Plans within plans

This episode has the banquet already over and XiGuang and Lin making plans. Once Uncle and Auntie give curfew, our new couple go out to see the city. They share their first kiss and end up at his place.😍🥰 He gives her the condensed version of his family history and how he got into medicine. His plotting uncles let him know right before deciding major what happened to his dad so he swapped from business to medicine. They had no clue how well he would shine there. Once his surgeon status was ended, he took his bitterness and tossed it into business. In this dark period, he was probably most like the plotters in his family keeping score and climbing the ranks. I am glad he has grown and matured away from this side of himself. He ended up at the branch XiGuang was working in and I don’t think that was on accident. He wanted to know her and made sure they were in close proximity. I like how Lin sees himself back in medicine. This seems to be where he is his truest self. He has even been approached by an old colleague to consider joining her team. It looks like a promising venture of bio ware that would combine his neurology training with his business acumen. It seems like a very good prospect for him. He is so sweet when he shows concern of not being such a standout in a new field. XiGuang looked him right in the eye and aid there is no doubt he would do well no matter what he did. When called in to see Gpa, he is offered Gpa’s shares in the company. Lin tries to bow out but Gpa isn’t giving him any options. He was let in on Lin’s plans to get back to medicine and just told Lin to use them as he saw fit no matter what he ended up choosing. We move from our sweet couple to the Uncle annoyed that his son has lost face. He then wakes Nie up to tattle about his scheming nephew and Nie’s daughter making their own plans for the company. He already has Nie plotting to help his son get a good bid for the project so he looks capable. It is the last attempt of the Gpa to give him a shot but I find myself annoyed he had to send him where Lin has been making progress. Now there is a nice band of saboteurs who will want him to look bad and sell off the company.😝 I can see Rong and that ass of a cousin trying to run the show now.😝 What was a pleasant surprise was the duo of cousins that looked like they would fit right in with Jiang Rui.😂🤣 There will be a good counter to all the plotting but I wish it would be smoother sailing for them. They had to have fake terminal gf make an appearance and even Nie isn’t falling for the scheme. He tells her to shut down the incense and to quit prattling.🤣😂 These two are definitely a match made in hell and I really want to watch them go down in flames together. Hopefully the rest of the plotters will follow suit.😝

even though this plot is moving along now,…

even though this plot is moving along now, it somehow feels sloth paced & kinda boring. maybe just me - idk - but after the revelation & everything else that happened in this ep, i aint left energized. i am bored & uninterested - which is a pity cause i still like Phi & want to see his come back. ********************************************************************************************1st off i don't get how Paul knew something that was only between Tam & Yong. 2ndly why didn't Yong mention the truth, that could be a reason for Tam's sudden break-up & disappearance?!? he had 4yrs to tell Phi the truth, he for sure had no problem blabbering about it to others - like Paul... & 3rdly if Phi was so bad or not ready to be in from of a camera. Tam resigning was enough to push Phi into the spotlight? what, there were no other interns in that TV station?!? or the country?!??? like plz with this b.s. plotline - *********************************************************************************************************************but i get Tam's decision & i am glad he deleted the initial text, cause that was b.s. - we all know that if he had stayed or told Phi about the real reason, Phi would've resented him as he was the one that had verbalized the dream to become famous & if Tam (who was more or an introvert) would achieve his goal 1st, it would've broken them up for sure. *********************************still if i was in Phi's place i couldn't forgive as i would be worried if there would be a next time. hard to trust someone who just ups & bails every time sh*t gets tough or complicated

Five Stars

Good that Yun Xiang did indeed manage to capture Qi TianFeng without bloodshed, per his promise to Shu YaNan. However, the interrogation of Qi was an exercise in dissembling by the latter. If you paid attention closely, Qi didn't reveal anything about the Luo family massacre that Yun Xiang didn't already know. He repeated already known facts and simply claimed he was a weak young itinerant who had nothing to do with it. He threw Tang out as the main villain, but Yun already knew Tang was involved. So this was clearly just a ploy by Qi to get Yun to take down Tang, since Qi is mad at Tang for paying off the pirate Guan. So none of that provided real new information to Yun. The only 'new' info was implication of a connection between Tang and the Yuntai's rival sect. Elsewhere in the episode, more minutes were wasted on Su Mingyu's pathetic can't-seem-to-ever-grow-up subplot. It's really painful to watch the writers portray a character as stupid and pathetic as they are making MingYu out to be.
