Ye Li rescues Guo Jin from a bird that was trapped in her room. They ended up having a chat where Guo Jin wants Ye Li’s opinion of her guilt or innocence in certain matters. Ye Li answers truthfully and candidly. She acknowledged the good things Guo Jin’s reign had accomplished. She also made it plain that choices had consequences and even acts of merit does not outweigh human suffering and loss. Merit vs failings is not always a good judgment weight scale. Corruption and abuse of power also needed weighed in when considering the welfare of the people. She must have passed Guo Jin’s loyalty test because she was allowed to return home the next day. Ning actually finds JingLi and they are in his mother’s hometown. She wants him to not go to battle but for them to settle there and live a happy peaceful life. He tells her what a calculating person he had always been and that the fire in the East Palace that killed his father waylaid all his plans. He has her hauled away and trampled the flowers she’d shown him. He can’t make it plainer he will not divert from his path nor relinquish his obsession with Ye Li. Prince Ding has been successful in routing out JingLi’s men and closing in on JingLi’s location. Duo has killed himself to avoid prosecution and JingLi has sped up his plans for the capital. Under the guise of the lantern festival, they are going to return the favor of fire. He has people positioned in the city with his master map maker outlining the best areas to wreak havoc and panic with the people. They plan to poison the guards so the gate will remain locked preventing Prince Ding entrance to assist with the capital’ s destruction. Jingli plans to go right to the palace and personally take care of Guo Jin and her son. The emperor has a good chat with the duke where he questions his fitness to rule. The duke tells him that very questioning is what make his a good ruler. He encourages the youth to make good use of the wise and capable ones in his court. He refers him to Prince Ding and official Gu. We can only hope he chooses to not repeat the wrongs of his mother. The city that had been criticizing Prince Ding and accusing him of being a traitor now sing his praises to high heaven. Everybody is looking forward to their victorious return in four days. Jingli plans to attack on day three. The city is not aware of the fires just yet and fortunately Ye Li knows something is off and sending the family home. Preview shows that she and JingLi will have a battle of swords. I just want them to have the gate accessible so help can arrive.

Princess Li now knows JingLi is alive and is determined to see him, it is unclear why she is so devoted to him, but she is even knowing that she and Ye Li’s husbands are on opposite sides in this battle. Ye Li tried to dissuade her but stubbornness runs deep in Ye women. They hug each other goodbye and both take their respective paths. The court is led by the old and the cowardly so there is not a strong military presence there. It is best argued to keep them in one force to save on supplies and be at highest strength, but there is dissension worrying that Prince Ding having military might could easily join forces with JingLi and defeat the young Emperor. Once Prince Ding was healed that could have been accomplished long ago had that been the objective. 😝The emperor is making decent headway in his own decisions, but he is still honestly just a kid that understands the theory of war and strategy but no practical life experience as to the realities of the theories. His mother has returned and the Duke had a meeting with her about Lishan. He point blank asks her if she set up Lishan to die with her troops and mysterious outbreak. She denies it and points to him as being the last visitor there. Whether or not she personally handled Lishan, the Marquis was given cart blanche to handle perceived enemies to the throne as he saw fit. She even told her son that’s how she handled things in her youth. Not considering the consequences until later in life and then wondering if worth the cost. The Duke sounds like he is at death’s door and is encouraged to go home and not worry about court proceedings. They both become aware that the emperor heard their conversation. He still doesn’t completely trust Prince Ding. This is more due to his bias from long standing falsehoods about what happened with edict. He now has to wade thru the murky waters left in the wake of his mother’s and Marquis’ scorched earth approach to kill first and ask questions later. Unfortunately there is no good counsel for him because the reliable sources are old and infirm or silenced by death. Guo Jin takes matters into her own hands by ‘asking Ye Li to come stay at the palace. Her letter to Prince Ding lets him know what’s been happening at the capital, They have a beautiful way of reading between the lines to get to the heart of the matter. He knows his wife is being held hostage and rumors have the court doubting his loyalties. Gu is hunting down the rumor source but the damage has been done. What was the best news is their feint of defeat has lulled JungLi into a sense of security. He is prepping to take over the pass not realizing a healthy force will be ready and waiting to hold him back. The emperor does not deserve Prince and Princess Ding. 😝Fortunately they care for the people of Dachu in spite of the doubts cast their way.

