Oh!!! I understand that, I was not specifically talking about the dog... I was talking about cloud footwear and Tengyue with Jiang Hu..... If BOSS was metaphorically Tengyue that died that day and KID is new beginning with cloud footwear then its not that easy to forget the old even with new.


I understand Symbolically KID brings healing, but it was very soon, without giving time for grieving BOSS, I understand this is a serial and has limited episodes, but I would have liked it better if KID was adopted at the very end.. Just my opinion...

I agree that all pets have Distinct identity, and bring their own share of love. BOSS will always have a distinct and unique place, KID will bring his own share of healing... But after passing away of one pet with the pain of deciding to let it go, I myself would not have the courage or heart to adopt a puppy immediately, I may never adopt any dog in future.

As I said all people are different, personally I wouldn't adopt any dogs after my own dog passed away due to illness and I had to decide to free him from more pain....For me, he would remain one and only in my heart.

My point was not about Yang Jian and Zhaoyang's personal relationship, I agree that in that area zhaoyang has to show some initiative.....my problem is the reason of problem between them, it feels like Yang Jian is breaking off his marriage because of Jiang Hu... Now I think the screenwriter did injustice to zhaoyang because if the intention was to make
zhaoyang realise her love for Yang Jian then it should have been their own personal issue.... A relationship that is broken because of outside factors is not strong enough to be mended... I have problem with the way writers have handled this issue... Lets see how these two make up because if zhaoyang is even a little bit apologetic to Yang Jian for Tengyue shares then I will be disappointed in this whole relationship... Zhaoyang can show remorse for not loving him or valuing him... But it should be about HIM and not Jiang Hu.... Zhaoyang doesn't owe any apology to Yang Jian for her behavior with Jiang Hu, that matter should be strictly between the two girls... yang Jiang should have no say in that nor get any apology for Tengyue


If you have other opinion, at this point I will agree to disagree with you and end this discussion here.

I beg to disagree with you.... If I understand correctly, zhaoyang did not agree to leave Tengyue, she agreed to be the head designer at Aneda and also continue to design for Tengyue, she was happy to get double opportunity to show case her talent... Yang Jian's reaction is totally off to this comment.....

Zhaoyang also said to Yang Jian that about the merger it is not her decision but Xu Si and Jiang Hu's decision. ... Which I think is perfectly logical on her part to say... She has no say in the merger, only has to decide on the designing offer.


As far as I understand, Xu Si's terms and conditions for Aneda merger with Ms.Tang was. ..
1. Jiang Hu would stay on

2. All employees of Tengyue would continue to work for aneda

3. Tengyue would retain its brand name., its identity.


Ms. tang agreed to this bit said she wanted Zhaoyang to work for Aneda as well as Tengyue, to which Xu Si said he cannot decide on behalf of Zhaoyang....

Zhaoyang was never leaving Tengyue for Aneda, she was happy for herself that IF, IF and a Big IF Jiang Hu agreed to the merger, she could work with Aneda too.

After the whole fiasco, she could have chosen to go work with Aneda and totally abandon Tengyue because every other person for their own reason is leaving Tengyue.... But only two people, Xu Si and Zhaoyang are as of now tenaciously hanging on to Tengyue for Jiang Hu's sake.


I dont want to compare both girls because for me both have achieved success in their respective fields by putting in lot of efforts.

My problem with Yang Jian and Zhaoyang's divorce is because the reason for their disagreement is Jiang Hu.... As I said in my earlier post, Yang Jian having relationship problem because of his own esteem or self worth is something that I can understand and get behind, but him wanting to divorce Zhaoyang over her decision related to Jiang Hu is something I cannot approve... If and If Zhaoyang has to apologies, it should be to Jiang Hu for not informing her of her awareness of Xu Si's plan... She doesn't have to apologize to Yang Jian for her decision regarding Tengyue and Aneda.

Ironically when people are abandoning Tengyue ship, Xu Si and zhaoyang are still on board to salvage it for the person they care about, Jiang Hu.

Minority here again... I totally agree with you... It seems its easy for everyone to find a scapegoat and that is zhaoyang..


