If there’s one thing I think I’ve observed enough of these dramas, no matter how much a second lead may feel about the main gal, resolutions vary. If I’m not wrong from all that I’ve seen, this is the first one where it is quite dramatic to a degree that I do feel so bad for YX. I didn’t get that she liked him as a man, but for sure she cared very much for him as a long time friend. Sigh

27..The world needs more Marquis Changxing’s “my desire is not to be a lord but to have everlasting peace” but unfortunately we have too many Fu Han’s, greedy, with no moral compass wreaking disastrous consequences.

Ep 26..heartbroken men, solid Gu n Chen, sigh…the world needs more Gu Jinyao where men fight after a kind woman, instead we have a world where women fight to jail very bad men because there’s too many to count…imo

Beginning of 26 breaks my heart. Regardless that the story is written this way, imagining anyone going through this heartbreak is tough. YeXian is a good person too, loved and had hopes, sad that ways of heart doesn’t always pan out in exact way we want it too. Gosh I didn’t know he had it deep poor fella.

I think we all get this part. It’s the second part of what I said that is concerning to me bc as beautiful a gift is, the giver is the priority.

I hope I’m wrong but the divorce papers is such a beautiful caring gesture yet why do I feel it’s a bad premonition.

So many great things in ep 25 yet I’m stuck laughing at the dismayed bird sound when Yao’s mom is about to announce the union cancellation of Gu Liang and her son. These spontaneous added elements adds to the dynamic of the storytelling and it makes me laugh all the time. These additions in Chinese film making is so satisfying. 😊

You are too kind. Thank you and I’m glad we’re both enjoying this gem.

Right? 😆

Gu Liang is a pest but she does add sinister that just gets right back to her by Jinzhao so it’s justified. Girl and her mother never learns.

Keep going, it gets better with each episode

ep 20 I can’t say enough how much I am enjoying this story. A female character who speaks her mind and plans her life around her own interests. She makes up for all the doormat females who trips, falls, and smack kisses the man that is so cringey and incredibly annoying. I am truly liking the actress as she’s playing this role so well. The way her mouth and side eye moves with annoyances is so good. Her super slow weight of male leads proposal is aligned perfect to her character. Writing is so good. Usually I’m anxious for episodes. I’m actually liking the pace as an after work enjoyment of savoring word for word of the development of the story. I do admit I’m ready for their commitment to happen maybe in next episode? That would be awesome. I want to see them putting their smarts together to solve problems. I want her to smile more because she’s genuinely happy. I know those don’t come easily in historicals but I can wish.

15 so packed! Endearing and utterly sad. In all, life is so complicated because people are driven by their emotions. No matter what drives us to do things, especially based on our perceptions, the outcomes doesn’t always give satisfaction to perfection. The saddest part is the regrets. Should have, could have…again, I really think the writing is great. If an audience can clearly follow along making connections and applications, then it’s well worth the time given. This is a beautiful episode of givens that must be taken.

ep 14, am really liking the development of this story. I’m impressed with the female lead as this is the first time I’ve seen her work. Her character isn’t annoying thank goodness. She solidifies her standing as the returned daughter who is not to be messed with. As for ml, he’s very observant, mysterious, and actually funny as he slowly weaves into the fl’s life. All those directives to his assistant and change of mind has me smiling. He’s interesting. This story is written and performed quite nicely.

ep 13. What a despicable wandering eye hubby to have the nerve to put all the bad on his poor wife who has been sacrificing her own life to keep his reputation. Despicable man now colluding with scheming women? Too sad for the wife, hope he gets his punishment.

I like the leads here so I’ve climbed on board. So far to ep 12, it’s quite good.

Waking to see this with encouragement. Thank you.

Thank you

True. Just a preference of dislike.

Thank you. On hold after ep 2 and maybe I’ll come back after Her Private Life as my alternative for KJ Uck. 😁
