The problem I have with Lan An's betrayal is not even the fact that she chose to betray him to save her daughter. Most people would. The problem is that she was stupid enough to trust TTML. He is someone who has blamed TTJ's mother ever since his mother was killed and by extension hated TTJ and the whole Yue tribe. What in the world made her think he was going to keep whatever promise he made her?

On top of that she didn't seem to feel regret or pretended not to, because according to her TTJ is a worthless and monstrous human being. All that without registering the fact that most people around TTJ who were 'normal' did far more monstrous things, including her.

She made her choice and she died for it. All actions have consequences.

Just like YXW jumping overboard is a consequence of TTJ's actions. As sad as it was that another abandoned him.

Your own opinion and taste is as valid as anyone elses. If you don't like it, then you don't like it. There's no point forcing yourself to like this drama just because the rating is high.

I would advise to give it a fair chance and not base your opinion on the first few episodes. If it fails to impress you after that, then at the very least you won't have regrets.

I'm on episode 6 and all I can say at this point is that the FL has some questionable taste in men.

- Tang Yang = a selfish psychopath
- Tang Huan = an ambitious coward
- Cang Nan = a two faced, spoiled brat
- Cang Qi = a clingy drama queen

Does Bai Yue even have a life? He just follows her around trying to fix her messes left and right.

Most of the characters are caricatures as they only appear when they are required by the plot.

I don't really dislike the FL, but her "innocence" and "naivity" does get old really fast. She's not exactly smart. Her only merit seems to be that she's strong, resilient and good natured. I wish they had given her some intelligence.

By episode 6, the ML doesn't seem to have too much of a presence. As I already mentioned, he shows up to clean up her mess, but otherwise we don't really see a lot of him. Hopefully that will change.

Unfortunately, I must also admit that so far there's not a lot of chemistry between the ML and the FL. Maybe that will change once we get some more scenes of them together.

The FL also doesn't have chemistry with any other of her flings.

The editing could have been better and would have helped the story flow a bit more naturally.

It's not the best thing I have ever seen, but so far it managed to be entertaining enough to continue watching.

Ooooh.... Looks like he gave up and decided to join the demons.

I put BOR on my list as well as BFTB. But I'm waiting for all the episodes to air. To be honest, I'm not expecting any other drama any time soon to be on the same level as TTEOTM. That doesn't mean I won't enjoy them. I like different dramas for different reasons.

I watched 3 out of 4 of these (waiting for BFTB to finish airing). I think the reason why most people choose Tantai Jin is bacause Yingyuan and Youqin both chose responsibility and duties over the FL for the majority of the drama, while Tantai Jin always put Li Susu first. All three, in my opinion, lacked proper care during their childhood. For Yungyuan and Youqin, their duties were pushed on them to the point of breaking. Tantai Jin obviously had a very painful and sad life. So all three would want to give their child the care they didn't receive.

I would personally still choose Tantai Jin, because not only will he give his children the best, but he will always put them and Li Susu first. Even if the world breaks apart.

I've been watching other dramas, but to be honest I'm on the verge of just getting lots of ice cream and rewatching all 40 episodes. Although I might skip Bing Chang and Tian Huan.

MDL and Youtube are ganging up. Youtube keeps recommending TTEOTM content. They found my weak spot

Yeah, I guess I live here now 😂

Hahahahah... I don't know. Seems like the healthy thing to do. Although, obviously I'm not going anywhere. I guess I live here now

I told myself I'll move on from this page when it hits 70K comments. Well.... looks like I'm still here.

Awww .... That's really sweet

Oh. I understand. I was also waiting for SOKP.

That's interesting. And very fitting. Even though I appreciated Tu Shan Jing's devotion to her and I was happy to see her end up with someone who would always put her first, my favourite character was Xiang Liu.

What's wrong with IQiyi?

Hmmm... I never really registered her cousin as the ML. I never even paid that much attention to this character. Thanks for the info. In the novel it seemed like Tu Shan Jing was the ML and Xiang Liu was the SML. It does make sense though that the title is related to her cousin. Even though it kind of matches Xiang Liu as well. Also, she never loved the other two in a romantic way. At least as far as I understood.

They are her fans, so they can't really see it reasonably. For me, her character in the immortal arc could just be cut completely without any loss to the story. We didn't really need to know that she used to be a demon. So we already got more from her performance than was necessary. Her fans should be happy instead.

Plus, it's indeed true that everyone's parts got cut.

I'm not sure why the actors are listed this way, but her love interest in the novel was Tu Shan Jing from the beginning. The other two loved her, but she never loved them the same way. So based on the novel, Tu Shan Jing is the ML not the SML.

Which makes him seem even more like an older brother. Pian Ran seemed like an older sister to Susu instead. The way she took care of her and gave her advice

I suppose there's also the power dynamic. He's more powerful and is basically her boss, so she has to listen to his orders. Also, her scolding seems more like cute outbursts/tantrums.
