Belatedly realizing that her Lord was displeased, Ming Yi quickly put down the mirror and obediently came over to massage his shoulders, “How could that be? My Lord treats this slave generously and even promises to give me five gold bars. This slave’s life is very comfortable.”
Her gaze was cautious, looking like someone who didn’t understand why he would be angry about her lacking money, yet still had to placate him.
He couldn’t help but pinch her soft little face, “If I were penniless, would you still follow me?”
Ming Yi rolled her eyes, “If this slave were plain and unattractive, would my Lord have brought me back to the mansion?”
Both were driven by self-interest; who was she to use such words to trap whom?
A lump of anger stuck in his chest, he darkly brushed away her hand.
After not seeing her for over ten days, he thought she might have missed him. Who knew he was just being presumptuous? He had even been counting the days until his return and had Bu Xiu watch over her, fearing she might be bullied in his absence. The result? He was raising a heartless creature.
“Oh, my Lord~” Seeing the situation turn unfavorable, Ming Yi quickly threw herself into his arms. “Why are you angry? This slave is ultimately yours. Look, someone gave me such valuable love gu, and I reported everything to you without any intention of harming you. How can you not understand this slave’s feelings?”
These words sounded more pleasing to his ears.
Ji Bozai lightly snorted, lifting her chin to examine her face for a moment, then noted with satisfaction, “You’ve lost some weight.”
She must have been missing him.
(LOL, the vanity of Ji BoZai in the novel when it comes to her, these dialuges of theirs are freekin hilarious!!!)
God I’ve been trying to avoid this drama for so damn long because I knew for A DAMN FACT THAT I WOULD NEVER…
I feel for you!! It was way worse for me! i started watching while getting ready for Exams, thinking i would watch 1 ep at a time. I ended up binge watching for three days. I literally lost sleep.
I like this one, but prefer the other three i have watched. ML´s performance had dark undertones in the other versions, you could literally feel his grief and anxiety and yearning for his lost first love whom he treated so horribly in the past
I love your review!! Sums up my feelings pretty well! And hell yess! Buziu do deserve his own Spin-off!!!! He is freekin hilarious and badass, perfect mix!!!Oh, did i say GORGEOUS!!!!
Ji Bozai & Ming Yi embodies perfect chemistry in my mind-the actors are incredible!!
I saw some shorts on youtube and was really intrigued especially since it involves one of my fave guilty pleasure tropes which is the forbidden aspect of student-teacher romance. And i do not mean when Male is the teacher and the student female, i mean when its the opposite. So much more sexier (hehe).
Tiffany Hsu really brought out the complex, broken and tortured soul of Meng Yun alive on-screen, whose family was ripped apart by a betrayal and the tragedy thereafter. She is kind to people and dedicated as a teacher, instantly despising YiXiang when she meets him for the first time. There is a sensual undertone in mids of their hostile encounters where YiXiang tries to break her will (as he has done to many other teachers) and YiXiang cannot undermine the thought of viewing her as a beautiful mysterious woman. His great heart got stolen by her, and he falls so hard for her.
Its the first time i have seen Edward Chen on-screen and oh my what a terrific actor! He is handsome in a very manly way. Loved his brash and energetic persona, the way he protects the people he cares about, his fearless way of pursuing MengYun, with his heart & soul bare on his sleeve, for her to shatter whenever she wants to by his heartfull permission.
Omg thank you for the amazing words!! I'm so happy you're discovering these gems wow!! 💜💜💜Yes, omggg…
i am here FAN-GIRLING WITH YOU!!!! I felt it in my heart that i would come to love this drama!!!! again, you are amazing in writing reviews! you convey your feelings & thoughts so well!
Your review is a BANGER! Because of your reviews i have been watching three dramas. I finished "Twin Fates" and "Love in The Clouds"-all which are 10 stars for me!
Now i am currently watching Love Game in Eastern Fantasy- now EP 22. Your reviews are totally tantalizing! aghhhhh i had seen Esther before in "Devil & Fairy" and it is my first time watching DYX on-screen, and his performance as Mu Sheng/ Ziqi is OMG MINDBLOWING, He makes me so giddy with his antics and just passionate and vulnerable/shy persona. He is such a richly created character!their chemistry is....i don`t have words...(sigh)
Wow Congrats to him! I super appreciate what a true talent he is on-screen!
He stole my heart when i was a 13 year old when i first watched Dream High. He was the coolest character who could kick ass, dance and sing at the same time while looking at the heroine (in this case Suzy) like his soul was taken from him.
Many years later i watch him in Vincenzo. He is incredible! Wish him so much happiness & peace!
I think because JBZ never give any hope or kindness to other woman he doesn’t like.. he just used them like…
Most ML in novels (especially Chinese written) are red flags,but I am not afraid of that.Truth to be told Ji BoZai should be of a more darker character since how deeply horrible his upbringing was especially surviving the pits of Hell.
Okay people, I might sound controversial here, (hehe😌)
We may despise an Evil Second Female Lead, but why is there no other girl vying for Ji Bo Zai’s affections? I mean he had his love rival in Situ Ling and imaginary Ming Xian, I SO WISH WE GOT TO HAVE SEEN Ming Yi jealous and possessive of him😭🌸
And Ji Bo Zai would have loooved every second of it😭😭😭

back again and re-watching, currently on ep 33 so i have 4 episodes left.
incredible journey indeed
It was way worse for me! i started watching while getting ready for Exams, thinking i would watch 1 ep at a time. I ended up binge watching for three days. I literally lost sleep.
ML´s performance had dark undertones in the other versions, you could literally feel his grief and anxiety and yearning for his lost first love whom he treated so horribly in the past
This version had more lighthearted touch to that.
I loved this story for its passion between the leads and ML was super dreamy!
The last 2 episodes felt like a slap to the face, honestly
And hell yess! Buziu do deserve his own Spin-off!!!!
He is freekin hilarious and badass, perfect mix!!!Oh, did i say GORGEOUS!!!!
