Someone like her, coming from that kind of family, can't bring herself to say it. She would rather give everything…
Yes, but if you remember, there is a scene where she tells her pet that once she steals the golden millet and leaves, he will hate her and forget about her. She knows things will get ugly, but she hopes/thinks once she goes back to her disguised self, there will be no more Mingyi.
She knows things won’t be that simple as he would just forget her and… That’s why I said she’s just being human. Most people can think clearly when judging others’ emotional decisions, but when we’re the ones caught in those moments, who knows what kind of foolish choices we’d make? She believes that once she returns to being Ming Xian, there will be no more JBZ or Mingyi.

I think it’s more that she doesn’t want to know what he would happen after she tells him the truth. Would he still give her the golden millet, or would his trust in her shatter or something even worse? She knows that JBZ never trusts anyone, but now he is truly trusting her, and she is scared. What would he think if he knew that she approached him for the golden millet dream like everyone else? To her, stealing seems like the simpler choice. She just can’t summon the courage to face what might happen.
She’s lived her whole life hiding her true feelings from her mother and perhaps even from her pet. She can face horrors like Nether beasts without flinching, but when it comes to emotions, she’s terrified. She never learned how to deal with them.
In episode 22, when she was about to reveal her true identity, she stopped. His honest, caring eyes made her feel a kind of fear she never knew existed. She knows he loves her deeply, but that knowledge alone isn’t enough to dispel her fear. In the end, she’s just being human.
I think it's Mingyi that was captured, or maybe the fox girl, because in the teaser there is a glimpse(0.45) of…
I was trying to say that they looked similar, but I just compared their costumes, and yeah, I think it's really her spirit pet that was chained. Maybe things would go down similar to your theory.
I LOVED WDbtD!! 😍 Struggling with the plot and character development with this show, though. It’s the gorgeousness…
I loved the early episodes of WDBTD, but later I just skipped parts other than the main couple's screen time. At some point I stopped caring about the plot and other characters; it felt quite dragging, but the main couple was fire.
Episode 13 was full of speculations and no concrete evidence, so she can still lie her way out. JBZ literally fought against Ming Xian and saw his face and build; Ming Yi's build is totally different. So how can JBZ be convinced that Ming Yi is Ming Xian without irrefutable evidence?
Yup, might as well confess fully because ML actually respects her real identity. But, hey, this adds another 5-10…
I think it is more complicated than merely adding run time. She trusts him, but she cannot risk her life by telling him the truth. She doesn't believe he will give her the golden millet; instead, she believes it will only make it harder for her to get it. You should also consider the type of life she led. It kind of helps understand why she was unable to bring herself to tell JBZ the truth.
Ming Xian, she knows her situation yet she's nowhere prepared for moments when suspicions of her true identity…
It happened all of a sudden, and she didn't expect them to bring a mirror search artifact. Before that artifact, regardless of what she said, it wouldn't work, and she couldn't manipulate the artifact as easily as Ji Bozai without exposing herself, and I think she took a back seat because that was the best option there.
She lies because she has lived her whole life lying to everyone about her identity; it's not that easy to just reveal her identity, and there is no guarantee what would happen if her identity were revealed. She wants to at least cure herself and gain the power back to protect herself before telling the truth. She trusts him, but she doesn't know if he will give her the golden millet if he knows about her condition. She couldn't gamble with her life, so she chose the safest option she could think of.
Jbz is not clever enough to understand Ming yi is Ming xian? The princess uncle told him that the cat belongs…
For the past seven years everyone has seen Mingxian as a man. so Ji Bozai might be thinking that she must be related to Mingxian and not a man turning into a woman.
Lmao the way they just gave up and let him carve the names. "Whenever I feel pain, I will make you feel it…
I think she's already started to develop feelings for him. Before episode 10, she normally tried to avoid kissing or crossing boundaries, but she didn't seem to be thinking about them as much now. Whether or not she fell for Ji Bozai, even her spiritual beast hesitated about answering to her master.
