#cdrama #BestChoiceEver starring Xu Kai and Yang Zi (Tong Nian from #GoGoSquid!)
Am I a sucker for haughty, ever-perturbed-yet-amused Xu Kai? Yes. And he's some kind of uber-rich snooty heir who (probably) falls in love with a middle-class lady?
*gets comfy*
ZOMG Xu Kai's smug amused face as he eats his apple and listens to this family conversation in episode 7! 😂😂😂
Cackling. I am CACKLING at this entire conversation with the apple. I had to watch it a couple times. Xu Kai's amused face is best face.
I wonder if these two turtles at Chenghuan's house are the same two turtles Xu Kai's character had in #SheAndHerPerfectHusband 🤔🤔🤔

Also, Granny is almost as scheme-y as her grandkid.
The ramp up to this secret wedding ceremony is like waiting for a car accident to happen.
My face: 😬😬😬😬😬
I love the dresses and blouses Chenghuan's mom wears. So lovely!

"Wanyu, what the hell are you doing?" 😅😅😅 her mom is desperate and a rollercoaster, and always denigrating her dad. He's finally asking the right question.
"You're planning to get engaged to me just to please your dad, right?" Well, not JUST to please his dad. But that played a huge role in this actually happening.
"Am I an idiot or are you an idiot?" I think there's plenty of idiocy to go around, here.
"Mom, the Xin family never does anything unless it benefits them. They're using Chenghuan." Chengzao is a smart cookie.
All that money the Xin family has, and Jialiang always looks rumpled and half off the couch. His sister has custom tailored dresses while pregnant, but he can't get well-fitted clothes?
It could go either way right now. Chenghuan could actually go through with this, considering the financial spot she's in... 🫣🫣🫣
How much of this is foreshadowing for when she finds out Granny's little secret? 🤔🫣
"You're embarrassing me in front of all of these people." - Wanyu, of all people, has the gall to say THAT to Chenghuan! Because Chenghuan is embarrassing HER. 😧
"... to fulfill the ambitions that you didn't accomplish when you were younger." OUCH TO THE MAX. No lies detected, though...
These riverwalk scenes are so scenic...
Uh, pretty sure she's moving out because you told her she was no longer your daughter. And then you slapped her across the face in front of so many family members.
Zhiming is ever the opportunist. I don't trust that guy's motives AT ALL.
MAO SEEING RIGHT THROUGH HIS BULLSHIT. YES, MAO MAO!
"Goodbye, scheming man!" Mao, I love you.
"She and I don't share the same values." Mom values financial stability over respecting her kid's wishes. 💔😢
Xu Kai's eyebrows every time Chenghuan reinforces that he is a brother, family, absolutely not a candidate for a love interest... 🤭 When they touched hands while doing laundry and he was all 😳 and she just reiterated that they are related... 😆
"Oh, sorry, her phone is dead. Friend me instead." Chengzao, cockblocking to defend his crush.
Zhiming, thinking about Chenghuan's BED SIZE, like a totally normal "brother"/work friend.

"Even if you were thrown into the desert, would you still happily plant cacti?" The dialogue on this show is 🤌
He is digging himself a pretty deep hole with all of these half-truths. "You are an excellent candidate for perfectly work related reasons and DEFINITELY not because I can use your relationship with our secretly rich grandmother in order to inherit her business and get my mom and myself promoted. Have some self-confidence!" 😇
When you no longer eye up the 30yo female lead's wardrobe for potential but instead sincerely appreciate the 60yo mom's blouses... what does that mean about your own age?
Asking for a friend.
I binged through 23 of the 37 episodes of the #cdrama #BestChoiceEver this weekend and now there's a *fishing* date and OOPS dad and bro are conveniently going fishing, too?
Too often, a cdrama is longer than its useful plot lines allow. I really hope this isn't that turning point. 😬
But! It is a good encouragement for me to watch pretty much ANYTHING ELSE for a day or two. 😅
@JillsJoy a new character?
We’ve just finished 20 and had the will reading - grandma is still a badass
