelings. Xu Qian believes that a direct conversation could help Wuyan understand what happened between them and decide whether she can finally move forward. Wuyan reluctantly agrees to consider it. Wei Hao also tells Wuyan that he previously spoke to Nianqin about how difficult her life has been since their separation. Wuyan is upset that Wei Hao discussed her private circumstances without her permission. She does not want Nianqin to pity her or believe that she needs his sympathy. Although she understands that Wei Hao was trying to help, the conversation makes her uncomfortable because she wants any future decision between herself and Nianqin to come from genuine understanding rather than guilt. Xu Qian's surgery goes well. Watching her friend face the procedure prompts Wuyan to think more deeply about Nianqin's experience of living with impaired vision. At home, she puts on an eye mask and tries to move around without seeing. The exercise quickly proves difficult, and she bumps into things before giving up. The experience helps her recognise how little she understood the practical challenges Nianqin faced when they were together, and she begins to regret some of her past impatience and thoughtless behaviour. Wuyan discusses these feelings with Cheng Yin. Her friend reminds her that Nianqin also suffered during their three years apart. His pride and confident exterior hide a deep insecurity, shaped by his difficult childhood and complicated family relationships. Cheng Yin encourages Wuyan to stop guessing what Nianqin thinks and instead speak to him directly. Realising that she still cannot let go of their relationship, Wuyan takes out his business card and calls him. Nianqin is occupied with a business meeting when Wuyan calls, so his secretary, Xiao Qin, answers. After learning that she wants to see Nianqin, Xiao Qin gives her the hotel's address and room information. Wuyan travels to the hotel and waits in the study while Nianqin finishes his meeting. As the hours pass, she becomes sleepy and eventually falls asleep on the sofa. When Nianqin returns, he is surprised to find Wuyan waiting for him. Seeing her sleeping uncomfortably, he gently carries her to the bed. He looks at her face and, unable to resist his feelings, kisses her while she is asleep. When he tries to kiss her again, she unconsciously pushes him away. Embarrassed by his own behaviour, he goes to the bathroom to compose himself before leaving for a business dinner. Wuyan wakes up later and sees a watch on the bathroom counter. Assuming it is her own, she puts it on and leaves the hotel without seeing Nianqin. He has arranged to bring food back for her, but when he returns, she is gone. He notices that the watch he has worn for years is missing and that the watch he once gave Wuyan has been left behind. He assumes she came only to return his gift and make it clear that she wants to end their connection permanently. Unable to ignore the situation, Nianqin calls Wuyan and asks why she came to see him. Their conversation quickly becomes emotional. Wuyan asks when he plans to invite her to his wedding, pretending that she is prepared to see him marry someone else. Nianqin is angered by the question and asks whether she truly wants him to marry another woman. Caught off guard, Wuyan admits that she does not want that to happen. Her answer gives Nianqin hope that she still has feelings for him, and he invites her to meet him for a meal. When they meet, the atmosphere is awkward at first. Wuyan apologises for the hurtful things she said during their breakup, admitting that anger and pain made her speak impulsively. Nianqin accepts her apology, and the conversation opens a small door toward reconciliation. Neither is ready to erase the past, but both begin to acknowledge that their feelings have survived the separation. Episode 18 ends with Wuyan and Nianqin finally speaking honestly after three years of silence. The valuable watch, Wuyan's attempt to understand life without sight, and her decision to apologise all show that she is beginning to see their old relationship from Nianqin's perspective. Their reunion remains uncertain, but the emotional distance between them has started to narrow.
