Zhao Yang

Exactly I just don’t want my favs doing business with any of his. The only one I actually thought did well was Xu Kai and Yang Zi. They’ve become such great friends since the drama. Neo has a great relationship with everyone but I know for the sake of his fans he would probably not take another script with YZ at the hems. Becuase he’s always ruining something. I know CZY is gonna be crazy wasn’t netizens boycotting the drama before it aired?

Gosh I pray YZ is just taking it to the bottle with his nonsense. He’s asking viewers to run the episodes up 20Mil and he will give a second season, two spin offs about the leads solving cases together and spin offs for the fourth sister and even the second one. He even said they changed the script again at the last minute. So whatever happy ending we get I’m not sure. From his tweet. I highly doubt Neo will come back for another season. At this point is it open ending or happy open ending. Not that it matters much for me anymore just want this over. https://x.com/ncybear/status/2011345616182583325?s=46

yes everywhere as I have a lot to say and I like a lot of others is that a problem?

I will not be able to stomach another drama involving YZ and any of his actors or actresses. If my favorites is starring with them. People want to blame Neo fans with the disappointment of his treatment in the drama but it’s not just us. Literally none fans can see his character has become a former husk of a shell. I know lots of female centric dramas and this one isn’t that. I hope to see him paired with Yang Zi, and a few other favs of mines.

Apparently the original script was changed and badly made his character become a nerf. So in a sense yes and everyone is pissed.

love that novel I’m just not a big fan of the FL but I might give it a chance. since I do love the novel.

I second it we should all send some prayer towards Chen Zhe Yuan. If you’re a fan he has a drama with another actress from YZ camp. Wu Jin Yan whom I loved. He’s second billed but honestly he was treated unfairly from what I saw on Weibo. So I’m praying no more of my favs working with Yz characters. Thankfully YZ couldn’t touch BCE with Yang Zi and Xu Kai. That drama is originally a mother an daughter relationship novel. The Ml is barely there but they gave him a lot of screen time which was good. I hate my baby Zhao Qing is under him because I have no choice to but to watch another drama of his for her and my Bai Lu. He’s like a roach that just won’t leave 😭😭

You’re not. I literally just told someone else the reasons why I enjoyed female centric dramas from last year and years ago. Is because of how well written and realistically the characters were. Like with Mudan she got a win she would get a loss. It’s not win after win after unrealistic win. The girl doesn’t even have the ML to really depend on as she’s always “Do it yourself” unless she truly needs his help. But mostly he respects her and knows she can do anything. I loved characters like this. But what happened after ep.1 is confusing. Like I said I am calling her a freaking isekai character.

Yes run fast. Some don’t want you to leave for the mdl ratings but if you honestly can’t stomach the rest like us poor souls lol then don’t force yourself. I almost forgot that drama that’s one of my favorites. Even the empress of Ki was good. Many think most of us are just whiny females who want to see men in charge everyday. Flourished Peony has a rich merchant daughter same as here. She marries into a fallen official household. they steal her money, the husband at first doesn’t love her. the in laws are rude, etc but the female is kind, gentle, but ruthless and even more shameless she loves freaking money. She’s also realistic she goes through horrible I do mean way more horrible stuff than RSB. But she grits her teeth, smiles an moves forward. The ML is supposed to be seen as a leech of the emperor always giving him toys to play with and spending money recklessly. He’s boring rich and a high official. However, on the darker side he’s ruthless, shameless, conning and when he begins to fall in love. He doesn’t simp about it. If it looks like puppy love it’s not as bad as this here. Every character in that drama has more character depth. The romance isn’t until next season and mid way. Some hated that but now they actually thinks it’s ok as the novel is female centric only. Same as The Heir. another female centric novel coming out in drama in march I believe. If these find to your liking enjoy them. Anything that’s going to trigger you I say run 😭😭

agreed.

