Also, Xu Miyu's mother is so infuriating. I don't care what she knows about pastries. It can never make up for the fact that she did nothing to protect Miyu from her parasitic husband and his bloodsucking offspring.
Ngl, I think if it wasn't for plot armour Miyu wouldn't have a job anymore. This show frustrates me on a number of levels. First, it's spending way too much time with the skeezy ex's new wife for my taste. I came to watch Miyu take back her life not whatever the heck they're doing with LZZ. When they showed a flashback to LZZ's childhood I almost lost it.
Second, considering the fact that the chef is Miyu's only real friend at the hotel, they spend so little time even talking to each other, to the extent that she didn't even know Miyu was working there? Even when she went viral with the entire hotel staff? Ridiculous.
Finally, Miyu herself. It feels like some level of propaganda tbh, that one should just always be nice and take whatever abuse is thrown your way and everything will work out in the end. If she wasn't the main character in a cdrama she would have been homeless and jobless by now. Her people pleasing her way through management irks me cos in reality those losers on her team would never learn and would only keep taking advantage of her cos that's how human beings function. The fact that on her first day as forewoman she gave someone 5 days of leave ON THE SPOT nearly made me pull my hair out. Of course the plot plotted so it all worked out in the end.
I'll keep watching anyway cos I truly want to see Miyu's journey but I sense I will be frustrated for most of this.
Because Sui is a high ranking official, she would become a wanted criminal, they would not have peace anymore,…
Isn't he a rebel? They're literally fighting against Changxin and the Sui brothers, or am I missing something? Also, she doesn't even know who he is so I doubt that's why she didn't kill him.
My question remains, why didn't FCY just kill that Sui psycho when she had the chance? Everything else that followed would have happened the same. The bandits didn't even know she had people in the cellar. Ugh
Why would they even exile him? Was it to protect his son? Cos after what he did, he should've been executed on the spot. That's one part that annoys me now.
I get that ML seems to also be doing some undercover work or whatever, but considering their history, I really wish he'd just leave Ms Hong alone. Let her do her thing and he can keep an eye on her to make sure it doesn't clash with whatever he's doing, but constantly following up on her and then showing up at her dorm is just wild. This is someone you openly and quite unforgivably stabbed in the back. What exactly is he expecting from her now?
I don't think Albert is fully aware of what the guy at the car shop does for that woman, but I could be wrong.
Have to admit, I'm not a fan of the writers choosing to use the stadium accident as the main source of tension…
I actually felt the same way. Considering all the promises she made and extracted about facing everything together, it seemed so uncharacteristic for her to be angry at him for something that happened when he was a child. Even when she was telling him the story of the man who died, I wanted to say well his father ALSO died so what exactly is the lesson here?
She doesn't really want to trouble others, I believe. About the ex, I believe she didn't want to cause trouble…
I get the ex one to some extent, like I said. Like, as soon as his mother locked her in that room all bets should have been off even if she had reservations. In fact, as soon as she found out he was two-timing she should've snapped out of it. But lying to her parents knowing fully well that they tend to show up unannounced at her house is just a stupid lie for the sake of the plot. Then not telling her friend that that lousy guy threatened her AND the cafe, knowing that he is in a position to cause problems for her friend is just wild. Why hide the real reason for moving out? It makes no sense to me. That's her friend's business and only source of income. There's no excuse for that. It's a drama and everything is smoothed out quickly but it still irked me.
I'm still on ep 10 and I don't understand why Hu Xiu's first instinct is always to lie about things. She won't tell her parents she rented out her flat, she didn't want to say that jerk was her ex, she didn't tell her friend when that sleazebag threatened the cafe. What exactly is the point of keeping these things to herself? I get the one with the ex to some degree but why wouldn't she tell her friend that a predator is targeting her shop?
I like the drama but this part of the character just irks me.

Just made the final episodes underwhelming to me.
