He just turned 22. Wu Lei had the same "kissblock" in his romance before 21. Just look at his kiss scenes in The Long Ballad with Dilireba. The age difference between the ML and FL might also play a part. WJN is 11 years older than him. It might not matter to Western viewers but the Chinese audience would certainly make a big topic out of it if there were sizzling tongue action. LOLOL. I still pray for it to happen, though. LOLOL

Wear my underwear, wipe with my hanky, and uh...blow my whistle....

I'm rewatching from beginning.

You get to hear her real voice

He couldn’t have just left the tub because theXue family had been targeted as their district has the gold mine. Hee father and brother were going to be killed and the FL would not have run away.

Kissasian is at 47 minutes plus a few secs after opening credits

I will see whether the other platforms use the old version or the new one

School is VERY IMPORTANT in China. The exams are a matter of pride, of going to the nextblevel.

There is no chasing. This is a revenge drama and they were both at the same place for different reasons and the FL took advantage of it to escape her situation. She was a married person with no other thought than revenge at that time; he was after a criminal. The theme of their initial relationship was: "different paths, same destination."

Done!

They drown adulteresses in a pig cage (made from rattan) in those days.

Someone woke up with a stick up her behind this morning.

HAHAHA Shitty Rong he will be to me from now on!

Thank you thank you thank you.

He knows. He just wanted her to TELL him.

If you enjoy "deeper" discussion, a few of us started a thread up in Other Topics of Discussion (titled Episode 35, but we stuck many other mini-thoughts in there) to keep some of our discussions in one place.

LMAO. I read a translation of the episode where they did it. Forgpt which episode, but OMGosh, I wished they followed the book a little bit more than how the drama did it, heh.

Alexasopretty! Nice to see you here again! LOL I've been doing ANOTHER rewatch after Shen Li. Did you see it? It was such a contrast to our TLI. Shen Li's immortals are so much more experienced compared to our young Scooby gang. The reaction, the flirting, the handling of problems and situations (even though there is the I-am-so-powerful-I-MUST-sacrifice-myself theme) are so different, I felt compared to go back to TLI and revisit how the young immortals were so powerless because of their inexperience. I feel like writing another long thesis, bwahaha. Our long thread up in Other Discussions need replenishment!

Yes, there are several interesting things from the book that I’d have loved if they’d been included in the drama. So enjoyed our little discussion. I really like analyzing this show! Cheers!

Glad you enjoyed it. I agree about the Nether Realm addition. It added so much. One thing I'd wished for (besides a better lovey-dovey ending) was more time shown of them in the human world. The very staccatoed one thousand years of suffering was just a repeated line for both our leads (one being reborn and the other helping her over and over and then wiping her memory) and didn't get the viewer's emotional engagement.
