Lady Liberty Episode 27

Relationships

Lin and HeHan riding in the car was a nice change of pace. Since he isn’t drunk, she can just converse rather than hover. They are relaxed and just enjoying the time together. This changes when her mother is taken to the hospital for a growth in her stomach. The dynamics of her parents are unusual. They are married but live apart which is probably why Lin thinks shared space and contact so important. Her dad stays until half an hr before her mom will wake and he turns the watch over to her. This puts her back in a sad pattern of what ifs. What was different this time is that HeHan caught them visiting. Her father is finally moving back home and while she is happy another part questions why now? Why not earlier when they could have been a real family. He Han is helping her dad move back in. He and Lin have their squabbles but they understand taking care of each other’s parents. This is common ground for them. While in the past she might have resented his looking to Dai for specialists, today she understands he is coming from a good place and simply says thank you. I like the quieter more thoughtful Lin. Ok, the one leaving is not the mole. It better be glasses guy cause I already have enough issues with Cai. She could be the one if she thought she was helping HeHan, but she is not a good liar for when they were shuffling authors around and her efforts were the first gone. Fan is just greasy in his dealings. He is so slimy and fake that your skin kinda crawls. He is badgering GuYan and making contract complaints for Lin. She knows it’s not GuYan but getting a word with him with the hospital shuffling she is now doing is difficult. For his part GuYan is loyal. But it’s going to be tempted as far as it can reach. I don’t want him solely with Fan’s company because I think his company is on the downward slope and it’s going to get hit hard and fast when others get arranged. Dai is gonna be on the other side smiling because she may have a soft spot for her ex, but she doesn’t like the way he does business. Zhao is almost grisly with her Joker’s smile in Lin’s office. She has every reason to think she has the upper hand and willing to exploit it to the fullest. She admits it to Lin’s face unapologetically and points out that the business needs both of them for very different reasons. The bottom line with this is if GuYan chooses to speak up or stay silent and the jury is still out. Mei is traveling down poor choice paths with mother and Bei. He wants her to find accoutrements for his new apartment and calls her to handle it. She offers to get pots and pans delivered. I am not sure what the deal is with her bestie delivering paperwork to her mother, but until she can deal with her mother directly, that albatross is going to hang around her neck for all it’s worth. I like the sober He Han that is considerate and dressed like a grownup. He has a softer side that is much nicer to see than the indulgent side that catered to fans. He is not subject to public opinion nor pressured to meet anybody’s schedule but his own. This guy is likable and capable of acting responsibly. I don’t want Fan to get his way on any front. He caused this mess and hurt a lot of people and still only sees dollar signs. He would betray them all if the price was right and doesn’t deserve to be on top when reshuffling happens. Gu Yan would be better treated with Zhao, but she is not the one that’s mentor material. She gets you the best deal as long as she gets her percentage. I really don’t want to see Mei’s mom, but I do want a resolution between mother and daughter where Mei gets real independence. Hoping this story will manage that since they’ve trashed her character otherwise. 😝 Waiting to see who leads the platform reshuffle and how the players fall in line once it happens. Also curious how GuYan vs SanSan plays out…..which is the better writer?😂
