The following scene in the novel was quite funny rather than being ambiguous due to Liao Tingyan's salted fish nature. But due to censorship it might not have been filmed at all or maybe cut down. This scene also showed Sima Jiao's own reflection about his attitude towards our goose FL which paved the dynamic for their future interactions.
She didn't speak for a long time, her expression was heavy, and Sima Jiao's expression also became heavy, a little irritable, "What are you thinking about?"
Liao Tingyan: "My breasts seem to have grown suddenly?" The legs seemed to have become longer, and the skin on the hands seemed to be whiter and brighter, as if a beauty filter was turned on.
Sima Jiao: "Breasts?" He looked at Liao Tingyan's breasts for the first time.
Liao Tingyan looked down at her breasts, thinking about whether to touch them or not, but considering that she was being held by a man, she was too embarrassed to do so. Just as she was trying to hold back, she saw Sima Jiao reaching out his hand with a cold face and touching them very naturally.
Liao Tingyan: ??? What are you doing with your hand? Where are you touching? ?
Sima Jiao: “It’s just two pieces of meat. What’s the point of having them so big?”
Seeing the disgust and disapproval on his face, Liao Tingyan gave him a fake smile: “Put your hand down before you say that.” Liao Tingyan had a strong desire to survive, and at the same time, she was very sensitive to danger, so every time she saw Sima Jiao, her master, she was timid, tried to speak as little as possible, treated him as her ancestor, and used polite language. But now, when this ancestor weighed her chest like a piece of pork, her rationality instantly went offline, and she became timid and touched Sima Jiao's butt and pinched it.
Sima Jiao: "..."
You can't touch a tiger's butt, Liao Tingyan looked at the other person's expression and suddenly thought of this sentence. She slowly let go of her hand, feeling that her desire to survive began to recover, so her expression changed from anger to calm and then to confusion with a little timidity. She leaned in Sima Jiao's arms, holding her left hand obediently, and turned her head to look at the rolling clouds in the sky.
I look at the sky, I look at the earth, but I don't look at you.
Liao Tingyan was waiting for this bad-tempered ancestor to throw her off the moving snake car, and she also thought about the precautions for jumping out of the car. After waiting for a long time, she didn't wait. She glanced at him from the side and met Sima Jiao's eyes. His eyes were cold and chilly, stinging her brain. He was scary when he was gloomy and irritable, scary when he smiled in a perverted way, and still scary when he had no expression.
Liao Tingyan: Oh, why can't I control my hand.jpg
Sima Jiao held her hand that was pinching his butt. Her wrist was slender and white, and in his overly white hand, it seemed that it would break if bent. His movements were very intimate. His broad palm wrapped around her hand, and his slender fingers slowly stroked her wrist with a little force -
Liao Tingyan swore with her suddenly long legs that this ancestor was now ready to pinch her wrist and teach her a lesson. The situation was urgent, Liao Tingyan acted faster than she thought, subconsciously following Sima Jiao's movements, grabbed his hand and firmly pressed it on her chest, "Calm down, please touch my chest, touch it as you like."
She guessed right, Sima Jiao's abnormal mood changed at any time, he wanted to kill someone if someone touched his finger, not to mention being pinched on the butt. He was stunned at first, after all, there were people in the world who dared to kill him, but no one dared to touch his butt. After he realized this, the only thought in his mind was to teach her a lesson - this was because he had no disgust for this person and was somewhat interested in him. The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped.
But he didn't expect her to do this. His hand, which wanted to use force, was suddenly pressed on a soft place, and the force was not retracted, just like pinching a ball of cotton, completely unloading the force.
Liao Tingyan pressed his hand, with an upright expression, like a salesman, "Try it, it feels really good." Who wouldn't like a big, fragrant and soft young lady's breasts? Men and women like them, even arrogant creatures like cats like them. Don't be too happy to step on breasts. It's no problem for a murderer.
Sima Jiao did everything just because of the sudden impulse in his heart. It was probably because his blood relatives were all crazy, and he himself was also a crazy person, irritable and bloodthirsty. When he felt unhappy, he would want a channel to vent, and this channel was naturally killing. Whoever made him unhappy, he wanted to kill.