Prince Ding is literally frustrated.🤣 He has been ambushed with aphrodisiac soup and refuses to comply. Ye Li overrides his plan to stay locked up in his study until he calms down. She opts to take her stud muffin home by the hand and having a calm chat with sis in law the following day. With her attitude about the situation, I hope XiuYao felt more inclined to take advantage of the circumstances. Ms Wen is unapologetic at pushing things along. She thinks this is the best course for Ye Li. I have mixed feelings. I agree she should not be left to feel alone and that a child could ease the situation. But Ye Li also felt strongly about children being made political pawns and should have had a say about something that was supposed to be for her benefit. The Duke chats with her and admonishes her about saying his friend was alive and well writing books. Ye Li looked him straight in the eye and admitted she thought that was the truth of the matter. That it wasn’t until Xiu Yao came up the mountain to be by her side that she realized it was a dream she wanted, not the reality that existed. The Duke feels especially guilty and negligent for suggesting them stay on the mountain and then never bothering to check on them. They had no idea about the Imperial troops that laid siege to the school forcing them out of food and med supplies. Ye Li lets him know straight up that there was never a thought from any in Lishan that he held any blame for their situation. She explained how her efforts were thwarted by being isolated and locked up. By the time she escaped, there was no rescue that could be made. He is processing her solitary existence at LiShan and why. He ends up having heart attack like symptoms and asks to be helped home rather than doctor. Prince Ding has been sidestepped for post with Official Duo volunteering for the job. It was unexpected but an acceptable swap. Prince Ding realizes his loyalty was put into question. Again.😝🙄 Little did his substitute know his death had already been decided before he arrived. He would be tossed like yesterday’s trash. They outline quite specifically the weapons, soldiers, horses and cavalrymen at his disposal to invade the capital. It was rather impressive. Had he not killed YuanFang to cover up his armory and troop numbers, I think he had the right enforcement means and going after the right lady that started the mess with the Marquis and poet. However, killing a good man to achieve his goal is too much a repeat of Guo Jin. The witch is back looking for her Han supporter. He was just in the process of getting them both out when she arrives on the scene to stop him. Su Zhuidie has a nice batch of assassins to kill them both. Spy Feng shows up and it’s clear he is no swordsman, but we can only hope his two thrusts finally finished her off. We are still not shown a body and I sure wish MingXi would have decapitated her to be sure dead, but he was too busy mourning his brother and Feng his friend. I have to agree with Feng that MingYue was already punished for setting her free when MingXi confessed his brother’s part in things. The two men have buried what better be the last victims of Su Zuidie. There better not be another encore performance from her.😡🤬Feng offers to take MingXi back to capital with him, but he wants more mourning time with his brother. I am glad they have made fewer men available for JingLi’s battle plans. Feng arrives to let them know who the real traitor is and what they are planning. The only silver lining is Prince Ding’s prior knowledge of the area and best ways to defend it. He promises allegiance and not to return unless victorious. Prince Ding will hopefully once again be the right man in the right place at the right time. He is welcomed home by his family and he prepares for battle. I wish they would have gone with white rather than black hair dye but he doesn’t want to have any appearance of weakness with JingLi when they meet. It is unclear if JingLi knows about him being healed or not. I hope this is a surprise element for him. I really want to kill the Marquis again as Prince Ding and troops will face soldiers already trained and capable with their newest model crossbow. Jingli has had plenty of time to make himself capable as a fighter, but Cangbai is well aware of the formidable force that is Prince Ding. I am also glad Ye Li claims her martial arts skills from master Zhu. It is very likely they will be needed. Until next episode.

