WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you DO NOT want to be spoiled, please DO NOT read. You have been warned.

Yup, it’s serious. It’s not rocket science. Yet there was always hope lingering around them.

I think the person who should be apologizing didn’t even say it yet. It’s honestly not Hai Sheng’s fault. Yes, it’s mean, but it’s the truth–regardless of their good deeds and/or intent at that time. It’s just too frustrating and too hard not to feel strongly against the situation. Shan Ren had to ruin the moment with their bond YET it’s true. It’s going to affect them more than that. Ding Hao’s going to get creamed again. But I could feel the irony when someone was thinking they were a bunch of babies before. So which way is it, people? Either be hard on them so they could learn and grow or baby them. Can’t pick both.

Who could eat or drink, right? It was getting too hectic. Wow, what a birthday present for Luo Gang, knowing that he won’t be able to join the special operations unit anymore. They had no idea. The others were all heart yet it’s just so sad seeing the inevitable unfolding.

More dramatic scenes as Su Qing was confronting Hao Zhi. I’m getting irked again. Just because Su Qing had ruined Wu Yong and Xiao Yan’s chance. It wasn’t like Wu Yong would progress any faster yet it was like so funny to see them being teased by others. Sort of like acknowledgment. Yet it was cut short. Su Qing pulled the ultimatum on him? Honestly, I don’t like it that she was saying how he was ignoring her and/or not talking her since he’s a tad BUSY here. It wasn’t like he volunteered to come for a vacation. He was serving his duty. It was a misunderstanding and a childish attempt to get her jealous with the Xiao Yan situation, but otherwise… Ah Hou’s ‘Tian Bin Ren Sheng’ comment, LOL! Aww…Wu Yong lost his chance again after Su Qing, Hao Zhi, and You Shun left. OY! It’s getting too frustrating. Or I’m just plain impatient. To think that Wu Yong wouldn’t dare to confess. But I guess regarding important matters, he couldn’t help but hesitate.

So it was just the two of them again, brothers only. Luo Gang had no idea so he was still able to joke. Wonder how he would react when he realized he couldn’t enter that future anymore. From his past reactions, it seems obvious, but have to wait and see.

Familiar scene? Yup, some things never change. OMG! I didn’t expect to laugh but it was just so funny. Miss those old times. But this time, Hao Zhi’s there to help You Shun advertise. Interest sure decreased when You Shun announced the price, LOL! Oh, sounds better when he offered the special price, LOL! And Da Tong was trying it out or something? Looks too weird. Was he putting them on? Yup, he put them on. Poor Tian Bin and Ah Hou!

It was a once in a lifetime chance that Hai Sheng would share some tips so better shape up and listen, right? Oy, poor Ah Hou. Wu Yong already pulled him aside so can’t do anything – even if he tried. And was Tian Bin seriously believing in Hai Sheng’s technique? Like seriously? And Wu Tian Liang’s attempt to pray. OMG, it was getting out of control. Seriously. Were they using these scenes to undo the intense atmosphere created in the previous episode? Seriously. OMG! That was so messed up! Xiao De Ji traded Wu Tian Liang’s deity for the magic water? That was sooo messed up! Yet it wasn’t out of Xiao De Ji’s style, LOL!

And the important day arrived. Let’s see if all those protective methods and/or items would help them. (Yet when the powerful song was singing in the background, I kept thinking of the time they fixed the lyrics to help Hai Sheng confess to Yu Ting, LOL!) Oh, this would explain where they’re going to transfer to – according to the number they picked up from the box. So Ah Hou got into the air force. Wang Wei yelling at them again, LOL! Bo Wen was so happy. Great to see him striving toward his goal and feeling strong about something else other than his love life, lol. Shan Ren noticed Tian Bin’s ‘magic eye’, LOL! Tian Bin got into the special force. (OF course for those already seeking out info for part 2 and watch would know.) He had to ask? LOL! Wu Tian Liang couldn’t distinguish from left or right? LOL! Shan Ren rolling his eyes at Xiao De Ji’s comment, LOL! He has to endure them for several more days. Jia you, lol. 600? LOl! That’s 9, LOL! How could it be, right? There are like 10 numbers so… He rubbed the substance into his eyes. LOL! So much for luck.  So after You Shun was done with his tea-time chat, it was his turn to come up and chose a number. But before that could happen, Wang Wei summoned Xiao De Ji to his side to give some advice. LOL! You Shun made it into the special force operations, what was he frowning about? Hao Zhi was still hogging the deity doll? LOL! Well, he made it. They were still making fun of Xiao De Ji? So wrong yet it was so funny. He brought it onto himself. I think the deity was super good all right, punishing Xiao De Ji for snatching Wu Tian Liang’s possession and exchanging it with the magic water. LOL! (And just with the meeting among the officials, we know An Bang’s fate. Though not something that An Bang could accept yet it wasn’t too unrealistic since the transfer was the higher ranks officers’ decision. Not everything in life could work the way he wants. Well, it wasn’t some extreme sentence yet he looked so reluctant to leave for the training at that point.)

Were they celebrating too soon? But I guess they deserve the break. It was finally over. And Ding Hao stepped in to announce some news to them. After the announcements, they were left to celebrate again. Hai Sheng urging the others to cheer Luo Gang on. YAY! What? They brought wine into the place? Well, at least Da Tong did. What? A little? Do they know how it all begins with just a little? Honestly…yes, hope they don’t get caught. Could they control themselves? Da Tong wanted to switch games? LOL! They’re playing truth or dare? NICE… Let’s see what would unleash. YUP, I’m right, ‘a  little’ turned into much more.

Yup, party’s over. They didn’t get caught with the wine. But still… So they managed to negotiate some more time. Let’s keep it down this time. No one believed Wu Yong’s answer, LOL! Well, everyone who witnessed the almost confession scene wouldn’t be fooled. Yun Lin Wang Zi? OKAY… YUP, Ding Hao caught them. Who would drink water like that? Darn, he gave them one last chance and they pointed to Da Tong right away, LOL! So much for buddies. But it was true. That was funny that Da Tong didn’t hesitate to point out those who had drunk it earlier. Great, the blame game after Ding Hao left. So much for being buddies.

It was too torturing with Luo Gang holding so much hope. Yet An Bang couldn’t tell him. At least not at that time when he was still in the process of recovering. Sheng Nan’s words brought some more hope to Luo Gang with the promise of PK. Yes, she had no idea. An Bang couldn’t bear to listen anymore and made an excuse to leave. I don’t blame him. It was too torturing to listen, knowing he can’t do anything to change it. And An Bang, Heaven wasn’t toying with Luo Gang’s fate, the director and the script-writers were. (LOL!) But that scene was truly moving–with An Bang’s words, Sheng Nan’s words, and the flashbacks. Of course the song in the background as well.

Previews. Hey, Wu Yong and Xiao Yan’s face off? NICE… So Sheng Nan told Shan Ren the truth behind Luo Gang’s condition–AND Hai Sheng overheard them. OY! They were packing. Yup, it was getting to the point that they were going home anyway. What? Chen Hao Nan back to cause trouble? Great, something else to deal with. And then Hao Zhi and You Shun’s little show.

BTS. OMG! Ai Cheng really cranked it up. Darn, he let them apply the thing for real? Darn, sucks to be him! Jia you! Lucky Zhao Jun Ya did it super fast? Or at least it seemed to be one take? Ah Pang called out ‘Tang Feng’, LOL! GREAT! Thanks to him they had to do another take, LOL!

They played the song sang by Xiao Xiao Yu after the BTS. I haven’t paid attention to the MV much until now. Nice.
