ShortCircuit

"Sometimes he's very happy"... "people on set keep giving him food."

I smell something suspicious here. What could it be? :D

(He's definitely a very happy doggie. I am a cat person, but I'd spoil this dog if he were mine, he's just a ray of sunshine - in colour too :D)

I mean... he's 31, he does know better even if she grows infatuated with him. He treats all school girls like little girls, it gets a bit hilarious at times, LOL. (It doesn't happen often.)

... And that's why, kids, one shouldn't have TikTok (among many other reasons) :D

MDL tags aren't always accurate, so I've grown wary of them :D

Hey, fellow long-commenter! I get taken away with the flow from time to time, too, LOL, even when wrong, hahaha~ One can always learn new things, so it's worth it.

ETA Proof - TU does indeed have the xianxia tag :D

(Offtopic) So I was browsing the site not logged in - because of reasons - and I saw a lot of incel and "alpha" males comments calling the FL all kinds of mysoginistic names and debating her lack of virtue and all. I came now again - logged in - and they're all gone. Turns out, they already managed to go waving their minuscule tools around slandering all FLs and even MLs they consider weak or not up to their standards in other dramas' topics, and I've already blocked most of them.

I highly recommend you do, too. They're too toxic to even read, and hypocritical over the top (the same "alpha" who's calling the FL all kinds of names here is slobbering over another FL on an airing drama, she probably fits his ideals of virginity and "cuteness" or whatever turns his tiny little brain). Sad, really, but one doesn't need to see it after all - so block them, if you will. You won't miss anything important.

That is all.

I'll just have to stay wrong then, it's too much getting it so precise. I'm in this for enjoyment, not for getting a PhD in it, LOL :D

Thanks for the extra explanation, though :)

I'm offering myself as a sacrifice if he'll take me LOL.

Looks like the child coming precipitated the wedding, as usual. It's really a long marriage, all things considered. Anyway, It's their own private matter in the end, so good luck to them and hopefully the child doesn't suffer much.

Populate your watched-list, so we know what you've seen and don't repeat those :D

It's fantasy/isekai though. For another example,The Untamed isn't a fantasy with gods and other supernaturals and it's still xianxia, too. I think xianxia isn't restricted to the three realms LOL.

Yeah, he has the looks, at least :D The dark broody one. I think it's safe to assume that if he wants to, he'll get more roles :D

TTOTR is pure fantasy/isekai LOL. Might not be pure xianxia, but fantasy might be classed with xianxia usually, IMHO.

The nanny was probably writing messages back to NanWu like crazy, an encyclopedia of notes that she had had no time to send yet. LOL. I'm imagining her at a telegraph station, writing Morse Code like nobody's business :D

Perfect Match (2024) (six sisters with not much dowry, all need to marry, costume drama romcom, feels very much like a Chinese version of Pride and Prejudice)

Destined (2023) (girl marries someone she thinks a rascal, finds true love instead, costume drama, romcom plus some action)

New Life Begins (2022) (same ML as Destined, girls from all regions of the empire have to come to a marriage selection and would have to stay for at least a year even if they decide not to continue the marriage. It involves girls cooperating to find their way in a patriarchal world - costume drama, romcom)

The Romance of Tiger and Rose (2020) (xianxia, isekai, girl travels to a fantasy world where she gets to play a role in her own drama script, but as a vilain, LOL. Trouble is she's trying to survive and gets the attention of the prince that she wrote in as quite stubborn and he stubbornly fixes on her instead of the FL - costume drama, romcom (very much so), HEA, just in case you were wondering.)

These are based only on being a bit similar to Si Jin. If you want more recs... what are you interested in? :D

She called him ShiJiu though, is that a title not a name?

ETA Drama wiki says his name is Zhou Tian Yu (周天宇)) but doesn't have a page for him. He might be new.

I hope Zhen Heng is about to announce MingYue's promise to Yi's ex, LOL. Just for the laughs.

Yu Jin's kneeling protest (complete with the rain) reminds me of that protest in Moon Lovers LOL, when the FL was kneeling to beg for that woman's life. Now if Jang Si comes to hold an umbrella over him... that would be perfect :D (it won't happen, the rain passed and he's about the pass out too LOL). But still...

Finally all caught up.

The second half is way better than the first - more put together, they all found their acting stride, no more jumping from one plotline to another. I like it a lot.

Maybe you weren't exactly paying attention. Dunno, I don't want to spoil you again. Watch for yourself, right?

She may have been too busy with meeting the other parents who are in. And the school mid-terms or whatever they were might not be included in the rigged exams list - those seemed to be more of the type of exams that would add an extra advantage when trying to enroll in certain universities.

Hey aren't you that person who finds something at fault with every drama under the sun and then some (including this one)? I've seen your comments before.

Please get a life. I'll watch whatever I want to watch, thanks, and I hope you do the same.