This episode shows a wise father figuring out who cares for his daughter. Qian Fei’s determination to make Yi Fei guilty of having a gf is a bit annoying now. He has told her repeatedly that he doesn’t and her own father reminded her that the girl liking him doesn’t mean his affection is returned for her. Wang should have taught her that. 😝 When I saw she brought her master bear and wanted to snuggle it…I forgave her. 🥰Yi Fei is cute buying flowers. He wants her to know he likes her but subtly. She was very pleased with the daisies so he did well. I have been beyond tired of Jun Cheng and Dang Yu. But….that conversation he had with her mom….to record and share it with her was a special moment. This is one time I did not begrudge screen time. YiFei makes such little efforts with his dad except shamelessly asking for a w0 million loan. He has no clue his father’s group is in trouble because he is so tied up with Fuxilada. His father is secretly quite proud of his son’s efforts and determined to not let him fail. Lu Ze is finally seeing his dream becoming reality by changing the venue for his app. YiFei sees it’s potential keeping record of specific farming details. It can trace from seed to end product as well as let individual see how their efforts perform. Lu Ze is quite happy and plans on a fancy dinner with JingJing to celebrate. Jin surprisingly agreed to back off after confessing and seeing how little impact that have with YiFei. She even gave him words of wisdom that weren’t trite but actually helpful. When picked up she wants to drive home. She notes the extra slippers and that’s accounted for with flower watered. What is tripping him up now is the long hair she found in living room. She is OCD about cleaning, but ……😝🫣🙄really? Had there been a video like I expected she would have had reason for jealousy. This….is none of her business when she friend zoned him. She can’t have it both ways. Besides the fact he is only guilty of rendering aid. 😝Seems Ms Fang has feet of clay as mentor.

This episode shows the family dynamics at Dang Yu’s house. Her sis is resentful of being stuck at home and jealous that Dang Yu gets to send home money and call it a day. Dang Yu sees her sis as a freeloader off their parents and another mouth to feed. The dad is very quiet except in making it clear which is the preferred daughter. We don’t know what her mom said to Jun Cheng, but he has a pretty good handle on mothers. 🤣 He knew to show up with a gift and to make clear his intentions. I am thinking the dance project is going to end up being more a competition but if they work together it might bring understanding to Jun’s parents. Yi Fei sees Qian Fei off at the airport and has a gift for her dad. His phone would have plenty of pics of her, she just never thought to have pics of him. Funny her dad aware of the comedian pic she showed him. 🤣😂 They seem close and chat freely except about her bf status. After Wang and then that debacle of a blind date her dad set up for her, I can’t blame her for wanting this topic off the table for discussion. Liao Shi Yu is pragmatic about Wang and accepts that she will have to work with Qian Fei. What was news is that there was a time when Wang was a hero for her. He may not have even realized it or that was a freak accident and not really his character. If they have written him completely out of the drama now….good riddance.🥳Jin has found a way to get to Yi Fei’s home. She is going to have her congee class online and be a bur for him where Qian Fei is concerned. Qian Fei will have herself equal to blame because she went to great lengths to friend zone him. Next episode looks like Liao and his money hungry partner may make a deal bypassing Yi Fei’s veto. YiFei should have listened to his partner and found out the names of investors. If a contract is signed it will be no bueno for his company.

