In the novel, FL's father is a really dashing dandy with gentle temperament that even at his late thirties and early forties, young ladies still fall in love with him.

Then, we got this in the drama. I totally get your point lmao

They are in-laws

Yup. Fate brought them together again and she gets married to the same person again with a totally different perspective. Noticing all the care and love he gave to her during their first life, and falling in love with him for real this time.

lol exactly. I started the novel with the knowledge of CSY being the ML. Even then, I still doubted it greatly while reading the first half of the novel. YX was just written very well...

haha, that summary is for her first life. But yeah, the relationships are pretty complicated in the novel.

In the drama, he likely won't. In the novel, he does.

Also seemingly less smart Concubine Song and good Gu Lan?

Feels like they consolidated all the evil roles into GDZ to condense the Gu Family arc.

Drama is very different from the novel. So, hard to tell.

Drama is very different from the novel.

If you want to know how it went in the novel,

Jinchao fell in love and pursued Chen Xuanqing first (mainly due to schemes).

Then, she stopped pursuing him. Much later, she got married to Chen Sanye.

And.... Chen Xuanqing is biological son of Chen Sanye. (In the drama, they are uncle and nephew)

Xuan Qing calls Sanye 'Uncle' in the drama.

ikr. Like some text got cut during the translation. They probably meant Shizi Ye Xian because it also mentioned Sanye's position in the same sentence. Or this son thing carried over from the novel.

It was described in the novel that Jinchao basically climbs trees and stuffs during her time in the Ji family. So, the boat scene isn't that far fetch for me given how her grandmother doted her.

Based on the opening, drama looks like massively different from the novel, so I'll just watch it with a fresh eyes. haha

I felt something was missing while I was watching that scene. This is exactly that. lmao

The tsundere energy run in the entire family. lol

The father, the brother, and Huiju, all of them speak the opposite of what's on their mind. Harsh but secretly care for each other.

They already explained about it in one of the previous episodes. If they clean the mole out, another would come right after. So, better to keep the known mole under watch than to starting this cycle all over again and again.

Now despite the incident, it's easier for them to narrow down the suspects.

Today's epilogue really slaps. haha

I'm more than half way through the novel now. I know it's not gonna happen, but this is the first time I'm having such a serious second lead syndrome. Both male leads were so compellingly written so far.

Finished half the novel. So far it is quite intriguing. Hoping to finish reading before the drama airs. haha

But, I can already guess what kind of changes we'll see in the drama.

ikr lol 🤣

Girl is so real. Straight up checking the media response and already set a PR meeting next morning. lol
