Hao Ming is still phony, taking landmark scenery shots to fool Xu Yan. He wasn't even adding the transportation and travel time from country to country. Xu Yan should have figured it out earlier.

I am not defending her behavior, but she didn't grow up with her baby sister until it was time for Granny to send Yan off to school. Yan was a stranger living with the family, and kept to herself. The mother and father adored their first born child, and prepared to send her off to university only.

It reminds me of my school friend's family. The mother, who was from China, told her seven children that she would send the eldest child and son to university only. The second child, a female, was actually at genius level in school, but she had to go to secretarial school after high school graduation, and find a job.

Qiao Lin finally looked mature in episode 22, when she was talking pragmatically to Yu Yu Ming. She was Miss Know It All before, always preaching. Being a business partner with her sister has given her confidence in herself.

I didn't notice it before, but Hao Ming has no friends. The closest to a "friend" are his parents, who suddenly warmed up to him in episode 22. That was probably the first honest conversation each parent had with him.

LOL I think Haoming is the one manipulating the viewers.

Didn't they do this with a recent drama; releasing one episode daily in the last "week"? They should adhere to the customary two daily episodes.

I was speechless when Xu Yan said that Haochen is 5'2. I am 5'2, and I never imagined we are the same height. LOL

The drama is very effective in relaying the message. The only likeable male characters are Yu Yu Ming and Haochen. Hao Ming's assistant is nice, but he's turning into the Love Doctor. It is funny that he is giving Hao Ming love advice.

I agree. Lin Tao has bipolar tendencies. When he acts normal, he looks like a friendly, likeable guy, but when the goes into clingy, domineering mode, he is irritating. When he showed up at the gym, my first thought was, "What's this fool doing here?" Didn't he return to his hometown for his job?

He still comes across like the entitled prince husband. When he was drinking with Yu Yu Ming, it looked like was manipulating YYM for sympathy and information about Xu Yan.

William Chan has an aura. Hard to explain! You have to look at his Zhang QiShan (Fo Ye) role in Mystic Nine, and you might understand. I remember when I was watching that drama nine years ago, the female viewers were tripping over themselves. it might be the eyes and the dimples, and the smile.

I am also getting vibes about a non-divorce. Ep 19 and 20 were so out of left field, that nothing else will surprise me.

The funny thing is that the writer and director created the scenes as if the couple, Shen and Xu, are two American tourist caricatures.

The only problem is when the Russian couple finds out that the lovey dovey couple divorce in a month.

The final scene will be the typical social distancing scene. LOL

I guess the ML and FL were weighed down by their somber roles, that he decided to cheer them up with a vacation and wardrobe changes.

They would be age appropriate if Haoming was twenty-one. The casting must have been favored.

If Haochen is not his child, what will happen to the boy? Mr Shen and Ms Yu cannot disown him. They have to abide by their parental oath, and support him financially.

How did they explain his birth to their social circle of rich friends? It would have been obvious that Yu Lan was not pregnant at the time. Did they tell their friends that they adopted a baby? They would have to tell Haochen if they adopted him. What about Fang Lei's father? Does he know that Haochen is his grandchild, and that Haoming is the biological father? I am sure he would want the boy.

ML and FL went delulu for two episodes. LOL

FILLER!!! They went off the rails in episode 19 and 20. The writer could have come up with a better idea to bond with the Russian-Chinese billionaire couple, since a billion yuan international investment is the stake. How does Shen plan to explain the divorce in a month? He is still trying to manipulate Yan into cancelling the divorce. He was throwing 10 million yuan investment at her startup company. He hasn't really learnt his lesson. It's not about the money, Shen. It's about loyalty and integrity, honesty and respect.