The Emperor now takes his place and does his best to right the wrongs done to Lishan scholars. This includes recognition to Ye Li that was a bit disputed in the court but upheld after he explained his position. This meant that the trustworthy steward of Shende shop now holds an official position so there is a quest to find a store manager to take his place. Mr Tang is the best candidate and Xiu Yao is not enthused with the handsome choice, 🤣 He thinks there is something off seeking a position far away from his own family’s holdings. He expects trouble from him if hired. The prince is ever present for med checks and household stewardship. Ye Li gently hints that he might want to go back to work.🤣 I was expecting something different than business as usual from the Ding household after time in Lishan. The general of Suixue pass has died under mysterious circumstances. It is agreed that a capable general would not be easily killed by a stable hand. There is a request from the court to send Prince Ding there and he is still deciding. His nephew overhears and tells his mother. She decides to do some meddling with the Ding family and it remains to be seen if her efforts will be appreciated. She has given the gift of Nanny Zhu to their household to help take care of things. While Xiu Yao gets soup, Ye Li’s way of living is being turned upside down. This is probably how Xiu Yao felt when Ye Li arrived at the palace and invaded his personal space. 🤣 Ye Li’s snacks, meals and living quarters are all under siege by the eagle eye of Nanny Zhu who is removing all things detrimental to Ye Li’s health. When her flowers are moved and she’s kicked out of the area for sneezing, I’m sure Ye Li wanted to say something. For now she is staying quiet and obedient. So after all these arrangements, I don’t think that was calming soup the Prince received. I think Ms Wen is urging the couple along to give her a niece or nephew. She may feel a baby on the way will help Ye Li deal with Xiu Yao’s absence if he chooses the military post. Mr Tang is being followed to see where he goes after work hours. Apparently he is hiding from family to have trysts with his girl. 🤣🫣Here Prince and Princess Ding create a similar situation to disguise Ye Li’s spying, 🤣😂Sister Ning and Uncle show up for some family time. Here the uncle is happy to see his nieces getting along and even offers Ning a job. Ye Li encourages Ning to look after the families rather than just collecting rent. She wanted Ning to understand the people are more important than the money long term. Ning even offers for Ye Li to stay with her in future hard ships come. Ye Li might visit if no flute or guqin playing involved. 🤣😂 guess the business as usual episode was to show Ye Li is getting past her past, but I would have liked seeing snuggle time and/or a direct chat with Emperor rather than Guo Jin heading to Ye Li’s mom’s grave site and the invasion of Nanny Zhu. Jing Li’s plot is about to unfold and I would have liked intel from spy Feng and update from Gu. Maybe next episode when it looks like JingLi makes an appearance.

JingJing gets the contract for gala. Qian Fei goes to Liao ShiYu with her original apology plan explaining why. Wang still lacked the courage to do the right thing. He has the break up line down to perfection. 😝I can’t applaud him realizing how little he did for Qian Fei. It just shows he recognized how much he took her for granted and how caring she is for people in general isn’t a crime but a rare asset. She has the highest integrity even with her job whether or not circumstances goes her way, she follows through. Liao Shi Yu was shamed into doing the right thing. This will help her company out and she earned her dad’s respect for taking responsibility. Yi Fei and colleague stole Qian Fei’s laptop to make that happen. While initially embarrassing, it gives them grounds for legal action if any more videos show up. It was the best move. Ms Fang knows Qian Fei working behind the scenes in spite of being kicked off the project. Even Ms Liao was curious about her helping. Had to respect her for valuing her job and responsibly to her company. Somebody needed to take responsibility and the first hotel to do that would gain the biggest amount of public support and respect. I’m sure Mr Li wants to know why his son is chatting it up with a waitress. 🫣 I liked how he talked his son’s company up. He respects what his son is doing and is trying to assist from the outside. Yi Fei is all proud of himself, but he underestimated Qian Fei’s anger at his butting in. He was well aware that putting faith in Wang and Shi Yu to do the right thing wasn’t going to happen without an outside push. So he made sure it was provided in a way that let Shanlifang save face and appear to do the right thing by choice. The right goal was met, but his arrogance was a misstep with Qian Fei. Looks like next episode Qin is going to wrangle her way in to do exactly what Qian Fei accused Yi Fei of doing. 