Dear Enemy Episode 11

Foreboding

As Man hugs MuSun after his request to define fulfilled commitment, she backed down but her look shows how empty she feels as her eyes sadden over his shoulder. KaiXi accidentally discovered a way to enterprise….cooking vlogs. Man and QingCheng help her make one and even Chen Mian reacts positively. He also offers suggestions which the young videographer doesn’t want to deal with because it requires too much effort. Man takes him aside and reminds him he’s not the only talent overlooked, but it is hard to say if this made enough of an impression for him to do the job he is capable of. KaiXi is out with a friend as their children are playing and gossip begins from the friend. KaiXi sees the writing in the wall for her as well getting kicked out with a small bag and Tiao with Nannie’s. Her fears are confirmed when he has the audacity to explain that because he only has ten years left he has no intention of depriving himself of anything. He promises to go back to being the dutiful husband after his ten year free pas🤬🙄 Even quiet tempered KaiXi asked him if he even heard himself. There is no point wasting more effort on this man. She needs to move on and soon. Man received similar foreboding when MuSun said leaving and wanted her away from his things while he was gone. To not even rate possession status was quite a blow. I wish these two would have talked about their men and how sad they were, but both accepted lamenting a futile effort. Man said would kill the mood, but it was killed before their conversation even started. Both of these women need to move on and know it, but there is a comfort in just accepting status quo with no fuss or muss to get through the day. KaiXi often grieves me with making Man her thinking part of brain. I don’t know why she thinks Man is so much smarter. And Man doesn’t use any of her research skills to see the truth of how happy KaiXi’s life really is. These two need much more than a spa day to deal with their red flags. Here QingCheng would have been a much needed ally and her past experiences would have resonated with her older friends. QingCheng grew up with a father red flag so she has more actual experience in dealing with the fallout. She has more reasonable expectations and she could have helped with the vlog and MuSun’s semantics. This is where the drama fails a bit because the three think and reason better together and this was a missed opportunity.
