I think Jiang Tao wants her to quit with the way he is handling everything. He is trying to look like he isn't doing anything wrong and it is all Nan Ting coming up with the punishments. (If the previews are any indication we shall see that Cheng Xiao learns the truth). Granted Chang Xiao does have an attitude problem, but she is in a male dominated field and she has had to work extra hard to get where she is. Also, if she is at fault she does apologize and works extra hard to make sure she doesn't do it again. She has an exemplary flight record. You know if she had been a man she would have been a captain already and flying her own plane. But because Jiang Tao does not like female pilots (especially unmarried ones), he is finding every single fault and giving her ridiculous punishments. I don't understand why she just doesn't try to find a job at another airline. Would it be impossible with her flight record?

Also, I want to add.....I understand how upset that passenger is about not seeing her dad. But couldn't they do a video call or conference with the hospital. I mean phones are basically face to face communications now. I know, I know it is not the same as being there or holding their hand, but at least it is better than nothing. (btw I am only 20 mins into episode 7 so if they do this or anything else than that is why I don't know)

Ok I am so very aggravated about the flight delay then cancellation thing. First of all they were delayed because the main Captain called maintenance to fix the wiper. Why did the airline not already have that problem fixed? Why did they get the passengers on a plane in the first place when there was situation that needed to be fixed? But they decide to push all the blame on the female pilot because she called the police to get a sexual harrasing passenger off the plane. They were all cheering her for doing something about it earlier, but now they are saying she made the flight cancelled. That is utter BS. I hate when they put the blame on someone else. The only fault I see she did, was she should have at least told the main pilot about calling the police or they should have moved that passenger to where the male flight attendants were.

Yes all the dramas I have watched her in have been good, except Master of My Own. For some reason, I really didn't like it. Her acting was good, but I think the plot of that whole drama and the story was just bad.

Me neither, I am loving it.

Not to mention what looks like is going to happen in the previews. I mean seriously, that one guy really hates female pilots.

This is probably the best 2022 (almost 2023) modern drama, I have seen this year. I have just finished the first 6 episodes and watched the previews for the next two and wow. The cast is amazing and so far the story has been really good. Sexual Harrasment and Gender Discrimination drama, what more could you ask for. I so hope that gender discriminating captain gets what is coming to him, what a freaking a**.

Just started watching only halfway through episode 1 and already loving it. Hopefully it continues and am so enjoying Wang Kai and Seven Tan together, so far limited interactions (only cause I am on episode 1) but I can already feel their chemistry (not necessarily in the romance department yet, but definitely in the acting together part). Most definitely, already, a lot better than her and Kenny Lin in Master of My Own.

I really like this combination. I am excited for it.

lol it's all good I hadn't read the other parts either til today.

They have Nirvana in Fire in Part 1.

I absolutely loved Love Like the Galaxy, it is my absolute new favorite costume drama now along with Ming Lan. I will have to say I haven't read any of the novels. The only one I did start was Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, but never finished. I really think I need to read more of these dramas' novels to get a better understanding.

I did hear so much about how the adaptation of Who Rules the World was changed. I liked Who Rules the World to a point, and mostly because of Zhao Lu Si and Lai Yi. The drama itself overall was not great. So much drama/controversy behind the drama as well, with the producer and director, etc. I hated they changed so much and made it more Male Lead centric, because again ZLS was really good.

I like Go Go Squid, too. To hear that Yang Zi's character was dumb downed, it makes me want to read the novel now. For her supposedly having 2 majors and being so smart, I didn't like how silly they made her in the drama. As for You are My Glory and Skate Into Love, I like both them as well. I did get a bit bored with You are My Glory toward the last few episodes though.

I have never watched The Untamed, I can't get past the 1st episode. Some people have told me to skip up til episode 11 then watch it. I just haven't been interested in starting it again for the who knows how many time.

Thank you for your synopsis on the difference with the book and dramas. I know they like to change things with they adapt books into dramas, but to see how much is changed really makes it you see which one is better. I will definitely start reading more books so I can see the differences as well.

yes it does have a happy ending.

Finally finished. I would have given this at least 8.5 maybe, maybe a 9, but after the editing and after screwing up the awesome relationship between Qiao and GuangHan. I have to give it a way lower score. The editing did this drama an injustice. They edited out important dramatic scenes and left in scenes that seem unimportant to the story. This drama really had great potential and it seemed they were just kind of here lets throw this and that cliche into the drama. The acting was pretty good. I really have to say I was impressed with the FL actress, I can't wait to see her in more dramas. I have watched the ML in a few other dramas and he isn't bad.

it's both in game and out, about 50/50

2 episodes left. I have to say overall this drama would have been really good, but the editing messed it up. The acting was good, costumes for the gameplay were good, the story would have been great but of course we know why that isn't the case. So blaming the editor, director, production team for a very overall low score, unfortunately.

So I am aggravated at why she got upset when she found out he was Ink White. Technically she didn't tell him she was Chu He (although he figured it out on his own), but still. I think it was childish of her to act that way. I think she should have been ecstatic. If she should get upset about anything it is definitely not that. I thought that scene was really stupid. They even hinted a few times, she thought Ink White might be Han Jing Mo.

Right now they only parts I look forward to are the scenes between her and her brother and her brother and Gu Qiao Bei.

I really like this show, but I would like it even better if it didn't feel so incomplete. It is like they cut out so many scenes, etc. (I am not just talking about the confession scene, either). I feel like they rush scenes and there is so much we miss that would make this drama so much better. Some of the scenes they do put in feel so inadequate. more comments below (spoiler)

yeah these last couple of episodes I actually caught on to it, it is so funny just to see them pull these watermelons out of no where, I am like where the hell did the watermelon come from, LOL

Ok, LOL, what is with all the watermelon eating? Are they are trying make a pun about melon =gossip? Cause everytime I see them pull watermelon out of no where they also either are listening to gossip or talking about it.
