I still really like this drama, but I want SO MUCH MORE ROMANCE.
In the source material, this Manhua was trapped in legalities, JUST AS Sun admits he wants her. So, it has no romance, other than the UST, Unresolved Sexual Tension. It's not typical romance shizzle, because there's no 'i like you' or 'i love you' silliness. He's having a bad day, and suddenly admits he's going to have her, if she will have him. He never makes anything about himself, he makes it very clear, it's IF SHE WILL HAVE HIM. He's not a fluffy individual, she's not either. 'CG, if you cannot stay in Tang anymore, will you come to me?' 'If you come to me, let me deal with obstacles'
He wants to always be with her, and cement that somehow. She's never said she is his, and he's the type to not try anything, unless she tells him outright.
He's the only man in the manhua that doesn't bend women to his will. You can tell the artist is a woman, because she's written a good man, just a good man.
did they use manga style to save budget and cut cost or it was intentional lol
You also should know, her manhua was halted, indefinitely, due to legal litigations. This manhua may never be finished as a result. This is why people are especially happy to see the manhua nods, because the artist deserves it. We hope the pressure will be immense to give her back her creation, so she can finish it. The bastards trying to keep this manhua in legal litigation forever, deserve some shit. First they mistreat their artist, then they hold her 'baby' captive.
I' quite enjoying this drama and definitely following it to the end. But I have a few problems with it that I'd…
The two strands of hair are a HUGE part of the source material, almost their own character. This is how you quickly identify FL. Along with her mole, under her eye, these are the two aspects to identify CG, and how she's tracked down ultimately. This was filmed during covid summer 2020, so huge battles were iffy at the very least. The animations also play significant homage, and is a nod towards us manhua fans. It was a good way to solve the covid situation.
This manhua is trapped in legal litigations, for years now, and may never be finished, due to a dodgy company who mistreated their artist, then went on to hold her 'baby' captive. This manhua is way too good to never be finished.
This is a personal growth story, masquerading as a revenge plot, with some romantic aspects. The romance is largely that Sun is a GOOD MAN, an actual good man, who wants to walk beside her, not drag her along,or push her forward. That is so effing hot, and their 'eye pulling' is so natural, as it occurs naturally irl too, that we don't need them to lick face. If they actually were to smooch, I'd be having a painful chest, for certain.
This is not really the 'run of the mill' Chinese romance saga. I like that. He internalizes what he realizes are his own wishes and wants, instead of forcing them on CG, and trying to change her. Like, 'hang on, these are my FEELINGS, not hers, so let's have another tipple and not burden this free spirit, lets help where we can however', type of man. I believe this is, because initially, she was a friend at first, a man he respected at the very least.The fact that she turned out to be a woman, was just another layer to the Chang Ge onion. She is as capable as him, yet approx 5 years younger, her gender is also SUPPOSED to invalidate her, amongst other things. It's so ridiculously sexy, the dynamic.
After finding out she was a girl, he IMMEDIATELY allowed the girls in his camp, to learn how to shoot bows and learn more about protecting themselves. This is the kind of man we're dealing with.
I'm a Buffy fan, so this kind of dynamic is everything I love about a FL.
here here. But when? sigh. I still see a few people in comment sections saying how they have sibling energy. To…
She has a young spirit, always has. Personality-wise, they are the same age. When they are with each other, they vibe on the same plane. When you take someone who's been in showbiz, for over half their lifetime, as he has, and someone who's such a free spirit, as she is, you don't feel the age difference when they're together. She's basically a tomboy, with the body and face of a goddess. She eats like a horse, plays like a man and doesn't conform to any of the preconceived standards that people put upon her. She has talents, that her good appearance somehow are supposed to stop her from having? People who are that pretty, don't usually cultivate themselves and have other talents. She blows people away, because she's supposed to be mediocre on the inside.
I understand, her goddess like appearance doesn't match with her personality, but that's why she's so great. Men like her because of all this, she can play hard with them, and then knock em dead with her smile.
I sound like a Reba fan, but I promise I'm actually a Bai Lu fangirl haha. To me, Bai Lu is exactly like Reba, only better. To me, she's just a little bit sharper.
When Sun is so hurt, he decides to self medicate in front of CG and his step brother, step daddy too ofc. Already then, there's a point where his brother doesn't find it funny or entertaining anymore. Big hint already there, that this isn't true hatred, it's just childish jealousy and competitiveness. This guy just never stops to think, and Sun has obviously always known where it's at, yet also been PAINFULLY aware, that his brother doesn't know when to stop. His brother knows heartache, see Mimi, so he feels Sun, right then and there, yet the competitive streak strikes again, seconds later.
Damn ... when their eyes meet ... holy smoke ... both have electrical charges ... whether it is onscreen or off…
You know that scene in Crossfire, when Luhan was kissing, and everyone was like ''woha! was that tongue?!!!' I want one of THOSE with these two. Then I'll go hospital, straight after. I'll take care of my health, I promise, I just need my heart RUINED by these two, first.
Imma need to leave this right here, out in the open like. The ML couple need to reunite for a drama, at the point in time when Leo has started kissing in dramaland. Dilraba is known for her saucy smooching, and this would be FIRE.
If this drama actually had actual heavy kissing, I'd need a damned hospital! Their chemistry, off screen and on screen is so damned thicc.
So, it has no romance, other than the UST, Unresolved Sexual Tension.

These two can't help themselves