😝Qian Fei was right, but it was a high handed way to handle things. She went above Ms Liao and Ms Fang. She returned the slap she’d been given professionally. Ms Liao still wants Wang. Why? I know the heart wants what the heart wants. She did not pay attention to the vibes her dad was giving or the room in general where Wang was concerned. Her own lack of respect for him in the workplace at his indecisiveness should have clued her in they were not a good match. Maybe they will drop Wang entirely from the drama now. If they would just do that with Jun’s parents too.😝🙄

Qian Fei replays all the persevering tips from YiFei and pulls an all nighter planning a gal for Shanlifang. Her strategy was a public apology while Ms Fang wanted it for charity to improve company image. He is more than happy to claim what a good master he is and she a good apprentice. 🤣😂 Yi Fei presents Qian Fei’s idea but her removes the apology and polishes some other things. Qian Fei is beyond annoyed that he removed what she considered the core theme of her project. He reminds her to consider the source and that it was changed to accommodate Liao Shi Yu who was doing the hiring. She remained unhappy but did see the wisdom of his words. JingJing is now in the competing ring for the gala, but she was also the bigmouth making a scene with Wang in Shalifang’s lobby. I want her to get the job, but I also want her to learn to stop making big scenes when she’s driven by temper and sense of justice denied. She is a complete train wreck then and she really needs to curb it. 😝Lu ze is having a hard time re entering workforce after having a company. They either see him as unwilling to work under a boss, or if last project a fail what would next project be like. He was the perfect bf encouraging her this time and he is being more pragmatic about his job. Plans are being made for the holiday but Qian Fei was distracted and can’t find a ticket to get home. Her dad wants her to bring bf home. 🤣😂Yi Fei takes her phone and uses his Love Me Love My Voice tone and lowers it to make a more impressive impression on the dad. He does back her up saying he had plans and to take care of himself better. She is very relieved he didn’t go overboard. She tried to get Dang Yu to include Jun in her plans and she declines the notion because of mom. Can’t blame her. Leave that hornet nest be. 😝Yi Fei’s partner is pouting about investors. I really wish YiFei had not interrupted him so he could explain how Liao uses small companies to plump assessments and then tosses them when no longer useful. That would have made him less rebellious about the veto. I think he is now considering LuZe for R&D. Waiting to see next episode. One thing funny was YiFei trying to cook for himself. Her his Love Me Love My Voice skills did not carry over.🤣😂 Jun is hanging out with him instead of parents and giving sensible advice but YiFei wants the scene staged better before his big reveal to Qian Fei. What is also a bit weird is Ms Liao so openly criticizing and shutting up Wang at the meetings publicly, she’s being as rude with him as Qian Fei. That he makes no efforts but a he’s dear attitude puts him on a par with Mr Jun. 😝🙄 Seems Yi Fei came through with a ticket next episode so waiting to see what Qian Fei has to do to get it. 🫣

Wang’s mom wants him to try to get Qian Fei back. As if. 😝🙄 she does the courteous thing and visits his mom because they have been friends a long time. Qian Fei very politely makes it clear that she cares for and respects her, but that there is no hope whatsoever for a relationship with her son. That tie is severed. Ms Liao decides to show up and sees them in the hall. The usually non biased cool headed business woman is jealous. 😝 She can rest assured there is NO competition for this man. 😝🙄A colleague that was going to cheat her of 100k got dismissed from his job and the company paid her. This is the real clout YiFei has. Mr Liao has a meeting at the golf course where he offers Yi Fei’s company an in to IPO. It is questionable what the motives are behind it, but YiFei will not be naive like LuZe. Does Mr Liao know who LiFei is? Jun Cheng plants himself to see Dang Yu again. He explained his position and wasn’t creepy about it. With his parents, she is well rid of them all.😝 When he gets a job and home separate from his parents he might become dateable. She has finally got a glimpse of who he really is without the stalker, lack of boundary awareness persona he has thanks to dear ol’ mom. She at least knows he is likeable, just not grown up enough to be a partner for her. His family is too extra in a bad way. There has been another attack on Shanlifang hotel and Qian Fei tries to tell YiFei. He happens to be in the shower and there is a towel incident. 