Happy endings

Dr Fang has a way of making Man tying his tie a very intimate gesture.🥰 She finally remembered him as the kid at the wedding she called aside to help with his tie. Man has a chat with MuSun and with this, she was heavy handed and too judgmental. She was also flawed as a person to so didactically address him about his lengthy list of flaws and shortcomings. It is also noted that he just sat there and absorbed her words rather than respond. As he said later to Chen Mian, he never underestimated a woman. The only woman he did treat a bit shabbily was the one pretending to be QingCheng that stole his watch. He never made Man feel bad about herself and he supported her work and her person. He publicly defended her and endorsed her work to a colleague where it eventually became published and recognized. He valued his time with her and while admittedly not the right person as a lifetime partner, he did not deserve that comeuppance speech from Man. Dr Fang got beaten on by Chen Mian who considered him a traitor. He was also upset with MuSun losing their money. The money was only half his to start with. KaiXi more than earned it from his decades of abuse.😝 She is coming into her own and choosing to amicably co parent as that will truly be the best thing for their son. Dr Fang quickly exited to the hospital branch to continue his training and there is a 6 month time lapse where everybody ends up at a scriptwriter’s award ceremony. Man is recognized for her book, QingCheng has become an A list celebrity and Dr Fang has returned. He is glad Man finally remembers his first tie meeting with her and I was a bit sad he wore a sweater this time. She finally sees him as a man rather than a boy and smiles when she realizes how long he has crushed on her. In his case, I think he was waiting for her to grow up.😂 They show MuSun and Mian commiserating at the end and that was fitting. Red flags do stick together. However, I find I will always have a soft spot for MuSun that I will never have for Mian. He is lucky MuSun chooses to tolerate him. We finally see the Doctor getting to kiss his favorite tie tyer. 😁 This is a really good series about and for women and is highly recommended. I hope this gets discovered and watched by many more viewers. It deserves a much larger audience.

It’s hard being a woman

He was served divorce papers with a series of photos and told a video option available. He had buried his stocks with Fang so that offering her 90% was savings, house and car. He has billions in stocks😝 so the trio followed a scripted plan to keep Mian and MuSun thinking they were mad at each other and fooled by his Trust offer. While he was gone, KaiXi found the paperwork for his stocks which changed the conditions of the divorce considerably. She could make him comply by blackmailing to go public before bell ceremony and killing his IP. Man spent hours putting Lego together so she could sneak MuSun’s phone as backup plan. With this, I felt bad for MuSun. Not about the phone borrowing but her disdain of his gift with her friends. I think he really just wanted to spend time with her doing something together and it was not her cup of tea. QingCheng had the distasteful part of pretending affection. It was satisfying watching her end it while he tried to figure it out. For once his multitasking with women wasn’t working out. He signed the divorce papers with her conditions. The women celebrated with very expensive wine. They were jubilant in there success until KaiXi wasn’t. She played back the disdainful looks he constantly threw her way and the shock when he saw the very capable woman with same college degrees slam him for a true 50% of his assets. He could spin tales because she had watched exactly what happened with QingCheng and it was not the tale he was spinning to her. She went from joyful to sorrow that her family would be broken forever and that the man she gave her youth to, didn’t value her, their son, or her efforts more than pleasing and indulging his every whim at will. He is truly a waste as a human being. The actor played it so well just seeing his face makes me want to smack him. 😝😂 Man and QingCheng embrace her and cry along with her as the episode ends.

Papers served

Mu Sun stepped up gifts big with the necklace, but Man didn’t accept it. She really wished she had when she saw how much it was worth. Chen Mian is trying to play into son’s wishes and have both parents at the school. He is trying very hard to box Kai Xi in. Man is annoyed that Kai Xi hasn’t served him divorce papers. That smirk on Mian’s face says it all. 🙄😡🤬 He serves her papers. It’s a trust handing her the lion’s share of his assets. He gives them to her right before they were presented as a loving family at company celebration. He tells her that countless women only saw his good side. She was blessed with seeing his bad side. This supposedly is how he shows her love and appreciation. I don’t think he really hears the bs he spouts where his wife and son are concerned. He tells her his assistant fell and lost the baby. He sent her abroad and wow problem all solved.🤬Earlier in the day he meets with QingCheng and tells her that’s how he bought his freedom. Wife and son will get his assets and he will be free to live off QingCheng’s earnings. This guy is a real prize. I know how they make this look. But one thing QingCheng would never be is the other woman. Her mom went through too much for her to inflict that grief on another. So I don’t know if she’s trying to provide evidence for KaiXi’s divorce or what, but she’s not going to cheat with Chen Mian. Kai Xi gave Chen Mian papers and he didn’t look happy when episode ends.

