"Between the Flowers" is about to move towards the final chapter, and Zhang Ziyu's appearance seems to give Mai Chenghuan a chance to win. However, there's so much more to the story than that.
Zhang Ziyu looks stubborn on the surface, but she hides a deep desire for maternal love. Her mother Zhang Peisheng devoted herself to her career, but she treated Zhang Ziyu as cold, and regarded her career as more important than everything. In order to attract her mother's attention, perhaps also to take revenge, Zhang Ziyu played the role of a bad girl, and even joined Xing'anli to oppose her mother. All this allowed Mai Chenghuan to sit firmly on the throne of victory, because with Zhang Ziyu's support, Zhang Peisheng did not dare to do anything to Mai Chenghuan and Xing'anli again.
However, there's more to this story than that. Yao Zhiming was also a highlight. He laughed at himself for being a homeless stray cat because he had no other relatives except Chen Shuzhen. Yao Zhiming's father Yao Renfu is doing well, but their relationship has long been broken, Yao Renfu is just a burden to eat, drink and have fun, Chen Shuzhen even admonished Yao Zhiming in his last words not to be dragged down by him. However, Yao Zhiming found a sense of home with Chan Shuzhen, especially after spending time with Mak and his family, and his life changed dramatically. He understands that career is not the whole of life, and he also understands the preciousness of love and family affection. Yao Zhiming's relationship with Mak Chenghuan is getting better and better, and he has become the biggest winner of the whole play. Although he originally came to Tan Shuzhen to acquire Hung An-ri, he gave up that opportunity and opted for a more liberal lifestyle, which was a positive change.
The charm of "Between the Flowers" lies in the fact that each character has a rich inner world and growth trajectory. Zhang Ziyu's strength and weakness are intertwined, Zhang Peisheng's persistence and paranoia, Yao Zhiming's confusion and awakening, and Mak Chenghuan's tenacity and warmth constitute a colorful picture.
The ending of the story may not be perfect, but each character is constantly growing and changing, and that's the most touching part. In this story, we see the complexity and diversity of human nature, but also the power of love and understanding. May everyone find their own light in life and become a winner in their own life.
