"Honestly, I hadn’t seen your comments :). That’s exactly what I was saying too. Here’s how I see it: generally, this type of dynamic in literature would lead to competition or vengeance if the female/male protagonist doesn’t make any progress. So in this case, by episode 26, I would have removed the romance and kept it as an old relationship — like the example with the sister and the scholar, which I find much more logical.

Besides, I had said that I think the scholar going to play a decisive role in all this… just like the sister with the child, who will also play an important role.

Or the FL should already start moving toward redemption little by little, so that we can sympathize with her.
The right ending would be her helping the family, then leaving the Rong family for good, settling with the ML, and starting her own business from scratch. She would leave the family in the hands of her sisters, especially the sister with her child and her beloved, who would take over the family… that way, she won’t repeat her grandmother’s pattern. And I don’t see the ML going back to the family after everything that happened

Wait, I’m going to go grab the comment, hehe

I don’t agree — everything you describe sounds impressive on mdl :) . But in the series, I wonder: what does she actually do for him?
Step one: he puts himself in danger like the loyal little puppy he is.
Step two: head held high, without even a twitch of expression, she declares — as usual, never actually asking — ‘I need your help.’ !!!!
Step three: cue dramatic music — he drops to his knees, prays to every god he can think of: ‘Thank you, almighty gods, she has allowed me to risk my life for her. Truly, I am the happiest knight-hero in the entire universe

Episode 26:

-What were you talking about?
-None of your business…

No, no, that girl is hopeless. And I believed in her so much… She always treats like a dog the guy who’s constantly helping her. I can’t bring myself to like her. I wanted to understand her, but honestly, at this point…

The six girls and their grandmother are something else… real museum exhibits!!

On one hand, I’m starting to understand that the men were right about them…

How do you say it here? Ah yes — RED FLAG! 🚩
As a protagonist, she struts straight into my Top 10 ‘Most Annoying Female Leads of 2025’.
Bonus points: her sisters join too.

agree!

or he's the one who's going to kill someone

Oh la la… she won’t have any chance after getting married, will she? How are they going to get around that? Unless someone powerful — or her father — declares the marriage null and void?

Boyfriend, depression…etc etc these words are so out of context . And with every 'historical' series, the history just keeps getting more ‘authentic,’hihi

We’ll need to add a new genre called ‘Histowrong’ in the tags and remove ‘Historical

So, is she married or not?

gradually sink into being an antagonist because of this 'blind' girl, and little by little, he will lose his way. At first, I thought it would be because of his own ambitions, but now I think it will be different.

I think Bai Ying Sheng will

Yes, I already wrote in my previous posts that she’s in my top 3 young Chinese actresses. She acts very naturally—which is rare—and she’s radiant

He looks maturefor his age, and mature roles suit him well—especially that general! And he understood the character and portrayed it well.

My theory is that he is either the son or the grandson of the grandmother’s first husband, or possibly that he is the ML’s brother, since we actually know very little about his family???

Magnificent—this drama every day… about the speculations surrounding the monk

The main character is excellent — Within the first 20 minutes, you already understand what kind of person he is; his personality is clearly defined, and he remains very consistent and faithful to that characterization up to episode 8. Bravo to the director, the actor, and the screenwriter (and I won’t even start on the actress — she is absolutely top-tier here !!).

I really love the contrasting atmospheres of the two worlds and how the director worked with them. There are some truly beautiful shots in a cold, bluish color palette, with cinematography that feels as if it were inspired by Hugo Cabret. Some scenes are genuinely very successful — with the moon, the snow, the streets…

The real world, on the other hand, is rendered in orange tones and appears brighter. A major trend this year is the aesthetic of the Republican era in Chinese dramas.

They’re not comparable at all — this one is way better in every aspect In the other project, there was only the male lead and some Instagram-worthy visuals
