The first two episdes hit right in the feels. Incredibly short episodes but the dialogue is on point.
I want a Happy End for them but I can’t even imagine how those two could manage one.

I kept expecting him to drop from sepsis but he had plot armor for sure!

The most fascinating thing is Shen Wenlang feeling violated by this evil omega who forced him into sex… this heat/rut thing goes both ways, apparantly. It’s not like he made a choice to rape Gao Tu or even enjoyed his first time/first heat with an omega.
Still, Hua Yong and Gao Tu felt more in control of their facilities, so to speak, at least in the beginning. And when they made their escape after- why were they less affected?

In a way I feel sorry for all of them, except Hua Yong, resident red flag.

Why did the third couple/brothers-not-brothers get so much airtime in the last episodes? We could have used that time better. Truly, I did not care for the guy who staged an SA+cheating scene to show up again like they were longlost friends.
Other than that, quite a wholesome ending. Love how the doctor found someone who is all hearteyes for him (if not someone who would introduce him as boyfriend to his godparents but whatever).
CC turned into a softie, almost. And it looks like they both found true love. The ending shot was just amazing.

That was happening inside XSs own clinic though, like come on, that wasn’t his fault for stumbling on them.

WSW found all the tonics in the fridge, though, so he knows CC spent *A LOT* of time with his mom. And the hospital told him they couldn’t reach her usual contact… as an only son, I would wonder at a certain point who was taking my mom to all the hospital appointments, paying all those bills for her treatment.

Not picking up the phone when the hospital called and forcing things to come to light that way was actually a smart move by CC. Or he was too emo and missed their calls, we will see. But it allows WSW to be the adult he is.

People don’t have children so they can inherit their house… sons carry on the family name and in some cultures, marry a wife who moves in with them to take care of the household and their parents. A daughter supposedly moves out and becomes part of her husband‘s family while costing dowry. Hence why places like India and China, for example, favor boys over girls and have the demographics to show for it. Things change slowly but a guy who could not afford/attract a wife finding a boy, in the 90ies, would not be a demon for wanting to keep the boy.

It must have been downright traumatizing for the boy to get handed over to a stranger, forced to consider him his dad, change schools, leave behind any friends, the home he grew up in, anything familiar to him, really… they would need so much therapy. Sure, the lawyer got his baby boy back but the boy lost the man he considered his real dad.

And I got so worried when the boy left to buy the back brace or whatever it was. In a show where babies, kids, teenagers get snatched up just like that, I hope all ends well.

He found a male baby in the dumpster and got himself a son (heir). He might have handed over a female baby.

Ultimately, he did right by the boy, worried about giving him a better education and taking care of the boy while in declining health. But I‘m not sure he would have reached out to the police if he had remained healthy.

I was gonna say… He made it sound like they had video sex but then he never even got a kiss to say hello? Just far did they go on that video call?

CY is acting like a stray cat domesticating itself: always showing up at the clinic, leaving food for his person- and now he has even been to XSs apartment. I fully expect him to move in within the next three episodes.

The way I cackled when CY was parked on that bench and XS was bemoaning the fact he wasn’t coming around anymore! Like, sir, your friendly neighbourhood stalker is right there!!!

This 100%. His ex probably told XS he couldn‘t stop himself because he was too horny/into XS. And now to XS, the only reason why CY did nothing is because he doesn’t like him, maybe even doesn’t really think he is attractive, compared to CC. CY has only 12 eps left to convince XS he is good (if scheming) husband material.

Wang Shuo is CCs ex, Meng Tao is the jerk who hurt the doc.

Help me out here, are you surprised a show about a coroner includes corpses or that people in a comment section comment on recent episodes?

People without self control come to comment sections and are then surprised they see comments on recent episodes. Never mind this is based on a novel, anyways.

My wife doesn’t want me to take a concubine and I don’t even get to use a bang maid. What else is a guy supposed to do but go to a brothel and bring home an STD?
Seriously, the men in this family are trash.

Negative reviews by thai fans? There not being a third book is not necessarily a bad thing, they can make up their own story or the author gets more involved.

Has anyone heard them talk about season 3? How is it even possible for them to wrap everything up in just a couple of episodes??

His dad is legit stealing his snakes and is trying to force him into marriage with a(ny) woman and I consider that domineering behavior.

Looks like we fundamentally disagree on stuff. Anyways, I think this is a good point for me to stop here. It‘s been interesting comparing notes on different perspectives. Thanks for the exchange!
