On iqiyi it says two episodes daily from now on, so I think we won’t have to wait. At least I hope so!

“These people are building their happiness on my pain!” 😂

Yes, in the book it was a snowy night, he was lying among the corpses and cats were eating them - that’s why snow and cats trigger his PTSD and he hates them.

Don’t believe silly rumors! It was simply an ensemble cast piece where everyone was important, and not the usual FM/ML romance. The focus is more on the mysteries, intrigue, murders, character interactions, and character development than on a simplistic romance. But we still got a lot of sweet moments between them. It’s very much worth watching.

Some fans also made a big deal about out of ML and FL not attending one of the promotions, but that was not because they had not been invited, but because they were busy filming other series and couldn’t make it.

It does!

Why is there no translation for this? It’s so good!

Both: the director also wrote the screenplay and novel version, which was published in segments at the same time as the drama.

At the time of filming she was only 14! But thankfully there was no kiss or embrace, just innocent hand-holding.

Did you notice he shifted his aim to the musician instead at the end? That means he would have betrayed Wufeng right along with her.

It must be an act. The novel (written by the director) reveals he has a perfect memory and can recall anything he’s seen even once, no matter how long ago. He’s clearly pretending to be dumber than he is.

I was wrong though, the fingers have a special meaning explained in ep 6.

She stole the whole receptacle, which holds three.

It’s a new Chinese drama, so first it gets lots of 1 star ratings by haters. It will take time for the rating to rise, it’s always like this.

She was implying that she stole Zhi’s three poison darts I think.

I think finding her more interesting due to her wanting to escape like his mother makes a lot of sense: he longs for his dead mother, and she subconsciously reminds him of her, which makes him project a lot of his emotions and unfulfilled wishes onto her. In addition, he wasn’t able to help and save his mother, now she’s giving him what seems like a chance for a re-do, appealing to his wish to be a savior and make her happy in a way his mother never was.

And she also makes her situation at home sound awful, with the dead father and her mother being not being treated well (she writes she hopes that a good marriage on her part will improve her mother’s treatment). So that makes him think that letting her run away wouldn’t actually help her at all: she’d be ruined and shamed, and her (imaginary) mother would be mistreated by her relatives. So she’s making him think that he knows better what’s good for her and needs to step in and be the hero. Very clever of her.

It was a replacement for the death penalty punishment she had earned.

If nobody would have believed him, why the need to kill him? And why would he be more believable when leaving clues that are hard to figure out instead of telling them clearly?

It also makes no sense to leave arduously clues for something so important, why not just quickly go and tell as many people as possible what he saw? Then he also wouldn’t have been killed to silence him, because everyone would have already known!

When both ML and SML wanted her to drink from the cup each was offering and she didn’t know what to do, was I the only one who thought “How about you choose the one who didn’t drive your parents into their graves?!” It’s so weird how they just ignore the atrocities he just committed in the human realm, as if human lives were not as real as theirs and don’t deserve any recognition or grieving.
