Falling into Your Smile Episode 8

So disappointed in the writers of this episode

Unbelievable. So the truth comes out about what happened with Lu Yue and God Ming. And the result in the story is that everybody forgives Lu Yue and some even say, "I'm sorry.", to him. And everybody acts like it's all fine now and they can accept him back on the team. But this is absolutely absurd. Regardless of the threats that the JK team made, Lu Yue still did two things that were completely unforgivable. First, he arrogantly goaded the other team on by drinking a huge bucket of booze as a faux "toast". This got him stupid smashed drunk. And then, upon overhearing their talk, HE TRIED TO MURDER BROTHER A BY HITTING HIM IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH A WISKEY BOTTLE. This is a serious, serious stupid dangerous thing to have done. It is assault with a dangerous weapon, battery and attempted murder. So what if he was rightfully angered by their threats. None of that justifies what he did. And it is absolutely disgusting that the show writers are whitewashing this in order to get his character 'accepted back onto the team' in order to have his 'bad boy character' competing with Tong Yao for the mid-lan chair. It's so disappointing because all of what the writers wanted to achieve could have been done with more intelligent writing. For example if he just drunkenly tried to grab/confront Brother A and if THAT started the fight that God Ming got hurt in, then forgiving him would make a little more sense. But by adding in the stupidly dramatic but insanely dangerous act of him smashing the bottle on Brother A's head from behind, this ultimate outcome - the behavior by everyone to just pat each other on the back as they relish his 'redemption' is just sickeningly stupid. It makes the characters morally broken. I'm so, so disappointed in the writers for this crap.
