Love Is Sweet Episode 15

Just use the 'skip' button a lot to get through this one.

Episode just barely starts and I'm already agitated and irritated. The idea that her 'friends' basically trick FL into going on a hiking / camping trip without warning is just insane, given her special health risks. And that's not even accounting for the fact that creepy stalker Du Lei is there and Yuan Shuai has no idea where they are. My god this event is already pushing so many buttons to make viewers triggered. Thank god Yuan Shuai found out about it and reeled everyone back before it became an overnight. And man, Liu Yan Xi was totally channeling his Till The End of the Moon role of Devil Lord Tantai Jin as he sat on the couch in his apartment in the half-dark when Li Xiaochuan walked in trembling! LOL! That scene saved the episode! Otherwise, this episode spends far too much time trying to sell Du Lei as somehow sympathetic and a worthy 'other love interest'. He's not. He's objectively a terrible person based on the things he has done. And we also find out that HE was involved in driving her father to his death! Far too much screen time spent dwelling on his sad-sack, I-feel-sorry-for-myself face. This episode requires constant use of the 'skip' button. Just skip to the final nice scene between the two leads at the end.
