Let me be clear...Fan Zhi Xin can KISS!!!! The kisses throughout this entire drama will have every, I mean every, woman sighing. Episodes 12 and 16....whew! Especially episode 16 best interruption of an engagement ever. When Manning interrupted his engagement ceremony to tell him that he was hers and when she put the ring on him, that sealed the deal. He came after her and picked her up and kissed her and said, "How can you leave after that...I'm yours." I think I passed out. I watched that 4 times. Fan is the complete package of sinister, to protector, to lover, to child. His range of emotions, especially the episodes from 21 on really show it. You will just want to wrap your arms around him. His FL compliments him so well. They make a lovely couple.
At the beginning, he was a bully to her at first but when you see how loving he is moving forward...you forget all that.
The music at the beginning sets the tone and the action starts already in the first episode. With his Bond-like walk all that he needed to say, is "Shaken not stirred" and I would have been done. He just has the presence that captures your attention. Him and Vincenzo would make a good pair. Him with his ring and Vincenzo with his lighter. Now that would be something to behold.
The pacing, storyline and performances were on point.
I would love to see this couple together again, possibly My Lethal Man 2. Best drama by far this year.
I am now up to episode 24 and there are only 6 episodes left...thank the Lord! I mean the craziness in this drama is not stopping.
So, we left off with the bird...right? Well, they find Shen Miao and her son, and get this...she pretends to be mute! You heard me mute! She is now using Pei's hand to write messages on because she is saying she can't talk. (Roll eyes) Pei of course knows it's her. Pei and Xiao agree they will meet her the next day at his residence. Well, she finally comes and lo and behold the puppet show Xiao performs brings back...her memory!!!! She then looks at Pei and says, "Why can't you just let me go." Then she faints. Pei gets a doctor and tells him that he wants her to have something that will relieve her memories coming back because they were too painful. Well, you know Shen Miao's maid gets the medicine only for Shen Miao to wake up and throw it on the floor. She then threatens her and tells her, "I'm your master, who are you loyal too. " Of course, she says her. The two now devise a plan to get away from Pei. But not before she sends her maid to Song's place to get the letters he has been hiding about her family. She reads them and knows her family is doing well so she is going to leave with Xiao. She now feels that she cannot trust either Song or Pei. But of course, Song is now talking to assassins to get her out of the Pei residence. Shen Miao tells Xiao through a cookie (she put a note to cause a fire). Well, this fire was epic. Burn the whole place practically down.
There is one point where Shen Miao is in the courtyard and Pei comes out. And he does say that he wishes he would have never met her. It was just him regretting how things just went sideways. He is getting ready to go down the stairs and it really looks as if Shen Miao was going to push him until his guard intervene. She just smiled and walked away.
Pei is still thinking she doesn't have her memory because he asks her where she is taking Xiao. (Who by the way Xiao and the maid have gone down a rope and are waiting below for her). Here come the assassins to which Pei is fighting them off with his cane. Song comes and the assassins leap up and take Shen Miao. Then Song, Shen Miao and Xiao all leave. Pei is distraught.
Back at Songs place he tells Shen Miao to make herself presentable so she can see Xiao. Xiao now is the protector of his mother and won't let Song near her. Pei starts the search but can't find them.
Shen Miao...ok, you know I have to bring up the bird, right? I cannot believe she EVEN said this. My head wanted to explode. She told Song that the BIRD TOLD HER THE TRUTH ABOUT PEI! Say what? You believe a freakin' bird told you the truth about your life? I cannot!!! Then she asks Song if he sent her the bird for a reason...to which she got NO REPLY. Ya think?
But get this, Song is allowed to explain himself to her, but every time Pei did, she cut him off. He tells her that he never touched her that night of their wedding because he had promised her, he wouldn't. He knew ALL ALONG that Xiao was Pei's son. So, all of the unnecessary drama about "who was the daddy" was not warranted. Song created all of the drama! He now tells her that no matter what, he will always be HIS son and she will always be HIS wife. Ok, now who is being over the top obsessive.
Now, Shen Miao is planning on checking out with her, her son and the maid. Now, I gotta give it to the maid because she was trying to tell her that maybe she misunderstood Pei because she has been with him for 2 years and he is not the bad guy they are making him out to be. Well, she got the frosty look from Shen Miao and just shut up.
