Crush Episode 23 — Hindi Dubbed

Su Nianqin becomes increasingly concerned about Sang Wuyan's habit of speaking to Cheng Yin, her deceased friend. Realising that Wuyan may be struggling with unresolved grief and psychological distress, he consults a doctor for advice. The doctor explains that Wuyan herself does not deliberately avoid Nianqin, but the Cheng Yin she imagines seems wary of him. Since this imagined presence is less noticeable when Nianqin spends time alone with Wuyan, the doctor recommends that he offer her steady companionship and reassurance. Although professional intervention might reduce the symptoms more quickly, a cautious approach may avoid placing additional emotional pressure on her. Nianqin takes the advice seriously and becomes more attentive to Wuyan's emotional needs. He wants to help her move forward without making her feel that something is wrong with her. Their relationship remains affectionate, although his growing protectiveness sometimes makes him seem unusually clingy. Wuyan occasionally teases him about his behaviour, but she also appreciates his efforts to understand her feelings and stay close when she needs support. Meanwhile, Yu Weilan contacts Wuyan and speaks honestly about her complicated relationship with Nianqin. She admits that she and Nianqin once had a difficult relationship and that his painful family experiences left him emotionally closed off. Before meeting Wuyan, he struggled to trust others and believed he was incapable of experiencing a normal romantic relationship. Wuyan's love gradually helped him overcome those fears and discover a happier side of himself. Weilan hopes Wuyan will marry him without worrying about the family's past conflicts and invites her to visit the Su family home. Wuyan agrees to accompany Nianqin to visit his father. She feels nervous about meeting his family, uncertain about how they will receive her after everything that happened in the past. Nianqin reassures her that his father will be welcoming, although his attempt to calm her only makes her more anxious. When they arrive, Xiaolu shows Wuyan the piano that belonged to Nianqin's late mother. The instrument holds deep emotional significance for him, reminding him of the family history and painful memories he has carried for years. Nianqin speaks with his father about his future plans and says that he intends to marry Wuyan after she completes her graduate studies. His father is pleased that his son has found someone willing to build a life with him, although he also makes it clear that Wuyan must make the decision freely. Weilan is delighted by the news and begins thinking about the wedding preparations. The visit marks an important step toward healing the family relationships that once stood between Nianqin and Wuyan. Wuyan encourages Nianqin to return to music. She knows that his work managing the family business has consumed much of his time, but she does not want him to abandon the creative side of himself that first connected them. Sitting together at the piano, they play music and share a peaceful moment. Wuyan asks him to write songs again, reminding him that professional responsibility and personal passion do not have to be mutually exclusive. Nianqin is moved by her encouragement and begins considering how music can once again become part of his life. Wuyan also continues to process her grief over Cheng Yin. One evening, she watches the film *A Beautiful Mind*, which portrays a man living with delusions. She wants to tell Nianqin about the story but becomes emotional when discussing friendship and loss, unable to continue. Nianqin later researches the film to better understand what she experienced. Learning about the protagonist's struggle helps him view Wuyan's condition with greater understanding rather than fear. He realises that patience, empathy, and companionship are essential as she works through her grief. Time passes, and Wuyan completes her graduate studies. Nianqin attends her graduation ceremony alongside her mother and takes photographs of them together. When male students approach Wuyan to congratulate her and request photographs, Nianqin becomes visibly jealous. He playfully declares his relationship with her, referring to her as his future wife and her mother as his mother-in-law. Wuyan's mother is initially surprised by his confidence, but she is pleased to learn that he intends to marry her daughter after graduation. She makes it clear that Wuyan's wishes must remain the priority. After the ceremony, Wuyan visits a wedding-planning studio to make arrangements for the upcoming marriage. There she encounters Peng Ruixing, who jokes that if she changes her mind about marrying Nianqin, he is available as a backup. Wuyan is amused by his teasing but remains committed to Nianqin. When she returns home, she tells Nianqin that she wants to buy him a pink shirt so she can prove that he looks just as good as Peng Ruixing. Nianqin reminds her that she has already bought him one, revealing that he has kept the thoughtful gift. Nianqin also gives Wuyan a handwritten marriage agreement. He asks her to sign it and keep it safely, explaining playfully that she can use it to hold him accountable in the future. The document reflects his desire to make their commitment meaningful and lasting. Although Wuyan jokes about his serious approach to marriage, she is touched by the sincerity behind his gesture. The night before the wedding, Nianqin returns to the Su family ancestral home in accordance with family tradition. Separated from him on the eve of their marriage, Wuyan finds it difficult to sleep. She messages him, and he immediately calls her. They talk quietly over the phone until both fall asleep, comforted by the sound of each other's voices. Their conversation shows that even as they prepare for marriage, they still experience the same longing and nervousness that marked the beginning of their relationship. On the morning of the wedding, Wuyan's mother struggles to wake her because she is reluctant to leave her bed. Nianqin is still connected to the call and hears her mother's complaints, joking that Wuyan should be allowed to sleep a little longer. Wuyan suddenly realises that the call has not ended and becomes embarrassed. Eventually, she gets ready for the ceremony and prepares to marry the man she has loved through years of happiness, separation, and reconciliation. At the wedding, Wuyan walks toward Nianqin with her eyes closed. As she approaches him, she remembers their first meeting and the many moments that brought them together. Nianqin looks at his bride with gratitude, overwhelmed that she has chosen to love him despite his past and the challenges they have faced. Their ceremony marks the culmination of their long journey toward a shared future. After the ceremony, Wuyan gives her bouquet to Nie Xi, then joins Nianqin as they run away together, celebrating their new beginning. Married life begins with a small ritual that matters deeply to Nianqin. Every evening, when he returns home from work, he rings the doorbell and waits for Wuyan to open the door. He wants to be welcomed by his wife, embraced, and reminded that he has a home where he belongs. At first, Wuyan does not understand why he insists on following this routine. She leaves the door unlocked so he can enter by himself, but Nianqin still rings the bell and waits. When she eventually leaves the door open, he continues to stand outside until she comes to greet him. Wuyan complains about his stubborn behaviour to Xiaolu, who explains that the ritual is Nianqin's way of expressing how important she is to him. The ring, the marriage agreement, and the daily greeting all represent his need for reassurance that their marriage is secure and that he holds a special place in her heart. Understanding this, Wuyan begins to see that what seems like an unnecessary habit is actually his way of expressing love and belonging. Episode 23 brings Wuyan and Nianqin's romantic journey to a joyful milestone. Their wedding fulfils the promise they made to each other, while their first days as a married couple reveal the small rituals and emotional reassurance that will shape their life together. At the same time, Nianqin's growing understanding of Wuyan's grief shows that their marriage will require not only romance but also patience, compassion, and mutual support.