🫣🤣They are now both awkward because sometimes things can just not be unseen.🤣😂She refuses to compliment him and they make it to a late meeting. As usual Qian Fei is best prepare with a solution. What is unusual is Wang is first put in the spot and Qian Fei is kicked off the team. Petty is as petty does.😡Like father like daughter. Nobody stood up for Fei this time, nor did she for herself. She left her notes with most helpful tips outlined. Ms Fang apparently heard from Mr Kong and she was going to be dismissed. Here again, seems mean girl is behind this and getting Uncle to do her dirty work for her with Qian Fei. Preview shows YiFei may have some insight about who behind the attacks and how accomplishing it. My biggest hope for Qian Fei is that she gets completely away from the company of her idol. When the top CEO relies on nepotism and bullying, there is no need to stay there. I want her to ace her test and then find a job away from all of them. Yi Fei likes her, but he can’t put his ego aside enough to tell her who he really is. The last thing she needs is more lies in her relationships. She needs a clean break from all of them.😝

Lu Ze mentions Yi Fei looks familiar. Wang had tried 4 times to be hired with Yi Fei’s dad’s company and was rejected. This gives reason for Wang’s jealousy and hostile attitude to Qian Fei after noting they are working together. His mom has been moved to a Shanghai hospital for rehabilitation and Wang wants gf to visit his mom. Ms Liao had too many meetings and wanted to leave the caregiving to the professionals. Qian Fei would have met her at the hospital because that’s the type of person she is. She places equal value for the people in her life with her career. She made that clear with Ms Fang. Her dad would not have been happy with ‘let’s move in together to practice marriage guy’. However this seems very like wat Master YiFei has been doing. 🤣😂 He dresses her up and then wants her to stay covered. 🤣 He even froze out the office to accomplish it.🥶🤣 Jun Cheng’s mom strikes again and Dang Yu has had enough. She graciously chatted with the mom and made her point clear. No matter what area she conceded to mother on, there would always be more demands. She would no longer be her own person or happy and who would choose to marry into that situation. Since mom kept butting in, she put the onus on her to tell her son they would just be friends. She also said this was her final conversation with her. For as overbearing and condescending as the mother had been, it was very clear Dang Yu had better home training. She was courteous and respectful but held her ground to tell her she was crossing lines and needed to back off. She wanted no ties to the Jun family because too binding. Now the mom is a coward and won’t tell Cheng what she did. She has reason to be fearful and she says she will never butt in again but that is only until a next time becomes available. His dad kowtowing to the mom is cute as a pair, but yo nit respect his son’s space to appease his wife makes his character equally poor because he supports from the sidelines and doesn’t make any effort to help her see reason. After a single cute game scene it is back to mama drama and is a killjoy in watching this drama. 😝very cute scenes with master teaching student helping her prep for exam. 😁Jin shows up at YiFei’s place because he had canceled. One wants to know why a wealthy son has to rent with someone and the other wants to know why a popular influencer wants to date a poor guy that can’t get out of a rent agreement. Both want to know what the appeal is.🤣😂 Yi Fei has some explaining to do. 🤣😂

JingJing gets to Qian Fei’s place and the drinking begins. JingJing notices the higher grade drinks and Qian Fei is shameless recording her cry. She mocks JingJing giving herself a pity party. The two decide to continue the party elsewhere and Lu Ze and Yi Fei show up to help when two guys try to force them to another location. When the assaulters call for help, the two learn it’s not their guys. Yi Fei’s friend shows up with a large crowd and the almost brawl changes to get back to party. LuZe and Yi Fei get the girls to a table and get food into them. Yi Fei joined the friends he forced to show up for him and makes excuse to leave. He is not happy his friend is interested in tough girl.🤣 Jin notices and pays attention to the one YiFei wants to be with. They get the girls home and JingJing and LuZe take over Jian Fei’s room. They come to breakfast to be teased about lip condition.🤣😂 What they are surprised about are the wifey chores Qian Fei calmly accepts from YiFei 🤣 There is a cute scene of Dang Yu and Jun Cheng playing the game and winning. They would have been an adorable pair had this been the way they let the couple interact from the get go. Seems next episode Qian Fei’s dad wants her to add a colleague’s son on WeChat. 🧐