Moving on to the next remaining...thank goodness, 6 episodes we have the following: Pei goes to the temple and tells the monk that he only wants Shen Miao to be happy and he is just going to let her go. (Ok, that was a minute with that). Then I guess Shen Miao and Pei are leaving the temple at the same time via the mountain until lightning strikes the only lone tree on the mountain and falls on him. Shen Miao runs over, and he said he knew she still had feelings for him.
Song, Pei and Shen Miao all are together again in the capital and yes, he is still blind. But somewhere along the line he regains his sight and he and Shen Miao agree to a 3-month term of raising Xiao.
Ok, now here comes more of the crazy. The father dies (as I said before) with just a token that is laying on the murderer to which all fingers are pointing to...you guess it...Pei. Song then convinces Shen Miao that they need to KILL, yes KILL Pei because he will kill the rest of her family. Yep, she believes Song and they devise the scheme of telling him that they need to go to the temple and burn incense to get the marriage on track. Well, Song and his men chain up Pei and Song is ready to kill him when Shen Miao stops him.
How do we see happiness here? I got that answer for you. Pei has now said, "I'm done." Goes back to his residence and says he wants a concubine that will be willing to have his child, etc. Here comes Shen Miao vying to be one of those women. Now Pei is still saying I believe that he is married to her, but he is done and is getting someone else at this point. She of course wins the competition (they set it up because he still loves her and wants only her) When I saw her going to compete, I was thinking why? How many times did she say she want him to let her go yet here she is fighting to be with him? It is the most twisted relationship ever.
Then in the previews of the last episode Pei is laughing in his room as if he is with someone and Shen Miao is saying how she is his wife and she will not put up with that. Burst in only to see clothes littered on the floor and opens the curtains with him lying there alone.... she goes to leave, and he grabs her onto the bed and says, "Shen Miao, you are finally here."
I have no words for how I had such hope for this drama.... but they should not have stated that this is a fantastic love story. This is such a heart wrenching drama, again not the lighthearted drama I thought it would be....so sad with such great ML, FL, and SML
Are you kidding me, they are going to add another stupid plot with her Dad's death? Like they don't have enough…
@Naija05, well he is shot, and they just "happen" to leave the token on the body. Come on, you know her "bird brain" is thinking it is Pei again because Song's man found it. She can't get any lamer. She doesn't think Song knows something. Do we think he took the token and gave it to someone not thinking they would kill the father? It isn't Pei because he was trying to help her family. If she would just listen and Pei would explain they could try to be a family again. How will this even be a happy ending?
Can I say how stressed out I am, but guess what? I'm still watching...go figure.
I cannot stand the SFL, just stop already. How many ways do you have to hear he doesn't want nor love you. It was all you. He even said from the beginning he was not 100% ready and you accepted it. Now, is she going to go to Daddy to now "buy" him for her? Urg!
The FL is driving me nuts. The nonstop "deer in headlights" look is driving me crazy. Her question with another question is too much. She seems to have no emotion at all. She to me is very tiresome. She herself should be tired of being the way she is. I don't believe she slept with Pil. It was just a way for her to shield ML from what she believes is the wrath of SFL family but also for him to give up on her, but not seeing that happening.
And lastly ML... clapping to see you grew a set and told gf bye! I am glad to see he is starting to take charge.
Only 4 episodes left, and I can tell it is going to be a rollercoaster for sure!
We now are at the point where she is still not believing Pei. But she devises a plan with Song to get her away from Pei. She agrees to marry him only to find out that not only Song had come to take her away, but assassins are also there to kill Pei and her. She saves Pei by using the devise that is around her arm to kill the assassin. Pei sees this and tells her that she really didn't love him and that she wanted him to die all along. To which she says that he wanted the whole Shen family gone too. Meanwhile, the Queen Dowager who has been hanging out in the mausoleum plotting her revenge. Sent someone to kill Shen Maio and Pei. She takes the dagger for Pei which is poison (of course). Song has her in his arms and carries her away after Pei sees her die (again).
