Mstique

Thanks for the explanation. I had even made up my very own alternative facts (lol): the ml is a Prince and son of the previous emperor by a concubine.

Oh yeah? Any good ones?

Ladies and gents, the ml is the son of the previous emperor by a concubine?

oh snap? how did I miss all of that??? well, I’ve only watched 8 episodes…I guess we don’t know that fact yet? but how did he even met the fl?

I meant to type when 10 or more episodes are released (I’m watched the first 8 episodes). I may even wait until the whole show is completed. I am too invested in this show so waiting for one episode a day is almost unbearable.

WeTV - one episode vip and one episode express a day. Ain’t no way I’m paying .99$ a day for the express one!

Why would Zi Yu take the throne? Is he some kind of prince or something? and how did he even meet the fl…I would think they would not walk in the same circles if she is not from the nobility

The show is so good but that one episode a day is too much. Will put it on hold until atleas 10 or so episodes are released.

That is so true. He (Xu Kai) also plays a flirty-playful character in that republic era drama with Bai Lu.

Any recommendations where the ml is super flirty, playful with the fl…I don’t come across a lot of cdramas where the ml is flirty-playful with the fl

The ml is shameless in the novel, and is constantly trying to do the deed and frustrating the fl with his craziness. I cannot see this ml in the drama acting like the ml in the novel (partly due to censorship). I hope they will somewhat follow the novel because the ml can be so over the top and the fl does not know how to rein him in. Lol

which chapter ???!!!! lol

I haven’t finished the novel yet. I was also furious by his matter of fact approach, gaslighting and feeling no remorse. He blamed the fl for losing control. Right now, I’m at the part where he injured himself to avoid marrying that princess and the fl is taking care of him. I was like « girl what are you doing ??? » But I already know they will fool around in 3…2..1 lol

I was actually surprised by his reaction after she found out the truth about the deception. He was like, « oh so you know, ok, get over it, and let’s talk about the future ». Dude was so furious when she left without saying goodbye, especially after the deed.

I hope so because in the novel, groveling is not his thing lol

I finally know why the ml looks a bit like a villain: it’s the brows, ladies and gents, the eyebrows lol

The ml is not that nice in the novel and deceived the fl for almost two years! When the fl finds out the truth about the deception, she is furious. Ml’s attitude is like « get over it, and let’s talk about our future ». He then gets mad that she leaves him without saying goodbye. He sent his people to spy on her. When they report back to him, he gets even more mad, jealous or love sick.

In the novel (haven’t finished it), he is not that nice…spoilers incoming

She is upset but the ml doesn’t seem to comprehend that. In his eyes, the good outweighs the “lie”. He is furious when she leaves him without saying goodbye.

In the novel, the charade goes on for almost 2 years!! I haven’t reached the part where she remembers everything. She only finds out that the ml lied to her and used her and his identity after almost two years of living as husband and wife.