Adding to the merger, I understand where zhaoyang is coming from, she agreed to work with Aneda if the merger with Tengyue went through... She did not say she will leave Tengyue and join Aneda as head designer. .... If I am given an opportunity to work with two companies that will help me grow in my field, I will also accept the proposal.

When Yang Jian was angry at her
for not telling him of Aneda's
merger proposition with Tengyue, she said the COMPANY BELONGS TO XU SI AND JIANG HU it's their decision to sell or not... She was happy for herself that if the merge went through, she could get double business opportunities... And Yang Jian was angry at this reply... Realistically people who hate her, if they were offered two good offers together, Would they refuse it????.... Remember it was two offers together, it was not leave Tengyue and come back to Aneda offer.

Zhaoyang did not go behind Jiang Hu's back to stab her, she did not betray Jiang Hu's trust... Like everyone else, she left it to Xu Si to discuss this merger with Jiang Hu... (In real life if we know a secret related to a couple, we would rather they talk things between themselves than us intervening)

If we appreciate Jiang Hu's ambition and vision for Tengyue and applaud her achievements... Why doesn't zhaoyang have the same right to think about her own career decisions????

She said that she doesn't make promises easily and when she does, she sticks to it... That dialogue sums up, zhaoyang's character for me.

She did not leave Tengyue when everyone around her are abandoning Tengyue for their own reasons, she is tenacious and that is the trait I admire in her.

That's what I dislike... I mean if their disagreement and him handing divorce paper was over something like he felt she did not appreciate him, I would be ok... But if for Jiang Hu's issue zhaoyang has to apologize to Yang jian then it would be totally off... If Jiang Hu feels betrayed then zhaoyang owes her an apology not Yang Jian.

The screen writer should have used a different reason for creating a conflict between zhaoyang and Yang Jian...


I am also unhappy with Yang Jian's character development in these last three episodes.... It's ok to have self respect and refuse to be second choice but leaving work and relationship for a dear friend is taking things too far..

At this point, I wish zhaoyang would move to a new place and both live separately for few months... But with only 4 episodes left, they may do a hasty patch up...

Episode 35 and 36

Very ambiguous feelings about these two episodes.. I felt things would pick up and get exciting but it seems the show has randomly changed direction. Yes it is understandable why it is happening but it felt off.. Surprisingly the only two people holding fort at Tengyue are enemy no 1....But For the first time I feel these two may seem cold on the surface but deep down they have more warmth than others.

Notable quote
Episode 36
Xu Si - Are you not going back to Aneda?
Zhaoyang - It was my promise to Jiang Hu to make Tengyue great. I don't make promises easily. Since I have made a promise, I'll keep it.

More in spoiler tag below

* Jiang Hu is still not in contact with anyone.. Junior Mr. Du from Baoxing investment has a talk with Jiang Hu in which he states that it would be better for her if she quits Tengyue and if she wants her old workers to continue with Aneda she better leave, so she packs her bags and leaves Tengyue.

* Yang Jian signs divorce papers, zhaoyang is finding a new place to shift into with her mother. (what I don't like about this story line is the question, Are they really fighting over Jiang Hu? Because even though they had different point of view but if one disagreement is so great that he is ready to give up on the relationship then for the first time, I feel zhaoyang is better off alone... They should get a divorce)

* Jiang Hu is starting over at Cloud footwear, she is given the similar task as at the beginning in Tengyue of selling 30,000 pairs(10, 000 pairs more than what Xu Si asked her to sell) of shoes if she wants to join the factory, she manages to do it in half day but the thrill I got seeing her sell 20,000 pairs of shoes of Tengyue for the first time was missing... I did not feel the same happiness and excitement at seeing her use the same methods that she used to make Tengyue great.... Even if she replicates the success of Tengyue at Cloud footwear, it doesn't feel the same without her team.

* Ms.Yue has given resignation, Ms.Song has decided to leave, Yang Jian quit Tengyue.

