Love's Ambition Episode 3 Reactions
I really like William Chen's character. So gentle and calm, like a soothing balm for the heart. He and ZL are brilliant together.

Xu Yan is never giving up, and sees every meeting as an opportunity. She manages to rope in powerful ladies into her show, and even Shen Haoming is impressed. Zhao Lusi waving gracefully with kunqu opera water sleeves is a delight : the art is not as easy as it appears to be.
This episode is more about upper class ladies and their hobbies: gossip, selecting expensive scarves, tennis, opera, and aided by trusted cooks, making signature dishes, such as Dongpo rou mouthwatering red pork meat cooked to melt with sweet flavors; but in her show, Xu Yan challenges them to make an Emperor's favorite simple dish of cabbage leaves salad, the Qiánlóng báicài, 乾隆白菜.
Now it's interesting that this dish never appeared in History records, but is linked to a Beijing chef who invented it in the 2000s! The drama has more layers in deception that initially presented and the actors gleefully roll with it !

You know XY will win this fight and marry into the family eventually; but dang this MIL is determined, clever and patient too. Both women are keeping things classy on the surface level but scheming hard underneath. But Is it really scheming if she is literally working her butt off and just going after what she wants faster and bolder than anyone else? Is what she wants all that unreasonable? I personally don't think so. You decide for yourself.
She does a graceful job matrixing around the entitlement and snobbery.
