Love Is Sweet Episode 17

God how pathetic Du Lei is! He's come…

God how pathetic Du Lei is! He's come to stand like a lost puppy outside her apartment building? My god, is he 14 years old? Thank goodness she ran off to take care of YS and avoided even seeing him or she might have thrown up her breakfast. Loved her body-language running through the hospital! Why do so many modern c-dramas repeat the trope of "ML is a master cook but the FL is lousy at cooking"?? Still both of them are so good with each other that the scenes with the leads are great even when implementing a trope. Sadly the episode then devolves into some cheap situational comedy around Su Chang's relationship. Not terrible stuff. But not terribly funny either. It does lead to some great bits between the leads as they squabble over sharing her apartment. The fun thing now is we get a 'living together' plot trope! And the very, very end of the episode is pretty sweet. There are otherwise some more skippable minutes spent on the not-compelling Li Xiaochuan + Xu Li storyline.