* The only two people holding fort at Tengyue are Xu Si and Zhaoyang, they are trying to keep the factory going for Jiang Hu's sake... Xu Si is trying hard to continue with the daily routine, he visits the factory daily for hands down management for Jiang Hu, Zhaoyang who at this point could easily leave Tengyue and hop on to Aneda, is still at Tengyue hoping that Jiang Hu will come back while holding her side of the bargain to make Tengyue great...For me these two people have shown more care for Tengyue than others who have just left because of Jiang Hu, I admire what these two so called COLD personality people are doing.

* So does it mean that now the competition is going to be between cloud footwear that Jiang Hu is trying to make another sucess story and Tengyue which is now operated by Xu Si and Zhaoyang as it's designer....I am not ready for this competition because I always saw them as a team, if there is a competition no matter which sides wins, it would make the losing side seem irrelevant. Jiang Hu was the glue holding things together but does it mean that without Jiang Hu, Xu Si and Zhaoyang are totally incompetent and will fail????? I don't like that scenario.

* I am totally unhappy with Yang Jian's character development, while it is admirable to stand up and back a friend, but to do so he is quitting Tengyue as if Tengyue is only important because of Jiang Hu... He is not ready to communicate with zhaoyang who tries to initiate conversation about their personal relationship, I don't expect him to bend over backwards for Zhaoyang everytime but to close off all channels of communication is not what I expected from him.... Earlier Yang Jian was only one trying to save his relationship with Zhaoyang and now it seems it's zhaoyang who is trying alone to salvage their relationship... Can't they meet midway, where he listens to zhaoyang's side and argeees to disagree, expresses his displeasure but accepts her decisions... This seems like Yang Jian giving an ultimatum that his way or highway.


*Xu Si purchases Jiang Hu's red car for her birthday, he also adopts a puppy, same breed as BOSS. The puppy is named KID. It is good to start anew but can old be so easily replaced????

As I said the main problem between all these people was lack of communication, so instead of communicating and resolving their differences they are just drifting off into different orbits.


I hope they resolve issues in a satisfactory manner... I am not happy with the direction of these two episodes, especially when there are only 4 more episodes left now.

Xu Si leaked it to the media that the financer was missing.. But at that time his intention was to create pressure on Jiang Hu's father to sell Tengyue industrial site... I guess neither Xu Si nor Gao yi expected her father to die leading to bankruptcy of free unicorn and downfall of Jiang Hu.

Go ahead... Rest of the episodes will get better once we get past these two episodes.

* A celebratory atmosphere, press and influencers are called for a 100 year celebration of Tengyue. Just before the celebration Jiang Hu accidentally sees a phone text from her uncle Mr.Pei to Xu Si to hurry up and tell Jiang Hu about the Aneda acquisition, Even zhaoyang wants to know Jiang Hu's response.

* Jiang Hu rightly feels betrayed, when she comes to know Xu Si has planned to sell her factory to Aneda, Zhaoyang also knows about it and approves because she can be a designer for Aneda as well as Tengyue, Ms.Yue approves because it will be less burdensome for Jiang Hu if financial side of business is overseen by Aneda, Mr. Pei approves because he feels Jiang Hu should cash out and enjoy the rest of her life in a carefree manner.... All LOGICAL decisions, none of them wrong from the viewpoint of business and brain....... BUT where emotions are involved, logic goes out of the window.

* BOSS is sick just before the party due to his old age, he is taken to the vet by Mr. Pei and Yang Jian, where Mr. Pei tells Yang Jian that there is some good news that Xu Si has for Jiang Hu and immediately Yang Jian replies if it's Xu Si then the news can't be good.. Yang Jian and Mr. Zhang from Tengyue factory are the only people who understand Jiang Hu's dedication for Tengyue goes beyond price.

* Before the party and press conference, Xu Si meets Jiang Hu... Jiang Hu who is now aware of his intentions to sell Tengyue, gives him a chance to come clean by revealing how important Tengyue is to her and does he have anything to say? Xu Si avoids answering and procrastinates by telling her they will talk later( I don't feel Xu Si 's intentions were wrong but him not consulting Jiang Hu and asking her opinion and hiding the truth were totally NO NO for any relations, as Xu Si's mom said in previous episodes, what one person thinks BEST for the other may not be what the other person wants.. Every person has their own take on what is BEST for them, Lack of Communication is a death nail for any relationship)

* During her speech for Tengyue 100 years celebration, Jiang looks at Zhaoyang, Mr. Pei, Ms. Yue as Judas who betrayed her for pieces of silver and ends up slapping Xu Si...