Now, let us fast forward TWO years to find out that Pei is blind from the poison of the dagger. Say what? Shen Miao got the dagger not him. I guess the fumes came to him and blinded him. He now has Xiao and Shen Maio's maid with him.
The emperor is basically doing nothing but going to the ancestral place to pray. He to me is worthless. The father, we have heard nothing further only that he is at the border. But he hasn't even tried to come back to see what is going on with his family. I mean people have "supposedly died" and no word from him? No return to see what is going on. What happened to the seal? What about the businesses of the family? Who is running them?
Meanwhile Shen Miao, low and behold survives the poison of the dagger to which we were told there was NO WAY she would live...yeah right. She now believes she is the warrioress that protects people and has an agency. Song keeps telling her that she is married to him; but she doesn't believe it. I wonder why even not having a memory; she doesn't believe she is married to Song? Go figure.
Pei and his son travel to where Shen Miao is not knowing that she is there of course. Pei calls for service at the restaurant and no one comes. He attempts to go only to have Xiao say he would go and runs into...Shen Miao! He calls her mother several times and she is like I don't know you and her head starts hurting and runs away. She saves Pei from the politician sons who are ruffing him up. He hears her voice and knows it's her.
Xiao is beside himself after seeing his mother and he runs away. Pei starts searching for him. But Shen Miao has the bird start saying...Mother and Xiao and it flies away. She starts chasing the bird which leads her to Xiao. They are now spending time together.
Song freaks out because Shen Miao hasn't returned and believes that Pei took her. He goes to his residence and Pei basically says he can check but he doesn't have anything that belongs to him. He later is told they find her. She is walking drunkenly down the street and Song comes to her and says he won't let anything happen to her...
Now, again these stupid BIRDS are on my nerves. Song gets back the bird he sent to the Pei residence by bribing someone to get it out. Yep, you guessed it. The bird starts saying things to make her start thinking. This is the dumbest plot line ever. She based all of the misunderstandings before on a bird and here we go again with the bird. Enough already.
And Song...stop acting like you are the gift that keeps giving to save her because let me be clear, you are treating her the same way Pei did by keeping her at the residence and not letting her out. But you are far worse by keeping her identity away from her for TWO years and wait...HER SON TOO!!! What makes you think that you are any better in what you are doing?
Yes, Pei was wrong in not telling her things that were going on, but he kept telling her that he would reveal everything once he came back from the capitol. He was a little too late.
Oh, let's not forget the princess. She had entailed too that she didn't bother to disclose to Shen Miao either. She is supposed to be her bestie, what happen to that? Then she knows her mother was plotting to kill Shen Miao and she still thinks her mother has been dissed for being in the mausoleum?
The upcoming episodes we have Shen Miao remember who she is and her life before. We have Pei regain his eyesight. They then agree to 3 months together as a family because Pei said it wasn't fair for him to lose him after it was just those two for two years. Finally, the dad is killed, and a token is left on his body pointing to you guess it...Pei! Song had something to do with this because she is with him when she got the news. Kinda of funny that the token is given then and do we really think Song had nothing to do or possibly know who did it?
My final thoughts. I am so disappointed in this drama. I really had high hopes. But I really cannot stand the fact that they made the FL look so weak. She cannot choose between two men to get a life. I get it she was 15 and all but she is grown now. Start making decisions. She has let both of these men lead her and she should just get rid of them both and raise her son. She has MONEY!!! Yes, let Pei visit him and Song too since he has helped with his raising, but this is just toxic at this point. Too many lies, deceit, backstabbing and mistrust have been what is going on. Can Pei and Shen Miao really find love at this point? I would hope for Pei and her to get back together but he has not been above board in telling her everything about who he really is.
If I had not vested my time in this drama, I would have dropped it. Thank goodness it is only 30 episodes.

