Family issues

Jia Yu is a rockstar. Ya gotta love this kid. Ya En, who got kicked out of school defending a bullied boy, is married to a bully. Tbh, I didn’t see that one coming. She needs him gone asap. Kai has been obsessed with Ye Meng for so long that he has no clue how to backtrack with Ya En. Jia Yu is the only one that gets it and he is trying to help Kai out. He is truly the only grownup in the room.😝Kai’s eyes have been opened and he sees the impact of his rescue on her life. He plays back memories with better understanding. He is struggling that her choice to protect him resulted in a whole lot of negative decisions after. He did not know to speak up for her in school because he had always believed Ye Meng was his savior. Jin Yu’s little sis is on the cusp of adulthood. She loves her family but she wants to experience life in the big city and pave her own way. To do that she need 100k. She has borrowed 50k and tries to ‘borrow’ proprtuy deeds from her gma to get the rest of the money. She is caught by Jin Yu who isn’t having it and threatening police. She throws the ‘you’re not a real grandson’ in his face. Apparently this is family of stepdad. But I am still very unclear on his parentage. How is he the perfect donor and who is his father? Possibly sibling to his mother and killed? Is she reluctant aunt rather than biological mom? Did she claim him in name to have guardianship over donor? There is something weird here that money can cover up but it’s clear he is considered bastard child. I can reconcile her treatment of him better with her not being his biological mom. Ye Meng hiding last puzzle piece. That is such a pet peeve. She knows he was upset but pulling these silly mind games. He did tell her about not being blood related to gma, but did not enlighten her on crux of quarrel with little sister. Flashbacks show how much she loves him. But she is right at that age wher she wants her independence no matter the cost. I hope she finds an alternate way for the cash. Especially since this guy seems most like a scammer. Will have to wait and see how things pan out for all of them.

One step forward two steps back

This episode was a whole lot of childishness. Kai and Jin Yu make a scene with Dr Gao. It is not realistic that a doc would have wasted his time with all that and would have just left with the girls. Ya En’s husband needs to cut his losses. If he would be mature about being a father rather than try to trap his ex he might actually win her back. Kai is likeable but so incessant. He means well but just has no off button. He needs to have a real conversation with Ya En about why he was carrying a torch for Ye Meng , why that has changed, and what that day meant to him. She is the pretty girl’s friend so she has no clue what the real reason was. Jin Yu’s song was his way to tell her what happened and why his attitude changed. They are cute about the fish. Their steamy interlude released tension but them talking was the step forward. She is still testing him over nemesis girl. I am glad she got the whole story. She is more vague about her past relationships. They are making progress and he can joke about the doc now. The amusement park scene was cute after little girl was part of it. Having the boy be their chaperone wasn’t working for me. Ya don’t leave the child on his own. That girl’s mom has no ears for her. I hope that changes and we get to hear about it. She strikes a cord with her grim reaper because they both feel unwanted by their moms. It’s poignant and sad. Kai has potential if he gets a math tutor😂Jin Yu and Ye Meng are taking baby steps towards a relationship. I’m still waiting for the adult conversation between them. She is flippant with his feelings and he shuts down rather than speaks up when others judge him.