* Yang Jian and Zhaoyang have their first fight and disagreement over Aneda take over of Tengyue( This fight was also much needed, if you are a couple every time you cannot agree on same issues, but presenting your side to your partner and hoping they will understand you,if not agree with you is another important part of being a couple... This disagreement will bring them closer in future)

* Jiang Hu leaves the party and Tengyue factory after her recriminating speech... Everyone including zhaoyang, Mr. Pei, Ms.Yue and Xu Si try finding her as she is MIA not picking up their calls, yang Jian also continues to contact her on the phone.

* Amidst this there is a single call she picks up and my heart sinks, I knew it would be the vet calling to update BOSS's condition.. This part was the most difficult part for me to get through..Boss is sick and too old, better to let him go peacefully rather than hanging on to him for a few more days which would just be painful for him.. Jiang Hu crying while saying goodbye to BOSS was just too heart breaking💔💔💔..... But my only consolation is that BOSS saw glorious days of Tengyue before his death and he got ample love from people around him in his last year of life.... Death is inevitable but the life we live before death is what matters. RIP BOSS... You were the BOSS (I hope the real dog is still alive)

*Jiang Hu is taken up temporary residence outside Tengyue, she needs time to lick her wounds before bouncing back.. The only person she communicates with is Yang Jian who proves to be a good supportive friend.

*Gao Yi loses his wife to cancer... Also Jiang Hu visits Gao Yi's father in the care center, he rambles on about the embezzlement and Jiang Hu gets an idea that her father was responsible (I am still not sure which version to believe yet)... Gao Yi also has a talk with Jiang Hu about his intentions to teach Free unicorn a lesson with peace loan, but things escalated leading to death of Jiang Hu's father and later on bankruptcy... ( he repeats what we all know, he introduced peace loan to Jiang Hu's father but it was Xu Si who leaked information about the missing financer to media. I hope Xu Si confesses this to Jiang Hu before they mend their relationship)

*Xu Si, zhaoyang, Ms. Yue and Mr. Pei are trying to help Jiang Hu in whatever way they can... Zhaoyang is holding the fort at the Factory she has not abandoned Tengyue, Ms. Yue and Mr. Pei are calling Jiang Hu and explaining their own reasons for supporting the merger. Xu Si has been trying to locate Jiang Hu to explain his side, he also contacted Yang Jian for help(at this point Jiang Hu is only in contact with Yang Jian, but during their meal sharing, Yang Jian talks about Ye Guoming of cloud factory who is also old school, now I suspect this is Xu Si who directed him to talk about Ye Guoming. Yang Jian knowing about Ye Guoming seems too far fetched as it's not his area of expertise)

*Jiang Hu meets with Ye Guoming and other unpleasant fact about her father comes before her.... (Jiang Hu had given her father the status of a GOD, he was just flesh and blood like the rest of the humans and prone to make his own share of mistakes, but in spite of that I hope she continues to love her father as he loved and cherished her greatly)

* Now what worries me is the Baoxing investment company, they are the owners of Tengyue shares and even though Xu Si is in charge of the project for now, they are not the ones to overlook quick profits...

Two names keep cropping up in the series, one is Ye Guoming of cloud shoe factory and other is of Zhou Qing the inventor of AI technology for mass production who is looking for someone to finance his patent for the project.. Both these men will somehow help Tengyue.

Remember all characters had their own thoughts, none tried to harm Jiang Hu deliberately... Maybe now is the time for some good and direct communication between all of them... Zhaoyang and Yang Jian need to get past this difference of opinion hurdle which is a recurring issue in all marriages, we all have our own ideas and thoughts we learn to live with the other person by understanding and accepting their sides if not totally agreeing with them... Big time clarification and communication needed between Jiang Hu and Xu Si.

