Honestly, all of this.Instead of viewing the leads as two very flawed yet genuinely good individuals still trying…
I think taking something from another person without their permission is called theft by definition, regardless of your intentions 😂And I am preeettyy sure that if Muyang would have asked Fei Ni for the money to buy fish she would have said no. I’m not disparaging Muyang, but rather calling out the double standards and the people who are putting him on a pedestal and trampling over Fei Ni. I totally know that Muyang had the sweetest of intentions and I’m not even remotely mad at him. In fact, this show may be one of my top favorite dramas. But I get where Fei Ni’s reservations are coming from. And nowhere in any of my posts did I label Muyang as a thief. He stole, absolutely, but I wouldn’t throw that label at him. 🤷🏼♀️

Yes!! When people think that the fake marriage contract is a bigger offense than stealing money. 👏🏻 This 💯. I couldn’t stand the Fei Ni hate so I blocked people on here lol
Not us waiting 17 episodes for this 2 second kiss...but I can't complain
If y’all thought that Fei Ni would go straight from being 💯avoidant of anything even remotely hinting of physical attraction to making out for her first kiss then you missed a lot of her characterization since the beginning 😂
I am convinced at this point that almost every other secondary romantic relationship in this drama is just being used to highlight how amazing Fei Ni and Muyang are 😂
I still love this drama so much, sad we are already past half way, I could watch so many eps of this. I keep smiling…
I hope they kiss. But they might not :/ I saw the preview, but I can see her pulling away. She didn’t tell him out loud that she liked him, she thought it, so yeah 😬
A heartwarming drama. But the 2nd ML and FL is such a waste of resources. They are so out of place in this innocent…
I think I agree with what you’re saying outside of calling the second leads a waste of resources. I do find their relationship confusing and a bit convoluted, and I am hoping that I will catch more details of their romance when I rewatch the drama. Both of them got married for their own agendas, both of them knew it, and yet both of them are acting like the other person is hurting / betraying them. It’s so strange. So what if he married you because you looked like his ex? You married him for his status and to improve your career opportunities. I don’t really understand why Muyang’s sister keeps taking jabs at the doctor because of his reason for marrying. And yet the doctor is also hurt that she took off to join a math team. It’s so strange to me.
But what is even more odd in my mind is how the second leads are considered by a lot of others as the more mature relationship. I disagree. The second leads suck at communicating, they use sex to cover up their unresolved issues, they don’t work as a team and they are in this game of push and pull.
Whereas Muyang and Fei Ni communicate like adults, apologize, resolve conflict quickly and kindly, listen to each other, validate each other’s perspective, support each other in pursuing their goals and then they play and have fun together. Sure, they’re less experienced in the sexual realm of things and they’re a little naive, but the way they are going about building the physical intimacy is much more mature and respectful than using sex to cover up problems and avoid resolving the deeper issues.
If anything, I think the second lead’s romance is highlighting the strengths of the main couple.
i think they'll have their first kiss in ep 17, according to the teaser
I’m not sure if it will be or not tbh. She didn’t tell him out loud that she liked him - she thought it in her head. He leaned in for a kiss before the preview changed, so I am expecting her to deflect again tbh
