I am looking forward to seeing these two together. I watched the FL in Blossoms in Adversity and didn’t care a whole lot for the show even though I liked the actress. Obviously CZY is major draw, but it’ll be nice seeing familiar actors from other shows I’ve seen be in the same one 🤩

Nah. She kept lying to him, even after all of the sacrifices he made for her. She kept. on. lying. and using him. And she literally tried to steal one of his most precious items from him right after they had sex for the first time WHILE HE WAS STILL SLEEPING. No thanks - I hate relationships that are based on lies and keeping secrets. I also hate HATE love triangles and possessive SMLs. And I detest relational drama based on miscommunication or not communicating at all. I also hate breakups. Outside of the leads having chemistry, the lovely visuals and the ML being beautiful and talented, LITC has every single trope that I hate. :/ It’s totally cool that other people are into the show, but it’s not for me. After JBZ got struck by lighting carving her fake name into the marriage stone and she lied to him AGAIN and then immediately after that plotted to steal from him I was pretty much done.

Yah I keep coming back to this one as the best of them all.

Yeah lemme know if you like it! It starts off slow, but the plot builds as the story progresses.

Is there a version you liked better?

Excited about a blood-spattered Arthur Chen 🫶🏻

I saw a happy ending. Others have seen it as bittersweet / open. It does get very sad near the end.

I heard Marry My Husband (Japanese or Korean versions) is good. I am not sure of any others that follow this plot. 🤔

Me too 🫶🏻🥰

I loved Tingyan so much for all those reasons.

Oh that makes a lot of sense. I never got into the side plots and HATED how the HK arc was handled. Ugh. No wonder it felt so contrived and inconsistent with the rest of the show.

Yes it’s really good if you’re into the genre.

Yeah I periodically check on updates. If I can finally just see Neo in a drama with a story I can get into that would be great 🤌🏻I also think this is TSY’s first xianxia, which is fun 🤩

I appreciate you spelling out the novel. I wonder how closely the drama will follow the it. In a lot of other shows I’ve looked at that were based off a novel, a lot of them hardly followed the novels according to others who have read them.

It looks reaaaaalllly angsty 🫣I don’t mind angst as long as it’s not all there is. I am cautiously looking forward to this one because I loooove the leads.

I watched Tan Song Yun in Sword and the Brocade and loved her sm in that one. I love Neo, but sadly I have yet to find a show that I like with him in it. Didn’t make it through BftB due to the story, dropped LitC because of the constant lying, so honestly I am looking forward to seeing Tan Song Yun the most. She’s wonderful. I’m also hoping this will be the first show that I like with Neo in it.

This is my biggest complaints with IQIYI. The song subtitled SUCKED during Fated Hearts 😤Sounds like it’s the case with this one too (haven’t started yet, worried about this one having a SE).

Yeah no worries! If TFF doesn’t work for you, you could check out “The Best Thing” if you haven’t already. There are still some undertones of emotional abuse, but it’s less highlighted. The ML is also a lot softer. 😊

Yeah I mean you do you 😊I think some of us watch TV because it’s an escape from reality, not because we are looking for real life scenarios. Hence my favorite characters in fictional stories tend to be the ones that are rough around the edges. How many characters in loved shows have killed people or have darkness to them? I dunno 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yah I remember that in the beginning. I guess I didn’t see Sang Yan as unkind. Stand-offish, yes, but not mean.
