[At Home with Love] Episode 11

I quite enjoyed this episode, and thought it went pretty fast. Just the more than half the series and we can see some romance arising and problems starting to unfold..

*The next morning, the three actually turned up to work =) That’s a sign of relief lol They seemed all happy and stuff and back at work when talking about their progress with their customers, each of them have mentioned Ben (the guy who got fired/ got two wives) and how they have had help from him, how it was hard for them to not refer to him as “si heng”. You can tell Lawrence isn’t all that angry at him anymore. Yoyo asks Lawrence whether they would need to start advertising for a new position and he replies it’s not necessary since there’s the 5 of them already (including Ben) ^^ and he goes out of the company. The agents are happy to hear Lawrence has forgiven him and is accepting him back (sounds like they planned it) . Just when Lawrence calls Ben on the mobile, they bumped into each other at the corner. Turns out Ben is with Raymond and that he had just signed the contract and been employed under Raymond’s company (their competitor)..awww…Lawrence was too late..damn.. You can tell Lawrence is upset, and Ben looked guilty, but they eventually talked it through (talking about the good-old days when they started out), and Lawrence told him they will always be friends and he wishes him all the best. This is such a big disadvantage to [Trustworthy Property] They lost their most experienced agent (after Lawrence) and is now working against them..

*The lady doctor tells Lawrence’s father that her father-in-law is sick and needs to
do an operation but will cost a lot of money (I think HK$300 000) and she can’t get enough funds so doesn’t know what to do. Lawrence’s father being a nice guy is determined to help her and borrows off his friends and asks Lawrence to take money out from the business. Lawrence is concerned that his father may be being too nice to a stranger he hasn’t known so long and that he may get tricked, but his father kept insisting the doctor is a nice person and is a ‘doctor’<-can't be a bad person *cough*cough* and really needs the money to save someone's life. Eventually, Lawrence does give in and his father takes all the money and gives it to her (she's taking it back to mainland China). Seeing she's going alone and it far away and may be dangerous, he goes off and accompanies her too. (This is bound to cause conflict..I keep having this feeling she's tricking his money. Just can't really trust someone with THAT much money ~_~ Lawrence's father doesn't seem the least suspicious..I think she's suspicious. What if she just runs away with the money? We'll just have to see..) *Yoyo and Lawrence passed by a jewellery store and there was a ring that particularly caught her attention. It costs $HK500 which was quite pricey, and Yoyo asked Lawrence if he could buy it for her, and he replied with that a guy can't buy a ring for any girl. They went in, and eventually Lawrence did some talk, bargaining, and some lies (?) about the quality of the ring and they got it for $HK100 , which made Yoyo really happy. Back at the car, Yoyo was wearing the ring on the pinky finger and Lawrence was teaching her not to because it was for divorcing and he eventually helped her put on the ring (can't remember which finger XD )I thought this scene was sorta cute lol Yoyo was moved I think =) *Natalie and Yoyo's bro have been going out for 7 days so far and is sad realise they only have about 300-ish days before Yoyo's bro has to go overseas for 6years +. I cannot see a better match for the two XD *Nancy tells Yoyo that Lawrence has asked Nancy to have dinner at his place and that she is planning to accept him back, and start a new relationship. *That night, Yoyo is upset that Lawrence and Nancy are getting back together so she calls Raymond out to keep her company (Funny how she thought of him when she's sad lol) He's so funny, he was going on about how he's really happy that she called him and that this was like their first day going out. She tells him she wants to drink and suggests going to his place. Raymond pretending he cares and tells her not to drink too much , but started buying a whole stack of bottles of alcohol and constantly pouring into her cup. *At his place, the drunk Yoyo is all upset and tells Raymond that she likes someone. Raymond keeping thinking she’s referring to him (which is weird! cos..why would he think that when she’s this sad?) He was saying to her how he’s here for her etc (the usual exaggerated style of talking) and she goes into tears and cries on his shoulder. He’s like “..you’re so touched that you’re crying” (xD) . She think vomits on him and he instantly shouts out a “eww! This is a VERY expensive shirt!!” The unpleased Raymond goes off to clean it off.

*While Lawrence and Nancy are preparing for dinner, the doggy kept barking at Nancy (the dog doesn’t want her to replace Ling (Yoyo)..eheh such a sensitive thing ^^) Nancy asks whether the dog doesn’t like her and Lawrence replies that the dog’s always like that (even though he knows what the dog is thinking). When lawrence is talking, he mentions Yoyo in every phrase which causes Nancy to maybe think a bit more, asking whether Yoyo comes to his place that often, and he replies with a yes..well because he’s teaching her stuff anf he gives her bits of stuff to do since she’s still learning. And then asked where the soya sauce was and he replied “Ling (Yoyo) said its at ..etc” lol If I was Nancy I would wonder too..
*While Lawrence was talking to the doggy, the drunk Yoyo calls him (listening thru the earplugs thing) talking about why he bought her a ring etc. Lawrence seemed pretty lost as to why she sounded drunk asking her whats the matter when Nancy comes from behind and hugs him. Nancy – not noticing he was on the phone, asks whether they can start their relationship again. At this moment, the drunk Yoyo tells Lawrence that she loves him, and doesn’t know what to do now. Lawrence is just shocked (loved the expression ^^) doesn’t know what to be thinking. I reckon the truth is, he likes her too.

On the other side, Raymond hears Yoyo talk on the phone and looks a bit disappointed she likes Lawrence. He was probably hoping to get Yoyo leave [Trustworthy Property] and work with him

*Another time, the rich guy comes back to find Nancy telling her he can’t give up on her and that he’s still after her. (ah~ he’ll probably win Nancy’s heart and then Lawrene can have Yoyo.lol)
*The next day, Raymond ‘s company has massive sales/customers after their new branch opened.(Looked a bit odd how so many people wanted to buy houses etc..looked more like buying very cheap stuff) They did however, offer for very low prices, some even more than half price reduced. This causes [Trustworthy Property] agents to start getting worried, since they aren’t having much customers. Raymond goes to find them and tell them straight in the face that they will keep expanding until they get rid of them. He was telling the 3 other agents to leave just like Ben did, because its the best way out and for them to just give up. “We don’t care about money, we care about winning” After watching this part, I was thinking..woah..looks like its the first time Raymond has been straightforward in what he wanted to say, rather than his usually pretending to be friendly-talk. That’s quite threatening to the business (same feeling when the CEO talks to Lawrence). I hope somehow they can make it through =S
