Shine on Me Episode 11

Intermission and wedding part two

Lin and XiGuang are adorable in the arcade.🥰🤣 Lin scores points with the girl in movie line but loses points with the guy for breaking the bro code.😂🤣This couple is also a cute aside as they watch Lin and XiGuang. She falls asleep because it’s been a very long day. He is filling her in on the points of the movie when the gal from other couple compliments him on his multitasking skills.😂 XiGuang is determined to get that scenic view so Lin takes her to a quiet top tier place with a gorgeous view of the city. I love his banter with her about getting to boss her around while on her payroll. They have another “plot twist” when he has to go with her to police station to get a temp ID card. His concern that she stays safe and well in her room so his reputation stays intact.🤣😝 Xu and friend are drinking at a local bar. Rong’s friend has finally agreed to accept his gf’s confession and they are officially a pair. What is disheartening about the conversation is he asks Xu if true love is left for the handsome guys like him, He is rather ambivalent about his relationship and implies she is the one due to lack of better option. He feels she is doing the same.😝I’m hoping these two wait a long time before getting married. Xu is drinking a lot regularly. He is quiet but unhappy. This is becoming a negative habit for him when not working. He is rather sullen and killing time til he can go back to work. Lin is all rise and shine for breakfast. He greets her sweetly and then teases her all through breakfast. His comment is he could only be more handsome by upgrading car.😂🤣 They make it in and both present gifts to her friend. This is one of the few friends I liked for her. At the table Rong makes an appearance and starts in on how inferior XiGuang’s and Lin’s positions must be in the company. Lin grins when XiGuang sets her straight using family ties to make point of where her strengths are. I like when Lin tells her she nudged back with enough force to put Rong in place but stopped there. It is nice to see XiGuang standing up for herself. Her friend that is settling for best option then makes a catty remark about staying overnight in Shanghai. Lin puts that down and makes it clear everything was done with propriety. Then XiGuang’s low EQ friend wants to know why a doctor isn’t practicing medicine. Lin gave her permission explain but she tries to justify it as multiple interests. The wedding couple comes over to toast and wine is spilled on XiGuang. I am grieved that XiGuang still shows interest in Xu, but have to grin that Lin retaliates with the big piece of fat because she was so focused he just grabbed whatever bite for her.🤣😂 she serves him soup and low EQ friend amuses Lin by getting served too.🤣😂 The wedding couple come over for a toast and Xu spills wine on XiGuang. I am waiting to see how it is handled because of course this is where episode ends.😝

ML protection mode: activated

Episode 11 really lives up to its “letting go” moment — and honestly, I think I’m a little in love with the ML. Watching him step in and protect the FL from both the SML and SFL was deeply satisfying. Especially when the FL has spent most of the drama letting people walk all over her just to keep the peace.The SFL continues to be… loud and unfiltered, saying whatever she wants with zero concern for who she hurts, and it was refreshing to see that behaviour no longer rewarded. Even better, the FL is finally becoming less clueless and less fixated on the SML, who — let’s be honest — never confessed his feelings, stayed ambiguous with his actions, and then got annoyed when she started to move on.And move on she should. She’s smiling more, growing into herself, and it genuinely feels like a turning point. If this is the direction we’re heading, I’m very much seated.
