Childhood memories

Gma decides to go for the surgery and her family isn’t happy about her choice. Jin Yu stands by her decision. His mom visited. They had words and she reminds gma who her real grandson is and how her son died. Gma angrily tossed her out of the room. What was surprising was the fact that stone cold hateful mother had true affection for her. She wants her mother in law to have that affection for her grandson by blood. There is true sadness that Gma envelops the son she hates and ignores the son she loves. We get more backstory in this episode. Jin Yu has so much guilt that he was driving and that stepdad died saving him. His mother never let him forget he killed her husband and made his life hell at every opportunity. He had given up and was trying to take his life when that little old woman literally dragged him out of the pool and saved him. She took him to her home where he was quiet and distrustful. He found her packing his clothes so he left. She chased him down and clobbered him. She had a house built for him so he would know he always had a home. 😭🥰 They have been inseparable ever since. He cares for her like a son and she loves him like a son. She decides before surgery she wants to eat the food of her childhood and takes Ye Meng and Jin Yu to her childhood home. They spend a lot of time picking tea leaves and she cooks her favorite childhood foods. Jin Yu is most honest saying he could cook her a better meal, but the women declare it a feast. Later, both of them on phone looking for takeout😂Jin Yu cooks for them and leaves them to their late night snacking.😂 There is a poignant scene where he comes across his gma’s diary and reads it. She is wanting to live long enough to see them married. It records her time with him good and bad and is a declaration of love. So…he decides to fulfill her wish and have a wedding for Ye Meng. She pretends to be annoyed he read her diary and agrees to keep Ye Meng occupied while he gets everything ready. She comes home to find family and friends gathered in a beautifully arranged wedding venue. What is remarkable are the Gma’s hovering over Ye Meng’s baby pictures and her gma promising to fill her a book of them together. They are chatting over makeup and acting like best friends. The wall between their homes will be torn down and one happy family residence. This episode, the leads feel like a couple, enveloping their family and being enveloped by them. Accepting each other for who they are rather than who they wished they were. It is a slice of life where the unconditional love of family shines through. For all my unhappiness with how writer has written the leads’ roles, this time, they did it right, and it was beautifully done. Thank you ❤️

everyone finds Hua Yong antic's = manipulation…

everyone finds Hua Yong antic's = manipulation & gaslighting entertaining - personally, not so much. Sheng is a green flag but this is what destroys "green flags" when they come across people that take advantage of their warm, kind & giving heart. when they find out it was all a lie & pure manipulation. they turn jaded & bitter, not ready to open up or give anyone else a chance ever again. ****************************************************************************************************************************so what is the end goal for Hua Yong?!? he is playing with Sheng emotions & his hormones r even being effected, draining him even sending him into heat. if Hua Yong really loves Sheng, him making a joke of his feelings & playing him like this - how will Sheng feel when he finds out? be grateful? happy??? i personally am getting tired of Hua Yong games. ****************************like i am getting tired of how Guo can't break free of Shen, when he finally signed the resignation letter i rejoiced - but it was short lived...ugh! & this the 1st ep where we saw that Shen does have a soft spot for Guo in his heart - he isn't capable of showing it. but he does - & yet this doesn't make me want Guo to keep fighting sacrificing his well being just to be around Shen - sorry. Gup needs to start taking care of his own self & maybe the distance will make Shen realize how important Guo is to him. but that not gonna happen.... aish

So many expectations, so much talk about that…

So many expectations, so much talk about that couple, as if they were going to win an Oscar. And a completely average story, weak acting, even below average, I still can't find a serious actor for my new movie.Everyone is delighted and rated 10 and it will be an even better series, each one is the best for you or will be the best. I don't see why rating something that currently has no plot, no action, we didn't see anything in 58 minutes except that 55 years ago there was corruption and bribery and that conglomerates always have the main say in everything. No dynamics, no excitement, bad acting, I'm not a fan and I can't say it's more than 4 for production, acting, director....