Qian Fei is surprised YiFei wants the other ticket. It took some bargaining, but he pretended massive interest to get her to go with him. He tries to get closer and the closest he gets is taking photos with comedian for her. She noted that she was not at her best in any of the photos.🤣😂 There is a fun exchange over name meanings. 🤣😂Dang Yu and Ms Jun have a dance off. 😝 Ms Jun is very forward trying to get the most people to her class. Dang Yu more kindly recommends Ms Jun’s class and they end up in same cab leaving studio. Ms Jun wants Dang Yu dropped off first, but that is refused. No need to give the mom another point to find fault with or place to spy on. Again Dang Yu tries to share the love of dance from her hometown, and again, Ms Jun has to imply or flat out say Shanghai is superior.From that YiFei gets a call and pretends he is going out with Jin. Where he’s really headed is Wang’s place. Wang has just chatted with his dad and his mom is in emergency surgery. She learned they had broken up and this resulted in finding a clogged artery that needed immediate attention. He turns this into a a call to accuse and berate Qian Fei for fake concern about his mother. He’s still admonishing her when YiFei tells him to hang up. He is unaware Qian Fei is on the other end of the call. He and Wang get in a fight. Wang was found guilty of doing sneaky things behind YiFei’s back and using Qian Fei as a steppingstone to further his career, two things Yi Fei hates most. He tells Wang to leave Qian Fei alone or a beating the least of his worries. Now that Wang’s mother is recovering after a successful surgery, will he go home battle scarred or make excuse to stay in the city. Lu Ze goes to find JingJing and again he disappoints. He really doesn’t want to talk to her about what went wrong. He tells her he shutdown his company and will not see his product through to launch. This child of his was dumped when grit was required to see it through and support it. JingJing has already seen him devalue her once when things got hard for him. After saying he wouldn’t stick by his dream and sees he wants to be with her, his proposal did feel hollow compared to the first one. She sadly told him that rich or poor didn’t matter, she did not want to marry him. JingJing calls Qian Fei for girl support and Qian Fei tells YiFei their eggplant dinner is cancelled and to not wait up. She told him to have fun with his gf. YiFei is definitely pouty after this and the friends he’s been ghosting are now expected to party it up with him. The more the merrier. This episode showed Mr Liao saying one thing and reacting opposite with his daughter. Wang initially wanted to push a response from the hotel and now changed his tune to do internal fixes and public promotions but to keep public statement neutral. Mr Liao isn’t particularly happy with how his daughter is running things, but does not contradict her directly.YiFei definitely wants Qian Fei to know he’s interested, but he doesn’t tell her directly. She is either truly unaware or choosing to ignore the hints. These two 🤣😂🙄

Lu Ze confesses to his company and halts business. He is looking at happy couple pic when business opened and dream became reality. Now both his relationship and dream are finished. For me, this was avoidable had he done his homework on business and had his relationship same tier as his dream. Til these are in sync…he truly deserves neither. Somebody is sabotaging Shanlifang and framing Qian Fei. When cornered by Ms Liao, Ms Fang was waiting for Qian Fei to speak up and disappointed when she didn’t. She then let the hotel know that they were the client and had no say in the employee position of company assisting with IPO. This needed done to remind nepo daughter that business has its own set of rules to follow. Wang is going out of his way to be vindictive and find fault with Qian Fei. I don’t see how it would benefit him to be the saboteur because he still needs 500k from Qian Fei. She needs her job to pay him back. This gave Ms Fang a way to chastise Ms Liao and remind her the pecking order of business, and would have forced Qian Fei to defend herself. Would she do this to mentor? Doesn’t seem her style but can’t be sure. Somebody who knows Qian Fei well is behind this because they knew to catch her there apologizing. So I guess the shirt skirt made the guys recognize Qian Fei is a girl. 