The Wife...how many are watching this crazy drama? The insanity. Ok, now that I'm up to episode 15 (only 5 more to go) I now have all the players the wife has to get on her side to bring her husband down. We have Ornin and Lak. But we know he now has Nudee who is so bedazzled by him that she is telling him what is going on in the house. Let's be clear, if he would have been with any other woman, this man would have been gone by now...he even slept with the maid! Wait...and she still has her working for her!!! Really? Gurl bye! This wife is so beat down and going for all of his crap until I want to go and smack her to wake up. But now she is. Thank goodness. She is now going to use these two mistresses to bring him down. A good ally is Ornin's ex-husband who is trying to help. The sad part is her BEST friends are so lame and useless. Ornin I believe will help because she finally, finally heard her say that she wants a divorce and him saying he will NEVER divorce her. So, now she is starting to see what is up and found out that Lak is the other woman. I have to say Ornin is one crazy, unhinge girl. I mean she wants him something fierce. I can see her siding with Vi (just to get what she wants because that is always her end game...herself). She even tried to get help from her dad and he smacked her and said she wasn't going to divorce him. Now, after all the dad has been through with Root, he gets it. A little too late because he wasn't prepared for this crazy son-in-law. The board will not give her the job even if he retires. So, how will he get his daughter the job and beat Root? The question is even if she pulls these two in to help, I believe that Ornin will help just so that she can beat this other chick Lak. Didn't see her coming, I thought it was one of her other besties. Oh, and who is pregnant? Could it still be another one of her friends and not the two mistresses that we know about? If that is the case, Lord help Ornin who will try to take whoever it is down because that is her man. Honestly, what do they see in this guy? He is nice looking but dang, is he the only game in town. Ornin's ex-husband isn't bad looking but I know there are other men around do we really ladies, have to fight over this man? Bring him down and show how women do it!
The FL is just brain dead, she is ready to kill someone based on what she heard from a bird, a frigging bird!!!…
@Naija05 that is so true. But I hate to see how they have him being so obsessed with her. I mean, really, what is it about her. Granted a son but we haven't even so much as a kiss between them and he has this undying love for her? Ok, so when he goes blind, he is STILL following her until a tree comes down on him. She tells him I told you to stop following her. Geez! I am interested to see how the rest of these episodes come together.
The FL is just brain dead, she is ready to kill someone based on what she heard from a bird, a frigging bird!!!…
@Madoncdramas you are making me laugh. I keep waiting for it to have a turnaround to get better. But I don't know how you salvage this. I mean, the bird is what got me. Honestly, you are basing your life on a freakin' bird! Now, how in the world does he get blind? Why is the emperor just chilling and not saying anything? Song is a backstabber. Thank goodness this is only 30 episodes because I'm at a loss as to what they will do. Oh, he is the 6th Prince and was suppose to get the throne, how about starting off with that to get her attention to listen that he was helping her family! Ugh!!!!
The FL is just brain dead, she is ready to kill someone based on what she heard from a bird, a frigging bird!!!…
Exactly! I was so annoyed when she started listening to this bird. Then all of this drama with the dying was so over the top! Now he is going on the deep end trying to keep her with him. Where is the son? Song family doesn't have him. Pei family were the ones that had him. Oh, let's see she loses her memory..duh...and now the son is with Pei who is blind. How's that going for him? I get it that he is in love with her but enough already. She turns her love off and on with him. I mean, she couldn't take a beat and think about him as a person as to what was going on. Even when he did explain it she still wanted to kill him. Helloooo, his parents that raise him are dead!!! Your dad is still alive. For her being in business she is so slow. If I were these men, I would just move on. Is she really worth all of this? What is she bringing to the table?
I’m now in the 20 something episodes. To say this drama is working me is putting it mild. It’s getting to the point of how many more twist and turns can you do with 2 men vying for her. But let’s talk about what she did based on hearing what a bird said. Fake death!!!!! Really? Based off of a bird! Come on. She should have been smarter than that. I mean she went so far to pull in her little brother, aunt for this ridiculous scheme. All to leave? Let’s be clear, no one else in the whole area contracted TB. I mean it just pop up and ran rapid through the whole family. The maid who was close to her miraculously did even have a slight cough, nothing. No one told the dad what was going on? Than the emperor, why at some point did he not secretly find a way to tell her what was up? Now we have to see her show her “fake” love for him and agrees to marry him again only to try and kill him. Wedding called off. Then she loses her memory and he goes blind. All this before she is in her mid 20s!
