I like this smile! Anyways, highlight of the episode:
showdown between Yi Chen and Ying Hue.
Mo Sheng’s at a department store and sees a jacket she wants
to buy for Yi Chen. She swipes Yi Chen’s card and apparently in Shanghai, she
has to “sign” Yi Chen’s name as well. She smiles as she writes down “He Yi
Chen” in the way that Yi Chen taught her in the past.
She gives him the present after he picks her up. She cutely
tells him that she used his card to buy his present. Yi Chen smiles at that and
casually, ever so casually, puts his arm around Mo Sheng. She also tells him he
can bring her to the university gathering wearing this coat.
However, unbeknownst to them, they’re being stalked by Ying
Hue (with his awesome sunglasses).
Mo Sheng’s staring at the clock wondering whether Yi Chen’s
going to leave for the university gathering but he says he’s not attending. Mo
Sheng depressingly settles to go with Lawyer Yuan and the others but Yi Chen
gives in. He tells her, “Don’t bother other people”. She smile-winks at that.
They take a walk around the university and Mo Sheng recalls
her first day of school, the day she fell in love with Yi Chen. He comments,
“Yes, it really was an unlucky day.” Mo Sheng playfully glares at him.
She also decides to buy two school T-shirts and once again;
she uses Yi Chen’s money because she forgot her purse (containing her wallet
and cellphone). He willingly gives it to her with a smile. Buying it wasn’t
enough, they also have to wear it. Yi Chen actually looks pretty bad in it LOL.
Everyone walking buy is giving them weird looks. Yi Chen is totally
self-conscious while Mo Sheng is totally oblivious (or she’s embracing this
moment, lol).
They walk around some more and stop by to take pictures of her
old dormitory. There’s finally something Yi Chen’s bad at: photography. Mo
Sheng complains that he made her look fat in the picture and he, protecting his
pride, tells her, “You really do look like this.” Mo Sheng laughs at that.
Their bickering fun is over as he gets called over to join
the other lawyers (in the law department). Yi Chen wants her to go but she’s firm
on not going because she’s not familiar with anyone. Yi Chen has no choice but
to hand over his phone to her.
One of the lawyers ask Lawyer Yuan whether Yi Chen has a
girlfriend so that he can introduce someone to him. Lawyer Yuan brazenly
confirms that Yi Chen doesn’t have a girlfriend. Well, it’s true; a girlfriend
is not a wife.
On Mo Sheng’s side, she wanders around and comes across a
speech and it’s given by none other than Ying Hue (remember he was also from
this university). We hear a little bit more about his ex-girlfriend. They were
a match made in heaven: she was the prettiest girl and he was the smartest in
the university. Nevertheless, she left him back then because he was poor. Mo
Sheng doesn’t get to finish to listen to his speech because a girl falls right
in front her and she takes her to the nurse’s office.
Away from the speech now, Mo Sheng, realizing that Ying Hue
has returned to Shanghai, recalls all the sad events she experienced in the
States and suddenly really misses Yi Chen to the point that she voices it out
loud in their phone call. He’s speechless to that as it’s the first time Mo
Sheng’s expressed her feelings so frankly. After being silent for a few
seconds, Yi Chen tells her to quickly come join him (and his colleagues) for
lunch. I like how they milk out Yi Chen’s scenes because after the phone call
we get a shot of him still gathering himself after being told “I miss you.”
Then we get a random bike scene. I don’t know how it
happened, it just did. Maybe she got lost? But where’d they’d get the bike? I
guess he’s being nice to her because she told him she misses him?
They arrive at the restaurant but they’re still waiting for
a table. Then, suddenly, she gets recognized by one of Ying Hui’s colleague and
he keeps calling her Mrs. Ying. Yi Chen grabs hold of Mo Sheng’s hand and is
just about to save her but she thinks she has to save him from the possible
embarrassment (of how he married a divorce woman) in front of all his
colleagues, so she tells the man that he has the wrong person. Yi Chen’s disappointed
at that because he wanted to clarify.
At this same moment, Ying Hue walks by (ever so coolly…) and
glances at the two holding hands. The man calls out to Ying Hue asking him to
confirm whether Mo Sheng was his wife. To put us all at ease, he denies it.
Ying Hue walks away (trying to look cool) but turns his head
to catch a glimpse of Yi Chen while Yi Chen stares fixatedly at his direction. Romantic.
Really. Anyways, through that encounter, Yi Chen discovers the identity of her
ex-husband.
(Yi Chen’s actually a lot calmer that I thought he’d be when
he finally encounters her supposed ex… Not exciting D: )
It’s finally lunch time but to Mo Sheng’s dismay, she’s
infamous in the law department. Apparently, that law professor, who lectured Yi
Chen to educate not only himself but also his family (which was the same
professor that invited him over for dinner a couple of episodes ago) retells
that tale every year to his students. Wow, what an embarrassment. So basically,
everyone at lunch knows about her and Yi Chen.
He excuses himself and, another coincidence, he bumps into
Ying Hue in the washroom. Bam! They both stop in their tracks as they pass by
each other.
Dinner is over and Yi Chen princess carries the drunk Mo
Sheng back to bed and sweetly kisses her forehead. He asks her while she’s
asleep, “Has he kissed you like this too? Was he this close to you too? Why did
you come back?” Psst, notice her clothes are changed again.
The next morning they have breakfast together and this time Mo
Sheng’s nervous about Ying Hui’s issues. He assures her that he’s over about
her past but he wishes that the topic doesn’t surface.