Episode 33 and 34

There are businesses started for money, where the sole aim is to earn profits and there are 'BUSINESSES' where a person pours their lifeblood, heart and soul into it, nurtures and watches it grow like a proud creator, a parent... The 'child' analogy of Xu Si's mother can only be understood by a person who has created a business to proudly pass it on to their next generation, as a legacy... Most of the traditional businesses were carried on through generations. Our idols just about always have feet of clay, which applies to Jiang Hu's father. Only a pet parent who has put their beloved pets to sleep understands the pain of that decision and the agony of parting. 😭😭🤧🤧... Very emotionally draining episodes but it was much needed, only if the wound is drained clean of bad blood can true healing start... ...Difference of opinion hurdle is a recurring issue in ALL marriages, we all have our own ideas and thoughts, we learn to live with the other person by understanding and accepting their ideology even if not totally agreeing with them... Too many losses and revelations... And because I am Team 'Jiang Hu', I cannot forsake the people who are an integral part of her team, yes be mad at them for now but start rebuilding the bridges that have been burnt.


Only quote applicable today:

Blackboard: Tengyue for 100 years. I want to go on for another 100 years. (Written by Jiang Hu)

More thoughts in spoiler tag below.

Yeah Xu Si will come up with a plan and Jiang Hu will do her best from her side... Both will work out a solution to save Tengyue..

He had to offer something bigger to Baoxing investment for them to let Tengyue go from their clutches... Two other businessmen/ plans that are simultaneously discussed in detail is Zhou Qing's , AI technology for mass production which is too costly to patent and second is Ye guoming and his old school shoe factory.

Somehow Tengyue has to grow bigger than Aneda by the end of the show.

Yeah those crucial 2% shares of Tengyue has to be acquired back, for that Xu Si will have to give a better financial offer to Baoxing. Because for Baoxing bottom line is money.

Yeah it has to end in a big business win for both Tengyue and Jiang Hu, with Xu Si's help.

Yeah Xu Si's mom very aptly used the metaphor which I extended in my post... After all, mom knows best😊

After the near perfect success of Tengyue following the exhibition at Lidu, we had some episodes focusing on personal relationship, last few episodes will get us back in the race.

Xu si has to pull a rabbit out of the hat this time and perform some great feat to save Tengyue, he has to atleast get the 2% shares back from Baoxing investment, preferably all 51%....Lets see how he does it because for Baoxing ultimate god is money, so he has to convince Baoxing investment with a better option than merging Tengyue with Aneda for generating money.

Two other business plans are continuously discussed, one is the Al technology of Zhou Qing that is too expensive to patent and needs large scale production to absorb its patent cost... Another is Ye Guoming and his factory..... One of this will come into play.


But ultimately Tengyue has to grow large enough to compete directly with Aneda....

Let's see what happens.

I agree, she had an emotional wall around her with regards to Yang Jian, now that she has decided to take a chance on him, she will be more honest with her communication.

I hope they don't show Boss's health problems more... Just focus on living the rest of his life in a good manner.

The problem with shares is, 51% belongs to Baoxing investment and not Xu Si, Xu Si will have to conjure a rabbit out of a hat to convince those money hungry businessmen to purchase those shares back, but if my speculation is correct, we will get to see both Jiang Hu and Xu Si trying in their own fields to retain control of Tengyue...


I also liked actor Wei Zheming's reactions before Gao Yi's wedding ceremony... Wei Zheming's acting was Heartbreaking.

All's well that ends well is my philosophy, I have a strong feeling... Xu si will surely redeem himself and Zhaoyang will be a good partner for Yang Jian.... Jiang Hu will keep her factory...

Audience will get thrilling last few episodes if both Xi Si and Jiang Hu try in their own fields to save Tengyue.

Episode 31 and 32
It's the calm before the storm. Another two episodes where the main focus is on relationship and team building. In a very short scene that Wei Zheming had in episode 31, impressed me with the range of emotions he brought in.. Boss is ok for now. But seriously what was Xu Si thinking when he made the deal???

Notable Dialogue
Episode 31
Xu Si's mother- I understand very well the feelings of industrialists like Jiang Hu. She saw her factory grow with her own effort. It's like a mother giving birth to a child after a 10 month pregnancy. How much money do you think is enough to make it up to her?