I agree with your comments. It’s enough to drop it. 😬. It really improved between ep10-17😅😅😅then…
Agreed. Are you taking this bird serious? Ok, didn’t the doctor say the bird couldn’t talk for 3 days? Well, he started that night. This drama could be so much better. Oh, did you notice he had not given her a kiss yet? This was the same thing with Unchained Love. No kisses! 🤔
I'm up to episode 18 and this drama is stressing me out. I cannot understand why people cannot talk about issues. He takes off because he is called back to the capital to cook, Seriously? He lost his position and is a commoner and they want him to come back to cook? So, now he puts his plan into play with Song and emperor only to have his parents killed. Like at some point don't you think he could have told her who he was? The 6th prince that was suppose to get the throne? Looking at the upcoming episodes it gets only worse from "fake death" to "blindness" and Song deceiving her for 2 years. That takes you up to episode 24.
BD is better than EK. She is a little bit dumb for not understandding all the implications of her doings but she…
Exactly. But let us be clear, EK does not have to have the life she has. She chose to have it. She could have always said no to BD and moved on; but she didn't. Is that BD's fault? No. BD is now trying to make her way in paying off the debt her father incurred and have a thriving business. The situation with her EK's boyfriend, I have no words for that because she was just plain and simple an idiot. No woman, that I know, would put up with 4 years of that. Everything that has happen to her is of her own making and choosing, no one else's. I thoroughly agree with you with saying that BD does not deserve to have her life destroyed in this way. This is way over the top. But let me tell you, when BD does wise up, hell hath no fury. She is going to get her I believe and good. I can't wait. Oh, and when CW finds out...it is so on!

At the beginning, he was a bully to her at first but when you see how loving he is moving forward...you forget all that.
The music at the beginning sets the tone and the action starts already in the first episode. With his Bond-like walk all that he needed to say, is "Shaken not stirred" and I would have been done. He just has the presence that captures your attention. Him and Vincenzo would make a good pair. Him with his ring and Vincenzo with his lighter. Now that would be something to behold.
The pacing, storyline and performances were on point.
I would love to see this couple together again, possibly My Lethal Man 2. Best drama by far this year.
I am now up to episode 24 and there are only 6 episodes left...thank the Lord! I mean the craziness in this drama is not stopping.
So, we left off with the bird...right? Well, they find Shen Miao and her son, and get this...she pretends to be mute! You heard me mute! She is now using Pei's hand to write messages on because she is saying she can't talk. (Roll eyes) Pei of course knows it's her. Pei and Xiao agree they will meet her the next day at his residence. Well, she finally comes and lo and behold the puppet show Xiao performs brings back...her memory!!!! She then looks at Pei and says, "Why can't you just let me go." Then she faints. Pei gets a doctor and tells him that he wants her to have something that will relieve her memories coming back because they were too painful. Well, you know Shen Miao's maid gets the medicine only for Shen Miao to wake up and throw it on the floor. She then threatens her and tells her, "I'm your master, who are you loyal too. " Of course, she says her. The two now devise a plan to get away from Pei. But not before she sends her maid to Song's place to get the letters he has been hiding about her family. She reads them and knows her family is doing well so she is going to leave with Xiao. She now feels that she cannot trust either Song or Pei. But of course, Song is now talking to assassins to get her out of the Pei residence. Shen Miao tells Xiao through a cookie (she put a note to cause a fire). Well, this fire was epic. Burn the whole place practically down.
There is one point where Shen Miao is in the courtyard and Pei comes out. And he does say that he wishes he would have never met her. It was just him regretting how things just went sideways. He is getting ready to go down the stairs and it really looks as if Shen Miao was going to push him until his guard intervene. She just smiled and walked away.
Pei is still thinking she doesn't have her memory because he asks her where she is taking Xiao. (Who by the way Xiao and the maid have gone down a rope and are waiting below for her). Here come the assassins to which Pei is fighting them off with his cane. Song comes and the assassins leap up and take Shen Miao. Then Song, Shen Miao and Xiao all leave. Pei is distraught.
Back at Songs place he tells Shen Miao to make herself presentable so she can see Xiao. Xiao now is the protector of his mother and won't let Song near her. Pei starts the search but can't find them.
