What i love about how they portrayed the FL is how steady and poised she is. She is only 15 but never had to act cute or silly to get our ML and 2ML attention.

Very slow burn but every scene between our leads are intense. The eyes, the pauses, the ML’s abs… it’s like a simmering pot waiting to explode, very satisfying to watch.

I assume There will be a timeskip. Her mom will die and she can’t marry in next three years.

I am anticipating there will be a lot of character growth once she goes through major life changes. You will see.

True, plus Jin zhao is no pushover herself. She cannot be easily manipulated.

They are probably the die hard Winwin fans who can’t take people saying his character is annoying. So the ML needs some bashing too.

I also don’t see him as manipulative. I think the issue is that his character still hasn’t been fully fleshed out yet, so neither the viewers nor the FL have completely fallen for him at this point. The initial impression of him being cold and calculating is still lingering. Ideally, as their relationship develops, we’ll gradually see more of his softer and warmer side come through.

I also love that we are slowly seeing how their relationship is transitioning from transactional/business to now opening up
About personal family issues.

And more abs won’t hurt

Our ever calm and controlled ML lost his coolness in ep 12, couldn’t even come up with a proper excuse to visit our FL.

Both Ml and Fl are good at creating that tension .

Our ML is an all in one package, what a good deal.

Yes. But what is more interesting to watch is how our always tensed FL is falling for him to the point of embroidering his cloak without her knowing she is falling for him.

I know i wasn’t impressed with pursuit of jade because zhang ling he is too pretty and perfect it got boring. 🤩 ci sha on the other hand is so intense to watch. He walking on the hallway is so powerful he can make the earth shake.

I disagree. He is very handsome, but manly handsome. Not the usual pretty boy idol actor handsome 😊

Not just eyes. He has strong presence from his martial arts background. perfect for warrior/ general roles. So masculine.

Turns out she is goint to beat him. What a contrast

So when chen san ye does a favor to our FL, she sends lavish personally curated gifts and gold embroidered cloak and with winwin she invites him for a drink like they are bros.

Yeah he has been working on it by doing theater playing a gay role in angels in america and morally gray character brutus in killing caesar. So far it has not translated to A good kdrama offer though. Hopefully this cameo role is just a stepping stone for him and not a signal that his career is going downward.

He needs to reinvent himself. all his last few roles have been boring, righthous, underdog type, he really needs a transformation.
