hmmmmm….. to me he was verging on violent when he snapped at XY after they went to the cage fights and she said “what if I had rescued you” and then he said “you aren’t worthy” and he decided she was insulting his foster father and he snapped and went red eyes and Jing wisked her away.

then he snapped again when he was questioning her about who she wanted to marry and he gave her intense head pain and she kept asking him “why”

both of those scenes showed me that he was still unstable and scary and could snap on her.

🤣🤣🤣

exactly!!! I will be pissed 🫠

All of this is super accurate too.

I agree that he’s the most human and relatable to me.

🤣🤣🤣 she would have been miserable while he spends 24/7 sucking off CX and Grandpa.

that teaser is making me think they are going to make the previous scene a “dream” like the script leak and it will SUCK if they do.

XL is confusing and kind of like a cat to me. You can’t grasp him. Sometimes I feel he has the most pure unselfish most sacrificing love for XY but then he trades every good deed he does for her for something for himself which clouds the good deed because you never get to find out if he would have done it had there not been something in it for him. I think it would, but it’s a question mark…. also he loses his temper and physically hurts her even in the latter part when he snaps and that’s always scary & a fear. For me he’s a complicated contradictory character that is hard to fully put your hands on and that can be super sexy and appealing but also anxiety inducing.

I really really would have loved an alternate universe though where he was endgame and we got way more of him and saw him fully evolve into his husband arc. Sigh.

🤣🤣🤣

it’s so crazy!!

I find him extremely charismatic and hot and enticing and definitely think about “what if”

but then I think ok….. let’s say XY loved him back…. would he truly make her his only woman? He is able to spend lots of time with her so it does seem like he would have been able to accompany her a lot and I think they have inadvertently undermined the story in the drama by having him in soooo many scenes with XY when he’s supposed to be preoccupied with other things….

anyway I have definitely had moments thinking about how they could have been a power couple and he would have done any and everything for her and it’s sad she never even had one iota of feeling for him.

This show is amazing because you could literally break it up into 3 separate shows and I would root for each ML in the separate alternate universe. Whoever did the casting deserves an award.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

LMFAOOOO

that is so crazy to me. That she had a to fight for such an important scene. Sigh.

I am SOOOOOOOOO not a XL hater AT ALL. If she ended up with him I would have been happy if that was how the story unfolded. In general I personally prefer dramas where the guys like XL where he is cold and misunderstood and becomes warm for the woman he loves although I admit the physical abuse did turn me off and he still is unpredictable and physically hurts her and I hate that. But generally XL is practically my prototype for a Male Lead in my fave dramas. If XY chose him I would totally be happy for them. I’m not a shipper but I feel the need to defend XY’s POV sometimes when I feel like some shippers just ignore what she herself feels that’s all.

again the entire point of her character is that she doesn’t want to ever go back to that time when she was a killer!!!! it was the worst most miserable time of her life and she doesn’t want a man who does those things!!! that IS the point. She states this so clearly!!!

He’s HARDLY useless.

I think it’s a begrudging “I entrusted the woman I love you you and you keep bring her trouble” but he keeps entrusting her to him this to me it’s an endearing nag. Because to my interpretation deep down he also thinks Jing is a good person worthy of XY.

I agree with this but for whatever reason XY & Jing don’t. But I agree with you.
