This was a magical episode for character development.

This was a magical episode for character development. So many deep and cute moments. However, the best part is that the serious and stoic Yi Ting rode on the back of the bike with Xin Yu peddling!! Holy awesome sauce. I loved everything to do with the bike scenes.

So there it is. Yi Ting actually did bump into Xin Yu in the past. To be honest I was waiting for it. Considering that he had sought out Lin Min before it seemed an obvious thing to happen. I like that Xin Yu saved him from being hit, even offering him a handkerchief to clean up. If you thing about it this episode kind of broke some gender role barriers.

In the last episode we saw how much Yi Ting understands Xin Yu. Now we get to see that Xin Yu really understands Yi Ting. She knows he doesn't like explaining himself and he doesn't like being seen as weak. Though if he would take the time to explain he wouldn't garner hate and that causes all kinds of problems of there own.

The biggest help is seeing Yi Ting warming up. Relaxing. It's wonderful. His enemy An Sheng even realizes he acts different in that bike moment. Qian Ren loves is brother and realizes that Xin Yu can change is brother. He wants is brother to be happy and he feels that she can do it. Normally I hate it when one of the love interests can so easily toss the girl aside. However, Qian Ren realizes his love for his brother is greater and he wants him to heal. (Oh, and that gave us the "so that's what it's like to push someone against a wall" moment!)

Also it shows us how wonderful Xin Yu is. Taking Qian Ren and Yi Ting's mom out for fun and her friend. Xin Yu may on the surface be what would seem an annoying characters, but the character depth explored makes her one of the most loveliest female leads I've had the pleasure to watch.

The Tourette's syndrome is still present and I like that there where real human moments when they were being chased for the kidnapping scheme. From the cell phone moment to Xin Yu's fantasy! (Ha-ha, best fantasy ever! Especially since Yi Ting was aware and adding feedback.)

I love that Zian Ren realizes he loves his brother enough to let the girl he loves go to him and heal him. Though I agree that Xin Yu and Qian Ren are too much alike. This was wonderful episode for revelations and character growth. This also highlights what a smooth player Xia Yue is for helping Yi Ting with Xi Yu. He really should have thanked her. (You know he secretly wanted to.)