Layers of betrayal

MuSun tries to catch Man’s attention. Dr Fang hears his brother and cousin at hospital and tells KaiXi to be careful. While talking with the lawyer it becomes more and more evident that Chen Mian was looking out for himself in the event of the marriage not lasting. He has said repeatedly that the right wife material was one who would sacrifice everything for the family. That is what he sees KaiXi’s role as. He has put her parents in a villa and offering to pay for decorating so that KaiXi will be in a more vulnerable spot to try to make them go against him. He’s really self centered and selfish. His promises are as worthless as he is. There is no way his parents will ignore a grandchild. The documentary takes a somber turn when a patient dies. It is afterwards revealed that he was technically DOA but they wanted his family to have some closure by knowing effort was made. This was the director’s idea and actually showed he wasn’t as crass as I thought from his prior patient request. The team went to the rooftop and held vigil til sunrise to have hope for a new day after suffering a loss. KaiXi wants a divorce but she is still hesitant with the decree because she’s more likely to get nothing when she files it. At the end they make it look like QingCheng is chummy with Chen Mian and there is a sonogram picture in moments.

What level of hell am I in?

This starts with MuSun agreeing to be in documentary. Dr Fang helps Man out and they say they are going on a dinner date. There is a bickering moment between him and Man paying for MuSun’s meds. She takes MuSun out in a wheelchair and tells him good bye as he gets in the car. Kai Xi gets a notice that her vehicle had a traffic violation and knows for sure Chen Mian is not in Shanghai. She and Man get snooping and find game files with QingCheng. Here is where I am annoyed with both of them. They know who QingCheng is and her stance on red flags. There is no way she would get involved with Mian again because she would never betray her friends like that. This episode tried to make her look guilty but a friendly chat with somebody is not having an affair. They find out that the one that is pregnant is his assistant. They see him unloading baby stuff at her house. There was a very awkward celebratory dinner where Mian toasted the table. And then there were shots fired from everywhere. Dr Fang is tired of the crap from MuSun and Mian about women and says so. What really brought things to a head was the baby shoes. Was this supposed to go to the other house or an honest mistake from his family? She confronts him about an illegitimate child and knows what level of hell she’s in now.

Persuasion

Man takes Dr Fang to a 5 star restaurant to woo him to participate in documentary. She gets a no. This episode has Qing Cheng drinking for director. She finally impresses them enough to make them stop being asses about drinking. She gets the three extra days they need for film shoot. Director Jiang finally tries to woo her directly but she wants sibling relationship. She respects him and wants it to stay that way. Dr Fang had camping plans with Tiao, but since he had a fever Man filled in. They had a fun time and he called her out for making her heart race.🤣Kai Xi goes on an interview to support her husband. Man respects her word and says so. She often doesn’t see KaiXi stick up for herself but this time she did. Too bad we only get to hear about it rather than see it. They try to have lunch with QingCheng but she just showed up to share the latest gossip of MuSun helping Mian financially at the company. KaiXi felt her efforts had been undermined but her biggest grief was she had to hear her husband’s business from third parties. He completely left her out of the loop. During a rainstorm, Dr Fang brings out bags to use and he and Man play like children. He agrees to the documentary. The camera crews have to work as long as the doctors and Dr Fang gives his shoulder for Man to rest. She tries to act like big sis and calls him kid. He lets her know he doesn’t have a sis nor is he a kid.😝 They tape a young patient and it is a sweet moment. The fortune cookie story was poignant and Man found he left her one too. She posted it and he responded with a rainbow. The director is being an ass and actually wanted the young patient to return for better footage. Man said that wasn’t what a documentary was and wasn’t appropriate. Dr Fang overheard and got her lunch. When he thanked her for sticking up for him, her response was quite direct that she would have done that for anybody and they were not a we. After refusing him, the director gave her an extra hard day running her around with consent forms. The last one turned out to be MuSum.
