This drama is so well written, just having short flashbacks of LMT feeding tanghulu to CJ and her running out of their home in Lingquan town to greet him when they returned tells us that LMT misses the good days of the amnesia one when BOTH weren't pushed back to their original positions as enemies. Like LMT said, they were so carefree back then AND on the same team. As the drama progresses, like LMT has complained to CJ so many times now, she's like literally screaming inside telling him that everything is changing around them, CJ is becoming more and more like CXZ and she, more and more like LW as the days goes by.
LMT keeps advising CJ not to overestimate his cleverness but at the same time, she too, shouldn't overestimate hers because behind the scenes she may or may not know, he's doing everything in his power to keep her safe knowing she can kill him at any time especially sleeping in the same bed every night BUT it's a risk he's willing to take. I'm sure he senses more than what he shares.
I have not watched the last few episodes properly, so I don't know if they changed things. But LMT was basically…
So far, the writing has been mature. LMT is keeping CXZ safe to keep herself safe. I don't think she'll truly hurt him out of vengeance later on or at least I hope not. LMT has been on the wrong path ever since three years ago. She believes that living on a mountain with bandits, playing a cat and mouse game with the law, living under an alias is to be free BUT it's really not. There are consequences to everything. I hope that living with CXZ has allowed her to see things from his perspective. He's trying to protect his people and country. It's the people who abide by the law when they can easily go rogue too that are admirable. If everyone played by the code of thieves, there would be too much bloodshed that even LMT wouldn't wish to see that.
I imagine by ep 21, the truth will be revealed? I am already tired of this whole deception game between the two.
I don't think LMT would play this deception game if she had another choice. A lot of things have happened since the last time she was Lu Wen. People and powers have changed. She has to figure things out about Mount Yang before she can return, so she's using CXZ for protection because only he is powerful enough to keep her safe. She knows who is at Mount Yang, how rich, how resourceful they are. They've already killed her once. She doesn't want to repeat that again. She has been safe with him for a whole year, he's the best man to keep it that way until she can fully recover herself as well as her situation. I'm not tired of the deception game because it's all about survival, not necessarily personal as of now. What I love about LMT is, yes, she's saying she'll take revenge but her actions right now are really smart and strategic. If she wanted to hurt CXZ, it's very easy to but she even helped him capture the murderers and ledger, so she has her own plans. She can put aside her personal feelings away for now for other benefits.
They seem more comfortable in this live.β€οΈπ
This is their first collaboration but they had other lives and interviews for this drama before this recent live and they were okay in interaction but in this live, they seem to be a bit more comfortable.

Sorry, I meant, they seem happier and a lot more comfortable in this live versus other lives and interviews I've seen them in previously. They look pretty relaxed. Maybe this drama is doing good so they can chill.
If he remain unaware, it would amount to character assassination. I think he'll figure out she's Lu Wen sooner…
Yea, although he has let A LOT of his guards down, he's not muddled in the head. He's trying to marry her rightfully while fulfilling all his Wang Ye duties. I know he knows something without telling us yet.
LMT eliminating Cao Duo actually impeded on CXZ's investigation. Granted it was personal vengeance but in looking…
I think whatever Cao Duo could've provided in the investigation Lu Wen easily can too, now that she's back, so it's not a total loss after all. It's better to get rid of Cao Duo while they have a chance the bandit way than have him arrested and pardoned the legal but corrupted way. Cao Duo can do a lot of damage if released and it'll be hard to capture him again. There are way too many times CXZ had to let the bad guys go.
I feel like CXZ sort of knows that LMT has regained her memories. He senses that LMT has secrets behind her eyes and also that LW has returned. He notices that LMT no longer acts the same. She's always asking him about his state affairs. Even the way he looks at her when they talk is different. His eyes aren't as comfortable and trusting as before. HOWEVER what can he do? He doesn't want to lose her, so he's being honest with her bit by bit, moment by moment, as she questions him. He can't tell the truth yet. He wants to marry her. He gives her all the answers when before, he kept silent about them because they are classified matters. To ease her mind and show that he's sincere, he puts himself at risk giving her intel. To him, he's doing everything to keep her even if that means being taken advantage of.
Here we go again (this time I was hell bent on staying away from controversy),Y'all are right, FL has every right…

Today's world, we have under cover cops. In here, we have undercover CJ. πβ€οΈ I totally agree with you. I'm not going to side with FL just because I'm a girl. I side more with CXZ. He's a good guy, really. He's risking his own life to protect others all the time.
I sympathize with LMT and her escort agency's massacre HOWEVER that is sort of what happens when you deal with people in the black market. It's one bandit to another and you expect them to have a code of honor? Don't hate on CXZ for taking LMT down as she would have him when given the same chance. Or she may have done worse.
