This week’s episode was surprisingly funny. In contrast to the intense attraction we’ve had from our two leads in the previous episodes, this one is where we start to see them genuinely enjoying each other’s company.

Favorite Scenes:

#1 How cute are our two leads here! By the way, I can vouch that those massages are killer. Mama Ninja likes to retell an experience where she went to Thailand on a vacation (back when she was young) and naively got a massage. Mama Ninja said it was so painful that she tried to run away but the massage therapist just pushed her back down.

This scene is quite meaningful because this is the first time Kehuan showed his vulnerability to Wei Wei and asked for her to comfort him simply as a friend. In turn, this is the first time Wei Wei has pull down her guard (at least for a little bit) and voluntarily spent time with Kehuan.

#2 Can’t help but love the scene where a drunk Wei Wei lists off all the reasons she dislikes Kehuan but really just exposing her true feelings which is why our hero’s eyes soften in tenderness and happiness with each reason she gives. I really wished Kehuan could’ve gotten a kiss here but it served him right to have Wei Wei’s bff step in to protect our heroine’s lips.

#3 Our hero’s eyes when Wei Wei took off her bra… I had to rewind to watch his expression again…and again.

#4 Kefei’s interaction with Bai Yang is always hilarious but I especially loved it when Kefei gets all furious in this scene not because Bai Yang dared to enter into her room but rather she was severely offended he could resist her enough to sleep on the floor.

#5 Anyone else as surprised as me when Kehuan walked out of Kefei’s room to confront 321? I liked this scene because it really showed Kehuan’s feelings for Wei Wei has grown to such an extent he can no longer be rational when it comes to her.

 

A few thoughts:

  • Going by 321’s obvious reluctance during his talk with Kefei in the last episode I thought for sure the storyline would make a big deal over whether or not he is going to quit. So it was pretty surprising when 321 all the sudden announced his engagement to Wei Wei and quits his job. My first reaction was “Wow, 321 is actually stepping up!” But then what followed soon had me changing my mind. What 321 did was nothing short of throwing Wei Wei under the bus while setting himself up as the good guy. 321 was leaving his job in a hurry obviously because he has found a brighter future elsewhere but instead of admitting his real reason for leaving his team in a lurch, he lets everyone believe he is sacrificing himself so Wei Wei could stay at the company. Seemingly completely unconcerned Wei Wei now has to face all the blame of HIS sudden departure, 321 instead has the guts to wonder why Wei Wei is not supportive of him?! I can’t see 321 purposefully hurting Wei Wei but it feels even more disturbing that he truly doesn’t seem to understand how selfish he is being.

  • Looks like the show is setting something up between 321 and his new boss. I am a bit torn by this particular twist. On one hand, I don’t feel like the show should/need to make 321 into a bad guy to justify our heroine’s change of heart. On the other hand, I am actually quite intrigued by what choice 321 would make.

  • This was a pivotal episode for our hero who has finally admitted both to himself and to Wei Wei that he likes her to the point that it was foolish he ever thought he could forget her. So why is our heroine still in denial? While I think Kefei and Bai Yang’s little hospital stunt made it difficult for our heroine to continue to lie to herself but it makes sense why Wei Wei is still trying to bury her head in the sand. When our two leads’ first met, Kehuan’s relationship with his girlfriend is already broken but that wasn’t the case for Wei Wei. There might have been a lot of problems with Wei Wei and 321’s relationship but most of the issues have been either ignored or have yet surfaced so in Wei Wei’s mind, she was perfectly happy with her boyfriend. Therefore, any sensible girl is going to think twice about throwing away a relationship she has put all her energy into for the last three years….especially if the alternative is a rich boy who is probably just out for a fling and will eventually marry his rich perfect girlfriend. (Bai Yang has already touched on the fact that marrying Ziyuan will obviously be much more helpful to Kehuan than an ordinary nobody like Wei Wei.)
