The Road to Splendor Episode 12

"What I fear is a world without you in it." — This episode was such a rollercoaster

What an intense and emotional rollercoaster this episode was! 😟🫢Neither Ling nor Tingyun could get any peace. In the army, there's Lu Dahu holding all possible grudges and envy against Ling; however, in town, it's Madam Zuo holding all the old grudges and looking for ways to torment Tingyun... 😔AND they all almost succeeded! The net of who is working for whom in Ganlin Town is insane, but they had better learn that they are messing with the wrong people, because interfering with Ling and Tingyun's lives will be their undoing. 🫣Luckily, nothing bad comes without some good — we got to see the army men's wives having Tingyun's back, and Ling's brothers being practically his ride-or-die team, and I think that extends to Tingyun too. The four of them trying to cheer her up with all the gifts after all the stress she went through because of Madam Zuo and her fear of losing Ling... 🫂Her saying: "It's not being a widow that I fear. What I fear is a world without you in it." And him cutting his own hair to add to hers... If those words and actions are not the equivalent of deep love, then please tell me what is? 🥹 In my opinion, that scene was one of the most beautiful ways of showing how deep love can be without actually saying it. ❤️
