okay but can we talk about how much of a spineless person Lu Chen's mum is? At first, she married her ex-husband again instead of trying to provide for her kids and went on like "sure let's be a doormat with my kids forever, at least we're getting fed, even if it's with a frequent dose of beatings on the side", while knowing how that man was. You know, let's ignore that part but- her husband, who is a disgrace of a man, took a loan with their fcking grownup son as a mortgage, and she stayed silent for 2 years? Lady, we know you can't do shit against your husband but you didn't find one single day out of 720 days to tell the man in the question about it!? Let's actually forget that part as well, alright. Now, when Lu Chen is finally back AND clearly declined the marriage, and that too in the politest possible way even though none of them deserve that politeness, she had the audacity to tell Minshan to visit Lu Chen and that he only declined because he just got back home and isn't thinking properly? Um ma'am, that's your fcking grown up son who is x10000 of a man than your husband ever was/is/will be, maybe you should just stay put if you can't do anything for him.
Currently on episode 1 and I'm in love with Chen Linong's voice, so melodious! And Qin Fen is absolutely correct about his smile, it's like sunshine💕
edit: Qian Zhenghao, ohmygosh. He is so good- it felt like the most soothing lullaby when he sang "City of stars". edit: this is like the warmest survival show ever, all of the mentors and participants are so sweet.
I actually laughed out loud when the "marriage to help family" arc came because the first thought in my mind was "what in the alternate universe is this"- it reminded me of Li Mo Zhi being the victim in "My Lethal Man", and now her role being reversed here lol.
You know the grandma is problematic when she proudly talks about how she pulled her 14 y/o daughter out of school to work for her adult son's college fees.
