Not really, imo. FL wakes up in modern day but ML is only her boss. Her manhua becomes popular and she is asked to make a sequel with the same setting. When she starts the sequel the scene goes back to the ancient time when ML wakes up and and recognizes her. The end. Their romance only stays in manhua, sadly.

Option number 3 more likely.

Question to the ones who read the manhua. Do I need to watch the prequel (Rakshasa Street) before watching this drama?

Ikr... once this secondary couple is introduced... their scenes take half of each episode... 😒Although I think the auntie has something to do with the mafia gang.

No, it's supposed to be regular length. Not sure about the subbed one, but you can Google it with the native title and number 7 to find the raw version.

Ikr... the grandma is a tyrant... no wonder everyone in the family seems not right...

They should just use the native title 他似火 translates to He Is Like Fire... cos honestly... Fan Zhi Xin is hot!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Look at the drama poster

Not sure about that... after seeing the poster where ML chokes FL 😂😂😂

No romance?

Ye Ran is either Xiang Ting Dong's twin brother or a cousin. Up till Ep 4 it's revealed that Ye Ran's mother is Grandma Xiang's daughter but was kicked out when she was young. Not sure if Xiang Ting Dong is also her son but the family picked only one boy or not, we'll see later.

Maybe... it's not revealed yet... (I'm only at Ep 4). But Ye Ran definitely is a Xiang...

FL is good... she's strong mentally and holds some power, too.

I had never seen the actress before, but she's so pretty. I love that her hairstyle is just simply straight down... not the typical Republican-era style with ringlets and all that stuff. Like the one in No One But You is really off-putting.

Nope. No cheating whatsoever. Cheng Che is adopted by Grandma Xiang, so she's devoted to her. Grandma arranged for her to marry her grandson Xiang Ting Dong. She only agrees to marry him since she's grateful to Grandma. He is an opium addict and has a mental issue. He doesn't want to marry Cheng Che. No love between them. Something happened to Ting Dong I don't want to spoil you, so Cheng Che hires Ye Ran to be Ting Dong.

Omg... this is really good!!! Suspenseful... both ML and FL have their own agenda...

I can't breathe... the modern-day ML wearing specs is super handsome... 🤤🤤🤤

If I'm not mistaken, ZZH has an official YouTube channel. You can watch this documentary on that channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwMG6XoJ34

If I'm wrong... the author of this article will correct me... 😉

"Since this is the usual dramatic Chinese short Republican Era romance genre, main male lead will get slap at least once LOL"...

Lmao, I never noticed that... I did notice in Chinese historical dramas, MLs will get stabbed by FLs... 😂😂😂

So, should put 'Mean FL' or 'Red Flag FL' tag... 😂😂😂