😝🙄There is not a clear winner in the office shenanigans. I still can’t rule out mean girl because this seems her style and she doesn’t have anything to lose. Wang’s hostility is still a mystery. He and JingJing definitely hostile with their interactions, but Qian Fei doesn’t typically seek confrontation. She reacts rather than instigates. Yi Fei has unexpected luck in that the girl crushing on him got him tickets to the show Qian Fei wants to go to. YiFei is on the hook for a favor and that will probably bite him later, but he’s too happy to have the tickets now. Wait til Jun Cheng’s mom realizes the girl she’s looking down on is her troupe leader’s daughter.🤣😝 She deserves whatever fallout hits her. Dang Yu challenged Jun Cheng to do his own dances in future.🤣😂 I like that she addressed his mother candidly. She met the bias of his mom with the quip about her son. It was deserved and in this case not out of line. The mom made a lot of assumptions without even having a proper conversation. She is condescending and thoughtless along with sticking her nose in where it doesn’t belong. Dang Yu told her all that rather politely considering. 😝I am wanting to see the dance off coming up. It will be all about her attitude with her troupe leader after revelation that I’m most curious about. Yi Fei thinks the tickets will be for him and Qian Fei but preview shows she has other plans. 🤣 On taking his last name for bet, ya gotta enjoy the cheeky response he gave with putting his real last name as her choice 🤣😂

Dang Yu finished up what QingQing started. She uploaded the video with the lobby yelling match and it went viral. So now Mr Liao responded with lawyer letters to Qian Fei and Dang Yu demanding a public apology or things would get ugly in court. Dang Yu responded with a livestream apology which was countered by Jun Cheng. Here the idiot did an incredibly sweet thing. He stayed live online all day till he started to trend and veer the trolls away from her. This earned him a date at a haunted escape room. Here he lost all the cool points from livestream to cowardly hide behind her. 😝🤣 His mom is trying to butt in again, but so far is two steps behind. We can only hope it will stay that way. I truly like Dang Yu’s character. If she can find a way to stand him and family, I will hope she beats some sense into them.🤣😂😝Jian Fei was asked to leave her notes and leave the meeting. She had tried privately apologizing to Ms Liao and it was heard but not recognized. YiFei gets her an outfit that I agree with her too short for office, but she looks damn cute instead of thrift store model. 🤣😂 she gets her hair done too and lamenting investing 3k into herself. Her friends will thank YiFei for accomplishing this. 👏🏻 Ms Liao and Wang are talking at the end. She was not behind the legal action and she has no issue with Qian Fei working in project. I really resent Wang maligning Qian Fei’s character when her only crime had been her support of him and their relationship. He is a petty weak man and not worth either of these capable business women’s time. That he wants her removed from a project because she has the skills that he lacks and he feels inferior as a result, is his own damn problem.😝He should bow out and take care of his parents and leave the business part to the capable ones. 😝

So meeting was with YiFei’s dad. He said no for all the reasons YiFei had outlined for him. What was positive was not closing the door when he had product ready. YiFei’s meeting was tech and farming. They were developing a way to help farm in a sustainable way integrating it with developments and tech. There is a bday dinner for Jun Cheng and his mom staged an argument to prove her son could actually act like a grown up. There is hope for him.🤣Between Wang and gf the gf is the grownup. He wants to put the blame on Qian Fei when it was his behavior that was betrayal. So he wants to kick his ex under the bus to make his life easier. 😡🤬 Ms Liao had the right response for the situation. I still do not see what she or Qian Fei see in this guy that ever made him worth their time.😝This is probably in the cut scenes when they had to do face swap. It was fun watching the Ace Fei’s studying for test. She can basically quote the book verbatim. Someone is making the video viral because they refused money to kill it. Not sure yet who wants benefits most from that. There are other ways to get rid of Qian Fei. Who wants the Hotel to look bad? This time Wian Fei is wondering where Yi Fei is for dinner. She made all his favorites. JingJing told Qian Fei how she could not stay with LuZe if he truly valued his company more than her. I don’t know why he thought she couldn’t grasp his situation. She pretty succinctly told QianFei why his company was set up to fail. She was even braced for it. It’s kinda like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol when he gets the fiancée’s ring back because it did not have the same appeal as the money. I didn’t expect that from him. I wonder if mean girl is behind the video trend. That kinda seems like her bailiwick.
