She’s been conditioned all her life to be a people pleaser it takes a lot of time to undo that, if even possible

Okay, that third story was a whirlwind. What a crazy era. The female leads character may come off a bit abrasive. However, she actually does have a very good heart, and is sweet in her own effervescent way. The paring is Ike opposite attract but I can see how these two can complement each other very well. I just wish the ending wasn’t so abrupt. Overall, definitely a worthy watch.

Same here.

So you finishe the first two arc or the whole drama? I’m still on the 3rd arc. I’m actually enjoying it a lot. It’s the most humorous of the three. I agree the first ended rather abruptly but it was the nieces recollection so can only go as far as her interaction. It would be nice to have full closure but sometimes in real life, it’s not possible.

Wait, is Wang duo going to be a baddie again?

I enjoyed reading your review very much. I haven’t finished the third story yet but the first and second have been so good. this is high quality drama. A true hidden gem.

This third arc starting in episode 2122. Surprisingly good. It’s in the 90s and I really feel like I’m in the 90s. The acting, customing, set is superb. Th bgm is also good. It fits with the era.

Second couple (the niece) was also very good. I have not watched the liberation period (1950’s) of china’s history much. Wow, this drama did a fine job giving the audience full immersion in it. What a stifling period. I was crying watching the whole time. So glad I didn’t live through that period of time. Scary. But the romance between the leads managed to survive. Very beautiful and completely different from the first story.

Is it not on Viki anymore?

Wow... just finished ep 10 - it ended with a bang. wow... I am quite impressed with the quality of the drama thus far. The costuming/hair/makeup, the acting, the music & bam. I could feel the tension building up as relationships get strained. Who's good who's bad.. what's right what's wrong. it's a complex time with various ideals and values colliding.

Oh no! Here comes trouble is pretty good. The ml is such a good actor. Hello ghost is a movie he’s in that’s great. Also, Reborn is a drama w/ our ML. But it’s quite painful and heavy like 12 letters.

I dunno. I see it as an alternate ending.

Nope - I think it’s an alternative ending. I did the same but managed to watch the rest. It’s better than her becoming mortal imo

Kinda. It’s complicated. Hahaha but I would say yeas.

yea - the ending was rushed. maybe they ran out of $$? I have no idea. but I am at peace with the ending. not much romance.

ep 26 - wow, I did not expect that to happen. Loved how they had the world continue on... that's reality. And the characters communicated and worked out their conflicts and looked hopefully towards the future. What a nice ending....

ep 26 - yes in the end, the adults got some senses and compromised for the kids' sake. Phew.... seems like in all of this, it was really the wife vs the mil . husband was just a body. hahaha...

But she also has her mom who has offered to help watch the kids which should offset some of the financial burden. I just feel like they put too much weight on the mil’s financial support. It’s like the mil vs the wife (instead of husband vs wife) which to me doesn’t make sense. Also, having $ to hire Nannie’s is not love. It just feels like the justification for granting full custody of twins to husband was purely financial and not about the mental well being of the children. The children are not even close to their grandma.

Dx (the ml) is the real dx. However, when he was kidnapped, his father denied that dx was his son and brought in fxy to fill in as dx. So dx’s sister grew up w/ fxy. Which is why she’s surprised w/ all the things he does that’s like her brother. Later on when dx returned, his father ordered him to take fxy out and kill him, then take back his identity again. Dx instead spared fxy’s life and they made a pact. Fxy would by dx’s eyes in ears in court while he was on the battlefield. They’re supposed to be enemies in public but secretly they are working together to unify the country and restore peace.

Yeah, poj was special
