* My favorite scene of the episode was seeing Gu Jin Zhao still hesitating over whether she made the right decision accepting the marriage proposal, to the point that she needed to go see Chen Yan Yun late at night. And the moment she finally met CYY, saw his face, and looked into his eyes… she realized this gamble was worth taking. * Finally confirmed that our green-flag Ji Yao cousin only has sibling love for Gu Jin Zhao. He is so supportive and even prepared a thick stack of cash for her dowry. Gosh, this guy is seriously cash rich. * Gu Lian’s cousin is freaking toxic — jealous, insecure, and completely lacking substance and her mother still questioning why grandma is returning all the dowry to gu jing zhao, wow i am speechless but sadly this really exist in chinese culture!
i’m sorry, but people are being so weird about winwin in the comments. what do you mean we’re forcing ourselves…
I think you might be taking all these comments too seriously. Relax and enjoy the show. The fact that so many commenters already hate Ye Xian just shows he’s doing a great job portraying such a complex character.
As someone who enjoys analysing acting techniques, I’ve noticed how much he relies on subtle microexpressions and slight shifts in his gaze to convey Ye Xian’s cunningness and inner calculations. I personally appreciated that but Mainstream viewers may not focus on those technical details, but they still instinctively react to what he’s delivering So if the overall response is that viewers genuinely dislike the character, then it’s safe to say he did his job well.
is Ye Xian good or bad? can he be trusted with Jin Zhao and Chen Yan Yun? or will he betrayed them? 🤔
I think he shares the same vision and goal as chen yan yun for the greater good of people. i am more worried about chen xuan qing the nephew when he is back.
I always enjoy Chen Yan Yun and Madam Chen’s gossiping and bantering scenes, and this time it was all about convincing his mother to let him marry Gu Jin Zhao.
Madam Chen’s boiling frustration face the moment she realized she was the last person to know was hilarious. But it didn’t take long for Chen Yan Yun to convince her. The moment he admitted that he genuinely liked Gu Jin Zhao and naturally wanted to marry her, Madam Chen softened and let go. And also realized it must have started during the coming of age ceremony….ahhh moms know best.

Ci sha in more romance dramas. He is so good at it and he has the looks!
That reaction was
“Classic boy mom reaction — seething, but ultimately powerless.”
Now this FL is the complete opposite !
