The ending was nice but it would be so amazing if we get a special episode with yinlou & xiao duo and their twin babies 💝 living happily & also a few scenes of the other two sweet couples 💕 maybe im greedy cuz they've already done so much for us viewers by not entirely following the novel's 2nd arc & ending but yea, its okay to be greedy for this💘

I recently watched 'my uncanny destiny' (2023) & the FL was quite strong & smart from the start to the end. Try checking it out. The drama just got better and better as it progressed.

usually strong & smart FLs in cdramas are not stronger & smarter than their male partners 😕 rarely I have come across dramas where the ‘independent’ FL remains independent throughout the drama. There were few dramas like the fake princess but yea, I can’t seem to name many :/

Xiao duo and yinlou kissed each other in that boat. Those scenes were cut :/

y'all if you don't mind telling, how do you guys know there's a forced kiss scene & boat kiss scene which were cut? does anyone have any clips of those scenes? hmm i just want it for some... yea whatever 🤭

Edit: Just watched the eps. There was a bite mark in Xiao duo’s lips so yea, now I get it. That’s how ppl found out that there was a kiss scene that was cut. How I wish it wasn’t 😔 censorship is playing a cruel game with us

Wang yibo is trending again on weibo regarding reputation protection rights. Yuehua claims that yibo doesn't know Li Yifeng at all & is not a s*x worker. i hope things get sorted out soon

cnetizens have named the cp, xiao duo X bu yinlou, as "肖步活了" (Xiao Buhuo) meaning "Xiao Bu is alive". A combo of their surnames. A fan said, despite the turbulences or the obstacles they are going to encounter from now, the will always be a couple so their CP will be alive

let's hope the drama is better than the novel & doesn't disappoint 🥺

its somewhere between 65 to 75 ig. not exactly sure :/

that should just stay in the novel 😭there are other ways to find out like...just trust like how yinlou reasoned stuff when the real xiao duo's ex-flame appeared or investigate?!! isn't xiao duo a powerful eunuch with spies all over the palace & harem?!!

Tong yun take yinlou's place in the novel & served the emperor who was drugged/ drunk (the emperor doesn't know) as yinlou couldn't bear to let another man touch her. Then, it was noted down in some record book of the harem that yinlou served the emperor recently & that's how xiao duo got to know about this from cao through the bureau/ harem records. Tong yun even gets pregnant with the emperor's child.

But in the ep 22 preview, the emperor announces that she has spent the night with him being well aware that nothing happened. That's different from how the novel progressed. Xiao duo in ep 22 preview seems angry about why yinlou didn't/ can't trust him about taking a risk & eloping not about her betraying him by sleeping with another man. I really hope the drama doesn't follow the novel in this part. I don't want to see a xiao duo who can be cruel to his own love and humiliate her.

in the novel, he gets drunk & was really angry. when he meets her again in the palace (alone), he starts kissing her and she reciprocates. at that moment, he didn't care whether she served the emperor or not, he just wanted her to say she still loves him. when things were about to escalate/ get steamy, yinlou stopped him & told him it was not appropriate or safe & was about to leave. he got angry because she clearly loves him and isn't admitting it. he pulled her back & forced himself on her. she experiences pain as he's treating her aggressively but xiao duo doesn't pay any heed to her begging him to stop (even tells her he wants her to feel the pain. the author's description was horrifying). then, he treats her like used trash and leaves the room.

shortly after, he notices blood on his clothes & realizes that she didn't serve the emperor but he was her first man (they both lost their virginity to each other) & that she truly loves him. he meets her again, confronts her, starts acting sweet & they make up like nothing happened.

I hated the part where he forced her (r@ped tbh) in the novel & I wish the drama's xiao duo doesn't do anything like that. I'm somewhat sure they won't include such scenes in the drama and hope the drama turns out way better.

y'all, cut scenes or whatever. I just started ep 19. when i saw xiao duo hugging yinluo after she's drugged, it just melted my heart💘that's the definition of 'hold me like you'll never let me go' 🥺

can you lmk his answer? i didn't check his weibo yet. was it deleted?

he doesn't die at all in the novel. he has a nearly happy ending in the novel. the author has lost it. like gurl, he's deserves to be buried 6ft deep 💀

if only there was an overseas uncut version😭

xiao duo does believe she slept with the emperor in the novel & starts trying to hate her. it infuriates me aarghh

omg yesss! he closed her eyes as she was about to tear up due to the overwhelming emotions and kissed her. that scene was so beautifully executed 💘🥺💘

i just checked it out. it's a Taiwanese drama, right?! im only watching mainland china ones nowadays. that's why it fell off my radar :/ but thanks for letting me know 😊I love a mystery & romance combo ❤️‍🔥

💓they ate and left no crumbs in that drama🤣🤣