Shen Miao...ok, you know I have to bring up the bird, right? I cannot believe she EVEN said this. My head wanted to explode. She told Song that the BIRD TOLD HER THE TRUTH ABOUT PEI! Say what? You believe a freakin' bird told you the truth about your life? I cannot!!! Then she asks Song if he sent her the bird for a reason...to which she got NO REPLY. Ya think?
But get this, Song is allowed to explain himself to her, but every time Pei did, she cut him off. He tells her that he never touched her that night of their wedding because he had promised her, he wouldn't. He knew ALL ALONG that Xiao was Pei's son. So, all of the unnecessary drama about "who was the daddy" was not warranted. Song created all of the drama! He now tells her that no matter what, he will always be HIS son and she will always be HIS wife. Ok, now who is being over the top obsessive.
Now, Shen Miao is planning on checking out with her, her son and the maid. Now, I gotta give it to the maid because she was trying to tell her that maybe she misunderstood Pei because she has been with him for 2 years and he is not the bad guy they are making him out to be. Well, she got the frosty look from Shen Miao and just shut up.
Moving on to the next remaining...thank goodness, 6 episodes we have the following: Pei goes to the temple and tells the monk that he only wants Shen Miao to be happy and he is just going to let her go. (Ok, that was a minute with that). Then I guess Shen Miao and Pei are leaving the temple at the same time via the mountain until lightning strikes the only lone tree on the mountain and falls on him. Shen Miao runs over, and he said he knew she still had feelings for him.
Song, Pei and Shen Miao all are together again in the capital and yes, he is still blind. But somewhere along the line he regains his sight and he and Shen Miao agree to a 3-month term of raising Xiao.
Ok, now here comes more of the crazy. The father dies (as I said before) with just a token that is laying on the murderer to which all fingers are pointing to...you guess it...Pei. Song then convinces Shen Miao that they need to KILL, yes KILL Pei because he will kill the rest of her family. Yep, she believes Song and they devise the scheme of telling him that they need to go to the temple and burn incense to get the marriage on track. Well, Song and his men chain up Pei and Song is ready to kill him when Shen Miao stops him.
How do we see happiness here? I got that answer for you. Pei has now said, "I'm done." Goes back to his residence and says he wants a concubine that will be willing to have his child, etc. Here comes Shen Miao vying to be one of those women. Now Pei is still saying I believe that he is married to her, but he is done and is getting someone else at this point. She of course wins the competition (they set it up because he still loves her and wants only her) When I saw her going to compete, I was thinking why? How many times did she say she want him to let her go yet here she is fighting to be with him? It is the most twisted relationship ever.
Then in the previews of the last episode Pei is laughing in his room as if he is with someone and Shen Miao is saying how she is his wife and she will not put up with that. Burst in only to see clothes littered on the floor and opens the curtains with him lying there alone.... she goes to leave, and he grabs her onto the bed and says, "Shen Miao, you are finally here."
I have no words for how I had such hope for this drama.... but they should not have stated that this is a fantastic love story. This is such a heart wrenching drama, again not the lighthearted drama I thought it would be....so sad with such great ML, FL, and SML
I cannot stand the SFL, just stop already. How many ways do you have to hear he doesn't want nor love you. It was all you. He even said from the beginning he was not 100% ready and you accepted it. Now, is she going to go to Daddy to now "buy" him for her? Urg!
The FL is driving me nuts. The nonstop "deer in headlights" look is driving me crazy. Her question with another question is too much. She seems to have no emotion at all. She to me is very tiresome. She herself should be tired of being the way she is. I don't believe she slept with Pil. It was just a way for her to shield ML from what she believes is the wrath of SFL family but also for him to give up on her, but not seeing that happening.
And lastly ML... clapping to see you grew a set and told gf bye! I am glad to see he is starting to take charge.
Only 4 episodes left, and I can tell it is going to be a rollercoaster for sure!
We now are at the point where she is still not believing Pei. But she devises a plan with Song to get her away from Pei. She agrees to marry him only to find out that not only Song had come to take her away, but assassins are also there to kill Pei and her. She saves Pei by using the devise that is around her arm to kill the assassin. Pei sees this and tells her that she really didn't love him and that she wanted him to die all along. To which she says that he wanted the whole Shen family gone too. Meanwhile, the Queen Dowager who has been hanging out in the mausoleum plotting her revenge. Sent someone to kill Shen Maio and Pei. She takes the dagger for Pei which is poison (of course). Song has her in his arms and carries her away after Pei sees her die (again).
