What is worse: being pathetically obsessive in love or being psychotically obsessive in love? Sorry, but I'm losing patience. LXY needs a freaking hobby instead of stalking JLF. How can any of you find this stuff romantic? It's creepy, and LXY gets away with it because the actor playing him is very good-looking.
Novel readers: Will JLF do some chasing in the future, or will LXY continue to chase JLF like a creepy and desperate stalker for the rest of the story? This is getting silly and exhausting to watch.
It's literally romance story so it will go in that direction only, maybe his mourning part was cut in those 7…
LXY went through such extremes to save his brother, only to watch him die in his arms. His priority in the aftermath should've been to mourn his brother for a while, not to follow the JLF around and apologize over and over. The drama treats the brother's death like an afterthought. While LXY betrayed JLF's trust, he ultimately saved her. In the end, LXY experienced the most pain because he literally had to kill his own brother. But somehow he's the one running around apologizing over and over.

I'm not saying he didn't break her trust. I'm not saying he shouldn't apologize and try to make amends. But reducing his character to a borderline stalker who constantly follows her to apologize over and over is pathetic, boring, and unimaginative.
LXY watched his brother die in his arms. You think the writer would give him some time to mourn? Nope. It would be more believable if the LXY were consumed by revenge, and his primary mission is to avenge his brother. But nah, they gotta lean into the cliché romance trope where the ML's entire identity is following the FL around, stalking her, and apologizing over and over like a sad, pathetic puppy. How many times must he apologize? It's so boring and unimaginative.

This is pure Chinese drama slop. Everything feels rushed. Almost every emotional scene feels unearned. It's one badly written trope after another. I wish the industry would focus on quality over quantity.
I'm sensing a pattern. First, the drama uses dramatic music and scenes to make the FL look like a strategic genius, only to make her look like an amateur who's way over her head.
That to me tells me that she indeed had feelings for him, that maybe she didn’t realize at the time. Of course…
But the drama failed to show that strong bond. They had a few encounters. But I didn’t get the feeling that they were best friends to the point that she would cry that much for him. There’s a difference between shedding tears for a friend and crying her eye out like her husband died.

It's ridiculous. A married woman should NEVER cried that hard for another man, unless they wanna make the point that she had feelings for him. I hate this.
The FL has cried harder for the sml than for the ML. I get he's her "friend" or whatever. But it's kinda ridiculous. As a man, I'd not want my wife to cry this hard for another man. Sorry, but this shit is so forced. I want all that crying and emotion for the ML, not shared with the "special" friend. I don't remember her crying that hard when she thought her husband was gravely injured after she served him divorced papers.
When did I say that?

That would be silly. She can't win alone. She's not God.
