i was peacefully waiting for this drama to end and muting all hasthtag related on twitter to watch it after it…
I’m currently in the same situation as you. But considering the comments, I think I’ll keep going because things may not be as bad as almost everyone is saying. I was pretty scared of another drama’s ending but when I finally decided to watch it, it turned out it wasn’t as sad as they thought. I think it’s worth it.
The Lovers' Bugs are only one of the many pieces of evidence that Tong Hua wrote to drive home the point that Xiao Yao and Xiang Liu loved each other and were each other's soulmates. But you and I agree on one thing, if there was no Jing, she would probably have ended up alone. Jing is the character that gets to be her companion in the end, since she never really addressed her trauma and abandonment issues. Now, is this explicitly considered a happy ending? Not really. It's considered a "non-tragic" ending. Those who get it will get it.
People may choose to turn a blind eye to how the PLB work, and it's their right of course. But the fact remains that she loved Xiang Liu and he loved her. That's all. There's no friendship, there's no one-sided love, and there's no unrequited love. The bugs lived inside their bodies for centuries without turning on any of them and causing their deaths. Only love could get them to remain there for so long. It's romantic love, pure and simple. They are called Lovers' Bugs, not Friends' Bugs.
Now the drama sure did cut off plenty of important details. The 37-year-healing scene, the many intimate moments she had with Xiang Liu, and now the many cuts from season 2. And yet, the essence remains. The novel remains and that's all that matters :)
How come we didn’t see the scene of MCQ in costume!! Was it just for the ost and promotion of the drama?https://youtu.be/r8Gs0PC0d0o?si=oU4PACLVtzf7Ee8uhttps://vm.tiktok.com/ZGeNrLpmK/
This is the scene we were talking about. I'm guessing it really didn't show up in the drama, then 😔
You really need to check all of his other dramas. Especially the older ones where he was just the supporting character…
I’m scared. Everything scares me. 😹🤣 I’ll probably love the ML. I always am left devastated hahah I haven’t watched Lighter and Princess either. I need to finish the 54637357484 dramas I have in my watchlist first.

Also, I saw something about a child? Named Ning Shi San? That’s interesting 🤔
Anyway, judging by some comments, maybe things are not as bad as they seem. Yes? Pretty please? 🤧
