This is a moment of Daddy Good Deeds that I'd like to share :)
Unlike Linda's previous characters where they all had a mental break down due to a break up, Yu Chu first went into denial, pretending to be happy...then gradually broke down. So no dramatic scene in here...but a more realistic (I think) way for someone to react, especially because of her cheerful personality.
Yu Chu (Linda Chung) is currently dating Lap Shun (Chris Lai). Unfortunately, she and Lam Fat (Steven Ma) was walking down the street...they spotted Lap Shun with another girl! She's not simply a friend, cousin or sister :P While the shocked Yu Chu was trying to understand what is going on, the girl suddenly said that her stomach hurts...turns out that she is pregnant. DUN DUN DUN!
While Lap Shun was with the girl, Yu Chu just sad outside to wait for him to come out....You could tell that she was very nervous during the wait. Probably hoping what she just saw was not true....
When he got out...all he said to her was, "I'm sorry." Yu Chu was utterly shocked when she asked him if that girl is the third woman...but in return found out that she (Yu Chu) was actually the third party. Even worse, the girl is actually his wife! Right at that moment, Yu Chu attempted to slap him but was stopped by her father (Ha Yu) who suddenly arrived. He told his daughter that she's a cop and that a cop must not hit anybody...
Yi Man (Ha Yu) instead asked to talk to Lap Shun alone and actually gave him a nice punch. No matter how much Lap Shun tries to explain it, he is obviously the one at wrong to date another girl when he already have a wife. If he really loved Yu Chu, he shouldn't have lied to her either about going to China for work when he was actually going to see his wife. He just ended up hurting everyone...
On the other hand, I do acknowledge the fact how he decided to stick to his wife in the end. In previous series, you would frequently see a man leaving his wife for another woman even if they have children together (ex Ha Yu in Moonlight Resonance, Vincent Wong in Home Troopers (he did planned to...)). It is different in here though and that is why I sympathize with Lap Shun.
Though he is still wrong, you could tell that he regretted what he did when he didn't try to dodge or protect himself when Yi Man threw out the second punch. It was actually very touching when Lap shun talked about how he felt touching his baby in the mother's stomach, and how he wanted to raise and watch his child grow. Yi Man understood that same feeling too and that's why he did not throw out that second punch. While there are some men who could easily leave their child behind...Lap Shun made the decision to stay by the baby's side even though he did say he loved Yu Chu. He's actually not a bad guy. I'd just say that he is a man who made a mistake...
I sense that Lap Shun was true with their relationship and that he wasn't just messing around. At least Yu Chu did not fall in love with a complete jerk....that plays around with random women but at least a decent guy.
Hearing everything Lap Shun said to Man Yi, Yu Chu silently let out her tears...understanding that her relationship with Lap Shun is now over. Do you guys think that she blamed him for lying to her or the wife for separating them apart? She didn't blame either of them but actually ended up blaming herself for being stupid :/
Aside from Yu Chu, let's also talk about Lam Fat. This character of Steven's remind me alot of him in Better Halves. He is not the absolute goody two shoes guy (which he do portray often), but yet realistic in a sense that even though he is nice, it's not the kind of nice that will go out of his way to help other people. In fact, he would consider himself first and is relatively obsess with money.
Ok, what do you guys think of this question: Can money buy happiness? Technically saying, we can't because happiness is not a merchandise....but realistically, money "helps" :P No joke there. I'm not talking about being a billionaire but just simply having an stable income that can support yourself/family. Though loving someone cannot be measured by money, I still believe that without a stable income, a couple who really love each other can eventually break up (on a general basis). Why? No doubt arguments will tend to arise...and as a girl, I personally want someone that can give me a sense of security and knowing that he can take care of the family. How could one be happy always worrying whether they have enough money to last the month (rent, food and other bills) or not? Of course, I'm not saying I'm going to marry someone base on their wealth :P That is just insane.
Similar to Lam Fat, I like money...but that does not mean I'll go out of my ways to get them. Instead, he's a caring and loyal friend. Not super hero style but still a man with a clear conscience.
After the break-up, Yu Chu only cleaned and eat (I love how they referred to old tvb series to tell the symptoms of a broken heart...which Yu Chu had). lols I must say that this part was very funny! Yu Chu was so focus cleaning the toilet, while eating her coconut bun. Haha abit unappetizing eh?
