iariaFun cute episode.
+ Mei/KO ♥ I love them and wish we'd gotten more time with them. But this episode gave so much and I'm thankful for that. They were completely delightful at the beginning.
I loved K.O. showing up to bribe Mei with food. I loved him writing and list and ordering Mei to go shopping and then when Mei was asked clarification decided it would be easy to go with him. Although give Mei credit for knowing there were different types of spatulas and asking instead of assuming. And then upped the bribe by cleaning the main room along with with making a delicious dinner. The whole thing was so delightfully domestic. I also liked that K.O. opened up a little about his (sad) past. I loved KO just stating that he would be moving in. Then adding he'd do all the cooking and cleaning, before asking if Mei wanted him to move in. Mei's "yeah" and satisfied grin was great. He should be satisfied! That's the luckiest best deal ever.
Honestly I think KO is a lot like Nai re: romance. Not canon but IMO he totally tracked down his game spouse and then inserted himself into Mei's life via food bribery. He hacked Zhi Yi's computers getting Nai's attention and than offered up his services for free to insert himself further in Mei's life. And now he's invited himself into Mei's home and made him an offer he knew wouldn't be refused. He is totally using the same romance playbook as Nai. I believe in him! Mei will find himself in a romantic relationship before too long lol. Although with Mei's obliviousness I wonder if he might not be in a relationship long before he realises it.
+ The swim race was great. I like how much Weiwei and Mei are positioned together. I loved Mei getting all aggressive in extolling K.O.'s virtues, supporting and praising him. I love that K.O. reacted by agreeing to the race. I loved Weiwei getting all 'hah I win' about it. I love when Mei demanded another race K.O. blackmailed Nai into letting him win (no win, no bbq) to make Mei happy and look good in front of him. And then when K.O. learned Mei didn't believe in him he got angry and left. Even though he cheated in the first place! Very fun.
+ Yugong has always loved teasing Weiwei about her relationship with Nai (this time wondering why she was so flushed after it took them so long to get there). I enjoy it and it's great seeing him turn that same teasing on Mei re: K.O. ("you look like you're hungry for the chef").
+ I was a little annoyed when Weiwei decided she was going to play Nai's character for the food duels and then after losing Nai came in to help her by telling her what moves to do. I'm with Yugong, that's unfair! Nai was already banned! Just let her play her own character and awesomely kick their asses herself.
+ I liked Shaoxiang's goodbye letter to Weiwei and Nai.
+ Mei giving on of the skewers to K.O. was nice. I like when they give each other food.
+ A little annoyed that after 2 years Zhi Yi Technology still hasn't hired any women.
+ Weiwei is pretty naive on sexual matters (why Nai wanted to be alone with her, why her serving him oysters is worth noting, etc) but after two years together with him?! Though she did get Xiao Ling's 'wrestling' comment eventually. ... They have 'wrestled' at this point right???
+ The photographer calling Nai 'eye-candy' and telling him to hide behind a tree - lol.
+ Erxi and Cao Guang, sigh. Whatever.
+ I enjoyed all the fiancee back-and-forth.