The person in front of him was very special. She had survived under his hands many times, and she was the only one who could make him give up his murderous intentions one after another. Others often died on the spot when he first had the murderous intention, but she inexplicably made him calm down his anger and murderous intentions again and again, just like now, the impulse to crush her wrist just now was gone.
she does plot to kill him multiple times in order to change her ending. and surely, there’s more to the storyline…
But before awakening if he did do things to the FL, I don't know If I can accept this kind of plot. I was hoping this drama to be the fake red flag you know the troupe "The ML acts domineering and stuff like red flag but actually a total green flag only towards the FL" . I prefer red flag ML characters to be like Sima Jiao from offering salted fish novel I mean fake red flags
There's this thing with this show.The plot is actually VERY good. Everyone have been given proper motivations…
I kinda understand. I just came to read spoilers to understand this drama dynamics to see if it is okay to watch and avoid my minefields. I haven't watched this drama yet but both "ancient love poetry" and 'the last immortal" irked me so much I get angry just thinking about some scenes. I agree that both drama had decent plotline and cast but the story was an annoying angst that just made my blood boil. Both of these dramas can be summarized as such "One evil b**** 's desire for power and taking over the magpie's nest caused everything" Be it that low bloodline phoneix huanhuan in ALP or the girl who pretended to be the ML's savior in TLI who manipulated things which mixed with the various misunderstanding because of troupe such as "doing good for the other person" 'I will die so lets keep my distance and not care what happens to her" "silently doing things for the other person but never clarifying" "for the greater good" blah blah blah.... I really can't stomach drama plots that carry forward like this anymore. I would like to make myself clear again that both ALP and TLI are good dramas and I am not criticizing them; just that I can't enjoy these angsty dramas. Its a personal preference, no offense.
So, this drama ML character is set up as a red flag scumbag.. who kills the fl, slaps her, insults her and other things..to top it off also had an affair with her sister and got her pregnant.. I really like both the actor and actress.. and has been waiting for Li Yi Tong's big drama.. but I really can't stomach the FL ending up with a scumbag in the story.. red flag MLs are not my thing.. Couldn't we have a plot of cool female counterattack rather than the female being forced by system or book world to please the bad ML for survival..
Anyone got any news of possible release date? Please share...This is the drama for which I have got the highest expectation this year as the novel is one of my top fav in this genre and the cast looks very promising in-line with novel characters. Dying of waiting !!!! Even feud which I thought would be late got a release date..
I had a very strong dislike for this "foreign princess" arc as well. His behavior made no sense to me. I did not…
Thank you for your spoiler. It would have been nice if they at least added a small scene for that child's background in a clear way. But whatever, I will also watch with the first choice in mind otherwise it feels a bit far fetched.
Initially thought the ML was just an introvert and very shy in expressing his love. Looks like all he truly wanted…
Thanks for the spoiler. I read the novel. Honestly the novel ML wasn't that good either..in the last part of the story it showed, it kind of ended as a wishy washy romance. From the spoiler it looks like the drama made the FL much smarter and stronger but also miserable. Just because she seems like a strong wildflower who can survive in any harsh environment so the male lead calculated her worth that she deserved to be a shield to a child her husband had with another woman and serve a mother-in-law wholeheartedly whereas her own mother died a miserable death. The ML even thinks he is doing her a favor since she is in a bad situation. I am not asking for a sweet romance , but at the very least she should have a fair share of the deal, not always suffering grievances. From the plot revealed so far the ML is poisoned so he wants her to take care of his family, does that mean she will have to be widow and childless her whole life carrying his burdensome family, if she has to pay such a great price then the ML should at least come clean when he decided to marry her, help her in revenge , take her side in as a reliable ally and show some sincerity. I remember the FL was quite sincere with him when they got to know each other..it was only after the proposal and mother's death and various things happened she realised his manipulation then she became completely wary towards him. Honestly speaking with how FL is she can become a qualified noble wife in any great family and align interests to gain power then slowly take her own revenge. At least that would be fair. I don't think its wrong for FL to not be transparent and nice to ML because he doesn't deserve it. He is getting more out of this deal by paying almost nothing ( as his previous act of saving her was for getting himself scott free) and no matter the excuse of it being dark romance or whatever there is no way sugar coating the fact that the ML himself and this marriage is a huge firepit. The ML is definitely at fault. If the first reason for the FL going nuts now is the FL's villain dad then the 2nd is definitely him. It hurts the most when you thought there was someone you could trust your back when you are doing something risky but that person turns out to be the one who might stab you at anytime. I don't agree that the both the FL and ML are equally twisted and hurting each other, because the female lead was forced to be (remember when she first came back to the capital she still had some kindness and hope) but ML was a selfish jerk from the beginning ; and the ML acting hurt after everything is still going according to his plan is shows what a selfish hypocrite he is.
