Pei, you idiot. You thought you could get a girl who doesn't like you to start liking you by kicking the man that she still loves when he's down? What a pathetic human being.
I was about to curse out the writer if they made HX dumb enough to take that scarf. But she's smart and level-headed. Friendly, yeah, but she knows where to draw the line. And to be fair, Pei hasn't done anything wrong to her. In his head, he's just pursuing a single woman who tried to friendzone him. If she'd accepted his gift, that would've sent the wrong message.
In the next episodes, Pei gets a reality check on his "great love." Then a short jealousy stint from HX (it's always funny when couples take turns getting jealous over nothing). After that, the other shoe drops on our main couple.
Here's what I'm expecting: 1. Pei gets redeemed. He stands up to his dad and helps Yu crack his case. 2. HX breaks up with Yu for a bit because of her father. I'm expecting a lot of tears 3. The couple fights their way back to each other.
I figure the writer might force in this side couple at the last second, and I'm not feeling it. They should've had Zhao and Wang as a dating pair instead of being married. That whole subplot came off shallow. Or they could've done more to develop Zhao and Gong emotionally. The smarter move is just leaving them as friends. Let's end this drama on a solid note!
While I believe his basic instinct is to use the HX to trigger Yu, I think he's really falling for HX. We all know he has no chance, but he doesn't know that. What he does next, when he learns about HX's connection to that accident, will determine whether he becomes another crazy and obsessive sml, or a pitiful sml who experiences some character growth.
We are on the same page. I commented earlier that I bet that mother went straight home and told her husband about…
Well said. I wonder if they'll face this hardship together as promised. Our leads' relationship is supposed to be the opposite of Xiao's failed marriage. So they should remain strong. So I don't think Hu Xiu will abandon Yu, but she also loves her father, which will cause a major dilemma.
Hu Xiu is so adorable and charming. She can be assertive one minute, then bubbly, shy, and a bit clumsy around Zhi Yu. Lu Yu Xiao plays the girl in love so perfectly. You can consistently tell when she's shy and nervous, flirty, or angry. Her personality reminds me of Wen Yi Fan from First Frost and Shen Xi Fan from The Best Thing.
First of all this jerk Pei doesn’t even know what's FL's feeling for him then how come this creep so confidently…
Yeah, I wish she would stop being so polite to him. But it's in her nature to be nice to people. Unfortunately, Pei will continue to misread the situation until it's revealed that HX is his stepbrother's girlfriend.
I think I see where this is going. The mother will speak to the father about giving Hu Xiu a chance. The father will conduct a background check, which will reveal that she's connected to that accident. He will tell Pei Zhen. Pei Zhen will try to play white knight until he finds out that Hu Xiu is Zhi Yu's girlfriend. This could go two ways: Pei Zhen could be selfless and try to help the situation so as not to hurt Hu Xiu, or he could be petty to torment Zhi Yu. Whatever he does, I don't really care. But I suspect the writers will redeem Pei Zhen's character (I'm not sure what happened in the novel). But ultimately, it will be Hu Xiu's father who causes the temporary breakup we're anticipating.
He has his own baggage to settle with & HX misread the situation (you can see how preoccuppied his mind when…
Chasing her and kissing her was way more than an apology. Actions beat words in this situation. It showed he’s just as crazy about her and couldn’t wait around for a speech. She was happy with it too—she got startled at first, but she welcomed it right after. So I’m not sure what the poster is even complaining about. lol
Why do people keep defending red flag behavior?I loved the drama, but the male lead going cold after leading her…
That's human nature. Relationships get complicated and messy. What did you expect? Him to throw away his dignity and beg? He's always had a conscience. He liked her and backed her from the start. He let her build confidence and chase her career, protected her, and looked out for her. Toxic guys don't do that. Being imperfect doesn't make him toxic. News flash: perfect people and relationships don't exist.
Wait did he by accident sign his real name on a document he gave her from the past or his father’s in his hurry…
yea, buckle up. You know what's coming. First the main couple has to overcome one set of obstacles to be together. Then, once they're happy together and start dating, the other shoe drops. lmao
Am I the only one who's looking forward to seeing Pei Zhen's delusion about Hu Xiu shattered into a million pieces? I can't wait for him to find out that the girl he likes (I doubt he really likes her) is dating his younger brother, and she's madly in love with him. lol

Pei Zhen: "I will protect her."
Arrogant Pei Pei thinks he's a main character lmao.