Now, let us fast forward TWO years to find out that Pei is blind from the poison of the dagger. Say what? Shen Miao got the dagger not him. I guess the fumes came to him and blinded him. He now has Xiao and Shen Maio's maid with him.
The emperor is basically doing nothing but going to the ancestral place to pray. He to me is worthless. The father, we have heard nothing further only that he is at the border. But he hasn't even tried to come back to see what is going on with his family. I mean people have "supposedly died" and no word from him? No return to see what is going on. What happened to the seal? What about the businesses of the family? Who is running them?
Meanwhile Shen Miao, low and behold survives the poison of the dagger to which we were told there was NO WAY she would live...yeah right. She now believes she is the warrioress that protects people and has an agency. Song keeps telling her that she is married to him; but she doesn't believe it. I wonder why even not having a memory; she doesn't believe she is married to Song? Go figure.
Pei and his son travel to where Shen Miao is not knowing that she is there of course. Pei calls for service at the restaurant and no one comes. He attempts to go only to have Xiao say he would go and runs into...Shen Miao! He calls her mother several times and she is like I don't know you and her head starts hurting and runs away. She saves Pei from the politician sons who are ruffing him up. He hears her voice and knows it's her.
Xiao is beside himself after seeing his mother and he runs away. Pei starts searching for him. But Shen Miao has the bird start saying...Mother and Xiao and it flies away. She starts chasing the bird which leads her to Xiao. They are now spending time together.
Song freaks out because Shen Miao hasn't returned and believes that Pei took her. He goes to his residence and Pei basically says he can check but he doesn't have anything that belongs to him. He later is told they find her. She is walking drunkenly down the street and Song comes to her and says he won't let anything happen to her...
Now, again these stupid BIRDS are on my nerves. Song gets back the bird he sent to the Pei residence by bribing someone to get it out. Yep, you guessed it. The bird starts saying things to make her start thinking. This is the dumbest plot line ever. She based all of the misunderstandings before on a bird and here we go again with the bird. Enough already.
And Song...stop acting like you are the gift that keeps giving to save her because let me be clear, you are treating her the same way Pei did by keeping her at the residence and not letting her out. But you are far worse by keeping her identity away from her for TWO years and wait...HER SON TOO!!! What makes you think that you are any better in what you are doing?
Yes, Pei was wrong in not telling her things that were going on, but he kept telling her that he would reveal everything once he came back from the capitol. He was a little too late.
Oh, let's not forget the princess. She had entailed too that she didn't bother to disclose to Shen Miao either. She is supposed to be her bestie, what happen to that? Then she knows her mother was plotting to kill Shen Miao and she still thinks her mother has been dissed for being in the mausoleum?
The upcoming episodes we have Shen Miao remember who she is and her life before. We have Pei regain his eyesight. They then agree to 3 months together as a family because Pei said it wasn't fair for him to lose him after it was just those two for two years. Finally, the dad is killed, and a token is left on his body pointing to you guess it...Pei! Song had something to do with this because she is with him when she got the news. Kinda of funny that the token is given then and do we really think Song had nothing to do or possibly know who did it?
My final thoughts. I am so disappointed in this drama. I really had high hopes. But I really cannot stand the fact that they made the FL look so weak. She cannot choose between two men to get a life. I get it she was 15 and all but she is grown now. Start making decisions. She has let both of these men lead her and she should just get rid of them both and raise her son. She has MONEY!!! Yes, let Pei visit him and Song too since he has helped with his raising, but this is just toxic at this point. Too many lies, deceit, backstabbing and mistrust have been what is going on. Can Pei and Shen Miao really find love at this point? I would hope for Pei and her to get back together but he has not been above board in telling her everything about who he really is.
If I had not vested my time in this drama, I would have dropped it. Thank goodness it is only 30 episodes.

up? Now we have to see her show her “fake” love for him and agrees to marry him again only to try and kill him. Wedding called off. Then she loses her memory and he goes blind. All this before she is in her mid 20s!
