before this ep i was sure that Sun got rid…

before this ep i was sure that Sun got rid of 'Q' it would be out of anger - ironic that in this ep he is giving him his freedom, cause he understood that 'Q' was suffering & wasn't happy to help people erase others. this was bitter sweet. but as - when Sun requested to be taken out & he was back in the next ep - have a feeling 'Q' gonna come back too. even though given the whole vibe of this BL we might get a depressing end. ***************************************************************************************btw the reaper 'Q' meets in the future is Sun, so maybe him helping Sun change means Sun wont end up a reaper, but how that gonna help 'Q'? or maybe it's Sun's last wish - will reset 'Q's' future???

little did i know this episode was going to change the trajectory of my life

zukyumpire is a humilitation ritual role i think you have to been so genuine & earnest in your performance to get it right so when the crown started shuffling around on other people . . . fm;okovkm;efgqerefkmo;cmdk;cmk;avsmk; after the silly stuff that jyutaro couldn’t whole+heartedly commit too there was really nice moments though like with yua where he played to romance genre perfection. i think jyutaro has grown more with m!lk to be able to make fun of himself & portray this type of character better in the future so let me hope for a future for him hehehe ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ i actually thought this was a cool episode ，this was kind’ve a cool way to talk about cults to kids indirectly. make+up team leveled up these episodes though omg haggard zukyumpire looked good afffff & especially renge at the end of the episode. this had a great trio fight also ，before valvard joined in however i did not like how segmented gotchard & majade’s scuffs were. i also really enjoyed the ending where we reconnect with the main civillian & see her doing well professionally & confidence+wise it was a really nice thing ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ one thing i am a little confused about is when the sisters are first defeated ，lachesisis a doll that disintegrates. like i guess she was just using it as a conduit but like . . . touch on it.

given the last meal i was sure Sun was ask…

given the last meal i was sure Sun was ask 'Q' to delete himself - but understandable that he took himself out - putting an end to his suffering. but that is the problem with him he is too impulsive & from the start he should've demanded to understand the consequence's of his request. still there is so much i don't get & i have a feeling like i am watching a show put on stage about a Greek mythology where the language is old-timey making understand a lot of it impossible, even without the addition of analogies & symbolism. i need someone to simplify this sh* t - cause as is i am lost & bored, wondering most of the time am i getting it right & what am i missing... *************************************************************************************************also the convo between 'Q' & the flower/pub shop owner - is he Rain?!? how he connected to Sun's future? was he the one dying & 'Q' came to his bed-side?

am sure 90% of this is going over my head…

am sure 90% of this is going over my head & i donno if it's cause i can't understand the symbolism of it all, or cause i am not catching the hints that r being dropped - well maybe it's a combination of both. either way it's turn into a really frustrating watch - both leads r either weeping or raging - well Sun more then 'Q' - ************************************************************had figured out a while back that the reason 'Q' showed-up at Sun's was cause he happened to drop into that weird flower-shop & bar combo. something was off from the word go & idk what Sun was singled out but he was & this "gift" was more a punishment then a 2nd chance at love - maybe if he survives the punishment he will be rewarded at the end with love. but considering 'Q' went through a similar fate only to end up as a half cupid that was still suffering maybe not **********************still this doesn't help me figure out what the point of all this is, as not one wish ever gave Sun what he wanted - if anything it progressively got worse. & still wondering after every new wish does the old wish get deleted - cause if this time Rain was the one that got erased, deleting a new human aint gonna help bring him back - no??? like i said i am confused

Dealing with reality

Got my wish for the trio conversation. Director Jiang likes QingCheng and Man reminds him he’s celebrating his 40th bday.🤣 Due to traffic they end up at QingCheng’s place where three guys think they are going to bully her into returning a watch. There is a showdown and a video but the truth of it was her roomie that went out with MuSun assumed QingCheng’s identity and stole the watch. She tried to deny it, but when she’s buying out her lease agreement and telling QingCheng to find a place to lay low, it’s very clear who the guilty party is. QingCheng just tells her to get out and not even surprised this happened. She’s used to betrayal. She did tell her to stop impersonating her as she walked out the door. The older group is kinda shocked but she acted like no big deal. Later the three reveal their issues like I wanted last episode. I think the biggest shock was Mr ten year free pass.I knew QingCheng would have a solution for Man. She is not given many lines, but the ones she delivers carry weight. She suggested Man use him like part of a script and to make it the story she wanted. After the dust settled from pondering, Man did exactly that. I am not sure if Director Jiang is playing along or serendipity, but it was fun watching MuSun’s words get played back at him. 🤣He found it harder when he was the one that needed to make way for understanding. He has even now included a drawer for her, but at the same time he makes it clear he is not in it for the long haul. He claims to not want to take care of anybody and yet he tenderly watches over her comfort when he thinks she’s most unaware. He is a mixed bag but for now her choice. QingCheng is looking for a new place and keeping track of every penny. KaiXi is taking care of her son and figuring out what her path will be while Mr free pass is out drinking with all his 40 yr old frat buddies that wanna party instead of be with their families. Man takes a candid shot of her most dreaded time and labels it ‘life’. Her post is liked by everybody.

