Ships keep passing

I Ling is waiting for You You at movies but he is held up. She kills time in karaoke machine and is found by cute pharmacy guy. They have the chat she should be having with You You. 😝 She gets another txt that You You can’t make it. While there, she see’s her ‘prince’ is Prince to all damsels in distress. While her prince is off his pedestal, her hubby is being gallant Prince for co worker. I hate this bit of drunken meetings for CEO to take advantage of female colleagues. It was a vehicle to get them in same cab, but it wasn’t a good look for either of them. She should have made excuse to leave early for son and avoided all this mess. The one thing I liked about this episode was I Ling cutting loose at karaoke after hubby said not gonna make it. I think this is the first time she has been her real self in a very long time. You You finally tells the truth so that his family will quit trying to ‘cure’ I Ling. He let her go through a lot before his spine strengthened enough to be of use for her. This gave his mom some time for reflection and we get her back story as a new mom. You You was sickly so she developed a rigid routine to keep him healthy and safe. But it did have consequences in how dependent he became staying in her home.The other thing that deserves mention is when ma-in-law actually listened to I Ling’s past travels and realized, even if only for that minute😝, how important it was for I Ling to have her own home. That it was something circumstances had always kept from her. I can only hope she feels a bit guilty at her depriving I Ling the freedom of her own home since married to her son. That was hopefully a moment of true clarity for her. You You gets in cab with co worker and passes out. She wakes him at her place and wants him to txt her when he gets home. As the cab starts to leave he circles back to her place.