I had a very strong dislike for this "foreign princess" arc as well. His behavior made no sense to me. I did not…
Thank you. I also think that marriage does not make sense. As a scheming male lead its natural to investigate his betrothed family..so he should have known that the FL who was his real fiance was sent to the countryside (I am not asking to him to bring the FL back and do justice for her due to marriage contract as they were just strangers ) but it would be reasonable if he could at least investigate the reason why his fiance was sent away, if there was any conspiracy behind changing the wedding partner and if it would bring any harm to his own family; but he just goes forward with the marriage with a concubine's daughter that doesn't even meet the standard of aristocratic society. Please let me know if you get to know any spoiler about his first marriage. Thank you very much.
I don't think they'll include this character but no guarantee. The drama is short at 30 eps and barely connected…
Hi, Can you please give spoiler about the drama? Whats happening with the male lead being married? Why did he marry the FL's sister? Did the ML had a happy married life with her sister with children.. if that happened it would ruin my interest in drama
I had a very strong dislike for this "foreign princess" arc as well. His behavior made no sense to me. I did not…

Same here..Its because of that arc that I am waiting for the drama to end before watching.. If that disgusting arc is included no matter how good the acting or plot I simply can't stomach it.. The novel just glossed over this part as if the injustice the FL suffered never happened and it made me think the ML doesn't deserve her at all.. When I was reading the novel, I simply couldn't believe that this author who has written so many amazing MLs could write this kind of plot...ugh... I hope someone could give me a spoiler when the drama ends
Does anyone know if the drama will have "foreign princess Irene" arc like the novel which ruins their engagement? Honestly speaking I found this part of the novel quiet disgusting, even though I am a fan of this author.
Novel Spoiler Next# In the novel, the ML went to war and he came back with the princess of the defeated country on the day of the 'FL's growing up ji ceremony" and their marriage was cancelled That princess was made the new fiance of the ML; the reason being that barbaric princess has a method to supress the cold poison so the emperor and the ML agreed to that barbaric princess's request to move into his house as his to be spouse ( How ridiculous! That princess was from a defeated country and with the male lead and emperor's scheming there were many ways to make the princess give medical treatment...and the male lead thought it was a good choice as he would die and the complexity of female lead's hidden identity as the real royalty and blah blah.. ) And the worst thing is that he didn't even take that medicine because he thought he would be dependant on it like drug adddiction..so what was the point of the female lead having her engagement broken on her 15 year old ji ceremony and becoming an abandonment woman in that ancient society... later that princess even spread the rumor that she spent a night with a man outside which completely ruined her reputation making her a laughing stock..and the ML did literally nothing.. That part of novel chapters made the female lead look like a pitiful sentimental loser. Later, all of it was swept under the rug with the female lead finding about the male lead's illness and her real identity and then with her becoming sentimental unlike the strong woman she started out to be; then she took the initiative to go to the ML and plan everything to have a good ending. In the end , it was the female lead's real maternal relatives who actually solves the cold poison of the male lead and they get HE.
This is the only male lead I hated among all the novels of this author. No matter what the reason was, even if he wanted to break off the engagement due to his illness or other things, there was no need to make her a joke in society; her situation was so bad, it took a lot of effort and strategies to make her life better but with an unilateral decision from his side with no prior communication, no due respect..nothing she was pushed out like that. The worst part is that the novel just wrapped it up like it never happened. I felt that the female lead endured too much and gave too much for this relationship. Xie jin xing is a far cry ahead from this male lead as he would do everything to protect Shen Miao's reputation and never undermine her prestige in front of anyone.