Foreboding

As Man hugs MuSun after his request to define fulfilled commitment, she backed down but her look shows how empty she feels as her eyes sadden over his shoulder. KaiXi accidentally discovered a way to enterprise….cooking vlogs. Man and QingCheng help her make one and even Chen Mian reacts positively. He also offers suggestions which the young videographer doesn’t want to deal with because it requires too much effort. Man takes him aside and reminds him he’s not the only talent overlooked, but it is hard to say if this made enough of an impression for him to do the job he is capable of. KaiXi is out with a friend as their children are playing and gossip begins from the friend. KaiXi sees the writing in the wall for her as well getting kicked out with a small bag and Tiao with Nannie’s. Her fears are confirmed when he has the audacity to explain that because he only has ten years left he has no intention of depriving himself of anything. He promises to go back to being the dutiful husband after his ten year free pas🤬🙄 Even quiet tempered KaiXi asked him if he even heard himself. There is no point wasting more effort on this man. She needs to move on and soon. Man received similar foreboding when MuSun said leaving and wanted her away from his things while he was gone. To not even rate possession status was quite a blow. I wish these two would have talked about their men and how sad they were, but both accepted lamenting a futile effort. Man said would kill the mood, but it was killed before their conversation even started. Both of these women need to move on and know it, but there is a comfort in just accepting status quo with no fuss or muss to get through the day. KaiXi often grieves me with making Man her thinking part of brain. I don’t know why she thinks Man is so much smarter. And Man doesn’t use any of her research skills to see the truth of how happy KaiXi’s life really is. These two need much more than a spa day to deal with their red flags. Here QingCheng would have been a much needed ally and her past experiences would have resonated with her older friends. QingCheng grew up with a father red flag so she has more actual experience in dealing with the fallout. She has more reasonable expectations and she could have helped with the vlog and MuSun’s semantics. This is where the drama fails a bit because the three think and reason better together and this was a missed opportunity.

Brothers endure

There was a company that could make their efforts work, but they wanted control of research and development. The one gave up his part of the company to take care of his dad who had cancer. Three years later he comes back to his partner wanting a job. Their reunion is poignant as the surgical device that saved his dad was a result of their work. The one that held the company together needed help with coupling device so it was timely his friend returned. What was made clear is the partner that stayed never accepted the resignation and had waited for his friend to return. Their company became a success after their long trial of near misses. They show them at the end coming in dressed like Blues Brothers 😂🤣

Stock market established

As expected the young man tried to end himself jumping off a building. He is in hospital with chance of recovery after losing all his family’s savings. The friend who introduced him to the black market went to take care of the boss only to find out he was only the face of the boss. The real black market leader was posing as a legitimate stock trader. They deliberately manipulated the market to cheat average investors of their savings. They even made sure it would happen.😝😡As the story unfolds they are trying to freeze trade so that a legitimate market won’t take hold. Thanks to the persistence of coffee guy and one trustworthy stock investor , stocks were traded and the stock manipulators arrested. There is hope that the young man will recover and Shenzhen has a stock market that is true trade rather than gambling hall in disguise.

Whether or no to preserve the mandrakes

Things seem to be headed the way of the developer. They have dumped construction materials in the mandrake site and plan to destroy them all. The project leader even sent thugs to beat up the environmental representative hoping he wouldn’t make the council meeting. When his daughter asked if the frogs had a home when they got a new one, he had no response. At the meeting he affirmed the village would relocate and let the land be developed. But he undermined their intentions to coast by fighting for the mandrake grove. It was determined that these trees would be protected at all cost. To this day, there is a remnant of the mandrake forest that is still protected. I hope the frogs came back to sing their happiness.
