Roses of 50 五十玫瑰

Roses of 50 is a very popular TV serial in China. 亲爱的 is very addicted to the serial for the past 2 weeks because the plot involves a young girl and a married man. Their age difference is 20 years. She felt that it was a touching story and the characters are quite similar to us. Eventually, the girl decided to leave the man, although he has seperated from his wife. 亲爱的 insisted that I watch the serial. There are probably many men in China having girlfriends or mistresses outside, so this story is really to tell them that at the end of the day 是没有好的下场的 (there is no happy ending).



Yesterday, I managed to catch the first episode in tudou. Not a very good start to the story as the girl has tied up the man and didn't allow him to return home to celebrate his wife's birthday. She later tried to commit suicide because she was pregnant, and he wanted her to go for abortion. This morning, I called my 亲爱的, and told her not to learn from the girl. After-all, this is only a story, and in real life we can always talk things over. I certainly hope that this is not going to our future.