If you’re looking for substance this ain’t it anymore. 😭 My rating was initially 10 it’s a 6.5 changed from 10 to 7.5 to now 6.5 I’m aware some of my favs are inside this drama. But sadly the writing has loss me. I came for my favs but initially but stayed because the drama at one point was good. Then it stop as if someone poured black ink on the pages and started rewriting everyone’s characters. If you’re looking for business dramas or strong female centric. Might suggest Flourished peony, In the name of blossom. It’s originally a full season but due to last years rule it had to be split into two. But it’s won many awards etc and still is currently trending on Weibo. CCTV has even brought it back on aired. Another one Story of Yanxi Palace, Sword and Barocde, Story of Kunning Palace, Story of Ming Lan, he’ll even watched the first Glory. There’s Blossoms, Blossoms of Adversity. Anything but this. If you choose to watch just be aware how bad it gets. We’re dealing with our favorite own Goku Shao Bao here. The mighty super saiyan of the Rong tea family.

I know right. I just shudder at the thought of this. This is how I felt when I heard Chen Zhe Yuan will be paired with Wu Jin Yan. Love her but I’ve already seen the mess on Weibo during filming etc and I just know what’s going to happened with that drama. 😭😭

seems my jelly roughing feathers with her new role so much black searches lately on Weibo. glad the studio is suing.

can’t wait for this

😭😭😭

Thank you! I’m glad I’m not the only one. if you say this then some will get upset but she’s literally some anime character with a big power boost and a dang chip on her shoulders. It’s sad the main lead who was once cold blooded ruthless official is now a puppy who’s gotten his nose wide open and now his cherry popped. Acting like a junkie looking for his next nibble of crumb from the fl. It’s also saddened how his character is also acting like he’s a guest in this drama with barely any movement and even scenes. I’m just over wanting them as a couple. What ever happened to RSB in epsiode 1. or even 11. What the hell even happened to LJL bout since ep.1 because his character writing went bad from day one. When he lost his memory. I know it’s happy ending but honestly I wished it wasn’t. Like this is a drama I actually wouldn’t mind a opening ending no closure no happy ending. just “hey we did it and you take care” type of ending. 😭

He definitely isn’t giving main character he’s not even given side character but more so guest role 😭

Same. Instead we got puppy LJL

Don’t care about the romance anymore haven’t in a long time since ep. I would say 20 to maybe 22. This started out really good but somehow it became as “The legend of Rong Shao Bao and her Love sicked lackey Offical Lu Jiang Lai.” I honestly had my hopes up too high thinking this could’ve been another masterpiece but it’s not even that. The darker tone of the drama is being pushed towards the last 6 episodes and the so called romance? This isn’t a true love calling story anymore. I don’t care if I only came for Neo and a few of my other favs. I still came and even showed great support to the full cast even Nazha who I’ve never been a fan of her acting. Yet her earlier stages of her character won me over. Now she’s some bootleg unofficial official of the govt tackling cases and out witting everyone. The reason why people loved Hei We Fang, Wei Ying Luo, Ming Lan etc. It’s because they were more realistic characters and well written at that. They had short comings and some winnings. However, in this no offense RSB seems to be like that all powerful MC in the anime’s who keeps getting a power boost. Like a crazy Isekai just all powerful and stuff. it’s insufferable and unbelievable at this point. This is just my opinion so I don’t need any person jumping under my comment trying to tell me otherwise or asked me the stupid “What show are you watching?” crap. I can understand just fine and this drama isn’t making any sense anymore to me. Glad others are enjoying it but I’m not and therefore is allowed to voice my opinions and feel this way. Express isn’t coming fast enough for me.

It happened during filming but it’s old news just a lot of us were upset how he was being forced to work so hard. it’s also happened with Chen Zhe Yuan and another one of Yu Zheng actresses. But you is right. Her character is colder and so is her so called love. She once wasn’t as hollow as she is now. I don’t even see the former cold blooded ruthless LjL anymore either. It’s like the characters did a personality swap. She took his traits and he took the inner little girl in her. I have adjusted my rating to a 7.5 from a 10. The drama isn’t entertaining anymore I’m too just trying to complete it.
