I liked most of this episode but...

I didn't like Zhi Shu equating her sincerity based on the grades she got. He knows how much she struggles as a student. That felt unfair and the way he did it was humiliating to her.As much as his parents loved him, I don't think they realize how much he needs his autonomy at his age. He's a good kid and he'll figure things out but he needs the time and space to do it. Parents can't always make decisions for their kids when their kids are undecided. Or in Zhi Shu's case, he had decided not to attend Taiwan's best university, but his father wants him to re-take the exam. His parents need to respect his decisions. And this constant talk about deciding his marriage. It just puts him off Xiang Qin. Early on, he even said, "Even if I fall for you, that would never happen" or something like that.
