Actually he is waiting for her. for a second in ep10 he is about to give in but she backed down again
coz she talked to both mom and dad, and both couldn't support her if she pursued her love. she's been traumatized enough by adopted mom to be abandoned if she misbehaves. like she said in ep10, she's not ready to lose everything if he's not going to reach out to her. meanwhile, she never knew how much he tried and what her family did (she keeps asking her family if she received letters while she was studying abroad) and song yan isn't telling her either.
It's often frustrating when mid-series, people are asking for "explanations" when you've got to trust the storytelling. And then there are those saying they fast forward scenes like how can you understand all the layers of the story if you're not going to watch it in its entirety then say you don't like it.
The award of weirdest drama of the year drama goes to... Durian's Affair. Weird characters, weird dialogues, weird…
the funniest part is how they are acting with such serious straight faces but funny lines. i would burst out laughing if it were me. the actors are such pros. i'm drawn in by this humor without being comedic.
