Them chewing the buns but it not affecting them is just an unrealistic asian dramas thing, I feel. Yea, I was…
I watched the chewing scene multiple times due to my complete disbelief and the sml didn’t even look like he was faking eating it! I am like, how are you going to put it in your mouths, then checked if it’s poisoned? You are fine because you didn’t shallow? Insanity!
Well for me, ep 25 was pretty skippable, because I am tired of these Nancy Drew side quests., Let’s get back…
I read some key parts of the novel (that I enjoyed), so I am not sure if all these side quests were already there, but overall, yes, I am a bit dissatisfied. My expectations are not high whenever it’s a novel adaptation because I know they will whitewash the characters, most likely, due to censorship or because the mls are too cray, toxic, obsessed and/or complete red flags, like:
- ml in Are you the One - ml in Rise of Ning - ml in Love me, Kill me
Why would the villains let SML into the jail when they planned on poisoning her? Contrived plot to get them together.…
I am still wondering why the sml had that expression on his face when he entered the jail cell. Like that half smile, like he just entered heaven, followed but his comments? lol. This dude is a puppy lol
Everyone was saying episode 25 didn’t have anything. It had the attempt to rescue another woman. Just because…
Well for me, ep 25 was pretty skippable, because I am tired of these Nancy Drew side quests., Let’s get back to the main quest now, it’s been 26 episodes!
Yeah its a very simplistic drama , lots of 🙄🥱 Still not much else on to watch and I am rewatching a few…
As soon as I saw that rat in prison, I was like, that rat is a side character because ain’t no way in a c-drama where the streets on pristine, and the prison is dustless, they would zoom in on a rat lol
I don’t know how I feel about this show. There has been no real progress since the fl lost her memories in ep 2. Sure, we have had a lot of Nancy Drew episodes of the fl, the ml, the sml investigating crimes, and being “in the know” all over the capital. Ok, good for them, but we have had 26 episodes of this (and soon to be 28 episodes based on the previews). How about we go back to the events that led to the cliff incident and move that investigation along, same with what happened to the ml’s master?
I had hoped that her discovering that she’s not his “sister” would be a turning point, but no, the side quests-Nancy Drew investigations continue. So the events leading to the cliff incident was never the main plot?
So the sml got punched at his request, and somehow he ended up in jail? Why? Conveniently placed in the same cell as the fl while still carrying his bag? They didn’t remove his bag? Why? Almost immediately villains “guards” came to distribute food? The food consisted of two pieces of bread? How convenient! They pretended to eat it but didn’t shallow to fool the villain? Conveniently they were able to check whether the food was poisoned AFTER PUTTING IT IN THEIR MOUTHS, because you know, cells have rats, and the rat came out immediately from his hiding place to assist the plot! They were then able to escape the cell, and were saved immediately by the ml, because he was conveniently, at the right place, right time! LOL
Ep 1 is so heavy on the details. Fl, her sister, attack, web lady, masked man (ml), lady poison, lord demon, tower, massacre of 5000, retaliation, innocent killed, tree, coffin, poison king arrives out of no where, now everybody fighting in the purple clouds, lighting, lots of talking during the fight, not interested AT ALL, collection of swords, I don’t even remember who they are fighting again. Oh, the episode ends abruptly. Does it get better?
I’m afraid that once Mingshu finds out she’s not Lu Chang’s real sister, she’ll start accepting Qing ……
I actually believes she won’t start accepting Qing. Once her memory returns, she will be upset and maybe try to cut ties with them ml. There will be angst but she will never go back to considering Qing as a potential suitor because her feelings for the ml will resurfaced again.
It’s like comparing oranges with apples. His circumstances are entirely different from the ml. If he was placed in the same circumstances, had the same upbringing, went to the same struggles, yes, he would be up to the task as well because he would be the ml lol.
My expectations are not high whenever it’s a novel adaptation because I know they will whitewash the characters, most likely, due to censorship or because the mls are too cray, toxic, obsessed and/or complete red flags, like:
- ml in Are you the One
- ml in Rise of Ning

Another skippable episode. I feel like I am watching the three musketeers
